with the huge floods in alberta the news now is starting to cover the issue of property damange and insurance.. we've never really thought a lot about insurance cover for flooding because it became a big issue in the uk about 5-10 years ago with limited land availability leading to building on flood plains and the eventual inevitable consequences and so when we bought over here we didn't buy anywhere that was a possible flood risk.
our choice seems to have worked out as we've been completely untouched by the recent issues but tragically, others have been less fortunate and apparently few people are covered for 'overland flooding' which is where water enters your house through doors and windows.. it's hard to really know what is fair.
i understand the reason why insurers don't cover it and the arguments on both sides.. one one hand, we included the flood risk when puchasing a home.
In the United States if you are in a high-risk flood zone you are required to purchase flood insurance. Moderate-risk zones are not required by the federal government but some lenders will require it with your mortgage.
If I remember correctly I believe premiums for flood insurance normally run about $500 annually.
it,s simple, i can not remember crap from my previous life.. the wife told me today if you come back in the next life, please.
take some science classes.. if i could remember a small percentage of my life today, just a little.
bit, man would it make a difference.. in school i would be 100% nerd, geek, book worm.
Yeah but rocks haven't been here forever. What if a rock gets broken in two?
Buffalo Mozzarella is kind of pricy. It has a really short shelf life too so you better use it quick! It is used in a lot of Italian dishes. It is normally just called Fresh Mozzarella. I think it's about $10 a pound.

I don't believe reincarnation is real, because if it was, when did it start?
ok i started another thread and every one jumped on me because i was trying to take the theory of evolution out of the mix and most here seem to believe in it so i will just say it.
the theory of major evolution is crap!
the theory is falling apart.
10 or even 7 years ago I might have posted this thread. Then I, after pulling my head (which the WT jammed up there) out of my ass, realized I was blinded by WT propaganda.
before the usual suspects start reaching for the pich-forks and forming a mob, i invite you to actually read and consider this, not just leap to conclusions.. http://www.globalpost.com/dispatch/news/regions/americas/united-states/130607/7-graphs-america-overrated-nsa-prism-privacy.
why do i care?
it seems the people being screwed the most are also the most visciferous defenders of the status quo which sees them being severely disadvantaged.. maternity leave?
I turn to Lewis Black about this subject... NSFW LANGUAGE

ok so if the bible is nothing more then a pagan religious book, then how do all of you that think this, think we got here?
and please don't tell me you believe in evolution, because even the experts are finding major flaws in that theory.
so what is your opinion??
People who say things like "evolution is just a theory" must have failed basic science classes in grade school. One of the first things you are taught is the scientific method. If you can't grasp even that basic method for scientific analysis, then you should not have passed any science class.
I'd be interested to know what facts and experts you are referring to.
one of the most persistent myths on this website is that jws are already in decline, the rot has set in, and the descent of the watchtower is inevitable from here on in.
unfortunately the facts do not bear this out.
jws are still increasing even in most developing countries, and they are still growing worldwide at a faster rate than the general population.
I think the number of hardcore JW's has declined. I'd say most are just putting on a show.

There are good things about America, and there are bad things about America.
