2007-11-04 01:32 Adskillelse af kirke og stat
som Göran Persson fortrød for fjorten dage siden, desværre seks år for sent, og som kan blive virkelighed i Danmark med en venstrefløjsregering, kan give sig besynderlige udslag. I Holland f.eks. statsstøtte til kæmpemoskeer, også selv om de ikke vil love at være "moderate" og har svindlet 10 mio. kroner ud i den blå luft. Men islam støttes fordi de har brug for et mere positivt image", og det er i al fald ikke løgn. Sandheden er at parlamentet efter håndfaste trusler, simpelthen ikke tør s …

2007-10-31 07:32 From Korea with love
Korea, a new global player South Korea is on the right path to becoming one of the most dynamic societies in the world. My optimistic prophecy comes as the result of a recent experience at Yeungnam University near Daegu. Invited there to celebrate the 60th anniversary of this University Foundation, I gave a talk to its faculty and students on globalization, which I introduced as the next world civilization. My surprise came from the students positive response to my hypothesis and from the active …

It is a truism today that we live in a œremix culture propone Lev Manovich en What comes after remix (versión .doc ): Today, many of cultural and lifestyle arenas - music, fashion, design, art, web applications, user created media, food - are governed by remixes, fusions, collages, or mash-ups. If post-modernism defined 1980s, remix definitely dominates 2000s, and it will probably continue to rule the next decade as well Pero mientras la remezcla es una forma de producción aceptada en la mús …

AnarchoCatholic suggests that "America's current 'two-party' system consists of one 'party,' the global statists Two Wings of Totalitarian Statism. This note is most important: A note on Abortion is warranted. This issue is used by both sides to garner support for their cause, but is not a specter. The dead babies and injured mothers are very real. This makes the establishment's use of abortion as bait all the more despicable. The left cries that abortion rights are being eroded when they really …

[1Q 2005] Globalization. Outsourcing. Bare-bones profit margins. Manufacturers just can't seem to catch a break in today's ultra-competitive business environment. Nevertheless, companies producing automobiles, consumer packaged goods, high-tech hardware and industrial equipment have quietly achieved a steady level of success not enjoyed by many other industries.

2007-10-18 08:07 Answering the Call for Reform
A few days ago, Robert Reich weighed in on the farm bill debate on the American Prospect s website, but it wasn t groundshaking or breathtaking in its originality, so we just kind of let it slide. Thankfully, our man on the scene Jon Bailey paid attention to the comments section, which included the following : I would like to know what kind of a debate this topic generates in small farm towns across the Midwest. Do small, non-corporate farmers realize that they are used as cover to enable massiv …

2007-10-15 16:05 A Booster for the World Bank
By Sebastian Mallaby (THE WASHINGTON POST, 15/10/07): The presidential corner office at World Bank headquarters has undergone serial changes. Under the master networker, James Wolfensohn, it was a gallery of faces: Yard upon yard of windowsill was forested with trophy photographs. Under the ex-Pentagon man, Paul Wolfowitz, the photos gave way to an ornamental Indonesian dagger. Now comes the workaholic Robert Zoellick. Forget photographs and ornaments; the windowsill is covered with meticulously …

John Schmitt and Dean Baker write, All the bad news about the bursting of the US housing bubble and the related meltdown in US share markets has deflected the world's attention from what is arguably an even more fundamental problem facing the US economy: the sharp deceleration in productivity growth since the middle of 2004.

She has a master's degree in engineering from Stanford and started her career at Jet Propulsion Labs. Not too shabby.

"I'm sure that it is a good thing. I am sure the people who do this think they do a good thing. They worry about us, like we were children." Her eyes were like two hearts, pumping furiously. "We don't have time for TV or computers. We face sun, rain, wind, sickness, and each other. It is good that they want …

2007-10-12 19:20 Latin America File: Former World Bank Senior VP and Chief Economist Stiglitz meets Chavez, "blesses" …
Although the United Nations' World Bank is dedicated to "fighting poverty" in developing countries, communists like Venzuelan Tyrant in Training Hugo Chavez contend that these institutions actually promote "neo-liberalism," a communist codeword for capitalism. In other words, although the UN is fundamentally a communist project, the capitalist nations have sprinkled their leaven into its institutions. Thus, the need to create Banco del Sur (Bancosur), or the Bank of the South. On October 8 the f …

During the interview, Fox said the 700-mile wall that Congress authorized to be built between the two countries "is not up to the democratic standards of this great nation. It's not up to the ideals of the Founding Fathers." He encouraged the US government to use the billions of dollars that would go into the wall, which …

2007-10-11 21:15 The Market Place
By Charles Lindblom Given the steady flow of controversy over globalization and free trade in short, over the place of the market system in the world it would become clear, one might think, that the market is a vast system, a world-wide social coordinator, whether for good or bad. We all know that governments are social coordinators, many of them stretching over many millions of people. Some coordinate tyrannically, wastefully, and/or irrationally, and none ideally. The same for the market syste …

2007-10-11 17:56 Thoughts on testing speech applications
Personally, I feel one area that we did not address overly well in Speech Server is allowing developers to test their speech applications. Granted, this seems to be missing from many platforms these days but I think in the case of speech applications this is especially important because they can be tricky to test. First, "testing" is a very broad topic. There are many types of testing that you can (and should) do on a speech application not limited to the following. Functionality - This testin …
