I'm not renting, but I live in a house with mixed adobe, pentile (hollow ceramic block), and frame construction, some of it on a crawlspace and some on slab. So running Cat5 throughout is basically impossible. Unfortunately, the adobe tends to block WiFi signals. My solution, which covers *most* of the house, is an Airport Extreme with multiple Airport Express units using WDS to repeat the signal. It works pretty well *most* of the time.
Powerline would probably be a good solution, but if it's slower than WiFi it isn't worth the investment.
Does it still have that annoying double-redraw that turned me against buying either the Sony reader or the Kindle 1.0? I complained about it, and was told "that's just a characteristic of ePaper". To me it's a showstopper, it's so incredibly irritating.
I tried this with U.S. Cellular a couple years ago (I moved out of their service area, and they wouldn't let me out of my contract) and the FCC didn't back me up; I still had to pay.
Wasn't there a bill in Congress to eliminate early termination fees (or at least force carriers to pro-rate them)? What happened to that? (As if I had to ask -- I'm sure the lobbyists got their way.)
While I don't work there, I have friends and acquaintances who do. Their 9/80 schedule is optional, not mandatory (though once they choose it they pretty much have to stick with it).
I lived on the side of a mountain in rural southwest Virginia and got excellent DSL. Yet when I moved to Santa Fe, NM, I couldn't get it in the part of town I lived in.
You really can't get more specific than that. Just because you don't know what a Golomb ruler isn't doesn't make it a bad summary. A summary has to assume some understanding of the subject at hand.
However, for anything written (summary, abstract, article, etc.) the audience should be considered, and the appropriate degree of explanation presented.
Have you checked about geothermal radiant floor heating? With the abundant sunlight solar may be more economical but then again geothermal might be better.
We looked into geothermal, but it was prohibitively expensive -- the drilling alone would have been $20-25k (we don't have the land for horizontal trenches, so we'd have to drill vertical wells). Not to mention that the state tax credit for renewable energy don't (yet) include geothermal, and the federal credit didn't include it at the time (until it was just renewed & extended).
Here in New Mexico, we're getting ready to install solar water heating (for both domestic hot water and radiant floor/baseboard heat). We've estimated the ROI for our system at 12-15 years, including the federal and state tax credits, and conservatively assuming natural gas will continue to rise in price 20% per year.
I actually received my money back (Paypal called it a "reversal") by filing a dispute against a deadbeat eBay seller through Paypal. I was really surprised, since the one or two other times I've had disputes with sellers, Paypal ALWAYS ruled against me.
Hear hear! Paypal looks like a bank, acts like a bank, and quacks like a bank...therefore, it should be regulated like a bank, and held up to the same laws and legal scrutiny as any bank.

Oh, so it's like cmd plus ls overlayed on a BSOD!
New Mexico requires a license to bartend, though I don't know if they fingerprint for it.

My friends seem to like the Friday off.
Don't those Yamaha players still run on floppy disks (rather than CDs)?

Is it necessary to inform potential employers that you're bipolar? I don't see the need.
FWIW, I'm bipolar too. But my meds keep it completely under control.
You don't have to worry about the trigger pull, the weight of the
gun, the length of the gun or keeping the gun steady during recoil.
Not to mention the danger of injury or loss of life...
We have a similar problem in our house, which is a 1938 adobe (with 18" thick walls). Wireless signals have a hard time penetrating that!
I solved the problem by adding a few Airport Express devices (as repeaters) to our Airport network.
There's lots of good information on plug-in hybrids at this site: www.pluginpartners.com.
The going rate is $12-15 per foot. We'd need an estimated eight 200' wells.

ROFL! You, sir, owe me a new monitor & keyboard!
Mod parent up, please!

So if you rent a video from Hastings, and you decide you want to rent the same video a year later, the rental should be free? Interesting.
You haven't installed any OS or security updates in 2 years? I don't believe you.
