Went shooting 3 times in 24 hours! Pictures
The D5000 is not a bad camera. Been using D700's for years. I purposely stayed away from the 800e.

Nice. Even with the teleconverter, there was no noticeable lens distortion or motion blur on the 2nd and 3rd shots. I thought you had the camera stopped down further than that, leading to the ND filter question. Bumping up the ISO gave you the F-stop and shutter speed you needed to get the job done. Nice photos. Sorry to the non-photo geeks for the use of bandwidth.

So with an effective lens lenth of 400mm were you using a monopod or tripod? Did you use a ND filter to stop it down?

Home appliance heating, cooling warranty/protection program
My house is about 20 years old. In a 3 year old house, you don't have as much to worry about. Problems with my hot water heater didn't start until about 8 years after the house was built. It was roughly 12 or so years before parts in the heating unit started needing replacement. The utility company's maintenance plan is relatively inexpensive, and the response time is reasonable. With a plumbing and heating company, a service call can be quite expensive, and there's no telling how soon they can come to fix the problem (especially in the middle of a cold snap when they're flooded with calls). I'm not a big believer in maintenance contracts, but the house heater and hot water heater contracts have served me well.

Hope there's no retaliatory shootings. It would be awful if NJ had one less "five star general." LOL. I say let 'em blast each other into extinction as long as they don't take out any innocents in the process.

Is it just me or are there more WTS posts lately?
Same here. It's awesome to use someone elses money for the month. Cleaning out the unused stuff is probably more like it.

I use the utility for the house heater and hot water heater. In the last 10 years, they've practically rebuilt the house heater with not OOP. Haven't had a problem yet with hot water heater.

Assembly won't consider Senate bills without 10 round mag limits
I'll be banned from his facebook page soon, I'm sure.

Maybe, just maybe, Greenwald is painting himself into a corner. If he pisses Sweeney off enough, he may not get anything. My guess is if any of this crap makes it though the Senate, the assembly will take what they can get. It's just a matter of posturing on Greenwald's part.

LOL. Now that you've added context, it make more sense.

Thanks for sharing the story. Hopefully, you'll be able to update us with more information when it's available.

Smoke alarm question
I set the monitored ones off by mistake when I forgot to put the system on test. Within 4 minutes, there were fire engines outside, even after I called ADT to tell them that I set it off by mistake. ADT doesn't mess around when it comes to fire alarms.

Smoke alarm question
While we have a separate smoke/co2 system monitored by ADT, the wired system that we had installed when the house was built is local only (not monitored by alarm company). When one goes off, they all go off.

Smoke alarm question
Throughout the years, when that happened, it was time to change the backup batteries. After about 10 years or so, they started beeping and replacing the batteries didn't help. I called the manufacturer, and they told me that it was time to replace them. The newer version used a different wiring harness, so I installed the new harness at each location.

Looking good on the federal front!
You're right. But it sure does send a clear message to state legislators across the country that they too are vulnerable.

Looking good on the federal front!
Yea, yea, yea! I watched the whole thing. My wife thinks I'm an idiot. Whenever I saw schumer, feinstein or any of the other JO's, I screamed at the tv. Obama wanted his straight up-or-down vote. He got it that POS. For those who voted for the measures, election time will be coming and I hope your sorry azzes are kicked to the curb.

Nobody wants me to let me try their Sig P938?....please?
Sorry to hear nobody has one for you to try. It's always much better to try it before you buy it. It would be lousy for you to burn a P2P on a gun that you ultimately didn't like.

VICTORIA'S SECRET..
Nope, it would print. With enough to drink, I"m sure somebody would want to take the lady with the lumpy chest home. LOL.
