    college of engineering

    That's definitely a good way to make an impression, but I've laid out a different approach, because I'm ready for a change from the big pond to a much smaller one. Instead of clawing my way through a bunch of idiots, I would really like to take ownership of a run down quality department or...

    college of engineering

    I'm a technical service rep for a chemical company. I work directly with customers to determine their specific needs and formulate dedicated adhesives for each site, work within my company for process optimization/streamlining, Six Sigma Greenbelt certified, etc. and pull down a little over...

    Wierd light on my dash!!!

    If there's one thing I've learned it's that a 7M is not a good choice for the lazy. Better get used to popping the hood for oil checks on a regular basis at the very least. :)

    college of engineering

    Clip, I hope you hear me on this one. If you don't like math then go find something else to do! I didn't really choose a career that fits my personality, I'm degreed (bs & ms), 11 1/2 years with the same company, and so specialized that it's been really hard getting other work. I started in...

    Yeah!!!! I wasn't looking for any compensation, just a heartfelt word of thanks will do. I would like thank the 'shithead' who inspired me: JAY! Really man, thanks! :sarcasm:

    New in Home Defence

    And I was simply using VK's own words to say that killing would be the last resort - not that there would be virtually any chance of 'disarming' him, which is why I put it in quotes. ;)

    New in Home Defence

    I can say with 100% certainty that I would prefer to 'disarm' an intruder, and better yet keep him at gun point until the police arrived, because even though I have several firearms in the home and on me virtually all the time, I hope to never HAVE to kill anybody. The thing is, people tend...

    New in Home Defence

    I don't think a criminal breaking into my house is going to give me an opportunity for an interview so we can review his rap sheet and make a determination of his intent. If somebody is willing to commit a serious felony with complete disregard for the law and break into my house, I am more...

    Everybody's bashing on use of a safe, so here's my take on it. My CCDW instructor was very clear on the importance of: 1. NOT having your weapon under your pillow or even on the nightstand. Why? Because it takes a few seconds of activity to clear your mind enough to make life/death...

    New in Home Defence

    If a criminal, breaks into my house with little to no regard for me or my family, I would have no problem making sure my wife and children are left unharmed and that I will be there with them. Easy question. Now here's a tough one: Could YOU live with letting somebody hurt or kill any...

    Birds birds birds! (No, I don't mean the radiator kind)

    The best bird I ever his was in my Saturn about 4 years ago. It flew up over my hood as I was doing about 60 pulling onto the freeway. I thought it was clear and then it hit the antenna, which slapped the windshield like a whip and left it with a permanent kink in it. In my rearview mirror...

    Hey everyone

    According to the VIN they would see it as NA, right? I wouldn't be any more likely to tell my insurance company of performance upgrades than I would be to tell them about my latest speeding ticket. As it is, my insurance didn't go up a single penny, and I went from a '97 Saturn base model to a...

    Smooth bore shotgun with a barrel under 18" is illegal. The beauty of the Judge is that it is legal everywhere because of the rifling. Hey, gun laws have rarely, if ever, been the product of common sense. I think this thing is ideal for home defense, and if I could get my wife on board with...

    Another...BHG question

    The quickest check for a coolant into the oil would be to look for the chocolate milkshake on the dipstick and under the oil cap. Do a search on rod knock, because there's a ton of threads on it, but as I remember, it is common in the 2500 to 3000 rpm range. My BHG was more of a weeping...

    ***OFFICIAL*** Chris Hansen Thread

    I voted other and was going to say "Dr. Laura", but I've reconsidered. I don't think they would disagree and it would be boring. I guess I still need a suggestion, so... Ron Jeremy? I'd watch that :)

    2007 Ohio Supra Meet Pics

    You embarrass me, Aaron. That said it's even sexier now that it doesn't look like I put a lift kit in it! :-p And no, I still don't have any pics yet - maybe soon, because I just put a fresh coat of wax on this weekend. Ohio was definitely a good time with some beautiful cars...

    code 31...check resistance

    The "m" refers to millivolts, so you have indicated three ranges: 20 volts 2 volts (equals 2000 mV) 0.2 volts (equals 200 mV) As you switch between ranges you will see the decimal point move accordingly on the screen. A range of 200 mV will be extremely sensitive, but worthless at 10 to...
