Interviews with males 5 to 75 years old:What time do you get up?

Glamour's survey is interesting in that, with the exception of a few who woke up in the early morning hours, most woke up at a regular "healthy time" between 6 and 8 a.m. Not only does this not change with age, but almost no one mentioned the difference between a workday and a day off.

If it was a day off, would you still get up at the same pace as your workday? It feels like a lot of young people nowadays would use it to catch up on their late nights at work.

Popular science: how can IKEA make you want to buy more and more?

I don't know if you've ever felt that every time you walk into Ikea, you can't help but look around and touch things. This kind of behavior is called "impulse shopping" in psychology, which means that when people see the advantages of something, they forget about their own needs and make an order without thinking about it. Ikea, on the other hand, is a master at exploiting this psychology.

In this video, Vox asked the creative director of IKEA to explain the concept of IKEA's layout design. According to him, only about 20% of the purchases made in IKEA stores are pre-planned by customers, while the other 80% are impulse purchases.

After all, all the aisle layouts, merchandising, shelf placement, and even the restaurant at the exit are all little bits of IKEA design to get you to buy more stuff.

Popular Science: The disadvantages of sedentary for the body

The skeletal structure of modern humans was not designed to remain seated, which leads to a variety of injuries when we sit in chairs for long periods of time.

Prolonged sitting not only puts extra pressure on the spine and lumbar discs, but it also blocks nerves in the legs and protein transmission that break down fat. Prolonged bending of the muscles also blocks the transmission of nerves and proteins that break down fat in the legs, leading to numbness and fat accumulation in the legs. Also, involuntary leaning forward can compress the lungs, reduce oxygen intake to the brain, and prevent you from thinking.

In this short animated video, Ted vividly demonstrates the stress that sitting posture places on different parts of the body. After watching the video, grab your body and stretch backward, or simply stand up and walk around to relax your body!

MKBHD In-Depth Review: the PlayStation 5

The PS5's first review is here.

MKBHD praised the PS5's overall improvement in image quality: ray-tracing, better reflections, and shadows, higher resolution and frame rate - all of these features put together dramatically improve the overall look and feel - and this is especially true in Spider-Man: Miles: you'll notice the precise shadows of the human body in multiple light directions; you can even recognize the details of buildings across the street through the reflection of water on the ground.

As an NBA 2K21 player, MKBHD said: the new game has further improved the realism of the graphics - players' hair and sweat details are more abundant, the gloss of the floor, the reflection of the lights, and players' dribbling posture are more realistic.

On the hardware level, MKBHD rates the grip highly - there's a built-in haptic system, and a trigger button with adaptive features. Your grip really lets you feel the sand when the game character is running on it, and your hands really feel the ice when the game is taking place on it - it's an amazing experience.

Why a week have 7 days?

"A year is a time it takes the Earth to go around the sun, a month is a time it takes the moon to change phase by one cycle, a day is the cycle of the Earth's rotation - so the question is, what exactly is a week?

Unlike the aforementioned units of time, the concept of the "week" seems to come entirely from the human creation. How is it defined? Why has the world adopted the "7 days equals 1-week" rule?

How did the words "Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday" get invented?

--Youtuber: It's Okay To Be Smart is explained very clearly in the first half of the video.

There are seven "stars" that the ancient people could see with the naked eye - the Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, and the Sun. The ancient Greeks used the number "7" for each of the "gods," while the ancient Babylonians used the number "7" for the heavens. As religions and civilizations spread and evolved, the concept of the week, and the names of the days, took shape.

This guy's explanation from 7:30 onwards is a bit confusing. In a nutshell, the general idea is - there is no definitive evidence that anyone or anything has established the consensus that the week is a 7-day week. But we can now find a lot of significance for the number "7" in the history and culture of various countries.

The HPV vaccine, Should you get vaccinated?

(i)

It is more important for cancer prevention than for treatment, both in terms of effectiveness and money-saving. Therefore, cancer vaccines have always been the holy grail of scientists' dreams.

