Does anyone know how to block a user when a user role expires in Drupal 6? | I am using the Role Expire module to automatically expire a role based after a period of time. I want to create a way to block a user after that role expires. Does anyone know of a way to do this with rules or maybe programmatically?
Thanks in advance! | drupal |
Looking for a possible roomate! | Heelloo, I'm xJaneenx, or, in the real world, Ginae.
I am a 20 year old female (21 in two weeks)
I go to Tacoma Community College for Computer Programming/ Computer Engineering, soon I will be transferring to UWT, maybe.
I do not have a job, only student loans, financial aid, and whatever my family floats at me. I've never had trouble paying rent.
I am easy going, clean, and besides just looking for a place to live, I'm also looking for a friend (Does that scream desperate?)
Someone I can chill with, go to the bar with, have a few drinks, a few laughs, play video games with, etc.
That'd be cool.
So, if you're looking for someone to help out with the rent. Message me!
P.S. I'm a vegetarian, but in no way will I push that onto you. Bacon is delicious, I get it, no biggie.
I smoke, but I will not smoke in the house/apt or near the house/apt if that is what you wish. | Tacoma |

27 [M4F] Anywhere - Just found out my wife cheated on me for a whole year and need some pick-me-ups | To make an incredibly painful story short, my wife confessed to having an intimate and emotional affair with another man for a whole year behind my back. Our marriage was not perfect, but had honestly been going very well in its entirety. Even after admitting to the affair she said I was the perfect husband and that she wanted me back. The only reason she cheated was that it was a guy that she spent too much time with and became attached to but "I am better in every conceivable way". Obviously I am pretty distraught and not sure what my choice is going to be, but I figured I would put it to you all to see who had the best idea to cheer me up.
EDIT: Thanks for all of the well wishes. They come at a time in my life where I needed them most.
UPDATE: Wife is even more confused about what she wants. Suggested an open relationship (for just me) or to just screw around, although I am not sure that will help the reconciliation plans. But she was pretty adamant about it. Would it be nuts for me to do something like that (more harm than good, that is)? If it truly makes her feel better, I supposed I am not entirely opposed. I just worry that she is trying something to push me away. God damn women, why you so confuse!? | r4r |
Should I tell my son's grandparents that he exists? | I will try to make this as short as possible. And I hope that I'm posting in the right spot... It's my first time. I apologize.
I'm a single mom to a two year old tot. My son's father has seen our child twice, for a total of about twenty minutes combined. He hasn't told his parents about our son. I've struggled and stayed up with the thought of whether I should take it upon myself to tell them. I understand (to a degree) and accept that my son's father doesn't want to be involved (other than paying child support for about a year). I don't want him involved if he doesn't want to be. I don't want to force him. We have a custody agreement and he's never bothered using it. However, I would like to give his parents the opportunity to be involved if they wish to be, as much as they could be since they have moved to another state.
What keeps me from telling them is: His mom didn't like me. I honestly don't know why. We were together for five years, and she just never liked me from day one. (His dad never had a problem with me however, or at least never made it known that he did.) Also, I don't know if this would piss off my son's father if I told them. And I'm honestly scared as to what could happen if I did tell them and pissed the father off. Last, but not least, the fear of rejection.
What makes me think it may be ok to tell them: My son's father has two other kids: one older and one younger that the grandparents are involved with. Two other mothers. I picked a winner, I know. Anyway, I know for a fact that the grandparents were great with the oldest son.
Part of me feels that it is the father's responsibility to say something, not mine. Part of me feels that my son does not deserve to be some "dark, dirty secret." I want my son to have a family. I want him to have as much support as possible. I want him to have an opportunity to know where he comes from. But, selfishly, I'm scared.
Sorry for rambling, but I'd like, possibly need, unbiased opinions. :\
TL;DR: I want the best for my son, but I don't know what that is. | Parenting |

