What's the battery life if you're working with something like plywood?

How else would a fine be an effective deterrent for a wealthy person?

The national median for a first offender's top-end fine is $200, according to the NHTSA. This amounts to 1.2% of annual income for someone working minimum wage. This guy would literally have to get 450 speeding tickets a year to feel a similar fiscal pain.

The nature of incarceration is two or three fold. Rehabilitation (BS), justice, and public safety. For a non-violent crime I don't have a problem with your logic.

I dont have a problem with this. Most individuals are willing to give up 40 hours per week for 40k per year. However their job is more enjoyable (on…

Worst mechanic story? New guy in town went to get state inspection. Without telling him, he was in the waiting room... they needed to remove a tire to inspect a brake pad. They stripped a lug nut. Obvious solution? Just cut the wheel in half. Somehow talked the customer into paying for a wheel, $325 including…

-29.5 was our low this winter. (South of buffalo). But honestly shit like this is just as rare as hurricanes.

Whoops, I thought all the effective organophosphates were banned. I don't believe they're used in the grape industry anymore. I wonder if the safer formulations (parathion was the gold standard of both effectiveness and danger) are not effective or if they're just not labeled for use on grapes.

We tend to rely on…

Maybe you should do a little research on the harm organic pesticides have caused to humans and the environment. Also, perhaps do a little research on chemicals currently used. Most or all of them are developed for the average Joe. Who else is going to pay $200 a gallon for roundup? Farmers usually just get the…

Beth, awesome article and then you agree with this guy. Pesticide free produce would lead to drought and starvation. The only place you can grow it (unless maybe we develop better GMOs in the future) is a desert. I mean, unless you want to live of kale and cross your fingers there is no powdery mildew or late…

Basically I think it doesn't make sense to extend the term and prepay sooner unless you make a lot of money and have giant student loans. If you just have giant student loans, you'll have to pay them back slowly. If they're not giant, it isn't worth all the effort until it is easier. I went through the process for…

Not sure if Navient has the issue but if you prepay it screwed up the automatic payments with Sallie Mae. Nothing a phone call wouldn't fix, but no fun trying to get them to fix it after a late fee is charged.

Yeah I've never been able to apply it to principal successfully w/o a phone call.

What's worse? The fact that the NCAA requires homelessness or the fact that they're so powerful the homeless guy is required to kiss their ass in his march back out to the park bench where he belongs.

Between the wide strip of shiny plastic and the weird fog lights the SS is pretty weak in a competition like this, at least for me. Engine/Price dont help you here.

If a system rewards people for losing, why would you blame the people. Just change the system. What are we trying to teach our children? To not behave in their best interest? Yeah, w/ their half developed frontal lobes I think they've got a handle on that without the pious judgement of adults that do the same…

Yeah, I protect my OEM carpet mats by not using them. Compared to weathertec they're not high quality BUT replacing them with the car brand logo costs a small fortune. It's nice to have OEMs for resale, but they'll look like crap after one season (unless that season is a dry summer).

Yep. When the carpet starts to disintegrate after 3-4 years.

The nice thing about weathertechs and similar products... they actually protect the area around your floor mat. I have a circle of stains around the floor mat of my older car.
