North Central College student Chloe Boden is one of only 40 applicants nationwide selected to participate in Oxfam America's weeklong CHANGE Initiative to be held in late July in Boston.
Five students in North Central College's Group Process class were recognized for their successful efforts in raising funds for DuPagePads and its Share the Fare campaign.
The mission of The Union is simple: to inspire meaningful social change through the arts. Its core values—being socially conscious, student run, artist friendly, locally rooted—are student-inspired.
Since its May 1, 2005, launch at North Central College, The Union has served as an off-campus venue for emerging and touring artists and a place for all students to hang out. It's remained centered on spiritual reflection and social action, with the goal to unite the campus and community, art and life, and faith and action.
The American Association of University Women (AAUW) Naperville-Area branch has awarded a $750 scholarship to North Central College student Allyson Martens to participate in the National Conference for College Women Student Leaders (NCCWSL) May 28-30 at the University of Maryland near Washington, D.C.
North Central College's new minor in film and screen studies is designed to complement numerous majors and prepare students for a variety of careers.
"Film and screen studies will help students build transferable critical-thinking skills," says Lisa Long, professor of English and chair of the College's Division of Arts and Letters. "It will draw upon traditional theory but help students develop the visual literacy needed in today's world."
North Central College features student actors in the faculty-directed drama "Hedda Gabler" May 7-9.
Four performances of "Hedda Gabler" will be presented at 7:30 p.m. May 7-9 and at 2 p.m. May 9 in the theatre at Meiley-Swallow Hall, 31 S. Ellsworth St. Tickets are $10/adults and $8/students and senior citizens; call the North Central College Box Office at 630-637-SHOW (7469) or visit northcentralcollege.edu/showtix.
Artwork by 10 North Central College art students will be featured in the annual Senior Art Show, May 8 through June 14. Titled "Perspectives," the 2015 Senior Art Show features a diverse body of work.
North Central College students and alumni often say opportunities to study away from campus are among their most memorable moments of college. Twenty-two students who spent a week this spring touring historic sites in the civil rights movement say the Sankofa Experience Verandah course inspired life-changing passion for social justice causes.
North Central College students broadened their skills in event planning, working with professional musicians, music photography and photojournalism during a spring break trip to the South By South West (SXSW) Music Festival in Austin, Texas.
The annual weeklong festival brings in thousands of bands, filmmakers and technicians who present their work in music showcases, screenings and presentations.
North Central's Dyson Wellness Center invites all students, faculty and staff to its Wellness Fair, 11 a.m.-2 p.m. Tuesday, April 21, at the Res/Rec Center. Dyson has partnered with more than 50 community businesses and several College offices and student organizations to promote ways to stay healthy emotionally, spiritually, physically, medically, financially, socially and environmentally.
North Central College prepares students to be informed,
involved, principled and productive citizens and leaders over their lifetime.

Cool Gear to Warm Up on the Pool Deck
As swimmers we choose to expose ourselves to extreme weather conditions in the hopes that all of our hard work will soon pay off. As we tread deeper into the colder seasons, our parkas and warm-ups become vital accessories to keep our bodies warm and insulated. Nobody wants to have chills prior to diving in for a 200-yard swim. For that very reason, the SwimOutlet.com Blog has selected a curated mix of cool (by that we mean hip) and functional products to help warm you up on the pool deck this winter.
First and foremost, you need to dry off. What better way the shed the extra water than with the Speedo Watershed Chamois? This accelerates the drying process and makes packing your swim bag a breeze—which puts you on the fast track to getting warm.
Upon exiting the pool after a nice cool-down, your first reaction is to warm up. The quickest way to heat up after your swim, is to slip on a swim parka. We love the Sporti Solid Parka. With its fleece or faux-fur lining, a parka is a swimmers' most valued piece of gear when the temperature drops.
Underneath the parka, it is equally important to add some layers between you and the face-numbing cold. Our favorite layering piece for the pool deck is a lightweight hoodie, like Speedo's Unisex Pull-over.
Although it is vital to slide into warm clothes pre- and post-race, don't forget your extremities. Being that the feet are among the coldest parts of the human body, you want to make sure that they are bundled up and ready to propel you through your race.
We suggest; 1) cozying up in a pair of comfy socks, like the Sockguy Shark. 2) blockading the cold with boots, like the Speedo Daybreak Boots- which offer a trendy twist to the traditional Ugg boot.
Lastly, you absolutely must top off your winter wardrobe with a hat. Whether you prefer a toasty beanie, a wind-repelling hat, or the hood of your sweatshirt- we recommend you keep your ears warm and your head dry.
So there you have it- the 5 secrets to warm up on deck, so you can heat up the competition in the water. Take the plunge this winter, be bold and fight the cold.Tagged with: #cold weather # swim gear # apparel # warm ups # parkasEmail Address Invalid.

