As technology continues to evolve and change, its effect on our lives does as well. Every now and then it can be helpful to take stock of how we are using it in our lives and what side effects it could be having. Recently I've done this myself and noted several negative effects I hadn't realized before. This led me to several research studies that outlined more consequences to using technology that are good to be aware of.

Often in life it feels like everybody has an opinion about everything. It can be difficult to sort useful input and resources from those that just don't work for you. Military life is no exception.

Most people are familiar with the phrase from the Marine corps song from the shores of Tripoli, but do you know the origin of that phrase? The recent situation regarding the Houthi pirates led me to look into our interaction with the Barbary pirates in the past. What similarities are there between the two sets of circumstances and what can we learn from what happened in the First Barbary war?

What we read informs and impacts the way we view the world around us. With this in mind, what are we exposing ourselves to day in and day out. I realized I was not reading as much as I wanted to. Over the last few years I've set goals to increase the variety and amount of the books I read. I want to share my favorites and not so favorites that I read this year, with you.
