AUSTIN, Texas, Dec. 14, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Big data Platform-as-a-Service provider Infochimps (Infochimps.com) today announced the Infochimps Enterprise Cloud, a network of big data-focused data centers and system integrators, which, combined with its big data cloud services, allows enterprises to quickly and simply deploy elastic big data solutions in public, virtual private and private clouds. With a network of data center partners such as Switch, and an emerging group of big data system integrators such as Think Big Analytics, Infochimps is helping large enterprises with large data sets address large challenges. The Infochimps Enterprise Cloud greatly reduces the risk, time-to-value and complexity of enterprise big data projects, allowing companies to focus on answering their most important questions without having to worry about the underlying technology, or make a significant investment of time or capital.

No Migration Required
Infochimps will bring big data computing power to enterprise data, foregoing migration to a public cloud and instead deploying either within a virtual private cloud infrastructure through a network of Tier 4 data center providers, or through a private cloud within the company's own data center.
"Migrating enterprises' enormous volumes of data to the public cloud is slow, expensive and risk-laden -- a major barrier to deriving benefits from big data," said Jim Kaskade, CEO, Infochimps. "The Infochimps Enterprise Cloud allows companies to sidestep this migration, as well as a large upfront investment, and quickly begin enjoying those benefits. At any scale, we reduce the typical 18-24 month project cycles to 30 days."
Infochimps swiftly ties together data from Hadoop, NoSQL, real-time analytics and every other desired source, and seamlessly integrates it with enterprises' existing environment.
Access to a Deep Pool of Managed Services Resources
In addition to eliminating the complexity in big data projects, the Infochimps Enterprise Cloud will enable enterprises to access a wide range of both Infochimps' own managed services and combined offerings from its network of data center providers, each of which operates an ecosystem of cloud services.
"Until now enterprises have been hamstrung by the need to bring their data to the apps -- Infochimps has removed this barrier by creating an ecosystem that enables enterprises to deploy data-driven applications where their data resides, opening the doors to limitless possibilities," said Kaskade.
Technology-neutrality Offers Freedom of Choice, and Freedom from Confusion
Infochimps doesn't require a lock-in to any particular technology (proprietary or open source) -- solutions will be tailored to the needs and preferences of its customers' applications.
"We've worked with the top big data system integrators to tailor services that guarantee fast value from big data technology using our cloud service," said Kaskade. "The Infochimps Enterprise Cloud offers both freedom of choice, and freedom from the confusion of an overabundance of options. The comprehensiveness of the big data offerings within the Infochimps Enterprise Cloud means that enterprises can choose a particular configuration or be as hands-off as they want. Either way, they'll get exactly what they need from their data."
Infochimps' Ironfan, which powers the Infochimps Enterprise Cloud, also provides the core of VMware's Project Serengeti, bringing the speed, availability, resource optimization, elasticity, and secure multi-tenancy of cloud infrastructure to Hadoop. Additionally, Infochimps uses Ironfan to power a version of its cloud service on OpenStack.

In addition to all the benefits, IoT is also bringing new kind of customer experience challenges - cars that unlock themselves, thermostats turning houses into saunas and baby video monitors broadcasting over the internet. This list can only increase because while IoT services should be intuitive and simple to use, the delivery ecosystem is a myriad of potential problems as IoT explodes complexity. So finding a performance issue is like finding the proverbial needle in the haystack.

Using your service was a great way to start our vacation, knowing that our groceries essentials were taken care of, and we can proceed to enjoy our time at Disney. Thanks for your great service!
Great customer service!
THE most excellent, cost effective and convenient service available to augment your Disney Vacation. We literally saved hundreds of dollars in food and beverage costs by bringing our delivered grocery items into the park with us. All Disney Parks permits outside food and beverages to be brought into the facilities. We ate portable breakfasts (smoothies, granola bars, and fruit) at the bus stop on the way to the parks which saved time and money. We packed PB&J's for lunches and snacks and brought our own water bottles which we refilled from fountains in the park. Any family should take advantage of this highly reliable, professional, and amazing service!!!!!

