How exactly can I check those if Linux wont run at all? And I do not know about the errors, or where they might reside.

So if you boot up w/the Live distro and it doesn't lock up, then you can access the hard drive where Ubuntu is installed and check out the log file. I mentioned the location above: /var/log/syslog
You mentioned you tried several distros. Do they all lock up the same way? Have you tried booting in text mode or advanced mode in any of them?
And I do not know about the errors, or where they might reside.

I have always been a huge Muppet fan and during the 70's I went out of my way to make sure I caught the Muppet Show. I even have an original Fozzie and Gonzo coffee mug. Each week they brought on a new headliner, and put them in very silly skits into which they threw their heart and soul. Anybody who was anybody appeared on this show over the next five seasons.
The names of the headliners are a little faded now, but in todays terms it would be like having Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Emma Stone, Andrew Garfield, Channing Tatum, Jennifer Lawrence, Tom Cruise, Robert Downey Jr. and Chris Hemsworth as your fall line up — on a televison show — with puppets! It ran from 1976-81 and won many, many awards.
Although cancelled from syndication there were almost two dozen television specials plus theatrical releases in 1979, 1981, 1984, 1992, 1996, and 1999. This was followed by a serious dry spell until funny man Jason Segel, himself raised on the Muppets, decided to ressurect lovable Kermit and company. He wrote a tremendous script and introduced a whole new generation to the charming insanity that is the Muppets. For all things Muppet at the Library click here.
The newest offering is Muppets Most Wanted, and I have to say it has lost none of its charm over the years. Of course it helps that the characters don't age and you can just pop in your A-listers de jour, but the writing itself remains faithful to the original themes and gags we love—like Gonzo and his chickens, ways to explode Beaker and Miss Piggie's unwavering love for her Kermie.
On Thursday September 18th for our regular film night at Crowfoot we will be showing this absolutely delightful movie in the open area in the Kids Zone. No registration required, the movie runs 107 minutes and is rated Family.
Wes Anderson is one talented guy. In fact no less an icon than Martin Scorsese chooses him as his favourite director, and when pressed in an Esquire magazine article Marty says he may be the next Martin Scorsese. High praise indeed.
He started in his childhood writing plays and making Super-8 movies. While attending the University of Texas, where he majored in philosophy, he met Owen Wilson. They became friends and began making short films together. One of their shorts was Bottle Rocket (1994), which starred Owen and his brother Luke. The short was screened at the Sundance Film Festival, where it was successfully received and from this he got funding to make a feature length version.
He frequently casts the same actors while also being able to draw upon the talents of many A listers. Like Woody Allen, it is becoming a feather in your cap to be chosen to appear in one of his films.
His most recent offering is the delightful The Grand Budapest Hotel. Starring among others, Ralph Fiennes, Adrien Brody, Edward Norton, Saorise Ronan, and Jude Law, there are many more fine actors in it and half the fun of watching his films is spotting performers who are often on only for a very brief period. This movie is quirky, charming and original and is Fiennes' best role in years.
Among some of his others — and he takes his time in between films so they don't come out as fast as his fans might wish — are The Royal Tenenbaums, Moonrise Kingdom, Rushmore, The Fantastic Mr. Fox and The Darjeeling Limited. If you don't want to commit to a full retrospective of his films, treat yourself to Grand Budapest. It may be enough to hook you, and if it doesn't I don't think you'll regret the two hours spent.
The surprisingly lovable misanthrope Doc Martin is back for Season 6 in this very popular Britcom of the same name. If you are not yet acquainted with the surly London surgeon forced to relocate to a Cornish fishing village give the early seasons a look, but do watch them in order.
If you are already a fan check out and see who could possibly be left for him to offend this time round. Like the jacket says it is sweet, stirring and completely addictive. It is also hilarious.
There's no doubt that we here at Movie Maniacs can lean towards grittier fare—our murder mysteries, psychological thrillers, monsters, mutants and miscreants.
A co-worker made a great suggestion—how about some gentle viewing for people who want to avoid the language, the violence, the sex and the mayhem and just want a really good movie to watch. One usually thinks of the Classics for such fare, but there really is a lot from which to choose. Here are a few to start you off:Pride and Prejudice
Period Pieces: Versatile Emma Thompson is a good bet in any of these three: The Remains of the Day, Sense and Sensibility and Howard's End.
You can't go wrong with Pride and Prejudice. We have three from which to choose- the tremendous mini series with Colin Firth , before North American audiences really knew who he was; the excellent classic with Sir Laurence Olivier and Greer Garson- an absolute charmer; and the 2005 release with Keira Knightley. Why not watch all three and compare?
Rear WindowClassic Hitchcock: Murder, but not bloody or violent, just Hitchcock at his suspenseful best. Rear Window, Dial M for Murder and Witness for the Prosecution.
Bogart and Adventure: African Queen, Treasure of the Sierra Madre, Casablanca, Caine Mutiny
Capers: The Sting
All of the movies are either Oscar winners or nominees and well worth your two hours; Colin Firth and company cleaned up on the Emmies that year. With the single exception of Keira K's P&P, I rate everyone of these in my top 50. Thanks for the suggestion Dawn!

6. The MAFF report noted the similarity of target organ effects and biochemical changes with these substances, principally liver and peroxisomal proliferation, and the requirement for additional data in support of continued use of several compounds. 7. It is not established whether cigarette applications could contribute to human intake. At a total of 4 mg adhesive per cigarette from filter elements, a level of 10% of DDP in adhesive would provide 0.4 mg per cigarette. There is some possibility that a fraction of this might migrate on storage to the tobacco rod and hence provide a source for transfer to smoke. 8. It is increasingly desirable that we can claim conformity to key legislation in several markets, and the West German regulations are the most important element. 9. In view of some of the uncertainties attached to long term use of phthalates, it would be prudent to avoid or reduce their presence on the product wherever possible. 10. Subject to this proposal being agreed, the main adhesive suppliers will be advised of the intention and asked for help in achieving it. 11. Other sources of phthalates may need to be considered in the future e.g. inks and wrapping materials. / BATCo document for Legal Services • Health Canada 21 October 1999

