... Words fail me to describe how evil that man behaved. I’m sorry and can only be glad that our daughters are increasingly less likely to share her suffering.

Agreed.

16 pregnancies, 5 daughter's, no sons and one abortion. I hope it's just bad math and not a lot of miscarriages due to beatings

Historically mystics were sources of wisdom and knowledge. They were the early religious scholars of their time

Talk to local hospitals or your local airport. Due to redundancy and emergency protocol, they often are replacing lightly used batteries on an annual or biannual basis. These will be industrial grade deep cycle batteries. Otherwise just wire up a bunch of golf cart batteries from Costco and call it a day.

Cars used to be a major menace... then you know what happened? Mandatory driver’s education and registration, in some cases even insurance. Deaths by car then dropped.

I don’t want to deal with repairs or maintenance. Renting lets me avoid that headache

The NRA doesn’t care about gun owners. It cares about gun manufacturers - if you institute common sense laws, then how will anyone buy their latest iteration of death dealing?

Or... have more women in service to offset their minority role, so as to make them less an easy of a target. If we continue to treat women as weaker by default, they will be always ready victims to aggressive males.

China is a ‘nothing market’? Hollywood has been pandering to China for years! Iron Man 3 has scenes added to it just so that it could be one of the limited Western releases it accepts.

Avoid your common moisturizers too, they will trap the heat in your skin - expect blistering pain after.

No, they don’t have it. In case you fail at reading - whole chunks, including art assets, are missing and would need to be redone.
