marine reconnaissance 

A Recon Marine can speak without saying a word, and achieve what others can only imagine. SWIFT! SILENT! DEADLY! Reconnaissance Marines are the hardest mother fuckers on the planet. They remain humble, never expecting the fame or glory given to other branches special forces. They are the silent killers, the dangerous ones, the men who always have a plan to kill everyone they know. Recon teams are assigned the types of missions that the American public will never hear about, the missions that the government denies, in a country that American forces are not welcome. The Recon MART/BRC selection process is arguably the hardest in the United States Military. It pays to be a winner. Only the smartest and strongest marines are accepted into the recon training company. The Reconnaissance community is not a place for the weak or faint hearted.
"My men have a child like fear of the dark, they know that the men with green and black faces lurk in the night, these are not normal Americans, they are called Recon Marines." -North Vietnamese Army commander Arizona Territory, South Vietnam 1969 1st Marine Reconnaissance Battalion of Ocean slime CA, known by Terry Taliban as "The Sons of Satan"

Renaissance Woman 

You know if you are born a Renaissance Woman, or have met a Renaissance Woman, because:

You/She can mix the knowledge of what is considered disparate spheres into a new whole,

by using her most unique method of analysis based on

her very vast, deep, curiosity and experiences...

which led to a very vast & deep knowledge,

that she is so anxious to apply to everyday life, &
to inquire, and share with everyone she meets.
Real Question from top Venture Capital Fund CEO (note, he's in his 70's, ex - RIT, Xerox Exec.) during 7th , and final, interview with firm in 2000):

"How do you reconcile your math skills with such a personality?" That is, how can you have disparate skills - fun & math?- how do you reconcile being a "Renaissance Woman"? After recovering from the shock of such a question (I haven't even mentioned my art studies, piano lessons, theater, music exposure/loves), I responded - "I don't think that having math skills and a personality are mutually exclusive. How can you operate in business without being able to communicate with other people?". That's the lesson - I was able to communicate with all 7 interviewers because I had lived in , knew someone from, knew something about, and was interested in, a subject of interest to the interviewer. The lack of a "Renaissance" mind-set defines the "State of the Union" today - no one is communicating because people are closing their spheres instead of opening them and comprehending the multitude of their connections. That's how a nerd hippie got hired by a Mormon venture capital fund.