,, 4° °0 GS/JP/AGP i . 81.11 September 1989 ! = -- ! T * 13 WEEK INHALATION TOXICITY STUDY OF TOBACCO CONTAINING METHOPRENE A meeting was held at Microbiological Associates (MBA), Bethesda, on 24th August 1989 to discuss the draft report of the Kabat inhalation study. Present: Ray David Lucas Brenne:ke Bob Weir Graham Smith MBA - Study Director Pathology Associates Inc (PAl) ° - Study Pathologist Consultant - Zoecon BAT (UK&E) R&D • PAl - an independent organisalion responsible for the tissue Irom necropsy to full histopathology. The issues raised were those of BAT, Philip Morris, R.J. Reynolds, Brotherton & Associates (Consultants to Zoecon) and Zoecon Corporation. The majority of the comments were points of clarification or correction of minor errors. Copies are attached. The points raised were gone through on a company by company basis and the majority satisfactorily answered with no dilliculty. From the questions raised it is clear that, of the tobacco companies who made comments, BAT was alone in not accepting the study conclusions based on information presented in the draft report. Pldlip l~lorris I R.J. Reynolds Position Both Philip Morris and R.J. Reynolds were happy to accept the conclusions of the report. R JR - "We all agree with the conclusion of the study that rnethoprene in smoke has no independent etlects in rats'. PM - "My criticisms or] the draft report are minor in nature and ! do not feel there are any difficulties with the conclusion of this report'. ".... t feel confident that the quality of the data will go a long way in expanding methoprene's usefulness'. BAT Position Whilst the majority of comments by BAT may be regarded as minor, one or two issues raised were recognised as being of greater significance such that the conclusions of the report cannot be accepted until they are satisfactorily resolved. A list of the questions raised by BAT and the response by MBA is attached. C) c..3 L,,J Co BATCo document for Legal Services • Health Canada 21 October 1999

Conclusions (BAT) 1. From the i nformation provided by (a) Weekly monitoring reports (b) The draft report (cl Discussions with MBA I am confident that the study protocol was met in that all smoke-exposed animals were exposed to cigarette smoke at the same concentration for the same length of time. The absence of diluting air control early in the study produced only a minor variation which was the same for all groups. 2. From our own discussions, plus those with MBA and company consultants, the observed group differences in electrolyte ~evel and adrenal organ weight were not due to the addition of methoprene. 3. Independent evaluation of the adrenal sec~'ons confirms the view expressed in the draft report that there were no structural changes attributable to the addition of methoprene. A separate report is being prc--pared. 5. I have no reason to think that all the issues raised with MBA witl not be satisfactorily resolved, although a final view must wait urn1 the corrected pathology report has been completed. 4. The significance of the inaccuracy of the ~ryngeal sections must remain unknown until they have been re-evaluated. I have asked to see all respiratory tract sections including those that have to be re-cuL The final report is expected by the end of Septe.,nber. c~ C3) co C~ BATCo document for Legal Services • Health Canada 21 October 1999

POINTS RAISED BY BAT Page 11 In the table, the animal numbers do not cover 20 animals/sex. This will be corrected. Page 11 Is the laboratory happy that using only one smoking engine presented no problems in terms of methoprene residues? We assume not, but it should be stated. It was concluded that the laboratory could not make any supportable statement in answer to this quesEon. Page 13 (2nd para.) What is the acceptable range for a position 2 TPM? It should be defined. This will be defined. Page 17 Terminal sacrifice. It is not clear what smoking regime was followed on the last few days of the study. Were animals smoked on the Saturday if necropsy was on the Sunday? If so, would this influence the results? If they were not, again how would this influence the results? More detail is needed to define procedures. All autopsies were carried out on a Thursday or Friday, animals receiving either3 or4 days" full smoke prior to sacrifice. The terminal sacrifice procedure will be cladfiedo Page22 Blood CO and nicotine values on their own are of vaiue; however, it is desirable to compare measured levels against chamber CO and nicotine levels present prior to taking the blood sample, i.e. it would be useful to plot individual blood CO and nicotines against the individual chamber CO, nicotine values. This point will be covere(l; a preliminary graph indicated a good correlation between blood and chamber CO. Page 23 The variability in handling the blood samples resulted in differences in measured nicotine levels. Reassurance that the values are meaningful would be oi use. Are they sure that the nicotine "found" in the sham group is not due to smoke from the engines in the same room? Suitable 'reassurance' will be provided. The level found in the sham group is within the resolution of the technique used and will be described as such. J~ BATCo document for Legal Services " Health Canada 21 October 1999
Page 15: 02800509
Page 25 Page 26 Changes in electrolyte levels are described in terms of smoked v nonsmoked and also differences between smoke groups. A little more discussion in this area would be of value, bearing in mind organ weights of the adrenals, Could the two be linked, or is it due to, for example, alteration of kidney function? As the adrenals were considered a possible target organ before the study was carried out. consideration of the changes noted in relative organ weights would be of value. There is n~.,ed for an authoritative statement as to their significance. Any possible confusion relating to the significance of the adrenal weights and changes in the electrolyte levels will be resolved. Discussions with Ray David provided the reassurance that the observed changes were not treatment-related. A more authoritative statement on this part of the work is to be included in the final report. Page 27 In considering the histopathology, the pro-schedule deaths and scheduled deaths are grouped together. They should be separated and any observations based only on those animals that were exposed for the full 13 weeks. This will be carried out; data from the early deaths will be tabulated but not commented on. Page 28 If the rotameters were fully open, why a smoke concentration change assuming a reproducible posifion 2 and stable air supply? I am still not sure why chamber monitoring figures showed a 'dip" mid-study that was not reflected in position 2 values or level of dilution. MBA admitted to their shortcomings early on in the study with regard to monitoring and controlling the diluting air flow. Ray David is to tabulate the individual air flows on a daily basis and provide more detailed information regarding smoke dilution. Whilst this is a recognised shortcoming early on in the study, variations in chamber concentration were small and the same for all exposed groups. Page 29 No mention of male adrenal weights in group 4. Although the differences were not statistically significant on a % brain weight basis, they were still elevated compared to other groups. This witl be considered under the whole area relating to adrenal organ weights. Page3! How can there be week 15 in a 13 week study? Even with a staggered start it shc,uld only be 14 weeks. Week t4 for a t3 week study is due to a staggered start/finish. Week t5 is a calendar week. Le. the final "experiment week" was across two calendar weeks. This will be clarified in the report. Cb Cb Co (3o BATCo document for Legal Services • Health Canada 21 October 1999
Page 16: 02800509
Page 63 This is all the animals, not only those exposed tor the full 13 weeks. It should also include the sham group and "no effect"incidence. Lung changes appear to be smaller than macroscopic. Why are the macrophage (pigmented) changes not tabulated? Regarding the histopathology group, comparisons are made on the severity of the individual lesions, not taking into account the extent of the changes. It is not clear if both elements should be considered. For example, which, if any, is the greater response - a grade 3 focal change or a grade 1 multifocai or diffuse change? Does just taking the severity score in isolation reflect the relative magnitude of the response? The points will be covered in the final report. Discussions with the pathologist suggested that the severity score was sufficient to distinguish between any variation in response, Le. grade 3 is a larger response than grade 1, irrespective of extent. Page 66-69 Bodyweight curves include days 100 and 101 for a 91 day study, The scale also changes from 7 day to 1 day valuesl Why the fall off in bodyweight after day 99? Bodyweight fall off after day 99 is due to starving the animals prior to autopsy. The values for days 100/101 are misleading and will be removed from the growth curves. The other issue raised was: Accuracy of larynx sections (see attached note) The apparent deviation from the protocol and laryngeal sections provided was outlined and concern expressed as to the accuracy of the histcpathoiogy report on this subject. Lucas Brennecke accepted the crifisicm and, fotlowing detailed discussions, agreedto re-evaluate all the laryngeal tissue from existing or re-cut sections. The significance of this re-evaluation will not be known until it has been completed. Reassurance is being sought regarding the quality, in terms of level of section, of the nasal cavity slides.

