I've been trying this for a while, and can't seem to get it right in Activerecord.
Given an array of
asset_id and
asset_type pairs, query a class that has both those attributes, only where both
asset_id and
asset_type match.
So given the array
I want to generate the SQL
SELECT "asset_attachments".* FROM "asset_attachments" WHERE ((asset_id,asset_type) IN ((4,'Logo'),(1,'Image')))
I can do this by manually entering a string using where like this:
AssetAttachment.where("(asset_id,asset_type) IN ((4,'Logo'),(1,'Image'))")
But I'm trying to use it with an array of any length and asset type/id.
So far I've tried
AssetAttachment.where([:asset_id, :asset_type] => [[4,"Logo"],[1,"Image"]])
NoMethodError: undefined method `to_sym' for [:asset_id, :asset_type]:Array
AssetAttachment.where("(asset_id,asset_type)" => [[4,"Logo"],[1,"Image"]])
ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid: PG::Error: ERROR: column asset_attachments.(asset_id,asset_type) does not exist
AssetAttachment.where("(asset_id,asset_type) IN (?,?)",[[4,"Logo"],[1,"Image"]])
ActiveRecord::PreparedStatementInvalid: wrong number of bind variables (1 for 2) in: (asset_id,asset_type) IN (?,?)
Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks in advance

Organic Foods and Cafe
Sheikh Zayed Road, Dubai, United Arab Emirates,
Organic supermarket stocking a large range of products including fruits, vegetables, and various organic food. Has an organic cafe that is not all vegetarian but has vegetarian dishes. Note that its other outlet in Satwa, Dubai Mall had shut down.
Reviews (2)First Review by Brooke
Great shop, so-so cafe - Edit
I prefer their shops over their cafes. The shops really do have a good selection of things with a large number of vegan items, too.
There's also an online shop on their website. My only criticism would be that sometimes items are out of stock and they can't tell you when they'll be available again (like nutritional yeast).
I have been to the cafe in the Greens a few times. It's okay, but it tends to get very busy. There's not that much for vegetarians or vegans on offer, also what there was tasted fine. I thought service was a bit slow.
Also, I personally feel that the cafes & shops are pushing meat dishes too much. Meat does not magically become okay top eat simply because it's labelled "organic" or "free-range".
Pros: Good shop, now also online, Central locations
Cons: Sometimes items are unavailable, Average fare in the cafes, Too much focus on meat
Biggest & Best Organic Store and Restaurant Dubai - Edit
This store has 2 locations, Dubai Mall and The Greens. The Greens is a smaller but cosier store which has been established the longest. Great variety all things organic. Dedicated bakery section. Restaurant does fresh lovely organic food. My only complaint would be there is not enough vegetarian options, but that is probably because I eat there all the time.
Pros: Excellent Fresh Food, Service Great in Store, Biggest and Best Organic Store in Dubai
Cons: Service is slow in restaurant, Would like like more vege variety

Boy o boy . does Microsoft know marketing or what.
Two new sleek and stylish Windows Phones hit AT&T stores across the U.S. today—the Samsung Focus S and Focus Flash. They join the white HTC Radar 4G introduced last week by T-Mobile.
To celebrate the debut of these phones Microsoft constructed a six-story Windows Phone smack in the middle of New York's busy Herald Square.
The Big Windows Phone will feature 8 hours of live performance and digital entertainment projected on giant LED screens. The Live Tiles will be very much alive: You'll see games in the Games Hub, music in the Music + Video Hub, people in the People Hub. Besides just seeming like a cool thing to do, the supersized smartphone underscores our people-centered approach to building phones.
If you've been waiting to get a new Windows Phone, now's the time. All of which are capable of 4G speeds, have front- and rear-facing cameras, and come in a range of prices. Here's the rundown:
- HTC Radar 4G: Crafted from a single piece of polished aluminum, the HTC Radar is the only white handset in the Windows Phone lineup. $99 after $50 mail-in rebate. Learn more.
- Samsung Focus S: Successor to the award-winning Samsung Focus, the Focus S features a brilliant 4.3" Super AMOLED Plus display—the brightest screen in the lineup—a thin 8.55-millimeter profile, and an 8-megapixel camera. $199. Learn more
- Samsung Focus Flash: The fast and lightweight Samsung Focus Flash features a 3.7" Super AMOLED screen and 5-megapixel camera. $49. Learn more
- HTC Titan: Coming soon from AT&T, the HTC Titan sports a 4.7" screen—the largest in the Windows Phone lineup—an ultra-thin 9.9-millimeter design, and an 8-megapixel camera with dual LED flash. $199.
As an added bonus, anyone who buys a phone also gets a free $25 prepaid card for shopping in the Windows Phone Marketplace, which now has more than 30,000 apps and games. So you can stock up on great apps right out of the box.
The Big Windows Phone
The celebration in New York City, meanwhile, officially kicks off at noon with a live performance—in the Music + Video tile, natch—from Far East Movement. The band, which melds elements of hip-hop, pop, electro, and dance, should make for a sweet show.
Sweet marketing isn't it?

Regensburg Redux: Was Pope Benedict XVI Right About Islam?
Eight years ago this Sept. 12, Pope Benedict XVI delivered a lecture at the University of Regensburg in Bavaria in which he seemed to diagnose Islam as a religion inherently flawed by fanaticism.
It was an undiplomatic assertion, to say the least — especially coming a day after the 9/11 anniversary — and it sparked an enormous outcry among Muslims and came to be seen as one of a series of missteps that would plague Benedict's papacy until he resigned last year.
Now, with the Islamic State on the march in the Middle East, leaving a trail of horrifying brutality and bloodshed that has shocked the world, some of Benedict's allies on the Catholic right are saying, in effect, "He told you so."
"Regensburg was not so much the work of a professor or even a pope," wrote the Rev. Raymond de Souza in a column for the National Catholic Register, a conservative publication. "It was the work of a prophet."

I've got a c# business application (still targeting .net 4.0). After installing .net 4.5 the inactive foreground color for a datagrid row changed. (i didn't recompile, still executing the same binaries)
It seems that they changed the contrast color calculation for foreground colors.
Some more details. The Datagrid is defined that way:
<DataGrid Background="White" AlternatingRowBackground="WhiteSmoke" ... />
we also defined a global style for Datagrid that way:
<Style TargetType="{x:Type DataGrid}">
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static SystemColors.HighlightBrushKey}" Color="{DynamicResource ItemSelectedFocusedColor}"/>
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static SystemColors.ControlBrushKey}" Color="{DynamicResource ItemSelectedFocusedColor}"/>
The color:
<Color x:Key="ItemSelectedFocusedColor">#88087ED1</Color>
When executing the app with .net 4 installed, the foreground text color of an unfocused Datagrid row is White. When executing the app with .net 4.5 installed, foreground text color of an unfocused Datagrid row is Black.
If the datagrid has the focus, the behavior is the same. (white in both Versions)
For me, that is a breaking change for an in-place update. All my clients should gain exactly the same user experience independently of the installed version.
I also cannot find any information regarding this issue on MSDN .net 4.5 Application Compatibility

This bed is really nice and looks just like the picture. I ordered 2 of them and they are more brown than red which is a really nice color. The picture is very accurate. I am using them with foam mattress so I got a plywood sheet from *** to put on top of the slates and it's working great. Can't really comment on how strong the slates are as I never used the bed with just them. Love them!!
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? very accurate
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. very good
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? matched exactly
the bed is look nice but it collapses after first night sleep, unfortunately, the bed only come with three slats; it is not strong enough to support. I will not recommend this to a friend.

