get out, leave. Devry has nothing to offer when it comes to the workplace and it's credits don't transfer another university (this is a MAJOR red flag).

The Economist suffers from a slightly British right bias and has obvious bias against china (which China returns by sending it's 5 cent army to spam the comment section).

But as a whole, tends to be more intellectually worthwhile than most other publications out there.

Oh i have countless memorable events. Never heard the falcon taking food off a plate though. thats priceless. I HAVE heard the flacon grabbing a kids head though... bled like crazy. They are serious when they say DONT WAVE SHIT AT THE FALCON.

Indeed, Been around a few hunts with falconers and bird made more than a few dives at someone because their hat make their head look like a jackrabbit's ass. The movement triggers the impulse to chase and kill.

furry object + motion = bad time for said object.

Bruce, I've followed your blog for a while and I've always wondered about the fact that a malicious party can subvert the various security apparatuses employed to stop them to achieve their goals.

For example: one could simply leave a empty suitcase in an airport or train station and make a phone report stating that you saw a "suspicious person" drop it there. The end goal results is two fold: 1. the temporary shut down thus allowing economic cost to build up, and with repeated efforts, you effectively train the security staff to ignore an actual attack by flooding them with false positives.

Is there anyway to effectively counter this?

Yes. It's really rare to kidnap people--especially tourists. However, it DOES happen. In this article in FP (http://www.foreignpolicy.com/articles/2011/05/31/the_rise_of_the_red_market[1] ) I wrote about several cases where people are simply picked up off the streets and robbed of their organs. That said, it is generally a lot less risky for the brokers to simply convince people they've entered into a fair trade, rather than raise suspicion amongst law enforcement.

Until they have you under. Once that have that, I would suspect they could scrap you for useful parts and leave you there. By the time you come to, they are long gone.

And that's if you come to.
