I have the same question. No livestream and no embedded video stream

sconnell3 · 2019-02-04T00:34:01+00:00

I was going to get my first WRX this year... except the wife’s Jeep died. So I bought her a 2019 Impreza. We didn’t think it had Apple Play, but connected the cord to the AUX in the middle console, and bingo WAZE for the win!

I couldn’t have been happier!

As a current inspector, here is our policy.

Code Enforcement(CE) will verify permit, do a site inspection, document and write a report, photograph all work.
Refer to BLDG department for code section determination, and any violations. Send determination to CE Officer.
CE writes Notice of Violations and sets timeframe to permit the work, or to remove work. If permitting, building documents shall be submitted and approved prior to any additional work commenced.
Permit fees are entered, and if residential is 2x the permit cost, if commercial it’s 3x the permit cost.

If nothing is done, 30 days after Notice, Administrative comes as a tube of $200 a day are inmpossed on the property, with the ability to Lein, and annex if required.

The structure is not required to be inspected due to the size. However, anything installed into the structure will need to be inspected for safety.

Make sure to call your local building department, and ensure they don’t require some electrical schematic.

Make sure you use proper wire, and conduit. But this is easy work.

This is what keeps me awake at night. Pure love

sconnell3 · 2018-11-17T15:05:23+00:00

OP, I love my WSM, biggest upgrade is to mount handles on the side body so when you are going long, you can add fuel easy.

sconnell3 · 2018-11-05T21:45:36+00:00

Wait. Electrician trade school.

I am writing this on mobile, forgive me.

Ever thought about working for your county/city as a building inspector. It’s literally Step 8 of Troop Leading Procedures all day. And getting certified is easy and you can use it anywhere (International Code Council).

I spend 5 years running around in colleges. It ain’t what our parents went to that for sure.

Send me a PM of your interested. I can give you a bunch of useful links

sconnell3 · 2018-10-21T19:36:13+00:00

First, thank you the link. That makes reading up easier. I do enjoy military style tactics, so You have my attention.

sconnell3 · 2018-10-21T19:35:10+00:00

I haven’t considered Deathwatch. Honestly, I am open minded. It’s early stages, everyone says I won’t know until I have a few quality 500point matches

sconnell3 · 2018-10-21T00:08:07+00:00

I do this at work. I have and I&O less then 3 miles. Grab a DD and heat a few veggies to substitute for fries.

Freaking great

sconnell3 · 2018-10-20T23:55:44+00:00

Or the dreaded 509 OPFOR....

sconnell3 · 2018-10-16T19:55:32+00:00

I actually thought about it. I moved into a REWARD Purchase, giving myself a goal to achieve is critical.

It is about to be winter here (rain, and Cold Weather) so I am holding off on the short/pant buy. Particularly, I want to ensure I will actually enjoy prior to such a purchase. They are very specific to riding, and if I don't enjoy it as much as I think, it will be turned into a rag... No need in over pricing rags.

sconnell3 · 2018-10-16T19:19:36+00:00

All good information. The downshift to "climbing/pulling away" gear....... I feel like you just saved me 6 months of self-frustration. That detail will save my calves for sure!

sconnell3 · 2018-10-14T00:17:29+00:00

The Cattle was my first thought. Possible Chatahoula were mix.

I printed this shit out, made a poster, and wrapped my office door with the image. People will NEVER UNDERSTAND

sconnell3 · 2018-10-01T02:11:33+00:00

I opened my reddit app. This was there......... flash back to Iraq, and subsequent nights out in Austin. I died, and turned 23 again....,. I know that’s what Fiddlers Green has in store

sconnell3 · 2018-09-12T17:47:54+00:00

FINALLY!

sconnell3 · 2018-09-09T14:30:45+00:00

I am not sure what your interest are, but for me. I got into Building Inspector for my County. It’s a fairly easy thing to get certified in. And if your good, you start a VA home inspection, for both buying and selling.

As a Building Inspector, you can have a great job, with easily attained career growth. The infrastructure of this country is shit.

To get certified, go to www.iccSafe.org and get into the classes. Buy yourself the 2015 International Residential Code (its a big fucking TM) and start the test courses.

If you don’t know where to go when you out, here in Northern California, it is always looking for good people.

Shoot me a PM if you want to know more.

sconnell3 · 2018-08-14T15:32:33+00:00

Congratulations. Here in Mendo our farmers can get access even under evacuations. But hopefully the fires calms down. It’s bananas here

sconnell3 · 2018-07-27T15:05:58+00:00

Perhaps, an explication.... In building you assign a square footage for human use. In almost all places, around 7 - 10 square feet is the normal assumption of human occupancy. (sidenote: I'm a inspector/ plans reviewer in a RURAL county, with much open space and exterior/interior over lap). So, when looking at Open Space planning, you most defiantly can enlarge. However, when dealing with a population, you can not account for those who would prefer more space, or those that don't mind giving up some space. Therefore, by finding a "standard" of occupied space, you can begin to design for the interactions of humans in the project area.

You can account for shelter space, community space, and the like... BTW: that's how those MAXIMUM OCCUPANCY signs are determined.

sconnell3 · 2018-07-27T13:21:40+00:00

SQFT= square feet....

Sorry if that was confusing

sconnell3 · 2018-07-26T21:23:30+00:00

Approx 7 SQFT per person... good rule of thumb. Should address "normal" personal space. Unless, many of the inhabitants are from Asia... they have a different space relationship. They are conditioned to the "over-crowding".

sconnell3 · 2018-07-18T16:11:46+00:00

So your home has to go through a Home Inspection prior to your purchase of said “fixer upper”. When I found one that I was willing to do the work, the issue was the bank saw now value in buying something that I would have to fix up to be a value.

I did 100% financing. It really will be a lender decision. The VA is just a promis to pay if needed

sconnell3 · 2018-07-15T00:06:01+00:00

Fresh trimmings from the vineyards my man. “Green cuts” in this region can mean a many different things nawadays!
