    Unfortunately Tucson doesn't put up much of a defense when it comes to that comment. People who aren't from the area and who visit Tucson probably think it's a border town because of how dirty it is. Nothing to do with the racism or anything like that, it's just a dirty city. The city of Tucson prioritizes it's upkeep in the popular and wealthy places like the north side while it just turns it's eye away from everything else like it's being written off. Tucson is going down the drain and it won't be long before it looks like east Detroit. I have lived in Tucson for 41 years. You are right. It is going down the dump. We can thank the Liberal City Clown-cil, that the knuckleheads of this town keep voting for. Not business friendly. Not to mention the cheap labor, that has made quality jobs very hard to come by.

  4. Normally if it is not in the original signed lease, it would not be legal. It is your home, and not a hotel. I think you could tell them to pound sand, and there would be nothing they could do, and you are under no obligation to sign an addendum to your lease if you don' want to. However, when your lease comes up for renewal, then there could be complications if you try to re-sign. I was in the apartment maintenance business. I have seen first hand what property managers try and get away with.

  6. Flight 370 reality check: A Boeing 777 doesn't disappear unless governments want it to disappear Sunday, March 30, 2014 by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger Editor of NaturalNews.com (See all articles...) Tags: Flight 370, reality check, government involvement (NaturalNews) As the conventional news coverage of Flight 370 becomes increasingly delusional and detached from reality, for the sake of all those families and loved ones still suffering I thought it important to publish a reality check that can help bring the discussion back to some common sense. Let's cover five indisputable facts about governments, radar and aircraft: Fact #1) Every modern nation tracks air traffic with military radar systems All the key nations involved in Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 run military radar systems 24/7. This includes Malaysia and India, of course. These radar systems are operated for purposes of national defense, making sure each nation can identify aircraft entering its air space. If you don't believe that military-grade radar systems can track the altitude, direction and speed of a Boeing 777, then you don't believe in radar at all. Fact #2) Every modern nation runs civilian air traffic control "passive" radar systems that work even without aircraft transponders Beyond the military radar, modern nations also run air traffic control radar systems which work in both "active" (transponder) modes and "passive" mode (requiring no transponder). Although civilian air traffic control systems are generally not as powerful or accurate as military systems, they are nonetheless fully capable of detecting and tracking a Boeing 777. In fact, as any air traffic controller will tell you, their radar systems are fully capable of tracking flocks of birds and other airborne objects which are far smaller than a Boeing 777. Fact #3) A Boeing 777 has a massive radar signature Unless equipped with some sort of exotic technology we've never heard of -- like a radar "invisibility cloak" borrowed from the Klingons of Star Trek -- a Boeing 777 has a massive radar signature. The cylindrical fuselage, curved wings and surface controls (flaps, ailerons, rudder) all reflect radar waves with very high efficiency. A commercial Boeing aircraft is not a stealth bomber. The explanation that this Boeing 777 "vanished" from radar simply doesn't hold water. And if the explanation is that "the pilot flew the aircraft at very low elevation to evade radar," then it makes no sense that the pilot would carry out this complex evasion for 4-7 hours and then plunge the aircraft into the Indian Ocean. Furthermore, a suicidal pilot has no need to evade radar in the first place! If he wanted to crash the plane, he could have done it immediately after takeoff, or at any point during the first few minutes of flight. There is no need to evade radar if you wish to consciously crash the aircraft. Fact #4) Boeing 777 aircraft cannot survive a collision with the ocean and remain intact One of the most ridiculous theories currently being floated around the mainstream media -- and written by journalists who apparently have no education in fundamental physics or flight mechanics -- is that Flight 370 "crashed" into the Indian Ocean and somehow magically remained fully intact! Although it's comforting to think that airplanes are made of incredibly strong steel that can withstand high-velocity impacts with bodies of water, the far more sobering truth is that aircraft are flimsy structures made primarily of aluminum. Aircraft are not rigid; they flex and bend, even during flight. If you've ever watched the wings during flight, you've no doubt noticed that they have a surprisingly wide range of movement, almost as if the wings are