"Voices for Darfur" DVD released in United Kingdom
News Stories, 5 September 2005
LONDON, September 5 (UNHCR) – Nine months ago, a group of artists got together to sing and raise funds for the victims of the Darfur crisis. Today, they've released a DVD featuring the concert as well as exclusive songs and images in support of UNHCR's work in the region.
The new DVD, "Voices for Darfur", was released by EMI today in the United Kingdom. It features artists who took part in the December 8 concert in London, including Yusuf Islam, Chrissie Hynde, Mick Hucknall, Nicole Russo of the Brand New Heavies, Moloko singer Roisin Murphy, Ruthie Henshall, Sir Willard White, and UNHCR's longest-serving Goodwill Ambassador, Barbara Hendricks.
"I hope this will once again show that music has the power to make a difference and save lives," said Antony Costa of Blue, who sang "Moondance" on the DVD.
Sade wrote and recorded her first new track in four years, "Mum", especially for the DVD, accompanied by images from Darfur. David Gray, who had to pull out of the concert due to voice problems, recorded "Ain't No Love" for the DVD.
British band Franz Ferdinand was also unable to attend the concert but provided a song for the evening and donated half of their Mercury Music prize money. Coldplay also contributed generously.
The DVD includes additional backstage footage of all artists expressing their views on the Darfur conflict and explaining their decision to perform for free.
"The crisis in Darfur is the worst I've seen," said the concert's patron, Robin Millar of Whitfield Street Studios. "This DVD continues our efforts for a global campaign to help as best as we can."
Now in stores in the UK, the DVD will be released in the coming weeks in Europe, Australia, the United States and Japan. As with the concert, proceeds from the DVD will go towards helping the displaced people and refugees in Darfur and Chad.
The two-and-a-half-year conflict in the Darfur region of western Sudan has displaced close to 2 million people within Darfur and driven more than 200,000 into neighbouring Chad, where UNHCR has 12 camps to care for the refugees.

Bonga Camp, Ethiopia
Bonga camp is located in the troubled Gambella region of western Ethiopia. But it remains untouched by the ethnic conflicts that have torn nearby Gambella town and Fugnido camp in the last year.
For Bonga's 17,000 Sudanese refugees, life goes on despite rumblings in the region. Refugee children continue with school and play while their parents make ends meet by supplementing UNHCR assistance with self-reliance projects.
Cultural life is not forgotten, with tribal ceremonies by the Uduk majority. Other ethnic communities Shuluks, Nubas and Equatorians are welcome too, judging by how well hundreds of newcomers have settled in after their transfer from Fugnido camp in late 2002.

Southerners on the move before Sudanese vote
Ahead of South Sudan's landmark January 9, 2011 referendum on independence, tens of thousands of southern Sudanese in the North packed their belongings and made the long trek south. UNHCR set up way stations at key points along the route to provide food and shelter to the travellers during their arduous journey. Several reports of rapes and attacks on travellers reinforced the need for these reception centres, where women, children and people living with disabilities can spend the night. UNHCR has made contingency plans in the event of mass displacement after the vote, including the stockpiling of shelter and basic provisions for up to 50,000 people.

South Sudan: Preparing for Long-Awaited Returns
The signing of a peace agreement between the Sudanese government and the army of the Sudanese People's Liberation Movement on 9 January, 2005, ended 21 years of civil war and signaled a new era for southern Sudan. For some 4.5 million uprooted Sudanese – 500,000 refugees and 4 million internally displaced people – it means a chance to finally return home.
In preparation, UNHCR and partner agencies have undertaken, in various areas of South Sudan, the enormous task of starting to build some basic infrastructure and services which either were destroyed during the war or simply had never existed. Alongside other UN agencies and NGOs, UNHCR is also putting into place a wide range of programmes to help returnees re-establish their lives.
These programs include road construction, the building of schools and health facilities, as well as developing small income generation programmes to promote self-reliance.

