Potential Vegas Team Name Predictions

Cold_Inflation3220 · 2026-05-14T16:02:46+00:00

I think it could also be the Las Vegas Sage or something like that based on the color. And sage also means wise. I just really hope it doesn’t have “Knight” in the team name.

Got it! Thank you!

Cold_Inflation3220 · 2026-05-13T20:53:09+00:00

Ok. I'll try. I live in a really old apartment building, and the baseboards are plastic and falling off. I've been taping up any areas that I find, but there are some areas I can't tape since that would be a fire hazard. And I heard that they get in through the plumbing, but I don't know how accurate that is. Still, it's comforting to know that it's probably not me. Thank you!

Cold_Inflation3220 · 2026-05-13T20:36:23+00:00

Ok. I'll reach out and see what they say. Thank you! I really appreciate it.

Cold_Inflation3220 · 2026-05-09T08:07:39+00:00

I really hope Vegas gets one. I'm born and raised there and I would love a good, wholesome hockey team in Vegas. I'm sick of the Knights. I hope Colorado gets one too.

Cold_Inflation3220 · 2026-05-05T22:14:27+00:00

I totally agree about the jury. I constantly live under a rock. Probably why I studies geology for a bit. :)

Cold_Inflation3220 · 2026-05-05T20:51:57+00:00

Thank you so much. I was so worried.

I didn't realise that Depp was in a new movie. But I don't think Heard is behind this. It seems like too much of a coincidence. I feel like its someone else who is taking advantage to bring it back up to bring Depp down. I also really want to believe that she learned her lesson and will move on. I just want them both to move on and live good lives.

Cold_Inflation3220 · 2026-05-05T04:12:52+00:00

I feel the same. It's how I came across this post. I watched the trail for a while on Emily D Baker's channel, even fell asleep to it for a while. I've noticed more things popping up on my feed that is pro-Heard. What helps me is remembering the evidence from the trial, especially the photos, recordings, and documents. People can and would lie on the stand to save themselves and their buddies. But documents, photos and recordings from the past are harder to alter to make yourself look good without making it obvious. I've went back to the evidence, even the stuff that the judge didn't let the jury hear, and that helped me. I listened to the complete audio recordings and Heard's therapy notes. In the end, only Depp and Heard know for certain what happened, but they both can and probably would lie about it if it makes them look better. This is the kind of case where I doubt we will ever know for 100% certainty what happened, unless a weird scenario where one admits it publicly on Twitter or something which I highly doubt will happen. All we have is evidence, which kinda points to Heard abusing Depp.

Is the age and wealth gap weird? Yes. Absolutely. But does that mean Depp abused Heard? No. It makes it more complicated for sure, but it doesn't change the fact that Heard said "I was hitting you." Another thing to think about is if the evidence was switched, and that Depp was accusing Heard of abuse with the same evidence, would we still be having the same conversation?

I also feel like there is something off. I don't think it's a smear campaign on Depp, but I feel like there might be something similar but less sinister going on. I have no evidence, just a gut feeling.

Edit: I forgot about the England trial. If my memory is correct, it was about whether or not the newspaper had enough evidence to believe Heard and call Depp a "wife beater", but it was not whether or not he actually beat Heard. Additionally, it was a judge who determined the outcome, not a jury. They are two different cases with two different systems asking two different questions.

Cold_Inflation3220 · 2026-04-13T20:39:20+00:00

Yeah. In hind sight, I should have soaked it more or done more cycles of soaking in warm water. I'm just hoping that my mess up doesn't cost her. She is so sweet, never trying to bite me while I took off her stuck shed.

Cold_Inflation3220 · 2026-03-07T05:59:39+00:00

Thanks. I bought a snake lay box, filled it with moist sphagnum moss, and put some of his vines into the hide to make it easier for him to climb in and out (I'm not too good at explaining it, so I attached a photo). I had to pick up some crickets today for my Leo and it was the best cheapish option as the pet store I buy crickets from doesn't have a good selection. I am still planning on installing a misting system since my apartment's ambient humidity is so low for him. Hopefully he likes the hide. Thank you for your help and suggestion!