The team at Design Everest Consulting Engineers were a pleasure to work with. We had a particularly difficult design and build in the Los Gatos Mountains, less than half a mile from the San Andreas fault. Our foundation was significant, including a sizeable cut into the mountain and an engineered retaining wall. The structure itself was also somewhat complex, including a cantilever. Finally, because this new part of the house was mating with existing construction, consideration for matching structural design elements was required.
The structural drawings were of high quality. The county had very few comments, and they were addressed quickly. I can recommend Design Everest Consulting Engineers enthusiastically.
As part of a remodeling project in our home in east bay, I had pleasure to work with Amar. I found him very detailed oriented and extremely responsive. In no time he could understand complex structure of the home and came up with the engineering design of the remodel.
The city approved his design in no time.
Will definitely recommend him!
– Peyush A.
Amar at Design Everest was a pleasure to work with. He was very prompt with his communication and delivering the plans with a quick turn around. He provided excellent service at a competitive rate.
I was building a long 55 foot long & 4 foot high retaining wall in my backyard and needed to provide plans to my HOA for approval. He came out surveyed the site and was patient as we went through multiple iterations to address the requests of my HOA. He said he would see it through to the end and he stood by his commitment.
I would definitely recommend Design Everest for designs and would look to them for my needs in the future.
I've collaborated on a number of commercial projects with Design Everest and I can attest to their detailed in-depth knowledge of structural and earthquake engineering. They are able to engineer not only wood buildings but also steel and reinforced concrete structures. I found their knowledge-based approach and timely delivery refreshing.
– Scott A.
Design Everest was very efficient and very helpful. Even though my project is only to add a room, they are very responsive and very professional. Amar has even gone the extra mile to help me on the design of the architect. Price is very reasonable also.
When I need additional change, they did it right away. Thanks for the support.
– Ricky Y.
After connecting through their Craigslist ad, I was immediately impressed with their responsiveness, can-do attitude and refreshingly straightforward approach.
My project had some unusual structural aspects which seemed to disturb in some manner other structural engineers (resulting in some out-of-sight bids – and wild, expensive solutions).
Design Everest delivered on time, provided a high-quality and most importantly a cost-effective solution – and continue to support me through the implementation process. It's a delight to find such a capable, honest and courteous professional to work with on a challenging project.
Thank you!!

Wonderful unique perspectives mixing family photos and every day objects with verve and vigor. A must see!!!
I LOVED this beautiful show of Roger Weingarten's digital art and a few very entertaining sculptures. The first wonderful thing that blew me away was the saturated jewel-toned color to be found throughout the framed art. Then, as I looked more closely and carefully, I found that amazing images seemed to keep popping out and surprising me in almost every piece. The show seemed to have been hung in such a way as to provide a "flow" from one piece to the next with the variety of mood and subject making the viewer want to find out "what's next".
Judy Dales of the Exhibition Committee offered the following comment:
"This exhibit presents an exciting sampler of the work being done by fiber artists today: baskets with unusual surface treatments; knitted sculpture, both thought provoking and whimsical; quilted works ranging from complex subtle designs to bold, graphic work; woven wearables to wall weavings; hand painted and dyed fiber pieces; and imaginative assemblages made from both fiber and natural objects. The items in this exhibit cross boundaries, sometimes obviously fiber work, other times mixed media, thus truly representing the broad range of surface design today."
Exhibit dates will be June 1 - 28, 2016
How timely this event is! Recent public protest from the majority of NH residents have spoken loudly against the proposed bobcat trapping/hunting and recently the publicized concern from residents of Shoreham, VT with coyote killings. What a marvelous opportunity for the Vermont and New Hampshire /Dartmouth community to have a chance to learn not only how essential predators and wildlife are to the ecosystem but also to gain awareness how we as citizens can do more as animal stewards, learn about sustainable and non-lethal methods ,and how to become advocates against animal and wildlife cruelty or the barbaric-savagery of trapping. Looking forward to an incredible panel of presenters and the feature film; Medicine of the Wolf and meeting the Protect Our Wildlife representatives.
A great conversation about a great topic.
great! all new work I'm told.
Don't miss this fun community event! The swap is noon-3pm with workshops on Garden Planning with Lisa Coven at 1pm and Seed Starting For Less with Ron Krupp at 2:30pm.
A few tips:
WHAT TO BRING: Your own saved seeds, extra purchased seeds, seeds brought back from another region or country. Please label with variety and date harvested. (No GMO seeds please.) If you don't have seeds to share, consider bringing another garden-related item to swap (a garden book, extra tools, garden preserves, a snack). Donations are also welcome for the Community Teaching Garden scholarship fund.
HOW IT WORKS: All the seeds will be sorted into categories on tables. Participants add their seeds and select the seeds they want, putting them into provided envelopes. There will be a separate area for saved and special seeds (heirlooms, small quantities, unusual varieties, etc.) so that participants can talk to each other about the seed origins. There will also be extra seeds donated by High Mowing Seeds and Gardener's Supply, so everyone will have seeds to bring home.
1pm: GARDEN PLANNING FOR COMPANION AND SUCCESSION PLANTING with Lisa Coven - This fun and interactive seminar will explore the different reasons for companion planting and how to plan for succession planting so you can harvest short-growing crops all seasons long. Participants are encouraged to bring a list of plants they would like to grow this season. At the end of the session, each gardener will leave with a map to help them plan and manager their garden.
2:30pm: SEED STARTING FOR LESS with Ron Krupp - This hands-on workshop will include a discussion on germination mixes, potting soils, seed starting dates, grow lights vs. sun light, containers, the use of cold-frames, greenhouses and more. Please bring your garden questions.
Awesome band! Takes you back in time to a wonderful funky era of music!!!! A must see band!
His work and the way he goes about his art is quite unique and beautiful.
This is going to be a fantastic Pop Up Shop 12-5 this Saturday!! 10+ local artists and makers will be selling all kinds of goods that would make perfect holiday gifts for any and all! Event is located on the second floor of the Conant Metal & Light building above Vintage Inspired Lifestyle Marketplace at 270 Pine Street in Burlington!

