USB External HD with Password Protection?

Looking for recommendations on an external hard drive that would prompt for a password after connecting it to a computer so that not just anyone could browse what's on it. Is there such a thing and if so which do you recommend?

Dell 2405FPW monitor just died

There doesn't seem to be a traditional Dell service tag on it anywhere I can find. There are a couple of serial numbers but those don't work on the Dell site. I can't find any of the original documentation at the moment either. Any help would be greatly appreciated... EDIT: YGPM

Dell 2405FPW monitor just died

My Dell 2405FPW 24" monitor that I've had for ~3 years suddenly turned off by itself today, then I see this nice cloud of smoke coming out of the top of it. Now it doesn't power on and I assume that it's done. I don't think there is any warranty on it and am wondering what I have for...

Anyone get car sick when riding shotgun?

Do you only take ginger on days that you are flying, or everyday? Do you spread it out throughout the day, or take them all at once?

Anyone get car sick when riding shotgun?

I guess I should have included more detail in the original post. I'm a new LEO. I can't really shut my eyes or simply stare straight ahead when riding around in the patrol car. I need to constantly be scanning. It's not really an issue if I'm driving, but when I'm not it's really hard to...

Anyone get car sick when riding shotgun?

Because of my current career, I spend a lot of time in a car. When I'm not driving, I find myself getting car sick a lot of the time to the point where it's almost debilitating. I've searched and tried a lot of the suggested remedies such as non-drowsy ginger Gravol, Ginger Root, etc...

Anyone ever buy Ashley furniture?

I bought a new couch and love seat from the local Ashley furniture store a couple of years ago. The sales people were annoying and pushy as hell, but I found what I wanted for a great price so I didn't really care. The quality has been fine (mine are micro fiber). It took about 6 weeks after...

Curtis Granderson's Amazing Catch

It was a really nice catch, however there have been better plays this year than that. This one reminds me of the one that the Mets outfielder (can't remember his name right now) made in the playoffs last year to rob Scott Rolen of a home run.

Very true. I checked and it was set to allow up to 10,000 connections or something stupid like that. Unfortunately customers do also access parts of the FTP site so we do need to keep it public.
