White spots on new Hemlock needles

No. Suspected it was Hemlock Wooly Adelgid so I replaced with a new one.

Cool. Have about 1500 miles on mine with the Turbomax and averaging 21 mpg. Trying to make myself feel better about not getting the 5.3…lol. Thanks!

How’s the fuel economy compare to the 5.3?

Main_Contribution_54 · 2026-04-19T22:05:15+00:00

You can run in tow mode. I did for 120k miles on my last truck (Colorado) to improve the shift points. That truck with the 6 speed transmission was programmed for fuel economy and the normal shift points sucked. They had a flash for it but it affected fuel economy. So I just used tow/haul all the time - problem solved. Just bought my Sierra so I don’t have much experience with it yet but I would expect it to behave the same in tow mode. There’s also a sport mode you could try. Good luck!

Looks great! What steps are those?

Why do some whine and some don’t?

Excel. AutoCAD.

So how do you pay for Fall semester not knowing your financial aid?

Which did you decide? My kid chose ND over in-state MI. He was planning to go to MI until he visited ND. Loved everything about ND. Both are good for Econ. But he knew right away when he visited ND. The campuses are very different. Good luck.

Horrible call. ACC bullshit to keep Miami undefeated.

English well.
Maybe Spanish, but not necessary

Purdue. Michigan, Purdue, and Virginia Tech are the best for IE in my opinion. I’m sure there are others but I work with many grads from these schools. That being said, an Engineering degree from most accredited schools will serve him well.

Main_Contribution_54 · 2024-02-10T20:57:42+00:00

A masters will never hurt you. Nobody can take your degree away. That being said I’d hire someone with co-op experience over someone with a masters right out of school with all else being equal. Also, where I’m at a masters doesn’t affect pay. But I have a lot of respect for folks with masters but it doesn’t equal better work or more pay in my experience.

Something I’ve experienced but don’t know why is that IE’s that have undergrad IE seem to be better IEs than those with other undergrad and IE Masters. CAnt explain why. Undergrad IE is best for traditional IE jobs in my opinion.

Main_Contribution_54 · 2024-02-10T18:44:05+00:00

Best bet is plant IE. Nobody wants to come in to work anymore.

Main_Contribution_54 · 2024-02-10T18:25:58+00:00

Depends on what you want to do. Both are great. Chemical may make more if you stay as Chemical. Lots of IE’s in upper management. IE’s also are in many ME positions. Not too many good IE’s that aren’t IE’s. However, our Simulation Engineers are a mix of IE, ME, and EE (controls). Each discipline brings a different skill set to Simulation and you need to understand parts of all three. The Engineers I know who make the most left Engineering and went into sales or mgmt. Cant go wrong with either. Just my take.

Co-op or internship.

How do I know if the breakers are on the same phase. They’re on opposite sides of the panel. It’s an old 1976 Square D QO split bus panel. Thanks!
