didn't know they were trying to set up the guest networks like that, but not surprised.  Two things with this:   1: when someone connects to the guest network, they now know there is a private network on the same IP range as what was pushed to them.  This reduces the amount of work any hacker needs to do to get into your junk   2: someone uses it to download kiddie porn or bomb, drug or other hit list materials and guess who gets a visit?  You do, because this happened on your network, YOU are responsible for the incident.  First thing that happens is that you get a visit by some nice people that will confiscate every computing device that is found or connected to the network when they visit (phones, tablets, computers - don't think they do TV's yet, but they may start now that they have built in browsing functionality).  Then you get a little piece of paper called an evidence ticket while they drive off with all your gear, and a few months later you may or may not ever see it again.   #2 is no joke, I've had to work on a child porn case (from the IT side) before and I have never seen so much stuff get confiscated... it basically turned into a "what did that guy touch?"  then the computers were taken from rooms in that building I didn't even know they were installed in.   ANYONE who shares out their network or doesn't encrypt it needs to stop, and learn how to encrypt it or have someone do it for them.  Be damned if I shared with my neighbors, much less a completely open hotspot.

  & once they make it through they will not come back because it shocks them the same if they try to come back in.

Love dogs, but if one attacks me or my family (dogs included) that will be the last day that dog ever sees sunlight.  I would also have zero animosity towards the person if one of our dogs did that to someone and they did what they had to do.   People seem to forget that even though dogs are great to have and mostly obedient and loyal, they are animals and if that switch flips in their head, there is very little you can do to stop it.

Not fond of the trickle chargers.   Just use the 4amp setting on the charger you have and it will be fine, those issues about charging it too fast are for situations where like when someone hooks a 20 amp+ quick/jump start setting on a new battery.

Wish I had enough bank to buy a demilled M1A1, never cared much for the older tanks.

The only time I would buy a bike with no title is if it was a track bike, it's not a big issue if that's what you are buying it for.  However, if the VIN was altered or missing, that's a no-go no matter what.   If this was a $50k collectors bike that was really old, then it may be worth looking into further, but those don't get sold on craigslist.

I think most of us would much rather live next to someone that knows how to run a tractor and pull a trigger than one who puts their grocery shopping lists in APA 6th ed. format.   I say we try and work our way up to #1 on that list by 2016.

    Same thing happened at chipotle now, two douches decided they would "exercise their 2a right" just like all the starbucks douches and viola, chipotle is now gun free.   I'd like to line them all up and open hand slap them one by one... Hell, if they truly believed in exercising their rights and felt this was the way you done it, then it should be mandatory that they start with the 1a by going up to a cop and saying "hey, I'm gonna take your sidearm and hurt you with it".  This way the issue could be addressed before they make it to exercising their 2a.

Can't believe that place is still in business, their food is nasty

  Use the same ones in my garage, they have yet to fail me.

used to run between 20-30 miles per week, that was probably the most difficult thing about the accident... going from avid runner to barely walking.

And now those hippies with electric cars don't look so stupid

Maybe if his sign was more polite, the thugs would've obeyed the request.

    Must be a rash of that going around, I had a family of stick people on the back window and this morning my car was littered with fast food wrappers

The way insurance works is through negotiated or contract pricing. Currently if an in network provider and the insurance company have a negotiated or allowed price of $100 for procedure abc123, then the doctor can only charge the patient $100 for procedure abc123. This effectively puts everyone into a market the way that out of network providers and the insurance company works, so that when you run over that allowed cost, you are personally responsible. So it is actually nothing like what the in-network system operates like. The reference pricing allowance differences will also not count towards your deductibles or your catastrophic limits, just as any personally incurred out of network differences currently do not either. To specify on the plan allowance charges and actuals, that is between the hospital and insurer, they negotiate the fees and for that negotiation, they in return get more business from members of that insurance group... But the thing about that is they have an opportunity to negotiate, reference pricing allows the insurance company to override that negotiation and the loss will now be passed to us as consumers instead of it being negated via the set pricing of an in network provider agreement. If you think this will have little to no impact on our out of pocket health care expenses, you'll be in for a big surprise if you end up at the ER like me and need $190,000 worth of medical care the first 24 hours and the reference price on your insurance for those procedures ends up being $95,000 total. Even though the hospital is in network

