my ac units( 2 in my home) my hot water heater( 14 years+) furnace(over 20 years) toilet( 26+) ceiling fans( over 10 years) my truck is 8 years and will be used for 10.
i have never used a sansa or some of the others..I have owned 3 mp3 players + the current Ipod classic 80 gig i have. And I can say that you can have my IPOD when you PRY IT FROM MY COLD DEAD HAND! It is way better than any other media player I have used. I just wish they made an in dash model for the car and that Apple TV had a PVR function. And I ma not a mac fan boy. I use vista and ubuntu on my PC's. Although the Ipod has made me consider buying a mac. I have not owned and apple since the 2e.
>>oh and BTW, the windshield is necessary to allow a human driver to continue breathing at today's highway speeds. it's very hard to properly exhale at 50-60 mph.
tell that to bikers riding at 125 without helmets on every day..at 50 mph they arelikely smoking ciggs or doobies..lol
i use one of the new discount providers cricket mobile. For 45.00 per month i get unlimited anytime minutes + free internet. Another 35 a month gets me unlimited high speed internet to my laptop( there is a 1 time 50.00 hardware cost)
well when are you basing this study on? we have only had 2 democratic presidents in my life time. clinton and carter. The economy was pretty bad under carter. clinton had high economic growth BUT when adjusted for inflation it was NO where near what reagans was. Plus clinton had a democratic congress.
also the pres only has so much control over the economy. Our economy is global and cyclical. The way to see who had really done better would be to see how america comapared to itself AND the rest of the western world. If the world is in a recession and we have 3% growth that is better than if the rest of the world has 5%growth anwe we have 4%.
talk about a scam. I just figured it up. My ISP sold me a 10 mbps connection. that means if used at capacity i would use 108 times the rate cap proposed by my isp(time warner) in my area (beaumont texas) by just DLing at 10 MBPS for a mere 1 hour per day for 30 days. That is CRAZY!
granted i am not included in the rate cap( it is just for new customers) and if i was i would pay for a commercial connection( 100 a month not too bad, but you get fixed IP) and i have never gotten a DL speed any where NEAR the advertised rate( I have gotten up to 5.5 MBPS upload though) so i gues nothing to worry about!
si2 have inclusions visible under 10X or greater loops...i1 diamonds have inclusions visible to the naked eye. Si1 or si2 are the best practical deals.
i have always wondered about that. Lance HAD to be taking steriods. Not because he won, because he had testicular cancer. He would have been prescribed some sort of testo-replacement therapy.
accept you are confusing phsyics with biology. the caloric content of food is based on what the average person should be able to get from it. If the posters body can extract more of the energy from foods( or certain types of foods) than average he will get more energy than the caloric contents on the label. those are not based at 100% conversion to energy.
i had the pwer out for almost a day in a snow storm in dallas texas of all places...I did not however have a dog...luckily I had blankets and a girlfriend!
i have those annoying globe style vanity lites in my bathroom. It is a rental so i can not change it. Over 2 years i have replaced SOOO many of them, and they cost a bundle. This last time i tried CFL's. 6 months and no replacement. They cost about twice as much, so I am already ahead of the game. They do take a second to warm up though...but this does not bother me esp in the bath.
this is esp true when dealing with a victimn ro crime scene familiar to the accused. Look if my g/f or mom get car jacked and killed( God forbid) they are gonna find my DNA all over the place in the car. Why ? Because I have ridden in it 100's of times. What does this prove NOTHING!. If I am murdered they will find my friend's/family's DNA all over my house. Now if it is a stranger's DNA, that might mean something, but only if it is an exact match AND they had motive, oppertunity and some other physical evidence.
one of the key witnesses for the OJ trial, I forget his name, had said that DNA was a great tool for excluding suspects BUT not good enough to ID them. He was a noble prize winner for his work inventing PCR dna tech. Of course everyone dismissed him at the time as a hired gun for OJ, I guess he gets the last laugh today!
Iraw never funded terrorism? Saddam publicly admitted to giving money to the PLO/hammas. Of course maybe you do not consider blowing up isrealy discos as a bad thing( the music does suck)!
Al queda marginal regional thugs? Are you totally unaware of the facts? they WON a war with the USSR! Bin Laden's real skill has always been raising tons of arab oil money to finance them. They have been well funded( sometimes by the US) for decades.
I have seen the death of clear channel...the instrement is the I phone. This is the first device that plays music, can EASILY be connected( even controlled by) major car stereos and has high band width internet connectivity. Not yet though. When somebody makes the "killer app" for net radio over the Iphone, then people will switch to internet radio in the car. XM will be a footnote in broadcast history. CARP don't mean shit to a net radio station in nigeria. Hell Pirate Bay will have it's own station too. This is the RIAA's greatest fear as control by the corperate media will be marginal and tied to merit.
A friend of mine had his PDA linked to his car stereo back in 2001. He also had Richochet( remember that 79 dollar unlimited wireless net) and he could listen to shoutcast in the car live. This was costly and a bitch to set up. Now that an Ipod( easy to play over your car stereo) can connect to always on wireless, almost anybody can do it.
ok first off, Pickens is an oil man and in the wind biz, so I guess big oil will , at least in one case chase wind.
Secondly, even if exxon stops selling gas, oil will still be drilled. We use petrochemicals for MUCH more proffitable things than burning. we make SO much out of plastics, and will do more as the market changes.
Wind energy is like farming, all you need is land in the right place. Oil comanies in Texas all started out by LEASING farm land to drill on. The wind biz will be run much the same way.
decentralized power will happen, but we will still need a grid.

4500 hours? that sonly 187 days? So the new OLED tv lasts 6 months? at 2500 bucks a unit that is a deal that needs lots of LUBE!

I think the international standard for distance over water is still knots?
ok put a harmless yet buggy piece of code in there and see how long it lasts?

i am pretty sure the news from the lawsuit sold more games than the makers of GTA4 had to pay.
why notjust put the data on CD or dvd and carry it in a "Britney Spears " cd case?
