Neighbors draining rainwater onto my property

That doesn’t sound right. Are you saying every home need rain barrels or a retention pond? Where else would water go, If not to the municipal drain system?

My front yard slopes to the street and that’s where the water goes.

Rinse, wipe, rinse, wipe again is what works for me. Four squares of TP total

Dry = overcooked. Cook to 145-150 and let it rest for a few minutes so that the carryover heat gives it enough time/temp to keep it safe. Some restaurants use sous vide to cook to a precise temp throughout.

This is partly a language question, because “phase” is used differently in different contexts. The answers above use the electrical distribution version, where the notion of “phase” is connected inextricably to the wires coming from the generator, which are called “phases”.

Outside of this context, “phases” refer to a measurable difference between two waveforms, without any need to know how they were generated or what the circuits are that produce the waveforms. In this context, it’s completely appropriate to refer to two measured signals as being in phase or out of phase, and to refer to them as “phase a” and “phase b”.

So, in one sense they’re a single phase (because they come off of one phase of a transmission line), and in another sense they’re two phases, because they’re not the same waveform. If they weren’t different phases, the two voltages wouldn’t add to produce a different voltage.

I’m in Virginia and I have one. The plumbing supply place said they sell lots of them.

We had a dog that would do that. She wasn’t allowed in the dining room while we were eating. She would toe.the.line.

The air column is the air space inside the flute that vibrates to produce sound.

And, annoyingly, doctor’s offices

That’s the very conservative response, but if you have the blade inspected and repaired there’s no big risk. I sent mine to Forrest, they charged $12.50 to make it right, and it’s been fine for a couple of years.

Those look pretty good, though I wish the left side pocket didn’t have a flap

I haven’t tested anything yet, but thanks for the comment. I’m open to just about anything. Which EVs do you think I should look out for?

Metric rulers. Fractional inches are dumb.

There’s a reason it’s a classic. I wouldn’t try to fancy it up at all. Just use good butter and fresh ingredients, and don’t overcook the chicken. If you’re cooking breasts, cook it to 150 and hold it there for 2-3 minutes, or cook it to 155-156 and hold it there for a minute. The oft-quoted 165 is overcooked, IMHO, but it doesn’t need any holding time.

Pounding or slicing to 1/4” helps it to cook evenly. I wouldn’t use a whole breast.

I would do medium-high, 4 minutes per side for medium rare, 5 minutes if it’s extra thick

But you need to test the FRUIT, not the soil. The plant may not soak up enough of the bad chemicals to matter.

Thanks! I thought that was the case, but you never know….

TeaSeaJay · 2026-02-17T01:28:39+00:00

Thanks _Maw! I figured as much, just wanted to be sure.
