As good as the food is, I’m more impressed by how much money they’re spending heating their patio. It was in the 40’s the other night and I was totally comfortable sitting on the side patio.

If you don’t mind me asking, what sorts of classes did you take in high school?
In my experience (as both their classmate and as a TA) the difference between AP/IB kids and everyone else coming into introductory level college classes is pretty staggering, especially when it comes to avoiding plagiarism, in text citations, using reliable sources, etc.

Putting lost items at eye level (on a fence, gate, etc) so people have an easier time spotting them is common practice everywhere I’ve been in the country. Your car is much more likely to be broken into by someone breaking a window to grab change than by someone testing every parking lot along a 15 mile trail.
You are really paranoid.

I carry my house and car keys on the same ring. I’d have my car keys with me on the bike path to get back into my house, but I wouldn’t notice they were gone until I got home.

It’s a bike path, not an out and back trail with a trailhead. A thief would have to check every trailhead on the path and that’s assuming it wasn’t someone commuting via bike.
I’d much rather someone put my keys where I could backtrack and find them than take them to a random police station.

Why wouldn’t you? Keys lost on a trail aren’t really of any value to a thief - they don’t know which car or house they unlock or where that is.

Agreed re: just drive slower and leave plenty of space.
I didn’t have snow tires on the front range of Colorado (awd car) and did fine. You definitely don’t need them here.

If you’re going to bike at night, bright ass headlights and taillights are a worthwhile investment. RIP

If you’ve already got a 3/2 and plan to surf in the winter I’d focus my money on getting a quality 5/4. The thicker the rubber the nicer it is to have the high end stretchy stuff.
You can make a 3/2 work with accessories until it’s time to go 5/4. A 4/3 is nice, but it’s not a necessity IMO.

>APD requires 23 weeks of classroom training, and an additional 12 weeks of field training. Our training includes vital areas like de-escalation techniques, mental health, community-oriented-policing, crisis intervention training as well as Civil Rights history education. This training needs space, and that’s exactly what this training center is going to offer.
All of that training is possible in any classroom or community center.
Also, wow, 35 weeks. What a rigorous training program.
