  • how good is a score of 88 on the asvab?

    i am a senior in college majoring in political science. i have a 2.9 gpa, and am pretty much out of savings for tuition. i work full time and am an independent, but do not qualify for any financial aid. so i thought i would maybe go do wn and take the ASVAB to see how i could do, and see about if serving would help me pay for school. my recruiter called me today and just told me that i scored an 88, and wanted me to set up an appointment with the head recruiter in Houston ( i live in Beaumont, about 100 miles away). is an 88 a good score? will it be worthwhile to go meet with the head recruiter in houston?

  • what would i use to measure watts being consumed?

    i am building a display for a project to demonstrate the electricity usage for a LED bulb vs an Incandescent and a CFL. I believe that i need a wattmeter, but cant find one online for a reasonable (cheap) price. i have found an ammeter for a good price, but im only trying to demonstrate the difference between a 100 watt, 32 watt, and a 7 watt bulb, and would like to be able to demonstrate the usage, rather than just referring to the package. any ideas where i could find one of these or any ideas?

  • options on an lc smith shotgun?

    i recently obtained an lc smith 16 ga shotgun that is in pretty rough shape. the bluing is about 20%, the buttstock is a dark dark brown with plenty of scars and the fore stock is much, much lighter. most of the screws are a little buggered on the corners of the slots. i looked on the lc smith website and it was manufacturd in 1914. it shoots great however. but im having a hell of a time affording 16 ga shells, and is it possible to sleeve the barrels to go to 20ga? ive seen the little skeeters reducers things, pretty much just a bushing, but im looking for a full tube replacement. is anyone aware of any options, ideas?
