The Anthurium Crystallinum Magnificum is a spectacular indoor plant, highly sought after for its exceptional foliage that combines unique textures and patterns. Its large, elongated heart-shaped leaves feature a velvety deep green surface, crossed by bright, lighter green crystalline veins, creating a striking contrast. This plant is a cross between Anthurium crystallinum and Anthurium magnificum, inheriting the best characteristics of its parents. It is considered a true botanical gem, adding a touch of natural elegance and rarity to any collection. Its care requires special attention, but the beauty of its foliage is well worth the effort.
Key Features
- Foliage: Large, velvety, elongated heart-shaped leaves, deep green with bright light green veins, giving a "crystalline" appearance.
- Habit: Upright, with large leaves that gracefully unfold, often more erect than the Anthurium 'King of Clarinervium'.
- Growth: Slow to moderate, may take time to reach its full size.
- Care: Demanding, requires high humidity, stable temperature, and good air circulation.
- Flowering: Rare indoors, typical Anthurium flowers, generally of no ornamental interest compared to the beauty of the foliage.
Care Tips
- Light: Bright indirect light is ideal. Avoid direct sunlight which can burn its precious leaves. A location near an east or west-facing window with a sheer curtain is often perfect.
- Watering: Keep the potting mix slightly moist at all times, never allowing it to dry out completely or become waterlogged. Use lukewarm, non-calcareous water for watering. Check the soil moisture by inserting your finger about two centimeters deep.
- Soil: A well-draining and airy mix is crucial. A high-quality orchid mix or a mix specifically designed for Anthuriums, enriched with perlite and pine bark, is often recommended.
- Humidity: Humidity is paramount for this tropical beauty. Aim for high ambient humidity (between 70% and 80%). The use of a humidifier is strongly advised, especially during dry months. You can also place the plant on a pebble tray with water or grow it in a greenhouse or grow cabinet.
- Temperature: Prefers warm temperatures, between 20°C and 30°C (68°F and 86°F). Avoid cold drafts and temperature fluctuations that can stress the plant.
- Fertilization: During the growing season (spring and summer), fertilize every two to four weeks with a balanced liquid fertilizer for indoor plants, diluted to half strength. Stop fertilizing in fall and winter when growth slows down.

Add this to every DoD Reading List!
Format: Kindle
There were so many great excerpts throughout the book that my highlights filled 16 pages in MS Word. This is a must read for all Pentagon personnel, those in operational commands, the acquisition community, and defense industry. Chris' insights as McCain's advisor were invaluable to understand the nuances and competing incentives of the DoD, industry, and Congressional perspectives.
"The problem is that America is playing a losing game. Over many decades we have built our military around small numbers of large, expensive, exquisite, heavily manned, and hard to replace platforms that struggle to close the kill chain as one battle network. China, meanwhile, has built large numbers of multi million dollar weapons to find and attack America’s small numbers of exponentially more expensive military platforms."
"It requires a sweeping redesign of the American military: from a military built around small numbers of large, expensive, exquisite, heavily manned, and hard to replace platforms to a military built around large numbers of smaller, lower cost, expendable, and highly autonomous machines."
"New technologies alone will not save us. We need new thinking — an ambitious effort to reimagine the ends, ways, and means of US military power, as well as the role of our allies in this effort — to succeed in a future world where America’s military superiority will likely erode further if China’s military technological development continues."

The Real Arms Race
Format: Kindle
I am a life-long Democrat, supposed to bristle at the very idea of military spending. Brose's book convinced me the problem is not how much we spend, but what we're spending it on. "Kill chain" is military-speak for the three phases of combat -- figuring out what's going on, deciding what to do about it, and taking effective action. Brose spells out how technology changed all three phases while the Defense Department and its minders in Congress weren't paying attention. The result has been to significantly undermine our military preparedness and, more importantly, the ultimate goal of deterrence. For all the money we're spending, Brose shows how it's mostly on the wrong things, i.e., large, expensive platforms that are only incremental improvements over prior systems designed for different times. He shows how the military-industrial complex, abetted by a Congress invested in the status quo, is arming our military with technology inferior to what you'd find in a modern automobile. The development of the Internet may have been kick-started by the defense department back in the 1960s, but the information revolution that followed largely left the U.S. military behind. Meanwhile, potential adversaries are compensating for relatively lower defense budgets by exploiting emerging technologies that could change the character of war, raising multiple ethical, geo-political, and governance issues. The Kill Chain is compelling, scary, and must-reading for our political leaders and all intelligent voters.

Well written and thought-out approach to change DoD acquisition
Format: Hardcover
I'm a Navy acquisition manager and former Navy officer. I very strongly recommend this book as required reading for Pentagon (especially flag officers and SESs), congressional staffs, defense contractors and those who would be defense contractors, Silicon Valley companies, and everyone who cares about the future of the United States. The author expertly characterizes the current world situation and the issues with DoD acquisition practices. He is not brutal about it, but fair. He explains the background and history behind how we got to where we are, and identifies a path forward. I believe that following the approach recommended is very hard, but very worth while. The author worked for Senator McCain for almost ten years, and it is clear that this book benefits from his experience.
My only gripe (and it is a minor one) is that very occasionally the author allows his feelings about Trump to manifest in a negative way. This is often justified, but it shouldn't be so one-sided. Nevertheless, this book is must-read, and deserves five stars.

Very Educational
Format: Paperback
I enjoyed the book. I wish the average American would take more of an interest in these kinds of issues facing the U S in the China sea region of the world.
