Dear judy,

There's only one way to change America: together. There's only one way to make history: together.

And I'm so proud to have you by my side as we take our country back after six and a half years of cronyism and corruption, incompetence and deception.

Every "You go girl!" and "Give em Hill!", every letter of support you've sent, every dollar you've contributed, every friend you've recruited, every blog you've written, every house party you've attended, every petition you've signed, every time you've shown your support, every one of these things is the heart and soul of my campaign.

To put it simply: I owe the success of my campaign to each and every one of you. And to the skeptics who doubt the strength of our grassroots community, I say you've proven them wrong.

Now I want to share an astonishing -- and humbling -- number: 981,440. That's how many of you have supported my campaign for change.

Let's get to a million supporters.

Sign up your family and friends and coworkers. Have them sign up theirs. Tell them we're about to reach a million strong. Tell them we're making history together. And the person who is our one millionth supporter -- along with one of our current supporters, like you -- will travel with me and my team on the campaign trail to roll up our sleeves for a whirlwind day.

Click here to send a message to your friends urging them to sign up, or to sign up if you haven't yet joined the campaign.

Here's why reaching one million supporters is so crucial: because working together, there's nothing we can't achieve. It takes strength and experience to bring about change -- and it also takes cooperation. With your help, my campaign has come so far and now with your help we'll have the resources we need to win. I've told my campaign to come up with the strongest field program ever created, and I know you are a key part of that effort.

That's why we need you to ask everyone you know to join the campaign today: friends, family, coworkers -- everyone in your email address book! Visit our "One Million" page today:

http://www.hillaryclinton.com/onemillion

I know you're with me every step of the way -- I see you on the campaign trail, at rallies and diners, house parties and town halls. It makes such a difference knowing I have such incredible support. Thank you for everything you do, and let's hit that one million goal!

Sincerely,

Hillary Rodham Clinton

About U. S. Senator Hillary Clinton:
Hillary Rodham Clinton is a United States Senator of New York. As a Senator, she has continued her advocacy for children and families and has been a national leader on homeland security and national security issues.
She is married to Bill Clinton, the U. S. 42nd President. From 1993 to 2001, Hillary was the First Lady of the United States. As a candidate in the 2008 United States presidential election, she has consistently been the front-runner in polls for the Democratic nomination.
During her years as First Lady of the United States, she was successful in several areas, such as establishing the Children's Health Insurance Program in 1997.
Hillary's commitment to health care for every American has never wavered. She was instrumental in designing and championing the State Children's Health Insurance Program, which has provided millions of children with health insurance. She battled the big drug companies to force them to test their drugs for children and to make sure all kids get the immunizations they need through the Vaccines for Children Program. Immunization rates dramatically improved after the program launched.
Her 1995 book "It Takes A Village," about the responsibility we all have to help children succeed, became an international best seller. The Lady has donated the proceeds -- more than a million dollars -- to children's causes across the country. Her autobiography, "Living History," was also a best seller. The book has been translated into 12 languages and sold over 1.3 million copies.
In 2000, Hillary was elected to the United States Senate from New York. As Senator, Hillary has continued her advocacy for children and families and has been a national leader on homeland security and national security issues.
U. S. Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton was re-elected by a wide margin in 2006. New Yorkers reelected her to the U. S. Senate with 67 percent of the vote.

Our mutual cooperation and development between the officials and people will help bring us a peaceful, happy, and healthy community!
By Mark Denton, Jessie Walsh, Cheryl Moss, and Tiffany Chang

It is difficult to visualize how much of our state is burning. As of 3:00 p.m. on July 20th, approximately 72 wildfires are burning in Nevada. A total of 564 fires have consumed an estimated 341,000 acres already this year.

This week I visited firefighters in both Reno and Elko as they battled the Hawken fire southwest of Reno and numerous blazes currently burning across northeast Nevada. In one short helicopter ride, I saw fires that have consumed 300,000 acres in Elko County alone. Besides the loss of grasslands, the impact on wildlife and ecology will be devastating. Businesses that depend on ranching and hunting will suffer the effects for years to come.

