Weddings I don't know but for anything material, I find eBay to be a good anchor, after adjusting for seasonality.

@oboise: So, where do I go to reset the router in Bryant Park?

In a totally unrelated news: Toyota decides not to recall its cars with faulty brakes and tells consumers to fix the electronics and floormats themselves. If that doesn't work, the consumers are told to remove the floormats completely to assuage the braking issue.

@prr: Thanks for the help. I'll search in LH a little more.

@prr: Thanks, I checked on eBay before and the keyboards cost over 100$ for my Lenovo. As for the mouse, I have a wireless mouse but there seems to be some lag in the signal. Is there a way for me to organize the other cables?

Need some help with this one:

@bonakdar: There should be a name for it.

Site is down, although it would be funny to try a few CJK names, probably get it wrong all the time. I'm not sure about Japanese and Korean but if you don't speak Chinese, don't even bother try to pronounce Chinese names, you'll definitely get it wrong, same goes for Mandarin/Cantonese speakers.

@talkingstove: I guess this post let's you get a feeling of the new Gmail without the entry fee; but well said, the entry fee's a little steep for what it is.

WTF N00B in Bayside, Queens, I just need to find the picture...

@Steeb2er: That's a little sad, all that calculus going to waste.

Use Swype instead. There are versions for both WVGA and HVGA screens, though I'm not sure if they're legit.

Quit the war and spend less on military, please? No, the Chinese and Russians aren't going to attack you. While there's a sense of righteousness and accomplishment trying to make the world "ideal", it's coming at too much a cost.

@Drel: While your partner's school expense can be used to deduct further earnings, there's a limit to how much you can deduct AND is based on how much you make. Although getting married due to finance reasons is far from romantic (and ranks way below "I'm sorry") if you're both considering staying with each other, it…

The Internet and Obama? The Nobel Prize used to be about extraordinary achievements in a certain field. What happened? I feel bad for Mother Teresa(79) and Yasser Arafat(94).

@ffejie: Agree with you totally, even the same phone in different carriers drain a different amount of power due to the difference in reception.

There are only a handful of phones that have both GSM and CDMA radios. Even that, the CDMA radios are mostly carrier specific. Unless you have one of those phones, this advice is completely useless.