Love of trees cost me my job today (random vent session) | Hey. So this is my first every reddit posting thing and I just needed to vent a bit. Two weeks ago I started a new job. I work in the animal medical field and have never ever had to take a drug test. Ever. I love my job and would never go to work under the influence so no boss ever knew or cared what I did in my off time. Imagine my surprise when I'm told I need to take a urine test on my second day. I decided to come clean with my office manager who assured me that it would be fine, that she was glad that I was honest, and that she would do her best to get the practice owner on board with maybe retesting me once a month or randomly or something once I had 6 weeks to clear out my system. Flash forward to today. The results are in and I tested positive for marijuana metabolites. Surprise surprise. But instead of being given the chance to change for them (which makes me sad but I was willing to do it) I get canned on the spot. Apparently it's too much of a liability. So I could go home and drink myself stupid every night and come to work hungover but if I smoke a joint to relax and give me some fibromyalgia relief then I get fired. Cool. And the best part is that the two weeks I was there I worked my ass off and got told by pretty much everyone there how awesome I was to work with and how happy they were to have me.
Thanks to anyone who read this. It's nice to be able to vent to some like minded people. My ent is being so supportive and I think a tiny little bit of him is happy to have his smoking buddy back since I stopped smoking the day I took the test. No other vet clinics around test (I know people that work at other places) so I'll be fine getting another job. It's just a bummer.
TL&DR: I'm a model employee and got fired because of a positive drug test anyway :/ | entwives |
which green tea supp is best for cutting? Source naturals vs. NOW Foods (also stack advice?) |
I can't make heads or tails of which to order. If I used NOW, I think I'd take 2 caps, but with Source Naturals I may take 3 (since 2 = 350mg and I read on examine it should be 400-500mg?). Advice on dosage would be appreciated too!
I'm also taking:
* 2g of L-Carnitine L-Tartrate
* 10,000 UI of D3
* 3g of melatonin at night
* 5g creatine monohydrate
* ~50g protein (ON Gold Standard 100% Whey) post workout
* 2 scoops ON Platinum Pre (4g L-Citrulline; 3.2g Beta-Al; 500 mg DMAE; 500mg Grape Seed/Red Wine Grape Extra, Bioflavonoids; 400 mg caffeine; 250 mg Capiscum Extract) pre workout
I'm 5'8.5, 155lbs, ~8% BF just trying to push it a bit. I lift three times a week and play basketball a few times a week too.
I'm pretty gunshy about going for an EC stack since I have a history of heart disease/stroke/etc in my family, but I'd like to know what I might add to help me cut safely. | Supplements |
Advice for improving my cardiovascular strength/endurance in preparation for Spring Track? | Hi, I'm 17 years old and want to enter Varsity Track at my High School this Spring. As a part of the 35 pounds I've lost over the past year Jogging or walking was the majority of my exercise. However, I know I'm not in the condition I need (nor would like) to be in in order to be competitive with other kids at my school.
Currently, I've been running 2 miles every day on my treadmill (plan to run outside when its warmer), trying to increase my pace a bit every day. I figured I'd check in here to see if anyone would have advice on the optimal training regimen/techniques to kick me into the best possible shape in 30-40 days. All advice is appreciated! | running |
Is it possible to run the beginner adventure with 6 players? | My beginner's box came in yesterday and I was wondering if it is possible to play the starter adventure with 6 players (including the downloadable characters on the FFG's website). I've only had time to skim the adventurebook, but i am worried the starter adventure will be way too easy if played with more than 4. I was wondering if there were people who have ran this with 4+ players and how they scaled the encounters. We come from a DnD(4e) background and I think this will be a great way to get players up to speed on the ruleset. Any tips are welcome! | swrpg |

What is the most awkward situation you've ever been in? | Due to the new AskReddit rule I must post my response on the comments. Mine is a story that has probably happened before but I don't give a dick. It was in 3rd grade and I went up to my teacher to ask her a question. I don't remember the question but when she answered it I turned around and said "Thanks mom". From that day on I was known as "The Boy Who Cried Mommy". Even now that I'm in high school people still call me that once in a while. | AskReddit |

