I have several homes in "low income" areas of my city. I have purposely planted many fruit trees on them. Peaches, cherries, plums, apples, etc. My idea was that I needed trees anyway and my families would benefit from free fresh fruit for their children.

One rental property had this wonderful 10 year old peach tree on it. The city came in and cut it down! Without notice! They are complaining that I planted it in the city zone of my yard, near the city planted tree. That is true, I was thinking of the shade it would provide later (like NOW).

I am really upset, but do not know who to complain to. I know I cna't get the tree back. But, there is so much about affordable housing that I am really frustrated. I am trying to provide affordable housing in homes for families that provide for their needs. Fenced in front yards, trees and bushes (I even have citrus hedges in some) make my houses more "homey" then most. IMO anyway.

Low pressure = bad weather; high pressure = good weather...WHY??

How come low pressure systems bring in bad weather? is it because it sucks up the air high enough that it will cool and condense into clouds???? AND what about high pressure systems..why do they bring fair weather.

It seems like couples who say they are "separated but working on" their marriages never get back together..?

Can taking a break in your marriage ever end up back in "happily ever after"?

I have an 86 Chevy Citation. I've been told the CV joint is "going" and it does make a thumping noise. Help.

It drives fine otherwise; actually, it's really zippy and fun! So I wouldn't mind (too much) putting a few hundred dollars into it, if that is about what replacing the CV joint will run.

Atheists : Do you know what is your biggest mistake?

that you're not ignorants about the Word of God.

i enjoy when Atheists quote the bible! it tells me that they study the bible! and that's a good thing.

Because when you stand before God, he will Judge all of you according to his Word!

you will not have any excuses like:

"I did not know", or "nobody told meanything" etc..

so Keep the good work ;)

What kind of computer mouse is the best to get?

You know, like:
*The kind w/ a wire.
*The kind that uses a laser not a wire.
(I'm sure there are more types but those are the only ones that I know about. Your answer does not have to be one of these it can be some other kind of mouse for a regular computer not a laptop, oh, not a flat screen either).

What are the pro's (good things about it) & con's (bad things) about that mouse?

Fish gurus ONLY please...?

Ok guys, I want to kill two birds with one stone... Some of you may remember my question from the other day, and we came to the conlusion that my tank is still building its biological filter... (its only 2 weeks old, and i lost a fish in my 38 gallon tank.) I took a sample to the pet store and they told me my water was between stressful and harmful with the levels of ammonia. My nitrites and nitrates were fine. I have scheduled another water change for Thurs. since my last... only 15%. So, my first question is should i let nature take its course and keep building the filter to break down ammonia, or should i use Ammo Lock, which detoxifies it.. or a similar tablet called Ammonia Buddy? And if I'm to use no chemical, will it be "survival of the fittest" for my fish? I figure if I get enough of the same answer, then I'll know the solution. Also, I have a Violet Goby, will these chemicals affect it?
I will be adding 1 more question in my "Additional details." PLEASE WAIT TO POST!

How many miles per gallon would I get if I had a 75 HP four-stroke boat motor hooked onto a 17' boston whaler?

Also how many MPG do party boats get? The ones that could carry 50 fisherman. I know that the wind and travel speed play a factor, so let's say normal wind and traveling speed.
