Mom is still feeling bad, so I got elected 1 to 1 to take Victoria to work again this morning. (In case of a tie vote, the 'speaker of the house' has the final say). She is slowly getting better at speed control, but she still wants to ride the white line with her right wheel and still loves to keep her foot on the brake. But she did much better in getting us down the road. But, in making a left into the park where she worked, she let about five cars pass in the opposite direction with plenty of room to turn between them, and waited for a red light a 1/4 mile down the road to change and hold up traffic for her. About two or three cars coming out of the park were starting to go back to sleep waiting for her to turn into the park. When we go to where she worked, I told her I wanted to see her park the car perpendicular to the curb for a change. It's head-in parking, and there's all kind of open spaces- about 10 in a row empty. The past two days have been at about a forty five degree angle, and she has to learn. Well, she got in the first time at about a 30 degree angle. Not good, I told her, so she backed out without turning the wheel any, put the car back into drive, and pulled back in without turning the wheel. Not good enough. So she backed out again, reversed direction, and again pulled in. Again, without turning the steering wheel. "Try turning the wheel to the right, back out, turn the wheel to the left and try pulling in". Now we have a 30 degree angle to the left. "Try it again". She finally got it in straight. Almost. Right dead center over the line, not between them. We'll try getting between them some other time, because she was going to be late if we tried to get between the lines. I can tell right now that parallel parking ought to really be a circus. More to come--

Today's Featured Article - The Nuts and Bolts of Fasteners - Part 2 - by Curtis Von Fange. In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together. When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and
