Troops raid West Bank town, arrest 8 Palestinians
Associated Press

Military officials speaking on condition of anonymity said the eight men were militants from the violent Islamic Jihad group and were attempting to build homemade rockets. Residents, however, said none of the men were known militants.

I wonder if you had a magic box that could take you to the moment someone comes up with a good idea that would effectively change the way you do business, would you go there and crush it or learn from it, adapt from it, and evolve from it?

If you were walking and someone invented the wheel, would you hide it because it would seperate people from one another at greater and greater distances?

If someone invented the car, and you owned horses, you would try to convince people that it is no good?

If someone comes up with something better, what do you do?

I know what I would do, "It's evolution my Dear Watson."

You simply adapt or perish.
 
1.5 billion armed with the latest weapons
03.23.05 (7:57 am)   [edit]
The question of the arms embargo boils down to this: Will China change completely to a democratic society within the next 200 years?

Probaly not.

So, do we modernize an army, with a serious list of human rights abuses, with the population of 1.5 billion people, in serious need of clean water, natural resources and a host of other things, for the purpose of what?

Israel's New Jerusalem Plan Angers Palestinians

Mon Mar 21, 4:58 AM ET

JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israel plans to build 3,500 new homes for Jewish settlers in the occupied West Bank to cement its hold on Jerusalem, government sources said Monday, drawing Palestinian warnings that peace efforts were at risk.



"The road map requires a halt to settlement expansion in the West Bank and Gaza Strip (news - web sites), captured by Israel in the 1967 Middle East war and sought by Palestinians for a future state."

I wonder where this could lead ... :)
 
dna of ancient mysteries
03.20.05 (9:56 am)   [edit]
A lot of people have wondered what a lot of people looked like in the past. I for one would serious like to answer the question of what the pharoahs looked like.

No problem ;)

Just clone em based on DNA.

Pop that puppy in a DNA sequencer and check out that phenotype. I'm not saying look at the markers. Make a full scale person. I have no idea what he'd say but I'd bet it would be interesting.

navigaiton bar
03.19.05 (5:13 pm)   [edit]
I believe, hands down, that the best navigation bar you could possibly hope to create, must be created in flash. I've seen 2 approaches towards navigation bars.

1 Solid text with title and all the sub text below it. No movement, just solid text when you click on the appropriate nav title.

2 Dynamic bar created with flash.

That's it :)
 
real and virtual life
03.19.05 (2:59 pm)   [edit]
Okay, by George I've got it. In order to ensure the net resembles the real world and the real world falls in line with the net. We'll launch a campaign against sex on the internet and simultaneously do a second prong attack on the real world. From hence forth, all sex in the real world will be banned. All forms of nudity will be no more.

It sounds impossible but we can achieve this virtual and real dream. We'll ban all mirrors and ensure everyone have permanent babies suites implanted. We'll cover all statues that bear any resemblance to the human body and at the same time ensure that there is no form of sex on the net or anywhere. I say in about 140 years, all problems associated with sex will be completely irradicated.

What? Why are you staring at this post like that?

reading trade deficit
03.11.05 (8:04 am)   [edit]

I'm reading the US trade defecit and it is an indication that we have more to hold on to then sell.


We've got a lot of good technology we're not willing or eager to part with so, the stuff is pretty expensive. 


Oh, the stuff is very high tech so why part with it anyway?  Maybe we have something else cheap to sell.


Other countries have interesting stuff so we buy large quantities of things.


The thing to be sure of is we're not buying too much innovation from other countries but we do purchase the by product of a lot of innovation created here.  The things are invented and sent to factories abroad to be produced.


I'm thinking that if we relied more heavily on robotics, we wouldn't have to send things abroad ... but would that be good and or just?  Should we innovate and produce everything in warehouses here by using robots?  How will other people around the world eat?


I'm not saying that the United States is a hugh jaugernaut that the world is forced to depend on and without it the world would starve.  I'm just saying the United States is just a country in the global pie that sends things out to be produced remotely so others can benefit and we're not mizerly enough to hog all of this innovation to ourselves and not give others a chance to take part in it no matter what country it is.  A good question to ask of an economist who has a good whole-hearted or hearty understanding of global economics is:  If we produce a product that other countries want or need and it is expensive, will other countries buy it no matter what the cost?


I'm just rambling.


Another thing I wanted to point out is gas is kinda similar to something that will always be bought.  But I believe gas or anything that produces electricty will be replaced if a sound model is followed like this one:


 



    Alternative Energy   & nbsp;   &n bsp;   &nb sp;   &nbs p;     ; Natural Gas
 Y        *         & nbsp;   &n bsp;   &nb sp;   &nbs p;     ;         & nbsp;  ~
 |        & nbsp;  *         & nbsp;   &n bsp;   &nb sp;   &nbs p;     ;       ~

 |        & nbsp;   &n bsp; ~         & nbsp;   &n bsp;   &nb sp;   &nbs p;     ; *
 |        & nbsp; ~         & nbsp;   &n bsp;   &nb sp;   &nbs p;     ;       *
Cost    ~         & nbsp;   &n bsp;   &nb sp;   &nbs p;     ;         & nbsp;  *

Why do we stil need gas?  I don't know.  Maybe our altruism makes us support countries modernization endeavours.   Maybe our corporations need the profit that natural gas creates.  Maybe the corporations and the countries that need gas have also seen similar models of the model above and know through logic that the chart graph is true.  The more money you pump into an alternative energy source, the cheaper the alternative energy source becomes.  Natural gas will continue to rise no matter what you do because world population, according to the US Census will increase to 9 billion.  I do not believe there are more dinosaurs hanging around waiting to be used as an energy source so that means the supply of gas is not infinite but finite.  And heaven forbid someone invents something new that requires even more gas.


