believe me, it doesn't. If you like sports and water this is a blast.

it's more about balance and control than strength. Any wrong move and you come crashing into the water (and it hurts sometimes)

I tried this in Hawaii. It's awesome but very hard to control. It takes a while for you to get the hang of it.

Chief is done. FineDD is done. What's left now? Anybody has any ideas?

the problem with the ARs is not only the color but the overall effect in different lighting conditions. The V6 has a good AR but the crystal has an overall blue tint with indoors diffused daylight. Under direct sunlight or strong indoor lighting it looks good but overall it has the same issue as the old PAM ARs. Pictures rarely help though.

are the cyclops ready? I'd like to see a picture.

I find it funny when people bring re-distribution like it's a real thing happening in this country. I wonder what kind of evidence they think exists other than gut feeling.

agree, the Eurozone was a good idea on paper but the execution fell short. The burden on the weaker countries will just drag everyone else down. It should be time for a restructuring. However the Eurozone bureaucrats are not elected directly so it will take some drastic measures in countries like Germany to change the status quo. Very complicated situation.

He has some valid points but I'm sorry but this Marc Faber is speaking non sense when he says you can use Dollars in Latin America. That just doesn't happen. The minute you remove the common currency you end up with exchange rates, currency fluctuation that changes the flow of goods across borders. He's right politicians and even some companies have a tendency to mask reality with financial games.

Although I disagree with the role the SCOTUS in that fiasco (which was really caused by voter irregularity, suppression and other issues while Bush's brother was running that state) at the end Gore would have lost anyway. As it was reported after the fact the recount continued as Gore requested the result would be the same (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florida_election_recount). Who knows what a full recount would have done but that's just speculation.

This. But unfortunately these clowns are already posturing for the mid term elections in 2 yrs. It's hopeless.

I sincerely hope your doom and gloom scenario is just a personal frustration. I'm not sure where do you see the signs for such pessimistic outlook.

House Republican. Senate Democrat (with a few more seats than before). Let's hope those people stop behaving like 12 yo and start working to get stuff done. I'm tired of politics. These guys are paid to do a job not to run for office.

even FoxNews already called. It's over.

Let's see if now these clowns in Washington can do some actual work and make things better. Congrats to the President.

I'd say more in the $1.2K range

Bummer, that's exactly what I wanted to do.

I think the issue with MS is they always find a way to make things overly complicated and non intuitive. I recently had the "pleasure" of using the MS Sync that came with a rental car and it was just awful. It took me a while to figure out how to just get my iphone to be selected as a source and every time I got in the car I had to do it all over again. I want to see a review of people actually using it for a while and see if they get frustrated with the small little things that the MS developers just can't get it right.

There's no question the watch in the picture is genuine. I don't know why you say it's too cheap, it's not. The 2504.50 comes with a bracelet that the seller is not showing and he says it was re-brushed. The $60 (much less if used) Hirsch strap won't make up for a damaged bracelet. I find it suspicious he decides not to post pics of the bracelet. The same model was sold on ebay recently in a much better condition (no refinishing/re-brushing) for about the same price with full box/papers.

yep go for the 7753 chrono if you want it big. It's a square watch so it wears a lot bigger than the round ones.

reports say it's actually worse than predicted. Winds are reaching 90mph. Atlantic city is being hit hard.

it this a picture of the sample cyclops?

I was actually visiting the Maserati factory ( a friend of mine arranged) and decided to take a spin on a 430 next to Fiorano.

The car is a 2008 430 Spider. The setting: the streets next to Fiorano (Ferrari test track in - next to Maranello, Italy). You can see the track in the background. The 430 has 5 driving settings: snow, street, sport, race and no CST(meaning no traction control). Only the first 2 are street legal. The sound and the power are unbelievable. When you floor the gas pedal it feels like extra cylinders are kicking it. It peaks at 8500 RPM. Truly unforgettable. The car feels glued to the asphalt. When you think you are pushing too much in a corner you just keep accelerating. Amazing.
