EXCERPT:

On the same day as the conference, The United Nations International
Telecommunications Union (ITU) issued a press release promoting global wireless
technology including: regulatory sandboxes of enterprise; ‘start-up and experiment’
interfaces and 5G projects”. The ITU sponsored a symposium in Geneva and produced
“guidelines for encouraging policy and regulatory measures to facilitate the deployment
and use of emerging technologies for affordable digital infrastructure and services”.

Presidential Memorandum on Developing a Sustainable Spectrum Strategy for America’s Future

https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/presidential-memorandum-developing-sustainable-spectrum-strategy-americas-future/

EXCERPT:

As the National Security Strategy of 2017 made clear, access to spectrum is a critical component of the technological capabilities that enable economic activity and protect national security.  Wireless communications and associated data applications establish a foundation for high‑wage jobs and national prosperity.  While American industry continues to extract greater and greater value from spectrum, each technological leap also increases demands on its usage.  Those demands have never been greater than today, with the advent of autonomous vehicles and precision agriculture, the expansion of commercial space operations, and the burgeoning Internet of Things signaling a nearly insatiable demand for spectrum access.  Moreover, it is imperative that America be first in fifth-generation (5G) wireless technologies — wireless technologies capable of meeting the high-capacity, low-latency, and high-speed requirements that can unleash innovation broadly across diverse sectors of the economy and the public sector.  Flexible, predictable spectrum access by the United States Government will help ensure that Federal users can meet current and future mission requirements for a broad range of both communications- and non-communications-based systems.

Title III Suspended For 45 Days; First Time Less Than 6 Months. Omnious For Cuba   1/16/2019

For the first time, Title III of the Libertad Act has been suspended for less than six months.  Using forty-five (45) days presents a likelihood of an ominous commercial, economic and political landscape for the Republic of Cuba, European Union (EU)-member countries, members of the World Trade Organization (WTO) and members of the United Nations.  Once again, the Trump Administration has used weaponized potentiality to create uncertainty and, thus anxiety.  Precisely the intention.

Ernst Young Accounting: Taxonomy – A scheme of classification.

Taxonomy is the process of naming and classifying things such as animals and plants into groups within a larger system, according to their similarities and differences.
  1. taxonomy | Definition of taxonomy in English by Oxford Dictionaries

    Definition of taxonomy – the branch of science concerned with classification, especially of organisms; systematics.
    The branch of science concerned with classification, especially of organisms; systematics.

    Taxonomy is the science of classification of plants and animals.

    Facts About Taxonomy

    • The word taxonomy is derived from two Greek words – taxis, which means order or arrangement, and nomos, which means law or science.
    • Taxonomy is normally shown or illustrated in a taxonomy tree that breaks down classifications and sub-classifications about a particular subject in a tree diagram.
    • The field of taxonomy largely began with “alpha taxonomy,” which is used to classify species and subspecies of plants and animals.
    • Taxonomy has expanded over the years to include the classification of both animate and inanimate objects.
    • In recent years, the concept of taxonomy has been used for the organization of subject matter in libraries and other information fields.
        1. An example of taxonomy is the way living beings are divided up into Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species.
        2. An example of taxonomy is the Dewey Decimal system – the way libraries classify non-fiction books by division and subdivisions. The number assigned, combined with the first three letters of the author’s last name, become the call number used for deciding the order of arrangment of books on the library shelf.
        3. An example of taxonomy is the way a website classifies and organizes available resources and information to help navigation within a website.

The Controversy of Phoenix Program

The Controversy of Phoenix Program

The Controversy of Phoenix Program

Although Phoenix (Phung Hoang) Program was a crucial element of the post Tet 1968 pacification plan, it has subsequently been considered among the most controversial CIA’s activities during the Vietnam War.

Phoenix Operations

Phoenix Program had the prime objective of gathering information on the VCI, which were then used to target and neutralize VCI members. Phoenix operations involved local militia and police instead of military as the main operational arm.

Phoenix 1967-1971

https://www.globalsecurity.org/intell/ops/vietnam-phoenix.htm

In 1967 the CIA’s Far East Division of Clandestine Services developed a program that came to be known as Phoenix. MACV through Civil Operations and Revolutionary Development Support [CORDS] supported the newly initiated CIA-sponsored Phung Hoang (All Seeing Bird) or “Phoenix” program as it was known in English, aimed at the elimination of high-ranking VC cadre. Although later alleged to be an assassination campaign, the stated purpose of the Phung Hoang was “to enlist and coordinate the efforts of local leaders police and paramilitary groups to identify and dismantle the subversive apparatus.”
