And? Medical exemptions are not some sham to provide an "out" to the religious and personal exemption crowd. From the article:

"For kindergartners that year, Mississippi approved just 17 medical exemptions, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said. Neighboring Arkansas, which had about 3,100 fewer kindergarten students than Mississippi that year, recorded 24 medical exemptions."

This strikes me as honestly kids who might seriously have a condition that makes certain vaccinations dangerous. I mean 17 out of 45,000+ is a damn small number.

That's just among NJ politicians.

Wrong section. Article VI says: ...but no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States.

LightWorks is, and they have a free (as in beer) version. Not FOSS, but a professional NLE tool on Linux.

Beware! This heralds the return of the Great Old Ones! (Just in time for the U.S. 2016 election season it seems.)

Keep an eye out for Mi-Go.

Actually, I know several that are gun nuts and are pretty damn accurate with firearms. Mostly when aiming at defenseless, motionless, bloodless targets, but still...

Geeks and guns is a popular thing, at least in the U.S.

Shell and userland? What do you think it is, Emacs?

End it now. Pottering == Hitler and Systemd == Nazi Party. Just move on to the next story already.

LibreOffice Base seems to be what you're asking about.

Electric cars need neither a clutch nor transmission -- the most expensive piece of a car to repair.

My damn 2013 VW TDI manual just had the clutch die at 52,000 miles, so these things can vary in longevity.

Interesting. I enter "Mars, Ho!" and the top 5 responses are:

1. Mr. Mars Ho, the CEO of the Austar Group...
2. Mars Ho Facebook
3. Donny Interviews 30 Seconds to Mars - Ho Ho Show 2013...
4. Mars, Ho! - NASA Science

And the images related to it -- of which your book cover is the 2nd.

The 10th entry on the page is "Mars, Ho! by mcgrew (Hardcover) - Lulu"

That was searching from the search box on Firefox -- after switching it back to Google a few days ago.

Not sure what you're getting or why.

OTR is mentioned as one of those things they really can't crack if you dig through the whole Spiegel article.

$140k fully decked out.

Maybe our digestive ssytem has proven well adapted to that, but there are a lot of knives and cuts involved in the preparation of any meat.

Blood contamination while butchering is a very plausible transmission mechanism. Especially in areas where there are no enforced health guidelines, much less proper sanitization.

Have you read Twistor and Einstein's Bridge by John Cramer?

They are a couple of my favorites and I believe you'd probably enjoy them.
