  "Gifted children are often keenly aware of their internal asynchrony. They frequently experience frustration because they are able to do some things very well but cannot manage other things nearly aswell. They are able to visualize finished products that they cannot construct because of un-developed motor skills. It seems to be part of their nature to regard tasks that come easily to them as trivial and to value only those that are challenging." --- James T. Webb, Edward R. Amend, Nadia E.

  "In Malaysia, for example, the Chinese minority received more than 400 degrees in engineering during the decade of the 1960s, while the Malay majority received just 4... Lagging groups and lagging nations tend toward the easier subjects, rather than such difficult fields as mathematics, science, engineering, and medicine.

  "Think of a time in your life when you mastered a difficult skill.   It seemed hard at first & then became simple.   There was a sudden click when it fell into place & became easy, effortless.   A would-be marathon athlete will train hard, feeling the pain as he concentrates on building a runner's body.   And then 1 day when he is huffing & puffing around the track, he suddenly runs with the wind.   That's mastery.   That's what we're after here -- the fluid rhythm of the karate expert...   On pages 75 to 90, get us effortlessly through the crisis.   Look at the rhythm of the scenes.   Have them build.   Have them tie off earlier scenes...   Let your hero show mastery now." --- Viki King 1988 _How to Write a Movie in 21 Days_ pg 108

historically ignorant ACLU claims no country's military defense forces belong along the country's border: Polk sent regular army troops under Zachary Taylor, Winfield Scott, Stephen Kearny, & Alexander Doniphan to enforce the border; regressive president Woodrow Wilson sent regular army troops under Jack Pershing to try to capture invaders of New Mexico; Shrub & Obummer both sent several thousand militia troops to do non-military work to help secure the USA-Mexico border

SecDHS Kirstjen Nielsen: maintenance/replacement of existing failing border fencing is the only semblance of additional miles of fence/wall, let alone effective 1954 miles of wall/fence required only for the USA-Mexico border out of the total of about 7,500 miles of USA land borders

chairman of JPMorgan Chase & Company bank Jamie Dimon wants more cheap, young, pliant, low-skilled labor with flexible ethics; dredges up idiotic notion of giving every foreign master's or doctorate recipient from any close-cover-before-striking "college" a green card, no matter how many better, brighter, more able USA citizens apply for jobs
"...'Most students from countries outside the United States pay full freight to attend our universities but many are forced to take the training back home.'   [You're right, Jamie D., the State Department is giving out far far far too many student visas, and USCIS & DoS standards for approving applicants are far far too low.   We should reduce the numbers of student, exchange, guest-work, and green card visas.]... JPMorgan...requested roughly 6K H-1B visas since 2014..."

Charles Koch: we are working hard against president Trump, USA citizens, & tariffs against over-priced, cheap, shoddy, Red Chinese products; the more USA high-tech goods we ship to Red China for them to reverse-engineer, the more intellectual property we deliver to them through multiple channels (student visas, guest-work visas...), the fewer able & willing USA citizens we have to employ at USA costs of living, training investments, & market prices, the more control we hand over to Red China & India & VietNam governments of our off-shore operations, the better a few in the USA think they will like it

Sheryl Sandberg confessed FB is dragging heels against reducing their violations of privacy
Charlie Nash: Breitbart: unethical Mark Zuckerberg to testify to largely similarly corrupt senate committee
Lucas Nolan: Breitbart: unethical FB was scheming to unethically obtain personal private medical info from similarly unethical hospitals right up to last month: For the first time in history, suckers are sharing information about themselves on-line in ways that may help determine how to destroy their health if their politics are different from ours
Sean Moran: Breitbart: Earl L. Carter/Buddy Carter (R-GA-1) notes that unless FB, Alphabet/Google/YouTube, Oracle, Twit, MSFT, LinkedIn... clean up their acts, look for congress-critters to make them get it correct... which would be an historical first, so do not hold your breath
James Delingpole: Breitbart: smash big tech's unethical cabal now
This is info FB should not be collecting in the first place, let alone retaining it and aggregating it, let alone making it easy for other firms to grab and aggregate.   OTOH, the anti-trust laws have never had a positive out-come... especially with federal & state utility commissions, and county/parish & village/town/city governments imposing monopolies instead of taking every opportunity to require competition and consumer options (all the while taking more or less indirect, thinly-disguised bribes blessed by the sheister guilds, the state legislators, ethics boards, and equally corrupt judges).   In this environment,the "break-up" of the Bell system monopoly was short-lived; high-sounding laws and regulations for co-generation were pecked apart by the power-mad monopoly enforcers and their willing tools in the bureaucracy.   And again, when it comes to privacy legislation, as well as standards for obtaining visas, they are composed in such a way as to be fairly easily undermined... though the corrupt judges are often apt to render them moot by the most ridiculously incredible assertions.

  "For example, a highly gifted child in 2nd grade may be reading at a 9th-grade level, but may have math skills at the 6th-grade level and fine-motor skills at a 2nd-grade level. The internal asynchrony is dramatic, and it can be quite a challenge to decide upon appropriate school placement and educational modifications to match the program to the child. Flexibility is the key to meeting the needs of these asynchronous children." --- James T. Webb, Edward R. Amend, Nadia E. Webb, Jean Goerss, Paul Beljan, F. Richard Olenchak & Ronald E.

"...King highlighted the impact of [Red Chinese] tariffs on American pork exports on Smithfield Foods as ironic, given the [Red Chinese government] ownership of the company... a plate of steel that was about two feet by four feet, plain steel, 25% tariff on that steel coming in out of [Red China], foreign countries all together, and then next to it was a piece of steel same size, they'd bent it a couple of times and bored a [2 or 3] holes in it, that as processed steel, and that would come back from [Red China] without tariff..."

  "I taught myself to quietly endure pain & tension, anger or elation, without giving away even the faintest expression of those emotions.   Success on the mat often depends on hiding all such emotions from your opponent; success in acting usually calls for just the opposite, the visible & believable expression of one's emotions.   When I started my career as an actor, I suddenly had to learn how to bring all those feelings to the surface & then manipulate them.   It was hard & more than a little disconcerting.   Eventually, however, I found a way to use my skills as a karate expert in the creation of movies, & I did so by realizing that conflict is usually the basic essence of a dramatic scene, & conflict was something with which I was abundantly familiar." --- Chuck Norris 1996 _The Secret Power Within_ pg 174
