When installing the software, they just ran the install as a regular user, rather than "Run As Administrator".

If we could get people educated and supportive of the FairTax, these types of problems and discussions would be rendered moot. No IRS, no tax-exempt groups (because there's no need for it), no political power to be wielded or abused.

And this is what I mean about getting educated :-) No, the Fair Tax is not a tax on income, but on consumption. ALL income, capital gains, estate, corporate taxes are eliminated and replaced by an end-point sales tax. You're thinking of a flat tax, which is another beast entirely that doesn't fix the problem, just shifts it sideways. The Fair Tax more or less eliminates the power (if not the agency itself) of the IRS.

All these discussions would be MOOT if people educated themselves about the FAIR TAX and then pushed their governments, friends, family, total strangers to help support it and get it passed into law.

They also were forward-thinking in their deliberations. Originally they wanted "Life, Liberty and Property" but there was debate on how that could be used to CONTINUE slavery, so they settled on "Life, Liberty and pursuit of happiness". That was one of many compromises that were made.

Duplicate your existing hardware storage setup and then send it to a colocation datacenter. Then you'll have one offsite copy at a fixed price. Downside: you only have one copy, but that's better than none.

If you're going to harp about people being asleep, at least try to comprehend the argument that people are trying to make. NO ONE is saying he's not a citizen of the United States. Ok, repeat that: he is an American citizen. That is NOT the argument people make. He is a citizen. Can we move on to the actual argument people are making? Here's what people are saying: that while he may be a citizen, that under the Constitution he is NOT a "natural-born citizen". Are you grasping this yet? To put it another way, all squares are rectangles, but not all rectangles are squares. All Natural-Born Citizens are Citizens, but not all Citizens are Natural-Born Citizens.

Let's see... The NRA compiles and publishes a list of people who contributed to a group or lobby that was anti-gun... how do you think those people would feel? PETA compiles and publishes a list of people who own fur coats. Westboro Baptish Church compiles and publishes a list of all same-sex marriage licenses. These types of things are nothing more than harassment.

Seriously? Do you actually believe this??? Ever hear of prohibition in the US? It was codified into the Constitution and was SUCH a smashing success that it was eventually repealed. If you really think you can prevent the flow of firearms to people who really really want them, you're seriously delusional. And I suppose you plan on searching everyone to see if they are indeed carrying/owning all these guns?

Are you planning any type of backup/generator power? If so, figure out what services MUST be running in case of main power loss (basic networking, phone, security systems, etc.) and plan circuitry accordingly. If you have a panel dedicated to those services/outlets, it's much simpler to add in generator power to keep the doors open and the phones working, even if your main business (the CNC machines) are down for a period of time.

Adolf Eichmann: "Jews: At last, it can be reported to you that the Russians are advancing on our eastern front. I apologize for the hasty way we brought you into our protection. (the Jewish Ghettos) Unfortunately, there was little time to explain. You have nothing to worry about. We want only the best for you. You will leave here shortly and be sent to very fine places indeed. You will work there, your wives will stay at home, and your children will go to school. You will have wonderful lives. We will all be terribly crowded on the trains, but the journey is short. Men? Please keep your families together and board the trains in an orderly manner. Quickly now, my friends, we must hurry!"

The Jewish husbands and fathers were relieved by the explanation and comforted by the fact that there weren't more armed soldiers. They helped their families into the railcars. The containers, designed to transport eight cows, were each packed with a minimum of one hundred human beings and quickly padlocked.

At that moment they were lost. The trains rarely stopped until well inside the gates of Auschwitz...

Why do I transcribe this section of a book? Because we're quickly becoming frogs in the boiling pot. Little by little we submit, we ignore, we cooperate and we comply.

Think about that before you board your next train.

They could use it to power frickin lasers on the heads of sharks....

I'll have to disagree with you on this, having actually setup a wifi system at an RV park. It is different than setting up a wifi hotspot in a building. The park owner asked for my recommendations about installing wifi to cover the park, and I gave them. The cost figures that I presented were higher than what he wanted and asked if we could do it another, less expensive way. What he wanted to try was a couple of telephone poles with an omnidirectional antenna for the access point, directional antenna for the backhaul link. If you were within a certain range (not far) it worked ok, but more than one or two rows of RV units away, it was no good. Keep in mind that RV units are essentially big metal cans... not the most conducive to getting a wifi signal into from the outside. What I wanted to do, and we eventually ended up doing, was installing a 70' tower with directional antennas pointed at an angle down. By using the technical specs of the antenna, we could figure the angles to get a pretty fair amount of coverage over the park, with almost line-of-sight from the antenna to each RV. This last bit was the key. By having the antennas too low, they would HAVE to penetrate multiple tin cans to get to the farthest units... and that just doesn't work, even with a 1-watt transmitter. A second park pulled me in for some consulting on the same type of thing, and they had antennas located about 10-12 feet in the air... I can guarantee you that unless you want to install an access point at each campsite, go higher. Lower does NOT work in this type of situation. We did keep one of the omni-directional antennas, because it worked so well. While most antennas are either horizontally or vertically polarized, this one was constructed to basically take the signal in any polarization that reached it. This park has trees as well, but how it would compare to yours is hard to say. Trees will absorb the signal quite a bit. One of the things I used to get the owner to put up the cash for the tower and etc was a bunch of signal-strength charts generated by netstumbler.
