Global Thermoform Packaging Market to Witness a Phenomenal Growth by Reaching Over $64534.2 Million by 2028 | Exclusive Report by Esticast Research ...

Mike Brown is the director of the Defense Innovation Unit. Prior to DIU, Mike served as CEO of Symantec Corporation and Chairman and CEO of Quantum Corporation. Mike also served for two years as a White House Presidential Innovation Fellow at DoD where he co-authored a Pentagon study on Chinas participation in the U.S. venture ecosystem. The views expressed in the article reflect those of the author and do not reflect the official policy or position of the Department of Defense or the U.S. Government.

TheTechCrunch Global Affairs Projectexamines the increasingly intertwined relationship between the tech sector and global politics.

On November 15, 2021 Russia launched an anti-satellite missile into low-earth orbit without warning, successfully destroying a Russian satellite. Projectile debris from this event not only endangered the astronauts aboard the International Space Station, but also could cause severe damage to satellites that support critical infrastructure here on Earth, such as GPS and power grids, for many years to come.

Just one month prior, China launched a hypersonic missile that circled the Earth and would be impossible to defend against with current technology.

These events are a wake-up call: The United States technological leadership is not assured, and the global standards we developed and maintained with our partners and allies are being rewritten, as new technological advancements give rise to new threats to our nations security.

But these new threats are not insurmountable. In fact, these events should serve as a clarion call for entrepreneurs and investors at the forefront of emerging technology domains, including artificial intelligence, space, cybersecurity and autonomous systems.

To meet the rising challenges posed by asymmetric and cyber warfare, we need to work together Pentagon, academia, and industry as we did more than 60 years ago to build Silicon Valley and our nations technological leadership of today. Government investments helped to create the internet and semiconductors, as well as map the human genome.

I came to the Department of Defense after 30 years in the commercial technology sector to help rebuild the ties that underwrote much of our countrys economic strength and global leadership over the past half century.

The DoD is actively pursuing a technology modernization agenda that not only reflects the changing nature of warfare but also engenders a series of necessary business process reforms. For example, in commercial space, companies are already deploying small satellites to provide more ubiquitous internet access and pioneer rapid launch capability to deliver payloads to various geospatial layers; self-driving cars are providing transportation options; swarming drones are surveilling oil pipelines and inspecting commercial buildings and infrastructure.

These innovations are all dual-use technologies, meaning they have military applications as well. Networking these solutions together is supported by global cloud options that are cost-effective, secure and scalable. Just like companies do, the military needs to harness the insights contained in voluminous data to generate predictive capabilities through AI and machine learning that yield faster and better decision-making.

Business process reforms are equally important to improving our defense posture. Most of the DoDs business processes were established in the 1960s and focused on building large weapons platforms such as tanks, ships and planes. Rapid advancements in the commercial sector, which promise to enhance our militarys technological edge, mean that the Pentagon now needs to buy many more technologies that complement the large weapons platforms we continue to buy.

Its clear the coming decade will be one characterized by intense competition among nations for preeminence in technology. For an increasing number of commercial vendors, this will represent an unprecedented opportunity to tackle complex problems together with the Defense Department.

For instance, with assets in air, space, undersea, on land and in cyberspace, the national security apparatus is effectively the largest collection of sensors in the world. To date, however, these sensors are not designed to seamlessly integrate; rather, they are typically built and operated in silos, making it challenging to implement updates and develop a common operating picture. Building an Internet of Things in spacea global sensor network would provide real-time situational awareness, a resilient communications infrastructure as a backbone for operational decisions and the basis for an autonomous force of sea, land, air and space systems that are small, numerous and agile.

These systems will generate immense amounts of data requiring increased storage, management and analytics, and technology modernization means building better tools to collect information, analyze it, understand it, and make better decisions in the interest of national security. It will also involve more sophisticated protection from cyber vulnerabilities.The physical manifestation of these new capabilities will require greener energy use.

Commercial companies are developing these technologies today, and the DoD must increase its capacity to quickly assess and efficiently procure these solutions enhancing our national security and driving commercial prosperity. Executing this vision means more companies than ever before can participate in a once-in-a-generation economic opportunity that likewise enhances national security in the 21st Century.

To deliver the best technology to our military, then-Defense Secretary Ash Carter recognized the need to break down institutional barriers and inject fresh ideas, technologies, and methodologies from the commercial sector. In 2015, he announced the opening of the Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) to rebuild this connection. DIU was designed to bring innovative and faster contracting mechanisms to bear, making it easier, more desirable and more profitable to do business with the DoD.

At DIU weve already seen how powerful this collaboration can be, from providing ongoing investment at key points of hardware and software lifecycles, uninterrupted access to testing facilities, and showing commercial companies a path to linear growth in the defense sector. This collaboration can accelerate a products development or stimulate a companys growth, showing investors access to new markets.