1 TGM/GS/MM/AGP 25 August 1989 DIOXINS - A REVIEW OF PROPERTIES AND IMPLICATIONS TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM NO. TM.89.08.004 Authors: T.G. Mitchell, G. Smith SUMMARY: Recommendations . 'Dioxins' is the collective common name for a group of compounds more properJy identified as polychlorinated dibenzodioxins (PCDO's). The common name is frequently assumed to include reference to related substances known as polychlorinated d~enzofurans (PCDF's), or more simply lurans'. = These substances have achieved notoriety as a result of studies on their toxic properties in animals which have demonstrated carcinogenic and teratogenic (birth defects) properties following extremely minute doses in some species. . Despite a number of claims of adverse effects in man following gross exposure from industrial and other incidents, there is little proof of any serious clinical effect apart from the skin condition chloracne, , Assessments by governments of their effects have led to a range of values being proposed for maximum regular intake by man. The guideline figure of 1 I:X3 per kiiogramme bodyweight per day set in the U.K. in 1989 has been used to examine the concerns arising from manufacture of consumer products - cigarettes. o The West German data on estimated current intake of dioxins of 1.3 pg per kg bodyweight has been used to compare the significance of smoke exposure and other related factors. ° For cigarette smoke, a number of assumptions have to be made regarding the very small amount of data so far available. The analysis indicates that cigarette smoke is probably of iittte significance in respect of gross discharges of dioxins into the atmosphere. © 1989 BATUKE. Do not copy or show to unau~odsed persons.

o 9~ 10. 11. 12. 13. For a smoker of 60 cigarettes a day, it would constitute possibly 2.5% of the guideline ,figure for human daily intake and 2% of current estimated West German daiiy intake. Of rather greater importance is the observation that it would, at these figures, comprise a significant proportion of total inhaled dioxin intake. it is recommended that validation is obtained of the amount of dioxins in cigarette smoke in order to confirm or refute these conclusions. The possible sources of dioxins in cigarette smoke have been considered. Cigarette tissue is probably the most important potential direct contributor to dioxin s in the product. When sound information on products of specific composition is obtained, i'¢ will be possible to determine the relevance of specificatfons for dioxin content in ~ssue. Other sources have also been examined including residues of chlorinated chemicals from agriculture, chlorinated phenol preservatives and factory materials. The longstanding recommendation not to use chlorinated hydrocarbon herbicides and insecticides in tobacco growing should be re-emphasised, even though their contribution to dioxin levels in the product would be very small. In the same way, chlorinated phenols should not be used as preservatives in the direct tobacco environment. Any proposed use of chlorine compounds, including inorganic salts, as product additives, will require consideration of potential effects on dioxin production. The possible contribution of chlorinated compounds such as the plastic PVC emphasises the importance of strict control of waste streams in factories wherever recovery and reconstitution of tobacco is employed. There is adequate evidence to show that the production of bleached paper pulp leads to the formation of dioxins both in the product and in waste streams deriving from it. 14. Two approaches should be followed with bleached paper production: 15. 16. (a) To reduce and supplant as far as possible the use of chlorine as bleaching agent. (b) To increase the use of chlorine dioxide in place of chlorine Where black liquor recovery systems are employed, dioxin levels in gaseous emissions should be controlled indirectly by combustion temperature. In the case of liquid effluents, the main approaches to reduction of dioxins should be via attack of the pdmary process supported by monitoring of effluent streams for total organic chlorine content. © 1989 BATUKE.

Dead Spirits - Version 1.2Aug 26, 2012 Full Version 4 comments
Release 1.2 of my Custom story, if any bugs/glitches that i haven't seen i would like if you either commented or PMed me with the bug(s)/glitch(es) and...
- is a Custom Story I made completely alone, wich was released on August 17, 2012.
This was my very first Custom Story, I hope you rate it fairly :)
Bernard Cornell, the man who owns the Cornell Resident.
The Cornell Resident has been inherited through many generations, but it hides many unpleasant secrets.
Your friend, Harry, is stuck to live at the Cornell Resident for his study, but why he didn't choose
the old library nobody knows.
Your Cousin Drake also lives there for his study...
Why would people study at a resident? Is there a greater amount of knowledge? Or do they provide costless meals?
Your friend Harry seems to be an assistant to Bernard Cornell.
It seems they are testing a drink on humans, innocent humans or guilty ones?
Will you ever find out whats going on?
You live at the Cornell Resident, with your cousin Drake, you have- or more rightly said: HAD a friend named Harry who lived as a guest in the Resident.
When you go to your friend's room, he's not there. When you seek Cornell, he's not there.
You don't seem to find anyone.
You remember something Harry said about a drink, a drink that would cure your sanity loss, you need to find that drink, you may be going insane.
Maybe you're just seeing things, or is everyone really dead?

