  • Does Universal Studios Orlando and Islands of Adventure sell an Express Pass as well as the Express Plus Pass?

    If so, what are the differences between the two passes? I can only find information on-line about Express 'Plus' passes. Is the Express Pass only sold from within the park?

  • Can I use engineered I-joists to help box out basement duct work?

    It just so happens that the duct work in my basement drops down around 8 inches from the ceiling. I am finishing my basement, and I want to box out the duct work with drywall on both sides and the bottom of the duct work. A 9-1/2 inch side wall dropped from the ceiling will do the trick to get to the bottom of the ducts. Then I can run horizontal lumber to finish the box out around my duct work. My question is whether I can use engineered I-joists for this drop will from the ceiling. I-joists conveniently come in 9-1/2 inch heights. But, I do not know whether these joists can work in tension: that is, where weight is trying to pull them apart rather than their usual application of working in compression where weight is trying to push it together. Has anybody used these in this type of application before?

  • Bowflex Power Rod Upgrade?

    Bowflex has two different 100 lb power rod upgrade options for the Xtreme home gym that I have (with 210 lbs presently): One to go from 210 lb to 310 lb, and another to go from 310 lb t0 410 lb. What is the difference between these two 100 lb upgrades? I ask this because the latter upgrade is ten dollars cheaper than the other upgrade on Amazon.com, but I don't want to buy it if it will not work until i buy the initial upgrade.

  • Importance of a level hot water tank?

    I had a friend install a new 60 gallon gas-heated hot water tank for our household use. He must have had some issue with the tank while installing it because he knocked away some of the leveling shims that were under the tank. Now the new tank is out of level, and it is leaning such that the top of the tank is two inches over from the base of a 5 foot tall tank. The instructions clearly said the tank should be installed level, but now all the plumbing is hooked up and the tank is full of hot water. Should I go through the effort of draining the tank and trying to level it? Or, is it okay as is? What issues could I have later if it stands as is?