http://www.northjersey.com/opinion/opinion-editorials/reference-pricing-1.1018817   Looks like now our insurers (including the people who have been forced into ACA exchange plans) can limit how much they will pay for a procedure.  example:   Need a new hip implant like me and want it done at Vanderbilt or St Thomas and they charge $50,000 to do it, well my insurance can now say they limit hip replacements to $30,000 and I can either go to some brothel, or hospital in the backwoods of Kentucky and get it done with budget parts for $30k, or I can get it done somewhere good and I'm personally responsible for the amount over $30k, not counting towards the yearly catastrophic or copay amount.   When open season rolls around this year, you guys/gals better pay real close attention to this one.

Speaking of this dude, did you all see the MJ hologram last night at the music awards? Holy crap did that look good, technology has improved so much in that market... it was amazing. Now if they could do something like that for someone that actually mattered like Thomas Jefferson or someone cool, that would be even better.

  Except for the fact that you would go broke trying to prove a point, that is an awesome idea!  Next on the list is the disabled guy that picked up two pairs of scissors instead of one, and stuck the extra pair on the shelf next to the yogurt instead of placing it back on the scissor holder.   And just out of curiosity, if you owned a business and wanted to find out who read a magazine in the checkout isle and put it back instead of buying it, how exactly do you plan on tracking that person down from a single post on one of the internet's 985,000,000 active websites?

next time go hang them up in the ammo section on the case windows and listen in on the reactions lol

Approved or not, I bet that guy still has a system on his house.

    They're flexible rubber and the fingers have grit ratings as the abrasive material is embedded into them.  Jewelers use them all the time to polish stones with, so don't worry about using them too heavily on metal, most of the ones I use on feed ramps are at most a 60 grit - remember that you can't use pressure on them so a heavier grit is usually necessary than what you would expect.   100 grit is the absolute highest I would use on finishing anything with though, anything higher than that is just for jewelry

  Nah, I did this for a few years with the forest service.  embers can travel hundreds of yards in low wind and on grass... Californistan is so dry and with the wind coming off the ocean I would say that with the flash vegetation (very light and very dry) they have, embers could easily travel 1/2 mile maybe even to a mile in the right conditions and start a new fire.  It only takes one in the right spot to ignite a fuel source, so imagine thousands of them getting blown up against your house.... something will almost always get in.   Last time we were out there many moons ago, we ran into one house that the owner had investments in some company that was developing a foam protection system (sorry no clue what it was called), but it was basically a spray foam hooked up to a hose and he encapsulated the entire house with it.  Supposedly it washed off with water, and his house was the only one on that side of the street that was still standing so it definitely worked.

Agree with Luke, I installed a flex shaft on mine about 7 years ago and it has never been removed.   Two things I would personally recommend and I burn through a lot of these:   3m bristle discs ( I use them on everything from a 3/4" dremel attachment to a 6" wheel on a grinder cause they are awesome)    http://solutions.3m.com/wps/portal/3M/en_US/Marine/Home/Products/Catalog/?PC_Z7_RJH9U5230GE3E02LECIE20S4K7000000_nid=1V4RW4V6P8beRJ5GMFSMV0gl   The bristle discs are great for polishing stuff, but try not to run them over 5000 rpm, then wear down and break off fast if you do.  These are much safer to use in polishing the machining marks on feed ramps than a stone or sand paper attachment.   second thing would be a sanding drum and disc kit (various shapes and grits).  the packs they sell at the box stores aren't any good, you can get cheaper ones online with cones, drums, discs etc.. 

    Hit it perfectly.   We recently bought a couple of asus netbooks to hook up directly to the TV's in our house, touch screen, 500gb, Windows 8 etc... and they serve much more of a useful purpose than our ipad does.  Only $249 as well.  The only down side is that this specific model (the cheapest we could find with HDMI outputs) has a 3 hour battery life.  That's less than half of what our ipad gets.
