The New World-- Triage, Censorship, Iziki, Social Distancing... Conservative Self Extinction
The other day, I cooked up an old side dish I used to make when I was a chef in Amsterdam in the 1970s-- carrots, daikon and iziki. Except I had no iziki in the house and used nori as a substitute. It was delicious but it wasn't the same. So the next day, I suited up with the Base Camp N-99 mask I bought for hiking in the Himalayas a couple of years ago, along with the wrap-around shades Al Jourgenson gave me, and headed out for Erewhon, the health food supermarket, across town. Observations from my excursion: construction sites are still all open and functioning, many not-even-cl... more »

The Coronavirus Is Not the Plague: The Plague Is US
The French-Algerian writer Albert Camus’ great 1947 novel, The Plague, is a warning to us today, but a warning in disguise. When he died sixty years ago at the young age of forty-six, he had already written The Stranger, The Fall, and The Plague, and had won the Nobel Prize for Literature.
Sunday morning music
I'm not feeling terribly musical this morning. It's been a long week, filled with bad news about the coronavirus pandemic and its effects. We'll muddle through it, and come out the other side, but it's going to leave long-lasting disruption and changes in its wake. I'll let Harve Presnell sum it up with his famous song from the musical movie "Paint Your Wagon", long a favorite of mine. (A quick note: if the embedded video below won't play, it's because of the slowed-down streaming speeds implemented by many service providers, to allow for more home-based Internet traffic during... more »

Stuck at Home, Americans Turn to Foster Pets for Companionship
“One of the reasons we found that people are unable to adopt pets in New York City is because they are never home,” the spokeswoman, Katy Hansen, said. “They say it is not fair to the animal, or they are not able to spend enough time with them.” But as the global coronavirus outbreak has people preparing to spend more time at home over the coming weeks, some who have decided that they don’t want to quarantine alone are choosing to foster a pet for companionship. Most Americans are being told to stay out of bars and restaurants, to steer clear of social gatherings, to work from ho... more »
Virus Affects Almost Half of Bolsonaro’s Delegation to Trump’s Florida Resort
RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL - When the Brazilian Air Force (FAB) plane took off from Brasília bound for Florida (USA) on the morning of March 7th, the risk of contamination by the novel coronavirus was not a concern for President Jair Bolsonaro and his delegation.

Could The P-8 Poseidon Be The Bomber The Navy Has Always Wanted?
*Sebastien Roblin* *Americas, * The new anti-shipping mission is less about targeting airplanes and more the missiles it carries, allowing bombers to strike at ships bristling with air defense missiles without entering their reach. *Key point:* Ship-hunting bombers are all the rage. The highest-stake geopolitical clash taking place today is for control of the waters of the Asia-Pacific. Will China assert de facto dominion over large expanses of those waters thanks to its growing military power, and thus be positioned to dictate terms to states like Japan, Vietnam, and Australia?... more »
China's First Nuclear Submarine Was A Total Disaster
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, Asia* While China’s first ballistic-missile submarine was meant to be a real, operational submarine and part of China’s nuclear deterrent, the obstacles encountered during construction forced lower expectations. *Key point: *It has allegedly never sailed beyond Chinese waters. During the early 1980s, the People’s Republic of China attempted to modernize its nuclear deterrent force. One concrete results of the effort was the construction of a single nuclear ballistic missile submarine, a “boomer” in arms-control parlance. Constructed at enormous cost, th... more »
Can Lessons from the Great Recession Help Us Avoid a Coronavirus Depression?
*Ken Hou-Lin, Megan Neely* *Economics, World* [image: Reuters] Experts on income inequality discuss the past in relation to today. As the coronavirus continues to spread around the world, it is abundantly clear that the global economy is entering a recession – the first we’ve seen since 2008. Some officials have compared the last period of economic decline – also know as the Great Recession – to the Depression, which began in 1929. Yet it is clear that these two downturns differed not only in severity but also in the consequences they had for inequality in the United States. Th... more »
How to Protect Your Child from Coronavirus
*Emma Maynard* *Public Health, World* [image: Reuters] Here's what you need to do. The UK has become the latest country to close schools in a bid to slow down the spread of the novel coronavirus. This is a game changer for families, displacing children from friends, learning and their school community. To help them through what could be months of isolation and potentially lockdown, we need to consider how this new world looks and feels to them. Unfortunately we cannot just soothe the situation away and protect a little bubble of normality. The stakes are too high, and we need ch... more »
Why The Marine Corps Will Never Forget Lewis Burwell "Chesty" Puller
*Warfare History Network* *History, Americas* Surrounded, Chesty quipped, “Those poor bastards, they’ve got us just where we want them. We can shoot in every direction now.” *Key point:* The newspapers called it a miracle, and MacArthur said it was “one of the most successful strategic retreats in history, comparable with and markedly similar to Wellington’s great [Iberian] Peninsula withdrawal.” Crouched in their foxholes along Edson’s Ridge on Guadalcanal in the Solomon Islands, the Marines formed a critical but thin defense line between strategic Henderson Field and seasoned J... more »
Stop Touching Your Face Before You Contract the Coronavirus
*Stephen D. Benning, Brian Labus, Kimberly A. Barchard* *Health, Americas* [image: Reuters] Touching one’s face is natural, but it spreads germs. There are ways to stop. Public health officials consistently promote hand-washing as a way for people to protect themselves from the COVID-19 coronavirus. However, this virus can live on metal and plastic for days, so simply adjusting your eyeglasses with unwashed hands may be enough to infect yourself. Thus, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization have been telling people to stop touching their ... more »

Why Australia's Attack-Class Submarine Program Is in Trouble
*Hugh White* *Security, Asia* If the whole process runs on time, the first submarine won’t be in service until the mid-2030s. Australia’s strategic circumstances over the next few decades will mean we cannot afford to be without a submarine capability. But that’s an area in which we are terribly vulnerable. Serious concerns have been raised over both the ability of the future submarine program to produce the Attack-class boats and the time it will take to comprehensively upgrade the Royal Australian Navy’s Collins-class submarines so that we avoid a capability gap. It’s time to... more »
