How to get from Dayton, OH to Athens, OH (college kids)? Question: Next year, I will be attending the University of Dayton, and will not be allowed to have a car on campus my first year. My boyfriend and three of my best friends will be attending Ohio University in Athens, OH. I am wondering if there is any form of transportation to Athens from Dayton (bus system?) Answer: I live in Dayton and I tried to get to Athens this year for HallOUween. I ended up needing my friend to take me to the greyhound station in dayton then I rode that to columbus where a friend drove me. If you can get a friend or greyhound to Cincinnati then you should take the Gobus to athens, assuming it doesn't interfere with classes or such |

Southeast OHIO: Anyone have an extra car/truck/suv that they'll trade for home improvements? Question: On the same day that I was laid off my job as an Art Director my wife was in a bad accident & our Jeep was totalled. Insurance paid off the Jeep but left us with only one car. My wife, thankfully, fully recovered after a month. She uses our only vehicle to get to her rural job. We need another vehicle. I have 22 years experience as a maintenance man/handyman. I do expert painting, drywall, plumbing, carpentry & electrical work. You buy the materials and I'll do the work, labor free for that extra vehicle you have just sitting around your yard. This is not an ad, I am looking to buy a vehicle & to pay for it with my labor. We can work something out if you live in Perry, Athens, Hocking, Morgan or Muskingum Counties, or possibly other near by counties. Even if it's just a possibility please click on my crime dog pic & it'll enable you to e-mail me. I have a clean record with great referances. If you have an extra vehicle around it could be a real win-win for both of us. Thank you! Answer: I wish I did. |

How do I get from the airport in Columbus, OH to Athens, OH? Question: Athens is really big on Halloween and my best friend is a student at Ohio University. I live in Pennsylvania and she wants me to visit her at the end of October for the Halloween block party. I can get a plane ticket to the nearest airport (in Columbus) but I don't drive so I can't rent a car to drive and I don't want to pay a lot of money for a two hour cab ride to Athens. She is willing to pick me up, but I want to try and save her the long drive. Is there a bus I can take? What are my options? Thanks in advance! Answer: There are private shuttle services between Athens and Port Columbus airport. The cost is $115-$150. |

