Advice given to Navin R. Johnson: If you get "IT", See a Doctor and get rid of "IT"

I had nothing better to do and found a link buried in the source code at the blog. This explains what the two lists of numbers refer to Here. Hint: you need the Feb 08 Parachutist.

High WLs, Low Experience.. Where Are the S&TAs?
dunesurfer replied to MagicGuy's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Well, suppose I choose to exit the plane behind you, using the old "45 degree angle" approach to exit timing. You good with that? After all I do have equal right to risk my life in any way I see fit, as you stated. -
1.333 Wingloading with 160 jumps....
dunesurfer replied to markovwgti's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
With a "straight in" approach, you'll probably be ok, but what happens when: You have to abort your approach You land out You encounter turbulence over the landing area You find the wind shifted and now are landing down or cross wind You just plain commit an error in judgment Your wing loading may influence whether you walk away from these occurrences, end up crippled, or dead. -
It should be good to go then. The only real threat to the trans when submerged is rust. If you haven't done so already, check/change the gear oil in the trans, ditto for a differential if it is a rear wheel drive.

I can't pull up your video. Is this an auto or manual trans? On a manual trans the input shaft is partially supported by a bushing or bearing in the end of the crankshaft, so it may seem to wobble under the conditions described. For an auto, the "snout" of the torque convertor is mainly supported by the crankshaft, not the bushing and oil pump drive in the trans. Edit to add: what you see may be normal when the engine is disconnected from the tranny

Did they reference any sources for their information? It would be interesting to see the medical study details, if they exist.

I am a fan of the C.A.I, but I would add this precaution: Some kits route the air intake very low to the ground. I have seen this cause water aspiration if you drive through a deep enough puddle. End result would be a(or several)bent connecting rods. AEM offers a bypass valve that is supposed to prevent this. I have never seen CAI on a Mazda, my experience is only with Nissan\NISMO.

There are 2 belts in the 2.4l. One serpentine for evertthing but the ac comp, which has its own belt. My professional recommendation is have them both replaced.

it has been awhile, but I have had similar issues to yours, without having to do it all alone as you have to. Daycare #2 seems to be the lesser of two evils. Since you don't have a third option, maybe setting some firm expectations with this one on how you want discipline of your kids handled would help. Discussing this issue with the other moms there may also help. Sometimes people make better decisions if they know they are accountable for their actions.

You will not be disappointed. Good people and a great vibe.

Let's just hope it isn't one of these guys.

Engineers aren't the problem, it is the corporate process they are shackled by I can only say so much in a public forum. They might "disappear" me

You are lucky... move to Middle TN and try it I have heard complaints in other parts of the country of the same thing, but I only deal with Nissan vehicle accessory systems. Maybe it is our antennas and not the conditions.

Pick the one that has the programming lineup you prefer. My co-workers prefer the sports coverage XM offers. On the technical end, XM has ground signal repeaters, Sirius does not. I have had Sirius systems go "No Signal" on days with very dense cloud layer. I have never had this occur with XM.

HUH? Ok that takes way to much thinking for a Friday.... She is suggesting you "get some"

You can find some ideas for baiting scammers here: http://www.419eater.com/ Edited to add: I am not recommending you do anything outlined on that site. Link is just provided for entertainment value

I have no idea why most men don't like it. I love it, but I guess I don't fit the "typical guy" mold
-
I think your on to something here... I know mine definitly needs a warning label.... Well, they have this program that works well for bears

Funny, that new reality show "Kid Nation" made me think of this book. I wonder if the producers of this new show ever read it all the way through?
-
I can relate to how you feel on this, as my experiences unfortunately, are similar to yours. I am begining to believe those of us that trust and love unconditionally attract people bent on betrayal. My ex should be forced to wear a warning label

Send a box of rocks C.O.D, or horse shit if your sense of humor is inclined that way
-
Please explain why you believe intellectual and sexual arousal are mutually exclusive of each other. I have found they are not, and I don't think I am alone there. To answer your question, chess first, then sex
-
Yeah, way too long JT. Nah...that couldn't happen even with a lobotomy and a quart of jack Daniels :)

I definitely prefer intelligent women. It doesn't matter how attractive they may be, without the intellect they just don't hold my interest very long.