Cynosure Introduces Enhanced Elite+ And Apogee+ Workstations For Faster Aesthetic Treatments
WESTFORD, Mass., March 15, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Cynosure, Inc. (NASDAQ: CYNO), a leader in laser- and light-based treatments for minimally invasive and non-invasive aesthetic applications, today announced it plans to introduce a speed and power enhancement for two of its most popular multi-purpose systems. The Company expects to launch the Elite™+ and Apogee™+ Aesthetic Workstations at the 70th Annual Meeting of the American Academy of Dermatology March 16-20 in San Diego, California. "With enhanced power, these new workstations can treat 44 percent more area per pulse than our current Elite and Apogee models," said Michael Davin, Cynosure's President and Chief Executive Officer. "The increased speed of treatment translates into higher patient throughput for practitioners and reduced treatment time for patients, while ensuring the safety, comfort and reliability that patients depend on. These next-generation systems demonstrate our focus on delivering innovative technology improvements that enable practitioners to provide the most comprehensive suite of products for applications that are in high demand."Elite+ is a multi-purpose, dual-wavelength system used to remove unwanted hair, treat facial and leg veins and rejuvenate the skin by removing age spots and sun-damage -- all in a single visit. The revolutionary technology of the Elite+ combines two optimal wavelengths in one system: the 755-nm Alexandrite and the 1064-nm Nd:YAG. Practitioners can switch between wavelengths during a single procedure, allowing them to select the most appropriate laser for any hair or skin type. Apogee+ is equipped with a 755-nm Alexandrite laser that permanently removes hair on a wide variety of skin types. In addition, it treats benign epidermal pigmented lesions such as age spots, sunspots and freckles. Current U.S. customers will be able to upgrade their existing Elite and Apogee workstations to the plus versions.

This seems like a fairly straightforward problem, but I'm new to Python and I'm struggling to resolve it. I've got a scatter plot / heatmap generated from two numpy arrays (about 25,000 pieces of information). The y-axis is taken directly from an array and the x-axis is generated from a simple subtraction operation on two arrays.
What I need to do now is slice up the data so that I can work with a selection that falls within certain parameters on the plot. For example, I need to extract all the points that fall within the parallelogram:
I'm able to cut out a rectangle using simple inequalities (see indexing
idx_h and
idx, below) but I really need a way to select the points using a more complex geometry. It looks like this slicing can be done by specifying the vertices of the polygon. This is about the closest I can find to a solution, but I can't figure out how to implement it:
Ideally, I really need something akin to the indexing below, i.e. something like
colorjh[idx]. Ultimately I'll have to plot different quantities (for example,
colorjh[idx] vs
colorhk[idx]), so the indexing needs to be transferable to all the arrays in the dataset (lots of arrays). Maybe that's obvious, but I would imagine there are solutions that might not be as flexible. In other words, I'll use this plot to select the points I'm interested in, and then I'll need those indices to work for other arrays from the same table.
Here's the code I'm working with:
import numpy as np
from numpy import ndarray
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import matplotlib
import atpy
from pylab import *
twomass = atpy.Table()
hmag = list([twomass['h_m']])
jmag = list([twomass['j_m']])
kmag = list([twomass['k_m']])
hmag = np.array(hmag)
jmag = np.array(jmag)
kmag = np.array(kmag)
colorjh = np.array(jmag - hmag)
colorhk = np.array(hmag - kmag)
idx_c = (colorjh > -1.01) & (colorjh < 6) #manipulate x-axis slicing here here
idx_h = (hmag > 0) & (hmag < 17.01) #manipulate y-axis slicing here
idx = idx_c & idx_h
# heatmap below
heatmap, xedges, yedges = np.histogram2d(hmag[idx], colorjh[idx], bins=200)
extent = [yedges[0], yedges[-1], xedges[-1], xedges[0]]
plt.imshow(heatmap, extent=extent, aspect=0.65)
plt.xlabel('Color(J-H)', fontsize=15) #adjust axis labels here
plt.ylabel('Magnitude (H)', fontsize=15)
plt.gca().invert_yaxis() #I put this in to recover familiar axis orientation
plt.title('CMD for Galactic Center (2MASS)', fontsize=20)
Like I say, I'm new to Python, so the less jargon-y the explanation the more likely I'll be able to implement it. Thanks for any help y'all can provide.

Here's Video of Alan Popovsky Showing Off Lincoln's Lascivious Lavatory
This week's City Paper cover story explores the bizarre phenomenon of sexy bathroom artwork in D.C. restaurants. One stop on our tour of the city's most lascivious lavatories: Lincoln restaurant in downtown D.C. Here's the video I mentioned, filmed by the online news service Dining Bisnow, in which proprietor Alan Popovsky shows off the place.

text: OXFORD Both the local and county levels of the American Legions National High School Oratorical Scholarship Program, a Constitutional Speech Contest, were held on Sunday at the Oxford Academy High School auditorium. The event was co-chaired by Dale Dewey and Vic Harmon, both from the Oxford Fort Hill Post #376, and due to their promotion, it yielded a larger than usual turn-out of contestants. Talented speakers received scholarships, but only one Chenango County winner is headed for the Sixth District level.

