RowdyKittens — social change through simple living

How to Find a Cheap Flight The era of dirt-cheap travel is over, and, when the flight can represent the biggest part of your trip expenses, finding that hidden cheap deal can be just as important as finding the right location, the right tour company, the right backpack, or the right place to stay. Rising oil costs, increased personnel costs, and material costs have all added to rising ticket fares. Bankruptcy has also meant that airlines, which are under pressure to make a profit, can’t reduce fares as much and limited competition has given them less incentive to do so. Moreover, since airlines have slashed routes and capacity, they are flying full planes. It’s a constant battle to find a cheap ticket but there are ways to avoid being the person who paid the most on your flight. Here are a few tips that can help you find cheap flights and flight deals: Be Flexible with Your Travel Dates Be Flexible with Your Destinations Instead of going to place with an expensive flight, go where it is the cheapest.

TINY One Thing Well MFW-15 Advice / Questions - Seaton Sound Discussion Forum Well this seems like the place to go for the MFW needs, so thought I would post this up and begin here. I've owned a MFW-15 for a while now, but for a very long time it simply sat there unused due to other matters totally unrelated. It worked, but had a nasty hum -- now just recently it was put back into use and it died. My first reaction was to go back to av123, but to my surprise (horror?) My knowledge of these is really rather limited, so I haven't cracked the thing open yet. Is there a way to tell exactly what is wrong? I went looking around and saw the Turbo upgrade, but that may be a bit pricey right at the moment. I know - a lot of questions, but I appreciate any help to these that anyone can offer.

Clothesline Tiny Homes We have been living in our tiny house full-time since mid-May 2012 – a year and a half now. Sometimes the house feels WAY TOO SMALL and my busy brain starts wondering (again), “WHY are we living like this???” Why don’t we just get a loan? One reason we chose to build our own tiny house was to escape the debt of a MORTGAGE, the typical requirement of home “ownership.” (I use quotes because we often say that we own our homes, but if we’re paying a mortgage, the bank is actually the owner.) Read all of our reasons for going Tiny on our Why Tiny? During one recent period of tiny house discontent I started thinking about interest rates – only 5%!!!! (Personal note: I have never had a mortgage, always rented, primarily due to a deep loathing of debt, and secondarily due to the fact that I never could have gotten the funds needed to buy a condo in L.A. or Denver, especially not after the crash of 2008 – in 2009 I applied for a mortgage loan and was approved for $80k. Tiny house too tiny?

Minimal Mac NEW MFW-15 amps (May 2010) *pics* [Text View] - Page 7 Ok, had a few minutes to spare, ran another test this time using my Frankenstein-MFW with 30hz test tone from BassMekanik V5.0 and the following config. As usual nothing scientific and I wish I had as much time to get into it like Nick did but honestly, all you need to do is perform this simple test, if one has lower output no matter what you do won't help, it needs to be replaced, period. No AVR, I used my Mac Pro at 50% (In OSX Snow Leopard, Windows 7 would need lower volume setting) volume which outputs to a Radio Shack SSM-1750 mixer. It runs into channel one, all tone controls set to flat and channel 1 gain set to 75%, mixer master volume at 50%. Plug in V3 amplifier, run gain at 11 o'clock, start 30hz tone on repeat and hold Rat Shack meter 2ft away. Plug in V1 amplifier (this is the amp that overheats if installed into an MFW), run gain at 11 o'clock, start 30hz tone on repeat and hold rat shack meter 2ft away. Things AV123 could do to improve this amplifier or any amplifier: 1.
