I VOLUNTEER BECAUSE… I know how it feels to be different
This is Chris' testimonial. Christ is a Senior Project Worker at Brighton YMCA. Chris gave us the perspective of a staff member who has consistently volunteered for the past 15 years.
'We often think clients need to volunteer to show purposeful activity when they want to move on to less supported accommodation. At Brighton YMCA we have many staff who also volunteer in the community.'
'I have been a volunteer at Allsorts Youth Project for 15 years. Allsorts is a drop in for LGBTU young people up to the age of 25. The U in LGBTU stands for unsure and this is core to the work of the charity.'
'I volunteer because as a young person I was very unsure of my sexuality and future. I remember what it was like to be at school and not knowing or understanding why I was different to others.'
'Volunteering is a chance for us all to put something back into that community that helped us in our journey through life. We all have a different obstacle on the way. For some it could be drugs, alcohol, sexual health, mental health, disability, homelessness – just to name a few.'

Synopsis by Paul Brenner
Robert Aldrich (Kiss Me Deadly) directed this cloak-and-dagger yarn (based on a bestseller by Leon Uris), filmed on sumptuous locations in Greece. Set in Athens in 1941, before the Nazis overran the country, Robert Mitchum plays American war correspondent Mike Morrison, who has come into the possession of a list of 16 Greek underground leaders that he agrees to deliver to British intelligence in London for a $20,000 fee. Trying to keep him from getting there is the local Gestapo chief Conrad Heisler (Stanley Baker) and fifth columnist Tassos (Theodore Bikel). Morrison also becomes involved with a group of Greek freedom fighters -- particularly the beautiful Eleftheria (Gia Scala). But then Morrison comes down from the mountains and back to Athens, where he finds himself trailed, not only by the Nazis, but by charming widow Lisa Kyriakides (Elisabeth Muller).

I listened to Denny Experimental Brew podcast and he recommends the Hydra wort chiller (see link below). As a former Florida resident, I wished I had this product. I bought this last winter and it's definitely worth it. Here in Iowa, it get to 90 degrees. But, now I can get my wort down to 60 degrees in 12-15 minutes.The procedure is use this wort chiller to get the wort down to the temperature of the hose water. Then, using the immersion pump (see link below) submerged in ice water, pump thru the chiller to get down to temp. Jiust me 2 cents worth.https://jadedbrewing.com/products/the-hydrahttps://www.menards.com/main/plumbing/pumps-well-tanks/sump-utility-pumps/barracuda-reg-1-4-hp-thermoplastic-submersible-utility-pump/p-1444428713624-c-1474908537231.htm
I live near Atlanta and during the summer it's impossible to get wort cool enough using just tap. Bought a small submersible pump from harbor freight for about 20 bucks and put some qd's on my immersion chiller hoses. Put the pump in a cooler drop a bag of ice in and I'm down to pitching temps pdq.

Daydreaming Through Conversation
Author: Miztrebor
Have you ever Loved the Universe
And the girl that it was in?
Have you ever looked into her eyes
And felt those tears begin?
Have you ever wondered what shes thinking
Is she thinking of him?
No youre caught in the beauty
But youre looking past her skin
Looking past her body, her vessel
Gazing at the spirit within:
A wild horse running
Around you with a grin
She plays around, a test
Are you worthy to win
To be in her heart
To behold of her gin
Her intoxicating presence
Now she turns a fin
And swims up to the heavens
Shes a goddess going on her way

Here's a great Mother's day idea! Create a one of a kind
sketch/notebook for the mothers in your life.
The mini sketch/notebook I created by embellishing
pre bound sketchbooks that are 3x5- 50lb weight paper
with 100 micro perforated sheets. They're the perfect size
to carry in your purse. I always carry my favorite
drawing pencil and fine black pen in my purse but
I never have paper (I've been known to draw on
napkins or whatever scrap paper
I find in my purse LOL). I'm excited to
have my own snazzy mini sketchbook now :-)
3 of the books I used background paper I created
using my Electric Neon Color Mists,

By ANIRUDDHA GHOSAL and JULHAS ALAM Associated Press
NEW DELHI (AP) — A powerful cyclone plowed inland on Wednesday after crashing into the coasts of India and Bangladesh, where more than 2.6 million people fled to shelters in a frantic evacuation made all the more challenging by the coronavirus pandemic.
Cyclone Amphan, the equivalent of a category 3 hurricane, was packing sustained winds of up to 105 miles per hour with maximum gusts of 118. Authorities warned it could cause extensive damage to flimsy houses and a storm surge could push seawater 15 miles inland, flooding cities including Kolkata.
Coconut trees swayed wildly, electric poles lay scattered on the roads of Kolkata, rain pounded fishing villages, and rivers surged as the storm battered coastal areas. Thousands of home were damaged and river embankments were washed away. "The next 24 hours are very crucial. This is a long haul," said M. Mohapatra, India's meteorological chief.
The region, with 58 million people in the two bordering countries, has some of the most vulnerable communities in South Asia: poor fishing communities in the Sunderbans and over a million Rohingya refugees living in crowded camps in Cox's Bazar in Bangladesh.
A woman crushed by a tree and a 13-year-old girl killed near Kolkata were among the first deaths reported in India before phone connectivity snapped. In southern Bangladesh, a volunteer in a cyclone preparedness team drowned when a boat capsized in a canal.
The cyclone could endanger India's fight against the coronavirus, with supply lines cut, roads destroyed and lockdown measures slowing relief work, said T. Sundaramanan, a health systems consultant in Pondicherry in southeast India.
Tuhin Ghosh, director of the School of Oceanographic Studies at Jadavpur University, said the pandemic's lockdown has already sapped people's resilience. "Because they are economically down, they are not getting enough food. … When another disaster comes, then it's a double impact."
The cyclone made landfall between Digha, a seaside resort in West Bengal, and the Hatiya Islands in Bangladesh. The eye of the storm was likely to pass through the Sunderbans, one of the largest mangrove forests in the world, India's meteorological department said.
The forests could act as a vital line of defense by dissipating some of the energy from the waves that would otherwise crash into the coastline, said K.J. Ramesh, the department's former chief.
But the isolated communities in the vast mangrove forests are among the most vulnerable. Ghosh said houses could be inundated and mud homes had already washed away.
Bangladesh has evacuated around 2.4 million people to safety. India's West Bengal state moved nearly 300,000 and Odisha state another 148,486, officials said.
Some cyclone shelters in West Bengal were being used to quarantine virus patients and migrant workers returning to their homes. The state government asked for trains transporting migrants to be suspended, Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee said. Some schools were turned into shelters, news reports said.
Some in the cyclone's path saw a choice between the virus and the storm.
In the seaside resort of Digha, many people feared going to the shelters, fisherman Debasis Shyamal said. "They have been home for weeks, and are afraid of going into a crowd where they could get infected."
The densely populated city of Kolkata, which has nearly 1,500 coronavirus cases, was likely to see flooding, while some centuries-old buildings in the northern half of the city could collapse due to the strong winds, officials warned.
___Alam reported from Dhaka, Bangladesh. Associated Press writers Sheikh Saaliq, Emily Schmall and Chonchui Ngashangva in New Delhi contributed to this report.

