![]() ![]() Shout out my tour guide Skeeter! He was the best! Great guide, extremely funny, and delivering an up beat, educational tour with a side of humor. It was awesome to see the inside and understanding the history and purpose of the cavern and it’s evolution. My tour was the first of the day of a Thursday so that was probably why there was no crowd to follow but it added to the adventure for me! The price was $21.94 and the tour lasted a little over an hour. There was a gift shop, snack area, very nice restrooms, and an open indoor ropes course to the side. I made my way over and when walking into the underground welcome center was warmly greeting by seven or so staff. There are lots of signs and info but needed to be a little more clear and simple.Īfter entering through the side and walking down a creepy hall, I walk into this massive room and there was the tram, and across the giant room was a town façade and waiting area. I think those main tour doors needed to be construction orange or green with a big clear enter sign enter sign. There was not anyone else really around and even though there were signs I didn’t know what to do. I pulled up and drove around and found the location. I registered, purchased tickets, and signed wavers all online and via digital delivery. This adventure was the best idea, something different, and it did not disappoint. This would make for a better option if you would like your legacy to live on for years to come. However, they do have nice octagon shaped bricks inside and those are $250 for non members and $200 for members. I did check out the brick engraving and that's $125 to do that, but gets shared after a while due to weather. ![]() There are lots of photos of the different era cars on the Google page, however, I clicked the snap button on my favorites. You really feel the energy from that day in there. TCM also shows their entire sinkhole collection and history of everything. The Museum has a wonderful collection of corvettes over the years. Also the cafe was closed (closes at 3p) when we went and I was looking forward to doing that too but they weren't open. We didn't get to see the private collection, and I wish they had some sign at the check-in desk that have the hours of when they are open. My aunt and I joked that the t-shirts in the gift shop should say “I survived the City Museum with all my kids.” The gift shop souvenirs were about as random as the museum which was kind of funny. (Alcohol available- and after spending time in that museum- I can see why.) □ I will say that the food from the restaurant we ate at was good. Maybe it’s not always as busy as it was the day that we went but it was stressful as the parents trying to keep up with kids that go up a set of stairs that go behind a wall and it takes you 5 minutes to find where it comes out. ![]() There were also several things that stood out as red flags to us as being safety concerns/ not up to code. There’s no one there to help parents FIND their kids when their kids go down a slide when the sign says it ends on one floor but actually ends on another. We were there for several hours and I only ever saw one worker. The one real station I saw amidst the chaos was a toddler area where some big kids had taken over and there were no workers to be seen. You go from a winding metal structure for kids to climb on to a wall of antiques with no explanation. This isn’t the kind of museum that has different learning stations, everything just randomly turns into something else. If you are expecting an organized, learning environment for kids, this is not it. The day that we went the museum was packed and with the play structures being so big and behind walls and going floor to floor, it was extremely stressful trying to keep up with the children with our group. Most of them go from one floor to another (I think there were a few that went between three floors). The playgrounds/ climbing/sliding structures are very unique. It’s almost like an interactive art museum. The City Museum is unique in the way that it feels like intentional chaos. ![]() ![]() ![]() Get it from Everneat on Etsy for $19.99 (available in three scents). Way better than BKF and wipes off easily. Very impressed! I used not even 5% of one jar (for just the very dirty door) so it seems like it will last a while. Just smeared it on, added a little H2O to the scrubbie and went to town. It does require elbow grease, because, hello, baked on bits of grease! But was very simple to use. I wore nitrile gloves and the scrubbie did end up poking a hole in them, so keep that in mind if you just got a mani or don’t want rough nails - use thick gloves. Works beautifully! I think the combo of grit in the scrub plus the metal scrubbie are magic together. The Lift smells fantastic, natural, not chemically, and the Clear truly is unscented. I bought the Lift scent and the unscented. I hate chemical cleaners, so I thought I would try this. Promising review: "LOVE IT! Oven door is a constant struggle.

Just a little dish soap, baking soda and a spin of the brush. Ten minutes with my handy drill and the shower has never been cleaner. I've used everything from abrasive powders, gels that sit to most recently the bathroom magic erasers and nothing really got the grime out. Man do I regret not picking them up as soon as I saw them!

