Some have heard that if you need nursing home care and run out of the money, the nursing home will take your home away. This isnât true. But your home can be lost, especially if you havenât planned in advance. Let me explain how this works. A nursing home canât âgo afterâ a personâs home or other assets.
The handles of a pair of oars should overlap by 4 inches, that is, the inboard portion of each is 2 inches longer than half the distance between the rowlocks. The distance between the rear edge of the rower's seat and the rowlocks should be about the distance between the inside of the rower's wrist and the inside of the elbow.
An oar is an implement used for water-borne propulsion. Oars have a flat blade at one end. Oarsmen grasp the oar at the other end. The difference between oars and paddles are that paddles are held by the paddler, and are not connected with the vessel. Oars generally are connected to the vessel by means of rowlocks or tholes which transmit the applied force to the boat. In this system the water is the fulcrum. Oarsmen generally face the stern of the vessel, reach as far as they can towards the stern, and insert the blade of their oar in the water.
