12/5/2023 0 Comments Crochet hat with 2 pom poms![]() I have a large pom pom maker from a craft store. If the part about sewing up the sides and gathering the top doesn’t make sense, here is a video clip to show you what I mean!Īfter gathering the hat I finished weaving in the tail and attached a homemade pom pom. When I finished sewing the sides together, I used the rest of the tail and my tapestry needle to weave in and out around top of the hat, pulling it tight as I went to gather it together. I used the tail and a tapestry needle to sew the two sides of the rectangle together, making sure that the straight edge of the HDC slip stitch I just did was facing outward. This is optional, but if you do want to add it, a HDC slip stitch means you YO, insert your hook, pull up a loop, then pull directly through the two loops on your hook.Īfter adding the border on the side, I tied off and left myself a really long tail (probably about 15 to 20 inches). I worked a HDC slip stitch along the side so that the brim of my hat would be a little straighter when I folded it up. For example, I have a 23 inch diameter head and I made the width of my rectangle 20 inches, which ended up being 65 rows of the front bottom loop HDC.Īfter I worked my 65 rows, I chained 1 and turned along the side of my work. Repeat row 2 until your rectangle measures about 3 inches less than the diameter of your head. (The turning chain does not count as a stitch, so your first stitch should be worked directly into the first front bottom loop of the row below.) Chain 2 and turn. ROW 2: HDC across the row, inserting your hook up through the front bottom loop only. (A HDC is YO, insert your hook, pull up a loop, YO, pull through all three loops on your hook.) Chain 2 and turn. ![]() ROW 1: Starting in the 3rd chain from the hook, work a half double crochet (HDC) in each chain. 11 in x 19 in hat, 8 inches tall when you fold up the brim). For adult size hat: Chain 52 (or 60 for a slouchier look-see the Rich Teal colored hat for appx. Make a base chain that measures the same length as your desired hat height. You can also use the chart below for some standard head sizes to measure your chain. You are making this hat lengthwise, so the length of your base chain will be your hat height. ![]() The best way to make sure your hat fits is to make your base chain the same length as the tip of your nose to the crown of your head. Half Double Crochet Front Bottom Loop: Work as a normal half double crochet, except insert your hook underneath the front bottom loop that faces you as you work across the row. Half Double Crochet (HDC): Yarn over, insert hook into designated stitch, yarn over and pull a loop back through, yarn over and pull through all three loops on the hook. Size J/6mm hook, scissors, tapestry needle Patons Shetland Chunky Tweed Yarn (75% Acrylic, 25% Wool, 100 g/ 3.5 oz, 136 m/148 yds) ![]() Instead of working in the round, these hats are made by making a simple rectangle, then sewing the sides together and gathering the top. These are perfect for anyone that is new to crochet in general and wants to start with a smaller project. Hello! Nicolina here with a very beginner-friendly hat pattern! I am totally new to making hats and these are the first ones I have ever made.

12/5/2023 0 Comments Trying on bikini oops tits![]() ![]() I thought it looked odd there was this guy I didn't recognize sitting in the driver's seat. There was a sports car parked beneath the street lamp. I heard the car pull up at the curb, and looked out through the blinds of my bedroom window. I didn't even know she had been out on a date until the guy dropped her off in front of the house. That all came crashing down late one night in the second semester of my senior year. In my mind, it was because those guys invariably wanted to have sex with her, and that was the end of it. I made the mistake of thinking of my beautiful sister as some sort of bastion of chastity because she didn't have any long-lasting relationships. She just never had a steady boyfriend in high school or those first two years of college. She worked as a cashier at the cafeteria. She attended college locally and she had a part-time job on campus. My sister was the embodiment of female perfection in my mind.Īfter she graduated from high school, Melanie still lived at home. I was convinced her breasts must be perfect, even though I hadn't ever seen them. She always wore a bra until she went into her room and "dressed for bed," but I never really saw her then. Melanie dressed conservatively, even around the house. It wasn't like I was watching myself watching her, if that makes sense. ![]() I'm not saying I did that, because quite frankly I don't know. I just count myself fortunate that she never caught me staring and drooling like an idiot. It was impossible for me to ignore her impressive chest. My older sister, Melanie, had developed early. If you have an attractive older sister with big tits, you've been keenly aware of it for years. I've read some of these stories, and I can never buy it when some guy says, "My sister was gorgeous, but I just never looked at her 'that way' before," or "I was shocked to realize my sister had such big tits." Give me a break. Thanks again to my friends who reviewed this story and provided such timely feedback. Any resemblance to actual persons living, dead or undead is purely coincidental.

