Thanks Jimmy, I'm currently going over "Trading Options on Futures" - Labuszewski & Nyhoff right now. I might make your pick the next reading assignment. :) Looks like you've given me a lot of options to examine! I really don't want to do this full-time you know! ;)

Are you serious? No, it won't help fat-loss, but it will help recovery. I'd recommend stretching for 10-15 minutes after a workout, get something to eat (500-700 calories of carb & protein in 4:1 ratio), then go sit in the jacuzzi. Follow up with a massage and regular meal a couple hours later...

I've actually received counterfeit cashier's check before. They're easy to forge nowadays with high-rez scanners and printers. If you're not taking cash, i'd wait at least 2-weeks for the check to clear your bank AND their bank.

Yeah, there's a lot of "choice" if that's what you call it. But we can't really choose what we're attracted to, it just happens in the moment, the subconcious. Guys picking thin, svelte girls come later, after the primal instincts. Thin is perhaps a little more emotional, a little more...

Although overall, Cali is up an average of about 8%, slightly higher than historical average, in my area, median-prices are down -9% in the past couple months alone. About -12% in YTD I think. Perfectly normal correction as it had some of the highest run-ups in the state with +15% appreciation...

Another idea is that the P4 sucks for floating-point operations. It's actually 30-40% slower than the P3 with equivalent MHZ rating when it comes to crunching numbers. The SSE/MMX/HT are great for doing integer and matrix operations, but your software would have to be specifically compiled to...

It's the subsconcious primal mating instincts. It's why we like chics with a 4:3 hip:waist ratio. Why we like big breasts. It's all about the mating game. Same reason chics are attracted to tall guys, or guys with pecs & 6-pak bellies.

Problem isn't CPU, it's some other bottleneck, most likely a rogue process that needs to be examined. First, open up ComputerManagement to Services and disable all the non-essential ones. This will actually create a more secure system as well. No need to have RDP, DHCP, IPSEC, etc. loaded when...

Not everyone says it was invincible, just the suckerz who are hocked to the gills. The handwriting's been on the wall for quite a while now: Year-Over-Year Medians Have Gone Negative SignOnSanDiego - San Diego County home prices take a tumble SanDiegoClosedSalesDropping.pdf High rates...

Ok, I found the software that Samsung and Dell uses to rotate their displays: Pivot Pro. Then the driver specific to the monitor detects the physical rotation of the monitor and signals Pivot Pro to rotate the signal to keep the image upright. I remember using this package on the Radius and...

Is that market-predictions by Chrysler???

Nothing is an isolated event, but just a link in a long chain of events. Check out The Grand Chessboard- Brzezinksi. Notice how 9/11 fits into the scheme of things and its role to current mid-east events. Then recognize that this strategy was laid out way back in the '70s.... about the same time...

hmm... reminds of what Jack said about men and women in "As Good as It Gets"... :)

What's the point of defraggin? To increase performance right? Pull out the stopwatch and time things before and after a defrag and you won't notice much of a difference at all, except that you've just exercised the cr@p out of your HD and reduced its lifespan. WIth modern OS-caching, caching...

Most motherboards now have BIOS that allows you to pick the boot-up drive (drive-1, drive-2, drive-3, drive-4, etc). No need to physically swap cables or drives. I have two hard-drives that I can boot from. One has FreeBSD and the other has a dual-boot configuration between Windows and OSX86. :)

It's a misconception that you can do spot reductions, the body will take fat from all over. While you can build up muscle underneath flabby areas to increase size and tone, handles don't have any muscles underneath that's shapely. You can't get rid of it like replacing man-boobs with pecs...

Except that you only have one AGP slot in that computer and it's already filled with the original card. So the next card will have to be a PCI card. :) Basically any dual-DVI PCI card that can run 1280x1024 resolution for a 19" display will work fine. At the higher resolutions, analog VGA...

Nope, haven't check out that site yet, but it looks like they have limited futures options. And even then, only on the financial instruments. Personally, I still prefer the paper, pen & ruler techniques of analysis... :) 11-Jul-06 - COCOA vertical spread analysis Alright, here's the entry...

Yeah, he's got 3 PCI and 2 PCI-64 slots. The faster throughput of PCI-X over AGP/PCI will never make a difference anyway. :) Most graphics chips can't even max out AGP-4x.

I'm looking at upgrading my system to multiple monitors in stages. Eventually I want to end up with a screen set-up like this. Figured I'd get the two 20" displays first and then the 30" one later. I was thinking of getting a dual-DVI card first to drive the two 20" displays, then get a...
