I m looking to use fabric paint to make a logo-type design on a shirt and hat. The design consists of a white circle with a colored symbol over it.

Can I simply do the white circle, let it dry, then do the symbol over it? Do I need to heat-set between each color, or only after the logo is done?

We just remodeled a bathroom a few weeks ago, which included a new toilet with new guts (professionally installed), including a Fluidmaster 300 series valve. But it's got this one quirk I can't figure out how to fix.

If the tank recently filled, when you flush, it will refill just fine. However, if the tank has been sitting filled for a while, when you flush, the float piece (whatever they call the replacement for the ballcock) will remain stuck in the up position, preventing it from refilling the tank. I can take the lid off and nudge the thing down without much effort and it will refill fine, but this is getting old to do.

Everything I'm finding online hat talks about this situaiton is in reference to a really old valve, not a brand-new one. Any suggestions on what to try?

I just recently bought a 2005 Toyota Camry LE from a state that doesn't have to worry about getting below freezing for more than a night. However, I live in the Midwest US, where snow and ice accumulates a lot and roads get salted. I know some cars anymore have underbodies made of materials like stainless steel that don't need the undercoating protection, but I haven't been able to find anything online that gives me this detail.

Does anyone know what the underbody of a 2005 Toyota Camry LE is made of?

As an experienced gamer, but brand new to D&D itself, I just want to make sure I'm not missing something important in my levelling plans for my rogue. Not really worrying about sketching in a secondary class at the moment (though it likely will be Wizard with mostly non-combat spells in Transmutation, Illusion, and Divination).

Elf Rogue

Str: 13

Dex: 20

Con: 13

Int: 14

Wis: 12

Cha: 8

(Yes, I did roll ridiculously well overall)

Primary weaponry: Daggers (dual-wielding at level 3)

Feats and Skill:

lvl1: Weapon Finesse

lvl3: 2-Weapon Fighting

lvl6: Imp 2-Weapon Fighting

lvl9: Blind Fighting

lvl10: Crippling Strike

lvl12: Imp Crit

lvl13: Skill Mastery

lvl15: Grtr 2-Weapon Fighting

lvl16: Opportunist

lvl18: ???

lvl19: ???

As I have it figured, I'll have in most cases 7 attacks and Sneak Attack lvl 8 at XP level 15, which should put out some ridiculous amounts of damage on anything Sneak Attack can apply to.

I had been thinking of picking up Improved Evasion, but I read somewhere that it was practically useless, as you shouldn't be failing Reflex Saves much at all by the point you can pick it up anyway. Defensive Roll looks powerful when it comes into play, but is extremely limited in usability.

Any suggestions?

Anyone know any way to programmatically simulate a touch event on an Android phone?

Here's a deck I've been running in Standard casual (games, not matches) for a while. Thoughts?

12 Forests

8 Swamps

1 Island

1 Plains

1 Mountain

4 Prophetic Prism

4 Wurmcoil Engine

4 Acidic Slime

4 Rune-Scarred Demon

1 Artisan of Kozilek

1 Umalog the Infinite Gyre

3 Black Sun Zenith

4 Consuming Vapors

4 Cultivate

4 Preator's Grasp

4 Rampant Growth

I'm looking for a Need for Speed game that has a car with the same body style as my own (2009 Honda Civic). Anyone know if any of these games have it? Some of them have older Civics, but not the newer design.

Any suggestions for this deck? Basic Idea is stall to Venser, then use him to bounce opposing creatures back with Aether Adept, Pull killed creatures of mine back out with Sun Titan, or card draw with Wall of Omens. Once I get the Emblem, just have Aether Adept bounce itself for a 3-mana "Exile target permanent", with Contagion Engine and Thrummingbird there to help Venser get powered up.

Mana:

Islands - 8

Plains - 9

Glacial Fortress - 4

Tectonic Edge - 2

Everflowing Chalice - 4

Creatures:

Wall of Omens - 4

Aether Adept - 4

Augury Owl - 3

Guard Gomazoa - 3

Thrummingbird - 3

Sun Titan - 3

Planeswalkers:

Venser the Sojourner - 4

Others:

Contagion Engine - 3

Leyline of Sanctity - 2

Journey to Nowhere - 4

Ignoring JTMS (whose price is just ridiculous), any suggestions on how to improve this deck? Basic idea is to stall/card draw until I can power up Pyromancer's Ascension and cycle Call to Minds with a damage spell, or just pop a big Eldrazi (which are mainly there for mill protection). My main problems seem to be mana color balance and all the enchantment control around currently. This is for Standard.

Mana sources:

Island - 9

Mountain - 10

Scalding Tarn - 1 (will swap out Islands and Mountains for more when I get them)

Tectonic Edge - 4

Everflowing Chalice - 3

Creatures:

Kozilek, Butcher of Truth - 1

Emrakul, the Aeon's Torn - 1

Planeswalkers:

Jace Beleren - 4

Others:

Pyromancer's Ascension - 4

Spawning Breath - 3

Lightning Bolt - 4

Burst Lightning - 4

Staggershock - 4

Call to Mind - 4

Into the Roil - 4

I'm a big fan of the Bleach opening song Rolling Star, by Yui. But from what I understand, that song has a much harder edge than the rest of her work. So I was wondering if anyone could give suggestions for groups with a sound that is consistent with Rolling Star.

Anyone know any really searchable card databases for magic? Like for example, I'm wanting to find if there are any Ala-block Naya-color 5 mana cards with Cascade.

Anyone know a place like that?

I ran into an odd situation on Magic the Gathering Online last night while playing in a booster draft against a friend. The situation seems like a bug to us, and was caused by my own miscalculation, but it ended up winning me the game (though I still lost the match).

I attacked with a non-flying creature that is normally 2/2, but had been pumped up to 4/4 through Devour. The creature also has the ability to be given Trample, but I did not use it. My friend blocked with a non-flying, non-reach creature that starts out as a 1/1 with Shroud that gains a +1/+1 token every time a creature is put into a graveyard, and had thusly been pumped up to 7/7. After defenders had been declared, but before damage was dealt, I played an instant that gave my creature flying until end of turn. (I had meant to do that before defenders were declared, but had a brain fart and did not do that in the pre-combat phase.) I was not entirely sure how this would be resolved, but I expected that since defenders had been declared already, the 4/4 and the 7/7 would trade damage normally and the flight was thus meaningless.

The creatures did indeed trade damage. However, for no reason either of us can think of (and this situation did not seem to be covered in the comprehensive rulebook online), both the 4/4 and the 7/7 died.

Any ideas if there is a rule regarding non-fliers who don't have reach blocking non-fliers that become fliers before damage is dealt?

Ok. I'm fairly new to the whole cat keeping deal. Had my girl for about 9 months now. She was 2 years old when I got her, but spent about 6 months of that living with me as well (her previous owner was a roommate of mine).

I managed to trim her claws once, but she put up quite a fight about it, and it took me most of the day to manage it with all the chasing her down, letting her calm down, etc. As such, I try not to do it unless I have to. Now I need to do it again, as she's starting to cut herself inside the ear when she scratches.

But how can I get her to settle down? She doesn't like being held (though she's otherwise quite affectionate and open to any attention), and she doesn't like anyone touching her paws. So to her, the entire idea goes against her nature. And I don't have anyone to help me hold her down. The vet did it last time she was there, and said she was nice and calm through it, so it makes me wonder if something about the way I'm holding her toes is hurting her or something.

Any ideas?
