a company of soldiers: innovating & improvising

"CAVNET attempts to rectify our approach to actionable knowledge by providing a trusted source for junior leaders to immediately tap into and share the emerging enemy and friendly tactics, techniques and procedures laterally so that like units can arm themselves with the most recent enemy and friendly trends. This implies trust from above and a method to validate without losing the relevance. Maj. Gen. Chiarelli is a big proponent and integral cultural driver in moving from "knowledge is power" to "knowledge shared is power." His implicit trust in subordinates, realization that this is a small-unit war, and chief advocating [of] cuts across the inherent cultural divide created by hierarchical "turf wars" [is] driving this change across the organization.

Židovka zbog vica završila u komunističkom logoru

List of characters in Grand Theft Auto IV - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Niko grew up in war-torn Yugoslavia[6][7]. Niko's father was a bully who never believed in him, but his mother was very caring and felt sad that a decent person like Niko had to grow up in such a harsh place. Niko fought in the Bosnian War on the Serbian side[8][9] as an "angry" teenager. He witnessed and committed numerous atrocities which deeply affected him, giving him a cynical view on life and serious feelings of regret and depression as he got older. A defining moment in the war for Niko was when his army unit of fifteen young men (including him) were ambushed by the enemy. Niko barely escaped with his life, but most of his friends were killed - he later discovered that two others also survived. Realizing that one of them tipped the enemy off to their location, Niko vowed to track down the culprit, not solely on revenge, but because he needed closure and that doing so would put his demons to rest.

H-Alter - ANTINATOOVSKI AKTIVISTI POD POLICIJSKOM OBRADOM

  • Uoči dolaska američkog predsjednika Georga Busha policija privodi mirovne aktiviste na informativne razgovore, raspituje se o strukturi antiglobalizacijskog pokreta, o njegovim vođama i o programima sumnjivih kulturnih klubova. Pripadnicima antinatoovskog pokreta stavlja na znanje da su pod prismotrom, te kako ne bi bilo pametno od njih da sudjeluju na prosvjedima protiv politike trenutačnog američkog predsjednika.

'Cyber Moths' Created To Spy on Enemies - Big News Day

  • The Pentagon is creating an army of cyber-moths and beetles to spy on their enemies.

    They aim to insert micro-systems as the live insects undergo metamorphosis and their organs grow around the chips and wires that make up the remote-control devices.

    US military science bureau DARPA (the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) believes they can take advantage of the evolution of insects such as moths in the pupa stage during which the insect is re-built.

    The programme is called HI-MEMS (Hybrid Insect Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) and it sounds like something out of a sci-fi book - because it is.

    Project director Dr Amit Lal got the idea after reading Thomas Easton's 1990 novel Sparrowhawk in which animals enlarged by genetic engineering were fitted with implanted control systems.

Kosova and Albania: history, people, identity | openDemocracy

  • The
    Albanians of Kosova (the territory is spelled thus in its Albanian form) are
    one of those groups who were and are understandably obsessed with issues
    relating to their ethnic and national identity. For many years, they knew what
    there were not. They never liked to
    be called Yugoslavs, though for decades they had Yugoslav passports and
    benefited from freedoms which people in Albania itself could only have
    dreamed of. And they were certainly not Serbs, though much of the world regarded
    their country simply as a province
    of Serbia, indeed some
    still do.
