The Canadian Association of Accredited Mortgage Professionals (CAAMP) was in Ottawa twice these past four weeks. Its missions: to share mortgage market data with policy-makers, support consumer access to more mortgage options and keep issues facing mortgage brokers front and centre. CAAMP President & CEO Jim Murphy, along with Government Relations Chair Eddy Cocciollo and Chief Economist Will Dunning, met with both the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada (FCAC) and the Conservative Housing Caucus, where CAAMP presented its latest research and housing numbers to 20 MPs.

The Latest on Street's bank application
Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00
Street Capital, the broker channel's #3 lender in market share, updated the industry on its bank licence application Wednesday, essentially saying there's not much to report. Its comments came as part of the 2014 year-end financial release from its parent company, Counsel Corp. (TSX:CXS) "We do not want our stakeholders to draw any conclusions regarding the application process from the fact that no announcement has been made regarding receipt of Letters Patent to date," Allan Silber, Chairman and CEO of Counsel Corporation, said in the company's release. Street Capital, which commands about 10% of the broker market (according to D+H's latest figures), first applied to operate READ MORE

Broker Market Share – Q4 2014
Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00
We just got our paws on year-end market share data for lenders in the broker channel. One stat jumped out in big neon lights. According to D+H data obtained from a source, the mortgage broker channel funded about 25% more volume in the fourth quarter of 2014 than one year prior. That's a massive swing. What accounts for this surge, we can only speculate. Playing at least some role is the fact that broker rates were exceptional vis-à-vis the banks. Just as notable, banks took only 33.6% of the broker market in Q4. That's down from 51.8% three years ago, when CIBC READ MORE

Maria LevesqueDefense Counterintelligence and Human Intelligence CenterDefense Intelligence Agency
When charged with shifting key technology to a private cloud and meeting objectives for reducing the number of federal data centers, Maria Levesque saw an opportunity to streamline complex communications systems.
She designed and deployed a wide-area network optimization project to 50 locations worldwide, and she did it in a record 120 days. The project yielded major efficiencies without costly bandwidth upgrades and enabled faster fielding of data-heavy, multimedia IT applications to remote locations that previously would have required expensive, complicated infrastructure improvements.
"Maria accomplished something believed to be undoable given the constraints, timelines and organizational adversity," said Michael Mestrovich, DIA's senior technology officer for innovation and CIO. "Maria's project directly impacts warfighters, analysts and other mission partners at remote sites, including Iraq and Afghanistan."

