The Lifelong Pursuit of Education
An interview with former U.S. Secretary of Education Richard W. Riley
May 2008
Earlier this year, Walden University renamed its College of Education as The Richard W. Riley College of Education and Leadership in honor of former U.S. Secretary of Education Richard W. Riley. Secretary Rileys career accomplishments are perfectly aligned with Waldens mission and its 38-year commitment to educating educators. Secretary Riley is a leading advocate in advancing education as a national priority and has been actively involved with Walden and the Laureate International Universities network for many years. As the nations top education administrator under President Clinton and a former governor of South Carolina, Secretary Riley was and continues to be widely recognized for raising academic standards, improving instruction for the poor and disadvantaged, and expanding access to grant and loan programs to help more Americans pursue higher educationinitiatives that all reflect the pillars of Waldens mission.
In a recent interview, Secretary Riley shared his perspectives on what makes a great teacher, how administrators can best support teachers, and the importance of education as a lifelong pursuit, through the doctorate and beyond.
What differentiates a good teacher from a great teacher?
A good teacher is a professional who knows how to teach, who understands teaching and learning, and can handle teaching in a very good way. A great teacherWalden talks about a scholar-practitionertakes his or her scholarship and teaching capacity and moves forward to another level to provide mentoring for other teachers and to enhance students ability to think creatively. Great teachers help their students develop as strong problem-solvers, becoming teachers themselves. It is most wonderful to watch a great teacher at work.
On a similar note, what differentiates good administrators from great administrators?
It is absolutely critical for good administrators, principals, and superintendents to have good systems. They must be good managers and understand all of the factors that go into growing a system. Really great administrators understand how to improve the system, always keeping the student at the forefront. Great administrators understand the relationship of the school community with teachers, students, and parents. I talk a lot about schools as centers of community; that is very important.
What are the advantages for teachers and administrators who continue their educations?
Education is a roadway, not a destination. You never finish, and you have to appreciate the excitement of the travel. It is so important for good teachers, and certainly great teachers, to continue their education. Number one, teachers with advanced degrees gain respect from the teaching communityfrom fellow educators, from parents and students, and from administrators. More than that, an advanced degree enables you to update your teaching techniques and methods so you can use technology and other new methods as teaching tools to interest and involve students. I am a great supporter of continuing education and advanced degrees.
How do students benefit from teachers and administrators who earn advanced degrees?
Students benefit tremendously from a teacher or administrator who has taken the initiative to pursue an advanced degree. Particularly, they benefit from access to the most up-to-date and current teaching techniques.
What are qualities that teachers and administrators should look for in advanced degree programs?
Certainly, the integration of technology is a factor. Research is also important. You always look for the highest quality program; I am a believer in accreditation. You need to be sure that any program you are going to spend your valuable time on is at an accredited university with a grand reputation. It is important to talk with other professionals who have had the advanced education experience and consult with them about the value of certain programs.
How can school administrators help support teachers bringing technology into the classroom?
Principals and administrators must understand technology themselves. You cannot enhance the use of technology in a school or school district if you do not see the power of knowledge and self-development utilizing technology. Technology is such an important tool to enhance teaching and learning. Administrators must support the acquisition of and training to use up-to-date equipment and technology, just as all of us must support the things that improve the profession and the collegial capacity of our schools. The school environment is so important and those things that make the environment better, such as technology, must be supported.
Can you talk about your recent involvement with the National Commission on Teaching in Americas Future (NCTAF)?
Hear more of Richard W. Rileys perspective on education by viewing his commencement address to Waldens first Class of 2008.
Read about about Richard W. Rileys work as the secretary of the U.S. Department of Education (19932001) and as the governor of South Carolina (19791987).
The commission started some years ago when I was the secretary of education. Former North Carolina Gov. Jim Hunt was involved in it, along with a number of top educators. Some 28 states are now directly involved, and representatives from those states meet annually to talk about how to improve teaching and make it work better. For a few years, the emphasis was on teacher retention. NCTAF believes there would be no shortage of teachers if we did not have such a high dropout rate. Fifty percent of teachers change professions after five years of teaching. We need wonderful places to teach and must work together to keep teachers in the system. During the last few years, NCTAF has advocated for collaborative teachingthat is, you cant put a new teacher in the classroom, close the door and say Go to it. That simply doesnt work. Many teachers are concerned about protecting their classroom space, but we must shift that mentality and realize that teachers must work together and help one anotherespecially quality teachers who must try to raise the quality for other teachers. NCTAF is one of those organizations that really looks at teaching and studies what is working, what is not working, and what can make things better.
What motivated your alliance with Walden University?
One of the reasons I am so proud to be associated closely with Walden is its mission: To provide a diverse community of career professionals with the opportunity to transform themselves as scholar-practitioners so that they may do their part to transform society.

This year, the luxury Italian fashion house teams up with filmmaker Wes Anderson to create "CASTELLO CAVALCANT," an 8-minute film staring Jason Schwartzman and GIada Colagrande set in 1950's Italy. The short piece was shot in Rome and sees Schwartzman playing a race car driver who has a rather unfortunate run-in with a Jesus statue in the small town of Castella Cavalcanti. Drama, intrigue, and twists ensue. Is it a happy ending? Click after the jump to see what fortune has brought to Schwartzman this time.

