    1. It's not uncommon for people to hold the idea that being "old" is related with low life quality. This thought brings people the idea that comparing with the younger generation, the old don't necessary need much care or even don't deserve using much social resource, because they are just "dying" in whatever way. Thus I think it's important to let people understand that old people can also have a life with high quality, thus it deserves us to work on that.

    1. China has slapped millions of dollars worth of fines on alleged offenders for violating anti-pollution rules, according to state media.

      Worth noting that another motivation for innovation is the growing repricusions of the externalities of legacy industries and companies. This is encouraging investment in sustainable solutions and opening the door for new way business who's costs are lower becuase their impact on the environment is lower.

    1. Without a presence of poverty in their lives, politicians don’t come to witness or understand the realities on the ground—and perplexingly, few observers seem to advocate that this needs to change.

      QUALITY

      Statement of consequences: if not corrected, politicians do not grasp the realities.

    2. Consequently, America’s political elite is often woefully out of touch with economic reality for those living in poverty—or even those struggling to stay out of it.

      QUALITY Statement of quality: the outcome of these issues are that politicians are cleally out of touch with the poor they represent.

      • How frequently do laws and legislation effectively correct issues of poverty?
      • Would more be possible if representatives were more economically divers?
    3. We can’t expect effective and humane policy without representatives who understand, witness, and investigate the experience that they control.

      QUALITY Statement identifying that without remedy policy and situations will not change.

      Publication indicators as proxies for quality. Despite the many problems with peer review, publication indicators are used to evaluate Scholars for hiring promotion, finding, and other Rewards. Weather appropriate or not, outputs of the system in the form of data, documents, and Publications are easier to measure than are the inputs such as Scholars time, education, reading of scholarly literature, and research activities in their Laboratories and libraries. More time in the laboratory or in the library does not necessarily translate into more or better research, for example. While it is understandable that the recognition of Scholars should be based heavily on quality assessments of their scholarly contributions to their fields, it is essential to distinguish clearly between quality of scholarship and the use of indicators such as the publication form and citation counts as proxies for quality.

    1. Put simply, various stakeholders seem to have different perspectives on how research assessment works currently and how it should work in the future. In order to move forward, we must first identify and then address a number of misunderstandings.

      This might be of interest, a project that we've put together for the Scholarly Communication Institute this year titled "The Qualities of Quality – Validating and justifying digital scholarship beyond traditional values frameworks": http://trianglesci.org/2015/05/15/the-qualities-of-quality/