There are very few cancers that can actually be prevented by a vaccine, mainly two tumors that are closely related to viral infections: cervical cancer (HPV) and liver cancer (HBV).

Almost 100% of cervical cancers are linked to persistent HPV infection, so the HPV vaccine has been an absolute boon to women and has given us hope of eradicating cervical cancer.

Cervical cancer is arguably the only preventable cancer out there, and if all people of the right age were vaccinated and screened regularly, cervical cancer would disappear from the world.

But unfortunately, even though the HPV vaccine is already on the market, the rate of vaccination among the right age group has been low. In a country that is so health-conscious that any cancer supplement can sell for hundreds of millions of dollars, why do people ignore or even reject something so effective?

The main reason for this is still the misunderstanding of the HPV vaccine.

 

(ii)

 

Those above are of great concern, so I'll answer the above and the most central ones I've encountered.

 

Q: Many videos and articles online say that the HPV vaccine has serious side effects and can even cause infertility, is this true?

This is a complete conspiracy theory and rumor, originally sourced from some foreign anti-vaccine groups. Not only are they against HPV vaccines, they are against all vaccines. As a result of their "relentless efforts", infectious diseases, such as measles, which had been eradicated, have returned to the US and Canada, killing children.

The side effects of vaccines are strictly monitored in every country in the world, and tens of millions of women have received the HPV vaccine in the United States alone, with no statistically significant side effects. The risk-benefit ratio of HPV vaccination is positive, except for some people with inherently defective immune systems. If there was a real serious problem, the drug companies would have been cleaned up by the government and lawyers by now.

Conspiracy theories attract attention, but they are not the truth.

 

Q: Is it worth vaccinating if you're already sexually active?

There is no doubt that the best time for HPV vaccination is before sexual activity, which is the most effective, but it does not mean that it is completely useless after sexual activity.

The reason the HPV vaccine is associated with sexual activity is that women who have normal sex have an 80% chance of being infected with at least one type of HPV in their lifetime, and most infections clear up spontaneously in a short period of time. However, there are more than 200 known types of HPV, which are classified as high-risk or low-risk depending on their carcinogenicity. So, while a woman may have been infected with certain subtypes of HPV after having sex, it does not mean that she is infected with the high-risk HPV types that are most likely to cause cervical cancer.

There is value in vaccinating women who have already had sex to prevent continued infection with high-risk HPV types. Research data also proves that vaccination, as a whole, can also be a good protection for this population.

 

Q: Can I still get vaccinated if I'm already over 26 years old?

It is possible. The age range for vaccination currently approved for use is between 9 and 45 years of age for women. Scientifically, whether or not you should be vaccinated is not simply related to age, but rather to the history and current status of sexual activity, the state of the body including the immune system, and the history of HPV infection.

 

Q: Who is not suitable for vaccination?

The HPV vaccine is available to the normal population in most cases. However, a few groups do have specific risks and should delay or avoid vaccination, including people who are running a fever, or who have a compromised immune system (e.g., allergies to proteins and yeast, certain autoimmune diseases), and women at certain times (e.g., pregnant women, breastfeeding women).

Q: Do I still need to be screened after vaccination?

Yes!  Many people think that after getting the HPV vaccine they are done for good and don't have to worry about anything. This is a huge misconception.

It is not true. What is needed to truly eradicate cervical cancer is vaccination + regular screenings.

So for women, screening is still a must. Vaccination is primary prevention and regular screening is secondary prevention, which is the most effective self-protection.

(iii)

Many cancers occur with random factors, but cervical cancer is the only "poor man's cancer" that can be almost completely eliminated!

The core reason for its high prevalence worldwide is the lack of proper public awareness, acceptance, and low prevalence of the vaccine and screening, with many people preferring to take supplements rather than get vaccinated, which is a huge risk for individuals and society.

According to the World Health Organization, more than 70 countries worldwide have included the HPV vaccine in their national immunization programs.

