Charlotte's United Way is giving out extra money to the majority of its 82 partner charities for the first time since 2010.
Beginning July 1, grants will grow to $17 million – a $500,000 increase over last year.
United Way board member Tim Morrissey said the agency felt compelled to increase funding – even if it means taking money from reserves – because of increased need in the community.
"This is a big day," he said. "We are confident that we have reached a level of stability. ... We don't want a roller coaster, with funding going up and down for agencies. We think this level is something we can maintain."
More than half of all United Way member charities earned an increase: 47 of the 82 agencies funded by United Way across five counties. The median increase was $8,000. The highest increase was $63,200 for the Salvation Army of Greater Charlotte.
United Way Executive Director Jane McIntyre said the improved economy is a major reason the board felt confident enough to give the extra money.
"A more stable workforce made the difference in our campaign increase," said McIntyre, noting that 97 percent of the campaign's donors followed through on pledges. "We've had double-digit increases in a bunch of corporate campaigns."
Nine agencies (13 charity programs) will see a median funding decrease of 10 percent, officials said. In some cases, charities asked for less money. In other cases, the charity programs did not show the desired impact on critical community needs.
Over the past three years, McIntyre has edged up the campaign's annual goals from $20.9 million to $21.5 million.
At the height of its financial struggle in 2009, the agency's annual campaign fell $15 million short from the year before. The result was a series of cuts to member charities, some losing around 40 percent of their money.
That shortfall was blamed on the impact of the recession on Charlotte's banking community, and donor backlash over a $1.2 million pay package given to former United Way head Gloria Pace King.
United Way fired King and adopted sweeping changes, including cutting the size of its staff and its board of directors.
Some of the agencies that got extra money will be receiving as little as $500, but nonprofit leaders said any increase is encouraging after years of cuts or flat funding.
Carson Dean, head of the Men's Shelter of Charlotte, said his agency is getting about $3,500 more. Those dollars will be used to fill prescriptions for homeless men, using pharmacies that offer the shelter financial breaks on orders.
"Dozens of men will be getting hundreds of prescriptions filled this year with this money, and we're talking critical, life-saving stuff like high blood pressure medicine and insulin," Dean said.
Among the agencies getting the biggest increases:
• Salvation Army of Greater Charlotte: $63,200 increase to help fund the 64-bed expansion of the Center of Hope; open a second Boys & Girls Club in Union County; and add a computer learning module for Boys & Girls Clubs in Mecklenburg.
• YMCA of Greater Charlotte: $48,343 to expand the Y Readers program to two additional elementary schools and for a seniors program focused on diabetes prevention.
• The Center for Community Transitions: $47,500 to implement the job readiness curriculum developed for six agencies by the Workforce Development Task Force and to expand the Empowering Kids with Incarcerated Parents program to four additional schools.
• The Relatives: $35,000 to support a new On Ramp program serving young adults (age 16-24, many aging out of foster care) with case management and skill-building services, helping find jobs and avoid homelessness.

Chucho 1.5
Features at a glance
Key features includes console and file logging support, easy-to-use command-line interface, support for diagnostic contexts, support for markers, as well as some basic filters. The complete API documentation can be found on the project's homepage (see link below for details).
Can be configured in two distinct ways
In short, there are two distinct methods to configure Chucho: automatically or none. The automatic configuration is the preferred method for new users, as Chucho will try to find the configuration file and make sense of it the first time a logger is requested. In case you don't want to configure Chucho, then you must establish all the log settings yourself with the help of the Chucho API.
Supported operating systems
It is a command-line application that must be used from a console environment or from an X11 terminal emulator on top of a graphical desktop environment. It runs on all GNU/Linux distributions, as well as on the Mac OS X and Microsoft Windows operating systems.
Under the hood and availability
A quick look under the hood will show us that the program is written entirely in the C++ programming language. Currently, it's available for download from its website only as a universal sources archive, which requires users to configure and compile the software prior to installation. The compilation requires the CMake program (see the attached screenshot on the right for details). Both 32-bit and 64-bit hardware platforms are supported at this time.