Help getting confidence back after a spill? | So almost a month ago, ironically, I was on my way to my dealership to get my tank cover looked at (the fuel cell expanded and cracked the tank sticker on one side) and in the middle of my turn to get onto the feeder, my bike lowsides, I tumble on the pavement, and my bike slides away about 15 feet ahead of me into the grass. (I think a lady must have bumped me or something mid turn because she stopped for two seconds, saw that I was still moving then sped away like the devil was on her heels) and luckily the truck behind her blocks the road a bit so I can get up without fear of being run over. The slide wasn't bad, maybe fell off going 20-25mph, and my right hand grip took the brunt of the damage. Long story short, 3 weeks later I get my bike back (with sweet ass V&H Black Widows pics to come later) but I have noticed my confidence in right hand turns is drastically bad. I get to the lean angle I was at during my spill and I get an "oh shit" feeling and on tight-ish corners I used to take going 55 through, I shit myself going 40 and have to force myself to not get target fixation. Anyone have any tips on how to get confidence back fairly quickly? Or should I just take a nice back road trip with some twisties to condition myself again?
(pics of the aftermath, thankfully it was not all that bad, I was able to ride it to the dealership) | motorcycles |

This subreddit has been a little dead lately... How's everybody's season going? | Mine's pretty great! I had to take a week off because of a nasty cold last week (And I still have a lingering cough...), so I'm a little out of shape and sore and tired, but I just had a really good 7 mile run, so I'll be all good by the big state meets in a month.
About a month ago, I ran my first ever 3000m race in 10:29, which I'm really excited about! But that's about the only race I've done well in so far, our normal dual meet track sucks, so I haven't PR'd in anything yet (unless you count a 2:19 800m leg in the 4x800). I can't wait until some of the upcoming Invitationals where we get to go to really nice tracks. And I'm pumped for the district and state meets!
So tell me, how's your season been? Have you had any PR's? | HSTrack |
Treatment for Bipolar Disorder in NZ - Cost | Does anyone know what the meds cost are to treat this, and how many trips to the doctor it takes before they will actually proscribe this?

Good people of Reddit, even with the separation of church and state why do people still find the need to incorporate religion into politics? | I'm not hating on religion, this is a question I've wanted to ask for a long long time.

Hypothetically, If Violent Video Games were proven to cause Violent Tendencies, what then? | WARNING: DEAD HORSE AHEAD
--------------------------
I'm sure most of us are sick of talking about it. But mostly I see people debate whether or not there is a connection between violent games/media and acts of violence. I don't know if there exists a way to definitively prove/disprove a connection without other variables interfering with a conclusion.
But, for the purpose of discussion, lets pretend a study COULD and DID provide believable and unquestionable proof that people who play violent video games are more likely to commit acts of violence. What then? How would we combat such tendencies? What options would there be to control violent media?

Again, I'm sure you all are tired of this subject. Perhaps this exact question has been discussed here previously, if so I apologize. But I am curious as to what you all think. | truegaming |

What are some common phrases that you use that you feel add variety to everyday conversations? | When someone is explaining anything to me I like to use "I'm picking up what you're putting down." I think it lets them know I'm following along and is better than just nodding along.
Side note. I had an Internship last summer and was bombarded by business phrases. The most common one was "We'll touch base with him/her later." I honestly could not walk from one end of the office to the other without hearing this being used in some way. This got so annoying that I started purposely misusing it and saying stuff like "Will you have time later this afternoon to touch each others bases." Reactions were always golden. | AskReddit |
I want to record simple songs but I don't have a computer, what do you suggest? | Should I save my money and get a computer so I can then have garageband, and other recording software?

