Just to be clear, they aren't the first to look at Mn-doped ZnO as a spintronic material - people have been working on this material since the 1990s. Theoretical work by researchers at Tohoku University in Japan and others predicted that Md-doped ZnO could work at room temperature. After which, Others started work investigating the properties, and trying to improve the fabrication of the material to reach ferromagentism at higher temperatures.
Depletion of the ozone layer is a separate issue to global warming. Tropospheric ozone, on the other hand, is related to global warming, in that it is one of the list of greenhouse gases.
Freezing the mouse is easy. Getting it to go for a walk after you've defrosted it is a little more problematical. I think they'd want to see it move before they'd give you the money.

So what's the worse things that's going to happen? A dead lab rat?
They might take your budget away for showing that you didn't really have a clue about biology? They aren't a magic wand. Take stem cell treatment for hearts for example - you have to have highly specific growth conditions in the laboratory culturure dishes to coax stem cells into developing as vascular cells. They're not just going to have a look round and think 'when in the heart, do as the heart cells do'.
Caesium in the UK, Cesium in the US. Casium in German. Cesium in French. Cesio in Italian and Spanish. Cesio in Portugese.
Originally, the ae was that single symbol which is now so rarely used that Slashdot won't let me use it. But it was named after the latin word 'caesius', which meant bluish-grey.
Those taxes aren't sneaked in. Those taxes are raised with the full understanding of the Scandinavian voters, who are more interested in getting good public services than they are in low taxes.
However, there are plenty of political parties outside of Scandinavia that compete with each other in 'we lowered taxes!' while actually sneaking them in again in some other way.
Of course, you're still due to pay the various states sales taxes. But it stops various states from trying to sneak in taxes raises when people aren't looking.
> we could develop a plant that converted empty XXXX (local QLD beer) cans into usable power
It would finally give a reason for XXXX to exist. Unless the stuff you export to the UK is some sort of revenge tactic. 'I got it, Bruce! We'll put kangaroo piss in XXXX cans and send it to England! Those poms will never spot the difference...'
You attack the author for lack of knowledge, yet it appears you haven't heard of Isodor Isaac Rabi.
Prof. I.I.Rabi worked with Niels Bohr, Wolgang Pauli at Hamburg and Zurich, and Werner Heisenberg. He won the 1944 Nobel Prize for work on the magnetic properties of atomic nuclei. It was Rabi who declared
"He's a danger to all that is important. I really do think it would have been a better world without Teller".
As an example using the 70 years after death laws - Elgar's Pomp and Circumstance marches (including the piece that is 'Land of Hope and Glory' to the Brits, or 'that music they play during graduation' to the Yanks) would be coming out of copyright next year. Fortunately, he didn't do it for hire, or the US would have had to wait until 2029!
But the Star Spangled Banner would have been out of copyright since 1913. You'd have been allowed to hum it seven years earlier, but you'd have to swear you were humming 'To Anachreon in Heaven'

It's a good job I understand it - I'm paid to do research on dilute magnetic semiconductors...

Actually, spintronics are one route to get to quantum computers.
Ahem. I meant Mn-doped.
Md-doped means Manganese doped, not Manganite. Manganese is an element, Manganite is a mineral, MnO(OH).

Nah. I've got gas central heating.
Sharks with frickin' laser beams on their heads?
Maybe we could make leaving the planet a requirement for treatment. Anyone for a Mars colony?
It's not exploding in Europe, or Japan. There's even one political party in the UK calling on people to have more babies.

Well, you've got to start from somewhere...

So you can't copy a plot anymore? Oh well, Hollywood can forget about any British releases of their films.
HELLO? I'M IN THE POOL!
On the plus side, it'll be easier to drown them...
But then where would you get all your doctoral students and postdocs from?

Umm. Hard drives need magnetic material to store the data. How magnetic is diamond?

Plead insanity of course...
