A couple of weeks ago at a building industry function, I asked a panel of homebuilders including reps from Centex, Standard Pacific and John Laing why weren't offering price guarantee programs along the lines of those offered by KBHome and Ryland.Their answer: most builders will refund money to a potential buyer still in escrow if the value of their home falls in between the time they sign the contract and closing, but you have to ASK for it. The fact that KBHome and Ryland are promoting the program has more to do with their ad strategies and creating higher comfort levels among potential buyers than a totally unique program. Although the fact that they have announced these programs would certainly make it easier for a home buyer to benefit, it's probably good advice to simply ask all b

  This is unbelievable, well, actually it is the ACLU so no, it’s not so unbelievable. The ACLU is claiming a person should not be denied a visa to come to the United States to protest the war because of the freedom of speech.
The First Amendment right to freedom of speech should be interpreted as preventing the U.S. government from denying a visa to a foreign critic of U.S. war-time policy who has been invited to speak here, even when national security concerns are cited, the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) is claiming in a federal lawsuit.
 Now forgive me for asking a stupid question here, but doesn’t the freedom of speech, guaranteed in the UNITED STATES constitution only apply to Americans? Don’t you have to actually be a citizen of the United States to be afforded the protections of the constitution?
 The Aclu will stop at nothing to push their radical leftist positions upon the American people by using the court system. This is the latest example of t
Thanks and a tip of the hat to The Gathering Storm whose email alerted me to this!The quotes below are from an article in the Gulf Times.Islam guarantees every citizen basic human rights and a successful society will have to be based on these principles, said Dr Mubarak al-Kuwari, an Awqaf official, while delivering a lecture at the two-day workshop organised by the Ministry of Interior (MoI) yesterday. [Emphasis added.] The words in bold face are deceptive; substitute every Muslim to make the statement truthful. Conquered pagans & atheists must revert to Islam be killed; Jews, Christians & Zoroastrians are allowed to retain their religion, but are subjected to severe legal, social & economic restrictions, making them less than second class citizens. Refer to the Pact of Umar for the details.“The Shari’ah (jurisprudence) of Islam doesn’t allow mistreatment of any other human being, regardless of creed, ethnicity or religion and treats all humans equally,” Sharia

Of course, undoubtedly one person’s profit, sometimes and somewhere affects the other person indirectly. The part competition is playing for both the consumer and the seller. Individuals now, have wide range of quality products and that too at competitive prices. With the change, everything changes, likewise the financial market. To the effect, commercial market has undergone a tremendous change over the years. Unlike previously, availing the benefits of loans has become rather easy on easy terms and conditions. Just like an unsecured loan which is deemed to be contained in higher interest rate due to the absence of collateral. Giving borrower benefits of unsecured loans on lower rates, the lending authority has designed out low rate unsecured loan.In Low Rate Unsecured Loan the risk on the lender’s part increases. The lender has no security about his money. Hence he offers loan on the basis of your credit history. The loan amount will depend upon how good your credit history is. B

Having grown up with money being tight and now having been married for nearly nine years with my husband in school the entire time while I have been blessed to stay home with two little ones, I have learned some creative ways to make our money stretch. One thing that works well for us is we make companies stand by their product. If I am going to spend our hard earned dough (or the money the government so kindly loans us poor students) on something, then I want it to be worth it.
Now don’t get me wrong, I don’t abuse the system and I also don’t expect things never to break especially when I have a two year old little man in the house. I operate with good consumer logic and I maintain reasonable expectations. Ethics and integrity are definite qualities I like to possess. However, (more…)
The majority of this morning's New York Times article on the auto-oriented provisions of the new energy bill profiles the industry's posturing, infighting and kvetching over higher Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standards. To wit, “'We’re not whiners,' Dominique Thormann, a senior vice president at Nissan North America, said in Washington during a lunch with reporters on Wednesday, in a thinly veiled jab at competitors that originally fought fuel economy increases." Breeze through this politically correct interpretation-- transplants ready to rumble, domestics foot (not to say knuckle) draggers, Toyota playing both side down the middle-- and Michelle Maynard finally reveals some of the more important "details." For example, we learn that the bill offers federal loan guarantees to "help auto companies that invest in factories that are at least 20 years old to build vehicles with advanced technology." Hey! Guess what? The General
