If someone wants to get in bad enough then nothing will stop them whether it's duplicating a signal, breaching a door, busting a window, tunneling under the foundation, HALOing on to the roof and Santa Clausing down the chimney but for day to day security it's fine and I don't feel any less secure vs having a traditional lock. Plus, if I'm home, I have other measures that will stop them immediately

You can do that with mangoes too?

I mean I've heard of the watermelon version, but...

All moved in. Started doing some yard work, pulling weeds and laying down some leveling dirt to hopefully revive what I think was once grass. Bought a new grill, lawn mower, front door handle assembly, yada yada yada.

New laptop: Toshiba E45T-B4300 Satellite 14" Touch-Screen, Intel Core i5, 8GB Memory, 750GB Hard Drive.

Although I have 2 HP laptops already, one is 17" and the other 15.4". I wanted a smaller more portable one with a Back-Lit Keyboard and Touch-Screen. This bad boy rocks!

Nice laptop.
I just sold my 5yr old Toshiba Satellite L455D-S5976 15.6" (250 GB, AMD Sempron, 2.1 GHz), and market for a laptop. I am going to take a look at this or similar model. thanks.

Congrats on the house!

Beware of shopping at home hardware stores though...its crazy how you can walk through a random aisle and still find something you "need" once you have a house.

Thanks! I was also considering this particular Asus: http://www.engadget.com/products/asu...k/prime/ux31a/

Here are reviews from owners on the Toshiba I just got: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/toshiba-...=1219370475332

Dude, don't even get me started. New shower heads, new cabinet hardware, new counter tops for the bathrooms, new back splash for the kitchen, gripper pads for the couches on the tile, lawn mower, washer and dryer, paint for the entire house, barbeque grill...,

I've never used my credit card this much, so they've turned it off on me 3 times now because they thought someone stole it and was having a shopping spree.

I must respectfully disagree.

Unless one is playing online gaming, while watching YouTube movies and running some sort of work processes (DBA, Sys Admin etc) simultaneously, 8gig of RAM is VERY adequate for everyday work and play.

Well, if TXStyle wants to upgrade the RAM later on time, it is simple as buying it cheap online,and open the slot and fill it in. Beauty of computer upgrade.

Little bit on the expensive side but totally worth it for your dogs health. One of the few grain free products out there that has zero chicken/poultry which can cause allergies in dogs (flakey skin, tons of scratching, massive hair shedding) Main source of protein is Salmon, while main carb is Potato.

My English bulldog used to have a ton of skin allergies as well as fold infections despite using medicated wipes to clean his face daily, but nothing seemed to work.

Taste of the wild - fold infections would go away, but diarrhea/hair shed would stay.

Blue buffalo- fold infections would come back+hair shedding above normal.

Bowsers been on this for 3 months now- and all his issues have cleared up. Within a week you could tell the difference.

Anyways- just thought I'd put the word out there for any of you who may have a best friend going through allergies.
