It's powered by steam and therefore has a furnace/firebox, all you need is some halon.

Armed automomous robot that fuels itself by stuffing biologic matter into its furnace, what could go wrong? Oh, and they may be able to Construct copies of themselves I'm not sure which distopic movie future world to site yet.... can't wait to see 9.

...and Jesus spake unto the apostles: "Open forth your doors, and prostrate thyselves on the floor. Brothers and sisters, the lord bids us: Walk the Dinosaur."

Imagine, if you will, a load of horseshit. And we’re not talking just your average load of horseshit; no, we’re talking colossal load of horsehit. An epic load of horseshit. The kind of load of horseshit that has accreted over decades and has developed its own sort of ecosystem, from the flyblown chunks at the perimeter, down into the heated and decomposing center, generating explosive levels of methane as bacteria feast merrily on vintage, liquified crap. This is a Herculean load of horseshit, friends, the likes of which has not been seen since the days of Augeas. And you look at it and you say, “Wow, what a load of horseshit.” But then there’s this guy. And this guy loves this load of horseshit..... Read on. lol

http://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/local/Pool-Boots-Kids-Who-Might-Change-the-Complexion.html I deserve money from them because, as a white person, my image in the black community is tarnished by caracka ass mutherfuckers pulling Jim Crow shit like this. That shit is so rediculous that I'm still wondering if the article is a joke....?

Oh neat! Any pictures? I'd love to see the brightness. With some of that stuff, we can actualy make our stuff emitt light rather than require it. Edit: Awesome site, everyone should visit.

It's a trade show in a conference center. Anyones guess on ambient light, probably not much from the ceiling, as they love to charge for that stuff. Imagine a 20ft countertop with a 15" tower in the middle. The countertop needs to be lit from the top of the tower. Halogens will do the job, I'm just hoping to find something a bit less thirsty for the job.

"Hunting" is a lot of things, and that aint any of them.

Indoor/outdoor, doesn't matter. I've got to illuminate some things from a 10ft high tower. Lowest power draw possible Small (preferably less than 3" dia) Cheap Good lighting at 15ft. It's for a trade-show booth, and those places charge out the ass for outlets and power, and moreso if you have to rent their lighting. Will be replacing some halogens. SMD LED are supposed to suck less juice, but are they equal in poer?

How to make a sex symbol un-sexy: Just apply cold water.

Drop it into a can WITH A TRASH BAG and tie it up. Also be aware that the hive may split from the impact of the fall, you want to be tying that shit up fast. You need your ninja skills, this are serious business. Failure is not an option.... er, unfilmed failure is not an option.

Shape charges. . . . . Shape charges.

Not wasps, they're hornets. Since they're white, I googled "white hornets".... and found out they're wasps. lol http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bald-faced_hornet Step one: Place trach can under nest Step Two: Fill the hole with great stuff Step three: Cut nest stem and make it wall into trash can. Step 4: Close trash bag.

I've done fuel pumps before, just not on a cavy. I see ads for the pump and the pump assy, the assy being hyper expensive. The shop quoted $200 labor and $500 for the part. I'm not finding them anywhere for that much scratch. Car will be traded off in under 3 months.

Wait a fucking minute, what the hell is this? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1996-96-CHEVROLET-CAVALIER-Fuel-Pump-CARTER-P74712S_W0QQitemZ190316625648QQcmdZViewItemQQimsxZ20090624?IMSfp=TL090624178003r14430 Where's the pump, and cant you just replace it?

Anoyne done this? It's the most common US car ever, I figure some oen here has got to have done it. My brothers car need a pump, and the shop wants $700 for the job. Ebay's most expenstive OEM pump is $250 ($50 for new aftermarket), this job can't be too tough... can it?

They don't have nice things, they have bright shiney flashy things. There is absolutely no reason what so ever to buy an Hummer H2 or H#. NONE! The market is full of other SUV's that do everything better. The H2 sell point is "HEY EVERYBODY LOOK AT ME", thats it. The lifted F-650? That is the most rediculous "tow vehicle" ever devised. It has a tow rating that is impressive, but a ride height that percludes it from hooking up with damn near anything. It's a frame ment for Rollbacks and Box trucks, it's qualities are ENTIRELY USELESS to the common man, especially when fitted with a god damn truck bed. I can imagine a tow-behind motor home that would make full use of that truck, it could tow a bus. The F-650 pickup sell point is, again; "HEY EVERYBODY LOOK AT MEEEE!". The Challenger is a decent enough car, but he paid a huge premium to be the first on his block to own one: "Hey everbody, look at MEEEE!" "Some people pay cash for that stuff", yep, and they like to show it off. They own a fleet of image cars, they are image consious (though obviously not image consious enough to put down the big-mac), and so is their brat kid. I can understand his dissapointment (but not his reaction), they spent less on his birthday present than they do on a weeks worth of gas for their toys. Way to put your kids first. Roll on paint for beaters, ftw.

Just looking at that driveway, I hate that family. Tehy all want big bright flashy cars and probably have no real use for any of them, that's says a lot about their priorities, so I'm not at all surprised that the kid is insanely image conscious. This is why you spank your kids, parents. Pay attention, you're seeing a 3 year old's temper tantrum, channeled through a 16 year old. He can't control himself because his parents never made him. If my boy ever waved a bat at me (he never will), he would become injured. I pay the insurance deductable anyways. "You want everyone to think I'm poor!?" No, because your net income is ZERO, you ARE poor and shouldn't have a car at all. I just want you to look financially limited... now get a job.

I'll go ahead and doubt that, but that entirely up to the person judging. Being faste as in quicker off the line? That is nothing to brag about, my engine is shit. (My next one will be an XT) Being faster driving from here to, ummm, Colorado? Not a chance. I can sustain higher speeds for the whole trip and gain more time over you with fewer fuel stops. The outback is a balanced vehicle, it's not great at any particular thing, but its good enough at all of them that it is an outstanding mode of transportation. It gets me and my shit every place I want to go without killing me or my budget.

Actually, it is the videos, we thought th esame thing: We You-Tubed videos from the trail before hand and decided "yeah, that looks mild enough, we can do that and I won't worry about the 1300mi trip home." Within our first 100yds of trail we had get out and walk routes before drivign them. The "Descent" section was damn near a 40deg slope with a couple knee-deep dips/moguls in it. The worst of that didn't get filmed because we were spotting, you can see the 4Runner go through and kick his wheels up, though. We got down it just a slowly as the lifted jeep that we let pass through. Here's what TrailDamage says about the hill, in the up direction.

If you want to laugh about something, laugh about my blown shocks. You still need to give props, Mike. It's a trail rated "moderate" (2 on a scale of 3) by the local offroad athority, and the cars got through all 6 miles of it. I bought the Outback for a reason; I aint driving a proper 4x4 cross-country. I'm a cheap sumbich, I like my mpg. I did rip up an OEM mudflap, and I've scraped the rockers and such a number of times. The only failing in the car is the front lip. The approach angle sucks, there were things I'd have to drive around just because I couldn't get started on them. I may crank out a metal front bumper this winter.

http://offroadsubarus.com/showthread.php?t=823&highlight=pole+hill Thread has videos imbedded in it, my Outback (green) and another on Pole Hill in Estes Park, Co. We were certainly the only cars we saw out there, but we were also the only vehicles with unmodified ground clearence. Mine is about 7.5" and I was able to avoid scraping *most* of the time by being carefull with my wheels. The hill in the vids labeled "Decsent" is steeper than it looks, as indicated by the occasional sliding of the cars.
