http://www.cognitoergosum.net/2015_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, March 19, 2015. The March to Madness (2015 edition). Right then, I guess I was completely off about VCU's chances. Last year, wasn't I? It's not for the lack of trying, I was rusty. Thankfully though, that's not the national story that dominated the headlines right after Selection Sunday. It was the fact that Duke got a #1 seed. Yes, i'm picking on them again. Why? It's possible). They are the prohibitive favorites.but will they win? Fill out a bracket. Sunday, March 1, 2015. And so it was set&...

http://www.cognitoergosum.net/2015_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 16, 2015. A (Long) Winter's Hiatus Ends. Has it really been four months? When I set out to write the last few columns from last year, my intent was the to post them in a timely manner. The same was the case in January as well. All attempts during fell flat for a myriad of reasons and for that, I apologize for not posting anything sooner. Both writers and journalists that have integrity? You know, the part that misremembers ;). Moreover, who can be trusted to deliver us the news? The stor...

Cognito Ergo Sum: Issacson and Innovation
http://www.cognitoergosum.net/2014/05/issacson-and-innovation.html
Thursday, May 29, 2014. It isn’t exactly a secret that as the tech boom of the 90’s segued from a post y2k-modernist world into what can only be considered a 21. It just wouldn't be creative - meaning that humans would have to be. That remains to be seen. Certainly, the opportunity is there. The question is: will we take advantage of it?

Cognito Ergo Sum: Super Bowl XXVI: 20 Years Later
http://www.cognitoergosum.net/2012/01/super-bowl-xxvi-20-years-later.html
Thursday, January 26, 2012. Super Bowl XXVI: 20 Years Later. This particular piece wasn't meant to be written. Yet, as I opened the morning edition of my hometown Washington Post and turned, after reading the Front Page and Metro sections, to the Sports section, I couldn't help but notice what today marked. Yes, it's been that long. And yes, I was nine when they last won. In a related side note: it's very telling that the Ravens organization (as well as Ravens fans) feel it fitting that they want to expa...

Cognito Ergo Sum: Winter Lecture Series Recap
http://www.cognitoergosum.net/2015/03/winter-lecture-series-recap.html
Sunday, March 1, 2015. Winter Lecture Series Recap. And so it was set. I grabbed a ticket and the lecture series of Nye, Scalia, Ginsburg and Tyson was actually happening. To me, the only thing that could come close to making this a better series was if Richard Dean Anderson, in his famous role of Macgyver, was sitting down to talk about his time as well as the planning behind his tricks on "Macgyver.". That never happened. Oh well. Hey, it could happen. That really hit home for me. We all need a chi...

Cognito Ergo Sum: The March to Madness (2014 edition)
http://www.cognitoergosum.net/2014/03/the-march-to-madness-2014-edition.html
Tuesday, March 18, 2014. The March to Madness (2014 edition). As I was saying. True, this annual column took last year off because of what A-Rod and what the BBWA did. But that was probably because that was what ended up dominating the news cycle then. Those who have read this column at anytime in the last 13.5 years knows already who I'm rooting for - that story has already been told (twice, here. You're rewarded with a tough bracket. Good luck to you and thanks for playing. Data Analytics has become a ...

Cognito Ergo Sum: The Redskins Name Change Debacle
http://www.cognitoergosum.net/2014/06/the-redskins-name-change-debacle.html
Thursday, June 19, 2014. The Redskins Name Change Debacle. And so it began. Something other than "Washington Football Team" because let's be honest, while that's great, i'd much rather call it by a different nickname than the WFT's. Meanwhile, the "debate" whether real or fabricated, rages on. Yesterday, the Patent and Trademark Office pulled what I consider to be the ultimate ninja move. Be for changing the team name. Why change the name? Yes I've spoken to many of them (and I was. Change the name Danny...

Cognito Ergo Sum: When Enough is Enough
http://www.cognitoergosum.net/2014/04/when-enough-is-enough.html
Tuesday, April 29, 2014. When Enough is Enough. Over the course of history, this country has had many notable bouts with racism. While last week’s remarks from Donald Sterling. Owner of the Los Angeles Clippers) may not be as notable, what is quite notable is how Commissioner of the NBA Adam Silver addressed these comments today. Also important is how this decision will impact the conversation about racism in this country. 8221; Sure he can! Will this spread to other sports leagues? Amul is from the DC m...