Regarding the timing of the vaccination, it is emphasized that

Vaccinate your child as soon as possible!

The WHO recommends the best time to vaccinate children between the ages of 9 and 14, when they are not yet infected, and at the same time have a strong immune system and good protection. But it is a pity that the majority of parents, especially girls' parents, do not have this concept yet and miss the peak of the immune response.

It is worth noting that more than 70% of cervical cancer cases worldwide are associated with persistent infection with two high-risk viruses, HPV 16 and 18. The WHO has concluded that from a public health perspective, there is no difference between the three vaccines in terms of immunogenicity, efficacy, and effectiveness in preventing HPV16/18-related cervical cancer and that all three vaccines prevent the majority of cancers.

All in all, I hope you will trust science, resist the rumors, and choose the method that is best for you. I believe that one day, cervical cancer can be wiped off the face of the earth.

Salute to life!

What are the signs of each of the 10 major cancers? How should I check?

Cancer, which has become a daunting chronic disease, has become increasingly prevalent in recent years, and if detected and diagnosed early, many patients can be cured.

However, patients with a clear clinical diagnosis of cancer are often locally advanced or have existing distant metastases.

Often, there are no specific symptoms in the early stage of cancer, so that patients cannot seek treatment in time, and when they do, it is often too late. Therefore, how to recognize early symptoms of cancer is crucial to improve patients' prognosis. We call these related symptoms and signs "signs" or "warnings", and if we can read these signals, we can make timely diagnosis and treatment.

What are the signs and symptoms associated with cancer? This big shot article is worthy of your collection.

Cough, hemoptysis, chest pain - lung cancer?

Early-stage lung cancer often has no obvious symptoms, and most early lung cancers are discovered by physical examination.

When the disease progresses to the middle and late stage, irritating dry cough, blood in sputum, chest pain, fever, shortness of breath, and other symptoms often appear. For patients with chronic bronchitis, long-term smokers, and asbestos workers, the incidence rate of lung cancer is higher than the general public, so regular physical examination is needed for early detection and treatment.

Recommended examination: chest X-ray, low-dose spiral CT, lung cancer susceptibility gene test.

High-risk groups:

Long-term exposure to environmental pollution, long-term smokers, second-hand smoke (passive smoking). 

Toxic jobs (physical, chemical carcinogens, etc.).

Chronic lung diseases (tuberculosis, silicosis, pneumoconiosis, etc.).

Internal factors in the body (such as family history, reduced immune function, and endocrine dysfunction).

Upper abdominal pain, loss of appetite - stomach cancer?

As the disease progresses, symptoms of indigestion, such as abdominal distension, discomfort or vague pain, acid reflux, belching, loss of appetite, etc., may appear gradually, which may be overlooked by most patients as chronic gastritis or gastric ulcer.

Therefore, patients with symptoms such as upper abdominal discomfort or vague pain and a history of previous H. pylori infection, smoky food, chronic gastric disease, and the gastric ulcer should be admitted to the hospital for early examination and regular gastroscopy.

Recommended examination: gastroscopy, gastric cancer susceptibility gene test.

High-risk groups.

A family history of gastric and esophageal cancer.

History of chronic gastritis, gastric polyps, peptic ulcers.

People with poor dietary habits: e.g. those who like hot, acidic, spicy, and other irritating food, smoked, fried, and hard food, irregular and overeating diets, frequent consumption of food that may be moldy, etc...

Heavy alcohol consumption, over 40 years of age.

Stress, chronic depression, and anxiety.

Change in bowel habits, bloody stools - colorectal cancer?

Early symptoms of colorectal cancer are not obvious, or they may only include loss of appetite and fecal occult blood.

As cancer progresses, the symptoms gradually appear, such as changes in bowel habits, abdominal pain, blood in the stool, and weight loss. As friction between stool and lump can easily cause bleeding, it is often mistaken as "hemorrhoid" and delayed diagnosis and treatment.