London, United Kingdom. Counter-terrorism raids continue in the British capital as mourners prepare for funerals in the wake of the London Bridge attacks. The latest news has more arrested in connection with the incident.
There were a number of counter-terrorist special police at two addresses in east London that are being searched by police in connection with Saturday's deadly terror attack in the UK capital. London residents there reported hearing loud flash bangs and gunshots in the early hours of Monday morning.
UK counter-terrorist Police said officers entered properties in Newham and Barking at 0415 on Monday and there were a number of people who have been detained. Taking no chances, London city authorities placed anti-terrorist barriers out overnight on central London bridges while searches were continuing at multiple addresses, police spokesperson Gareth Rafferty added.
It all started when pedestrians were mowed down by a van on London Bridge before attackers stabbed a police officer and revellers around Borough Market with 12-inch knives. An ISIS terrorist shouted 'this is for Allah' as he knifed a man near a pub while the Islamic State militant group claimed its fighters carried out the attack. The terrorists brought carnage to the streets of Britain for the second time in as many weeks, killing seven and leaving 21 fighting for their lives.
Three ISIS terrorists, wearing fake suicide bomb vests, were shot dead by eight officers outside a pub after police opened fire with an 'unprecedented' hail of 50 bullets, while a bystander was also shot.Counter-terrorist officers say they know the identities of the men who carried out the attack and will release the names as soon as operationally possible.
New Scotland Yard said seven women and five men aged between 19 and 60 were arrested under the UK Terrorism Act in Barking on Sunday. A 55-year-old man was later released without charge according to Rafferty.Seven countries cut off diplomatic ties with Qatar

