And not forgetting the advances in technology....[image: 7gjM_omg.jpg]

Thanks guys! The Brady Bunch house might be just about right, though it might be a little over the medium/small-ish size I'm aiming for. I tried modeling my parents house, but they said it was a little too large. I'll go check out those homes in Davis. Now that you point it out, I might be in a neighborhood with a suitable house. The floorplan would be the best thing to start with though, so I don't have to approximate the insides - I know so little about architectural layout. Thanks for all the leads, Chris

@notareal said: Change the law if this is a problem (and say goodbye for the little freedom you still have). Which is exactly what Labour did last year. All because a few got carried away with their emotions (and because Labour lacked any kind of leadership- which I think is true with all current politicians/ party's)

I wonder how one of those would work with the 'Odour Control' underwear? One could be in 'production' under cover so to speak!!! The designer has given the device a lot of consideration ..... don't see any Instructional Videos on the site though ...... maybe an opportunity here!!!! Mike PS: I'm surprised Ross has not commented yet!!! Probably looking for a superior device!!! [image: ej6i_PatentedFeatures.jpg]

(not original) It's so cold... I chipped a tooth on my soup. that tea cozies are being used for things that tea cozies should never be used for! my balls have become ovaries. we are afraid hell IS actually freezing over.

Cool, that looks great Richard. Thanks for the update!

Next the Enigma machine!

I went to Burnley yesterday to watch Leeds.... What a game. First half we were absymal and deservedly 2-0 down. 2nd half we came out and were sensational, coming from 2-0 down to win 3-2, with a fabulous goal in the last 5 minutes to win it for us. Fabulous stuff! Was buzzing!

I don't know, but perhaps we (the UK) could ask the US of A (politely, of course) to remove their facilities from Ascension Island, Diego Garcia and Fylingdale etc. That might grab their attention. We could then follow that up by pulling all our troops out of Iraq and Afghanistan. I agree with Solo; if you are not American then you are, potentially, an enermy, which includes the UK. I see little advantage in the so-called special relationship, and whenever I hear friendly words from the American administration I am reminded of this clip from the film Outlaw Josey Wales: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfdpcrOgUp4 Kind regards, Bob

I wonder about the fate of the 300 or so Charter 08 signatories!

I agree with Brodie, speed reading with reasonable comprehension works (in my case), but leaves the color of contemplation, grayed. Even with technological information, it matters to contemplate. So if you must, you speed read. If you have the time, don't:-)

You should try and keep power and signal cables separate although not a must. If you have an UPS and start operation from that the DC to AC converter with its higher EMI maybe a problem but have not found a specific case. TV cables are double shielded and unlike MIL spec cables with a shielding effectiveness of 45 db they have 90 db. I think that is the same for some of the PC special hook up cables you pay $$ for. In the EMC world this is called category separation. If you want some boring reading look at MIL STD 461 and 462. I like the small plastic straps with stick on where you can place where you want. For course they do not stay forever

We'll see what happened in the next Google year review in December 2011...

honestly judging by this video, the positive aspects of the year really were not very positive. From a global perspective i reckon 2010 has been a terrible year. Personally my year hasn't been too bad for which im thankful. Lets hope things pick up next year before the end of the world in 2012

fabulous imagery, i havent seen much on legacy yet, but i noticed they've given the bikes more real-life physics. What i loved about the original was the impossible right hand turns, it just felt much more like how a computer would handle such an event. Still the design looks very nice and im looking forward to seeing this sequel/reboot
