Institute. This is about 20 minutes. [applause] we are in kind of an unusual technical situation because craig venter, who is in san diego, hes supposed to be here is ill will something. So i guess lets see if i can just craig, can you hear me . Hes ill with something akin to muteness. Hes looking pretty good. [laughter] craig, can you hear me at all . You think hes scary looking . Hes not scary looking. [laughter] hes just an ill man. Lets see if we can we have a number of backup systems which i suppose we should employ. [laughter] if worse comes to worse, ill just tell you what i think he would have done if i could control him like a puppet. [laughter] all right. Now maybe hes hearing me. Craig, can you hear me . I can, robert. Nice to hear you. All right. We lost you for a bit. So whats wrong with you . [laughter] or. Lets see, i didnt want to leave la jolla sunshine for washington d. C.

Anyone else want to give us a killer idea, maybe something that has already been mentioned once or twice . Maybe not . I think the improper payment act do not pay hold agencies accountable. When you are measuring that its going to hold them accountable to make it a priority. I also think electronic verification at the state level i think it has proven that those death reports are highly accurate and moving in that direction. I would agree with mr. Brune thats prudent and it would allow them to look at other verification processes that perhaps moves resources to those other areas and i go again to verification of family members and funeral homes. We look at some data of 82 corrections in 2012 and 13 and we pulled a small case sample 46 cases. 35 of those cases, those folks were in fact alive but what . 35 of the 45 pieces we looked at. They were erroneously placed in the file. When you look to the source of those reports it was family members and those are typically regarded as being hi
They are not the same people dedicated to producing the light, sweet crude thats produced in the oil sector, for the most part. So if you offer discounts to asian consumers at large so that they become beholden to your type of oil and they build refineries specifically dedicated troo processing your type of oil its going to be harder for them to switch to somebody elses oil down the line. So it makes sense to keep the price a bit lower right now so that asian consumers build up refinery capacity for medium and heavy sour sulphur rich, saudi type oil, and you try and guarantee your market down the road when you will be putting on the brakes and sending prices back up.

And that is that the saudis, the qataris and their friends in the gulf on the sunni side of the aisle have created a monster. By funding rad
Translator people on both sides of the taiwan straits are members of one big family. As long as we continue to adhere to the one china principle and consensus, oppose Taiwan Independence and promote peaceful relations, we will be able to lay more solid foundations for business cooperation. To boost the Economic Cooperation between the two sides, we need to get both wheels in motion. The one well is to enhance institution building, for example, to continue to pursue egg five. The other is for opening up, as far as the mainland is concerned, closer attention will be paid to the investment by taiwan businesspeople on the mainland. Here, i would like to ask you to convey a message to these people, which i believe will prove to be reassuring to them. That is, the mainland will continue to protect local rights and interests of taiwan businesspeople on the mainland and continue to pursue professional policies as appropriate. In terms of opening up, we will give priority to taiwan in terms of
Structure of the constitution was saying that we dont need to enumerate rights because the assumption is you have a right unless a prohibition was created. How would you expand upon it more eloquently sins you teach this stuffs . I think that is an adequate description of the assumptions underlying our constitution, that the assumption was that if congress had limited power, it wouldnt have the ability to infringe rights in the first place. And of course at the time the constitution was ratified, the states were thought to have, because the people are closer to their state governments, you know, states thats the point of federalism, citizens can have more policies and more influence over their state legislatures than the federal government. What role does the decorat n declaration play . The declaration of independent dense is an ex presence of ideals and our desire to be free of england. Its not law, however. The constitution is law.
