They do mention it. They suggest that those types of ailments are increasing, but not at a pace that would explain these deaths. "...the study clearly shows they are not the result of diseases such as lung cancer or diabetes, which ar

I don't think that's a good fit for a person in your situation. It's so unlikely that you'll die in that period. I don't know about if you have kids, a house, or your work situations, but I would consider lowering

I don't think #1 is as bad as you think. It works if you make it easier for people to vote, but don't force them to vote. Additionally, emphasizing that citizens have a right to vote and giving them more time to do so can lead m

This is a very cool tool. I wouldn't trust it with any sensitive info though. The lack of terms, https, and the fact that it's closed source means I have no idea of what could happen to the data I put in there.

You don't get the same bang for buck out of a master's degree, but it's not clear that enrollment won't rise again when the economy slumps again. Getting a Master's Degree gets you classes, experience, connections,

I'm just guessing, but they could be using info that was obtained when a user was trying to get a loan. Typically, your info is sent to multiple lenders so you can get the best rate. Somebody could be collecting the info somewhere alon

I feel your pain, but you completely left out the option of the train. I usually use it to get to the airport. It is slower, but it costs a lot less and runs 24 hours a day. If you're lucky, the train will even take you up the escal
