California Is Trying To Drive Landlords Out of Business

California Is Trying To Drive Landlords Out of BusinessWhat do the state’s insurance and housing crises have in common? Obviously, homeowner policies have an impact on housing costs, but I’m referring to something different, namely the concept of open-ended risk. Insurers are exiting the market because state policies limit their ability to price policies to reflect the risk of a major wildfire season. They rather pull out of California than risk the destruction of their assets. I’d argue the same thing is happening in the rental market, thanks to a fusillade of pro-tenant laws that subject landlords to an incalculable level of risk. Landlords have freely entered the business and understand the various ups and downs. They can calculate the costs of mortgages, taxes, insurance, and maintenance. They expect to, say, replace carpets and paint between tenants. They know the cost of the eviction process in those instances where it’s necessary. But…

Jesse Ventura Takes Control of CNN Segment: ‘Let’s Move on to Why I’m Really Here, Erin – Ca...

Jesse Ventura Takes Control of CNN Segment: ‘Let’s Move on to Why I’m Really Here, Erin – Ca…CNN’s Erin Burnett discussed politics with former third-party Minnesota Gov. Jesse Ventura on Thursday before the former professional wrestler took control of the interview, saying, “But let’s move on to why I’m really here, Erin – cannabis.” “All right…and I was about to jump in and force you there, but you were going on!” Burnett said, continuing: BURNETT: I know you’re passionate about cannabis. It is how you spend your time. Can I ask you about this? ‘Cause you have put a lot of time into the effectiveness of medical marijuana, and I know the reason you’ve done this is ’cause you say it saved your family’s life. It stopped your wife’s seizures. So you’ve dedicated yourself to this. Biden has moved to decriminalize it, finally. It wasn’t initial thought, but he has…

Beauty in Bluff Country: A Southern Minnesota Motorcycle Ride

Beauty in Bluff Country: A Southern Minnesota Motorcycle RideThis Southern Minnesota motorcycle ride included an early morning stop at Church Hill Overlook on the Root River with a great view of the Lanesboro Stone Dam, constructed in 1868 with unmortared limestone blocks. (Photos by the author and Chad Cochran.) Motorcyclists living in Minnesota experience long winters with plenty of time to think about roads we want to ride. It’s a sweet feeling when spring arrives and the bikes come out of hibernation. My son, Chad, feels the same way. We kicked off the riding season with an overnight Minnesota motorcycle ride down the Great River Road (U.S. Route 61) on the western bank of the Mississippi River, through what is often referred to as Bluff Country. The area’s complex hilly terrain has been carved out over eons by the Mississippi and other waterways large and small. Scan QR code above…

Windows Mail’s default app is changing. Here’s how.

Windows Mail’s default app is changing. Here’s how.If you are a user, what are your options? By Gary Guthrie of ConsumerAffairs April 17, 2024 If youre a Windows user or buying a new Windows-driven computer, you might be surprised to know that what youve come to know and love with Windows Mail is changing. With the rollout of Windows 11, Outlook for Windows is replacing the default Mail, Calendar, and People apps. Techsperts maintain that the Mail app you have been using was never the email juggernaut that people who spend a lot of time using email needed. It had its share of issues, and you didnt get powerful email templating or filters, but those arent features your typical email user typically needs, MakeUseOfs Kris Wouk said. What you should do You could certainly roll the dice and hope that nothing goes wrong, but thats probably a dangerous move. Microsoft…

A Firm Bought Up Land in a Tiny Arizona Town—Then Sold Its Water to a Faraway Suburb

A Firm Bought Up Land in a Tiny Arizona Town—Then Sold Its Water to a Faraway SuburbThis story was originally published by the Guardian and is reproduced here as part of the Climate Desk collaboration. One of the biggest battles over Colorado River water is being staged in one of the west’s smallest rural enclaves. Tucked into the bends of the lower Colorado River, Cibola, Arizona, is a community of about 200 people. Maybe 300, if you count the weekenders who come to boat and hunt. Dusty shrublands run into sleepy residential streets, which run into neat fields of cotton and alfalfa. Nearly a decade ago, Greenstone Resource Partners LLC, a private company backed by global investors, bought almost 500 acres of agricultural land here in Cibola. In a first-of-its-kind deal, the company recently sold the water rights tied to the land to the town of Queen Creek, a suburb of Phoenix, for a…