Hello everyone.
As you may already know, a sequel exists, but it's not released nor done.
My plans were to divide a sequel into 2 parts, considering I was too eager to start making one.
So I thought; Let's make one for The Dark Descent, and one for A Machine For Pigs.
Now as many of you know A Maching For Pigs didn't support custom stories, so that changed my idea around a little.
Now my plan would be to simply make it all in one, wich would take longer though.
But nothing solid about this so far, I will keep working a little and see what's best.
I lost intrest in Amnesia early 2013 wich would explain why I haven't progressed much on this sequel.
I'm too lazy too pick it up now, but I make small steps from time to time, so it's not at a 100% halt.
So we'll see when progress speeds up. (Hopefully before next year.)
I just want to make something clear though: I'm not cancelling this project.
So yes, it will come sooner or later.
And I would like to thank everyone who played my Custom Story and all the let's players out there that played it for me too see.
Take care people, and stay tuned! :)
Release 1.2 of my Custom story, if any bugs/glitches that i haven't seen i would like if you either commented or PMed me with the bug(s)/glitch(es) and...
I'm enjoying it so far, but I can't find the key to the locked door in the cells of the prison celler
I'm not finished with your custom story just yet, but I enjoy playing it so far. Thanks. ^^
If you feel like it, you can watch my playthrough of your custom story. c: Part five is being uploaded as I type this.
I just finished watching it, very good! (Sorry for late reply, lol :P)
Youtube.com - A little let's play I made, hope you enjoy.
The custom story itself isn't half bad, I quite enjoy it :D Some good mapping. Cannot comment on the plot yet since I don't know what's it about, but I guess I'll figure that out later in the game :) Gonna finish it and come back with review/rating.
Cheers :)
I was wondering if I may take a crack at this mod and do a let's play on it. I like to get permission first. ^^
Go ahead and do a Let's Play if you want, I'll be sure to have a look at it :P
The name of this mod doesn't make sense, how can spirits be dead?
That's the mystery ;)
Ohh my god.. Amazing work !
The best moment, when girl with blue face run to me :D

Lowest Rated (2 agree) 5/10
It was a good story, but it have so many bad points... The mapping wasn't very good - it has a lot of glitches; the storyline was repetitive and the scares were terrible and non-sense. This story was really rushed dude. I won't complain about the english mistakes because i'm not a native speaker, so i make a lot of mistakes too. But anyway, you should check the original Amnesia and see how to create a good and scary atmosphere (AVOID THE NON-SENSE JUMPSCARES, IT BREAKS THE ATMOSPHERE). If this was…

Carver Festival | Two Events Set for May 14th
Raymond Carver fans will have the opportunity to catch two special Raymond Carver Festival programs on Tuesday, May 14, at Peninsula College.
At 12:30 pm, the opening reading of the Writer-in-Residence/Raymond Carver Festival will be held in the Little Theater and will feature Writer-in-Residence poet Jane Mead and poet/short-story writer Tess Gallagher, Carver's widow.
At 7:00 pm, the Magic of Cinema will screen the Carver documentary, To Write and Keep Kind. The film's director, Jean Walkinshaw, will be a special guest.
Writer-in-Residence Reading
At the Writer-in-Residence reading, Mead and Gallagher will share memories of Raymond Carver and insights into his work. The reading will feature Carver pieces of personal importance to each of the writers and works by Mead and Gallagher that speak to Carver's sensibility and influence.
Mead first studied poetry writing formally at Vassar College with Nancy Lindbloom, while earning a degree in Economics. Later she entered the MA program at Syracuse University, where she studied with Tess Gallagher and first met Raymond Carver. After earning her MFA from the University of Iowa, she went on to teach at a number of colleges, including Colby College, and Wake Forrest University, where she was Poet-in-Residence for many years.
When her father died in 2003, she moved to California to take over the management of her grandfather's vineyard. She now teaches on the faculty of the Drew University Low Residency MFA Program in Poetry and Poetry in Translation. Her third book of poetry, The Usable Field, came out from Alice James in 2008, and a new book, Money Money Money/Water Water Water, is forthcoming from Alice James. Mead is a recipient of grants and awards from the Whiting, Lannan and Guggenheim Foundations.
Gallagher is the widow of Raymond Carver and lived with him for ten years between Syracuse, NY, where they taught together until 1983, and Port Angeles, where they lived at the time of his death on August 2, 1988. Gallagher has managed all the affairs of Raymond Carver's work for the past 25 years.
Her ninth volume of poetry, Midnight Lantern: New and Selected Poems, is out from Graywolf Press and from Bloodaxe Press in England. Other poetry includes Dear Ghosts, Moon Crossing Bridge, and Amplitude. A Path to the Sea, translations of Liliana Ursu's by Adam Sorkin, Ms. Gallagher, and Ms. Ursu, came out September 2011. Ursu visited Port Angeles and read in the Raymond Carver Room at the Public Library in the fall of 2012.
Gallagher's The Man from Kinvara: Selected Stories was published in fall 2009. In 2008 Blackstaff Press in Belfast published Barnacle Soup—Stories from the West of Ireland, a collaboration with the Sligo storyteller Josie Gray, available in the United States from Carnegie Mellon. Distant Rain, a conversation with the highly respected Buddhist nun, Jacucho Setouchi, of Kyoto, is both an art book and a cross-cultural moment.
Gallagher is also the author of Soul Barnacles: Ten More Years with Ray, A Concert of Tenses: Essays on Poetry, and two collections of short fiction: At the Owl Woman Saloon and The Lover of Horses and Other Stories. She wrote the preface for Beyond Forgetting, an anthology of poems about Alzheimer's. She also spearheaded the publication of Raymond Carver's Beginners in Library of America's complete collection of his stories published Fall 2009. Jonathan Cape published Carver's Beginners as a single volume in the United Kingdom in fall 2009.
Gallagher spends time in a cottage on Lough Arrow in Co. Sligo in the West of Ireland where many of her new poems are set, and also lives and writes in her hometown of Port Angeles, Washington.
To Write and Keep Kind Documentary
The evening showing of the documentary To Write and Keep Kind, which will be shown in Maier Performance Hall at 7:00 pm, chronicles the life and career of short story writer and poet Raymond Carver and features interviews with Carver, Alfredo Arreguin, Tobias Wolff, Tess Gallagher, and others. Director Jean Walkinshaw will attend the screening and be present for a Q&A afterward. The screening is made possible by permission from KCTS, Seattle.
Walkinshaw has produced television for The History Channel; KING, the NBC affiliate in Seattle where she began her broadcasting career in 1963; SCCtv; and KCTS, Public Television in Seattle.
She has written, edited, and field-produced more than 49 local and national documentaries and has managed and directed film crews in Russia, Japan, and Africa, as well as the United States.
Walkinshaw is also the recipient of more than 30 major local and national awards. With Roberta Byrd, an African American activist, she created the weekly series, Face to Face. This program, according to a Columbia University Survey of Broadcast Journalism, was the first program series in the nation to consistently cover minorities. She traveled to Ghana, West Africa, and Japan to feature recruits in both the Japanese and American Peace Corps. She also has produced a variety of programs, including Children of the Homeless, The River, Rainier the Mountain, The Rohna Disaster, and WWII's Secret Tragedy, commissioned by and aired on The History Channel.
Walkinshaw has profiled many fascinating people, including ballet artistic directors Francia Russell and Kent Stowell; painter Jacob Lawrence; and writers Ivan Doig, Tom Robbins, Theodore Roethke, Tony Hillerman, and Raymond Carver.
Walkinshaw began working on To Write and Keep Kind (which takes its title from an essay by Tess Gallagher) shortly after Carver's death with the cooperation and help of Gallagher. During that process they became and have remained friends.

