Rebuilding credit: NYTimes article
I thought this article might be of use to some folks. You might have to register for the full article, but the NYTimes does not spam and is free. I've been a subscriber for years.
February 18, 2011 NYTimes
Healing a Wounded Credit Score
(Excerpt only) Millions of consumers have fallen out of favor with the credit scoring gods. Some lost their jobs or were just overwhelmed by mounting debt. Others got caught up in the real estate bubble or had major medical bills.
Whatever the reason, the rising number of foreclosures, short sales, late credit card payments and the ultimate credit sin � bankruptcies � have left black marks on credit reports most everywhere.
So what can these people do to repair their credit?
The simple answer is to focus on the information that is used to generate the all-powerful FICO score � the measure used most frequently by traditional lenders to determine creditworthiness. Its scale runs from 300 points to 850 points; the higher the score, the better your credit standing. "FICO is still the 500-pound gorilla," said John Ulzheimer, president of consumer education at SmartCredit.com. "In 2011, the best way to get credit from the mainstream lenders is to have a good FICO score."
Consumers can hope that the banks will eventually consider alternatives to the traditional FICO score, which was developed by Fair Isaac Corporation and has been in wide use for about two decades. After all, as banks regain their appetite for lending, they will be looking for ways to differentiate between borrowers with the same scores, some of whom are temporarily struggling and others who chronically have trouble with money.
For now, though, the FICO score reigns. The best antidote to a poor score is time. Still, there are a half dozen ways to speed the process, or, at the least, avoid even more credit trouble.
Here is a link that might be useful: Full article: How to heal your credit score
Adding a post so that this will eventually scroll off. The NYTimes, as of March 28th, 2011, has gone to a subscription service for online access. The link should still work, but if you access more than 15 articles in a month the website will request you select a payment option before allowing access to the 16th request.

Are aviation events storm ready?
Amidst this year's airshow season and continuing extreme/destructive weather, I wonder if aviation events are fully prepared. The National Weather Service's Storm Ready program can help event organizers minimize weather catastrophes like 2011's SUN 'n FUN tornado or the multi-fatality Indiana State Fair stage collapse. But how many fly-ins and airshows are so prepared?
Keeping the spirit of flight alive
Story and Photos By JEAN-PIERRE BONIN
I like to call myself an aviation freak.
Though I never became a pilot, I have been an aviation lover since I was a teenager, but it was not until some decades later that I stumbled into general aviation. In 2000, a neighbor began building a Ultravia Pelican Sport 600 kit plane in his garage and that was the start of a whole new era for me.
From an aircraft photographer, attempting, like others, to upload some pictures to websites like Airliners.net, I slowly began to widen my interest (and contacts), making me a more complete aviation photographer. Through the last 10 years or so, I have witnessed the true Spirit of Flight as pilots, owners, mechanics and just "plane" volunteers have shared their passion with me.
New app connects pilots to aviation events

Great song , Great Author. I'd love to hear more of this
Rated 5 / 5 stars
I always like it when people incorporate piano in their metal or rock songs... it just adds that little something that the song needs to bring it to life. This was really well done! :) for future songs, maybe you could try throwing some dramatic sounding violins, too.
It might just be me, but I could see this being used as a boss theme in an RPG game haha. Keep at the good work!
Well yes.
The violins are here not that strong as usually in my songs, you're right.
But actually i need some differences between my songs else they would all sound the same = lame.
As a boss theme?
Mh, pretty interesting.
Didn't even think about that, yet.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Really nice metal song. May I ask what software did you use to compose the song, or just live recording?
If you're interested, i'll tell you the whole setup via PM.
Thanks anyways ;)
Rated 5 / 5 stars
sounds like Acid Bath - Jezebel to me :)
What? :O
Those are two totally different songs in my opinion ;o
But thanks anyways for listening (;
Rated 5 / 5 stars
I love these powerful Riffs. And the cooperation with the Piano was fantastic.
I'd like to hear more like this.
Powerfull riffs and melodic piano = awesome symphonic metal and that's always my goal!
Thank you :)

There's been a lot of casting rumours bouncing around the web in regards to the muscle-doused sequel to "The Expendables". Today, a confirmation. A lock. A signing. A sure thing. One y'all can run with. Take to the bank. Put it in the garden shed. Yank it from Pauly Shore's hair. Done deal.
Martial-arts Superstar Scott Adkins has been signed to play Jean-Claude Van Damme's henchman in "The Expendables 2″.
That's now happening. Adkins and JC work well together (projection booths are still cooling down following "Assassination Games", the two-hander they shared a one-sheet on this year) but more so, the former is an amazing sportsman and a pretty darn fine actor to boot. Check out the "Undisputed" movies – superb showreel for Adkins; not surprised at all "Expendables 2″ star Sly Stallone and director Simon West ("Con-Air") offered him a seat on that Bulgaria-bound flight.

Regional overview
Regional overview
Chinese demand during the third quarter was weak and this led sellers to seek netbacks in Singapore and southeast Asia, which resulted in an excess of cargoes in that region for the August to early September period.
Spot daily prices fell to a 10-month low on 1 August and they were at $1,007-1,009/tonne on an FOB (free on board) Singapore basis, on the back of poor demand from blenders. This is because blenders expected that gasoline demand will fall in August and were trying to avoid stocking up on MTBE inventories. Subsequently, prices fell further on 4 August to below $1,000/tonne FOB Singapore because of increased supply.
However, prices then rebounded, supported by a sudden issue at a southeast Asia plant. The demand for gasoline in September within southeast Asia, Pakistan and India also rose and this further increased the incentive for blending, strengthening blenders' demand for MTBE.
Despite the narrower price gap between the different RON gasoline types, blenders said that naphtha prices were still reasonable for them to consider using MTBE to blend higher RON gasoline.
Overall, supply became tighter in September because of the plant issue in southeast Asia and limited spot availability from other producers. This forced some buyers to increase their bids. CFR (cost & freight) Singapore buying indications rose from a $15-17/tonne premium to around a $21-23/tonne premium to FOB Singapore quotes.

The day we went to the zoo just happened to be buy one get one Sunday so it was super economical. Not sure how often that special is offered. We arrived at the zoo around 3:30 and it seemed all the animals were just waking from there afternoon naps and were ready to entertain there guests! We had a great time watching the apes, monkeys, and gorillas as they were all very active. Also loved the peacocks that hang out around the "grass" area. At this time of day the crowds were thinning and it was very easy to get around. I would recommend this zoo if you have a couple extra hours in town with or without kids - definitely worth it.
