Ronald johnson says officers came under heavy gunfire, but those officers did not fire any shots, at least two civilians were wounded though. More than 30 people were arrested, and captain johnson is urging those looking to protest peacefully to do so during the day so police can focus on those committing crimes after hours. Anyone who has been at these protests understands that there is a dangerous dynamic in the night. It allows a small number of violent agitators to hide in the crowd and then attempt to create chaos. The catalysts can be bottles thrown, molotov cocktails and, of course, shots fired. Protesters are peaceful and respectful. Protesters dont clash with police. They dont throw molotov cocktails. So the protests also brought some very scary moments for msnbcs chris hays and craig melvin when protesters began throwing rocks at them from a live report. Reporter weve been out here since the live show at 7 00 p. M. And whoa. Whoa. Hey. Hey. Hey. Watch out, chris. Reporter you know what, that protesters shooting rocks at us. Reporter thats you know what, we are we are telling the true story. Reporter people are angry, man. Theyre really angry. Can you tell us whats going on . Reporter were trying to. Few rocks chucked at us. Were fine. Were fine. So democratic governor jay nixon ordered the National Guard to the city in an attempt to diffuse the violence. He also lifted a curfew that was in effect the previous two nights. President obama announcing attorney general eric holder will held to ferguson tomorrow to oversee the federal investigation of Michael Browns shooting. He also said he will be keeping a close eye on the actions of the National Guard. I spoke to jay nixon about this, expressed an interest in making sure that if, in fact, the National Guard is used it is used in a limited and appropriate way. He described the support role that theyre going to be providing to local Law Enforcement and ill be watching over the next several days to assess whether, in fact, its helping rather than hindering progress in ferguson. Also listen to this. Amnesty international now has 13 observers and organizers on the ground in ferguson. It is the very first time the group has sent that type of Team Anywhere in the united states. Well, now we turn our attention to iraq where president obama is urging iraqs new government to come together after a major victory against Islamic State militants. He praised kurdish and iraqi forces for regaining control of the mosul dam from the militants in conjunction with the airstrike. President obama called it a major step forward. It is the countrys largest dam. It provides water and electricity to northern iraq. President obama said he made it clear to iraqs new Prime Minister that now is the time for iraq to take the lead. My National Security team today and i will say publicly that we want to continue to communicate to politicians of all stripes in iraq, dont think that because we have engaged in airstrikes to protect our people that now is the time to let the foot off the gas and return to the same kind of dysfunction that has so weakened the country generally. Dr. Abadi has said the right things. I was impressed in my conversation with him about his vision for an inclusive government, but theyve got to get this done because the wolfs at the door. Meanwhile, pope francis is speaking out in support of using force against the militants. The pope said one nation should not be acting alone in an apparent reference to the u. S. , but he said he approved of action in iraq to protect religious minorities and said he is considering a visit to northern iraq. And Syrian Forces have launched dozens of airstrikes on Islamic State militants in eastern syria. One strike destroyed a local water plant and militants are in control of 1 3 of that country.

According to the usda a middle income family with one child born in 2013 should expect to shell out about a quarter million bucks, and most of it, 30 , goes toward housing. Thats going to run parents about 73,000. The next single biggest expense is child care and he education followed by food, transportation, health care and clothing. The report also found that Location Matters in all of this. It costs more to raise a child in urban areas. The northeast was the most expensive at 282,000 followed by the west, midwest and then the south. The good news perhaps in all of this, the report says the more children you have, the more costs decline because things like handmedowns and then buying in bulk. So you get a little cost savings there to have more. Today marks ten years since google went public. Can you believe it . By most accounts the initial Public Offering was a disaster. This was the headline in the wall street journal back on august 19th of 2004. At the time the journal wrote, quote, a combination of googles own hubris, stubborn investors and a deteriorating Technology Market transform what was billed as the hottest ipo of the century into a rather messy affair. The companys ipo was priced much lower than expected. Just 85 a share. It has since risen by more than 900 closing yesterday at 582 bucks a share. To mark the tenth anniversary of googles ipo, msnbc compiled a list. The Google Search which has become synonymous with just about any internet search. How often do we hear, lets yahoo that. We know how important google is. We also know there is gmail, youtube, android. You cant win them all. On the list of misses comes google plus, google buzz and google wave. Google wave, whatever that was. Cnbc also included google glass on the list of misses because of privacy concerns like recording people without them knowing about it.

Oats go wow go power oats go go power yayyyy welcome back, everybody. Its time for sports. And in a preseason matchup expected to showcase the quarterback race between the Cleveland BrownsJohnny Manziel and brian hoyer, manziel stole the spotlight but not for the right reasons. In the Third Quarter manziel facing pressure is chased out of the pocket. He tosses an incomplete pass and ends up near the redskins sideline. Apparently words are exchanged. You see right there, he exchanged words with the bench and manziel flips the middle finger while heading back to the huddle. This gesture is a little bit too characteristic of the rookie who has received criticism in the past. As for the game, the redskins win it 2423. That is not you are number one.

Thomas this summer as advertised has been very cool across the country. Areas like pittsburgh, indianapolis have yet to hit 90 degrees. Thats a ridiculous stat. Usually they do it 20 times a summer.

The weather pattern is finally switching. It will remain a little cool in the northeast. The hot weather will be felt all through the southern plains, the southeast and the deep south. Even a little bit there into the ohio valley. This is in the week ahead. For today some of that heat begins to spread into areas like kansas city. 94 today. 94 in atlanta. It will stay hot right through the upcoming weekend. This is how it should be. You expect it like this. Finally summer is going to kick into gear as we go into the last couple of weeks. Not too bad in areas of the northeast. Watch out for storms today around chicago. St. Louis, ferguson area will be hot and steamy. Most of the thunderstorms should avoid whats going on there. We should be watching indianapolis and detroit for storms. It will be a hot week. In st. Louis it will be 95 to 100 right through the upcoming weekend. Will we punch our ticket . It looks like it will be a late summer. All right, bill. Thank you. Coming up at the top of the hour on morning joe, we have the very latest on the overnight violence in ferguson, missouri.

If you want to sound smart, tell your friends that he could face a fine in excess of 10,000 bucks. According to rules they are subject to 11,025 for profanity or unsportsmanlike conduct. He will be allowed to appeal his first fine. Lets huddle around the water cooler. Lewis knows he is my Johnny Manziel number one. I appreciate that. Amazing images from a group of fishermen off the coast of southeast alaska. The group says the sea lion was hiding under its boat because it was being stalked by a killer whale. It left the area and kept the camera rolling and heres what happened next. Oh oh, my god. Holy molly. Do you see that . That killer whale tossed the sea lion 20 feet in the air. The group says were not sure what happened next, but i am thinking that it probably didnt end well for that sea lion. The sea lion got away. It sprung it far enough away that it swam away. Okay. Well just say that. Thats how it ended. Now lets go to a little golf action on late night tv. Rory mcilroy stopped by the tv studio with jimmy fallon. Tiger served as imys caddy.
