    Total Meltdown

    I'm pretty sure today is gonna be an big up day because EtfTraderLives said so and he's never wrong: "Either Wednesday/Thursday is going to be a gap up and run day! Likely Thursday according to my estimates and chart analysis. " http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=133852

    Best Way To Destroy Data on Hard Disk Drive

    I actually tried this with an ordinary electric drill and its not easy/fast. There is a large amount of metal in the hard drive case, presumably to act as a heat sink so its pretty tough on the drill bit to drill through. I found it much easier to remove the screws on the drive, open the...

    Best Way To Destroy Data on Hard Disk Drive

    High [B] Run a "wipe" program that writes a series of one's and zero's to the drive again and again. Really that is only necessary to protect against sophisticated data recovery (NSA, CIA, etc) If you are just trying to protect against joe-blow running a "format recovery" type program...

    One Dollar Homes - Is this a Joke or is There a Catch?

    Read this story: Foreclosure fallout: Houses go for a $1 http://www.detnews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080813/METRO/808130360/&imw=Y It specifically mentions the second house that your linked search returns (8111 Traverse Street). The bottom line is that you are buying a stripped...

    U.S. Taxpayers Acquiring 66,000 Foreclosed Homes A Day

    There are actually two problems with the OP, (1) the 66k/day figure is bogus and (2) the author attributes that figure to just foreclosures by FNM/FRE, not the national total, making the 66k figure even more absurd. http://www.foreclosuredeals.com/wp/national-foreclosure-rate-soar-53/...

    Oil Falls Below $125 as U.S. Fuel Supplies Gain, Demand Drops

    There is not a linear relationship between the % increase in demand and the % increase in price so your statement is nonsensical. If output is 100 and demand is 102 then the price will continue to rise until some of the demand is removed and equilibrium is restored. Yes, the price of...

    Velocity/MBTrading/OpenEcry

    Like I said, any thread that mentions the word "Futures" is your business and thus fair game in your mind. Just because you paid to become an ET sponsor doesn't make it any less spammy in my book.

    Velocity/MBTrading/OpenEcry

    I guess becoming an ET sponsor means you can go to any thread that mentions the word futures and spam to your heart's delight? 41 posts of the exact same thing .... Nice

    WOW!!! The biggest news in housing market and nobody on ET notices...

    Actually this was all over the news last week - where were you? $300B to basically stabilize the entire housing market and no one here takes notice. Uh no It means no one else is forced out of their subprime loans. Wow, completely wrong. In addition, they get to cut their monthly...

    Banks blowing up - How to survive?

    I'm not sure if the OP is trying to say that you need to create LLC's to extend FDIC protection beyond $100k but just to be clear, its very easy to get as much FDIC protection as you want and you don't need to create dummy companies to do it. Two choices (that are not mutually exclusive)...
