name is jeff haley from seattle with the distracted driving foundation, we are advocating a universal technicalon to the problem. my question is for dr. angell, i found your presentation very interesting and i'm wondering what you see as the next step to identifying technology for universal technical solutions and how much funtsing -- how much money is needed to fund the next step in the research. >> that's a tough one. i'm going to answer that question, you know, i'll speak for myself here, not necessarily for anybody i have worked for in the past or currently work for. i do think that the next step that we need to take is to do research on the potential solutions. i don't think that research has been done yet. i think we do need to take a look at the technology solutions, how effective they are, whether they have any unintended consequences on behavior. optimize their potential. and i don't know, i haven't thought through how much money that would take. i apologize there, i should have -- i should have been thinking ahead here but i think that's a good question for discussion, maybe, some fol

under this bill, training would continue to be done by technical schools, universities, and union sponsorjourneyman programs in coordination with companies and business groups. a welder trained in a junior college in maryland would have a certificate qualifying him to work in a machine shop in idaho. a trained diesel mechanic in my state could get an auto mechanic's job in jors. american workers are the best in the world. they are resilient, innovative, and hard-working. but they must be properly trained and have widely accepted and understood credentials making them employable anywhere. this bill will ensure that federal job training is used to provide hard-working americans desiring training with the certificates and credentials that americans need to fill a sophisticated technical job available in today's business world. i thank my colleague from louisiana for his support and the gentlewoman from hawaii for her leadership and urge my colleagues to support this bipartisan common sense legislation. i yield back the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from idaho yie

we visited a number of schools, universities, technical institutes, a number of their high-tech centers. the general feeling was that we do pretty well with our schools through grade six and they do better in those categories from grade 6 to grade 12. everyone agrees that our universities of the best, that is why they come here. it was interesting, they said that you americans -- it is your creativity. they said that they could not match the creativity. i wanted to be politically polite so i did not say that if they got rid of communism it might help, but they recognize that there was something about the american culture that encouraged people to take risks, think outside of the box. that is what keeps us ahead. it must keep us ahead in the future. when i look at tax laws and regulatory policy, i do not look at this as if i will go after that guy because he makes more money than i do, buy it look at it in terms of having a system that will give people the capacity to dream beyond their dreams, give them new ideas. cell phones, blackberry, iphone, ipad, no one thought of these things 30

technical assistant services. some of them use high quality tools to provide high quality services, and others unfortunately do not. there are no standard universal tools or standards for service provision, i found. i also found there is insufficient access to services. one of the main problems is that a lot of people don't know that these services even exist. they don't know about the sbac, and they don't know about the ndo's. i found there is a lot of technical assistant for micro enterprises and people starting new businesses, but there is insufficient help for owners of existing small businesses. i found that while some neighborhoods and demographic groups receive adequate services, others are under served. for example, the con ton ease -- canton ease community, we have had a problem providing small business assistance. finally, for technical assistance, insufficient bread this of services. i identified areas of demand for the kinds of services that don't exist. on access to capital, unsurprisingly over the last couple of years there has been reduced access to capital. i have heard from a lot of people that banks aren't making loans. then i l
