Death of the 'McMansion': Era of Huge Homes Is Over - CNBC

Probably a de-weaponized practice dummy, but who knows?

Why the Ann Arbor Chronicle doesn't endorse candidates - Ann Arbor Chronicle (Mary Morgan)
Not hard to understand. Morgan seems to be saying that the Chronicle would lose readership and ad revenue (because Ann Arborites are so partisan, spiteful and intolerant) and that they don't matter a tinker's damn anyhow. Morgan is right; they don't.
