Reply to Final Reading: Vermont school officials say studentsâ mental health is at âa breaking pointâ by greenhousecrtv
âA fight for mental health waged only on the terms of access to psychiatric care does not only risk bolstering justifications for profiteering invoked by start-ups eager to capitalize on the widespread effects of grief, anxiety and despair. It also risks pathologizing the very emotions we are going to need to harness for their political power to get real solutions.â Edit to credit author Carr

Every team plays to win, but thereâs also a handshake line after every game.

Reply to comment by Blondemoose3 in Tell me about Newbury, Eden, Isle la Motte, and Grand Isle, plz. (Considering a move from Randolph.) by peachboot828
One thing to consider about Newbury (the town) is that which part you live in determines the school. Newbury (the village) uses Newbury Elementary and Oxbow (the combined junior/senior high school), and Wells River (another village within the Town of Newbury) uses the PreK-12 Blue Mountain. When Act 46 was in flight there was talk about folding Blue Mountain into Oxbow but what was in the state meeting minutes amounted to "let's wait and see if Bradford and Newbury actually start to like each other before adding BM to the cluster and figuring out which buildings to close and how to split the grades"
I have a niece and nephew at Oxbow HS and another niece graduated last year. There's an active drama club, but the music program barely remains. There are definitely the usual "small school" issues with finding ways to challenge the potential superstars.

Have you ever driven 95, 90 or the Merritt Parkway in CT? The amount of road rage and BMWs slipping in and out of traffic is exponentially more than 89. 89 is like a McDonald's play place in comparison

Fast and crowded doesnât necessarily mean that the same stuff is happening to the same degree. The amount of freedom on 89 contributes to the problem. The second someone doesnât feel free to drive whatever speed they want they flip.

How competitive is the league? I'm 31 but I'd definitely be interested in this in a few years!

89 is probably one of the most chill, least crowded highways I've ever used. I don't think you all realize how calm 89 is compared to most other highways in the country... Even in New England

You're petty for tailgating when they arent going the speed limit.
You're even pettier for arguing about it on the internet.
Just accept that your behavior is also dangerous, and that two wrongs dont make a right

Iâm not petty for wanting to go above the speed limit in the left lane.
This is why American highwayâs are so slow because everyone thinks that itâs ok to drive below the speed limit in the left lane
The signs on the highways that say âslower traffic keep rightâ and âkeep right except passingâ say it for a reason

Ah yes, the olâ âCanadian middle fingerâ as taught to me by some friends from up north.
I love a good aggressive thumbs up.

I avoid the interstate if I can. Don't need to get boxed in by 3 massholes racing and then going 15 below the speedlimit to then race you when I just want some groceries.

My biggest issue isn't the highway, it's that people take so long to get going at a light that it turns red. I start every driving session relaxed and it's frustrating having to sit cycle after cycle to get through a light where everyone should've made it the first time.

These libraries serve the state, not just the campuses. Sit-in at CU 9;30 Monday. Protests are also scheduled.

Yeah, The establishment neolib Dems arenât great. Theyâre a center right party by global standards. That doesnât change the fact that the present day republicans are totally off the deep end. Radical regressive policies that are pushing a Christian theocracy as policy. Hell they just put Marjory Taylor green on committee.. the woman who thinks Jewish space lasers are a thing. The woman who denies 9/11 happened. Sheâs on the homeland security committee.
The both sides are the same argument only furthers the ability to destroy whatâs left of American democracy and ideals. đ¤ˇââď¸

Do you have specific questions?
I have 2 through the initial offering from GMP which was more affordable IMO. I havenât had any issues with the battery operating. I did have a couple issue where it wouldnât connect to my WiFi so I could see what was going on in the Tesla app but that was awhile ago. Mine were installed in early June 2020.

Remember when Obama deported more immigrants than any president in history? Remember the 20+ year war in Afghanistan that spanned across multiple administrations and across party lines? Remember that Nancy polosi and Mitch McConnell have outperformed warren buffet in the market by acting on insider information? Remember that Obamaâs cabinet was populated by Goldman Sachs board of executives?

Then you are risking someone's life because you are petty.
I agree they are driving unsafe. That doesn't mean driving at unsafe distance is justified

The only people risking others lives are those who drive slowly in the left lane
Iâm sorry but if youâre doing 50 in the left lane then I am going to tailgate you

If you cut someone off and then slam on your breaks, they are not at fault. If they have a dashcam you are screwed and your insurance will have to pay for you deciding to drive like an idiot.

Yup just the single. They got a bit pissy I didn't want the double although the single was the original plan they tried last min to make me have two. Probably should have went for it it was only 15 a month per unit way back then. Does a great job and I have a large diesel genny if that goes dead.
