Accident or not, this seems a very insensitive thing to say.

  I used to do this everyday until I lost it. I keep hoping I"ll find it. Now I'm carrying its bigger brother, the E2DL. When I have some spare change, I think I'll buy the EB1. It's the updated E1B, brighter (200 lumens).

  SWF files Flash files. They can be pretty tricky because they reference a lot of other files in the same local directory. If the thing is already hosted on a page, you should be able to link us all to that page and it be dandy.

My wife also says Cilantro is great for detoxifying heavy metal, which is good for me because I love the stuff and use it to supplement lettuce on sandwiches, etc!   [url="http://www.healthdiaries.com/eatthis/cilantro-chelation-therapy-heavy-metal-detox.html"]http://www.healthdiaries.com/eatthis/cilantro-chelation-therapy-heavy-metal-detox.html[/url]   Just a thought.

Dolomite, so I take it that over the next few weeks and months through your "cleanse" period, your lead levels should drop back to acceptable/normal with no major adverse longterm affects? Or is it too early to see?

Hahahahhaha http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/topic/48948-todays-rant-is-about/   Generally, I agree with you Caster. Some people just don't understand that they get too close to others. Unless you know someone or in other circumstances, what reason does anyone have to touch anyone else?

I'm now seeing reports that he recently stole a car and exchanged gunfire while fleeing? http://www.foxnews.com/us/2013/02/12/fugitive-ex-cop-exchanges-fire-with-authorities-ap-source-says/   Also says that he allegedly burglarized a cabin and tied up a couple.   Would have been an awakening and ironic end had the couple had a loaded AR-15 when he attempted to burglarize them.

  2+2=5?   Nevermind...watched the next five seconds and realized that the speaker also made the connection to Orwell.

I've always wondered...how exactly does one test a nuclear device underground? Also...what does testing a nuclear device underground do to the water supply?

I am looking for a gear bag that I can use to hold my carry pistol, magazines, flashlight/s, batteries, ammo, cleaning kit, holster/s, etc. Optimally, I'd like to hold 2 medium sized pistols + a holster for each, 5 magazines (each), and a mix of other accessories.    Made in USA = A++ here.   I found this, and think it meets the bill:   http://www.laruetactical.com/4-gun-transport-bag   Open to suggestions, and does anyone have any experience with the above bag?

How ironic that right after I found ths USFA Zip, someone would be selling one in Nashville!   http://www.gunlistings.org/tennessee-gun-classifieds/nashville/all/131500/usfa_zip_for_sale_nib   I think retail is, as stated above, $199. They feel they'll get $500 for one. You could do 1 Ruger Mark II/III and a lot of ammo or even to Ruger's. :)   I'd like to shoot one.

His manifesto bothers me. It makes me wonder what is truly motivating the madness.   /Operation Northwoods. /Fast & Furious     Simply saying that I see it as a possibility.   I mean he's a former LEO. He knows how to buy guns and how to buy suppressors. Yet he is painting a picture that virtually anyone can buy these things anonymously over the internet.  

I could be wrong, but I'm wondering if the price difference comes from the theory that SSDP's are less likely to have children? I think it is common knowledge that being unhealthy, for example smoking, raises your premium because you are more likely to get cancer and have other complications. I suppose statistically SSDP's are less likely to procreate (and much much less likely to procreate accidentally/unexpectedly). Sense they are less likely to procreate, they get cheaper insurance. Just like people that don't smoke get cheaper insurance. It astounded me how much more "maternity" coverage is for family insurance. Look it up. Perhaps the above for SSDP's doesn't include maternity insurance while family without SSDP does include maternity? At first it looks like discrimination. And although I'm not saying that it certainly appears discriminatory, I do think it calls for more investigation before everyone gets our their bullhorns.