Marvin Gaye (/ɡeɪ/; born Marvin Pentz Gay Jr.; April 2, 1939 – April 1, 1984) was an American soul singer, songwriter, and musician. Gaye helped to shape the sound of Motown in the 1960s, first as an in-house session player and later as a solo artist with a string of hits, including How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You) and I Heard It Through the Grapevine, and duet recordings with Mary Wells, Kim Weston, and Tammi Terrell, later earning the titles Prince of Motown and Prince of Soul.
Diana Dors (born Diana Mary Fluck; 23 October 1931 – 4 May 1984) was an English actress. She first came to public notice as a blonde bombshell in the style of Marilyn Monroe, as promoted by her first husband Dennis Hamilton, mostly via sex film-comedies and risqué modelling. When it turned out that Hamilton had been defrauding her for his own benefit, she had little choice but to play up to her established image, and she made tabloid headlines with the adult parties reportedly held at her house. Later she showed a genuine talent for TV and cabaret, and gained new popularity as a regular chat-show guest.
Richard Burton, CBE (/ˈbɜːrtən/; 10 November 1925 – 5 August 1984) was a Welsh stage and cinema actor noted for his mellifluous baritone voice and his acting talent.
Jon-Erik Hexum (November 5, 1957 – October 18, 1984) was an American model and actor. He died as a result of an accidental self-inflicted blank cartridge gunshot round to the head on the set of the CBS television series Cover Up in which he played the male lead.

She ran away from her small town in Minnesota and proceeded to appear in over 30 pornographic films, earning up to $100,000 in her two-year career. A drug addict, Grant killed herself after the arrest of her partner in March, 1984. She was inducted into the XRCO Hall of Fame in 1999. She was sometimes credited as Callie Aimes, Callie Aims, or Colleen Applegate.
Peter Sydney Ernest Lawford (born Peter Sydney Ernest Aylen; 7 September 1923 – 24 December 1984) was an English-born American actor.
Johnny Weissmuller (born Johann Peter Weißmüller; June 2, 1904 – January 20, 1984) was an American competition swimmer and actor best known for playing Tarzan in films of the 1930s and 1940s and for having one of the best competitive swimming records of the 20th century. Weissmuller was one of the world's fastest swimmers in the 1920s, winning five Olympic gold medals for swimming and one bronze medal for water polo. He won fifty-two U.S. National Championships, set more than fifty world records (spread over both freestyle and backstroke), and was purportedly undefeated in official competition for the entirety of his competitive career. After retiring from competitions, he became the sixth actor to portray Edgar Rice Burroughs's ape man, Tarzan, a role he played in twelve motion pictures. Dozens of other actors have also played Tarzan, but Weissmuller is by far the best known. His character's distinctive Tarzan yell is still often used in films.
William Horatio Powell (July 29, 1892 – March 5, 1984) was an American actor. A major star at Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, he was paired with Myrna Loy in 14 films, including the popular Thin Man series based on the Nick and Nora Charles characters created by Dashiell Hammett.

Ernest Dale Tubb (February 9, 1914 – September 6, 1984), nicknamed the Texas Troubadour, was an American singer and songwriter and one of the pioneers of country music. His biggest career hit song, "Walking the Floor Over You" (1941), marked the rise of the honky tonk style of music. In 1948, he was the first singer to record a hit version of "Blue Christmas", a song more commonly associated with Elvis Presley and his mid-1950s version. Another well-known Tubb hit was "Waltz Across Texas" (1965) (written by his nephew Quanah Talmadge Tubb (Billy Talmadge)), which became one of his most requested songs and is often used in dance halls throughout Texas during waltz lessons. Tubb recorded duets with the then up-and-coming Loretta Lynn in the early 1960s, including their hit "Sweet Thang". Tubb is a member of the Country Music Hall of Fame.
Ethel Merman (January 16, 1908 – February 15, 1984) was an American actress and singer. Known primarily for her voice and roles in musical theatre, she has been called "the undisputed First Lady of the musical comedy stage."
Jack Leroy "Jackie" Wilson, Jr. (June 9, 1934 – January 21, 1984) was an American soul singer-songwriter and performer. A tenor with a four octave vocal range, he was nicknamed "Mr. Excitement", and was important in the transition of rhythm and blues into soul. He was considered a master showman, and one of the most dynamic and influential singers and performers in R&B and rock 'n' roll history. Gaining fame in his early years as a member of the R&B vocal group Billy Ward and His Dominoes, he went solo in 1957 and recorded over 50 hit singles that spanned R&B, pop, soul, doo-wop and easy listening. This included 16 R&B Top 10 hits, including 6 R&B # 1's. On the Billboard Hot 100, he scored 14 Top 20 Pop hits, 6 of which made it into the Pop Top 10. On September 29, 1975, while headlining a Dick Clark Oldies Concert, he collapsed on stage from what was later determined to be a massive heart attack, and subsequently slipped into a coma slowly awakening over a period of 8 months. He remained semi-comatose for the 9 years until his death in 1984, at the age of 49; he was deemed conscious but incapacitated in early June 1976. Wilson was an inspiration to Elvis Presley, Bruce Springsteen, James Brown and Michael Jackson to name a few. He was one of the most influential artists of his generation.

