အနႏၲသူရိယ အမတ္၏ မ်က္ေျဖလကၤာ
သူတည္း တစ္ေယာက္၊ ေကာင္းဘ္ို႕ေရာက္မူ သူတစ္ေယာက္မွာ၊
ပ်က္လင္႕ကာသာ ဓမၼတာတည္း။
ေရႊအိမ္နန္းႏွင္႕၊ က်ငွန္းလည္းခံ မတ္ေပါင္းရန္လွ်က္၊ စည္းစိမ္မကြာ မင္းခ်မ္းသာကား၊ သမုဒၵရာ ေရမ်က္ႏွာထက္၊ ခဏတက္သည့္ ေရပြပ္ပမာ၊ တစ္သက္လ်ာတည္း။
ၾကင္နာသနား၊ ငါ႕အားမသတ္ ယခုလြတ္လည္း၊ မလြတ္ၾကမၼာ လူတစ္ကာတို႕၊ ခႏၶာခုိင္က်ည္ မတည္မၿမဲ၊ ေဖာက္လဲြတတ္သည္ မခၽြတ္စသာ၊ သတၱ၀ါတည္း။
ရွစ္ခိုးေကာ္ေရာ္၊ ပူေဇာ္အကၽြန္ ပန္ခဲ႕တံဳ၏၊
ခိုက္ႀကံဳ၀ိဘက္ သံသာစက္နုိက္၊ ၾကိဳက္လတ္တံုမႈ တုန္႕မယူလို၊ ခ်စ္ဘိစင္စစ္ သခင္မြန္ကို၊ အျပစ္မဲ႕ေရး ခြင္႕လွ်င္္ေပး၏၊ ေသြးသည္ နိစၥာ ငါ႕ခႏၶာတည္း။

Food for thought
Internet is an enemy? (Enemy of the state?)
Is the web indestructible or can censorship, cybercrime or infrastructure attack bring it down?
As the web transcends the barriers of the physical world the orthodox view is that the nation state will inevitably wither as the porous web of hyperlinks conquers the globe.
But some states are fighting back.

GREED breeds HATRED/"a greedy billionaire."
Media magnate Rupert Murdoch was attacked by a man apparently carrying a plate full of shaving foam during a parliamentary hearing Tuesday, but returned unhurt. The man could be heard telling Murdoch he's "a greedy billionaire."
Murdoch's wife, Wendi Deng, who was seated behind him, leaped to her feet and smashed the attacker's hand with her own, pictures from the scene showed.
Murdoch was hit full in the face, and stunned but not injured, CNN saw.
The hearing into phone hacking was suspended for a few minutes only.
The attacker appears to be in his late 20s or early 30s. A policeman wrestled him away but the attack was already complete by then. Police arrested him and were later seen wiping foam off his face.

a barrier between a network and the Internet
proxy
n. A computer (or the software that runs on it) that acts as a barrier between a network and the Internet by presenting only a single network address to external sites. By acting as a go-between representing all internal computers, the proxy protects network identities while still providing access to the Internet. See also proxy server.
proxy server
n. A firewall component that manages Internet traffic to and from a local area network (LAN) and can provide other features, such as document caching and access control. A proxy server can improve performance by supplying frequently requested data, such as a popular Web page, and can filter and discard requests that the owner does not consider appropriate, such as requests for unauthorized access to proprietary files.

