The plants available in the here and now are fine, nutritionally. The only thing that makes it even slightly hard to be vegan is that our society is geared toward supporting the preferences of omnivores. (Which is understandable since most people don't want to be vegan, but that doesn't make it untrue.)
I've been to Catholic services where the plate went around twice, once for the general fund, and once for some specific purpose of the week. And given that this is a thread about extreme longevity, I'll note that this was significantly after 1100 AD.
My flight needs would require a plane that would be absurdly cost prohibitive, i.e., back and forth from the Washington, D.C. area to the Eastern Caribbean. I know one can island hop, but that takes a lot of time.
And for the Spanish speakers, a friend in Miami tells me that down there people say that TSA stands for "Teatro de Seguridad en Aeropuertos" (Airport Security Theater).
Those in the judicial branch abandoned their role of guardians of individual liberty a long time ago. Separation of powers was an interesting experiment, but the results were negative. I wish it weren't so, but today's America is incontrovertible evidence for it.
I do this, and take the opportunity to tell the TSA guy that he really ought to do some Google searches for "terahertz radiation" if he's going to be exposed to it all day. So far all the guys I've said that too seemed interested, perhaps more so because I was actually friendly and not calling them sexual predators like most people seem to. If they won't stand next to those machines, those machines can't be there.
Really? You can tell a lot about me based on eight words I said on the Internet, only two of which were even mine? Wow! With your uncanny profiling skills do you make six or seven figures consulting for the feds, or something? Because that's pretty amazing!
The solution is not to award money for new books but to award money to pull a currently project gutenberg free public domain book up to current standards.
I'm an OER activist, and have considered this approach. The problem is that because the copyright regime ensures that PD works are so old, this usually ends up requiring just as much work as starting from zero.
Well, of course he meant American football. If he'd meant un-American football he wouldn't have referred to a "field", he'd have referred to a "pitch", or a "winkie", or whatever term y'all use for that sort of thing.

Why is this at -1? It's actually pretty funny if you get the Blade Runner reference.

Okay, now *that's* funny.

Wait, I thought it was the FBI that were the Female Body Inspectors?
Awesome! I'll get right on that.
As is typical with major releases of LibreOffice, there are significant new features making their debut in this version.
There's a Mozilla joke in there somewhere.

Wow. All rightey then.
I meant the 19th century, but it seems I've already been corrected. :-)
Aren't those ages just leftovers from an earlier era in which Americans expected teenagers to be mature enough to be independent?
Even better: Santorum surges from behind in Iowa
What do you mean? After the Moon, Mars is the next major astronomical body out, right? That means it's like halfway!
It's sad how much of the electorate underestimates the threat posed by those Atlantean bastards.
Illness and joblessness aren't covered by either program for working age people. So your straw man doesn't even support your own point.

Full blown Higgs signal.
Is that what you get right after you get a full frontal Higgs signal?

Yeah, and besides, heliocentrism is racist because it promotes the European "ideas" of Copernicus over the venerable African wisdom of Ptolemy!
It's February, so... maybe?
