It's worth mentioning that in Luke, the earliest Gospel, there was originally no mention of Jesus appearing to anyone after his death.. The women went to the tomb, found it empty, a man dressed in white announced that Jesus had risen, and the women went away, too afraid to tell anyone what they had seen.
And that's why this prosecutor is making the apology. Everyone knows that he had nothing to do with the original verdict and sentencing, so he looks noble and there is no one alive to actually take the blame.
They acknowledge that the system is flawed, but no one has to do anything about it.
YouTube has just notified me that my family subscription, which cost under USD $3/month because I used a VPN to buy it in Argentina, is about to be canceled, and I have to pay the local amount, about USD $17.
It was good for the 2 years or so while it lasted, but I'm done with YouTube. In any case, I was finding the videos being shoveled in my face were irritatingly uniform and clearly chosen to reinforce my prejudices rather than challenge them or even give me an even-handed selection.
And fuck, I am just tired of all the reaction videos and clickbait "content" by talentless hacks who are just trying to profit off of other people's creativity.
The best language learning system I've ever used is called Language Transfer, and it's completely free (supported by donations).
It focuses on getting you to use constructs and patterns that you already know in your own language and transferring those to the new language. That way you start off with a good vocabulary and basic grammar.
They have Spanish, as well as German, French, Greek, Turkish, Arabic, Swahili.
There is also an app, which is plain but extremely usable.
I don't know, I am more inclined to believe that they found a way to meet up and have sex, but they are trying to hide that so they don't get into trouble. Maybe the facility is going along with it, so they don't get into trouble either.
I don't think that Trump is anti-LGBTQ+. For that, he would need to have some kind of principles.
Fact is, all he cares about is what other people can do for him, and how much they massage his prostate with their tongues.
Likewise, he will screw over out heterosexual white male just as soon as he will screw over anyone else.
I've never heard of someone with a lot of money deciding that he had enough money.
It makes perfect sense to register at an emergency room and then leave, so you don't clog up the waiting room and get exposed to all the diseases that are there.
The issue, of course, is legal liability if someone comes into the emergency department and then is told to leave.
I've actually never heard of being called back by an emergency room. I very much have a sense that no thought at all is given to patients' time.
That's basically the attitude that the Mennonites have. I am not a mennonite, but I have been involved with many of them.
As I understand it, the view is that alcohol is not evil in itself, but the social damage that it does far outweighs any benefits. It just makes sense for the society not to have alcohol in it.
Or you have the experience that I had, just last night. I moved to Quebec one month ago. My Quebec Healthcare doesn't kick in until after 3 months, so I am unable to even make an appointment to see a doctor here.
My only option was to go to the local emergency department, so last night I did so. I have an issue that is not urgent, but is affecting me and has been going on for a while.
I arrived at the hospital and there were only two other people in the waiting room. I was optimistic, but after sitting there for 4 hours and seeing many other people brought in ahead of me, I realized that there was a good chance I was at the very end of the queue, with potentially no chance of seeing a doctor.
I gave up and went home. Even the Quebec health line suggested that I go back to Ontario if I needed to see a doctor before I had Quebec health coverage.
I've been a Linux user on and off since 1996, and there are still times when I give up trying to install software because of cryptic error messages.
Yes, I had my parents using Linux Mint for about 5 years, but eventually my brother who lived near them switched them to Windows because if there was a problem with Linux he couldn't help.
Don't worry, this is definitely the year of the Linux desktop.
Maybe normal compared to the president who tried to give her a shoulder massage.
My uncle was sent from Canada to South Korea in 1983, to help with their CANDU nuclear reactors.
He flew on Korean airlines flight 007, a week before that same flight was shot down by the Soviet Union.
Even more irritating is when they give you the option to opt out, but you have to select every company individually. So you either give up on the article or let them steal your life.
I didn't see any mention of Laotians being affected. Was this restricted only to tourists at a bar, or did only the tourist deaths matter for the new cycle?
About 7 years ago we had some very expensive consultants, hired by clueless management, do a presentation to our marketing team.
When that consultants declared that, "we see the future of the web centered on blockchain", the two of us who were developers shared a mystified and slightly horrified look.
Fortunately, the consultants went away after extracting their $200k and providing our director with some glossy reports. They did have a few useful suggestions that we implemented, but on the whole they were never mentioned again.
I got a Wii with the Wii Fit balance board for my dad to work on his balance and coordination as he aged. He never really got into it, but I think that could be an absolutely killer "game" for elderly people.
"Gay panic" was actually used as a defense.
I'm surprised his defence wasn't based on "gay panic".