Nevada抯 state agencies are working together to battle these wildfires, and I am proud of how everyone is pitching in. The Nevada Department of Transportation has joined our Division of Forestry, the Nevada National Guard and city and county governments in supplying manpower and equipment. Just today the Clark County Fire Department sent fire engines to Elko. Nevada is currently at the top of the federal government抯 fire list, so we hold top priority for getting federal resources. A combined total of nearly 2,000 firefighters from federal, state and local agencies are now at work fighting wildland fires across the state.

This week I signed an executive order declaring a state of emergency in Nevada and directed all state agencies to assist our counties and towns wherever needed to protect the health and safety of Nevadans as well as their property. This allows agencies to use the state抯 Disaster Relief Fund to supplement firefighting budgets wherever necessary.

Together, we are winning the fight against wildfire. Unfortunately, the peak of this fire season still lies in the weeks ahead. Plants will get even drier during the heat of summer, and August traditionally brings the highest probability of lightning. We cannot control rainfall or lightning, but we can each exercise caution whenever we venture into the wilderness. Our state and our safety depend on it.

{{{ Speak Up!
I am proud to be your voice in the United States Senate, and I believe it is important that we communicate with each other. For my part, I will send these newsletters throughout the 110th Congress. I encourage you to speak up and let your voice be heard. }}}

For Americans, "Supporting the troops," is a statement that we do not take lightly.

"Supporting the troops," ?we believe ?should not end when our brave men and women return home from combat; "Supporting the troops," should not end when those who have served so honorably are taken ill and need medical care; "Supporting the troops," should not end when, after risking life and limb, wounded soldiers are forced into medical retirement by combat related injuries.

Our soldiers, veterans, and their families deserve nothing but the best from our government. Unfortunately, the red tape of bureaucracy has long prevented these fine Americans from receiving the care and compensation they deserve. Today, I am offering two amendments to the Department of Defense Authorization Bill designed to address the inequalities U.S. veterans face in the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs care system *2

My first amendment aims to expand Concurrent Receipt to allow disabled veterans to simultaneously collect their military retirement paycheck and VA disability compensation, reversing an unfair practice that has disadvantaged our veterans for over a century. This legislation will affect more than 500,000 disabled military retirees by allowing all veterans, regardless of their disability rating, to draw from both their retirement pay and disability compensation. In addition, it repeals the 10 year phase-in period currently imposed upon veterans that are eligible for full concurrent receipt.

The second amendment I will introduce aims to restore earned military pay for disabled retirees deemed 100 Percent Unemployable. Administrative changes to our landmark 2004 legislation created a grouping system in which veterans rated as 搕otally disabled," did not have to wait and get 100 percent of their benefits, while those rated as 搖nemployable" had a 10-year phase-in. In 2005, I introduced legislation to eliminate the 10 year phase for 揢nemployable" veterans, but the conference committee chose not to enact this valuable legislation until 2009. This current legislation will amend the 2005 law with an effective date of December 31, 2004 instead of 2009, making these benefits available to current veterans as well as providing back pay to those veterans left behind in the 2005 legislation.

As part of the underlying bill, I had the Combat-Related Special Compensation Act included during the mark-up process. This legislation ensures that soldiers who are forced into medical retirement by combat injuries before attaining twenty years of service remain eligible to receive their combat-related disability and retirement benefits, proportional to their length of service. This legislation is essential for the more than 23,000 injured personnel who are returning from war. The widespread use of Improvised Explosive Devices has created numerous amputees resulting in an increase in medically discharged veterans.

