The Home Flipping Bubble Implodes (Again)

Home flipping – buying a home and reselling it within 12 months, hopefully for a profit – is the American entrepreneur’s reaction to the vagaries of the housing market. When these gutsy people perceive a big profit opportunity, such as soaring home prices, they pile into the market, and profit grows on trimmed trees and freshly painted walls and rehabbed bathrooms, and flipping volume soars, and the time it takes to complete a flip drops, and nothing can go wrong. Then something goes wrong.

California Drought Has Already Left Some Homes Completely Without Water

Hundreds of rural San Joaquin Valley residents no longer can get drinking water from their home faucets because California’s extreme drought has dried up their individual wells, government officials and community groups said.

The public has been misinformed regarding human-to-human transmission of Ebola. Assurances that Ebola can be transmitted only through direct contact with bodily fluids need to be seriously scrutinized in the wake of the West Africa outbreak. The Canadian Health Department states that airborne transmission of Ebola is strongly suspected and the CDC admits that Ebola can be transmitted in situations where there is no physical contact between people, i.

Supernatural ‘Jinn’ (Demons?) Seen As Cause Of Mental Illness Among Muslims

It may be common for psychiatric patients who are Muslim to attribute their hallucinations or other symptoms to “jinn,” the invisible, devilish creatures in Islamic mythology, researchers in the Netherlands have found. The findings demonstrate one way in which culture may influence how people perceive their psychotic symptoms, and could help Western psychiatrists better understand patients who have an Islamic background.

Complicating the situation is the fact states around the country are having trouble tracking and prosecuting the crimes because their enforcement budgets have been slashed despite the rapidly-rising number of food stamp recipients, according to the Government Accountability Office report. Under the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, 47 million people have been awarded $76 billion in benefits.

Is Big Brother spying on your computer – with your own cell phone?

As you know if you’ve been reading my blog for a while, I’ve written several articles on OPSEC. This one hits a lot closer to home. In order to live in a technological society, you have to give up certain expectation of privacy from those who have the technology to tap into certain systems.

Did You Know That Some Of The Largest Charities In The U.S. Are Just Giant Money Making Scams?

Some of the biggest “charities” in America are literally stealing money from people.  For example, how would you feel if you gave money to help disaster victims or to fund cancer research and you later found out that more than 97 percent of the money that you donated never got into the hands of the people that actually needed it?  Sadly, that is happening all over the United States today.
