  Our today’s program is aimed to enhance your leader skills. Leadership is a natural part of your life. Your every action from the very childhood was related to opportunity to develop and strengthen it. And, by the way, leadership is not only the ability to take command over the people and lead them along. Leadership is ability to say in a good hour the things to be said and, on the contrary, to remain silent when you want to answer so much. Leadership is a help to your fellow ones. Leadership is about getting up early feeling like all the world is at your feet and you can be worthy contribution into development of this world. Leadership is a mentality which helps you to make right decisions and take actions which benefit you and the people around you. And even if you didn’t have much occasions to prove yourself as a leader, believe me when I’m saying that your nature has been striving and strives to it from your very first breath in this world. And to exercise this right given to you from birth, I’ll lead you through the depths of your subconscious mind to the very source of your nature as a leader. And now, the adventure on your way to grasp the leadership has begun.

  The Cognitive Amplification...

  Martin K Ettington

  This book describes a way of thinking, not a tool. 
  It argues that artificial intelligence is not intelligent, that fluent output is not understanding, and that the real risk in human–machine interaction is not that machines will replace us—but that we will stop thinking clearly while using them. The central idea of the book is cognitive amplification: using tools to extend human reasoning while preserving human judgment, intent, and responsibility. 
  Methods like this, however, face a practical problem. They are easy to understand and difficult to apply consistently. 
  Most people already believe they think in stages. In practice, intent is vague, constraints are assumed rather than defined, options are prematurely narrowed, and conclusions are accepted because they sound coherent. Under time pressure or when interacting with persuasive systems, discipline collapses. 
  This is where the Cognitive Amplification Engine (CAE) enters—not as an authority, and not as an artificial mind, but as a structured environment. 
  This book is a companion for the CAE plugin for wordpress which helps automate this structured thinking process

  Rare Earth Elements & Critical...

  A 36‑lecture audio course on the materials that run the modern world—from ore bodies and brines to magnets, batteries, chips, and reactors. Each lecture focuses on one element or mineral, tracing its journey from deposit geology through beneficiation and refining to the devices it powers. 
  We make the flowsheet legible: comminution and flotation; roasting, high‑pressure acid leaching, solvent extraction, and ion exchange; separation to oxides and metals; alloying and specialty powders. See how neodymium‑iron‑boron magnets are born, why lithium hexafluorophosphate matters in electrolytes, where gallium nitride wins in power, how graphite anodes evolve with silicon, and how the uranium fuel cycle and vanadium flow batteries actually work. 
  Markets and politics are treated as engineering constraints. Learn to spot yield killers, read offtake agreements, and separate strategic scarcity from narrative. Test real substitutions—ferrites in small motors, sodium‑ion for short‑range storage, gallium nitride versus silicon carbide—and where performance cliffs block redesign. We map chokepoints beyond the mine: separation capacity, reagents, waste handling, water and energy intensity, and manufacturer qualification cycles. Then we follow the consequences—export controls and quotas, permitting and community consent, tariffs and friend‑shoring, standards and labeling rules. 
  Rigorous, narrative‑driven, and built for the intellectually ambitious, this course is an operator’s guide to the science, supply chains, and statecraft of a materials‑constrained century.
