Asif, You can stop trying to pull the wool over our eyes. There is just something very wrong with your faith. How do explain the fact that muslims are in lethal conflict with with all the people they are living along side, whether it is Christians, Jews, Hindus or Buddhist and even other Muslims, all around the world? http://www.rawstory.com/2015/11/sam-h ... ering-christian-fascists/

Will they wait for him to get to the scene before they start their attack? Of course, you would try to ask those kinds of questions because you know that even if someone had answers to them, it would be ridiculous for them for them spell them out on the internet.

The muslim population sure must be growing like crazy, why only 15 years ago around 9/11 I heard that the muslim population was worldwide was 1 billion. Either that or they are they are inflating their numbers to make it seem like there are a lot more of them then there really are.

Apparently there were a lot of supporters taking to twitter and social media to express support for the attack. Who knows how many of those are here in this country. The tech companies need to work with law enforcement to help them track these people. This cannot go on.

Friend and left a small tip (maybe 200 yen) a small restaurant in Tokyo this past spring, only to waitress coming running after as to tell us we had left money on the table.
Japan is probably not a good comparison since incredible service very much a part of the Japanese culture. Don't think it has much to do with whether they are treated better or they are proud of their job. Edit : sorry if you already knew that because you're Japanese. Quote:

Also what happens to the security deposit? Is the previous owner supposed to turn it over to me at the time of sale. Thanks in advance

which ones The first two instances occurred after I used the gas stations along route 3 in Secaucus. The latest one after I used it in a gas station in Mawah (Guess it's not exact local). They charged $1,500 at the Gucci store in Woodbury Commons and attempted to charge about $2,400 at BOTTEGA VENETA which ended up being declined , and triggering a fraud alert email to me. Quote: Get out of the car and swipe it yourself. Problem solved. not really simple in NJ where you have gas station attendants and my cursory research indicates some of these skimmers are inside the panel and not very visible. anyways, just heads up everyone who uses their cards at gas stations.

I am wondering has anyone recently had to deal with instances of credit number thefts after using it in the local area gas stations? I have had to deal with 4 in the last year it basically seems to occur a few days/ weeks after I use the cards for Gas. I have actually decided I am going to stop using the credit cards at gas stations, which is bummer since the bonus reward categories usually include gas stations.

Quote:
I am not sure that's the case. If the second building was going to be built and owned by the developer as rental building, wouldn't it legally be separated from from the building currently standing (the one that has the condo association)? At least that's how it seems to work at LHN and Grove Pointe. Quote: It is almost universally accepted that owners are much more desirable when compared to renters. The thinking goes that renters do not care as much about being good neighbors, or keeping up their place of residence, since they are not there for the long term. I don't necessarily agree (I think it varies, based on circumstances, the people involved, etc) but people seem to accept this as gospel True, I guess I was looking at it from a purely financial point of view In any case I don't think these guys aren't helping themselves by making all kinds of hard to prove political connection charges public. Better of selling while the market is hot.

This kind of friction between developers and owners seem to be the norm in all new buildings. They eventually work themselves out. We had some issue at Liberty Harbor North in the beginning.
One thing I don't get is why the owners would care that the new units were rentals instead of Condo. Wouldn't having updated, newer units right next door, make your units less desirable when you want sell? Besides the tight supply of condo units is only helping keep the prices up.

Wouldn't count in it being too temporary. One side of County Road was torn a few months in a similar fashion and put back in the worst way possible. You basically can't drive on that side anymore, unless you don't care about wearing out your shocks. There seems to no one holding these utilities or whoever accountable to putting back the roads back properly.

I think you are overlooking one thing here . These Australians, Chinese and others pay thousands of dollars in property taxes for each year. The property taxes goes to pay for schools, pension funds of the "young families" you are so concerned about. Their own kids don't use the school system here so they don't get anything in return. If I was young family with kids, I'd happy with this arrangement.

Whatever they are using to fill it up isn't working. It's like they were filled up with beach sand. The big giant one they filled up 2 week ago on the corner of Coles and Columbus is almost back to it's old state.

Guess there goes my dream Chipotle Mexican Grill replacing Shah taj. Yes, I know Taqueria is there, it's got great food, However I can only take so much of the the cramped space, the attitude, the low ceilings, the loud music and 80s vibe.
This is anti free market as Vindication said. Chain stores / restaurants because of their scale are able to source their inputs at a much lower price, demand better quality and have sophisticated logistics system in place reduce their procurement and shipping costs. They pass enough of it along, to make a difference for consumers like me. I don't want pay extra for grocery or a restaurant because Mr Mom and Mrs Pop wasn't able get the best lease rate, or the best price price because they were only buying half a truck load.

No this is for a place I had the last few years, that I just refinanced. You may be right.

Anyone know when they're going to cover up or do something with the set of groves that are carved in Barrow (between York/Montgomery and Montgomery/Mercer). They've been there for a while. The edges on them seem really sharp and capable causing damage to tires.

I'm sure your quality of life would go way up if all the kids were just wandering around the streets all day instead of in school. Does the idea of helping society occur to you at all?

I guess I am just tired of this constant insinuation people living in these tax abated properties aren't paying their "fair" share of taxes.

It looks like we are heading to becoming a divided city. Those protected from property tax increases by owning tax abated properties and those that don't who are taxed conventionally subject to property tax increases. I live in a tax abated building and like most people in my building, I don't have any kids but I feel like I probably pay more in taxes for my measly 700 sq feets than those with kids and huge houses. I am not asking any more services. In fact I'd perfectly fine if they did away with schools here to cut down on spending.