Extracts from Constant Conflict /RALPH PETERS(5)
have the guts for it.END4contd.
Extracts from Constant Conflict (5)
Ralph Peters
For the majority of our citizens, our vulgar, near-chaotic, marvelous culture is the greatest engine of positive change in history.
Only the foolish will fight fair.
a second "industrial" revolution that will make the original industrial revolution that climaxed the great age of imperialism look like a rehearsal by amateurs.
There will be no peace.
At any given moment for the rest of our lifetimes, there will be multiple conflicts in mutating forms around the globe.
Violent conflict will dominate the headlines, but cultural and economic struggles will be steadier and ultimately more decisive. The de facto role of the US armed forces will be to keep the world safe for our economy and open to our cultural assault.
To those ends, we will do a fair amount of killing.
We are building an information-based military to do that killing. There will still be plenty of muscle power required, but much of our military art will consist in knowing more about the enemy than he knows about himself, manipulating data for effectiveness and efficiency, and denying similar advantages to our opponents.
This will involve a good bit of technology, but the relevant systems will not be the budget vampires, such as manned bombers and attack submarines, that we continue to buy through inertia, emotional attachment, and the lobbying power of the defense industry.
Our most important technologies will be those that support soldiers and Marines on the ground, that facilitate command decisions, and that enable us to kill accurately and survive amid clutter (such as multidimensional urban battlefields).
The only imaginable use for most of our submarine fleet will be to strip out the weapons, dock them tight, and turn the boats into low-income housing.
There will be no justification for billion-dollar bombers at all.
For a generation, and probably much longer, we will face no military peer competitor.
Our enemies will challenge us by other means.
The violent actors we encounter often will be small, hostile parties possessed of unexpected, incisive capabilities or simply of a stunning will to violence (or both).
Renegade elites, not foreign fleets, should worry us.
The urbanization of the global landscape is a greater threat to our operations than any extant or foreseeable military system.
We will not deal with wars of Realpolitik, but with conflicts spawned of collective emotions, sub-state interests, and systemic collapse.
Hatred, jealousy, and greed--emotions rather than strategy--will set the terms of the struggles.
We will survive and win any conflict short of a cataclysmic use of weapons of mass destruction.
But the constant conflicts in which we selectively intervene will be as miserable as any other form of warfare for the soldiers and Marines engaged.
The bayonet will still be relevant; however, informational superiority incisively employed should both sharpen that bayonet and permit us to defeat some--but never all--of our enemies outside of bayonet range.
Our informational advantage over every other country and culture will be so enormous that our greatest battlefield challenge will be harnessing its power.
. Our potential national weakness will be the failure to maintain the moral and raw physical strength to thrust that bayonet into an enemy's heart
Pilots and skippers, as well as defense executives, demand threat models that portray country X or Y as overtaking the military capability of the United States in 10 to 20 years.
Forget it.
Our military power is culturally based
They cannot rival us without becoming us.
Wise competitors will not even attempt to defeat us on our terms; rather, they will seek to shift the playing field away from military confrontations or turn to terrorism and nontraditional forms of assault on our national integrity.

The threat models stitched together from dead parts to convince Congress that the Russians are only taking a deep breath or that the Chinese are only a few miles off the coast of California uniformly assume that while foreign powers make all the right decisions, analyze every trend correctly, and continue to achieve higher and higher economic growth rates, the United States will take a nap. On the contrary.
Beyond the Beltway, the United States is wide awake and leading a second "industrial" revolution that will make the original industrial revolution that climaxed the great age of imperialism look like a rehearsal by amateurs.
Only the United States has the synthetic ability, the supportive laws, and the cultural agility to remain at the cutting edge of wealth creation.
Not long ago, the Russians were going to overtake us.
Then it was oil-wealthy Arabs, then the Japanese.

Now the Chinese are our nemesis.
No doubt our industrial-strength Cassandras will soon find a reason to fear the Galapagos.
In the meantime, the average American can look forward to a longer life-span, a secure retirement, and free membership in the most triumphant culture in history. For the majority of our citizens, our vulgar, near-chaotic, marvelous culture is the greatest engine of positive change in history.
Freedom works.
In the military sphere, it will be impossible to rival or even approach the capabilities of our information-based force because it is so profoundly an outgrowth of our culture.
Our information-based Army will employ many marvelous tools, but the core of the force will still be the soldier, not the machine, and our soldiers will have skills other cultures will be unable to replicate.
Intelligence analysts, fleeing human complexity, like to project enemy capabilities based upon the systems a potential opponent might acquire.
But buying or building stuff is not enough.
It didn't work for Saddam Hussein, and it won't work for Beijing.
The complex human-machine interface developing in the US military will be impossible to duplicate abroad because no other state will be able to come from behind to equal the informational dexterity of our officers and soldiers.
For all the complaints--in many respects justified--about our public school systems, the holistic and synergistic nature of education in our society and culture is imparting to tomorrow's soldiers and Marines a second-nature grasp of technology and the ability to sort and assimilate vast amounts of competitive data that no other population will achieve.
The informational dexterity of our average middle-class kid is terrifying to anyone born before 1970. Our computer kids function at a level foreign elites barely manage, and this has as much to do with television commercials, CD-ROMs, and grotesque video games as it does with the classroom.
We are outgrowing our 19th-century model education system as surely as we have outgrown the manned bomber. In the meantime, our children are undergoing a process of Darwinian selection in coping with the information deluge that is drowning many of their parents.
These kids are going to make mean techno-warriors. We just have to make sure they can do push-ups, too. END5.contd.

