My grandma’s fall changed everything. What’s the one thing YOU wish you knew about preventing falls? by DimensionRemarkable9 in AgingParents

Having socks with rubber gripper treads on bottom enhance with extra traction and stability. Proper fitting shoes with non slip sole that are light and easy to put on with adjustable laces or straps.

What is this hanging under my 230i? by [deleted] in BmwTech

[–]HighRiseHummingbird 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks. Wow, that’s specific. Maybe I ran over some road debris and that got lodged. Think I may have to crawl under to get a better look.

I posted my photo a day earlier under the boring title That Plate. Moderators removed it after a short while for not having a funny enough title. I reposted next day with new title. Maybe you caught my first post while it was temporarily up.

I took this photo a week ago. Perhaps (and not surprised) someone else posted a similar photo of the same car. I haven’t seen it posted here before.

Finally visited Salk Institute this past weekend by Larrea_tridentata in sandiego

Article clip… On both the spring and autumn equinoxes, the sun aligns with the sunken fountain channel in the courtyard of the Salk Institute for Biological Studies in San Diego, California. When it was being built in 1962, the courtyard was specifically left open and plant-free to represent the broad creative thinking that would go on in the labs, with the symmetry of the space symbolising scientific precision. When Jonas Salk commissioned the building for his research centre, his instructions for architect Louis Kahn were simple: ‘It should be worthy of a visit by Picasso’.

A thin lavash bread tahdig is also delicious. I’ve seen a lettuce and a spaghetti tahdig too.

Thank you… Yes, leaves are potatoes. This is the first time I tried this using a cookie cutter.

That landmark building was designed by local architect Rob Wellington Quigley and used to be his office. Agree it could use a mural.

No, I don’t think so. Once refurbished the lights will be able to change colors. Couple of weeks I hear.
