This has possibilities. Shitty: I've got girl with a flat tire on 23, needs mech van. Cheech: Cool. Is she hot? S: Not really. C: Tell her to walk. Base out.

With any luck I'll be motorcycle-less by that time. If I can help out in other ways Shitty, let me know, I'm down.

AT&T Motorola Atrix here. Buy a Samsung. Seriously.

Looks like someone's wayyyy overpaying for their college education.

If it was $25, I could see them flying off the shelves. $250? Not so much.

Honestly Parks, getting a barebones deal on Newegg, mwave, tigerdirect, stuff like that would be about the same price as buying a pre-built. Not only do you have quality components vs. whatever shit the OEM's would buy in bulk, but you have the ability to expand and add on as different things come up. Think of it as a AR build, you know that building your own is superior to just buying a stock build and hoping that they didn't use shit internals or not being able to put things where you want them. Whether Cdubyah knows some guys locally that can put these together for you, or you come to me you're going to get a lot more bang for your buck this way.

Find a barebones deal on newegg and give me the parts. I'll put it together for you, all free like.

That's gotta be a pretty high PSI to force the plastic preform into all the mold cavities. I was blown away by how many tons of pressure it took to keep the reaction injection plastic inside the mold and to fill all the cavities. Every time I walked into a factory of my old gig it felt like I was in How It's Made. Glad you've found something stimulating.

Any RIM materials? I'm not familiar with the blow molding process, just a little with RIM. Making mushrooms out of the iso and poly was fun

So you're in favor of something resembling Sharia Law?

I've got a 4 year old Caberg that has been sitting in my cabinet for the last 2-3 years. Flip-down integrated visor and buckle chinstrap, size M. I usually wear a Scorpion 1000, and I can tell you the fit is just a little smaller than that. Other than that, the outside is perfect, no drops or anything like that. I'd let it go for $50, lemme know next time you're in the area.

I am, but just to death's door. The gun is so you can put yourself out of your misery.

Dashcams and recorders are only as faithful as the people operating them. The solution for this is simple. Always-on full sound and video recording (fish eye lens) wirelessly transmitting to a locked, encrypted storage device that can be accessed only by a police oversight watchdog (that is completely police independent) and only AFTER the police have filed their arrest reports. And mandatory perjury prosecutions where the deviation between video and report show it is warranted. If video, or sound is missing it should automatically be prima facie evidence of tampering and immediately result in all charges being dropped and immediate restitution and if the problem persists or results in injury, result in immediate charges against the police officer. The unions, however, would never in a million years agree to something like this because it undermines the "us vs. them" mentality they've created over the last 30 some-odd years, and it puts some control back in the hands of civilians. I understand the whole "split-second decision" argument, however I also understand from media and trial lawyers alike that a fuckload of perjury seems to happen from the police without any repercussions at all.

I can't find anything but metal ammo for my Mosin (haven't looked very hard though). That's the reason the range gave me for denying it, almost verbatim.
-
That's a hell of a point. Do you even need the gun? Good pickup man, I'm sure you and the Midget will have lots o' fun with that.

The officer(s) on 270 were Highsmith of the OSHP and Thomas from Gahanna PD. They were doing well over 140 on a ZX14 in active 270 traffic when they got popped and released. The guy who pulled them over even went so far to turn his lapel mic off and said something to them that was never (to my knowledge) entered into evidence, after that they packed up and took off. Highsmith got 5 days suspension, 6 months license suspension, 2 years probation and reassignment to Marysville (if memory serves), and Thomas got shitcanned, sued for wrongful termination, won, and now has his job back. Oh yeah, Thomas was also on injury leave at the time of the stop. All the details are here: http://www2.nbc4i.com/news/2010/mar/10/police_officer_will_get_his_job_back_after_motorcy-ar-9172/ This shit right here is why I don't trust the police.
-
But no, there's no endemic problem with the OSHP. None at all. First the motorcycle asshole Highsmith and now this woman, and drunk to boot. ANYONE else would have at least spent the night in the tank.

I think that's that's the first thing I've ever heard you say that wasn't full of either fallacies or cognitive dissonance. I agree.

If it can be tied (however loosely) back to drug "enforcement", that means that a whole host of grants are now on the table to apply for and pick from. Suddenly that 2M of free money gets upped to 2.5M or possibly even higher. And seriously, all 2M goes to SWAT? According to the 2010 annual report, that went towards the following: • Garmin Nuvi 465T/1690 GPS units for Patrol supervisors • Window tint meters • Portable breath testers • Cannondale Police Enforcement Bikes • Alerte Trailblazer III police bike light and siren system • Baker Bat Shield (ballistic shield) • Saddles and harnesses • Personnel database • Adult/child and infant CPR mannequins • Microfilm reader • Flight helmets • Underwater communication system • Child identification fingerprint kits Unless SWAT traded in their APC's for up-armored Cannondale's, I think this is going to other divisions.
-
Really? That almost 2 million the CPD seized last year could have bought a lot of units. Google has the civilian handheld OMG models at about 8K, I'm guesstimating that the LEO models are at least 15. But hey, I suppose window tint meters, new ballistic shields, and an underwater comm system are stuff that you have to have when you're spending other people's seized cash.
-
There are quite a few models of hand-held FLIR units. I agree that using it from a chopper position would not yield enough resolution to see the guy, but I have to imagine using it from much closer and away from the main heat sources (as you can) would yield something better. If they can afford APC's, I'm sure they can pony up the cash for a few units. Scruit, as far as the tint goes, limo-ish tint is pretty standard down there. At least in south AZ, it's all over the place due to the heat.

It's been a while since I've had a psychology course so I had to dig deep for that one. I suppose you have a point if you're dealing with a child's developing mind, as Piaget focused on.

I could kiss you right now.

I know, right? History and reality have SUCH a liberal bias. Oh well, haters gonna hate.
