Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs) are specialized financial institutions operating in markets that are underserved by traditional financial institutions. This section provides information on CDFIs, with a particular focus on the Southeast region of the U.S. In addition, it includes a dedicated section on CDFI banks, also known as Community Development Banks (CDBs).
Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs) are specialized financial institutions operating in markets that are underserved by traditional financial institutions. The CDFI Resource Center provides information on CDFIs, with a special focus on the Southeast region of the U.S.
Contact information for CDFIs in the Southeast region of the U.S. (Maryland, District of Columbia, West Virginia, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas, Tennessee and Kentucky), updated in partnership with The Support Center in North Carolina and CDFI Fund.
Community development banks (CDBs) are Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC)-insured depository institutions. They function in much the same way as traditional commercial banks, providing products and services such as checking accounts, savings accounts, personal loans and business loans. What distinguishes CDBs from traditional commercial banks is their focus on low- and moderate-income markets. CDBs are often described as having a dual financial and social mission – earning profits and promoting community development – because they serve low- and moderate-income communities that may be otherwise underserved.
CDBs are part of a larger group of organizations known as Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs) and are often referred to as CDFI banks. CDFIs can obtain a designation known as certification by applying to the CDFI Fund.
Data on community development financial institutions
The purpose of the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond's Community Development Bank (CDB) Peer Group Analysis is to provide descriptive statistics on a peer group of community development banks that are tracked over time. The peer group analysis is conducted annually and incorporates data from 2005 to the date of the analysis. The peer group of CDBs consists of banks that were in existence from the start date of the analysis and continue to be in existence as of the end date. For example, the 2009 analysis includes banks that were in existence in 2005 and still existed in 2009. Updates will occur annually.

Resources to learn more about policies and regulations affecting community development financial institutions
The Community Reinvestment Act (CRA), enacted by Congress in 1977, is intended to encourage depository institutions to help meet the credit needs of the communities in which they operate. For additional information, see the FFIEC's Community Reinvestment Act website. CRA requires the federal regulatory agencies, in their examinations of certain depository institutions, to assess the institutions' CRA performance. The institution's performance in helping to meet the credit needs of its community is evaluated in context of information about the institution (capacity, constraints, business strategies), its community (demographic and economic data, lending, investment, and service opportunities) and its competitors and peers.
At the completion of a CRA examination, an overall CRA rating is assigned using a four-tiered rating system. The ratings are: Outstanding, Satisfactory, Needs to Improve, and Substantial Noncompliance.
Rating and Exam
Click on the links below to view the CRA ratings and access the exams for each individual community development bank. The information presented is based on the date of an individual community development bank's most recent CRA exam. Ratings retrieved from FFIEC Interagency CRA Rating Search Tool and exams from the website of the respective institution's regulator. Updates will occur annually.

JERICHO - Vermont State Police say a motorist was killed when his van veered off a road, crashed into a metal culvert and slid on its side into a utility pole in the town of Jericho.
Police say emergency crews had to use extrication equipment to free the victim, who was pronounced dead at the scene early Sunday. His name wasn't immediately released.
Police say the van was traveling west on Route 15 in Jericho shortly after midnight when the vehicle left the road while approaching an intersection with Raceway Road. Police say it hit the metal drainage culvert head-on. The impact knocked the van onto its side before it slid roof-first into the utility pole.MORE IN This Just InMEMPHIS, Tenn.

The Blessing of a Strong Currency To hear some commentators talk, one would think that America's trade-deficit woes would be miraculously erased with a swift devaluation.

The corollary is that the expensive dollar is making American exporters unattractive to the rest of the world. The resu

I had the opportunity to read Bloodstrike #28 from Image Comics. Written by Tim Seeley with art by Francesco Gaston.
This issue follows nugene (aka mutant) Cabbot Stone as he recaps his day, right before he runs into his brother for a small battle. We also get a behind the scenes look at who runs their secret agency and his philandering ways. The story is well balanced with action and story.
Despite never reading it before, I was able to jump right in and follow along. The concept seems a bit like an X-Men story but fresher since these characters haven't been around for fifty years. It was nice to read a mutant story with characters I still needed to learn about.
The art was basic fare throughout the issue with a few highlights. There was a great gore moment in the beginning, with amazing detail on the jaw. I also was impressed with an explosion panel, where everything went black and white.
Bloodstrike was a great read, especially if you are burned out on X-Men. I am even tempted to get back issues to catch myself up, it was that interesting.