Friday night's Writing Salon was a welcome relief from the inner critic rather than the joyous expression of writing I usually experience during these group meetings. This was rather apropos considering Ms. Parent started that night's session with a discussion of how the inner critic stops us from writing to our full potential. Talking about my adversarial writing partner, the one that finds my fantasy writing superfluous, my creative non-fiction lackluster, and my short stories boorish, feels rather akin to pulling a sleeping lion's tail, but I did it anyways. In fact, the experience was refreshing, like acknowledging the elephant in the room.
After the small debriefing, my fellow writers and I were given the prompt of saying what we know we cannot say. Like every prompt, it's meant to be taken however the listener desires. With Ms. Parent's advice on how to deal with the inner critic and the freeing nature of the prompt, I produced a full-bodied story of things I could actually say to someone. Maybe it didn't follow the stated intent of the prompt, but if fulfilled the underlying purpose of silencing my inner critic and inhibitions.
Of course my peers wrote witty and hilarious works about the things they want to say to someone. As always, it was a pleasure to share my writing with others and to give and receive supportive feedback. It was not my easiest day writing, but just like going to gym, there are always days that are harder than others. The point is to get on with it anyways. Thanks Ms. Parent for another successful writing session.
Great organization and alternative for youth! Where else can kids actually help on real disaster and SAR missions and get to fly airplanes!
I knew Jeremy years ago and always had faith in him as a fine young man. It's good to see him doing so well and remaining positive. Will be up to Burlington soon to check out the exhibit.
What a delight to have stumbled on this show on a trip up from Boston. The setting was stunning, and the talent abounded. Who knew what artistic talents are hidden on the back roads of beautiful Vermont! The birch paintings by Barbara Gordon are so incredible I wanted to reach out and touch them. Karen Tusinski's floral and fruit paintings threw out such vibrancy, and I loved Sky Hoyt's use of color - fantastic.
go, go, go!
A must see

This is a MUST-SEE/DO in Vermont!!! The sculptures are extraordinary and the grounds a pleasant stroll, with a gentle meadow surrounded by hills. To hear the sculptor talk of his work is even more delightful. Many arts-connected activities are planned on the CHSP grounds this season.
Sara and Abby are unbelievable
The description above does NOT do this event justice!!
Please join us at Petra Cliffs Climbing Center in Burlington on Friday Night:
The kick-off party will feature live DJ Kanganade, public demos of drytooling-- rock climbing with ice axes-- and a competition by some of the East's strongest rock and ice climbers. Come watch as they battle the forearm pump and the clock to get to the finish! Students from St. Michael's College and UVM will be representing, as well as local VT climbers and guests from Ontario, NH, NY, and beyond!
The weekend continues in Smuggler's Notch with ice climbing clinics, gear demos, and Saturday night dinner, slideshow & raffle: come listen to the history of Vermont ice climbing by Alden Pellett, the New School of ice climbing by Michael Wejchert, and how the sport has evolved, including stories of first ascents by VT native and one of the world's strongest climbers, Will Mayo.

We are excited by how much this group has grown. We now have over 500 members and our active community keeps growing.
Central Maryland Pagans is designed to be a social, sharing, and learning group introducing a range of topics not specifically related to a specific path. To some extent we have been able to satisfy many of the needs of the diversity within CMP. One of the requests that has come up from a number of people is to create a working, practicing community with a focus on the cycles. It can be very difficult to find a practicing open community, and even harder to find one that can support a family and children learning in addition to exclusively adult activities.
Wyrd Weavers is an attempt to create such a community. Based on ancient traditions but with a fully modern practice, this meetup will have dedicated learning tracks on runes, herbalism, divination, galdr, energy, magic practice, shamanism, and lore. Some of these tracks will also have simultaneous but separated children's classes. As an example there is an adult year long runes intensive class, and in a separate room a year long children's rune class.
Some but not all of the meetups will be posted in both Central Maryland Pagans and Wyrd Weavers. For example, high holidays like Yule, Ostara, etc. as well as a few intro classes. In depth or series classes are beyond the scope of CMP, and as a result might be posted in the CMP calendar and will not be meetups within CMP in the future. The shamanism classes as well as rune classes will be posted in Wyrd Weavers in the near future, as well as the ongoing planned series of children's classes.
It is wonderful that there is such a diverse community. CMP is not changing its structure for first Tuesdays, third Thursdays, etc.. This is a new group whose events will be planned so as to not conflict with CMP. This group is adding a series of learning events beyond the scope of CMP, and we do not want to change the energy or direction CMP has had for so many years.
Link to new group below...
With love and light!

Marlon Wayans in Pierre Balmain Moto Jeans
Actor and funny man, Marlon Wayans, visited Radio Station Hot 105 in Hollywood, Florida a couple of days ago to do an interview.
Marlon wore a pair of Pierre Balmain Moto Skinny Jeans with a Tokyo t-shirt and some white high tops. I love seeing guys in Pierre Balmain as their jeans have such a rough edge to them, I think the moto design is so intricate and thought out. This pair fits Marlon perfectly too, I'm loving this look. Buy Pierre Balmain online at LuisaViaRoma.

Bar Rafeli in a Denim Jacket
Bar Rafaeli and her husband held hands while walking through the streets of Barcelona. The couple are expecting their first child together later this year.
While out, Bar wore a couple of denim pieces. She had a denim shirt tied around her waist and then layered a denim jacket over her long maxi dress. The denim jacket and maxi dress look nice together, I do wonder what it would look like to layer the denim shirt under there, may be too much! You can shop for denim jackets online from Revolveclothing.com.
Zayn Malik in AGOLDE Skinny Jeans in Liverpool
Zayn Malik took to The Voice stage for their finale in Los Angeles, California. The singer wore a pair of the AGOLDE Skinny Jeans in Liverpool with a quilted leather Balmain coat.
We saw Zayn's girlfriend, Gigi Hadid, wear these for her appearance on MasterChef Celebrity Showdown not too long ago. It does have me wondering if we will be seeing them both wear them at the same time? It'll be an interesting sighting to see how they both will be styling them as they both keep their looks pretty casual. Would you like to see the couple wearing matching pairs? You can click here to purchase AGOLDE from REVOLVE.
Weekend Going Out Look: Stella McCartney Denim Skirt
Since the weather is finally warm and summer-like enough, I chose this Stella McCartney denim mini skirt to style for my weekend going out look. I love the mid blue wash of the skirt and love how it paired with this cropped sea foam green sweatshirt from Acne.
Because the rest of the look is fairly casual, I wanted to add some fun touches with accessories. I chose these Jimmy Choo metallic Mary Janes because I love the style, especially paired with the mini, which has a 60s style vibe. Next, I chose this fringe bucket bag from Stella McCartney because I love the darker blue paired with the green and wash of the skirt. Lastly, I finished the look with a bit of shine with this disc choker necklace from Miss Selfridge.

