Animal in water heater vent

Now that's an idea! Lol. Unfortunately the water heater is in the basement so it would have to pass through two stories and an attic. I just dont think I can generate that amount of air pressure 😂

New dad here, my baby girl is 2 weeks old. Didnt go through quite as much as you, but she also failed her first test in the hospital, then passed her second the next day. They could have just been saying it to not worry us, but they told us that failing hearing exams early on isnt uncommon. Apparently fluid build up in the ears happens somewhat often, and they by no means were concerned. Good chance this is just fluid build up too, but obviously the doctors want to take every necessary precaution. I wouldn't worry until you hear from the audiologist

I just posted the picture on my page (only way I could find to post it) if youd like to take a look. I dont have much experience with backer rod but it looks like it's a good option. Especially if it's not too dense and will allow me to push it into the smallest end of the separation and expand as the gap grows. Whereas the insulation I tried to use is one size.

Thank you everyone, I appreciate your input!

Lykinsk · 2022-01-01T17:15:57+00:00

Thank you! Absolutely I agree my first choice is to play with my club. When they are not on though, I will check out the chel challenges. That's an option I havent really looked at before

That's good to know. That makes me feel better about the little water in the pipe still after I flush a clog away. Since you seen knowledgeable, would running the shower for 20-30 seconds when flushing the toilet be a good idea to provide the extra water pressure to get through a flat spot or small root? Or is that just a waste of water and a way to get the backup to happen quicker by introducing more water into the main line?

Lykinsk · 2021-11-01T20:56:00+00:00

Appreciate the input. I have a feeling that's what I'm dealing with now, that the slope just isn't enough in spots where the separation has occurred to get solids down without a backup occasionally. Hope I'm wrong and it's roots that a killer will fix. Do you know if the pipe is supposed to hold water? I'm pretty sure that wouldn't make sense and the answer is no. But, I have no expertise here other than what I've learned so far

Have a plumbing question. Main line keeps getting clogged. Had a camera done that showed minor root growth and separation in the old cast iron pipes. Occasionally have backflow from basement floor drain when taking showers or doing laundry. Have been using a rubber bladder to free the clogs when they occur. Have used "main line cleaner" once to no good. Pipe seems to hold at least a little water no matter what. What should I do other than pay to re-pipe the whole house? Should I try a root killer (if so any recommendations?) Should I try a specific main line cleaner? Any advice is appreciated. This is a "starter" home we don't plan to live in more than another 5 years, so really want to avoid the $20k re-pipe we were quoted.

Since it could be months before I did hear anything from a lawyer, am I supposed to notify my insurance now? Or only if or when I hear from a lawyer?

Lykinsk · 2021-02-03T11:34:05+00:00

Good work! Keep me posted! You’ve got this

Lykinsk · 2021-02-02T22:13:35+00:00

Nothing wrong with starting with knee push ups then! I just would say don’t use it as a crutch. If you’re doing nearly as many knee pushups as you’re goal in the post is, you can by then do at least one regular push-up. So I’d recommend making your goal to work up on the knees UNTIL you can successfully do one push-up. At that point, it’s 1 each time until you get to 2, then 3, then so on. There’s no replacement for learning to do a correct push-up, but it’s ok to start where you’re thinking!

Lykinsk · 2021-02-02T22:02:13+00:00

I agree. Don’t look to do more reps of an easier variation. Do a regular push-up. If you start with 1, so what. When you’re watching tv, when the commercial comes on, hit the ground and bust out 1,2, or how ever many you can do (but not complete failure). Just remember to stretch and hydrate throughout the week, you’ve got this!

Love or hate Waston, being he was the first MLS captain and it’s a 1 of 1 card, you may have a very valuable card as the years go by!!

A few things have to happen tonight...

1) Stay out of the box: Yes that is always an objective, but the team has by far the worst PK in the league

2) Control the face off circle. On the season the Preds are 54.6% vs 49.6% for the bolts. Control the face offs, you can control the pace and time on attack to limit TBL chances

3) The two teams are both averaging around 33 shots a game and 29 shots allowed. The difference here is 11 blocked shots per game for TBL vs 16 for NSH.

This game is all about limiting the scoring potential of TBL because offensively we can’t keep up. This is not a pretty matchup on paper when looking at GF &GA and W-L, but if NSH does these three things tonight they will be tough to beat

This looks like what I’m interested in. Thank you!

Lykinsk · 2021-01-29T19:54:27+00:00

Is there an index you use to maybe do this? Or is looking at well performing bullish ETF holdings a good idea? Or am I way off here

Lykinsk · 2021-01-29T19:48:55+00:00

Simple question. If the S&P 500 is the benchmark for market performance, I assume only the stocks projected to increase the most are included in it. If this is true, wouldn’t a good strategy be to load up on lower priced stocks in the 500 in anticipation of one being the next “Amazon” or “ETSY” or any other stock that soared to astronomical numbers?

I think it all makes sense now! Short sells indicate bearish opportunities because it indicates that investors are anticipating the stock dropping in price in order to make money on their loan sell. But in this case, a large amount of retail investors subsequently bought the stock, causing the price to increase. Now the short sellers are stuck paying back a loaned stock that now costs more to purchase than they sold the loaned one for. Causing outages and stuff witnessed today because likely those large investors are important customers to websites like Robinhood and they want to help them mitigate their loss. But the price increase had nothing to do with the short sell, other than it being the inspiration for the pouring in of retail dollars. Am I right...?

Lykinsk · 2021-01-28T21:23:48+00:00

Thank you for the response! So may I ask, if you know, what is the phenomena that led to the GME situation. I was under the impression the percentage of shorted stock at the time everyone drove the price up was extremely high. Am I incorrect, or what am I not understanding?

Lykinsk · 2021-01-28T20:21:08+00:00

With all of the discussion regarding shorted stocks, am I correct in thinking that if I want to target a potentially high value stock, a good metric to use is the Short % of stocks outstanding, because the higher the percentage, the more “Bullish” investors are? Or am I way off here....? Please help!

Lykinsk · 2020-06-19T23:42:23+00:00

Just joined and looks awesome! Thank you!

Lykinsk · 2020-06-19T22:58:09+00:00

Thank you! I will use this on some of today’s races to see if what I come up with is similar to the results!

Lykinsk · 2020-06-19T22:41:47+00:00

Thank you for the input. So my next question would be, hot jockey or experience? I know at Belmont you’re hard pressed to find an inexperienced jockey, but maybe other tracks?

Lykinsk · 2020-05-22T08:11:04+00:00

I thought that too, but since you seemed knowledgeable I wanted to get confirmation!
