That's a bit of an own-goal. Now all the gay people of Minnesota will know just whom they have to thank.
I remember a comment I heard about the bible which really struck a chord with me. How fortuitous it was that God chose to become incarnate among the barely literate peasants in Roman Palestine rather...
This doesn't seem true because the Djinn are present in Arabic folklore long before the time of Islam. They were adapted into Islamic theology, rather than created by it, because their presence was...
When telephones were first invented, everybody said it would kill the art of letter-writing. They were probably right, too.
Scotland has a 'Not Proven' verdict as a third option. That could well have been the decision of the jury here, had they that option.

Manslaughter is an unlawful killing with less culpability than murder. For example, severe mental illness impeding rational thought will disqualify an unlawful killing as murder and reduce it to...
As Goldie said, both the prosecution and the defence accepted the jurors, so we cannot say that any arrangement of possible jurors, including grey aliens, is the same. These were accepted jurors,...
The verdict was "just" in that the prosecution could not prove (beyond a reasonable doubt) Zimmerman acted other than in self defence.
That doesn't mean he did act in self defence, just that the...

It is surely a consequence of enforced "harmony", that is, homogeneity; when countries like Romania, which have much more lax standards of hygeine and accountability, are treated with the same degree...
Haha, this is brilliant, Mod, in many ways. As a fellow Aquarian, perhaps I ought to try some radium-containing water, though maybe a little less than the Curies :D
If there's any relationship at all, it's the other way around: people don't mind putting in the effort to mine it because it is held to be precious. It's the same with oil, which is precious because...
i had to look a bit deeper into this.
first i thought of my ferrets...
maybe not of great monetary value, but to me they are precious.
(they are one offs. you cant get my ferrets anywhere...
In isolation, everything is worthless. Worth is in the general and literal sense a value judgement, and as such requires both a valued thing and valuer (which may be the same). Things valued for...
Greer? Really? I hope when he's dissecting the body he doesn't slip and ruin his last remaining shred of credibility.
After how many goose chases, people think it sounds fun when he offers a...
Oh please, that woman looks nothing like Kerry Cassidy. I could trall the net and find somebody who looks like me and claim it's proof I've been cloned as part of my work with, oh, I don't know, the...