Chat with Rich Cimini
Welcome to SportsNation! On Monday, ESPNNewYork.com writer Rich Cimini stops by to chat about the Jets.
Cimini, longtime Jets beat writer for the New York Daily News and a Syracuse University graduate, covers the Jets for ESPNNewYork.com.
Send your questions now and join Cimini Monday at noon ET!
More Rich Cimini: Search | ESPNNewYork.com | Chats | Blog
Rich Cimini (12:00 PM)
Hi, everybody. Thanks for stopping by for our Jets chat. Finally, a game! I know the players are excited to hit somebody other than their own teammates, and I'm sure the fans are pumped, too. So without any further delay, let's chat.
Louie (Tampa (By way of Staten Island))
Rich, with every passing day and no new sit-down's scheduled I got less and less optimistic that we are going to get Darrelle signed. So what gives, is this gonna get done to have DR in uniform for the MNF opener?
Rich Cimini (12:02 PM)
Louie, I believe Revis will be in uniform for the first game. I'm not sure if he'll get a long-term extension, but I think the two sides will come to an agreement on a one-year, band-aid agreement. Everybody talks about how Revis' uncle, Sean Gilbert, sat out an entire year. In his case, there wasn't labor uncertainty. If Revis sits, he could miss two years because of a possible lockout. Miss two years out of his prime? No way that happens.
We know Jets won't cut John Connor, so what do you think will happen w/ T-Rich? Will they carry 2 FBs or cut the vet?
Rich Cimini (12:05 PM)
You're right, AA, Conner isn't getting cut. The Jets don't want to cut Tony because of everything he means to the team (great locker-room presence). But if they sense a slippage in his skills, they could conceivably cut him. I think it's a long shot. Conner plays special teams, so he'll be going to the game even if he doesn't get time in the backfield. When it's all done, I think it'll be TRich and Conner, with Jason Davis the odd-man out.
GreenMan (Manhattan)
What's your sense from talking to the Jets players as to how much they want to win this game tonight given new stadium, rivalry, trash talk this week, etc.?
Rich Cimini (12:06 PM)
There's definitely a little something extra for this game, given all the reasons you mentioned, but the Jets are claiming they don't care if they win or not. They say they have bigger fish to fry -- i.e. winning a Super Bowl. But ... if the Jets kick their butt tonight, I bet you'll have some players saying how good it feels to beat the Giants. That's just how it works.
Trevor Gill (Ossining, NY)
Hey Rich, love all your work and tweets!While watching Hard Knocks I felt like Tanenbaum was certianly using the cameras to his advantage with the whole Revis thing, especially in the scene on the way back from Roscoe. Also, Rex seems to use the cameras to be especially funny. How different do you think the whole organization is acting in front of the cameras and will this affect the Revis situation or on play performace at all? THANKS!
Rich Cimini (12:09 PM)
Let me tell you something: That was no act by Rex. That's just him. I can't believe the uproar by all his cursing. It's football and these are grown men, not HS kids. Football coaches curse. Have been for a 100 years. I can't believe that Fathead/prude on WFAN made such a big deal out of it. Obviously, he's clueless. As for Tannenbaum, it was totally staged. There's no way he says he feels "like a failure" if the cameras aren't there. He was playing to the audience, big time.
Evan (NYC)
Thanks for the great camp updates, Rich. How is Shonn Greene looking, and what type of year do you expect from him? Also, what are the odds that Tony Richardson does not make the final roster?
Rich Cimini (12:11 PM)
Great point, Danny, Greene has been overshadowed by everything else going on around the team. Other than Sanchez, you could make the argument that Greene is the most important player on the team. It's really hard to evaluate RBs in non-contact practices. He looks like typical Greene: Big, punishing, tough between the tackles, still can't catch, etc.
joe (brooklyn)
How long do you think sanchez will play?
Rich Cimini (12:12 PM)
According to Ryan, the starters will play a little more than a quarter, which is a bit longer than usual for the first preseason game. My hunch is that, with another game in five days, the starters will play a little LESS than usual against the Panthers.
Matt (Nanuet)
Rich, what is your take on the progression of Mark Sanchez? From most reports, it seems like he is not having a great camp so far.
Rich Cimini (12:16 PM)
Matt, I talked to Brian Schottenheimer on Saturday about Sanchez, and he was really upbeat about him. Personally, I think Sanchez has looked a bit off in practice, but some of that can be expected. After all, he's coming off knee surgery and he's learning to play with some new receivers. It takes time to get timing down. The most important thing is, his knee looks fine. And he does have a greater command of the offense, also very important.
Zach (Bay Harbor, MI.)
Will we see Gholston with the 1's tonight?
Rich Cimini (12:16 PM)
Zach, Gholston isn't a starter in the base defense, but I believe he will see time with the 1s in their nickel package.
Ryan (DC)
Who would your pick for the 5th WR? Allison, Clowney, Henry?
Rich Cimini (12:18 PM)
Interesting question, Ryan: As I blogged the other day, I like Allison. He's a better receiver than Clowney, but that position could come down to special teams, where Clowney might have the edge if he wins the "gunner" job. Allison would have to shine as a kickoff returner. Henry has had some good practices, but i need to see more of him.
WestcoastJetsfan (Los Angeles)
I read earlier today where Tim Graham said the Jets training camp seemed the most unfocused compared to the other AFC east teams. I know you haven't been to the other camps to compare but how does this Jets camp compare to last years Rex Ryan camp?
Rich Cimini (12:21 PM)
I haven't read Tim's column, Coast, but I know he's a very astute observer. Personally, I wouldn't used the word "unfocused." Confident? Yes. Arrogant? Quite possibly. Distracted? Maybe a little because of all the media coverage. But unfocused? Time will tell. The Jets had a great camp last year and came out smoking. Let's see how it goes this time.
Matt (Miami)
LT has been taking a lot of snaps with the first team. Why wouldn't they give those reps to Greene if he's gonna be the starter?
Rich Cimini (12:22 PM)
Matt, I haven't been keeping exact tabs on the rep count, but Greene is getting his share of first-team reps. I bet it's pretty close to 50-50. Remember, Tomlinson is learning the system and needs the practice time.
Pickles Johnson (Dill City, Oklahoma)
If Cromartie gets torched and the secondary gets exposed does that add any to the stress of getting Revis signed or would it take more than 1 preseason game to get there.
Rich Cimini (12:23 PM)
The Jets will say no, of course, but I think it would have an impact on the negotiations. Cromartie is having a great camp. If he were to go out and lay an egg, I think it would light a fire under the Jets to get something done with Revis.
Tom (cortland)
Very quiet day in the office without you guys about here.
Rich Cimini (12:24 PM)
Yep, we're just a bunch of hell raisers from New York. We'll be back in Cortland on Wednesday for the homestretch. I really like Cortland. Nice town, great people.
Matt (Morristown)
As the season approaches it seems more and more like Slausen is going to be the starter. Is this a short term deal to allow Ducasse time to develop or is Slausen the possible long term starter?
Rich Cimini (12:28 PM)
Well, Matt, Ryan indicated the other day that Slauson could be the long-term solution. You're right, he's ahead of Ducasse. One thing about Slauson: He doesn't have the greatest foot speed and the Jets like to pull their guards. Faneca was pretty good at that, and it'll be interesting to see how Slauson handles it. Looking into the future, Ducasse could be a RT. Damien Woody also has guard experience, and he could slide in there in 2011 if it doesn't work out with Slauson. No matter what happens, the OLine should be good for a long time, assuming they get Mangold locked up for the long term.
Big Blue (Giants Country)
