Taylor Swift was born on December 13, 1989, in Reading, Pennsylvania.[3] Her father, Scott Kingsley Swift, is a financial advisor, and her mother, Andrea Swift, is a homemaker who previously worked as a mutual fund marketing executive.[4][5] She has a younger brother named Austin.[6] Swift spent the early years of her life on a Christmas tree farm in Cumru Township, Pennsylvania.[7][8] She attended preschool and kindergarten at the Alvernia Montessori School, run by Franciscan nuns,[9] before moving to the Wyndcroft School.[10] The family then moved to a rented house in the suburban town of Wyomissing, Pennsylvania,[11] where she attended Wyomissing Area Junior/Senior High School.[12] Swift summered at her parents' oceanfront vacation home in Stone Harbor, New Jersey, describing it as the place "where most of my childhood memories were formed".[13]
However, while there is a lot of information about interference from Microwave ovens and WiFi, I could not find anything specifically about shipping or radar. Perusing information about the UHF band shows that two-way radio could be a source of interference, however most shipping uses VHF for ship-shore and ship-ship communication. The ISM band is the most likely cause of interference, however, again, I can't easily identify anything that would be used by regular commercial shipping.
Sorry, it's a useless post, can anyone else illuminate us?
"If you have $15k, and you decide to split it into two transactions, you have already broken the law independent of whether or not you follow through with the transactions."
Then it's a ridiculous law. Just my opinion, but frankly downright ridiculous.
It would be entirely reasonable for someone buying an "unlimited" plan to then stream a video feed (or multiple, bandwidth allowing) to a remote location for security reasons.
What? We aren't allowed to use the internet for interesting and beneficial things? All we're supposed to do is read Facebook and watch YouTube? Fuck that shit.
If you don't have 20 mins for the full presentation (second link) then start watching at 9:30 for the most relevant part.
Though I recommend the entire presentation, and really anything else from Hans, he's a great presenter with access and the ability to communicate some incredible statistics.
I didn't post my links to be a flamer: the topic, as you indicate, is truly fascinating.
It was first brought to my attention by a Swedish sociologist, Hans Rosling, with his presentation here but even better is this one.
In the second video he shows trends in infant mortality and it is a fascinating watch. The most alarming statistic is that while worldwide infant mortality trends against GDP, the USA is a clear outlier.
You are right, why this is the case is difficult to understand.
That link to the Guardian should not be brushed aside as an idle reference. The public inquiry into the Iraq war is as close to a thorough investigation into a modern democratic government as you will ever get. It took from 2009 to 2016 (17 years) to investigate and the report comprises 2.6 million words in 12 volumes. The inquiry had access to the intelligence services, the parliament and all records related to the Iraq invasion. They interviewed anyone they believed to be of interest.
In other words, it's a big deal, and if your local media is not reporting on this for whatever reason, then I advise you to appraise yourself of what it contains and what it's all about.
"You seem to have omitted a few important details, such as Saddam''s funding and support of terrorism, training terrorists, and providing them refuge in Iraq."
Got any facts on that?
I'm also surprised by the compete lack of interest in the USA regarding the Chilcot report. Is everyone in the US pretending that it has nothing to do with them? Why isn't Bush being grilled over misleading the people of the US and the UK? Blaire may end up in the Hague over this. Will the US just ignore it?
"fails ultimately because it does not respect the actual value of labor or goods and services."
As an interesting aside, a lot of pricing fails ultimately because it does not reflect the actual cost of production. Sure, there may be a trend there, but most products are priced according to what the market will sustain, not what it costs to produce.
Plus, and this is *always* overlooked, in the medical fields 90% of the people you around are sick as shit and die all the time. Can you imagine how crap that is?
There's a reason medicos marry other medicos, and it's not because they are elitist or "get" each other. It's because they are the only other people they interact with who aren't on their way to death. Sometimes "two feet and a heart beat" can be quite literal...
Good times. Nothing like getting a skip delivered to the front lawn to "move out" of a share house. Every single thing got junked and we just walked away....crazy.
Go one step further, make it even easier and open up some temporary slush folders on your website. Simple HTTP auth can be set to protect sensitive files. As easy as clicking a link. Manually delete within the week, or set a scheduled task/cron job to clean up any files more than a week old. Anyway, it's what we do.
However, how about the plural of "forum"? Here are some comments. So do we use "forums" or "fora". While the technically correct latin form is "fora" I just can't get my head around it, and prefer to say "forums".
My friend and I wanted to capture someone's password.
So we fired up.NET and Googled for a code snippet and used that to write a very simple little program that ran on Windows 7 and wrote key-presses to a file on the local HDD. Nothing fancy. The whole time I thought this would never work, since while our program was completely unknown to the AV software, surely the API hook and overall pattern (as you mention above) would be trivial to detect.
Our program worked perfectly and was never detected by any of the anti virus programs we tested it against.
We got the password.
The experience really scared the crap out of me, and since then I've been exceedingly paranoid about trusting sources of software more than AV.
Sure, but that's the thing: no one knows anything about whether the UK will be able to negotiate better deals for itself.
I don't think it will.
You think it will.
Of course I *want* it to do well for itself, please don't conflate my opinion with any nefarious desire to see the people of the UK suffer. I just can't see how anyone can really promise anything at this point....interesting times ahead.

Well said.

Man we're off topic now:

This is quite good.

"If you can't fill it out or you lie on it then you can find yourself in real trouble."
And everyone just accepts this as OK?
Why should the bank know any more about me or my life than they already do?
I don't buy "preventing money laundering" as some kind of justified objective. In my mind, it's not.

But why does the USA let babies die?

"The quality of care that is _available_ in the US is the highest in the world."
I'd love to see some more detailed information about this, including some references if possible, thanks.
*7 years...of course. Oops!
BTW my American friends:

Actually I thought the post deserved to be in bold. Nice one.
Sorry, I missed out the slavery link. Not hard to find either...
Ha ha, that's rich.
Consider the USA very carefully:
You have killings.
Mobs.
Torture.
Unsafe water.
Corruption.
And at least one of your presidential nominees is a Total Nutjob!
So what's wrong with India exactly?

Sorry to nitpick, but I think the plural of "virus" is "viruses".
There is no logic to this. Very broadly, in English the plural form often comes from the etymology of the original root, be it either latin or greek.
There's a good rant here about this.
However, how about the plural of "forum"? Here are some comments. So do we use "forums" or "fora". While the technically correct latin form is "fora" I just can't get my head around it, and prefer to say "forums".
Anyway, off topic, sorry...

Sure, the UK can now ask for *exactly* what it wants.
But the other parties don't have to do shit about it.
The UK by itself is a weaker entity than when it was a part of the EU. To think otherwise is delusional.
