From TFA:The peculiar object effectively bridged the gap between a nova (a nuclear explosion on the surface of an old, compact star called a white dwarf) and a type Ia supernova (the destructive death of a white dwarf caused by a runaway nuclear reaction starting deep in the star). SN 2008ha likely was a failed supernova where the explosion was unable to destroy the entire star. âoeIf a normal supernova is a nuclear bomb, then SN 2008ha is a bunker buster,â said team leader Ryan Foley

Except that all new content is a remix of old stuff.
Real evidence as in true scotsmen?
(Wow, that analogy required some shoehorning.)

How much does God hate you to put you in a meteor strike, a plane crash, and a lost-at-sea drowning all in the same day?

In the contemporary world, "discrimination" is short hand for what was once known as "unjustified discrimination".

From the FA: The dentists likely had a sophisticated knowledge of tooth anatomy, Jiménez added. For example, they knew how to drill into teeth without hitting the pulp inside, he said.
