so what would you do if you suffered from EMS, and someone moved in next-door with an arsenal of electronic equipment?

move?

faraday cage?

go all Dr. Evil and invent some grand scheme to disable all electrical power on your block?

legally, i don't think he has a leg to stand on, but a jury might be sympathetic; especially a jury comprised of older individuals who, 1) probably won't understand why a computer or iPhone needs to be on 24/7, and 2) may have health problems themselves, or neighbors who annoy them in some similar capacity.

I think it's an unfortunate situation for the plaintiff, but I don't foresee any 'fair' solution for him.

what if the Plaintiff had severe asthma, and the Defendant smoked in her back yard, right near the AC intake for the plaintiff's home?

in that case, her actions are unnecessarily aggravating his medical condition, just like her phone. (not a perfect analogy, but the best I can come up with on the fly) Couldn't the court reasonable rule that smoking in that particular place is unnecessary, and preclude the defendant from smoking in close proximity to the Plaintiff's home?

is a cell-phone an "essential service" when land-lines are a completely viable option? I don't think you can possibly argue that dimmer-switches or florescent bulbs are essential either.

I'll concede that the plaintiff is asking a lot of his neighbor, but I wouldn't be shocked if a jury found the requests reasonable, given the circumstances of his legitimate medical condition. An expert witness could definitely sway a jury.

^ it's the bike that says "POLICE" on the side. background of scott's bio. http://www.safetyfirstracing.com/

The race team was started by cops, but they couldn't put "police" on a street-legal vehicle (their trailer), because that would be impersonating an officer. The race bikes; however, never turn a wheel on the street, so "POLICE" is acceptable.

not sure where they shot their bio's, but Scott's has one of the "Safety First" racing bikes behind him in his...

with enough searching on the WERA board, I bet I could track down the current owner of that bike.

^ strictly speaking, they make money by selling merchandise. Their PRODUCTION habits are what are(were?) illegal.

I'm not sure if they still make videos. shows how much i follow the stunt scene...

i have mixed feelings on the starboyz.

on the one hand, they helped popularize sportbikes. Some of my first memories of non-cruisers involve a fur-covered bike and a rider with a big star on his back.

on the other hand, i feel like they also helped start the stereotype that all sportbike riders rip wheelies down the highway at 90 mph, and are constantly riding irresponsibly.

But I can't help but admire their business aspirations. "hey, let's try to make some money by riding sportbikes and putting it on video. sweet."

^ did you just call an F4i a cruiser?

they relaxed the ergonomics in 2003, but a stock F4i is still an incredibly capable bike (with the right rider).

the starboyz still exist?

oh, and welcome.

Guy looked like was barely in control much of the time. Several times I thought he was gonna flop over

and yet he didn't.

I can't decide if the guy is that much MORE skilled than I give him credit for, or that much dumber.

The guy has some balls - not that that's always such a good thing...

i would prefer the 30th, but only because i'm already riding the 10th & 11th...

how much do the ducati people really mind? Plus if we outnumber them, how much do we care if they mind?

so have we established enough interest to vote on one weekend and one track? I see a poll in our future.

Putnam or Grattan would be awesome. I've been meaning to get to both for the last two years.

whoever said, "putnam should only be a couple hours away for everyone" on page 2 is sadly mistaken though... I'm looking at 6 hours or more.

Al Gore needs to shovel my driveway before I watch another one of his bs PowerPoint presentations...

^ I was wondering why anyone (besides a pretty accomplished racer) would need/want two identical bikes as well, but to each his own.

Plus the man said i could borrow one. quit giving him shit.

Putnam 5/1 & 5/2. be there.

I hope we get some seasoned track riders chiming in on this thread...for as much emphasis as people put on body positioning, it sure is hard to get some good, informed advice on the subject.

i wouldn't call myself "seasoned," but I don't embarrass myself on the track. My take:

if you're going fast and not low-siding, your form is good enough. Larry Pegram's form sucks balls to look at (knee injury of some sort forced him to change riding styles), but the guy is fast as hell.

do what works for you.

Re: the initial picture, I KNOW i 'reach' for the ground early in the day, and as my speed comes up, I hang off less and lean over more. There's nothing wrong with hanging your knee way out, scuffing the puck, and then pulling your knee back up a few inches before you set it down to actually slide through a turn.

R6's look funny to me with mirrors... I just never see them on the street i guess. Welcome. Can I please borrow one?

couldn't find anything on LEO's phone number.

a $50 fee is outrageous though... i wanted to buy from bud's because the shotgun i want is $180 on their site,a dn $229 at Gander Mountain.

$50 fee kind of negates the difference.

where are these places?

I've never heard of either, but I'm sure Boston Mills & Brandywine aren't overly popular with the Columbus crowd either.

clearly i need to ditch my ranger, and import one of these. As long as that tonneau cover is removable, I could fit the RR in the bed.

you work at osu or a student?

I'll be walking to campus soon. I was gonna drive, but I dont know if my little zx2 will make it.

my brother's zx2 does ok in the snow. fwd is fwd... there's not much ground clearance, but that's rarely an issue anywhere by my parents' driveway.

they have a list when you attempt to check out. Let me know what you find out. I was thinking the place Independence would be close to work for me, and right down the road for you.

L E OS SHOOTING SUPPLY

6411 SUNSET AVE

INDEPENDENCE, Ohio 44131

I didn't see stonewall on their list, but I wasn't looking for them...

anyone who doesn't like "God" on their money; I'll happily take it off your hands.

personally, i don't give a shit what my money says...

BUT, I have to believe that there are millions of American Christians who would be outraged if our money said "in Allah we trust." I'm not sure how those people can so passionately argue that "in God we trust" is 'fair.'

I vote that all currency feature a festivus pole.

our forecast says 3-5" today, and 6-10" tomorrow.

I'm going home early, and working form home tomorrow, but that has nothing to do with the snow :-p

They should have had a few Deputies at the front doors manning the entrance. Wonder where the breakdown in security was? Too bad' date=' but I can't get into my courthouse without walking through a metal detector and emptying my pockets.[/quote']

all reports are that the guy didn't get past the metal detectors; he just walked in, pulled a shotgun out of his jacket, and started firing while IN LINE for the security checkpoint.

what do you want them to do? move security outside? So then the crowd of people outside gets shot up instead.

You can't prevent idiocy. Am I missing written sarcasm somewhere?

where does it sit on their performance chart?

it used to be Pilot Power, Pilot Power 2CT, Power Race. Then the Power One replaced the Power Race. Is this replacing the 2CT?
