Frontier probably did get notified, them actually doing something about it with the few linesmen they still have is pretty low.

Speaking as an x linesman (phone) your not supposed to touch the others guys stuff. Some of us would do it when we knew the other guys in the same area but it was a good way to get chewed out if they complained. All you can do is call the other guys if they come out or not they have no control over.

I have no way of knowing. But dont think anybody can say conclusively if they were only going 11mph slower this would not have happened. Other police forces have delt with the same issue and went lets outfit vehicals in a safe manner.

End of the day the root cause was a poorly designed vehicle with well known issues. I would not particularly fault the driver, not to the extent of something criminal.

Now what happened after, not seeking care for the prisoner and what happened at the lock up I can fault them for and that realy exceeds a couple misdemeanor counts they are currently charging them with.

Pretty much this. Our city's are small what would be a nice neighborhood elsewhere is a neighboring town here.

Orange is bisected by a strip mall called the post road.

Living just north of Bethany it's a nice drive in your close enough to things but not in them. Lots of horse farms and nice places but 15 minutes from things to do.

Nearly 30 years ago built parts of a system that would track state police cars while working for the DOT. Unions fought it so it was never implemented, it would have flagged any car speeding without it's lights on or sitting about but not checked out as off patrol. Cops speed a LOT, they also seem to sit in strange parking lots for hours.

That all said dont think that 11mph made the difference in the guy getting paralyzed.

Considering the UK did that awhile ago. Can't blame the officers for using the tools they were given thats the city's fault. Can blame them for the treatment at the lockup and the driver for leaving against protocol.

I'm not excusing bad manners though would say that reflects the state of the sport from the top on down, far to many of those sorts of moms involved. Would rather have my daughter politely asking for donations at a grocery store than the wink wink nudge nudge car washes anyday.

Meaning they have to fundraise a lot more than say the football team.

If it was a sport they would not need to solicit donations nearly as much. Pretty much those donations are going to the organizing bodys profits when the kids just want to compete.

Because cheerleading is not considered a sport. If it were a sport the state would run competitions fund it etc. As it currently stands, they win anything local they need to pay their way to Disney for competition.

As a local, I've never figured out why people likes this place food never been better than meh and priced for the new yorkers not the locals.

Paid for convenience.

EW stocking fiber now and can get you the part at 4am if your realy desperate.

It's a PITA son got his in the last year.

Take written test to get the permit.

Then take driving school with a min 120 days or just the basic scared straight that parents need to show up and 180 days.

Finally it's the Road test.

He is great.

Watertowns issues are more crime comming in from Waterbury and the influx of new yorkers living to the north but driving through town constantly.

Moved to Prospect to get back to a nice quiet town.

You would have to lie when you renew, if they feds ever get snippy enough not hard to subpoena the dispensary records.

Seemed heavy biased towards walking/biking

All the same.

Their base premis is it was the highway not the times. Waterbury got bisected by 84 and it went downhill for the same reason manufacturing died out in the US due to regulation.

Your link is to doorbell cams, it's mixed. If your talking to them yup one party consent and nobody is going to get anywhere on civil it's too ubiquitous at this point though posting signage does not hurt. The motion detected or 24/7 audio with video is not, doubt your going to get in trouble for it but it's one of those piss off a cop they may throw it on the pile.

Adopted a cat from you guys 8 years ago, you realy do great things. Thank you for what you do.

Home Depot rents a fairly large truck with a 2 inch receiver for 20 bucks for 75 minutes.

Looked at used car prices? Bought a car for my family 21,500 list and payed that with fee's etc 24k same car on carvana 27k with 1k miles. So going by resale value yup the collateral is worth it.

In normal times the car goes down 5k for driving off the dealer lot.

Having done the conversion twice now. You have pretty much a trade off scale one side how efficient the heat pump is at a given outside temp combined with your costs of electricity vs cost of oil. What that boils down to an an outside temp that you switch to using oil, and most of the time in CT it's way warmer than that.

Now combine that with solar. For the first few years when your paying off your panels thats probably in the 20's with a modern heat pump and oil > 2 bucks a gallon. Then you're price of electricity drops to 0 for what your panels put out so rapidly it's a question of still using less than you generate overall and what the heat pump can deal with. Think you need oil NG propane or something as a backup heat source in CT, cheaper and more efficient than a generator that can run heat pumps when we lose power for a week.

Avoid cities.

Nearby? It's hard to be more than 30 minutes away from a major job center in CT. Most of the nice places to live dont have any place to work. Were firmly live in towns work in cities.
