Movember - Tom Selleck & The Magnums

Hi Guys,
Don't know if any other countries do this but in OZ the month of November is now known as MOvember.
Why, you ask?
MOvember is the month when guys grow moustaches to raise funds for research into Prostate Cancer and Male Depression.
A few guys at work and I have formed a posse - Tom Selleck and The Magnums - and put together the following website -
www.tomselleckandthemagnums.com
in order to garner support for our Mo growing exploits.
Please check it out and if you could spare a few $$$ it will be going to a good cause.
Cheers!
Justin.
PS: I'm the ugly bugger on the bottom left of the donate page.
down in the south some people do "no shave november" -GUYS AND GIRLS-
its sick, and maybe it came from cancer research, but everyone down here i think just does it because they are lazy (because i've never heard of the whole raise money for cancer and don't shave thing)....

Best Vacation Spots

My family and I are going to go out of town with my cousins for Spring Break but we don't know where to go. We live in Chicago, IL and we can't fly so we need somewhere we can drive to. Probably like 4 - 5 hours drive from here. Any ideas? Thanks.
Have you been to Niagara Falls?
What type of vacationer are you? I'm a beach and big city guy.

Honestly, Niagra Falls in 9-Hours away and weve been there before. It's 9 of us so I can't tell you exactly, but we wantd to go to Missouri but it didnt work out. somewhere with like, cabins and such. Somewhere good for Spring Break.

Hmm, from Chicago, let me think here.
I hear that Nashville and Memphis have a really fun nightlife.
Cedar Point, although I'm not that big into rollercoasters.
My good friend said he loved Indianapolis, but I don't believe him.
Cleveland and Detroit are dumps.
Pittsburgh is fun, but smaller than Chicago.
I'm sure you've been to St. Louis many times.
No I've just moved here actually... and from Detroit too. Loll. But yeah. I don't know. We have to get away for lik, 3 nights. So idkk.
When are you going? Honestly, if you're into rollercoasters and the weather is nice, go to Cedar Point.
If you're not into that and into cities or beaches...
Beaches...good luck. The great lakes are TERRIBLE places for beaches. Might as well fly to the coast.
Cities...I recommend going to St. Louis, Nashville, or Memphis. All cities, I'd definitely visit and all are said to have a good nightlife and regional cuisine.

Stanley Cup Finals

Who are you rooting for? Me? Canucks, usually a Rangers fan, but enemy of my my enemy is my friend. I hope the Bs lose, they knocked the Rangers out if first rounds, and hurt Callahan breaking his leg.
I used to be a huge hockey fan but I lost interest. I guess the Canadian inside me is rooting for the Canucks /lack of Canadian pride, hahaha.
Definitely the 'Nucks for me!!
Lost interest when the Red Wings got knocked out. At leas San Jose isn't there!
I found my love of hockey when I was living in Calgary during the 2002 Olympics. Definitely supporting the 'Nucks. I live in NW WA now, and can even get a couple radio stations out of Vancouver.
The Bruins have enough cups, dammit.

Same here! If I have to say I would rather the Nucks win. I don't really care for Boston.
3 more wins! No reason we shouldn't win. Canucks are way too deep for Boston to handle.

My LTE Speedtest Results in San Antonio

My LTE Speedtest Results in San Antonio
Wow. Nice speed there. I'll have to take a drive to San Antonio this weekend just to mess around with my phone lol.
The highest I have seen with a phone in Dallas is 46/14 and with the USB dongle 46/24.
I am more impressed with the latency. It usually runs ~55ms. That really blows UMTS out of the water and makes web pages load *much* faster.
I got some decent speeds in Dallas. Including a consistent 25 and 26 up with one and 2 bars as well as 45 up a few times on full bars.

Gotta love living in the 210!!
LoL I just realized something. Everyone posting in here is some where in Texas.
Yah for some reason they love to deploy it in Texas which I have no idea why? You would think you would deploy this in the bigger cities first. I don't see why Washington D.C., etc. wouldn't be a top priority.

