Actually that was the Continental Marines. The modern US Marine Corps was created alongside the Navy on March 27, 1794 when congress passed the "Naval Act of 1794" also known as "Act to Provide a Naval Armament". The US Marine Corps like to trace their heritage to the original revolutionary war naval detachment created in 1775.
The appearance of her being singled out may simply be a result of her publicist trying to distance her from the recent outbreak of measles in New York City which generates articles on the internet (like this one on Slashdot) that creates an opportunity for her critics to voice their disdain.
This is a prime example of living by and dying from the sword.
I think the stories from parents come not from the vaccines doing actual harm but from the fact that coincidentally the age when symptoms of autism presents itself is the same as when the vaccines are scheduled to be administered.
Other factors that adds to parents concerns are the rate of autism being diagnosed appears to be rising exponentially based on the graph presented by AutismSpeaks: The rate for 1985 was 1 in 2500, the rate in 1995 was 1 in 500, and the rate for 2009 was 1 in 110. If you looked at the text rather than the very prevalent graph you would have read that the criteria for positive diagnosis of autism has changed and public awareness increased significantly during the time period graphed which can make the graph a little misleading.
AutismSpeaks also gave another possible reason for the increase over the years being attributed to the increase of the average parental age. Several research papers have demonstrated a link between autism and parental age and have concluded that the chances for a child being born with autism increases with parental age.
I have not seen any direct quote from her that indicates an opposition to the principle of vaccines or the efficacy of all vaccines. She is misguided in insisting that vaccines cause autism, but that is not the same thing as being against vaccination in general.
Actually here is a quote from her given during a Good Morning America interview in 2008:
McCarthy and Carrey said that while they do support immunization, they and their allies believe children receive "too many vaccines, too soon, many of which are toxic."
"We are not here to destroy the vaccine program. We're here to lend our voices for the millions of people calling for balance and moderation when it calls to substances that we give our children," Carey said. "They are not bottomless pits that you endlessly pour the substances into. You have to consider the cumulative effect. Not only that, the possible interaction. Every other drug has interaction with other drugs and yet they assume vaccines won't."
She is basically straddling the fence. Being enough anti-vaccine to encourage parents from having their children vaccinated yet not enough to where she doesn't have an exit strategy which will not threaten any product endorsements, possible TV/movie roles or make it impossible for her to simply say she was misunderstood when she is proven wrong.
Notice how she didn't say which vaccines shouldn't be given to children. She just basically said don't trust your pediatrician and just left it to the parents' fear to figure that out.
BTW my answer in no way reflects the opinions of the ARRL which I haven't been a part of in quite a while. Just saying congrats from an old and experienced ham.
The frequency you use to communicate with the drone have little to do with it. It's the actual activity being performed by the drone and if the drone is of sufficient size it is still falls under to jurisdiction of the FAA. The FCC only regulates the radio communication portion. Congrats on your license. I'm an extra class former section manager of ARRL myself.
Using the FAA's flawed logic you could claim that it is illegal for amateur radio operators to help in search and rescue or during natural disasters emergency operations. I know this is not the case.
Why OpenSSL is so popular? It has FIPS-certified module, and this becomes important for selling your product to the government.
FIPS certification is for a specific compiled version of OpenSSL and is not a blanket certification. The only way you are FIPS compliant is if you document that your product uses the exact same compiled version of OpenSSL or you submit your version of OpenSSL to be certified.

What is this "War on Boys" started by Google?
Sarcasm aside, I think there are some concerns that Google is incentivizing sexual discrimination. The teacher has a financial incentive concentrate their efforts to encourage girls to become coders. This means that if both a boy and girl student shows an aptitude towards coding and needs encouragement, the teacher is more likely to spend extra time with the girl at the expense of the boy.
Between President Obama (who has not yet proven he's even an *american*), pushing for equal pay for women and now this sort of blatent sexism that ostracizes males from even getting a decent education, our country is going downhill.
That topic is equal pay for qualified workers, we are discussing equal education for public school students. Google offering a bounty for girl coders isn't related to Obama pandering for the female votes for the upcoming mid-term elections.
The fatality numbers are the number of accidents with fatalities not the total number of fatalities. So if you are in a van or plane and 5 people die, it still only counts as one accident with fatalities.
There are 253,108,389 vehicles registered in 2012 and there were 5,870,000 (~2% of registered vehicles) accidents with 25,580 of them having a fatality. (0.44% of the accidents had fatalities).
There are 109,870 personal fixed wing aircraft registered 2012 and there were 1,020 (~1% of registered aircraft) accidents with 206 of them having a fatality (20.2% of the accidents had fatalities).
I don't know, aside from a few mountains that mostly stay put there's nothing to hit in the air except other planes, and there's a LOT more room to maneuver than on the street.
You forgot about the weather. We had TWO Cessna crashes with fatalities in my state in since February. Both may have been weather related.
You can always pull over in a car when the weather gets rough.
The paper (if you read it) claims that the requirement should be enforced based on the Microsoft having monopolistic power in the marketplace.
The proposal seems dubious and restricting it to Microsoft with some handwaving and using "monopolistic power" as a condition doesn't make the proposal sound any better.
Research scientists are not usually the same people who teach college classes. Their research is funded by grants and licensing revenue NOT tuition. Tuition is used toward the education of the student.

You mean that service that Comcast is part owner of and uses to show their own demand content on the internet?
You have it backwards.. Netflix is paying so that it can keep itself from being lockout.

So your argument is essentially the ends justify the means and you back that reasoning with nonsensical and irrelevant examples.
Agree. My input to the discussion was that weather is a factor that immerman didn't take into consideration. He only spoke of fixed obstacles.
I failed to mention earlier that the NSTB safety data was limited to personal fixed wing aircraft which have the same occupancy as a personal vehicle.

Also the statistics from the NTSB were specific to personal fixed wing aircraft which do not carry a large number of passengers (avg. 3).
The fatality numbers are the number of accidents with fatalities not the total number of fatalities. So if you are in a van or plane and 5 people die, it still only counts as one accident with fatalities.
To put those number is perspective:
There are 253,108,389 vehicles registered in 2012 and there were 5,870,000 (~2% of registered vehicles) accidents with 25,580 of them having a fatality. (0.44% of the accidents had fatalities).
