  • The Secret Spies Of The Future, The CIA In 2025, Sure They Look The Same?

    The CIA robotic spies will look like you and I, talk, walk, eat, act and even make mistakes like us. But these will not be living, breathing organic humans. The Labs around the country are working on them now, by 2025 they will be everywhere. It is time to a have a serious discussion on artificial intelligence and the future of clandestine spies using artificial intelligence robotics.

    Isaac Asimov had artificial organic robots in his books. We all saw the movie AI. Will we be fooled in the future by robots posing as people? Will we care? This might be a great opportunity for spying? C ...

  • Which is Harder: To Know the Past or To Predict the Future

    Miscellaneous Idea and Concept. Something to think about, not relating to any particular topic, event or person. I would like to begin this quarter review of thoughts on both the past and the future. First it appears to be easier to predict the future than to guesstimate the past. For instance predicting the future seems to be much easier than that of the work of archeologists trying to piece together what happened based on clues and forensics. And to this point I wish to bring to point a few recent works. One is the work done by Stephen Wolfram where he shows how simple programs develop ex ...

  • The Things You’ve Been Led To Believe When Losing Weight
    So many techniques to lose weight have bombarded the market today. People's quest for a healthier, sexier and fitter body has unveiled more than a couple of ideas how to realize that quest.

  • Facts about Genetic research

    Genetics, or the science of genes, seems to be the future of modern medicine, and genetic research keeps gaining ground, but together with the great benefits and cures it can bring, genetic research poses a lot of moral and ethical problems, and it has been said that it could even threaten our civil rights and liberties.

    If genetic research continues to develop, parents will be able to have exactly the children they want, and they could plan his life even before his birth. And is this 'right'?Other thing that genetic research could lead to is genetic discrimination - already a numbe ...

  • Bodyguard Training in Mexico; My Experiences While Providing BG Training in Mexico

    Mexico the country of Salsa, Tortillas and Corruption; I first arrived in Mexico City in February 2002 as an instructor for the WFB – the World Federation of Bodyguards. A Mexican security service had contracted Anders Sorenson, the Norwegian WFB instructor and I, to set-up a training program for BG’s in Mexico.

    I came through customs and the weapons search, shaking my head at the Mexican officials who only spoke Spanish, making my visa interview a complete waste of time.

    That was one of my first lessons about Mexico; almost all Mexicans dream of going to the US to live however, ...

  • An Interview - on history and educational media
    AN INTERVIEW:
    1. Can you briefly summarize why you think history is a weapon of war against people?

    Briefly?, not really, except to say Sun Tzu wasn’t the first to notice that propaganda was the first and most important part of conquest. Caesars won more through secret deals and blackmailing the likes of Herod and the Sanhedrin than they ever did through force of arms. We saw how guerillas work against a conqueror in Vietnam and even in Iraq at the present. I have written about fifty books. The framework for a new history that is based on forensics and science or artifacts rather tha ...
