Thanks so much, kathleen, and welcome, everyone. Its great to see you all this morning. Thank you for attending todays first of two summits on innovation in education. And a special thanks to all of you who are going to present this morning. Were excited and grateful to have so much knowledge and expertise in one room, and i know were eager to hear from all of you. I want to say a quick word about the focus on innovation. This year, i embarked on a rethink school tour where we visited learning environments and institution that are taking creative approaches to education for students of all ages. I continue to travel the country to see the great work thats being done, and ive been inspired by the innovative educators and administrators ive met thus far, but theres still not enough. We need more like them and like you. The reality is that there are a number of challenges and opportunities facing Higher Education, and washington, d. C. , does not have all the answers. Government is not th
98 degrees. Record was last set and then actually tied in 1892 on this day as well as 2002 but we should just flirt with that here today. Problem is it feels so much hotter when you factor in the humidity. High this afternoon expect a few puff i clouds along the way. We are expecting the high to hit 95 degrees but by 5 00 p. M. We are at 93. We will end up feeling that heat basically all afternoon. Looking a head to the area headlines, we are tracking a new frontal boundary by tomorrow to bring in some thunderstorms but it doesnt too much to cool us down. We will stay hot right in the weekend. So we will have all of the details of how hot it will remain in your full seven day forecast as the show progresses. Meisha, over to you.

Road are looking pretty good right now. This is what we have going on in northeast philadelp
Something. Thank you. Thank you so much for the discussion. Im show jen from china daily. Speaking of asia and china, i want to ask what china and the u. S. Could do to cooperate in terms of Scientific Research and manufacturing and also the promotion of the new technology of Energy Sources and what is the role of ecp in this cooperation. And also, how they effect the economy, the politics an the bilateral relationship between china and the u. S. Thank you. Steve. [ laughter ] that is a big question. So i will take a stab at this but then im handing it straight over to you. All right. Only because your right inside of the game and this is that the cooperation, in my own view, will happen after the innovation.

You are not going to have, for example, japan handing over its innovations to china, to south korea or south korea doing so with china or the United States doing

The short answer is that there are inventors and companies and argan talk about this. Im sure, who are trying all of these. And one of the im a believer in natural car natural gas car future. And its for this reason, that so, you know, in economics, you know, does supply create demand does demand create supply . It goes both ways. One of the most interesting formulations is supply creating demand. And it goes back to the way i like to picture it, is the cocaine model. So did americans become hooked on crack cocaine because we started out being hooked on crack cocaine and then the cartel responded to that . Or did the cartel start pumping cocaine into the United States and then the market developed from that .
