Looks like no baby change station in the men's room, I suspect the urinal is for him.

Men do not despise a thief if he steal to satisfy his soul when he is hungry.

Doesn't the bible say it's not stealing if you need food? Not very christian of the Memphis police. I guess we should be glad he wasn't beaten to death.

That is because they attended the NCAA tourney instead of the NIT during this era.
jamkoch t1_j96rb9m wrote
Just keep in mind that until the early to late 1960s, the NIT was the premier basketball tourney in the US which lead to a national champion, not the NCAA. Adolph Rupp, who couldn't get anywhere in the NIT created the spectacular of the NCAA and got his early wins by refusing to compete with other Basketball powers.

Racism really started in the northern states of the US after the end of slavery when former slaves moved north to take the plethora of jobs there. When the blacks moved into the cities, the whites moved out, leaving no real tax base. The whites have been trying to get rid of them ever since.

This is so parents can't be charged when their 6 yr old shoots the teacher. I'm wondering if their baptismal sponsors are responsible since they took the child's original sin at baptism.

In 2005, Planned Parenthood was contracted to do approx 60% of the federally funded HIV counseling and testing in Texas, targeting gay men. The reason, the LGBTQ community in Texas trusts Planned Parenthood more than any state or local county government office. Now, these tests are being contracted elsewhere due to the ban on funding Planned Parenthood. The state doesn't understand why nobody wants to test at local health departments. This ban affects so much more than women's health, and that is one of the primary reasons it's being targeted.

I wonder how many of those were suicides rather than true ODs.

Reply to Are there a lot more diseases for land animals than sea creatures? If yes, why? by Bored_Survivor
The reason is simple, we only support research on things that affect humans, land animals live among humans and thus are more likely to be able to transmit their diseases to humans. Humans don't live with sea creatures, they are less likely than chickens/roosters to affect humans. Money talks in research since the Reagan administration cut most of the basic research in the US. This is why you don't hear about diseases in sea creatures.

So women who have depression are more likely to also have depression after they give birth?

Reply to Researchers have found that having more babies reduces the risk of endometrial cancer. by IMBatUQ
This may be skewed since women who have more babies are also more likely to die in childbirth or carrying the child.

Austin's visitors have a bad reputation. People here for festivals and F1 really don't care about others' property. You also get the people puking from the UT games and worst of all, legislators.

That I'm Jewish because of my last name. Several Lutheran ministers turned in their graves with that comment.
Edit: Downvotes? for mentioning Jewish? Can we say, white supremacist?
