Looking for 2 tickets to the Wobbly Barn Halloween party on Saturday
Are any of us still living in or near the Rutland area? Any of us move away? I was just back to Rutland last week after being away for 20 years.
I’m not sure, but for some reason the image of Rutland circa 2000 and now are so different. Does anyone else feel the same? I’d love to hear your thoughts.
I'm a wood turner, but I typically use machinist chucks for work holding. I've got a new 4" four jaw scroll chuck and a 1"x8TPI threaded cast iron back plate, and I need to get the chuck mounted accurately on the back plate. The commercial machine shops that I've called aren't interested in a small, one off job like this.
If you're in the greater Rutland area and you've got a good lathe and experience with this kind of thing , I'm happy to pay a fair price. Drop a comment with your email or just contact me at brucejtaylor333@gmail.com
Hey all,
Traveling to Rutland this weekend to visit family and am wondering if there is anyone around who is interested in playing some tennis.
I'm more of a beginner, can volley fairly well and effectively serve (but with little power or finesse 😅)
Looking for Saturday or Sunday morning. DM me if interested (or if there are court recommendations, ideally with a wall to hit against)
Thanks!
I’m part of a University of Cambridge research project, and we’re studying how the internet is regulated—who decides what you see online and how much control you should have. Right now, we dont have any participants from Vermont. We really want to hear from all of the States. It’s really important to get some local voices included in this global study!
We just need 6 minutes of your time, and its completely anonymous. Your input could help shape future internet policies that impact us all.
Thanks so much for considering this and helping to make sure Vermont is represented!
Greetings Rutlandians..Rutlanders? Anyway- my husband and I will be staying in your lovely city next weekend to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We’re interested in hikes around the Green Mountains area and things to do in Rutland in the evening. Thanks in advance!
What haunted locations do you know of in Rutland City?
In a couple of weeks I will arrive in Rutland around 8:45PM (only one train as everyone probably knows). I want to get to East Wallingford. Anyone know if there will be Uber drivers or taxis around that time?
Just curious if there's any new information on the cinema, I know the company shut it's doors for good, but didn't know if there's any plan to bring it back by another company or not.
Anyone know of a place or person that does manscaping. Called around but the salons I called won't do men.
Hello everyone!
I’m a genealogist & I am trained in discovering local Vermont family lineages and stories through historical records.
This is the interest form I put together for anyone interested in learning more about their Vermont family history. I create family trees, historical road trip itineraries, ancestral maps, etc! It’s a super cool way to connect with your own history and great knowledge pass down to future generations.
Here are some things you can discover from my research:
If you are interested, please view the interest form with some examples. 🙂Professional Instagram w/ reviews: heritage.hunters
If you have any questions, please feel free to send me a message!
Hello! Researchers at the University of Ottawa would like to conduct 90-minute telephone interviews with anyone who has used mifepristone (also known as the abortion pill, medication abortion, or medical abortion) to end a pregnancy.
You are eligible if you:
- Used mifepristone to have an abortion on or after January 1, 2015
- Were living in Vermont at the time
- Are sufficiently fluent in English or French to answer interview questions
- Have access to a telephone, Skype, or Zoom
During the interview, we will ask you series of questions about your background, your reproductive health history, and the circumstances surrounding the pregnancy. We will also ask you to tell us about your experience obtaining an abortion with pills and we will ask you to tell us about ways in which you think that services could be improved.
All participants will receive a $40 gift certificate to www.amazon.com. Participation is both voluntary and confidential. Spots for this study are filled on a first come, first served basis.
Please note that the abortion pill is not the same thing as emergency contraception, also known as Plan B or "the morning after pill."
If you would like more information about the study or research team, or if you are interested in participating, please contact us at ws-stu02@uottawa.ca. You may also contact the Principal Investigator, Dr. Angel M. Foster, at angel.foster@uottawa.ca.
No Ubers here and stuff, but if there’s anyone who might show me around the city and Vermont state would be super helpful! :)
Hi folks--long time chittenden county resident. Looking to buy a home and thinking about relocating to Rutland. We've visited before and like the downtown area, restaurants/breweries and have enjoyed bomoseen and other nearby places. We have a young child and might have another. Does anyone have any advice or perspective to share about living in Rutland for a young family? I like that it seems more walkable than where I currently live, and the real estate market is much more affordable. Thanks in advance
Any pole dancers or aerial artist in the Rutland area? We are moving up in just a couple weeks and my partner is super sad about leaving her studio community here. Hoping to find her a studio within an hours drive and/or some fellow performers to connect with. I heard there had been a studio in Rutland but it shut down during the pandemic.....
