The problem is that 'immigrant', along with 'refugee', is becoming a derogatory term, even in the playground it's become an insult. As with anything it's all about context, but I suspect the poster who used that term knew exactly what they were writing...
  3. Tree roots can seriously undermine the strength of clay soils, the clay becomes 'desiccated' and unstable, hence the need to pile down to deep depths where the soil conditions are stable. I'm not sure cutting a tree down before helps as the damage has already been done, but a structural engineer would confirm. I'm surprised that an 'all-in-one' company wouldn't be able to overcome such a discovery, as all it needs is a specialist sub-contractor to do the piling work. The traditional route of using an architect and structural engineer before a builder is employed usually flushes out such potential problems...

I thought an agent can still claim against a vendor if they withdraw a property from the market, and then subsequently sell it to a buyer they originally introduced to the vendor...

A friend of mine is visiting his brother and family in California. They all voted Democrat but his brother said there's a general feeling in the country that Obama's presidency hasn't been a success*, that the general population is worse off and struggling to make ends meet, so in the end they voted for change rather than more of the same, which is all that Clinton offered. Which kinda reminds me of that line which I think one of Blll Clinton's aides came up with....It's the economy, stupid *It should be said that Obama has had his hands tied with a Republican majority in the Senate/Congress, so he was never going to totally deliver what he wanted to...