Currently, Greenland residents rely heavily on air travel to get around, but are plagued by empty flights and staggering prices. BIG and its cohorts are proposing to address this domestic problem with a global solution. The Greenland Transport Commission identified the island of Augisunnguaq, south of Nuuk, as a potential new hub for connecting Greenland domestically and internationally by air and by water. But Connecting Greenland: AIR + PORT isn't just about creating a new piece of transportation infrastructure. It proposes a variety of programs and mixed uses for the area as the genesis of a new paradigm of efficient transportation and vibrant public programs that would benefit the whole country. This holistic solution is what Bjarke Ingels calls Social Infrastructure.
This vision is part of Greenland's attempt to position itself at the center of major world economies like Europe, Asia and America. Instead of positioning itself as a back-water in harsh and inaccessible part of the world, Greenland wants to explore its potential as a transit hub between Europe and America – increasing potential transit tourism while at the same time cutting costs for local commuters.
Other parts of the POSSIBLE GREENLAND exhibit include Cultivating Greenland, Inhabiting Greenland and Migrating Greenland, exploring the multiple aspects of the country as a way to work towards a more prosperous and connectedglobal future.

For Abby Renard, the plan was supposed to be simple - join her brothers' band on the last leg of their summer tour and decide if she's finally ready for the limelight. Of course, she never imagined that stumbling onto the wrong tour bus at Rock Nation would accidentally land her in the bed of Jake Slater, the notorious womanizing lead singer of Runaway Train. When he mistakes her for one of his groupies, Abby quickly lets him know she sure as hell isn't in his bed on purpose. Jake Slater never imagined that the angel who fell into his bed would resist his charms by promptly kneeing him in the balls. Of course, the fact that she seems like a prissy choir girl makes her anything but his type. So he is more than surprised when, after betting Abby that she won't last a week on their tour bus, she is more than willing to prove him wrong. But as Jake's personal life begins to implode around him, he finds an unlikely ally in Abby. He's never met a woman he can talk to, joke with, and most importantly, make music with. As the week comes to a close, neither Abby nor Jake is ready to let go. Can a sweetheart country songstress and a rock 'n' roll bad boy actually have a future together?
©2013 Katie Ashley (P)2013 Tantor
I'm proud to be a bookaholic...addicted, obsessed, passionate!!! My favorite way to relax & escape reality....
"I have a huge weakness for rock star romances!"
First, the narrators are great! I need to be honest.... I am a sucker for romances involving sexy hot rock stars! Music of the Heart is done in both Jake's and Abby's POV. Abby, a Christian good girl, on her way to meet up with her brothers' Christian rock band accidentally finds herself traveling on the wrong rock band's tour bus.. She supposed to be making some appearances with her brother's band so she can decide whether or not she wants a career as a musician. Instead Abby ends up making a bet with the famous rock god man slut, Jake. To win the bet she must stay on the tour bus with him and the band for a week. Jake makes the bet with "angel" that she would not be able to handle a week on their tour bus. Abby may be sweet & innocent but she is not going to let this rocker tell her what to do. The chemistry and witty banter between Jake and Abby is fabulous! You instantly love Jake and all his band mates. Abby is a take no crap kind of girl. Growing up with three brothers she knows how to hold her own. She's grown up in a Christian home and is proud to still be a virgin. She has very little insecurities when it comes to her self esteem and moral values. She knows what she wants and it's not some one night stand with a guy that's not going to love her. There's a ton of tension & drama but within the week sparks start to ignite into something more between them. They have a whirlwind romance full of ups and downs. Jake definitely makes you love him one minute and want to smack him in the head the next. Overall, Music of the Heart is a rock star romance about two musically gifted people falling in love.... one person just happens to be a tattooed rocker & the other is a country good girl with a pure heart. The story does have some emotional family issues, crazy ex lovers, sexual chemistry, and first time experiences. Happy listening!
"Sweet Rocker Love!!"
This was a short and sweet love story. Some of the dialog was a bit corny but all and all a good read. If your in the mood for a light love story that ends with no over done trilogy then go for it.
Justine was great as usual, I don't know why they are doing more and more duel narration, I hate it, It's like watching a movie with two actors playing the same part. I think good narrators make the characters and just when you get used to them someone else comes in a messes it all up. Anyway enough of my ranting, Happy reading!!
It's all about romance in my library! I have a wonderful husband, children and my grandchildren they are my rock.
"Cute Love Story!"
Yes, it was a good story line.
There were a couple of memorable moments - 1st Abbie and Jake sang together. 2nd When Jake lost his mother.
They both did an excellent job. It's hard to choose.
I will keep it the same as the book. Because they both sang from the heart.
"Funny & a great story"
This book had me laughing within the first couple of chapters I found it a great read I would recommend this book.
"Terrible audio"
I hated that this book switched from a woman reader to a man reader. Mason Lloyd made the heroine sound like a drag queen. I could barely get through listening to his chapters. Then when Justine O.Keef picked up with Mia's chapters the heroine sounded normal again. I don't mind Justine O.Keef's man voice but Mason Lloyd's lady voice is horrible.
I hated that this book switched from a woman reader to a man reader and that Mason Lloyd mad the heroine sound like a drag queen.
I don't normally do reviews but this audio book was so bad other readers should know to just read the kindle version.
I suggest they redo this audio book with just Justine O.Keef as the reader.
"Warning**** seriously bad book***"
A five year old, the dialog in this book is hard to listen to, I can believe a publisher thought this was okay.
I am an avid reader of fiction. I have found that listening to audio books adds another layer of appreciation to the art of writing.
"Want more like this one!!"
I liked that it had a main character who was religious but normal!! Abbi really has a lot of moxi!!!
Jacob ... he really had internal battles to fight.
***Spoiler**** When his mother died. I don't want to say any more because it will ruin the story .
Yes, when Jacob's mother is on her death bed.
This was a book that was a fun read. It had many emotions from many characters. This book was the first in the series but I did not read it first. I wish I had! The female performer was great ... the male performer needs to work on his "Angel" voice.
I'm one of the reviewers at the Guilty Indulgence Review Site. I am always reading - I don't go anywhere without an ebook or audiobook!
"Take It Or Leave It"
Another rocker romance with nothing phenomenal to offer. It's not great but it's not awful. There's just so much more out there to choose from that I enjoyed more.
"Not for me."
I don't get the great reviews on this one but maybe it's just me. I like a sweet love story, but with this one I think it rotted my teeth.The story is about a couple in their 20's but talk and act like early teens {13-14} maybe. Another wasted credit!
"Great book"
I really enjoyed this book. Jake and Abbey were great together. I listened to it on audible and the narrators did a good job also.
There are no listener reviews for this title yet.

text: When Scotland's Jiezuberband released their 2012 Debut album, 'Sound Of The Sun', it instantly reached an awestruck audience. Grand, sweeping and hard-hitting, it was a collection of songs built with a heart and soul, crafted by passion and informed by staunch lyrical and musical frankness. It set Jiezuberband on a journey, a journey that will never end. In a world of music that is dominated by talent(less) show winners, mass-marketed manufactured bands and completely meaningless music, here, finally, is a band in which you can invest your heart.

