Unlike headaches, which range from dull to acute, migraines can last for days, interfering in one’s ability to function. Migraines commonly include intense and unilateral pain, nausea and vomiting, and light sensitivity, which may include auras.

OPEN SPACE BOND: More info needed

Haven’t decided how I’ll vote but: 1) their plan seems too general at this point. I need more specific information how you envision spending $50 million. After all you’ve had months to work on your plan. What is it?, 2) You say current market interest rates are 3.7%. How can you sell 20-year bonds at 3.7% interest when the U.S. Treasuries 10-year note is selling at 4.9% and the 30-year bond 5.1%? Why would anyone buy this bond at 3.7%? If you have to raise your interest rate to 5% or more then doesn’t the property tax of $8 per $100,000 in assessed valuation understate what we will be actually charged?
