Imam at center of Islamic center controversy named in lawsuit
CNN ^ | Sept. 14, 2010 | Laura Batchelor

The imam at the center of the controversy surrounding a proposed Islamic center near ground zero is now the defendant in a law suit, according the paperwork filed today at Hudson County Superior Court.

The lawsuit alleges Feisal Abdul Rauf's company, Sage Development, which owns two buildings in Union City, New Jersey, failed to properly maintain the buildings and apartments. One building contains 32 residential units and the second contains 16 units, according to the lawsuit.

"From 1996 to 2010, the city responded to no less than 30 complaints from tenants predicated upon various health and safety concerns, including lack of heat, mold inside apartments, garbage issues, bed bugs, foul odors, dirty hallways and the lack of utilities/heat," the filing says.

The larger of the two buildings has been vacant since a fire damaged the property on February 8, 2008. According to the lawsuit, Union City Fire Officials issued 12 fire code violations over one year prior to the fire. In the second apartment building, more than two units were found to be ingested with bed bugs after complaints of improperly stored garbage.

A mosque near Ground Zero? We’ll THINK about it. BUT FIRST…

“Star Trek Lost Episodes” transcript

[Picard] “Mr. LaForge, have you had any success with your attempts at
finding a weakness in the Borg? And Mr. Data, have you been able to
access their command pathways?”

[Geordi]”Yes, Captain. In fact, we found the answer by searching
through our archives on late Twentieth-century computing technology.”

[Geordi presses a key, and a logo appears on the computer screen.]

[Riker looks puzzled.] “What the hell is ‘Microsoft’?”

[Data turns to answer.] “Allow me to explain. We will send this
program, for some reason called ‘Windows’, through the Borg command
pathways. Once inside their root command unit, it will begin consuming
system resources at an unstoppable rate.”

[Picard] “But the Borg have the ability to adapt. Won’t they alter
their processing systems to increase their storage capacity?”

[Data] “Yes, Captain. But when ‘Windows’ detects this, it creates a new
version of itself known as an ‘upgrade’. The use of resources increases
exponentially with each iteration. The Borg will not be able to adapt
quickly enough. Eventually all of their processing ability will be
taken over and none will be available for their normal operational
functions.”

[Picard] “Excellent work. This is even better than that ‘unsolvable
geometric shape’ idea.”

. . 15 Minutes Later . . .

[Data] “Captain, We have successfully installed the ‘Windows’ in the
command unit and as expected it immediately consumed 85% of all
resources. We however have not received any confirmation of the
expected ‘upgrade’.”

[Geordi] “Our scanners have picked up an increase in Borg storage and
CPU capacity to compensate, but we still have no indication of an
‘upgrade’ to compensate for their increase.”

[Picard] “Data, scan the history banks again and determine if their is
something we have missed.”

[Data] “Sir, I believe there is a reason for the failure in the
upgrade’. Appearently the Borg have circumvented that part of the plan
by not sending in their registration cards.

[Riker] “Captain we have no choice. Requesting permission to begin
emergency escape sequence 3F . . .”

[Geordi, excited] “Wait, Captain I just detected their CPU capacity has
suddenly dropped to 0% !”

[Picard] “Data, what does your scanners show?”

[Data] “Appearently the Borg have found the internal ‘Windows’ module
named ‘Solitaire’ and it has used up all the CPU capacity.”

[Picard] “Lets wait and see how long this ‘solitaire’ can reduce their
functionality.”

. . Two Hours Pass . . .

[Riker] “Geordi whats the status on the Borg?”

[Geordi] “As expected the Borg are attempting to re-engineer to
compensate for increased CPU and storage demands, but each time they
successfully increase resources I have setup our closest deep space
monitor beacon to transmit more ‘windows’ modules from something called
the ‘Microsoft fun-pack’.

[Picard] “How much time will that buy us ?”

[Data] “Current Borg solution rates allow me to predicate an interest
time span of 6 more hours.”

[Geordi] “Captain, another vessel has entered our sector.”

[Picard] “Identify.”

[Data] “It appears to have markings very similar to the ‘Microsoft’
logo”

[Over the speakers] “THIS IS ADMIRAL BILL GATES OF THE MICROSOFT
FLAGSHIP MONOPOLY. WE HAVE POSITIVE CONFIRMATION OF UNREGISTERED
SOFTWARE IN THIS SECTOR. SURREDER ALL ASSETS AND WE CAN AVOID ANY
TROUBLE. YOU HAVE 10 SECONDS”

[Data] “The alien ship has just opened its forward hatches and released
thousands of humanoid shaped objects.”

[Picard] “Magnify forward viewer on the alien craft”

[Riker] “Good God captain! Those are humans floating straight toward
the Borg ship with no life support suits! How can they survive the
tortures of deep space ?!”

[Data] “I don’t believe that those are humans sir, if you will look
closer I believe you will see that they are carrying something
recognized by twenty-first century man as doe skin leather briefcases,
and wearing Armani suits”

[Riker and Picard together horrified] “Lawyers !!”

[Geordi] “It can’t be. All the Lawyers were rounded up and sent
hurtling into the sun in 2017 during the Great Awakening.”

[Data] “True, but appearently some must have survived.”

[Riker] “They have surrounded the Borg ship and are covering it with
all types of papers.”

[Data] “I believe that is known in ancient venacular as ‘red tape’ it
often proves fatal.”

[Riker] “They’re tearing the Borg to pieces !”

[Picard] “Turn off the monitors. I can’t stand to watch, not even the
Borg deserve that.”

Ingested...infested... probably both. Yuck.

But you know, these conditions just remind the muslims of their sh*th*le 3rd world origins.

Ah, the joys of living at Moose Limb Manor. Check out the crazy deals this month on our “Infidel Suites”! The prices will blow you away! They all come with free vermin infestations (two, six and eight legged varieties)!

I am reveling in this unraveling of the dim-witted, sly and oleaginous imam Ralph who so stupidly waded into this mess with the nervous, salt-fearing, hypocondriacal dwarfish mayor behind him. This is not looking good for Bloomberg’s presidential ambitions.

As I have been posting, this is a con, a scam. This guy wants something for nothing. His nonprofit was basically broke in 2008. It had no income. recently, he has had to have the US State Department pay his way around the world. Why is that? If he has so much money.

The answer is that this guy is one massive bluff. He is the counterpart to Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton and Abe Foxman.

The mosque will never be built. Not because the local unions won't do the work or people protest. This boy does not have the money. He never did. And who will bail him out? Soros? Ha! The Saudi's? I don't think so. Not with a 501 at the helm. It is too open. This guy is TOXIC and becoming more so every day.

Taqiyya and kitman, that's all this has been!

Do you remember an episode in the first series where there was a "Commodore something or other" that always told Kirk that the bad guys could be talked to, and then later in the episode, the Commodore gets held hostage and the bad guys are going to kill him and Kirk works his magic and prevails?

The Commodore learns you can't appease. IT'S THE PERFECT SCENARIO FOR TODAY, and I keep thinking about it, but can't remember much more than that about the episode.

Found it...Episode 41 - The Deadly Years:

In the meantime, several Romulan ships detect the Enterprise's intrusion and immediately attack, quickly surrounding the Enterprise. Commodore Stocker tries to contact the Romulans and explain his reason for trespassing in the Neutral Zone, but they ignore him. Stocker, because of his non-experience with commanding a starship, is paralyzed with indecision and even considers surrendering, but is reminded that Romulans take no prisoners.