But maintaining U.S. leadership in key technologies requires changing the 60-year-old acquisition system. DoD is no longer the first mover, the primary investor, or market maker for many technologies today. DoD needs to become a fast follower, adapting and integrating commercial technology not developed by the DoD, to solve defense problems. To do this, DIU is advocating action in three areas:

These three areas may seem obvious but overcoming long-established processes in defense planning and Congressional approval is not easy. And ensuring we can make the sound business case to technology firms of supporting work in national security is essential since there are large markets to serve outside of defense

Accelerating the pace of change and removing barriers cannot be done solely inside the DoD or with a select few commercial companies participating. We need all sides of the triangle of business, academia and government actively engaged, providing different ideas and approaches to accelerate our pace of modernization. Rebuilding the connection between DoD and commercial industry from exchanging talent, acquiring products, having open communications on key issues is critical.

DoD leadership recognizes that we are living through a technological moment unlike any other in our nations history. DIU has a unique and important role to play in bringing commercial technology and methodologies to modernize both critical parts of the militarys infrastructure. Together, like we have done in the past with the birth of Silicon Valley, we can ensure a secure and prosperous future for our nation.

Reigniting the Pentagon and Silicon Valley partnership - TechCrunch

Two men at the Washington Parish Jail recently gave drugs to a third incarcerated man who died Thursday after taking them, authorities alleged the following afternoon.

Washington Parish Sheriff Randy Seal said Friday that Prentis N. Slocum, 42 of Columbia, Miss., and Cameron James Roy Seal, 21 of Washington Parish, will face counts of second degree murder and principal to second degree murder, respectively, for the death of Brandon Christopher Williams, 31, of Bogalusa.

A spokesman for the Sheriff's Office said Williams started showing signs of "medical distress" around 2 p.m. Thursday and was removed from the jail's housing unit by deputies and a registered nurse. Northshore EMS took him to Riverside Medical Center in Franklinton, the sheriff's office said.

Williams, whom the agency did not identify until Friday, later died at the hospital.

The sheriff's office said Friday that Slocum was transferred to Washington Parish on Tuesday from the Pike County, Miss., jail, and had "narcotics" concealed "inside his body" when he arrived in Louisiana, which he allegedly later gave to Williams and Seal before Williams died.

Twice daily we'll send you the day's biggest headlines. Sign up today.

All three men had adverse reactions to the narcotics, the office said.

Williams had been in the Washington Parish Jail awaiting trial since July 2021, on home invasion and other counts, the sheriff said. Seal, according to the sheriff's office, had been in custody there since Jan. 31 on a contempt of court count.

Other people may face criminal counts for Williams' death, the sheriff's office said.

Lawyers for Seal and Slocum could not immediately be reached for comment Friday evening.

An ongoing coroner's exam on Williams' body will determine the exact cause of death, the sheriff's office said.

Global Oil & Gas Processing Seals Market Predicted To Grow Drastically And Reach $7.2 Billion By 2025 | Exclusive Report by Esticast Research The...

The process of manufacturing seals in ancient times seems to have been left to a select group of artisans. In Ur, for example, lapidaries or stone carvers were identified on a tablet and depicted working together with other artisans, crafting stone works, leather, wood, ropes, reed, and metal.

In earlier periods, such as the Ubaid period and up to the middle of the third millennium, as technology was still limited, craftsmen worked with softer stones like chlorite, steatite, serpentine, marble, limestone, and alabaster since these materials could be more easily manipulated and crafted into seals.

In contrast, stamp seals were often manufactured using onyx, porphyry, carnelian, sard, banded agate, and crystal quartz. As technologies were developed and evolved so too did seal design and since seal carving was idiosyncratic from one region and period to another, the seals can be precisely dated. Yet as southern Mesopotamia was largely an alluvial plain, stones for seals and cylinder seal production had to be imported. Iran is considered a likely source which also further demonstrates the extent of trade and commerce that had developed throughout Uruk and Mesopotamia.

As commerce and trade grew throughout the region, no doubt the need for more complex administrative controls also began to evolve in-situ. Simple stamp seals were no longer good enough. Cylinder seals provided administrators and craftsmen the ability to include both more information and an ability to develop a highly utilitarian tool for marking and sealing a larger surface. Unlike its relative the stamp seal, the cylinder seal, because of its larger surface area could support an unending narrative. Cylinder seals could be used for a variety of administrative controls, this shape made it possible to easily cover irregular surfaces with the images carved on the seal.

The Chau Chak Wing seal was carved in calcite, a material which may have come from Iraq or the southern Levant where ancient calcite quarries have been discovered and analysed such as at Teomim and the Abud Caves. Thus, further demonstrating expanding trade or even plundering throughout the region and during the period as new rulers looked to assert their divine rights and control over ancient lands.