Contemplating credit debt consolidation in Unalaska, Alaska? Know your options in Unalaska, Alaska
Some decide to use balance transfer accounts for consumer credit card debt consolidation, and it's necessary in such cases to make the most of the very low or 0% rate of interest. For this option to work, you probably will not receive a cheaper monthly payment, and you'll need to have a reliable income to coordinate it successfully. The general idea is that you'll save money by not paying interest, with the intention that installments go directly to the principal balance. So, you have to give just as much as you can with each payment. When you apply it right, you can pay back a significant portion of your total debt balances in a much smaller period of time.Read More
Next, there is the solution of applying for a personal unsecured loan for a more affordable rate of interest on credit debt. To get that to work most effectively, you'll need a great credit rating. To increase the savings that you can get, it is better to simply get a faster term. If you blend the minimal-interest rate and the short loan term, you can minimize the interest fee amount that you have to pay over the loan terms. That should improve the overall advantages that you will get from using a personal loan to consolidate your consumer credit card debt.
If your property has an adequate amount of equity, then you can even think about a home equity loan. It will be important for the equity to pay for all your excessive interest rate credit card debt if you want this to work. Furthermore, you should come up with a strategy to assist you to settle the home equity loan. Your property will be taken away if you're unable to pay off this type of loan.
Should you choose debt consolidation in Unalaska, Alaska ?
It simply is practical to consider the pros and cons of debt consolidation before you can decide.
Following are the pros of deciding to consolidate your credit debt.
It simplifies your debt payments. This credit debt strategy merges your numerous debts in to one. This can help you save time and stress on managing many balances. Significantly less effort is needed to coordinate the simplified repayment process.
It helps you to make the most of better terms. The business of consolidation involves several credit balances merged into a completely new agreement. There is no better time to seek better agreements. You may get a quicker payment period or a much more versatile plan. You could save cash on interest fees with a cheaper rate and quicker repayment.
You can get a smaller interest within the newer arrangement. Choosing a cheaper interest rate is an important part of consolidating debts. It is not worth it to consolidate unless you get one. Consolidation is not worthwhile if you are receiving a greater interest rate in the new arrangement.
Concerning the disadvantages, below are the essential ones to keep in mind.
You could feel a false sense of relief from credit card debt. It is true that you're going to free up your lines of credit with consolidation. You will need to remember that your debt still exists, in a different balance, and you've not completed paying it back. You simply merged your debts but you will still owe the very same amount.
It could lead you to more debt. If you yield to the mistaken sense of credit card debt relief, you could be drawn to make use of your credit card. Since you continue to owe the exact same sum, if you add even more on your card, this will only increase your financial debt.
The actual reason behind the issue won't be fixed. Whatever prompted you become so deep into financial debt will not disappear via debt consolidation. You'll still need to address the source. Only the symptoms of your debt are attended to.
Dependant upon the method of debt consolidation you ultimately choose, your assets may be in jeopardy. Many decide to place their properties up as collateral, placing their houses in jeopardy if they are not able to pay. Though home equity will let you find a low interest on the financial loan, it will place your property at risk of being taken away by the loan company.
Application for credit card debt consolidation loan in Unalaska, Alaska
In order to have an understanding of the debt consolidation application process, you must identify your method.
A personal loan debt consolidation strategy will involve submitting an application for the loan as you could with any kind of unsecured loan. You start with turning in your application form, and you will then be approved or rejected according to your credit history. If you are accepted, you start working on the next step in the application and present the information required. You might have the option of utilizing an internet based application and turning in electronic digital versions of your details through e-mail or web site.
After this procedure, the lending company will be able to perform an intensive procedure for underwriting the loan. You will get the loan amount once you have accomplished the task and been approved. Many lenders would require you to open up an account with their organization - this is when they're going to provide you with the money you borrowed.
For individuals who choose a home equity loan, the procedure is exactly like a home loan application. The actual procedure involved is the same as the process associated with unsecured loan requests. Within this process, your lender will also perform a home and property valuation for your collateral. In comparison with a personal unsecured loan, this will be more expensive.
For a less complicated and quicker application, look into consolidating your credit card debt with the same lender or creditor.
What would happen if you've got weak credit?
There's 2 ways to consolidate your debt for those who have less-than-perfect credit.
You're able to request a secured loan or a conventional unsecured loan, firstly. As a high risk applicant, you will have to pay higher interest. Your bad credit will demonstrate to the lender that you do not display beneficial tendencies with your previous credit balances. When compared to a secured financial loan, the rates of interest are larger with unsecured financial loans. You could typically find more affordable interest rates when you protect the personal loan with collateral.
In case you are not approved for a personal loan or you do not have collateral for a secured financial loan, you may have an alternative to find debt consolidation loans. A debt settlement program is the second approach. This is often a good alternative for those with inadequate credit scores and unsettled or defaulted debts.
It is an approach to negotiating for the chance to pay off only a percentage of the debt which you owe. Although you could negotiate on your own, it is easier to coordinate this process with a debt negotiation business. If the creditor or loan company agrees to your settlement deal offer, then the remainder of the debt is going to be pardoned.
What would happen if you have a low credit score?
There's a couple of methods for getting lower interest rate consolidation loans. When you have a good credit rating, then you can certainly use the first approach. You should prove to the loan company that you are a trustworthy debtor and you have displayed good repayment habits with your past consumer credit balances. Your credit rating shows a lot when it comes to being qualified for a reduced interest rate loan.
Trying to find a secured financial loan is your 2nd approach for a lower rate of interest. This normally entails utilizing your home equity. Through putting your property as collateral, the loan company will feel more reassured that they'll get something just in case you choose to fall behind on your loan repayments.
Zero cost credit card debt consolidation
If you are searching for a totally free debt consolidation lender, we've got terrible news: You will not discover any. You're going to always have interest charges to pay on the financial loan. Certain businesses might demand a small application payment but it is usually hard to completely eliminate this fee. They are required for the business to examine your credit report and process your application for a loan. You are going to provide for these types of requirements with the origination costs.
Though you cannot get a cost-free debt consolidation loan in Unalaska, Alaska, you can receive a complimentary estimate, to make certain that you will know exactly how much the borrowed funds cost prior to making a decision.
Deciding on the best credit card debt consolidation company
Among the most effective ways to determine whether a company is reputable or otherwise would be to check out its credentials. This is where you can see which companies and institutions the lender is affiliated with. Different agencies will research the company prior to authorizing them to become endorsed by their institution. It is helpful to learn exactly what the company's standards are for authorization.
Here are some of the credentials that legal services pursue.
Better Business Bureau. The Better Business Bureau has a guide which they use to rank various businesses. This is what's called the BBB Business Partner Code of Conduct. Their webpage is an effective reference for learning more info on the consolidation company that you wish to work with. You can research other consumer experiences and interactions with the provider.
American Fair Credit Council. This is an organization of Consumer Credit Advocates that endorses guidelines in the field and encourages honest treatment of consumers struggling with credit card debt.
National Foundation for Credit Counseling. The National Foundation for Credit Counseling is an organization that empowers clients and debt relief agencies. The NFCC only accepts members that successfully passed the certification of the Council on Accreditation.
International Association of Professional Debt Arbitrators. This organization helps to ensure that the debt arbitrators used by consolidation businesses are educated and registered to do business on behalf of their clientele.
There are other accrediting bodies, both international and nationwide, that you could look into. These kinds of organizations are mindful about the members and accreditations they hand out, so you're able to be confident of a legit service from their listing.
Client review articles expose a lot concerning consolidation companies
Another way to ensure that you are only transacting with a reputable and reliable lender is through reviews. You will find consumer testimonials all over the internet, including web pages that are specially developed for consolidation business testimonials. A few are personal finance web pages or new agencies that feature specific companies.
You'll be able to find out about the cost, the quality, the available products and services, and much more from the consumer reviews. Although the expenses are a significant part of it, they shouldn't be your main consideration. A good service requires more than just low rates. Additional critical indicators include customer care and client satisfaction.
It's also important to consider what exactly you need in your debt consolidation loan. Avoid being deceived by low rates and empty promises. You won't want to wind up stuck with disproportionate fees and penalties or inflexible repayment arrangements. If the method and payment terms are more critical than a lower-interest rate, then be sure the business you'll transact with can help you fulfill your debt relief needs.
Nonprofit consolidation loan companies
Not for profit credit counseling agencies are out there, but non-profit consolidation companies are not an option. At least, the legit ones won't ever market that they're non-profit companies. All lenders will require borrowers to pay off more than the amount of the loan. The provider generally obtains their profits from administration costs and interest fees.
Instead of looking for non profit services, you'll want to concentrate on looking for those that will give you the smallest rate of interest and charges. To achieve success with a consolidation loan, you have to blend low rates of interest, a good credit reputation, and cost-effective service fees.
If you do ever come across a service that promises to be non-profit for debt consolidation loans, be truly wary and thorough with your investigating. There's a good possibility that this kind of opportunity is a rip off.
Finding the best debt consolidation loan providers
The good thing is that it's a lot easier to discover the best consolidation loan providers now than in the past. The internet has refined the research required. The reality is, you don't have to waste hours and hours investigating lenders before choosing one. As long as you are aware of what you need and know your particular financial circumstance, you can make an excellent choice. This will help you choose the best debt consolidation lender to use for your credit card debt relief requirements.
One of the most popular solutions for people who have a good credit reputation is Lightstream. With this lender, you're able to consolidate your personal credit card debt with an unsecured loan. There's stringent requirements, but if you satisfy them, you can receive the best rates on the market. To do business with this provider, you need at least 5 years of credit with multiple types of consumer debt.
When you are trying to find a fast loan acceptance, Lending Club is a good lender for your consolidation loan needs. This is an internet based lender that is well-liked for offering a rapid approval process. It may take just two or three days to have the quick loan you require. Everything will depend on the sum that you'll receive and your credit rating position. You don't have to stress about the online process since your details are guarded with a innovative security and safety program.National Debt Relief is the perfect alternative when you have weak credit and for individuals who have already defaulted on their debts.

