Those apartments in the relatively affluent areas are exactly the ones that these Fair Housing centers are targeting. What they want to do is make it so that the price of the property is discriminatory against low income people, to force the developers into making some of those units available...

The housing developer may have a history of discrimination, or something else that caught the attention of the Fair Housing Center, I dunno. But unless there is something more to it than the online ad, it certainly appears that the Miami Valley Fair Housing Center is merely doing what countless...

You just knew it was gonna happen sooner or later.

I heard Carnival Cruise Lines, Norwegian Cruise Lines, and Maersk, got together and bought 350 FLIR-equipped helicopters. That way they can get a good look at the RPGs that are being fired at the helicopters, just before they're blown out of the sky.

Very little, actually. He's been caught not only twisting the truth, and in lies of omission, but in outright blatant lies. There are many examples, but his whole Cash for Clunkers government "web site" extravaganza was the last straw for me. He didn't just misrepresent the truth, he...

Both stories are excellent examples of why and how political correctness stifles free speech, free thought, and becomes de facto censorship. In the case of the first story, the gimmick of advertising a dwelling as a bachelor pad is exactly that, an advertising gimmick. It's not discrimination...

The EFOY 2200, the big one, produces 2200 12-volt Watt Hours per day. That's 180 amp hours per day, or an output of 7.5 amps at 12 volts, which is 90 Watts. Aside from the fact that you must use Webasto's own "ultra pure" methanol, which is very expensive and hard to find (relatively speaking...

Don't listen to him, he doesn't even know where is . key is.

Well, I'm not sure how one would go about taking inventory of an approaching boat to find out what is on board, but in any case, here's one that looks like it might possibly, maybe, might have some grenades, launchers, machine guns, and likely a grappling hook or two. Looks menacing enough to...

Yeah, any time a smaller boat approaches a larger one, piracy should be assumed, and the smaller boat should just be blown out of the water. Questions can always be asked later if necessary.

The reason people don't like this is because the law requiring people to answer all of the questions is, very likely, unconstitutional. Not that they haven't been usurping the Constitution on a regular basis already, but enough is enough. If we sheepishly let them chip away again at this part of...

Depends on the elevation. Butte is down in that bowl valley straddling the Continental Divide at about 5500 feet, and there's no snow on the ground, but a few miles in most any direction, except I-90 westbound, and you start going up, and you quickly run into snow. I-90 westbound is the only...

"The higher the cold cranking amps,the shorter the life of the battery." Depends. Batteries with high cold cranking amps are usually designed to be cranking, or starting, batteries. If used as a cranking battery, they'll last a long time. If you use it for something other than what it was...

Actually, just so you know, pursuant to Article 1, Section 2, Clause 3 of the Constitution, there is one little tidbit that creates the loophole for the law requiring us to accurately answer all of the questions on the Census. "The actual Enumeration shall be made within three Years after the...

Maybe you'll get a load to Fargo. :D

Some might not remember that it was back in the early 90's when there was a coup there, and 2 or 3 years later under Bill Clinton the US military went in and restored Aristide back in power. And when there was another coup in 2004 (I think) it was a US military jet that scooted him out of the...

Or better yet, e-mail Sean that you've been on hold for a week, the QC doesn't work, and you'd like to go back in service. :D Another options is to block your caller ID and pretend to be a customer. They hate that, but I don't care, and it will get you to a CSR who can at least e-mail Driver...

I do happen to have some insight into this, direct from my cousin, as well as from his mother and his wife who have also talked with him several times. My cousin was there on Day-One. He's the Task Force Executive Officer, a Lieutenant Colonel. When the US Army first arrived, they secured the...

Butte, Montana :D

Leo: "Has the Haitian government requested all nations assisting to refrain from displaying their nation's flag?" No, they requested the two American Flags, which the US military had raised above the Haiti airport, be taken down. Because the US base of operations is at the airport, someone had...
