Japan, a country constitutionally bound to pacifism since World War II, is investing in its defense and contributing to regional security in ways that were previously unthinkable.

Tokyo is not moving away from its alliance with Washington or seeking strategic autonomy; instead, it is increasing the durability of…

Home › Boxing News › “I Don’t Know”: Dana White Isn’t Sure Fury-Joshua Will Happen as His Involvement Holds Up the Fight Dana White was supposed to be celebrating a night of boxing in London.

The Problem on the Pavement I arrived at the crash a few minutes behind another officer. His trauma kit was already open on the pavement. Gauze wrappers moved in the wind and caught against the edge of the road. Under the rotating emergency lights, he dug through the pouch, lifting one item after another and putting each one back as if the answer might be underneath it. The patient was nearby. The ambulance was still miles away. The officer was not panicked. He was not frozen. He was lost. The kit had been issued years earlier. He had trained with…

Peak season planning has traditionally centered on one question: how much freight do we need to move? This year, fleet leaders need to ask a second question: what will the weather do to our ability to move it safely? That question matters because the margin for error is getting smaller.

Less cushion. Higher costs when plans change. That is a…
