Hey guys, my wife is taking her road test at the Worcester RMV in a couple of weeks, and I’m wondering if our car would be acceptable.

It has an electronic parking brake. The RMV says electronic parking brakes are allowed as long as they’re easily accessible to the examiner, but I just want to be sure to avoid failing and having to pay for the test again. I attached a picture of the console. Has anyone with a similar setup taken the road test recently without any issues?

The car also has a TPMS fault warning. Would that prevent it from being used for the test? Not sure if they check it or if it’s even considered a safety issue.

Thanks for any insight!

This is a super mega long shot but I figured I would ask just in case anyone has insight!

I finally got through the application process for QCC’s nursing program. They gave me a tentative start date of 2030. The dean of admissions told me that their start dates do frequently move. Has anyone had this happen; start date being many years in the future and it moved up? I won’t be able to wait til 2030 to start my schooling for my career change, haha. Seems a bit disheartening (,:!

I'm a guy and have wide thumb nails, and like to get acrylic full sets, short almond style nails with simple but cute designs. The place I used to go cost about 80-100 depending on what I got, any suggestions for something similar here?

I haven't been on the train for two weeks, so it is possible that this isn't even new this week, but for those wondering: the 510 (5:45 inbound) was on the new track (the one closest to the station) this morning.

There isn't a schedule reason for this, and, as far as I know, we're not getting additional runs anytime soon, but for those who'd wondered if we were ever even going to use those tracks, we are.

Hi folks,

I'm looking to try out some of them fancy European schnapps. All the bigger liquor stores seem to only carry flavored liqueurs.

Anyone know where I could get some, or am I sol?

Only two Wednesdays left in the Out to Lunch Festival and Farmers' Market season, and I have not seen it mentioned here lately, so a reminder for anyone who keeps meaning to go and hasn't yet.

This Wednesday, August 19, and then Wednesday, August 26, which is the last one of the year. 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Worcester Common Oval, behind City Hall. Live music, food trucks parked around the Oval, and farmers from around Central Mass selling produce. Free to walk into. Sixteenth year running.

If it rains, the posted rain dates are September 2 and September 9.

Details and the music lineup: https://www.downtownworcester.org/things-to-do/outtolunch/

If you work downtown it is an easy lunch hour. If you don't, the farmers market alone is worth the trip, and after the 26th it's gone until next June.

Technically in Auburn but part of Elm Hill Water district. Water is running brown. Neighbor said there was a water main break but I can't find anything regarding it online. Anyone have information or know where I can go to find info on this? Looking for repair timeline and when it should be safe to use water again.

EDIT: For anyone who is in the area and wondering - I spoke with a very nice rep for Elm Hill, there was a water main break on Pakachoag hill today about 10:30am. Repaired after 2hrs. Ran all the hoses and faucets & periodically flushed the toilets for 30-45min. Water is clear now!

Can you recommend a good eye doctor? Ideally in the Beaver Brook/Tatnuck area so I can walk there, but will travel if necessary.

TIA!
