I’m just wondering if there’s anyone in the area that preserves dead insects. I found a beautiful dragonfly on my driveway that was unfortunately dead, and I’m hoping I could pay someone to preserve it and frame it for me (I can frame it myself if needed). I tried searching online but couldn’t find anything about a business/individual who does this.

Don't get me wrong, police should wear whatever they think they need for their job. But I see pictures of New York cops in the 70s in the toughest areas like subways and the most armor they're wearing is a leather jacket. Some of them are in short sleeve shirts, even in emergency situations. Is it a general increased trend of workplace safety, or is it the police wanting to look intimidating, and does this add to escalation of situations? Honest question.

Edit: Whoa! Touchy subject. I get that and I understand why. But please calm down everybody I'm just asking questions. I'm getting some good interesting comments that I appreciate. Thanks!

Was an avid collector of different mangas - all of them being basically new, if not just lightly used from a read or two. Trying to find places to sell them for some $$ ?

Does elderly companion care exist in the city? I'm starting to wonder how I can get more involved.

I have worked in Memory Care as an activities aide and I loved it. But I don't have the capacity for a proper part time job right now. I know I could also volunteer at a nursing home or special care center, but I'm looking for something smaller. Like a one-on-one thing with one or two people. Maybe take someone for coffee once a week, or sit on the porch and work on a puzzle with someone.

I'm not certified or interested in personal care, just hanging out. Does that even exist here?

Hello there, so I got hurt at work and the next day I went to St.Paul’s hospital but the thing is I forgot to take the doctors note from them. So two days later I call them again for a doctor’s note and the nurse said that she cannot help with that because it’s already too late. now my job is requesting the doctors note which I have no way of providing what else I can do to get the doctor’s note from St.Paul’s Hospital. I’m still on probation at work so that doesn’t sit well with my job profile and I don’t wanna get fired so please any advises are welcome.

My manager also gave me a document, today, to be filled from doctor so do I just go there and ask them to fill it up? Would they even allow me to be there I don’t know. it’s my first time and I’m kind of lost. I went into emergency when was at the hospital.

Thank you, yall!

I had the privilege of interviewing an expert from an agency in Canada that monitors the distribution of mosquitoes, particularly those carrying diseases like West Nile, and how climate affects their ranges.

She is currently running the TIMO-CS student sampling program, asking for help from the public to collect mosquitoes for identification: https://timo-cs.shinyapps.io/timo-cs-meteo/

If you're interested, the show should air on CFCR tonight.

Is this over? I have not seen anyone riding around in months.

edit: huh. thats good I thought the program got turfed. thanks.

The crash happened on 19 October 2024, two people died https://ca.news.yahoo.com/woman-killed-2-drunk-driving-205112225.html

EDIT: thanks everyone for the helpful replies. Definitely going to see if my primary doctor can do a phone appointment prior. Leaving this post up so if anyone googles and needs the same advice I did they have it.

Just suffered/ing an intense panic attack and reading other reddit posts about “don’t go to RUH for panic attacks” advisements caused me to stay home to not increase wait times and the logistics of it all. That being said I assume my increase in panic attacks/disassociation is linked to an anti-anxiety prescription change several months ago since I hadn’t felt this anxious/jumpy and experiencing panic attacks since 2017. Has anyone gone to a walk-in to get dosage/scrip changes? Just asking as my primary physicians next appointment is not until Sept. 23rd and after the last few days of debilitating panic attacks I want to not have this dreadful feeling. Please be kind to me I will cry ❤️

Planning a guided fishing trip at Diefenbaker. All in around $1000 for the day. Is it normal or expected to tip 15-20% of this? Does it all go to the guide?
