As well as in many "civilized" countries of the West, where law enforcement is more concerned by not harming somebody than by going after people that actually harm other people.
Law enforcement is a sword, not a butter knife. You don't use sword to spread cream cheese on your slice of chiabata.
When a criminal is killed during criminal action, you, law enforcement should say, Alhamduli Allah, and wash your hands of any activities against the intended victim of such action.
Vista failed because it was worse than XP. W7 succeeded because it was better than Vista and XP.
Switch on a large scale between Linux desktops and Windows desktop is a giant step compared to imminent pressure in many organizations to make a choice between staying on W7 and switching to W8.
Wholeheartedly agree, except for the bacon part (I am a Muslim), but I think that a weight/knee relation is understated in current anti-weight propaganda. It's all about heart disease.
My heart is just fine with my 200 pounds, it's my knees that react strongly to the extra weight. For me it's either enjoy goat karahi or enjoy walking.
Every specialist in the field benefits from publications that advances that field. Circumcision is very light surgery, it's not a brain surgery. I doubt it contributes much to the income of urologists.
Nowadays there is an alarming trend of doing everything under general anesthesia, which of course makes it more expensive.
Given how fast "legalize" movement is spreading, it's both, thus forming a positive feedback loop resulting in aforementioned surge of the aforementioned movement.
The same argument applies to the probability of monkey typing complete text of Origin of Species by random. If you apply selective pressure on monkey to type exactly the character that is next is that profound religious document, then here you go: monkey typed The Origin of Species...
Yes, technically, you are right, since evolution is a broad term that includes both origin of species theory, from one side, and, mutation/adaptation/selection/inheritance set of factors, on the other side. Many people deny the first (Popper used to) and very few people deny the second. Second is used in technology, while first is not.
First is extrapolation of the second to the area we cannot verify experimentally on the same level of scientific robustness as we do in hard sciences.
I have a more revolutionary idea that just sparkled blindingly bright in my mind:
What if I say that any case that a person from the street cannot comprehend should not be a matter of litigation at all?
If the intricacies of alleged Samsung's patent infringement on Apple-owned patents are so complicated that a street person like me need hundreds of volumes of documents to look through, may be there should not be such case at all?
I feel actually great. I am religious, so I believe that my life does not end in this world and my soul is eternal. So less desires to see this world means less distractions in accomplishing "staff that matters":-)

Next time try Taliban or Al-Shabaab controlled territory. The rest of the world is bent over to their American overlords.
Why is important to keep species going extinct? Pandas, for example. Disappearance of 100 pandas from Chinese forests - will it break ecology?
This speaks for itself:

Bring me that comparison
Should we introduce species to new habitats? For example, should we introduce rabbits to Australia?
This side-effect should enter as an example in Wikipedia page for Schadenfreude

I don't. I have to restrict them, because my knees are very sensitive to even extra pound. It's the matter of limping or not, not a lifespan.
...so why does this matter?
At my work I do not care what desktop I am using, since I do all my development on a Linux server anyway.
It was not done in atheist Soviet Russia. Commies used the same arguments that /. uses against circumcision 70 years ago.
You are an idiot.
You mean, by urologists?

>How would such disputes be resolved?
They will be dismissed.
Given how fast "legalize" movement is spreading, it's both, thus forming a positive feedback loop resulting in aforementioned surge of the aforementioned movement.
The phrase "grisly science" have never had so many meanings
>Science does not deal in Truth. It deals in the best explanation that fits the evidence.
This definition omits the definition of when we stop explaining and just say: "we don't know".

You have an unknown factor here, which is the probabilities involved.
It's funny how your perfectly logical and reasonable argument got labeled as Troll by some trigger-happy moron atheist.

you know what else protects your soldiers? Keeping long crooked American nose out of business of other nations.
I read several replies and I think that may be there is a misunderstanding of how high you set the bar for "interesting".
