Vir putting the burn on Morden should be on the list.

"Emergency Induction Port."

this is one I actually used. I was five years old, playing with my cousins at my Babcia's house. She was making dinner and was a terrible cook. When she called us in for dinner, I told her I couldn't eat because I was sick. She asked what was wrong, and I told her it was prostate cancer.

The headline is highly misleading. This isn't about hacking YOUR DNA, it's about hacking someone else's DNA. Someone who isn't going to be asked about this. And even when we might decide that for serious medical conditions, it is perfectly ok to substitute the future guardian as responsible for consent, without…

"Across the Hudson and over Newark Bay, about 15 miles from Manhattan, a group of investors led by Goldman Sachs"

This research shows that at least…

No no. He's a Randian. Therefore he's an "I" doctor.

Only 180 tons for 120+ meters? A naval ship of that size weighs around 4000 tons.

I'm sure all these well-meaning parents have done their "research"

This is Texas. Federal laws are for other states.

I surely know who to thank for the bounty I eat. Sad how appropriate this is.

I think Disney made the best FF movie when they made The Incredibles.