Police have released pictures of a man sought in connection with a mobile phone theft on a train from West Croydon.
The thief snatched the phone, a black iPhone 4S worth up to £450, from the hands of a 25-year-old man on an Overground service to Dalston Junction.
He then ran off the train as the doors were closing at Honor Oak Park station.
The theft happened on Friday, November 15 at around 4.10pm.
Det Cons Mark Agrippa, of British Transport Police said, explained: "The passenger was on his phone on the train when a man approached and snatched it from his hand.
"He then left the train at Honor Oak Park as the doors were closing and the victim was not able to follow him."
He added: "In the time since the offence took place, numerous enquiries have taken place to identify the person responsible, including liaising with local police and viewing CCTV from the station.
"I'm now appealing for the public's help to identify the man in these images as I believe he will have information vital to this investigation.
"I would also like to ask any witnesses who saw what took place to come forward as a matter of urgency."
Anyone with information is asked to contact British Transport Police on freephone 0800 40 50 40 or text 61016, quoting reference LSA/B7 of 16/01/14. You can also call the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

Ultimately dissapointing,
Verified Purchase(What is this?)
This review is from: Basic Critical Theory for Photographers (Paperback)
This book takes several of the key texts on photography and attempts to distil out the key points in easy to understand language. It fails. The aim is worthy but it just does not work. Essentially the book contains the sort of notes you would make if you were going through the original texts yourself. But like notes you make on books or lectures, they don't really elucidate anyone other than yourself. You have to have read the originals to understand the notes. Large parts of the original text are merely copied verbatim so difficult concepts are merely repeated rather than explained. A futher major deficit is the absence of photographs that the original texts refer to (and are included in the original). Having bought most of the texts the author refers to and found many extremely difficult to understand I found it frustrating having continuously to have to refer back to the originals to have a second attempt at undertanding what they were getting at. Two of the texts that are covered are books by Szarkowski and Shore. Both are very short, richly illustrated and very easy to understand. Annotating these without the illustrations is a pointless excercise. Similalry John Berger's book is a short classic that needs no clarification it is so well written. The best part of the book is the excercises the author sets at the end of each chapter. You would need years to complete them but they are nevertheless interesting to contemplate. For a far better book on critical theory I thoroughly recommend Terry Barret's Criticizin Photographs. Criticizing Photographs: An Introduction to Understanding Images

A report issued Jan. 7 by the FCC's Office of Engineering & Technology (OET) Laboratory shows the number of wireless transmitters authorized by the agency last year grew to 12,000 — a near fourfold increase from the total 10 years ago.
The two-page document, the first in a series due from the OET, also found a 700 percent increase in the number of devices with three or more transmitters from a couple of years ago. That translates into more than 50 percent of devices having three or more transmitters, up from 7 percent in 2008.
Growth in wireless use by consumers throughout the United States is a key factor propelling the commission's National Broadband Plan. As part of that spectrum agenda, the commission is seeking to recoup a wide swatch of spectrum used by television broadcasters for auction to wireless service providers.

