Here’s some of what I’m reading up on this morning: 

• President Obama tells Jimmy Kimmel that the shooting of two police officers is criminal, and that the perpetrators should be arrested. 

• Obama also reads mean tweets about him.

• The Kremlin posts photos of a healthy looking Vladimir Putin following rumors of a serious health issue. 

• You can now "shoot fireballs at will", right from your hand. No, seriously. 

• Speaking of needless technological advances, PancakeBot prints any shape pancake you want. 

• Star Wars VIII is coming May 2017–not to be confused with a standalone Star Wars films that will be released next year titled "Rogue One."

• Teens who smoke pot are at risk for long-term memory loss. 

• There may be water–and life–on some of our neighboring planet’s moons.