Construction of 160-unit senior living facility underway
Construction of a new 160-unit senior living facility has started on Beard Sawmill Road, off Bridgeport Avenue and behind Wells Hollow Farm.
Brightview Senior Living plans to open the multi-level facility in 2019, creating about 100 full- and part-time jobs. The facility will have 86 independent living units, 48 assisted living units, and 26 units for people with dementia such as Alzheimer's disease.
The site is near Old Stratford Road and Route 8, and residents may have noticed all the grading work taking place on the elevated site in recent months. It appears the building's concrete foundation is in the process of being poured now.
Julie Masiello, Brightview vice president of marketing and sales, said Shelton was selected for the Maryland-based company's second facility in Connecticut because it's an "underserved market."
Masiello said prospective facility residents are usually people who have lived in the area and no longer need a large home. "They usually want to stay in the community where they have put down roots," she said.
Other people may move into the facility because they have adult children who live in Shelton or surrounding towns. "The adult children want a community where their parents can live close to them," Masiello said.
Brightview may add another building with up to 90 living units in a second phase, leading to 250 units in total.
The initial building will occupy 7.9 acres of a 10.9-acre parcel. It is a separate lot created as part of a Planned Development District for the abutting Hawks Ridge housing development in 2014. Access to the 41-acre Hawks Ridge community of single-family homes and townhouse condominiums, still under construction, is from Long Hill Cross Road.
As part of the Brightview plan, the developer will make improvements to Beard Sawmill Road, now a narrow, winding and hilly street. Parts of the road will be widened to 26 feet and some bumps flattened out to improve driver sightlines.
"The length of the road reconstruction is approximately 800 feet and will improve the most deficient section of Beard Sawmill Road," City Engineer Robert Kulacz wrote in a memo.
Beard Sawmill runs between Bridgeport Avenue and Far Mill Crossing, going under Route 8 near two office complexes and the Stratford border.
The developer's traffic expert said the 160-unit senior living facility "is not expected to have a significant impact to traffic operations," and potentially expanding to 250 units "would generate a very low amount of additional traffic ... due to the nature of the assisted living use."
Senior living communities are considered low traffic generators because residents generally don't own cars and employees' shifts are spread out over a 24-hour period. The facility will have a shuttle van available to residents.
The Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously approved the Brightview facility in April 2017. Another assisted living facility previously had been approved for the site but never constructed.
The building will be three to four stories, have both one-and two-bedroom units, outdoor courtyards, 125 parking spaces, and one driveway on Beard Sawmill. The building's farmhouse-type architectural design is intended to reflect the location, formally part of the neighboring farm.
"We designed the community to fit with the aesthetic of Wells Hollow Farm," Masiello said.
She said another plus to the location is its proximity " to shops, restaurants and the convenience of Route 8."
Brightview Senior Living operates 35 facilities in the Northeast, from Virginia to Massachusetts. The company opened its first Connecticut facility in Norwalk in 2016.

All students must complete a scholarly dissertation. The student handbook provides detailed descriptions of the expectations and components of the doctoral dissertation. Students are free to choose any topic that matches their professional and career goals and is compatible with the interests and expertise of their PSYC 881 (Issues and Methods in Research and Evaluation: Research Practicum) course instructor (who is also normally the student's advisor). Overall, emphasis is placed on applied research projects. The ability to use applied research is seen as an integral part of each student's overall training, and one befitting a doctoral-level health service psychologist.
At its best, the dissertation should not only constitute a credible and substantial contribution to the larger field of psychology, but should also clearly
- represent the culmination of a rigorous process of intellectual development;
- emerge from discussions regarding student's interests and strengths and the expertise and interests of the student's advisor; and
- be congruent with that student's professional and scholarly aspirations

The Off-Air Blog.
So here we go - the blog of my life without a job! But hey, being unemployed can be fun - You get to sleep in 'till whatever ungodly hour you please, binge more episodes on Netflix than you'd ever like to admit, and you guessed it - make people read your mindless babble on a blog! It's been a long while... and I don't think it's a secret that I've been purposely quiet on social media these days, but for a good reason. I needed some time to digest, watch loads of garbage TV (obviously) and really just take a step back from the crazy world of social media to focus on the external things in my life that matter most. The truth is, for the past few years, I have felt so unlike myself. I've been lost in the world of "fake it till you make it", but take it from me… one can only fake it so long until you have a complete identity crisis. The process has been slow, and admittedly a bit emotional, but I'm getting there. Day by day, I find little bits and pieces of myself again, and I'm slowly feeling more and more like the beer-drinkin', fart-jokin' Saskatchewan girl that I am.
A lot of people have messaged me over the past few months and have essentially been asking "What the hell happened, and what have you been up to?" Well let's rewind to April 18, 2016. I came into the office that morning as per usual with my shit-eating grin and my Tims coffee, and before I could even sit down - the bossman asked if we could have a minute in his office. Something felt off, I could see it in my boss's face, and that moment right there, I knew EXACTLY what was coming. I sat down, took a deep breath, and he got right to the point. "We are letting you go".
At first, it hurt. After 6 years of putting my absolute everything into my show to please the masses- I was told I was no longer a great fit to the station. Here's the thing though, I completely, wholeheartedly agreed. I can't say I didn't see this coming, nor could I say I felt he was making a big mistake. It made all the sense in the world, and after a few tears and some smudged mascara, I was incredibly relieved. There was such a mutual respect between my boss and I, that I think he truly felt he couldn't drag me through the mud anymore. The station had gone through tremendous changes throughout the years due to our rollercoaster ratings, and even though I may not have always agreed with the changes- I was a member of the team and did what was asked of me to try and reach a common goal. As the months passed, the station continued to change, and our freedom as personalities on the station were stripped from us. The reality of the situation was that I was no longer myself on the air; I was merely a name and a voice, and show after show of talking just to talk, I lost myself not only as an announcer, but as a person. My job is so much of who I am, but when you're not able to be you in what you do for a living- ESPECIALLY in the entertainment industry, how are you supposed to be yourself once the mic has turned off and the show is over? How are other people supposed to perceive you when you don't even know how to perceive yourself?
I left the building that day and immediately called my lifeline - Mom. Here's the crazy part - yes I was crying because let's face it - my ego was a tad bruised, but I was also smiling because I knew this was a blessing in disguise. I was free. I was finally free of having to fake my way through every day, free of any contractual constraints, and I could finally do the things that I have always wanted to. I could travel anywhere I wanted, I could apply for any job I wanted, I didn't have to ask for permission to go places or feel like a dick for exploring my options in the business. I was as free as the bird I was named after. That day, I found a small piece of me that has gotten buried under all the branded bullshit that I had been spoon-fed for some time. It was time for me to get back to who I really was, and just do me for a while.
Fast forward 3 weeks; my plane tickets were booked and I was off to explore this big beautiful world we live in, and I was doing it solo-dolo. Was I scared? Holy shit- yes. I went through insane amounts of anxiety on this trip but dealing with that anxiety was a very valuable lesson I needed to learn. I travelled Southeast Asia for 5 weeks, exploring Indonesia, Thailand, and The Philippines, and I learned more about myself in those 5 weeks then I have in 5 years. I earned such an appreciation for things I wouldn't otherwise have opened my eyes to, and I gained such a different perspective that I know has forever shaped me as a person. After those 5 weeks in Asia, I came home to get my priorities straight, revisit my career options, and spend some time with family. With no viable options for jobs, and the travel itch that still needed scratching - I packed my bags again and took off to Europe. I spent time in England, Croatia, Bosnia, Germany, Vienna, The Czech Republic, Hungary, Denmark, and Ireland, and have since returned home to A) get back in shape (because after a while, the wine and the pasta catches up to you) and B) get a job (because the unemployed life gets real old, real fast). Both much easier said than done!
So with all that said - I am slowly but surely starting to feel like myself again. I'm still unemployed, and that sucks, but life has a funny way of teaching you certain lessons, and I have a feeling this might be a way to teach me a fine lesson on PATIENCE (something that I have very little of). For now, we play the waiting game - my least favourite game in all of the games out there - but I can smell the roses on the other side, and god damn they smell good.