UPDATE (March 12, 2011): The tsunami hit the Galapagos about an hour later than originally expected. Seas are choppier around the entire archipelago, but nothing too severe or extremely unusual. Waves at Academy Bay, in Puerto Ayora (Santa Cruz Island), were taller than normal as well, but there are no records of any damages caused to boats, coasts or ports in the Galapagos. The animals from the Charles Darwin Research Station (including Lonesome George) that had been transported to the highlands as a precaution will be transported back down during the course of the day. Flight are running, but are busy and there are delays as expected.
We woke with news this morning of an earthquake that struck Japan measuring 8.9 on the Richter scale. Our thoughts are with all of those affected by this natural disaster. As a result of this earthquake, tsunami alerts have been issued for islands and coastal regions hugging the Pacific Ocean.
The tsunami is expected to arrive in Galapagos later this afternoon (March 11, 2011), around 4:30 pm local Galapagos time (5:30pm mainland Ecuador). Ecuador President Rafael Correa has ordered evacuation of the Galapagos Islands. Thankfully, effects of the tsunami are not expected to be severe in the Galapagos or in Latin America in general. Nonetheless, all necessary precautions are already in affect and with the advanced notice, time to seek safe ground is sufficient.
Along with the evacuation order, flights to Galapagos today have been canceled. All tour yachts are required to leave port and be at least five miles offshore to safe waters. Travelers are staying on board. The local populations are seeking higher ground to the highlands and mid sections of the Islands by noon today. Obviously, all visits today have been canceled.
Weather experts in Ecuador expect a similar situation to the one witnessed in Hawaii earlier today in the Galapagos. The higher than usual waves, which arrived about every 15 minutes to the Hawaiian coast caused minimal damage on the shores and ports of the islands. A very similar scenario is expected in the Galapagos today.
Among those evacuating to higher ground is the islands' famous inhabitant, Lonesome George, as reported by the Galapagos Conservancy.
All international flights into Quito and Guayaquil are operating normally and no delays or cancellations are expected. We are optimistic that flights to and from the Galapagos will be resuming tomorrow. Congestion is inevitable - airports in Galapagos will see an increase in flights to normalize the situation of those passengers stranded in mainland Ecuador today.
Tsunami alerts and alarms in Latin America have also been issued for Guatemala, El Salvador, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Panama, Honduras, Ecuador, Colombia, Peru, Chile. In general, coast regions in these countries are advising coastal populations to be on alert and in some cases seek higher ground.
We are in constant contact with our partners in Galapagos and throughout Latin America and will keep you updated on developments.

Audi TT Clubsport Quattro Study
Filed under: Luxury Cars & Autos
Audi has debuted the TT Clubsport Quattro study for Wörthersee 2007, an auto enthusiast event in Austria. The speedster is stripped down to to those parts that make it most racetrack-worthy, with the 300-horsepower TFSI four-cylinder engine mated to Audi's S-tronic direct-shift gearbox, ceramic brakes, light aluminum components and four-point seatbelts taking the lead.
The wraparound windscreen (notice the lack of an A-pillar), barely-there windows and short rollbars seem to have a "minimalist" feel, yet the prominent grille, LED-encrusted headlights and HUGE intakes and fat fender flares are so much larger than life that they make the vehicle almost a caricature.
Like any self-respecting German automaker, the gadgets abound. A B&O MP3 player BeoSound 2, designed especially for this vehicle in order to fit into the round spaces set aside for the entertainment area on the dash, while a remote control is the only way to get the doors to open from the outside.
Check out the automaker's full press release after the jump.

I know this thread might be a few days premature, but I saw this diary on yesnetwork.com and thought I'd share the link. Ray Negron, who was a batboy in the 70s and still works for the Yankees today, is sharing his memories of Thurman in five installments on the YES site, beginning today.
Personally, I can't believe that Sunday will be 30 years since Thurman died. I remember exactly where I was when I heard the news. I was only 11 years old, but it was one of my first "where were you when" moments.
This week is also sort of eerie for me. I've told this story on this site before, but my very first MLB game was August 1, 1979 (Yankees vs. White Sox at Comiskey Park). It, of course, turned out to be Thurman's last game. Where will I be on Saturday, August 1, 2009? At US Cellular watching the Yankees and White Sox.
I only got to see Thurman play in person that one time and he didn't catch nor did he play the whole game. But he was still my favorite player and, quite frankly, the reason I became a Yankees fan.
I'd love to read stories and memories from others about Thurman. Share your thoughts everyone!

Meet our 2013 grads
Curious about the profile of the Class of 2013? We think you'll find that while many things change at Willamette, some things remain the same...
For the past five years we've recruited more than 50 alumni annually to call the College of Liberal Arts graduates right after they graduate. Volunteers are matched to no more than 10 new grads based on geography and major. These generous volunteers check in with the most recent graduates to make sure they are aware of the support offered to them through the Career Network (and alumni association, too). Given the state of the job market, we feel it is important for the new graduates to know we're invested in their post-graduation career success. Career decisions are tough and alumni can provide such inspiration as our newest alumni transition from college to career.
It's a cool way to pay it forward and strengthen the Bearcat network. If you'd like to volunteer (we make it as easy for you as possible, we promise!) just email Stacey Lane.