Thanks for visiting my blog! Please contact me if you're thinking about purchasing a Mercedes-Benz in the
Atlanta area.
In the Atlanta area they are always adding or modifying roads so it's good that Mercedes-Benz has just released updated navigation disks. You can order these disks from your local Mercedes-Benz parts department. They should cost $249. You can also order them directly from Mercedes at www.navigation.com/mbupdate (this site's search isn't working at the time I'm writing this) or by calling (888)628-4483.
There are several reasons to update your navigation disk:
- Every year thousands of miles of new roads are added.
- Hundreds of Points of Interest are added or deleted.
- Improved routing efficiency can save you time and fuel.
Mercedes has been making some changes to the 2010 C-Class options and packages to make it a better value and respond to the demands of the market.
Originally, Mercedes had announced that COMAND with navigation (512) could be ordered without the Multimedia Package (320). Then, due to factory constraints, that was dropped at the end of April and all vehicles that had been ordered with COMAND with navigation (518) were changed to Multimedia Package (320).
Now, Mercedes is changing the Multimedia Package (320) to reduce the cost of the package. So, the new Multimedia Package (320) will include
Voice Control (396)
COMAND with Navigation (512)
iPod/MP3 Interface (518)
Media Interface Consumer Cables (049)
The harman kardon (810) 450 watt sound system was dropped from the package and is now available as a stand alone option. Ordering Multimedia Package (320) also requires that either the Premium 1 Package (P01) or Sirius Satellite Radio (536) are ordered on the vehicle.
So, there you go. If you have a 2010 C-Class on order you might want to check with your dealership and see how it is currently equipped and if there are any changes you need to make to have it turn out like you expected.
This adaptor has been a little hard to find for some of my clients. Luckily, Mercedes has come out with their own. Called the PCMCIA Multi-Card Reader, it is priced at $102 and the part number is 6-7-82-3974. You should be able to order one from your local parts department.
A quick Google search will come up with cheaper readers that are meant to do the same thing, but these are meant to work with laptops and aren't guaranteed to work with your car like the Mercedes version is. Also, I haven't personally tested the Mercedes adapter with the larger SDHC cards so it may not read those.
A customer e-mailed me last week to ask if the iPhone cradle they saw on Ebay would work in their car. Even though I had written about this part when Mercedes announced it I had never actually used one. I had my parts department order one for me and was able to test it today.
This cradle is designed to plug into the MHI port in most 2007-2008 vehicles and the 2009 S and CL. Any car that would use a bluetooth adaptor, what I call a "puck," could use this cradle. This cradle is NOT compatible with the 3G iPhone. The 3G iPhone is too wide to fit into the cradle. There is a rumor of a 3G version but it doesn't seem to be avaliable in the US yet. So, you plug the cradle into the car, synch the bluetooth and you now have a bluetooth adaptor that will also charge your iPhone as opposed to the normal puck that does not charge your iPhone. That seems to be the main benefit.
The instruction booklet also states that "If your vehicle is equipped with an iPod Integration Kit, it is possible to access the iPod functions of the iPhone in the cradle via the COMAND system…after an additional connection between the cradle and the iPod Integration Kit has been installed. A competent installation by a qualified specialist workshop must be performed for the connection of the iPhone Cradle to the iPod Interface Kit." What that means is that you can't just plug it in and start using it as both the phone and the iPod. You would have to take it out of the cradle and plug it into the kit to play music unless you pay the labor (and parts?) at the shop for them to re-wire it.
Also, I thought the plug on the side of the cradle (show above on the left) looked familiar. It is the same plug that the Multimedia Interface Cable or iPod/MP3 Adaptor Cable uses to plug into 2009 vehicles with the NTG 2.5 COMAND system (2009 ML, GL, R, E, SL, SLK). If you unplug the Multimedia Interface Cable and plug in the iPhone cradle you can access the iPod functionality of the iPhone and stay connected via bluetooth (shown below). This is not an improvement. You can already plug the iPhone directly into the Multimedia Interface Cable and do the same thing. The instruction booklet makes no mention of this extra cord on the side. Strange.
So, in summary… You cannot use this accessory with the 3G iPhone. You cannot use it with a 2008 or 2009 C-Class (no MHI). It is pretty useless for a 2009 ML, GL, R, E, SL and SLK. If you use an iPhone and would like it to charge in the car and you drive a 2007-2009 S or CL or a 2007-2008 E, ML, GL, or SL you might like it. Please consult with your parts department to definitely determine compatibility.
If you have a lease, pre-pay though the end of the lease. They have lots of packages available. In general, the longer term you sign up for, the cheaper it gets per month. And, if you cancel the subscription early Sirius will apply the unused portion to your next subscription. When you purchase a new Mercedes it's also a good plan to purchase and extended pre-paid plan at the time you take delivery so that they can apply your 6 months base service as a credit toward you pre-paid plan. If you plan to keep the car for many years the best value may be the Lifetime Subscription. It's $399 and will stay with the vehicle forever!

I am not an iPod user so my knowledge of this subject is limited. However, I know that many of you are as passionate about your iPhone as you are about your Mercedes-Benz.
The new MultiMedia Interface cable in the 2009 vehicles has been a wonderful upgrade for interfacing with iPods and iPhones. It is very easy to access folders and artists right from the main command screen. A problem with the system has been that when you plug in your 3G iPhone it gives a message that it is incompatible and unable to charge. According the to Apple website this error will probably also happen with 4th generation iPod Nano and 2nd generation iPod Touch devices.
From – Benzworld.org Forum Post
The UMI gives non-multimedia cars navigation, live traffic, ipod adaptor, usb port and bluetooth music streaming. It can be installed at the dealership for about $1850. If you know you want this option you can now order your car with it and it will be installed at the Vehicle Preparation Center (VPC) before it is shipped to the dealership. The VPC installation reduces the labor cost which is why it is less expensive when you order it than when you add it later.
Our dealership just installed our first Universal Media Interface (UMI) system in a 2009 C300. I had been reading about this sytem but it seemed to good to be true. Now that I have had a chance to try it out, I am very impressed.
#1 – Navigation – The map data and entry system is very similar to what is in all of our other vehicles. It is displayed, in color, on the standard audio 5″ screen. It was just as easy to use as the other systems and looks good.
#4 – USB Port – Yeah! Good quality sound for those of us who use a non-iPod MP3 player. It is easily accessed in the glove box right next to the iPod adaptor.
#5 – AUX jack – In case you have some other form of audio you want to connect to the vehicle you can use an 3.5mm male to male audio cable to connect.
#6 – Bluetooth Audio Streaming – For those of you who want to beam stereo music directly from your phone using A2DP. The connection process is very similar to connecting your phone via bluetooth to the car and the audio quality is excellent! This is the first time this has been offered in any of our models!
— Update — Read my new post on MHI as a factory option.
Don't expect to see a convertible or an optional skate park package when the 2010 GLK350 gets here, but at the SEMA show anything is possible.
Legendary Motor Cars – Mobile skate park
Brabus Widestar – Definitely the best looking out of the group and probably the only one that you'll actually be able to buy.
RENNTech Pikes Peak – Nice wing… RENNTech should probably just stick to drivetrain upgrades.