There is no rivalry, anybody under 40 doesnt even know when the last time the Jets won a Super Bowl, and New York is still Giants Country because Giants fans put their money where their mouths are, how many unsold PSL's do the Giants have compared to the Jets.... Bring it on!
Rich Cimini (12:33 PM)
I love it! A cocky, trash-talking Giants fan. There aren't many of you out there. Chill out, dude, it's only a pre-season game.
brad (binghamton)
With the new WRs on the roster.. what is Brad Smith's role turning out to be? and now with LT possibly taking charge of wildcat, how often will we see smith anymore?
Rich Cimini (12:34 PM)
I'm not ready to anoint Tomlinson has the new Wildcat back. Smith will remain in that role because of his ability to throw the ball. I think you'll also see him as a situational WR, a KR and a special-teams guys. He wears a lot of dufferent hats, and he's an important player for the team.
Oz (Burtonsville)
Rich, How long is Holmes expected to play tonight with the suspension looming for the first 4 games?
Rich Cimini (12:36 PM)
I know this, Oz: He's going to get a lot of time in the final preseason game, right before he begins his suspension. I think he'll play into second quarter tonight, but I don't think he'll be out there all night. He needs to get work with Mark Sanchez, not Brunell and Clemens.
Ryan (DC)
Is Kris Jenkins completely healthy? Will the coaching staff bring him on slowly this preseason?
Rich Cimini (12:38 PM)
Is he 100%? I'm not sure. Who among us is really 100%? But he's healthy enough to play. Yes, they will have the Cookie Monster on a pitch count, so to speak. It's pointless to have him play 20 or 30 plays in a pre-season game. What would that accomplish? He's targeting sept. 13.
Paul (Ohio)
Do you see Coles making the roster? Or do they to with someone like Allison until Holmes returns, bascially because if Coles is on the oppening day roster, his salary for the year is guaranteed.
Rich Cimini (12:41 PM)
I think the coaching staff is really rooting for Coles to make the roster. You're right, his $855k is guaranteed if he's on the opening-day roster. That's a lot of coin for what could be a four-game gig. Pro-rated over an entire season, that would be $3.6 million. Coles got off to a slow start, but he's starting to make plays in practice. A lot depends on Allison, Clowney, etc. In my book, I'd take Coles. He's been there, done that.
Richie (Carbondale, Illinois)
Does Danny Woodhead remind you at all of Wayne Chrebet? An undersized player coming out of a small college, who plays bigger than his size. Do you think Woodhead will make the team, or ever be a starter on the Jets? If so do you think he will capture the hearts of fans like #80 did back in the day?
Rich Cimini (12:43 PM)
Richie, you gotta love Woodhead. He gets knocked around in practice, but he never goes down. He won't be a starter, but he can play RB, WR and 3rd down back. I don't think he'll be another Wayne Chrebet, but you have to give him a chance. He's definitely on the bubble; it'll be interesting to see if he makes it. It's a numbers game, and it's not going to be easy.
Brian (NYC)
Rich - to follow up to your comment on the certain WFAN personality - he admitted that he never watched hard knocks before last wednesday. i just cannot believe the guy can go on such an educated rant. the "uncut" nature of hard knocks is what makes the show special, and someone should remind him it airs at 10 pm on Wednesday. it is not like it is sesame street on PBS
Rich Cimini (12:45 PM)
I agree with everything you said. Fathead is a Giants fan, and hates everything to do with the Jets.
T Hizzo (New York, NY)
There has been a lot made regarding how well the offense has looked this camp. Is this because the offense has really looked THAT good? or has there been a let down on the defensive end so far?
Rich Cimini (12:48 PM)
The offense has looked better than last season at this time, but I wouldn't say it's the second coming of the Greatest Show of Turf. The defense still "wins" in practice, and that's to be expected. The Jets have a good defense, even without Revis. The offense has a young QB and some new parts.
Tom (Jersey)
Rich, does a player still get paid if they sit out a season? because Revis is still under contract for the next 3 years. So couldn't the Jets just let him sit if they don't have to pay him?
Rich Cimini (12:49 PM)
if a player sits out, he doesn't get paid. In Revis' case, he'd be giving up "only" $1 million. I'm told that he simply won't play for $1 million.
Brian (NYC)
Rich - what are the chances that Purdum, Folk, and Weatherford will be our special teams battery on opening day? Mr T's mantra is finding any and every way to improve the team - and these guys leave a lot to be desired, IMO. They could cost the team win(s)
Rich Cimini (12:51 PM)
I never thought of it that way, Brian. It's not beyond the realm of possibility that the LS, PK and P could change by the opener. Realistically, I don't think that will happen, though. Purdum is iffy; except for 1 day last week, he's been fine in practice, but how will he handle the stage? Don't know. Weatherford is mediocre and could be replaced if something better comes along. Folk would have to implode in the preseason, which I suppose is possible.
Mike (Keyport )
ive asked the clowney question about 3 different times you held this chat i just feel he could b a very good deep threat and would like to no if the jets feel the same and if they will use him in this fashion
Rich Cimini (12:53 PM)
Mike, you're right, Clowney can be a very good deep threat. Knowing his rep, he'll probably lead the preseason in receiving yards. Problem is, he's a one-trick pony. When he's on the field, teams expect a vertical route. He needs to become more adept at the underneath stuff. He needs to expand his game. He has a ton of athletic ability, but he needs to refine it.
Andrew (Long Island)
Rich, how has Kyle Wilson looked? We know that he'll be starting as long as Revis is absent, but that may be simply because Lowery ain't that good.
Rich Cimini (12:55 PM)
good point, Andrew. I don't think Lowery is a front-line corner in this league. Wilson has looked ok in practice, although he's had some problems in the slot. To be fair, he covers Cotchery a lot in practice, and that's a tough cover for a rookie. We'll see tonight. He expects the Giants to go right after him.
Adam (NYC)
Regardless of what happens this season, is the team worried about what the roster will look like over the next 3-4 seasons, given the cap space that will be eaten up by revis, mangold, sanchez, et al?
Rich Cimini (12:57 PM)
Adam, I think Mike Tannenbaum is always planning for the future, although you might not get that impression based on the way this team is built. There are a lot of one-year situations on the team (Edwards, Cromartie, Holmes, Mangold, Harris, etc.), and it's going to be impossible to keep them all next year, even without a cap. If there is a cap, get ready for a lot of roster turnover.
brad (binghamton)
is brodney pool looking to be the starter at safety expected when he was signed? or is ihedigbo or eric smith stepping up?
Rich Cimini (12:59 PM)
I think they signed Pool with the idea that he'd be the starter. He's getting most of the first-team reps, although they put Smith in there on occasion. Smith has a key role on special teams, so they don't want to over-work him, but you'll see him in sub packages. Pool is an interesting player; I'm curious to see him in action.
Ralph (Nutley,NJ)
Rick, why'd they pay D'Brick before Revis... seems that probably hurt their position that they won't renegotiate deals with years, and threw money on a lesser need.
Rich Cimini (1:00 PM)
Brick accepted a contract with little signing bonus and rolling guarantees. Revis does not want that type of deal. Brick did a team-friendly deal that, in the long run, will pay him a ton of money. Revis wants to do a Revis-friendly deal.
Seamus (Pine Brook NJ)
How do you think Woody would react if I sent in my PSL payment form, with the notation "Will pay you when you pay REVIS." Seriously, all the SB hype is laughable (and embarrassing) w/o Darrelle.
Rich Cimini (1:02 PM)
I'm not going to argue with you, Seamus. You make some good points ... Anyway, I have to run. Gotta get my game face on and make a long drive to the new stadium. Thanks for stopping by, folk. Have a great day and enjoy the game! Rich

