I have to say that I love the galaxy note 8.0 for note taking. So much so that I'm trying to buy up as many as I can find so that I will always have one. There are 2 main reasons for this: 1st: I love the size. The 10s are a little too

I would propose that maybe they can't remember their membership number, so are forced to look it up on a piece of paper. Whereas they believe they know their email, and maybe make typos. I know that whenever I have to contact a service

Maybe he was referring to this period: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Colombia#Pre-Colomb... It could make sense in the context of the area of Colombia being a crossroad territory similar to the Middle East,

Not who you were replying to, but I helped a Luddite friend set up a wp blog 7 years ago and we had 1 minor hack about 6 years ago. It updates itself automatically so haven't really had to do much work with it.

I wish that there would be an option to say how I want my taxes spent. For example, give 10 categories, like education, military, health, infrastructure, government etc. Require a minimum for each, say 2%. Then its up to me to allot the res
