“I also urge the Obama administration - both on its own and in cooperation with other responsible governments around the world - to use all legal means necessary to shut down WikiLeaks before it can do more damage by releasing additional cables. WikiLeaks' activities represent a shared threat to collective international security.” WorldMeanUseGovernmentCan DoSecurityActivityResponsibleThreatInternationalAround The WorldAdministrationDamageCollectivesUrgesCooperationNational SecurityCablesWikileaksResponsible Government Author:Joe Lieberman
“It is important to understand what I mean by semiosis. All dynamic action, or action of brute force, physical or psychical, either takes place between two subjects, whether they react equally upon each other, or one is agent and the other patient, entirely or partially, or at any rate is a resultant of such actions between pairs. But by "semiosis" I mean, on the contrary, an action, or influence, which is, or involves, a cooperation of three subjects, such as a sign, its object, and its interpretant, this tri-relative influence not being in any way resolvable into actions between pairs.” WayMeanTwoImportantActionThreeForceInfluenceSubjectsObjectsPatientRateContraryAgentsPairsCooperationRelativeBrutesBrute Force Author:Charles Sanders Peirce