RELEASED: April 30, 2009
EAU CLAIRE — The University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire has announced the performance schedule for Spring Fest, the annual campus celebration of music and spring to be presented May 4-8. The free festival on the Central Campus Mall (rain site The Cabin of Davies Center) will run from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. each day, and grilled lunch items will be sold.
May 4: Meridene. Meridene is an Eau Claire band influenced by The Shins, Sufjan Stevens, Rilo Kiley, Wilco and Death Cab for Cutie. After 18 months of lineup adjustments that resulted in a so-close-to-becoming-a-completely-new-band transformation, Meridene released a full-length album — "You're Not Pretty, You're Worse" (2008). The band's sound has morphed from alt-country to sportive indie-rock power pop, featuring the finger-snappy songs of frontman Trevor Ives (vocals, guitar).
May 5: Paper George. Influenced by Ben Folds, Death Cab For Cutie, Spoon, Ben Kweller, Coldplay and Keane, this Eau Claire-based indie band came together in September 2008 and started writing and performing its own music. Paper George is Eric Christenson (piano, synth, glock, lead vocals), Brian Johnson (bass, backing vocals), Daniel Smith (drums, backing vocals), and Jessica Simone Doing (everything else, backing vocals).
May 6: South Farwell. This eclectic alternative band from Eau Claire is led by former Easychair frontman Bill Boles. Backed by guitarist Tim Coughlin, the percussion work of Cory Dahl and Phil Juodis on bass, South Farwell is the latest addition to the Midwestern soundscape that is gaining renown in today's national (and international) music scene. The band will soon release its debut album, "Tear Everything Down."
May 7: EverGreen Grass Band. This rock-infused bluegrass band is based in Eau Claire. When the group came together in fall 2008, it reunited four members of the Ultimate Frisbee Orchestra — Tim Listcher (guitar, vocals, mandolin), Matt Jagow (banjo, vocals, guitar, ukulele, mandolin), Steve Bateman (harmonica) and Beau Brantner (drums) — and added Dan Turner (bass) and Mike Turner (fiddle) and Leah Webb (mandolin, vocals, acoustic guitar). The EverGreen Grass Band plays frequently in the Chippewa Valley, co-headlining at festivals or opening for nationally touring acts such as Trampled by Turtles, Cornmeal, Hot Buttered Rum String Band, the DeWayn Brothers and the Ragbirds. Their high-energy show consists of a mix of driving bluegrass, traditional Americana and sometimes-outrageous covers.
May 8: Ada Jane. This Minneapolis group delivers a varied sound style that ranges from moody dirges similar to the darker moments of Wilco or Bruce Springsteen, to rollicking rock that has been compared to Husker Du. In August, the band will release a follow-up to its debut CD, "Never Been Better." Ada Jane is Matt Marka (vocals, guitar), Charlie Wilson (drums, vocals, clarinet), David Strahan (guitar, bass, pedal steel, vocals) and Collin Neugebauer (bass, keys, trombone, vocals).
The University Activities Commission of the Student Senate sponsors Spring Fest, a campus tradition since 1986.

