[actives] Put some GTs from a spore print to a plate almost three weeks ago. No activity yet. How long would you all wait. I'm in no rush and don't want to mess with more agar right now.

For reference my ttbvi spores have already filled a plate and that was the same batch of agar. And that was three days after I did the GT

Toddler (3 in June) is having trouble saying the "S" sound.

He keeps using the back of his tongue and can't get him to figure it out. I know he'll eventually figure it out but we had him screened for preschool and that's one of the things they were concerned about. I guess we just didn't realize he was skipping over it. We read every day to him multiple books. He knows his ABCs and can count to 15 already. Does anyone know any good ways to get him to pick up on it? I tried just showing him.

[gourmet] Have some panellus stipticus grain spawn. I want to work them into a niche idea with a clever name. Problem is I've never worked with them. Made some LC from a syringe and an agar plate. How best to get the most?

Sawdust spawn bags? Inoculate logs? Totems? Can I just throw some in a garden bed with wood chips? I'd just like to grow enough to show them off at farmers markets along with my other gourmets. But they may be a big part of my marketing.

My presto 16qt PC keeps seeping steam by one of the handles. Swapped the main gasket twice. Both leak and make the lid have a grinding feel to it during close on the side of the leak. Tried oil. Tried the old seal. They all give the grinding feel now. Any ideas?

Randomly saw a rat that snuck into my garage. I've never seen a rat in our town at all.

It looked like a cute pet rat. I scared it out of the garage but I'm worried about where it went lol. My neighbors say they haven't seen any either. Probability of it being an old pet?

Never really trimmed this guy since I moved in and there's tons of dead needles at the bottom. What's the best route to take to trim this guy up a bit and take a few feet off the top?

Xtream cartridge filter housing and powerflo pump don't seem to line up with the union.

No matter what I do there seems to be an angle where they're supposed to meet. Pool store swears it's supposed to be like this.

This is not medical advice so stop flagging it you clanker.

Hey there all. I've been following a routine the last couple weeks to help with my back pain. Weirdly it starts with walking backwards for five minutes as a warm up. The routine does help but I'm looking for a different warm up than retro walking. Any ideas?

I stretch my hip flexors after walking backwards. Then I do my glutes. Then I do my back stretches. Obviously working on my core is ideal and I'm doing that but honestly this is same day pain relief for chronic lower back pain. I just don't like walking backwards and I doubt it's doing much but I want to experiment. I'm mostly looking for something I can do easily and quietly without weights for now.

How did it affect you directly? Did you notice something different? I'm looking for answers from observers as well. I'm just worried about starting all over at a different dept. But if I stay where I am I know I'm going to spend the next fifteen years waking up 4-5 times a night. With our increase in call numbers AMD other policies it's just looking bleak for the pay when I can drive the same amount of time another direction for 20k more.
