I'm religious when it comes to my skin. No oily foods, no dairy products(cheese sometimes), and only diet sodas here and there, no juices either.
Why no juice? Do certain fruits affect the pigment coloration of your skin? I know carrots are notorious for that.
Juices usually contain HFCS(high-fructose corn syrup), an artificial sweetener/preservative, which is horrible for skin and your blood sugar levels. Even if they don't have HFCS, the amount of regular sugar outweighs any health benefits.
I stick to green tea, water and occasionally a diet soda. i actualy squeeze my own juice. better than the pancake syrup they sell as 'all natural juice' in the stores. and i love green tea

I desperately need a new router as the one I have is a bit overloaded as far as bandwidth allocation goes. Debating between this model and this model.
Bumping because I could use some advice as to which I should purchase, unless you have a better model in mind?

ew linksys

Bad experience with them?
Only horror stories I've read up so far is their tech support being outsourced to India; but then again what company hasn't done that?

I'd say ew wireless before before ew linksys.
Would love to help you but I stay away from wireless, so I have no idea what a good wireless router is.

If I lived in a single floor home, I'd agree with you, but this simply isn't an option based on the layout. I just know I need a new one because the one I still have is a cheap Belkin POS that still runs by 802.11B protocol (in other words, slow as hell and short range). Not to mention having 3 PCs, 3 gaming systems and 2 smart phones with constant access to it, the payout has far reached it's limit in capacity to say the least.

Linksys are generally a bit more overpriced than some of their competitors. However, technical/customer support & manufacturer's warranty is superb with Linksys/Cisco. So thats something to take in mind.
Also installation on Linksys routers is a brain-dead operation. If you know how to install a router pretty well I suggest going with another brand. Otherwise, nothing wrong with buying a Linksys.

I usually bypass overpriced suggested retail prices with Newegg based on their sales and blowouts. Not to mention shipping is either cheap or free in most cases. Paying $60-90 for a newish model, especially a dual band is a good deal IMO.
Hell, even Amazon beats out Newegg at times. The higher end model is only $80 there.
But between those two models, would you say the more expensive one is worth the extra bells and whistles for $30 more?

If you have a lot of wireless household phones in the house I'd say yes. Otherwise no. Also do your computers support 5ghz? If not no point in purchasing dualband

I have yet to hear anything awful about Linksys. Though I have used Belkin for a long time and have had minimal troubles. Though I think the problem with my internet right now is a combination of using a dated and overloaded router with awful intermittent service from my ISP. Hopefully a new router will at least alleviate some bottlenecking and restore balanced bandwidth allocation with increased range. The other however, depends solely on how competent my ISP is; and it's not looking good.

Currently have 2 (soon to be 3) smart phones using Wifi.
Also have 3 PCs, and 3 gaming systems hooked up to it too.
Though wouldn't the 5ghz support be based mostly on the antenna adapter plugged in your PC? Or is it based on something else?

Dual bands broadcast in 2.4 and 5ghz ranges. When I say wireless phones I'm talking strictly about 2.4ghz phones that can interfere with non-dual-band wireless routers.
5ghz support on pc and devices is based on the adapter yes.

did I say stick
I meant this.
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