The American public抯 outrage over the deplorable conditions at Walter Reed, alongside their cry for better physical and mental health care for veterans returning home from Iraq and Afghanistan proves that when the American people say, 揝upport the troops," they mean it. It is time for politicians in Washington to put an end to the lip service and begin to enact real changes that address the inequalities our U.S. veterans face at home in regards to retirement benefits and disability compensation. American veterans have put their lives on the line fighting for us; it is time that we stand up and fight for them.*3

Sincerely,

Harry Reid

But he still lives in Searchlight … and he is still guided by the lessons and values he learned there.
The Las Vegas Sun newspaper summarized Reid’s story by saying that he “has gone from underdog to Senate’s top dog.”
Parade Magazine, the nation’s largest weekly magazine, identified Senator Reid as one of a handful of leaders in Washington with “integrity and guts.”
Since Nevadans elected him to the Senate in 1986, Harry Reid has developed a reputation as a consensus builder and a skillful legislator. Even his Republican colleagues praise his reasoned, balanced approach.
Senate Judiciary Chairman Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) has said, “We all respect Senator Reid. He is one of the moderate voices around here who tries to get things to work.”
And former GOP Leader Trent Lott said, “Harry Reid is out there finding a solution. I enjoy working with him very much.”
He was elected to the Senate in 1986, and re-elected in 1992, 1998 and 2004. He has served as the chairman or senior Democratic member on several important committees and subcommittees.
Reid is a tireless worker, and it isn’t unusual for him to be the first Senator of either party to arrive at the Capitol in the morning and the last to go home at night.

The 2nd Edition of "Effort and cooperation will bring us a peaceful, happy, and prosperous community in Nevada" by Rory Reid, Mark Denton, and Tiffany Chang, which was posted by WBTI on September 20, 2003, stated the effort and cooperation between officials and Asian communities in Nevada.

"Our endeavor is to help Southern Nevada be a country of the people, by the people, and for the people where our and our future generations may have a better opportunity to live a happy and succeeful life," said Rory Reid, Clark County Commissioner, at the Event and Dinner Party at the Zax Restaurant of Golden Nugget Casino and Hotel on September 17, 2003 in Las Vegas.

To pay a special tribute to Nevada Chief Justice of Supreme Court Bill Maupin; Commissioner of Clark County Rory Reid; Sherif of Southern Nevada Bill Young; District Judges Mark Denton, Valorie Vega, Jessie Walsh, Jackie Glass; Nevada Controller (the late) Kathy Augustine; and Chief Judge of Las Vegas Toy Gregory; the above Event and Party was held by WBTI. The Theme was: Light Candles along the Silver Stream of Southern Nevada with Clark County District Attorney and Police Civil Commission.*3

"It's my great pleasure to be nominated by WBTI as its Honorary Chairman and Senior Advisor of CCDAPCC," said District Attorney Stewart Bell at the Dinner Party to "Nevada Examiner" and "Las Vegas Review-Journal". "The significance of the creed of a County deserves to encourage administrative professionals to emphasize the value of the truth, goodness, and beauty in order to maintain it as a place of the people, by the people, and for the people. It's my honor to join the Commission." The Dinner Party was held by WBTI to celebrate Bell as Honorary Chairman and Senior Advisor of CCDAPCC at the Steak House of Binion's Horseshoe Club on October 7, 2002.*4

“I’m looking forward to serving on the Finance Committee,” said Ensign. “This seat provides me with a better opportunity to advance several of my top legislative priorities, such as reducing taxes, encouraging investment, making government more efficient and reforming our entitlement programs for future generations.” *1 He was named to the Finance Committee on July 10, 2007, a key panel that has broad jurisdiction over tax policy, entitlement programs and trade-related matters.

“The Nevada Congressional delegation is probably as strong as it has ever been with two seats on Ways and Means in the House and two members of leadership in the Senate,” said Ensign, who is Chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee. “My appointment to the Finance Committee makes our delegation even stronger and better positioned to represent Nevada’s interests, including gaming, mining and tourism to name a few.” *2

The following are some paragraphs of the recent Press Release from the Office of Senator John Ensign on May 11, 2007:

"In a continuing effort to improve security and services for Nevada's airports, Senators Harry Reid and John Ensign announced today that they have secured nearly $11 million in funding for the Reno/Tahoe International Airport," stated the Press on last Friday.

"Tourism is an integral part of Nevada's economy," said Reid. "This grant will improve air travel for both residents and visitors. It is critical our airports continue to receive important funding like this. I will continue to work to enhance security and services for travelers flying in and out of the Reno area."

