Signs you might be a terrorist

The TSA spend $1B in 2013 on 'behavioral detection'. Below a part of the list.

I don't have 'a bobbing adam's apple', perhaps that's the reason why I didn't have problems entering the US last summer. I expected to have a lot of delays, my daughter and me were making fun of it and agreed to not get impatient.

The reason? If I enter a festival, a themepark, a border, an airport et cetera here in Europe they always take me aside for a more thorough check. I once read an article on the rules here in the Netherlands. Security and police check people who act and look not like the mass. Conclusion: That's me!

This proofs also that different countries have different rules.

What Do You Think Your Country Does Best?

Architecture Across Europe

Beautiful video by Luke Shepard who travelled Europe and created 'Nightvision'.

"Nightvision is a celebration of the brilliance and diversity of architecture found across Europe. Over the course of three months I journeyed with a friend through 36 cities in 21 countries with the ambition of capturing some of the greatest European structures in a new and unique way. Comprised of thousands of carefully taken photographs, strung together and stabilized in post-production, Nightvision aims to inspire appreciation for these man-made landmarks."
