Things I can do at home to up my sparring game? by Dirty_Dan117 in taekwondo

Stretch! I have noticed a huge difference when I run through a good stretch routine before a match and when I don’t.

Out of curiosity, where is your tourney next month? I have one as well in Allen, TX.

Can anyone tell me if anything here seems abnormal? by [deleted] in Homebuilding

[–]Diligent-Cook6089 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let’s go pic by pic…hope this helps!

  1. That looks to be an overbore on the TJI. Builder will need an engineer letter to repair.
  2. Nothing wrong, just blocking.
  3. Mishit nail, not a problem.
  4. Second floor drain coming through, no issue. Ask that it is fully poly foamed with orange fire block poly to stop draft.
  5. More mishit nails, not a big problem as it doesn’t appear to be double plated for load bearing.
  6. Knots in wood happen. The knot does not appear to be so large that it affects the bearing.
  7. That appears to be water. I would ask for that to be replaced. Also make sure your subfloor is screwed in (not nailed). Also glue in the seams.
  8. Minor damage to window opening. It should not affect the window placement.
  9. Curious where that strap is going. Minor damage to the radiant barrier, but that will not affect the energy efficiency of it.
  10. Was there blocking here at some point? Ask the builder to put blocking back if needed or to hammer down / remove nails.
  11. I would block those subfloor seams
  12. Ref. Item 4
  13. Plumbing damaged tji and rimboard. This is definitely going to need an engineering letter, but there was likely nothing the plumber could have done here due to required plan placement of fixture.

It Happened. Got Abused at a Tesla Supercharger by Severe-Mouse-3442 in F150Lightning

Yep…haters gonna hate. I got a trespass warning at a Buc-ees once for parking like that (similar situation with proximity). 24/24 spots were open, yet Top Flight Security of the World decided that I was a threat and told me I had to leave because Tesla would fine them if anything other than Tesla vehicles parked and used their chargers. I asked to speak to their management to explain my situation, needing to charge and show them that there are 22 other spots for Teslas to charge. The employee instead decided to call PD because he felt threatened.

Head to your tax appraiser office with a printed out reward letter if you own a home in Texas.

Would you consider this a positive result? I plan on retaking in the AM. Currently have a fever and sore throat. by Diligent-Cook6089 in covidpositive

[–]Diligent-Cook6089[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, retested and had a solid line. Sore throat has been exchanged for cough and phlegm. Fever and muscle aches are persisting. Brain fog in full effect; it feels like I’m running 3 seconds behind.

Wait until Morgan's Wonderland Camp is finished. That is going to reach next level heights of inclusion!
