two prominent economists, john etwell and lance taylor, they wrote an important book in which they spelled out the consequences of these market inefficiencies, which we now see. and they outline means to deal with them. these proposals were exactly contrary to the deregulatory rage that was then being carried forward by the clinton administration under the leadership of those who obama has now called upon to put band-aids on the disaster that they helped create. in substantial measure, the food crisis plaguing much of the south and the financial crisis of the north have common roots, name namely, the shift toward neoliberalism since the 1970s. that brought to an end the post-war, post-second world war system that was instituted by the united states and britain. i had two architects written, and they anticipated that its core principles, which included capital controls and regulated currencies -- they anticipated that these principles would lead to relatively balanced, economic growth and would also free governments to institute the social democratic programs, welfare state programs, that h

just for a bit of recent background, last year lance berkman of the astros led all of baseball with a streak of 21 games. the last washington player to lead the league was ed stroud in 1968 with 11, but the all- time record holder is hall of famer joe crone of the nationals of 1933. that year from the 25th of may, to the 30th of june, he produced at least a run a game. during that streak he scored 34 runs, batted in 45, his runs proud total was 77. we're talking about productive outs here sometimes. you can go a number of games, without getting any hits, but maybe you have a sacrifice fly, maybe you have hit into a fielder's choice and a run scores on that and there's the rbi, maybe you got on base by an error or a walk and you end up scoring. washington won the pennant that year, another small bit of irony, the all time hit streak record that season also 33 games. close as anyone has come is 24 games by andres galarraga in 1997. the montreal franchise record is 15. but obviously hits are great, winning is better, and runs are much better than that. >> nobody has better diamond dust t

film industry in los angeles california we're in a plant is generally temporary and down on a free-lancee industry individual coverage is a necessity. at times i applied i just left a temporary staffing agency for sony pictures to work on a specific movie when i made the move i had to give the stability of my group health care plan. so i immediately sought individual health care coverage. when i applied for coverage with blue cross i wanted to make sure i did everything correctly to make sure there would be no problems. i felt of the application to the best of my ability evin dewitt was long and confusing. i wrote down everything i could remember including hypothyroidism, a condition i've had since i was 18 and i listed the contact information for my doctor and turned in the application to my broker. she told me everything looked good and sent it to blue cross and they accepted my application doctor for a checkup and i had routine blood work performed and the doctor's office sent the bill to blue cross. i received a letter shortly after birds singing they wanted all of my medical records

. >> free-lance correspondent. mr. dave legates have you read the book? then i suggest you should write a book because everything has the other side and we need to know. something i want to say something basic both to you and the audience, climate change comes from human behavior and industrial production. do we have any data on those things? thank you. >> i am not sure i would be the person to write a book like this. i have not written a book can have no plans to do so by average in a couple chapters. my stuff is much more technical people on both sides of the aisle are more talented that can translate to the general public without the coming down the science they are much more gifted at that i will try to stick to the scientific things. there has been a lot of assessment with change of urbanization and industrialization and some are available on the panel of climate change. the issue is how does that change the landscape and how does it translate back into climate models? there are people trying to work on that and forecast what human behavior will look

we beeve, based on the turnover we have, our corps is bhi and large lance corporals. i mean, our average age is around 21, 67% of our marine corps is e-3 or below. we have a steady turnover of great young people that come in, become marines, and they go out to become quality citizens. so that turnover, though it requires a consistent training and preparing people for what they face, is also an advantage in terms of your sustainability over something of this duration. so we think that we'll be there for a while, we're going to be there as long as anybody else. if the fighting is to be done, when it becomes a nation building role, as it has, we believe in iraq, then that's not a core competency of the marine corps and at that point, we'd start saying, is there a better use for us elsewhere and our national command authorities would make that determination. >> as the u.s. military role in iraq winds down, what do you see as the key strategic role in the u.s.-kuwait relationship going forward? >> i think it's going to be important, what's going to have to be answered is h

i thank congressman lance and others who are co-sponsoring this bill and i ask my colleagues to join us and i yield back the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: for what purpose does the gentleman from kentucky rise? >> unanimous consent to address the house for one minute, revise and extend my remarks. the speaker pro tempore: without objection, the gentleman is recognized. >> madam speaker, by 2035, the heritage foundation estimates that chairman waxman's legislation will cause a 90% increase in electricity rates and a 55% rise in residential natural gas prices. experts predict this will result in substantial numbers of united states jobs going to countries like china and india that have not adopted a national it energy tax. at a time when national unemployment rate is soaring, approaching 10% in the next several months and the kentucky unemployment rate is getting dangerously high, we can't afford to enact this lenslation -- legislation to create additional hardships. energy prices are a major factor in determining the cost of living and the cost of doing business in a pa

the fact is he's left with a second preference lance lower. now, on the issue of public spending, on the issue of public spending, let's be clear about the answers the prime minister has given. he said last week, public spending is rising every year. that is what he said. his chancellor said, i have cut overall public spending. the figures the prime minister is walking around are his own figures. he is planning to cut public spending by 7% in every department over the next three years. the next election, when he has the guts to call it, won't be about labor investment versus cuts, it's going to be an election about the mismanagement -- it's going to be an election about the mismanagement of the public finances, their polling deficit he left and his plans for cuts. let me just ask him this question. why not? why not on the issue of electoral reform? why not on the issue of electoral reform, admit this the current system gives the country the chance to throw out a government that is weak, that is divided, that is incompetent and that's what we s
