Objective:  By mastering this lesson, you will be able to build the most popular wood fencing that is both pleasing to the eye and functional. Equipment:  Tape measure, 12’ piece of plastic conduit, string line, circular saw, and tape measure.

Scallops generally reflect an 8” deflection overall.

It has been awhile since I wrote about fence posts, but a buddy asked about replacing some a few weeks ago, so I decided it was time again.

• First rule, gang: Do not set wooden posts in concrete.
  1. Dig a hole as close in diameter as you can to the diameter of the post. You want as little wiggle room as possible.

2. Dig deep. Measure the post and plan on burying at least a third of it. For a 5-foot fence, you’d want an 8-foot post and you’d need a 3-foot hole. Don’t cheat by cutting the post shorter.

3. Before you set the post in the hole, place a rock or broken chunk of concrete in the bottom — pointy end up if possible. That little footing will give the post something to stand on instead of damp soil.

4. Set the post in the hole and brace it plumb (or put a helper on the job) and in line and level with the posts you’ve already set.
   If you remember to set the corner posts first, it makes it easy to run string lines between them.

5. Slowly shovel in equal parts crushed rock or sharp gravel and soil, tamping between layers, until you get to ground level. For years I’ve been using an oddly curved length of 2-by-2 to tamp with. Many use an upended shovel. All that’s needed is something long and fairly narrow.

6. When you get to ground level, pour enough of your dirt and rock mix around the post to tromp it down and make a little hill so rain will run away from the post.

7. End-grain is the enemy, which was the reason for installing that little rock “foundation” under the post. It holds that end-grain above whatever moisture might collect at the bottom of the post hole.

JavaScript interview questions that will provide you with in-depth knowledge and help you prepare for your interviews.

Modern email is a patchwork of protocols and extensions. Here is one article to understand them all.

Look, everyone wants to do the fun stuff, but you need to pay attention to the pitfalls of ignoring how your body is supposed to move because it will bite you in the ass.

1. Shoulder Controlled Articular Rotations, (CARS)

2. Cuban Rotations

3. Work Your Extension

Most folks have terrible shoulder extension. Shoulder extension is a seriously undertrained range that your shoulder should have.

Improve your shoulder mobility and boost your running economy with a few simple moves. 

Scapular Push-Up

Start facedown on mat, tuck your toes, then prop yourself up on forearms with elbows under shoulders. Lift hips off the mat, keeping your back straight and abs tight. Clasp one hand around your fist to form a triangle with forearms. Keeping core engaged, bring shoulder blades together and lower chest, stopping when your forehead touches your fist. Push down through forearms to draw apart shoulder blades and return to starting position. Complete 3 sets of 6 reps, resting 30 seconds between sets.

T-Spine Rotation

Lie faceup, knees bent, and feet planted on the floor. Extend right arm to the side, palm facing down. Press right arm into the floor as you slowly drop your legs to the left. Use left hand to gently pull knees toward the floor. Hold for 3 seconds, then return to starting position. Complete 12 reps per side.

Resistance Band Chest Opener

Start in a tall kneeling position, arms at sides. Grip the ends of a resistance band, palms down, and pull it apart to create tension. Keeping elbows straight and maintaining resistance on the band, lift arms overhead. Pause for 1 second, then return to starting position. Complete 2 sets of 10 reps, resting 30 seconds between sets.

Arm Swing

Start in a tall kneeling position, arms at sides, elbows bent 90 degrees, hands in loose fists. Draw one elbow back as you drive the other elbow forward, then immediately switch arm positions. Continue to alternately swing arms back and forward, mimicking the motion of arm drive during running. One swing is one rep. Do as many reps as possible in 20 seconds. Complete 4 sets, resting 30 seconds between sets.

Arm Circle

Start in a tall kneeling position, arms extended out to sides at shoulder height, palms facing down. Make small, clockwise circles with arms, initiating the movement from the upper arm/shoulder joint. One circle is one rep. Do as many reps as possible in 30 seconds. Complete 4 sets, resting 30 seconds between sets.

We take a look at why the GOV.UK Design System changed the element it uses for inputting numbers, making it more accessible and easier to use.

Using <input type="text" inputmode="numeric" pattern="[0-9]*"> allows for a degree of separation between how the user enters data (“input mode”), what the browser expects the user input to contain (type equals number), and potentially how it tries to validate it.

Your project is on a tight budget? We’ve collected some wonderful, free icons and goodies that we’ve discovered lately and that are bound to give your design the finishing touch. We’ve also just recently covered Figma plugins, SVG generators, accessible front-end components and front-end boilerplates — you might find them useful, too.

If you aren't hip to the trends, laundry stripping is a soaking method that uses a combination of cleaning products to rid your laundry of any leftover detergent, dirt, oils, and minerals that couldn't be tackled by your typical laundry detergent alone—hello sweaty, dirty, workout clothes. But before you start stripping your whole closet, you should know that this is a relatively harsh clean that can sometimes leech dye from clothing, so be cautious with anything that is not whites and light colors or that has natural dyes.

