    Wireless HDMI tv transmitter

    I've done hdmi over cat6, works well. I've tried those wireless hdmi units and they suck. Short range, anything in los destroys what little range it gets and issues with them dropping. If you only need to mirror something you can look into sling box with Chromecast. There is a delay in...

    Hardly. http://www.bankrate.com/finance/mort...insurance.aspx How long do you think it will take someone putting 5% down to get to 20% equity in a normal market? Much longer than 2.5 - 3 years. If you're in a situation where you'll be paying PMI then you're best option is to pre pay it...

    Check into paying the PMI up front. If you're in the home longer than about 2.5 years it's a better option if you have to go that route.

    Pretty sure they have it all down and probably has been down for months now. Ambiguity makes for better Hopium and that makes better PR. If I had to guess all the "changes" were probably set in stone sometime in early January when they sent their request over to Korea.

    This really isn't a bad game at all. I went into it saying I wasn't going to play and its actually decent with some really well done parts. The classes and combat are excellent. Probably one of the best I've played. Very Tera'ish feel combat wise but with a MUCH improved system for pulling...

    You can download better battery stats and it will break down what the actual process is that is using the battery or time spent by the process keeping the kernel from going to deep sleep. GSAM is ok for basic stats but better battery stats is much more specific. Some features might require root.

    You have to be cautious on what you consider comps. Real estate is a fickle bitch and one or two streets can be a major difference in price regardless if the properties are the same square footage or basically similar in construction on the outside.

    They get their money one way or another. Property taxes, sales tax or income tax. Plus the fees. Here the capped the increase on value at 3% max per year so that helps with the soaring market prices.

    First, if you have insurance you pay the contract rate the second they have your insurance card. So yes a CT scan might be $900 at the hospital. Second, if you pay that and aren't in a critical care (does he have a brain bleed) then well you're dumb. My wife's CT scan we paid out of pocket...

    All trolling aside, I'd rather the Pats play any team besides the Broncos this year. This could very well be Manning's last game. He is either going to light the Pats right the fuck up and then the RB's will run all over them or he is going to have 3 or 4 turn overs and the Pats are going to...

    Depending on when they bought, if the assessment was already done it is possible that they paid taxes on the previous owners value. Depending on how that is calculated that could be significantly lower if homesteaded. Here, as an example, there is a max that the value can go up at 3% per year...

    Every area is different. Generally there are rates set by the city / county that apply to various expenses and they get tallied up. Generally based on value with a credit in many areas for seniors, homestead, widow etc.. They add it all up, minus credits and add on any surcharges. You...

    One thing that could fuck us is a Gama Ray Burst from a Super Nova relatively close to us. From what I've read they are usually shot out on the axis of the star but if one of those were to hit earth it would be bad. Closer it is the more deadly. Obviously the odds of that are ridiculously low...
