    What would Putin do if...

    Not high. Not in Colorado. I agree, the best policy is to do nothing. Especially if you're a bond or curency trader. The volatility helps. Fighting over the Ukraine and the Crimea aren't worth it. Crimea in the 1850's nearly broke the British Empire. No need for us to repeat...

    What would Putin do if...

    I disagree. What does Russia have that everyone wants, but can get somewhere else? Energy. What does Russia need that it can't get (enough of) within its own borders? Food, foreign currency, metals. Basically, everything else.. This is mere saber-rattling. The truth is, a lengthy...

    Experience with 4TB HDDs?

    I guess there's 2 ways to look at it - (1) do you want to pay $$$ up-front for reliability and longevity you get with SAS drives, or (2) pay as you go, buying boatloads of cheap desktop SATA drives and swapping them out/rebuilding the array as they fail. My preference was/is always #1. I...

    VLF transmitter

    I believe NOAAs buoys are tracked by satellite via radio signal/phone. I can't imagine their transmitters are low-powered. How are you going to receive your signals? Hack into a satellite? Or are you going to have a receiver nearby all the time? Here's some reading material...

    Daily Hottie

    Well, it's to be expected. They can't compete with 20-somethings, so why try? It's all superficial at that age, anyways. Ever notice the tendency of the over-40 crowd wearing shorter hair styles? They don't want to mess with it any more.... Anyways, my prefs will always be small...

    The Dumbest Generation... Don't Trust Anyone Under 30

    Has education remained the same? Of course not? Is education better or worse? Depends on your perspective. No one answer will be satisfactory Has the unacceptable become acceptable? Yes, most definitely. But again, depending on your perspective, some may feel that the acceptable...

    The Dumbest Generation... Don't Trust Anyone Under 30

    20 years ago, we saw stories about the my generation being a bunch of slackers.. 40 years ago, it was the demise of Nam and the hippies, and the onset of the disco generation... 50 years ago, it was all about Elvis, the Beatles, and rock-n-roll in general Notice the progression from being...

    George Bush: In Support Of The 1 Percenters

    One thing that boogles my mind is ... Soldiers on active duty have to pay income taxes... If that isn't ingratitude, I don't know what is... It's one group that's entitled to full exemption from federal and state income taxes while on active duty, regardless if they serve in a...

    2013: 4th warmest year on record

    I'm pretty sure the intensity of the sun's energy as a result of being 26 million miles closer is the reason the planet is inhospitable to any life forms...

    2013: 4th warmest year on record

    Why did the earth exit from the last (and other ice ages). Were woolly mammoths driving cars back then? Or burning the decomposed remains of the dinosaurs for heat and warmth like us humans? The answer is, of course, no. It's just one of the many examples which show there are larger...

    Interesting tidbit. Thanks for the insight. I'll have to try it myself and see how it works out, especially my print ads...

    2013: 4th warmest year on record

    And when one side gets irrational and starts name-calling and denigrating the opposition, it really means "they're losing"... Like FC.... FC, someone, somewhere has probably reserved a stake for you. With plenty of carbon-releasing kindling to give it a nice, sparkly, heart-warming...

    2013: 4th warmest year on record

    Just means the coyotes get dinner medium rare - seared on the outside, rare on the inside... In other news, some study says that animals get cancer at a much higher rate when fed cooked meat instead of raw meat, so maybe we'll there will be fewer coyotes in the future... Wait 5 minutes...

    2013: 4th warmest year on record

    What's a long-term trend? 38 years? 150 years? 213 years? 5,000 years as in the Bible Or is it the full 4.2 billion years this rock has theoretically existed? And regarding man-made activities, why doesn't anyone ever mention or measure the amount of CO2 released by exhaling...

    A New Sport Is Born - Drone Hunting

    So, some little rinky-dink town 56 miles east of Denver is getting all up in arms about the drones that won't be flying over their little community. Nothing out there except Ted Turner's buffalo... Yawn... Next...