We need public transportation
Every day, I see elderly people walking down Springhill Road from the Heights Plaza carrying heavy bags of groceries home to Natrona. The other day, I saw a man in his 70s braving the winter wind as he carried his groceries.
This is a sad and terrible situation. Both Natrona and downtown Brackenridge desperately need public transportation.
There are no stores in Natrona that carry necessities and it's the elderly and poor who suffer. People without a car — the young who are poor or the elderly — have no way to get to Natrona Heights for their medical needs. I see women carrying babies up that hill.
I have seen small buses in other towns serving the needs of the community, even if they operate only a few days per week. Why doesn't anyone care about the people of Natrona and Brackenridge? Why doesn't someone provide public transportation so the people can meet their very basic and necessary needs?
ATI-Allegheny Ludlum is building a $1 billion plant between Natrona and Brackenridge. Why don't Harrison Township commissioners and the Brackenridge Council work with Ludlum to support the local residents who need public transportation?

I really like this story, which makes me a little sad when I see how long it's been since you've updated. A Little Princess is probably one of my absolute favorite movies, though I'm sorry to say I've never read the book. I really like all the interaction between the characters and how you keep them true to their personality. Anyway, wonderful job. I hope you plan on continuing this story, but if not, I enjoyed what you wrote nonetheless. Thanks, and good luck in whatever you plan to do. :)
| elnaslave chapter 9 . 4/8/2009
Wow! This is an absolutely amazing story! It has just enough elements of the original story to keep it grounded, yet it goes off in ways that are unique and adventurous. You are pacing the tale extremely well. Not too much happens in one chapter and not too little. Each chapter moves the plot onward or opens new doors to questions and answers just waiting to be discovered. Amazing job. I can't wait to read more!
| Dancing on the Edge chapter 9 . 6/17/2008
This is a very good story, I have not actually seen the movie, although I have read the book. This is very plausable and I love how you make the characters seem real. More elaboration on the specific details would be nice, descriptions of places and new people, I love how you brought Becky into the story and I hope that she finds the father and he gets what's coming to him. Update as soon as you can possibly find the time too. This is a Brilliant story and if you abandon it I will probably send you an angry reveiw on the chapter before this one. Good Luck, Happy Writing!

Food Revolution Day 2014 #FRD2014
Someone said to me in the office the other day that perhaps in the future people will look back at this time in history and compare our current obesity crisis as the same way that we now view the harm that smoking cigarettes causes. "Why did we not do more about educating our children about good food and how to cook it?" we might be saying.

Salzgitter Posts Wider 2013 Loss on Slowdown, Writedowns
Salzgitter AG, Germany's second-largest steelmaker, reported a wider full-year loss as the economic slowdown eroded demand and impairments affected its Peiner Traeger unit.
The loss before taxes grew to 477.8 million euros ($655 million) in 2013 from 29.4 million euros, Salzgitter said today in a statement. Analysts had expected a loss of 484.8 million euros, according to the average of 10 estimates compiled by Bloomberg. Sales fell 11 percent to 9.24 billion euros.
"Increasingly fierce price-led competition in the European market, combined with the drastic capacity underutilization of the large-diameter tubes business, incurred a significant impact on earnings," the company said. "Impairment at Peiner Traeger GmbH, along with non-recurrent restructuring expenses, burdened earnings before taxes in an amount of 240 million euros."
Larger competitor ThyssenKrupp AG earlier this month said quarterly earnings more than doubled, even as its Steel Europe unit recorded a 37 percent slump in profit. Steelmakers including ArcelorMittal, the world's largest, and Asia's Posco have forecast a rebound in consumption of the metal in the U.S. and Europe as an economic recovery boosts demand from industry.
Salzgitter's 25 percent stake in refined copper producer Aurubis AG contributed a 55.4 million euro pretax loss, compared with profit of 55.5 million euros a year earlier.
Lower Saxony
"Aurubis also put pressure on Salzgitter," Ingo-Martin Schachel, an analyst at Commerzbank AG, said by phone from Frankfurt. "I expect that will change from the second quarter."
Salzgitter dropped 1.5 percent to 30.625 euros in Frankfurt trading. The benchmark DAX Index advanced 1.1 percent.
The pretax loss in the three months ended December was 114.8 million euros compared with a profit of 13.2 million euros a year earlier, according to Bloomberg calculations using the full-year and nine-month earnings figures.
Salzgitter, based in the town of the same name, said its 2013 net loss widened to 489.6 million euros from 99.8 million euros. The state of Lower Saxony holds a 26.5 percent stake in the company, which forecast a gain in pretax earnings for this year, nearing break-even, on sales of about 10 billion euros.
The performance in the final quarter of 2013 and the outlook for 2014 were "as expected," Commerzbank's Schachel said.

I stayed here for 3 nights in March 2015. I had a hard time choosing between this B&B and another B&B in Mentone which would have had more gourmet-type breakfast food with homemade jams. Well, I chose Mountain View Inn, and do not regret my choice!! The breakfasts were simple but tasty - just fine - and everything else was SPECTACULAR. From the outside, this home doesn't look like much, but on the inside it is gorgeous and everything is extremely high-end. We stayed in the Suite Sweetheart and loved having a private balcony, a massive jacuzzi with breathtaking views, a king size bed, and a fireplace in our room. I peeked in the other 3 suites and they all looked extremely nice as well. On the final night we were the only ones at the B&B and had the whole place to ourselves, which was great! The innkeeper, Joe, shows up every morning to make breakfast and he's hospitable, warm, and helpful. The panoramic views from the home are worth every penny - I have never stayed anywhere so beautiful.

