Wow what a surprise. An end of an era. Thanks to Ian and Jan for establishing and supporting such an incredible site. Thanks to Sim and all the moderators for keeping the site going and the forums clean from the spammy riff raff. A big thanks to the entire community for making this site such a...

Well done Lizzie! Is the harvest as much as you expected or planned for?

Fair enough, I'll try to make it a bit clearer. 1) Investment income > investment expenses + personal living expenses (inc mortgage) = Buy a bigger house now. Kids get a room each. 2) Investment income < investment expenses + personal living expenses (inc mortgage) = Hold off on bigger...

When they are young, I don't see the big deal. We actually moved out of our PPOR and into a short term rental (This year the school age kids are at different schools, next they'll be at the same one). We have 3 kids, 8 and under, a boy and 2 girls. So for the next 8-9 months, they will all...

FYI for others. There is a free program online (similar to photoshop) which can help you manipulate photos. http://pixlr.com/editor/ Go to pixlr and open the image you want (from the web or your pc). Once it is open, go to the Image menu and choose "Image Size". Here you can set pixel width...

He'll still have to use his grandparents hearing aid to hear it. ;) Maybe try "etrg" for a better bit rate and sometimes, even a better sample rate. Though he would have to put up with an avi file.

Good luck with your business. From what i've seen of your postings over the years, I'm sure you will make a great go of it. Have you considered putting a 'coming soon' template for your website in the interim. It's much nicer to have a coming soon or launching on date page to help with...

A great website is Khan Academy. On it, he teaches many things and you can do little quizzes at the end. He breaks done the complexity rather well. It is 100% free, you don't have to sign up to view/do anything. If you want to keep track of your progress though, it is worth signing up. If I...

Isn't it a little hypocritical of them. Culturally it appears they are all for guns as adults, kids see this and accept it as a way of life. Then kids go to school and get punished for acting out what they perceive their elders to be doing and talking about (and in some incidences, no doubt...

Thank you for the link.

At the bottom of the front page gives an indication of the minimum eye balls looking at this site. "Members: 310,877, Active Members: 12,892" Some would call that 'in the thousands'. ;)

Thanks for uploading the report, very interesting indeed. You wouldn't happen to have the annual report from 2010 would you? If you do, could you upload that also?

I'd be surprised if they were voted out in one term. The last time we had a one term government was back at the great depression (Scullin). http://australianpolitics.com/lists/federal-election-dates-and-outcomes

It is a shame that you got hacked and is very much a case of live and learn. Hide your SSID broadcast if you like. Where you need to improve(as you have suggested) is with your password (WiFi passphrase). It has to be a minimum 15 characters and you need to have lower case, upper case, numbers...

Try cheap sheds - www.cheapsheds.com.au They have been around for a while now, operate solely online and are the biggest retailer in the shed industry. Their customer service is pretty good and they source all the sheds locally. They where the first company to supply and deliver (using depots)...
