Keeping Sailors Out of the MinefieldRUSI Defence Systems, 19 December 2019
George Galdorisi
Several states have employed a wide variety of sea mines during recent decades. Libya used mines to disrupt commerce in the Gulf of Suez and the Strait of Bab el Mandeb in 1984. Iran laid mines to hazard military and commercial traffic in the Arabian Gulf and Gulf of Oman in 1987. During Operation Desert Storm in 1990-1991, the threat of mines hazarded coalition forces operating in the Arabian...Tags: Maritime Forces
Future Vertical Lift… Why the Eagles Aren't ComingRUSI Defence Systems, 4 September 2019
Jack Watling
The problem is that the SA-21 does not pose the main threat to aviation in a high-intensity warfighting scenario. Any Russian commander who fired a long-range SA-21 missile at a helicopter that was not posing a direct threat to their battery would be guilty of gross incompetence for wasting munitions critical to the wider campaign. While the suppression of long-range air defence systems is a...Tags: Land Forces
First Flight of Russia's S-70 Okhotnik-B UCAVRUSI Defence Systems, 9 August 2019
Justin Bronk
Part of the objection in the West is that to be credible in a high-intensity combat situation which would almost inevitably include heavy jamming and communications denial, a UCAV must have the ability to detect, classify, prioritise and engage targets with lethal weapons without real-time human yes/no oversight. Those targets would hardly be ambiguous – civilians seldom operate ground or air-...Tags:

Complexity is Cheaper than Simplicity: The Reason Cyber Security is HardRUSI Defence Systems, 23 April 2019
Kristofor Bolton
Programmers often lament how programs they have written would be different if they were able to delete them and start again. In most cases, programmers do not have the opportunity to implement what they have learned while tackling the often-unique challenges associated with a project; rather they often find themselves making ad hoc fixes and jury-rigging solutions as many people work on the same...Tags: Cyber

At the Association of the United States' Army (AUSA) Global Force Symposium – held in Huntsville from 25-28 March - MDO's architect, Lieutenant General Eric Wesley observed, 'a good concept describes the future and is presently infeasible because you have to change to achieve it'.

The US Army's Future Capabilities Command will make a decision by 2023 on whether a new tank is necessary and how to proceed with its development. Likewise, the UK is set to deal with a slew of Challenger 2 modernisation issues under austere army budget constraints.

In response the USMC has acknowledged the need for a 'paradigm shift and the reinvigoration of a unified naval approach that effectively integrates sea control and maritime power projection capabilities'. The USMC's answer – still being refined – is Expeditionary Advanced Base Operations (EABO). Rather than being supported by the US Navy at sea, the Marines instead provide crucial support to the...Tags: Equipment and Acquisitions, Maritime Forces

