  1. Nice! I always wanted to fish out of there in autumn. I spent a week in the summer fishing there and it was so busy I hated it. However, there were so many areas that looked amazing for pike fishing that I really wanted to head back in autumn. Good to see a report from there.

  2. Plano Box. It's a deep box with no internal compartments. Works great. A Tupperware-type container would be just as good, but the Plano has the right dimensions (identical to 3700 but just taller) to fit in my tackle bag.

    I also have a nice Browning bag that I use sometimes if needed. They are great bags.

  3. Start a petition at www.change.org and I will sign it.

     

    Nestle isn't a very socially responsible corporation. Not that many are.

    goes on an on......

     

    Of course, it's our own fault for buying bottled water in the first place. The biggest scam of the 20th century and just shows how incredibly naive people are.

  4. The biggest issue is with the administration. Most of them are ineffective and unqualified for their jobs. There is absolutely no accountability which gives them free reign to do whatever they want with their "free" money. If this never gets addressed the province will continue to bleed money until it dies.

     

    Physician salaries are insignificant and appears to be becoming a scapegoat for our governments complete lack of corporate governance.

  5. This article is informative.

    Make note of which VPNs operate their own servers and don't use third party companies. The VPN will have no control over what the third party companies do with the servers. The location country of the servers is also important.

     

    If you want complete privacy, use a burner email account and a Visa gift card to set it up.

  6. It is illegal to distribute copyright material, which includes TV shows. When you do so, the ISPs are obligated to send you warning letters. Eventually, you can get fined. Some people just ignore it all though saying it's not worth if for the copyright owners taking you to court and are counting on people to just pay the ~$500 fines. I haven't really been following any of it, so I am not sure of what the outcomes have been.

     

    It is currently "not illegal" to simply download things. However, when you share a file, it becomes illegal. All torrents work by sharing. There are ways to access streamed content, which just sends data to you without sharing, but if you're not technical, you will probably just get frustrated with it all.

     

    To protect yourself from disclosing your IP address and maintain your privacy, you need to use a Virtual Private Network (VPN). Which is basically a remote computer system you pass all the data through and makes it impossible to know what data is being sent/received to which IP address. There are free ones, but they are terrible. You have to pay for a reasonable VPN service. You can find some decent ones that cost $30 to $50US per year.

     

    It's probably better to just look into subscribing to Netflix than bothering with downloading and VPNs etc..

     

    What's a TV box? A media centre like Apple TV or Roku?

  7. No offence to adempsey but both of those shops are automotive repair facilities; like myself. Good shops but they don't do upholstery

    Dixie auto trim has a very long standing reputation for quality work; but they do know how to charge for their services.

     

    Dan.

    No worries. I know nothing about cars and don't even know what a headliner is. Just assumed it was something an auto repair shop could take care of ;)
