GDP and the WAR time economy

Since I've previously talked about how the State can train a soldier to do quite amazing things, I've often wondered how a state can instead invest in a scientist, technician or entrepreneurs.

The Philippines spends around 2% GDP in the military. I figure about roughly 40% of our GDP is lost in corruption and the feudalism of the organization. looking at what America was able to do when they allocated 1% of their GDP on the space project during kenedy's time (and currently 5% on the military). I was wondering if the Philippines will ever have a leader that can push the envelope and create a specialized infrastructure designed to train filipinos to take up science and tech jobs all around the world.

basically, allocate enough GDP to make WAR on poverty. A REAL WWI vs poverty economy! Training as many highly skilled technicians to bring up the technological infrastructure base of the the Asia an the developing worlds UP to meet developed worlds standards but at a level of efficiency and sustainability with the hindsight of what had happened.

The next president, if someone with brains and a political cunning to get projects going (something you have to give villar- if he will do a project it will get done; not get caught up with the problems a incompetent president would get into) can put the country ini the MOST Sweet-spots of opportunity: a real war time economy to fight poverty.

Thats what I'd like to see; Jobs created by funding the building of Schools. More competition against the Antiquated and Obsolute established educational institutions, Taking in more foreign students to make the country a Training and Schooling Capital of South-East Asia!

With the foreign money and the technical expertise going up, projects like Subways, Mass transit systems, better infrastructure and quality of life measures in Metro manila and all the other cities.

Good News... it seems asia will be the first to emerge out of the recession. My sources is my Politics and History guru friend, but knowing his sources I can keep that information in the back of my mind.

I believe that the philippines despite its own imperfections can adopt War-fighting morale. It should even be a war-time slogan posted in ALL the bill boards "DIGMAAN LABAN ANG KAHIRAPAN" War on POVERTY!!!

Technically I'm done with the project

no charter . after learning what a charter is and because they don't work with a charter I'll never do a project without it. A charter is a written agreement with a project sponsor/employer/ in what outputs to be expected and what points are needed to consider a project done. I've never worked with a character before and was continually frustrated and depressed because of constant revisions and fluctuating tastes and expectations. I'd rather be thought of a total prick than to destroy my life working without a charter. This comes up because, when technically my dad removed me from the website project I'm being asked to arrange it again. This fuels my wishes, not to mention memories of unbearable depressions, to really leave the company I just joined in 2 months. Honestly, I'm here cause my parents want me. They can't make me want this job. I was doing well in the 3d artist track, I was poor but well, less stressed and still hopeful of my future. Personally,

Gurps Mysteries

A really great GM book . If there was Game Mastering for Dummies (not just for DnD or GURPS ), Gurps Mysteries is the next level of Advanced Game Mastering. This is where the players grow up a little, they are not as interested in Hack and Slash anymore and they begin to lean on a more cerebral challenge. One of the best elements of this books is how to communicate clearly to your players through clues and hints in the game. Despite its focus on mystery, this books i great for any intrigue. Eventually mastering these technqies, format, and story telling will allow for games to have a very clear and sophisticated finish. An art onto itself, and not just a game. Of course the most important element is having fun. Fun is when you and the players are on the same page no matter what you throw at them to challenge their characters and give them a chance to shine. Filled with too much information . I'm excited at what I learned about armor smithing in the early Renaissance and late

330mg of Caffeine will do the trick

Ok i got a grande brewed coffee and put 8-10 packets of brown sugar thats about 155 calories. This is twice the amount of Caffeine i get from my 2 shots of espresso in the morning with 4 teaspoons of brown sugar. How do i feel... Better! although my face is reeling from the bitter after taste of the coffee. good coffee is really sour going down and really bitter after. The intense sugar tends to make the sourness taste fruity. Anyway, my is elevated and I'm a bit hyper but i am able to control that better these days. The tons of notebook and the emotional intelligence studies help. Particularly when i've broken down most of my peculiarities and the way I think. Heck, I think i can make an entire wiki based on how I'd react to certain things. It would be very revealing and transparent of me, and of course like the anything so vulnerable subject to abuse when falling in the wrong hands. I have to email, a friend back some airsoft details.
