Short answer is a big NO.
The reason is DX lenses on FX camera may give you a worse picture quality than DX Lenese on DX Camera.
This is purely based on my camera. I used to have Nikon D70 with 18-200mm. When I D600 was released, I tried to find recommendations on if we can use DX lense on FX camera. I did not find my answer apparently and went ahead and bought the Nikon D600. After using it with my 18-200 DX lense for a few months and tried all kind of tricks, I couldn't get sharp images. The pictures seemed worse than when I had the lens on the D70. I contacted Nikon and sent them sample photos of from both cameras using the same lens. They told me it was normal. I was shocked but soon realized that I probably should upgrade my lens as well. So I bought the 28-300mm (FX). I can tell you that the image quality is much better than the 18-200mm (DX).
So if you're not sure if you want to upgrade to FX body, ask yourself this question.
Do I also want to upgrade my DX lenses as well.
If the answer is no, I would strongly recommnended you to stay with DX body.
Hope this is helpful.

Dong Hai Chinese Restaurant (Garland, TX)
Yummy Ga Hap Gung (Steamed chicken).
I always comment about restaurants should be using walking chicken (free range) with my wife every time we had a chicken dish at a restaurant and my wife always said they would never do that.
Well, my wish has been granted. Dong Hai uses free range chicken for the steamed chicken dish.
It is so yummmmy. And the price is about the same as other places that uses normal chicken.
I guess only a Chinese-Vietnamese can understand Vietnamese.
I have also tried other dishes like Bot Chien, Hu Tieu Xao (Chow fun), Fried pork chops and they all ranging from OK to good.
Saw a few people eating Bo Luc Lac (Shacking beef). Will definitely try it next time.

List of Craigslist Scammers and Spammers
I have had it with these scammers on Craigslist.
At first, I didn't know what to do until I saw this blog: http://craigslistscammer.blogspot.com/2009/03/mess-with-scammers-once-you-know-its.html .
That made me want start a new blog just in case people can't find his blog.
Here is what I have so far. Post the emails that you think are from scammers on the comments section including the scammer 'fake' names and email addresses so when people do a search on google, they can find your comments.
Also, if you see an email with just your item and no question or something that does not make sense, don't reply to those emails. It is most likely from the spammers/scammers and they want to get your email address. A lot of time, you would get an email from a different email address after you replied to them.
Read more about scams on craigslist here:
http://www.craigslist.org/about/scams
IMPORTANT:
- What ever you do, do NOT click on the links or open the pictures or reply to them.
In dealing with this, I would strongly recommend using an email address other than your personal one to avoid spams in your mail box in the future.
- If the buyer want to come by your house to pick up the item, never give out your address until you have confirmed that they're not a scam.
- Never tell the buyer when you're away from home especially when you have given out your address.
- Don't let the buyer come into your house and always have others watching you from the inside of your house with a defensive equipment and a phone ready to dial 911 if needed.
- Don't forget to click on the Craigslist link to report them as scam/spam.

Is your piece still offered? Umm...this might be odd but you seem extremely hot in your listing. Do you want to get coffee sometimes? I promise I'm not a weirdo, just feeling lonely. If you're interested, meet me on my private dating profile (it's like facebook for adults), there's no cost to sign up! My pics and my phone # are all on there so get in touch with me. There are too many phonies on here so if you're real call me and maybe we can meet to become friends and maybe more? You never know! Okay, I won't bother you again! You'll be taken aback to find out who I am! :)

Hey, is your listing still valid? I need far more information on it please. I've been struggling to find something same for very long time so not sure if it's the one. I uploaded a video of what I'm desiring to buy along with my personal information so can you make sure if they are the same thing or not?
It would be bad to meet you in person and then find out they are totally different. By the way, I ONLY deal with adults so erase this email if you are a young kid trying to scam me, I'll not fall for that. You do have to sign up to see the video to verify you're real and legal of age but no worries, there's no cost to join. Anyways, message me on there so we can proceed. Thank you!

Problems upgrading Lenovo Tablet (A1_07) to Android Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS) 4.0.4
Just went through upgrading my Lenovo tablet (A1_07 to Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS) 4.0.4.
Ran into a couple of problems and just want to throw it out there just in case someone has the same problems.
The problem was installation. Apparently someone did not do a thorough QA on this.I had to try many times to get the it installed and boot up. First few time, it would just boot to "android" screen after the the installation and stuck there. I tried a few times and it stuck at the same place. I also tried some other suggestions from other sites but nothing works.
I was frustrated and put the version 2.3.4 back (and it was working fine). I then gave the upgrade one last time and amazingly, it got installed and boot up fine but it wouldn't recognize all of the internal memory and my external micro SD card. It only recognize 2GB of the 16GB internal memory.
Just as an experiment, I tried the "Factory Data Reset" and that resolved the problem.
I couldn't be happier.

Sharkarosa Wildlife Ranch (Pilot Point, TX)
A Fun Place for Kids.
This place is not big or has as many animals as a normal zoo but it has what other zoo may not have.
Down to earth fun for the little ones.
The Tram ride was great where you can see animal up close. Literally next to you and you can pet them as they eat the food from the baskets hanging on the side. You can see Zebras, Camels, Cangaroo and others.
The Barrel train was a blast for my 3 and 5 year old. They also have petting zoo with cute little sheeps, bigs, rabbits and others. They were adorable. They also have up close encounter with snake. They have a number of endangered species.
Over all I was pleasantly surprised with all they have to offer in such a place so close to home.
My kids already wanted to go back again.
Also, the food was great.
BTW, Groupon is running a 50% off right now which make it even a better deal.

MWAVE.com selling refurbished hard drive as NEW
WARNING: Stay away from MWave.com.

Got the Seagate hard drive from MWAVE.com a few months ago. When I received the package, the hard drive was just wrapped in bubble wrap. No box. I had a little doubt but gave it a try any way. Well, the hard drive failed after 1 week of using. Contacted MWave and get it replaced. The replacement hard drive came exactly as the first one, bubble wrapped without original box. The hard drive failed again after a few weeks. I tried to contact them again but they never got back to me. I contacted American Express to resolve the issue but MWave.com lied to Amex about me being not contacting them. Well I figure I would give them another chance and contact them again to get a refund. This time, I got the email with the RMA# but it was only for return/exchange. I called them up and they told me that they couldn't issue a refund because it has been more than 30 days since I purchased it. I also mentioned about the product does not come with the original box and the girl told me that they do send out refurbished products. I think what I got is a refurbished product and NOT a new one. I wanted to talk to her manager but she said the guy was out for lunch...at 2:30pm. I also asked to get the replacement in a different brand but she said theycouldn't do that.
Anyway, I'm going to try again with Amex and see if they can help me.
Advice:
If you have not buy anything from MWave.com, do NOT buy from them.
If you did and got a defect product, get a refund. Don't go through what I have been through.