"This funding is essential to helping the Reno Airport accommodate the growth of Reno, Sparks and other local communities," said Ensign. "These necessary infrastructure improvements to the Reno Airport will help continue the economic success in the surrounding region." *3

On May 9, 2007 it reported that, "Experts link high prices to production shortages that can be traced to a continued lack of refining capacity. A new refinery has not been built in America since 1976 because of high costs and bureaucratic red tape, which further increases our reliance on foreign oil. Diversifying our energy supply is also a critical component to a comprehensive plan, including environmentally safe exploration of Alaska's Arctic National Wildlife Refuge."

It is our pleasure to post the following information by "The Press Release of Senator Ensign" on April 25, 2007 from the Office of U. S. Senator John Ensign in Washington, D. C.:

ENSIGN WORKS TO KEEP AMERICA COMPETITIVE
America COMPETES Act Passes Senate

Washington, D.C. - Today the United States Senate passed legislation that addresses critical education needs and promotes basic research in math, science and technology. As Chairman of the Commerce Subcommittee on Technology, Innovation and Competitiveness last Congress, Ensign played a leading role in drafting the America COMPETES Act.

"America needs a boost in math, science, technology and engineering," said Ensign, who is now the Ranking Member on the Science, Technology and Innovation Subcommittee. "Even though we've always led the way in innovation, without this bill we risk losing our competitive edge to China and India."

The America COMPETES Act puts us on a path to remain competitive throughout the 21st Century by doubling the funding for the National Science Foundation and strengthening educational opportunities in math, science and engineering. Competitive grants to help struggling students in mathematics will be available, and states interested in establishing or expanding specialty schools in math and science will receive assistance.

"I'm a fiscal conservative, but the dollars we invest in basic research will come back to us in spades in terms of stimulating economic activity and helping the United States remain at the forefront of global innovation," Ensign said on the floor of the Senate during debate today.

Last year Senator Ensign was tapped by the Senate Majority Leader to coordinate the efforts of several Senate committees - Commerce; Energy; and Health, Education, Labor and Pensions (HELP) - in order to craft the America COMPETES Act. [Wednesday, April 25, 2007] *4

John's wife, Darlene, encouraged him into his first political race for Congress. Earned a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree from Colorado State University in 1995, his scholarstic and gentle appearance has won him lots of applause and respect from knowledgeable ladies and gentlemen in educational events and social activities.

"In the first paragraph of this column on September 15, it stated that on September 7, U. S. Senate Candidate John Ensign wrote: "Please accept my best wishes as you come together in celebration of the Thai Performaning Arts, Appreciation Day 2000. The importance of sharing culture through art and festivities that bring people together serves to enhance all of us more by enriching our lives with the diversity of people and their customs. I especially would like to extend my appreciation to Dr. Tony T. Lei for his commitment and enthusiantic support of the Thai Performing Arts." He accepted Dr. Tony T. Lei's invitation as a Guest Speaker to talk about protecting Social Security and Medicare for our Nevadan seniors at a Forum held by Seniors United. He believes that America must honor its word to seniors," reported the Nevada Examiner.*7

"On October 15, John attended the worship service of the Liberty Baptist Church. He offered a short speech of testifmony. He said that he was so frustrated of his first time to taste political failure, when he lost by a mere 428 votes to U. S. Senator Harry Reid. He believes God. He has surrenderring his fate to God. As a born-again Christian, people has inspired of his sincererity, humbleness, and credibility much more than just of his appearance now. In the Pastor Teis' meeting Office, John agreed with Dr. Tony T. Lei that WBTI would honor him as Advisor (effective on 10/17) and Vice Chairman (effective on 11/08 when elected as Senator) of its Advisory Board. If a window was closed, God might re-open the window or even open a door for the people who is eager to utilize his or her knowledge and expertise to serve. The matter is that we should believe God. Congretulations! Republican U. S. Senator-elect Honorable John Ensign." *8

