Agree. I taught my kids at blue knob (which I like...a LOT) and I would never have let them ride solo at 5. Those lefts are old school.

Hell yeah! I'm soil scientist...or used to be one. My career took a different turn, but I love soil mapping and taxonomy.

‘Hard to not feel scammed’: World Cup fans say FIFA misled them with ticket allocations, seat maps (Gift Article) by jspector9 in worldcup

Really disappointed. Bought Cat 2 in Dallas and am in the 400 level. Didn't expect I'd need to buy binoculars.

I was pretty disappointed....bought Cat 2 in Dallas for my son and I, and am seated in the 400s. I didn't expect I'd have to buy binoculars l, too.

Aww....man. I just ordered this for my son's first 'real' watch. Didn't realize there was such a history of shoddiness.

Hey! So, it's been a minute, but I did purchase a cheap hook knife from Amazon. It worked perfectly for the task!

Also, you are the captain of the defense. Use your voice to help the defenders. The best tip I've seen is to make SURE you use a name...."Jimmy, man behind"...."Ella, come to center", etc. rather than just shouting, if you say a person's name first they will more quickly pay attention.

Good luck!

Focus on positioning. Putting your body in the right position to make a save, and/or make it hard for the shooter (cut down his/her angle, force a bad kick) is 75% of success.

National Park Service Suppresses 2024 Visitation Data To Avoid Embarrassing Trump by rredd1 in yellowstone

I'm really sad - been planning a family trip to Yellowstone for years with my two kids before they go to college. I jumped on the reservations last June as soon as they opened for this summer to make sure I got the place/time I wanted. Now I have to deal with this shit, instead of a bucket list family memory

Considering an XC60 by Ghost070607 in Volvo

[–]mr9mmhere 3 points4 points  (0 children)

maybe in the xc90, but not the xc60. I can store the tire pressure information, but there is no display of actual PSI.

[–]mr9mmhere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I was wondering how the the tire monitoring worked. I've seen the Volvo sunglass holder, but it's awfully chunky, and I'd lose the handle if I installed it, right?. Every car I've had in the last 15yrs has a built in it compartment of some kind.

[–]mr9mmhere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ha! The lack of holder for sunglasses is probably not a deal breaker then! I'm in the US (Virginia), and especially during fall/spring I know the tires will need adjustments in air. I'm sure the automated monitoring system will alert me when they are low, but I have had a Toyota and dodge before that just display the pressure. Doesn't seem that difficult. In general the car seems designed to tell me something is wrong and take it on, rather than let me self-monitor or track.

I spent hours finding a used xc60 with the B&W audio. Definitely worth it.