flapping. An aircraft fuselage moves, bends, expands and compresses due to changes in temperature, ambient pressure and structural stress. A large commercial aircraft that crashes into water simply cannot remain intact. While there are some miraculous water landings where skilled pilots were able to "land" aircraft on water thanks to near-stall speeds, flaps and amazing flying skills, a full-speed crash into water can never result in the aircraft remaining fully intact. The nose, wings, fuselage and tail would all be torn apart by impact with a body of water. Even many attempted "water landings" still result in huge structural failures of the aircraft, as seen in this photo of a relatively gentle water landing of a flight headed for Bali: An actual crash into water would produce a massive amount of debris, including seats, bodies and other debris easy to spot from satellite imagery or rescue searches. Fact #5) A vanishing of Flight 370 would have taken the cooperation of governments Here's the most astonishing fact of all: because of all the facts stated above, the vanishing of Flight 370 must have required intentional planning and action from at least one government (and possibly more). Somebody is covering up the truth of what happened to MH370, and it looks almost certain that the Malaysian government is part of this cover-up, as I previously reported. The mainstream media is extremely reluctant to ever report on any sort of government cover-up, preferring to pretend that governments are always transparent and honest with the people of the world. Although such an idea is utterly laughable, it remains the default position of the conventional media. That's why the media prefers to run with other theories such as "pilot suicide" or "flight accident," neither of which withstand scrutiny of the facts. (Case in point: If it crashed into the ocean, the black boxes would have been transmitting their location for weeks now, and they would be easy to find.) World governments routinely lie and deceive the public, of course. As a simple example of that, the U.S. government has now been exposed as spying on all the other governments of the world with an above-top-secret NSA spy program revealed by Edward Snowden. Before his revelations, anyone suggesting the government was "listening to your phone calls" was immediately called a crackpot by the clueless conventional media. Now, of course, we all have come to realize that the NSA really is recording all your phone calls, text messages, social media posts and financial transactions. This is no longer a secret. It's not a conspiracy theory. It's business as usual at the highest levels of government. And yes, it's wildly illegal, but it goes on nonetheless. That's why the idea that a government "couldn't possibly have lied about Flight 370" is preposterous. Of course a government could lie about Flight 370. It is far harder for any government to tell the truth than to lie, in fact. And the government of Malaysia no more adheres to truth and transparency than the U.S. government, the Russian government or even the government of China. All governments routinely lie to the public almost by default. To expect a government to tell you the truth about anything is to live in fantasy land. But if you are crazy enough to believe that governments never lie, then I'm happy to report to you that Obamacare now has 6 million enrollees who have all paid their insurance premiums, the national debt of the USA is rapidly shrinking by the hour, nobody in Washington D.C. ever abuses power, the gun-running conspiracy by California Democratic Senator Leland Yee never happened and your tax dollars are always put to a positive purpose for the betterment of society. Conclusion Flight 370 most likely did not crash; it was almost certainly taken over (possibly by remote control) and flown to a destination with all passengers alive and the aircraft in one piece. What happens from there is anyone's guess, but the most likely use of such a stolen aircraft is to turn it into a massive airborne weapons delivery system to be outfitted with biological, chemical or nuclear weapons. Believe me when I say this is the real scenario being discussed behind closed doors at the Pentagon. The "pilot suicide" explanation is merely the sucker's version of events for public consumption.

    I will be finding out any day now, that I didn't get drawn for Elk.
  21. A fire in the cockpit, or avionics panels would disrupt things in a hurry. Especially if they couldn't see what they were doing. I feel bad for the people on that plane. It would, really, really, suck, to be a passenger under those circumstances. The families now have to deal with the aftermath, and closure.
  22. Makes theoretical sense. Wouldn't the pilots have had enough time to make a distress call, before any fire disabled the comm link? I don't know any truth to the story, but it was originally stated that the transponders went out around 20 minutes apart? Considering the redundant systems on sophisticated aircraft, I wonder how a fire would take them out that quickly?
