A Texas appeals court upheld the state's sodomy law Thursday in the case of two men charged
with having sex in a private home. The nine-member 14th Court of Appeals voted 7-2 to overturn a June ruling by three members of the same panel that said the law was unconstitutional because it forbids sex between same-sex partners, yet allows the same acts between heterosexuals.
The sodomy law, which has been on the books for more than a century, was challenged after John Geddes Lawrence
and Tyron Garner were arrested on Sept. 17, 1998 and charged with engaging in homosexual conduct. Harris County sheriff's deputies had entered Lawrence's apartment after receiving a false report of an armed intruder inside but found the men having sex. Under the sodomy law, homosexual oral and **** sex is a Class C misdemeanor, punishable by a fine of up to $500.
armed and dangerous lol

dam yuo are lucky my school auuto deptarment doesnt even have a teacher now it sucks no autshop i wish we had it fro my final year in school. and another thing you guys have a fuckign dyno in you auto dept.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! all we have is a 6 by shop with 6 lifts
Oh I couldn't help myself.
And someone said he hit the brakes right when it happened. BULLSHIT. Have you ever got on a bike with the back tire off the ground and pedaled fast as hell and dropped the back tire? What happened? Did you launch like a rocket down the street? **** NO. This uncle bens rice mobile has about as much torque as you do on a bike with the tire in the air. It simply made contact with the floor and stalled.

Actually on that day they were heat cycling all the systems for the vehicle and not pulling a final number tune on it. Being safe was in mind during that session.

I guess it just all depends on how you look at it. Is welding class safe? Is metal fab safe? Is chemistry class safe? The dyno is a lot safer than welding machines, big *** grinders and deadly chemicals, I know because I have been in all those classes. Hell the dyno is probably the safest thing about our Ag classes.
We learned our lesson and now we know how to properly strap a FWD car, it wont happen again. Like everything else in life, if something breaks or whatever, you fix it. You don't bitch and cry, you learn from your mistakes, suck it up and move on. Also having the teacher "severely reprimanded" isn't going to teach us a damn thing, this class is the ONLY reason why I actually enjoy school.
Safety is the main concern in this class, Michael, Thomas and everyone else that was in that class can all agree with that but Larson isn't our baby sitter, sometimes **** happens.

Yeah, because the car is totally going to go flying out of control. Once the wheels hit solid ground they will stop. It might go a little ways but not enough to kill someone, if someone wants an example then watch Mythbusters where they drive a car on a highway into the trailer. Once the tires hit the trailer the car doesn't shoot inside. Good old Newtons laws.

LOL at him getting a "in car dyno tune". That is priceless, I think the last one he had "in car dyno tuned" made around 700rwhp.
Just goes to show not everyone in here has taken the time to know who they are adressing.

Secondly, Pennys point is a properly calibrated dynojet will yield similar numbers to any other properly calibrated dynojet. That's why a correction factor is always used for comparisons. However, yes many operators can trick the dyno into reading higher numbers and I suspect that one of these two things is to blame in this case.
Moreover, I'm from the school of understanding an object or tool before implementing it. Having gone to the same high school as these kids, and taken that same course I'd have given these guys much more credit then they are currently due. Unfortunately that video is doing a pretty good job of changing my mind. Hopefully a few bad apples aren’t ruining the reputation of a whole group.