Andrew Geoffrey "Andy" Kaufman (January 17, 1949 – May 16, 1984) was an American entertainer, actor, and performance artist. While often referred to as a comedian, Kaufman did not consider himself to be one. He disdained telling jokes and engaging in comedy as it was traditionally understood, referring to himself instead as a "song-and-dance man". Pranks and elaborate ruses were major elements of his career. His body of work maintains a cult following and he continues to be respected for his original material, performance style, and unflinching commitment to character.
John Leslie "Jackie" Coogan (October 26, 1914 – March 1, 1984) was an American actor who began his movie career as a child actor in silent films. Charlie Chaplin's film classic The Kid (1921) made him one of the first child stars in film history. Many years later, he became known as Uncle Fester on the 1960s sitcom The Addams Family. In the interim, he sued his mother and stepfather over his squandered film earnings and provoked California to enact the first known legal protection for the earnings of child performers, widely known as the Coogan Act.
François Roland Truffaut (6 February 1932 – 21 October 1984) was a French film director, screenwriter, producer, actor, and film critic, as well as one of the founders of the French New Wave. In a film career lasting over a quarter of a century, he remains an icon of the French film industry, having worked on over 25 films.

At least 20 films and television dramas have been produced of Capote novels, stories, and plays.

I'm lying in bed with my lover when the power goes out. The only light in the room is now coming from the moon's reflection on the snow outside the glass doors. We look at each other, wondering if we caused the outage. We were running a lot of appliances in our room here at Yosemite Falls lodge, we may have blown a fuse.
East Wind blowing today. Expect change soon.
The Winds don't figure much in modern pagan thought or experience, but the ancestors saw it differently.
Born of Earth's dance, the winged Winds, swiftest of gods, are the invisible messengers of the gods, with much to impart to those willing to pay attention.
Here on the edge of the Great Western Prairie, there's nearly always a wind blowing. Around here, stillness is temporary.
It's West Wind who does most of the talking hereabouts. He's a garrulous fellow. West Wind brings us most of our weather and almost all of our rain. If you want to know what the future will bring, look to the West.
We hear a lot from North Wind too, sometimes too much. North Wind means winter, cold and snow. When he and West Wind team up, look out. Better keep that snow shovel handy.
Due to the pressure of work I will be reverting to producing a monthly contribution to Root & Branch and adding the magical lore attached to each of the various trees ...
TREE LORE: - April - Willow Magic
There are several different species of willow but they all have similar medicinal properties and can be used interchangeably in magic. Willows are one of the earliest colonisers of these Islands and it should come as no surprise that it can be found in the Celtic tree alphabet; it is classed as one of the Peasant Trees and bears the name saill. In Celtic times, those wishing to learn eloquence, to be granted visions, prophetic dreams or inspiration, frequented groves of willow. Artists and artisans who learned their craft in willow groves were reputed to be especially skilled.

History changes, I'm telling you. OK, the things that actually happened way-back-when don't really change, but our interpretation of them sure does. It's amazing how much our understanding of ancient Minoan culture has changed in the century or so since Sir Arthur Evans first uncovered the ruins of the temple complex at Knossos.
For instance, Evans was caught up in the ancient Egypt craze that had been bubbling along for decades as early archaeologists began uncovering Egyptian artifacts and translating Egyptian hieroglyphic texts. He considered Egypt to be the high civilization of the ancient world. So when he discovered that the Minoans - who flourished at about the same time as Old and Middle Kingdom Egypt - had complex architecture, paved roads, enclosed sewers, and other markers of a 'proper' civilized society, he assumed they had borrowed it all wholesale from Egypt....

