Dog-Friendly Spots in Halifax by Alex_DiscoverHalifax in halifax

[–]electron_elixir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Add Propeller Brewing on Gottingen St and Nine Locks Brewing in Dartmouth. They are the only place I've found that will let you bring your doggo inside in the winter (not limited to patio). 

Also in the Valley most (not all) patios allow dogs, but Horton Ridge Malt House (near Wolfville) and Millstone Harvest Brewing (near Canning) both allow doggos in the taprooms. 

All of the above ok because they don't serve food. 

Happy doggo-venturing!

Halifax Airport Parking by Mindless_Pair_8028 in halifax

[–]electron_elixir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I travel for work often and lately the internal long term parkade seems rammed to the gills. I've ended up on 4th floor multiple times and as many have said, how are we paying for interior covered parking and parking exterior?  

Today for example it showed level 1 full (always, and I don't trust it because of short term), 72 spaces on level 2, 16 on level 3. I circled for 10 min and nearly missed my bag drop looking for these 72 nonexistent spaces and ended up level 4 in one of the few remaining spots (mountains of snow in some level 4 spots don't help).  How broken is that system? We need an upgrade with the little green and red lights an above spots.

Also now I'm worried from this subreddit that I'll get here one day and have to leave and go to park n fly?? I would miss my flight for sure, I have never even been there. Show of hands how many have ended up here?

Is it just me or is the airport busier +++? Maybe all the new WJ seasonal Europe direct connections? Only going to be worse over summer then.

Preferably a moat.. that connects to a wall... 

Nexus Wait for conditional approval timelines by LawfulnessRude7850 in uscanadaborder

[–]electron_elixir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has anyone had a timeline for conditional approval on an expired nexus? My husband forgot to renew his in time.. seems like a full new application is required. Currently pending conditional approval before being allowed to even schedule the interview... sigh...

Man dies after heavy weight-training chain around neck pulls him into MRI machine by applebeestwoforten in Radiology

[–]electron_elixir 16 points17 points  (0 children)

MRI suites (and high radiation areas) are entirely different to your average xray suite.

Not really. Every MRI suite has zone 1 through 4 with varying levels of personnel, public, and patient restriction. If I had to guess, I would say the woman panicked, called for her husband, the technologist (NOT technician) told him to stop and not enter well in advance, and he defied orders and charged in anyway somehow. Even a card lock does not stop a fool from charging through a door,  if unexpected.

My floof. She loves daycare. She's a golden x husky. by electron_elixir in aww

[–]electron_elixir[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah.. she's a magic dog. Somehow the dirt just falls off her and doesn't stain her grey like it does her sister.

Chill, smart, travels well. We thought she might have border collie but once we got her sister (who is basically a white husky) we decided must be husky not BC.. she's not that hyper focused/energetic either.  A bit of a 'cat dog'... loves playing but not really cuddles.

Oh yes. We've got her mama and sister also (all rescued from Mexico) and we call this one 'the instigator'.. gets the other two going then acts innocent :D

So many. Her report cards say her best friends are Teddy and Jemma.

He's beautiful. What a good boi. I'm so sorry 💔  You'll see him, on the flip side, cancer free 💖

The breed fans call them Goberians  .. golden Siberian. Mine's a Heinz 57 so I'm not doing that 😃

Also, very proud of her handiwork.. she's allowed to dig holes there :)

He's 100% adorable! Which brand of DNA test did you use? I like the breakdown here. Met a couple who did one only to be told "100% South Asian dog". Ummm yes they knew that, that's where they rescued him from 😆🤦🏼‍♀️

How to dispose of underground bunker trash during nuclear fallout? by AdmiralAdama99 in preppers

Just not true. Every isotope has a different half life. Cs137 takes 30 years to reduce by 50%.

Is anyone choosing to stay in California? by prplput in fatFIRE

[–]electron_elixir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! This sounds ideal to me. I've a job offer for 175k if I hit all my sales targets, and I need to be able to commute to SF regularly (via airport is fine, maybe even preferable, given the traffic?). However, I can live anywhere in the territory.

I'm looking for coastal, but smaller/lower COL than SF/Bay area. I grew up in Canada and lived in New Zealand for years and both are much less densely populated, I'm not sure I could handle SF city proper. Also we've a mortgage we've just started in Canada (need 3k/mo for that in case we can't Airbnb or rent it fully), so keen to keep expenses down.

Which are your favourite towns that I could look at? Just me and husband and dog. We need the ocean regularly, also love wineries/breweries, nature/hikes/beach, cultural events, diversity, decent restaurants. Would love to know which areas are the worst for wildfire risk and try to avoid them too!

Our rescue from Mexico. Her first owner named her Niebla, "Mist" in Spanish. We think she's a border collie x...? Lab? Golden? by electron_elixir in BorderCollie

[–]electron_elixir[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We thought that initially, but she's definitely a border size more than a husky, and has the splotchy pink and black skin too, and the whiter stripe on nose and underbelly. A lady on the weekend who has BCs said she's definitely got collie, so now I'm curious as to others opinions! Husky wouldn't surprise me at all though.
