By DAVID M. HALBFINGER
At a cost of roughly $25,000 in Pentagon research grants, 15 elite
scientists from across the country are being taught how to write and
sell screenplays.

Anything that has the potential to make careers in science more popular
is probably worth trying.

It is interesting that the military is worried about the shortage
of scientists in the US. Perhaps if they could influence the
President...?

I'm getting the feeling after the recess appointment of Bolton that the
current President is beyond being influenced. Perhaps somebody should fake
a visit from Jesus.

That's because Greenland is owned by Norway. Sending Bolton to Greenland is like
sending him to Tennessee. Which would be a much better fit for Bolton's diplomatic
skills anyway, methinks.

"It is necessary to the happiness of man that he be
mentally faithful to himself. Infidelity does not
consist in believing, or in disbelieving; it consists
in professing to believe what one does not believe. It
is impossible to calculate the moral mischief, if I may
so express it, that mental lying has produced in society.
When man has so far corrupted and prostituted the
chastity of his mind, as to subscribe his professional
belief to things he does not believe, he has prepared
himself for the commission of every other crime."

No. It used to be part of Denmark until it gained independence - when
it became the only country to leave the EU a few months later.

So far as I know, it has internal autonomy, but it still belongs to Denmark.
Hence the diplomatic tussle between Denmark and Canada of Hans Island, which
(so far as I understand Denmark's argument) is Danish because it's closer to
Greenland.

Those elephant seals are just down the coast in California. Don't
send him here! Surely we can take up a collection to send a bull
elephant seal to keep Bolton company, wherever he is. PETA will
probably object, though.

Don't worry, by the time Georgie gets finished America will have all the

study is memorizing pet phrases from some poorly translated book originally
