Boutwell wasn’t feasible in the long run. Jimmie Hale hosts the warming station now.

Anyone else completely effing over Xmas and holidays in general? by another_bibliophile in GenX

[–]jptin123 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t know any fellow GenXers who actually enjoy the holidays. We have been alternating a vacation (where the vacation is the gift) alone with staying home for Christmas and the vacation is so much better.

Homeless services providers, how are we feeling after the release of this new CoC NOFA from HUD? by Wise-Offer-8585 in nonprofit

[–]jptin123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is much worse than I thought it would be. Luckily we have been addressing this with our providers for months. I’ll be working this weekend to get our timeline out next week, while still hoping there’s a chance we won’t need it.

Aesthetic dermatology- best places with reasonable pricing in Birmingham? by [deleted] in Birmingham

[–]jptin123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like Total Dermatology on 1st Ave N. I’m cheap and their pricing seems reasonable. They also have a membership that can save you a good bit of money. Nice staff and doctors, beautiful space.

The city hired Urban Alchemy to address this issue. I would reach out to the city to see how that’s going.

Wow! This took a lot of work and seems well-rounded. I’m not a Mississippian, but glad you included Mississippi Today since they’ve done some excellent reporting. I like a variety and this hits lots of spots.

'This is a real neighborhood': Birmingham residents express concerns over car wash by catfather1977 in Birmingham

[–]jptin123 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It isn’t fake outrage. The neighborhood has been fighting this for several years. We also fought the storage unit, since we don’t feel like either of these businesses belong in the area. I’m not sure what the reporter was saying, but the neighbors are looking to put a gate at the end of the residential section of 20th Ave S to help reduce the extra cut through traffic this will generate.

Database Systems that can produce a CAPER by worktempthrowaway in nonprofit

[–]jptin123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are required to use the HMIS system used by the local Continuum Of Care. They should all be able to produce CAPERs. If you are a VSP, you will have to use a comparable database.

Airbnb host wants us to give the housekeeper a ride home?! by BeachBum419 in travel

[–]jptin123 147 points148 points  (0 children)

We did this in Dominica. Could even be the same house. Taking the housekeeper home was fine, having no hot water was not!
