12/28   Looking for a religiousness density map based on county. Is there

           \_ Public Law 94-521 prohibits us from asking a question on religious
              affiliation on a mandatory basis; therefore, the Bureau of the Census
              is not the source for information on religion.

8/21    I'm trying to negotiate rent renewal and my manager came
        back saying she can't do that due to Fair Housing Laws
        that states that if they adjust price for one person
        they need to adjust price for everyone else. Is this
        an actual law or some bullshit she just made up?
        \_ Probably bullshit.

Get this news on your site for free Muslims offer to guard Christian churches in Indonesia -11/12/05 Indonesia's largest Islamic organisation will provide volunteers to help guard churches across the world's most populous Muslim nation, according to a report from the Reuters agency The move comes amid fresh fears of attacks on Christian buildings over th e seasonal period and moves by the authorities to stamp out religious vi olence. Jakarta police had already said they would boost security in the capital ahead of Christmas to avoid a repeat of 2000 Christmas Eve bombings on c hurches in several Indonesian cities. A youth wing affiliated with Indonesia's largest Muslim group Nahdlatul U lama, some 40 million strong, said that members would guard churches for the coming Christmas festivities and it had persuaded youths from other religions to join the project. "We have an annual programme to set up posts to secure Christmas. For thi s year, I have contacted groups from other religions like the Hindus and Buddhists and they have responded positively," said Tatang Hidayat, Nat ional Coordinator of NU's Banser group, known for its military-like unif orm. Hidayat said the volunteers would closely collaborate with existing polic e operations and the churches' own security. Around 17,000 policemen are expected to safeguard Christmas celebrations in Jakarta alone. The spate of bombings in 2000 killed at least 19 people, including a Bans er member guarding a church in East Java. The attacks along with other blasts in recent years -- most recently on t he tourist island of Bali in October when suicide bombers killed 20 peop le -- have been blamed on Jemaah Islamiah, a militant network intelligen ce experts call a Southeast Asian wing of al-Qaeda. Around 85 per cent of Indonesia's 220 million people are Muslim. Christia ns form the second largest religious group in the country as a whole, as well as in Jakarta. Although Indonesia has been relatively calm in recent weeks, many securit y analysts say threats of militant attacks still run high because police have yet to catch one of the alleged masterminds of previous bombings, Malaysian-born Noordin M Top. Police last month killed Azahari Husin, another alleged Jemaah Islamiah l eader, in a shootout in East Java province.
