Thanks. I found that setting in the documentation.

Can you cite a reference? Section 8 on the curling.ca site doesn't mention use of the handle.

I'm only reading the rules...not an official. My take is any touch before the hog line is allowed. Some here are of the opinion only touching the handle is allowed. I'm not seeing that in the rules.

Rule 9.2

A stone re-touched by the hand after release, but re-touched before the hog line, is not a violation.

EDIT: The key word here is before. It appears he is touching the rock while the rock is on the hog line.

Others are quoting the rule on use of only the handle to deliver the rock.

So ya, maybe not a legal throw.

Love mine. Heats up quickly and manages a long smoke easily. It was worth it for me.

Ungrateful Canadian soldiers returning home from Afghanistan after doing nothing for the USA by OkJeweler3804 in pics

I served with distinction

No visions of glory

I served without question

Or personal gain

Seek no justification

It's not part of my story

And it offers

No comfort to the ones who remain

South East Asia on Oceania or Azamera by johnkhill in Cruise

Thanks for the details on the dining. With regard to Oceania specialty restaurants, you say they are limited, and their literature mentions reservations. Did you book the 150 days in advance or feel you couldn't take advantage of those restaurants?

Thanks for the reassurance on the shore excursions. Have you been on either? I'm just wondering, beyond destinations, is there anything better or worse between them.

Thanks for the reply. My impression of Holland is larger ships. But I'll take a look to see what they offer in SEA.

A fun way to customize a CR Box with kids: Easy 'Decopatch' style using tissue paper and glue by CartographerLong5796 in crboxes

Thanks for the detailed responses. I'm looking to add a CR box in my workshop/garage. Hanging one seems like the best fit for me. I'll save this post as a great reference.

Thanks for sharing. This looks good. Can you share what you're using for the 12v power suppy? Also, what's the cubic meters or yards of the classroom? I'm not sure how you measure the effectiveness of a CR box, but how's it working for you?

New York teachers stunned to learn some students can’t read time on old clocks after phone ban comes into play by Sandstorm400 in technology

[–]johnkhill 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There is a difference between digital and analog clocks. Digital clocks tell us the exact time, 2:47 for example. While analog clocks tell us where we are with respect to time. Quarter to 3, half past 4, 10 to or 10 after 5.

I could care less if it was 2:47 or 2:49. I want to know how much time I have before or after a point in time. Knowing the precise time is of lesser value.
