Are there any administrative matters,<br />

Michael, that we should discuss?<br />

MR. SPRAGUE: Just remember to speak into<br />

the microphone when you're there.<br />

GENERAL WILLIAMS: Okay.<br />

MR. SPRAGUE: Turn the light on, so Tim can<br />

hear you and get all your words down.<br />

GENERAL WILLIAMS: Okay, good.<br />

MR. SPRAGUE: And we'll probably make some<br />

short announcement right before lunch.<br />

GENERAL WILLIAMS: Right. I think each <strong>of</strong><br />

you know that because <strong>of</strong> the way we're chartered, we<br />

have a pretty accurate account <strong>of</strong> what we do here at<br />

the panel meeting. And obviously this is not to<br />

discourage anyone, because we just want transparency<br />

and a full disclosure, and that's what Tom does for<br />

us, and he does it quite well.<br />

Okay. We're going to get started this<br />

morning with an overview <strong>of</strong> the state <strong>of</strong> the<br />

organization. We do this each time, so that you<br />

have a clear understanding <strong>of</strong> where we are today.<br />

And you can help pass the word along and be informed<br />

<strong>of</strong> what we are doing.<br />

This first slide that I am going to<br />

present, if you would, focus now to your left and<br />
