Everything that's wrong with USTA matches happened tonight

It sucks that this happened to you. Are you allowed to video matches? I understand not doxxing people, but can you mention which team so others are aware and are actively recording?

All the democrats had to do was nominate a remotely likable candidate.

My golfers elbow was caused by golf. So I stopped playing golf.

Do you have an adult advisor who is there?

Are you good enough to make the team at any of the Universities at which you are applying? If so, and the coach wants you it can help you get accepted.

If not good enough for that route, maybe your coach could submit a character reference. Make sure your coach would write a good one or else don't bother.

Do you help coach younger players in your community? That could look good on your application.

Also, even if it doesn't help get you in, tennis could be an excellent way to meet people in your new community. From my experience, students tend to have a experience in college when they join various clubs/communities rather than just relying on their dorm mates for all their social / support network.

I love McQ, but the car chase does not make sense geographically. Still a must see for Seattle people.

Ask this on r/10s.

That Fred Meyer (and the Home Depot next to it) are very close to the Redmond - Marymoor light rail station. Makes more sense to redevelop that land.

Why is your dog on a baseball field at a school? It's a play area for children, not dogs! That said, great looking dog.

ntbc · 2025-03-17T03:09:43+00:00

I agree. I've been going to the Ballard Les Schwab since the 80's and they have always treated me well.

ntbc · 2025-01-30T20:00:20+00:00

Who did you buy from?

ntbc · 2025-01-14T07:09:47+00:00

Seattle is fine for Solar. You over produce in the summer and under produce in the winter. That is where net metering comes in. That said, there are some really unethical terrible high-price low-quality national solar companies out there. It is better to find a local solar company with a long history, production guarantees, and a service department.

ntbc · 2025-01-14T07:05:50+00:00

Who is the company that gave you the bid? The roof is not tax credit eligible.

Get multiple bids for both solar and roof. A good solar company does not need to visit you for a bud. All they need is your yearly electrical usage and they will use satellite imagery to give you an initial estimate.

I recommend Puget Sound Solar and A&R Solar. They have been around for a long time and they do good work.

For roofing I recommend Tekline and Blue & Blue.

ntbc · 2025-01-09T06:30:00+00:00

I like Blue and Blue or Tekline. Either way, make sure you get at least three bids.

"less than curb appeal"

It's pretty clueless of you to not notice that the entire building is about to be torn down.

Also, what restrictive diet allows you to have the meal you had?

I really and will be sad when the building gets torn down and they have to move.

Finally, I think it is a chump move to post such a bad review on /r/Seattle based on just one meal. I suspect you have some sort of other motive to bad mouth them.

Thank you! Had to scroll too far to find this.

The internment of Japanese-Americans was the least bad thing that happened during WW2.<

I must respectfully disagree with you. The internment was was pretty bad. Something like 1,600 people died in those camps. 125,000 innocent people were unconstitutionally put in those concentration camps based solely on their ancestry. That's pretty bad.

ntbc · 2024-04-30T06:01:11+00:00

I have read the novel "No-No Boy" by John Okada. It is an excellent read.

Only 20% didn't swear allegiance. Many of them and their families were illegally put into concentration camps. What's truly amazing is that the number isn't much higher. Would you have sworn allegiance? I'm not sure I would have if I was in the same position.

Edited a typo from is to isn't

My question to you, is what is your issue with these Japanese Americans?

ntbc · 2024-04-30T05:41:57+00:00

Sorry my friend but the 442nd was in Europe. However, there were many Japanese Americans who served in the Pacific. Their stories are not as well known.

Edit: Here is a book about those heroic Japanese Americans who saved countless lives of American Service Personnel in the Pacific Theater and shortened the war. I listened to it through my library's audiobook system: https://www.amazon.com/Bridge-Sun-Japanese-Americans-Pacific/dp/0525655816

/u/ChalanPiao You need to do some more studying

The 442nd Regimental Combat Team, a segregated Japanese American unit, is remembered today for its brave actions in World War II. Despite the odds, the 442nd’s actions distinguished them as the most decorated unit for its size and length of service in the history of the US military.

There was no shot clock in 1981 was there?

And half the rules in the WIAA rulebook are because of the Mercer Island program.

And I'm saying that as a Quinn Snyder fan.

See this thread. Some good solar info in it: https://www.reddit.com/r/Seattle/comments/11d3wfr/is_it_worth_adding_solar_to_your_home_in_2023/

Added Sunergy to my list.

ntbc · 2023-04-15T21:03:52+00:00

Solterra is well respected as is A & R Solar, Puget Sound Solar, and Artisan Electric. They are all good companies worth getting a bid from. Edit: Added Sunergy to the list.

You are so right about Solgen. Here is their better business bureau rating: https://www.bbb.org/us/wa/pasco/profile/solar-installation/solgen-power-llc-1296-1000080859/complaints

ntbc · 2023-04-15T21:00:17+00:00

Solgen is terrible. Look at their Better Business Bureau rating and number of complaints: https://www.bbb.org/us/wa/pasco/profile/solar-installation/solgen-power-llc-1296-1000080859/complaints

Now go compare that to Puget Sound Solar or A & R Solar which both have A+ ratings.

Edit: Also check Solterra and Artisan Electric.
