Wouldn't the Lithium-ion batteries batteries have to be in use to catch fire? Neither article says how much of them were on the plane, in in cargo hold.

Wouldn't drones be well suited to search for the wreckage over open ocean?

Hmmm...I have yet to see the proof.

What is it you are looking for him to provide? Addresses an sales histories?

Just curious.

Where are the buyers? In China.

Who are they? Gay Trillionaire Chinidians who shit gold and eat caviar off the asshole of their gay lover.

@ Call it Crazy

The generation which is supposed to buy isn't because of baby boomer assholes who bought extremely cheap and now expect them to buy it 100X for a 3/2 shithole.

They took their jobs, refuse to retire, refuse to die and now have the nerve to make smart-aleck remarks such as "get a job!"...

"go to college and pay all by yourself 6 figures which should magically materialize somehow"

Yet all over this forum you've not accepted that the boomers are bunch of fucking hypocrites who have a large blame (not the only blame).

You blame the younger teen to 30's generation.

Even though every articles like these you post all over about lowest housing sales ever.

The majority of house buyers are supposed to be early 20's to mid 35's.

Not old fuck's. The old fuckers belong in the senior citizen housing community open house.

Articles like these prove that the demographic (20-35 years age) which is supposed to buy is not able to afford the prices and the job market is prejudiced against them.

No-one will give them experience. But the boomer asshole had everything handed to them.

Those dirty cockroach slave degenerate motherfuckers.

Let's see if I can sum up this big paragraph in three words.....

Whaa, Whaa, Whaa......

Let's see if I can sum up this big cowardly response in a few words...

"I'm a coward boomer with a vested interest who has no rebuttal, no comeback, no counter-argument and cannot come with any logical defense for each point... So I resort to childish "Whaa, Whaa, Whaa" jokes and other "talk to my hand" 5-year old ways to get out of arguments because I'm a boomer asshole who pretends to be an adult but has had everything handed to them but has the nerve to criticize others who I expect to mooch off my pension from."

Go fuck yourself... You've been dismissed and exposed as a cowardly boomer who can't counter-back.

Its more lack of demand than lack of inventory.

We will also take into account the 6% commission to exit the trade.

Ok, so you will consider it a "win" if the median Price increases less than 6%.

The combination of steep price appreciation and rising mortgage rates is likely coming as a shock to many prospective buyers, particularly first-timers.

That is the crux of the problem and why the "recovery' can't last

I bet that it makes a little tiny zig zag here and there all year. Like a little bipolar line that when looked at distance, or when looked at over a two year span, is nothing more than a flatline. I think it will start to head noticably down in November, but not a crash, just slowly downhill for a few years. Of course, I'm not betting because my prediction is just a layman's guess, and you two clearly have more experience.

Other than rhetoric that is silly and intellectually weak shorthand for "Democrats" suck, I don't even accept the premise.

If Carter sucked (and I don't accept that he did), by what metric would you not judge George H. W. Bush as "Carter", or George W. Bush as "Carter"? I say Reagan was a two-term version of Nixon, what..with all the ass-fucking they both gave the constitution.

Both Bush Presidents had approval ratings equal to or below Carter's at their lows. Carter never had a massive terror attack on his watch, either.

"He kept us safe!!!". If he were a Republican, the convention would have howled with delight, chanting that slogan like a Buddhist monk.

You picked the wrong county.
You should have bet on Modesto.

Who knows how many gay Billionaires want to live in Santa Clara?

44345   John Bailo   2014 Mar 21, 4:06am  

Unless you have a lot of self-control, it's easy to let the spending go way, way up. I know because I used to be there and it took some personal Shock Doctrine to ratchet down my needs.

However, it's oh so easy to get sucked down the drain. Case in point, my son visiting from college. I usually take him shopping for clothes when he periodically visits. However, while I myself shop at Wal*Mart, he wants stuff from the department stores. Last time, he gathered up a few multicolored shirts (not far from t-shirts) at Macy's and with a few other things, cologne, it ended up being $600. That's an extrodinary sum for me. I just bought my years wardrobe of t-shirts and sweatpants for under $100.

The only way that house prices go down in SFBA is if rents go down. What I can tell you is that exact same floor plan that I rented in my last year as a renter (mid 2010 - mid 2011 lease) is now 41.9% higher than it was back then. The rental rates are sticky even despite the tax cut on social security tax going away. So, rental rates have increased on average by 10% a year since 2010. Now, I don't think that this type of annual rental increase is sustainable in the long run but at the same time rents show no signs of declining in upper tier apartment complexes, most likely driven by demand of tech workers. So why would house prices decrease since I am sure that most people have some type of annual rent ratio in their minds when they make buy vs rent decisions?

No, it isn't. The median list price is 829k.

http://www.redfin.com/county/345/CA/Santa-Clara-County

If you click the link it shows the pagw at the top of this thread. Sale prices are the only real measure. People can list at anything.

Oh right, Santa Clara, not the county. Don't you think 157 houses is a rather restricted range to set your price point from? Why not pick a larger catchment area for a more realistic picture?

No escrow in their right minds will take this on.

No one needs to know its a bet of any sort. We just need a third party.

Escrow needs a contract. How will they know who won?

Go back and ask the people in the 2007 to 2009 date ranges if they liked the 3% annual climb they had in prices....

Sure. But it's a question of whether we are more like 2004 or 2006.

Why does it have to be a boom or a bust?
It could be a slow moving boring market for years.

Then perhaps you should take him shopping at WalMart instead.

Most drones don't have the kind of range needed. They are long-endurance and low-speed to loiter over combat zones. The infamous Predator for example:

Range: 675 nmi (675 mi or 1,100 km)

A nearby ship could do lots of detailed searching I suppose, but ship-launched is more complex. The X47-B could do it, but it's not operational yet.

44362   Vicente   2014 Mar 21, 6:57am  

Well everyone knows Obama is an empty suit, and wears Mom jeans. Obama also knows EVERYTHING thanks to the NSA and is an iron-fisted dictator. Just like Jimmy Carter.
