I dont think anyone is saying that iran offensive capabilities have been quashed, nor can that assessment be iron clad - the decisive point has not been reached as the US/Israel/others are still undertaking offensive operations. Importantly, the US/Israel/others have decided that they can now...

Sure, individual circumstances might make staying put making sense and I understand Emotional connections is a double edge sword. It can impose further costs and cause significant friction even with staying put. My point is that downsizing should not be off the table. There is a limited one...

Except the BUK missile is a short range missile maybe 50km. Iran's missiles/drones are standoff weapons against ground targets. Im not suggesting Iran would shoot down aircraft in -flight. Rather it is just aiming at airports possibly according to GPS targeting data. My issue with the ABC piece...

Assuming that Iran's radar systems are severely degraded as reported, how would Iran even confirm the position of the aircraft in-flight. Perhaps they are using Flightradar24?

I dont see the point in living in a 2 storey 4 bedroom house when there are only 2 people in it. I accept lots of permutations where in some cases it makes sense. While the interest is discounted (currently 3.96%), it would be borrowing to pay for the upkeep of the house + insurance etc. +...

Some info re ESWL Main point though is that it is an elective procedure, not a procedure to relieve acute kidney stone pain

No guarantee. People with scan positive for stone 24hrs prior to Op can have nothing found at Op

Not uncommon

I hope you can still do the Silver Whisper next year

That is correct Nh providers can operate outside of any Govt subsidy. But they are fully privately funded. I would not be surprised some of the rooms at Greenwich place is occupied by OAP only. Likely the $1M rooms.

Im a big cagey about the 787 along the remote Southern ocean routes to South Africa or South America

IMO No need to disembark while refuelling Passengers often board while refuelling takes place and Ive been on aircraft during unexpected refuelling stops. But there must be operational procedures to ensure safety during refuelling - like non smoking signs on (which are generally permanently on...

Bear in mind also the aged care costs. Nursing home placements require an upfront refundable accomodation deposit exceeding $900K in some parts of Sydney these days plus some means tested additional costs. Ive discussed it elsewhere. I would not be surprised it will soon hit $1M. The refundable...

Depends - several factors Place of residence Other assets outside of pension/super/annuity Inflation and the value of money Domestic partner and their financial position Fixed costs - house insurance, house maintenance, private health insurance, car expenses. Another way to put it is whether the...

Not a replacement but placing a band/ring around the base of the valve Called a Mitral valve annuloplasty Possibly only need aspirin, might need stronger stuff for first 3-6 months.

Both public and private The public system just rations the number than can be done. While cost is important to the overall health system, treatment outcomes are actually more important. But the last question in my list is very important - sometimes these minimally invasive procedures are done...

2 types of treatment for mitral valve disease (whether stenosis or regurgitation) -Replacement -Repair Replacement is the replacement of the diseased valve with a pig or metal valve Repair is the repair if the diseased valve without replacing it Access to the mitral valve is via: (a) Open...

I've heard Saudi Arabia has sent security forces into Bahrain to quell pro Iran protest

Yes and maybe get a 747-400 fix if getting 747 cravings. Sometimes it goes west over China/Kazakhstan

Anyone considering JL/NH which operates via alaska and greenland into LHR?
