Concern over 'zero carbon' homes:
"People felt the eco-friendly buildings would require extra maintenance and that they would have to cut back on certain appliances, it added.
The National House-Building Council (NHBC) Foundation study said buyers also feared the homes would cost more.
The government has set a target that all new homes in England must have no net carbon emissions by 2016."

AEY’s Awful Afghan Ammo: Is It An Affirmative Action Scandal?
AEY’s Awful Afghan Ammo: Is It An Affirmative Action Scandal?: "In the wake of the NYT’s story on 22-year-old high school-dropout Efraim E. Diveroli, who snagged $202,000,000 in U.S. government ammunition contracts in Fiscal Year 2007 to supply bullets to the embattled Afghan government, many people are wondering how the federal government could have handed out such a big contract to some loser who has been arrested twice in his young life: for drunk driving and for beating up a parking valet."

Sense of Events: The World War II Memorial
Nice story of the few "Greatest" remaining and their silent bravery and quiet honor.
I'm always amazed and emotional when i see these fine Americans, of any age, as they visit a military memorial.
God bless them all!

ABC News: Whom Can You Believe? Democratic Campaign Claims Don't Hold Up
ABC News: Whom Can You Believe? Democratic Campaign Claims Don't Hold Up: "'I did speak out and opposed NAFTA,' Clinton told an AFL-CIO audience in Philadelphia. 'I raised a big yellow caution flag. I said, 'I'm not sure this is going to work.''
But if Clinton 'spoke out' against NAFTA, she did so quietly and behind closed doors, and made no mention of it in her 2003 autobiography 'Living History.'"

Lucianne.com News Forum
Lucianne.com News Forum: "my father-in-law who is 71 believes this nonsense fervently. He goes off the deep end when it comes up as if we (the US) are causing the world to destruct. The 'Arctic Ice Sheets are melting' he emphatically insisted. He actually think Florida will be under water in 10 years. That evening I went to the Daily Arctic Ice Sea Maps website and printed out 2 color photos to prove him wrong. You know what he said, 'That Website was out up by Bush to try to get out of Kyoto'."

Obama Record tells another truth
Maybe it's how he voted and not what he says?
Aren't "aborted fetuses who survive" HUMAN BEINGS?
"He voted against requiring medical care for aborted fetuses who survive. He supported allowing retired police officers to carry concealed weapons, but opposed allowing people to use banned handguns to defend against intruders in their homes. And the list of sensitive topics goes on."
