Well, if someone were seriously considering a sex change, I would hope they'd look for the best doctor available. It doesn't seem like something you should trust to some bargain basement discount physician you found on Craigslist.
I dunno, I've got some pretty good reviews on yelp. Come in for some new junk and I'll do your kidneys for free. Now if you'll excuse me I have a client coming and need to fill a seedy motel bath tub full of ice.
I wouldn't be surprised if the research is really only concentrated in two areas:
1) Missile defense technologies to counter NK
2) Navel defense technologies to counter China
Though realistically the second I don't really see as a "counter" so much as it is to apply pressure and to posture over territorial claims.
Nah, giant fucking mechs or nothing. It's the Japanese destiny.
You are the one who made the ridiculous assertion that one cannot identify a legitimate medical device.
I have to agree with mark-t. There's nothing ridiculous about it at all. Professors aren't automatically experts in what legitimate medical devices look like.
Which is why they are made aware in advance. Say you have a big box sticking to the back of your head that, I dunno, keeps your brain from gushing out your ears, you have an exam and are worried it might be confused for a cheating device. If the exam isn't being held at a familiar place where staff are aware of your condition anyway would you not get in touch in advance and say, yo, I have this big box on my head, it's for this, this is what it does and here is something from my doctor saying how it's critical and cant be removed even for two hours.
Disallowing people equipped with electronics for legitimate health reasons, some of which may not even be removable without surgery, would be such a huge contravention of human rights that any institution which tried to practice it would be sued into bankruptcy if they did as you suggest.
This notion is so self-evident that I can only conclude you must be trying to troll.
Here's the ideal solution. You apply a bit of common sense. You don't take all electronics to include literally all electronics. If someone has a critical bit of kit they need to stay alive then the examiners should already be well aware of that in advance. Obviously it doesn't include pacemakers and other things while technically electronic are basically a part of your body. Hurr hurr wut if dis guy haz da elektrik hand....Nothing with a screen, no phones, watches no speaking slide rules, nothing you can interact with. Special cases will be made for legitimate medical conditions.
They're hardly discrete. if they just looked like a regular watch then that would be ok. But it seems like anyone wanting to use one has probably already missed the boat.
A character is a well defined literary concept. A car only becomes a character if it has the qualities of an intelligent entity. For example, KITT in Knight rider. In this context, the Batmobile may qualify for trademark protection but not copyright. I think we have an issue with legal fiction being too disconnected from reality to the point of legal delusion.
But is that really the case, or was Google+'s main obstacle just that Facebook already existed and was spectacularly successful?
I think this. Everyone's already on fb, why they they all move over to g+ when it the same thing except no one is on it. Few people want to double up on all their posts etc so everyone just stays put. If they want to succeed they have to offer something different to compel people to switch. And that apparently isn't unification of all the google services, people didn't seem to like that for one reason or another.
Umm....maybe this isn't obvious to everyone, but to me it's clearly a bad idea to publish publicly on the internet a perfect covert entrance to a nuclear power plant.
Where do you think he got those images from? Drew them himself?
And... err... Chewbacca lives on the planet Endor...
Chewbacca lives on Endor? Does he have a thing for the furry little Ewoks, or are they just food? Next you'll be telling us that Jar-Jar Binks is a Sith Lord!
Oh wait, perhaps he actually was meant to be that, but Lucas backed off because of the vitriol towards Binks. More info in link.
Even an interesting secondary thread on the name Bink name possibly referencing a Piers Anthony character.
That does not make sense! Why would Chewbaca, an 8ft tall Wookie from the planet Kashyyk wand to live on Endor with a bunch of 2ft tall fucking Ewoks? If Chewbaca lives on Endor you must acquit!
The paper speculated that any attack on NK would result in a bombardment of any and all populated areas in SK. Since a large portion of the population lives within artillery range the result of such bombardment would be very deadly. In the time it would take to destroy those artillery pieces about 2/3rds of the SK population would be dead or homeless.
Is that not assuming all, or at least 2/3rd of the population live within range (20-30km) of the artillery which is definitely not the case. And that's if they're literally on the border, any recession into NK territory would reduce the effective range further. Going by this map you've got maybe 3 or 4 places big enough to be marked within range. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geography_of_South_Korea#/media/File:Korea_south_map_-_Valentim.png). That probably also assumes the population would take no measures to escape the range of the artillery.
I already answered that question before.
In the case of ISIS, we KNOW how that began so it's not a even hypothetical question.
Furthermore, maybe if people were willing to trace the origins of these kinds of things, then we wouldn't be in these messes and making the same mistakes.
I'll answer the first part in the other reply.
And so what? The grown person makes their own decisions. But the parents ALSO made their own decision to have a kid and raise it to choose the wrong choices. There is no magical decree that responsibility can only lie with one party. That would be silly.
What about the parents of the parents who raised their children to raise children who grow up to commit heinous crimes? How far back are you going to take it. The sins of the man fall at his own feet, not his fathers.
Well assuming we can encode 6.6 bits in a players 2 digit shirt number, 1 bit in his side, 2 bits in the players skin color, 2 in his hair color, 3 in his hairstyle, 1 bit for presence or absence of underwear and rely on him to remember a number between 0 and 1023 we can encode 563.2 bits per 22 players.
So somewhere in the region of 218.5 billion football fields.

Lets not forget that Eve started this whole thing when she ate that apple.
Only because a snake (suspiciously shaped like a penis) told her to :O
Are you referring to expertsexchange?

SEOs hate this one weird trick.

In my day it was an automatic fail. Same for plagiarism.
There's software to detect that too. How on earth are people going to get degrees anymore?

I think you hugely underestimate how motivated people are to cheat and the lengths they will go to to get ahead.
Everything up to actually studying apparently.

Phantastic!

Batman has no character either yet he's fine?

There's God the Father, God the Sun, and God the Holy Ghost
So, it's basically, God, Ra, and God again? :-P
I dunno if he made a typo but Jesus is actually the Sun and may as well be Ra.

I heard it has plans for a robot t rex army! Can we risk Isis getting this? There's only one way to be sure.
What happens in France matters in the rest of the world.
What was the last thing that happened in France that mattered in the rest of the world? Terrorist attacks don't count.
I'm just waiting for the long line of snooty Europeans to tell me that this proves that Europe cares about privacy, and Americans have no rights.
It does because reasons.

We got Boris Johnson.

You might as well blame it on cavemen.

Is that real math?