So Atheists: Does this long list of epic fails by your VP show your nemesis Sarah Palin to be genius Epic Win? Question: -- On July 16, 2009, Biden gave a blunt summation of the administration's approach to stimulus spending. "People, when I say that, look at me and say, 'What are you talking about, Joe? You're telling me we have to go spend money to keep from going bankrupt?" he said at a stop in Virginia. "The answer is yes." -- On July 5, 2009, in an interview with ABC's "This Week," Biden conceded that the White House team "misread how bad the economy was." His confession came as unemployment hit 9.5 percent, despite the administration's insistence that it would hold to 8 percent with the stimulus plan. -- On April 30, 2009, Biden gave advice on dealing with swine flu that seemed to contradict President Obama's warning not to panic. Speaking on NBC's "Today," Biden, a longtime Amtrak rider who has commuted for decades daily from Delaware to Washington, D.C., said he wouldn't advise family necessarily against going to Mexico, the source of the H1N1 outbreak, but he wouldn't tell them to get into any small area like a subway car, automobile, classroom or airplane. "I would tell members of my family, and I have, I wouldn't go anywhere in confined places right now," Biden said. "It's not that its going to Mexico, it's that you are in a confined aircraft when one person sneezes, it goes everywhere through the aircraft. That's me." -- On March 13, 2009, Biden addressed a former Senate colleague by saying, "An hour late, oh give me a f----ing break," after he arrived on Amtrak at Union Station in Washington, D.C. The vice president's expletive was caught on a live microphone. -- During a Feb. 25, 2009, interview on CBS' "Early Show," Biden encouraged viewers to visit a government-run Web site that tracks stimulus spending. When asked for the site's web address, Biden could not remember the site's "number." "You know, I'm embarrassed. Do you know the Web site number?" he asked an aide standing out of view. "I should have it in front of me and I don't. I'm actually embarrassed." -- At a Jan. 30, 2009, swearing-in ceremony of senior White House staff, Biden mocked Chief Justice John Roberts for his presidential oath blunder on Inauguration Day. "Am I doing this again?" Biden said, after Obama asked him to administer the oath. When Biden was told the swearing-in was for senior staff -- and not cabinet members -- the vice president quipped, "My memory is not as good as Justice Roberts," prompting a stern nudge from Obama. -- On Inauguration Day, Jan. 20 2009, Biden misspoke when he told a cheering crowd of supporters, "Jill and I had the great honor of standing on that stage, looking across at one of the great justices, Justice Stewart." Justice John Paul Stevens -- not Stewart -- swore Biden in as vice president. -- When criticizing former GOP nominee John McCain in Athens, Ohio, on Oct. 15, 2008, Biden said, "Look, John's last-minute economic plan does nothing to tackle the number-one job facing the middle class, and it happens to be, as Barack says, a three-letter word: jobs. J-O-B-S, jobs." -- In a Sept. 22, 2008, CBS interview, Biden misspoke when he said Franklin D. Roosevelt was president when the stock market crashed in 1929. "When the stock market crashed, Franklin D. Roosevelt got on the television and didn't just talk about the, you know, the princes of greed. He said, 'Look, here's what happened," he said. Herbert Hoover -- not Roosevelt -- was president in 1929, and television had not yet been invented in 1929. -- During a Sept. 12, 2008, speech in Columbia, Mo., Biden called for Missouri State Sen. Chuck Graham, who is wheelchair-bound, to "stand up." "Oh, God love ya," Biden said, after realizing his mistake. "What am I talking about?" -- At a Sept. 10, 2008, town hall meeting in Nashua, N.H., Biden said, "Hillary Clinton is as qualified or more qualified than I am to be vice president of the United States of America. Quite frankly, it might have been a better pick than me." -- Biden mistakenly referred to Alaska governor Sarah Palin as the "lieutenant governor" of her state during a town hall meeting on Sept. 4, 2008 at George Mason University in Manassas, Va. "I heard a very, by the way I mean this sincerely, a very strong and a very good political speech from a lieutenant governor of Alaska who I think is going to be very formidable, very formidable not only in the campaign but in the debate," Biden said. -- Biden said he was running for president -- not vice president -- during a Sept. 1, 2008, roundtable discussion in Scranton, Pa. "Today is the moment for me as a United States senator running for president - During his first campaign rally with Obama as his vice presidential running mate on Aug. 23, 2008, Biden introduced Obama by saying, "A man I'm proud to call my friend. A man who will be the next President of the United States -- Barack America!" -- On Jan. 31, 2007 -- the day Biden announced his presidential bid -- the Delaware Senator was roundly criticized for calling Obama "the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy. I mean, that's a storybook, man." Answer: No, but I refer to an American "hero". How can we fail to appreciate George Bush when his record speaks for itself? EDUCATION AND EXPERIENCE LAW ENFORCEMENT I was arrested in Kennebunkport, Maine, in 1976 for driving while intoxicated. I pled guilty, paid a fine, and had my driver's license suspended for 30 days. My Texas driving record has been "lost" and is not available. MILITARY I joined the Texas Air National Guard and went AWOL. I refused to take a drug test or answer any questions about my drug use. By joining the Texas Air National Guard, I was able to avoid combat duty in Vietnam. COLLEGE I graduated from Yale University with a low-C average. I was a cheerleader. PAST WORK EXPERIENCE I ran for U.S. Congress and lost. I began my career in the oil business in Midland, Texas, in 1975. I bought an oil company, but couldn't find any oil in Texas. The company went bankrupt right after I sold my stock. I bought the Texas Rangers baseball team in a sweetheart deal that took land using taxpayer money. With the help of my father and our friends in the oil industry, including Enron CEO Ken Lay, I was elected governor of Texas. ACCOMPLISHMENTS AS GOVERNOR OF TEXAS I changed Texas pollution laws to favor power and oil companies, making Texas the most polluted state in the Union. During my tenure, Houston replaced Los Angeles as the most smog-ridden city in America. I cut taxes and bankrupted the Texas treasury to the tune of billions in borrowed money. I set the record for the most executions by any governor in American history. With help from my Governor-of-Florida-brother, and my father's appointments to the Supreme Court I became President after losing by over 500,000 votes. ACCOMPLISHMENTS AS PRESIDENT I'm the first U.S. President in history to enter office with a criminal record. I invaded and occupied two countries at a continuing cost of over a billion dollars per week. I spent a U.S. surplus and effectively bankrupted the U.S. Treasury. I shattered the record for the largest annual deficit in U.S. history. I set an economic record for most private bankruptcies filed in any 12-month period. I set the all-time record for most foreclosures in a 12-month period. I set the all-time record for the biggest drop in the history of the U.S. stock market. In my first year in office, over 2 million Americans lost their jobs and that trend continues every month. I'm proud that the members of my cabinet are the richest of any administration in U.S. history. My "poorest millionaire," Condoleeza Rice, had a Chevron oil tanker named after her. I set the record for most campaign fund-raising trips by a U.S. President. I am the all-time U.S. and world record-holder for receiving the most corporate campaign donations. My largest lifetime campaign contributor, and one of my best friends, Kenneth Lay, presided over the largest corporate bankruptcy fraud (Enron) in U.S. History. My political party used Enron private jets and corporate attorneys to assure my success with the U.S. Supreme Court during my election decision. I've protected my friends at Enron and Halliburton against investigation or prosecution. More time and money was spent investigating the Monica Lewinsky affair than has been spent investigating one of the biggest corporate rip-offs in U.S. history. I presided over the biggest energy crisis in history, refusing intervention when corruption involving the oil industry was revealed. I presided over the highest gasoline prices in U.S. history. I changed U.S. policy to allow convicted criminals to be awarded government contracts. I appointed more convicted criminals to administration than any President in U.S. history. I created the Ministry of Homeland Security, the largest bureaucracy in the history of the United States government. I've broken more international treaties than any U.S. President. I am the first President in U.S. history to have the United Nations remove the U.S. from the Human Rights Commission I withdrew the U.S. from the World Court of Law. I refused to allow inspectors access to U.S. "prisoner of war" detainees and thereby refused to abide by the Geneva Convention. I'm the first President in history to refuse U.N. election inspectors (during the 2002 U.S. election). I set the record for fewest numbers of press conferences of any President since the advent of television. I set an all-time record for most vacation days in any one-year period. After taking off the entire month of August, I presided over the worst security failure in my nation's history. I garnered unprecedented sympathy for the U.S. after the World Trade Center attacks, and less than a year later made the U.S the most hated country in the world, possibly the largest failure of diplomacy in world history. |

