I'd love to join! I have played for years (but haven't played recently). Also am a high functioning adult, and am married. I'm located in the city too, so doesn't seem like you would be too far away. I also don't smoke and don't cope well when people do (I always end up wheezing)

We can't blindly trust courts. The fact that a court convicted someone is not proof that someone is guilty or innocent. You could consider it an argument for someone's guilt/innocence, but not irrefutable proof.

Critical thinking matters. I don't know if this guy is guilty or not, and I don't think anyone can be 100% sure for this particular case.

As did the court that convicted the central park 5, who were later found to be innocent.

Natural resources matter. The plastics produced for these homes and the lumber that has to be harvested. I don't care if under armor spends money, I care about material waste.

Does it? There are so many houses for sale near me and they are all way more than I can afford. I would love for more houses to be available - I just want them to be rehabilitated vacant homes instead of wasting materials building overpriced townhomes that will fall apart in 10 years.

I personally want owners of vacant homes to be forced to sell them if they have been vacant for over two years. I worry that more home construction will lead to more homes that will just become vacant. I am sick of the fires and drug overdoses that happen in vacant homes. I think it is fair to request we fix the ones we already have before building more.

The housing put in would not be affordable, and we already have too many vacant houses in this city. There is NOT a housing shortage here, and I am surprised you don't understand that.

We have too many houses in the city and not enough residents. Adding more houses benefits no one, and leads to more vacant houses that kill firefighters. It is so wasteful to build new houses when so many are being knocked down.

Thank you for weighing in! It indeed confirms my suspicions that minimally these scores (if they are real) do not reflect actual ability

How do the parents feel about this? My parents were always hyper focused on grades, and I can't imagine them being okay with me failing math.

So the price of labor is going up? I didn't realize that. I just thought there were vacancies, not that they couldn't afford to have a full staff.

Why do they need to spend more money to have less workers? I genuinely don't understand

Let me give you a situation here:

Brenda and Lisa buy their first house. It is tiny and they really have to scrimp and save to afford it, but it is theirs and they love it. Within the first few years of owning the house, Brenda loses her job in her niche field due to a recession. After months of unemployment she finally finds a job, but it is several hours away from their home. They end up moving away for Brenda's job.

At this point if they were to sell the house they would lose $20,000 due to the current market and real estate agent fees. They are not in a position to take on a loss like this -- especially with the debt they accumulated when Brenda was unemployed.

You are telling me that Brenda and Lisa should be forced to take on a $20,000 loss or be taxed heavily? That they shouldn't rent out their house to cover their mortgage while they try to recoup their losses? That they are bad people for being landlords?

I have never owned property but would one day like to own my own home. For now, my husband and I rent a wonderful rowhome at an amazing price with a back yard for our dog. For the same price we could rent a 1 to 2 bedroom apartment with no outdoor area. We would not be living in Baltimore if we could not rent a single family home.

Oh I haven't been able to find out anything about it online whatsoever, so I was hoping you had a link to an event page or something

Where did you see this advertised?

Ok Karen
