@jon-nyc said in Woman with a choice bump.: @lufins-dad said in Woman with a choice bump.: I just have never understood this argument. It’s not “their bodies”… The fetus has it’s own unique genetic blueprint, separate and different that the mother. It’s not “your body” it’s a completely separate body inside another. Me neither, and I’m pro-choice. Though I would slightly change your formulation and say it’s not just their bodies. As time passes and science advances, " my body, my choice" is rapidly losing its effectiveness. As you have pointed out, genetics points out that the baby is a unique human in its own right. As such, it inherits those natural rights bestowed upon any other person. Secondly, the age of in vitro viability has wound its way down to around 22 weeks.

I didn't have any real power as the naked girl dancing around in his music video. I was nothing more than the hired mannequin You don’t say.

I am aware of a bank that had a software issue and disbursed a little over a billion dollars in payments. Fortunately it was to banking counterparties and institutional clients and every penny was returned next day.

Kate O’Brian, head of the news group for Scripps Network, told TheWrap ahead of the launch that “authenticity” is “part of the DNA” of the network: “Culturally, journalistically, professionally — we’re an authentic group.” If she was really authentic she would spell O'Brien correctly.

It's not that they are trying to injure another player but you have powerful 250 lb bodies flying around. In his prime, Ray Lewis generated about 1000 pounds of force when he hit you. Unprotected, that's bones. Welcome to the NFL... Link to video That's a lot of force to be focused on one tiny little knife... As the person on the receiving end found out...

@Jolly @jon-nyc That's not our Dakota, but close... As far as run of the house... If the burglar was female, you would probably be right, but a guy? Not a chance. We have to leash her if we have a workman in the house. She starts by tugging on their pantleg...

Acfually, that's getting close to poverty level.

Seems like it'll take a long time to clear out that backlog...

Weinstein is still convinced it's possible. Just sayin'.

We have foes at our house. The kitties have not quite come to terms yet, but yesterday was better than Saturday, and today is better still.

Nina lost her neutral perspective a long time ago

Clickbait article title, too.

His ex girlfriends probably think it sounds like him.

@george-k said in On the vent.: @jolly said in On the vent.: The only thing I found was severe trauma, upper chest. I would assume collapsed lung. Why the vent for that? Exactly. I could see it for a flail chest, but that would've been a HELL of a hit with multiple rib fractures. Sternal flail? Best I could find...Collapsed lung and sternal trauma... https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/32301126/louisiana-monroe-qb-rhett-rodriguez-son-long-coach-rich-rodriguez-home-hospital-stay

@mik said in Power gives you brain damage.: I think the effect of being in a leadership position too long though is true. One of several reasons I left the university.
