Family housing in the city is especially scarce and expensive. A two-bedroom, 1,000-square-foot starter home is considered a bargain at $760,000.
San Francisco's large gay population — estimated at 20 percent by the city Public Health Department — is thought to be one factor,

Housing costs? That should be mansion homes.
Nature created this group to decrease population. It is a sign of too many people.

Committee chairman, Kansas Sen. Pat Roberts, noted that other government agencies already had subpoena power to investigate matters such as child pornography, drug investigations and medical malpractice. He said it made little sense to deny those same powers to the FBI to investigate terrorism or keep track of foreign intelligence agents.

So much for privacy, did anyone think THIS government really wanted citizens to have ANY freedom?

Clear skies end global dimming

Clear skies end global dimming
http://www.nature.com/news/2005/050502/full/050502-8.html
Reductions in industrial emissions in many countries, along with the use of particulate filters for car exhausts and smoke stacks, seem to have reduced the amount of dirt in the atmosphere and made the sky more transparent.
That sounds like very good news. But the researchers say that more solar energy arriving on the ground will also make the surface warmer, and this may add to the problems of global warming.
Are scientests really necessay? They bitch when people dirty the air and they bitch when people clean the air.

The material contained no indication of the cost of the proposals or how Pelosi and other Democratic leaders would propose paying for them. Many Democrats advocate rolling back tax cuts that Congress has passed in recent years that benefit the wealthy and spending the money on social programs or using it to reduce the deficit.

Of course the dems want to get rid of any tax cuts, they want all the money except their money.
