Wolves and Such
Rock work circa 1980*White wolves at the White Wolf Mine? * Don't count it out too soon. The pack of wolves that the Arizona Department of Game and Fish introduced into the wild in the area have been sighted about eight miles from the hovel currently under construction. With highs in the 60's during Christmas week (not winter weather in the least), the construction is moving forward at an acceptable rate. More on that below. Wolves have not been harrying the tradesmen at the White Wolf Mine, but one would expect them to show enough respect to let the men keep on with their import... more »
Test Of Wills Islamic State Rebuilding Vs Iraqi Government Policing
The Islamic State is currently in a transition phase. It has been defeated on the battlefield and is switching back to an insurgency while trying to rebuild its cadres. The U.S. led Coalition recently said that it only numbered around 1,000 fighters in Iraq and Syria, a fraction of the amount it had just a year ago. In September and October the militant’s newsletter Al-Naba talked about no longer engaging in coventional battles as the group was suffering heavy losses and facing Coalition air strikes. It now has to not only get new followers, but set up networks, and find financing ...more »

The Charvaka Philosophy
The Charvaka School is believed to have existed in India in the 600 B.C.E or earlier than that. The School preached materialism, atheism, empiricism, and scepticism. The School is also known as the Lokayata because Brhaspati Laukya, also known as Brahmanspati, was its original founder. Brhaspati Laukya is the author of the Barhaspatya-sutras. As this work is no longer extant, it is difficult to have a clear understanding of the Brhaspati Laukya’s thoughts. To learn about the Charvaka philosophy we have to rely exclusively on the presentations made by the School’s avowed opponents, m... more »

There’s Only One Way to Stop China from Dominating Asia (Think NATO)
*Robert E. McCoy* *Security, * Weaker nations in the region need to form a military alliance, so that in unity they acquire the means to face down Beijing. Beijing is relentless in its pursuit of territory that it feels once was a part of the Middle Kingdom. A lack of coordination in resisting this irredentist activity is having consequences, for ignoring it merely delays – and worsens – the problem.

Many governments display hypocrisy when they say that they want to control inflation yet create those multiple taxes and bureaucracies that create inflationary pressure. In the energy sector, the most recent proposed tax hikes are in the excise tax of oil products of up to P6/liter, and... more »

Once zooming through the air, the scramjet sucks in and compresses air alrea... more »

In our focus on North Korea, don't forget Israel and the Middle East
There's every bit as much potential for conflict in the Middle East as there is on the Korean Peninsula. Strategy Page has a very insightful and useful summary of the current situation. Saudi Arabia and Kuwait have gone public in support of an Arab-Israeli alliance to oppose Iran. Many (Arabs, Israelis and Iranians) believe that such an alliance won’t last long but that is not crucial. The alliance only has to last long enough to halt the spread of Iranian power and influence. Israel has been through this before. The peace deals with Jordan and Egypt have largely held even though ... more »
"The Moment Of Truth"
*"The Moment Of Truth"* Truth. Everybody says they want it. They lie, of course, mainly to themselves. People don't want "Truth", they want a version of the truth that they can accept, something that conforms to their pre-conceived notions, that validates and affirms their own long-held beliefs. In some of our lives a moment arrives, usually unexpectedly, when suddenly the light turns on, a "eureka" moment of realization that everything we've been led to believe may not be what we thought, that reality may not be what we've been led to believe. This moment contains a great deal of d... more »