For the majority of our citizens, our vulgar, near-chaotic, marvelous culture is the greatest engine of positive change in history.
Only the foolish will fight fair.
a second "industrial" revolution that will make the original industrial revolution that climaxed the great age of imperialism look like a rehearsal by amateurs.
There will be no peace.
At any given moment for the rest of our lifetimes, there will be multiple conflicts in mutating forms around the globe.
Violent conflict will dominate the headlines, but cultural and economic struggles will be steadier and ultimately more decisive. The de facto role of the US armed forces will be to keep the world safe for our economy and open to our cultural assault.
To those ends, we will do a fair amount of killing.
We are building an information-based military to do that killing. There will still be plenty of muscle power required, but much of our military art will consist in knowing more about the enemy than he knows about himself, manipulating data for effectiveness and efficiency, and denying similar advantages to our opponents.
This will involve a good bit of technology, but the relevant systems will not be the budget vampires, such as manned bombers and attack submarines, that we continue to buy through inertia, emotional attachment, and the lobbying power of the defense industry.
Our most important technologies will be those that support soldiers and Marines on the ground, that facilitate command decisions, and that enable us to kill accurately and survive amid clutter (such as multidimensional urban battlefields).
The only imaginable use for most of our submarine fleet will be to strip out the weapons, dock them tight, and turn the boats into low-income housing.
There will be no justification for billion-dollar bombers at all.
For a generation, and probably much longer, we will face no military peer competitor.
Our enemies will challenge us by other means.
The violent actors we encounter often will be small, hostile parties possessed of unexpected, incisive capabilities or simply of a stunning will to violence (or both).
Renegade elites, not foreign fleets, should worry us.
The urbanization of the global landscape is a greater threat to our operations than any extant or foreseeable military system.
We will not deal with wars of Realpolitik, but with conflicts spawned of collective emotions, sub-state interests, and systemic collapse.
Hatred, jealousy, and greed--emotions rather than strategy--will set the terms of the struggles.
We will survive and win any conflict short of a cataclysmic use of weapons of mass destruction.
But the constant conflicts in which we selectively intervene will be as miserable as any other form of warfare for the soldiers and Marines engaged.
The bayonet will still be relevant; however, informational superiority incisively employed should both sharpen that bayonet and permit us to defeat some--but never all--of our enemies outside of bayonet range.
Our informational advantage over every other country and culture will be so enormous that our greatest battlefield challenge will be harnessing its power.
. Our potential national weakness will be the failure to maintain the moral and raw physical strength to thrust that bayonet into an enemy's heart
Pilots and skippers, as well as defense executives, demand threat models that portray country X or Y as overtaking the military capability of the United States in 10 to 20 years.
Forget it.

RALPH PETERS
the future will be the conflict between information masters and information victims.
They no longer understand the world, and their fear is volatile.
They ache to return to a golden age & create a paradise of their own restrictive design.
today, the challenge lies in managing information.
Those of us who can sort, digest, synthesize, and apply relevant knowledge soar--professionally, financially, politically, militarily, and socially.

