💍 Taylor Swift is engaged!
Singer-songwriter extraordinaire Taylor Swift and her British actor boyfriend, Joe Alwyn, secretly got engaged a few months ago and shared the happy news with only their “inner-inner circle—basically immediate family, and trusted, very old friends.”
Swift, 32, and Alwyn, 31, have kept their relationship largely out of the public eye. In fact, Swift is apparently so eager to keep the engagement under wraps that she only wears her engagement ring at home.
A source familiar with the couple said the pair's relationship intensified during the Covid-19 pandemic as it resulted in them living together throughout the lockdowns.

‼️ Pentagon Reviewing Proposals From Firms to Develop New Weapons to Help Ukraine - Reports
The US Department of Defense is reviewing 1,300 proposals from 800 companies to develop new weapons and commercial capabilities that they may be able to produce in order to help Ukraine amid Russia's special military operation, CNN reported citing a US defense official.
The proposals include air defense, anti-armor, anti-tank, anti-personnel, coastal defense, drones, secure communications, and counter battery, which are all key needs Ukraine has identified, the report said on Thursday. The Pentagon is expected to decide on which proposals to pursue in the coming weeks, the report said. The United States intends to improve the capacity of the US industrial base in order to support Ukraine's needs should the conflict continue for a long time, the report said.
Earlier this year, US defense officials met with major US defense firms to discuss the capability of the US industrial base to support Ukraine's military needs should the conflict continue for a long time. Congress also approved a $40 billion package to provide assistance to Ukraine.

💧 Multiple errors at Red Hill poisoned Pearl Harbor water
On Thursday a Navy investigation revealed that shoddy management and human error caused fuel to leak into Pearl Harbor’s tap water last year, poisoning thousands of people and forcing military families to evacuate their homes for hotels.
The report listed a cascading series of mistakes from May 6, 2021, when operator error caused a pipe to rupture and 21,000 gallons of fuel to spill when fuel was being transferred between tanks. The report said the investigation revealed that poor training and supervision, ineffective leadership and an absence of ownership regarding operational safety also contributed to the incident.
Military medical teams examined some 6,000 people for nausea, headaches, rashes and other symptoms. The military moved about 4,000 mostly military families into hotels for months while they waited for their water to be safe again.
