2020 Kia Soul review
"The 2020 Kia Soul doesn't stray far away from its winning formula: a boxy front-wheel-drive crossover SUV with inspired styling and a great price. ...
The top-spec GT-Line model comes with a 201-hp turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder and a seven-speed automatic transmission" https://www.caranddriver.com/kia/soul
"2020 Kia Soul Costs More Than Before, Remains Good Value -
Once again, we recommend avoiding the optional turbocharged engine, which is quite expensive."

Fully Integrate America’s Naval Force
There are some interesting ideas here:
"A truly integrated naval service should have a single headquarters to provide common fiscal, acquisition, and technology policy and support to the operating forces"
" The Commandant of the Marine Corps, with added responsibility for overseeing and managing naval special warfare, riverine forces, and inshore supporting capabilities, would be the leader of the naval amphibious forces component. This structure would give the Marine Corps significantly more firepower in the maritime domain with far less administrative tail."
