Engineering Students' Electrathon Car Places 2nd at Barber Motorsports
A multi-disciplinary team of materials and mechanical engineering students finished second at the Electrathon Race at Barber Motorsports behind professional team Tiger Racing on Monday, April 7th.
The team was made up of mechanical engineering students Catherine Clark and Amie Eder and materials engineering students Chris Graves and Ranae Wright.
The UAB team ran a total of 17 laps over two races on the 2.4-mile course. The car averaged 25 miles per hour with a top speed of 37 miles per hour in the morning race.
"Good balance is needed between speed and endurance to win in this competition," says materials assistant professor Haibin Ning, Ph.D. "The rule is that only one set of batteries is allowed for each hour-long race, and in that hour, the driver tries to get as many laps as possible."
McWane Center Outreach Event - Communicating Science & Engineering with Public Audience

I think the debate about mechanical broadheads will go on forever. A couple of things to consider. If your bow generates a minimum of 60lbs of kinetic energy, then a good mechanical could be a choice. but what distance are you going to shoot? If you are shootin at 35,40 yds. or even farther unless you still have around 60lbs. of energy, that is where you run into trouble.
I keep all my shots at 25yds. or less. I know my bow is generating about 70lbs. of energy....so a good mechanical will work. Last year I was shooting a Browning Bow.....slower, but Quiet .I think the energy was close to 58lbs. so I was pushing the envelope with mechanicals...but I wanted to try one anyways. it was an inexpensive Satellite 3 blade. I took a Button Buck(that I thought was a doe) at 7yds.
The broadhead blasted through at a quartering away angle . it came out through the front leg at the top section were it meets the shoulder. Left a large hole. The deer didn't go 20 yds. The arrow kept going!
if that shot had been any farther away I wouldn't have taken it. I doubt the broadhead would have had the energy to do that kind of damage.
Fast forward to today. 2011 Exile 285fps/70lbs. kenetic energy...swacker 100 grain broadhead....do I think it will kill just about any deer at 20yds.....you better believe it!!
I think if you do your homework, and your bow generates enough energy, mechanicals can work very well.
I have used fixed blades all of my life...successfully. Last year I tried a mechanical.This year "SWHACKER"

Psychology and astrology can offer many insights into the inner mechanisms of relationships. The combination of both - a psychological view of the partners and their needs, enlightened by the deep wisdom of the horoscope - can help us to find our way through the sometimes uncerstain sphere of love more consciously and with more alternatives and choices.
The Relationship Horoscope is designed for love relationships between two adults. Liz Greene's language is lively and inspiring, without astrological jargon, but very profound in psychological terms. Her interpretation of your relationship can lead the way towards further personal growth and a more fulfilling relationship.
The 38-40 page text is centered around the following topics:
" I must admit, I almost fell off the chair while reading. I wasn't expecting to find such a detailed account of our current problems. "
" The relationship report is a valuable tool for the dialogue with my companion. Very beneficial to our getting along. The contents are very accurate."Read more Feedback

Proposal seeks to limit annoying behavior by off-road recreationalists
Those who buzz around on all-terrain vehicles, motorized bicycles or other off-road vehicles will need to be more careful about staying far away enough from Muskego homes so as not to be annoying if a proposed ordinance is adopted.
The Muskego Public Safety Committee lent its recommendation to the proposal last night.
The proposed ordinance would prohibit riders from doing things that would cause substantial annoyance to any reasonable person. The proposal will go to the Common Council on Nov. 22.
Mukwonago stages another Level 2 surprise
One year ago, the Mukwonago football team delivered perhaps the upset of the WIAA postseason, stunning No. 1-ranked Sun Prairie in Level 2 of the playoffs en route to the state semifinals.
This year's Level 2 showing was no less shocking, and no less convincing.
Holding down one of the most high-powered offenses in the state to a season-low scoring output, Mukwonago completely flipped the script from a 38-6 loss on the same field two weeks earlier and upset Muskego on Oct. 31, 22-7. The win earned the Indians a whale of a Level 3 opportunity against longtime rival Arrowhead.
"The first time we played them, they took it to us," Mukwonago coach Clay Iverson said of Muskego. "That was a good game for a conference title. We definitely did not save anything (knowing we could meet again in the playoffs), they just beat us. You come through this league and come one game away from first place, you don't want to get into a situation where you're throwing stuff out that works just because of one bad game. ... Our kids kept the faith even though the first time, frankly, we didn't coach very well or play very well. This time was different."