And even the iPads that do work with Apple Pencils don't support both versions - only one Apple Pencil version is compatible with any given iPad. Not every iPad supports the Apple Pencil. What iPads are compatible with the Apple Pencil? The Apple Pencil can do anything that your fingers can do. It can also be a good substitute when you don't want to use your fingers in general - maybe you're wearing heavy gloves, or have ink on your fingers. The Pencil is also great for popular rhythm games like Osu! and VOEZ, which require the player to tap tiny buttons in time with music. If you have iPadOS 14 or later, you can even handwrite in any text field and have your writing converted into typed text.Īrt apps like Procreate and Clip Studio Paint feel entirely new when you have a good stylus to draw with - especially one with both pressure and tilt sensors.

If you've thrown it away or otherwise can't find your spare nib, you can pick up a set of replacement tips from the Apple Store. If you haven't thrown it away, you can find the spare nib inside the paper sleeve (along with a Lightning adapter that allows you to plug your Pencil into a standard Lightning cord). Where can you get replacement Apple Pencil tips?įirst and foremost: Your Apple Pencil comes with one free nib replacement in its original box and packaging. If your Pencil shows up as connected to your iPad but you can't make drawing work, consider replacing the nib before getting into more complex troubleshooting scenarios. While I've never had this happen to me, I've heard of a few (very rare) cases where a direct drop on concrete flattened the nib enough that it no longer registered when drawing. In rare cases, you might damage the Pencil nib to the extent where it no longer functions as a capacitative stylus, effectively "breaking" the tool. Though I've never worn a nib down to the extent where using it damaged my tablet, I'd still advise against using a Pencil with a physically rough nib on your iPad's screen. If the nib feels overly rough or sandpaper-like in any way, you've worn down the plastic and might want to start thinking about a replacement. ![]() When a nib is really worn (or it's been damaged due to a drop or excessive wear), you'll be able to feel it by running a finger over the tip of your Apple Pencil. (Alternatively, for those who feel the Pencil is too slippery, wearing down the nib might actually make it feel better when drawing on your screen.) Finish ![]() Don't worry, unless there's actual finish damage (more on this in a moment), this roughness won't hurt your screen that said, it may change the way you draw on the iPad and you might not like it as much. FeelĪs your nib wears down, it might feel a bit rougher when drawing on your iPad. If you're debating whether to replace your Apple Pencil nib, the biggest reasons to do so are feel, finish, and functionality. This process won't dramatically alter your Pencil experience on the iPad, either: The tip gets a little rougher and larger, but you'll still have full functionality. This process isn't quick, however: I've owned (and pretty regularly used) Apple's stylus since 2015, and I've only replaced two nibs in its lifetime. As you sketch or write on your iPad, pressing against your screen will slowly wear down and widen the Pencil tip. 12/4/2023 0 Comments Buddy 125 scooter battery![]() ![]() Throughout this review I will compare the Buddy to the Yamaha Vino. Founded in 1964, PGO manufactured components for Piaggio from 1972 to 1982 and has won numerous quality awards. The Buddy is manufactured in Taiwan by PGO. If the history of the Stella is any indication, we can expect a fine assortment of accessories for the Buddy. The introduction of the Buddy adds a “new school” automatic scooter to compliment the established “old school” manual shift Stella line. The metal-bodied 2-stroke Stella is a wonderful scooter ( I own a red 2005) and Genuine Scooter Company has built up quite a fan base. Both Scooterworks USA and Genuine Scooter Company have been resounding successes and an absolute boon to the US scootering market. Around Christmas of 2002, he announced Genuine Scooter Company and the Stella scooter. Philip started Scooterworks USA in 1989 and that company quickly became THE source for scooter parts and service. The Buddy is marketed by Genuine Scooter Company of Chicago Illinois, the brain-child of Philip McCaleb. This two-wheeled Buddy is doing it’s best to take over Gilligan’s spot in my brain. I’m sorry, it’s really just a function of my age and late 1960s television. “Buddy” brings visions of The Skipper and Gilligan. OK, I need to get this out of my system…. It is available in black, red, orange, seafoam green, light blue & white. It has a two-year warranty and two-year roadside assistance. The Genuine Buddy 125cc now has an MSRP of $2,699. Click on the image above or CLICK HERE to get more info. The Buddy is being offered in a 50cc 2-stroke version with a price of about $1,900 and a 125cc 4-stroke version for about $2,500. we do all love The Stella, don’t we? Hmmm, my wife could have had a Stella, and she picked a Vino instead, my friend Camille went with a Venice, OK – maybe there really are “other” scooters in the world aside from The Stella.