Roaming - a necessary evil for any user of the mobile. The analogy is quite simple, it prompted me to a friend in Facebook: everything looks like the cost of gasoline for cars. In Russia, one liter of fuel is worth the money in Europe - a very different. But the differences are not very dramatic. Since roaming is much cooler - it's as if the house you paid for a liter of fuel a dollar, and in Europe - a hundred. Moreover, the quality of gasoline does not change, filling, too, like the same.
Of course, this all troubled. Moreover, the Russian authorities with a lazy attempt to even build, and to persuade the Russian telecom operators to do something with this problem.
Of course, the price of roaming is always significantly higher than Russian. And, when it comes to the CIS countries, the lowest prices on telecom services will be the case if your phone is registered and will work on the network belonging to ... For example, Ukraine is a subsidiary of MTS and Beeline, in Kazakhstan - Beeline, and m. Dr.. Incidentally, the subsidiaries have MegaFon except in Tajikistan, not - hence, a price tag you should take a very careful. To avoid confusion, as I said, we are talking about using your normal SIM card. Not local, not tourist, and it is your.
If you love to connect various traffic packages (packages of SMS, minutes, data traffic ), in roaming about this can be forgotten at once: they're not acting. Likewise - there are, but for other prices, and they must be connected separately. Here, incidentally, is a very interesting point, virtually guaranteeing the subscriber ... For the tariff modifier, which makes it possible to reduce the cost of incoming calls, you have to pay twice - for the connection (well, this is understandable ) and the monthly fee for each day of use.
Moreover, often the service is unlimited in duration - works not yet disabled. Against this can seriously burn - there are such services up to 600 rubles. per month. But after a few trips to remember that all modifiers must be individually disabled. Do not cut off - mobile expense essentially ...
And because the operator does not offer after his return to ...
In my experience, I note that it is necessary to look carefully the conditions of tariff concessions in roaming - often they only apply to work in a network and a very specific operator. Arranged for someone from the ... And in a country that often, operators 4.3. Connected poor man, a subscriber who can not read the fine print in advertising, not to the operator to automatically select the network - pay more.
It is very costly item of expenditure - data- traffic. Even if you're not an avid Internet users, and does not hang in the social networks around the clock, on arrival home, you can pass out of the roaming costs. Especially if your tariff - postpaid and you do not know how to control their costs in real-time.
Sometimes this is because the cost of each megabyte, ... Typical rates for mobile modems - 1-3 rubles. For ... per megabyte of information.
Abroad, the minimum rate that would have introduced a ... per megabyte (and even then only for 19 countries, all the rest is still ) and now have to pay up to 750 rubles. for ... Moreover, the most unpleasant - it is rounded to 100 kb. Asked the network to MMSku or read e-mail - just give 02.03 USD. Even if in fact received only 5-10 KB of data.
By the way, ... The offer is a certain period and what will happen next is unknown.
And spending limits on this service for overseas voyages to establish a realistic. Well, at least at the MTS is possible through personal study prohibit a GPRS-roaming - it helps even if ...
By the way, we must carefully watch over their GPRS-Internet settings - sometimes they are confused and in the subscriber network goes via WAP. Where charging is a hundred times more - it's not a joke.
What other trouble waiting for you in roaming? .
If you are a user of the credit, you can not just fall off ... Roaming accounts often come with a delay - you can surprise write-offs in 3-4 days after returning home: the operator is not stealing money, and accounts from foreign partners ... Also - the lack of per second billing for voice calls, increased time in the SIM-card is connected to a subscriber who has been blocked for lack of funds (pre-paid tariffs), as well as banal. lack of communication. Well forget your service contract with a local ISP connection - this is still happening. Oh, I almost forgot, SMS-messages are also very expensive - a minimum of 15 rubles for each message.
So be careful when abroad, or return home you can expect a very unpleasant surprise in the form of an astronomical bill for Us.

The story about the dangers of roaming

Pantheon of the brain
The Pantheon in religion - it is all the gods of this religion, the pantheon of Soviet science - is the brains of all the outstanding Soviet people. It all began with the death of Lenin. An autopsy revealed severe destruction of brain tissue caused by hardening of the walls of cerebral vessels. Before science upright task was to explain how the disease may be associated with unexplained genius leader? .
