You can see what I mean in this screenshot. The long post title causes the floating title area to be around 1/4 of my screen. I feel like a way to collapse or hide that area is needed. (Note: the double-up-arrows chevron scrolls to the top of the page. I had thought it would collapse the area.)

Hi all,
I'm looking for someone in DC who has a copy of Gloomhaven.
I have my own copy, but I also have 5 friends who want to play. We're looking to get started with a campaign and it would be nice if we could have two games running simultaneously for at least the first day if you'd be able to join us.
Looking to have a game day on May 7 to get kicked off.
Hi everyone!
I'm planning to buy my wife a wheel and some supplies for her birthday and surprise her with a little workspace. She loves to throw but getting to a studio has been inconvenient/impossible for a while.
We have a spare bedrooms, but we currently use it a little bit for storage. I'm thinking that pottery can often involve a lot of dust and mess. Can a workshop be carved out from a room practically by hanging plastic sheets or a tarp?
What sort of ventilation should I be thinking of in general? Do I need to think about getting a vent hood? Should I budget for a shop vac?
This is the wheel I'm looking at currently: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0009F76BM/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1434
Hi all,
My commuter has been getting repeated slow flats for a couple of months now. I have Armadillo tires, and I've been used to not getting flats basically ever unless I ride over something major, and can usually find the cause embedded in the tire.
I've taken my wheel to the shop with flats 3 times now in the past month, trying to get them to help me diagnose these, and they keep checking and it saying it's fine. It stays inflated with a new tube for a week or so, so it seems to be fixed. I take my bike out though, and then the next day it's flat. We hunt down the leaks and it's on the outside of the tube so it's not anything on the rim, but we haven't found anything in the tire when w
Hi all,
I'm currently trying to shrink my board game collection, but I've been wanting to get a copy of "Roll Through the Ages". These are unfortunately mutually exclusive goals, unless I trade for it rather than buy. ;)
I'd ideally like to trade a small game for it, so that we don't get hit by too high a shipping fee.
Here are some games on my trade list that might be comparable:
- Battle Line (Played once)
- Gauntlet of Fools (Kickstarter version, played twice)
- Gunrunners (Kickstarter version, played once)
- Innovation (Played once)
- New York (Unopened)
- Pirates vs. Dinosaurs (Kickstarver version, unopened)
- String Railway (Played once)
- The Struggle for Catan (Played once)
- Zog
I was looking into buying Lost Cities, but have quickly gotten confused looking into the options.
Apparently there is:
- Lost Cities (the 2 player card game)
- Lost Cities: The Board Game (2-5 players, is it as good with 2 players as the card game is?)
- Keltis (similar to LC:TBG, but shorter and has different expansions printed on the back?)
Any advice?
This is probably not interesting to most people, but I've been dwelling on this since last night and I hope that public penance will help me move past it.
It was just a silly league game we were going to lose anyway, but my defender ran under me and made a great D. I've been going over and over in my head how much contact there was, but in hindsight if it even happened, it was clearly clearly incidental. In the heat of the moment though, I called foul and I very much wish I had backed down now when my defender said it was a clean D.
So, at this point it's too late to change what I did, all I can do is try to do better next time. I'll just have to remember how hard it is to back down after
Is there some sort of rule of thumb about what an acceptable percentage is to get broken if you're marking "well?" (and does it change if the handler has good break throws?)
I played a guy today that seemed like he could break the mark at will... quite frustrating. I like to think I can usually keep a force on.
I know there's a lot of controversy about fouling, some people think any contact and others would prefer some physicality.
To start some discussion, how about some "hypothetical" situations:
-
You and your defender are both cutting for a disc that is far enough that a catch is uncertain, but you think you have a play at it. As you're running, defender trips up your feet. Foul?
-
Your defender has better position than you, but you manage to go up and get your hand on the disc somehow. Contact occurs, causing you to drop the disc. Foul?
-
Defender makes a huge play on you (hypothetical, remember?), but doesn't catch his D. On the second effort you have a shot, but he comes down on you p
I live in a studio condo. It has pretty large horizontal sliding windows along a wall, and I keep my bed in the corner with my head near the window.
The glass itself seems to do a pretty good job of insulation, but the aluminum fittings on the bottom seem to just radiate cold on chill nights. If I throw a towel on the sill and against the bottom of the window, it seems to do a reasonable job of warming things up.
Is there a better, more permanent way of improving the insulation though, while still keeping the ability to open the windows?
It's so nice to be able to watch all the first round Aussie matches, in split screen.
I'll stop sounding like a Microsoft spokesperson now, but I'm pretty pleased.
This weekend I managed to knock the disc out of my own hand while ground-checking the disc to put it into play.
Probably just about the worst feeling ever. :)
Anyone else have silly mistakes they want to rant about?

I'm attempting to do Low Bar squats.
Questions:
-
Why does everyone in RL hate Low Bar? Well, not hate, but most of the guys in the gym haven't heard of them (except a Crossfitter who was the first to suggest I switch to Low bar in the first place). One guy told me Low Bar would "wreck my back" and this wasn't based on watching my form, it was just his belief about Low Bar vs High Bar in general.
-
I'm pretty sure I'm leaning too far forward occasionally and sometimes fall into the "doing a good morning" trap. I'm just not very clear how much of a lean is too much, since a lean is expected in the Low Bar style. The last couple reps are pretty
For some reason, I have a really hard time keeping my lower back from rounding, even though I feel like I'm completely focusing on trying to keep my back arched.
I'd appreciate any critiques for the following video. Actually, the rounding isn't as bad as it normally is in the videos (I think), but hopefully there's something there to see that will help.
How do I get better at "running really fast" and then recovering?
I've been playing Ultimate Frisbee recreationally for the past season. Ultimate is awesome, but it requires a ton of running, and I'm blown out for minutes anytime I sprint after the disk or have to chase after another player who makes a deep cut.
My question is how can I improve my stamina in a deliberate way? My current method is to just "play more ultimate or tennis." I am making slow progress, at the start of the season I was basically dead for the entire second half of a game, and I can now keep going fairly well as long as I can substitute out occasionally. I feel like I may never get to where I want to be though. I w