How to defend modern tight-ends? | Lately whenever I hear someone discuss one of the league's top tight ends (Gronk, Vernon Davis, etc), they say some variation of the phrase, "He's too big to cover with a defensive back, but too fast to cover with a linebacker."
Is this really true? How do most defenses attack the physical-yet-fast tight ends of today? And also, why haven't we seen a new breed of superdefenders-- one thats big and fast enough to hang with a TE? Is it just that guys with those tools tend to end up on the offensive side of the ball? | nfl |

(the PSU and RAM ar just to give an idea, i'm getting good deals on them in France and the PSU will be the 550W version)
The build will be used for gaming (bf3, planetside 2, Skyrim, LOL, SC etc) and is supposed to be OC ready (with the extra cooling etc).
So my questions are:
* MOBO decent enough?
* The choice of 7950 okay?
* memory, ram is ram right?
* i will also be ordering mostly from NCIX, any thoughts?
As stated in the title i'm in a rather sorry state of urgency; i'm currently in France and have a friend bringing parts over when he gets back from the states which is relatively soon so i have to order ASAP.
Thanks in advance to those who take the time to answer and help out!

Has anyone heard anything about attacks in Mount Vernon on young men leaving the Hippo/Grand Central? | I've heard several reports from friends of young men being attacked after leaving the gay bars in the neighborhood as part of a recent gang pledge/initiation thing.

Wait List For Hats To Be Made! Sign Up Here Please! | Okay, so there's definitely plenty of people interested in receiving a hat!
This post is only for giving me your requests and it will be how I organize my master list. There are a few things I need to know from you before I can even start:
* **Head Size**- You can easily take a tape measure and starting at the middle of your forehead, follow the tape measure to the base of your neck and back around to meet the beginning at the middle of your forehead. This will be where it will sit on your head. For an example, my head is *22 inches*, but don't be too worried about this part because yarn stretches, and most hats will fit comfortably with a +- 2 inches of leeway. Just make sure it isn't tight!
* **Color Scheme!**- Tell me what color(s) you would like! You can also specify things like, stripes, solids, slouchy beanies. In my other post I shared a couple of pictures of some of my yarn I have on hand, but as a general rule I probably have at least one of every color. My supplies will probably run out, but people give me yarn on a semi-regular basis so my stock will change a bit as I continue using it. If I don't have the color you request, I will probably get some at some point typically ever few weeks. If you want to make a special request for something more difficult than a beanie this would be also where you could do it, but for those I might have to work out some kind of trade since it might require specific supplies I don't have on hand.
* **Address**- Don't post it here, obviously, and please don't flood my inbox (it was scary enough the first time, and I'm pretty sure I've missed a few messages, Sorry!). I will have listed below the top five people I will be making hats for, if your name is on that list, then I will be making your hat probably during the weekend and shipping them Mondays/Wednesday, so I would need your address before then. I will PM you when it is done, and provide pics for proof if you like so that I can get your address to then send it to you.
Phew... I think that's all. Please limit your posts to the information requested, if you want to talk about hats and stuff besides that, you can do it on the other post as I want this one to be just for requests.
Here is the list of people's hats I will be working on, via the order of posting, unless specification is given that they can wait:
* 1. princessofcalamity
* 2. jojewels92
* 3. shysilverskies
* 4. allicinlover
* 5. tiffany815
And it occurred to me that if you live outside of the U.S. then it might be a bit trickier, I know one person was willing to paypal the shipping costs so obviously it could be worked out, but please tell me if you want one but live in a different country. | RandomActsOfPolish |

Can we stop putting "THE NEW 52!" on the covers of every New 52 comic? | We're a little over a year into this, I don't think it's really necessary to keep slapping that on the cover of every comic, it just feels like clutter and makes the cover too busy. Sometimes you just need to let it breath.
I dunno, maybe I'm wrong. What do you guys think?

