Why aren't mental health workers imbedded with police?
Recently police were called to a home on Frontenac Road for a welfare check. A standoff occurred resulting in a person charged with two counts of assaulting a peace officer with a weapon, failing to comply with a release order, and uttering threats to cause death or bodily harm.
I recently moved back to the area from Brockville where Police Service partnered with mental health professionals through its Mobile Crisis Response Team (MCRT) to support individuals facing mental health and addiction crises. I suspect situations like above where the original purpose was to conduct a welfare check, an imbedded mental health/addictions worker could have helped defuse the situation.

cp24.comCandidate talking with residents on Kipps Lane
I was out and about on my walk along the Kilally trails and ran into a candidate. Mario Jozic was in the area talking with residents. I was quite impressed. He seemed very cordial, personable and I appreciate his common sense approach. Well done Mario in taking time to talk.
Another tiny tall car
I still prefer the curves of the Venue versus the boxy look of the Soul.
Another tiny tall car?
It looks small, but is a Jeep Compass size wise, close to a Venue?
Why do so many users post a question looking for help and many of us reply with a sincere and heartfelt response and never receive even an acknowledgement?
reddit.comCarpet end binding?
I have a carpet end, about 3'x3' and I'm looking for recommendations on binding, putting a piece of material around the outside to keep it from fraying. I've checked a couple places and they both send the carpet out of town. A local person or business which can do the work would be preferred.

Mine is the 2021 Venue Ultimate Denim beside a Nissan Kicks. I don't know for sure but I think the Nissan may also be a good value for your money.
McNay creek/drain had a new visitor today
Such a beautiful spot and we were visited by a blue heron today.
Firetv channels not loading
I am using a Firetv stick 4K Max newest model and lately I get an error when trying to launch/open Firetv Channels aka Music Videos. I've applied all updates and restarted without affect. When I select the banner for Top Country Music, that channel will play but the "unexpected error" alert displays when I attempt to change channel.
Anyone else having this issue or found an answer?
Thames river paddle... beautiful
I launched and recovered at Wonderland and Riverside. Beautiful paddle. River low and smell good.
Edit. In addition to nature's beauty in the middle of the city, it was great to see other paddlers out and about. There was a young family on the island collecting clam shells and shared they had seen 3 deer, 2 does and a buck in the brush. Awesome.

I like the colour of the Venue. I'm not sure about the newer Kona look.
Beautiful day on Kilally trail between Adelaide and Highbury
It's great to see families out biking enjoying nature. But, to some of the Dads out there... that wonderful family bike ride is not an olympic try-out. I'm pretty sure no one is timing the ride and it's not necessary to be 2km ahead of your family or partner. 😁
A beautiful day.

Mine is the 2021 Venue Ultimate Denim on the right. This Mini Cooper seems the same size? Interior space same?

What are the two buttons to the left of the SOS? Would you use them during normal driving?
More Venue adventures
My tiny tall 2021 Venue Ultimate Denim and I went out kayaking today. I love this little car. Such character.
New boat launch at Windermere Fields
The city is building a beautiful boat launch just off Adelaide St N at Windermere Fields on the upper Thames.
Sunday 9 August, Wilson and I got out and about. With rain the last couple days the river was a little higher. Even in the centre of the city nature is so awesome. 😊
Gee a lot of battery posts
I've probably added to what seems like continual poor battery posts. Keep in mind how you use your phone makes a difference in battery success or failure. We are not the same...
- mobile vs wifi equals more battery
- 5g vs LTE equals more battery
- 120 vs 60hz equals more battery
- live stream music or video equals more battery
- intense game play equals more battery
- constant AI use equals more battery
- continual social media use equals more battery
- etc etc
Consequently, we all use our phone differently and have different results... but the reality is that how you use your phone will directly impact your battery SOT.
New to SSRI and have questions
I'm older and throughout my life I understood I had obsessive compulsions and was an extreme introvert. While working, my mind was like my super power. I could see and understand things that many others couldn't. Now that I am retired my mind has little stimulation and I find myself focused on the symmetry of my home. Are the curtains exactly straight and spacing identical? Are the pictures straight? Shoes in a straight line? Are dishes being used equally and rotated? Ceiling light spacing and identical? Am I stepping on each part of the stair steps equally? Etc etc
All this comes at the cost of having a good sleep. Alcohol, cannabis and sleeping pills seem to have little affect. My doctor has prescribed Escitalopram Oxalate 10 mg (lexapro) and I'm afraid to start the meds.
Will it make me slow? Affect my personality? Any input is appreciated.
