At best it was a compromise written hoping to get Republican votes so the Democrats could claim it to be bipartisan and not own it entirely when it blew up.
So true. I don't understand why this keeps coming up. Just because Who happens to have the regeneration plot device, which would make it possible for him to come back as a woman, doesn't really make the why of it any different than any other long-running series with a male lead.
The Doctor has a regenerative ability that lets him come back in a new body. The appropriate question is what compelling reason would the doctor have to come back in a female body rather than male? They're asking for a change for the sake of making a change and using a poor reason to suggest it.
I'm a big fan of sci-fi with female lead characters; Buffy, Lost Girl, the Underworld movies, Resident Evil.
A lot of people seem to think that Bo is the lead character in Lost Girl. They're wrong. Kenzi is the lead character.
And they call American imperialism bad. At least we just overthrow democratly elected governments we don't like. You Aussies are laying claim to a sovereign state.
70 of the nation wide amber alerts in 2004 were actual amber alerts. The rest did not meet all the criteria to be an amber alert. The majority of these were abductions by a parent or other family member where the child was not in danger. A number also included children that ran off.
So we're talking 25% of 70 or 17-18 a year where the child isn't killed within 3 hours of being abducted. There's also studies that have shown that amber alerts did not play a part in any of the instances where a child was recovered.
I don't like the headline. It's poorly written. When I saw it I thought that Japan had built the largest warship since WW2 (all nations). So I was expecting something huge. I was disappointed to find out it was the biggest warship that Japan built since WW2 and it isn't even larger than some of the things they built in WW2.

Which means this whole article is pointless. I thought there was something special about these keys that a regular locksmith couldn't duplicate them. Nope. Nothing special. So it's an "Oooo 3D printer" self fappitory story that Slashdot is so fond of posting.
Fucking 3D printers and Bitcoin. If an article discusses them, not matter how tangential they may be you can be guaranteed to see it on Slashdot. Heaven help us the day someone uses Bitcoins to buy a 3D printer.
That's a CYA policy. Parents have a nasty habit of making a ruckus if a school gives their kids anything they didn't agree to. It's probably a permission ship to be able to give iodine tablets to the students in the event of a meltdown. So even though those tablets would likely help keep the kids from getting thyroid cancer parents would bitch at the school for doing it without permission.
I think you should understand a little bit about vocabulary to understand the problem. "What", you may ask, "does vocabulary have anything to do with math and equations?" Well, first of all, equations are a very specialized form of vocabulary. A lot of formula are symbols which represent concepts. It's no different from a word. The context under which the word is used matters greatly in whether an individual becomes aware of a word which he or she does not understand. The word tectonic could be used to describe a smile in a fictional novel. Even though a read may not know what tectonic means it doesn't break the read out. On the other hand, if it were an article about tectonics, the word tectonic actually matters in the context and it becomes more visible to the reader that he doesn't understand the word however as the reader reads more and more articles about tectonics, even if he doesn't know what the word tectonic means, he will begin to not notice the words he doesn't know.
So with equations, every symbol has a meaning and if the reader doesn't know that meanting the equation is nothing but illegible rubbish. Unless the New York Times regularly wrote articles that contained equations the average reader of the NY Times would be confused and skip the article. With a paper, like the NY Times, they want to keep the vocabulary used in all the articles (of a given section) in line with each other and more or less in line with the publication as a whole.
So the answer to the question in the summary is "No". He would not have been better off.

So tell me. How do you really feel?

I think around 250 a year of which 75% don't meet the criteria for an amber alert.
Fortunately, no missing children have been found with assistance from amber alerts.

Custodial parent kidnappings aren't even supposed to permit an amber alert.
The Toyota Corolla is manufactured in California, just to add on to my post.
Which were probably manufactured in Mexico or the US.
Three supersized happy meals of plutonium?
It's not a "please investigate me" red flag. Encryption doesn't hide who talks to whom and that's the bigger red flag for further investigation.

They're already doing Sharknado 2.
Perhaps they could have a spinoff. Typh-orca.
Note the later clarifying sentence "Not the humans that regularly engage in water sports anyway."

These aren't the prey you're looking for.
Move along.

I'm an equal opportunity consumer. I HAVE NO SHAME.
Wickard vs Filburn is the case which basically started the bullshit interpretation of the Commerce Clause.
But I want to be in the party that eats any baby.
