Problem with only posting pics to some deals, is that if people are accustomed to seeing the deals by skimming through the pics then a deal without pics would be more likely to be ignored.

How can an isreali brand compete in Brooklyn.
Their quality and cust service is probably Israeli.

The American network of "Osher Ad" supermarkets will be managed by a local and an Israeli manager who will relocate to the US. It will operate according to the successful model in Israel

Sounds like a recipe for disaster to me.

No clue if they are available, but they are absolutely excellent. Pretty sure you can hire just the keyboard.

Doesn't always work IME

I can't argue with that, but it works for both me and DW.

How can I avoid windows update from automatically restarting my computer every other night?

Set the Wi-Fi connection as metered and manually install updates

No need to do that, just go to advanced options in windows update and select "notify to schedule restart".

Can I use this if I only have wifi at home?

You will need the obi200 for that.

I use them for both travel and car insurance. I've had numerous claims and all went smoothly.

apparently you punch in the 'fake' tz #, pay the fee and its prints out the paper that says you paid and you bring it to test location. once you pass, they give you another paper that says you passed.

You don't need a paper saying you paid anymore, if you paid it's in the system and they see it at the test location (just did a test last week). They'll send you a new one in the mail that says you paid and past. All you need to bring is the one they sent you in the mail.