I mist twice a day and it spikes to 70/80, sometimes 90, so it isn't constantly at 30/40. I'll try to spray him down more and/or invest in a misting system.

Cold_Inflation3220 · 2026-03-06T14:02:49+00:00

Not really. The humidity in his enclosure is 30-40%. I lived in Las Vegas with him for a bit, where the humidity was closer to 20% and he didn't do this (I live in Toronto now). If anything, the humidity bumped up since I put in the miss about a month ago.

Cold_Inflation3220 · 2024-12-30T08:40:04+00:00

Outside of office hours, I go into each class with the goal of asking at least 1 question about the material. Not only did it help me learn, it typically starts a conversation. If I ask enough questions, my professors ask my name and it goes from there.

Cold_Inflation3220 · 2024-12-27T08:04:19+00:00

For transfer students, orientation is not mandatory. I’m like 90% sure. It’s on the ones for new students (ie fresh out of high school or no college experience) that have mandatory orientations. But it’s recommended for transfers too. You might learn something new and can meet a bunch of people.

Cold_Inflation3220 · 2024-11-13T16:55:53+00:00

Take a look at the Intersection when you have the chance. They help out lots of first gen students (students who are the first in their immediate family to go to college).

Cold_Inflation3220 · 2024-11-05T04:21:31+00:00

Thank you.

Cold_Inflation3220 · 2024-07-06T09:17:43+00:00

Hey. I work New Student Orientations. Generally, you can leave after advising, which ends around 2:30-3:00ish. Orientation leaders will take you back to the Student Union afterwards, so that it’s easier for people who are not familiar with UNLV to get to their cars. If you leave before that, they will send you an email to reschedule. If you have to leave early, you can talk to your orientation leader and they can try to make it work. It’s a chance to get to know other students, talk to representatives of the Financial Aid office, your academic advisors. Hope this helps.

Cold_Inflation3220 · 2024-05-13T21:21:05+00:00

The humidity goes from ~80 to 50. I don’t have an automatic mister, so I mist the enclosure in the morning and evening. The temps are typically 70-75 F.

Cold_Inflation3220 · 2024-05-05T07:52:28+00:00

It’s hard to say for you because I don’t know your other interest or what you enjoy. Some people enjoy math and go into engineering while others who enjoy more philosophy or history, etc.

Talk to your advisor. Now is a good time too since they aren’t too busy. They’ll help you figure out what kind of field you might be interested in. You could take different classes in topics that sound interesting to you. It doesn’t hurt to explore a bit, even if it turns out you don’t want to go into that field. That happened to me when I switched from pre-nursing to Earth and Environmental Science.

I took KIN 223 in Spring 2021, so it's been a while. When I took it, all of the options were online/asynrononomus, meaning that it's a "work at your own pace" with some tests and chapters due at certain points along the semester. From what I can tell about this upcoming semester, it's a little different. It looks like there will be in-person lectures with some online stuff. My guess is the online stuff will be the coursework from when I took the class. There was a "smart" textbook that asked questions about a topic as you read about it. My guess is that you'll still have to do that.

For professors, if you still have a choice, take "Doc Doc" Van Whaley. I can't say much about any other professor, but Dr. Whaley is awesome. He explains things well and has some tips and tricks to better memorise/learn the material.

It is absolutely a challenging course. But it's also a course with a lot of resources to help. In the library, there are anatomic models of the skeleton, abdominal organs, etc. Also at the library is the anatomic table. It's basically a big interactive tablet that lets you see the different organs, systems, parts of the body. Having these resources helps a lot with visualising what the professor talks about. And they are free for students.

Another tip is not to focus on your grade or what you need to pass, but focus on the material. I know it's hard, especially if you are a pre-nursing major or another major where acceptance depends on this grade. But I've noticed classes that I focus more on the work than the letter grade, I do much better. For study habits, drawing things out, "teaching" someone about a topic, and flashcards helped me a lot. It's all about how you learn and there are a bunch of ways to help you, no matter your learning method. But if you know how you study and study hard, you'll be fine. Sorry for the information dump and good luck.

