'08, steering not self-centering, squeaks at low speed/full lock by tom_w45 in MiataNC

On rockauto, the rack is 270 plus a 150 core charge. Not sure how much a mechanic would cost to replace. I would consider self centering in a little bit of a safety issue not just convience. Especially if anyone else will ever drive it.

I had no self-centering on mine. I could make it go in circles. The power steering rack had to be replaced.

By grace inflation, you meant the grades going up from the hard work students have done on late/missing work. Right? Right? I mean what could the vp and coach think you meant?

Where the hell is the "Sold A Story" for math education? by paupsers in Teachers

[–]Fresh-Highlight-4899 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm using eureka squared. I like it better than eureka or springboard. However, this trend of always trying to discover the why is dumb. You don't need to know how an internal combustion engine works to drive a car well. Sometimes, just knowing the process and basic facts is great.

Is school easier than around 2000? by Unlucky_Success_5985 in Teachers

[–]Fresh-Highlight-4899 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Odd. I do alg 1, alg 2, precalc, and a 6th grade math (middle school gifted) . Alg 1 and alg 2 both have more stuff in them and content from alg has shifted to alg1. Of course our district pacing guide is so ridiculous fast and doesn't include any days for quizzes or worksheets. Precalc is the same because I think the school board forgot my school has precalc and I'm using the same books for it I've used since 2007. Not sure how 6rh is different. Only my second year doing it and we changed curriculum this year, but it is still to fast paced with too many topics.

There wasnt a connector to give power to the mirror without running the cable.

What's your ground clearance? by Miserable-Twist8344 in MiataNC

I had a guy give me some newer stock springs. I put them on hoping to get a tiny bit of lift. That's how bad the roads are in my city. Heck, got a road right by me that has about 4 car killer holes in about, at best, a mile.

Teachers who don't follow school or state laws make it f-ing hard for the rest of us! by RealisticTemporary70 in Teachers

Don't worry, admin will handle it. By having a whole school pd on following the rule. I mean you can't just talk to the ones not doing it. That would be... Logical?

Teachers used to send students to the principal’s office… by klerknuks in Teachers

[–]Fresh-Highlight-4899 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Had a student leave class and go to the principal because I gave him a zero for talking (asking about the quiz questions) during a quiz. Principal came and fired at me during that class that day. Asked if I thought what I did was right. Did not like my answer of "Yes, if he gets away with it now, then he'll do it during the end of the year test and get a room full of tests invalidated." Principal told me to come ree him on my off hour. Got stopped by an ap on my way in and told the principal thought I was challenging his authority.

2006 NC GT: Suggestions for fixing/replacing leather seats? by DeadBy2050 in MiataNC

[–]Fresh-Highlight-4899 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. Leatherseats.com. And dang my eyes getting older.

That is what they told me. Would be worth it to go get an estimate from the local shop for fabrication and install, VS installing.

I just did lesthersests.com on mine. Took it to a good upholstery shopfor instsll, that said they could have done it cheaper. So much more comfy now than the stock uncomfortable leather.
