Not always. ICE can detain a person suspected of being in the USA unlawfully, and then an immigration judge can assess whether they should be removed/deported from the country. Here is a link explaining the details: https://www.lawofficeimmigrati...

So what? Just clear your cookies before and after and financial transaction. Takes no time for the couple of times a week you do it.

FB could cave in to vk.com, which is basically a clone of FB, but with completely unregulated up- and downloads of music and videos.

Default interface is English.

There's even a logout button in the main menu.

And a quarter of the number of people that the US has in jail.

Here are two links to articles about children who use echolocation to compensate for their blindness:

The Australian Financial review charges about $100/month for news and seems to be doing OK: https://subscribe.afr.com/afr/default.aspx?referrer=1

"Columbia requires all students to study the important books of the western cannon. "

Do they include Rommel's "Gefechts-Aufgaben für Zug und Kompanie : Ein Handbuch für den Offizierunterricht" (Combat tasks for platoon and company: A manual for the officer instruction)?

I know it's not cannon-centred, but surely such a classic must have been on the list somewhere?

And what about his "Infanterie greift an" (Infantry Attacks)?

Large Synoptic Survey Telescope, although they had to grind it anyway after it had cooled down (three months later).

A good idea, of course. But what happens to the ship's rotation as its centre of gravity continually changes with the movements of its passengers? Should the ship have some sort of compensatory device? How could this be dealt with?

And ended with a "Big Bang"!

While in theory, I greatly admire the strictness you have described, according to NationMaster figures, Germany's road death toll is just slight of Australia's, which has a pretty easy driving test.

Putting death toll aside, are there any other benefits of this test? More considerate driving? Less road rage? Death toll is not the ultimate measure of road usability, so it would be interesting to hear about whether the strict testing has any effect on road culture.

This is assuming that NationMasters' figures are more-or-less accurate.

How about sending up a Stinger on another balloon with some remote control built in? Surely it wouldn't cost that much to stabilise and fit with video for capturing the target. Could you capture the target from the ground and send up the initial coordinates? Does this make any sense at all?

Just for your information (unless you were joking), "kudos" is not a plural, so there is no single "kudo". Sort of like there is no "octopu" as a singular octopus. OK octopuses are countable, while kudos is not, but you get the drift.

Maybe a better example would be you can put hommos on your pita bread with your falafel, but not one hommo.

Fair enough point about the lack of buttons, but what if Apple added some voice control via the iPhone or whatever?

That could be fun!