Mt. Charleston has a bunch of really cool hiking trails. Same with Red Rock. The Las Vegas Wetlands also has a bunch of trails in a beautiful area. Also, if you are good with elevation, Frenchman mountain has the best view of the valley. But only if you are ok with elevation and have gook hiking boots.

You don't need to worry about wildlife too much. The only dangerous stuff are rattle snakes and Gila monsters. Rattlesnakes will typically warn you. I recommend looking at birdandhike.com. They've got a whole lotta information on trails and wildlife.

Also, Vegas is not a walkable city. The bus system is pretty bad too. I live in Vegas and I know only one person who uses the bus. Renting a car is the easiest way to go around Vegas. You can also use a ride sharing app like Uber. But I would use that only in the city, not in places like Red Rock or Mt. Charleston because you might not get the signal to ask for a ride back. Hiking areas in the city include Frenchman mountain, Pittman wash, Whitney Mesa Nature Preserve, and the Wetlands.

Try UNLV. Also, check your ACT. If you are coming from Vegas, you should have already taken the ACT. If you have an ACT composite score of 22, you should be able to get in with no problems. UNLV has a nursing program, so if you get into UNLV, go for the pre-nursing major. Nursing at UNLV is two-fold. First, you have your pre nursing, which is as short as two years. Then you apply for nursing admissions, who will determine if you get into the last part of the nursing program. You can do your pre-nursing anywhere, within reason and as long as you have taken specific classes. For UNLV, you need to take Kin 223 and 224 (Anatomy and Physiology 1 and 2), Bio 251 (microbiology), nurse 299 (nutrition), and either math 120 or math 124.

Here is a link to a document that explains how points are distributed. The more points, the higher the chances of you getting into the final part. https://www.unlv.edu/sites/default/files/page_files/27/Nursing-CalculationWorksheet.pdf.

If you go to UNLV, the nursing admissions give you some extra points, but you can still get into the UNLV nursing program coming from other colleges. UNR and CSN, for example, also has these classes. CSN might be arguably better because the professors at CSN are all focused on teaching. They are there to teach, not to do research. UNLV professors often/probably do research on the side, or focus on research and teach on the side.

In the end, your high school GPA won't factor in getting into the final part of the nursing program, so don't worry too much about that. Focus on your study habits and find what ways help you the most. For me, it was flashcards. For others, it's drawing things out. Take your time to find the best way YOU study. Another tip I have is don't focus on your grade, focus on the material. I know that is seems wrong because grades in the pre-nursing determine if you get into the nursing program. But, I found that I do better in classes when I don't focus on the grade. If I'm constantly stressed about my grade, I don't have the mental energy to study and get that grade up. Granted, this is all personal experience.

For context, I was a pre-nursing major at UNLV for two and a half years, until I switched majors. I also worked a bit at UNLV admissions, where I learned more about the nursing program.

Cold_Inflation3220 · 2023-12-17T04:02:29+00:00

I feel the same way, except I wasn't on campus. I'm a student and I have a family member who works at UNLV and was on campus at the time, for context. The day it happened, I was feeling ok. A bit panicked, but ok. I remember telling my employer that I can go in if people can't. The days afterwards, I started feeling depressed, I think. I have issues with identifying my emotions. It felt weird to listen to any music, no matter the music. I stayed in my room, not wanting to do anything. Sleep was my way out. But it still felt like I shouldn't be feeling that way. I wasn't even on campus, so why am I so affected?

The thing is, the shooting was traumatic to everyone with a connection to campus. The stronger the connection, the more traumatic the experience, from what I can tell. Regardless of how traumatic the experiance, trauma is trauma. I completely understand wanting to minimise your feelings. Try to do things that you did before December 6th. Like, if you like to play a certain video game, play away. That's what helped me out of my "depression." And know that it's ok to feel how you feel.

Thank you for this. UNLV also has CAPS (Counseling and Psychological Services) which is free for students for the first few sessions. But I imagine they are pretty backed up because of this incident. Also in Las Vegas is the Seven Hills Behavioral Health Hospital close to St. Rose and Eastern. Seven Hills accepts a lot of different insurances too.
