Yeah this is pretty regular for wilderness rescue. Also just think about getting a stretcher to a remote location over rocks, looks, etc.

At best it's slowed down, at worst you have to switch out porters of the stretcher every 10 minutes or something to keep the injured moving out ASAP.

Like you said how close is an ambulance, how close to a spot the helicopter lands.

An absolute logistical nightmare that fortunately they are prepared for!

No matter what waiver was signed it wouldn't absolve the person running the group of negligence.

It could be argued that the group leader was negligent, could be not advising well the dangers. I have no idea but negligence is still very much on the table for a civil suit at the least.

For anyone looking in the future, almost no one at Drury pays full tution. Nearly every student gets robust scholarships outside or through the school.

Get good grades, save $1000/semester probably more.

Step 2.1 capture racoons.

Step 2.2 release racoons into neighbors attic.

Step 2.3 start racoon trapping service

Step 2.4 repeat.

Yeah I agree that's probably wrong. MSU total students are 26k, Evangel 2k, Drury 2k, OTC total is 11k but there's a lot of online and satellite locations. I'd guess more like 35k, but 40k isn't out of reason.

Didn't include other bible collages or the odd for profit ones, I can't imagine there's another 1k hiding in all of them.

That being said, it's a good point if we have roughly 40k students in a population of 160k, that means 25% of our population counted are college students, many of whom are very under employed making part time money skewing the average way down. Probably the same reason Columbia is right there with us.

Oh boy, escrow payments went up crazy 2 years ago I think when the sps bond issue passed.

It is what it is, inflation means while you pay more in actual dollars, the value should be the same unless increased tax percentage.

Very well could be state mandated timing, I've never heard of anyone around here doing anything different. But I could be wrong.

This is good advice for all home diy. Very few things you can't do yourself with enough time and effort to learn.

I mean you can use literally anything, more wood shims, these, steel.

Do you know how big the gap is? You might just call up a metal fab shop and ask how much it would be to cut you a 10-20 4"x4" squares of 20 gauge metal.

However no matter what shim what you go with, you must jack up the beam so you can fit the shims in, no way to get them in to do work without jacking up with beam slightly (1/16" maybe more)

Unless you're on google maps, or similar. You've never seen it. It's very far from any road that's not a driveway.

Also the driveway is off division, house is on Pearson Creek.

Same, I'm happy for it as well. Visited a few times now, those potato fries have to be the #1 I've had outside of maybe steak escape from the 90s.

Yeah boutiques seem like the only ones who had been able to sustain the model downtown. But most have left for greener pastures.

I would love to see more options, but I don't know how you create the draw. I'm confident the downtown association has talked this to death but I'm still not sure how we get there.

Pretty much anything would be better than rodent infested, condemned, falling down building. Even just grass.

But seriously now, is retail a bad thing downtown? If anything I don't think we have enough retail down there actually selling and keeping people walking around. Maybe 10 shops regularly open at most for retail sales?

Second space is at a premium in denser neighborhoods, because of that if you think you can get the same bed/bath and square footage as somewhere not as dense, it's not practical. So yeah lofts downtown are probably +20% for the same apartment size you'd get on Kansas and Sunshine, but the land bought to turn into lofts is likely more than 20% more downtown anyways.

You're not wrong, but I keep seeing Fred Armisen.

Having taken it, people in the class were all over. People who have been riding 20 years without an endorsement (and finally got caught). Down to, I'm pretty sure this 80 year old has never been on even a bicycle.

You start on with motors off for at least an hour pushing the damn thing around.

I'm confident your average 12 year old could get their license and familiarity after those 3 days.

Meaningless and unhelpful advice?

OP said "if only it were that easy", my comment is about inspiring to actually make the change they want to see.

To your point if OP is looking for somewhere warm tonight I don't think they would be focused on religious v secular, but anything warm. My assumption was OP is looking for a good cause to support and/or volunteer. If I'm wrong and you're right, your comment is entirely valid. But I haven't seen any responses from OP except the one I responded to that we're discussing.

Oh who knows, this isn't the first time and it won't be the last.

It wasn't sarcasm, it wasn't poking fun, truly that statement was encouraging that we can all start organizations and affect positive change. You don't need deep pockets, you don't need social capital, all you need is positive passion to do something good, you put a crazy amount of time and effort to get donations, and get like-minded people on board.

This is the simple blueprint almost every nonprofit starts with. Have a good idea, and effort.

Edit: I love that you got downvoted for asking lol.

Just time and effort. If you have the passion it can be done.

That only applies to HOAs. The vast majority of us who own homes DO have to call and pay for trash service.

Okay so this is a tough pill to swallow, but a quick fb marketplace search tells me that even if you replace the engine for $6000, you might have a car that would in perfect condition, maybe, sell for $9000. If it has normal wear that one would expect from a 15 year old car maybe $7000?

I'm just saying, $6000 would be a terrible investment, you'd be better parting it out, or selling it not running for $1000-$2000.

Not to go all Dave Ramsey, but it sounds like you need to get a more reliable or cheaper to maintain vehicle. RX8 or anything rotary is not that.

I doubt you have many Chipotle corporate shills in a medium city size subreddit.

That being said, also bullying, not illegal.

Yeah it's discrimination, but it's legal discrimination. The same way a business can discriminate against you if you wear hats, wearing hats aren't a protected class, therefore legal for the discrimination.

The only way to change that is to bring suit against the business, unlikely to win, or have state/federal legislation to write in a law.

Both of which have an incredibly low chance of success.

Yeah this matters, more and more I'm meeting and thinking about direct primary care. More time spent with a doctor with a more traditional care taken to understand and solve the problem.

Rather than what most of us are used to good Ng to typical offices.

You realize, to bring in large manufacturing, requires a lot of space for those buildings, lots of space isn't had in town, so they will need to take "natural space' as you put it and develop it into buildings, parking, roads, etc.

Just pointing out you can't have high economic drive, especially in manufacturing without urbanizing.

Maybe?
