RECOMMENDED READING<\/b><\/p>\n
I have a ” mega-blogging” session scheduled for Sunday as I have some committments today that are going to preclude writing anything weighty but I will try to put a few items up throughout the day. I come out of a U.S.-Soviet diplo history and econ history background and as such, following economic, ideological and intel developments were always critical to trying to understand the big picture.<\/p>\n
There are profound, revolutionary, changes going on in the world right now. Globally, it is 1789, 1848 and 1945 rolled into one. I can’t recall a time period, except perhaps from the “ Benning Revolution<\/a>” to Hiroshima where U.S. military doctrine and structure needed to undergo ( and went through) such a dramatic shift. And I fear I am understating.<\/p>\n Well, with that in mind, here are some things to ponder:<\/p>\n Dr. Von<\/a><\/strong> on “ A Step Toward Quantum Computing<\/a>“. This is a critical breakthrough technology.<\/p>\n Kobayashi Maru<\/a><\/strong> on the little known routing of electronic communications <\/a>in light of the NSA story.<\/p>\n Dr. Lubos Motl<\/a><\/strong> on the concept of Sustainability<\/a>.<\/p>\n The Drs. Eide<\/a><\/strong> on the neuroscience of visual media communication<\/a>. Want to craft a global, universal, message ?<\/p>\n Disturbing news from GlobalSecurity.org<\/a><\/strong> that the U.S. military is just starting<\/em><\/strong> to fundamentally invest in building and organizing <\/a>a first-class counterintelligence information system. All I can say here is, WTF ? Better late than never, I suppose.<\/p>\n Ad hoc design is not strategic policy.<\/p>\n That’s it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" RECOMMENDED READING I have a ” mega-blogging” session scheduled for Sunday as I have some committments today that are going to preclude writing anything weighty but I will try to put a few items up throughout the day.
