    Dog Showing Aggression to Certain People

    I recently adopted a 1 year old pitbull (I know, to most the title of this thread will now make sense) from the humane society, and she is an absolute sweetheart... 90% of the time. I've had issues with her showing aggression on 4 or 5 separate occasions. All situations were men, and all...

    Plant 16

    Curious to hear what % of corn planting the farming fanatics have done, or what it is in your area. Last nights storms make for a very slow morning, and the inch + of rain that they have forecast for Wednesday has everybody on edge. I would guess that the general % here is roughly 10-15% (not...

    When to Purchase a Home

    Lately I've been thinking more and more about real estate with each rent check I give to my landlord. I've always looked at real estate online as a hobby, and seeing the calculated mortgage rate being less expensive than what I'm paying for rent in a property I'll never own can start to make a...

    Weather Thread 11/30/15

    Didn't see a weather thread so I thought I'd get this going. The snow is starting to come down heavily now in Siouxland. They're calling for 6-10 inches and we would appear to be on pace with the system moving north/northwest.

    "Dumbest" Accidental Injury

    Stitches were an awesome way to start the week. After getting my computer fixed and shipped back this morning, I pulled the ultimate no-no and attempted to cut the box open with my left hand on the box to stabilize it. I made an excellent cut, it just happened to be my thumb. So 10 stitches...

    Video Editing - Drone Footage

    As sort of a gift for a couple of my customers, I'm putting together a video of harvest footage from my drone. I've used Windows Movie Maker in the past, and it seems to work fine. The problem I've run into is with music. I don't want to run into any issue of songs I don't "own" making the video...

    U of M/Dinkytown

    I'm heading up to the cities this Wednesday for a concert (Frank Turner) at the Varsity Theater. Having experienced the nightlife in downtown Minneapolis, but never in Dinkytown, I was just curious if any Fanatics had some must-do's or must-avoid's.

    Surface Pro 3

    Merry Christmas, fanatics! Hoping you and yours have had a great holiday season so far. I've been in the market for a new tablet/laptop for awhile, and have had my eye on the surface pros. I ended up getting a Surface Pro 3 tonight and I'm really loving it so far. I got the middle of the...

    Mediacom - ESPNU

    I'm sure this has been asked many times, but I'm on mobile, and between tasks at work. I recently set up mediacom in our house for the school year and went with their performance package. When I was on the phone with a representative, I asked for a channel list that came with the package, and...

    Guitar Players

    Saw the great conversation between the drummers on here and thought I'd ask something regarding guitar. I've been playing guitar for about 9 years now. I was in a band in high school, mostly playing punk rock/alternative stuff. Since that ended I've basically been all acoustic playing stuff...

    Cyclone Alley FLOP

    Fanatics, the idea of having a large-scale Cyclone Alley flop in response to Marcus Smarts..ehem..abilities, has been tossed around here for awhile. I don't expect the CAC to go the extra mile and get this thing organized, so I'm doing what I can. With that said, I've created an event on...

    Easiest Class/Elective You Ever Took

    With three semesters to go, and taking care of the majority of my requirements, I've got a few elective credits to throw in there (roughly 12 over the next three semesters to be exact). So what's the easiest class you ever took at Iowa State? Preferably 2-3 credits each.

    Houses Near Campus 2014-2015 School Year

    Hey all, Some friends and I are trying to be proactive and get a house lined up for our senior year (2014-2015 school year). Just kind of curious if there happens to be anyone on here who is moving out after this school year and is looking for someone to pass the house on to so to speak. There...

    Coaching Authorization

    Hey all, couldn't find a thread on this in the past so here goes. This summer I plan to coach high school baseball. A coaching authorization requires four classes (which I'm currently taking through Iowa Central). I've completed three of them and am beginning the final class, so barring any...

    Living Arrangements

    Well we're less than a month away from school. For those of us heading to (or back to) Ames this fall, where's everybody living? I'll be at the grove. Anybody else lived there this past year? I'm hoping how nice it is will outweigh how poorly it seems to be managed. I haven't lived there yet...

    DirecTV/Viacom

    Anybody else seeing this big issue between directv and Viacom? I can't link as I'm on mobile. But due to some price hikes directv may take comedy central, spike, and 24 other channels off the air. By tonight.. Anyone know what's going on or if they're going to settle this thing?

    Top 25 College FB Games of 2011

    I couldn't find this on the forum so I assume it hasn't been brought up yet. ESPNU is doing a top 25 games of 2011 countdown over the next week or so. In trying to find the full list of games I couldn't find anything, but I did find an Alabama site explaining when their games would be replayed...
