A collaborative undertaking between an artist and a philosopher,

"contemplative seeing" by addressing the works of Plato, Thoreau,
Heidegger, and more. The authors explore what it means to "see"
reality and contemplate how viewing reality philosophically and
artfully is a form of spirituality. In this way, by developing a
new conception of active visual engagement, the authors propose a
way of seeing that unites both critical scrutiny and spiritual
involvement, as opposed to simple passive reception.

Once again the specter of terrorism was thrust to the center of
attention. The 25 June 1996 terrorist attack on Khobar Towers,
Saudi Arabia, resulting in the death of 19 airmen, shook Pentagon
halls. Yet only thirteen years earlier, a suicide car bomber killed
241 US Marines Beirut, Lebanon. Can the US effectively protect its
forces against terrorism? This report investigates the Beirut
bombing and the Khobar Towers attack to critically examine the
recommendations for the improvement of DOD intelligence,
counterintelligence, and security missions in combating terrorism.
Recommendations following the Beirut bombing were not universally
implemented by all services, leaving US military forces vulnerable
to terrorist attacks. However, the wide-ranging recommendations
emanating from the Khobar Towers incident were used as a template
for enhancing the DOD combating terrorism program. Yet, there are
several people who have taken exception to some Task Force
recommendations. The proper use of limited intelligence and
counterintelligence resources can assist in identifying terrorist
threats to US forces and comprehensive terrorist threat assessments
must guide the implementation of appropriate security measures to
defend against the identified threats. While DOD intelligence and
counterintelligence programs remain strong, they can be improved by
examining their shortfalls prior to the Beirut bombing and Khobar
Towers attack.