Ultra Christmas and Anger
Ultraman Ace episode #38 has got to be one of the weirdest Christmas episodes in all of TV history. If you can read Japanese, here's a synopisis of the episode. It's got lots of neat frame grabs from the show even if you can't read the text.
Basically, the snow monster Snowgillon attacks Tokyo. A gigantic mustachioed, but beardless Santa Claus (see photo) battles the creature. I think he gives Ultraman Ace some kind of special ray power to deal with the beast too. Then Santa turns out to the Father of Ultra, the daddy of all the Ultramen. In the end he flies away on a silver sleigh along with the Minami, who had been part of Ultraman Ace's alter ego (it took two people to transform into Ultraman Ace, Hokuto, a man and Minami, a woman, but Minami left some time in the series).
Weird. Just weird.
My friend Takeshi Yagi directed a far less weird Ultraman Christmas episode called "Ellie's Christmas" in 2005 for the series Ultraman Max. There's a brief synopsis of that episode here.
I'll be spending Christmas at my sister's house where my dad is coming to join the fun. I like Christmas. It's fun.
I just spent the whole morning writing a Christmas-themed article, which will appear on the Suicide Girls Safe For Work Blog on Monday. I'll put the link up here once I get it. So I'm not gonna write a lot about Christmas here.
Here's a question from the mailbag:
"What is wrong with my anger at why the world is wrong? The Clash gave me a code to live by in the song 'Clampdown,' 'let fury have the hour,anger can be power.' What I want to know is, why must I kill my anger toward things which are wrong? Exploitation of workers, rape, sexism, racism, fascism, conservatism, militarism, Islamic female circumcision practices, universal health care, and most importantly, the environment are my biggest concerns. And for as long as I can remember, the complete lack of general concern for these issues has thoroughly pissed me off. But like The Clash said, anger can be power and I have always believed that getting angry, really fired up about the world's problems is the best way to solve them. When I get angry about, say litter, it just reminds me to recycle a little more and consume a little less.
You get the picture right? Anger can be useful in solving problems, in dealing with injustice. Do I still have to kill my anger toward injustice?"
My answer:
(I always start with "my answer" because these articles go up on Facebook and all the careful formatting I do disappears)
The answer is that there is nothing "wrong" with your anger. People are constantly characterizing me as an "angry" person based on my writing. I think that I'm not as angry as I used to be, but I'm still just as angry as I used to be. Which is a typically contradictory "Zen" way of saying that even though I'm angry still, I don't get angry about my anger like I used to.
In other words, the emotional component of what we call "anger" is clearly useless. It doesn't help anything. And yet when I hear about the stuff you've described, it pisses me off. Lots of things piss me off.
I just saw an interesting talk by Alan Senauke from the Berkeley Zen Center. Alan wrote a very cool book called The Bodhisattva's Embrace: Dispatches from Engaged Buddhism's Front Lines. He's into the whole engaged Buddhism thing. He works for a lot of causes. He goes places. He does stuff.
But when questioned in a similar manner about anger over the troubles of the world after his talk, Alan said something to the effect of, "I try to limit my intake of TV news." I like that advice. Our duty is to deal with the shit right in front of us. But we get sidetracked by the tons and tons and tons of information we are now able to receive about things we really can't deal with because they're too far away or they're too big, etc.
You can easily drive yourself into a tizzy over all the stuff there is in this world to get angry about. I have no doubt that if/when we establish communications with creatures from other planets, it won't be long before there are people on Earth wringing their hands over the unfair treatment of the Krell in the Gomular fields of Regizon IV. It's just human nature to feel like that.
But anger as an emotion gets in the way of what you need to do to effectively deal with those things you're angry about. It blinds you with rage and you don't see the real solutions right in front of you.
Sure anger, in one sense, can be power. But the emotion of anger isn't very powerful if you ask me. It's debilitating.
So it really depends what you mean by the word "anger." I'm angry at sexism. But it doesn't do me any good to sit and stew over it. When there are cases of sexism that I can do something about, I do what I can do. Like maybe if I was there when Ultraman Neos was fondling that poor girl in her Santa outfit I might say something. But not if she was clearly enjoying the attention. My general feeling of anger over the issue remains as part of my personality whether I'm acting on it or not. But it makes no sense to get emotional about things I can't do anything about. The general overall problem of sexism is far too big for one person to fix.
This doesn't mean I have a lack of concern. The whole idea that being all emotional about big issues is a way of being concerned is kind of a red herring. It's something that seems to be relevant to the issue at hand when it really isn't.
When you talk about "being fired up," I think what you're really referring to is holding on to a part of your sense of personal self. You fear that if you don't hold on to your anger, it will go away and you'll just be complacent. In my experience this is not what happens at all. You don't become complacent. You become more relaxed and more realistic about where you can help and where you cannot.
I hope that made some kind of sense.