text: Share the post "Focused On The Fitment // Manny's Neckbreaking 350z" FacebookTwitterGoogle+PinterestStumbleUpon It's been a while since I've actually gotten excited over a well-executed car. In this industry, you usually see the same people every week at the same car meets, who most likely compete at the same shows. You pass by the same cars until suddenly, you pass that one car. A car that truly lives up to the meaning of being a neckbreaker. A car that you've never seen anywhere else, not at any local shows or meets. Just the occasional Instagram post captioned "who owns this car?". A car with such strong presence that you can't help but just stare at it as it passes you by in what seems like slow-motion. I call those unicorn cars. This one in particular is owned by Manny Ibarra of Calexico, California. Photos By: Boogie Santos exclusively for StanceNation.com The one thing that probably grabs your attention first is the super-aggressive fitment. Manny is a purist and doesn't believe in crazy body kits, so he opted to focus on the fitment, so we'll begin with that. His current wheels are a set of custom steplip Work Equips, rocking 19×11.5″ up front and 19×12 in the rear, -23 and -25 offsets. The front wheels require a 5mm spacer in order to clear the OEM brakes. To help achieve his current stance, Manny installed a set of Stance GR Coilovers and modified Circuit Sports Arms all around to achieve the near-demon camber. A slight fender roll and pull allows the 235/35f and 245/35f series tires to fit snugly beneath the already fat 350Z fenders. As I mentioned earlier, Manny is not a huge fan of bodykits. He decided to keep the car's exterior clean and simple. He is, however, a fan of the Ings front spoiler that now sits up on the front fascia nicely. That's pretty much it: clean and simple. The interior is just as simple. The seats were reupholstered by Katzkin. The steering wheel was provided by Grip Royal along with an NRG Hub and Quickrelease. Under the hood, a Fujita5 Intake provides air to the engine and an S-Tuned Nismo Exhaust releases it. This combo creates a sound that most 350z owners dream of. This car used to rock a ton of other wheel setups previously, including but not limited to a set of Gram Lights 57 Pro, Volk CE28, Volk TE37, Work Meisters, Work VS-XX, Garson Deep Racing Wheels and VIP Modular VX310s. Believe me when I say how much of a neckbreaker this car truly is. After shooting the car, we headed out to a local meet and nearly every car we passed had to double-take our caravan. We couldn't even park our cars without having to ask people to move out of the way. It was definitely the center of attention that night. Future plans are to just keep riding low, keep breaking necks and possibly move onto a bigger VIP platform. Manny would like to give shoutouts to Milt and Chris from Low-n-Slow, Buler and Biggie for the help, Boogie for the last-minute shoot and to his son Angel, the only one allowed to ride in the Z. 41 Responses hotrod2 September 2, 2012 Really? I couldn't even get this out of my driveway… sometimes things are just too extreme. I see dangerous rear tire mount, extreme tire wear, oil pan damage, fender damage – is it really worth it? what's next, wheels poking thru the tops of the fenders to get extreme low…? Reply TheRealFlushFiends October 11, 2012 Not sure if Troll or Serious Reply Samhain6 September 2, 2012 Wrong offsets are wrong. Either article goofed on specs, or owner is trollolololol Reply Jarrod September 2, 2012 Alright, before I get flamed, I am ALL for the fitment scene and good looking cars with flush setups, but 245s on a 12″ wheel is a little ridiculous. Lets be honest, it's just a blowout waiting to happen, and then that's endangering other peeps on the road. I'm all for looking cool and stretching sidewalls, but when it's this extreme I just think it's a little ignorant. Regardless, it looks great parked. Reply Andrew walker September 2, 2012 19's realy dude!!!! They are to big ;18's would be awesome!!!!! Oh well……….. Still looks sweet!!!!!!! Reply Tony September 2, 2012 I am by no means a purist against stance but this car does not look good. Looks like its riding on pizza pans on the rear, smh. Reply Kevin Truong September 2, 2012 Sick! Reply Max September 2, 2012 forkin ridiculous… Reply Martin September 2, 2012 It looks like I'm the only one who thinks this Z is awesome! Props to the owner for sure and the photographer for the sick photos, be happy and admire others work and learn to enjoy and respect what may not be to your taste Reply Dennis Mistander September 2, 2012 Looks awesome! Would be impossible to have where I live but it looks great! Reply Manny Ibarra September 2, 2012 Typo on the wheel specs. Correct specs 19×11.5-23 19×12-25 Reply Elvis September 2, 2012 Good catch Manny! Reply CAMBERD September 3, 2012 Woow what a sick 350Z!! I wonder how 19×12 and 19×14 iForged wheels would look on that thing… Reply TerryJ September 3, 2012 Nicely done.The only thing I would do is probably add a big brake kit setup but then again I would hope the spacers would clear them,but I love the neck breaking aggressiveness of this Z lol. Reply rotorbrain September 3, 2012 all the people hatin stop it its not a good look u think this guy cares about what u think not so if its nothin positive u have to say dont say it at all its all about stance on stance nation Reply miguel September 3, 2012 I remember that car going up the drive way to the photo shoot spot was lookin clean as hell…ppl sloin down to lookswhen we where on the freeway hahahaha Reply Javier Ramirez September 3, 2012 what a way to represent for the z's man I'm also from Calexico, CA. Wish you the best of luck and keep that car as clean as it is right now :). p.s. The heat is killing us Reply Beanbag September 3, 2012 Fuck getting it in & out of ya driveway. As if u need to, I'd be happy with it in my living room haha. But then again breaking necks & just cruising would be fun Reply aj. September 3, 2012 you people are so judgmental, stfu please. Reply anthony waln September 3, 2012 So many haters, why be on stancenation if your gonna hate on the cars on here, go on an oldmobile website or somethin damn. Y'all just mad your car ain't on here, you don't got money for this shit, or you got nothin better to do. This dude doin shit right and I got mad love for this whip! Reply nick September 5, 2012 LOL, Oldsmobile… Reply Abner September 3, 2012 This Car is Sick! Happy to see a friend reppin on SN… Reply anthony waln September 3, 2012 Manny your a boss keep doin your thing man fuck the haters Reply Brad September 3, 2012 All I gotta say is good choice on the nismo exhaust thats whats on my z and it sounds soooooo sexy but 19's sittin like that is just gaudy my nismo rims dropped 2 inches sits perfectly Reply andretti esposito September 3, 2012 where's that ass shot? Reply A.King September 4, 2012 lol i was thinkin the same…Where'Z'booty?!?! Reply Dean September 3, 2012 Soo much poke! Killer fitment! Reply kamran September 4, 2012 no picture of the ass? Reply kennyjevon September 4, 2012 Looks fresh to me. He made the feature so where'd he go wrong? Real talk if you didn't like a page in a magazine you keep flippin right? I'm just sayin Reply andretti September 4, 2012 I know the photographer and the owner of the vehicle. it's simply a question. come on. calm down. Reply Boogie September 5, 2012 i took one but it got scrapped. just the nature of the biz. some shots make it, some shots don't. =( gdirty5 September 4, 2012 ILLLLLLL. That hood can't be oem. Reply Taylor September 5, 2012 Its OEM lol Reply shaun mcmilla September 4, 2012 why no ass shot? come onnn Reply Taylor September 5, 2012 Fitment in the front looks great, the rear is awful… For the person telling people to go to an oldmobile site and get off stancenation, you're stilly. Stance can mean anything to flush with a drop to… well this. Although I think this car looks retarded, having haters and lovers is a great thing. It means everyone has different tastes and opinions. If we all had the same tastes and opinions, all our cars would look the same and it would get boring and old fast so props to taking your cars fitment to the next level of extreme… I am sure I'd slow down on the freeway or break my neck trying to looking at it, but not because I think it looks badass or "ill". Reply omi gardens October 13, 2013 you know it looks good othe wise dont look. hater. Reply Biggie September 6, 2012 Mad props homie….happy you made it on SN, Damn I miss my Z, hope I get a shoot on my Y33 hahha finally somebody representing for Calexico good job..ohhh and Manny don't forget "HATERS WILL HATE" Reply KidDiego September 13, 2012 I really dont think someone "hating" has anything to do with being able to afford a look. Just because you can drive with your fucking feet doesnt make it a good idea. The rear, to extreme for my tastes. The accessories on the cars from F&F WERE cool for some once upon a time to. lol. Reply JFletch October 1, 2012 This is deffinetly rediculous. I am sorta into the whole hellaflush scene and some of these cars do look amazing. If I wanted that look I would run air ride so I can get a decent camber at ride hight. These extreme cambered cars just look like an accident waiting to happen. I can't see anything good with spending that much on tires and only running 35-40% of the tread on the ground. When I bought my G35 it had some stretched tires and I always thought they were flat cuz the rim looked like it was on the ground. I can't even imagine cornering hard in that bitch. I'm more of a functional builder and my AWD keeps all four on the ground solid. I think you can get an aggressive stance and fittment without doing this. I couldn't believe when I was reading a flush forum and those buys are buying camber kits to get their camber further out of Wack. It reminds me of Kris's Kross wearing their pants backwards. Reply Elvis July 2, 2013 @JFletch Phuck your G35 and awd. Reply omi gardens October 13, 2013 looks dope. to many haters on this page Reply Leave a Reply Cancel reply

