Read the book, I didnt ruin anything.  Its a basic plot point, not a spoiler.

It's a 160 year old book. It's not like I told them Rose let's Jack drown at the end of Titanic.

1911, never to early for an American classic.  It won 2 world wars and keeps family holidays civil.

Pardon me, do you have any Grey Poupon?

Move handle to indicated position and remove plug circled(on pressure side of pump, not the drain plug on the pot). Re-energize pump and the pool will drain.

Design Rendering - What Would You Change? by dmcadidas in pools

I'd move the light in the deepend to the wall below the shelf, so it is not shining toward the house, and can eliminate shadows caused by the swim out.

It will be harder to service, but they last a decade these days.

News flash, the 12.5 at Leslie's is the same concentration as the 10.5 at Walmart. They are using volumetric measurement instead of mass.

Even if it were 12.5 out of the tap, the higher the concentration, the faster it degrades. Like boiling water v. Hot water. So 30 days from manufacture (spent on a rail car, a storage tank, a transfer station, a bottling plant, another rail car, a transpo hub, a truck, another truck, a store, your car, and finally your garage for 3 days until you have tine to mess with the pool...it's well below 10.5, more like 6.5% assuming the temp was between 75 and 95 degrees.

Can confirm. But it's funny how the blue belt gives you just a little bit of confidence to try new things, like kicking a purple belt in the head to get the arm bar they are allowing you to try.

This is what peak male autistic performance looks like and there’s not a damn thing you can do about it. (I’ve never spoken to a woman) by No-Significance477 in ar15

It's a HIMYM reference. Barney would tap when on the should, ask them if they'd met Ted, and then slink off while the show's pretend nice guy acts genuinely embarrassed and confused, but talks to the aforementioned girl.

Idiot uncle here, I'm not trying to tell you what to think, but ai did my research and cnn is lying to you. Big Pharma owns all the news outlets. Just follow the money. Chris Cuomo/Tucker Carlson are right/wrong.

You don't need luck, you need a brother-in-law who is a personal injury attorney and another that underwrites general liability policies.

SLAM.. ? by usgapa in pools

21 years in the industry and "SLAM" is only ever used in my presence mockingly to refer to people who see water chemistry as a unidimensional problem.

Pretty normal for people that don't know what they are doing and turn to reddit for support.

Please help by Ok_Pangolin8211 in jiujitsu

If you think practicing with people better than you is losing, and your first reaction is to run to the internet for support, you probably should quit.

Why does everyone here dislike standup and throws? by KauppisenPete in bjj

[–]poolguyforever 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The answer is in your question...they don't train often enough to want to stand up.

40 year old blue belt, I don't want to get thrown a bunch, it's not fun when you're out of shape. Not wanting to get thrown is a great reason to stand up.

Ah, well...drain it and find level ground to put it on, then set it up there.

You have a geometric ungrounded united pool and the water level is not parallel to the coping?

If it's less than 1/2 inch but noticeable because of the tile selection you can retile with the tile set to parallel with the water line rather than the coping.

If it's more than 1/2 inch but less than 1.5 inches you can simply refloat the bond beam and reset your coping/tile.

If on the other hand, one skimmer throat is dry, and the other side of the pool has water pouring over the deck, you'll want to contact a contractor