There are four main ingredients that you will need—Borax, washing soda (also known as sodium carbonate), laundry detergent, and hot water. You start by filling a bathtub with hot water and then adding a 1/4 cup of Borax, 1/4 cup of washing soda, and 1/2 cup of laundry detergent—if you are using a smaller container, use a 1:1:2 ratio according to size. Next you will submerge your clothing into the tub and let it soak until it cools fully. You will also want to stir it occasionally to really break up the buildup. Once cooled, put the laundry through a water only rinse cycle and then tumble dry. This process takes about 5 hours total, but once you get everything in the bathtub, it is pretty hands off.

Best Homemade Refrigerator Pickles Recipe: How to make pickles, no canning required! These perky crisp pickles make great sandwich toppers.

How To Make Pickles

This recipe really could not be more simple…

• Pack a clean pint-sized jar with sliced cucumbers, onion slices, and dill sprigs. Leave a 1/2 inch of space at the top of the jar for liquid.

• In a small saucepot heat the vinegar, water, garlic, and all spices until the mixture comes to a simmer and the salt and sugar dissolve.

• Cool the brine down to warm, and fill the jar so everything is covered with brine.

• Close the lid tightly and refrigerate for 24 hours before eating.

I use the small pickling cucumbers with the thick bumpy skin. They hold up well and stay crunchy. It doesn’t take too many cucumbers to fill a jar either; I was able to fit three 4-inch long sliced cucumbers in a pint-sized jar.

ANTI-ICON is an exhibition of newly commissioned photographs by Brooklyn-based photographer and performance artist Martine Gutierrez (b. 1989 Berkeley, CA). It continues her exploration of identity across the cultural landscapes of gender, race, class, and celebrity. In ten new works, Gutierrez has transformed herself into a multitude of roles, reinterpreting a diverse canon of radical historical and mythological figures. Through each metamorphosis, Gutierrez embodies the spirit of heroines who have achieved legendary status across cultures, over thousands of years, in both art history and popular culture.

Oscillating multitools have gone from being relatively unknown specialty tools to being must-haves for remodelers. These tools can do a lot more than most users realize, and there are little-known techniques that can boost the their efficiency and productivity.

• Don't have to put blade straight on!
• Keep RPMs high and remove sawdust manually
• Use guide blocks for precision cuts
• Kerf cut with semicircular blade, then switch to cheaper straight blades to finish
• Biscuit joiner and guide block for flooring
• Dull blades can still cut drywall

Meet the Extendabox-rule

The four strokes making up a box end at each intersection. But in our unconsciousness, every one of those lines draws out an imaginary line much further, through the entirety of your design.

A grid works the other way around: you define a set of columns, gutters, and rows to make up certain sections of your design, and you then position all of your objects onto that grid.

I'm in the process of migrating my development process from the old comfortable tools I've been using for the last handful of years over to Mojo-based code whenever possible. I'd like to thank everyone in this subreddit that's helped me in on this journey of discovery in prior posts, and hope that I can continue to benefit from the wisdom of the collective.

Mojolicious lets you do a lot of things more concisely than some other frameworks/modules, too. This type of setup/flow is normally what I use in my client-side scripts:

my $ua = Mojo::UserAgent->new;

my $post_result = $ua->post(
  $endpoint,
  { SOAPAction => $soapaction, 'Content-Type' => 'text/xml' }, # headers
  $message # request body
)->result;

You can train your body to bend the same way you train it to be strong: systematically and progressively.

When I began practicing yoga thirteen years ago, the sensation of stretching was extremely uncomfortable. There are two things that have helped me significantly over the years:

Focus on which joints are involved in the action, and isolate those joints.
For instance, when I do a pancake stretch, I do not feel my hamstrings or my calves. I feel my abs. A lot. This is because I focus on flexing at the hip while keeping my legs strong. A pancake stretch is simply seated hip flexion with the legs wide. Once I am settled into the position, I breathe, inhaling for a count of four and exhaling for a count of six, for 30-60 seconds. Breathing calms the nervous system and overrides the part of your brain that says, “no! I don’t want to be here!”

Get into a position near the point of stretch and do something there.
If you are working on hip extension (pure hip extension, not lumbar extension), get into a tall half-kneeling position with your right leg back. See if you can set yourself up so you feel strong with a sense of the beginning of a stretch in your right hip. As you exhale, raise your arm overhead. Inhale, lower the arm down. Perform 6-8 repetitions and switch sides.

Many people think they have tight hips. But is it tightness? Or is it something else?

If you practiced folding forward to touch your toes regularly for three weeks, you would notice it getting easier.

Maybe what you are experiencing is actually hip weakness.