If the above symptoms persist for a longer period of time or cannot be relieved by general treatment, you should also be promptly admitted to the hospital.

Recommended tests: colonoscopy, finger-anal examination, colorectal cancer susceptibility gene test.

High-risk groups.

People with a chronic intake of foods high in fat, protein, and calories.

Over 40 years of age, chronic intake of alcohol, fried foods, etc...

Those with chronic ulcerative colitis, colorectal adenomas, familial colorectal adenomatosis, and colorectal polyps.

A family history of colorectal cancer: familial adenopathy polyposis, hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer.

Any bleeding, change in bowel habits, persistent diarrhea, constipation, etc. should undergo other tests such as colonoscopy.

Pain in the liver area, anorexia, loss of appetite - liver cancer?

Liver cancer is called the "king of cancers". More than half of liver cancer patients are usually in the middle and late stage when it is discovered.

Most early liver cancer patients have no symptoms or signs, and most of them have hepatitis or cirrhosis themselves. When liver discomfort, poor appetite, and other manifestations appear, they do not pay enough attention to it and liver cancer develops rapidly and has a high mortality rate.

Pain or discomfort in the upper right abdomen is the first symptom of liver cancer, which may gradually lead to abdominal distension, loss of appetite, abdominal mass, jaundice, weight loss, and other symptoms. In China, most liver cancers are related to hepatitis B virus infection, so for these people, they should form the habit of regular checkups.

Recommended checkup: half-yearly checkup, including liver color ultrasound and serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP).

High-risk groups.

History of chronic hepatitis B and hepatitis C.

Have a family history of diagnosed liver cancer.

Men over 30 years of age and chronic alcoholics.

Patients with fatty liver, cirrhosis of the liver.

Those who consume pickled, smoked, or moldy foods over a long period of time.

Choking sensation from swallowing - esophageal cancer?

Symptoms of early esophageal cancer are often not obvious and easily overlooked by patients.

As the disease progresses, symptoms such as posterior sternal discomfort, the mild choking sensation when swallowing, foreign body sensation, etc. may occur intermittently or repeatedly, even for several years. At present, the treatment of esophageal cancer is a comprehensive treatment based on surgery. Early detection and early treatment of esophageal cancer can significantly prolong patients' lives.

Recommended Examination: Gastroscopy

High-risk groups:

Family genetic history.

Love of hot food and hot tea.

Love kimchi with carcinogenic nitrites often eats moldy, smoky, spicy foods.

Breast lumps, nipple changes - breast cancer?

The most common symptom of breast cancer is a painless and progressive lump, usually a single lump in one breast.

This is the most common first symptom of painless and progressive breast growth and is usually seen as a single lump on one side of the breast.

Recommended examination: Mammogram, Mammography

High-risk groups:

Women with a family history of breast cancer.

Women with early (<12 years) or late (>55 years) menarche.

(a) Not having children, having children at a later age (after the age of 35 for the first child), or not breastfeeding.

The presence of atypical hyperplasia of the milk ducts and lobules.

Frequent use of products containing hormones.

Bleeding after intercourse - cervical cancer?

Cervical cancer is common in women over the age of 40 and is a common malignancy in women. Early-stage cancer usually has no specific symptoms and is often found during physical examination.

Patients often complain of contact bleeding after sexual intercourse or after gynecological examination, and may also have discomforts such as increased vaginal discharge and lower abdominal cramps. Patients with persistent high-risk HPV infection should undergo regular gynecologic examinations to seek early treatment.

Recommended tests: TCT (liquid-based cytology test), HPV-DNA (human papillomavirus test), tests found positive for high-risk HPV or TCT abnormalities, a colposcopy can be done, if necessary, to take tissue from the cervix for pathological histological diagnosis.

High-risk groups:

Persistent infection with high-risk subtypes of human papillomavirus (HPV) is the leading cause of cervical cancer. Of these, HPV16 and HPV18, accounting for about 70 percent of cervical cancers.

Women who have early sexual intercourse, women who have multiple pregnancies and premature births, women who have multiple sexual partners themselves, or whose spouses have multiple sexual partners.

Women with a history of genital human papillomavirus, herpes simplex virus, HIV infection, or other sexually transmitted diseases.

Women who smoke, use drugs, and suffer from malnutrition.

Women with cervical lesions (chronic cervicitis, cervical precancerous lesions, etc.).

Those with a family history of cervical cancer.

Abdominal pain, jaundice - pancreatic cancer?

Patients with pancreatic cancer often have no obvious clinical manifestations in the early stage of the disease, and when they show clear signs, it is often progressive or late stage, and the prognosis is extremely poor.

Patients with pancreatic head cancer may appear jaundice at an early stage and seek consultation; patients with pancreatic tail cancer may have abdominal pain, upper abdominal fullness, weight loss, and other symptoms to a certain extent.

Recommended Examination: Color ultrasound, CT scan, or MRI

High-risk groups.

Chronic smoking and alcohol consumption.

Patients with chronic pancreatic disease.

Diabetics.

Fever, anemia, purpura - leukemia?

Leukemia is a malignant tumor of the blood system, which may cause unexplained fever, fatigue, anemia, weight loss, muscle or bone pain, and other discomforts, as well as nosebleeds and gum, bleeding, accompanied by enlargement of the liver, spleen, and lymph nodes. If any of these phenomena occur, you should seek medical attention as soon as possible.

Recommended examination: blood routine

High-risk groups:

(a) Prolonged or chronic exposure to certain chemical reagents or drugs.

Persons with congenital, hereditary diseases.

Those who inhale large amounts of renovation pollution gases.

Painlessly enlarged lymph nodes - lymphoma?

Painless, progressive enlargement of superficial lymph nodes is an early sign of lymphoma, which may be accompanied by fever, fatigue, itching, and other discomforts. If there is unexplained prolonged fever, night sweat, weight loss, or a painless enlargement of lymph nodes, the patient should go to the hospital for examination as soon as possible to make a clear diagnosis.

Recommended examination: color ultrasound, CT scan, blood test, biopsy.

High-risk groups.

People who are under stress at work, often stay up late and are chronically overworked.

(a) Persons who are regularly exposed to electronic radiation or a radiation environment.

Those who regularly use poor quality hair dyes, and those who are frequently exposed to chemicals containing benzene or organic solvents.

The early detection of cancer, in addition to the government's attention, medical unit screening, but also depends on everyone to be vigilant, learn to self-examine, self-detection; hope that more patients and families can benefit from the early detection of cancer.

Cancer has been diagnosed? Don't fret, please get these 10 questions straight first.

Nearly 20 million people worldwide are diagnosed with cancer every year.

When hearing the word cancer from a doctor, almost everyone's first reaction is shocking, their minds go blank, and although they have a million questions in mind, they don't know where to start. It's normal, there's no need to worry. The key is to get past this initial blanking period as quickly as possible, and then communicate effectively with your doctor, which is essential for optimal treatment.

So here are some tips on what information is most important to talk to your doctor about. For newly diagnosed patients, thinking about and asking the following 10 questions is a good place to start.

1. is there a cure for my cancer?

This is the first question that almost everyone asks, but it is the most difficult question to answer with no easy answers.

Different people's cancers are completely different, and it is important to listen carefully to your doctor to understand whether the goal of treatment is to cure or prolong life. It is also recommended to know the survival data, probability of recurrence, and treatment options for your specific type of cancer to make the best follow-up decision for you.

2. where is the tumor located? Any metastases?

Oncologists have many treatment tools in their hands, including surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, targeted drugs, immunotherapy, clinical trials, and more. The location and metastasis of the tumor will determine the specific method chosen by the doctor.

For example, some parts of the tumor cannot be operated on, and some parts cannot be treated with radiotherapy. If cancer has metastasized, surgery alone is not enough, but systemic therapy, including chemotherapy, targeted drugs, immunotherapy, etc. is needed.

3. what stage is cancer at?

The purpose of cancer staging is to understand how malignant the tumor cells are. It is based on the state and tissue distribution of tumor cells in the body, usually from stage 0 to stage 4.

Stage 0 is the earliest stage of cancer, where the bad cells are localized and can be cured almost 100% by surgery or radiation therapy.  In stage 4 patients, the cancer cells have already spread to other tissues of the body, so systemic and comprehensive treatment is needed.

4 What therapies does the doctor plan to use?

Nowadays, cancer treatment has become increasingly personalized. Most of the time, doctors will use a mix of therapies to try to achieve the best results.

Be sure to ask your doctor exactly what treatment you plan to use, why you are using each treatment, how long each treatment will take, how often, what the possible side effects are if there are ways to reduce them, etc. 5.

5. will I be able to work during the treatment?

Most therapies have some side effects on the body, and each person may respond vastly differently. Many patients are able to continue to work, engage in recreational activities, and even maintain exercise during treatment.

Cancer treatment is often exhausting and requires patients to reduce the intensity of their work or the frequency of their activities, but people should not give up their hobbies and life completely just because they are going through treatment.

6.Should I change my diet and exercise habits?

To beat cancer, it is important to have a healthy diet, and if possible, it is also better to supplement it with regular exercise.

You can ask your doctor if there are any particular foods or diets that he or she recommends. Some foods can help medications work and some can help reduce the side effects of chemotherapy or radiation therapy. Doctors also often recommend avoiding certain foods, such as those that are high in oil and fat, and difficult to digest.

Exercise is also important: There is evidence that regular exercise can increase a patient's quality of life, including boosting the immune system and reducing pain sensations. But please do what you can to avoid injury.

7 Do I need vitamin or nutritional supplements?

Patients need adequate nutrition and energy to fight cancer, but doctors often recommend supplementation through a rich combination of natural foods rather than a single supplement. Some high-dose supplements may even accelerate the growth of cancer cells or reduce the effectiveness of other anti-cancer drugs, so they must be used with caution.

Always consult your primary care physician before using any supplements, including herbal/natural supplements.

Is it worth trying other treatments besides modern medicine?

In addition to surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, etc., many patients consider so-called "alternative therapies" including acupuncture, massage, yoga, meditation, etc. On the one hand, none of these "alternative therapies" have been proven to be effective in rigorous scientific clinical trials.

On the one hand, none of these "alternative therapies" have been proven effective in rigorous scientific clinical trials, so they alone cannot be expected to cure cancer.

On the other hand, they do often provide benefits such as pain reduction, anxiety relief, mood improvement, and so on. A placebo effect cannot be ruled out, but it can still be considered as an adjunct to modern medicine to improve quality of life.

9. should I consider participating in a clinical trial?

New therapies to fight cancer have been popping up recently, and there are thousands of cancer clinical trials underway right now. But not everyone needs them, and not everyone is right for them. In many cases, using current standard therapies is a safer and more effective option.

If possible, it is valuable to know as much as possible about the advantages and disadvantages of relevant clinical trials. Even before the tumor shows signs of resistance or recurrence, knowing about subsequent novel therapies that may be involved can provide psychological comfort and encouragement to the patient and family.

10. do I need to seek another doctor's advice?

It may be a little awkward to ask this question directly to the primary care physician, but as cancer treatments are changing rapidly and becoming more complex, it is valuable to get a second opinion from an additional specialist.

In fact, more and more American and European patients, especially those with advanced disease, are consulting multiple doctors to get a relatively uniform treatment plan. More and more doctors, especially those who are confident, are beginning to support patients in this choice, both to reduce suspicion and as an opportunity for self-improvement and learning.

Wishing you all the best and a speedy recovery!

Criminal record query

In the United States, whether you are an American or a foreigner, as long as you have been arrested by the police, the photos and fingerprints will be submitted to the police database, which is established by the FBI. At the same time, the Bureau of Immigration, the Department of Homeland Security, and the State Council will network the database. The fact is that the FBI currently has a criminal record of 73.5 million people. The adult population of the United States is 249.4 million. That is to say, according to FBI data, 29.5% of adults have a criminal record.

FBI criminal record query entrance (only to check yourself).

In the United States, crimes are divided into misdemeanors and felonies. You can apply to revoke your criminal record for the first time you commit a misdemeanor. For example, for theft, you can apply for revoking your criminal record after three years and you have performed well during this period. After the criminal record is revoked, the person concerned can say that he has no criminal record in order to be a new person. However, if he commits a crime again in the future, he will still be counted as a criminal record, and the punishment will be increased.

All criminal records that require imprisonment cannot be revoked.

Delivery guy earns $7000 a month in the US?

In the United States, how much money can you make by delivering food? I posted a piece of news that a Nicaraguan person sent $7,000 to his family a month. Many people did not believe it.

I specifically called and asked the owner of a small Los Angeles restaurant. He hired one of his distant relatives to deliver food for a fixed salary of US$130 a day. Tips given by guests are not included. But you have to prepare your own car and gas money. Tips for a day are usually around US$90-120.

A Mexican guy works as a courier in DC. He is billed by piece and has a minimum wage of US$120 a day, which means he can get a minimum wage if he does not earn 120. He told me that his daily income, document fees, and tips, were $385 a day.

It's normal to make $7,000, but it's really a year-round, black and white. Take the order when you open your eyes.

To open a member in India, you only need to use your Indian IP address when you open it. After you open it, you can switch back to your own country's IP, which is very convenient.

The following answers some common questions.

1. Even if you settle Premium membership by the Indian payment method, the account area may still be the United States, Australia, or other regions.

2. Payment does not need to use a credit card issued in India, Visa or Mastercard issued in any country will do.

3. You can also use existing members in your own country to open Premium in India.

4. It doesn't matter if you don't have an Indian node. The author found a VPN. The platform provides an Indian node. If you register, you will get free 200Mb traffic. For the premium payment process, the free traffic provided is completely enough.

First of all, they all use your own account, the family group is not a shared account, but you join a family group member! Individual membership means that one person enjoys membership services without regional restrictions. Family group members are shared membership services for several people, and there are regional restrictions (the administrator needs to use the Indian node when opening the family plan and accepting invitations for family members).

7. What should I do if the area of ​​the friend account is different from that of the administrator account? According to Google’s official support document, in theory, the region can be changed by modifying the payment information, and it can only be changed once a year.

Chain migration

Is it feasible to stay in the United States illegally for a long time and wait until the Anchor baby is 21 years old to apply for a green card to his parents?

This depends on how to enter the United States. If you enter the U.S. legally, you can find the entry records.

If you enter the United States illegally, such as illegally entering the country, your application will be rejected.

Art of fraud

Now crooks have a very clever trick: the victim recommendation method. I said at the beginning that xxx is a liar and I was cheated on. Fortunately, xxx helped me behind. The whole process of being deceived and helped is vividly depicted. Then release the contact information.

Barbarism in modern society

The actions of an American barbarian who has no sense of modern civilization:

There is an illegal immigrant from South America. I have forgotten the specific country. I have been targeted by ICE and issued a deportation order. He will be deported from the United States soon.

But his country is the kind of asshole country Trump said, and he doesn't want to go back even if he died. So, one morning, he deliberately killed a Chinese man in his 70s who was running in the morning. Then waited at the scene for the police to arrest him. He personally admitted in court that the killing was done to obtain a sentence and then stay in the United States without being deported.

This happened in Los Angeles, 2019!

It's normal not to want to be deported back, but there is no need to kill someone. You can use a knife to rob a few convenience stores.

In a word, these savages without modern civilization consciousness don't take the lives of strangers at all!
