So, I finally got off my ass and decided to go back to school. :banana: It's been a long time coming, but the 2nd is my last day of work at my current place of employment. Doing a paid internship this summer, which will then become my masters project.
I've been kinda unhappy with my job...
Medical journal: Study linking autism, vaccines is 'elaborate fraud' - CNN.com
Personally, I have to think this Wakefield guy is a fraud. I understand that pharmaceutical companies have a lot of money at stake, but I find it hard to imagine a huge industry-wide cover up of a link between...
So I have a stock midpipe from the cobra sitting in my garage. From what I understand, there is some value to catalytic converters, due to the platinum inside of them. Does anyone here have any idea what these might be worth, and/or where one might go to recycle them? Just from pestering...
I put an MRT catted H-pipe on the car roughly a month and a half ago. Recently, I've noticed a rattling noise coming from the under the car right around where the cats are located. It gets louder as the throttle opens up, but you can often hear it even at idle if you are laying down next to...
"Diamond Eyes" Anybody else have it yet?
**Disclaimer: I've been a huge Deftones fan for about 12 years now so take my opinion with this in mind**
This album is awesome. More along the lines of White Pony than Adrenaline or Around the Fur. I wasn't really optimistic leading up to this...
Ford to add 1,200 workers in Illinois - Jan. 26, 2010
1200 workers in Chicago. Not bad. I would imagine that their 4th quarter results must have been decent.
I searched, but didn't see anything.
Fairly nifty little program...and it's free: http://www.fotosketcher.com/
Some examples I did in about 10 minutes:

Ok, I have something of an odd noise coming from what sounds like either the clutch or the transmission when i'm just getting the car moving in 1st gear. It's kinda hard to describe, but it could be a metal on metal or similar scraping sound. I guess the best way would be if you were to inch...

June auto sales figures raise hope of turnaround - Jul. 1, 2009
Assuming I'm reading this right, only an 11% year over year sales drop for Ford in June. Most automakers look like they were ~25% - ~30% down.
I know I did for the longest time. The two biggest problem areas were the center dash, right around those two middle vents, and the head-liner, also right in the middle. It's a 'vert with FLSFC's, but the noise was getting to be intolerable. The fit between the parts is so loose that the hard...
Anybody else having trouble with this? He's just tough to shop for, unless I want to spend a couple grand. I'd be fine with that, except for the part where I don't have a couple grand. I know he loves his digital camera, speaker stuff, has an '05 Mustang GT (but I'm not sure for how much...
So, some part of my computer seems to have crapped out on me. Basically the stupid thing won't post. The fans and LEDs turn on. The HD sounds like it's at least starting to spin up, but the monitors remain completely blank the whole time, and none of the lights on the keyboard or mouse light...
Just got this in my e-mail. I haven't seen it before, so I thought I'd share.
Things people actually said in court, word for word, taken down and now published by court reporters that had the torment of staying calm while these exchanges were actually taking place...
Ok, tax returns coming soon, and since I'm one of the few slow ones who hasn't done subframe connectors yet, that's first on the list.
I have no welding equipment or experience, so doing this myself would be...stupid.
However, I can't find anything about where to get this type of thing...
Anybody know a good place in Upstate SC are to get sub frame connectors welded in? I'd do it myself, but I don't have any welding experience and I'm moderately retarded.
I noticed recently that if I ever get into any boost in 5th or 6th gear, the clutch starts slipping. I'm assuming it needs to be replaced (~75,000 miles on the car), but I can't figure out why it would only be in the top gears. I can mat it in 1st - 4th with no issues. It seems like the...
Can't really find a better forum for this:
Ejected a CD last night, no problems.
Went to put it back in (ejected the wrong one) and got a "CD Error" message. Tried switching to a different disc, same problem, "CD Error". Tried ejecting them all, no luck. Tried unhooking the battery for...
Has anyone seen this? I'm just gonna ride around on it until I hit the 350 lb weight limit.
