#3 ...Slightly O/T, but I'm curious - does anyone know if Ambassador Bolton is aware of the regard in which he's held here at the 'Burg?

#4 U.N. investigators have uncovered rampant waste, said a confidential report presented to several governments Monday.
The only surprise is that the news became public.

Clearly the report wasn't intended to become public knowledge. I wonder who leaked it? The reporter, Colum Lynch, has been the U.N. correspondent for the Washington Post for a good many years now...

#6 What's Bolton's e-mail? He needs to see the picture if he hasn't.

Then again maybe it's his staff required screensaver.
