All of the apartment complexes i live in have these damn speed bumps, which i drive over VERY slowly and carefully. I am not joking when i say that i've spent 3000 dollars combined on repairs for my 2 cars over the last few years and ALL of these repairs have been for suspension/front end repairs such as bearings, various bushings, CV joints and a few other things that I can't remember the names of.CAN I SUE THE LANDLORD FOR THIS HATE AGAINST MY CAR?
It's not a racist question, not at all. Part of the African American community is up in arms about the same thing. Hip Hop - Beyond Beats Rhymes was a very interesting documentary which took a look at some of the issues you brought up. Bill Cosby's new book also takes a look at the factors which are breaking down values and the black family structure, and the rap culture is named as a culprit. Many others have spoken up as well I listened to rap as a teenager, and I still listen to it today, though my tastes have changed. Now the money/drugs/bit***s game is played out for me. The fact is rap, like any other form of media, *can* have a negative influence, but it depends on the content. Right now, with the degradation of women, the glorification of violence, the focus on bling/useless displays of wealth, and the other issues - yes, absolutely, much of the rap out today negatively influences our society. However, there are many artists out there who are trying to change the game. If you listen to some Mos Def, Common, Talib Kweli, etc you quickly see that rap/hip-hop is far from dead, and it doesn't necessarily have to be so devoid of artistic content, intellectualism, and positive messages. It's up to the consumers to demand change their tastes are dictating the market, and the record execs are only asking their artists for what they know will sell.
There's more than enough material in a single 5 kg extinguisher for the average person (meaning, not a trained firefighter) to safely address small fires in an 1100 ft2 apartment. The issue affecting how many extinguishers to provide is the ease/safety/speed of access to an extinguisher based on your dwelling's floor plan, and the location and nature of higher-risk fire sources. You need to be sure an extinguisher is located so that a potential fire does not block your path to the extinguisher or to your exit(s) from the apartment. Here's how I would assess things: 1. One for the kitchen area for surelots of ignition sources there. 2. If your apartment comes with an enclosed garage for your exclusive use, locate one there. (I have a single-family house with its own garage, so need one there.) 3. If you have a gas-fired water heater, clothes dryer, and/or furnace inside of the apartment, consider one for those areas if they are far away from the location/s of other extinguishers. (I have fired equipment in the attic space, so I need one available to address those risks.) 4. The minimum number is one per level of your dwelling. Rushing up or down stairs in search of an extinguisher is a recipe for disaster. (I have a two-story house, so I need at least two.) If you can't extinguish the fire with a 5kg unit, get out and call in the pros (fire department). You can replace stuff, you can't replace you or your loved ones.
That is definitely not the FBI's jurisdiction. NASA and / or other government space agencies might be able to stop an asteroid depending on its size, its speed, and how soon they detect it. A nuke would be a joke, it would make the problem 10 times worse as now you have many tiny fragments coming at you. It's like turning a cannon blast into a shotgun blast, pointed right at us. A device such as a gravity tractor would work much better. A gravity tractor is just a heavy object placed near the asteroid in such a way as to pull it away from its target (Earth).
