As the events in Baghdad are proving daily, cities can be engineered to radiate instability rather than dampen it. This is accomplished through acts that leverage three attributes of modern cities. These include: * Extreme mobility and interconnectedness (ie, high rates of automobile and cell phone ownership). * Complete reliance on high volume infrastructure networks. * Complex and heterogeneous social networks that are held together under pressure. Blitzing the system The key to unlocking the disruptive potential of cities within this new form of warfare, is to attack key points (systempu emmineb Mon, 23 Oct 2006 01:38:06 GMT http://globalguerrillas.typepad.com/globalguerrillas/2007/02/terrorist_netwo.html The media term "amorphous terrorist network" doesn't provide much for us to work with. That changes when you apply advanced network theory to the topic. A recent paper by the student Mitch Stripling called, "Embodying Terror Networks: How Direction Creates Structure" (PDF) is a great example of this. The paper starts with a strongly written review of how network theory has been applied to this topic. This review starts with the early work by Arquilla and Ronfeldt (Networks and Netwars) and their simplistic chain, star, and all-channel network topographies and continues to the highly connected hubs (which embodies both the vulnerability and resilience of this type of network topology) and power-law distributions of scale-free networks (for more, read the bri emmineb Fri, 16 Feb 2007 09:02:12 GMT http://gc.kls2.com/ # Introduction # Flight Paths # Locations # Flight Ranges # ETOPS # About the Maps # Great Circle Calculations emmineb Wed, 27 Sep 2006 16:45:32 GMT http://www.sacklunch.net/Latin/H/hodiemihicrastibi.html Definition of hodie mihi, cras tibi emmineb Mon, 01 Aug 2011 03:17:05 GMT http://www.creativereview.co.uk/crblog/how-id-sink-american-vogue/ Picture this: Anna Wintour has resigned. The sheer effort of keeping an immaculate bob and an unfeasibly large pair of sunglasses in place 24 hours a day has finally taken its toll. In a move that has shocked the fashion industry, American Vogue has appointed as her successor graphic-designer-turned-artist Scott King. For his first issue in charge, King decides that Vogue should have an anti-war theme. Oh, and it should also be free… emmineb Mon, 03 Mar 2008 15:52:10 GMT http://lifehacker.com/267361/how-to-find-latitude-and-longitude javascript:void(prompt('',gApplication.getMap().getCenter())); The always helpful Tech-Recipes has come up with an ingenius way to find latitude and longitude values for any location using Google Maps. You'll first need to look up an address (duh), but this trick only works if the address is centered (it's centered by default). So, moving the map around will not make this work. When the address you want to find latitude and longitude for is dead center, copy and paste this code into your browser bar: javascript:void(prompt('',gApplication.getMap().getCenter())); emmineb Tue, 15 Dec 2009 21:09:03 GMT http://www.wikihow.com/Virtualize-Your-Workforce Enterprise Mobility: The ability for an enterprise to communicate with suppliers, partners, employees, assets, products, and customers irrespective of location. <<management>> emmineb Wed, 09 Apr 2008 18:16:30 GMT http://www.ai.uga.edu/mc/WriteThinkLearn_files/frame.htm Michael A.
