Is it complicated to switch Auto Lease account holder?

Hello, I am currently driving and paying for a 2010 Infiniti G37x. I realize that for the next 36 months I will be the owner of this vehicle lease yet my father's name is on the lease agreement since he negotiated the terms and credit check went through him. I am in the process of building up my...

Accountability for obvious attempt to scam insurance

Well x-rays are not free nor cheap so that's why the ins card would be required for billing purposes. Second, I would have no problem with a medical services provider charging my ins for services performed. The problem in this case is that I was (purposely) overbilled for one too many services.

Accountability for obvious attempt to scam insurance

Hey all, just wanted to share and try to get some advice on what to do (or not to do) next? Here's the short story: Sometime in late July 2010, I walked into a health food store to shop for something when I was offered a free 10 minute massage for some kind of promo. Ten minutes later, the...

The Official iPad Apps discussion thread

Hi all, I am going to ask this question in this post but maybe it warrants its own thread? I am looking for a good conversion software to convert my avi, divx, etc movies to an iPad "format" i.e. without the black borders. Can anyone recommend anything they've tried?

Microsoft Certification Training

2. Any Microsoft degree is far and beyond what one needs to attain an entry level position. I would say that 2-3 CompTIA cert = 1 MCP cert. But it's also specific to the position. If you are going for Help Desk IT (entry level) an A+ and Netowrk+ is equal to 1 Microsoft cert (70-29x) exam. But...

Samsung 46'' 1080p LN46A500T LCD HDTV+Samsung BD-P1500 Blu-ray Player+Cables Unlimited 6ft HDMI V1.3b Cable

The TV is around $1250.00 or less. The BluRay Player is about $200. The HDMI cables you can get for $2. So it's a close call IMHO. Hot or Not?

A Question for PokerStars players...

final comment in regards to the VNC thing, you don't have to use default port 5900, just change it to something you want. Besides VNC, you can use RDP and change the default port on that too so instead of 3389 or whatever it is make it something more common.. there's many ways to get around this...

Just install UltraVNC server on your home PC. Download UltraVNC viewer to your PC then connect to your home PC and run PokerStars off your home PC. I play during lunch. It's a tad laggy but who cares, its a poker game not doom3 or whatever.
