How long can you leave a dog by itself (with food/water) before it's "inhumane"?

If you are anywhere near 24 hours you do not deserve to own animals. Outside with food and water does not make a difference. I've had to do 12 before, daily it's about 9. Neighbors across the street left for 3 days and theirs got out of the yard. One was dangerous so animal control took it...

Palin Spent Earmarks On Dead End "Road To Nowhere"; $8 Million Per Mile

At least she realized it was a bad idea (albeit not until it was hitting her budget). I'm more concerned with her policies that I don't agree with rather than a relatively minor lapse in judgement that she at least later somewhat corrected.

netflix vs. blockbuster online

I've been a member of both and they are both bad in that after a while if you have a quick turnaround on your movies your priority is dropped like a stone and you can never get new movies again. That being said when bb added the instore exchanges it removed that problem. If you do not do...

My credit union (which I also happen to work at) covers all savings except money markets. Basically the financial institution has to keep enough money in reserve to cover draft accounts. IF they choose to do so they can hold enough money to cover other shares as well, we keep enough to cover...

How far does the interest rate have to drop...

I wish our mortgage company did that. We ended up closing later when a new rate was in effect. Ended up having to pay an additional $600 to drop .5%. I did the math and knew I would get the money back in 6 years or so.

Bush Unveils Mortgage Relief

I don't have a problem with it, but I would consciously not say it around people I knew were Jewish just in case they might get offended. My girlfriend is Jewish and I say it all the time around her though, she finds it funny.

Do you think EA fears Valve?

EA just has too many titles and franchises across pc and console gaming. As a side note I just purchased madden and nba live 08 both for ps2. While madden is pretty good, nba live is one of the worst games I've seen in a while.

Help me with math problem

If they rotate the 3 jobs worker 10,000 would be turning them all back on. I'm not sure why you say after 5001 only one state is changing. It's possible I'm not getting it, but if they rotate and worker 1's job is in the rotation then they are all on.

Servers that kick HPB's

In addition to the current netcode within halflife giving HPB's an advantage by lag killing people the autokicks are a relic of the old netcode. In older versions of halflife a player with a high ping would "lag the server" and increase the latency for all other players. I have no idea what...

Do tea and coffee dehydrate?

Incorrect diuretics like coffee and tea cause a net loss in liquid. You lose more than you get. It's specifically the caffeine in both of these drinks so if you had decaf I would expect that you wouldn't have that problem. The same is true for alcohol. Beer is typically in the upper 90% of...

Problem with a new build (possible AM2 memory quirk?)

Try a video card if you have one available, just to make sure. Doublecheck all jumpers. There was another thread where they were talking about memory voltages as in the memory purchased was the wrong type. I'd check that too just to be safe.

Woot! Found an old life insurance policy I don't need!

I got mine because it lowered my car insurance payments to the point it was cheaper to have the life policy than not to. I can also borrow against the account if I want to while still earning interest on the amount giving me an effective 2% loan (which changes based on current interst rates).

You can also do it in group policy or by local policy. The nice thing about group policy of course is being able to set it for all the machines at once and not have to do it by hand.
