Mostly we're motivated to control ourselves in public. Mostly. At home the motivation is much less clear. At home there's a bit of a lab for bad behavior. You can test things out without terrible consequences. Or maybe the consequences are there, but they are deferred, buried, much harder to detect.
Like any good spy novel, the Cox Report alleges that Chinese spies penetrated four U. S. weapons research labs and stole important information on seven nuclear warhead designs.
Would I rather the research lab that tests animals is reduced to a bunch of cinders? Yes.
Oh, I've seen copies [of Linux Journal] around the terminal room at The Labs.
When I hear of anyone walking into a lab and walking out with animals, my heart sings.
A new study shows that American students are becoming less proficient in science, and if the trend continues, we will become a nation that's science and chemistry illiterate. And you thought a lot of meth labs are blowing up now?
You can't regulate every lab in the world.
What I found, over four years of research and reporting, was a conscious effort — taking place in labs and marketing meetings and grocery-store aisles — to get people hooked on foods that are convenient and inexpensive.
Since 1998, the Administration has begun to upgrade counterintelligence and security at U. S. weapons labs.
I've had investigations of my lab because people didn't like what I had to say. And when you have investigations and you're doing research, you're shut down for a while. You have to start all over again. So that's one area where I paid a high price.
My father worked at the Naval Ordnance Lab, and they had a nine-hole course on the property. You paid a quarter.
Scientific prayer makes God a celestial lab rat, leading to bad science and worse religion.
She had been living like a hermit herself, in a cramped, seedy apartment in Somerville, spending long hours in the lab. All-nighters had become a regular thing. She didn't have any close friends, didn't go out on dates, didn't even go to the movies by herself. She had sacrificed a normal life in order to get a PhD, and become a scientist.
It's then that I realize: Of course Tris would go into the Weapons Lab instead of Caleb. Of course she would.
No more turning a blind eye to Chinese spies in our nuclear labs. No more keeping silent about Chinese slave labor camps.
It was at Bell Labs that I first made direct contact with real semiconductor experts and thus began to fully understand what amazing materials they were and what they could do.
That's what the Nazis did, isn't it? Treated those "others" they thought subhuman by making them lab subjects and so on. Even the Nazis didn't eat the objects of their derision.
