Questions about the security of U.S. borders and effectiveness of U.S. border controls have been compounded by recent events in Europe and migration from Central America. However, political rhetoric obscures the complexity of North American border relations, which are actually dominated by the growth of beneficial and legal cross-border trade and travel.

On March 16, Foreign Policy at Brookings’s Latin America Initiative and Americas Society/Council of the Americas co-hosted a two-panel discussion exploring how new policies for the U.S.-Mexico border can balance the benefits of a continued rise of legal travel and trade with the simultaneous need for Mexico and the United States to work collaboratively to improve border security.

Actually, it's probably hollow.

You mess with my kid and I'll mess with you, got it?

The dangers of a monoculture, where one security 'feature' is easily circumvented by not using the 'appropriate' software. In this case, Outlook Web Access is written with Internet Explorer in mind, and the NHS was naive enough to fall for the Microsoft marketing tricks

Use the following criteria to make a decision that works for your business and takes the worry of securing your business off of your plate.

I like how one guy has a full head of hair, another guy is bald on the sides, and another bald on the top :))

Security is tight at Windsor Castle so one goes through an airport style check on the way in. My Swiss Army Knife was placed in a bag tagged with the number 255 and this was written on my ticket so that I could reclaim it when I came out … however, I forgot to do so!

Strolling along about half an hour before the coach left I suddenly realised … I ran, then walked when I got puffed out, back to the entrance to the castle. It was shut but people were still coming out of the exit; happily I was able to get my knife from the staff who had transferred it from the way in to the way out :)