Players are scared #$%$. Late Tues morning time to jump in. Everyone is wrong. There is no major financial news after Fed is finished until March. Nothing left to be afraid of. Gold will drift up up up. I think it will start before Fed announcement not after and players will follow the the mo. NUGT looks like a sure 7.55 now maybe even a little less Tues morning. However I will be happy with 7.55. Best gold stock now is IAG. It is way down (under book value) because of its mines in Mali. But AlQaeda is being smashed and French will be permanently stationed there with our drone support. Their big money maker in Africa is just to the south in Burkina Faso. A sort of Republic that has a very pro-western President, that will win for life. Beaten down much to much because mines in Mali just a small amount of their total production. They say 875000- 900,000ozs in 2013. I say more because with rising price they will over produce and they can if they want to. Closed at 8.39 Friday. Might go under 8 by Tues morning. This truly would be stealing money. If gold goes back to even 1730 or 1740 IAG will double so fast your head will spin. The company has big influence with French Gov. Giant mine in SA is in French Guiana. They are a very big employer there. next week should be a lot of fun goldwise.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
IAG has mines in Mali?!! You gotta be dreamin' thinking that Al Qaeda will not be a problem in Mali for years to come.
Just a difference of opinion..Read what i said and then tell me where you disagree and why...
Funny that you're talking about IAG, I went all in on Friday (some in MUX too). I'm hoping to get a quick bounce with IAG in the next few months, outperforming TC, and then switching everything back to TC before MM starts production. But there's probably much more bleeding coming up in the short term.
Price per book for IAG is 0.89, price per book for TC is 0.38. Now, think, which is the better value?
mining equities all got whacked big time 25 Jan including GDXY, HUI, XAU, CDE, SLW ------ ???? harbinger of PM volatility to come ???? ----------- TC, however remains like a day at a Caribbean beach ---- lazy, warm, peaceful, sunny with trade winds and the tide coming in slow, but very sure /// :O)

How An Offset Account Works
For those considering paying their home or investment property loans off faster, then an offset account is definitely a feature you may want to consider adding to your mortgage loan.
Offset accounts were originated after borrowers who had Lines of Credit types of loans became disillusioned with their use, because of the temptation of over spending.
Lines of Credit only require you to make interest only repayments, or worse yet, in some instances you didn't have to make any repayments at all. You could (and still can) just let the interest capitalise back up to the approved limit.
In contrast, Mortgage Offset Accounts do actually require you to make a principal and interest or an interest only repayment on a regular basis.
In simplistic terms the way they work is, in addition to your loan account you have an additional transaction account alongside your mortgage account into which you deposit your money.
And any balance that is in the offset account on a day to day basis automatically offsets against your mortgage balance. In other words, if you have $6,000 in your mortgage offset account and a $400,000 mortgage that you're paying interest on, then the $6,000 offsets againts the $400,000 and you only pay interest on $394,000.
If you would like to access information on a Mortgage Offset Calculator for use in calculating the savings on your mortgage please follow this link: Offset Calculator
This money can be the normal cash flow from your salary/s and also any other money you have access to such as existing savings. Or, even one off payments to you such as proceeds from the sale of a car etc. that you only want to temporarily put somewhere for later use.
Today's Mortgage Offset transaction accounts harness the benefits of modern home loan technology, which calculates the interest daily on the balance of your home loan and then charges it to your home loan account monthly in arrears.
If you don't already have one, consider refinancing your existing home loan and start saving.
So, it tracks all of your deposits and withdrawals on a daily basis and automatically calculates your loan balance and any offsets against it.
The Offset Account works like a savings account, with one big difference, in that any balance in it, offsets against the mortgage balance.
For example let's assume John and Mary have a $400,000 mortgage and in another account somewhere they've stashed away $20,000. If they transfer the $20,000 into the Offsetting account, it will then offset against the $400,000 mortgage balance.
Which means instead of the bank calculating and charging them interest on $400,000 they will only calculate the interest on $380,000.
Additionally John and Mary can also pay their regular salary's into this account with no loss of convenience.
Because, as we mentioned previously, it operates just like any regular transaction account by having internet and phone banking, ATM and Eftpos access as well as B-Pay features etc all attached to it.
You do this by using an interest free credit card and putting most of your regular monthly expenses onto it, so you don't have to draw down on the money you've deposited into the Offset Account during the month. This leaves the balance in the account as high as possible for as long as possible (remember we said they calculate the interest on the mortgage's daily balance, including allowing for any offsets).
Then you arrange with your lender to have an automatic electronic sweep set up that will sweep any balance you've accumulated on the interest free credit card during the month back into your Offsetting transaction Account, which means you won't carry any credit card balances forward each month.
But, you've been able to use the banks money interest free all month, while your money has been offsetting against your mortgage and saving you even more money.
Albert einstein has been rumoured to have said that compound interest is the most powerful force in the universe. We all know banks have known this for years. Why not get it to work for you?
In the meantime, the money you would normally have drawn out of your account to pay your regular daily running expenses during any monthly period has been at work for you in the Offsetting Account saving you additional interest on your home loan.
Most home loan lenders offer Mortgage Offset Accounts, but in the main there are a few conditions attached. Normally you have to qualify for what is known as the variable interest rate professional packages of these lenders. And, this is where you have to borrow a certain amount of money, usually $250,000 and more, although there are exceptions to this rule.
These professional package type loans offer a discount off of the lenders market variable rate and the size of the discount can depend on the size of the loan.
Also, with these types of professional package loans there are usually annual fees charged for the privilege, but no monthly fees. However, if you use the offset facility efficiently it will more than compensate you for any fees charged by the lender.
Another consideration to take into account is that not all of these Offset Accounts offered by lenders are the same, as some operate more efficiently than others.
At the end of the day, if you're keen on paying your home loan off as fast as possible you should endeavour to utilise every tool you can. Because, your owner occupier home loan is non-tax deductible debt, which you pay off with your after tax dollars.
For example if you had a home loan of $420,000 that had an average interest rate over the life of the loan of 7.25% and you paid that off over thirty years you would end up paying principal and interest payments totalling $1,031,450 to the lender .
Then, if you calculated how much you had to earn to get those after tax dollars to give to the bank to pay off your home loan, then you start to realise why most of us can sometimes feel we're trying to ride our bike uphill without the chain being attached when it comes to paying a mortgage off.

