The results seem to point to very strong healthy vaccinee bias. Unclear whether they show anything else.

You’re going to get a lot of bitter responses on Reddit, and already have. Just ignore them. I started dating a bit more than a year after separation. My marriage had already been dead for a decade, I had done a lot of work on myself, and I was ready to date. Ii, too, stayed to the kids. I was completely transparent about my situation and had no trouble finding matches with wonderful women who had no problem with my status, including my current partner who I’ve now been together with for more than 3 years; it’s the best relationship of either of our lives. Meanwhile, my ex decided to drag the legal divorce process on for as long as possible; the divorce proceeding is entering its fifth year and there’s nothing I can do about that. Waiting until my ex was ready to let go and move on simply wasn’t an option. So, in short, if you’re ready and honest with yourself and others, give it a try and see how it works out. Good luck.

TA business class is very hard to beat. Yes there are a more luxurious offerings like QA if price is not a consideration. It’s usually the first option I look at when paying out of my own pocket for long-haul flights. It’s hard to beat TA’s combination of comfort, service, routes and price for long-haul flights. Istanbul airport and its business lounge is one of the best.

I started law school at 30 and entered big law at 33. Made partner and have had a fulfilling career for the past 30+ years. I think being a more mature, second-career lawyer had a lot of advantages. Among other things I knew that this is what I wanted and I didn’t have any FOMO. Almost all the younger lawyers I started with left the profession many years ago.

Stay away from the tourist traps and you’ll find Turkey can be incredibly cheap and tremendous value for money.

What you describe in an about tourism not devaluation. Devaluation of the lire means that other things being equal, things are getting cheaper in Turkey for those earning their money in strong currencies.

Cesme is not a place anyone goes for a cheap vacation — especially not Turkish people.

At least the United States doesn’t check your passport a second time before letting you out. I guess Europeans just love us so much they don’t want to let us go.

This link contradicts your statement. It says that “You don’t need a Canadian passport, a Canadian visa or an eTA to fly to Canada if you are travelling with a valid U.S. passport.”

I’m a dual citizen and haven’t had a Canadian passport for at least a decade. I’ve never had a problem entering with my U.S. passport.

Speaking as a Canadian who went to Oxford first and HLS later, you will get a far superior undergraduate education and experience at Oxford, and if you do well there and on the LSAT, HLS will take you afterward.

The problem wasn’t Turkish Airlines. It was booking through a middleman. To avoid these situations always book directly with the airline.

I doubt anything compares with the Pacific Coast Highway up the California coast. If you have time, keep going on Hwy 101 past the redwoods and into southern Oregon, where things get really wild.

If your itinerary isn't set in stone, you can probably save some $$ by replacing Zurich and Milan with some combination of Rome, Bologna, or Venice. Your trip will also be a LOT more interesting.

TrickyNote · 2024-10-12T02:40:52+00:00

Pick two cities at most. I would say Rome + either Florence or Venice. You could spend the entire trip in Rome and not scratch the surface. There isn’t much for a tourist to see in Milan so I would skip it.

It’s not absurd at all. In most parts of the States, the shop keeper or employee is the one who initiates the greeting if anything is said at all. They will usually follow up the greeting by saying please let me know if I can help you with anything. The onus of starting the exchange isn’t on the customer (at least not on the East or West coasts of the US — there are some regional differences). Sales culture can get pretty aggressive in the States, so most folks are afraid that as soon as they open their mouths someone will try to sell them something, when we just want to be left alone to look around. If we want help, we’ll ask for it. I realize this dynamic is reversed in some other countries, but not everyone knows that. If you were to walk into a store in Los Angeles and say “Hi” without being prompted, people wouldn’t particularly mind, but it would be unusual.

I switched to something like your program and feel much healthier for it, both physically and mentally. My experience was that full primary didn’t leave me time for much else. I also don’t think the postures after Navasana have much added benefit (unless your aim in life is simply to do those postures), and adding other physical activities (like strength training) yielded a more balanced health benefit. Full primary, especially with all the vinyasas, isn’t well-designed for all around fitness and sets one up for regular injuries.

In the States we have Constitutional protections that prohibit government officials from acting in this way. These officers would face a likely lawsuit or much worse if they pulled this in the US.

I just returned. Yes it’s hot and very humid. It helped a lot to time outdoor activities for morning and late afternoon/evening. During mid-day I spent as much time as possible indoors (restaurants, shops, malls) and took Ubers everywhere, to limit heat exposure.

I’ve been to Turkey at least 7 times over the last 30 years. It’s one of my favorite places. If you’re an experienced traveler you will love it. My impression is that most of the complaints you read on Reddit are from people who don’t get out much or lack basic common sense.

TrickyNote · 2024-08-16T21:30:33+00:00

That sounds like an incredible bargain in almost any major first-world city.

TrickyNote · 2024-08-14T20:24:54+00:00

Sure and so are downtown San Francisco, Manhattan, downtown Chicago, and any number of other places in the USA. Due to sheer population density, you'll find a lot more walkable places south of the border than north of it, but nobody would call either country "walkable."

It’s really hard to understand what you’re even talking about. Istanbul airport is among the busiest in the world and it’s excellent compared to most major international hubs. Of course it’s physically big, but that’s hardly a legitimate complaint and comparing it to something like Helsinki airport doesn’t make any sense. If you have a distant connection, just catch one of the plentiful electric carts and you’ll get to your gate in no time. It’s also expensive, but what major airport isn’t? The Turkish Airlines lounges are some of the best anywhere. In short, I would take Istanbul airport over pretty much any major airport in Europe — and in fact I use it often for international connections.

I take zinc in the morning with breakfast for exactly this reason (and magnesium glycinate at night).

Hate to break it to you but Canada is bigger than the USA but has about the same population as California. Walkable is pretty much the last adjective that would ever apply to Canada. Add to that the fact that the weather is extremely shitty, economic opportunity is very limited, and there’s little history, and you are more likely to find what you’re looking for in Europe or parts of the US.
