Last month, after I schemed to get my best friend together with her boyfriend, I ended up cuddled on the couch with his brother -- platonically, if platonic cuddling is even a thing. (I can attest that it's not. Well, at least it doesn't feel like it.) Not only that, but I agreed to keep doing it and to keep it a secret from everyone. At the time, I had no doubts it was a mistake. He and his girlfriend had broken up only days before, and I'd wanted him for a long time. But I did it anyway. Now here we are five weeks later. My head is on his lap, his fingers are sliding through my hair, and it's all I can do to keep myself from pulling his lips down to mine. I don't, because I know he doesn't want that. How do I know? He told me so when we started this. Plus, if he changed his mind, he'd let me know. The man is not one to hold back. But then again, neither am I. I'm known for speaking my ...

Drones, or unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), are changing the tactical landscape of warfare. The use of drones in conflicts has the potential to alter centuries of ground warfare in the same way as disruptive technologies like smokeless powder, the repeating firearm, tanks, and radios did in the past.
