Aquitaine

It is Haruko, the antagonist of FLCL.

The previous one was Lightning, the protagonist of the Final Fantasy 13 series.

Hello Paul,
I am a GP now indeed, but it seems that it's my fate to live in a country that is full of corruption and oppression. I am sorry, I am in my worst condition now...the great Egyptians are celebrating a military coup now. All the faces of Mubarak regime are back and the criminals who killed the people are well and good. The 25th Jan revolution was a delusion.

Yes. When Roe vs Wade was first established as the Constitutional interpretation of what was legal and medically ethical, docs back then were still measuring fetal development in trimesters. They at first said the limit was the end of the second trimester. Once technology began to help determine development of the fetus with better monitoring, and with the technological development of NICU equipment and techniques of ensuring the life of pre-term newborns, the age of viability has adjusted accordingly.

We now measure viability in weeks rather than in trimesters since 1973, and fetal viability has been determined roughly a few weeks earlier than before given technological advancement. It still is not a distinct hard line of "Fetus" one day and "Baby" the next (because just like us born-folk, every fetus develops at different rates).

Technological advances are sure to continue to develop, and medical ethics will - again - adjust accordingly. Hope that helps.

Can you tell I have kids? I figure, they always announce it, why can't I?

Hi Paul!

Sang'ha referred to the Buddhist community, and I originally intended to have the "Sang'ha" part of my username refer to the entirety of what I consider a spiritual community here. Which is everybody.

Mystic refers to my fascination to the esoteric side of all religious and spiritual study, since I tend to shun most things orthodox.

So I wanted my name to mean I see and I seek within the more mystical and esoteric side of the group here without exclusively seeing only the mystical and esoteric parts of RF.

Hope that made some sense.

Thanx for the friendly invite!

thanks for the fubal
