Text of Bush's address on
September 11, 2001 Posted: 11:14 PM EDT (0314 GMT)
(CNN) -- The text of President Bush's address Tuesday night, after terrorist
attacks on New York and Washington:
Good evening.
Today, our fellow citizens, our way of life, our very freedom came under
attack in a series of deliberate and deadly terrorist acts.
The victims were in airplanes or in their offices -- secretaries, businessmen
and women, military and federal workers. Moms and dads. Friends and
neighbors.
Thousands of lives were suddenly ended by evil, despicable acts of terror.
The pictures of airplanes flying into buildings, fires burning, huge
structures collapsing, have filled us with disbelief, terrible sadness and a
quiet, unyielding anger.
These acts of mass murder were intended to frighten our nation into chaos and
retreat. But they have failed. Our country is strong. A great people has been
moved to defend a great nation.
Terrorist attacks can shake the foundations of our biggest buildings, but
they cannot touch the foundation of America. These acts shatter steel, but
they cannot dent the steel of American resolve.
America was targeted for attack because we're the brightest beacon for
freedom and opportunity in the world. And no one will keep that light from
shining.
Today, our nation saw evil, the very worst of human nature, and we responded
with the best of America, with the daring of our rescue workers, with the
caring for strangers and neighbors who came to give blood and help in any way
they could.
Immediately following the first attack, I implemented our government's
emergency response plans. Our military is powerful, and it's prepared. Our
emergency teams are working in New York City and Washington, D.C., to help
with local rescue efforts.
Our first priority is to get help to those who have been injured and to take
every precaution to protect our citizens at home and around the world from
further attacks.
The functions of our government continue without interruption. Federal
agencies in Washington which had to be evacuated today are reopening for
essential personnel tonight and will be open for business tomorrow.
Our financial institutions remain strong, and the American economy will be
open for business as well.
The search is underway for those who are behind these evil acts. I've
directed the full resources for our intelligence and law enforcement
communities to find those responsible and bring them to justice. We will make
no distinction between the terrorists who committed these acts and those who
harbor them.
I appreciate so very much the members of Congress who have joined me in
strongly condemning these attacks. And on behalf of the American people, I
thank the many world leaders who have called to offer their condolences and
assistance.
America and our friends and allies join with all those who want peace and
security in the world and we stand together to win the war against terrorism.
Tonight I ask for your prayers for all those who grieve, for the children
whose worlds have been shattered, for all whose sense of safety and security
has been threatened. And I pray they will be comforted by a power greater
than any of us spoken through the ages in Psalm 23: "Even though I walk
through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil, for You are with
me."
This is a day when all Americans from every walk of life unite in our resolve
for justice and peace. America has stood down enemies before, and we will do
so this time.
None of us will ever forget this day, yet we go forward to defend freedom and
all that is good and just in our world.
Thank you. Good night and God bless America.
·The September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon and the abortive attack (possibly aimed at the White House or Camp David) that resulted in the crash of a jetliner in Pennsylvania has resulted in a new and extraordinary emphasis by the Bush administration on combating terrorism. During the last ten days key administration officials, particularly President Bush, Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, and Secretary of State Colin Powell, have repeatedly emphasized that their long-term objective is the destruction of terrorism – a goal to be achieved by the death or apprehension of terrorists, the destruction of their infrastructure and support base, and retaliation against states that aid or harbor terrorists.
Terrorism, however, was hardly ignored in previous administrations. In fact, at the beginning of the Reagan administration, Secretary of State Alexander Haig announced that opposition to terrorism would replace the Carter administration’s focus on advancing human rights throughout the world. Although opposition to terrorism never really became the primary focus of the Reagan administration or successor administrations, each of these paid signifiacnt attention to the issue and produced many important documents that shed light on the policy choices faced today. Terrorism has been the subject of numerous presidential and Defense Department directives as well as executive orders. Terrorist groups and terrorist acts have been the focus of reports by both executive branch agencies (for example, the State Department, CIA, and FBI) as well as Congressional bodies – including the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence and the Congressional Research Service. The General Accounting Office has also produced several dozen reports evaluating the U.S. government’s ability to prevent or mitigate terrorist strikes, including, one just yesterday, September 20, 2001.
The following documents, some of which were obtained under the Freedom of Information Act, include assessments of the terrorist threat and a CIA profile of Usama bin Ladin, presidential and Defense Department policy directives, the details about U.S. response to specific terrorist attacks, and evaluations of U.S. government preparedness to deal with terrorism.

保时捷911tubro的英文介绍
concept
When Porsche develops a new Turbo, enthusiasts don’t expect us to push the envelope. They expect us to shred it. The new 911 Turbo surpasses those expectations. It’s the first 911 Turbo with Variable Turbine Geometry (VTG). The first with actively controlled all-wheel drive. The first to reach 60 mph in less than four seconds. Altogether, it’s the most rewarding 911 Turbo yet.
design exterior
From the production of the first model in 1974, the 911 Turbo has never hidden its intent. The newest model continues this tradition with a design that is singularly powerful. Like the turbochargers under its skin, the body of the 911 Turbo is a model of aerodynamic control. The body’s aerodynamic profile has been painstakingly tested to create positive downforce at the rear, without speed-robbing drag. The drag coefficient is remarkably low at just 0.31.
