I’m delighted to note the recent formation in the UK of the Henry Jackson Society , of which I am a supporter. Senator Henry ‘Scoop’ Jackson is a name undeservedly overlooked in current foreign policy debates. He is in fact one of the great figures of modern liberalism, whose ideas were ahead of his time and his party. A congressman and senator from 1941 to his death in 1983, Jackson twice sought the Democratic Presidential nomination, in 1972 and 1976. His ideas on economic policy were standard New Deal liberalism of a particularly interventionist bent; he was a strong proponent of the wage and price controls that the Nixon administration fruitlessly pursued with in the early 1970s. With much greater cause, he was an environmentalist long before the issue became fashionable. But he is best known for his views on foreign policy. These also embodied a consistent liberalism – which, ironically, is the reason they were unacceptable to Democratic activists. Jackson was greatly influenced by having visited Buchenwald shortly after its liberation. He was ever after the most powerful congressional voice in favour of confronting totalitarianism, and opposing the type of diplomacy that would blur the issue of political liberty. It was more than a moral stance; it was a theory of political change that differed laptop deal fundamentally from the popular heresy on the Left that campaigned against military preparedness.

[From Derek Meyer] I've been reading a lot of online commentary lately about Palm offer nissim ("Palm is doomed, blah blah blah"). While I've heard claims like this before, I'm seeing more recently, especially with competing products like the iPhone and perceived "missteps" by Palm like the Foleo. Part of what keeps me staying put is that unlike all the people switching to WinMob or the iPhone or whatever, I haven't found a viable alternative--at least not for me at the moment. Sure, the iPhone's interface is in many ways where Palm OS should be; I've got too many apps on my Treo and SDHC card, though, to make that switch. And while some of those apps would run under StyleTap on a WinMob device, I'm not sure all of them would, and I greatly prefer the Palm OS PIMs and the 320x320 screen resolution. So here's hoping for some great new devices from Palm in early 2008. Something will have to really wow me in the meantime for me to upgrade from my Treo before then. On how I'm using my Treo now... I do a lot of contact entry via Slap, by Hands High Software. (For instance, if someone emails me with his/her contact info in a signature, I copy and paste that into Slap and let Slap put things in the correct fields. Then I paste that same contact info into the note so I can pull from it as I double-check, and delete the note when I'm done.

One useful attribute for categorizing social network analytical systems is their inherent point of view. This is similar to (of all things) the domain of computer games, where we talk about first-person games - e.g, shooters, or Myst -like puzzles or adventures - and third-person , omniscient view games - often strategy, simulation or other god games . Of course there are also variants - e.g., intelligence and fog of war rules in otherwise omniscient view games - and combinations, such as the ability to change POV in some virtual worlds. Any social network analysis has a POV structure. Some approach their domain from a 3rd person, omniscient view requiring visibility over an entire network or a very large sample of it. This is the dominant trend in the virtual domain, given its obvious advantage in completeness camper vans used of knowledge, whether the domain is international phone calling patterns , visualizing online social networks , or modeling information sources and influence in an enterprise . If you can get this information, you will use it. But often it may be inaccessible, for reasons varying from privacy to sheer scale to intractable technical issues. Then one will be forced back to the first person POV, where only the connections and traffic patterns observable by a single user or other node may be considered. There seems to be considerably less work based on the acceptance of this limit.
