POPS
I will never rent from Horizon Group Management in Chicago

 An apartment management company is suing a former tenant for saying on Twitter that the apartment had mold. "We're a sue first, ask questions later kind of an organization" said the management company's spokesperson. I'm sure prospective tenants would be glad to know that, so I'm all in favor of spreading this story widely. BTW, the former tenant in question had 20 Twitter followers when she tweeted; if the management company had not sued, 20 people would know about it. Now? Well, how many people read the Chicago Sun-Times ? Hah. :lol:

 I think the one who most needs the exercise is the one on four wheels rather than four feet. :mad:

The world's longest turban – but why do Nihang Sikhs wear large turbans?

 More on why Nihangs wear such large turbans: Another part is: During a point in a battle a detachment of Sikhs carrying the Nishan Sahib of the Khalsa was overrun and wiped out by the enemy. An army’s flag is sacred and a rallying image. When concern over the loss of the flag was reported to Guru Gobind Singh he tore off a piece of cloth and attached it to his own turban. He instructed them to do the same and so raised the flag upon the very heads of his brave Sikhs. To this day Nihang Singhs who's knowledge, words, and deeds exemplify the principals of a Khalsa warrior are acknowledged the right to wear this Farla on their Damala. According to the tradition today; it is not something that one just decides to wear one day because they want to. It is appropriate that five elder Singh's who do wear it may bestow this duty and order upon a Sikh who they deem appropriate and befitting.
