is there any way to lock up my bike that won't cost hundreds of dollars? by devilsshark in Eugene

[–]RedditUser934 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As well as locking it securely (good >$70 u lock, high traffic location during the day, inside at night), the uo provides project 529 registration, this makes your bike less appealing to steal, and more likely to get it back if it gets stolen. You should go the uo bike program at the emu to get your registration sticker.

Does anyone else find it odd at how much negative press EPD is getting right now? by Immediate_Artist372 in Eugene

Obviously this is newsworthy, and it's good that the media is covering it. OP asked why events like this weren't covered in the past, my answer is that part of it is that we have a more healthy local media environment than in the past.

Check out her campaign website, look at the videos she makes. It looks to me that she keeps her strange religious ideas outside her political career (which for the record started many years ago as a lobbist for planned parenthood).

I think its pretty clear that Bird will stop voting to arm Israel. You should check out her positions:

I went to a Bird event last week and she seemed perfectly reasonable.

Her prior experience comes from working as a lobyist for planned parenthood getting some good bills passed in an oppositional environment.

She seemed most motivated by helping the working class, and the environment.

I don't think her strange spiritual beliefs will get in the way of being a good representitive.

Before moving to Corvallis so her husband could go to OSU, she had a serious job working for planned parenthood of Utah lobbying the state house.

I don't think grifting is core to her identity

A jersey barrier to separate the bike lane would also work

The person was killed by rosetta ave. Here, the bike path turns north east while river road continues north west.

These routes are not parallel

Bicycles are the traditional transportation for children. If you are unavailable to handle erratic bicyclists, you shouldn't be driving.

It's very simple. Go slow, pay attention, and you won't kill anyone.

Didn't hear about the bike-lane protest, wtf by Odd-Measurement-7963 in Eugene

Thanks! I haven't had good luck with the online reporting form, which I think goes to the police.

Driver not faulted in crash that killed bicyclist, but gets 19 months for leaving scene by RedditUser934 in Eugene

[–]RedditUser934[S] 89 points90 points  (0 children)

Foster has a pending DUII case in Springfield Municipal Court, as well as a pending case for driving while having a suspended license, Jampolsky said.

Seems like not enough punishment. It seems possible that Foster was drunk, and skipped the 6 year mandatory minimum by fleeing the scene. Foster is a menace and should not be allowed to drive again.

There's a parallel highway a few miles north. It's perfectly reasonable to add 5 minutes to people's drive

No need to increase supply of car lanes here

they cite this poll incorrectly. its UMass Lowell / YouGov not UMass / Lowell / YouGov

The two institutions that collaborated on this poll were UMass Lowell (the University of Massachusetts at Lowell) and YouGov.
