I think one could point to Oct 7.
What do you mean?
*Relieves
That's probably not wrong, and it explains why all the post-facto explanations add up to a nonsense: Everyone either consciously or subconsciously had reconstructed imagined policy imperatives that relives them of individual responsibility.
The Sleepwalkers, by Christopher Clark, is about the best take on the outbreak of WWI you're gonna find.
The traditional narrative is that deliberate policies of Russia, Austria-Hungary, Germany and France predetermined their actions. Clark's take is that the July crisis was policy improvisation.
Precisely
Medvedev is a drunk and his job is to keep Russians high on their own supply. His individual utterances are 100 percent not news. The news is the message in aggregate. Covering his bullshit on individual turd basis is essentially misleading reporting.
Deli meat, fruit, espresso and cigarettes?
I think that both the Nation and the veteran community would be better off as a whole if people demanded more of us and reminded us regularly that we agreed to uphold high standards and be a part of something bigger than ourselves.
I don't believe that you fulfilled your commitment to your country and community when you hit your EAOS. I think it continues, in whatever way you find that best serves the American people and your community.
Post-9/11 I think
I think the "thank you for your service" thing really takes veterans off the hook. There's a lot of agreement among us post-9/11 types that we don't like being thanked. Maybe if people insist on saying "thank you," they could pair it with "What are you doing to continue to serve the nation today?"
Yes, my LinkedIn profile just screams... criminal justice degree
"David, what do you do when you are having trouble sleeping?"
He keeps us on schedule with meals, play, "work" (he puts his toys away in the basket) and bedtime.
Zigs is a very funny dog. The Late Hound and patron saint was just the polar opposite personality of this guy. Layla liked big adventures with lots of sniffs and to generally do her own thing. Ziggy just likes to be included, needs at least two cuddles a day, and needs his little jobs to perform
TFW you want to participate in the photoshoot but there are seagulls to chase.
That is a very good headline
Corporate Dave has strong opinions about PowerPoint
This a SmartArt PowerPoint object devised by a lunatic
How I imagine myself after tying a knot to fix my dog's leash:
My excellent former colleague and present friend Jen Judson of Defense News is here. Give her a follow.
Saw this in my inbox and immediately wondered if there was some kind of political uprising in Poland that I was unaware of. This is your brain on NATSEC
And to respond to your evergreen prompt: Currently reading a book about the Napoleonic Wars called The Napoleonic Wars, funnily enough.
I believe pharmacies in the UK are contracted with the NHS but are independent businesses. France as well but they regulate that each pharmacy is pharmacist owned, I believe. I certainly see your point -- this issue in particular is complicated the world over
Getting excited for all the Israeli-Palestinian experts on Twitter to suddenly become experts on the 1951 mutual defense treaty between the Philippines and the US
This was inevitable. Escalation beyond this point is not, but it cannot be discounted. An accident that causes a death would quickly become a crisis, as we saw a few weeks back with the PH fisherman killed by a transiting ship.

I tried to explain today that what I need is a pot of money that is entirely at my disposal to finance all my good product ideas as they come up and that folks should just trust me but this didn't land quite like I hoped it would
Ehhhhhhh
