Forget Orwell and Huxley. Dave Eggers has seen the future | Technology | The Observer

"Fifteen months have passed since Edward Snowden began to explain to us how our networked world works. During that time there has been much outrage, shock, horror, etc expressed by the media and the tech industry. So far, so predictable. What is much more puzzling is how relatively relaxed the general public appears to be about all this. In Britain, for example, opinion polling suggests that nearly two thirds of the population think that the kind of surveillance revealed by Snowden is basically OK."

What the Anti-Fracking Movement Brings to the Climate Movement | Perspectives | BillMoyers.com

"In New York state, we sought to halt fracking before it started because of what we saw across the border in the gaslands of Pennsylvania: families with nose bleeds and rashes. Sick pets. Horses and livestock with mysterious ailments. Devastated landscapes."

San Francisco Bay View » The lessons of Ferguson, Part One: Economic inequality a root cause of unrest

I am haunted by the words spoken by Lesley McSpadden immediately following the shooting death of her son, Michael Brown, at the hands of Ferguson, Missouri, police officer Darren Wilson almost three weeks ago. She said, "Do you know how hard it was for me to get him to stay in school and graduate? You know how many Black men graduate? Not many. Because you bring them down to this type of level, where they feel like they don't got nothing to live for anyway."

Chinese academics give their two cents on Ukraine crisis｜Politics｜News｜WantChinaTimes.com

"Ding Dong, a news commentator, said that if Beijing were to openly back Moscow, this would jeopardize relations with Ukraine as well as China's image, especially as the two countries signed a joint declaration of strategic partnership at the end of 2013."

China has enough serious emergy problems at home... It is so far behind in its ability to have an internal dialogue.

US leadership most necessary, no competition from China, Russia: Obama - Firstpost

'"The truth of the matter is that the world has always been messy. In part, we're just noticing now because of social media and our capacity to see in intimate detail the hardships that people are going through," Obama said at a Democratic Party fund raiser in New York."

So many youthful upstarts? Without a clue .... Showing effects of youthful testosterone.

Learner Chinese pilot loses control of fighter jet near American aircraft

'Kirby elaborated on the incident, saying that the Chinese jet: "crossed under the aircraft with one pass having only 50-100 feet separation. The Chinese jet also passed the nose of the P-8 at 90 degrees with its belly toward the P-8 Poseidon, we believe to make a point of showing its weapons load-out. And then they flew directly under and alongside the P-8, bringing their wingtips, as I said, to within 20 feet. And then conducted a roll over the P-8, passing within 45 feet."'

Guy must have forgotten how to slow down?

Taiwan and China concerned about future security

"No country would be as threatened by China's acquisition of the S-400 as Taiwan. As Defense News noted earlier this year, "At present, China's land-based mobile air defense missile systems, HQ-9 and S-300 can reach only a small sliver of northwestern Taiwan….However, with the planned purchase of the 400-kilometer-range Russian S-400 surface-to-air missile (SAM) system, China will for the first time have complete air defense coverage of Taiwan."

Discussing the implications of this for Taiwan's defense, York Chen, a former member of Taiwan's National Security Council, told Defense News: "When S-400s work together with Chinese land- and sea-based fighters, the Chinese will have more confidence in sustaining airspace dominance over the Taiwan theater, thus depriving any organized resistance by the Taiwan Air Force and deterring the American intervention."

China Eyes Russia’s S-400, Taiwan Seeks New Air Defense System | The Diplomat

"On the one hand, there have been more and more signs that China will become the first foreign customer of Russia's most advanced anti-missile system, the S-400. China's People's Liberation Army already operates the Russian-made S-300 anti-missile system, and Beijing and Moscow have reportedly been negotiating over the S-400 since 2010. These talks have reportedly been slowed by a number of issues, including Russia's concern that China would reverse-engineer the advanced anti-air and anti-missile system."

Business Forum: Are China and Russia ‘irresponsible’ traders? - Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

"Were Western nations naive to think that China and Russia would become responsible trade partners in the global trading system? Whatever our hopes may have been, these two giants have been irresponsible since joining the World Trade Organization. What's worse, so far they are getting away with it."

The Internet User's Best Kept Secret

Sketches from scratches is a provocative blogspot that has grown out of the Wuh Lax experience. It is eclectic, which means that it might consider just about anything from the simple to the extremely difficult. A scratch can be something that is troubling me or a short line on paper. From a scratch comes a verbal sketch or image sketch of the issue or subject. Other sites have other stuff that should really be of interest to the broad reader. I try to develop themes, but variety often comes before depth. ... more!
