Iraq War Coalition Fatalities Flashed [Mesopotamia Macromedia]

emmineb — Mon, 11 Dec 2006 08:09:11 GMT

Iraq War Coalition Fatalities is a chart of the US and coalition military fatalities that have occurred in Iraq since the onset, mapped across the dimensions of time and space. It is an ongoing project that is updated regularly, and will continue to go on as long as the war does. The animation runs at ten frames per second -one frame for each day- and a black dot indicates the geographic location that a coalition military fatality occurred. Each dot starts as a white flash and a larger red dot which fades to black over the span of 30 frames/day, and then slowly fades to grey over the span of the entire war. Accompanying the visual representation is a soft 'tic' sound for each fatality, the volume of which increases relative to the number of fatalities that

John R. Boyd: Organic Design for Command and Control - May 1987

emmineb — Wed, 07 Mar 2007 15:39:30 GMT

<> <> 1. This title provokes a couple of questions * Why the focus on C & C? * What do we mean by "organic design"? 2. Failures The past few years have seen the fiascoes associated with the Nifty-Nugget and Proud Spirit C & C exercises, together with the real world fiascoes epitomized by the evacuation of Saigon, Desert I, and others. Response The institutional response for overcoming these fiascoes is: more and better sensors, more communications, more and better computers, more and better display devices, more satellites, more and better fusion centers, etc.--all tied into one giant fully informed, fully capable C&C system. This way of thinki

La tentation du Tout

emmineb — Sat, 24 May 2008 09:01:47 GMT

Alors existe-t-il un moyen de quadriller le territoire à la fois plus complètement, plus précisément et avec moins d’efforts. La réponse est oui. Comment ? Grâce à certains outils et services d’ores et déjà disponibles qui permettent de ne plus rien perdre d’une session de surf et, plus globalement, de tout ce que l’on fait sur le web et qui, une fois réduit à sa plus simple expression, se trouve être une suite de clics (clickstream). Des clics comme autant de pas vers un objectif, pas en avant, de côté, de géant, en arrière parfois, mais pas qui tracent inexorablement des pistes inédites dans le web, nouveaux chemins qui se voient attribuer la valeur qu’on accorde à toute « carte au trésor »<>

NCSE Resource: Islamic Scientific Creationism: A New Challenge in Turkey (by Ümit Sayin & Aykut Kence)

emmineb — Thu, 14 Dec 2006 12:12:44 GMT

At the time that "Creation Science: A Successful Export?" was published in RNCSE (Matsumura 1998), there was an notable debate among intellectuals, scientists, lay people and fundamentalist Islamists concerning Islamic scientific creationism in Turkey. Since the early 1990s, the Science Research Foundation (Bilim Arastirma Vakfi, or BAV) has undertaken a new mission of spreading an Islamic version of scientific creationism in Turkey, the ideology of which was mainly imported from the US. However, it was not until late 1998 that many scientists and academics, as well as Turkish science institutions, such as TUBITAK (the Turkish Scientific and Technical Research Council) and TUBA (the Turkish Academy of Sciences), protested the pseudoscience of BAV and publis

Obsidian Wings: Wiki THIS

emmineb — Fri, 02 Nov 2007 08:57:13 GMT

Glenn Reynolds laments that he's been wiki'ed with a truly bizarre Wikipedia entry on Instapundit. "WIKIPEDIA, and its trustworthiness, has become a topic of considerable discussion," he writes. Indeed, it should be -- this whole Wiki-thang has been a bit Arthur 2 (i.e., "on the rocks") for a while. Eugene Volokh and Orin Kerr have been quite right in their criticisms (even though it seems that Volokh's Wikipedia entry is at least tentatively grounded in fact.) Moreover, adding to the confusion and potential for bias is the fact that you're able to write your own entry. The entry on LGF, for instance, was written by LGF's own Charles Johnson.

On the Psychology of Military Incompetence: Books: Norman F. Dixon

emmineb — Mon, 23 Oct 2006 01:14:25 GMT

"Everyone who manages anyone should be required to read this book. By focussing on the military Dixon has written a book crammed with examples that show the drastic consequences of incompetence. In management situations it's seldom a matter of life and death (despite the way some bosses act) but the consequences are still there: demotivated, under-utilised, confused and stressed staff. So if you're the boss and this sounds familiar you should read this book and learn it's lessons."

emmineb — Fri, 04 Jan 2008 17:42:19 GMT

A pastebin, also known as a nopaste, is a web application which allows its users to upload snippets of text, usually samples of source code, for public viewing. It is very popular in IRC channels where pasting large amounts of text is considered bad etiquette. A vast number of pastebins exist on the Internet, suiting a number of different needs and provided features tailored towards the crowd they focus on most.