John Newton
LANDGROVE - John Newton, 83, died peacefully in his Landgrove, Vermont, home February 13, 2013, after a short illness. John was a grower of potatoes and tomatoes, philosopher, teacher, high school principal, square dance caller, bass fiddle player, mechanic, manual laborer, farmer, classic designer, miller and builder, but above all, an educator. He was a natural storyteller and he had an old Vermont sense of humor. His selfless compassion for others was remarkable, and John will be long remembered by the fortunate people whose lives he touched in his gentle, strong and elegant way.
John was born August 2, 1929, in Hartford, Connecticut, near the Loomis School where his father, David Newton, was a teacher. In 1937, John's parents, David and Margaret, started an independent boys' high school, The Newton School, on a remote farm near Hamilton Falls in Jamaica, Vermont. As important as the regular curriculum, the students helped renovate and build the farm, raise animals and vegetables for food. Each student was given an axe and a lantern. Besides being one of the students, John physically ran the farm, with the help of his siblings. He cut and hand-sawed the firewood the school was heated with, and he was in charge of the horses. He taught himself to ride, harness, plow and haul his felled trees through the woods. He graduated from the Newton School in 1947. The diploma was a double-bitted Rexford axe inscribed with the motto, "A thicker axe don't cut good, a thinner axe don't hold good. Always buy a Rexford."
Following graduation, John worked three years for Ripley Swan, a local contractor and also a teacher at The Newton School. He spent two years in the army as a radio operator in Louisiana during the
Korean War
. He married Jane Spross in 1953. John received a B.A. from
Princeton University
in 1957, and a master's from Harvard in 1958.
John was a science teacher at the Chester and Springfield, Vermont, high schools from 1958 - 1969. He was the principal of Leland and Gray High School in Townshend, Vermont, from 1969 - 1977.
In 1978, he started Hamilton Falls Lumber Co., milling and building post and beam barns and frames. The company changed its name to John Newton & Sons Inc. around 1996, and John continued to run the business through December of 2012. He designed and built over 200 barns and houses in Southern Vermont, and repaired and restored almost as many. He lived in Vermont for 76 years.
John leaves behind his wife, Anna Dibble Newton, Landgrove, Vt.; sister Mary Western, Windham and Burlington, Vt., sister Margaret Newton, Brattleboro, Vt., and brother Michael Newton, Corvallis, Ore.; five children, Michael (Suzi) Newton, Georgetown, Maine, Sally (Michael) Newton, West Townshend, Vt., James (Paula) Newton, Townshend, Vt., Peter (Diane) Newton, Windham, Vt., and Amos (Ilana) Newton who lives in The Newton School buildings, Jamaica, Vt.; two stepchildren, Katy and Andrew Morse; 10 grandchildren, Daniel Dubie, David and Jake Newton, Benjamin and Samuel Donahue, Lucas Newton, Jenny and Jesse Newton, Abram and Lilian Newton; two step-grandchildren, Emily and Michaela Stockwell; and many nieces and nephews. One child, Rebecca Newton, predeceased him in 1984.
John's family would like to thank Orion Howard of the Southwestern Vermont Medical Cancer Center, Grace Cottage Hospital, the nurses and Dr. Maurice Geurts.
A private memorial event will be held in the spring.
In lieu of flowers, please send donations in John's name to Grace Cottage Hospital -
or the Vermont Land Trust -

Starved Rock State Park East Hike
Starved Rock State Park has a beautiful East Hike that offers canyons galore, each with slightly different shapes, sizes and colorings. At 6.4 miles of dirt terrain, this hike is moderately difficult. Cool, shady and overgrown with ferns, the canyons offer a plethora of trees and flowering plants—a true delight to explore. You'll also encounter scenic overlooks 100 feet above the Illinois River. The real crowd pleasers at Starved Rock are the numerous sandstone canyons that were carved deep into the bedrock as upland streams drained into the Illinois River. Some noted canyons of worth to explore are Kaskaskia Canyon, Ottawa Canyon and Hennepin Canyon Overlook.
Starved Rock State Park Visitors Center
The Starved Rock State Park Visitors Center has several interactive displays, free videos on the park, hiking maps, and more.

Located one mile west of Princeton in Bureau County, Illinois is the Captain Swift Covered Bridge.

It has a 16'-3" vertical clearance, a 28 foot minimum roadway width and a 128' span over the Big Bureau Creek. GPS co-ordinates - N41 22.745 W89 29.871

Starved Rock State Park West Hike
Starved Rock State Park West Hike offers a decidedly different set of attractions than its eastern counterpart. On this hike you'll encounter a series of overlooks from wooded bluffs and rocky cliffs high above the Illinois River. This 2.9-mile hike varies in difficulty due to the large amount of stairs that need climbing. The dominant feature of Starved Rock can be found on this hike, via a narrow bluff that runs 4-miles along the south branch of the Illinois River. The park's namesake towers 125 feet above the river, offering commanding views of the nearby islands and river. Some notable excursions include, French Canyon, Wildcat Canyon and Pontiac Canyon with sweeping views of the Illinois River.

