kennedy and the marvelous dynamic leadership of the shriver is that we need to look for ways to expand the peace corps. this year, we moved into indonesia, sierra leone, and columbia -- colombia, three countries that were part of the kennedy-shriver legacy. will continue to expand. the peace corps on the 50th anniversary gives us a tremendous mandate from the american people. i always told my staff and the people i talked to about the 50th anniversary. it is not so much an opportunity for us to pat ourselves on the back and say look how much we gave and how much we received. it is too late to let america celebrate the singular opportunity, this wonderful idea that president kennedy launched 50 years ago, october 15. look at what it has wrought. it is a truly major performance that has affected many. >> i want to ask a couple of questions about the effect of the peace corps, and then i want to pick up on mark's question about the future. let me ask you this question. many of you have spoken, as i did, about the effect of the peace corps on the peace corps volunteers, and on training a c

certainly, i think the energy of the founders, president kennedy and shriver, would say is it right for the next 50 years? is it really 27 months for everyone? isn't it a scandal that we have 10,000 applicants of americans who are wanting to do this? i do not know if they are already to the peace corps volunteers, but we say no to thousands of them. everyone of us went into congress to get more money. that is less money than the military marching band. i like the military marching band. but it is a matter of priorities. we can scale up with volunteers. we can look at the length of service. we can raise greater collaborations and partnerships. the world is different than it was 50 years ago. if anyone would have wanted us to say, "keep mission central," look at different areas, use of technology, it would have been president kennedy and sergeant server. there are a number of different ways we can honor the past and say true to our core mission, but do it in innovative ways with the kind of volunteers we are attracted, the world in which we live, the technology they could use, the length

and to the question that chairperson shriver reads to chairman fugate, sort of a sub recommendation of this subplot which is to urge fema to create a similar point of contact at the regional level for children's issues. i think as mr. shriver said, it's great news that theme is looking to create such a position at the headquarters level. but obviously there needs to be a point of focus and coordination at the regional level. so that is a suggestion that was made at the request of the chairperson. i just want to make sure that everybody is aware of it, if there are any questions. >> moving on, recommendation to point to. the president should accelerate the develop an and implementation of the framework within an explicit emphasis on addressing the immediate and long-term physical mental health, educational, housing and human services recovery needs of children. [inaudible] >> recommendation 1.3, the department only to get and federal emergency measure agency shall ensure the information required for a time and effective delivery of recovery services to children and families is collected

said before, this being a complex issue because there is actually a balance between how you keep the shriver attempted and engaged while driving. you don't want to reduce the workload because you might end in a state where you're becoming drowsy or tired or not concentrating or you put your attention to something else. so we would like to change it may be bought from destruction but talk more about inadequate attention of occasion as a better word for it. sweating we really need to understand the balance and i know for sure at mit you've been looking at some of these aspects there is a balance on what we are doing, destruction being a major cause, yes, we have to address it and we are addressing it in the terms of both having the car break itself if you're about to collide to another vehicle, a vulnerable user like a pedestrian today we have the technology and that of course helps drivers not only the older ones but drivers in conflict situations to have a different user or if you're in a heavy traffic environment. but really, we can do only so much with the car to help drivers but we also h