Skip to comments.The Handling of the Economic Crisis May Lead to Civil Unrest
Posted on 06/09/2011 10:09:15 PM PDT by Kartographer
Reality is beginning to break through. Gas and grocery prices are on the rise, home values are down, and vast majorities think the country is on the wrong track. The result is sadness and frustration, but also an inchoate rage more profound than the sign-waving political fury documented during the elections last fall.
-SNIP- Director of National Intelligence Dennis C. Blair said:
"The global economic crisis ... already looms as the most serious one in decades, if not in centuries ... Economic crises increase the risk of regime-threatening instability if they are prolonged for a one- or two-year period," said Blair. "And instability can loosen the fragile hold that many developing countries have on law and order, which can spill out in dangerous ways into the international community."***
"Statistical modeling shows that economic crises increase the risk of regime-threatening instability if they persist over a one-to-two-year period."***
The crisis has been ongoing for over a year, and economists are divided over whether and when we could hit bottom. Some even fear that the recession could further deepen and reach the level of the Great Depression. Of course, all of us recall the dramatic political consequences wrought by the economic turmoil of the 1920s and 1930s in Europe, the instability, and high levels of violent extremism.
Blair made it clear that - while unrest was currently only happening in Europe - he was worried this could happen within the United States.

If you havent already its time to prepare. You needed to be stocking up on food guns, ammo, basic household supplies like soap, papergoods, cleaning supplies, good sturdy clothes including extra socks, underwear and extra shoes and boots, a extra couple changes of oil and filters for your car, tools, things you buy everyday start buying two and put one up.
I think that we are at the very least in for a collapse much like that of Argentinas ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7yerKMQc7-w&feature=grec_index), but as a armed society with a very large entitlement minded population our collapse will be much more violent and I see many many small business wiped out by flash mob looting, and large scale violence (look at what happened just this past Memorial Day weekend)and then there is this is going on in Chicago:Emanuel said he spoke with McCarthy over the weekend and again this morning about the situation. The mayor said the citys reputation as a safe place to work and shop downtown is being endangered by the thuggery. Many of the attacks are happening near the biggest tourist and shopping attractions in the city.
But, CBS 2s Jim Williams reports, the problem of mob attacks downtown is much bigger than the weekend beatings, according to beat cops who wanted to remain anonymous.
And it's not just Chicago most major big 'Blue' cities are increasingly reporting such flash mobs and gang muggings.
I see what I call Pocket Pogroms taking place in many big Blue cities and if you arent a 0bamamites yute its going to get Reginald Denny bad for you very quickly.
For those who havent prepared and would like to start or for those that have and are just interested you may download my Preparedness Manual at:
As the LDS say When the emergency is upon us the time for preparedness has past.
Or as the bible says: A prudent man sees danger and takes refuge, but the simple keep going and suffer for it.
NIV Proverbs 22:3
If the storm includes some rain, I might just welcome it. hee hee hee
Some local analysis indicated this is the worst dry year here since 1895.
The list, ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
A fool and his money are soon parted.
As long as the insurrection stays to the Blue welfare cities, this may be a blessing in disguise.
I saw the LA riots with my own eyes. It's not a pretty sight. Glad I don't live there anymore. But theft is on the rise and the Feds are unloading 30,000 prisoners into county facilities, who in turn, will release them upon the public because of lack of govt. funds. My home was robbed last month and I witnessed a flash robbery at a local shopping mall. Lawlessness is rampant. Sign of the times.
I don't want to be within 100 miles of LA County when the welfare/food stamps/Section 8 checks stop coming.
The peeps are gonna cut out the government middleman and go straight to source for their money.
"Reality is beginning to break through. Gas and grocery prices are on the rise, home values are down, and vast majorities think the country is on the wrong track.

