EN: Aren't there a bunch of cameras around there? Do they not even have a suspect? - There are cameras even in the photos lol.
EN: Even the picture has a camera in it haha. - If I had to guess, these things haven't been used since they were installed in 2012. They say they work and record 24/7 or something, but I doubt it.

2. Who should I call?
Original title:who should I call?
Post summary:Hi everyone, we had a crew come to our house and start tearing up the driveway bricks and pouring cement for a new walkway. All good, but they haven't finished, and I can't use my driveway until they come back and put the bricks back. It's been over a week now with no change. Does anyone know who to call to get someone to fix this?

3. Dentist recommendations
Original title:Dentist recommendations
Post summary:Hi everyone, I had a lovely dentist my whole life until he retired a few years ago. Last month I started having some tooth pain, and CDCP covers 100%. So I reluctantly started looking for a new dentist. I researched and found one that takes CDCP. He had good reviews, so I booked an appointment. When I got there, the front desk and dental hygienist were great. But when it came time to see the dentist, he was the most impersonal robot I've ever met. Didn't explain anything to me.
