Man, it's pretty sad looking at this list. I feel the world's just rocketing out of reach of understandability. My background's in education. I always wonder whether a solid bet would be on overhauling the system totally so t

They also could provide insurmountable opportunity. You'd have a huge advantage against enemies if you could develop some kind of mutualism with the beasts of nature. Imagine living on top of an elephant. I guess you would attend to it

With all the media attention, and various departments breathing down each other's necks and demanding checks, could we assume that the 737 is now the safest aircraft to fly in? Is there some type of model or theory which dictates that

Wow, that's such a long time. Different places have different rules, etc, and I don't want to criticise how Thailand functions, but this seems so excessive. A young person has just lost their life over a Facebook post. It's d

I currently "subscribe" to the Financial Times because I use Revolut Metal. I understand it has higher quality content than elsewhere, and enjoy reading articles from there now and again, but I never would've paid for it. I w

Seems points deductions are becoming more common in the game, and leagues are increasingly being decided by what happens off the pitch, rather than on it. I think it's also a very dangerous precedent to penalise clubs, and their standi

"That's another thing we've learned from your Nation," said Mein Herr, "map-making. But we've carried it much further than you. What do you consider the largest map that would be really useful?" "Abou
