Convention Word Clouds

The words that speakers used at the two political conventions show the themes that the parties have highlighted. Republican speakers have talked about reform and character far more frequently than the Democrats. And Republicans were more likely to talk about businesses and taxes, while Democrats were more likely to mention jobs or the economy.

ATTENTION ALL RECRUITS
RE: DEXTERITY AND ATTENTIVENESS EVALUATION
IS NOW LIVE


Namaste.

I am pleased to announce the release of the third assessment in the Dharma Initiative’s Volunteer Recruitment Program is available at www.dharmawantsyou.com

This new test will assess your ability to negotiate a defined space while avoiding objects of increasing velocity.

With two tests now complete I have begun compiling individual Volunteer Assessment Dossiers for release at the end of the program. The results thus far are extremely encouraging. Indeed, they are far above expectations. I feel confident you will continue to produce excellent results in the coming weeks.

Sincerest congratulations to you all.

Namaste.

Ghostbusters 3?

Yesterday, Dan Aykroyd, while standing in what appeared to be a liquor store and wearing a T-shirt advertising tequila, told a reporter there were “two sharp young writers” working on a screenplay to relaunch the Ghostbusters franchise. And, astonishingly, it’s true! Last night, Variety confirmed that Lee Eisenberg and Gene Stupnitsky, co–executive producers on the most recent season of The Office, are writing a script “designed to bring back together the original cast of Harold Ramis, Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd and Ernie Hudson” in some capacity.
