get new wiper blades

I had all season tires, not as good as winter tires, but better than summer tires.

get a small shovel for your car, toss a bag or 2 of road salt and/or sand in the back or on the floor in the backseat for when /if you get stuck and some weight distribution.

Get a HUGE brush for your car like this one. getting the snow off the roof of the car is a courtesy to everyone on the road behind you. Even if its a honda civic or an SUV.

also, toss your camping sleeping bag, or a large blanket in the car and leave it there, I also had an overnight bag just in case I did get stuck somewhere.

I keep a short, multi wick, jar candle and some waterproof camping matches in my car also, under the passenger seat to keep it from tipping. its an air freshener during the summer, and emergency heat/light source during the winter.(I replace every fall). and hunting hand warmer packets. .

Might want to also keep some super warm gloves IN the car as well as a warm hat and scarf in addition to what you wear every day.

Yep. I just finished engineering school this spring, and I've gone through my fair share of pads.

Green Paper is by far the most commonly used engineering paper. It's fairly thin, a little less than printer paper. I mostly used this paper for scratch calculations and everyday homework.

Buff is a bit thicker, but still has the same layout. I liked using this when doing hand calculations that would be included in reports or labs.

For notebooks, look for a Lab Notebook or Engineering Notebook. There are a few options out there, and it depends if you want a spiral or bound book. Computation Notebooks held up very well, and helped preserve my notes.

BENDER 63.4% 1st CHOICE

It was kind of worrying to see all of the Saralyn Romanishan signs in front of mansions in the Wedge. I'm glad the bulk of the ward stayed sane, and I hope Bender now realizes that the NIMBY vote is a lost cause, even if you court them by downzoning the neighborhood interior.

Congrats to /u/CMAndrewJohnson for winning 87% of the first choice votes in his ward.

Edit: Looks like the socialist might win in ward 3. Someone please send her a copy of Walkable City by Jeff Speck (or at least his TED talk).

I have this series of books and a pretty heady technical manual if you want to borrow them for some light reading. I'm assuming you want to build bicycle frames and components. Let me know if you have any questions about layups or molding.

I also remember WITC had a composites materials program that they closed due to lack of interest. The industry is not really here and probably will never be without some huge gains in technology. The cure times are much shorter at higher altitude like in Colorado(+4000ft), it doesn't make sense for actual production of parts here (830ft).

No, they definitely formed in St. Paul ( https://www.allmusic.com/artist/h%C3%BCsker-d%C3%BC-mn0000639053 )

If you want some insight on Husker Du (and the Replacements), check out, Our Band Could Be Your Life: Scenes from the American Indie Underground 1981 - 1991. It's a great read.

John Dillinger Slept Here. Fascinating read about St. Paul as a gangster haven in the 20s and 30s

My 2 cents: rent these two books from the library https://amzn.to/2WogQv9 and https://amzn.to/2qNeA4X

Much cheaper than a counselor and better advice.

I keep two scrapers -- a long cheap unit with a brush and plastic scraper for moving bulk, and a brass scraper for taking ice off the glass (if needed).

I guess if there was a long brushed scraper where it had a brass blade protected under a plastic one that'd be cool -- don't want to mess up the paint or mess up the brass -- but I don't know how much I'd want to be spending, anyway.

I've started crossstitching. A little. My advice is don't start with this. Crossstitch is not difficult in itself. It's the pattern complexity that creates difficulty. The number of colors, size of the pattern, even the size of the cloth can make a pattern much harder.

If you want to start, get a really easy pattern. I'm talking 2 square inches. This is what I started on: https://www.amazon.com/dp/0762492279/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_An5BCbNRGF35Z it took me ~8 hours. You'll know by the end if you want to try something more difficult.

Get it Monday if you order now.

In all seriousness, get one of these: https://smile.amazon.com/Red-Dragon-VT-2-23-000-BTU/dp/B00004Z2FP/

Hell yeah. I wore sneakers (best cushioning) most days to walk to my ad agency job (1.1 miles) through many winters. Get a few pairs of woolrich 10-mile hike socks. I swear by them.

And get something like these. There will be a few days that are almost impossible without them.

What's a "trumpkin excuse"?

Anyways, educate yourself, it doesn't require a fancy degree and $200k in student loans debt:
