Your state broke? You could always tax rape victims for their abortions.

The tax sections do not include any exemptions for women who want an abortion after a sexual assault, to end a dangerous ectopic pregnancy or to remove the remains of a fetus following a miscarriage -- the latter of which is defined as an abortion under Kansas law.

A look at Japan's cities after last year's tsunami and how those cities looked in January. The last image is heartwarming despite all of the devastation.
Wow, that's really neat. I wonder how they kept the same angle like that.
EDIT: Upon closer examination, they are actually all a few inches off. Nevermind.
Wow - powerful. My friend lives in Sendai has he's been a major force in helping out the Chinese immigrants there. He owns a vintage/retro clothing store, and he basically donated all his clothing to the Chinese immigrants, who were left with no help from anyone. He also got a ton of business and people in the US (he's an ex-pat) to send lots of money, and he and his friends would load up their trucks and trailers with supplies and make deliveries to many of the immigrants. It was pretty cool to keep track of his status updates over the last year or so.
I think this is a case of medical language being mixed with layterms and causing legal manipulation. Technically speaking, all of those scenarios are abortions, but there are multiple categories. An abortion is defined as a premature stoppage of development and expulsion of a conceptus from the uterus before it is viable. A miscarriage is medically speaking a spontaneous abortion before the middle of the second trimester. When a nonmedical person uses the term "abortion", they are referring to a voluntary "induced abortion." At any pathology dept in the United States, a miscarriage will be billed as a type of spontaneous abortion. The legal system in Kansas must have manipulated the hospital codes to withhold tax breaks from ALL types of abortion -- involuntary and voluntary.Quote:
