Help - 2006 Odyssey - No heat unless moving
low or high rpms, coolant will still make it to the core if the system is not blocked/clogged.

Help - 2006 Odyssey - No heat unless moving
If the thermo was stuck open, it would take forever to heat up. When was the last time you serviced the cooling system, i.e flush and fill or even just checked the levels?

Help - 2006 Odyssey - No heat unless moving
Check your coolant levels, if it's good then you may have a clogged heater core or a clog in the coolant circuit. When the engine is revving, it provides more pressure so that may explain why heat is on only when moving. It could also be air in the system. There's a way to bleed it out but I'm not sure how on your odyssey.

Real or fake tree
Many years ago I sold trees. One year I went through 3500 trees, at just one stand. The last shipment, I don't know where they came from, the trees ranged from 10', the smallest, to probably 16'. I swear, they were treetops from a logging company. Anyway, we made a lot of 7'-8' trees out of them.

Real or fake tree
The only thing that smells as good as real pine is real pine. I've had both fake and real trees. Some of the artificial trees are very realistic now, not like the ones made of pipe cleaners when I was a kid. I prefer real but for various reasons we have been going with a fake table top tree lately. For that genuine pine scent, this is what I do. Go to the local fire/first aid tree stand and ask for cuttings If you know how to identify a Balsam fir, grab as much of that as you can, otherwise, just get whatever. Trimmed tree boughs are a pita, they are basically garbage and they will let you take as many as you like. They always offer them to me for free (garbage, remember) but I always throw them a $20. When you get home, cut up the boughs into 12" lengths and stuff them into some old pillow cases. Twist the top and tie it off. Place the pillow cases anywhere you like, behind the tree and under the couch is where I put them. All the real pine scent goodness with zero cleanup.

590 Shockwave, NJ legal?
I gotta admit. not a big fan of he shockwave's position for the slide release, but that's because I'm an 870 all the way kinda guy, The position is alien to me. But, I do like the trigger on the shockwave better than my mid 1980's 870. The 870 trigger is heavier but breaks clean, while the shockwave has a certain amount of take up then breaks nice at a lesser pull weight. Almost feels like a two stage..... almost.

107 vs. 108 vs. 110 vs. 115---Help Me Pick a Bullet
1:7 seems kinda fast for .243. I doubt you will get close to 3000fps with heavy for caliber bullets with that twist rate.

New AR .308 project
1 MOA??? what kind of BS is that! You can do better. Start from scratch, I'll tell ya what, I'll take that heap off your hands for half what you put into it. You deserve a sub MOA rifle.

Black Friday Deals
.243 Win was a really popular round for long range competition. 6mm CM is just a slight teensy weensy improvement over .243. Competition shooters jizz over CM and rifle makers need to make more money so they ditched .243 for comp rifles and started making 6mm CM. So, now it's a thing.

Net Neutrality on the Chopping Block Again
Simply put, deregulating the internet, departing from it's original open source unrestricted structure, would be like deregulating football, baseball, or any other sport you happen to still like. Anything goes. Regulation, to some degree, is necessary. what the FCC is proposing takes away consumer protections and empowers corporations to rape you. The internet, on the consumer market level, was intended to be an open source, unrestricted, means to access information. Without net neutrality, you will only see what your ISP wants you to see. Imagine what it would be like if you wanted to travel somewhere, and the person at the toll booth told you, as a matter of corporate policy, they don't want you to go to your destination because it would not be an optimally profitable destination for them and you will have to pay extra to go to your destination or they outright say no, you cannot use this road to get to where you want to because it's a conflict of interest, and block your ability to access information.

Yanno, maybe my acquaintance at pro-tec is not the person you want. Some of the training is ... Well... Violent. Many of the women in the shelters are traumatized and having a guy do the training could freak them out. He probably knows female trainers though.

Thanksgiving Cocktail Hour.
Here's a couple delicious recipes for Thanksgiving day. These are favorites that I've been serving for a few years. Pumpkin Pie Martini. 2 parts pumpkin spice vodka (there are several brands, any will do) 1 part Baily's Irish Cream. Splash of light cream or half and half Whipped cream Ground nutmeg Ice Shake vodka, Baily's and light cream mixture in ice filled shaker, pour into chilled martini glass, top with whipped cream, sprinkle with nutmeg, drink, repeat until unable to repeat. After Dinner Espresso. 2 jiggers Van Gough Espresso or Double Espresso Vodka Starbucks Mocha Frappuccino Whipped cream Chocolate covered Pocky sticks. Ground cinnamon Pour 2 jiggers vodka into a coffee cup (use the nice ones with a saucer if possible), pour Frappuccino leaving enough room for whipped cream, top with whipped cream, sprinkle lightly with ground cinnamon, garnish (optional) with Pocky stick or any similar confection such as chocolate coated pretzel sticks. This goes extremely well with dessert.

Cabelas Joins The Sales Tax Train.
Why buy ammo from Cabelas when there are so many better alternatives? Don't get me wrong, I like Cabelas and order certain things from them, but not ammo.

I don't know of any 2A groups that do this but there is a guy I know who specializes in training women in self defense, martial arts and firearms training. His company is called Pro-Tec Training out of Old Bridge.

Actually, there are examples of isps throttling traffic from certain sites and other networks. I'm at work right now and I can't really look it up, but I will be happy to when I get home later.

Club/Range
If you can get over the very steep initiation fee, cjrpc is probably the best value going IF you do a lot of shooting and different types of shooting and plan on doing it for the long haul... Rifle, pistol, trap, archery, bonus if you are a deer hunter. They have a tremendous amount of acreage that you are allowed to hunt on.

590 Shockwave, NJ legal?
One of the very narrow and specific set of things that makes the shockwave and Tac-14 legal is the birdshead style grip. A letter went out to LE stating that both firearms, in their original configurations, are legal. Any modification that removes a component and replaces it with anything other than an exact duplicate is inviting trouble. How much trouble is anyone's guess. But I bet finding out would be expensive.

Net Neutrality on the Chopping Block Again
While our minds are occupied with Thanksgiving preparations and tying up loose ends at work, and the hustle and bustle of black friday shopping, this is what's happening right under our noses. Basically, one of the very few things that BO actually did right was to protect net neutrality. The former Comcast exec Ajit Pai is set to take regulatory power away from the federal and state government and make it so that ISPs can charge you a premium for normal internet speeds and if you don't pay you will be kicked down to a slower lower priority network. They are making deals with content providers like Netflix, Amazon and Hulu. From the actual inventor if the Internet The internet was created as an open source society and now the ISPs want to hijack it, set up toll roads and control your access to the WWW. If your ISP does not like a website, they can slow down your connection to a crawl, and there won't be a damn thing you can do about it.

T day plans, recipes etc
Family traditions are often manifest through recipes . Historically, holidays are the few times of the year time the whole family, near and far, gathers and celebrates. The words festival and feast are very closely related. It is only through the gathering and the festival that we can maintain the continuity of tradition. It's kinda funny, I'm the only boy out of seven children and I'm the only one who knows most of my family recipes, both Sicilian and Irish. I find it somewhat tragic when family traditions die out with passing generations. I applaud you for carrying on the family tradition. I believe It's important we all have a tangible link to our past.
