Everyone outside of Detroit thinks of Detroit as the town where they rioted after the 84 World Series and the whole Devils Night fire thing. But whenever someone makes a reference or a joke - Detroit natives get upset. Yet ever year there's yet another incident of overzealous fans getting too involved and committing crimes because of their "passion"

Think of the fans that circled the Lakers' hotel during the 2004 Finals blowing horns until cops chased them away. Then there was the fans coming onto the court during the brawl. Most recently was the classless booing of Joey Harrington during the Thanksgiving game against the Lions - instigated by the Stadium crew.

I think the only reason there was no riot after the 2004 finals was because of the media storm that brewed after Jimmy Kimmel made that riot joke.

So what gives? Isn't this like Eagles fans complaining if someone says they boo injuries to opposing players?

My friend is migrating to Australia from uae. Can I have the website that gives the names of companies in Melbourne/sydney? Also, my friend plans to land in Australia for migration and stay for a few days and stamp his passport and back to uae for a year. I wonder whether he can apply for a job from uae after he returns to uae? Is it valid? (no jokes please)

I am planning a short trip to Chicago for a couple days between Christmas and New Years. Would like to be in a hotel that has easy access so we can walk to things instead of trying to drive. Any advice on a nice hotel to stay at that isnt extremely expensive? Also...What would be the 3 things you would most recommend to do while we are there (in the dead of winter!)
Thanks

I have a question about small commercial aircraft. While flying on Delta airlines hopper jet CRJ-700 they told me I had to open my window shade while taking off and landing, in fact after asking a couple of travelers they told me the same thing, on small jets they make you open the window shade. I was wondering if anyone knew the answer to why they do that?

I was considering studying abroad there for a semester and had a few questions:
Will it be a significant problem if I can't speak any Dutch (only English)?
How far is it from Amsterdam?
Does it have "coffee shops" like in Amsterdam?
Are the people friendly?
How hard/expensive/time intensive would it be to take a trip to Berlin on a weekend?
Finally (and most importantly) what football club is a resident of Leiden likely to support/what clubs are in the vicinity?

Any other comments about general life in Leiden would be much appreciated. Thanks so much.

Has anyone heard of this? You swap houses with another family and each take a vacation at the other's place? I'd be as leery of this as the next guy, but the concept intrigues me. Does anyone know where I can get information about it?
