    “Facebook got a lot of pressure about not having a trending topic for Black Lives Matter.”

    Managers on the trending news team did, however, explicitly instruct curators to artificially manipulate the trending module in a different way: When users weren’t reading stories that management viewed as important, several former workers said, curators were told to put them in the trending news feed anyway.”

At the same time, he intends to reduce subsidies for those who choose to stay in housing in poor urban areas, such as Brooklyn. So Section 8 tenants won’t just be pulled to the suburbs, they’ll be pushed there.”

    From Tim Blair:
    ART IMITATES DEATH

    Monday:

    Police have apologised for making a fake Islamist suicide bomber use a “religious phrase” during a counter-terror exercise in Manchester …

    A man playing the part of a terrorist repeatedly shouted “Allahu Akbar” (“God is great”) before acting out the explosion.

    Community groups and activists condemned the use of “stereotypes” for the exercise, with some raising concerns it would fuel anti-Muslim prejudice.

    Tuesday:

    One person has been killed and several injured in a knife attack by a suspected Islamist at a railway station near Munich.

    The suspect reportedly shouted “Allahu Akbar” (“God is great”) as he started stabbing passers-by in the town of Grafing, to the south-east of the German city.

    Community groups and activists have not complained, for some reason.’

    • Ronbo says:

      I wish the Russians would release the missing 28 page section of the Congressional 9/11 report that details the help the Saudi government gave the 19 terrorists responsible for 9/11 – of whom 15 just happen to be Saudi citizens – as was Bin Laden.

      This was known to George Bush and his Administration who chose the cover up route and invaded the wrong fucking country in 2003, which resulted in massive property and deaths of American Service men & women – and the deaths of as many as 250,000 Iraqi citizens.

      What was Bush’s reaction? He immediately ordered all Saudis remotely involved in the 9/11 plot to be given safe passage out of America.

      This was treason, murder and destruction in a Middle East country by the U.S. military on orders of GWB, who needs to be arrested and tried.

      Thanks, Gregory. And I read just this morning how Aucklanders are “turning their backs” on the traditional NZ homes “in favour of” high rise apartments.
      Of course, they’re actually being driven out of the traditional home market by imported Chinese money, so-called “investment”.
      But it would never do for the media to mention that inconvenient fact, would it?
      Bastards.
      The government has also just released some figures on the number of foreign buyers, and those figures are very suspect indeed. I’ll see if I can find the link.

    • mawm says:

      I’m convinced that most of the increased value is a reflection of the decreased buying power of our dollar (inflation) and the high cost of labour, i.e. the replacement cost of rebuilding the house. Sure land prices in sought after areas are high as there is a limited amount, but the unspoken truth is that inflation is far higher than the massaged figures released by our government and all of the rest of the gang of thieves (the G8/OECD/whatever), and the hysteria about the youth being unable to buy homes is nothing more than that and it was always so.

      From Zero hedge on inflation..

      For years the Fed has been lying about inflation.
      There are many methods of doing this, but the simplest was to use a “measure” of inflation that did not actually measure inflation at all.

      • KG says:

        I don’t doubt the truth of what you say, Mawm but there’s also no doubt that overseas buyers have pushed up the price of Auckland houses to unrealistic levels.
        I don’t believe the stories about young couples being unable to afford homes are “hysteria”. Exaggerated? maybe. They tend to want it all, all at once.
        It’d be interesting to look at the price vs earnings today compared with – say – the mid-seventies.
        (I’m no economist, but the government’s inflation figures are obviously nonsense)

        • mawm says:

          The hysteria is promulgated by the Bernard Hickey’s, etc. and yes the youth want it all at once and close to where they work. As for foreign buyers; they have always been there and the vendors certainly are not saying no to the offers no matter who makes it, as is what happened in the 80’s with the Asian invasion and the subdivision scramble that left Auckland such a mess. It is what NZ does.

          • Darin says:

            Looking at some of the real estate offerings in NZ I see a hyper-inflated market similar to what we have here.An ordinary house with a couple acres is listed for $500,000 where just a few years ago it would be a hard sell at $100,000.That kind of market usually doesn’t end well as demonstrated here in 07′-08′ http://falfn.com/CrusaderRabbit/wp-content/plugins/wp-monalisa/icons/wpml_scratch.gif

    Let’s talk timing chains and BMW. Last month three Hughes Limousines 7 Series BMWs were off the road with timing-chain issues. The three cars were repaired by BMW dealers. Within a week one engine had blown up. A month later another had blown up. The service people told the third driver they had learned something by then. Replacing the oil pump meant the third engine didn’t blow up. That’s good: replacing the engines cost $34,000 each. BMW agreed to pay half. Hughes didn’t argue much since the cost was going to be borne by the two drivers who rented the BMW 7 Series from Hughes.
    Even by BMW dealers’ standards, there’s something very odd about this. Several things, in fact.

    • Darin says:

      It’s the oil pumps failing that causes the timing chains to fail shortly there after.BMW use oil pressure fed lash adjusters on the chains that are supposed to lash the chains out on the slack side.These adjusters are fitted with a piston that sees oil pressure and a spring loaded ratchet pawl that latches incrementally as the piston moves out so it’s a one way deal.

      No way of knowing why the pumps are failing,that could be anything from poor metallurgy(German steel is highly overrated) to the owners not using the factory recommended oil.

      Using the correct oil in a vehicle nowadays is a huge issue,it’s no longer like times past where any 30wt or multi-visc was fine.Many manufacturers now specify specific oil formulations and additive packages.My father had a Mercury Grand Marquis with the DOHC 4.6L (a fine engine btw) it specifically required a Motorcraft Oil spec,other wise it used oil and got poor mileage.

      • KG says:

        Thanks for that, Darin. Interesting stuff.
        Our old Benz gets pretty much whatever oil is handy for (very infrequent) top-ups.
        A complete oil/filter change is a different story though, and I prefer to use a decent brand for that.
