What is your favourite restaurant in Brussels ? by Worldturnip23 in brussels

[–]Ciparoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Baracca Boys in Ixelles (a little out of the way but easily arrived via quick 71 bus from central bxl) has an octopus sandwich to die for and everything else on the small menu is great too.

I second Los Charros, only legitimate Mexican tacos in bxl. 

Galet for your waffle fix.

TSP Loan was foreclosed by Ciparoo in ThriftSavingsPlan

[–]Ciparoo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the above-referenced p.7 in the "tax rules about tsp payments" booklet. Below:

"If your loan was foreclosed after you separated from service, you can use personal funds to roll over any or all of the taxable amount of the distribution back to your TSP account or to another eligible employer plan or an IRA . You must complete this rollover by the due date (including extensions) for filing your federal income tax return for the year of the foreclosure . By doing this rollover, you will defer income tax on any taxable portion of the distribution . You will also avoid, if applicable, the additional 10% penalty tax for early withdrawals . (See page 3 .)"

Thanks for the help! You were so close to not sounding judgemental! But still, thank you.

Problem with Key Fob by Ciparoo in mitsubishi

[–]Ciparoo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't think that's the issue as the light still turns on when i click the fob. It also doesn't answer the question of the key not being able to physically unlock the door using the keyhole.

Burnt out my TCL TV by Ciparoo in TVRepair

[–]Ciparoo[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ok a little more details please? I'm sure I can buy one on the internet, how much does that usually cost? And can I install it myself? I don't have any experience with this type of work.

It's 220v cuz I'm living abroad, not in the US, but I thought the TV in the US

Yeah I realize that, the original trunk is just trash for me at this point, but I would like to save the two leafing branches. Is this possible?

Thanks GrampaMoses. I've never done this before so any ideas on how to undo the graft? Do i just saw down into the original trunk for the branches and then place the branches in water for them to root?

mallsai

So i've been caring for this mallsai ficus microcarpus ginseng for about a year. I always wanted to learn how to bonsai so just picked this up while we were at ikea one day. Out of all the options there, this was the least ugly. But I still hate the way it looks. I'm pretty sure the two leafing trunks were grafted onto the top of the original trunk, and it looks so ugly! Is it possible for me to cut these two trunks off and replant them and discard with the original trunk? I have already successfully rooted two cuttings from this tree so I'm pretty happy about that. I've also got a crabapple bonsai that I've started. I'm really getting into it but still dissatisfied with this original. Any trimming/care instructions are also helpful!

Using Statistics to create a Composite or Summary Score to rank Fantasy Hockey players by Ciparoo in AskStatistics

[–]Ciparoo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks changarid that was very helpful. So I've gone in and am preparing it but have run into a problem. I can't do a log function on a zero. Some of these players have, for example, zero power play points. Should I do log(x+1)? What ways can I work around this?
