    EPA Issues Emergency Fuel Waiver for E15 Sales

    Looks like we're getting 15% ethanol this summer. They claim it will save .25 (perhaps .50 a gallon in other articles), and only cost 4-5% of your mileage vs unethanolated gas. This is a knee jerk reaction...(Even with it being on the board since 2018.) Wonder what food prices will do, besides...

    How you know your town is fairly safe.

    This is the top story on the local news. A guy has a 2-step on a Mustang, and the WPD want him after getting it on film and apparently 911 has been getting a few calls for gunshots lol.

    Arecibo (radio telescope) is lost

    After having 2 cables fail they do not think they can safely repair the facility, and it is likely going to have a spectacular cascading failure if they do not try a controlled demolition. We have lost one of our best tools for studying space and it is truly a sad day. Arecibo radio telescope...

    Good body shops in Denver

    My sister caught her fender backing out of the garage as the kids were fighting in her '17 VW atlas. Caught the passenger front fender. It's pushed in but most of the scuffs are rubber from the garage door. They were just going to take it to the dealer but down here the indy shops are much...

    Gordie Howe Dies at 88

    Goodbye "Mr. Hockey" #9 :( I've had quite a few Howe hat tricks over the years... he was one hell of a player, but a major force multiplier on the ice, like Yzerman decades later. But Howe would still score often and have as many assists, and he spent much more time in the box than Stevey Y...

    I lost my mom, she was just 58 and my only parent.

    I've been dealing with this for about two weeks now, lost her early Tuesday morning on the 23rd. It was not expected at all. She had been having trouble keeping food down since November and the Dr's took their sweet time sending her to a specialist. They ran a scope though her GI tract in early...

    My work caught fire.

    It hit the shop which thankfully is not connected to the office. It sounds like the fire originated under the hood of a tractor and spread to the ceiling. First responders called a second alarm and hazmat thanks to all of our... acetylene and propane tanks just being stored there. No injuries...

    Boeing 747 "Dreamlifter" landed at the wrong Wichita airport last night...

    Ever get stuck in the snow... I imagine this is worse. Imagine landing a loaded, heavily customized Boeing 747, designed to carry large sections of 787's, at an airport 8-12 miles from where you were supposed to land, oh and the runway is ~6,100ft long which is shorter than the 9,199 feet...

    PHP: What program do you use?

    I've found that Dreamweaver and Expression/FrontPage don't allow much visual control when it comes to php. I'm not a big programmer or web designer so I have been looking for a GUI based program that makes using php easier to code and have had little luck. So what do you use/recommend?