This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 09/779,882 filed on Feb. 9, 2001, now abandoned.
The present invention relates to a filter for liquids. More particularly, the present invention is a filtration device for removing particulate matter, debris and other items found as contaminants in solutions used in photographic processing equipment.
In recent years, businesses offering rapid processing and printing of color print film, the "One Hour Photo" services, have proliferated. The commercial availability of the automated machines used for this rapid processing and printing, and their comparatively low cost have enabled many small business owners to enter the field, so that the photo finishing business is no longer confined to a few major commercial photo laboratories.
The processing equipment uses a variety of chemicals for film processing and printing. Each chemical is kept in a separate tank or reservoir from which it is pumped into the processing area of the machine at an appropriate time. The chemicals are preferably pumped through the machine in a continuous loop. The manufacturers supply directions as to the working life of each chemical agent, and directions as how to replenish the chemicals after a specified usage. In the course of processing and storage of the chemicals, various types of particulate matter, debris such as film fragments or paper fragments, aggregates of photographic chemicals, dirt, dust, or microorganisms such as algae or bacteria may contaminate the chemicals and their storage tanks. The presence of contaminants can damage film or prints being processed by scratching negatives or prints, causing losses that may require reprocessing or retouching, assuming such damage can be remedied. Contaminants may decrease the efficacy of the chemicals themselves, or clog up the processing equipment, resulting in lost time spent to clean the equipment.
Although disposable filters are available, their replacement cost over time can be significant. The cumulative disposal of filters also has a negative environmental impact. Conventional filters utilized in this equipment are also difficult to reuse because the filtration material is mounted on the inside of the filter. Consequently, these filters are difficult to thoroughly clean. Some of the materials used to manufacture these filters are subject to being washed off or damaged when subjected to cleaning, thus preventing their reuse.
One commercially available product employs a stainless steel filter tube that is fitted over a frame manufactured from an extruded plastic material. Although this filter fits on the frame like a sleeve, it is difficult to clean and maneuver into a good (i.e., fluid-tight) fit within the apparatus.
A further reusable filter is described in U.S. Pat. No. 6,105,787, to the present inventor, the entire contents of which is hereby incorporated by reference. The '787 patent describes a filtration device having a rigid tubular body that terminates in a pair of open ends. The body has a plurality of openings therein, leading to a bore, and a layer of a filtration material is stretched over the surface of the body. The filtration material is attached near the ends of the body, and a pair of end caps are glued within the ends. Although the filter described in the '787 patent has been successful, problems have arisen in maintaining consistency during production. More specifically, the filter is hand manufactured and thus each filter is slightly different in size, tightness of the filtration material, and the reliability of the glue attachment is compromised.
Thus, there is a need for a filtration device having a filter that is made of a filtration material that is reusable, that will not be washed off of its support matrix during cleaning, that will not be damaged from abrasion or cleansing agents during cleaning, and that can be economically manufactured with a high degree of quality control. Further, the filtration device should be made of materials capable of withstanding the physical conditions, including pressures, temperatures and flow rates, and chemical conditions of the environment of photographic processing chemicals in automated processing machines.
The present invention overcomes the disadvantages of the prior art by providing a reusable filtration device for removing particulate matter from a liquid in a liquids processing system. The filtration device includes a tubular body having a body wall defining a rigid support structure with a plurality of inlet openings, the body wall further comprising an inside wall structure and an outside wall structure, a central bore extending through the tubular body and being coextensive with the body wall, and an end portion on each opposing end of the body wall. The filtration device further includes a filtering medium disposed between the inside wall structure and the outside wall structure of the body wall, thereby filling the plurality of inlet openings.
A further aspect of the present invention provides a method of manufacturing a reusable filtration device for removing particulate matter from a liquid in a liquids processing system. The method includes forming a tubular sleeve from a filtration material, disposing the tubular sleeve about a mold core, placing the mold core within a mold cavity, and injection molding the filtration device within the mold cavity to form the filtration device comprising a tubular body having a body wall defining a rigid support structure having a plurality of inlet openings, the body wall further comprising an inside wall structure and an outside wall structure; a central bore extending through the tubular body and being coextensive with the body wall; the body wall terminating in a pair of end portions; and the tubular sleeve of filtration material being disposed between the inside wall structure and the outside wall structure of the body wall, thereby filling the plurality of inlet openings. In a further aspect of the present invention, the injection molding step includes forming the outside wall structure as a plurality of transverse and longitudinal struts so as to define the plurality of inlet openings therebetween and still further, the injection molding step includes forming the inside wall structure as a plurality of longitudinally extending ribs, the ribs being axially aligned with the longitudinal struts such that the filtration material is sealed therebetween during said molding step.
These, and other, objects, features and advantages of the present invention will become more readily apparent to those skilled in the art upon reading the following detailed description, in conjunction with the appended drawings, in which:
The terms "reagent", "fluid", "chemistry", "chemical", or "solution" are being used interchangeably when referring to the fluids being filtered by the filtration device of the present invention.
The present invention is directed to a filtration device 10 that is designed for use in conjunction with various types of commercial equipment for photographic film and paper processing operations, such as, but not meant to be limited to, those typically used by "One Hour Photo" service businesses.
Referring to