Have you noticed how many people respond to the question 'how are you?' with the word 'busy'?
It's like some sort of badge of honour in our society and it helps to feed our self worth 'tank', if we have every hour in our diary filled up.
And we flit from one thing to the next without taking time to really enjoy what we're doing or take some headspace for ourselves.
In work we are given more and more projects and at times everything on our plate is deemed 'urgent'. Multi-tasking in our society has been praised – but leaves us feeling depleted of energy and dissatisfied with what we've achieved. Outside of work we want to cram in all the family and friend catch ups – see this, do this, we have a big case of FOMO (fear of missing out).
(stay with me, there's some good stuff coming :0) ……..
It feels fun, but can leave us feeling exhausted and a little empty. We're going going going, ticking off our to-do-list – feeling a sense of achievement (or not) based on how much of our to do's we've done.
And then there are times in our year – maybe it's a holiday, maybe it's when we're sick.
When we stop.
Where there's nothing to do, other than rest.
And suddenly there's quiet, there's space.
New ways of thinking are revealed to us, maybe some new insights, new dreams, reflections. This is because we give ourselves some space.
This is when our body is given the opportunity to speak to us, our intuition is not drowned out by the 'busy-ness'. And it feels good, really good to have this space.
So why is it that we don't give it to ourselves more regularly?
Because we don't prioritise it in our lives.
Maybe it's because we think it feels 'self indulgent' or 'selfish', maybe we don't deem it as important as our 'to do's' or maybe we just simply 'forget'.
But we know how GOOD it feels and we remember this feeling.
So let me ask you – how can you bring this 'feeling' into your day to day life?
How can you fit in some time for you, to be with yourself at least once a day?
Here's a few ideas if you're stuck:
- Get out in nature. Go for a walk, sit and listen to the birds, the wind in the trees, the sound of the sea. Connect and breathe.
- Make a cup of organic tea and enjoy every sip in silence
- Take your shoes off and stand in the grass. Close your eyes and feel the ground beneath your feet.
- Take a long bath, with candles and essential oils. Close your eyes and breathe into the silence.
- Sit, place a hand on your heart, the other on your belly. Breathe through your nose and feel your belly expand on the inhale and your belly contract on the exhale. Do this for as long as you need.
- Journal. Put pen to paper and write. Write whatever comes to mind.
Now my intention here is not to give you another to-do-list!
Start small, just do one thing once a week and then add another or increase the frequency, the more you do these things, the more they become a habit and part of your routine and life.
This is 'you' time and is so important for your mental and physical wellbeing. After all we're not called 'human doings' we're called 'human beings'.
So maybe it's about time we lived up to this and started to 'be' more than we 'do'.
I'd love to hear your thoughts on how you can give yourself more 'me' time and move into more 'being' and less 'doing'.

A feminist author unloaded on a Twitter user earlier this week who pointed out that Democratic Alabama Senate candidate Doug Jones supports abortion, staunchly declaring that "fetuses aren't babies."
Jennifer Wright, a Harper's Bazaar contributor, declared that because unborn babies are the size of lemons, they shouldn't be considered humans. She said this in response to a Twitter user commenting that Jones "supports killing babies."
"For fucks sakes, fetuses aren't babies. Pretending they are is wishful thinking. They're the size of lemons and can't survive on their own. You don't know any humans who are lemon sized," Wright quote tweeted the Twitter user Monday.
"This notion that actual humans should have fewer rights than a cell cluster based on some scientifically hilariously unfounded notion that the cell cluster is whispering 'mama I love you' inside your womb is EXHAUSTING," Wright continued.
Some Twitter users were quick to ridicule Wright's argument on why babies in the early stages of development shouldn't be considered "human."

text: When I came here on Jan. 10, 2018, I was just coming out of my 3rd or 4th cast after breaking my left wrist to the point I had to have surgery that included inserting a metal plate in my wrist to hold it together and heal. I was in pretty tough shape. It was very daunting not being able to move any of my fingers, hand, or wrist. I was unable to hold or pick up a cup or dress myself. The minute I walked into Life In Motion, I was greeted by Sam who, with her happy and welcoming voice, put me at ease immediately . When meeting with Adrienne and the rest of the family (staff), I knew this was going to be a positive and ever fun road to recovery. Life In Motion is not just a therapy facility, it is a family. Everyone is supportive, caring and experts in your body and the specific help your injury needs to heal. Life In Motion and Adrienne contact my doctor on a weekly basis to ensure all aspects of my needs were being met. I now can dress myself, make a fist, hold a glass, and do most everyday things we take for granted in everyday life. Life In Motion is a team of people who not only take excellent care of you physically, but emotionally. You feel safe, positive, and become more knowledgeable about your body. I want to thank Adrienne for putting me on the road back to full recovery. Also, for her love, humor, and healing and creative skills. She made me this awesome splint to help me with my ulna. This is the place to come for inspiration on all levels. Thank you!!!

