<div>Despite the peril, Sanchez ignored the advice of his navigator and his second in command to add extra crew for the approach. The Fitzgerald was on his mind. Word had spread that some of its sailors had been working 100-hour weeks before the collision. Sanchez wanted his men to get an extra hour of rest before awakening to pilot through the strait itself.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Sailors remember a sharp, powerful blow that knocked them off their feet. The force of the collision locked the two ships together so that they lurched ahead, stuck to each other, for almost 10 minutes, before slowly separating.</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>Collision Course</div><div></div><div>Download File: https://t.co/TJLy3Ejkmr </div><div></div><div></div><div>A few weeks later, the Navy released its comprehensive review of the collisions in the 7th Fleet. Mentions of the IBNS were scattered throughout the document. Pieced together, with acronyms untangled, they offer a damning portrait of the system.</div><div></div><div></div><div>On November 27, the Space Weather Prediction Center at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) detected multiple Earth-facing CMEs blasting off from the surface of the Sun. Right now, massive chunks of charged plasma, sloughed off bits of the Sun itself, are racing toward us on a collision course, prompting NOAA to release a geomagnetic storm watch for November 30 through December 1.</div><div></div><div></div><div>But the prospects for sustaining this era of minimum deterrence appear increasingly shaky. The tripolar rivalry has not been locked in amber: Tellis describes strongly held beliefs among top security officials in China, India, and Pakistan that their nuclear postures are inadequate. Led by China and Pakistan, with India following in their wake, the three rivals are now on a course that will result in a dramatic expansion of their nuclear arsenals, even if Russia and the United States pursue substantial cuts to theirs.</div><div></div><div></div><div>To achieve its goals Poland needs to navigate carefully in Europe, be willing to compromise, and at the same time be tough when its vital interests are at stake. Poland needs skilful diplomacy, rather than irking its partners by single-mindedly and dogmatically attempting to preserve its ethnic and religious homogeneity in an era of globalisation and migration. Without such deft diplomacy Poland will end up on a collision course with other partners and institutions. And the odds of winning any battle with the EU are stacked against it.</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div> dd2b598166</div>