« on: May 09, 2010, 11:19:34 AM »
When we speak of a global information revolution, the effect of video images is more immediate and intense than that of computers.
Image trumps text in the mass psyche, and computers remain a textual outgrowth, demanding high-order skills: computers demarcate the domain of the privileged. We use technology to expand our wealth, power, and opportunities. The rest get high on pop culture.
If religion is the opium of the people, video is their crack cocaine.
When we and they collide, they shock us with violence, but, statistically, we win.
As more and more human beings are overwhelmed by information, or dispossessed by the effects of information-based technologies, there will be more violence. Information victims will often see no other resort.
As work becomes more cerebral, those who fail to find a place will respond by rejecting reason.
We will see countries and continents divide between rich and poor in a reversal of 20th-century economic trends.
Developing countries will not be able to depend on physical production industries, because there will always be another country willing to work cheaper. The have-nots will hate and strive to attack the haves.
And we in the United States will continue to be perceived as the ultimate haves. States will struggle for advantage or revenge as their societies boil.
Beyond traditional crime, terrorism will be the most common form of violence, but transnational criminality, civil strife, secessions, border conflicts, and conventional wars will continue to plague the world, albeit with the "lesser" conflicts statistically dominant.
In defense of its interests, its citizens, its allies, or its clients, the United States will be required to intervene in some of these contests.
We will win militarily whenever we have the guts for it.

(From Parameters, Summer 1997, pp. 4-14.)
Secular and religious revolutionaries in our century have made the identical mistake, imagining that the workers of the world or the faithful just can't wait to go home at night to study Marx or the Koran.
America has figured it out, and we are brilliant at operationalizing our knowledge, and our cultural power will hinder even those cultures we do not undermine.
There is no "peer competitor" in the cultural (or military) department.
Our cultural empire has the addicted--men and women everywhere--clamoring for more.
And they pay for the privilege of their disillusionment.
American culture is criticized for its impermanence, its "disposable" products. But therein lies its strength.
All previous cultures sought ideal achievement which, once reached, might endure in static perfection.
American culture is not about the end, but the means, the dynamic process that creates, destroys, and creates anew.
If our works are transient, then so are life's greatest gifts--passion, beauty, the quality of light on a winter afternoon, even life itself.
American culture is alive.
This vividness, this vitality, is reflected in our military; we do not expect to achieve ultimate solutions, only constant improvement.
All previous cultures, general and military, have sought to achieve an ideal form of life and then fix it in cement.
Americans, in and out of uniform, have always embraced change (though many individuals have not, and their conservatism has acted as a healthy brake on our national excesses).
American culture is the culture of the unafraid.
Ours is also the first culture that aims to include rather than exclude.
The films most despised by the intellectual elite--those that feature extreme violence and to-the-victors-the-spoils sex--are our most popular cultural weapon, bought or bootlegged nearly everywhere.
American action films, often in dreadful copies, are available from the Upper Amazon to Mandalay.
They are even more popular than our music, because they are easier to understand. The action films of a Stallone or Schwarzenegger or Chuck Norris rely on visual narratives that do not require dialog for a basic understanding.
They deal at the level of universal myth, of pre-text, celebrating the most fundamental impulses (although we have yet to produce a film as violent and cruel as the Iliad).
They feature a hero, a villain, a woman to be defended or won--and violence and sex.
Complain until doomsday; it sells. The enduring popularity abroad of the shopworn Rambo series tells us far more about humanity than does a library full of scholarly analysis.