Nevada: Las Vegas: Hotels: The Palazzo Las Vegas
Emeril Lagasse Sets the Table at The Palazzo
Famed New Orleans Chef Maps Out New American Cuisine at Table 10
Chef Emeril Lagasse opens Table 10 at Las Vegas' new luxury resort, The Palazzo. Table 10 is a New American restaurant that highlights the renowned cuisine, personality and warm style of hospitality that began at a quaint table inside Emeril's flagship restaurant in New Orleans. The restaurant is open Sunday-Thursday from 11:00 am-11:00 pm, and 11:00 am-12:00 midnight on Fridays and Saturdays. Reservations may be made by calling the restaurant at 702-607-6363.
The name Table 10 is synonymous with the spirit of Emeril's restaurants. This spirit began over 17 years ago, at a modest table (numbered 10 on the floor plan) in an unassuming building on the edge of downtown New Orleans. Daily rituals were performed here -- reviewing design plans, writing menus, interviewing staff and exploring new ideas -- as they prepared for the opening of Lagasse's first restaurant. When the restaurant doors opened on March 24, 1990, every evening ended at Table 10, and it became a roundtable of lively conversations and a creative environment for new ideas.
The menu at Table 10 is regional and ingredient-driven, drafted from a blueprint mastered through years of searching for the best products from farmers, fisherman and ranchers from across the country. The menu reflects the country's greatest culinary treasures harvested at their peak including organic and natural meats, crisp produce grown in the fertile soils of California and seafood from the Gulf Coast.
"Since my early days as a chef, I've built relationships with ranchers, farmers, fisherman, and winemakers, and their products are a constant source of inspiration for me," says Emeril Lagasse. "They put so much hard work and care into producing the very highest quality products. Our menu at Table 10 showcases these unbelievable ingredients -- from sweet corn from the Mississippi Delta, to specially grown tomatoes from our farm, Pride of San Juan in California."
Chef de Cuisine Jean Paul Labadie, working along side Chef Emeril for over 14 years, oversees the kitchen at Table 10, sharing his knowledge and techniques perfected at Emeril's flagship restaurant in New Orleans and Emeril's New Orleans Fish House. Turning his attention to the raw ingredients from a collective of purveyors, Jean Paul presents American classics in fresh form such as Lobster Pot Pie, Gulf Oyster Croquettes with Rockefeller Dipping Sauce, Slow Roasted Lamb Sliders and Barbecued Kurobuta Pork Roll.
The kitchen at Table 10 also features popular dishes from Chef Emeril's other venues -- Pasta Jambalaya (Emeril's Gulf Coast Fish House), Grilled Dry Aged Angus Rib Eye (Delmonico Steakhouse), Miso Marinated Black Cod (Emeril's New Orleans Fish House), New Orleans Style Seafood Gumbo (Emeril's New Orleans), and Fresh Hamachi and Butter Lettuce Wrap (Emeril's Miami Beach).
In addition to a formal menu of hot and cold starters and chef-composed entrees, adventurous diners may opt for the slate of deconstructed entrees. Experience the finest portions of dry aged prime and wagyu beef, short ribs, kurobuta pork, and lamb, combined with any variety sides like Baked Lobster Mac and Cheese, Pinot Noir Braised Mushrooms, Country Smashed Potatoes, and Frites, to craft the perfect free-style meal. The centerpiece may be sourced from any one of the natural cooperatives with whom Chef Emeril has relationships, including Niman Ranch, Ashley Farms, Cedar Springs, Snake River Farm, and Berkridge Farm -- all prepared with skill and simplicity or roasted on one of two flaming rotisseries.
Designed by Chef Emeril's friends at the Rockwell Group, the vibe at Table 10 is the junction between casual and world-class dining -- an infusion of hip design with New Orleans hospitality and comfort. Upon arriving through the French Quarter iron gates at the entrance, guests enter into the restaurant's center bar, where General Manager Ki Song An welcomes guests. The metal-crafted bar is topped by cast-glass and seats 22, flanked by communal banquettes lining the walls on each side. An antique iron staircase transformed into sculpture showcases spirits, wines available by the glass and half-bottle, and regional craft brews. A glass-enclosed wine cellar sits at the back of the bar and stores selections from leading vintners who are long-time friends of Emeril.
The Food Bar, a lively feature of many of Emeril's restaurants, presents uninterrupted views of the grill stations and busy kitchen, and the two flaming rotisseries that are used continuously throughout the day. A window at the end of the kitchen looks north up Las Vegas Boulevard. Oversized steel columns and beams frame the 110-foot long front façade, with colored glass canopies opening out over the 70-seat sidewalk café, where guests can experience lush views of The Palazzo atrium.

Flannel Friday turns 3 today! In celebration of the many many many fabulous ideas I have lovingly borrowed from Flannel Friday contributors, here are 3 of my favorites that I have copied and had a BLAST sharing with my Story Time groups:
#1 – Caps for Sale
This idea came from the amazing and talented Miss Sue at Library Village. In her version she had crocheted caps! Lacking time and yarn, I borrowed this idea using felt for the caps. I used this as part of a preschool program about Monkeys. The kids had so much fun re-enacting the story with these props. Thank you Miss Sue for the fabulous idea!
Miss Sue's Version:
My Version:
#2 – Melting Snowmen
This ingenious feltboard came from Miss Sarah at Read it Again! An engineering marvel, I was only able to re-create it because of Miss Sarah's directions and clear photos. THANK YOU! We used this for a Melting Snowmen theme and my preschoolers were in complete AWE!
Miss Sarah's Version:
My Version:
#3 – Did You Ever See a Turkey
Another wonderful idea borrowed from Read It Again! courtesy of Miss Sarah. We used this for a Turkey Story Time along with the great tune on her site. It is utterly goofy and completely silly and was so easy and quick to make! Thanks again Miss Sarah!

Two years ago I made the unfortunate mistake of pledging for the Obsidian 3D printer campaign on Kickstarter. It turned out to be a really lousy investment, seeing that as of this point, more than two years later, nothing has been delivered and no real prospect of delivery of any sort of product is in sight by the creator, Kodama. In spring 2018, already one year after the campaign ended and with no product in sight, I decided to go on and buy a 3D printer to get going with some pressing prototyping work I had in queue. I ended up getting the cheap Wanhao Duplicator i3 Mini, regarding which I have written two blog posts [1, 2]. Long story short, the Wanhao machine was usable but performance and usability was far from ideal.
As I was using, repairing and upgrading the printer, I started developing a few ideas on what a good 3D printer should be like. Finally, a couple months ago I took the bait and decided to start on building my own machine.
This is the first blog post about it.