I'm going to college this fall, but I'm afraid and still can't believe it. How is life in the University? Question: I was admitted as a transfer by one of my top choices, which is Ohio University (Athens) and... I still can't believe it! I'm like, in negation or something, and it prevents me to be happy :/ When I applied, I was so convinced I wanted to go, I was very exited to study there because my current college doesn't have art history, which is what I thought I wanted to study, and I still do, but... I also now want to continue taking the prerequisite courses for pharmacy (I was a biology major here) and study pharmacy after (which I consider to give me chances of a secure job, more than art history)... I live outside of the US, and in my current college I didn't leave home because it's only like 40 min away from my house and where I live no college has dorms; just apartments that students can rent if they live too far. I am very afraid to leave because I have never been on an airplane in my whole life and I have never been away from home. Ever. And I still can't feel the reality that I was indeed accepted and I can go to one of those dream-like USA colleges that are sooo big and you can live there and all.. The fact that has me more scared is that I'm very shy, and I don't have a liscence and I've never used buses or any public transportation, so I don't know how I'm going to get around :/ Here I usually get around in my sister's car with her driving or my mom or friends, but I rarely ever drive, since I don't have a liscence... Even if I get a drivers liscence here, I will have to get one in Ohio, right? And then get a used car? I have no idea what to do about that... Maybe I can learn to use the public transportation there and just use public transportation while I study or while I get used to it. Also, the other thing that has me scared is the bathrooms! Do you share the bathroom in the dorms? Can somebody give me an insight of how college life is like? And how is Ohio? I've never even been there, I'm going to go there to see it this early summer with my mom, though. I'm afraid, but I can't let the opportunity to study in the US to pass me by, when in here I just have to study what is available, and in there I can study something I like... (srry for the long details..) Answer: University life is great.. I think for me it is the freedom and the meeting of many new people. Usually a university holds around 3000-4000 students so you will never get tired of meeting new friends,also there are jobs you can get on campus that are fun while they help build up your experience as a worker they help you earn extra cash on the side...Yes sometimes there are private bathrooms in which 2 rooms share bathroom then there are co-ed showers....If you get your license where your at now only thing you will have to do is take your license to the other state and they will transfer them without you taking the test again.,Public Transportation/Buses OKay I took them you can save up and buy a car |

How well do AM radio waves travel? Question: So I go to school at Ohio University (Athens, OH) but I am originally from South Jersey. While I was heading out one night I flipped on my car radio and switched it to AM to search to see if the Final Four was being broadcast. To my surprise I heard the Phillies game being broadcast by their local announcers (Wheeler, Andersen, Franzke, Mathews, and McCarthy). I had left the AM side on 1210AM, which is a Philadelphia talk radio station that broadcasts all of the Phillies games. It came in crystal clear. I tried to scan the AM stations to see if the radio would stop at 1210AM again. It didn't. However, when i hit the preset button for the station it came in clear again. Now Athens is roughly 400 miles from Philly, this shouldn't happen. Two days later I tried it again, and the station came in clear again! Driving around town, it came in clear except for one small stretch of road on campus (No trees, nothing unusual about this stretch of road). I was wondering if anyone could explain why this is happening? I drive a 2005 Ford Focus hatchback. The radio is the stock radio that came with the car. No other Philly radio stations come in except 1210AM. Is it scientifically possible for an AM radio wave to travel this far without any interference? Athens does sit at a pretty high elevation (719 ft), but I don't know if that would affect the radio waves. Thanks for the help. Answer: Medium-wave and short-wave radio signals act differently during daytime and nighttime. During the day, AM signals travel by groundwave, diffracting around the curve of the earth over a distance up to a few hundred miles from the signal transmitter. However, after sunset, changes in the ionosphere cause AM signals to travel by skywave, enabling AM radio stations to be heard much farther from their point of origin than is normal during the day. This phenomenon can be easily observed by scanning an AM radio dial at night. As a result, many broadcast stations are required as a condition of license to reduce their broadcasting power significantly (or use directional antennas) after sunset, or even to suspend broadcasting entirely during nighttime hours. I've also noticed that on certain nights I can receive stations from even further away than usual. I'm not sure if it is due to cloud cover, fewer sunspots, or what, but on such nights I've listened clearly to stations almost 1000 miles away. If you always receive your station at night, then you are lucky enough to be in the path of their directional beam. |