... F. Razvedenkov Melnikov, one of the largest Soviet pathologists - the discrepancy between them was: disembodied spirit could not bear stress. The brain was the victor, but the service, ancillary connective tissue in it was untenable, from lipoid degeneration, multiple sclerosis, calcification, fragility, narrowing of blood vessels, - softening and hemorrhage in the brain, and m. Dr.. ... E. Zinoviev).
For example, in 1924 the laboratory to study Lenin's brain under the direction of a major German neurologist, director of the Berlin Institute for Brain, Professor Oscar Fogg. Before you set a task to find a laboratory in the brain of the physical evidence of his genius. They worked so well that in 1928 the laboratory reorganize the State Institute of the brain ( GIM ), which was to find ...
Soviet science in the early twentieth century in general was very well developed. Scientists have talked about the quick victory over the bed ( the builder of communism do not need sleep ), the transformation of the Soviet Union into a single family, by blood transfusion from the old party members the younger generation (experiments A scientist. A. Bogdanov ), the achievement of immortality and revival of corpses. In this atmosphere, the proposal of Academician. M. Bekhterev's Pantheon of the brain to develop outstanding people of the Soviet Union did not look like something impossible. Especially when you consider that a genius to find the material needed experimental material: ... the mysterious Sphinx, which is called genius. Science genius and talent, named evrology already outlines the ways to study the anatomical basis of genius and talent - so far only based on the extracted material by accident ... ).
It is not known whether the scientific arguments had an effect on the power or the fact that Bekhterev proposed the creation of the Pantheon to the tenth anniversary of the USSR, but soon the removal of brilliant brains put on stream.
The Institute brain using makrotoma - gilyatinopodobnoy special machine - cut into chunks. Then they rolled in formalin, in alcohol, and finally embedded in paraffin. But then again, a more precise cut machine - microtome - on thin slices of thickness about 20 microns. Only after such preparatory work got a brain under the microscope.
All the necessary instruments of macro-and microtome, microscopes and darkroom were made on the project Fogg in Germany. The Soviet and German scientists in general were a lot of common interests, which cost only established by the same Fogg in the late 20s in Moscow, the Russian- German Laboratory race ( geographic) pathology.
The institute compared its main exhibit, Lenin's brain, the brain of ... Then, when the advanced artifacts, compared with the brains of Kuibyshev, Lunacharsky, Menzhinsky, Bogdanova, Michurina Mayakovsky. The conclusion was unambiguous: Lenin's brain was different from all the ... But such a comparison brain was only the most harmless of all the experiments that led scientists across the country.
Once replaced the ideology of religion, the idea of man as a soul- body tandem in the minds of people and, above all, scientists turned to the brain -body. And it became very tempting to solve any human problem with a scalpel.
Traditionally, animal experiments have begun to. Found that the rat is removed from the hemispheres of the brain does not have any common needs, but if it is not artificially fed, then a few days later she died of starvation. But deprived of the cerebral hemispheres begin pigeon greatly increased in weight (with the same diet ). A surgically chickens given even greater weight gain. Then it turned out that the birds with a remote cord, if you stop feeding them die of hunger much later neprooperirovannyh.
Who knows what were going to use this data to create a new Soviet man, but the Second World War, and the close cooperation of German and Soviet scientists ended. In the USSR, all experiments on the brain, previously widely publicized in the press, classified, and in Germany were former colleagues for their experiments, millions of concentration camp prisoners, which they used to identify human sverhvozmozhnostey.
After the victory over fascism, the Allies divided the spoils. U.S. got all rocket and engineering of German scientists, and the USSR - the archives of psychophysical studies. Sadly, almost all of their discovery, paid hundreds of thousands of people tortured to death under torture, almost repeating what has been known since the days of ancient India. These are the opening as: ... They found that if a person learns to control his spirit, it may enter into such a state of mind, when he was an operation without anesthesia can be done. Pain will not be. In light of this conclusion is that physical reality is nothing more than an illusion of mind, it seems more logical. To this the Nazis added their ideological pump that the only reality is their empire, but they - the people, rather, supermen and the rest - biological objects, that good and evil exist only in the minds of these biological objects, etc..
Human consciousness is fraught with enormous opportunities, but if we discard cherished religions for thousands of years, the concept of morality, these features can easily turn into evil. Conversely, in the same Indian yoga came to the high knowledge, not causing anyone any harm. Some of them even considered killing the insect bad thing.