A layer of filtration material 28 is disposed between the outside wall structure 18 and the inside wall structure 16, thus filling the openings 24 and extending to the end portions 20 and 22. Body 12 is open at both ends so as to allow fluid flow into and out of the central bore 19 of the device. In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the filtration material 28 is a mesh material, and more preferably it is a polypropylene mesh, which is insert molded during formation of the device 10, as described in further detail below. The mesh selected for the preferred embodiment has a pore size between approximately 30 microns and approximately 150 microns, and most preferably approximately 105 microns. A seam 30 is coextensive with the length of the filtration material, as will be described in detail below.
Each end of tubular body 12 is integrally formed with the end portions 20, 22. End portion 20 has an inside surface 36 and an outside surface 38. The inside surface 36 may further include an annular groove 41, as best shown in
Referring to
The filtration device 10 of the present invention is formed in the following preferred manner. In the first instance, the filtration material 28 is disposed about a stainless steel mandrel. Preferably, the outer diameter of the mandrel will be substantially equal to the desired inner diameter of the finished filtration device. The material 28 is heat or sonic welded about the mandrel so as to form a tubular sleeve and with the longitudinal seam 30 thereon. The transverse ends of the material 28 are preferably laser cut so as to simultaneously seal the material and prevent the mesh from fraying. The filtration material sleeve is then removed from the mandrel. Following this procedure, filtration sleeves can be formed in a plurality of sizes for use in forming a plurality of different sizes of finished filtration devices. In the next phase of manufacture, a filtration sleeve is disposed about a mold core member, preferably one that is cylindrical in shape. The mold core member with the sleeve therearound is then placed in the mold cavity of a mold, and the filtration device 10 is injection molded with the filtration material 28 in place. The mold cavity is configured such that during the injection molding step the filtration material 28 of the sleeve is sealed between the molded longitudinal struts 18 a of the outer wall structure 18 and the molded longitudinal ribs 16 a of the inner wall structure 16. The upper and lower transverse ends of the filtration sleeve are similarly sealed to the molded end portions 20, 22. In a preferred embodiment, the desired end portion coupling devices are integrally molded simultaneously with the molding of the filter body 12. The finished device 10 can then be removed from the mold cavity. The integral injection molding of the filtration device 10 of the present invention overcomes many of the quality control problems associated with the individual hand manufacture and gluing operations used in the past. More particularly, filtration devices formed by the injection molding process of the present invention have a consistent and uniform size and configuration.
When placed in a photo processing apparatus, the filtration device 10 of the present invention functions in the following manner. Referring to
Both end portions of filtration device 10 are preferably inserted into the filter housing 120 and, depending upon the particular processing apparatus in which the present invention is employed, one of the adapters 45 or another coupling connection may be attached to the end portion 20 to facilitate insertion of the filtration device 10 onto the particular filter holder. The filtration device can be inserted into a receptacle at the bottom of the filter housing, held in place by rubber 0-rings to effect a seal, or forced or pressed fit into position.
Filtration device 10 is capable of withstanding the pressures and flow rates of the various processing devices. The present invention can be used in both high speed and low speed processing equipment. As an example, and not meant to be a limitation, a flow rate of two to five gallons per minute is typical of the flow rates that the filtration device 10 must withstand.
Generally, a processing apparatus employs several chemicals, each of which is stored in their own tank or reservoir 100, as shown schematically in
By way of example, the filtration device 10 of the present invention may be retained in a filter housing 120 that is attached to the outside portion 102 of a tank 100 containing photographic chemicals 108. The filter housing 120 can be molded onto the side of the tank as shown in
Assuming a clockwise flow path in the exemplary embodiment of
As shown in
Removing the top 124 when the processing device has been turned off serves multiple functions. It provides access to the filtration device 10, enabling one to inspect it for build up of particulate matter on its filter surface 28, examine the overall physical condition and whether there has been deterioration of any of its components or damage to the filter element and to change filters when necessary.
The filtration material employed in the present invention is capable of withstanding the strong alkali and strong acid conditions that are characteristic of photographic chemicals. Developer solutions generally are alkaline, while the bleaches and fixatives are generally acidic solutions. In the preferred embodiment, this is a polypropylene mesh.
Since the inside wall surface 16 of the present invention is preferably formed by a plurality of ribs 16 a extending the length of the tubular body 12, generally longitudinal channels are formed on the interior of the filter device 10. Any particulate matter or other items retained on the interior surface of the filtration material can thus be washed off or easily scrubbed within these longitudinal channels, allowing the filtration device to be cleaned and reused.
A significant increase in the pressure of the line, or a decrease in the flow rate, or both, are indicative of the filtration device becoming clogged, and a sign that the filtration device must be removed from the unit and cleaned. As will be known to one skilled in the art, the orientation of the filtration device and its filter housing can be vertical, as shown in
The components used in the filtration device are manufactured from materials that preferentially are both physically resistant and chemically resistant to the chemicals used in the processing solutions. The filtration devices can be changed periodically as part of a standard maintenance program, or when they show signs of wear.
While the present invention has been described with preferred embodiments, it is to be understood that variations and modifications may be resorted to as will be apparent to those skilled in the art. For example, while specific examples of the coupling devices in the end portions of the filtration device are illustrated, other mechanisms for attachment could also be used. Further, while it is preferred for such coupling devices to be integrally molded with the filtration device, it is also within the scope of the present invention to have such devices glued or otherwise fitted within the end portions of the molded filtration devices. Such variations and modifications are to be considered within the purview and the scope of the present invention.

