Deep Half.

So there's a concept in BJJ/Judo called "base", and it's all about knowing the center of gravity of your opponent and also knowing where they're support structures are, and which direction they can flex and push. I know almost nothing about such things (as evidenced by my performance at INFILTRATE's BJJ Open Mat last year), but one thing that does resonate is the weirdness of the "deep half <http://thejiujitsulab.wordpress.com/2011/07/24/deep-half-guard-part-i/>" position. An outside observer would say "why are you crawling under that guy so he can sit on your face?" Generally what happens is that you have your legs wrapped around his legs and your head under his "frame" (euphemistically) and you have the option of trying to roll out behind him or find a few ways to throw him and end up on top. To put it into terms even I can understand: Being directly under someone means you control their base because their center of gravity is directly on top of you, and you are controlling their support structures, which sucks for them. This is where cyberwar is now. As much as it seems all the focus on cyberwar in the legislative branch is going to get exploits regulated, crypto stomped on, reverse engineering penalized, copyright infringement penalties increased, etc. it's clear that governments have realized that with tiny movements of cyber, massive changes in society's balance can occur, and there's not a lot they can do about it. This is a good thing for people on this list. One thing government people CAN do is attend INFILTRATE <http://www.infiltratecon.com/>this May. It's budget season and we've already got one really exciting talk lined up on advanced post-exploitation and covert channels. You should call now to reserve your spot before all of DC shuts down due to a lack of trash collection. :> -dave
