    I'm of the "you break it, you pay for it" school, and I'd make whoever drilled through the head pay for ever penny of it.

    Chavis Charter death ruled suicide by autopsy report

    This is one I've been keeping up with, since I know a few people in Jonesboro and have spent a lot of time there. There were three people in the car that was stopped that night. Carter was the one driving. Small amounts of marijuana were found on all three men, plus some other paraphernalia...

    All DVD authoring software will do that, like: Nero Roxio MyDVD Creator at about $70 Cyberlink's PowerProducer program, a part of their PowerDVD bundle at $50 Adobe Encore ($350 I think). Sony DVD Architect Studio is a good one at about $40. Read this over for how to do it in Nero: Maximum...

    US row over Congressman Todd Akin's rape remark

    The BBC covers America better than America does. For some reason, the people in England are more concerned with what happens here than we are. And isn't that sad. The only time we see reports of anything going on in England is when there's a riot in the streets, or the police there are stalking...

    Custody at Risk After 'Toddlers & Tiaras' Star Wears Controversial Outfit

    I think it was actually quite innocent. It was done in the context of a beauty pageant, on stage in a show, not in the context of everyday wear while shopping at Walmart. I'm actually pretty good about keeping my bra straps from falling out of my top. My boobs, on the other hand....not so much.

    US row over Congressman Todd Akin's rape remark

    People who are unable to mind their own business can always justify doing so. Somehow.

    Custody at Risk After 'Toddlers & Tiaras' Star Wears Controversial Outfit

    If the father gets custody over this it will indeed set a dangerous precedent. It then becomes no longer an issue of what's best for the child or whether the custodial parent is an unfit parent, it becomes an issue of "you're not doing it right" in a realm where right and wrong are purely...

    US row over Congressman Todd Akin's rape remark

    I get a kick out of people without a womb telling those with wombs what they can and cannot do with them.

    Custody at Risk After 'Toddlers & Tiaras' Star Wears Controversial Outfit

    So what's the serious point in the argument? That a mother shouldn't be able to raise her child any way she sees fit, and that others should be able to impose their own set of morals and standards of behavior onto someone else, simply because they don't agree with it? Is the point that when you...

    Stupid or Dangerous?

    False premise, actually. CFR Title 14, Section 1211, known as the "Extraterrestrial Exposure" law was removed from the CFR in 1991 after NASA having determined that it had "served its purpose" and was "no longer in keeping with current policy," and is no longer in force. Title 14, Section...

    Looking to bring a cargo van on with a carrier.

    I don't blame you. The cargo van and Sprinter guys who post here tend to be pretty rough looking. Except ebsprintin and xiggi, of course, they're pretty boys.

    You will not like these foods.

    Yeah, not all calories are created equal. Get your calories from fruits and vegetables and for the most part you can stop counting calories. Another one is something the Chinese have know for centuries is: eat your vegetables first, and you'll end up eating less. The vegetables are higher in...

    Looking to bring a cargo van on with a carrier.

    A bigger cargo van or Sprinter is better, for comfort if nothing else. If you're not comfortable in the van, you won't want to spend a lot of time in it, and you need to spend a lot of time in it to make any money. In a cargo van you need room to haul at least two pallets of 48x48x48, plus...

    You will not like these foods.

    I was recently diagnosed with elevated blood sugar, which is a euphemism for three and a half times the normal level and an A1c of eleven. It required a radical change of diet, as the prospect of having to go on insulin is not an option. The diet is basically the caveman food of the Atkins Diet...

    Things we use to help with mpg?

    Costco has nitrogen at most locations, I think. There is a dealer locator at the Get Nitrogen Institute that can be helpful. It doesn't list every place that has it, only those who are members of the Get Nitrogen Institute. St. Lucie Tire and Battery in Ft. Pierce has it, I know that because I...

    Thursday, August 16, 2012 Pentagon says reports Russian Akula in Gulf of Mexico don't hold water. MOSCOW TIMES: Observers on Thursday cast doubt on a news report that a Russian nuclear submarine traveled undetected for up to a month in the Gulf of Mexico, while...

    Things we use to help with mpg?

    Nitrogen in the tires, which keeps them properly inflated for longer. Air Tabs, which dramatically reduces drag. Power Service Gray or a cetane booster to 50 cetane, or 50 cetane fuel like at most TAs.

    Best Starting battery for a gm van.

    AGM isn't necessarily better for a starting battery. The key to any battery is to match the battery that's designed for what you want to use it for. If it's a starting battery, you really don't need any deep cycle functionality, so the extra expense of AGM may or may not be worth it. AGMs of...
