Kittens and Mom still in need of a home
Hello everyone! I posted about Callie and her kittens last week. We were able to find 2 of the kittens homes from that one post (linked above). There are still 3 kittens and momma available. The remaining kittens are all boys and we guesstimate around 7weeks old and mom we believe is just over a year old. They are all eating dry kitten food, drinking water and are litter box trained. They are all super playful and love being around people. If you or you know anyone interested in a new family member just send me a dm and I’ll get you in touch with my neighbor who has been watching over this little family for the past few weeks.
We have also haven’t had the best luck with shelters that are able to take kittens/momma so we are open to any and all suggestions.

EDIT: I’d be giving these away for free!
EDIT 2: Claimed!

Food and Drink Any Food Recommendations around Brownsburg?
Hello Everyone! I am from the south, Georgia, and have the pleasure of being in Brownsburg for a few weeks due to a work project. I am making this post to ask for the best food spots around Brownsburg, or within a 30 minute drive from there. I have been recommended 'Mota Tacos' and 'Bob Evans'. I truly love all kinds of cuisines and would love to hear any delicious places yall say are worth the visit! I have a pretty open budget, and will be going with my partner, so anything goes! Thank you all for taking the time to read this, and I am excited to see where I should fill my belly with haha.

Countless Bullets Strike Houses, Cars after AirBnB in party in Fountain Square
How many more neighborhoods are going to be terrorized before the City County Council steps up and puts the screws to these AirBNB and VRBO owners?
CMV: Accountability starts with the greedy property owners allowing single day rentals, especially on short notice. What they have in place is not working.

Things To Do Family vacation ideas? “Best” arcade?
My wife and two kids (under 8) are going to Indianapolis for 2-4 days.
We’re definitely having a day at the Children’s Museum.
We all love arcades, and I do see a number of options on lists. Anything “preferred” with little kids in tow? Not opposed to barcades; need games the kids can play too though.
Also, any other general spots/stops that do not involve sports/racing?

Speciality Vet Recommendations
Hello! Our cat is dealing with an unknown mass in her stomach. Our primary vet already did bloodwork and x-rays then referred us to MedVet where they did an ultrasound and fine needle aspiripation/fluid draw. Based on the results, it is recommended she sees an internal medicine veterinary specialist. MedVet has a internal medicine department, but I'm curious if anyone have other recommendations. I was a bit frustrated with how drastic the price difference was between my estimate and the actual cost for the ultrasound plus FNA/fluid draw. IndyVet also has a department but I'm only familiar with their emergency veterinary services. Thank you!

AskIndy Egyptian Room question
I’m going to see Ashnikko in the Egyptian Room next week and on their website it says no toys or plushies, does anyone know if they would count keychains/trinkets as toys? Some of my keychains are plush or toylike but they would be a part of my outfit. I just want to get an idea before I get up there and have to throw everything away

Acrobatics +
Hey,
I'm taking s shot to ask for resources, suggestion, or maybe even a trainer who can help me in some acrobatics. I'm late in the game, you could say as I'm not my 30s but I like to think that I'm pretty active. So I'm not starting from scratch.
DMS are open too
Oh and I forgot to mention the desired goals:
Breakfall mechanics
Backflipping is probably the motivation for this post.
Aerials and anything else that one could suggest

Politics IU discontinues the Mobile Stroke Unit that has saved over 1400 people's lives
fox59-com.cdn.ampproject.orgAccording to an email received by the MSU Team from the President for the IU Health Metro Region, Dr. Michele Saysana, MD, the reason for the discontinuation of one of our best local programs is that the vehicle and diagnostic equipment used for the Mobile Stroke Unit (MSU) has reached the end of its lifespan; and rather than replace said tools, they are simply shutting down the project entirely.
Fox59 has asked IU why they will not replace the vehicle or equipment, but they have "nothing additional" to say about this in response.
There is testimony from our own Paula Harmon about how important and lifesaving this unit is, which saved her from death or permanent disability by arriving faster than an ambulance could get to her and carried the CT equipment along with blood clot-dissolving medication directly to her, so that she received treatment before ever having to make it all the way to a hospital and wait for a diagnosis. She was able to recover and go home within two days with only mild deficits to her function, and the ability to live her life almost the same as before.
An IU Health spokesperson, in response, stated that an ambulance can transport a patient to a stroke center in around 10 minutes.
That does not account for the time it takes to realize a stroke is happening, calling an ambulance, the ambulance getting to the patient, and having to wait at a health center for a diagnosis before they can be treated.
The Mobile Stroke Unit cuts out all those steps entirely; you have a CT onboard, a team of specialized, educated doctors, a private vehicle with all other necessary equipment and medications, and the ability to administer the lifesaving medicine right at the scene before taking the arduous (and painfully slow; we all know how Downtown is) journey to a hospital or other stroke center.
Anecdotally, an ambulance has never taken me to a hospital quicker than 13 minutes, and I live just north of Downtown. I have never had a stroke or needed the MSU, but that doesn't matter. People in this city do and will continue to need it, so it is very important.
From the article: Dr. Jason Mackey, director of the MSU, 2021 statement: "Right now, most of these units are funded through philanthropy, and we need better reimbursement to ensure sustainability - the positive data will help with (Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services) and other payers."
My opinion: this is utter BS. They should not shut down a lifesaving project out of the blue for no clearly good reason and absolutely no warning. There are several people I know, and friends of friends, whose loved ones have been saved by this unit. It prevents death and disability, provides dignity in the middle of a drastic and incredibly stressful health crisis, and provides a wonderful continued research opportunity to gain more information and tailor specialized lifesaving services more effectively. We NEED this.
My proposal: is there enough support from our Marion County community to essentially argue IU out of doing this? If there was, would it even be successful? Would we be able to fundraise for this initiative? Could we create a circulating petition to demand IU reverse the end of one of our best, most impactful services? Maybe even enough to expand it to the point where shutting it down in the future would be implausible for the company?
I am incredibly upset about this, and I want to know what other Marion County residents think and how you all feel about this. Discuss!! Just be polite and empathetic toward each other. Thank you.

Things To Do Good local attractions for young families (that offer discounts)?
My family (children are 5 and under) is considering Indy or Chicago for a day trip soon. Shedd Aquarium has a big discount if we were to show our EBT card, so I was wondering if stuff in Indy offers any kind of discounts too.

RequestIndy Online Reporting Tool Failing
Went through three attempts to submit reports of illegal dumping on a vacant lot via the updated "Request Indy/ Indy 311" app and it said "There was a problem submitting your Service Request. Our system has encountered an internal error. " and just told me to call 311.
Anyone else seeing the same thing? The old app worked well if visually outdated...

Politics Anyone know any good construction lawyers?
I have a new construction house that is experiencing humidity levels that average about 70%. The builder (Pulte) and the installer (Airtron) are denying any issue. There is condensation on the registers and the cabinets are starting to warp.
I design HVAC systems. This is a textbook case of oversizing the system, but they don't want to take responsibility for it. They have dragged their feet for a couple months now, offering nonsensical responses and ignoring most of the concerns that are brought up.
At this point, a lawsuit may be my last resort.
If anyone is looking for an HVAC installer, please stay away from Airtron. I met with one of their techs and the guy was completely clueless. The only thing he did was change one setting, which was completely irrelevant in this case. And if it was relevant, it actually would have made the issue worse. When I brought it up, his excuse was, "I only have 2 years of experience." The worst part is that this was the 3rd tech they sent out!
