    How Accurate is CreditKarma's FICO Score Model?

    What is the source of the RMCR, is it a different algorithm than the ones used by the major bureaus or do they use one specific source?

    Recessed Lighting Install After Close

    I've seen this with a few other contractors, apparently the LED pricing is an integrated housing and light and provides a cleaner look v/s the incandescent one is just your standard recessed housing where you can add a bulb. I'd think that one could go with the incandescent housing and get their...

    Obamacare on Life Support article

    It seems you live in a bubble. Most people in living in Irvine don't fall in this category, but that doesn't change the reality of other areas. My wife works at school in a low income neighborhood where parents come to drop off their kids in a Cadillac Escalade and their kids in elementary...

    Obamacare on Life Support article

    Completely agree with you. Everyone has seen people that drive nice cars, own iPhone, wear designer labels while they work at McDs. A lot of these people are the ones for whom we pay for healthcare as a society, we pay for their kids lunch meals at schools, in addition to after school and before...

    President Trump

    I think this is an excellent point. Such things happen no matter who is in power. Hate crimes happened when Obama was in power as well, blaming the current POTUS for actions of an individual is not valid. The individual might agree with certain views of Trump, doesn't mean that this individual...

    Planning our next vacation

    Our favorites are Maui and Big Island. Oahu is just like being in So Cal, nice but when on a vacation most people prefer something different than home. Maui has nicer beaches, beautiful hikes and amazing drive up to Hana. Big Island on the other hand has the active volcano, the southern most...

    Immigration Ban

    This is hindsight 20/20. During times of war people were fearful and not trusting. During WW2 we interned Japanese Americans fearing that they were supplying information to the enemy. Fear can drive people to make irrational decisions. I think most people that disagree with the ban don't want...

    Immigration Ban

    Do you think that was true of the Vietnamese refugees during the  Vietnam war or the German refugees after the WW2?

    Immigration Ban

    A lot of people I know came to this country this way, including my in-laws (who are also for the ban). They waited for their turn in line, but they were fortunate that they were able to wait, i.e. they were not from a war torn country. This discussion is not about these types of immigrants, but...

    Homeowners Insurance property damage claim

    It seems that you are replying to older posts with a link to your business. I think you should become a site sponsor instead of just trying to get free adverts by posting information.

    Presidential Elections

    Agree with IHO completely. Would like some change, but not Trump. Would like a woman president, but not Hillary. This will probably the worst election to vote in at the Presidential level (I know our vote really doesn't "count").

    Cops at OH Strada

    For a camera system, check out https://blinkforhome.com/. It is a wireless camera system with great battery life, affordable and can record clips without paying for subscriptions. I've tried a variety of cameras (Foscam, Nest, DLink, Arlo, no name Chinese brands, etc.) and of all I think the...
