    Help with a buzzing noise in my house!

    Yeah, now that I think about it, that's probably it. I live in a gated community. I can't remember the last time someone rang my doorbell.

    Help with a buzzing noise in my house!

    There is a constant buzzing noise coming from the white box above my thermostat. This is happening on both floors of my house. Anyone know what this box is and what it does? Thanks in advance.

    Hickey Freeman Suit Factory Store vs Nordstrom

    If the ones at the HF store are fully canvassed, go with those. Some of the cheaper mainline HF suits are no longer fully canvassed. If can wait a few weeks, sign up with Gilt Groupe and wait for a sale. HF seems to be on sale every few weeks. You can get HF suits in solid colors for around...

    NBA 2016-2017 Season Thread

    The "r" in "ren" or "ruan" is not really the same as an English "r". More like "z" or "zr"

    NBA 2016-2017 Season Thread

     Yeah, in the Chinese language, there are no words that start with an "r" sound, so the closest variant is an "l". And there are no words that end with an "l" sound, so the closest variant is an "r". That's the reason why so many Chinese get their r's and l's mixed up.

     Speaking of Starbury, there's a nice article about his life in China. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2012/writers/bryan_armen_graham/03/21/stephon-marbury-china/index.html?eref=sihp&sct=hp_t14_a0

    NBA 2016-2017 Season Thread

     Agree that this is probably how Lin will be viewed at the end of the season, but I really think the sky is the limit for him. He's already shown massive improvement from year 1 to year 2. There is a reason he spent a season with the Warriors but never played anything but garbage minutes...

    NBA 2016-2017 Season Thread

    Unlike the n-word, "*****" seems to have offensive connotations to some Chinese, but not to all. Heck, even J-Lin called himself "chinkballa88" back in the day.

    NBA 2016-2017 Season Thread

     For me, the first dunk was the most amazing. It was the perfect combination of creativity and power--before that I had never seen anyone do a reverse 360 dunk, let alone a reverse 360 plus windmill.

     Agree somewhat, but I also think he has worked really hard to improve his game. He averaged, what, 5 assists per game in college? And now he is averaging 8 or 9 against more skilled defenses, albeit in a slightly longer game. I've seen a little bit of film of him in college and he always...

    NWT Polo Ralph Lauren 3 Piece Solid Charcoal Grey Suit, size 40L, fits 38R or 39R SLIM!

    This is a limited time offer resulting from a proxy sale that fell through. The offered price is final. If this thing is not sold by Wednesday, I'm returning it to the retail store. This is a high quality, fashion-forward suit in a staple charcoal grey. Fits slim! Marked size 40L, but fits...

    NBA 2016-2017 Season Thread

     My point was that if commentators say things like "Lin is sneaky fast," there is a reason for that. It's hard to ignore the fact that Asian-Americans are typically shorter, slower, and can't jump as high as blacks or whites. It's just like how people say Wes Welker and Jordy Nelson are...

    NBA 2016-2017 Season Thread

     A significant reason that Lin is blowing up as much as he is, is of his race. The others are his basketball abilities and the fact that he is in NY, and to a lesser extent, that he went to Harvard. Yet you will notice some commentators make an effort to paint the underdog story strictly...

    Tebow comparisons are okay. I just read an article that compared Lin to Rick Santorum! :brick:

    Hugo Boss Suit - Does not look good after being tailored. Need advice

     +1. Make sure your dress shirt cuffs are the right length first. The cuffs on the shirt you were wearing in Page 1 were too loose, and thus, too long.

    PSA: PRL suits in staple colors at Houston Marshall's $499

    Usually only the Galleria location has any SF-worthy stuff. Although over the winter holidays I did see quite a bit of Diesel and Rag & Bone in the clearance sections in a couple of Marshall's around town.

    PSA: PRL suits in staple colors at Houston Marshall's $499

    I stopped by the local Marshall's tonight (Houston Galleria location) and came across a nice collection of Polo Ralph Lauren suits in staple colors in initially appeared to be my size. But alas, they were the smallish Bradford model, so actually none ended up in my size. If anyone's...

    Law Schools - Where and Why?

    Now that I think about it, the curve doesn't matter as much if you are applying into Big Law, as Big Law recruiters have separate GPA cut-offs for each school. But for a smaller firm who may not be as savvy with the inflation games that law schools play, an inflated 3.6 from a Top 20 school...

    Law Schools - Where and Why?

    Texas. Attorneys would tell me that a B+ curve was inflated, and back in the day, the median grade used to be a B.

    Law Schools - Where and Why?

     Late to the discussion here... What's the curve at nowadays? Back when I was in law school from 05-08, we were on an B+ curve, meaning the median grade point was a 3.3.