NYE Concert
I just wanted to post my disappointment at the price of concerts for NYE. These concerts have become a tradition for my family since they began and have become something that we really look forward to attending. At 100 a ticket its just impossible to attend as a family like we normally do and its a shame because its the end of a family tradition. We are still loving lips fans.....just won't get to see them this year.
Dec 22, 2011 - 8:38pm
i was also disappointed by the increase in price, i assume it has to do with the change of venue. i will be attending the show with the same group i have been the past few years. I am greatly looking forward to it and i am sure it will be worth the cost. it has always been a real unique pleasure and beautiful experience to see the flaming lips and i'm sure it will be again.
Dec 24, 2011 - 4:58pm
My boyfriend and I have two extra tickets for the NYE show. Our friends who were going to be coming cancelled on us. If you anyone is interested, we are willing to take any reasonable offer - including trades :)

I think them playing that while Wayne is still in the bubble is SLAMMIN! It was definitely my favorite part of the set(s).

The Luggage You Can't Live Without
I have the saddest assortment of mismatched, non-functional luggage imaginable. My collection includes, but is not limited to, one enormously unwieldy piece that doesn't even have wheels that I use when I travel to Europe for fashion shows, and a hanging bag (yes, they still exist), also among my fashion-show staples, that fails to grip the hangers so that by the time I unpack, all of my clothes are balled on the bottom. Needless to say, I'm in desperate need of an upgrade, but when I have the choice between spending money on new shoes or a roll-aboard, you can guess which one I always pick. However, I think I've finally found the luggage that's going to inspire me to clean up my travel act.
Last week we checked out the Lands' End fall preview and got a first look at the new Le FlightWise collection, debuting August 1. Each style is a smart, chic, frills-free shape in the most lightweight but sturdy nylon--and all are designed to fit in the overhead compartment. The best part is that not a single piece is more than $170.
In addition to the luggage, we were also loving the the second season of the Lands' End Canvas Collection, a younger, slouchier alternative to the company's more traditional fare. Canvas has everything you want to live in for weekends, including broken-in khakis, boyfriend jeans, button-down shirts in plaids, polkadots, and stripes, a motocross buckle-collar jacket, and a ridiculously soft, slightly full corduroy miniskirt I'm pretty sure the entire fashion department will be wearing this fall.

Portfolio Insulated From a Bumpy Ride
In January I outlined a portfolio that could help insulate against a bumpy U.S. stock market -- and it seems to have held up fairly well so far.
The goal was just to build a diversified portfolio out of a few holdings with the hope it would have less volatility in both directions.
The portfolio includes:
Since that last article, the U.S. stock market has endured a lot of news and big moves in both directions, providing a good test for the concept. Many people want low maintenance without a lot of volatility, but the risk of that sort of portfolio is that it caters too far in the direction of low volatility and ends up lagging a bull cycle by a large amount.From January 22, the portfolio's inception, to last Thursday, the S&P 500 was down 3.66% while the portfolio was up 0.71% (neither result included dividends). From inception to May 19, when the S&P 500's bear-market rally peaked with an 8.8% gain, the portfolio was up 7.2%. From that May 19 peak, the S&P 500 is down 11.50%, while the portfolio has dropped 6.05%. The holding that turned out to be the biggest disappointment was the Nakoma Absolute Return Fund. From mid-February to early May it dropped by 7.57%, which although not awful, clearly was a drag on the portfolio. While it's difficult to know for sure, based on how the holdings are reported, I suspect the velocity of the energy shorts going against them exceeded their expectations. Since bottoming in May, the fund has retraced almost half of that decline.

Dementia (taken from Latin, originally meaning "madness", from de- "without" + ment, the root of mens "mind") is a serious loss of global cognitive ability in a previously unimpaired person, beyond what might be expected from normal aging. It may be static, the result of a unique global brain injury, or progressive, resulting in long-term decline due to damage or disease in the body. Although dementia is far more common in the geriatric population, it can occur before the age of 65, in which case it is termed "early onset dementia". A recent survey done by Harvard University School of Public Health and the Alzheimer's Europe consortium revealed that the second leading health concern (after cancer) among adults is Dementia.
Dementia is not a single disease, but rather a non-specific illness syndrome (i.e., set of signs and symptoms) in which affected areas of cognition may be memory, attention, language, and problem solving. It is normally required to be present for at least 6 months to be diagnosed; cognitive dysfunction that has been seen only over shorter times, in particular less than weeks, must be termed delirium. In all types of general cognitive dysfunction, higher mental functions are affected first in the process.

