You can see there's some debris at the 21 second mark just on the side of the road. It looks like the rear tires got caught on it. You can see it, it's right under the beam.

Way dude. Put it in first and enjoy coasting down to the bottom before your friends!

Check out Old Priest Grade. It was the only way to Yosemite from the 120 for a while and it goes straight up, no turns. On the way down, plenty of people ride their brakes until they lose them.

It just seems to be a bad time to be a journalist. You need to write in hyperbole and exclamations all the time to get the views and make your nut. I can see why it fucks up people's perception and mind when they write for blogs. I think Mr. Ballaban has written some wonderful car articles but the same voice…

Why did I put them in boxes?

You clearly missed my point. Saying that they "used" human shields is not the same as saying "our neighbors came to form a human shield."

"The first is Israeli missile defense systems, and the second is the Palestinian use of human shields."

Those look intense, and they should. The officers shown in the photos are mostly part of the Chengdu police SWAT team. While these photos look super cereal, the Chengdu police force did a complete 180 and posted another set of recruitment photos. These new photos, posted on Saturday, show a much more "fun" and…

Seems like the centripetal acceleration would try to throw you off the back of a Cam Am like a bull. Just doesn't feel right. Maybe someone who has actually ridden one can comment?

Automator is the man.

What makes rally so interesting it that the cars you see in competition are all street legal, and built up off what's on the showroom floor.

Virgin desperately needs a SFO to HNL route. Many people fly to Hawaii if they want a short getaway with beaches. It's the same as living on the east coast and going to Florida or Bahamas the fly time is about the same.

Not sure why he should care about this more than the Europeans. It's their backyard. It's about time they spend more of their own money to project power in eastern Europe. Not sure why you're calling him a pussy. It's the same guy that Ok'd SEAL to get Bin Laden. We should stay focused on what's really important…

"Most of times things work in spite of the system not because of it anyway."

In my experience, any time you have an engineering change order, it needs to be documented somehow (part number changes, rev changes, whatever) and the assembly drawing is rev'ed to reflect this (bill of materials on the face of the drawing). This doesn't always happen in many companies because the drawing needs to…

That's cool, I've been doing this for 10 years now. Started as a mechanical engineer and now I'm a structural analyst. This has been my experience with the consumer electronics, automotive, and aerospace industry. Most of my friends are in the same situation except for the ones that work at a small company. …

This sounds pretty naive. No offense, but these opinions sound like they come from a sales guy who over sales on a poorly written contract, collects the commission and moves on to the next customer. I'm not saying you are that guy but that's what it sounds like. As an engineer let me break it down for you.

Google's Uber-love has been building, with the released of an Android-powered driver app for Uber and now the ability to call up an Uber car directly through Google Maps. Just as importantly, by removing the driver from the Uber equation, the company can eliminate those pesky insurance issues it's been having, while…

Heeeyyyyy oooohhhhhh!!!!!

The head is the best part of the shrimp at a legit sushi restaurant. You order a raw shrimp nigri and the head comes fried to a crisp as the next course. It's like eating the skin on fried chicken, super crispy and briny. Kinda like a fried oyster but crispier.