Ivy leaved Pelargonium RR!!
Thank you very much to give me the name this. =)
Does it have seeds or cutting??? Please anyone tell me about this... thank you
This message was edited Sunday, Jan 27th 12:03 AM
You are welcome - one of my all time favourites!!
Don't bother with trying to gather seeds, they won't come true but cuttings are very easy to root in a glass of water. They flower for a long time. They are a tender perennial and don't like frosts much.
This message was edited Sunday, Jan 27th 6:01 AM
Red Rose - I've also had very good luck rooting these in a light soil mix. Take a cutting and dip in a rootone powder and stick in the soil - keep soil from drying out. I usually mist every day or so and water once a week. Don't let the soil dry out completely.
Those baskets are beautiful. Be careful in the summer sun - down here in FLorida my ivy geraniums love the full shade in the summer and will burn up in the hot summer sun - they do very well in fall and winter in sun

Are You Eating Too Many Carbs?
By Lara Rondinelli, RD, LDN, CDE
You've probably heard it all -- eat good carbs, eat low-carb, eat whole-grain carbs, eat low glycemic index, eat healthy carbs. But are you just eating too many carbs? Do you even know how many carbs you're eating? The typical American diet is loaded with carbs; starting with breakfast full of bagels, muffins, and scones, lunches packed with sandwiches, chips, and cookies, and dinners loaded with large portion sizes of pasta, rice, and potatoes. Not to mention the overwhelming amount of carb-loaded snack foods such as crackers, fruit snacks, granola bars, and ice cream treats.
How Many Carbs Are You Eating?
First, if you are overweight or obese, you need to evaluate your diet and figure out what foods you are overeating. If you see that your diet is made up of lots of bread, crackers, potatoes, pasta, sweets, and chips, you can figure you are eating too many carbs. If you are not obese, but are having trouble controlling glucose levels, check out the section below on postprandial blood-sugar testing.
A registered dietitian can always help you determine if you are overeating carbs, but using the plate method can be a simple way to estimate how many carbs you are eating. For example, no more than one-quarter of your plate should be made up of a healthy, starchy carb such as sweet potatoes or quinoa. Most Americans are filling plates with amounts greater than 50 percent. Check it out here: The Plate Method.
Another way to determine if you are eating too many carbs is to read food labels. Many meal plans recommend a maximum of 45 grams of carbs per meal and no more than 15g per snack or dessert. By reading labels, you can figure out how many carbs you are eating compared to this general recommendation.

After an accelerated review, the European Medicines Agency's Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use has endorsed Victrelis (boceprevir), Merck's new hepatitis C treatment, and recommended that the European Commission grant marketing approval. The committee said Victrelis should be used in combination with interferon-based treatment in untreated patients with chronic hepatitis C, as well as in patients who had failed on treatment. The action came just a week after the drug was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration.

