The different frequencies used for cellphones are not different enough for that to be a factor. X-rays are roughly ten million times the frequency as a cellphone radio.
Also depends on where in the UV band you are. Some types of interaocular lens implants will allow you to see a little into the UVA band. My grandma had such a lens after she had cataract surgery.
America has...like...way more people than alot of other first world countries. Of course we pay twice as much as everyone else for health care. More people, more money. Duh.
I'd much rather have a company, whose profits are on the line (assuming the feds don't decide to bail them out), staffed by people, whose salaries are on the line, dealing with an issue than a bureaucrat who will use failure as an excuse to ask for a bigger budget. In private industry, failure is punished. In government, it's rewarded.

Even if a single dose is sufficient to halt the reaction, they're still going to be spending at least the rest of the day at the hospital, even if just for observation (biphasic anaphylaxis).
Also, anaphylaxis can result in less obvious symptoms than the classic bronchoconstriction everyone knows about, which happens about 70% of the time. Possible symptoms include fainting and cardiac arrhythmia, which most people wouldn't associate with an allergic reaction.

With regard to India, their population growth rate is dropping like a stone. Their total fertility rate has fallen by 0.3 in just the past 5 years. They're going to be below replacement rate shortly.
Yeah, I know. I feel like I'm in an ocean with all the blue around here (Saskatchewan).
Furthermore, we've got Tom Filibuster Lukiwski, who I would dearly like to get rid of, but that seems highly unlikely unless something interesting happens.
Germany is the worlds second largest exporter, far more efficient in every way than the US, and doesn't bother with space exploration because it isn't useful to them.
Germany certainly has a space program, the Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt (trans: German Center for Aerospace ). They're also part of the European Space Agency (The main ESA astronaut training center is located in Cologne and mission control is in Darmstadt). Their budget is considerably smaller (€1.4 billion or about $2 billion USD), but it does exist and do stuff.
They just don't do launches themselves as their latitude makes it impractical (their furthest south point is 47 degrees, vs. the 28 degrees (Kennedy Space Center) the US launches stuff from or the 5 degrees (Guiana Space Centre) France can launch from. higher latitude=more delta-v needed to reach orbit=need bigger rockets=more expensive), same reason the Canadian Space Agency doesn't launch our own stuff.
Sasktel's wireless broadband is semi-close. It's basically a neat hack of DOCSIS using dish antennas and some extra equipment bolted onto cell towers.
It's not exactly fast (2Mb/256Kb, or 3Mb/384Kb if you pay the big bucks for the 4-hour-QoS-agreement business connection.) or cheap ($250 to buy the equipment, then $60/month, or $300/month for the business option), but it works well, and no caps, and therefore just blows the competition out the water.
Slashdot Mirror
it's listed from low to high by frequency or long to short by wavelength. Take your pick.
You should read the rest of his post history.
what exactly is a "bid badger"?

That was just really tiny scuba gear with air compressed to absurd pressures.

Twice as much per capita.
40% of the population is "a few"?

It's called Microsoft.
It will retain all license plates scanned and where they were scanned, rather than just comparing them to a list.
Not really. Dolly was a bit of a fluke in that regard. She contracted a form of viral cancer fairly common to sheep.

What the hell does experience campaigning have to do with actually doing anything?
Virgin and Boost don't buy from the big 4, they ARE the big 4.
Virgin and Boost are wholly owned subsidiaries of Sprint.

Estimates a peak population of 9.22 billion.
Should the CIO of a company be calling out the Marketing Dept?
If they did, maybe we can get some actual honesty out of marketing.
Or Android devices made by assholes (read: Motorola, etc.) who lock down the bootloader.
Are you suggesting that Netflix has been losing money on DVDs? Cuz if so how did they make it before streaming was even offered?
The USPS did increase their rates this April. That very well could have erased an already slim margin.
Wikileaks, probably not, but some portions of anonymous being covertly fed targets is not a possibility to be ignored.

Don't worry. Harpo of the Reform party is working on that.