Īpparently Phil at Genuine realized this ( long before I did) and has expanded his offerings with some high quality automatic scooters ( see also The Black Cat) According Bob at Scooterville, the Buddy is a lower seat height than The Stella – which should make for a better fit in the under-31-inch-inseam crowd. They have fairly small tires so depending on how it's ridden I've seen them need rears in 3-4k.We all love The Stella…. If it runs and rides good, this will probably not be an issue any time soon. Carb replacement is not common but carb cleaning is often necessary if it sits a while or isn't winterized correctly. If it requires a little blip of the throttle to get it started, that's nothing to worry about. If the battery's not in great shape, you'll see it when you go to start it.Ĭracks in the rubber on the tires is a big one, lot of people have old tires on there, you can use that as a negotiating point. That's a thing to do with the electrical design of the bike, not the condition of the bike. As long as the headlight comes on while it's running, it's fine. I'm not sure if the Buddy 125s have the headlight on when the engine is not running. Battery electrodes, for example, are probably not gonna be in bad shape either way because the bike just isn't that old. That's a pretty exhaustive list, some things that I wouldn't say are even that necessary. On a healthy scoot the headlight stay on without the engine running but the key in the on position Has the carburetor been replaced recently?ĭid the previous owner properly winterize it? is there tread? is the rubber dry and cracked? does the battery sound lively? does the engine take right away?

12/3/2023 0 Comments Conservation of gorillasThey are regurgitation and reingestion, coprophagy (eating feces) and urine drinking. These behaviors are natural, though not to humans. There are three feeding behaviors sometimes observed in gorillas in human care that can bother visitors. Some of the gorillas favorite browse options are Bradford pear, willow, mulberry with berries and maple. Morning and evening foods include chow, greens, fruits and vegetables.įorage items placed in hay for the gorillas include popcorn, sunflower seeds, peanuts, "enrich bits," beans and diced fruits and vegetables. In the afternoon, individuals are separated so each animal gets its share of preferred food items. In the summer, this is usually done in the yard. Food items are cut up and spread over a wide area. Females eat about two-thirds of that amount.Īt the Smithsonian's National Zoo, the group is fed together in the morning. Adult male gorillas eat about 45 pounds (32 kilograms) of food per day. Gorillas get some protein from invertebrates found on leaves and fruits. Other gorilla subspecies eat proportionally less fruit. They also eat the fleshy fruits of close to a hundred seasonally fruiting tree species. Gorillas are primarily herbivorous, eating the leaves and stems of herbs, shrubs and vines. Like other primates, each individual has distinctive fingerprints. Gorillas' arms are longer than their legs when they move on all fours, they knuckle-walk, supporting their weight on the third and fourth digits of their curled hands. In comparison to the mountain gorilla, the western lowland gorilla has a wider and larger skull, and their big toe is spread apart more from the alignment of the other four toes. Adult female gorillas also have these crests, but they are much less pronounced. These crests anchor the massive muscles used to support and operate their large jaws and teeth. ![]() They also have a differently shaped nose and lip than other subspecies.Īdult male gorillas' heads look conical due to the large bony crests on the top and back of the skull. Compared to other subspecies, western lowland gorillas have a more pronounced brow ridge and ears that appear small in relation to their heads. ![]() Western lowland females may go gray below the ears and on the neck and top of the head as they age. In western lowland gorillas, the silver may extend to rump and thighs. Mature silverback males have a saddle of white hair across the small of their backs. The white patch helps the mother keep track of the infant and assists other group members in identifying the gorilla as an infant. A small white tuft of hair on their rump distinguishes infants up to four years old. Western lowland gorillas may have a more brownish coloration. Short, thin, gray-black to brown-black hair covers the entire body except the face. |