I haven’t tried it on rust yet so we’ll see how that goes. It works amazing so far! No overpowering smell (barely any smell at all), easy to use, and a little product goes a long way. The texture feels similar to when you mix honey with sugar to make a lip scrub, except it’s super fine grit and more pasty like putty or clay. I noticed it really does remove mineral build up, but it takes a lot of elbow grease and repetitive applications before you start seeing progress. It removed hard water stains from my sinks and faucets. Needless to say I’m very impressed! It removed stubborn mold and grime from my shower tile grout with use of a hard bristle tooth brush. Of course I caved and had to try it for myself. Everyone on social media was talking about how amazing this product was for cleaning around the house and I just thought they were all jumping on some kind of band wagon. Promising review: "Honestly I was very skeptical when I first purchased. I tried it first on my Le Creuset cast iron pan (seen above, right) and really was amazed at how just one pass with The Pink Stuff (and a scouring brush) took off almost every stain! I can't wait to try it on literally everything in my home that needs a deep cleaning. Honestly, wow! It really does work wonders. After hearing what incredible things The Pink Stuff can do, I finally ordered it and tried it for myself. ![]() ![]() For those taking the time to read thru the posts, the problem was it would never start the first time every day, without a spritz of starting fluid.Īpparently it was getting electric thru the spark plug wires (shown by the tester) but loosing too much power thru the caps resulting in a weak spark. Here we are on Wednesday morning, and again, it started right up. If the coolant temp gauge is not reading correctly, I’d go straight there. If pressure is OK, I’d start with a bad air intake temp sensor, or bad coolant temp sensor. Tried again a few hours later, it started right up. If you shoot in a bit of starter fluid the the pump pressure builds to the correct or low end of the spec, it may be a bad regulator or bad pump. Right off the bat, it sounds like a timing issue.(I had tried new plugs a few days earlier and it didn't help the situation.) Using starting fluid to get the engine running faster avoids wear to starters and fatigue to ones arm with pull start engines, especially on rarely used machines. ![]() Put the new spark plugs in just because the old ones had been used for a season. Starting fluid is sprayed into the engine intake near the air filter, or into the carburetor bore or a spark plug hole of an engine to get added fuel to the combustion cylinder quickly. If you need starter fluid on a gasser with fuel injection, then something is really wrong with the car and should be fixit ASAP. But, I refreshed the plug ends of the spark plug wires and made sure to forcefully push the wires into the caps as they were screwed on. One more squirt, and then I was able to fire it right up. I sprayed two quick squirts of starter fluid into the carb (air filter removed), still no go. ![]() I put fresh gas in, check the oil, fresh battery, and it wouldnt start. The old ignition coil tested ok again, and again just for s&g I put it back on the ski. 1 Was starting a Montero (2.6, gas engine) the other day.

When it comes to cocktails, there are always a few things that can help while you are attempting a perfect margarita recipe.įor instance, did you know that cold citrus doesn’t make juice as easily? Instead, to ensure that you get a nice cold drink, squeeze your fresh juice at room temperature, add ice to a small cocktail shaker, shake vigorously and serve immediately.

Diagnosis and management of Peyronie disease. Peyronie's disease: Diagnosis and medical management. Difficulty fathering a child, because intercourse is difficult or impossible.Stress on your relationship with your sexual partner.Anxiety or stress about sexual abilities or the appearance of your penis.Difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection (erectile dysfunction).ComplicationsĬomplications of Peyronie's disease might include: Other factors - including certain health conditions, smoking and some types of prostate surgery - might be linked to Peyronie's disease. A small amount of curvature in younger men is normal and not concerning. Curvature in younger men is less often due to Peyronie's disease and is more commonly called congenital penile curvature. Peyronie's disease can occur in men of any age, but the prevalence of the condition increases with age, especially for men in their 50s and 60s. For example, a number of men who have Peyronie's disease also have a cordlike thickening across the palm that causes the fingers to pull inward (Dupuytren's contracture). Men who have certain connective tissue disorders appear to have an increased risk of developing Peyronie's disease. ![]() If a family member has Peyronie's disease, you have an increased risk of the condition. However, various factors can contribute to poor wound healing and scar tissue buildup that might play a role in Peyronie's disease. ![]() Minor injury to the penis doesn't always lead to Peyronie's disease. Researchers are investigating whether Peyronie's disease might be linked to an inherited trait or certain health conditions. In some men, Peyronie's disease comes on gradually and doesn't seem to be related to an injury. In Peyronie's disease, when the penis becomes erect, the region with the scar tissue doesn't stretch, and the penis bends or becomes disfigured and possibly painful. As the chambers fill with blood, the penis expands, straightens and stiffens into an erection. When you become sexually aroused, blood flow to these chambers increases. Each of the corpora cavernosa is encased in a sheath of elastic tissue called the tunica albuginea (TOO-nih-kuh al-BYOO-JIN-e-uh), which stretches during an erection. This can lead to a nodule you can feel or development of curvature.Įach side of the penis contains a spongelike tube (corpus cavernosum) that contains many tiny blood vessels. However, most often, no specific trauma to the penis is recalled.ĭuring the healing process after injury to the penis, scar tissue forms in a disorganized manner. For example, the penis might be damaged during sex, athletic activity or as the result of an accident. It's thought Peyronie's disease generally results from repeated injury to the penis. The cause of Peyronie's disease isn't completely understood, but a number of factors appear to be involved. This sudden influx of blood causes an erection by expanding, straightening and stiffening the penis. During sexual arousal, nerve impulses increase blood flow to both of these cylinders. The penis contains two cylindrical, spongelike structures (corpora cavernosa). If you've had the condition for some time, you may wish to see a doctor if the pain, curvature, length or other deformities bother you or your partner. Early treatment gives you the best chance to improve the condition - or prevent it from getting worse. See your doctor as soon as possible after you notice signs or symptoms of Peyronie's disease. In some men, both the curvature and pain associated with Peyronie's disease improve without treatment. Pain during erections usually improves within one to two years, but the scar tissue, penile shortening and curvature often remain. At some point, however, the condition typically stabilizes after three to 12 months or so. The curvature and penile shortening associated with Peyronie's disease might gradually worsen. In some men with Peyronie's disease, the erect penis might have narrowing, indentations or even an hourglass-like appearance, with a tight, narrow band around the shaft. You might have penile pain, with or without an erection. Your penis might become shorter as a result of Peyronie's disease. But, often men report erectile dysfunction before the beginning of Peyronie's disease symptoms. Peyronie's disease might cause problems getting or maintaining an erection (erectile dysfunction). Your penis might curve upward or downward or bend to one side. The scar tissue associated with Peyronie's disease - called plaque but different from plaque that can build up in blood vessels - can be felt under the skin of the penis as flat lumps or a band of hard tissue. The most common signs and symptoms include: Peyronie's disease signs and symptoms might appear suddenly or develop gradually. ![]() ![]() ![]() (For them) to see that I never gave up makes me so happy – that I can show them by example.” “I just know how much time and effort I put into this… I’m so happy North is here to see this because my kids know I’ve taken time away from them to study.

