From C. Lee, and they're back: Americans at high risk advised to wear masks as new Covid variant detected . This is a terrific read (and hopefully it's not paywalled for you): The Dark History Oppenheimer Didn't Show . Bizarre: We Got Our Hands on an HK G11, the Space-Age Rifle That Never Was . This is a double-edged sword in so many ways: We Fired the Army’s New Rifle and Machine Gun. It Was a Heavy-Metal Experience . An excellent visualization: Visualizing $156 Trillion in U.S. Assets, by Generation
I'm looking forward to the astonishing range of products in Japanese vending machines (hard pass on the horse meat, though): Japanese Vending Machine .