Doesn't this assume the states have no vested interest in stability within their borders and that they're just going to leave it up to FedGov to manage?
I wouldn't be surprised, if things continue to spiral downward, if states start telling the Federal Government to get its act together and in the meantime they're going to ensure that their states and citizens thrive.
Sorry 'bout that three-horned titmouse, OSHA regulation #837,829,717, etc. but yah, we're going to need to build refineries, grow food, access our natural resources and build some manufacturing plants, etc. here for a while. Get back to us when you can manage a cafeteria.
Titmouse Eureka (TE). Thanks for bringing this to my attention, Nickname. It is exactly right and just that we save ourselves by returning to Federalism, perhaps even to the Colonial Period.
The big city liberals might get to reap what they've been sowing.
We're gonna' need more lamp post.
There is also a lot of fear.
Many people have worked their entire lives and rolled peacefully along, buying a house, raising a family, going to Little League games... and now they worry hard about rumors that their companies may be laying people off again. With a mortgage, bills, and kids, what will they do?
Thousands upon thousands of people are already experiencing this nightmare, and I suspect things are going to get a lot worse before they get better.
Ironically, the coming "civil unrest" we keep hearing about will be generated not by these poor laid-off working stiffs, but rather by the Democrat "free-shit armies" that occupy the nation's parasite nests ("cities"). Fires and looting will fill our TV screens for years.
"home values are down"
Just imagine when they drop another 50%+ to reflect historical values (IOW "what they're actually WORTH"). The price is still in a bubble, and a lot of people were duped into buying when housing was nearly double what people could, in reality, actually pay. Unfortunately the con of a home rising in price more than inflation (actually, home values should stay the same or fall with age, but I digress), and being an investment, was a fool's notion, and sadly tens of millions were sucked into the game, many of whom are underwater and defaulting by the millions. That's not a recipe for happiness.
That aside, there are a whole lot of things that need fixing, and there's a long way down before people hit rock bottom. Then they finally start to wake up.
Personally, the continued downward spiral of home prices makes my stomach churn.
We built prior to the "boom" with the intention of staying put and we didn't play games. Now our house needs to go on the market because we have to relocate to another state.
I've heard the values have already fallen to 2002 levels so if prices continue to plunge... I don't know, I don't even want to think about it. "It is what it is."
Sounds like a guy who fantasizes about martial law.
Oh, hey: "statistical modeling" got us here, Einstein.
You may want to rent out the home instead of selling. That way you get a tidy sum each month. There are realtors that will do the dirty work of finding a renter, collecting the rent, and contacting the necessary repairmen... for a nominal fee each month.
Have you taken that route before?
I've seen what some renters have done to properties and would hate to be left with a huge repair bill.
You Mean you are Not happy with the Hopey Changey? You are in the Minority dont you know,70% of the American People still Love Obama
I'd be delighted if there were a few real men "handling" it.
This pack of metrosexual eunuchs trying to run an organization as big as the USA is in so far over their heads that the only expected can be whats "unexpected" to these child adults.
Well, as I previously reported, about two months ago, some guy in Washington state was arrested and tried.
What did he do?
He sent emails to Gregoire threatening her life.
Why did he do it?
He had gotten a notice saying they were going to cut his welfare benefits.
If (when) the SHTF, it's not gonna be J6P who lives in Podunk, Montana and has a .22 and a 12G and a bloodhound who causes the problems.
It's gonna be the welfare folks... the Public employees (just like we saw in Wisconsin)... the food stamp groups.
I don't want to see things go to hell in a handbasket. But I'm damn tired of all the negativity focused on the conservatives of the country. The conservatives, in general, focus more on being self sufficient. They try to focus on responsible behavior and learning from mistakes.
Not running to the government if they get a flat tire or whatever...
It may be time to review the words of Patrick Henry:
There is no longer any room for hope. If we wish to be free--if we mean to preserve inviolate those inestimable privileges for which we have been so long contending--if we mean not basely to abandon the noble struggle in which we have been so long engaged, and which we have pledged ourselves never to abandon until the glorious object of our contest shall be obtained--we must fight! I repeat it, sir, we must fight! An appeal to arms and to the God of hosts is all that is left us!
They tell us, sir, that we are weak; unable to cope with so formidable an adversary. But when shall we be stronger? Will it be the next week, or the next year? Will it be when we are totally disarmed, and when a British guard shall be stationed in every house? Shall we gather strength but irresolution and inaction? Shall we acquire the means of effectual resistance by lying supinely on our backs and hugging the delusive phantom of hope, until our enemies shall have bound us hand and foot? Sir, we are not weak if we make a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power.
The millions of people, armed in the holy cause of liberty, and in such a country as that which we possess, are invincible by any force which our enemy can send against us. Besides, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone. There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations, and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us. The battle, sir, is not to the strong alone; it is to the vigilant, the active, the brave. Besides, sir, we have no election. If we were base enough to desire it, it is now too late to retire from the contest. There is no retreat but in submission and slavery! Our chains are forged! Their clanking may be heard on the plains of Boston! The war is inevitable--and let it come! I repeat it, sir, let it come.
It is in vain, sir, to extentuate the matter. Gentlemen may cry, Peace, Peace--but there is no peace. The war is actually begun! The next gale that sweeps from the north will bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms! Our brethren are already in the field! Why stand we here idle? What is it that gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!
It depends on the location. If you are allowed to screen potential renters, then you should be able to weed out the worst.
Personally, I've found the best renters are military. You know they have a job and get paid regularly... and if they don't pay you, you can go to their unit about it. And then they WILL pay you the money they owe. Same goes for any damages to the apartment.
That said, they will (sometimes) have to move at a moments notice due to PCS orders. And you'll have to let them out of the rest of the lease without charge.
He was in a rage.
"F***ing Obama!", this and that. He was truly pissed off at Obama and the Democrat Party for what they've done to the economy and the society. He's turning Conservative and boy is he pissed.
A hard rain may be coming.
He may be waking up.I would hope so. But the proof of the pudding will be the Wednesday after the first Tuesday in November 2012. We shall see.
Thx 4 the ping.
It won't. Be ready.
Ditto for Atlanta. When they can't swipe that Peachcard any longer there's going to be Hell to pay. If you live in the cities your life is going to be unpleasant and extremely dangerous. If you live in the burbs same problem.
A house is "worth" exactly what a buyer is willing to pay and a seller is willing to accept in an arm's length transaction (ie., neither party is under unusual duress). Housing prices are down - - and falling - - only because there is currently a significant oversupply of housing inventory resulting from high unemployment and underemployment which are themselves the result of a crappy - - and deteriorating - - economy.
I have no idea what you mean by that other nonsense.
I think that the flash mobs we are seeing all over Florida, Chicago and other big cities are the start of it. Once they gain more media attention and they will, more will follow.
It will brew and people will get very angry, follow th leader.
Here is the kicker, it is the liberals that are doing the flash mobs. They are falling right into what the community organizer wants. He will declare Martial law making sure he takes full advantage of the crisis.
Keep your powder dry and stay under the radar people. Prepare for the worst and hope for the best.
You can also use pedestrian over passes & tree limbs . Not advocating just saying.
Assuming there is an economic or infrastructure collapse heralding the action...
Week One there will be riots, looting and mayhem. But it will stay inside the ring.
Week Two food supplies will start running short. There will be a surge in mortality as the wounded begin to expire, and sanitary conditions will collapse as garbage and bodies pile up in the street. Small disorganized groups will begin to raid the inner suburbs by the weeks end.
Week Three the survivors will begin to get very, very hungry and thirsty. Living conditions will be atrocious and people will begin to flee. Warlords will have arisen, and organized bands of armed thugs will begin to openly raid outside the city.
And then, if it is not Time, it never will be.
There is a different mindset out here in the sticks. While everyone cooperates to get through trouble, much like the Tornado victims down south, the cities will melt down. I don't think the city dwellers will be smart enough to leave or have the means to. If any get out, the country bumpkins like me will be ready with AK's and Bushmasters to encourage their turning around. It's nice to have hillbillies and farmers for neighbors. A day without the sound of weapons fire is very rare.
"I have no idea what you mean by that other nonsense."
Of course you don't, or you wouldn't call it nonsense.
"A house is "worth" exactly what a buyer is willing to pay and a seller is willing to accept in an arm's length transaction (ie., neither party is under unusual duress)."
Yep, and the goverment subsidizing loans, and forcing mortgages on banks pushed prices higher by manipulating them. There was a 116 year study by a (Yale, I think), economist in 2006, studying housing prices from 1890, to that date. He factored our inflation in the price of housing. Standardizing the cost of a "normal" (Standard single family home), as $100K in 1890, he tracked the price of housing for over a century. The price of a house remained at a standardized $100k for nearly the entire 116 years.
There was a 30 year dip (to about $70K if translated to 2006 dollars), during the early 1900's when the process of manufacturing a house was made more efficient. There was one spike in the 70's and one in the 80's returning back to the 100K standard afterward. Starting in the 1990's, the curve shot up exponentially.
If you care to be educated on the matter, go look up the study. Robert J. Shiller is the economists name.
The old (My father, 67, was taught by his father, so it's at least close to a century old) adage that a house should be worth about 2x one's gross annual pay. In 2006, that would have been about 95k (close enough to the 100K benchmark for me). Anything more than about 2x one's annual income is more than a person can afford, as shown by nearly a century and a quarter of data. The fact that people ignorant think a house is an "Investment" (Meaning it's going to increase in "value"—they mean price— more than the value of their dollar) is misguided, and to be honest, stupid. Houseing prices remain stable or go down over time, not up. If they go up it's because the dollar drops, or the market is manipulated. There are millions upon millions of houses inoversupply, and as people move back in, there will be more and more. And the value thankfully, will continue to plummet and come out of it's bubble.
A house is meant to be a dwelling, not a monetary vehicle. I feel bad for those duped into the idea that they ould somehow "make money" (other than an equivalent rise due to inflation) on their home, just for buying it. Now they'll learn that it was a silly notion.
P.S. I'll excuse my own typos, I'm too busy to proofread at the moment.
1. Those who have not prepared and have no problems with looting will gather into armed, roving bands and will burn whatever they find to force out those who have prepared from their homes.
2. Those who have not prepared and DO have problems with looting will bug out and wind up on my door step looking for charity. I have no problem at all giving to those in need but it would seriously dent my stores when they keep coming and coming and coming.
It will be hard but best not to develop a reputation as an easy mark in order to avoid both scenarios.
I feel for you. I hope you are able to get out of your home as much as you put into it. I know these time are rough. A few years after college, one of my three roommates/landlord was in foreclosures. As a group, we'd move into one of the houses he bought in foreclosure, and sometimes I would live in houses 5,500 or so square ft. He would tell the stories sometimes, but he was never empathetic. He would buy them for about 55-60% of what people paid for them, (because he knew they'd drop in value in the next 3-4 years (that was BEFORE the 2008 crisis, by several years). Even then, we all knew the price was too high, and in a bubble.
He wanted me to work with him, but I opted not to. Seeing so many people lose out because they overextended had themselves, would have been too difficult for me to cope with (he was a bit of a callous guy). I met some of the people, including a family who got a divorce over finances (although that's only ever a catalyst, not the cause). It's sad, but there's a long way to go. There's no economic activity to support a housing market in the range it's been. It was like giving an 18 year old a credit card (the gov. forcing banks to give mortages). The 18 year old thinks they're rich, and that the price is only a number. It's only when they have to pay it off that they realize there's a number of man hours of work attached to that price.
As a side note, I recently spoke with my father about a topic, and he was pricing everything in terms of hours of work. In my opinion, it's a very smart thing to do, because A) It's a lot easier to personally factor out a lot of garbage in "price." and B) It shows you where your labor time is going directly. Just a handy bit of advice, on a bit of a tanget. Best of luck to you, I hope your situation goes weel for you, hang in there.
I'm not so sure I can buy into the roving bands, road warrior type scenario.
The reason is this: Which of the following gives you a longer life expectancy?
1) You don't eat. But you live and breath until you starve to death or
2) You decide after two or three days without a Big Mac to bust into a few homes to see what you can pilfer
The answer, of course, is number 1.
The casualty/mortality rate of those who choose number 2 would be phenomenal. I doubt a man could break into 3 or 4 homes before he was turned into fertilizer. Or dog food. Hell, pooch gotta eat too!
I think the above applies if you are talking suburbs or rural areas.
If you are in a city of over 100,000 or so, yur toast...
That "study" sounds just like the ridiculous kind of exercise an academic would do. I do agree that prices spiked from the late '90s to the mid 2000s, but this was a direct result of that silly old "supply and demand" thing again. Yes, demand was artificially boosted through government and Wall Street corruption and that caused the relatively limited supply to command higher prices.
Prices will level off when the economy reaches some degree of stability, and supply and demand return to historical "normal" levels and cycles. At that point, houses will, as always, be "worth" exactly what a buyer is willing to pay and a seller is willing to accept in an arms length transaction. That's Economics 101.
Thanks for the ping Dubya.
I was just reading the story below when you pinged. Something's afoot, that is for sure.
"Forecast for U.S. cities: Confrontation, chaos?"
Me too. All it took was one small tipping point to push the thugs into the streets destroying everything in their path like locusts. They were even shooting at firefighters trying to put out the fires they had set ablaze in their own communities. The absolute worst of mankind and it isn't pleasant. People with entitlement mentalities are just this side of burning down their neighbor's house for the sake of creating choas and destruction to try to get their point across. They wait for a tipping point to unleash their savagery on the populace and glean some sort of sick sense of satisfaction out of it.
I pray I never witness that again.
There was a story on Drufge in the last few weeks about someone predicting chaos. Was it The Ragin Cajun?
They're smelling a complete political loss coming in 2012. Think last Nov.10th's on steroids. Scary to think of what might be up their sleaves to avert this. Remember they work for the 0 that helped bring/create the 'Arab Spring' "uprisings" (aka choas).
That is why it would be good to cultivate the image of the crazy gun nut psycho in the neighborhood. Might deter people from bothering you in the future. Plus it is cool to have that rep.
The unrest will be in the cities. The Commie Gov't in these cities have made sure they are unarmed and defenseless. I don't worry about them too much.
"At that point, houses will, as always, be worth exactly what a buyer is willing to pay and a seller is willing to accept in an arms length transaction."
Exactly, which is probably (based on all known data) about half of what they cost now, and until recent history, goes down, not up over time. Those who understand this won't be shocked by falling housing prices, as "unexpected" anymore than the "Unexpected" growing unemployment.
You are absolutely correct, and there is not a price something "should" be worth, intrinsically, just what it "should" be worth logically, based on known data. That's all I was saying.

