I think I'd accidentally stick my thumb/finger in front of a central camera even more often than I already do with corner cameras!

But Syria is (incorrectly) stereotyped as "brown people killing brown people" which college students shrug at. While Israel is (incorrectly) stereotyped as "white people killing brown people" which is a big no no. Incorr

You think Hezbollah would care about ICC consequences? They've been violating the UN resolution calling for them to withdraw north, disarm, and stop attacking Israel for years. Their stated (short term) goal is to disallow anyone in no

Yes switching jobs is often a path to "sideways promotion". You have to interview well, but that's something that's learnable - and more under your control in a way, than getting good promotable projects at your current
