    2 bombs explode in boston

    I'm not talking a 50 yard field goal type kick. Maybe a kick the door back open at your house without punching a hole in the sheetrock while bringing in two armloads of stuff type kick. More like a nudge. There's no point living in fear or terror, nor constantly casing each situation like...

    2 bombs explode in boston

    I try to keep my situational awareness high as best I can in strange crowded places. I saw on CNN or Fox or one of the news networks where they showed a still image from some video and you can plainly see a large bag on the outside of the barricade. The next still image was an explosion from...

    2 bombs explode in boston

    There were too many people at that time. All the leaders had finished already. Which are mostly sponsored out of towners with 1-2 spectators and media. The ones crossing at this point were amateurs. The runners with 3-4, or more, family/friends watching them actually finish the Boston Marathon...

    My 7 year old thinks the North Koreans did it. I think it's some sicko wanting to make the news.

    FCC Issues Two Forfeiture Notices for Cell Phone Jamming

    Was it Boston or New York that had the Jammer Bandit? Media made him out like a hero jamming people in public that deserved to be jammed. Obummer can lock down acres at a time to ride around in his diesel limo tank. That's OK. These guys were trying to get a handle on their workers/businesses...

    converting new dx959 from mosfet to transistor

    I worked with a Serbian mechanic once. He has a Honda Del Sol that he made into a convertible and installed a bored out blueprinted SC Alpha Romero inline 6. 'Why?' I asked. 'Why not?' Was my reply.

    Uniden Wireless Microphone

    Hmmm. A PTT tethered app via the Internet with full radio controls could be within reason for a modern SMT radio. It's push buttons and 'fly by wire' knobs anyway.

    Why USA not do this ?

    Can't mess with South Korea. Besides the fact I'm here right now, we are waiting to profit from them. Their shipyards are turning out lots drillships, 70-80% of the next 15-20 are bound for US waters in the next few years. That is a lot of quick generated income for the 3rd coast and long term...

    Obama to announce plans to fund alternative fuel research

    Rumor has they'll be a small diesel domestic truck produced in a year or two. Maybe this will start a trend.

    Obama to announce plans to fund alternative fuel research

    Small diesels should be looked into harder also. Most any small imported diesel gets better mileage than those of the hybrids. There are other means than hybrids to reduce the 'carbon footprint' from burnt fossil fuels.