What is Sasuke going to do now? | I'm personally betting that Sasuke is going to have Orochimaru revive his parents to get his final answers regarding the massacre, and that he's going to have a final look at the Uchiha tablet using his EMS. Also, I think he's going to Amaterasu everything in sight once he leaves.
It's interesting how thoroughly rebuilt Konoha has been. Judging from those trees on the main road, Yamato has surely been very, very busy with reconstruction. As for how two S-rank ninja walked into Konoha without opposition....how? Is the city abandoned? Or are the civilians all asleep, and Sasuke instantly murdered the gate guard and recon folks? I know that almost every shinobi is now on the front lines fighting with Naruto, but I can't believe Tsunade would have left the city so understaffed that there aren't even chuunin gate guards | Naruto |
Games crash on start-up in Windows 7. | Here's the deal: I have an HP Compaq nx7010. I got it sometime last year after my better, more functional laptop crapped out. The Compaq used to run on XP, up until about a month ago when I had to install Windows 7 to fix a few bugs.
When the Compaq had XP, I was able to run programs and games flawlessly. I played Star Wars: KOTOR and Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind without fail, and didn't have any bugs or issues running them.
Now, after installing Windows 7, both of those games don't work. I can install them fine, but when I start the programs, they immediately crash. Troubleshooting the games themselves is no help, and I've tried tinkering with the game settings and "fixes" that are supposed to help out, to no avail.
Any idea what this could be? Is there an issue that people have experienced when upgrading from XP to Windows 7? I'm gonna x-post this over at r/asktechnology (and maybe r/gaming) as well, just to try and figure this out. Thanks in advance! | techsupport |
Three men in prison are about to be executed. | There are three men standing in a prison yard, about to be executed for their crimes. They are offered a choice in execution style; beheading via guillotine, death by firing squad or an injection of HIV.
The first man chooses beheading. He's led to the guillotine by the guards, positioned, and executed. Blood sprays everywhere and his head goes rolling across the yard.
Horrified by what he's just seen, the second man chooses to be shot. The guards lead him to a wall, six other guards point their weapons at him, and they open fire. The man dies fairly slowly, choking on his own blood.
The third man is totally calm. He says, somewhat smugly, that he'd like to be given the HIV injection.
The guards summon the doctor, who gives the third man his injection. Back in his own cell later, the third man begins laughing quietly to himself. Confused, his bunkmate asks what's so funny.
"Those idiots," the man replies. "I was wearing a condom the whole time!" | Jokes |
Clicker Training Success! I'm Giddy! | I have a 1 year old rescued boxer, Bowser. He came to us with some health problems, and he was finally cleared by the vet to start training classes. He is a busy boy, who needs constant stimulation, or he tends to get into things. We started training 2 weeks ago, and I've taken to carrying some treats and my clicker around the house with me, to work training into our daily routine. Earlier today, I was walking around doing some cleaning, and I notice Bowser doing something he isn't supposed to. So, instead of scolding him, I stick my hand out and say "Bowser, Touch." He runs across the room and touches my hand with his nose. I click and treat. He's happy, I'm happy. Positive reinforcement training WORKS! I'm kind of giddy! | Dogtraining |
Any and all suggestions are welcomed! | I have been a pack a day smoker (Camel Menthol) for 5+ years and now I want to start making the transition to electronic cigs but, I don't know anything about models or liquids.

Presenting My Little Life Challenges! ... for real this time... | A couple of weeks back, I posted the idea of "My Little Life Challenges."]( Although a handful were interested, I didn't get any responses from my first challenge. I was a little let down, however, there was a spark of inspiration. /u/AFineTransform posted a Cracked article on MLSG and challenged people to change their lives. He even mentioned me in [his post. I instantly PMed him and we got to working and came up with a joint project called...
**My Little Life Challenges** <-- TA DA!!!
We have been working really hard and are really excited about what may come of this. For those of you that didn't see the first post: this is a set of small challenges that will help you improve on different aspects of your life. Also, thanks to /u/AFineTransform, we also have long term challenges which you can choose for yourself yourself.
So why am I telling you?
Well, I did post here first and people seemed interested. My hope was to help you guys, so I feel that you should be the first ones to know. Being first has the perk of helping define what this will become! Both of us are open to suggestions and hope that this will become an interactive experience.
So go, read the first challenges, participate, and hopefully, this will help you in some way. This idea was born of MLSP... and I hope to keep you guys involved.
This project is what you will make it. The only thing we can guarantee is that this will be something. We are going to do something and hopefully, it will be great. | MyLittleSupportGroup |
Any thoughts? Portable drive will suddenly not mount | UPDATE: Fixed, sort of. I had a secondary drive installed that was not mounting. That was causing my OS to be unable to move along and recognize the external drive - therefore it was invisible to the machine and truecrypt. Disabling the secondary drive allowed the machine to see the usb drive.
When ever I reboot the machine or try to manually access the drive, I get this error:
Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 13: ntfs_mst_post_read_fixup_warn: magic: 0x43425355 size: 4096 usa_ofs: 271 usa_count: 65535: Invalid argument
Actual VCN (0x80000ff1c2a0100) of index buffer is different from expected VCN (0x0).
Failed to mount '/dev/sdg1': Input/output error
NTFS is either inconsistent, or there is a hardware fault, or it's a
SoftRAID/FakeRAID hardware. In the first case run chkdsk /f on Windows
then reboot into Windows twice. The usage of the /f parameter is very
important! If the device is a SoftRAID/FakeRAID then first activate
it and mount a different device under the /dev/mapper/ directory, (e.g.
/dev/mapper/nvidia_eahaabcc1). Please see the 'dmraid' documentation
for more details.