Sonic the Hedgehog 2 HD wins Game of the Year in Narnia
Wallpaper designer Alchemist Defined has just ruined my day. He (she?) created an absolutely stunning mock-up image of what Sonic the Hedgehog 2 could look like in HD and now I can't focus on anything else. All I see when I look down at this mound of work on my desk are images of a beautifully rendered blue hedgehog running through a gloriously polished parallax scrolling universe. Even though it isn't real, I want this game ... bad.
Hopefully someone at SEGA checks this out and realizes that this is what fans want to see Sonic look like in HD (not this or this). Seriously, can you imagine? Once I am done playing the sequel to Beyond Good & Evil in my fictional videogame world, this is defintiely next.
While it's obviously not news, I just had to share the beauty of this pic with you guys. Check the gallery below for the larger, desktop-ready version (it looks even better blown up!).

Los Angeles-based photographer Jonpaul Douglass has a large following on Instagram, and rightly so: his photos are a nice blend of majesty and quirk, particularly as most of them document pizzas in the wild. The ongoing series, appropriately titled Pizza in the Wild (spotted via BOOOOOOOM), shows a delicious meal in a variety of settings. Some of these look too hilarious to be true (and it only makes me think of Douglass driving around with a freshly baked pie in order to put it on an outdoor object), but it's a fun series that might give you a few chuckles — or, at the very least, a hankering for a slice of pepperoni and extra cheese. … Read More
Brooklyn's 10 Best Under-the-Radar Pizzerias
If you're an aficionado of Brooklyn pizza, you don't need us to tell you about Grimaldi's, Di Fara, or Totonno's. But in what is arguably the pizza capital of the world, there are literally dozens of other places that are almost as good, occasionally even just as good, as those perennial survey winners. Many of them, however, have the handicap of being in less-well-known neighborhoods, or pockets of the borough that are hard for outsiders to get to — you can travel from north Brooklyn to Staten Island in less time than it would take to get to Mill Basin, for example. But this handicap can be a benefit for anyone who's up for a little road trip. No matter where you might plunk yourself down in Brooklyn, it's pretty much guaranteed that you can find a decent slice, or a great slice, less than a half mile away, and more often three blocks away. Here's a sampling of the best pizza places in some of Brooklyn's lower-profile neighborhoods, some of them nowhere near a subway station. Their locations may prevent them from making the best-of lists, but they all serve pizza that's worth the bus or car ride. … Read More

Sadly no one actually wants to play games unless your level 30. Lack of lower levels and general contempt and disdain for anyone below level 30 trying to play makes it a lackluster room for those who havent been playing for 2 years.
Face Chomp
Can't really be mad about lvl 30s only wanting to play with lvl 30s. Chances are you'd just get matched with more 30s and you'd get curbstomped with out all the runes/masteries/champions. That's something you would be mad about.

