    Bought a car today.

    You're going to drone that thing at a set RPM/speed on the 5? Terrible break-in. I hope you at least gun that a few times over and over and over and over and over and over. and over and over and over and over. Pretty sure your manual will say vary your speed/rpms. and over and over and over.

    Question about Cali speeding tickets (move if inappropriate)

    It should be based on your "conviction" date, which is the date that the judge deemed you culpable of your infraction. Therefore, your court date.

    Contact lens wearers...why is my right eye bothering me now, after 2 years of comfort

    Did you try not wearing contacts for a couple of days? Perhaps you have something in your eye that needs to get processed by your body? When I get that feeling and I know it isn't my contacts, I stop wearing them for a bit, then go back, good as new!

    Exercise recommendation specific for the Dirty Dancing Lift

    Oh the fatigue part is when I'm actually doing the lift with the girl. And it's also due to the fact that I do every other day workouts, alternate upper body between bench press and OHP. But when I'm practicing the lift, I'm on my off day, and my muscles aren't recovered from the previous...

    Exercise recommendation specific for the Dirty Dancing Lift

    Thanks for the close grip suggestion, I was adverse to doing that, because I thought it might weaken the overall shoulder bit of the OHP and lead to less than nominal increases. So I shouldn't be worried about changing to the close grip for the time being, as it'll eventually work the same bits?

    Exercise recommendation specific for the Dirty Dancing Lift

    Thanks for the push press recommendation! I'll try it out and see how my form tweaks and if I can maintain it with proper form. I'll also keep with the OHP, since it's a full body workout. Right now I can do the lift just fine in the partner work that I do with my dance company, just wanted...

    Exercise recommendation specific for the Dirty Dancing Lift

    I can understand how an overhead press can really help, but the balance points, due to the bar, focus outwards to the sides. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HtVNQS2kCI4 If anyone has a good recommendation on a variation of an exercise, I would appreciate it very much, but for now, I guess I...

    Manual Transmission Issues

    Check the clutch pedal adjustment, if you have the repair manual, it should say how to do it, but it should just be a screw type mechanism with locking washers to keep it in play. This happened to me in my car, the washer nuts got loose, the play got to almost nothing on the pedal, and it would...

    Been in the situation before. Prepare to lose. PayPal will side with the buyer. On average, a buyer will push more transactions than a seller, business is business.

    6th Annual Anandtech Tax Time Thread

    I'm already including a copy of my Federal return with my state return, I used TaxCut and it did not instruct me to include a copy of my 1099 (for stocks). However, TurboTax mentions to include a copy of it. What to do?! I tried the almighty power of Google, but that failed me as most of...

    Shun Elite or Shun Classic Lefty

    Chef's and paring is definitely on my top list of things to get. Unfortunately, I haven't seen a set for those two knives for the Shun Elite, which is a giant bummer. So I figure if I get a set with a storage block, then that takes care of those two pieces. The globals are nice a light, but...

    Shun Elite or Shun Classic Lefty

    Thinking of getting a knife-set for a left handed user. I tried out the Shun Classics at the store, and for me (right-handed) it was fine, but I can understand after extended use how the D handle could be troublesome. The Shun Ken Onions were a bit on the heavy side for me to consider...

    Anyone dragonboat?

    Just got into it and was looking at the amount of paddles available and was wondering if anyone has some experience with different materials and makers. I've only used a wooden one so far, and so I do not know how the lack of flex a carbon fiber one will affect me. I've seen a carbon...

    Over Two-Hundred-Seventy 9000!

    Completely agree Greenman, it's not fantastic performance, except the 1st engine was a lemon that crapped out sub 100k miles, second engine lasted about 170k miles which was pretty decent seeing that it was a used import engine. The 3E-E line of Tercel engines aren't fantastic in its durability...

    Possible 1999 Yamaha R6 purchase, price suggestions?

    Well, he only got a phone quote, so I know for sure it's a bit high. I posted the same question on some MC forums and so far I've gotten one reply saying that it's a decent deal seeing as a tranny is 200-500. Of course, once you get a mechanic to do that then labor goes through the roof. I...

    Hey guys, Just wanted to say thanks in advance for looking. So, I have an opportunity to purchase a 1999 R6. I'll be the third owner, and only have a limited history of the bike as I haven't inquired too much about it yet. It has about 30k miles on it, it's been dropped at least once...

    Can anyone identify what this mark is? Eczema?

    Ringworm. It looks like it's gotten huge, unless that picture is really close up, it also looks like it's on the calf right below the knee. Possible sources - any sort of domesticated animal, most commonly a cat. So if she has it, your pet has it most likely. Causes, weak immune system...
