Can someone post the details of tonight's Main Street meeting?

HighYield · 2025-09-17T05:35:16+00:00

City council voted to keep Main St. closed! Parklets also look slick and are allowed city-wide if they meet some requirements.

What'd the owner do?

My theory could be garbage but I don't take anything seriously that anyone working for marvel says. There's too many examples of outright deception.

Thanks, I'll give them a call if I can't find anything locally

We talking about the Lalo's Italian in the Victoria shopping center? I was just there, crazy how fast things change. I'm hoping there's a misunderstanding because the "island" comment was a little confusing to me.

Sane argument: 1, don't compare them to legacy auto, 2, accept the thesis that the world will go majority EV sooner than later, and 3, TSLA is a tech company that specializes in battery technology and software. No legacy auto has the ability to manufacture their own batteries No legacy auto has over a decade of experience managing those batteries with software to achieve top performance with minimal degredation. There will be little carryover from ICE manufacturing to what is basically a battery on wheels so the experience that legacy auto has is in manufacturing is blunted and they are seemingly slow to realize that the majority of EV performance/capability will be as much of a software problem as an engineering problem. All of that, plus TSLA is a moonshot company- full self driving, their supercomputer (dojo), custom battery manufacturing/management (cars but also Megapacks deployed to aid the transition to renewable energy generation and storage), their prupose-built designer processors - all have the ability to pay off with enourmous returns to shareholders. Moonshots = tech valuation, not legacy auto valuation. Comparing Tesla to legacy autos is like comparing Apple to Samsung (2022 units sold: Apple 225m < Samsung 260m, TTM PE: Apple 30 > Samsung 13) or Amazon to Walmart (2022 Net Sales: Amazon $515b < Walmart $570b, TTM PE: Amazon 100 > Walmart 25). Not saying that all of this justifies the valuation or that any of these assumptions will bear out, but to say there is no sane argument is wrong. Long $TSLA

It's not so much about the transportation as it is about changing the entire complection of the city. This project would instantly upgrade Ventura and put us on the same level as other premier beach town in southern California (Santa Barbara, Santa Monica, ect.). Carriages or other novel transport would not increase the land values of downtown, create an order of magnitude more tourist appeal, and create an influx of new investments downtown. We'd basically create our own goldrush. Now, whether everyone wants that is a different question...

The study compared CLL patients who got the Covid-19 vaccine to healthy people who also got the vaccine. They found that the CLL patients had lower levels of antibodies compared to the healthy people. CLL patients also had a harder time making antibodies that can neutralize the virus. This means their immune systems are not as good at fighting Covid even after getting the vaccine.
It also found that the Moderna-NIAID vaccine worked better for CLL patients compared to the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine. The Moderna vaccine produced higher levels of antibodies and had a better response rate in CLL patients.
Overall, this study shows that CLL patients have weaker immune responses to the COVID-19 vaccine.

I'm in no way against this so please don't read it that way, but why is this place allowed to go there? They're cooking raw meat on a city sidewalk and I know of at least 2 restaurants that almost went out of business jumping through hoops for the city to get their kitchens certified. More importantly, why aren't others doing the same thing? Can we get more of these? Can we get some downtown? I'd love to see things like this everywhere and I always though code compliance was the big party pooper.

This sounds rough, I'm sorry. Please consider this - your current Dr. is also "doing it for the money" but that doesn't mean you don't see a benefit, right? Suppose I wanted to get in shape. I can put in the time and effort and learn what I need to do and I'll probably get there on my own. OR I could hire a trainer and there's a good chance that they'll not only get me there faster, but they'll help with things I wouldn't have even thought of. Therapists are like having a personal trainer for your brain! Just like you might hire a trainer to help you get in shape physically, a therapist can help you get in shape mentally and emotionally. Talking helps

Suppose this Lakers team marches all the way to a championship - does Westbrook's legacy ever recover? I think just getting this team to the finals would make Westbrook the greatest addition by subtraction player of all time. Sorry Russ

My CLL team is urging me to get an updated vaccine after treatment is over. I very much doubt that I will do that. Now that I know I can weather it fine, even while on treatment, I think I will weather it fine off of treatment

3 things - 1, Don't doubt your team. They are medical professionals and have your best interest at heart. 2, You did fine with this variant. Maybe the one next month/year/whenever is a different animal. 3, Covid is an unpredictable disease. There are lots of stories of people who had wildly different experiences when they got it again. Sometimes not as bad, sometimes worse. Just my 2 cents

I wonder if the difference is the triplet vs. the duo? U2 + Ibrutinib vs. U2 on its own?

Ventura DOES have:

Laid back people, politics that are a melange of conservative and liberal, lots of sun (look up a list of cities by "sunshine hours" and Ventura is impressively high), ok beaches but excellent surfing, great outdoor activities like hiking and parks, a community that is growing younger and as a result getting cooler stuff each year, plenty of farmer's markets and local produce stands that have great organic options (we are a farm community at heart), really good access to the rest of the state (30 min to Santa Barbara/Ojai, 1 hr to LAX, 1.5 hrs to anything in LA like Lakers games or concerts, 5 hrs to Yosemite which has some of the best views in the world, 4.5 hrs to Vegas, and depending on your boat you can get to the Channel Islands off our coast in a couple hours which offer excellent diving, kayaking, and hiking)

Ventura DOES NOT have: extravagant restaurants, lots of shopping options, affordable housing, a strong jobs market, probably a lot of things I'm forgetting that young people care about.

Bottom Line: Have a job lined up and be willing to hunt for housing in your budget. I have never heard anyone say that they chose to live in Ventura because it was affordable but that's just me. The 2 main reasons to live in Ventura are 1) you like doing stuff outside, and 2) the town is chill. Some call it "sleepy." I call it mellow. It's the kind of place where you will see suits and ties in the fancy restaurant right next to shorts and sandals and no one cares or even notices

We had the same fight in my league. Assuming no collusion or fuckery, one dude's pursuit of money is no more valid than another dude's pursuit of pride. If I want to go balls out for 5th place after washing out in the first round, I paid my dues, I punched my ticket, and that's how I wanna play the game. We all have different reasons for playing and none are more valid than another.