'Twilight' films see their twilight at Thursday premiere
Even love stories about immortals come to an end.
Such was the case Thursday night as the final film in the "Twilight" film franchise, "Breaking Dawn, Part 2," premiered at Carmike Cinemas' Sikes 10 at Sikes Senter.
Some dedicated Twilighters showed up Thursday morning for the "Twilight" marathon, which included a screening of the previous three films in the series. If they bought the VIP package, they also picked up a VIP badge and poster.
However, most showed up late in the afternoon to line up for the first screening of the last film at 10 p.m.
Many who waited in line came prepared with blankets, portable chairs, magazines and T-shirts like the ones made by "Twilight" moms Cammi Parks and Kim Hendrixson that read, "I like my men cold, dead and sparkly."
Parks and Hendrixson, compete with their VIP badges, showed up at the mall at 9 a.m. Thursday to take in the "Twilight" marathon. The two have read all the books and have been to all the film premieres.
"We're just weird moms," said Hendrixson, who didn't have any teens in tow with her for the premiere. "I have boys. I don't even have girls."
"My daughter did (read the books and watch the films)," said Parks. "She got me into it, and she (Hendrixson) got me into it."
Hendrixson has enjoyed the books and movies about an awkward teen girl who falls in love with the mysterious boy in her new high school – a boy who happens to not be a boy at all but a vampire. Still, she said she's ready for "Twilight" to wrap up.
"It's kind of a relief," she said. "We've enjoyed it, but we're really glad this is it."
"We even do the midnight DVD releases at the Wal-Mart," Parks said.
Kimberly Briones, who brought blankets and food for her wait in line about four hours before the film's debut, said she just couldn't wait to see the final movie in the franchise. She was waiting in line with five of her friends and was expecting two more to show up.
"I'm very upset about it," Briones said about the film ending. "I could watch more and more."
In "Twilight: Breaking Dawn, Part 2," Bella (Kristen Stewart), who no longer is a teen girl but has awakened as a vampire after giving birth to a half-human, half-vampire daughter, has to protect her daughter from the Volturi, the lawmakers of the vampire world. She gets help from her husband, Edward (Robert Pattinson), and best friend, Jacob (Taylor Lautner).
The film, directed by Bill Condon, is expected to bring in $145 million domestically this weekend and arrives in theaters just weeks after a much-publicized split between real-life couple Stewart and Pattinson (who are reportedly back together).
The biggest midnight showing ever of a film is by "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2," which earned $43.5 million. It eventually earned $169.2 million its opening weekend.
One thing Twilighters have been talking about has been "Breaking Dawn Part 2's" surprise ending.
"I heard there was something," Briones said, though "Twilight" mom Parks said she didn't really want a surprise ending. She's a purist and wants the series to end just like the books do.
But whatever happens, one thing's for sure, if there is a midnight DVD release party somewhere a few months from now, Parks and her friend Hendrixson will be there.
"When the DVD comes out, that will be our last hurrah," Hendrixson said.

The Czech Republic advanced to the semi-finals of the Davis Cup, beating Japan in the doubles match to give the defending champions an insurmountable 3-0 lead.
This was our first Davis Cup doubles together. We did well and found our range together and had it under control from the first set.
Radek Stepanek, Czech Republic
The meeting between Japan and the Czech Republic is the first since 1935 and third in total.
The nations split their two previous matches that were both played in Prague, with Japan winning the first in 1930.
Radek Stepanek and Lukas Rosol bowed politely from the baseline after Emperor Akihito and Empress Michiko took their seats behind them.
The Czech pair backed up their wins in Friday's singles by combining to beat Tatsuma Ito and Yasutaka Uchiyama 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 at Ariake Colisseum.
"This was our first Davis Cup doubles together. We did well and found our range together and had it under control from the first set,'' Stepanek said.
The reverse singles, which are effectively dead rubbers, are played on Sunday.
Both teams were without their top players as Tomas Berdych was resting following two tough tournaments in the United States, while Kei Nishikori was sidelined after hurting his groin in a quarterfinal victory over Roger Federer in the Miami Open last week.
The Czech Republic will play the winner of the quarterfinal match between France and Germany in the last four in September.

As of December 23rd 2014 this Keene Dredge Riffle System is on sale. Click here to see the sales price.
One of the really great things about the Keene line of sluice boxes is their ability to transform, or change to meet your needs without having to buy a completely new sluice. This riffle assembly is designed to transform the Keene A51 sluice box into a high production dredge sluice.
The entire original riffle system easily comes out, and the dredge riffle replacement is a direct drop in replacement that quickly transforms the original sluice box.
What is so different about this riffle system?
This drop in replacement features Hungarian style dredge riffles down the entire length of the riffle system. These riffles work better with a dredge system because they can easily handle the extra volume of water, and the faster water flow. For the price, you will not find a better way to turn your already excellent performing Keen A51 sluice box into a monster dredge sluice that can quickly capture twice as much gold.

