Mr. Chairman , with your leave , I 'd like to just make one or two points about each of these options and then I 'm prepared to discuss all of them in more detail , as does the report I referenced earlier . This radiance , so apparent in the tropics , and which cannot be mistaken for any meteoric lustre , extends from the horizon obliquely upwards , and follows generally the direction of the sun 's equator . And I think , while this is not true of all of these children , it is certainly the reputation these children have . Hovering over this debate , as with all debates in Iran , stands the supreme leader , Ali Khamenei , and his relationship with these competing power centers . Established in 1996 under the direction of Paul E. Peterson , the Program on Education Policy and Goverance ( PEPG ) has distinguished itself as a significant contributor to the systematic analysis of education policy and governing arrangements . Ironically , in the context of procurement crises involving Iraq and Hurricane Katrina , Congress has been willing to appropriate additional funds for staff to identify and investigate mistakes after they have been made - - but not to appropriate funds to hire contracting officers to prevent mistakes from being made in the first place : Almost 500 Inspector-General , General Accounting Office , and auditing staff were assigned to post-Katrina oversight ( much though not all regarding contracting ) , while FEMA 's total contracting staff nationwide numbered a mere 40 . But this was a question which , I am willing to confess , occasioned me no little trouble in its solution . So we went through this process where we negotiated for several months and finally came up with a plan that incorporated all of our very different priorities . This , at first sight , would seem an inadequate dependence ; but it was by no means so , for the buttons were not only very strong in themselves , but so close together that a very slight portion of the whole weight was supported by any one of them . " There is a remarkable difference between the degree to which Americans and Europeans believe that they live in a land of opportunity . ' Now , not one of these officers for a moment suspected this metal to be any thing but brass . But even at [ page 16 :] this velocity , it would take me no more than 161 days to reach the surface of the moon . There are three broad varieties of plan B. All of these varieties were discussed at a workshop that former Secretary of Defense and my academic partner , William Perry , and I convened here in Washington . If Bush ’ s new military plan is a temporary step to buy time to move in the direction of the Iraq Study Group ’ s proposals of training Iraqi forces and gradually withdrawing American forces , there may be something to be said for it as one last chance , but only if it is accompanied by the diplomatic advice that the study group also suggested . We , by contrast , are weighted down by important ongoing and unresolved conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan , a runaway North Korean nuclear program , as I mentioned earlier , our need to adjust cautiously and prudently to China 's political and military rise , and above all , to the sprouting of post-9 / 11 versions of al Qaeda . If the United States cannot achieve even minimal success in Iraq - - a stable , peaceful and united country - - Saddam 's last hurrah will be in the ensuing regional chaos . I raise this example because it shows that government can play a leadership role rather than shifting responsibility . When one in every 1,000 inhabitants of a nation 's capital city is being killed every other month , there is no question that the country is failing . With this new program , people have to make co-payments up to approximately $ 2,250 . These popular , low-cost centers have already treated 144,000 new veterans . It was very certain that I could not do without sleep ; but I might easily bring myself to feel no inconvenience from being awakened at intervals of an hour during the whole period of my repose . Upon passing the hand over them they seemed to have protruded from their sockets in no inconsiderable degree ; and all objects in the car , and even the balloon itself , appeared distorted to my vision .
