  1. indeed, indeed we're on the same page, i'm just whining I thought the myth was that the plane *had* to stay in one spot I realize it's damned near impossible...but hypothesizing as though it were (as if it was held in place or something - or they increased drag on the wheels)
  2. You're probably right But i thought that was the whole idea of the myth: Keep the plane still and see if the motor alone could allow it to take off I agree that if the plane starts to go forward (which it almost always will), it's going to take off whatever
  3. but if you sped up the treadmill such that the plane didn't get enough force to lift? Speed going forward gives lift under the wings. Along with the thrust of the prop = enough to take off Get the treadmill keeping up with the plane and all you've got is that thrust from the motor I don't know how much of it taking off was attributed to that... Maybe it'd still take off with just the prop - maybe not eh..probably senseless to debate It's been debated for years
  4. Sentiments agreed with... I thought the 'myth' was that a treadmill that matches the speed of the plane...will not allow the plane to take off All of their 'tests' allowed the plan to far exceed the speed of the treadmill. I thought they would be trying to match the speed attained by the propeller (very difficult to do) The only 'myth' they busted was whether a plane can take off when a conveyor belt slows it down slightly
  5. pm sent to antony and yourself keep me out of it, i'll keep quiet I apologize for already saying more than I should and having got involved - wasn't my place. I'll delete anything/everything, but it's most certainly not me on craig's list
  6. Wtf? I already have pm threats over this? What? George and I were never friendly. Fact. I did not say that he was mean to everyone or a horrible person - we just never got along. My apologies if you took it the wrong way. Calm down, people. Just leave me out of this and I won't reply to defend myself or say another word - I've had one post deleted on the subject...and you're all looking for someone to pick on
  7. This is your back? This situation is bullshit. I'll keep quiet over here. But the members of CR are the only ones taking this particular position.
  8. definitely not me I wasn't there and don't know George very well - although I'll admit that he was never terribly nice nor friendly nor reasonable in my dealings with him I don't care that much, although I do feel that it's a crappy situation for all involved. And please don't call me a little bitch If you want to talk to me, do so directly

    Turn on ONN

    seemed pretty reasonable, actually said police were looking into the possibility of being drunk, or whether it was racing didn't say they were sure either way - but were investigating the possibility
  10. i meant that i wanted a game that wasn't only multiplayer (and yes, I know this limits severely) I don't want to have to deal with crappy servers online - rather just play the computer on a campaign http://www.mofunzone.com has some good stuff: all free
  11. I wouldn't mind a few free games...older quality - around 700 or so megabytes old war games? action? anything interesting...easy to play - low requirements... Can't find much online that doesn't end up wanting $20.00 after the first level And don't want a crappy online game - no multiplayer crap
  12. yes, it's 12,000 the Ohio statute says 10,000, but it's been adjusted for inflation (= $12,000)

    Rambo...

    I liked it, but a few more 'hands-on' killing scenes might have been nicer the bow was badass
  14. definitely depends on your style For some reason...I couldn't stand this movie. Granted...I didn't see the end.
  15. g'damn This movie is horrible - And I've had this discussion on 3 different forums. My roommates and I couldn't even make it through it. It's stupid as hell. How many people does he kill with a carrot? A fight scene while he's carrying a baby? Maybe I like an ounce of realism in my action movies: Rambo, for example
  16. I read this and think the same thing about rum or vodka, in general I had never even paid attention to see if there was 'top shelf' rum. Is it aged? Or just finer ingredients? Either seem silly And dear god. Gin? That's some nasty shit. Move to a better drink - Scotch or good bourbon Start with GlenLivet - a 12 y.o. scotch (38/bottle)
  17. As I understand it, common law is the foundation for all of our modern principles. Most statutes and ordinances say that common law applies, unless otherwise stated. So, the wording of the language or statute governs...but if the issue isn't spoken to, common law can be extremely important. All you need is precedent...
  18. they really are correct about the lawyer thing, unfortunately Once this order has been established, you can't simply open it back up for review in a few years when you realize you were screwed or could have done better You need new circumstances and more $$$/time/energy at that time to review what's going to happen now Hopefully the facts aren't that complicated. If you're calling her a bitch already - it's probably ugly and nasty...
  19. P.S. Ohio has a statute that provides for a civil remedy. Meaning...he can sue the state of Ohio under certain circumstances (not sure if Texas has a similar statute) If victorious, he could get monetary damages here. If i get bored, i'll look and see if anyone has done so, and how much they've gotten He would have to prove that he was convicted and that there was not proof beyond a reasonable doubt, though ...it's a defense for the state of Ohio - can't blame him if it really looked like he was guilty So, the guy in texas would probably still be fucked. An eye-witness saying it's him would give the state enough to say, "sorry...not our fault"
  20. that sounds fair to me we'll work something out - i'll take it i'm near OSU campus if you need the $ asap sometime, i'll pm you my # if you're ever around campus or you pm me near where you live and i'll see when i can get out there i'm not in any particular hurry - just collecting parts
  21. lower the price any? I'm interested http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/TurboSmart-dual-stage-turbo-Boost-controller-srt_W0QQitemZ230207602006QQihZ013QQcategoryZ33742QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem the only used one that has sold on ebay
  22. you weren't drinking liquor, then ....and i wish i hadn't ...fucking domino's $5.00 carryout special should read: "half cooked pizzas @ $5.00: guaranteed to give you the shits"
