As a Paw user, I can say that I have found it extremely useful, and well worth the cost. However, it has been a disappointment to me that (at least the last time I asked), "dynamic values" are actually "dynamic string values

I am an outsider (European) looking in but closely following the US presidential primaries this year, so I don't have a horse in the race. There are a number of levels at which there has been clear unfairness or cheating (depending on

I find the term "accident" a somewhat meaningless distinction. Millions of people have gotten cancer (statistically) from the radiation in the atmosphere as a result of nuclear tests. Does it really matter that the tests were int

So what about all WWII games that have a swastika, or any number of historical flags that are simply referencing history rather than supporting an ideal? This is plain ridiculous.

Let's just list "Europe" when Spain does something. Just like we all should think anything that happens in Alabama is descriptive of the whole of the United States.

Time to look for a new payment provider. Braintree stood out with their amazing service and support. Paypal stand out for their complete lack of competent service and support.

My girlfriend has traveled to 60+ countries around the world, and she said that the US border experience was worse than any other country she has been to by a long margin. It's a pity that the first welcome people get amounts to "we don't w