The new front is designed to put onrushing air to optimum use. Massive air inlets direct cooling air to the twin radiators located in the car’s nose. High-powered lighting technology plays an important supporting role. The new headlamps echo the traditional 911 design, with the modern advantage of ultra-bright Bi-Xenon lighting and an integrated cleaning system. Compact fog lamps and turn indicators assist in creating undisturbed airflow.
The side air intakes behind the doors provide efficient air delivery to the twin intercoolers. As is typical in Porsche racing cars, air ducts are also directed to both the front and rear brakes; their cooling action plays a key role in eliminating brake fade. Black plastic sills along the sides of the body provide effective protection against stone chips.
The new 911 Turbo is much wider across the rear than the front. The generous wheel track and wider tires provide for massive lateral grip. The new engine lid design features an integrated rear splitwing spoiler; the upper wing element is automatically raised at approximately 75 mph (120 km/h) and lowered at around 37 mph (60 km/h). The purposeful side air outlets and fully enclosed twin tailpipes are a further indication of the power within.
interior design
The interior of the car is equally compelling and entirely designed around the driver. The high-quality surfaces include a full leather finish on the standard electric seats as well as the dashboard, doors and rear side panels. Two sports seat options are also available, one featuring adaptive adjustment. The standard equipment package includes a new gear-knob design - created exclusively for the 911 Turbo - and a three-spoke sports steering wheel featuring 1.57 in. (940 mm) of height and reach adjustment.
Every detail of the new 911 Turbo is a direct expression of power, composure and comfort. The design makes a clear statement: a new era has arrived for this legendary sports car.
history
Over the past century, the turbo concept has undergone multiple uses and refinements. It was first embraced by the aviation industry, which used turbochargers to provide more oxygen to engines during high-altitude flight. In the 1930s, turbochargers were applied to diesel engines, to compensate for their relatively slow acceleration.
Porsche was among the first to realize the potential of the technology for racing engines. Using high-boost turbochargers, Porsche engineers developed small displacement engines that produced astounding power for their size and weight.
Porsche’s first turbo racing car set the bar high, in every sense. The 917/10 was created for the 1972 CanAm Championship, which placed no restrictions on engine size or power. Porsche met the challenge with a five-liter, twin-turbo engine that developed 1,000 horsepower. It won half the series races and captured the championship. In 1973, Porsche fielded the 917/30. The most powerful Porsche ever, its 5.4-liter engine developed 1,100 horsepower. It proved practically unbeatable.
One year later, the first 911 Turbo was born. Arriving in the midst of the first oil crisis, it was a bold statement—and looked the part. Wider wheel arches were essential, to accommodate larger tires capable of handling 253 lb.-ft. of torque, the highest ever achieved by a 3-liter engine at the time.
Aerodynamic changes were also a must. These included a fixed front spoiler and the now-legendary rear wing, which helped keep the tires planted at speed. Developing 260 horsepower, the car could sprint from zero to 62 mph (100 km/h) in just 5.5 seconds. The legend had begun.
The second 911 Turbo arrived in 1977 with several notable advances. Its larger 3.3-liter engine was the first to feature an intercooler, which further improved intake air density and helped the car break the 300-hp barrier. With so much power on tap, brake performance was also enhanced with four-piston, aluminum fixed calipers and cross-drilled discs. In 1993, Porsche launched the last 911 Turbo to feature dedicated rear-wheel drive. Based on the latest 911 platform (Type 964), it used a 3.6-liter engine to achieve a major boost in output to 360 horsepower.
A technological tour de force, the Type 993 Turbo arrived just two years later. This was the first 911 Turbo with twin turbochargers, which helped develop power more quickly and smoothly. Although displacement was unchanged, output leapt to 408 horsepower. It was also the first Turbo with allwheel drive, providing greater active safety and driving dynamics.
In 2000, a new Turbo was introduced based on the Type 996. Although it too was powered by a 3.6-liter engine with twin turbochargers, this was a radically new power plant, featuring the first application of water cooling and the first use of VarioCam Plus in a 911 Turbo. These advances improved fuel economy while boosting performance to 420 horsepower, propelling the car to 62 mph in just over 4.2 seconds. In 2005, a Turbo S version boosted power to 450 horsepower.
For over 30 years, the 911 Turbo has established itself not as an icon, but as an iconoclast: Each generation has crushed old beliefs about the limits of sports car performance. The new 911 Turbo builds on that tradition. With its unprecedented acceleration and handling dynamics, it makes a thrilling leap forward in performance, ride comfort and visual presence.