Luckily, the Yabane Cowl pattern includes a link to a handy blocking video, which I watched with reverence. How was I going to get those knife-edged pleats and folds? I consider myself a confident blocker, but I had no clue how to approach this one. I raced through the larger size of the cowl, which took two skeins plus a few more yards of Atlas.Īs fun as it had been to knit, as a pre-blocked piece of knitting, it had a lot of-well, humanity.Īfter the obligatory soak in the Soak, the rolling up in the towel, and the stomping thereupon, I had a damp and frankly bedraggled piece of knitting. I was enchanted to see folds forming from ridges of increases and decreases I felt so clever to be doing this. It was a dream to knit I couldn’t put it down. The Yabane Cowl is an origami-inspired knit that Olga Buraya-Kefelian taught at an in-person workshop at MDK World Headquarters last month. I was at the ironing board, blocking my finished Yabane Cowl. I hope you enjoyed learning, and will vote, favorite, and subscribe.If you’d heard the shrieks and hysterical giggles coming from my basement the other day, you’d have thought I’d finally gone ’round the bend for good. That's all to it! I know it was only 3 steps, however, this takes time to master. You know the general formation, so keep trying! Sometimes I make mistakes and need to disassemble and reassemble a couple of times. The assembly takes a little while to master.Make sure you don't connect any too early, or else you will have a random cube in the middle. Continue in this pattern, connecting and locking.Continue adding pyramids until two units come very close together.You know how in the original pyramid, there are three extra things sticking out for pyramids to be attached? Attach three pyramids to the original, one per side. I have done my best with the text area of this step, however, it is extremely difficult to explain. Eventually, you will be using already added pieces for your pyramids, but the pictures will guide you. Here is my hint: when it comes close, connect it. ![]() Now that you have one triangle, we need to keep adding triangles, and connecting necessary pieces. If any steps in this process are unclear, check out the pictures for clarification. Release the fold for the triangle, and you'll have a bird-like formation.Fold the square in half on the crease, forming a triangle.Repeat step 11 for the other end sticking out.Take one of the ends sticking out and align it into the square, forming it in with the square.Fold the two triangles sticking out back over Fold the remaining 1/4 over the fold, and tuck the other triangle inside of the other fold. Repeat step 6 except for the other side.Here is where it gets tricky: on the part that's folded over, take a corner and fold it up so one section remains.When you open it up, you will have 4 sections The sticky part should be along the left or right edge, not the top or bottom. What we are going to make will look quite a bit like birds with demented wings, so bear with me! Every vote counts toward the competition, and I understand a lot of people will enter, and if you like origami and paper folding enough for your vote, thank you!Ĭreating the Units is relatively easy, if you do the correct steps. Therefore, if you feel that this instructable is "worthy", please consider voting. I loved that thing, and would love the newer, better 2.0 version. I have the 1.0 version, but it got jammed or something, and isn't working properly. And, honestly, I'm not going to lie I love 3Doodlers. Now, I would love to have a laser cutter, as it would expand the variety of projects I do, and it would help me deliver more to you. I entered this for the same reason as everybody else: for the Laser Cutter. Easy and simple!Īs you can tell, this 'ible was entered into the new contest: EpilogContest. No scissors, no box cutter, no EXACTO knife. (I used post-it notes, but this is a bit more difficult) īut, honestly. Origami paper, square paper, or post it notes.But this shouldn't stop you from making your very own origami unit ball! But, you can make a "ball" out of paper! Now, this ball isn't round, it actually has many different pyramid-like points. We see balls everywhere.on the playground, at sports, in painting, everywhere! You can make one fairly easily out of clay, but not everyone has clay on hand. ![]() |
