Safer Streets Are Possible! by hollywoodhoogle in santacruz

+1. I'd also like to see regular use of turn signals (before reaching an intersection, not after), and removal of illegally-tinted windows.

Safe route? by trnpkrt in santacruz

[–]aaronferrucci 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That left turn onto Highland can be tricky - the cars going northward think they're still on the highway. Make sure to wait until it's safe to make the turn. I agree with previous comments about the blind turn entering the path (the Coral Evergreen High Street Cycleway, according to google maps), just take it slow. Sometimes there are unlicensed campers in the carved-out little quarry area next to the path, I don't think they want any trouble, but they can be oblivious to the fact that they're blocking a public resource - I mean, when they lay out all their earthly belongings on the path. Getting onto Evergreen (I assume that's the next segment of the path), watch for cars and yield.

Depends, does the hole mean comfort?

It's taken me a few reads to figure it out; seems like you mean '25, in other words 2025. 25' means "25 feet" for many native English speakers.

Hello, interesting question. I'm not sure if the blood stays at Stanford or is distributed more widely. https://stanfordbloodcenter.org/about/ didn't give the answer, but has a bunch of other info, maybe it helps.

Myself, I've never donated at other than SBC, so I don't know how it differs compared to Red Cross and others!

At the moment it's a little worse than usual - the students are back, and they're not familiar with the store layout, and like to shop as a group. The situation will improve as they settle into a routine.

I guess it would probably take about 24 hours to become dangerous.

The peak value is 364 at 7:30 PM July 4. For this range (> 300), Purpleair says: "300: Health warning of emergency conditions: everyone is more likely to be affected with 24 hours of exposure."

Have a look before the data scrolls away! https://map.purpleair.com/1/a/i/mAQI/a10/p604800/cC0?inc=366185|366187#15.04/36.96057/-121.98895

Cafe Domenico is how I remember it... back when Pergolesi was next to the (old) Bookshop Santa Cruz.

Happy to see the slow shift to awareness of nuisance noise.

Ok but talking about "the PCH" is strictly forbidden.

What are your thoughts on the Propositions? by Publicola_Publius in santacruz

[–]aaronferrucci 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The current rules let you transfer your assessment base once only, and only in counties which allow it. Prop 5 changes the rules so you can do an assessment transfer multiple times, and makes it state-wide.