Treatment at a price

Cancer patient Ann Claxton has so far parted with over $50,000 in a bid to beat the aggressive brain tumour threatening her life.
But the cost is taking its toll and she's turning to the public for help.
The Aucklander is also hoping that the expensive Avastin chemotherapy she is paying for will eventually be government funded.
The 62-year-old was diagnosed just over a year ago after an acute onset of symptoms.
"I was getting ready for the gym but couldn't dress myself. I went down to tell my husband but by then I couldn't even speak," she says.
John Claxton raced his wife to North Shore Hospital where she was diagnosed with glioblastoma multiforme - the nastiest tumour of its kind, he says.
"They don't go away in a hurry. Some people die within a number of days, some people go on for years. We are hoping Ann will be in the latter group.
The Claxtons say doctors suggested Avastin chemotherapy - a treatment with an uncertain outcome and a price tag of more than $50,000.
John says he didn't think twice and knew he had to find a way to pay for the non-government funded drug.
But he thinks oncologists would use the product more if it was free and believes lives would be saved.
Roche Products is the distributor of Avastin in New Zealand.
Director of medical affairs Jan Campbell says it is used to treat a number of types of cancers.
"Clinical trials have shown that when given for recurrent glioblastoma Avastin improved survival times."
Campbell says Avastin is not funded by Pharmac meaning patients need to pay for the medicine themselves or fundraise.
"We have submitted five full submissions and at least seven commercial proposals [to Pharmac]," she says. "All submissions have been unsuccessful and whilst we never wish to let down patients, there is a point where you have to balance the likelihood of a successful outcome."
Pharmac operations director Sarah Fitt says it is always open to considering funding applications and would welcome a submission for Avastin as a treatment for glioblastoma.
"Pharmac has previously assessed Avastin but not for its use in treating glioblastomas.
Should Pharmac receive an application, we would ask our clinical advisory committee PTAC to review the clinical data, and an economic analysis would be conducted."
Meanwhile the Claxtons are paying for the treatment out of their own pockets and have set up a fundraising page at givealittle.co.nz/cause/annmclaxton
Ann has had three brain surgeries, two lots of radiation and two doses of chemotherapy since her diagnosis and remains optimistic about her future.
She says there are a lot of people in the world worse off than her.
''I spend my days watching the birds and don't go into what could and may be. There's no point. When I was diagnosed I instantly thought I have to beat this.''

Banks repossess 1 million homes in 2010
Utah 5th on list of states with highest foreclosure rates
Paul Sakuma, Associated Press
NEW YORK — The bleakest year in the foreclosure crisis has only just begun, foreclosure tracker RealtyTrac Inc. reported in its Year-End 2010 U.S. Foreclosure Market Report.
Lenders are poised to take back more homes this year than any other since the U.S. housing meltdown began in 2006. About 5 million borrowers are at least two months behind on their mortgages and more will miss payments as they struggle with job losses and loans worth more than their home's value, industry analysts forecast.
"2011 is going to be the peak," said Rick Sharga, a senior vice president at RealtyTrac. The firm predicts 1.2 million homes will be repossessed this year by lenders. RealtyTrac also released a survey stating that 58 percent of Americans don't expect to see improvement in the housing market until after 2012.
The outlook comes after banks repossessed more than 1 million homes in 2010, RealtyTrac said Thursday. That marked the highest annual tally of properties lost to foreclosure on records dating back to 2005.
One in 45 U.S. households received a foreclosure filing last year, or a record high of 2.9 million homes. That's up 1.67 percent from 2009.
For December, 257,747 U.S. homes received at least one foreclosure-related notice. USA Today reports that December had the lowest monthly total in 30 months. The number of notices fell 1.8 percent from November and 26.3 percent from December 2009, RealtyTrac said.
The pace slowed in the final two months of 2010 as banks reviewed their foreclosure processes after allegations surfaced in September that evictions were handled improperly. Under increased government scrutiny, lenders temporarily halted taking actions against borrowers severely behind on their payments.
Most banks have since resumed their eviction processes, and the first quarter will likely show a rebound in foreclosure activity, Sharga said. However, USA Today also reports that some states have created ways to slow the foreclosure process, which may keep the pace down.
Foreclosures are expected to remain elevated through the year as homeowners contend with stubbornly high unemployment, tougher credit standards for refinancing and falling home values. Sharga said he expects prices to dip another 5 percent nationally before finally bottoming out. The decline will push more borrowers underwater on their mortgages. Already, about one in five homeowners with a mortgage owe more than their home is worth.
The pain likely will be the most acute in states that have already been hit hard. That includes former housing boom states Nevada, Arizona, Florida and California, along with states that are suffering most from the economic downturn, including Michigan and Illinois.
Nevada posted the highest foreclosure rate in 2010 for the fourth straight year, despite a 5 percent decline in activity from the year before. One in every 11 households received a foreclosure filing last year in the state. In December, foreclosure activity increased 18 percent from November with a 71 percent spike in bank repossessions.
Arizona and California also showed sharp December increases in the number of homes banks took back, at 52 percent and 47 percent, respectively. Arizona, along with Florida, finished the year at No. 2 and No. 3 for the highest foreclosure rates.
One in every 17 Arizona households got a foreclosure filing last year, while one in 18 received a notice in Florida.
California, Utah, Georgia, Michigan, Idaho, Illinois and Colorado rounded out the top ten states with the highest foreclosure rates.
More than half of the country's foreclosure activity came out of five states in 2010: California, Florida, Arizona, Illinois and Michigan. Together, these states recorded almost 1.5 million households receiving a filing, despite year-over-year decreases in California, Florida and Arizona.
RealtyTrac tracks notices for defaults, scheduled home auctions and home repossessions — warnings that can lead up to a home eventually being lost to foreclosure.

