President-elect Donald Trump is caught in a news cycle frenzy due to unsubstantiated allegations put forward in a recently published ‘dossier’. New claims have emerged that Russia has a dossier of alleged compromising material. The Russians conduct espionage and attempt to cultivate people all over the globe, all the time. This tactic shouldn’t be a shock – […]

The Hoka One One Clifton 3’s are embarrassing to look at first glance. But, I promise you – the Hoka One One’s are good shoes and that padding is necessary. They’re still light – and your knees might thank you in the future. If you’re a generous person, like me, you’ll eventually realize you can’t just […]

I don’t know if it’s a good thing or a bad thing. But, there’s an array of threats out there and some that we have a semblance of control over. Russia is not one of those threats at the moment. In a governmental flux – and the new heads of agencies and leaders probably don’t […]

Trump expressed both a desire to eliminate ISIS and concern for the lives lost in Syria, which means it’s likely he’ll take action with 5th Special Forces Group and JSOC. The President-elect Donald Trump made comments vowing to set up ‘safe zones’ in Syria. He made the comments in acknowledgment of the humanitarian crisis in […]

Hacking has become a buzzword in our society and it’s been misplaced on the leaked DNC emails that were almost given away, not stolen. The reality of this hack was it was simple, so simple your twelve-year-old daughter or son probably would have caught it. However, a DNC staffer fell for it. This is something […]

Sequestration wouldn’t be scary if the government hasn’t proved itself incapable of efficiently managing its funding and money. Defense officials have warned that sequestration is dangerous to national security. Sen. John McCain vowed to fight sequestration on the Hill. But, sequestration has been underway, and some pain has been dealt and, also, thanks to continuing […]

Training Today – REST. I think today is a good day to cheat on your diet, somewhat. I’m going to lay out some training for the weekend and it might not feel good to have eaten junk food in the midst of the training. Also, let me know what you think about Friday’s off and […]

We’ve all had friends who post that their Instagram […]
