  1. @RCEast But the article specifically is citing JIEDDO's efforts vs. the interdiction portion.
  2. @RCEast But the story shows incidents down by over 20% in first 90 days of 2012. JIEDDO not more effective, just fewer attacks.
  3. "A traditional dance of the Maori...that features vigorous chest thumping and stamping of the feet." flic.kr/p/c1Lnyw
  4. Beatles. Awesome. “@AANafgh: AAN Blog: Happy Christmas (2014), Will War Be Over? fb.me/1MJQFBTPx
  5. @Doctrine_Man But the system is a standalone that doesn't talk to other systems. #WhyIHatedCIDNE
  6. A really neato piece about more Army tech that doesn't talk to other Army tech. via @Doctrine_Man ow.ly/bakOZ
  7. Your daily dose of Twitter genius. MT @AfghanPolicy: Is @DionNissenbaum covering the #Afghan war or some Afghan picnic on HinduKush?”
  8. .@Reuters pics of the week. #1 is genuinely moving. ow.ly/bakKq
  9. Changes Coming as the Army Expands Use of Early Discharge Authority of Regular Army Enlisted Members ow.ly/bakrc
  10. I think, finally, .@RCEast has outdone itself: "Her feisty attitude belies her ethereal appearance." ow.ly/bakjT
  11. @ReutersTaylor @reuters I want to get excited about the SPA. I do. But not seeing its value beyond the political.
  12. @ReutersTaylor @reuters The boat badly needs floating at the moment. Things like the approval of a do-nothing agreement do that.
  13. Yay. No, really. Yay. “@ReutersTaylor: Afghan parliament approves U.S.-Afghan security pact reut.rs/Kpxmjo via @reuters
  14. @morealtitude @lkatzenberg Oh. So you're discussing actual misery. You win. And yuk re: Karachi.
  15. @morealtitude @lkatzenberg I like candy. I don't like DXB. Except for the Potbelly.
  16. @morealtitude @lkatzenberg McD's with the weird food, WiFi that drops offline, and no idea what the Sweet Factory is. I may be bitter.
  17. @morealtitude @lkatzenberg Ugh. 9 hours in DXB? Just. Shoot. Me.
