from the prairies of illinois to the riverbanks of missouri to right across the length and breadth of this nation there is rightfully no virtue seen in conformity. from an early age, the american child is instructed to characterize submission unaccompanied by struggle as shameful. the only uniform america wears is individuality. for americans understand the simple arithmetic that where group think delivers greater, individual drives creativity. we find ourselves today in a culture war. it is waged by men and women to change the way we think, the way we speak, the way we interact and the way we live our lives. they do it for our schools, universities and through our media. it is a war that pits women against men, ethnic minorities against their new homelands. the struggling against the successful. it is the same or that makes the white middle-class educated american guy working 70 hours a week, we can, week out, year in, year out, who is accomplish something in his life feel as if he is resented. it is a board that says judeo-christian values have no place in this world. it is a war th

everything to do with their connectivity properties: which bridges are connected to which islands or riverbanks, or vertex, of the bridges of konigsberg had an odd degree: three nodes had degree 3 and one node had degree 5. euler realized that every time you travel an edge into a vertex, you have to leave by another edge in order to avoid crossing the previous edge again. that means if you're never going to double back, then the number of edges coming out of each vertex must be twice the number of times you visit that vertex. in other words, every interior vertex of the trip has to have even degree. now, since all the nodes at konigsberg had an odd number of edges -- each node with an odd degree -- there was no route that crossed all seven bridges without crossing one more than once. but what happens if we remove one of the konigsberg bridges? this node here has two edges now connected to it, this one has degree 4, and two of these have degree 3. so now we have two of even degree and two of odd degree. now, having done this, in fact, we can find a path that uses each bridge exactly once. and th

to this same stretch of river to convince the industry giant to consider the impact on pristine riverbanks in their pending request to drill in the greater natural buttes region. anadarko's existing permits were expiring. the company wanted to bring out gas left behind by past wells and old-fashioned drilling methods and make a new plan with the united states bureau of land management. the wilderness alliance asked anadarko to drill further away from the river floors, to erect wells away from the canyon rims, so they can't be seen by canoers and hikers. the energy company anadarko had a lot riding on the greater natural buttes project, and the numbers are staggering: 3,700 wells, six trillion cubic feet of gas reserves, billions to be paid in royalties to the state government of utah and to the federal government, and thousands of jobs created. the only question was, could they pull all that gas out of the ground and make peace with environmentalists and indian tribes to save one of america's last great landscapes? >> the several feet that we would see in this, we could drill in an hour or