Oh, one last controversial issue is that more people from abroad, which is the highest number in years, who now reside in the United States require more goods from their home country.  So maybe the trade deficit is kinda tied to bunch of dependencis not neccessary but can be easily be produced here at a cheaper price with enough innovation.


Well, that's it for now :)


 
 
new motion picture delivery system
03.10.05 (8:18 am)   [edit]
Instead of movie theaters delivering movies to movie theaters, why don't the movie industry buy a powerful supercomputer?

Once they install the supercomputer, give it some serious bandwidth to all of the movie theaters.

Allow only those movie theaters that stream the movie from the super computer to show movies.

When the movie is complete, cut off the stream.

I really don't believe that anyone in between the movie theater and the supercomputer could intercept the packets due to the decentralized nature of the internet.

silly reporter
03.07.05 (8:09 am)   [edit]
Now I'm trying to understand the silly journalist believing she was a target of an assisination attempt.

Okay, if she was a target of an assisination attempt, what stopped it from going through? Three people in a car against whatever forces were there to stop a car. One journalist along in this mad, mad world, just minding her own business mind you. I may be wrong and the US forces may be running out of ammo or they had a certain feeling of saddness of being given orders to assisinate the journalist or, or, what the heck am I talking about? If they wanted to assisnate her, there could have been a mistaken bomb dropped on her car.

The problem is plain and simple: communication. If it were communicated who they were, in any form, they would have known. Did anybody see the one news story where that guy was in the building and the soldier says something like, "he's faking like he's dead" and then shoots him? They're in a situation in Iraq where death could come at anytime at any place. They don't have time for cars speeding or not speeding heading towards the airport without identifyiny itself. They're not pulling up to your local convience store just to buy a pack of cigarettes. These guys are crusing around town in cars where shifting gears means blowing up the car at a check point or not blowing up a car at a check point.

My only question is, could there had been better communication?
 
remote ghosts
03.04.05 (2:29 pm)   [edit]
Okay even better, how about you connect to a remote computer and the remote systems burns a copy of a ghost onto your computer. The ghost system includes all possible software you could need and you subscribe to it as a service.

You only need the ghost once.
 
p2p
03.04.05 (2:24 pm)   [edit]
Another thought that I came across is a concept that is developing from the idea of computers how they are presented now. All computers are connected and some have toyed with the idea of connecting all infrastructure to one systems who in themselves act autonmously. Also, some programs will need major upgrades in a distributed system that sends an upgrade to all Operating Systems on the infrastructured networked system.

You will also take into account that at some point, you would want all systems across a single networked system upgraded all at once.

The current development of P2P networked technology will allow for instant transfer of data (video, software or whatever) across a network with many systems connected together. Instead of one computer being upgraded, all computers connected to a single network will be upgraded with the same software across all computers.

It simply means all computers will become one single computer. I do not know how it will work out but at the current rate, paid for software could be replaced by open source software if all people within this CVS type networked computer infrastructure decide to opt in for an open source networked then a closed source network.

Pick out the bits and pieces that make since. :)
 
mistaken fire fight
03.04.05 (11:19 am)   [edit]

I'm trying to understand what type of intelligence miscommunication occurs when you can't properly identify an unknown vehicle heading for the Iraq airport.  This should be a very interesting story indeed.


The only thought that had to be going through the troops minds was "protect the airport."
 
p2p is the internet
03.03.05 (2:49 pm)   [edit]
Whenever you email someone, what do you hate the most? Attachments. You can't send attachements. The email is limited to the attachment size. P2P solves that problem. It makes it easier to send files larger then the max size allowed by emails.

What do you love about the internet. You love the fact that you can visit a pc on the internet and download a page from the computer and view it along with images that display it properly. This is the internet. If you don't believe me, look at your cache. It should be full of images you downloaded from computers every the time whenever you make a point-to-point connection.

The motion picture industry wants one thing only. They want to control the internet. Every facet of it. The want to control your computers and how you access the internet. They want to control what programs you write and how you think about writing programs. Before you write a program, you must be sure it doesn't infringe on their right to make a profit.

The technology will continue to change and advance and grow. The RIAA and motion picture industry will always be there because it will be embedded in everything you do. There will be a new limitation on what you can develop and sell. Right now, that does not exist. At this point in history you can make and sell anything. Putting these industries above the rights of the scientist who create and innovate for society will make the US not dependant on technology as a viable sector. You can now be comfortable that entertainment will now dominate your lives.
