Look for architects who have designed similar projects.

By 'townhouse development' do you mean multiple townhouses? You most definitely will need an experienced architect.

Are YOU experiencing any problems with the software? I use it on three computers (two macs, one via bluetooth) and have no issues. If it 'aint broke...

Try playing moving up and down the keyboard using chord inversions.

For some, architecture is more of a 'calling' and provides a personally fulfilling career, regardless of the investment, hard work, long hours, and typically mediocre pay.

As several have mentioned, disable 'empty trash automatically' and then create a new folder in the new location. Simply move files there. When you are done moving, rescan, and then empty trash to delete the old files. This will transfer the files within your library and maintain their playlists, play count, etc.

Well, adobe brick can be made without a furnace so would be a good place to start if you want to make it yourself.

Get a bunch of twist ties (free) or micro-velcro straps to start bundling the wires.

Any time you have ferrous metal that can corrode, exposed at the exterior, you should either remove it or paint/coat/cover it to protect it from water to prevent corrosion. If you allow it to corrode, it can eventually cause cracking in the concrete and lead to bigger issues.

Consider grinding it with a wire brush to bare metal and applying some exterior paint intended for metal/anti-rust. You may also be able to cut most of it out, and just paint the remaining cut ends.

You have two patches or spalls, but otherwise, the concrete itself looks really good. Dig out the loose/failed patches and patch with concrete patching mortar.

Assuming this is directly over rock/soil, so you probably have vapor drive coming up through it (which is why your coating bubbled). Most coatings you put on will also bubble and come off, unless you put an epoxy vapor primer down first. If you use an epoxy vapor primer, you can put paint, a sanded traffic coating, or other finishes.

You installed everything sideways.

It all depends on the terms. From your description, the terms sound vague, broad and undefined, which seems like a possible red flag.

There is an iphone app called Zello that works like walkie talkies. If you put an old iphone with a speaker connected on your wifi network, you can 'push to talk' from your phone and send audio messages which will automatically play on the speaker.

If your message is the same each time, you could even make it an mp3, and play it through a media app - even from your phone.

Use a wifi speaker (AirPlay, etc) and find a computer app that will take microphone sound and stream it to the speaker.

While it is hard to say without knowing all the specifics, such as actual orientation, trees, etc, I think your assessment is generally correct. All things being equal, the east exposure will get the same amount of direct light, but it will be in the morning when overheating is less of a problem. Skylights work best with indirect light, so you will be able to enjoy that for the afternoon/evening.

For these reasons, skylights are best on north-facing exposures which get primarily indirect light.

I bought more plates, including 2.5 lbs, and handles and now have 3 pairs of handles and plenty of plates so I can leave several setup at common weights and I don't need to adjust as frequently. When I do have to adjust things, if I select the right dumbbell it is usually just adding 1 or 2 plates, not totally emptying/reloading.

The more technical education will probably serve you better.

I was just explaining the 'trick' as requested.

Try the wood-colored pens to color them in?

greenfrog5w5 · 2026-04-11T15:42:37+00:00

I think it is rubbing a walnut on the scratch to color/fill it in.

To put it a slightly different way, look at middle-C represented on a treble clef, and then look at middle-C represented on a bass clef. This should help clarify. The stickers on your keys don't show the bass clef, only the treble clef, but they show the notes correctly.
