Do you want to know how popular school vouchers are? They have never won on a ballot. Not once. In any state. Ever. The only way states are able pass a school voucher scheme is behind closed doors. Legislatively. The people would never approve their tax dollars going to private religious schools.

[July 22nd, 1986] In 1985, forcible rape increased by 4 percent in the United States. Some experts claim women invite such attacks through their behavior or dress. In one case, a Wisconsin judge gave a man probation for raping a teenager, concluding the crime was a normal reaction to her clothing.

do you know how stupid you have to be to get community noted with a link to project gutenberg

Matt Walsh
@MattWalshBlog
Nolan's obsessions with the non-linear storytelling gimmick really hurts this film. It jumps around so much, and spends so little time on any one particular moment or scene, that you never really feel like Odysseus is on an epic journey spanning many years. When he makes it home, you never feel like he's been gone for 20 years. The film does not capture the grandeur and scope of the original epic. That's why it feels rushed and too long simultaneously. The movie comes off like a rough draft. Nolan was searching for the actual story but never quite found it.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The Odyssey, the original work by Homer, is told non-linearly.

The Defense Minister of Israel says it was "blood libel" to go after Israeli soldiers caught on camera raping a Palestinian.

Tweet from Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz:
Justice has been done.

I welcome the decision of the Chief Military Prosecutor, Major General Itai Ofir, to close the Sde Teiman cases against IDF soldiers and to cancel the indictment against them.

This trial was born in sin by the previous Military Advocate General, using a blood libel against IDF soldiers and criminal investigation methods, and I am glad that justice has been done and the trial has been canceled.

The role of the IDF's legal system is to protect and safeguard IDF soldiers who engage heroically in war against cruel monsters, and not the rights of the terrorists of Hamas.

I am convinced that the decision will lead to a new path.
