That’s certainly right. Martin-Green’s persuasion-through-the-door, her smile to herself afterward, and then her look of fatigued exasperation when Eugene brought a pill rather than a weapon are some great acting.

Offering to give some love to Uranus is often poorly received. Once you get past the initial resistance, though, things perk up.

Quite a headline. Seriously, learn the power of “Some.” Many veterans are quite appreciative of Trump having the widow there.

Yes, he did. The all court players with near perfect strokes seem to prefer those traditional racquets.

True. If you watch the clip closely, he only actually takes the ball on the rise on two shots - and one of them was defensive because the return came really deep. So only one time did he choose to hit the ball on the rise.

The racquets with small sweet spots tend to be simpler, old school designs. They bring better control, not more power.

Rae, I’m aching for a follow up piece:

Sonofabitch. Well, thanks for the heads up.

I hear you. As mentioned in my other responses, neither the OC’s nor my comment dispute the overall thrust of the data.

I’m a part owner of a space physics company. We count NASA/JPL/Goddard as clients. I also ran my point of view by a mathematical physicist who’s published about 100 papers. Not a scientist myself, but I’m not out of my element. Confident my comment is solid. Suggest you abandon the memes in favor of actual…

I donated to Axanar a couple years ago under the impression that it would be a more or less full length feature. The high quality casting (for a fan film) and effects bore that out. The settlement limitation really changes the project. Dammit.

“R.F.T.A.” was embarrassingly lame the first time you used it.

His position is relevant. It’s not a full rebuttal of climate change, but it is not intended to be.

What are we looking at here? Is that JFK’s funeral procession? What an interesting photo.

Putin has shown a clear disdain for President Obama, not just international norms. Putin has never “wanted to respect neighbors’ autonomy” ... but he didn’t annex and invade (especially on NATO’s doorstep) until the Obama Administration had proved weak. It’s not like Putin respected international norms more under…

“Their” rights? The indigenous Hawaiians are not a monolith, though. Half of them support the observatory project.

Thanks very much. They’re on my Amazon list now!

Well. This is pretty darn exciting!

How good is The Three-Body Problem, really? Since your screenname is TechnoCore, and I love the Hyperion Cantos, your opinion will carry some serious weight!

Being a male model is perhaps not the most dignified work to begin with. This ... is just the pits.