VOF week Three-( blogging a 'youthful form of media')
"VOF week three- Blogging a youthful form of media"
Coming from a low income country the greatest challenge that I face to blog is the cost. The way I understand blogging it needs constant touch with the computer and access to the internet. This in itself is a challenge since access to these facilities remains a luxury.
The second challenge that I face as far as blogging is concerned is the social value and perception that forms of social media like blogs have in my society. Blogging like other forms of social media are regarded as targeting a youthful audience therefore people still don't regard it as a serious form of media. Blogging is a relatively new concept and it will take a while until when people in my country embrace this form of media. Because of this attitude it is quite hard for most people to visit blogs. Consequently such blogs even when they raise important social issues that are relevant, the debate they generate is low or no debate is generated at all. Therefore it almost feels like you are talking to no one.
Another challenge that I face to blog is the technical know- how on blogging. One is tempted to almost think that bloggers are technologically advanced individuals and that to blog your are required to have knowledge and computer skills. These people are also thought to be knowledgeable and up to date in current affairs.
Lastly having read a few blogs one thing that challenges me the most is the lack of censorship and self regulation. Blogging represents highly opinionated individuals who have the space to express themselves. This is a big departure from traditional journalism that I am used to as an individual. While bloggers and the public alike have a chance to comment on other peoples blogs you almost feel limited in your commenting since this is an individual's free space.
The best way in my opinion to overcome these challenge is to strive to change the attitudes and perceptions of the people in my society. I think it will be important to show that blogging is not a youthful concept rather it is a an excellent means of expressing one self and communicating important and pertinent issues that affect an individual.
Another way is to ensure that individuals with no access to ICT are given a chance to access such devices at low cost prices. Apart from ensuring access to ICT it is also important that computer skills are imparted at all levels of education. In future it is important that as a country Malawi should strive towards ensuring that the cost of ICT is lowered even further to ensure that all people have access to computers and the internet not as a luxury but as a necessary tool of communication.
Miss Malawi
Because of the informal nature of blogs, blogs are not taken seriously.I think blogs and the internet technology as a whole and everything it has to offer is still not understood in the continent! And you cant blame this oldies and mid oldies if no one has ever taught them,shown them, or spoken to them about it how do you expect them to get it! Alot of these people just happened on technology they have a functional understanding of things, if I want to do this press here and this happens.Rather than an actual understanding of the technology that is this is is this and this is why you do this to achieve a certain outcome.In the event that this happens you would go about tackling the issue in this or that way.
Rather than try to retrain old school journalists to this new way of communicating, I would suggest getting new independent thinkers who are trained to multimedia story tell.There is a place for print journalist,tv journalists and new media journalists and one should not be expected to cross over!
VOF Week 3
This is a great post. You bring up many challenges to blogging, which hopefully can be overcome in the future. Good luck as you work to promote and change the attitudes of blogs and social media in Malawi and the rest of Africa! :)

