Who are they to blame for their problems? Top of the list is government.

News organizations seem to have lost their backbone and just seem to skim the surface, probably because its way less effort to swim along the surface than to hold your breath while taking a deep dive.
There are two basic forms of political views and philosophy that may result in different political parties. This is very close to be the situation in the United States but it also works for other nations, too. The concept starts out being extremely simple to conceptualize. The first is the view of “ME” a rather self centered view. The second view is “WE” which tends to include people outside my family, tribe and state.
The start up of Mexicoleaks seems to be similar to seeing two old wood war ships side by side shelling one another. Mexicoleaks appears to be a large cannon aimed at Mexico’s top politicians. Here is their stated purpose: “Méxicoleaks is a tool that allows you to send information of public interest media and civil organizations through secure technologies that guarantee the anonymity of the source. Under transparency and citizen participation in society seeks to build justice and democracy.” The…
In studying sociology I found a singular concept that almost works like a tool to uncover hidden knowledge. That concept is called “empirical indicator”. This means “what we see” thus “shows us” something else. The idea is that there can be one or more things that we can see but may actually stand for some hidden meaning.

Actually, I have never read about how war plans are drawn up so this book was of interest for that reason alone. Beyond reading how the war plan process evolved another layer of very interesting insights were written about that I have never been…
I found that this book hard to put down for some really unusual reasons. On the one hand it was written in a dreary style and on the other it held a view that was very different and included information that was somewhat surprising.
In war it makes sense to initiate a surprise attack, choose soft targets that are unprepared for the attack and can result in measured success to advance your aims. North Korea did just that when it hacked Sony Pictures. But one must ask why did they follow the Japanese Pearl Harbor example? Why was Sony Pictures so important to take down? There is a similarity linking North Korea allegedly attacking Sony Pictures computer system through an attack and the Pakistan…
This American Life served up a rather shocking view, September 26, 2014, showing us an inside view of the inner workings of the New York Federal Reserve that appears to reveal how some administrators exhibit weakness and seem warm to the banks that they are expected to regulate. If a staff member shows backbone and tries to adhere to the mission of the institution they may find themselves out of a job. The sum total of this program seems to…
