the last cabin filter I got for my sonata was a purolator and out of the box it had no arrow .. not sure why. in the past they always had a arrow.. but this one did not .. but the pleats are the pleats on that filter so it does not matter one way or the other.. now on our forester there is a...

i just clean the post and cable with a wire battery brush once right before summer and once right before winter and they stay clean no corrosion and always get a good connection. i dont put anything on them . been doing this ever since my first vehicle in 1975..no issues yet with corrosion or...

never ever heard the term "rolling coal" before ... but what sort of loser does that? I guess the answer to the question "can people really be that stupid?" is always going to be YES.

I don't honk at bad drivers, they are too arrogant to admit fault anyway and most times will blame you. I was mailing some letters and bills at a PO box afew months back and it is a one way . some moron comes driving down the wrong way as i was just trying to exit and of course in true...

I remember the elderly Beardtown ladies from a decade or so ago who doubled up on the market most years. They had some investment books and they were big investers in consumer staples. type stocks and funds. ....food, medicine , building materials, paper, clothing toiletry items, soap shampoo...

Wife and I likely wont make it in the millionaire club ,but we hope to be able to ramp up investing to the 1500 per month range and maybe slightly higher once the house is paid off and we dump SS retirement dollars into it. If we can stay the course, stay alive and healthy and "God willing and...

I always learn something new when I look at the boglehead forum. I am not a registered user there, I just lurk and read topics as I see fit . Boglehead can be somewhat addicting at times,kind of like BITOG site, one topic of interest leads to another and another and another . Hard to just...

I don't have the Boglehead books but have read many web pages about it. A quick search for "3 fund portfolio" brings up several. I recently discovered the "boglehead.org" forum . Lots of forums about investing and stocks and bonds and retirement etc. Similar in format to BITOG forums ...

I Heart radio and Apple does have many of Bob Brinker's 'Money talk" radio programs in podcasts. I enjoyed that radio show. Though many of his guests were way way out of my league in terms of $$ , The investment advise Bob talked about works as well for a thousandaire as it does for the...

That is sound advice for sure. I think many people are likely low in vitamin D especially in winter and even in summer many people are not out in the sun and when they are they use sunscreen which blocks vitamin D production. Lots of research studies indicate that blood levels above 30ng/ml...

That is sound advice for sure. I think many people are likely low in vit

You are in Turkey so I believe the temps you state are celsius, so 35C is 95 F and 0C is 32 F. At those temps I would just stick with whatever the Owner manual recommendations as the difference between 0W20 and 5W20 would be minimal at best. 32F is not cold.

unable to read that afr article, apparently one has to be a subscriber, but one can get plenty of protein with regular meals

Exactly, my brother has been a correctional officer for over 2 decades and the prisoners do not get protein supplements or shakes or other so called strength building, vitamins, minerals and the like. They get 3 squares a day and that's it. Yet the hard core prison lifters are very very strong...
