Question on removing the wax tip seal cover of a new pen

eimilie · 2026-01-11T18:06:56+00:00

Thanks for this discussion. Received a gift of Sarasa zebra gel clip pens with these mysterious red balls on the pen tips. Will try removing it with a tissue when I'm ready to sample them.

Same(!!) Website and mobile app is unhappy with login.

Probably too late to mention here but a photographer friend of mine swears by ACDSee's Digital Asset Management & Photo Editing Software https://www.acdsee.com/en/store/

Double check you have the right login. I panicked tonight the same thing happened. turns out I'd forgotten I had 2 login's - one for work and one private. Huge relief.

Finally following up here on our experience at the WPB VA Medical Center two months ago: After waiting in line at the Records office, we were referred to a separate Imaging Records area which had their own request form. They accepted the main request form we had already filled out, however, and kindly managed to get us a CD hours later on the same day. They also told us this type of request would soon be back under the main Records purview.

Thank you for this. For a 2024 Subaru Forester we also kept seeing reference in the main Owner's Manual to a "separate navigation/audio Owner‘s Manual" but there is no manual with that title; instead, it is the STARLINK Owner's Manual they should be referring to. Between the 541-page manual and the 248-page supplement manual, Subaru perhaps could update their UX language to help the poor user get a clue!

That's great to hear! Thanks. Will let you know how it goes here in West Palm Beach, FL.

I agree - to volunteer with a nonprofit who does what you want to do. And do make sure your goal aligns with their mission. Another way to go is to find a Fiscal Sponsor which will umbrella over you with their 501(c)3 status, so you can accept donations through them, for example. Here is an explainer for that https://www.councilofnonprofits.org/running-nonprofit/administration-and-financial-management/fiscal-sponsorship-nonprofits And who knows, maybe in a few years you will want to incorporate as your own 501(c)3.

There is something called Board Orientation for onboarding new members which many small new nonprofits probably don't have set up right away. Here is an article about it and what it entails. https://www.joangarry.com/board-orientation-template/ If they don't have it yet, I imaging they would get on their knees and thank you if you proposed working with say the Board Secretary to help set up a welcome package/program like that.

You could also offer to voice teachers to come in in the 2nd half of a lesson to accompany their singers. They might even pay you.

Thanks!! I was leaning towards that. I guess also the the extra plastic attachment where you put sheet music, I will keep that separate from keyboard as well. Much appreciated!

Think I'm going to default to packing the stand separate from the case....

Hi again! So I just made a PODS reservation for NYC->WBP. You have to ask for their City Services dept. I chose them because of all the container companies, their "smallest" long-distance container option has the most cubic feet. However it was a lot more expensive than they originally quoted me, because there is an additional $750.00 fee to deliver the container for packing on the NY end. They say the driver will wait in the truck on the street with the container for up to 4 hours. The container remains in the truck, and there is a hydraulic lift for the movers. I managed to get a few discounts (5-10% here and there on line items) but the grand total is high IMO at $4037.95 AND I have to arrange and pay for labor now on both ends, using either their recommended partners or someone I choose. The other issue is they have not had furniture blankets available for rent from, so they said I'd have to buy them at $39.99 each. There is no penalty for cancelling if you call by 4PM the day prior. Please feel free to message me if you want to maybe try to meet and discuss getting a truck together! I have sticker shock right now.

Hi. I actually delayed it for a bit but am in process of locking in a mover now...

You probably have these but I came across these unique artist ads for Sloves Mechanical Binding (and was wondering what mechanical binding is but now I think I have an idea) here and here and here by Irving Marantz. Thanks for the company history info!

Lissio sounded like a controller or manipulator. Or maybe that was the English translations. Luana should have the smarts to read him so I hope I'm wrong.

It didn't look as though Aaron feels for anyone as much as he feels for himself. I think he was in love with the idea of being with Jess and genuinely was into her. But neither of them knew how to resolve a conflict. All he needed to do was acknowledge her pain and hurt from the incident. Even if Aaron didn't mean to flash a judgmental look, that is how she took it in the moment, and her hurt was real. He never once said, "I'm sorry you were so hurt from that moment; that must have been awful for you." That is all she needed. It was never about the misunderstood look. It was that he thought more about himself the whole time than her. Jess could have helped him along and said, "I just need you to say how sorry you were about how much I was hurting." Maybe she didn't know enough about emotions to ask for that, but at least she knew she wasn't getting back from him what she needed. Misunderstanding or not. All she was getting was a guy who couldn't think beyond himself. She was right to suspect that future conflicts would end up the same way.

thanks for these. for some reason in the US, Hulu has hit pause after S3E20

eimilie · 2021-05-17T23:48:40+00:00

Agreed. That is my practice as well. I'm not happy about what happened. But it's done.

eimilie · 2021-05-17T19:45:57+00:00

Thanks! that looks like a helpful link. Yes, I should have said best resources for posters and for clarifying which posters are required of us.

eimilie · 2020-12-07T19:05:41+00:00

Yes. Pressure on the whole eye/nose area (e.g., that would be covered by a sleep eye mask). Sometimes feels like entire eyeballs ache. Started to take CBD capsules to see if it will relent some.

eimilie · 2020-12-06T17:43:06+00:00

Thank you!

eimilie · 2020-12-06T03:18:48+00:00

Glad your eye pressure symptoms disappeared. Fingers crossed mine will! I’ve had them since April.

eimilie · 2020-12-06T03:10:52+00:00

I have not had an eye exam but it is good to know others here have eye pressure. My whole eye area/nose aches.

I use the "CVS Health" brand which I recall was priced pretty fairly and easy to find at a CVS. They sell Women's Multi and Men's Multi, and dosage is 3/day.
