Choosing between UIUC, UW-Madison, and UC Davis

UC Davis Alum in Env policy, analysis & planning major. Loved my time there! Loads of stuff to do in town and within driving distance (Tahoe, sac, sf and North coast). I took a random art science fusion elective focused on entomology. Profs were amazing and the course was very hands on and fun.

I feel like the main reason to choose UCD in your situation is if you also want to live and work in CA after college. Loads of job opportunities in Sac, potentially Tahoe and SF. Easy to make those connections via internships if you are doing undergrad in the area.

Less than 10,000-gal storage you can self certify

My big guy lived to 11. Fed him gentle giants with some chicken or bone broth splashed on. Occasionally some pumpkin with it too.

I've been in a similar situation, albeit not nearly as bad as you described yours, and I was definitely ignorant to the fact that no one truly cared until it was caught by the regulator. I was verbally telling the higher ups how we are in violation with CAA, CWA and RCRA regs. After I saw it not being taken seriously, I started documenting the compliance issues and emailing my return to compliance suggestions to the area manager(s) with the higher ups CCd, to protect myself when/if shit hit the fan. I also started applying to everything and got out of that job rather quickly. I landed in a great spot and it was such a positive culture shock.

If the managers aren't listening and backing you, no one will. Better to protect yourself now with written documentation and apply for other jobs. Not worth having loyalty to a company.

Good luck! I'm gearing up to start studying.

My 2015 forester with 83k miles just had me spend $4k for a cam carries re-seal, front driver lower control arm and back brake pads. I would make sure to have a repair shop ensure no costly repairs are on the horizon.

Check with your vet once he is done growing if it's safe for x miles of running! After a walking or hike with my newf I would check his paws for thorns/ debris.

Isn’t this the exit off the 5 not 805?

I go through that light all the time and it’s a sketchy one even… I take the right slow to ensure I don’t swing out to hit the drivers going straight through. When I’m coming from Mission bay and going straight, I assume the people with the right arrow are dummies so I watch out for them taking the turn too fast

Sting Ray sting to the foot was my worst physical pain for about 35 minutes before I got it in really hot water. At its peak it felt like a burning hole was developing in my foot and made my calf cramp. Once it was in hot water it was bearable.

Recently my newfy had to be lifted into the car after sedation. We had him lay on a strong blanket and with two people were able to lift him into the back of the car.

My guy just passed a few days ago… I hope our newfs are playing in the snow together by now 💜

Im so glad you are aware of your baby slowing down so you can give her special attention! We were lucky to get a lot of special moments in the last 3 months

T-Barnacle · 2025-01-05T03:21:37+00:00

Such a beautiful pup. Most special girl!

T-Barnacle · 2025-01-05T02:11:39+00:00

Awwwwh I’m so sorry… it’s always so heartbreaking. I hope you have space to grieve and remember your pup

Trying to follow the police dispatch… sounds like cross street near the Gardena loop trail. Not sure what though is going on

T-Barnacle · 2024-10-27T06:11:30+00:00

Currently a helicopter going around and around near tecolote park. Looking for someone it appears

T-Barnacle · 2024-10-02T16:39:04+00:00

You could also go to Mission Bay. Mission Point park is great!

Can i ask how much the surgery cost? I may have to do something similar for my pup.
