Apples and Oranges. Ireland was a nationalist thing, not a Christian thing. Call us when Spanish Catholics blow up subways in London because of what they perceive as British atrocities against their fellow Catholics.
British born muslims of Pakistani heritage blowing up the London subway because of British involvement in the war = Religious.
Irish terrorists blowing up shit in the UK and the rest of the catholic world not really giving a shit about it = Nationalist.
It's not a joke. Read about Allie, the prostitute featured in the book Superfreakonomics.
Q Do your parents know about what you do for a living? What was your occupation before you became a call girl? What made you go into this line of work? Was it just the money or was it the flexible hours and the chance to be your own boss? – Dmitri
A.
My parents don’t know about my work, or anything else about my sex life. I was a programmer when I decided to quit my job and become an escort. I was single and meeting people through a popular dating website. Finding someone “special” proved to be difficult, but I did meet many nice men. At that time, the reason I gave up my programming job was the free time. I was caring for a family member with a serious illness — the free time and money was a huge benefit.

It's a good thing that he's identified the problem....but..he has no budgetary authority to influence the VA's IT spending decisions. If the VA does decide to upgrade their systems, it's the beltway bandits that will influence the choice of software..not Kundra.
Look at HSAs. IF you are young(40), that might be a good option. Basically, it allows you to put money in a tax free health saving account. You can use this account for medical expenses. You get a HSA plan from an insurance company. A HSA plan is a high deductible plan but you you use your pre-tax $$ from the HSA account for the deductibles. You can contribute up to 5800$/yr and if you don't use the money this year, it rolls over to the next yeat(unlike a flex spending account).
Best of luck.

You can't extrapolate this to the NYT. Newsday doesn't have the same journalistic creds as the New York Times. A comparison with the Wall Street Journal would be more apt.
how are they going to convince us about their objectivity?
Objectivity is subjective. The TimeSelect thing failed because people didn't want to pay for opinion. The NYT does some good reporting and I might be willing to pay for it.
According TFA, this is an internal system. No different from a log file. How is this a backdoor? Can the law enforcement agencies access it from the outside?
s a result of the actions of a few idiots, a TRILLION FUCKING DOLLARS (that is, the life's work of at least a million people) has been blown reacting to these idiots
Taken out of context, that could apply to the bankers on Wall Street.

Why can't it be both. Why can't the 90hr work week be common knowledge while the details of what they're actually working on be a tightly help secret?
Ethical is paying a fair wage to your employees,
Fair by what standard?

Like I said, not as bad as China, but certainly nothing close to ideal...
That's a straw man. Where did OP claim the US was a utopia?
Well said. I completely agree and I wasn't even born in the US.

Serious question: How many kids have you raised?

There's no guarantee that Indian workers recruited by that Monster.com ad would work on US Department of Labor projects.
Hello?
According TFA, this is an internal system. No different from a log file. How is this a backdoor? Can the law enforcement agencies access it from the outside?
You guys are a bunch of lazy assholes.
We don't have time to read the summary. We're at work, you insensitive clod.
Thank god for the Canadians and their CAN-DU attitude.
Isn't this a problem with stop signs? Don't stop signs get covered with snow?

Clearly if you are on /., you don't know what it is.
Could it be because middle class parents are more likely to push back against drug recommendations?
Thank god they're following baseball rules. It could have been worse. It could have been cricket.
Unless...the missiles they can lob at your house have the fake chips you sold them.
A lot of natural resources go into Solar panels. Resources that need to be mined.
If you're doing it anally, your chances of procreation are not very high.
