You're not safe. Mine was seven digits and they "deleted" it a year ago. I had my name, my number, my uid, lots of identifying information, but my password was not working and the "send password" feature was not working. Their solution was to "get another number", nevermind all the contacts I'd made with the other number..
As someone who graduated with a BS in chemistry, let me just say that not all binary explosives need a blasting cap and that there was an explosion in one of the labs at my school because two chemicals were incorrectly disposed of in the same container by a student.
from a medical point of view you also have dis-advantage in working in a standing position. Mainly : the problem of venal blood return and venal stasis. In short : your feet swell because the heart has a hard time pumping the blood back up all this height.
On the contrary, your feet swell when you are sitting for long hours. Ask anyone who spends lots of time sitting on an airplane. Walking actually *AIDS* the blood moving back up toward the heart through the muscles squeezing the veins and the valves preventing back-flow. But if you are referring to just standing in one place vs the sitting), then yea, the heart would have to work to pump the blood that further distance against gravity.
Canadian studies show tooth decay only goes down with fluoridated water in areas with higher poverty rates and higher lack of dental hygeine. Better off suburban areas with better dental hygeine, it makes no difference.
Sorry, having troublefinding the relevant link. However, I will provide this that makes some claims about decay going down despite fluoridation.

When I cancelled my credit account with them, the phone monkeys didn't understand that B of A was the one that had compromised my data. They kept trying to convince me to just go to a different number. I kept trying to tell them that it didn't matter if B of A was compromised to begin with.
B of A also didn't tell me when they sent my account details to another email address. Fortunately, I owned the domain it was sent to so someone's stupid typo still got back to me. I can bet that they're not telling a lot of customers when they screw up.
B of A also implimented fees to talk to tellers if you didn't have a minimum balance in your account and then a fee for going below that balance.
B of A is screwed up in many ways that you have been fortunate not to come across.
I have no trouble with my credit union. ATMs everywhere, no charges. No stupid phone monkeys so far. Better rates as well. Also online banking. I can even open Roth IRAs over the phone.
I never said overbrewed. I do know the difference, especially since the process (toasting the leaves and the temperature that the leaves are steeped at) is very similar for tea. You can have your stroke now.
and there's 100% no way that you've had an incredible ice wine for $20. a glass, maybe. but a bottle? probably not. there's no way any vineyard could sell a wine in which the amount of fluid from each grape is around one drop for $20.
Bottles, not glasses.
Kiona 2002. I currently have 8 bottles left of the two cases I purchased at the beginning of last year. I'd currently sell them for far higher than what Inniskillin or Jackson-Triggs best ice wines are going for.
Kiona 1997.
Their 2003 wasn't as good in my opinion. Too much acid on the palate.
Some wineries sell at higher price points because they can. Some wineries sell at lower price points because they feel like it and it is a good business strategy as well. I would sooner buy a case of really good $20 ice wine than I would three bottles of a $80 good ice wine. In fact, I bought two cases. Which winery made the higher profit off of me?
Not all cheaper ice wines are made through freezing the grapes artificially. In fact, I've only come across one winery that made ice wine artificially. Via nature, the grapes on the vine have to be frozen at that temperature (I thought it was 17 F) for at least three days, then picked and transported AND CRUSHED while staying under that temp to qualify as ice wines. Kiona is one example of an inexpensive ice wine that doesn't artificially freeze the grapes. I've forgotten the winery who created a late harvest artificially but sold it for the same price as other wineries were selling their naturally created late harvests.
My jury is still in deliberation about artificial vs nature created late harvests and ice wines. I haven't come across a wide sampling of artificially created wines, only maybe three so far, so there hasn't been a good cross comparison on how good or bad it can be.
The liver is resiliant to a point. But it takes quite a while for it to recover. I've done a case study on the effects of alcohol on the liver. One day of drinking five glasses of wine can take two entire months to remove the elevated liver counts.
I'd think that five glasses per two months is rather moderate. I certainly didn't expect the counts to go as high as they did and definitely didn't expect them to take so long to go down.
And on the occasional end of one glass per two weeks, it still has an effect on the liver. The liver is working harder to remove the alcohol from your system and your counts are measurably up.
Smoking pot appears to have beneficial pain reducing effects. But I'm not arguing about the ills of society nor if they should even be legislated. This was supposed to be why deregulating state control of interstate commerce was good.:)
You can't really taste the coffee so don't even need to like coffee to drink it, you just have to want to be trendy.
I thought the only reason to go there was to get a little coffee flavoring with one's sugary concoction.;) The real reason they're all over the place is because they're one of the few quiet places still open 24 hrs around campuses and don't mind people taking up space: the perfect study nook and supplier of caffinated sugary drinks. Also, the superior local run coffee houses usually close at 8 or 10 while starbucks drive-through is open much later.
I don't know so much about helping the brain cells. I'm pretty sure any help was only found in red wine, and also that it wasn't the alcohol, but something found in red grapes (tanin?). Also, I think it had to do with keeping the blood from clotting.. but it is also a trade off with liver function as well.
But I don't really remember the specific research studies and I'm not a doctor... yet.
Most people I know who are wine geeks are also food geeks: they are very palate oriented, love trying new tastes and new combinations. And wine is just another vector of exploration.
Starbucks is crap. Most coffee drinkers will agree on that they burn their beans. I wouldn't say music is easily comparable in good or bad for one genre or another.
Wine: there are some really crap wines out there. The only people who drink them are drinking it to get drunk. I didn't drink wine regularly until two years ago because I valued my brain cells over the poor quality of wines that I came across. I still don't like dry wines. But give me a nice ice wine or port and I'm quite happy. In fact, I spent last year's vacation in Portugal to explore ports. There are many things which make up a wine which aren't even present in the cheap crap: fruitiness (whether it tastes like bing cherries or apricots or pear even), acid, tannin, and how these are balanced. A lot of wines I try out are a little too high in acid to be drunk alone, but apply that acid to a pairing with cheese and it's the perfect compliment.
But back to your question of why would people buy wine over the internet: because their favorite wine is X miles away and they don't want to travel for it. There are really good wines that are sold a three hours drive away from me and I buy them over the internet because shipping is cheaper than the gas it would cost me to get up there and back. There are wines 400 miles away from me and in a different state and it would be great if I could get that specific wine that I like over the internet rather than have to travel there or order through a wine club with a heavy mark up.
And good wine isn't necessarily expensive either. I've found incredible ice wines at $20 where the average price goes for $60.
Life's too short for crap wine, killing brain cells with crap wine, and periods of time you don't remember because you were drunk off your ass (and excuses to act that way in the first place).
I'd have to know your niche to be able to make a comparison to explain. I'd say it is why a particular distro of linux is favored more than others.. and why all distros of linux are above and beyond your vending machine windows box.