The lost year: Obama's legacy will suffer from his own missteps and a minority party set on obstruction
When historians write the story of Barack Obama's presidency, 2013 will be his lost year. It opened with great promise and closed with equally great disappointment. In a year that could have been about building his legacy, the president was instead reduced to salvaging the signature accomplishment of his first term.
The chasm between what was expected and what was delivered was evident in the precipitous drop in Obama's approval ratings throughout 2013, all the way down to George-W.-Bush-second-term territory. Dashed expectations sent Democrats up for re-election in 2014 fleeing for cover and comforted Republicans still smarting from their party's 2012 defeat.
Second-term presidencies are tricky. The pace of modern politics and the desire of journalists (scourges!) to always look ahead to the next campaign put a re-elected incumbent in a race against irrelevancy from the second he is sworn in again. Scandals tend to creep in or escalate - Watergate, Iran-contra, Monica Lewinsky - and investigations follow, often drifting far afield. Momentum toward any meaningful achievement fades.
Usually, a president has until the midterm elections of his second term to get big things done; after that, attention moves on to deciding who will next occupy 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
But Obama may not have the luxury of even that truncated timeline. The split control in Congress - Democrats in charge in the Senate, a Republican majority in the House - combined with the tea party's continued demand for conservative purity from its elected officials and the politicization of just about everything makes it hard to imagine that 2014 will afford Obama any chance to move his agenda through Congress. And his addition of John Podesta, a vocal advocate of taking executive action to end-run lawmakers, to the White House staff suggests that the president has effectively given up trying to work with the Hill.
All of which makes what happened - or more accurately, what didn't happen - in 2013 that much more dire for Obama's chances of leaving a lasting legacy on his party, Washington and politics more broadly.
Let's start from the beginning, or a bit earlier. Despite a tenuous economic recovery and an unpopular health-care law, Obama surged to a convincing win in November 2012. The victory gave him a mandate to continue in the vein of his first four years, as well as providing a damning assessment of the GOP's ability to attract any voters other than white men.
Obama used that momentum to cut a favorable deal with Republicans to avert the "fiscal cliff," and he was able to unite the country after the horrific murder of 20 children and six adults at an elementary school in Newtown.
On Jan. 1, then, it wasn't difficult to imagine the passage of a broad gun-control measure, an immigration reform package, and a series of bills addressing the country's debt and spending issues. The reasons none of these things came to be all lead back to Obama.
First came the scandals.
The Internal Revenue Service acknowledged that it had targeted tea party groups' applications for nonprofit, tax-exempt status and subjected them to heightened scrutiny, giving Republicans a way to rally their base after a dispiriting election.
Edward Snowden's leaks of scads of classified materials detailing the vastness of the National Security Agency's spying operation not only put Obama on his heels for months but badly damaged his credibility with U.S. allies such as Germany and Brazil.
Republicans insisted that the Obama administration had covered up information about who knew what and when regarding the Sept. 11, 2012, attack in Benghazi, Libya, which left a U.S. ambassador and three other Americans dead. Then-Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton delivered high-profile testimony before Congress, and the attack got so politicized that it squashed U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice's chances to succeed Clinton at State.
And then there was the Affordable Care Act, the single biggest achievement of the president's five years in office. The rollout of the federal health insurance exchange, one of the law's key elements, was a complete failure - even though we didn't realize it until Republicans reversed course on their own massive political flub and reopened the federal government after a 16-day shutdown. (The GOP's lack of any coherent strategy may have been the only silver lining in Obama's year.) On top of that, Obama's oft-repeated pledge that "if you like your insurance, you can keep it" wasn't true - Politifact even deemed it the "Lie of the Year." He later made a public apology.
As if the self-inflicted wounds and scandals everywhere weren't enough to ensure the demise of Obama's agenda, Republicans in Washington spent 2013 in a public slap fight over the direction of their party. Even if the president had been able to extricate himself from the problems that cropped up throughout the year, it became abundantly clear early on that there was not one Republican with whom he could negotiate, whether on guns, immigration or anything else.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (Ky.) - he of the fiscal cliff agreement - was loath to associate himself too closely with anything that reeked of bipartisanship as he dealt with a conservative primary challenge back home. (McConnell did ultimately step in and cut the deal that ended the government shutdown, a mercy killing for his side.) Speaker John Boehner couldn't lead House Republicans anywhere as the tea-party wing repeatedly rebelled against him (on the Farm Bill, Hurricane Sandy relief, the Violence Against Women Act reauthorization and so on), leaving him speaker in name only.
Add it all up, and you get the least-productive Congress in history (only 55 bills have been passed by both chambers and signed into law this year); the least-popular Congress in history; and a president most Americans no longer like or, perhaps more important, trust.
Yes, the economy is showing signs of improving. And yes, enrollment on HealthCare.gov is soaring compared with the first few weeks. Those facts provide hope for those who believe that 2014 will be better for Obama.
But 2013 is almost gone and with it the president's best chance for a lasting legacy. The damage done to Obama's brand will linger well beyond this calendar year.
There are no second chances in presidential tenures.