an explosion of disorienting information intruded ever further into "structures of everyday life."
In the past, information empowerment was largely a matter of insider and outsider, as elementary as the division of society into the literate and illiterate.
While superior information--often embodied in military technology--killed throughout history, its effects tended to be politically decisive but not personally intrusive (once the raping and pillaging were done).
Technology was more apt to batter down the city gates than to change the nature of the city.
The rise of the modern West broke the pattern.
Whether speaking of the dispossessions and dislocations caused in Europe through the introduction of machine-driven production or elsewhere by the great age of European imperialism, an explosion of disorienting information intruded ever further into Braudel's "structures of everyday life."
Historically, ignorance was bliss.
Today, ignorance is no longer possible, only error.
The contemporary expansion of available information is immeasurable, uncontainable, and destructive to individuals and entire cultures unable to master it.
The radical fundamentalists--the bomber in Jerusalem or Oklahoma City, the moral terrorist on the right or the dictatorial multiculturalist on the left--are all brothers and sisters, all threatened by change, terrified of the future, and alienated by information they cannot reconcile with their lives or ambitions.
They ache to return to a golden age that never existed, or to create a paradise of their own restrictive design.
They no longer understand the world, and their fear is volatile.
Information destroys traditional jobs and traditional cultures; it seduces, betrays, yet remains invulnerable.
How can you counterattack the information others have turned upon you?
There is no effective option other than competitive performance.
For those individuals and cultures that cannot join or compete with our information empire, there is only inevitable failure (of note, the internet is to the techno-capable disaffected what the United Nations is to marginal states: it offers the illusion of empowerment and community).
The attempt of the Iranian mullahs to secede from modernity has failed, although a turbaned corpse still stumbles about the neighborhood.
Information, from the internet to rock videos, will not be contained, and fundamentalism cannot control its children. Our victims volunteer.
These noncompetitive cultures, such as that of Arabo-Persian Islam or the rejectionist segment of our own population, are enraged.
Their cultures are under assault; their cherished values have proven dysfunctional, and the successful move on without them.
The laid-off blue-collar worker in America and the Taliban militiaman in Afghanistan are brothers in suffering.

We have entered an age of constant conflict.
Information is at once our core commodity and the most destabilizing factor of our time.
Until now, history has been a quest to acquire information;
today, the challenge lies in managing information
Those of us who can sort, digest, synthesize, and apply relevant knowledge soar--professionally, financially, politically, militarily, and socially.
We(Americans ?), the winners, are a minority.
For the world masses, devastated by information they cannot manage or effectively interpret, life is "nasty, brutish . . . and short-circuited."
The general pace of change is overwhelming, and information is both the motor and signifier of change.
Those humans, in every country and region, who cannot understand the new world, or who cannot profit from its uncertainties, or who cannot reconcile themselves to its dynamics, will become the violent enemies of their inadequate governments, of their more fortunate neighbors, and ultimately of the United States.
We are entering a new American century, in which we will become still wealthier, culturally more lethal, and increasingly powerful.
We will excite hatreds without precedent.
We live in an age of multiple truths.
He who warns of the "clash of civilizations" is incontestably right; simultaneously, we shall see higher levels of constructive trafficking between civilizations than ever before.
The future is bright--and it is also very dark.
More men and women will enjoy health and prosperity than ever before, yet more will live in poverty or tumult, if only because of the ferocity of demographics. There will be more democracy--that deft liberal form of imperialism--and greater popular refusal of democracy.
One of the defining bifurcations of the future will be the conflict between information masters and information victims.

Problems of “spamming”
Problems of “spamming”
Dear “online” friends,
Because of ur complaints , I look for the meaning of “spamming “ in Computer dictionary & I find the following meanings.
*Plz forgive me if I commit “spamming”;
*Plz do not/ retaliate !
* this problem may be because of my lack of technical knowhows(knowledge of plugins or buttons);
*u can also mark mine as “spam” or block me.
Hla myint(From Mandalay with love.).
*spam1 n. An unsolicited e-mail message sent to many recipients at one time, or a news article posted simultaneously to many newsgroups. Spam is the electronic equivalent of junk mail. In most cases, the content of a spam message or article is not relevant to the topic of the newsgroup or the interests of the recipient; spam is an abuse of the Internet in order to distribute a message (usually commercial or religious) to a huge number of people at minimal cost.
*spam2vb. To distribute unwanted, unrequested mail widely on the Internet by posting a message to too many recipients or too many newsgroups. The act of distributing such mail, known as spamming, angers most Internet users and has been known to invite retaliation, often in the form of return spamming that can flood and possibly disable the electronic mailbox of the original spammer.)
