For frequent flyers going through the body image scanners a lot, the risk is too much radiation and cancer.Captain Dave Bates voiced the union’s concerns in a letter published by The Atlantic late last week.Bates asks that members be aware “that there are ‘backscatter’ AIT devices now being deployed that produce ionizing radiation, which could be harmful to your health.â€The move follows the detention and suspension of an American pilot who refused to be scanned.Captain Bates suggests that pilots refrain from being put through the scanners and if necessary opt for a pat down by TSA officials instead.“We already experience significantly higher radiation exposure than most other occupations, and there is mounting evidence of higher-than-average cancer rates as a consequence.†Bates’ letter states.Earlier in the year, scientists warned that the machines constitute a potential health risk, noting that the radiation given off by the devices has been dangerously underestimated and could lead to an increased risk of skin cancer.Despite these fears, the blatant violation of privacy laws, and the consistent lies that the authorities have engaged in over capabilities of the machines, Janet Napolitano, head of the DHS, recently announced plans to expand the full-body scanner program even further.In the U.S., travelers can refuse the body scanner and opt for the pat down, however, this option is not offered by the TSA, rather the traveler must declare that they wish to “opt outâ€.A recent New York Times report describes the humiliating turn of events should airline passengers exercise this right, with individuals being singled out and prodded, probed and poked by TSA agents in front of everyone else queuing in the security lines.New pat down procedures have recently been instituted by the TSA, allowing agents to use their fingers and the palms of their hands to feel around breasts and genitalia.

One of the things we've talked about a lot recently with the members of the REIA around here is, if you limit yourself to one vertical and too narrow of a niche, you are going to miss out on being able to deploy capital and increase your assets.

I'm currently in the military and forward-deployed on a ship, so I won't be back for a couple more months... and in the meantime I'm trying to get as much done on the internet as I possibly can. 

I'll be coming home from deployment soon and then we'll finally be moving to Cleveland.

* Note: money and time are tight, we have a new born and my husband is active duty military and deploys in March...Any advise is much appreciated. 

I think you could deploy $1M worth of capital into a commercial investment faster than having to wait to find a number of single-family residential rentals (unless you bought a portfolio).

I've seen advertisements for Kent Clothier's Find Motivated Seller's and the "Pre Vacant House Goldmine Program", and am wondering if there is any reason to invest in a system to keep things moving while I get my marketing deployed.  

BP, I am getting ready to head home from deployment and I am going to move into my house that I bought while I was gone.

I've help deploy loads of servers, websites and all sorts of shenanigans across the interwebs.

This is a "school house" so we have fewer deployments with our tenants than you'd have.