Gudo's Blog
I'm gonna try not to post here every day. And if you're in So Cal and want something to do on Saturday see the next post below this one for info on our one-day zazen. ALSO, I will be at the Dharma Punx place in Santa Monica on Monday March 2, 2009 at 7:30 PM. The address is 1001 Colorado Ave. Santa Monica, CA 90401. I'll also be at their place in Hollywood on Sunday March 15, 2009 at 11 AM. That's at 4300 Melrose (between Heliotrope and Vermont) Los Angeles, CA 90029.
But I couldn't let this go without mentioning it. The February 25, 2009 post on my teacher Gudo Nishijima's blog has some nice comments about my new book, Zen Wrapped in Karma Dipped in Chocolate. The post is called "Master Dogen's Thoughts on Desire." The blog itself has been very good lately (much better than my drivel here) and I urge you to take a look.
This way of looking at desire is a really key point. The common translation of Buddha's Four Noble Truths has it that the cause of suffering is desire and the elimination of desire ends suffering. This dovetails nicely with Judeo-Christian-Islamic revulsion towards desires of the flesh. The idea sounds remarkably like the church's teaching that we must deny the desires of the body to experience the Heavenly bliss of the soul. I think much of what's taught by Westerners who follow Eastern religious paths, including Buddhism, proceeds from this idea.
But Dogen's point of view was totally different. He states that the suppression of desire and desire itself are one and the same. You might also say that one element of desire itself is our revulsion towards that desire. By fixating on that one aspect of desire, the desire to suppress desire, we only increase desire.
This doesn't mean we should simply give in to whatever lurid cravings cross our minds. That won't help us either. The only thing I've found that works is to be very, very quiet and see desire for what it really is. And the only way to do that is to do zazen every damn day. Seeing desire for what it is, is the first step. Doing what needs doing is another matter.
It kind of reminds me of this riff I heard by one of my favorite local comedians Eddie Pepitone. He talks about how there are world leaders out there torturing babies and he feels like a bad person when he has a pudding at three in the morning (he gets to it towards the end of this video). It's a funny bit that shows how we humans work. Some of us don't have it together to see that the most heinous things we do are wrong while others are sensitive to the most innocuous of offenses. That sensitivity is a generally good thing. But it can be taken too far.
Religious leader types are very much aware that "spiritual" people tend to be very sensitive to the notion of being a "bad person" for even the most minor transgressions. And many of these religious leaders prey upon that, knowing that feelings of guilt among their followers ultimately increase their own power over those followers. Since each member of the congregation has his or her own secret transgressions, it's not even necessary to spell them out. But sometimes it helps to goose the crowd by defining even the most universal of human cravings or transgressions as "evil" in the eyes of the deity, or, in the case of wanna-be Buddhists, as desires that need to be stamped out.
Desire and the desire to be free of desire arise simultaneously. Try as you might you can't fight desire with itself. The only way out is to see what's going on from a completely different angle.