"Since taking office, Senator Ensign has worked hard and fulfilled his promises to the people of Nevada. His Education High Growth Grant amendment, which brings tens of millions of extra dollars to Nevada schools, was included in the education bill signed into law by President Bush," pointed out the bio for U. S. Senator John Ensign.*9

"Senator Ensign~{!/~}s commitment to the environment also resulted in the enactment of the Ensign-Reid Clark County Lands Bill which protects environmentally sensitive areas in southern Nevada, allows recreational opportunities to continue, and improves the quality of life for all citizens. Thanks to Ensign~{!/~}s leadership, similar land bills for White Pine and Lincoln Counties were signed into law and have provided an economic boost while preserving the pristine beauty of our state. The legislation included funding to reduce the threat of catastrophic fire in the Great Basin Area and eastern Nevada as well as protections for our valuable outdoor areas such as Lake Tahoe, the Ballardini Ranch, and the eastern Sierra."

Extended from his encouragement and inspiration to educational and community services, Senator John Ensign has been an Advisor and Vice Chairman of the Advisory Board of Washington Business and Technology Institute (WBTI) since November 8, 2000.

Scorching temperatures, dry brush, and our arid climate have turned our state into a tinderbox. A single lightning strike, careless campfire, or the toss of a cigarette out a car window is all it takes to start a wildfire that could destroy tens of thousands of acres of land, reduce homes to ashes, and ruin lives.*2

Summer has only just begun and wildfires have already charred more than 100,000 acres of our great state—literally hundreds of square miles of our precious wildlands have gone up in smoke. An extended fire season is predicted for Nevada, so we have a long summer ahead of us.

[[[ Two colorful pictures. ]]]

Right now, thousands of brave men and women are putting their lives on the line to battle these fires. Working in triple digit temperatures, blinding smoke and rugged terrain, they continue to fight to keep safe our homes and communities. I commend the efforts of these brave firefighters. We owe them nothing but our greatest respect and thanks.

I will be meeting with the Chief of the U. S. Forest Service this week to discuss the current wildfires and strategies for dealing with increasing fire threats across Nevada in the future. And I will continue to monitor firefighting efforts throughout the state and remain in close communication with the Bureau of Land Management, the U. S. Forest Service, and other local firefighting forces throughout this fire season.

We must remember important safety information to keep more fires from igniting and to protect our homes and communities from the damages caused by these disasters. I urge you to visit www.livingwithfire.info for further information on fire prevention and safety.

Farmers and Ranchers who have experienced losses because of these fires should contact their local Nevada State Farm Service Agencies. The Farm Service Agency provides assistance for losses or damages to crops that result from these fires and their aftereffects. For more information, please click here.

During difficult times like these, Nevadans have always come together to help one another out. I have always taken pride in the sense of community Nevadans share and the efforts we take to aid those in need. If you would like to learn how to get involved in local fire safety efforts, please visit the Nevada Fire Safe Council website at www.nvfsc.org.

If you would like more information about the work my office is doing on wildfires, please visit my website at reid.senate.gov.

*1. About U. S. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid: U. S. Senator Harry M. Reid is the Democratic Leader (the Majority Leader) in the U. S. Senate. He is a man who commands the respect of colleagues from both parties, and a powerful advocate for Nevada’s middle-class families.
But he still lives in Searchlight … and he is still guided by the lessons and values he learned there.
The Las Vegas Sun newspaper summarized Reid’s story by saying that he “has gone from underdog to Senate’s top dog.”
Parade Magazine, the nation’s largest weekly magazine, identified Senator Reid as one of a handful of leaders in Washington with “integrity and guts.”
Since Nevadans elected him to the Senate in 1986, Harry Reid has developed a reputation as a consensus builder and a skillful legislator. Even his Republican colleagues praise his reasoned, balanced approach.
Senate Judiciary Chairman Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) has said, “We all respect Senator Reid. He is one of the moderate voices around here who tries to get things to work.”
And former GOP Leader Trent Lott said, “Harry Reid is out there finding a solution. I enjoy working with him very much.”
He was elected to the Senate in 1986, and re-elected in 1992, 1998 and 2004. He has served as the chairman or senior Democratic member on several important committees and subcommittees.
Reid is a tireless worker, and it isn’t unusual for him to be the first Senator of either party to arrive at the Capitol in the morning and the last to go home at night.

