Help Identifying This Machine

Looks like a milling machine, just wondering if it's complete and worth saving. Seller doesn't even know what to call it. Henry Prentiss was a distributor and didn't make their own machines. W.E.&M. may be Western Electric & manufacturing? Any help appreciated.

Will a metal building roof affect TV/FM reception with roof antenna?

I have a shop building out in the country and I need 20+ ft of height to pull in a distant favorite FM station. I'd also possibly put up a TV antenna, and I already have a cell phone booster that would go up too.

I've been looking at ground based towers but they are kinda pricey and the building is already there. It has a 20 ft. high, peaked, sheet metal roof. I'd put up a tripod to get everything at least 3-5 ft above the roof peak. Just wanted to make sure that the expanse of sheet metal wouldn't interfere with the signal.

“This vehicle makes frequent stops…”

I couldn’t get a pic but I pulled up behind a green stepside Ranger same color as my ‘95 today. Don’t see stepsides much. A small sticker on the tailgate said “Caution. This vehicle makes frequent stops at your mom’s house.”
I laughed hard.

Storm north of Omaha tonight

Shot from NW Lincoln near I-80 and Superior St. Approximately 60 miles as the crow flies. If you zoom in there is a lightning bolt visible at the bottom.

Fine American right here

Saw this at the Conley Walmart. Handicapped spot (poorly parked at that), no handicap hangtag, NO LICENSE plates on either end! The audacity. I hope they got a ticket.

Anyone have a sourdough culture?

Looking to learn how to make sourdough bread. If anyone could share a spoonful I’d be most grateful.

I drive a 2015 Honda Civic 4 cyl non-turbo with a CVT transmission. Bought it from a dealer with 40k on it in 2016-17. Now has 160k on it. I change the oil regularly and have changed the trans fluid once (I hope they did it at 40k at the dealer but I don't know). It looked OK when I changed it (edit: At 120,000 mi).

I do almost all my driving to work in a nearby city and back. 1/2 mile from my driveway to the highway, 35 miles, a little city driving to get to the office.

In the morning when I get on the highway and hit about 60-65 mph, the car will shudder until it gets up to 70. Then it goes away. It's not wheels because it doesn't do it after the car is warmed up, for example if I slow down on the highway and speed back up, it's just not there once the car is warm. And I just got new rubber a few months ago anyway.

It seems to be getting slowly worse over time too. I'm concerned it's the CVT. Or maybe a wheel bearing. It's not the steering wheel shuddering like a wheel out of balance. It's the whole car, you feel it in your seat.

Thoughts?
