If a 23 year old private can write entire databases worth of state secrets onto a Lady Gaga CD, then of course all of our enemies around the world have this information already. Wikileaks is not the reason for the leak. And Wikileaks could not have stopped the leak either. The fact that a 23 [...] As bad as the times seem, stability and prosperity were more uncertain for our ancestors. A long time ago, I was writing a report on ZPG‘s goals and long term impact. In the process, I read a bunch of New York Times papers from the 1960′s using a microfiche reader. The decade was full of [...] I’m finding it really difficult to complete a book these days. Then too, I haven’t publicly introspected for a while, and I am reading Blue Like Jazz, so I was inspired to to blog about the books that I haven’t finished. ——– Title: Kingdom Dreaming: The Intersection of Your Dreams and God’s Purpose For Your Life by [...] I’m reading a book by David Wilkerson that was written the year I was born. His black swan prophecy that predicts the punishment of the United States is at least as old as I am. But he is certainly right and he brings a different perspective to current events. And, clearly, Wilkerson has been received much [...] People in Detroit don’t know much about Matty Moroun, but he owns more land and has more money than anybody else in the state. Michigan has been in a recession for a very long time. Intuitively, you might expect university enrollment to increase during a recession, because people go back to school for new skills. Engineering is not seen as [...] Considering a tangential post, I notice that Mormons are getting all the credit for defeating "gay marriage" in California, and I currently count 1,657 news stories aggregated on Goggle News assigning some type of "blame" to the Mormons. It is odd that we are still talking about this when the election is over, and when the matter has [...] My favorite law professor would frequently end his interaction with students by rhetorically asking… "Are you sure?" with a skeptical look on his face. It is a good habit to get into (but you might lose a few friends). So, I thought I knew that spiders have 8 eight eyes, and I thought I knew that there are no black widow spiders in Michigan. Confession: I incubate [...] I cannot figure out the Jena 6 protest movement, which is being billed as the Civil Rights Movement of the 21st Century. http://www.detnews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070920/UPDATE/709200454 We have a gang of 6 men from one race kicking an unconscious man from another race. Nobody denies the beating was racially motivated. That sure sounds like a hate crime to me. But, [...] Michigan has been stuck in a one-state recession since 2001. Detroit and Flint are the most dangerous cities in the nation (#2 and #3). We are releasing felons from prison early because we can’t afford to incarcerate them. At least once a year, a released felon turns into a serial killer. I work at a university where tution goes [...] |