Not even HR is a safe spot for men | I was recently promoted and have to do HR classes related to the manager role. Today's class was about coaching and counseling. HR speak for "making people do what they're suppose to do and how to formally get them in trouble".
So as the female-led HR rep. was teaching on verbal counseling she was going along until she state:
"Males. *then looked at the three males of the group with a steadfast eye* Never go into a room to counsel a female employee by yourself."
I was a little bit shocked and zoned out on her full explanation of the proper procedure.
I then asked, before she could just move on, "Does that work in the opposite?"
She went on about how there should always be two people in any meeting. But she didn't understand my question. I interrupted and said, "No, my question is, does that work for females with male employees?" She again missed the point completely. And went on.
So remember, even with HR, only men should be warned as only men sexually harass or could be accused of sexual harassment. Thanks, HR...thank you. | MensRights |
Anyone ever run into a "smoke squad"? | don't know what else to call it. Basically about 4-8 guys most of them Assault w/ smoke equipped. they would run into an area shooting smoke every which way and basically knife you or shoot you etc. Very disorienting, but at the end of the game we beat them by over 120 tickets in a 200% game. Very interesting play style, very annoying to play against, but ultimately not very effective. Just wondering if this was common in more competitive servers, as a lot of the guys were lvl 100.
I ended up going support and sweeping through the smoke until I got hit markers on them | ps3bf3 |
Ever since the Rogers crash in Canada, my latency has been off the charts. (x-post r/TechSupport) | First I would like to say that I know this isnt tech support, but no one over there is responding, figured that LoL community might have some insight.
I called tech support, and they said everything should be working, which it wasn't, as I couldn't connect. They told me to reset my router and to restart my modem, which gave me internet access. However, ever since then my latency went from around 90ms to a steady 450ms which makes doing things like streaming and playing games very difficult and it is something I would like to do. My router is the linksys WRT54G ver 6 with upgraded firmware (i figured that might solve the problem). Any ideas on how to lower my latency would be greatly appreciated :) | leagueoflegends |

[Discussion] Favorite gift you have given and why.. | Hey I was just wondering what every ones favorite gift they have given was, and why? (it does not have to be from RAOA just in general) :) | Random_Acts_Of_Amazon |
Say you have a pirate genre mmo where the player controlled character can be either exploring the land, being part of the tripulation of a ship (and the player screen consists of the ship), or being the captain of the ship (the player screen shows the ship navigation). Question continues inside.. | So basically, to make the idea clearer, the player can have one of three states:
1 - Normal. Like in every game, exploring the world
2 - Being in a ship. He is in a ship controlled by other player, he cannot control the ship, but he can move anywhere in the ship
3 - Captaining a ship. He controls a ship that may be transporting other players. He controls the ship, but he doesn't see what's happening inside his ship, he sees the open sea and his ship navigating.
As an extra, say player AAA is captaining the ship. If another ship attacks AAA's ship, he changes from state 3 to state 2, and can engage in fight.
Question is: how would you handle the rendering of the graphics and game controls depending on each situation. I mean in the game client, of course. Would you do something like:
while (gameloop)
{
if (player.status == 'normal')
{
//Render normal world. Keyboard and mouse useful to interact with other players, NPCs, attack NPCs, etc.
}
elseif (player.status == 'tripulation')
{
//Render the ship the player is currently in. Keyboard and mouse useful to interact with other players, NPCs, do ship related tasks, etc.
}
elseif (player.status == 'captaining')
{
//Render the sea, islands, the player ship and the other ships navigating. Keyboard and mouse are useful to navigate the ship
}
Is this a good practice? For example I remember playing a pirate game where this would be the case. You could be exploring the world like any RPG. When you felt like it, you could sail your own ship (and other players could be your tripulation). If you did this, you saw your ship navigating and other ships, and you could attack other ships by clicking, and you would see cannon balls going toward the ship you were attacking. Thing is, if you had a tripulation, you would also see when THEY fired the cannons, as each player controlled one cannon. Of course, you could instead of captaining a ship, join as tripulation, and you could in any given moment take control of a cannon and shot at other ships. The captain of your ship would see the cannon balls you fire in his own "top" view of the sea, and conversely you would see the cannon balls that your captain fired to other ships.