In today's world, there are the heirs of these two opposing concepts of the development of human consciousness. NLP ( neurolinguistic programming) as well as psycho- used in spetsvoyskah, the legacy of the founders of supermen of the Third Reich. And the Chinese, Indian and other schools of spiritual and physical perfection has its origins from ancient civilizations.

Come all of you in the bath or for that search engines banyat sites
Google bans. And strictly bans. Getting out of the ban is almost impossible. But hit it hard. The simplest way to ban a website, it's spam. Prospamte your site by email or xrumer Forums and a relatively short period of time will receive a hard ban. Another option - dory, though it is also a spam. At the time, so the site was banned BMW's German unit.
With all the easier by Yandex. At the same time more difficult. Yandex bans for much. But Yandex has two options in the absence of an index: the index and not in the stupid ban. The difference in resolution addurilki (' Your site is banned for indexing '). Ban in Yandex, IMHO, is superimposed by the moderator. In contrast, sites disappear from the index automatically and can be forcibly returned by the moderator. Ban obtained as spam. Or because they do not like. For example, I have 17 domains in the hard- bath. For what? . From other sites do not differ commonplace. And there, and there glanders - ksapa. IMHO, the hand of a moderator.
But the list of common reasons for getting banned. Studied, tested and built in the rule.
- Poor response to. Crappy hosting script that slows down and hangs himself, codes of exchanges in the t. h. sap, mercilessly inhibitory server. All of this may cause nedoobhoda Yandex bot. He stsuko, patience is no different, in contrast to Google's bot.
How to avoid? .
- Neunik. Previously, everything was ok, but with the introduction of Magadan Yandex declared war kopipast. Of course, the server can not throw Yashka kopipastnoe all, but a fresh copy-paste flies to hell. Yes, and old - sometimes too.
How to avoid? . Either the author is expensive - it is recommended for corporate and complex sites. Either cheap sinonimayzerom - for satellites.
- A littered external links. Disputed cause of. But the unreasonable storage options can lead to abuse of the ' well-wishers ... But in general, punitive measures are not seen. Another thing is that the donor site clearly with time filter is applied to key phrases, which imposes difficulties associated with the breeding of this site is.
How to avoid? . Although if the site does not require the withdrawal of the top - you do not care.
- Relink sites. myth. Relink sites are not banyatsya. Another thing is that if one site gets a relink of the ban, the other, most likely, too, will fall under the sanctions. But for this it is necessary that at least one at fault! . If you found a black sheep, expect problems in the herd. If all the little white, then nothing will happen to the rest of the.
- abuse. people are petty. And fill up the competitor's site - holy cause. It is necessary to make a slip in the little things, and your whole network will compete in the heat of the support Search Engine.
How to avoid? . All that you can, it's the time to hide your network from competitors based on their stupidity. The second thing that you can evaluate the extent of the problems are and solve - how you want the gray methods.
Now about the myths.
1) I'm sorry engine. no. Blame the hands of the curves. Search engines do not care about the engine. Thousands of them, the sickle - a! .
2) I'm sorry the site design. Do Androids Dream of Electric? . A moderator would have gone crazy if it were all the new sites.
3) The validity of the code. I do not know of sites where the validity of the code gave some tangible benefits. Another thing is that subjectively sites where chunks of text are related in meaning, are next to be higher in the crescent. So you just watch how this layout will give. At the same code PS do not care. They cut him anyway.
4) I have to manually banyat. Here the answer is one: self-esteem nihuyase. I have a site that has over 100 uniques a day, but absent in Yandex. Why not? . ru. He is not in Yandex. But it is in Google. Who attributed this to the grounds of the engine - break off. Just ofsayta Satkha have a hundred copies at once. After a complete copy of its distribution. So I attribute neindeks - Yandex only one thing - excessive rastirazhirovannosti texts.
In general, my opinion, banks should not be confused. I saw a poster with the ban in Google, but the great gathering his harvest in Yandex and Rambler. I have seen the Yandex website in the bath, but making charges on Google. Thank God, not a system in Russia. And even without a search, you can get traffic.
So rivet sites and monitor its index. No Yandex - focus on Google, and gather the harvest with Adsense. There Yandex - set glanders and rowing money even with this.
beauty.
This year I have extended the 17 banned domains. Profits from each year from 70 to 100 bucks. Extension - 4. Benefit count yourself. I shed a tear after counting. But there is also the context of his bringing a penny!.