Emotional Intelligence is a way of
recognizing, understanding, and choosing
how we think, feel, and act.
It shapes our interactions with others
and our understanding of ourselves.
It defines how and what we learn;
it allows us to set priorities;
it drives many of our daily actions.

Dr. Sun-yuan Kung had a great deal of achievements in the recent years. The paper entitled "A unification of network coding and tree-packing (routing) theorems" that written by Yunnan Wu, Kamal Jain, and him was an example. It was published on the "IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking (TON) archive, Volume 14 , Issue SI" in June 2006. The Publisher was IEEE Press in Piscataway, NJ, USA. More of them have been shown in the following posted article ("Dr. Sun-yuan Kung (貢三元) ---a famous Professor of Electrical Engineering at the Princeton University").

Beside his academic achievement, last year Dr. Kung wrote an article in Chinese on "How to receive success, self-confidence, and happiness by young people? (青年人如何获得成功、自信、快乐)".

Early in September, I spoke to many college students in Beijing. At the time when I was ready to take the freight to go back to U. S., Managing Director Dr. Harry Shum (沈向洋) of Microsoft Research Asia (微软亚洲研究院) requested me to write down the findings of communication. "He believes that will benefit many more Chinese young people," said Sun-yuan.

Professor Sun-Yuan Kung*3
Homepage
Email: [???]
Abstract of talk

Sun-Yuan Kung received his Ph.D. Degree in Electrical Engineering from Stanford University. In 1974, he was an Associate Engineer of Amdahl Corporation, Sunnyvale, CA. From 1977 to 1987, he was a Professor of Electrical Engineering-Systems of the University of Southern California. Since 1987, he has been a Professor of Electrical Engineering at the Princeton University. Since 1990, he has served as an Editor-In-Chief of Journal of VLSI Signal Processing Systems. Dr. Kung is a Fellow of IEEE. He was the recipient of 1992 IEEE Signal Processing Society's Technical Achievement Award for his contributions on "parallel processing and neural network algorithms for signal processing". He was appointed as an IEEE-SP Distinguished Lecturer in 1994. He received 1996 IEEE Signal Processing Society's Best Paper Award. He was a recipient of the IEEE Third Millennium Medal in 2000. He has authored more than 300 technical publications, including three books "VLSI Array Processors", (Prentice Hall, 1988) (with Russian and Chinese translations), "Digital Neural Networks", Prentice Hall, 1993, and "Principal Component Neural Networks'', John Wiley, 1996.*4

Dr. Sun-yuan Kung was a Kenote Speaker at The First IEEE Pacific-Rim Conference on Multimedia (2000 International Symposium on Multimedia Information Processing) on December 13-15, 2000, at the University of Sydney, Australia.

Dr. Kung presented a paper at the IEEE-PCM2000 plenary. The title was "Adaptive Techniques for Intelligent Internet Multimedia Communication".*5 The following was his Abstract:

The new trend of information processing world has rapidly converged to three major technological fields: internet, multimedia, and wireless. In this talk, we will attempt to offer a technological and applicational justification of intelligent technologies for internet multimedia computing/communication. We shall also illuminate how intelligent integration of signal processing and neural net techniques could be a versatile tool to a broad spectrum of multimedia applications. Some examples of adaptive techniques (or neural networks) with applications to internet multimedia commuincation will be
demonstrated.*6

Multimedia technologies will profoundly change the way we access information, and they provide a new opportunity for research interactions among a variety of media such as speech, audio, image, video, text, and graphics. The inevitable merger of the computer industries and information-based consumer and communication industries inevitably introduces new challenges. We investigate various research issues relevant to intelligent multimedia communication applications and implementation technology. We study various adaptive and content-based technologies for MPEG-4 applications, such as compression, indexing, and retrieval of visual information. We look into various areas in video coding and segmentation, including true-motion tracker, global-motion compensated VOP (video-object-plane) coding, video representation, multicue, and multicamera fusion, three-dimensional structure-from-motion analysis, and spatial-temporal interpolation. We study an algorithmic framework that fuses spatial, visual, and motion information from a variety of preprocessing sources: object tracker, motion edge analysis, and so on.*7

