Can anybody recommend a good shop in Sing to buy decent running shoes? I've gone to various shops like National, etc. but the salespeople know squat about shoes. Most important is looking at the foot type (mine are flat) and recommending a decent fitting pair of running shoes. Please help....

The problem is related to MS Office updates....you must have the MSOcache folder in your root drive to perform the updates. If it's not there, check this link as a first start to create it:

The usual trek is to go to Funan first, check prices for what you want, then go to SLS and haggle to get the best price

Yeah....why are people actually paying for blog space these days? Don't get it since it's all free.

What a disappointment....Carolina sucks

On SuperSports there are re-broadcasts....last night at midnight they showed game five! I'll take Stanley Cup hockey over the World Cup anyday

Now that game six is scheduled for Sunday morning (SG time), anybody know if SuperSports will be doing a live broadcast?

Update: Ok my room is finally prepared....blackout curtain along the rear wall and confirmed the max dimensions for the screen on the front wall relative to the throw distance of the projector. I'm going with a Stewart Firehawk screen up front (82" diagonal). I've got two (very comfortable) recliner...

I hear you bigfil....most everybody says I should just save the money and go to the movies instead :o Haha...but I'm commited to doing the best job possible on my home theater, then I'll demo the demon of my wares! It's not just about 5.1 or 7.1 channel movies, it's also listening to music on two ch...

Thanks for the tips. Walking into the Adelphi is like fresh meat to the wolves! haha...well, not that bad, but it can be difficult to get good objective advice there. I was hoping there might be some other shops (that are not in the Adelphi or SLS) where the owners really know their stuff. Agree wit...

Happy New Year to all! I'm in the process of putting together all of the components for a home theater. I'm planning to DIY the whole thing so I'm looking for some assistance from others who have gone through this process or are also in the planning stage. Any advice or comments are appreciated. I'v...

Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated. I was out looking at the 436 yesterday, but the shops never hook up standard cable TV to the units (for obvious reasons :roll: ) so it's not possible to gauge the quality across the units with low rez signals. I understand that the 436 has noise reduction t...

Light, I'm also thinking of getting the exact same 43" Pioneer plasma. Would you say that sitting about 10 to 12 feet away is too close wrt the noise from standard cable that you mention? However, my primary objective is to use the plasma as a video monitor for my pc (in addition to TV via cable and...
