. >> just to clarify for folks who are watching at home, are universal system is over $8 billion per year. it is one of the largest subsidy programs in the government. it is where one group of telecom users subsidizes another. it governs how carriers and telecom companies compensate each other for the use of their networks. in the fall of 2008, there were four fcc commissioners out of five. we agreed in principle on many of the universal service issues. some of these are arcane and make people's eyes glaze over. it did not happen then. it provided a ray of hope that we can agree on these things. it is important to show we can agree on these things. it can be a politically charged issue. there are a lot of stakeholders. there are lots of differences of opinion in the senate. the senate represents urban and suburban constituents. whirl and dress -- rural address -- rural interests have other interests. my hope is that we can do this before the leaves fall off of the trees this year. my concern is we have started looking only at the distribution side, who gets the subsidy. a contributio

-- >> is the weakest point the chinese university system? we are not seeing a single university in the trend among the top-ranking universities -- in the top -- in china are among the top-ranking universities. >> particularly the university system -- it is designed to deal with exams, not innovation. the state councilor was in the u.s. yesterday. she announced that china will send 10,000 students on scholarship to the u.s., and china would give 10,000 u.s. student scholarships to study in china. that is a pattern of change for .he future ki when you have enough people working together, then innovation, brainstorming, it will happen. otherwise, you hold society in a box and there is no creativity. we need to go forward. >> [unintelligible] >> i am only sale m -- only calm externally. you talk about u.s. failures, but what you're talking about is really people learning from u.s. success. they emulate the historic understanding of the role of the different sectors -- government, academia, business -- that has created the backbone on which a lot of the

universe out there, so do you think we're alone or is there life on other planets? >> i totally do! totally do! not necessarily in this solar system, but i mean there are like millions of galaxies and universes and everything. i mean, there has got to be life somewhere else! without a doubt! >> i think there's like micro organisms, but not like organisms that are big enough to communicate. >> i think so, just because the universe is so big and it would make sense that we weren't the only planet, but you can't know for sure. >> do you think we'll ever make contact? >> maybe eventually, but i don't know how soon. yes, but not the kind of freaky alien green dudes. i think it's more kind of what we see here like little creatures that we just haven't found yet. little microorganisms, that kind of thing. >> and do you think we'll ever find them or make contact? >> probably, but it won't be in our time. >> i'm not sure if there's life on another planet. um, i don't believe in aliens so i don't think so. >> in the 1990s, nasa actually started a program to search for extraterrestrial life. nothing was found, but the program continues to this day. for "teen kids

are still fundamental issues with the school system. look at the endowment of emory compared to some of the black universities and colleges in atlanta. entrepreneurship is a big part of it. i did not understand and nobody told me what is involved with buying your own home until i was in my second law school, where is the my counterparts, the white students i was in class with, they had had that information coming up. it was just second nature. i asked the guy across the hall from me what his folks did. but told him my mom was a nurse and my dad was a teacher, a soldier before. he said his father was the deputy prime minister of jordan. i was like, "ok." minute court partner -- my moot court partner, he said his father owned three swiss banks. i think even before entrepreneurship, it is financial literacy. we need to educate ourselves about what these resources are. it is financial literacy and really wealth literacy, understanding that there are different kinds of wealth beyond just monetary wealth, but you need to understand monetary wealth, spiritual well, the social capital we have and understand how to cultivate those things and

gentleman is absolutely right, because of the system we are introducing, we will be spending more overall on universities, the key thing is that because of the reductions in spending we are having to make elsewhere, this is the only way to guarantee that we have well- funded universities, well- stocked libraries, well-paid lecturers and good universities to take on the world. >> i asked a very simple question -- where will the money come from, given that the government have miscalculated the level of tuition fees? universities up and down the country are worried that the prime minister does not think that an 80% cut in the teaching budget is enough and that he will come back for more. policing is another area of public services that i do not think the government are getting quite right. the police minister was asked eight times on the radio this morning whether the number of front-line police officers would fall. may i ask the prime minister whether there will be fewer front-line police officers in the years ahead? >> according to home office statistics, if all forces achieve the current best average for

we are doing a lot of things by way of universal service reform through the joint lords and the like, and attempting to modernize the system in order to include a broadband as a part of the mix. the way we are communicating is changing and we are changing with it. so what we are attempting to do is encourage public-private partnerships. that works. we are doing that in the wake of a very shrinking government ability to put money exactly where we wanted to go, and so what we are doing is trying to encourage all of these things in concert in order to enhance the consumer experience. those things are important. >> guest: is the fcc on the right course with most of these things? are there areas where you would like to see the commission do more and get more aggressive? >> guest: i think we are on the right course. of course you are sometimes impatient. you want certain things especially in unserved areas. you want us to move at an exponential rate. sometimes the reality of the day don't provide or permit that. but i think we are on the right course. we are focusing on some of the things that might not be as exciting like unive

many other governors across the country, democrats republican, they are cutting millions of dollars from schools, universities systems, local governments and other areas that affect all the things you mentioned, and instead they are saying they are the cuts, now you either make it through massive layoffs or through massive property tax increases. i said in my state and can't afford to have anybody in the public or private sector in the more massive layoffs. i need more people working changing the business climate, showing in fact many issues, republicans and democrats alike we brought together to pass legislation that this one of the most productive, pro job agendas in the country. we had to do all that to protect jobs. by the same token we know one of the other things that would cut down the recovery would be a massive tax increase. we saw it two years ago when my predecessor raised taxes on corporations and individuals, we saw the jobs, the exodus. we want those people to come back. >> i understand competitiveness especially in the midwest in terms of job creation of this competition on tax rates, obviously, it? >>

these creatures are prominent in mosques in the united states and europe and have secured positions as chaplains in western universities, prison systems and military. this is not to say let me stress that all american or european muslim communities share this marshall and expansionist orientation but is very much to say these saudi trained clerics have obtained enough positions in the west and have enough access to muslim youth through multimedia vehicles to have a growing impact. they are now influencing some young muslim males in the west in a pro jihad direction. in much the same way they have for years influenced them in the middle east, asia and africa. those who doubt this would be well served in reviewing the escalating number of militant related activities that have been uncovered in the united states since 2007. to note the growing number of young u.s.-canadian australian, british muslims who are going abroad to fight and trained under al qaeda's banner in somalia, yemen and afghanistan and also to note our cat's successful recruitment of talented u.s. citizen muslims to run media operations targeting muslim communities in th
