The EU

Google says the EU requires a notice of cookie use (by Google) and says they have posted a notice. I don't see it. If cookies bother you, go elsewhere. If the EU bothers you, emigrate. If you live outside the EU, don't go there.

New Parking at UMass Lowell

There is good news tonight.  Per The Lowell Sun, the UMass Trustees have authorized $20 million for the building of a parking garage at UMass Lowell.  The article can be found here.

Within the good news is some bad news.  In the article is this paragraph:
UMass Lowell officials said the first step will be for the UMass Building Authority to complete a traffic study on campus to determine where and how best to meet the parking needs of students and faculty.
The Trustees approve over half a billion dollars in new construction and UMass Lowell doesn't have a plan for citing the approved parking garage?  What is wrong with the Trustees?  What is wrong with UMass Lowell?

Wouldn't it have been better to have actually figured out where the parking garage would go?  This lack of pre-planning may be a clue as to why our per capita indebtedness for the state is number two in the nation.

  Remember, articles in The Sun go away after a while, to a different place.  I will not be updating their links unless I am bedridden and have read every book in the house.

Maybe they do know, but haven't told the SUN.