Just a shot in the dark here but... Would you want to create a new product that may or may not work 100% out of the gate in a large or small city?
If they have problems in the beginning, it's much less newsworthy in San Antonio than say New York City.
Make sense if you think about it.
I have created and launched technical products before and I can tell you that the last thing I wanted to do is sell it to a huge customer right out of the gate. Better to mess up in the small cities with fewer customers than to have an Epic fail in a large city.

Oh and I think it might have a little to do with the fact that their headquarters are here in Texas (Dallas) and lots of corporate operations still here in San Antonio.

That has more to do with it than anything.
Dallas is the 4th largest city in the US. And here are my results

WOW!!! Wish I had LTE here... I've been trying to find a roll out schedule for the rest of the country but can only find select cities (all large). Tell me... is your data consistent on LTE? I often try to use data (browser, speed test, insert other random app here) and get NO data connection at all... I have manually put in a second APN which seems to help but it's flaky at best.
Thanx

I've seen my connection drop to hspa+ maybe twice since Monday when I got the phone and even that was only for a moment. So yes the speeds are incredibly consistent. From what I understand, Dallas' lte covers a 240 mile radius.

Do you happen to know where you found this info? I'm looking for something similar for the Atlanta area but can't find it. I know LTE is working about 25 miles north of the city but that's all I know for now.

I was told by a rep at the AT&T store. I was glad I got to talk to him because most of the time I deal with idiots there. He seemed to know his stuff.

I'd like to know your opinion about my country

Hello,
A a Colombian citizen I would like to know what you people think about my country
well I would say don't judge based on TV series as television tend to exaggerate things to gain audience
To be frank nothing really. Why would you even ask that? Each country in the world from Micro to Macro level is contributing to human lives.
Whenever someone reminds me of Colombia I always end up thinking of the Amazon & Colombian Rainforest
Doesn't Columbia have snow capped rocky mountains and is in South America. That's all I know/care about. But I live in Australia which is pretty far away.
I know a bit since there a lot colombians here in spain

i will travel to your country next year
Pablo Escobar ; -)
I don’t know too much about your country. I only know about your football team and Shakira. James and Falcao are my favorite players.
Coffee
To be more precise, coffee plantations that produce crap, okay, good and really good coffee beans (something for everyone I guess).
Not much
But I could imagine the weathers real nice. Being the fact you guys are South America. Aint that like tropical climate are something. I personally would love that Weather year round. Where I'm at its cold about 6 months out of the year, kinda warm about 3 and then so-so for the other 3 months. This time of year is about Winter for us, but actually these last few days have been rather warm actually. Other than that Coffe, Shakira, Cocaine( could be Bolivia I'm thinking with that), and Nice weather are about what I think comes to mind when I think Colombia. I always thought they were warm over there. Didn't know they had snow capped mountains ( you learn something new everyday).

Hello
Yes Have 2
Sierra nevada santa marta and Nevado del ruiz
Cocaine. Drug lords.
Than again I was born in Puerto Rico all I think of from there is Rum and lazy people.
Raised in the states. But everywhere has there stereotypes. I've heard it's a nice place.
Cool
Cool. Although I'd rather opt for the warmer parts. Don't really like the snow and the cold. got about three more months off this stuff left to go.

Understand Here In Cucuta Temp Is Very Hot
even more of a reason for me to like it.
Love warm weather. I wish it could be like that all year here. I hate this cold part of the year here. Allergies, colds, flus and all that crap. I can't wait till these next three months fly by so it can warm up.
see on televisión is doing very cold in usa
Yup its that time of year over here.
Colombia, well i remember your national soccer team goalkeeper, it was a dude with a lot of hair . Ofcourse, Pablo Escobar and the well known coffee
The only thing I know about Columbia is that it's home to wicked drug lords that make billions and live in mansions and have pet tigers.
I would love to make a visit.. Can't judge something I havn't seen or felt.