Design Goals
One of the main design goals of this build was to come up with a frame design that would be as stiff as possible given the properties of the materials used.
Just to be perfectly clear: I shrug when I see machines that have a heavy, stiff frame while the print head and bed is supported by some half-assed 8mm-ish steel rods. Stiffness has no meaning whatsoever unless it translates specifically to minimization of displacement between print head and print bed under loads induced while printing. This is the important measure. You can have as stiff a frame as it goes; nudge the print head back and forth with your hand and feel how much it displaces over the print bed. Does it feel flexible? If so, I'm sorry but your setup is not structurally sound.
Why are steel rods bad for stiffness, you ask. It is steel after all. Hard stuff. Well, yes, however, the main loading mode in cartesian printers is bending, and resistance to bending is proportional to the second moment of area of a cross-section. Very roughly speaking: for a constant thickness annulus, a two-fold increase of the radius will result in an eight-fold increase of the bending resistance, against just a two-fold increase in mass, considering the same material. This is why an aluminum rail like a 60mm x 20mm V-Slot blows any 8mm steel rod out of the water in terms of bending stiffness, even though aluminum has more elasticity than steel.
It's not just the linear elements though. The mechanical joints between them are also of importance, since the main aim of the joint is to restrict degrees of freedom, and how effective this is being done is proportional to the geometry of the joint. In the case of cartesian 3d-printers (Deltas are a totally different beast) we deal almost exclusively with translational joints, which means that you'll have an element rolling on a rail or similar. The size of the overall joint, as well as the location of the rollers relative to each other plays a key role on the stiffness of the overall frame.
A second design goal concerns electronics and control. Here I wanted a printer that, on one hand is easy to use, probably through remote interface rather than local HMI on the machine, and on the other hand exhibits good motion control to enable fast and error-free printing. It is noteworthy that a well-tuned controller is able to address shortcomings of the physical structure so that the printer appears to be well built, even if it is not. For instance, a well tuned acceleration profile may allow fast printing speeds while at the same time cancelling any oscillations that the structure may demonstrate.
Finally, I wanted a printer that didn't cost an arm and a leg, and where I could use components that I had already available in the workshop, minimizing having to buy new stuff.
Design, Materials & Assembly
I chose to build the printer chassis using V-Slot elements. These elements are well-built, stiff, widely available and modular enough to allow alternations without radical re-design. They also offer mounting solutions for common components such as stepper motors, while a slew of niche accessories are available to print on Thingiverse. This modular system allowed extensive experimentation while building the physical machine, to the degree that I have found no need for actually designing the printer in a CAD program.
For the overall form I chose a typical C-shape, where the print head moves in the X- and Z-axis, and the print bed in the Y-axis. This is the same as the Duplicator i3 Mini that I used previously. The key element in this design was to keep the bed rail, vertical column and horizontal print head rail as thick as the available V-slot rail sections would allow. In fact, for the print head rail I could have used an even thicker cross-section but that's for another design.
All rolling joints slide on four polycarbonate rollers on 5mm twin bearings, two on each side. The rollers are held on stock 4mm thick aluminum plates, spaced out as far as the plate allows for maximizing bending moment resistance. The two horizontal axes, X and Y, use a belt-and-pinion arrangement. In this arrangement, a belt runs on one side of the rail and is fixed on both ends. The belt passes under the two carriage guiding rollers, and over the pinion of the motor, meshing, the motor being mounted on the carriage. The belt-and-pinion setup offers several advantages among which are the use of an overall shorter stretch of belt that increases positioning precision, as well as easy service and replacement. A drawback is that for a moving carriage the motor needs to be placed on the carriage, increasing it's mass.
The extruder assembly is of the bowden type and uses a MK8 extruder head, an aluminum extrusion clamp with a Zaribo motor and a Capricorn PTFE tube. The extruder head along with head and part cooling fans are custom mounted on a short piece of V-Slot rail.
The printing bed is an Orballo Printing MK42 24x20cm heated bed that is essentially a thick fiberglass PCB with embedded resistor. The advantage of being manufactured with PCB techniques is that it stays perfectly flat irrespective of heat or loads. The bed is mounted on a DIY screw adjustment system using two 2×2 V-Slot rails.
Electronics & Software
I like the approach that Klipper takes: A high-level processor generates a motion plan consisting of step timings offline, which is then transmitted and executed in real-time by a microcontroller. Klipper runs on a Raspberry Pi 2 and combines Octoprint as a high-level interface for ease of use. A SKR v1.3 board has the role of a low-level controller, connected to the Pi via USB. The SKR is quite affordable at a price point of around $25 on eBay, and can accommodate a good range of printer features, including dual extruders and heated bed with thermistor. In addition, four DRV8825 stepper motor drivers are responsible for driving the XYZ and Extruder motors. The setup is powered by a 200W mains power supply. All the electronics fit in a plastic box which is mounted on the rear of the printer.
The printer performs surprisingly well. I tuned printing parameters using a series of Benchy test prints. Below you can see a Benchy printed after tuning. Note that this model has not been post-processed at all.
Printing speed is quite good as well, much better than it's predecessor. On average prints come out with full detail at 65mm/sec, while at 80mm/sec some detail is lost. Non-print moves go as high as 170mm/sec without an issue.
Future Upgrades
There is lot of room for upgrades on this machine, being pretty much as modular as it gets. The first major upgrade that I'm planning is the replacement of the Polycarbonate rollers with MGN linear guides. This should further increase stiffness and therefore precision. In addition, a high-end nozzle such as a Mosquito is next up on the upgrade list, as well as a direct drive extruder system such as a Bondtech. Finally, the ultimate upgrade to the motion system would be the replacement of stepper motors with brushless servomotors and closed-loop control through G-Code, completely bypassing the step/dir interface that is common with stepper motors.
This post summarized the principles and building of a custom-built FDM 3D printer build that is aimed to be affordable, robust, easy to use and produce good prints. Printing results indicate that this design has succeeded in most of these goals, although there is definitely room for improvement.

Discovery Education Strengths Training
Whoo hoo! What a fantastic week! I was invited to Discovery's Education Conference to speak with their Leadership Council and Principal group on Strengths. I don't think they could have given more love! It was a great time of learning in beautiful San Diego. I got to see old friends and make new ones. All-in-all I am pumped at having the opportunity to share the Strengths message to amazing educators and professionals from all over the globe! Here are a few highlights of our time together!
This was the debut for "Heroes of the Faith!" It did very well standing next to "Draw On Your Strengths." I loved the feedback I got and a few good ideas that will be coming down the pike soon as well!
Next week I travel to Omaha, Nebraska, where I will attend the CliftonStrengths Summit! Looking forward to a time of learning and filling up my bucket so I can go back out and give again!