"Charitable organizations serve and strengthen Montana communities through their contributions to health, the environment, education, spiritual development, research, the arts and human services."
The attorney general, as the state's chief law enforcement officer, has authority to supervise charitable organizations and plays an important role in ensuring that all Montanans continue to benefit from the services they provide. Montana law does not require charities operating in the state to register with the Attorney General's Office. However, charities that solicit contributions through telemarketing must comply with Montana's telemarketing laws.
The following information is provided to help charities operating in Montana comply with state regulations.
Nonprofit corporations are created to support charitable, religious, educational, scientific or artistic endeavors. Unlike for-profit corporations, nonprofits:
In Montana, the Montana Nonprofit Corporation Act governs the organization and operation of nonprofit corporations. Section 35-2-126 of the Montana Code Annotated (MCA) requires that an organization must be designated as a mutual benefit, public benefit or religious corporation, as determined by the articles of incorporation filed with the Secretary of State's Office.
The duties of nonprofit directors include:
Officers also must act for the corporation in good faith, prudently and with the best interest of the corporation in mind. Section 35-2-441, MCA.
Public benefit and religious corporations must provide written notice to the attorney general 20 days before the organization in any way disposes of all or substantially all of its property. This allows the attorney general to review the proposed transfer or disposal, address any issues and commence any necessary court proceedings. Section 35-2-617(7)(a), MCA. Dissolution. Public benefit and religious corporations must submit a completed Notice of Dissolution form to the attorney general if the organization intends to dissolve. The Notice of Dissolution must:
The attorney general reviews the plan to ensure that company assets are transferred to another public benefit or religious corporation in accordance with Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Corporation assets cannot be transferred or conveyed for at least 20 days unless the attorney general has waived the notification requirements. Section 35-2-722, MCA. See Section 35-2-725, MCA or IRS exemption requirements for additional information.
Mutual benefit corporations that intend to dissolve should consult Section 35-2-725, MCA for important information about distributing or transferring assets.
Nonprofit corporations are required to notify the attorney general of any legal actions taken either against them or on their behalf under the Nonprofit Corporation Act. The act authorizes the attorney general to intervene in such legal proceedings or to initiate them to enforce Montana law. Section 35-2-131, MCA.
Charitable trusts are created for a variety of charitable purposes that benefit the public, the relief of poverty, the advancement of education or religion, the promotion of health, governmental or municipal purposes, or other purposes that benefit the community. Section 72-38-405, MCA.
State law relating to oversight of charitable trusts and prohibition of certain activities are included in Title 72, Chapter 38, MCA, and are summarized below.
General Duties of Trustees. Trustees have a duty to:
The Attorney General has authority to enforce a charitable beneficiary's rights. Sections 72-38-221, 72-38-110, and 72-38-405 MCA.
Prohibited Conduct. Trustees are prohibited from:
For additional information on prohibited conduct see section 72-38-822, MCA. For additional information on trustee duties, see sections 72-38-801 through 72-38-813, MCA.
Duty to Report.
Unless the Trust instrument specifically provides to the contrary, trustees must make reports annually to those beneficiaries with the most significant interests in the trust ("qualified beneficiaries"). The reports must include:
