![]() ![]() “For the Love of Money” was released by The O’Jays as a single in 1973, from their album Ship Ahoy. ‘He can rely on the old man’s money / he can rely on the old man’s money / he’s a rich guy.’ I thought that didn’t sound right, so I changed it to ‘Rich Girl.’ He knows the song was written about him.” The O’Jays – For the Love of Money I said, ‘This guy is out of his mind, but he doesn’t have to worry about it because his father’s gonna bail him out of any problems he gets in.’ So I sat down and wrote that chorus. I think he was involved with some kind of a fast-food chain. He came to our apartment, and he was acting sort of strange. “‘Rich Girl’ was written about an old boyfriend of Sara ’s from college that she was still friends with at the time,” Hall told American Songwriter. Originally believed to be inspired by heiress Patty Hearst, Daryl Hall actually wrote it about a wealthy ex-boyfriend of his then-girlfriend, Sara Allen. While “Rich Girl” became the first No.1 single for duo Hall and Oates in 1977, the song isn’t about a girl at all. They performed it live together at Live Aid in July 1985, with the song topping Billboard’s Hot 100 for three weeks.Ĭlick to load video Hall and Oates – Rich Girl What many might not know, is that Sting also provided backing vocals on the track. ![]() “Money for Nothing” by British rock band Dire Straits was written about two men who are giving commentary on music videos they watch.

Originally released in 1978 by rock band The Brains, Cyndi Lauper recorded the song “Money Changes Everything” for her debut album, She’s So Unusual, in 1983. The song was also used in a February 2021 Super Bowl ad, which sent it to No.1 on Billboard’s Dance/Electronic Digital Songs chart. Pet Shop Boys – Opportunities (Let’s Make Lots of Money)Ī single in 1985 from their debut album, Please, Pet Shop Boys’ “Opportunities (Let’s Make Lots of Money)” is told from the perspective of a man who is trying to convince another person to join a financial scheme. The UK single artwork features the face of band member Angus Young on a currency bill, which were later dubbed “Angus Bucks” and dropped on audiences at live shows. It was the group’s biggest hit since 1981’s “Back in Black” and remains their highest charting song to date. “Moneytalks” by rock band AC/DC was released as a single in December 1990.

Now, to read a 2 kilobytes of TEXT, I have to load 5 megabytes or more of cumbersome web pages graphics and ads when all I care about is the 2 kilobytes of text that actually compromises a typical news article, for example. I remember loading them on 56kbps modem in the 1990s. Only after it came into general use were sites magically able to detect you are using an ad blocker. What good is an ad blocker that only gets you locked out of perhaps 70% of all Internet sites you want to visit? I believe HTML5 is directly responsible. More and more sites are incorporating code that disables the site entirely or many of the features if an adblocker is in use. Kep55 said:I'm waiting for an ad blocker that will spoof the websites into thinking there is no ad blocker in place. Do you feel comfortable keeping ad revenue out of the hands of sites you enjoy and use for free?

Others, like AdBlocker Ultimate, take a more aggressive approach. Some ad blockers, such as AdBlock Plus include filters and the ability to let in non-obtrusive advertising. Do you just want to stop annoying pop-up ads from appearing or do you want the full range of services, including privacy features and an end to ad-tracking? Grab the ad blocker that ticks off all the boxes on your wishlist. You can narrow down your choice in ad blockers by deciding specifically what you're looking to accomplish with such an app or extension. You should also figure out if a browser extension will take care of your ad-blocking needs or whether you should consider switching browsers to one with more built-in privacy features. Determine if the free services provide enough ad-blocking to meet your needs or whether a paid app delivers more for your money. Many of the best ad blockers are available for free, either as extensions or as standalone apps, though a few, like AdLock, charge a fee.

Use of the term kathoey suggests that the person self-identifies as a type of male, in contrast to sao praphet song (which, like "trans woman", suggests a "female" ( sao) identity), and in contrast to phet thi sam ('third sex'). Because of this confusion in translation, the English translation of kathoey is usually 'ladyboy' (or variants of the term). Before the 1960s, the use of kathoey included anyone who deviated from the dominant sexual norms. As well as transgender people, the term can refer to gay men, and was originally used to refer to intersex people. General description Īlthough kathoey is often translated as ' transgender woman' in English, this term is not correct in Thailand. It is most often rendered as ladyboy in English conversation, an expression that has become popular across Southeast Asia. The word kathoey is of Khmer ខ្ទើយ khteuy. Related phrases include phet thi sam ( เพศที่สาม, 'third sex'), and sao praphet song or phu ying praphet song ( สาวประเภทสอง, ผู้หญิงประเภทสอง-both meaning 'second-type female'). Terminology Ī study of 195 Thai transgender women found that most of the participants referred to themselves as phuying ( ผู้หญิง 'women'), with a minority referring to themselves as phuying praphet song ('second kind of woman') and very few referring to themselves as kathoey. The text refers to "malicious" women being punished in the "four hells" and being reincarnated as kathoey. Its usage dates back to a 19th-century interpretation of the Chbab Srey, a Cambodian text written around 1800. The term "kathoey" is used to refer to transgender women or the "third sex". He observed that there were many " catamites", or pubescent boys in pederast relationships, who tried to lure Chinese men with the promise of sumptuous gifts. ![]() This is mentioned in an account by a Chinese observer named Zhou Daguan who visited the Angkor Wat area of Cambodia in 1296–1297. ![]() History Īccording to historical accounts, the presence of young Khmer men dressed in women's clothing and seeking sexual exchanges dates back over 700 years. In the face of the many sociopolitical obstacles that kathoeys navigate in Thailand, kathoey activism has led to constitutional protection from unjust gender discrimination as of January 2015, but a separate third gender category has not yet been legally recognized. A significant number of Thai people perceive kathoey as belonging to a separate sex, including some transgender women themselves. Transgender women in Thailand mostly use terms other than kathoey when referring to themselves, such as phuying (Thai: ผู้หญิง, 'woman'). ![]() These people are not traditionally transgender, however are seen as a third sex, being one body containing two souls. Kathoey or katoey ( Khmer: ខ្ទើយ khtəəy, Lao: ກະເທີຍ ka thœ̄i, Thai: กะเทย RTGS: kathoei Thai pronunciation: ) is an identity used by some people in Cambodia, Laos and Thailand, whose identities in English may be best described as transgender women in some cases, or effeminate gay men in other cases. Nong Tum is perhaps the most internationally recognised kathoey for her portrayal in the film Beautiful Boxer. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() #4, even though the term "duty free" is used this is not about customs, it's about airport security. That's pretty standard stuff and has been for years - next time make sure you educate yourself on the import rules for your destination country and you should have no issues going forward. Thus for your fIight from BOS to DCA, you should have repacked your purchases into your checked luggage, since they did not comply with the liquids rule for carry on within the US. There is no concept of duty free on a domestic fIight - it only applies to international connections while you are in transit. Once you have passed Customs (and presumably paid any required duty) then the duty free item becomes like a regular item, subject to the normal rules of travel within that country. However there is (potentially) a duty owed at your final destination country, which is why you are required to declare things at Customs. This allows you to carry those items through the transit airport (and onto your departing fIight) without having to declare them. That's the purpose of the STEB - it is visual evidence that you complied with the requirements. So if you are traveling A > B > C and do not officially enter B (just remain airside in transit), then there is no duty owed on duty free purchases from A, since you do not plan to consume or use those items while transiting B. ![]() with no intent to enter) then there is no duty on items that you purchased elsewhere and are transporting to your final destination. The idea is that if you are traveling internationally and passing through a country "in transit" (i.e. Murblelala I think maybe you do not understand the purpose of "duty free". Given the TSA's vague requirements, I do agree that attempting this will often lead to denial. We recommend packing all liquids, gels, and aerosols that are over 3.4 oz or 100 ml in your checked baggage, even if they are in a secure, tamper-evident bag."īased on TSA's above-listed requirements, I did not understand why I could not take my items as a carry on, unless they were "unable to be screened"? However, I still find the terminology extremely vague, as I suppose the TSA intended. The items inside the secure, tamper-evident bags must be screened and cleared.Īny item that alarms or is unable to be screened will not be permitted in your carry-on bag. The original receipt for the liquids is present and the purchase was made within 48 hours. The liquids are packed in a transparent, secure, tamper-evident bag by the retailer and do not show signs of tampering when presented to TSA for screening. The duty free liquids were purchased internationally and you are traveling to the United States with a connecting flight. You may carry duty free liquids in secure, tamper–evident bags, more than 3.4 oz or 100 ml in your carry-on bag if: "Your duty free MUST be placed in your checked bags to allow you to go through TSA screening to get to your connecting flight after arriving in the US"Īccording to the TSA website (.), the above statement is not correct. Does anyone understand the TSA's explanation for the above-referenced events? Is the passenger supposed to direct the Duty Free shop exactly how to package the items? If so, what would be the directions to give to the shop? I understand that the TSA can deny any carry on at their discretion, but the TSA agents did not indicate that they were concerned in any way about the contents of the bag.īy the way, I give great kudos to Jet Blue Airlines, who allowed me to check just the sealed Duty Free bag without charging me for checked luggage. I am most concerned because I do not know how to prevent this in the future if I do not have any checked luggage, or if the Duty Free liquid is something I prefer not to place in checked luggage. Upon transfer from flight arrival in BOS to connecting flight to DCA, I attempted to pass through security with the bag as a carry on but was denied on the basis that the TSA would be "unable to test" the contents of the sealed bag. The shop placed them, along with the receipt, in a clear plastic, tamper-evident sealed bag. ![]() I purchased two clear plastic tubs of hummus, each about 500 ml, from a Duty Free Shop at TLV. I am confused because TSA did not allow me to carry on a sealed bag of Duty Free liquids for a connecting flight. ![]() ![]() ![]() Be careful, every beat down you finish will cause two more heavily armoured guys to turn up and assist him.

Reminder: The very best reef-friendly sunblock if you’re in the water is clothing, according to many experts. This is considered safer for marine life because the larger size is less likely to affect their systems. In other words, the particles of this ingredient are each 100 nanometers or more. Stream2Sea states this sunblock uses non-nano titanium dioxide. Key features: This sunscreen doesn’t use any of the known active sunscreen ingredients that affect coral reefs and fish. This will vary for different people and circumstances, but it should generally be every 2 hours, especially after sweating or swimming.įrom there, it’s mostly up to personal preference: Do you prefer a tinted sunscreen, an option that’s tried and proven for sports, or a gentle sunscreen for babies and kids? The key is making sure to apply them the right way and at the right time. Sprays and sticks offer just as much sun protection as other types of sunscreen when applied correctly, as found through mandatory Food and Drug Administration (FDA) testing. ![]() Sunscreen sticks can be great for the face and eyes because they’re less greasy and heavy than a lotion, and you can target sensitive or hard-to-reach areas. As long as it has broad-spectrum (UVA and UVB) protection, an SPF of 30 or higher and water resistance, you’re good.įor example, lotions or creams are great for dry skin and applying to the whole body. The best sunscreen type is a matter of personal choice and depends on the body parts you’re protecting. The same goes for spray sunscreens, which are great for quick touchups on the go but must be applied correctly to be effective. These ingredients absorb UV rays before they seep into the skin.ĭermatologists recommend opting for sunscreen sticks and lotions with at least 30 SPF.