Neural networks have become one of the core techniques facilitating intelligent multimedia communication technologies. They are very effective when applied to detection or recognition of high-level features (for example, faces) and multimodality recognition and authentication. These have many critical applications to information representation/retrieval and Internet security, and many focal applications in MPEG-7. For these, we have developed a versatile decision-based neural network that bears a modular structure, while taking advantage of both unsupervised and supervised learning strategies. We look into novel neural network techniques on multisensor classification, hierarchical processing, probabilistic (fuzzy) neural networks, object detection and tracking, and content-based compression and representation.

Another major challenge lies in real-time processing speed, a key barrier before online access of massive visual information can become a reality. In fact, it is communication, instead of computing, that will be the processing bottleneck. Thus, the development of the computer technology must be closely intertwined with the information-based consumer and communication technologies. We have studied for a long time the research issues involving design and implementation of VLSI multimedia signal processing circuits and systems. Novel communication and networking technologies will be critical in order for multimedia database systems to support interactive dynamic interfaces. Truly integrated media systems must connect with individual users and content-addressable multimedia databases. This will involve both logical connections to support information-sharing and physical connection via computer networking and data transfer. Our research stresses hierarchical and scalable multimedia architecture platforms, fast architectures by minimizing memory accesses and IO operations, and systematically mapping multimedia algorithms to the new architectures. Ultimately, our research will support development of real-time information-processing systems combining digital video and audio, text, and graphics.*8

Secretary of the U. S. Department of Labor, Elaine L. Chao sent a message to speakers and attendees of Emerging Information Technology Conference.

Secretary of the U. S. Department of Labor, Elaine L. Chao wrote a message to speakers and attendees of Emerging Information Technology Conference (EITC 2002), the letter was presented by her representative in this region, Ms. Angelica O. Tang in the EITC Luncheon Brown Bag Talks.

"Our ancestors' dreams inspired them to cross a wide ocean in search of opportunity and prosperity. As the EITC so admirably represents, more and more Chinese Americans are taking their rightful place in this country's science and engineering professions, combining their individual talents with the rich cultural values of family and education. I am pleased to share with you that since taking office, President George W. Bush has demonstrated his commitment to our community by naming more than 90 Asian Pacific American appointees. Nineteen of these positions are Presidential appointments requiring Senate confirmation including, for the first time in our nation's history, two Asian Pacific Americans to the Cabinet. I am also pleased that at the U.S. Department of Labor, I have appointed the highest number of Asian Pacific Americans to top leadership positions. My team and I have launched a number of initiatives, ranging from small business development to training grants, to assist the growing Asian Pacific American community," Secretary Chao said in her letter.

Ms. Tang presented Secretary Chao's letter to EITC Conference Program Chair, Dr. Mow S. Lin of Brookhaven National Laboratory. Ms. Tang was also greeted by Princeton Township Mayor Phyllis L. Marchand, and EITC Conference co-chairs, Dr. Chun-Yen Chang, Professor and President of National Chiao Tung University, and Dr. Sun-Yuan Kung, Professor of Princeton University, as well as the EITC speakers and attendees.*9

Like it is for President Dr. Andrew Benton of Pepperdine University, the above example inspires us that significant messages from U. S. Senator Harry Reid, Congresswoman Shelley Berkley, Secretary of Labor Elaine Chao, Nevada Governor Jim Gibbons, and among others posted by WBTI have been shown by leading search engines on the Internet promptly.*12

E.Q. has already been familiar with people these years, but not A. Q. We hope that the findings on "I.Q., E.Q., and A.Q. for success" by Dr. Sun-yuan Kung will become an effective strategy for young people to drive at wisely!
