''In time, those Unconscionable Maps no longer satisfied...''

''If we are to discuss the limitations of simulation, we must define what simulation is. The literature in the field is of limited usefulness in tying down exactly what the term describes. The more recent the document, the more likely it is that the author will quote several alternate definitions, reject them all and proceed to develop his own definition which is more general and less restricting than any of those given. The use of the term "simulation" seems to outgrow even the broadest definition. I will not attempt a precise definition, but as an alternate will suggest that the history of the development of simulation as we know it today may be a less rigorous, but more satisfying way to describe simulation. The origins of simulation are generally traced to the work of Von Neuman and Ulman in the late 1940's. They coined the term "Monte Carlo Analysis" to describe a technique whereby essentially deterministic problems, too expensive or complex to solve analytically, could be solved by treating them as stochastic problems.''

''With friends like these...''

''The main argument of the thesis is that the use of the California National Guard (CNG) in response to major emergencies has both advantages and disadvantages as a model for countries in transition, such as Ukraine. Furthermore, it argues that civil- military relations in domestic support operations (DSO) are a very important factor to consider when new democracies try to build an effective system of emergency management. The author attempts to explain why the civil authorities, specifically in the United States, request military involvement in domestic emergencies while remaining suspicious about military involvement in domestic affairs. He discusses the reasons for military involvement in disaster relief and law enforcement operations, and the considerations and constraints by which the US federal legislation authorizes and limits it. The study is based on two cases of DSO in which the CNG participated as one of the leading agencies: the 1992 Los Angeles Riots as an example of military assistance in a civil disturbance operation and the 1994 Northridge Earthquake as an example of a disaster assistance operation.''

''Praise the Lord and Pass the Atomic Ammunition''

This must be one of  the most  far fetched things you can find on the web. It makes the works of H.P. Lovecraft, P.K. Dick and W.S. Burroughs seem sedate by comparison. Like a prequel to A Canticle for Leibowitz. Amen!

''Air Force PSYOP forces support US national and military objectives through planned operations to convey information to target audiences. PSYOP provide a low-cost, high-impact method to deter adversaries and obtain the support of friendly or neutral target audiences. The effective use of PSYOP can provide asymmetrical advantages by exposing and exploiting adversaries’ resistance and psychological weaknesses to create uncertainty and ambiguity, thereby lowering their morale and will to fight and win. In combination with military operations, PSYOP can encourage popular discontent with the adversary’s leadership and degrade the enemy’s ability to conduct military operations.''

''Shortwave Numbers Stations are a perfect method of anonymous, one way communication. Spies located anywhere in the world can be communicated to by their masters via small, locally available, and unmodified Shortwave receivers. The encryption system used by Numbers Stations, known as a one time pad is unbreakable. Combine this with the fact that it is almost impossible to track down the message recipients once they are inserted into the enemy country, it becomes clear just how powerful the Numbers Station system is.''
