    IB is up and running :) I'm using quotetracker as a TS backup but I still miss my custom indicators!!! The problem is that TS had problems yesterday too. Two problems days in a row-- NOT GOOD! Chinook

    Atkins Article

    Taking small steps in anything....People know this. But can most of the traders and dieters do it? That's my point. Many people want quick results. That's why we have all these lose ~7lbs/week and make a fortune from trading ads!

    Atkins Article

    I'm talking about my own experience. To me they're extremely similar. In both cases, you need to be patient and take small steps. You have to have a reachable goal. If one's expectations are too high, then there's a good change that one would fail. Of course everybody is different; take a...

    Atkins Article

    Dieting is almost like trading. There are many methods to choose from. There's no ultimate diet plan since everybody is different. Like many beginning traders, dieters have very high expectations like losing weight very fast. Of course, this doesn't happen to most of the dieters and then they...

    Atkins Article

    I'm on a low carb high fat diet 5.5 days of the week. About 70% of my calories are coming from fat. This is the induction phase Atkins Diet. But not all of my fat is saturated. I'm getting healthy fats from olive oil, omega-3 and omega-6 from the seed mixture. My triglycerides and fasting...

    Atkins Article

    I agree with junk food. Most of the typical "snacks" are loaded with transfatty acids and carbs--worst combination. Only snacks I eat are nuts especially pistachios during the weekends. Some weekends I also pop my own popcorn and then spray olive oil on them. Chinook

    Atkins Article

    I started doing Atkins style low-carb dieting five years ago. Last two years, I'm on CKD which is low-carb during the week and high carb during the weekends. I'm eating about 3/4 lbs of low fat cheese, egg whites, olive oil, spinach, wine and flax+sesame+sunflower seeds during the week. Then...

    Atkins Article

    I think dieting is like trading. Perhaps Atkins knew exactly what he should do but just couldn't continue following his diet. Or the obesity was really caused by his sickness/complications. Chinook

    What's the best way to clone a hard drive?

    I now have two 80GB WB drives. The new one has 8MB buffer and old one has 2 MB. I'll use the new one as my boot drive and clone it weekly on the older drive. And I can boot either of them. I had a dying hard drive in my old PC and I ended up wasting so much time reloading OS+programs+drivers...

    What's the best way to clone a hard drive?

    I set the Disk0 to "None" and Disk1 to "Auto" in the BIOS. The master/slave jumper configurations are set to cable detect for both of the drives. I'm pleasantly surprised! Chinook

    What's the best way to clone a hard drive?

    Max401, You're a GENIUS :) It worked!!!! Thanks!!! So now with a simple change in the BIOS settings, I can boot both drives! The good and puzzling thing is that I still have access to both C and F drives in the windows explorer! I'm not sure how this is happening but I'm not complaining...
