Junk Drawer -- August 16, 2008

As for me, I’ve Kobe play a lot and I’ve seen Jordan play for the Washington Wizards. I was not impressed. It’s a choice between the most unstoppable player in the NBA and a washed up old guy who sells underwear for a living. I think the choice is simple.

That I was lookin,

….Italy’s dream of zero population growth is doooomed

We need vet at any cost.

Makes the Blazers do that trade, to make up for KP taking advantage of the other GMs?

If someone doesn’t get offended by it

There should be a book called something like “Landlord-Tenant Laws for Oregon”.

Or here is a link to the ORS.
Here are the pertinent rule numbers : Entry of premises, 90.322, 90.410, 90.725

Some parts from 90.322:

"(d) A landlord and tenant may agree that the landlord or the landlord’s agent may enter the dwelling unit and the premises without notice at reasonable times for the purpose of showing the premises to a prospective buyer, provided that the agreement:
     
      (A) Is executed at a time when the landlord is actively engaged in attempts to sell the premises;

      (B) Is reflected in a writing separate from the rental agreement and signed by both parties; and

      © Is supported by separate consideration recited in the agreement."

(ii) A tenant may deny consent for a landlord or landlord’s agent to enter upon the premises pursuant to this paragraph if the entry is at an unreasonable time or with unreasonable frequency. The tenant must assert the denial by giving actual notice of the denial to the landlord or landlord’s agent prior to, or at the time of, the attempted entry.

      (B) As used in this paragraph:

      (i) "Yard maintenance or grounds keeping" includes, but is not limited to, weeding, mowing grass and pruning trees and shrubs.

      (ii) "Unreasonable time" refers to a time of day, day of the week or particular time that conflicts with the tenant’s reasonable and specific plans to use the premises.

      (f) In all other cases, unless there is an agreement between the landlord and the tenant to the contrary regarding a specific entry, the landlord shall give the tenant at least 24 hours’ actual notice of the intent of the landlord to enter and the landlord or landlord’s agent may enter only at reasonable times. The landlord or landlord’s agent may not enter if the tenant, after receiving the landlord’s notice, denies consent to enter. The tenant must assert this denial of consent by giving actual notice of the denial to the landlord or the landlord’s agent or by attaching a written notice of the denial in a secure manner to the main entrance to that portion of the premises or dwelling unit of which the tenant has exclusive control, prior to or at the time of the attempt by the landlord or landlord’s agent to enter.

      (2) A landlord may not abuse the right of access or use it to harass the tenant. A tenant may not unreasonably withhold consent from the landlord to enter.
