    NA Dog challenging authority NA

    Great advice! As much as we want dogs to be a "part of the family", they live by their own instinctive rules. Once established, it's amazing how fast they adapt to the role and take as much of the "leash" as they're allowed. I regularly take my dog to my company's offices when we travel...

    NA Dog challenging authority NA

    After some personal experience, I'm convinced that the age of the dog is irrelevant with the final outcome. I lived with a girlfriend who's GSD had the run of the house and knew it. Within a month, I could set a plate of food on the floor and the dog wouldn't move toward it unless I said...

    NA Dog challenging authority NA

    What you're doing sounds like an alpha roll in dog training terms. Sometimes it's necessary. The key is to put him on his back, wrap your hand around his throat with a little firmness and growl right next to his ear. Watch what a normal pack would do. The Alpha controls all in a pack...

    I understand now

    That's kind of the nature of a discussion board. Some conversations move fast, some don't. And it takes time to become part of the community.

    Re: Your government at work: NTHSA recall to make cars LESS safe Amazing that I'm still alive after those years of driving around with no LATCH and airbag in the front seat....

    AC Adapter for Laptop

    I had never considered that. I buy two whenever I get a new laptop and keep one at home and one at work. That way I've got a spare and don't need to keep unplugging them.

    AC Adapter for Laptop

    You're fine, then. The amperage from the wall is often an estimate based on full load. It's also dependent on what the power supply's efficiency is. Sounds like you've got your second power supply.

    AC Adapter for Laptop

    Ditto this. If they're the same brand, you're fine provided the numbers match. If amperage (A) is higher on the older power supply but the voltages match, you're still fine. The battery will draw what it needs so A needs to be close or over. You're actually STILL okay with a lower A but it...

    SWA co-pilot arrested in 737 cockpit for FUI

    I thought they overran in CA somewhere, too, once upon a time.

    Dell Axim

    Just like any other computer, you need to find the software, download it and install it. Sometimes it's free, sometimes you pay for it. Google "Pocket PC software" and search through the links for something that sounds good. Many of the titles have trial versions that may limit game play or...

    Are you using the Advanced Search features? There are more details in there that would help narrow it down. Other than that, I can't really tell you since I don't know.

    I'm not having any issues either. Kent, can you give an example of your search string?

    What can WE do to get more pilots in the air?

    I guess it depends on the listener/driver. I don't do billboards because I'm driving in heavy traffic at higher speeds. I pay attention to the road around me more than billboards. But I've purchased a number of things based on radio ads that sparked research. Among them: my workshop...

    What can WE do to get more pilots in the air?

    No, my wife gave me the discovery flight because we heard the radio ad...and then signed me up for flight lessons after she saw my face when we landed.

    What can WE do to get more pilots in the air?

    One local flight school regularly has Discovery Flight ads close to Father's Day and Christmas. It must be somewhat effective because that's where I got my PPL.

    Training cats?

    I am not following my cat around waiting for it to take a crap and pick up after it. Animals don't belong on furniture or counters. I don't see the issue here.

    Training cats?

    My dog doesn't lick my face...for exactly that reason.