HFCs, banks turn partners
February 9, 2009
Atmadip Ray , ET Bureau
KOLKATA: Banks and housing finance companies (HFCs) are known to compete fiercely in the home loan turf. But in an interesting development, both class of lenders have chosen to come together to beat the slump in housing loan offtake. What they are doing is pretty simple: agreeing to grow business together using their respective expertise and share the loan book between them. One such agreement was recently inked between Mumbai-based Dewan Housing Finance Corp and state-run Punjab & Sind Bank (PSB)

India calls for political consensus on phasing down HFCs
November 21, 2014
PARIS: India today called for a "political consensus" on phasing down climate-damaging hydrofluorocarbons and asked the UN to convene a special session of the Montreal Protocol to address concerns of developing nations amid efforts by US-led developed nations to push for a global treaty on HFCs. Showing flexibility in its approach to the issue of phasing down of HFCs at the UN conference on Montreal Protocol here, Environment Minister Prakash Javadekar said that nations should...
Uniform code for HFCs
May 7, 2005
Prabhakar Sinha , TNN
Many a time you must have been baffled by the fact that while your friend got a loan from a bank for buying a flat in a society, the bank you chose to borrow from refused to give you loan to buy a flat in the same housing society. Your bank said that the society in which you are keen to buy a flat is not on its approved list. Similarly, you may have come across a situation where one bank is ready to give you a home loan of Rs 25 lakh while another is ready to lend you Rs 30 lakh. Soon such anomalies could become a...
NHB reviewing HFCs' realty loans
November 9, 2005
Atmadip Ray , TNN
KOLKATA: The National Housing Bank (NHB) is now reviewing housing finance companies' exposure to the real estate sector. NHB has already sought details of loans disbursed by HFCs. Apparently this is the first time that NHB — the Delhi-based apex body for regulating and promoting HFCs — has asked the companies to furnish segment-wise break-ups. In fact, a few home loan players see the NHB move as a precursor to raise the risk weightage on real estate loans to 125% from the...
Countries agree to informal discussion on management of HFCs
November 20, 2014
PARIS: In a significant development, nations assembled here on a UN platform today agreed to a European Union proposal to have an informal discussion on the management of climate-damaging hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs). The decision to have an informal discussion on the issue was taken after Arab oil-producing nations strongly opposed the move by the countries headed by the US to set up a contact group to discuss issues related to management of HFCs. The Arab nations were...
India tight-lipped on the issue of hydrofluorocarbons
November 19, 2014
PARIS: India did not clearly spell out its position on the issue of hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) during a key UN conference here as nations debated whether to set up a contact group for discussing the proposed amendment to the Montreal Protocol to phase down the harmful greenhouse gas. As nations debated pro and cons of the issue, India neither supported nor opposed it and instead merely read out a joint-bilateral statement on HFCs ...
Securitisation Act to cover HFCs
July 3, 2003
Chaitali Chakravarty and Samik Dasgupta , TNN
NEW DELHI: There's good news and bad news on housing loan front. The bad news is for those who default on loan repayment. Housing finance companies (HFCs) like LIC Housing and Dewan Housing will soon be brought under the purview of the Securitisation Act. This would mean a takeover of the houses of the defaulting customer ? just by lodging a police complaint. Housing finance companies, like non-banking finance companies (NBFCs), need, at present, to go through lengthy legal procedure to enforce a...
Banks outsmart HFCs in home loan segment
October 28, 2003
NEW DELHI: Banks have outsmarted housing finance companies by cornering 65 per cent of the home loan market, which grew by a whopping 76 per cent to 51,673 crore last fiscal, a Ficci survey said on Tuesday. "Banks, despite being late entrants, have overtaken the HFCs in the home loan market. The share of banks in total home loan disbursements has risen from 43.6 per cent in 2000-01 to 65.5 per cent in 2002-03," the survey carried out on 47 banks...
NHB not to entertain small HFCs
May 11, 2007
Atmadip Ray , TNN
KOLKATA: National Housing Bank (NHB) appears to have reached zero-tolerance level in case of small housing finance companies (HFCs) that operate with a less than Rs 2 crore net worth. In a recent directive, NHB ? the apex bank for promoting and regulating HFCs ? has asked smaller entities to attain a minimum net-owned fund (NOF) of Rs 2 crore by March 2008. There are about a dozen registered HFCs which fall into the less than Rs 2 crore NOF category. "This is a signal to smaller outfits that the...
NHB stops short-term lending to HFCs
January 21, 2006
Atmadip Ray , TNN
KOLKATA: The National Housing Bank (NHB) has decided not to lend short-term funds to housing finance providers until further notice. The reason cited is that the prevailing short-term market rates are actually higher than what NHB is charging for its financial assistance. So, there is a notional loss for NHB. NHB chairman PK Gupta confirmed the decision. "Why should we provide financial assistance at a rate lower than the market rate?" he said. However, some quarters...
Undervalued HFCs may rediscover actual price
October 22, 2007
MUMBAI: HDFC Securities is positive on housing finance companies (HFCs) and expects their shares to be re-rated owing to lower valuations as against other non-banking finance entities, and prospects of steady growth. "We feel that given the potential of the non-banking finance sector as a whole, the difference in valuation of housing finance companies and that of other finance companies should narrow sooner than later. Housing finance companies currently enjoy...
India refrains from opposing UN discussion on hydrofluorocarbons
November 17, 2014
PARIS: In a significant move, India today did not oppose participation in a discussion on the issue of harmful greenhouse gas hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) under the UN Montreal Protocol on ozone-depleting substances. The change in Indian stand comes in the wake of a joint statement on HFCs signed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and US President Barack Obama on September 30 this year under which both the nations had agreed to discuss the harmful greenhouse...

Why private sector is vital in addressing the urban housing need of 15 million homes
August 10, 2014
By: Vikram Jain, Aditya Agarwal & Ashish Karamchandani Housing for the poor and low-income households in urban India has failed to keep up with our rapid urbanization. The government estimates a shortage of more than 18 million houses, primarily among the EWS and the LIG (economically weaker sections and low income groups).

While most home loan customers prefer banks to housing finance companies, the latter have begun to increase their share due to product innovations, competitive rates, flexibility and hassle-free processes, says R Vaithianathan in an interview with Amit Shanbaug. Why have banks always been the preferred choice for home loans instead of the housing finance companies (HFC)? It is more a matter of convenience for the buyer. A...
Banks to benefit more than HFCs through long-term bonds: Icra