If you are looking for a perfect getaway place look no further just book "The View" or The Nook. Paul and Carolyn were so inviting but not pushy. They truly desired for your stay to be just what you wanted it to be. The breakfast was delicious plus an unexpected afternoon snack was scrumptious. The view is truly spectacular, the room is gorgeously decorated but most important comfy. We are returning home refreshed and thankful for the two days.

We were able to book just one night (10 Nov '12), and the Mountain View Inn and owners Paul and Carolyn surpassed our every expectation. Beautiful panoramic, pastoral mountainviewsetting (we were above thevalley clouds), lovely pine cabin suite accomodations, and very quiet. Carolyn surprised us with a delicous rasberry bar snack for the afternoon, and cooked a scrumptous hot breakfast the next morning. We'll be back, and plan to give get-away weekend gifts to our kids.

Where'd This Phase II Cutaway Come From...?

I'm really not aware that that is where Matt Jefferies suggested it to be.
On the contrary I'm rather confident that the vertical shaft connecting engineering and saucer hull had been considered by MJ to be a power line (and not a turbo shaft) as early as the TOS schematic in the bridge alcove.
There's also a Phase II pre-production sketch (where did I misplace that?
) that clearly shows the "Mike Minor" reaction pods in the bow of the engineering hull and hints the vertical intermix chamber coil we'd come to see in TMP.
I did contact Andrew Probert on the issue. He wrote me back that the vertical intermix shaft was already there we he joined the production. He couldn't say whether this had been a Mike Minor or Matt Jefferies idea but given the match with the supposed "turbo shaft" I think it was really MJ who put it there.

I've been involved in photography since I was 8 or 9. My parents had a darkroom, so it was natural to spend time there. Developed roll film with the old 'apron' tanks. (My first role successfully put the 620 backing paper in the apron and left the film on the floor! As someone said earlier, it was downhill from there.
At various times I did photo jobs for compensation, worked for awhile as an in-house photo technician for a cosmetics company, did some weddings and portraits as a side line. I finally stabilized on a non-photo job for 30 years. Recently retired and plan to spend more time shooting and in the dark. Took two workshop classes, the rest was self taught. Most recent class was a workshop with Cole Weston - a fabulous experience to meet him, hear him talk about his father, and see many original Weston prints up close ouside of a museum.
I use a range of equipment, 35mm (old Nikons), 6x6 - an old Hasselblad 500c set up with 4 lenses, a 4x5 Calumet (cc402) with 4 lenses, and built a Bender Kit 8x10 which has a venerable 12/19/25 Turner Reich (restored by S.K. Grimes). My B&W darkroom can handle up to 4x5 for enlarging. The 8x10 is for contact prints only. I do color snaps in 35, but medium and large format is for black and white prints (fiber base paper, archival processed and often lightly selenium toned).
I currently live in California...and though I plan a move soon, I'm planning to move to the coast where I can photograph all the rocks, surf, twisted trees and all to my hearts content.

Haley: No Way SC guv reminds Stephen he didn't know the Palmetto State's drink By Mark Russell, Newser Staff Posted Dec 7, 2012 10:13 AM CST | Updated Dec 7, 2012 11:51 AM CST STORY COMMENTS (20) (Newser) – Who could take over Jim DeMint's Senate seat at the end of the year? Conservatives are talking Rep. Tim Scott, but another South Carolinian has thrown his rather high-profile hat into the ring: one Stephen Colbert, reports the New York Post. Colbert dedicated a segment of his show last night to less-than-subtly suggesting himself, and encouraged his 4 million followers to tell Gov. Nikki Haley to pick him, noting, "I wouldn't just block legislation, I'd bodycheck it!" "Stephen is honored by the groundswell of support from the Palmetto State and looks forward to Governor Haley's call," says a Colbert publicist. Sure, Colbert would face a lot of resistance from more, uh, enthusiastic Republicans—Madeleine Morgenstern, for example, called Colbert a "bombastic, faux-conservative," notes the Week. But Colbert is a strong Catholic who loves Richard Nixon, says the Atlantic, which proclaims him "vastly overqualified." Even so, he shouldn't hold his breath: Nikki Haley swung back via Facebook today, reports CNN: "Stephen, thank you for your interest in South Carolina's US Senate seat and for the thousands of tweets you and your fans sent me," she said. But: "You forget one thing, my friend. You didn't know our state drink. Big, big mistake." Got milk, Stephen? Here's the exchange.

France's decision to carry out a military intervention in Mali after Islamist groups took control of parts of the country while for the past two years the international community has remained indecisive over the Syrian civil war has prompted Turkish columnists to compare the situation in both countries and ask why the international community has turned a blind eye to Syria.
Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan also recently criticized the West for remaining uninvolved in the Syrian crisis, saying: "Why don't they go to Syria? Because there is neither oil nor gold there. There are only people fighting for their freedom." This is important, but not the only reason, columnists argue.
Sedat Laçiner from Star says what upsets Turkey most about the Mali intervention is that while the West selfishly avoids its responsibilities regarding the Syrian crisis and waits for the perfect time for its interests before intervening, it did not hesitate to take action in Mali. It is inconceivable that Syrian opposition groups are left without support in the face of a criminal regime while the West rushes to save Mali, he says.
However, Milliyet columnist Sami Kohen in his article compares the situations in Syria and Mali and says one can come across striking contrasts between the two cases. The first difference that pops into our head is that there are valuable resources of uranium and gold in Mali to which France does not want to risk losing access. There are no such resources in Syria and so no country dares to get involved in the conflict just to save the lives of Syrians.
And yet, Kohen says, this reason by itself is not enough to explain the French intervention. Firstly, the Mali government was the one requesting UN support for its struggle against separatist groups, whereas the Syrian government has made no such request. On the contrary, the regime in Syria fiercely opposes foreign intervention. Secondly, Russia and China support the UN decision to support the intervention in Mali, whereas in the case of Syria, there is no such consensus among UN members. Thirdly, the military operation in Mali is being carried out against separatist groups. If a military operation is carried out in Syria, on the other hand, it will be against a well-equipped Syrian army. In addition, there is the probability that Syrian regime forces will use chemical weapons. Also, though Syria has no natural resources, it is a country with geostrategic importance in the Middle East, which is why Russia and Iran support the regime in the first place. More reasons can be added to the list, but it is a fact that a country never gets involved in the issues of another country purely out of humanitarian concerns. It is always about interests, the columnist notes.

My work embodies both the abstract and representational and comes originally from the idea of community. The towns and structures we build and the way we shape and neglect the natural and urbanised landscape. In my pictures there is a melancholy a trace of something already lost and I try to recapture that moment in time.

First, I didn't mean to imply that there is a trade-off. There are just different ways to skin a cat. My stating that way was a mistake, I should have said something else. Just to clarify my thought pattern in this matter, on this subject we are looking at 1 process, or element, out of several. If 3 identical exposures are made of the same normal scene, the effects of agitation can be easily seen. With your normal agitation the scene appears correct. With a decrease, the contrast is decreased, and the opposite holds true with an increase. When all 3 are printed, the results are visible, and to get the same print from each, printing controls are used. In most cases, we determine our own normals based on our work and vision. Your normal may not for someone like me, without the experience to make it work.
At each step, deviations can be, and are, made to compensate for what we desire in our print. These deviations are based on the scene and our tools, which includes our knowledge. A scene with a longer or shorter scale, one that exceeds our vision, we resort to controls at every stage. Dodging, burning, and grades of printing can be used, expansion and contraction in the negative when developing, and even filters during exposure are tools that deviate from consistent methods.
I was just positing that this is another tool in our box, basing our choice where we are inconsistent, or vary our approach. Based on David's question, I would assume that there are too many factors for a one for all approach, that's just my thought. Of course, it's easier in sheet film when developing only 1 shot, as my values are often outside the ranges for that method.
And, cliveh, your photos are magnificent, so whatever is working for you, don't change!

The Recreation phone has been very busy this month taking reservations for pavilion rentals in Marcellus Park. People have been renting for family reunions, graduation parties, weddings, business functions and class reunions. Some weekends are already booked. Last year we added the Playground Pavilion.

We also will be opening up the renovated Welcome Center. The Welcome Center has a small kitchen area, seating for 30-40 people, plus an outside patio with 2 picnic tables and a fire box. The Welcome Center is a year-round facility for small functions such as birthday parties, bridal and baby showers and small family parties.
There will also be a newly remodeled handicap bathroom. We have several bookings already for this summer.
The 2010 One Day Trip Packets are now available at the Town Hall, Village Office, PEACE Luncheon and Marcellus Library. Our first trip will take place on Wednesday May 26th. We will be traveling to Niagara Falls to hop aboard the Maid of the Mist. We will enjoy lunch at the Top of the Falls Restaurant and then tour Niagara Falls State Park in the comfort of the Niagara Falls Scenic Trolley. Registration for this trip ends on April 16 and is filling up quickly.
Our yearly overnight trip for 2010 will be to beautiful Vermont. The trip will take place September 14 through Sept. 17. This 4 day, 3 night adventure is open to all area adults.

Was 29 degrees here in NE Ohio but got in a beautiful 44 miles on the Giro this morning. The Meta is still to new to want to take it out when there may be salt on the roads.
Let's try this again. The Meta is faster but I don't know if there is a more comfy ride then the Giro.
Have done century's on both. The Meta is definitely faster.
This is from Dr. Mercolas website. Think it's some of the same study as Terex posted.
I recommend a hitch mount. Had Uhaul install a receiver. $127 installed. Swagman XTC for $210. Simple, light and strong and no more dickin around with roof racks.

Works great. I have this setup on one of my road bikes. 11-32 with a Deore RD and a 46/34 chainring. I like it a lot. I am not that cadence sensitive so the gaps are a non issue to me.
Love my triple. The whole shifting thing is nonsense. I run a bar end shifter on my front dérailleur and it gives me infinite trim and perfect front shifting.

Good god. I imagine your sorry you ever posted this question. Never seen so many defensive responses. I too have found comfort in higher bar position.