Muskego man, 24, accused of sexually assaulting 12-year-old girl
Authorities on Thursday charged a 24-year-old Muskego man with sexually assaulting a 12-year-old girl multiple times, and Waukesha police are asking the public for help identifying other possible victims.
Ethan C. Holt was arrested Tuesday after Waukesha police investigators learned he communicated with the teen girl through social media and cellphone apps before assaulting her, according to a news release.
Holt used Tinder, KiK, Whisper, Snapchat and text message to "groom" the girl and sent her nude pictures using those apps and the profile name "probablyinthegym," police said.
Investigators believe Holt may have done the same to other girls in the area.
Holt was charged Thursday with two counts of first degree child sexual assault and one count of using a computer to facilitate a child sex crime, all felonies.» Read Full Article
Roadrunner Transportation Systems earnings up 8.9%
Roadrunner Transportation Systems Inc. earned $14.4 million in its third quarter, up 8.9% from the $13.2 million the Cudahy trucking and logistics firm netted a year ago.
Earnings per share for the three months ended Sept. 30 totaled 37 cents, up from 35 cents for the third quarter of 2013.
Roadrunner's revenue jumped 37%, to $498.1 million, fueled by acquisitions.
Roadrunner has become one of the country's major trucking companies in large part by buying other carriers and logistics firms. The most recent purchases include the acquisition in late February of Rich Logistics, an Arkansas trucking company that generated about $113 million in revenue in 2013.
State sues Flat Rate Plumbing, says it deceived customers
Flat Rate Plumbing Inc. of New Berlin has been sued by the Wisconsin attorney general's office on accusations it used fraud and lies to trick its customers into spending thousands of dollars on unnecessary replacements during in-home service calls for routine repairs.
Some of those replacements were for items that Flat Rate's repairmen purposely broke in order to get the job, according to the lawsuit, filed Monday.
"Flat Rate has routinely deceived consumers who called for simple repairs such as unclogging drains or fixing leaky pipes, into spending large amounts — often thousands of dollars — for extensive unnecessary work," the attorney general's office said in a news release late Monday.
The release announced the lawsuit against Flat Rate Plumbing, its owner and president, Lester Gumieny Jr., and plumber Andrew J. Gomez. Both are accused of violating Wisconsin's consumer protection laws. Gomez personally engaged in deceptive sales, according to the lawsuit.
"Flat Rate's technicians have falsely told homeowners that equipment could not be repaired and had to be replaced, that clogged pipes could not be cleared but had to be replaced, and that houses could not be sold unless old pipes were upgraded, among other false statements," the news release goes on. "Flat Rate's technicians sometimes have intentionally damaged homeowners' pipes or other plumbing equipment, without consent, in order to pressure the homeowners to agree to proposed service jobs."» Read Full Article

Muskego wins convincingly over Manitowoc
With a convincing 31-7 victory over visiting Manitowoc Lincoln, Muskego's football team advanced to the second round of the WIAA playoffs for the first time since 2011.
The Warriors' reward? A rematch with their rivals, the Mukwonago Indians, a team the Warriors hammered, 38-6, in the regular season finale just one week ago.
"We look forward to it," Muskego coach Ken Krause said. "It's our crosstown rival. We have a traveling trophy now. We have similar type of athletes. The coaching staffs do a good job with their kids. We're excited about it and excited to be at home."
"It's exciting (to play Mukwonago), and this is a very big weight off all our shoulder," senior quarterback Jeff Schweitzer added. "It's a big relief for all of us. The new season started today, and it started off on a high note."
The Warriors (8-2) earned the rematch with Mukwonago thanks to a dominant defensive effort against the Ships (5-5) in a first-round contest Friday, Oct. 24, at home. Muskego held Manitowoc Lincoln to 295 yards and didn't allow the Ships to score until the closing seconds.» Read Full Article

Rep. Bill Kramer faces jail time after pleading to sexual assault
Waukesha — Just days ahead of a scheduled jury trial, state Rep. Bill Kramer (R-Town of Waukesha) Thursday pleaded no contest to reduced charges of two misdemeanor counts of fourth-degree sexual assault.
Kramer entered the plea during what was to have been a status conference on the case, stemming from felony sexual assault charges filed in March against the former No. 2 lawmaker in the Assembly.
Assistant District Attorney Debra Blasius said her office will recommend three years of probation, with a variety of conditions, including nine months in jail with work-release privileges.
Kramer, 49, will not have to register as a sex offender, but must undergo a sex offender assessment and any recommended treatment. Sentencing is set for Nov. 25 before Reserve Judge Neal Nettesheim.
By avoiding a felony conviction, Kramer will be able to serve the remainder of his term in the Assembly, which ends in January. He is not seeking re-election this fall.» Read Full Article

Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Staff Reviews Customer Reviews Q&A Articles & Videos Accessories Our take on the Alpine SPS-619 by Buck Pomerantz Why replace your car's original speakers? The speakers that originally came in your car were made from inexpensive materials, designed to create acceptable sound at the lowest possible cost to the manufacturer. If you love music, you deserve better. Name-brand aftermarket speakers deliver fuller, richer sound with considerably more detail and nuance, and they're capable of playing louder and cleaner than factory speakers. Connect new speakers to your factory radio and you'll get the best possible sound from your dealer-equipped system. Pair them up with a new car stereo for a level of enjoyment that can rival a high-fidelity home audio experience. The sonic specialists at Alpine optimize their SPS-619 6"x9" speakers for great range and impressive tone definition, even at low power levels. You can connect these versatile Type-S Series speakers to your factory stereo for an immediate sonic improvement, or hook them up to a powerful aftermarket stereo or amp for increased performance. Mineral-fortified polypropylene cones are exceptionally stiff, yet lightweight, which means they can push out accurate bass and deliver clear midrange. Resilient rubber surrounds help keep the woofer centered for accurate cone movement, reducing distortion. Silk dome midrange drivers and tweeters bring out all the fullness and detail in your music. Grilles are not included factory grilles are appropriate for most installations.

Mica adds strength and heat resistance to polypropylene, resulting in reduced distortion and improved reliability. Silk Dome Midrange: Each speaker has a 1.0" wide-range silk dome midrange for excellent midrange sound reproduction. Silk Dome Tweeter: Each speaker also features a 5/8" silk dome tweeter for detailed and accurate high frequency reproduction. Efficient Design: The SPS-619's high-efficiency design allows the speaker to be powered by your factory or aftermarket head unit, resulting in an easy system improvement for many vehicles requiring 6x9 speakers. No Grilles: No grilles are included with these speakers. Bottom Mount Spacer Rings: The supplied plastic spacer rings allow you to bottom mount the speakers.

Yes | No 5 out of 5 real nice Written By matt k., kansas city on Tuesday, May 29, 2012 i have them in my 91 cutlass in the rear deck hooked into my amp and they rock like you wouldn,t believe i highly recomend these speakers to any one 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 these sound REAL good Written By matt k, cape cod MA on Saturday, February 25, 2012 ive had these for a little while and once they break in these speakers do punch pretty hard in terms of tighter accurate bass. The best part is the mids and highs. a good eq will help make the bass boomier if thats what you want but the overall sonic range of these is pretty damn good. i use an alpine head unit without an amp, and they sound real good, they are bottom mounted on the rear deck in a 79 camaro which makes the bass response waaaay better than what it would be if i didnt use the trunk as an enclosure (these were in a volvo mid door panel mounted). your gonna need a sub with these if you want bigger bass and with an amp driving them they do get LOUD but no distortion ever. SO FAR no problems other than the kinda cheesy factory connecters they come with. ive hammered these pretty good but you need to let them "break in" for a bit before you play em loud. Pros: mid and highs sound real good, durable, well made. Cons: factory connectors may come off under heavy bass, solder em on no biggie price is kinda steep, they do need a little "break in time" 4 out of 4 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 2 questions already asked I own a 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo with infinity factory speakers and today i just bought the alpine type s 6x9's please tell me i can fit these bad boys in my front doors??? [ Kory Apr 17, 2014 ] 1 answer It looks like the Alpine speakers will be too tall to fit under your factory speaker grilles. If you are willing to modify the door panel/speaker grille - then you can probably get them to fit. [ Jeff Staff Apr 21, 2014 ] I drive a 1997 dodge ram and the factory front door speakers are 6x9 and the website says they won't fit in my front door and I was wondering why they wouldn't fit even though they are the same size? [ wyatt Mar 24, 2014 ] 1 answer It looks like there are issues with both the depth available in the door, and the distance available under the factory grill for the tweeter. For full details on fit or installation please contact an Advisor by phone (1-800-324-9695) or online chat.