The only info I could find was from 2017. I’ve heard that most or all Uber drivers switched to food delivery. Specifically does anyone know if Killington still partners with Uber during season if someone wanted to take up driving?
My partner just accepted a job in Rutland and we are now planning on relocating there from Asheville, Nc in September. I am having an insanely difficult time finding any rentals in the area. Does anyone have any suggestions or tips on finding housing in the area from afar?
So i moved here from Colorado this year, and i was surprised to see what we believe was a mountain lion in our yard! Is this normal? I didn't think they were this far east!
hi guys!
beautiful state :)
so im going to a bachelorette in hartland, vt. but i dont have a car and im trying to figure out the best route (i'll be with another friend, not alone).
i was thinking we could take the amtrak to rutland and then take a ride share to the cabin in hartland.
but then it dawned on me...we wouldnt get into rutland until around 11:30pm on friday night. does anyone know if there would be ride shares like uber or lyft available at those hours and willing to drive us all the way to hartland? i live in nyc, so here it'd be a definite yes but i'm not as sure what it is like up in vermont.
any advice would be great! thank you.
I've mostly been doing Doordash. For a while it looked like UberEats was completely dead here. I tried to redeem a $30 off promo they sent me as a new customer at least a dozen times and I never got a thing. Even after I managed to jump through all the hoops and sign up as a driver, even when I was logged in and active as a driver I still got "we couldn't find a driver".
Last week though, I logged back in on a lark and immediately got an order. I was so flabbergasted I accepted the order without meaning to. I didn't understand about "pin required" orders so that was a hassle but I got through it.
Then I managed to actually redeem another promo they sent me, it looked at first like it would end up like all the other attempts, but around the 50 minute mark they finally found a driver. Not me, even though I was logged in as a driver again, though they did offer me another delivery while I was waiting.
Then yesterday while I was doing Doordash I had another one come in that I couldn't take, so that makes a grand total of three. It's a shame, it looks like they pay better than Doordash...
Hi everyone,
I am moving to Proctor and need help with locating the best home insurance companies. Can you please provide your recommendations? Thank you
Also, what are the fastest most reliable internet providers in the area?
From a town not too far away - I think it would be interesting to see the folks passing through the nearby trail
For those with an interest in privacy, please note the Rutland City school board meeting from 4/13 (had date wrong) contains testimony from administration on how they are tracking "zoom bombing" incidents. It sounds like they are matching IPs to device MAC addresses by monitoring when suspect students log on, then backtracking to when and from what IP suspect students logged in previously. Youtube transcript with timestamps is below.
ere able to
41:24track ip addresses and so we got a list
41:28of all of the students in
41:29all of the impacted classes and we were
41:32able to make some connections between
41:34um there's a public ip address which is
41:37the internet source that you're using
41:38and there's a private i p address which
41:40is the device that you're using it on
41:43so we were able to find some correlation
41:45between classes which let us know that
41:47it was
41:49you know there was one student that was
41:50impacting several different classes on
41:52different houses
41:53and from there we've spent a lot of time
41:56trying to
41:56uh determine who owns that that local ip
42:00address
42:01at this point we haven't had any success
42:03but we are continuing to monitor
42:05students as they sign in so that we can
42:06try to
42:08narrow down our search based on based on
42:10ip addresses
42:12we don't want to tell you a whole lot
42:13because we are still in the throes of of
42:16that investigation so um obviously this
42:19is public meeting so
42:21um and how was it addressed with the
42:24kids that were harmed
42:25by the i mean as i said so what we've
42:29done
42:30is we have been training our staff to
42:33work with those students we've talked to
42:34the students
42:35we've done some circles with the
42:36students as far as reparation goes
42:39um you know who was harmed there were a
42:42lot of people harmed right because
42:44a lot of classrooms were impacted by it
42:46so
42:47really just talking and um
42:50you know kind of being there for
42:51particularly you know as i said before
42:53are students of color who
42:54are much more impacted by it than the
42:57other students um
42:58and you know it's it's it's it's a very
43:01delicate delicate situation because
43:03you have kids whose name was there as
43:06though they were
43:08saying those racial slurs and it wasn't
43:11them
43:11and so they felt incredibly guilty and
43:15you know didn't really know what to do
43:16because you know we
43:18we learned quickly that it wasn't them
43:20so um
