the japanese showcase their mastery, and nighttime close range engagement. we lost for cruisers, vincennes, quincy and the story went down with about 1000 men. he really could say the battle of savo island was a disaster, even worse in the pearl harbor attack. the so-called defeat at pearl harbor if you will simply a natural resource of the battle ready force descending upon its sleeping navy stationed at it was a surprise attack. there's nothing to say but u.s. combat arms when the rolling out of the box at 7:00 to battle dive bombers screamed down on the. savo island you a combat ready u.s. team, powerful cruiser force under combatant command. not like a man. this proves significant. you had a couple of captains, in command of these squadrons but they were essential in a nighttime patrol disposition, i.e. they are sitting ducks going back and forth like this wouldn't to be picked off into comes the admiral with his very well-trained crews, specifically and rigorously trained for nighttime combat falling upon them. this laid bare a number of deficiencies in

what's our first step in helping nurture our children's mastery of their world?earn so much about a child's abilities and needs simply by watching, observing...absorbing. only then can we arrange our space and activities so they provide experiences that both satisfy and intrigue the child... activities that entice him to achieve further physical skills. let's take a look at this baby. what physical skills do you think she has mastered already? what type of environment do you think would allow this child to practice old skills while challenging her to develop new ones? let's remember how important play is as the means children use to try out and practice new skills. what may look like simple reaching or pulling to us can really be this child's earliest efforts to master some vital large muscle skills. we want to make it into a swimming pool. woman: bring them over here now. hendrick: and large muscle skills include different kinds of activities. woman: no. right over here. child: where's the swimming pool? second child: we can't see! hendrick: teachers need to pla

i also marvel at her mastery of brief but focused conversations and her stance.a technique that she once explained to the wife of one of her foreign secretaries by lifting her evening gown and above her ankle saying one plants one's feet apart like this. always keep them at parallel. meek sure how your weight is evenly distributed, and that's all there is to it. as i observed the queen over the course of a gear, on a accumulated impressions that helped me understand how she carries out her role and how earnestly she does her job with great discipline and concentration in every situation. she is not just a figurehead and she has an impressive range of duties. every day except christmas and easter she spends several hours reading those government boxes that barbour just described. they are delivered, they are red leather boxes that can only be open by the four keys. she raises them in the morning in that light and even on weekends. one of her close friends told me about the time during one of the queens visits when she was dressed down all morning. must you ma'am?

he has a mastery of that issue. he also really gets under the skin of the president.emember, it was ryan who really provoked the president into getting serious about budgetary issue, though he wasn't so serious as to endorse the bowles-simpson recommendations. i think ryan is the key here. i think although the bounce on his initial nomination was very small, that's true, i think in complete let's opposite way from sarah palin, ryan is going to grow in his credibility the more the american public sees of him. he's not just smart. he's very likable. he has many of the character traits that mitt romney really doesn't have. paul ryan is easy-going. he's funny. you know, he connects with younger americans in a way that i think mitt romney struggles to. and as a combination, they're really greater than the sum of the two parts. so this is-- i think it's terrible news for the obama campaign. they must be really worried and they must be worried whether they can get rid of biden before it's too late. >> schieffer: to pick up on neil's point, that's one of the reasons romney an

possession, mastery of yourself, which comes from latin poorhouse. it is the master of the house, very powerful year of the roman law. master of the house. dominion is master of his own person. possession and jurisdiction can belong to infidels legally and without -- these things are magnified for the faithful but for every rational creature. as has been said. that principle we know was perhaps establish philosophically but not in principle, terrible crimes took place on both sides of the crusades. enormous amounts of long, violent, and, indeed, the crusader armies, one of the greatest was not antioch or baghdad. it was constantinople is, the greatest christian sitting nearby. there is one very, the mood to sack some and that was closer, so they sacked that. but this principle is been universalized all human beings. two great figures in a classical liberal tradition, francisco david vitoria, who wrote a very important book on the right of the indians, the indigenous population of the americas to spain you to come here, discovered these puzzling creat

i also marveled at mastery of brief but focus conversations. and her storedy stance. a technique she once explained to the wife of one of her foreign secretaries by lifting her evening gown above her angle and saying, one plants the feet apart like this, keep them parallel, make sure your weight is evenly distributed and that's all there is to it. as i observe the queen overt course of a year, i accumulated impressions that help me understand how she carries out her role and how earnestly she does her job with great discipline and concentration in every situation. she is not just a figure head. and she has an em pressive range of duty every day except christmas and east easter she spends hours of reading the government boxes. they are delivered, they are red lettedder boxes that can only be opened by four keys. she reads them in the morning and at night and even on weekends. one of her close friends told me about th time during one of the queen's visits when she was -- must you madam her friend asked? the queen replied, if i miss once, i might never catch up again. ma

the korean model they have a huge amount of time--they require mastery.adians have twice the access to college that we have at half of the price. they have the highest rate of college graduates of any country in the world in canada. what are these other countries doing right that we can create uniquely american education system that takes best practices. >> al gore: part of the problem when we dress that as soon as what do you mean other countries, we're number one! we're not losing to anyone else. >> john: my dad was a teacher both my brothers and my wife were teachers. my definition of patriotism is having the best education system in the world. where we heard candidate after candidate talking about abolishing the department of education in an era where we see teachers teaching the test to keep their jobs is very chilling. i liked jeb bush's peach. i didn't hear him criticize president obama's education policies directly. >> cenk: now we're going to go back to l.a. and jacki schechner and shana. >> how uninteresting do you have to be to be the republica

there's a whole world of explanations that say it's the predatory instincts it's the instincts for mastery it's the delusions of investors and greed and all the rest of it so there's a whole range of discussion of that and of course the more we learn about the daily practices on wallstreet we kind of figure there's a great deal of truth in all that the second genre is that there is institutional failures regulators were asleep at the switch the shadow banking system innovated outside of their purview etcetera, etcetera, etcetera and therefore institutions have to be reconfigured and it has to be a global effort by the g20 something of that kind so we look at the institutional level and say that has failed and that has to be reconfigured the third genre is to say that everybody was obsessed with a false theory they ready too much high-ec and believed in the efficiency of markets and it's time we actually got back to something like keynes or we took seriously hyman minsky's theory about the inherent instability of financial activities the next genre is that this has cultural origins now, we
