  1. It was already passed and then banned as unconstitutional in Michigan. State Supreme Court saw it as violating their rights against illegal search and seizure.
  2. I think it needs to be handled on a case by case basis of kid by kid as it may be. I can tell you right now that taking things away or sending me to my room did nothing to deter me. In fact, I enjoyed the time alone and away from the world as much as I still enjoy it. I cannot tell you a single reason why I was sent to my room and I probably repeated those same mistakes time and time again. I can tell you why I got swatted and I usually didn't repeat those. I can also tell you things friends did just prior to them getting swatted in front of me. Now if you look at my girlfriend, all her dad had to do was express his disappointment in her and her actions and she was so upset that it never crossed her mind to do it again. Two very different people require two very different forms of punishment/correction. You have to know your child and you have to know what works for them.
  3. Should have run faster....:bangbang:
  4. How do you control your kid these days? You can't spank them and you can't confine them. She took things away (grounded him) and he still found ways to get "toys".
  5. Also talks about restraint chairs being used. Much less mobility in a restraint chair then cuffed to a chair/desk. http://www.nospank.net/ai-rpt3.htm
  6. If he was sent to juvi and snuck in contraband would he be in solitary? Wouldn't that be just about the same as what he had here?
  7. I like those. The color combo looks good too.
  8. I have to agree. He was provided food water and a bathroom. He was also provided a way to alert someone if he needed help. He got outside for "exercise" (shoveling).

    Child Abuse?

    http://www.wsbt.com/news/wsbt-berrien-springs-16yearold-found-handcuffed-in-parental-discipline---20110210,0,5855695.story At what point do you think she crossed the line from punishment to abuse?
  10. Repost...of a repost....of a repost.....
  11. It is fast enough that it is used to control autonomous vehicles and for all kinds of automotive testing. It is probably more accurate then your cars speedo on top of that. (Just for reference, most manufacturers consider +/- 5mph accurate)
  12. That is a list of Alternative Fuel Vehicles. Under the column Fuel Type it doesn't list anything in front of the Cavalier. It seems to list E85FFV in front of compatible cars. I would guess it is a alternative fuel car because from 1999-2004 you could get a bi-fuel model that used CNG or gasoline. From the same site: http://e85.whipnet.net/flex.cars/index.html Cavalier is not listed.
  13. http://ethanolretailer.com/flexible-fuel-vehicles/ I think it is a CNG or gasoline car? I do not see E85 being an option for a Cavalier anywhere?
  14. If you drive like you have a brain it is a non-issue. I have yet to have an accident (besides getting hit from behind at a stop light in broad daylight in the middle of summer) in the 8 years I have lived in Ohio. I have also lived in Chicago and Ann Arbor. I have yet to own any type of 4wd or AWD. In 13 years of driving the only times I have had accidents they have all been when I was screwing around. Only one of those has been in the winter and guess what? I was driving on snow tires in a Chevette. Pulled the e-brake "drifting" around a corner and clipped a mailbox. The only time I have even had snow tires is on my Chevette and I ran them year round because that is what was on it when I got it. The biggest issue here is people forget how to drive every time the white stuff starts flying. I couldn't believe it when I came here and found out about Snow Warnings and them having Level 3 banning you from driving.
  15. Actually I am the ricer blowing by you in the fast lane. I regularly pass the same 4wd's that park right next to me in the parking lot.
  16. Read the quote again it says "all grades of BP gasoline with Invigorate". That is exactly how you can make things say anything you want. It doesn't say all grades have Invigorate. It says that all grades that DO have Invigorate meet(exceed) those standards. Top Tier is not a Pay to Play thing. It is completely voluntary. If your gas passes we put your name on the list. It doesn't even say that your car requires Top Tier gas just that they recommend it.
  17. If they exceed the standards then they should be on the list. My guess is not all levels of BP gas include Invigorate. So maybe the ones with Invigorate do exceed Top Tier standards but not the others. In comparison everyone else on the list meets or exceeds the standards with ALL levels of gas they make.
  18. Why does everybody freak about the weather here? We don't get shit for bad weather. I am rocking Direzza Star Spec "extreme performance summer" tires and I have yet to get stuck. Last year I was running on bald Falken Ziex ZE-912 still didn't get stuck. Both years I was in a FWD SC Honda making about 300 hp with a manual. If you use your brain you do not need AWD. That being said, I WANT AWD. (Won't need it here but I still want it.)
  19. http://www.toptiergas.com/retailers.html If it is not on this list, DO NOT WANT!
  20. http://www.crowenterprizes.com/Pages/Install.html These are the directions that came with mine. As long as it is slightly behind your Chest Line, you should be SAFE and legal.
  21. What about a chemical that could be applied to tires AFTER manufacture to make them smoke different colors. Companies have done colored rubber that burns color and black tires that burn color for drifting etc. However, all of these are made into the tire. Something that could be put on afterward would have ricers going nuts.