Neal Stephenson enjoys cult status among science fiction fans and techie types thanks to Snow Crash, which so completely redefined conventional notions of the high-tech future that it became a self-fulfilling prophecy. But if his cyberpunk classic was big, Cryptonomicon is huge... gargantuan... massive, not just in size (a hefty 918 pages including appendices) but in scope and appeal. It's the hip, readable heir to Gravity's Rainbow and the Illuminatus trilogy. And it's only the first of a proposed series--for more information, read our interview with Stephenson.
Cryptonomicon zooms all over the world, careening conspiratorially back and forth between two time periods--World War II and the present. Our 1940s heroes are the brilliant mathematician Lawrence Waterhouse, cryptanalyst extraordinaire, and gung ho, morphine-addicted marine Bobby Shaftoe. They're part of Detachment 2702, an Allied group trying to break Axis communication codes while simultaneously preventing the enemy from figuring out that their codes have been broken. Their job boils down to layer upon layer of deception. Dr. Alan Turing is also a member of 2702, and he explains the unit's strange workings to Waterhouse. "When we want to sink a convoy, we send out an observation plane first.... Of course, to observe is not its real duty--we already know exactly where the convoy is. Its real duty is to be observed.... Then, when we come round and sink them, the Germans will not find it suspicious."
All of this secrecy resonates in the present-day story line, in which the grandchildren of the WWII heroes--inimitable programming geek Randy Waterhouse and the lovely and powerful Amy Shaftoe--team up to help create an offshore data haven in Southeast Asia and maybe uncover some gold once destined for Nazi coffers. To top off the paranoiac tone of the book, the mysterious Enoch Root, key member of Detachment 2702 and the Societas Eruditorum, pops up with an unbreakable encryption scheme left over from WWII to befuddle the 1990s protagonists with conspiratorial ties.
Cryptonomicon is vintage Stephenson from start to finish: short on plot, but long on detail so precise it's exhausting. Every page has a math problem, a quotable in-joke, an amazing idea, or a bit of sharp prose. Cryptonomicon is also packed with truly weird characters, funky tech, and crypto--all the crypto you'll ever need, in fact, not to mention all the computer jargon of the moment. A word to the wise: if you read this book in one sitting, you may die of information overload (and starvation). --Therese Littleton
Computer expert Randy Waterhouse spearheads a movement to create a safe haven for data in a world where information equals power and big business and government seek to control the flow of knowledge. His ambitions collide with a top-secret conspiracy with links to the encryption wars of World War II and his grandfather's work in preventing the Nazis from discovering that the Allies had cracked their supposedly unbreakable Enigma code. The author of Snow Crash (LJ 4/1/92) focuses his eclectic vision on a story of epic proportions, encompassing both the beginnings of information technology in the 1940s and the blossoming of the present cybertech revolution. Stephenson's freewheeling prose and ironic voice lend a sense of familiarity to a story that transcends the genre and demands a wide readership among fans of technothrillers as well as a general audience. Highly recommended.

Politics Counts
Foreign Policy
I hope that Obama will address the use of toxic elements in the products made in China. Dry wall in houses, baby milk, pet food, camium in metals, pigments, and glazes.
Cadmium, not camium.
Tay, stop it with asking what our Big Daddy President is going to do about anything...Obama has no power to do anything. We need to enforce the laws already on the books concerning the importation of trade goods that contain dangerous chemicals.
And think twice about whether you need that piece chinese carp before you buy it.
The role of gonvernment is not to make you feel good or safe, a little individual responsibility is in order here.
We refused to talk and to deal with
the extremists until 9/11 and I am afraid
we are on the same path regarding
issues with china. The sooner we talk
and engage the more effective we will
be. (Don't get me wrong, I am comparing
Chinese to the extremists, I am comparing
the stretagy).
News Flash - China IS the world's dominant power. Economically and militarily. They have been working towards this for some time. It is a done deal.
China will not be the dominant power in twenty years, because China has limited births to one child per family for the last thirty years. In 2050 China will have only 2.2 workers for each person over 65. China will become a rapidly aging country starting in about ten years and that will put a tremendous strain on China's economy. Google "China's aging population" to see what problems China faces in the net 30 - 40 years.
Ask the same 1000 adults to name two reasons why the US will take a back seat to China, and they won't be able to. Inferiority and superiority complexes are as much about beliefs and emotions as about facts. The US is in a weakened state now, bruised by a 2+ year recession, lost jobs, two wars without conclusive ends, and the cumulative effects of a decade's worth of the erosion of American prestige and moral authority. Who wouldn't be generally pessimistic? But the same adults probably know next to zero about China and its own internal challenges. All this survey reveals is that Americans are feeling mopey. This is why polls are junk.
