Conversation about: More women entering construction

"Today, women are majoring in construction administration, engineering and architecture in college so they can qualify for these and other high-paying construction-related jobs. It wasn't long ago that women weren't even accepted in such schools, said Lenore Janis, president of Professional Women in Construction..." BS - I'd like her to back that statement up - Give ANY examples where a woman was denied entry into a school because of her gender - give me a break.

Conversation about: Should city charge at-fault drivers?

“We’re at bare bones right now” You're joking right? You public leaches are bleeding tax payers dry with your $100-300K salaries and golden parchutes at 50 - This country has gone insane. "City Councilman Ray Tretheway indicated he may vote in favor of the ordinance later this month..." NO KIDDING? Tretheway hasn't seen a fee or tax he didn't love. Y'all shall reap what you sow

Conversation about: Iceland Celebrates 70th Birthday

I know of buildings, some built in the 1970's, that carry insurance, so age of the building is not an issue. There is no such thing as an occupied business, which is presumably safe, not being eligible for insurance; the issue is how much is the business willing to pay - or are they willing to assume all the risk. I suspect that there could have been other reasons for some insurances carriers to reject the policy, such as not having fire sprinkers or a working fire alarm system - not the age of the building per se. I will place a bet that the Kerths will try to get the taxpayers to pay for the reconstruction through the Redevelopment Agency.

Actually Mr. Burg, as a long time contractor/developer and a former building inspector - I strongly support governments role in ensuring that buidlings are built safely.
