In 1992, a U.S. Submarine and Russia Went Head-to-Head... Literally
*Sebastien Roblin*
*Submarines, *
The accident caused one of the United States’ first diplomatic incidents
with the newborn Russian government, with Secretary of State James Baker
having to meet in person with Yeltsin and assure him that the United States
would scale back its spying in Russian waters.
*Here's What You Need to Remember: *The *Baton Rouge *surely did not use
active sonar so as to remain undetected. Nor did it detect active sonar
from the *Kostroma*. Thus, neither vessel was using active sonar, and their
passive sonars were likely not strong enough to detect the oth... read more

Saturday Snippet: China, the USA and the "Long Game"
Rush Doshi's new book, "The Long Game: China's Grand Strategy to Displace
American Order", is an in-depth study of what has brought China to where it
is today, and what it plans to do in the short to medium term to take over
America's leadership role in the world.
It's not light or easy reading, but it's very informative. There's perhaps
no single factor likely to affect geopolitics and international
relationships over the next century or so as important as China and its
policies. The sheer mass of its population, its economic clout, and its
growing military presence - alre... read more

History and the Unreliable Narrator
Most English teachers have somewhere in their pocket that lesson about
Edgar Allan Poe's "The Telltale Heart." The story is narrated by a guy
who's clearly in the grip of madness, and so we have to filter what he
tells us through our understanding that what he's reporting is not what
another observer might see. He's an unreliable narrator, a literary trick
that Poe perfected, which is why for all Poe's reputation as a teller of
scary tales, there's nothing in Poe that is undeniably supernatural. Mostly
it's just subjective madness, filtered through the unreliable narrator's
twiste... read more

You are What You Eat: How Rice Almost Broke Imperial Japan
*James Simpson*
*Imperial Japan, Asia*
Beriberi—kakke in Japanese—affected all levels of Japanese society, but it
became especially prevalent among the urban residents of Edo, the classic
name for Tokyo.
*Here's What You Need to Remember: *Takaki’s statistical claims sometimes
fell on deaf ears. The establishment was more comfortable with laboratory
experiments and cold detachment from the human element of medicine.
Takaki’s success, they argued, was due to the sanitation benefits of living
on a warship, where everything could be disinfected.

Stay Back: China’s DF-100 Missiles are Meant to Kill Aircraft Carriers
*Sebastien Roblin*
*PLA, Asia*
China has already developed two truck-born “carrier-killing” anti-ship
ballistic missiles, the DF-21D and DF-26B, with ranges of around 1,000 and
2,000 miles respectively.
*Here's What You Need To Remember:* What is clear, however, is that the
Chinese government is telling the world that the DF-100 is a hypersonic,
regional-level anti-ship missile that will impose a new, challenging
threat-vector for long-range attacks against large warships over a thousand
miles of China’s coastline.

12,000 Rounds a Minute Couldn't Save This Gun From Failure
*Joseph Trevithick*
*Guns, *
The new weapon quickly became the black sheep of the gun family.
*Here's What You Need to Remember:* Gatling patented his rapid-firing gun
in 1862 and experimented with electric power 30 years later. G.E. revived
the idea with modern technology and materials after World War II.
General Electric’s armament division struck it big when it brought Gatling
guns back in the late 1950s. The company hoped it could sell different
models for almost every conceivable mission.

COVID: Study Finds Lower Antibody Activity Against Delta Variant at Single Dose – But Vaccines Still Work
*Zania Stamataki*
*Coronavirus, *
Continuing surveillance of our antibodies’ effectiveness against new

and when we need to update our vaccines.
Chris Whitty, the chief medical officer for England, recently announced that
the delta variant is no longer of concern because it now comprises 98% of
new cases in the country and is therefore “the normal variant”.
This virus has spread to at least 90 countries and is 50% more