In 1995, the 20 year horizon would have brought us to 2015, and US will keep its dominance till 2015. In the current poll, people are looking till 2030. We should seriously look at what we have done in the last 15 years (politically, economically, and socially), and compare it with that of China, which is catching up fast - and also see what we need to rectify. It is clear that status-quo will not leas us anywhere
The greatest trick the devil ever performed was to convince everyone he did not exist ( The Usual Suspects ). We are in a life or death economic struggle with China, but China won't tell us. Why ? Because if we woke up and recognized this struggle, it would certainly get our competitive juices flowing.
China's leaders all hold degrees in engineering ( electrical , chemical, structural, etc), who our leaders are, for the most part, lawyers lacking experience in running a business. We are in serious trouble
How about the USA stops subsidizing China to the tune of $200 billion year through the trade deficit with China?
How about stop exporting American technology to China?
according to the Peterson Institute for International Economics, China has already overtaken the US by purchasing power...
China is working in the background to supplant the U.S. dollar as the worlds reserve currency...they are well aware that this would destroy the dollars value entirely, and plunge the U.S. into economic chaos, literally destroying the country & inducing anarchy in our cities...complete collapse.
We are already at war. Multinational corporate powers have already put their money on China, and are helping them crush us, by transferring production and industry to China while abandoning the U.S.
We can still stop them, but we MUST demand that our government institute tariffs, not just on China, but on any country where the standard of living and the environmental protections are not similar to our own.
We have to stop this race to the bottom for workers and their standard of living, forcing them to compete to see who will live the worst life for the most hours of work.
Call your representatives, and vote against them if they will not fight for reinstating American tariffs. Bring our jobs back to America!
Maybe some leaders should start reading SUN TZU and put it to some use........the US have been stirred for some time and they have reacted (long ago) by advancing, when they should have not!
The US had the HIGH ground and have all but given it up, hence they are on death ground and must fight.
ATMO the relationship is one of necessity, unfortunately the "smart money" went offshore long ago, in
pursuit of price earnings ratio.
Only via protectionism, will the US be able return to it's previous place of high ground, in the short term.
I beleive many in the US would also advocate this, in particular, those unemployed and the victims of the financial fallout of 2008.
The "Smart Money", may also be hedging that high ground for the US may only be around the corner, if burgeoning middle class inflation continues to run riot. There is also the cost of the one child policy, where
one couple have the responsibility of caring for 6 Adults as they age. Apparently the number of Chinese
citizens >60yo this year numbers >150m with it to grow to >250m in 10yrs. The burden of population size is enormous!
With due respect to a previous post, who can argue whether degrees make for better leaders.
History tells us the worlds greatest leaders, where men of vision and had capacity to empower
the populous. They were "ground breakers", not necessarily followers - education has it's place,
but does not necessarily mean, greater leadership is born out of education - great leaders are
visionaries and dogmatic, self educated with acute awareness of current situations, both long and
short term.
The Chinese have a buy and hold strategy.......are prepared to wait. How long is the US prepared
to wait, while the Chinese do as they will?
Bottom line is - when you sellout, you'd better have the counter punch ready - Frazier Style!
There are several factors that contributed to America's decline and here are just some of those :
1) To compete, students must be good in math & science. We all agree with that. But our public school systems are ALL hijacked by UNIONS for better pays but no better "performance".
2) To compete, our products must be produced cost-effectively. Our manufacturers LEFT USA to find places where the COST is least in making the same products so that their shareholders can continue to invest and get DIVIDENDS. CEO's therefore must move to WHEREVER they can REDUCE costs of manufacturing. So far, it has been CHINA, but it was OUR CEO's decisions, not CHINA's decision to MOVE our factories. And do you wonder WHY our CEO's went to China ? Because CHINESE workers only charge 1/10 of our American workers to produce the SAME THING ! If some Sri Lankens can produce at 1/10 of the Chinese workers, guess where our CEO will go next ? Back to America ?? LOL. So the question becomes, WHY is it that our labor costs are so HIGH ?? Does UNION have anything to do with it ? You might find the answer if you go back a decade or so and take a look at what those "regularly held" UAW strikes were ALL ABOUT against the GM, FORD and CHRYSLER. Those GM retirees got benefits from their companies that you could ONLY DREAM of now.
Conclusion : get rid of ALL UNIONS in America, then we may have a competitive edge if it is not too late now.
If anyone's been following the military annual report, they would've notice that they describe China's military power as "hide their capabilities and bide their time"
well, that's not just military-wise..China's hiding at every aspects and maybe they feel it's time to be who they really are..