308 caught in winter testing sets speculation in motion. Could this be a 308 Sport, or RC/Z Coupe, or a GTI? Or maybe it's just a facelifted 308.
What could Peugeot be up to with this 308? Are they finally going to come up with a real sport version to compete with the Golf GTI or the upcoming Megane Alpine in this segment? Yes, we liked the GT - but a 1.6 liter turbo with 175 hp is no longer enough for GTI material.
This 308, caught during winter testing, comes with broader rear bumpers but not much else seems to distinguish this from the production 308 GT THP 175.
Maybe, its a mule for the 218 horsepower RC/Z Coupe, which was shown as a concept at the Frankfurt motor show in 2007. An RC version seems to be where Peugeot is likely headed, given its recent history.
Or maybe it's just a facelifted 308.
But you want to see that lion roar as a pure GTI, don't you? Chip tune that 1.6 liter power plant to about 220 hp and let that classic Peugeot handling the brand was always known for make its well-overdue return and show the competition how its done again.
We can dream, can't we?

Will the U.S. Look to Europe as a Guide to Protect Kids Online?
Just days after releasing a headline-grabbing study showing the 'kids aren't alright,' when it comes to their online safety, the European Union has initiated a new, strict set of rules for social network sites. Could the United States be far behind? Should America's leaders follow suit?
Just days after releasing a headline-grabbing study showing the 'kids aren't alright,' when it comes to their online safety, the European Union has initiated a new, strict set of rules for social network sites. Could the United States be far behind? Should America's leaders follow suit?
The Commission adopted its tough stance after a survey found that an increasing number of children were bypassing social network age limits to set up their accounts. The survey was funded by the Commission and published by the EUKidsOnline network.
The survey also found that one quarter of the 77 percent of 13-16 year olds and 38 percent of 9-12 year olds in the EU with a social media profile have their profile set to public.
The updates to the Safer Social Networking Principles released this week by the EU were described as "self-regulatory guidelines" that social network companies can adopt to meet EU safety standards for protecting minors.
They call for social network sites to ensure that children's profiles are visible only to the child's friends and cannot be found on a search engine.
The sites must also agree to provide clear guidance for children to adapt the site's privacy settings, a reaction to the survey's findings that at least 20 percent of teenagers and more than 40 percent of tweens did not know how to control their privacy settings.
The Principles further call for social networks to agree to "limit exposure that children have to age-appropriate content and delete under-age users from their service."
More than 17 major Internet companies signed on to the guidelines when they were first released by the EU in 2009, and the Commission plans to soon publish an evaluation of how the guidelines have been implement.
The European Commission's release of the updated principles came on the same day of a report by the United Kingdom's media regulator, OFCOM, that found children's online activity has increased in the past year, and their knowledge has surpassed that of their parents.
OFCOM's media literacy survey found that nearly half of parents think their children, aged between 5 and 15, know more about the Internet than they do, while the rise in access to the Internet among children ages 12-15 grew more than 10 percentage points in just two years.
The release also comes as Americans across the pond continue to struggle over how to balance consumer and commercial rights with consumers' privacy, especially children.
No fewer than seven bills related to online privacy are circulating now in Congress, with some devoted to children's privacy alone.
There is also an increasingly crowded, and competitive, market in the U.S. for social network sites targeted just at children, a response to the spate of privacy breaches on sites like Facebook and Twitter as well as the growing concerns of parents and consumers of all ages.
European-based, kids-only sites are already experimenting with new technology and Web designs, so how long until they cross the pond to the U.S.? And which will, or should, come first – the new technologies, or new regulations?
Tell us what you think.

One of the busiest teams since the 2018 league year began, the Los Angeles Rams bolstered their defense, shipped away a playmaker (or two) and brought back key players who put forth career years in 2017.
While we wrote about their aggressive offseason moves earlier this year, after their signing of Ndamukong Suh, the Rams are firmly on the radar for a deep and lengthy playoff run in 2018. Perhaps going under-looked, is their franchise-tagging of cornerback-turned-safety Lamarcus Joyner who registered a career-high 90.3 overall grade last season. Joyner is joined by Marcus Peters, Aqib Talib, Nickell Robey-Coleman and burgeoning star in second-year safety John Johnson III to arguably form the league's best secondary as a whole while also holding the league's top interior defender duo in Suh and Aaron Donald.
With their aggressive offseason approach, the Rams have set themselves up to have a successful 2018 campaign while they can also look to the draft to add some depth and a key player or two at certain positions that could become an upgrade. What do PFF Senior Analysts Steve Palazzolo and Sam Monson think of their offseason so far?

Winter Weather Detours
Winter Weather Detours
October 31, 2019
Below are the most common detours that take place when TARC goes on SNOW ROUTING. For more frequent updates, subscribe to receive Text and email alerts.
Substitute 30-foot buses may be operating in place of the all-electric LouLift buses in downtown Louisville during icy weather. Service on Main, Market and 4th Street will remain in place and be fare-free.
Take an earlier trip.
- Buses move only as quickly as traffic allows. If there is snow or ice, consider taking an earlier bus to ensure that you arrive at your destination on time.
Play it safe.
- Buses may slide on snow as they approach the curb. Stay on the curb until the bus comes to a complete stop.
Be visible.
- Especially on dark winter mornings, it's important that you make yourself visible to an approaching bus. Wear light-color clothing. Signal your presence with a small blinker light or flashlight.
Step carefully.
- Bus steps can become slippery from snow. Kick the snow from your shoes before stepping on the bus. Use the handrails and take your time.
Dress warmly.
- Although the ride should be warm, your trip to and from the bus stop may not be. Put on an extra layer – even a short wait at your stop can be dangerous if you're not dressed for the weather. If the temperature on your bus isn't right, please tell your driver so the problem can be fixed or reported to repair staff.
Don't blame the driver.
- If your bus is late, remember that your driver is doing his or her best to make sure you arrive at your destination despite bad road conditions.
Know your route's winter weather detour.
- When severe winter weather hits, we may be forced to implement detours on some routes. To learn if your route has been detoured, look for updates on Twitter (@rideTARC) or Facebook (facebook.com/TARC) or call 502.585.1234. It's helpful to know your route's winter weather detour in advance.