So they're doing it out in the Mohave now. Unless there is regulation, there is nothing to prevent them from offering flights over your favorite large city.
Didn't the FAA have to clear Mojave as a space port before Scaled Composites could even have the first launch? So in fact they CAN'T offer flights over your favorite large city. They also had to have a flight path already mapped before takeoff. So there are already some procedures in place.
And laws are made by representatives, not the people. It is a common reason why representatives are voted out: because they do not make laws in accordance with the "will of the people".
I thought I'd give your suspect points some reason for them not to be suspect.
Recently I was driving down a stretch of highway in my Saturn. I had cruise control set. All of a sudden, my throttle disengages, very much like if I had hit the brake.
This should have been an easy fix such that I press the Resume button and the speed should have been resumed. This did not work. I pressed Increase in case the speed had been strangely set lower. This did not work. I braked (which disengages the cruise control, but does not turn it off) and then attempted to resume speed through the Resume button. This didn't work. I depressed the gas pedal and pressed SET to reset the cruising speed. This did not work.
The only way I could get cruise control functioning for me again was to turn the system off and then back on again. This was a one time occurance, but if my cruise control system can fuck up this bad to where it does not accept input through its normal channels of Set, Resume, and accelerate (Increase), and actually has to be turned off to function properly, then I can give this guy the benefit of the doubt.
My acceleration does not stop cruise control and in fact resumes cruising when the car drops back to the pre-set speed.

My identity was stolen via the internet. Not by my doing, but by my bank's doing.
My bank (a rather large one) was hacked. Later, that information was used in connection with the Russian mob to commit internet fraud.
And my bank has not been the only one out there that has been hacked.
