In a three-month period last year, two Brooklynites had to be cut out of their apartments and carried to hospital on stretchers designed for transporting small whales. The National Association to Advance Fat Acceptance (NAAFA) argues that it was not their combined 900kg bulk that made them ill. Obesity, according to NAAFA, is not bad for you. And, even if it was, there is nothing to be done about it, because genes dictate weight. Attempting to eat less merely slows metabolism, having people as chubby as ever.

The advice came too late for Harry Stonecipher. The boss of Boeing was forced to resign last weekend—for reasons that will strike many outsiders as absurd—after his board were told of an affair that the 68-year-old married man had been conducting with a female employee "who did not report directly to him",

The couple were said to have first got together at Boeing’s annual retreat at Palm Desert, California in January. After that much of the affair must have been conducted from a distance: Mr. Stonecipher’s office is at Boeing’s headquarters in Chicago; Ms Peabody runs the firm’s government-relations office in Washington, DC.

Last month the U.S. Army, bumped favored defense contractor
L-3 Communications from a $ 4.6 billion contract to provide translators and
interpreters in Iraq. A new venture called Global Linguistic Solutions (GLS),
headed by retired Army Major General James (Spider) Marks and primarily formed
to bid on the contract, landed the job. The surprise caused L-3 shares to fall
nearly 6%; the company lowered its sales forecast this year by $ 500

Linguist… Ability to deal unobtrusively with the local populace… Must be able to
live in a harsh environment." The pay isn’t mentioned, but L-3 recently offered