  23. Flight MH370 Found? Not Quite – Now the Real Whitewash Begins. March 25, 2014 By 21wire 26 Comments 21st Century Wire says… After nearly one month of turning up absolutely nothing, suddenly the public are being told that the case of missing Malaysian airliner MH370 has been solved, well, sort of… It was a search and rescue operation on an unprecedented scale, combing through over 30,000 nautical miles, involving 60 ships and 50 aircraft – all in an effort to find one missing Boeing 777 which is said to have set off from Kula Lumpur to Beijing on March 8, 2014, only to disappear into thin air, without a trace. This week Malaysian authorities made the dramatic announcement that they had finally “found” the aircraft, without any “debris sighting” . On cue, global mainstream media outlets ran continuous coverage on Monday March 24th of this week, showing footage of men looking out the window of Royal Australian Air Force P-3, looking rather intensely at a trail of smoke hanging over the water, but failed to tell viewers in many instances – that this was merely a “smoke marker placed there”, no doubt for the cameras. This,we are told, is meant to draw a line under the story in a communal ‘move on’ moment. The Malaysian prime minister boldly announced that analysis of satellite data concludes “beyond a doubt” that the plane had in fact gone down in the southern Indian Ocean 2,500 kilometers (1,500) west of Perth, Australia. A few object were said to be found, but these were not shown on TV or to media. “Objects could be picked up in a few hours”, Malaysia’s transport minister said, while Australian PM Tony Abbott said, “One object was circular and grey or green, and the other rectangular and orange – but it could be flotsham“. In reality, nothing. What is clear now – is that there is still no evidence of a Being 777 crash-landing there. Here where things get dicey: this suddenly incredible “debris sighting” has been based on information from one private British telecoms firm, Inmarsat, who run a fleet of 30 satellites globally overlapping with systems run by US-based Raytheon. Inmarsat claim to have come to their conclusion based on data “relayed between the plane and ground station by satellite”. Inmarsat then sent its computer findings on Friday to the UK Air Accident Investigation Branch based in Aldershot, Hampshire, who spent one day “going over the figures” before sending it to the Malaysian authorities. Of all the likely destinations for the missing flight, it seems incredible that would fly for 3 or more hours south, only to ditch the plane in the water miles from any land mass. This latest conclusion is based almost solely on computer modeled data – supplied by Inmarsat, and as yet, no physical proof that Flight MH370 has actually crashed at the location they are claiming it did. By contrast, an actual eyewitness sighting was reported the morning of the crash, but was more or less ignored by all governments and mainstream media outlets. Haveeru local news previously confirmed that, “Residents of the remote Maldives island of Kuda Huvadhoo in Dhaal Atoll have reported seeing a “low flying jumbo jet” on the morning of the disappearance of the Malaysia Airlines flight MH370.” That report continues: “Eyewitnesses from the Kuda Huvadhoo concurred that the aeroplane was travelling North to South-East, towards the Southern tip of the Maldives – Addu. They also noted the incredibly loud noise that the flight made when it flew over the island. “I’ve never seen a jet flying so low over our island before. We’ve seen seaplanes, but I’m sure that this was not one of those. I could even make out the doors on the plane clearly,” said an eyewitness. “It’s not just me either, several other residents have reported seeing the exact same thing. Some people got out of their houses to see what was causing the tremendous noise too.” Coincidentally, The Maldives Islands are more or less along a direct flight path to the US and British island military base at Diego Garcia. Make of that what you will, but you cannot discount this in connection to reports that one of the MH370 pilots has Diego Garcia plotted on his own home flight simulator. Confusion was stirred up even more after retired United States Air Force Lieutenant General, Thomas G. McInerney, turned up on a FOX News program hosted by Mike Huckaby, proceeding to infer that the US has known all along where the plane had traveled, and that the missing Boeing 777 was already in Central Asia. Watch: Although McInerney went on to reinforce the White House myth that Osama bin Laden was killed in 2011 at his compound in Pakistan, you can’t help but wonder why he was sent onto FOX at the very time that this latest “discovery” has happened. Bill Stills concluded his commentary by warning the this plane may likely end up being be used for some US-sponsored flase flag, or terrorist act in the future. Mainstream media is now being flooded with reports of “grieving families” which the public have only now been given access to, and western media talking points are focusing on victims’ families blaming the Malaysian government for its incompetence in conducting the search and that somehow ‘blood is now on the Malaysian governments’ hands’. 