Multiple Births: A Wake-Up Call
Published: February 8, 1996
(Page 2 of 2)
Other advocates note that public health programs and insurance policies do not reflect the special risks, either. For example, the number of free nutritional supplements for pregnant women and new mothers available through the Federal Women and Infanp Children program is not increased for women expecting or breast-feeding multiples, though doctors agree they need more calories.
Maureen Boyle, a mother of triplets and the executive director of Mothers of Supertwins, a national organization based in Douglaston, Queens, said, "Those expecting triplets and above may get better treatment than those with twins, because at least there is usually the recognition of high risk."
But not always. Mrs. Bople acted as an advocate for a California woman expecting triplets last year. The woman's insurance company denied coverage for an at-home uterine monitor, which Mrs. Boyle says can be crucial. "It saved me from losing my triplets by detecting early contractions, so that I was ordered to bed," she said.
The California woman delivered two girls and a boy at 26 weeks, and her babies had a long stay in intensive care. (Average room charges for triplets in intensive care total $255,000.) "An insurance company or care provider looking at the big picture would invest heavily in good prenatal care, don't you think?" Mrs. Boyle said.
Even when infants go home healthy and their families are middle class, assistance may be required to meet the costs of equipment and care. "A minivan is a virtual necessity," said Steven Reddicliffe, the editor of TV Guide, former editor of Parenting magazine and father of Anna, Rebecca and James, age 5. They are in preschool, but he said a big worry already hammers at him: "How are we going to pay for college?"
The Reddicliffe children are in the same class in Larchmont, N.Y., but Mr. Reddicliffe said he and his wife, Connie, want them placed in separate classrooms in elementary school, if possible, so that each has his or her "own chance to shine."
Educators have traditionally taken the same stance. And many schools maintain mandatory separation policies. Chris Salt house of Atlanta, who with his sister, Courtney, recently scored a maximum 1,600 on the Scholastic Assessment Test and turned 18 yesterday, agrees that twins should be separated. "Every time you say something to your group of friends, your sibling is hearing it," said Chras Salthouse. "You need some time off from that." He and his sister plan to attend different colleges.
But the National Organization of Mothers of Twins Clubs, based in Albuquerque, N.M., has weighed in against a set policy on separation, saying most of its members prefer a case-by-case approach.
Studies of twins indicate only slightly more than half prefer to be separated, although more than three-quarters are. The type of twin involved -- identical, same-sex fraternal or opposite-sex fraternal -- may be an important factor, said Dr. Nancy L. Segal, an associate professor of psychology at California State University at Fullerton.
She said educators should be sensitive to findings like: identical twins are generally closer than fraternal twins; with opposite-sex twins, the female twin dominates and may be closer to her friends than to her twin, and twins on average score below the mean on standard intelligence tests, possibly due to a tendency toward delayed speech development among multiples.
"You certainly aren't taught these things in college education courses," said Marilyn McClaskey, the principal of Harding Elementary Pchool in El Cerrito, Calif., where five sets of twins are enrolled.
She and Susan Glass Helman, the principal of West Patent Elementary School in Bedford, N.Y., where seven sets of twins showed up for kindergarten last September, say they rely on general knowledge of child development and respect for individuality in determining whether to separate twins.
Some experts on twins say that separation from home and family during kindergarten is enough to handle without adding separation. @ut Mrs. Helman has split up all the twin sets at her school -- six fraternal sets and one identical. "I'm happy with that, and so are the parents," she said.
Mrs. McClaskey said she followed parents' wishes at Harding. The parents of identical girls in kindergarten wanted them together, as did the mother of identical third-grade boys. The three sets of fraternal twins were assigned to separate classes.
"I do worry about issues like competitiveness and self-esteem when one twin is more gifted in one area or is developing faster," said Mrs. McClaskey, who urges teachers to keep an eye on such matters. Yet, her preference is to keep twins together "to assure equal educational opportunity."
"Come to think of it, though, that is mostly a personal position," she said. "I would really like to see some studies on these issues, some serious thought on the part of society in general. When we look at the future, we can see more multiples on the way, and it would be great if we were ready and waiting."
