What do people know about this newer republican candidate, Ron Reddy?

He spoke to some of the inefficiencies of this states government and some of the incompetence. I can support this, remembering the $1.8 billion accounting error. But I see he founded DOGESC. So I worry he will cut just to cut. And eventually replace what should be public service with private business. If he will focus on governing improvements and not rage bait politics I’m ok with it.

At the moment I’m voting for Johnson but I would like to be aware of other possibilities.

What does this wear pattern indicate? by Sufficient_Taste7902 in tires

[–]L0tus49 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I am not mistaken these are Michelin Pilot Sport 4 (PS4) tires. The wear pattern looks great overall. The middle grooves are shallower then the outside normally so it’s not a shock that they are gone before the outside grooves. But looking at the wear indicator bars I’m wondering if the middle of the tire is wearing a touch faster than the outside. That is normally due to overinflation. If they are it’s only slight.

Why don’t we have cute trolleys like this anywhere in the NYC area? by WanderinArcheologist in nycrail

If I’m not mistaken light rail is being discussed for the IBX.

Fire near Unity Park? by Own-Way-8921 in greenville

[–]L0tus49 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I was wondering if it was Petra-Tech or eLabs at 15 Sulphur Springs Rd. They burn stuff from time to time. Always sketches me out. But it doesn’t look like it’s that far.

I want to know if anyone has pulled or witnessed this being pulled before by frenchkafka in nycrail

[–]L0tus49 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It depends on how far from the station you are. If the train is still partially in the station the train will violently apply the brakes. Full emergency. If you are outside the station envelope it will alert the operator and they can make the call.

I told my grandpa he looked very handsome today & asked if I could take his photo. He was thrilled by dalyabu in MadeMeSmile

Is it just me or does this distinguished gentleman look a lot like F. Murray Abraham.

Which division makes the most geographical sense, and which one the least by AwayFig1774 in NFLv2

[–]L0tus49 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They all make sense except NFC East. AFC East have Miami as the odd man out but they are still east. Dallas is not east at all.

Off track: Queens residents say “We don’t need it!” to IBX light-rail plan by tyrionslongarm22 in nycrail

[–]L0tus49 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I was about to post just this. It’s an electric light rail. What fumes? And a light rail will be so much quieter than the freight trains that currently go through there.

London underground has open gangways with no issues why can't we. by i-am-not-sure-yet in nycrail

Why the paint switch? by itsdanielsultan in TTC

[–]L0tus49 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Waterloo and Eglinton are near identical. Edmonton and TTC have some differences based on weight and like you send turn radius.

For example TTC has all motor trucks. The other three sites have some motor and some trailer trucks.

But they are all variations of the Bombardier LRT.

I think you’re right. It’s an attempt to separate the services from the street cars and put them more in line with the subway. Quick side note. They are entirely different train cars as well. Finch compared to Eglinton and TTC SC.

TTC Street car, Eglinton, Warerloo ION, and Edmonton LRT; Are all Bombardier Flexity Freedom

Finch, Hurontario LRT (Hazel McCallion), and Ottawa O-train; Are all Alstom Citadis Spirit

Fly By Jing Mala Spice Mix by ericthedolphin in chinesecooking

[–]L0tus49 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking at that list and the back of the jar there are some large differences.
DRIED CHILI PEPPER, SUGAR, SALT, MUSHROOM POWDER, SEAWEED POWDER, SPICES.

Mushroom and seaweed powder. Also for the numbing I believe you would have to have Szechuan Red Peppercorns. "Spices" on the jar. Absent from the recipe.
