Law enforcement agencies keep investigative information close - often down to the investigative team, doling it out in small packets on a strict 'need to know' basis (with the team judging who needs to know). This is a major block to effective intelligence work, but they are all paranoid about leaks, and well aware that higher-ups will leak for publicity, fellow officers jump on their turf and others are connected to the targets. The FBI follows this pattern. The CIA, as part of the intelligence community, does not trust law enforcement, for all these reasons, and shares on a selective need to know. It does cooperate with the rest of the intelligence community, at least on the gathering side (less so on operations).

They do run joint clearing centres, with wide access, but these again have issues with dissemination. Basically, there's no single standard for clearance, little coordination and a lot of mutual mistrust.

Most locking systems in hotel rooms such as KABA are Ving don't communicate with the front desk unit.

The actual door locks themselves have their address programed into them as well as the current time.

When the receptionist cuts a new key as soon as it's used in the lock it invalidates the previous key unless it's a master key used by staff or an emergency key used by security; they're permanently valid unless the cards are accidently wiped or there's a security breach such as a master key stolen (in which case a new set of master keys is issued).

The new key has its expiry date programmed into it. Once the clock in the lock exceeds the time programmed into the key card then the lock won't work anymore.

Besides, if you repainted everything Greek to the colors they actually were, your eyes would bleed. I imagine ancient Greece was less Houses of the Holy and more my nephew with a box of crayons and no supervision.

Which invasive methods are you asking about?

why I (F) actually don't mind condoms at all :) but my partner (M) definitely does!

having to think about it "in the moment". Stopping "the action" to put on a condom (plus, of course, making sure you have some! shopping, storing, bringing with you if you aren't home, etc)

When someone is on hormonal contraception, or has an IUD, or some kind of permanent contraception (vasectomy, tubal ligation) -- never have to think about it. Just... go with the flow in the moment :) no barriers, no stopping, no thinking about it.

The more invasive methods are more reliable, even when compared to perfect use of the less invasive methods.

Condoms are less cleaup afterwards, less hassle.

Nearly every giant company has some degree of this among its own departments and divisions. The US government is like a super-giant company.

This stove piping of information also benefits government contractors offering solutions. They take advantage of this non sharing of information and sell and develop products for each agency, when the government already paid for the products once before.

Stove piping information can be to maintain control and make sure your program is funded. To remain relevant, these agencies are run by people who also have a self serving interest, as well as most being patriots. They want to be the Patriot in charge.

There are actually roman arenas that are still in use. The Nimes and Pula arena both host music shows. You even have live dvds by Metallica and Rammstein from the Nimes arena. Its pretty awesome.

This. A lot of artists outrage in public, and some of them are genuine, but most of them profit from this scam, so they profit without being the bad guy.

Nope, they didn't exist for the entire time. Greece was missing from the map for centuries; at first, it was a part of the Eastern Roman Empire (though a core part), then a part of the Ottoman Empire (an oppressed colony). Italy was split into disparate city states for the entirety of the Middle Ages and Renaissance. The city of Rome was held by the powerful Papal State (a much larger predecessor to modern day Vatican), but it was not interested in preserving "pagan" monuments (the same could be said about the Eastern Roman Empire).

You forget they are also Sirius satellite radio and pandora.

If you refuse to preform for them they'll take you off air and make sure you're essentially forgotten.

We've shifted away from restoration, which was more popular in previous eras, to preservation.

Not sure why? Ever heard of showers, wcs, etc? I addmitedly attend smaller festivals (tens of thousands not hundreds) but they are just so plush... High quality food, great music, open air, people. And at night I go to sleep in my hotel to come back fresh and relaxed next morning.