What is this strange looking thing?
Would you like your egg hard or soft boiled?
She floats!
I hope that Wooden Whale doesn't try to mate with her!
Ah, she heard me.
Will cocktails be served?
Permission to come aboard the Egg, Sir!
Reclaimed red cedar strip planking was used on the exterior shell.
Sleeping on a hammock like a real sailor!
Now that's something you don't see everyday: A giant floating egg! Yes, Virginia. The British are a little different from you and me. Not only are they super competive, they're very eccentric. Thank God! We need a little more levity in this seemingly sour world.
"Created by Stephen Turner, the Exbury Egg will be a temporary, energy efficient self-sustaining work space for artist Stephen Turner in the estuary of the River Beaulieu. It is a place to stay and a laboratory for studying the life of a tidal creek, a collecting and collating centre with integral storage & display areas. It will take on the patina of 730 daily tides below the water line, and 365 days of weathering by wind, rain and bleaching by the sun above."

A competitive approach to sailing: above all, speed. Relatively small, overcanvassed and overpowered boats, suffering notorious lack of stability, dominate the contemporary racing scene. - C. A. Marchaj
Maybe I should rethink the whole spot boat thing and stick with my orginal idea of building an outrigger sailing canoe.

She sails.
She surfs! (This caught my eye.)
She has a nice cockpit.
She comes apart.
Bring her along with you on that cruise across the Pacific.
Throw her into the back of your truck.
Keep her in your side yard or if you live in an apartment, the front closet.
Eleven feet of fun.
Do you want to get more people involved in sailing? This could be the ticket.

TECHNE Il concorso Mille e una vela per l'Università, indetto da Roma Tre con l'intento di coin- volgere gli atenei italiani, nasce per "sotto- lineare il ruolo formativo dell'esercizio fisi- co non solo come aspetto complementare a quello intellettuale…, ma soprattutto come indispensabile catalizzatore di rapporti so- ciali, capaci di promuovere e sviluppare soli- darietà nella realtà internazionale e multiet- nica del mondo universitario". In fase di progetto si è cercato il giusto compromesso tra propensione alla planata, governabilità, stabilità e riduzione degli at- triti: uno skiff spiccatamente planante, che richiede un equipaggio esperto, con le linee d'acqua della carena studiate per staccare prima possibile lo scafo dall'acqua, carat- terizzate da una leggera V nell'estremità di prua, a forma quasi piatta e spigolo di separazione fra la carena e le fiancate dalla deriva a poppa, minima superficie bagnata, sezione massima piuttosto spostata verso poppa, specchio di poppa troncato in modo netto, coperta che non intralci i movimenti repentini dell'equipaggio in regata, terrazze sporgenti di quasi mezzo metro. Le regate si sono svolte dal 21 al 23 settem- bre 2007. Il Politecnico di Milano si è ag- giudicato il trofeo con le due imbarcazioni al primo e secondo posto davanti a quelle degli Atenei di Bologna, Firenze, Roma e Venezia. L'evento sportivo è stato affiancato dalla mostra-concorso "Progettare una barca". Al progetto Polis & Techně sono stati at- tribuiti: "Premio per la migliore interpretazione del tema progettuale" "Premio per la migliore rappresentazione grafica del progetto"
Who was that masked man anyway?Oh yeah, you can build the little filly pictured above at home. It costs 200 € for the plans.

