Durban Fiasco: Options for Third World Sudhanshu Tripathi - 1/13/2012 The recently held UN Conference on Climate Change in Durban could not blossom into full spirit.

ICAAN and gTLDs: Revolt and Fantasy Naseem Javed - 10/31/2011 I. A Made Up Fantasy and the ICANN GTLD Reality

Darwin’s diabolical delusions Ellis Washington - 9/30/2011 Liberals defend the guilty and impugn the innocent not only because they side with barbarians, but because a fair and just system of law challenges their hegemony as judges of the universe. How much is that? Naseem Javed - 9/28/2011 Is $185,000 the right price for a single gTLD? No, it's definitely not.

Forms, Pattern, and Substance Sam Vaknin, Ph.D. - 4/5/2011 We cannot conceive of any process of production without the dubious aid of the Watchmaker’s Metaphor: an artisan; a plan, or program, or procedure; raw materials, or inputs; and the finished product – all four elements distinct from one another. Yet, in nature, this division of labor is rarely true: in the vast majority of cases the raw materials and the program are one and the same and the artisan is missing altogether. |