For years, a birdlike dinosaur that stood some 7 feet tall and weighed around 500 pounds has been called the chicken from hell. But now scientists have given it a more dignified moniker: Anzu wylei (AN-zoo WY-lee-eye).
That refers to a mythological feathered demon, plus the name of a museum trustee's grandson. Scientists picked it only after finding out that the phrase "chicken from hell" doesn't make a very pronounceable name in Latin or Greek.
The researchers revealed the name Wednesday in the journal PLOS ONE. Anzu lived some 66 million to 68 million years ago in western North America. A replica of its skeleton is on display at the Carnegie Museum of Natural History in Pittsburgh.

On a Tuesday night that saw delays and some postponements because of snow in the Northeast, there were exciting results across lacrosse.
Two games were considered upsets, but on second glance shouldn't be too surprising. First, St. John's beat Hofstra 7-6. It was St. John's first win against Hofstra, but the Red Storm have had a habit of beating ranked teams: It was their fourth win over a ranked foe in the past two years.
No. 2 Cornell fell later in the night, 9-8, in a snow-delayed contest with Bucknell. The Bison have been quietly building an impressive resume; the win against the Big Red was their sixth straight. Mark Dixon, in his Tuesday piece, smartly highlighted Bucknell.
Other games included Syracuse cruising past Providence, Towson beating UMBC, Fairfield edging Quinnipiac and Penn State's win over Binghamton.
Then on Wednesday, Notre Dame's defense kept Ohio State in check, holding the Buckeyes scoreless for more than 45 minutes in a 9-4 victory in South Bend. In D.C., Georgetown welcomed Loyola, which had Josh Hawkins back in the lineup. Mike Sawyer was out, but his replacement, Zach Herreweyers kept up his stellar play with four goals. On national TV, UMass' Will Manny had a hat trick to beat Lehigh.
Notre Dame 9, Ohio State 4
SOUTH BEND, Ind. — Just three days removed from an exhausting 13-12 overtime win over No. 5 Denver at Mile High Stadium, one might have expected that trip to altitude to slow down No. 3 Notre Dame in their midweek matchup against No. 8 Ohio State at home. However, Irish coach Kevin Corrigan's team not only played its best first half of the season, but also built off that win over the Pioneers to help shut down the Buckeyes in a 9-4 victory.
"We really benefitted from the fact that we played Denver on Saturday, because they're both similar in their styles, and very good offensively," Corrigan said.
After getting exposed by Denver's offense, the Irish defense held Ohio State (5-2, 0-1 ECAC) — which averaged nearly 12 goals per game coming in — to just one goal through three quarters. The Buckeyes were unable to penetrate inside through dodges or passes, and were called for several early stall warnings, forcing them to take long shots that were gobbled up by Irish senior goaltender John Kemp.
Last year, the Irish (5-1) led the nation with a goals against average of 6.3, but this year that number had ballooned to nearly 9. Wednesday's game was a return to Notre Dame's defensive culture, most visible through a shot clock violation the defense forced in the first quarter — which was elicited louder cheers on the Irish sideline than most goals.
"We take great pride in the way we play defense," Corrigan said. "They played well, and John Kemp was sensational today. They had some great chances, and he took them away."
Bolstered by their defense, the Irish ripped off a 5-0 run to end the first half, with freshman Matt Kavanagh leading the way. In addition to his two goals and two assists, Corrigan was quick to praise the 5-foot-8 attackman's feel for the game, and great positioning and hustle on everything from cuts to chasing shots.
"Matt is terrific," Corrigan said. "He knows how a play is moving. When the offense is moving, Matt's going to find himself in spots to make plays, and puts himself in the middle of things.
He's my canary in the coal mine, because if he's scoring points, I know we're playing good offense."
The Buckeyes fired back in the second half though, and were kept in the game through the third quarter by the outstanding play of junior Greg Dutton in goal. The Irish took 15 shots in the third stanza, but Dutton stood on his head to keep the Irish off the board.
And after struggling offensively all afternoon, Ohio State finally found success — and three goals — when forced to rush in the final quarter, something Buckeyes coach Nick Myers said will be a lesson to take forward.
"We weren't getting shots off quickly in the first half – we were a little hesitant," he said. "In the fourth quarter we played a little faster and had a little more urgency, knowing that we were down, and that helped us break down their defense."
Speaking of rushing, the Buckeyes will have little time to adjust and prepare before heading to take on conference foe Bellarmine on Saturday.
"We're 0-1 in the ECAC, and Bellarmine is off to a great start. They have a great goalie and a great defense, so we have a short time to go home, head to Louisville, and get ready to compete."
After opening the season with six straight games against top-10 opponents, Notre Dame opens its Big East schedule on Sunday at Rutgers.
— Jack Hefferon
Bucknell 9, Cornell 8
Prior to Tuesday night, the Cornell men's lacrosse team was starting to look untouchable — especially after recent wins over Virginia and Yale.
Somebody forgot to tell No. 16 Bucknell, though. Chase Bailey's goal with one minute left gave the Bison a 9-8 upset win over No. 2 Cornell in front of thrilled, yet frozen, fans in Ithaca, N.Y. It was Bucknell's sixth straight win, with the only loss coming in mid-February against Mount St. Mary's
For the beginning of Tuesday's match-up with Bucknell, Cornell's trend of dominance looked like it would continue. Sandwiched in around a half-hour snow delay, the Big Red opened a 5-0 lead to start the game. Cornell got markers from Matt Donovan, Dan Lintner and two goals from Rob Pannell. Steve Mock, who has a team-high 20 goals this season, did not play. He was banged up from last week's game against Yale and the team wanted to rest him.
The Bisons weren't ready to lay down in the snow and give up, though. They outscored Cornell 5-2 in the second half. The second half was much more of a defensive struggle than the first. The weather started to clear up and the field conditions were as good as they could get, and both teams were finally playing their game.
The teams went back and forth with Bucknell tying the game for the first time at the 3:20 mark of the third quarter. Cornell retook the lead several times, but never again got more than a one-goal lead.
Bucknell's season goal-scoring leader Thomas Flibotte gave the Bison their first lead at the 7:12 mark. On the man-up, Peter Burke found Flibotte, who wristed a shot past Cornell goalie AJ Fiore. Cornell returned the favor with a great individual effort from Max Van Bourdonien. His shot beat Bucknell goalkeeper Kyle Feeney, but it hit the pipe and bounced out. He grabbed his own rebound and bounced a shot past the goaltender as he was falling to the ground.
That was the last goal the Big Red would get.
Bailey's tally with a minute left led to a wild flurry of action on both ends of the field. As the seconds ticked away, Bucknell's Feeney threw the ball the length of the field to try to run out the clock and a Cornell defender caught the ball and threw it back, barely missing the empty Bucknell net.
