    New Job at Deere..Need safety shoes with internal metatarsal protection

    All the Deere facilities I have been in have 'moon boot' protectors that you slip on over your shoes/boots and hopefully you use until you find out more information, but I would check first. I got mine at Quad City Safety. Might be a similar store in the DSM area. Most larger retail stores...

    Best Thing I ever Ate- Sandwich

    You might be my long lost brother. That is about the only sandwich I ever order at a new place. And to be honest, I think my French Dip search started after I ate at JP Sissons after a baseball game when I was in high school. Thus far, none have come close. I am not sure if they are still...

    Goodbye, great state of Iowa...

    Did you work at the Rock Island Arsenal? I know a few people who jumped ship when they found out they were heading to the Detroit area if they stayed on board. I don't know how bad the area is...I am sure it is hurting, but I've got at least 2 connections that live in the area. Hope it works...

    New Board vs Wind

    ASCE Code Windspeed is based on 90 mph 3 sec gust for much of the US (including tornado alley). Only on the coastlines does that speed go up, which is due to the sustained winds of a hurricane. This is based on a 50 year return. some other factors: Not sure what importance factor is on the...

    Iowa beating (2) Ohio State

    The whole 'like the Texas football team' I believe is referring to when Iowa played Texas close in the Alamo Bowl. The response from a lot of non-Iowa fans was that the 'Horns didn't want to be there - a similar argument as another poster made about the OSU basketball team. Texas was ok that...

    Foundation Repair Companies

    Was your quote for mudjacking or helical piers? The 2 common fixes are pressure injected grout (mudjacking) or helical piers. pressure injected grout works by injecting the grout under the footing, stabilizes the subgrade below footing. helical piers are steel shafts that are drilled down to...

    Man Cave Project

    Wallruss, Working on my mancave as well. I feel like I am in the same boat as you, I noticed a few of the spots after painting. I think you'll be ok, my wife doesn't notice them and they are hard to spot unless you put a surface light against the wall. I guess one thing I did a little...

    Horrible Coaching

    It's crazy how a play that happened 2 weeks ago can change this game. Going back to the Indiana game, just before half, Indiana was trying to salt the half away, choosing 3 straight runs. Iowa calls a timeout after the last one on 4th down. I think the idea was the try to block the punt, or...

    Wow OSU is bad

    Bobber, I don't think he is trying to connect ISU and OSU. I think his point is that you are playing the game that cytheguy said where team x beats team y by z points and comparing. Teams have up and down weeks. And his point is that since Iowa's greatest margin of victory came against ISU...

    Wow OSU is bad

    ajk4st8 after the game i think the announcers hit it on the head, the last 4 weeks OSU has found it's gameplan in pounding the running game and only using TP's arm sparingly (except when you play against MN and secondary is horrible, TP had a field day). I think we played this game similar to...
