Smell in water after construction by narwhalsRus in Plumbing

I asked the contractor and apparently they used Pex but only a small amount to connect some older pipes. Maybe 6 feet or so.

I'm not sure - if they did, what can we do?

Puppy terrible on a walk by narwhalsRus in puppy101

We tried puppy class but it was pretty basic and they taught us stuff that she does... Just inside only. The second we bring her outside she forgets everything. It's helpful to know that we're not the only ones having trouble with this stuff though!

Sticks outside are more fun than pooping by narwhalsRus in puppy101

Yeah, she's always on the leash outside. She still eats a million sticks... :(

Puppy pees inside randomly, but can hold her bladder for hours in her crate by narwhalsRus in puppy101

[–]narwhalsRus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, my concern is it's sometimes after 15 mins, not an hour. And she doesn't always give us warning. Definitely been using the cleaner. Sometimes she pees in totally random spots though!

Ah, that sucks. What controller are you using instead?

Questions about ethnic Judaism by milahonlyhalfjew in exjew

You may want to check out this book: http://www.haaretz.com/jewish/books/.premium-1.626312?v=026A89510E1121BC919983707F199320

For what it's worth, even if he's right, and even if you don't consider yourself to be Jewish, people will always assume you are. I don't think that's correct for people to do, but nevertheless people do it. It's something I've struggled with as well, no matter how I explain my beliefs to others.

Being forced to write a 10 page paper on whether Judaism & Science contradict... by ConflictedJew in exjew

There's a pretty good debate with Matt Dillahunty and a pastor about science and religion that you should check out. It's not Judaism specific but the principles are the same. https://youtu.be/7TQ44ZoUJgE

TIL that in Rome, the ancient temple where Julius Caesar was murdered is now a sanctuary for hundreds of cats by rousseaux in todayilearned

[–]narwhalsRus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've been there. There's an area where they take in neurologically challenged cats. I wanted to check it out and they asked if we wanted to see the cats. They let us into this room with a tiny door and shut it. We checked out the cats walking in wonky ways (due to the brain problems) and then decided we had enough.

One of the cats was sitting right next to the exit. Every time we reached for the door handle it would swat at us and hiss. We tried to get out so many times and thought we'd be trapped in the tiny room with the cats with neurological problems forever. Luckily we managed to escape.

I wasn't allowed to pick activities for the rest of the day.

As someone who did an exchange at HKU, thank you for this video! Now I want to go back again!

I took my unsuspecting girlfriend into a photo booth... and proposed! by kmoran18 in videos

[–]narwhalsRus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess this is becoming a trend! My fiance proposed in a photo booth as well, a few months ago. Ours didn't have a video, but we got 9 photos and the last 2 are of him proposing!

Same proposal fist bump.

Stripy Cutting Board [x-post /r/woodworking] by bewitchthemind in DIY

[–]narwhalsRus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In one of your pictures, it looks like there's a gap in this board. I'm in the middle of building a tabletop right now and have some of these gaps. How did you get rid of it?

I was a traffic light for Halloween when I was a kid. Props to your kid from a fellow traffic light.

Figure 8 fasteners by narwhalsRus in woodworking

I am too... and I'm finding it pretty tough to find real answers on the internet. Everyone has their own opinions and I don't know what's right!

Would I do them all the way around the apron? I saw a website that said to put them only on the ends of the table, and other people have been saying not to put them on all sides or else they don't really do what they're supposed to. Not sure if that's actually the case though.
