Any ideas why a circumference around Wentworth just before Barton is blocked off? They have the gates down for the railroad tracks, the light at the corner of Barton is out and through that neighbourhood the police are blocking the roads.

I can't find anything so far about what's happening.

Feathers to Bricks

I've entered my first powerlifting meet and have hired a macro coach to help me meet my goals. I made it through hell week where I felt I wanted to give up because it was getting hard but decided to push through anyway to get the results I knew I wanted.

After having lost 65lbs and regaining some of the weight I decided I had to set a completely new goal. As a female I struggled for a long time thinking that if I could only reach X weight that I would finally look good and feel happy. Now I am focusing not on the number I thought I wanted to see on the scale, but the number I am putting on the bar.

Thanks

Here is a picture of it

Master bedroom's All upstairs bedroom outlets are not working. I was going to reset the breaker but can't figure out which one it is. I have checked entire place and this is the only breaker box.

Live in a town house with main level, upstairs and a basement. Upstairs has 3 bedrooms and bathroom. Main has bathroom/kitchen.

Am I missing something or reading this wrong?

Hi ladies.

I am wondering if anyone trying to lose a lot of weight (30+ pounds at least) has stopped weighing themselves entirely and measured success exclusively with body measurements and progress photos?

I have battled the scale for as long as I can remember and while I am not sensitive about my weight I am beginning to think I need to stop looking at it... forever.

I am wondering how many of you have permanently ditched your scales, or only weigh after long periods of time, and whether or not you found you were more successful and less stressed about weight loss when you have only used other forms of success measurement?

I'd be interested in hearing your stories as I tend to be af

Hi everyone!

My boyfriend is entering his first powerlifting competition in May and I will be there to support him. I know there are many references to how important it is to have a "handler" with you during competition but I've never been to a meet before and I haven't assisted him much outside of acting as a spot.

I am reaching out for tips on how I can be the best support and handler possible having not had any experience in this kind of situation. I have read that I am supposed to:

Listen for flight times, name call outs, and timing warm ups Bring food and drinks Coaches cues during your lifts (how?) Spotter (I can do it!) Hand off the bar for bench (what does this mean?) Give next l

Hi!

Stats: F29, 5'7, 176lbs. Currently cutting down to 145lbs and was previously 215lbs (don't know if this makes a difference).

I have been working out consistently for a few months now and over the last couple of weeks have noticed that my bras are fitting strangely. I am not sure how to describe it, but it seems that the area of my chest that is above the breast cup seems to be developing a lot of musculature and as a result, the cups on my bra don't seem to fit quite right... It's almost like they cup the breast, but the part of my chest above the breast is flat and more muscly and seems to just... pop over the top ever so slightly.

I am noticing this happening in some of my shirts w

r/Anxiety•

Hi everyone.

I was directed to this subreddit after posting my story about anxiety/agoraphobia and depression elsewhere. I didn't know this subreddit existed until today. I am going to go in depth into what my anxiety was like for me and how it spiraled out of control and also how I cured my anxiety and depression through changing what I ate. If you are really sensitive to anxiety stuff you may want to skip to the end.

TL;DR: I changed the way I ate and was able to get rid of a lifetime of depression and 16 years of anxiety.

I was depressed for most of my life. The first time I remember wanting to kill myself I was less than 10 years old. This is a mentality that persisted all throu

I am in Canada, if this matters.

I am currently 29F, making 54k a year and get paid weekly (785 a week after taxes) and am debating on whether to contribute to an RRSP (I cannot do this through work as I am contract) OR have more taxes deducted by my pay. I cashed out what I had in my pension program when I quit my last job to pay off a debt. I will now owe the government just over 2000 dollars because of this.

I am not as concerned specifically about retirement but am concerned about having to pay out large sums of money every year for taxes. I used Turbo Tax's Income Tax Calculator and, provided I do not change anything, will owe roughly $500 dollars each tax year. I would prefer to ha

tl;dr: Mother left father for other woman. Father now trying to build relationship with me and spend time with me to fill the void. Do not want. How to proceed?

I moved home from across the country last April. I was saying with my parents for a few weeks until my new apartment was ready and my new job began. The day after I had just driven thousands of miles to get home my mother told me she was leaving my father for another woman. I stayed composed despite feeling like vomiting (not as a judgement over her choice, but over the shock and how casual she was about it) while she explained to me this is something she had wanted from the beginning, how she only married because it was the th

r/Dreams•

All of my life I have been a very vivid dreamer. I can lucid dream, which is nice, but I have never found anyone who has ever had dreams like me. Let me explain:

I dream in full colour, full detail. All events move chronologically. It's as if I am actually experiencing in real time what it is that's happening to the point that I can wake up and write down everything start to finish and have no issue recollecting what I've dreamed about.

I dream about the apocalypse frequently as well as natural disasters. Tornadoes and comets are the most frequent. This is fine for me as I have become so accustomed to these end of the world scenarios that as they happen, I don't feel afraid (I used to ha