TVGuide.com: You appear on Veronica Mars in "The Quick and the Wed" [airing tonight]. I hear that Kendall makes some sort of offer to Aaron Echolls?Charisma Carpenter: Yes, I do have a nice offer for Aaron — a piece. [Laughs]
TVGuide.com: A what?Carpenter: A piece.
TVGuide.com: Meaning a gun? Or of a--? Or of the action?Carpenter: That's the big question. Maybe a piece of the pie, maybe a piece of me....
TVGuide.com: On the topic of whether Duncan actually ever succumbed to Kendall's charms, Mars creator Rob Thomas said here at TVGuide.com, "Duncan's not built that way." Is that ego-deflating for you to hear or — and this is my theory — is Duncan simply built the wrong way?Carpenter: The latter! [Laughs] I guess Kendall is just not very discerning about to whom she gives her body. But, given some new insights I've been given from Rob, apparently everything has a purpose and a meaning. My character's IQ is about to jump up about 50 points, did he tell you that? Things are about to become very clear.
TVGuide.com: What, has Kendall been putting on some sort of act?Carpenter: [Coyly] I guess.... Rob likened her to Annette Bening in The Grifters, which as you know is an amazing role. I was like, "Really? That's goooood!" I just love those people [at Veronica Mars]. They're awesome.
TVGuide.com: So you're happy with your role? It's different enough from Angel's Cordelia? I know that has been an issue for you, always playing a bitch.Carpenter: You know what? That used to be an issue, but to be honest, I'm not trying to play the heroine chick anymore. I grew out of that. Now it's just about having fun.
TVGuide.com: After all, let's be frank — God didn't really design you to play the nice girl.Carpenter: Not on television, anyway.
TVGuide.com: Has Kendall had her fun and is she now all done with Logan?Carpenter: I don't know.... She's not very nice and Logan is the bad boy. Duncan was the sweet-as-pie boy.
TVGuide.com: Who would Charisma pick? What type do you gravitate toward?Carpenter: [Sighs] Well, in high school it was the a--hole, and then as I got older I knew how to pick them better.
TVGuide.com: Your son, Donovan, is about to turn 3. What sort of "tricks" is he doing these days?Carpenter: His tricks are "kicking the ball," "discovering insects" and talking about the "big giant monkey that's upstairs, sleeping" — and being careful not to wake him up....
TVGuide.com: I assume the "monkey" is Dad?Carpenter: [Chuckles] If I said yes, my husband would die because that would give the impression that he is hairy, and he can't have that. [On a tangent] My husband has decided he wants to take up motocross, which is really pissing me off. I'm like, "What, are you going through a midlife crisis?!"
TVGuide.com: Better motocross than some chirpy 20-year-old.Carpenter: What?! That didn't even enter my mind.
TVGuide.com: I know. How could it possibly?Carpenter: How could it?
TVGuide.com: Hey, are you going to star in Wonder Woman? [Buffy creator Joss Whedon is writing and will direct a big-screen take on the superheroine, to be produced by Joel Silver.] What a great fit that would be.Carpenter: I know! From your lips to God's ears... or Joss'... or Joel's....
TVGuide.com: Speaking of Joss, you're sort of known as the Buffy-verse alum who doesn't charge for autographs at conventions....Carpenter: I just think it's wrong to charge — it feels sleazy and desperate. The only reason I would charge now is because there are [disadvantaged] kids who need assistance. I'm doing a convention [Wizard World Los Angeles] on March 18, and in this case I am charging, but everything is going to charity. So my fans will be helping out a very special kid, a 9-year-old quadriplegic who needs a specially equipped van. If I can exploit myself in a way that helps others, I'll do that.
TVGuide.com: So to everyone reading this: Go to the convention, get an autograph from Charisma and help that kid get a van.Carpenter: Yeah!
TVGuide.com: I missed your recent Lifetime movie, Flirting with Danger. What was that about?Carpenter: [In little girl voice] I was naughty... again. I'm such a hussy! I guess Veronica Mars warmed me up to be naughty.
TVGuide.com: What about Voodoo Moon [a feature in which a psychic woman and her brother hunt down a demonic being]? Will we ever get to see that?Carpenter: I wish I knew what was going on with that. Eric Mabius (The O.C.) plays my brother, and I really loved working on it. It was a fun thing to do and it should appeal to the people who watched Buffy and Angel. It's got fighting and zombies....
TVGuide.com: What TV do you like?Carpenter: I just started the Season 1 DVD for 24, because I have never seen any of it, and we just finished Season 1 of Lost. I tend not to watch shows while they're airing. I'll just wait for the DVD and watch 13 hours or so in one shot. That's the best payoff — you can just go to the next episode without waiting a week. I love Nip/Tuck, and I'm a huge fan of The Sopranos....
TVGuide.com: Someone sneaked me the first four episodes of this season's Sopranos. If you're nice to me, I'll share.Carpenter: Are you in L.A.? No, you're in New York. That's not going to work. I would have come over! We could have hung out and shared popcorn.
TVGuide.com: Don't tease an old man. What else do you have going on?Carpenter: I have three more episodes of Veronica Mars to shoot and it's pilot season, so I'm working my ass off to get a regular job. Hopefully by the end of the month I'll find out if I have one or not. If not, I'll have another baby or...
TVGuide.com: Another baby?Carpenter: I'd like to eventually, but I want Wonder Woman right now. I'm not holding my breath but I'm crossing my fingers and toes and praying.
TVGuide.com: Well, I think that just about covers everything.Carpenter: You think?
TVGuide.com: Well, save for a Q&A excerpt I stumbled across during research. You told Playboy that you once had sex at an Oscars party?Carpenter: I said that?! Oh my god, I can't believe I said that on a public level.
TVGuide.com: Does the outside prospect of doing "that" become a factor when choosing a dress for the Oscars?Carpenter: That's a very witty question, but the answer is no — you just make it work!

I may be wrong, but most projectors are not smart enough to tell you when their life is coming to an end - it just uses a simple lamp counter to let you know. If the bulb deteriorates sooner than expected the projector has no way to know this and inform you.
We had a problem at my previous school where dirt was being tread into the carpet, drying, and then being inhaled in the projector when kids stamped their feet etc (thus knocking the dirt up into the air in a dust form). Caused havoc for the projectors and we were constantly sending them for optical cleans. Most of them needed their prism changing or something though, which was additional. When they came back though they were like new!

Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac Regulator Seeks Input on Lower Loan Limits
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- The Federal Housing Finance Agency, regulator of bailed-out housing finance companies Fannie Mae (FNMA) and Freddie Mac (FMCC), is seeking comments on a plan to gradually reduce the size of loans that the companies purchase from lenders.
The FHFA has been contemplating reducing so-called loan limits as part of a plan to reduce the government footprint in the mortgage market and incentivize private capital to return to the market.
Lowering the loan limits would "modestly reduce Fannie Mae's and Freddie Mac's business at the high end of the market, invite private capital to re-enter the market, and limit taxpayer exposure to losses."
In areas where the statutory maximum loan limit for one-unit properties is $417,000, the plan would set the purchase limit at $400,000, a 4% decrease. The loan purchase limit will be reduced by the same percentage in other parts of the country. In high-cost areas where the loan limit is currently $625,500, the limit will drop to $600,000 under the proposal.Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, along with the Federal Housing Administration, now own or guarantee about 90% of the new loans originated in the country, which means changes in their policies have a big impact on the mortgage market. Housing lobbyists fear that reducing the size of the loans purchased by Fannie and Freddie may be premature, concerned that the housing recovery is still fragile and lacking certainty that private capital will re-enter the market. But the FHFA clarified that any modifications to loan limits will factor in public inputs. "The contemplated action is a plan and not a final decision. The requested public input will be carefully reviewed before FHFA decides whether and how to proceed with the planned approach to Freddie Mac's and Fannie Mae's loan purchase limits," the regulator said in a statement. The proposed changes will not affect loans originated before Oct 1, 2014. Last week, the FHFA said the agencies would raise the fees charged to lenders for guaranteeing loans, known as g-fee, by an average of 11 basis points. Raising g-fees has been seen as another way to attract competition and reduce the dominance of the government-sponsored enterprises. Still, it is unclear whether the FHFA will move forward on these recent proposals. Last week, the Senate approved the nomination of Mel Watt (D., NC) as head of the FHFA. Watt would be the first permanent director of the regulator since 2009. Unlike the non-partisan acting director Edward DeMarco, who has been focused on contracting the market presence of the agencies, Watt as a Democrat is expected to be slower in raising g-fees or reducing loan limits and more likely to preserve the status quo.
Separately, the FHA also said recently that it would reduce loan limits in high-cost areas from $729,750 to $625,500, in a move to scale back its presence in the housing market.

Oncothyreon Announces Presentation Of PX-866 Clinical Data At American Association Of Clinical Oncology Annual Meeting
Phase 2 Trial of PX-866 in Patients with Glioblastoma Multiforme
Interim data from an open-label single-arm Phase 2 trial of PX-866 in patients with glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), a type of brain cancer, were presented by Marshall W. Pitz, M.D., of CancerCare Manitoba, University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Manitoba. The Phase 2 trial is being conducted at 7 Canadian centers by the NCIC Clinical Trials Group (NCIC CTG), Queen's University in Kingston, Canada, in patients whose brain tumor is in first relapse during or following primary therapy. The trial has a two-stage design, with progression to the second stage dependent upon achieving a pre-specified endpoint of response or lack of early progression.
Seventeen patients were enrolled in the first stage of the trial and were included in this presentation. PX-866 was well-tolerated in the study, with the most common adverse events being diarrhea and reversible liver enzyme elevation. All patients were evaluable for response, with one patient having a partial response and six patients with stable disease, three of whom remained on therapy at the time of the report. These efficacy data met the pre-specified endpoint, and the trial is currently enrolling a planned additional 15 patients in the second stage.
PX-866 Phase 2 Program UpdateIn addition to the above mentioned trial in patients with GBM, the NCIC CTG is also conducting a Phase 2 trial in up to 40 patients with metastatic or recurrent castration resistant prostate cancer who have not received prior chemotherapy. The primary endpoint of this single-arm screening trial is the proportion of patients with lack of disease progression at 12 weeks from the initiation of therapy with PX-866. The trial has a two-stage design, with progression to the second stage dependent upon achieving a pre-specified endpoint of lack of early progression. The trial has completed enrollment in the first stage of the study and the interim analysis is currently pending.