  I've been doing that with not only medical insurance, but also car and rental insurance. I'm sure most people's gut reaction is to get the monthly premium to as cheap as possible. But then you quickly counteract that with acknowledging "Something like that actually could happen to me". At this point you realize you'd rather pay a few more bucks per month rather than face tens or even hundreds of thousands of bills. It is a very big decision. 

This reminds me of something. When I was a kid, I used to run around our property and the woods behind our property. I remember finding a "pit" of what was essentially gold (garbage). Some clothes hangers (metal), maybe a few tin cans, and a few bullets. I seem to remember that it was probably a .22lr. All of it was buried probably a few inches under the ground. In all honesty I thought it was a monumental find. It was probably someone's makeshift shooting hole a few decades ago.

  I was thinking the same thing. For the "hardened" criminal, the greater the number of years they spend in prison, they are probably more likely to "not make it" compared to someone wearing a button up shirt to the office every week. Also consider the fact that it is very difficult for a hardened criminal to adjust to an honest living (harder time finding work, prejudices, etc), and then that makes them repeat offenders. As they get more desperate, they sometimes take more chances, eventually coming to the end of their shortened life expectancy.   Heresy says that the average US inmate has a higher standard of living that the majority of 3rd world countries, thus I think it has more to do with lifestyle instead of the living situation (prison).

Do you think center-fire ammunition would have just as good of a chance of firing? I would imagine that, unless sealed, the way the primer sits in the brass could allow for moisture to seep in over the years?   :x: Why don't we have an accuracy report?

  Understood. 

  Meaning that essentially I can take my gross income, subtract $,4,320 that I pay for healthcare, and then be responsible for the taxes on gross income - $4,320?

  This is all something I'm familiar with. Unfortunately one of the major parts of the problem is that a lot of Americans do not take care of themselves. With government considering pizza a vegetable and junk food being subsidized to the point it is cheaper than quality, fresh food, you have a large part of society that cannot afford and doesn't care to eat healthy, doesn't care to exercise, and then expects to get free healthcare, well to put it lightly you have a very screwed up healthcare system. We have the best available healthcare in the world, but consumers aren't interested in taking steps such as living a healthier lifestyle to bring the overall cost of healthcare down. They'd rather just expect someone other than themselves to pay for their healthcare. It's depressing.

  This is the main reason I wonder and hope perhaps I can keep the same amount of coverage for my wife while reducing the monthly premium I pay. My company pays for me, so that is no issue. However, I feel that my wife is much healthier than the average health of the people of the company I work for. But I'd still have to factor in that currently it is paid for before taxes are taken out. Someone correct me if I am wrong, but 12x360=4320. Is that $4,320 income that I am not currently taxed on, or taxed at a lower rate? In that case, if I started paying for it out of pocket, that would be $54 more tax liability I'd have per month? So instead of beating the pricepoint of $360, it'd be more like the pricepoint of $306?

    I have no reason to dislike BCBS currently. The only real comparison shopping I am doing here is seeing if I can get my wife covered by BCBS with the same medical/dental benefits for cheaper than $360. I know I could save several hundred per month if I wanted to go cheap on the benefits, but I am not willing to do that. I am just checking to see if I could save a hundred or so and keep the same benifits. I seriously doubt it.

  Unfortunately I am not as familiar with healthcare as I am some other aspects of our world. I know Congress and the President rushed a huge bill through congress that not a single soul knew everything it consisted of. I haven't taken the time to research all of it because frankly it just infuriates me more. Without going into too many specific details, what is the gist of what will happen in 2014? Any good links to read?

  I have been. Been paying it ever since I started as a full-time employee. I won't be quick to make any decisions. I did contact TRH to see what they have to say. I have a feeling that in the grand scheme of things, $360 is probably a good amount to pay. I think I could certainly pay a whole lot less...for a whole lot less coverage. 

$360 is just for her. I understand about the different coverage rates and deductibles making the difference.     This sounds very interesting.    I'll definitely shop around, and to keep things simple I'll make the request to have them quote me with benefits being equal.
