I understand that the commutation of George Santos means he does not have to pay the court ordered restitution to the people he defrauded. Puts an even grosser spin on this incineration of the rule of law. Penalties within plea deals likely

This is an argument for a repair function that transforms a broken document into a well-formed one without loss but keeps the spec small, simple and consistent. It's not an argument for baking malformations into a complex messy spec.

You can get bluetooth keyboards on aliexpress for under £2. If dealing with that type of budget then scavenging is probably the better route especially as online payments may also be out of reach. In general, as a frugal person, buying &quo

Most of geopolitics is geography and Israel has greatly benefitted as a unique bridgehead in hostile territory for a changing roster of great-powers and states against another foe e.g. - Early Soviet support to undermine British Imperialism

I'm sure there will be examples and my childhood memories won't be great but that link isn't a good example of British recipes. Most of the instances of "cups" come from the "Edwardian recipes" which is a

No "cups" in old British recipes I've made but there will be measures you have to look up like a "gill". Old family recipes would just say things like "add flour" and that amount was taught face-to-face an

Sure but it's far from the exercise of an accepted power the OP refers to. In a constitutional crisis, titles of the elected and inherited ultimately become a matter of opinion... but opinion is the path to victory up to the point it d