[For Hire] Electronics Engineering & Tech Recent Graduate. Looking for entry level PLC, embedded systems or electronics technician job. | resume
Hello /r/forhire,
My name is Jesus and I recently graduated with a BS in EET. Now that I am out of school, I am looking for a serious job in my field. During school I really enjoyed my PLC and embedded systems classes. I knew that after those classes, that was the field I would like to join.
I was taught and feel like I have an excellent understanding of these skills:
* Relay/Ladder Logic
* C/Assembly
* Electronic & Mechanical Sensors and Signal Processing
* Operational Amplifiers
I am also very familiar with these computer programs used for building circuit simulations or PLC simulations:
* LogixPro 500 (Mimics Allen-Bradley's (Rockwell) RSLogix 500)
* Direct Soft 5
* National Instruments Multisim
* MATLAB
I am looking for an entry level job in the so-cal area, but I do not mind relocating. I can start as soon as possible.
I'll give you any details you request, just send me a PM or drop a comment below.
Edit: I also forgot to throw a picture of my senior project. This is an old picture and was much cleaner looking when done. Unfortunately I lost the SD card that had that picture. If you have any questions about it, feel free to PM me.

Give my boyfriend a blowjob, get him off, get no sex or anything else in return lately. Am I wrong to be upset and find this selfish? | I (29F) have only been dating my current boyfriend (28M) for about 1.5 months. In the beginning he was very concerned with getting me off and we'd usually start with a blowjob as foreplay before he'd grab me to have sex, and then I'd finish him off with the blowjob since he can't cum with condoms on.
Lately though what will happen is I'll start giving him a blowjob (I'm usually the one initiating sex a lot since my drive is higher than his), and he'll ask me to finish him off. I love giving blowjobs, so I'm more than happy to do this. But, after that's done there's no reciprocation of any kind. He's not big on giving orally (which is fine with me since I prefer giving), but he doesn't even try to finger me or get me off in any other way. And, then we don't even have sex. Instead he says he's tired and ready for bed, and that's it. Sometimes he'll apologize we didn't have sex, but I'm starting to doubt now if he even means it.
I can understand this happening sometimes, and I'm more than happy to give him a blowjob without expecting something in return. But, it's getting to the point that he gets off all the time, and I never do. I've tried talking to him about it or stopping mid-blowjob to say he should fuck me, but he says things like "tomorrow" or "next time."
I'm at a loss how to approach this with him or if I'm wrong to think he's being selfish? I don't want to stop giving bjs or use that as a negotiation tool since I honestly do enjoy giving them to him. I just wish he'd at least make an effort to please me after, and it's a shift from how he was initially, which also confuses me.
TL/DR: Lately sex has been me giving my boyfriend a blowjob to completion, and then him ready for bed. No touching, reciprocation, sex, anything to get me off in return. When I ask he says he's tired or apologizes and says we'll have sex tomorrow (rarely true now). Am I wrong to find this selfish? How to approach this w/out stopping blowjobs outright? | sex |