21WIRE detailed some suspicions regarding the passenger lists and talk of key Freescale (Austin, TX based) employees being on the plane, as well as the technical parameters regarding the planes transponder systems and radar detection. In the end, for the government anyway, the whole story has relied exclusively on technical and computer satellite specs in order to illustrate a timeline and possible locations for the missing flight. The blame game that has ensued following Malaysia’s ‘endorsement’ of the British location data (which is still a guess) and Malaysia is now accusing Inmarsat of ‘sitting on the information for 10 days’, which means that a convenient media side-show has now opened up to distract from actually finding the plane. Telegraph said it today: “The AAIB, working with Inmarsat, provided the only credible information on the Malaysia Airlines flight’s whereabouts, but a series of delays meant ten crucial days were lost before search teams began looking in the southern Indian Ocean, where it now seems certain the aircraft went down.” Regardless of what is being said and what theories are being kicked around, one can conclude, once again, that the official story of Malaysian Flight MH370 is a complete whitewash already. Isn’t it funny how the biggest plane hunt in human history – over in Asia, is swiftly closed down by a single British company and a British government aviation agency? Who is Inmarsat? Inmarsat Plc is a major player in government, military, aviation satellite markets, partners with the likes of Honeywell, and refers to itself as “the world’s leading provider of mobile satcoms” with its IsatPhone range, and covers a wide range of global contracts, most notably its satellite communications for “coalition military forces” deployed on missions in Iraq, Afghanistan and other locations, and has also been awarded a FEMA contract to continue providing Mobile Satellite Services (MSS) in the US. Reuters explains, “Under this contract, FEMA will use Inmarsat satellite services to provide reliable, mission-critical communications between supporting personnel in the event of a disaster. In emergency situations, it is essential that first responders are able to communicate immediately not only among themselves, but also with their leadership through respective command and operational centers.” According to a 2011 interview with London’s City AM: “Inmarsat offers mobile connectivity solutions for anything from a single yacht travelling the Pacific to the thousands of US troops stationed in Afghanistan. It is a FTSE 100 powerhouse, but one which rarely makes headlines… This is despite it providing a huge proportion of the connectivity during the recent clashes in the Middle East, allowing journalists, protesters and aid workers to spread news about the fall of generation-old governments and the brutal clashes in Libya.” In March 2012, Al-Jazeera Beirut correspondent Ali Hashim along with two others, resigned over objections over Qatar’s pro-US and UK foreign policy slanted reporting on the conflict, and revealed that Al-Jazeera spent $50,000 for smuggling phones and satellite communication tools to Syria’s rebels. Did Inmarsat provide the sat phones al Jazeera gave to Syrian ‘Rebels’, aiding foreign insurgents in Syria in coordinating terrorist attacks inside that country? Good question. Only a few firms would be positioned to deliver that service, and Inmarsat, according to their own admission anyway, would be at the top of the list. In Sept 2013, Inmarsat announced further inroads into the aviation industry, providing “GSM and Internet services to airlines and their passengers”. Reuters reported, “Thales SA announced that it has signed a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) that would include the Company as a partner in marketing Inmarsat PLC’s connectivity solutions to the commercial aviation market. Under the MOA, SwiftBroadband and GX Aviation are the primary and preferred satellite services for Thales SA’s TopSeries IFEC system…. Financial terms were not disclosed.” In June 2013, Inmarsat bid alongside the Carlyle Group LP and the Blackstone Group LP for control over Singapore Telecommunications Ltd’s Australian satellite unit. Reuters reported, “SingTel, Southeast Asia’s telecom operator, values the satellite business of its Australian unit Optus at more than AUD2 billion ($1.9 billion), and has put it on sale as it battles tepid growth in its key markets of Singapore and Australia. Inmarsat PLC, Blackstone Group LP and Carlyle Group LP are among the other suitors to submit bids ahead of the deadline. Blackstone, Carlyle, KKR, Intelsat, SES and SingTel declined comment.” It also has business agreements with Malaysian shipping conglomerate MISC Berhad (MISC), signing its first big deal covering 46 of its vessels, “comprised of chemical and LNG tankers, for Inmarsat’s XpressLink service”. Officially, Boeing 777 Malaysian Airlines Flight MH370 is still missing…