Cornell got goals from six different players. Pannell led the Big Red with two goals and two assists. He's now one point behind Mike French for No. 1 all-time in points at Cornell. He will most likely tie and break the record on Saturday when Cornell welcomes Penn to Schoellkopf Field. Bucknell, which will surely move high up the rankings, will be visiting Albany on Saturday.
Towson 12, UMBC 9
It was a tale of two players as Towson beat UMBC 12-9 in Catonsville, Md., on the back of a seven-goal, three-assist performance from junior attackman Thomas DeNapoli and a 15-save night from senior goalie Andrew Wascavage.
With the win, the Tigers move to 4-5 with CAA play beginning Friday night at Delaware. The Retrievers fall to 2-5 with Mount St. Mary's coming to town Saturday before America East play starts at Hartford March 30.
For Towson, the win was a gut-check, come-from-behind W that included overcoming a significant face-off deficit — UMBC's Phil Poe won 7-8 in the first quarter and finished 15-25 on the night — and groundball edge, as the Tigers only picked up five of 17 loosies in the opening frame.
Wascavage was the difference in the first quarter, however, making six saves, including a stop on man-up and another with 17 seconds to go that prevented UMBC from getting a dreaded last-minute-of-a-quarter goal.
For coach Shawn Nadelen, outside of the two breakout performances he can take away the toughness his team showed in erasing multiple two-goal deficits in the first half.
"Our defense, which wasn't good in the first half — we were good schematically in six on six, but when the ball hit the ground we were awful — that's where coach Cocchi laced into them at halftime and they woke up," Nadelen said. "We still weren't very clean, but they responded, took bodies and got the ball quite a bit."
Offensively, the answer was DeNapoli, who said he felt good with his shooting in pregame, but really got going with two cross-crease dunks in the second quarter, part of his five-goal first half outburst. In the second half, he looked like LeBron James, waving off picks, running through doubles and slides and stepping back to find the open man.
Already having solidified a career night, DeNapoli showed he was on another level with 8:41 when he drove the right pipe, drew a slide, stepped back and found Cory Dobyns on the wing for an easy finish and a 10-8 lead.
"I think the guys realized they needed to bring a little bit more," Nadelen said. "Thomas ran through a lot of checks to get his shot, kept his head up and when they threw a lot of bodies at him, he got a couple assists."
UMBC looked like it had the necessary answers for Wascavage and DeNapoli in the first half, particularly as freshman middie Pat Young put up three goals an assist. He left the game after two runs in the second half, apparently injuring his right leg on his third goal and limping through. Coach Don Zimmerman said postgame that he thought it was cramps.
From there, the Retrievers struggled to create offense, and struggled even more shooting the bal; though they got 10-18 shots on cage, they were only able to muster two goals.
"Last year, I think the goalie had a career high against us and we talked about it, and said 'This is where you need to shoot,'" Zimmerman said. "When the pressure was on, we didn't, we shot the ball to his strengths. You can't do that, you have to be disciplined in your shooting."
Syracuse 19, Providence 8
The Syracuse Orange dominated the Providence College Friars on Tuesday, 19-8, in Rhode Island in the Orange's first appearance at Providence in school history.
The Orange were outstanding throughout the game with a balanced attack that saw 11 different players score a goal, with Henry Schoonmaker leading the team with three goals. "We really needed him to break out and it was good to see," coach John Desko said.
Syracuse made a change in goal with junior Dominic Lamolinara starting between the pipes. He was outstanding early in the game, making 11 saves on 16 shots before being lifted in the fourth quarter as SU started to rotate in some of the bench players.
"Dominic gave us a spark in the second half against Hopkins, and he played well tonight." Desko said, coming short of declaring him the team's starter. "We will see who does the best in practice to see who starts in the next game."
Lamolinara gave credit to his defense for his strong performance in the cage. "Brian Megill helped out immensely during the game with some of the defensive calls. The cold weather cracked my voice and Megill was able to bark out some of them."
The Friars dropped to 5-2 on the year and 0-2 in Big East play. Friars head coach Chris Gabrielli wasn't impressed with the start of the game by the Friars, as they scored the first goal of the game but gave up six straight goals to end the first quarter.
"If you look at the box score, we were right with the Orange, but the biggest issue was the amount of penalties that we took. It gave Syracuse the ability to get on a nice run and pull away from us in the first half."
Syracuse moves on to face Villanova and Providence will play Siena.
Tufts 7, Stevenson 6
With Stevenson coach Paul Cantabene making his players off-limits after Tuesday night's 7-6 loss to No. 9 Tufts at Mustang Stadium in Owings Mills, this postscript will be briefer than usual.
But brevity probably won't be an issue for the Mustangs (6-1), who will have a lot to review before Saturday's home contest against Hood.
The 24 turnovers committed were the second-most this season behind 26 in 19-3 demolition of Elizabethtown last Saturday. The offense's shooting percentage of 15 percent (6-of-40) was a season low. And the faceoff unit lost more draws than it won for the first time this year.
Cantabene said the setback to a Jumbos team (2-2) that was playing with its full complement of players for only the second time this season should serve as a wake-up call for Stevenson, which has been widely regarded as a serious national title contender.
"I certainly hope so with the mistakes we made on offense," he said. "Those guys have got to get a little tougher and understand what we're trying to do if we want to play the way we can. They didn't do that. So hopefully, those guys come ready to practice [Wednesday] and are ready to go."
Other notes:
— The loss drops the Mustangs from the ranks of the unbeaten, but with at least 10 more games on the regular-season schedule, expecting them to go undefeated might have been a stretch. But Cantabene said lodging a perfect record was not a priority for the program. "I think we're fine," he said. "I just think we didn't pay attention to our detail and our scouting reports and do what we expected to do. That's a little disappointing, especially for some of our older guys who I don't think were as sharp as they should've been."
— As mentioned above, the faceoff unit lost more draws than it won against Tufts for the first time this spring. Sophomore Sam Wyatt, who had entered the Tuesday night with a 67.6 percentage (71-of-105), dipped to 36.4 percent (4-of-11) and junior Brent Hiken, who had won 74.2 percent (23-of-31), managed just 33.3 percent (2-of-6). Meanwhile, Jumbos senior Brian Ruggiero won 64.7 percent (11-of-17) after winning just 38.5 percent (25-of-65) prior to the game. But Cantabene expressed little worry about Wyatt. "Sam's been on such a roll on faceoffs, and sometimes it's matchups," Cantabene said. "Some days, you win them all and some days, you don't. He's had a great season, and he'll continue to be great. The kid did a good job and grounded out some faceoffs. There were a few 50-50s that they kind of came up with. But that's part of the sport. Sometimes you win them and sometimes you don't and sometimes the worst guy in the world beats the best. We'll get better."