Remembering Dave Keiper and WILLIWAW...[29 Mar 00] I was lucky enough in life to have sailed with Dave Keiper in the summer of 1971 on the most incredible boat I have ever sailed on. We were anchored in the middle of Hanalei Bay on the island of Kauai when Dave came in and dropped anchor. We had seen WILLIWAW flying around Waikiki a month or so before and were surprised to see her here. I had sailed over with a man named Gordy Gladson on his tri, and as all trimaran sailors in those days knew each other, we swam over to have a visit . Of course Dave (most gracious) had to show off the boat. We put out to sea in about a 15 knot trade wind on a beam reach. The boat started heeling like a monohull, and then the foils got a bite and the boat came up out of the water and accelerated like a car...what a rush!!! The boat was so fast and stable Dave could walk away from the tiller and she would run like she was on rails. This was truly one of the most memorable days of my sailing life of 35 years. .... -- Jim Wrenn

Many of you know that I have a special place in my heart for skiffs. Some critics, OLE, look at these as not being boats. Okay, I concede that you aren't going to take your Aunt Martha fishing on it, but what a rocket! A big plus for me is that this boat can be built at home.
The new R Class hull designed by Dan Leech.
Here she is ready to go.
The new lady is introduced to her admiring public. She seems to be watching her weight coming in at a mere 29kg. Atkins? South Beach? Nope, Kiwi!
Sorry Aunt Martha, you can't come!
Look at her go! She makes me weak in the knees, how abou you?.

Semirings of functions determine finite topologies

Abstract: An analogue of the Stone-Gelfand-Kolmogoroff theorem for compact Hausdorff spaces is proven for finite topological spaces. Let be the semiring of continuous functions from finite X into Z, the nonnegative integers with open sets of the form . Products and sums in are defined pointwise. Denote the set of nonzero semiring homomorphisms of into Z by and give it the compact-open topology where is considered discrete. Then (1) X and are homeomorphic.

Just six days after they opened for business, many Colorado marijuana shops say the demand for recreational pot is so high they have to ration the amount they sell customers to avoid selling out.
At a downtown Denver dispensary, the Lodo Wellness Center on Wazee Street, the owner is limiting customers to an eighth of an ounce, even though it's legal for Colorado residents to purchase a full ounce.
"I expected to have some business," said Linda Andrews, owner of Lodo Wellness Center. "I didn't expect it to be that big."
Lodo Wellness Center's edibles supplier, Elixirs and Edibles, is also having trouble keeping up.
"We thought we had enough supply to get us through January," said a spokesman for Elixirs and Edibles. "We ran out in three days."

More than 2,000 people were lacing up their shoes at the crack of dawn for the 31st Annual Turkey Trot.
Runners had the chance to compete in either a 5, 10, or 15k race, and it's all for a good cause.
Proceeds go to local charities, including The Refuge House and The Shelter.
"It feels good, feels good to be done. I was thinking I was gonna sleep in, but I thought, no, I can't do that, so it's fun. And now we get to go home with our families and it's relaxing," said Sarah Doctor-Williams, a participant.
Runners said participating in the "Turkey Trot" makes them feel less guilty when it comes time to stuff their faces with all the Thanksgiving fixings.

WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama says U.S. businesses are looking for quick passage of immigration reform as he pushes Congress to act by the end of the year.
Obama met with CEOs at the White House Tuesday to pressure the Republican-controlled House to pass legislation overhauling the nation's immigration system.
Obama said some "unlikely bedfellows" are supporting immigration reform from the liberal and conservative side. The U.S. Chamber is sending 50 small business owners to meet with lawmakers Tuesday, while the AFL-CIO planned Wednesday to announce new political actions to push for passage.
The Senate has already passed Obama-backed legislation that would secure borders and provide a road to citizenship for 11 million immigrants who entered the country illegally.
Republican leaders have said they prefer a piecemeal approach to the legislation.
