The Girlboss Is Dead. Long Live the Girlboss.
Bah already. The Boss has always been an oddity while necessary in order to facilitate decision making. Often as not it is the owner whose failures become very personal. The idea of the free agent CEO is a recent phenom though. That person lives and dies on reputation. The advent of many women into the executive has produced plenty of female bosses. This has been a good experience generally but still with the same old problem caused by real power. As we see there are remedies and they are applied.

When F-4 Phantoms Attacked American and Australian Warships
*Robert Farley* *Vietnam War, Asia* The friendly fire incident off the coast of Vietnam did relatively minor damage with one fatality. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *On June 17, 1968, U.S. fighter jets apparently launched air-to-air missiles that struck a U.S. Navy heavy cruiser and a Royal Australian Navy guided-missile destroyer.

*Caleb Larson* *Guns, Americas* The iconic M1911 design is still manufactured by Colt 100 years later. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *Despite no longer enjoying the widespread success that it once did as the United States’ standard-issue service pistol, the iconic M1911 design is still manufactured by Colt, as well as by a number of other firearm manufacturers in the United States and elsewhere abroad—not too bad for a pistol originally designed at the beginning of the last century.

International Sanctions Can’t Stop North Korean Weapons Proliferation
*Mark Episkopos* *Nuclear Weapons, North Korea* The international sanctions regime has proven largely toothless, if not counterproductive, as a means of starving DPRK’s military-industrial complex. *Here's What You Need To Remember:* According to a 2019 UN report, North Korea has developed a sophisticated criminal network to continue selling arms through a diverse cast of proxies, front companies, and foreign middlemen. North Korea (DPRK) is sometimes described as an ‘autarky,’ or economically self-reliant state, but this label belies some of the core workings of the North Kore... read more
