Armchair Generalist: DOD Chem-Bio Defense Budget
It's difficult to analyse the DoD CB Defense Program's FY08/09 budget without looking at the longer-term trends before and after the 2008-2013 Program Objective Memorandum (POM). If you look at the OSD Comptroller's web site for FY 2008 and access the procurement and RDT&E programs, you'll find the appropriate documents for the CBDP. I thought that I would give an overview today, talk about procurement tomorrow , and talk about RDT&E on Thursday. Overall, the DoD CBDP will obligate $1.63 billion dollars in FY 2008 against 40-odd acquisition projects and other efforts. That's a bit less than one percent ...

coalition presence, as well as the activities of the various armed groups operating in the country) have come in many forms, and the accuracy of the information available on different types of Iraq War casualties varies greatly. The table below summarizes some of the Iraqi casualty figures. For troops in the U.S.-led multinational coalition , the death toll is carefully tracked and updated daily, and the names and photographs of those killed in action as well as in accidents have been published widely. Regarding the Iraqis, however, information on both military and civilian casualties is both less precise and less consistent. ...

What a joke this Jang Group of Newspapers is playing with Pakistan and India both by riding two boats at the same time. Jang Group's Urdu "RAG" Daily Jang carries a news wherein the correspondent has indirectly declared that I A Rehman (Human Rights Commission of Pakistan), Asma Jahangir (Human Rights Commission of Pakistan) and Muneeza Hashmi are Indian Agents whereas the English Version of the same "RAG" of the Jang Groups doesn't even mention the name of the three. INDIAN High Commissioner to Pakistan Sharat Sabharwal visited the Lahore University of ... Read More

Zeke Minaya, Stars and Stripes Mideast edition, Monday, May 21, 2007 TAJI, Iraq — Mirroring a nationwide trend, tribes near Baghdad are on the verge of banding together against al-Qaida and have met with U.S. military officials seeking aid and guidance in fighting the terrorist network. Acceptance of — if not outright support for — al-Qaida among the tribes eroded after the strict Islamic law imposed by insurgents clashed with the authority of the sheikhs, according to U.S. military officials. On Saturday, a group of local chieftains met with military commanders and a representative of the State Department at Camp Taji, about 20 ...

Ever since 2008, I’ve been posting proposals of real reforms of the DOD (as opposed to the pseudoreforms instituted by Bob Gates). I publish the complete, updated, comprehensive package of defense reform proposals (which I dubbed the DRPP) every month. This is the 8th edition of the DRPP. Sadly, rather than heed my advice, Gates has decided to continue his ridiculous “defense policies” and to excuse himself with lies. He continues to significantly cut the conventional arsenals of the US military and conventional weapon programs to pay for his two wars of country-building. The result is that the US military is fading away ...

Personal computers are a growing waste management problem. In 1998 alone,
more than 20 million PCs became obsolete in the US, and fewer than 11
percent of them were recycled. 1 The
rest -- almost 18 million computers -- were landfilled, incinerated, or
stored away in closets or warehouses. By 2007, the cumulative number of
obsolete computers in the US is expected to rise to 500 million. 2 Although recycling facilities for computers are increasingly available,
techniques for waste prevention, such as extending computer lifetimes, need
to be improved. This fact sheet provides strategies ...

I’m not going to go into that level of depth this year primarily because there has been so very little change from last year. This is not entirely unexpected, since as an off-year budget (between POM cycles), there isn’t much change other than some programming tweaks that have to be made for immediate cost/schedule reasons. Next year, plan on seeing some major changes in the POM FY 2010-2015. Business as usual this year. You can find the source documents for the FY09 budget at the OSD budget materials page . Overall, the DoD CBDP will obligate $1.62 billion dollars in FY 2009 against 40-odd acquisition projects and other ...

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
What is the (probably software related) job that I want called, and how can I get that job now rather than later? Obscenely lengthy explanation inside. My husband recently recieved a death-threat via email from a former coworker. We want to know what we can do to track his home address, car, and other stuff, so we don't run into him. An adolescent relative in her senior year of high school is suffering depression, and recently spoke to a psychiatrist about suicide, which resulted in her near-hospitalization. She's taken Zoloft, and done some therapy -- what now? I'm working on an electric recumbent bicycle using a ...
