Has anybody pre-ordered Windows 7 yet? If you order it from the Microsoft Store, there’s a substantial discount. It seems that other retailers such as Amazon, Fry’s, Newegg, and Wal-Mart are also doing discounted pre-orders.

It appears that Adam Savage, host of the Discovery Channel show Mythbusters, has accumulated quite a large bill from AT&T.
$11,000 worth of roaming charges. Yikes. Since it’s twitter and he’s limited on space, Adam didn’t specify whether it was US AT&T Wireless or Rogers AT&T Canada, but it’s most likely the US one. A little more reading indicates that it wasn’t actually his wireless phone, but the AT&T USB Connect modem.
It oughta be interesting to see what happens. He says that currently AT&T has shut his service off and is demanding a check for $11,000. I’m not sure if he was just too close to the border or if he was actually in Canada when the alleged roaming occurred. Regardless, that’s quite a substantial bill.
Even with today’s ‘nationwide’ plans, it’s still a good idea to check with your wireless carrier before traveling to make sure that you’re unlikely to get hit with roaming charges.

Symptoms can include heavy sweating, dizziness, nausea, low grade fever, headache, and dark colored urine. Heat Exhaustion can quickly turn into the more serious heatstroke, so it’s important to prevent that from happening.
These and other tips can be found at the Mayo Clinic website.

Preparing the dough:
On the grill:
Sausage pizza:
Pepperoni pizza:
Cheese pizza:
Not only was it delicious it was a lot of fun to make. (Ok, I stood around and drank beer, but it was fun to watch and even more fun to eat!) Also a lot cheaper than going out to pizza, and most definitely healthier too. The sauce was a simple mix of tomato sauce and some light spices and the other ingredients were all fresh as well.