High Spring Washer Resolution Process - Permanent Code Amendment
About this consultation
On 22 December 2011, the Electricity Authority gazetted (No. 200, p. 5740) amendments to the Electricity Participation Code 2010 (Code) to restore the effectiveness of the high spring washer resolution process. The amendment came into effect on 23 December 2011 and, as the Code amendment was made under Section 40(1) of the Electricity Industry Act 2010, it expires after nine months on 22 September 2012.
The Authority is now proposing a further Code amendment in accordance with the Act and the Authority's Code Amendment Principles to address this matter.
A spring washer occurs when the scheduling, pricing, and dispatch (SPD) model calculates escalating prices based on the marginal cost of supplying generation from different ends of an electrical loop around a binding transmission constraint. It is referred to as a spring washer because the prices decrease at one end of the constraint and increase (often above the price of the highest generation dispatched) at locations around the electrical loop and reach a peak at the other end. A comprehensive explanation of how these situations occur and the prices that result can be found on Transpower's website.
In 2006 the Authority's predecessor, the Electricity Commission, proposed that, when the final price schedules do include high spring washer prices, they be tested to ensure they were outside the range of any minor inaccuracies. It established a process that provided for the application of a relaxation factor to reduce the prices associated with a high spring washer price situation.
This resolution process worked for over four years until late March 2011, when Transpower introduced a software package to automatically calculate and apply security constraints in SPD. The application of this new software caused the resolution process to become ineffectual on high spring washer price situations around constraints on parallel circuits.
On 7 December 2011, the Authority considered recent cases and the potential for high spring washer price situations to occur around constraints on parallel circuits that could not be fixed by the resolution process then in place. The Authority considered that the potential for this situation to recur, with its attendant adverse effects on the Authority's ability to achieve its statutory objective, was significant enough to proceed with an urgent Code amendment to restore its effectiveness. This amendment came into effect on 23 December 2011.
Urgent Code amendments expire nine months after taking effect. After considering its options, the Authority is now proposing a further Code amendment in accordance with the normal (non-urgent) Code making provisions in the Act and consistent with the approach in the Authority's Code Amendment Principles.
The Authority's preference is to receive submissions in electronic format (Microsoft Word). It is not necessary to send hard copies of submissions to the Authority, unless it is not possible to do so electronically.
Submissions in electronic form should be emailed to email@example.com with Consultation Paper - High Spring Washer Resolution Process in the subject line.
If submitters do not wish to send their submission electronically, they should post one hard copy of their submission to the address below:

Wellington 6143

Level 7, ASB Bank Tower

Tel: 0-4-460 8860
Fax: 0-4-460 8879
Submissions should be received by 4pm on Thursday, 12 July 2012. Please note that late submissions are unlikely to be considered.
The Authority will acknowledge receipt of all submissions electronically. Please contact the Submissions' Administrator if you do not receive electronic acknowledgement of your submission within two business days.
Your submission is likely to be made available to the general public on the Authority's website. Submitters should indicate any documents attached, in support of the submission, in a covering letter and clearly indicate any information that is provided to the Authority on a confidential basis. However, all information provided to the Authority is subject to the Official Information Act 1982.

SMF Support > Install and Upgrade Help
Important Notice: Do you use Filezilla? Avatars and Attachments lost?
Arantor Beeblebrox the First:
--- Quote from: headstone on March 12, 2011, 09:43:31 AM ---Just a thought... Wouldn't it be far simpler to give these files an extension that can then be removed by the forum code upon detection?
--- End quote ---
Funny you should say that. The reason the files are stored without extension is to prevent the files being abused; there was a vulnerability a bit back that allowed files with extensions to be triggered by the server itself, which lead to a lot of forums being hacked.
Honestly, though, it's a bit of a poor showing that FileZilla assumes anything without an extension is 'likely a text file' by default... which is where the problem comes in.
Yes, in theory, it can be modified to have a generic extension that won't normally be executable - but it's a change that you won't see in SMF, certainly not before 2.1 at the earliest (if at all)
--- Quote from: Arantor on March 12, 2011, 12:09:54 PM ---Honestly, though, it's a bit of a poor showing that FileZilla assumes anything without an extension is 'likely a text file' by default... which is where the problem comes in.
--- End quote ---
Yes, I agree. And if I remember correctly, this was an unannounced change in an upgrade from its previous default behavior where it assumed it was not a text file, which further compounded the problem for people who had the previous version installed. Upgrades shouldn't change user settings without some sort of notice to the user. (imo)
--- Quote from: Arantor on May 03, 2010, 06:30:01 AM ---Text mode == ASCII mode, they're one and the same.
When I'm using either FileZilla or WinSCP, I have it set to treat *everything* as binary.
--- End quote ---
including .htaccess?
Can I uncheck both "Treat files without extension as ASCII file" and "Treat dotfiles as ASCII file"
and then upload everything as binary?
This should be it the admin panel.
I have moved my site 3 times and wondered why 50% of the attachments never made it.
now my question that I didn't see a answer on is, why don't all said images have extensions? this would make life so much easier :P
but now I know what I been doing wrong, ThankYou for the heads up ;D
Aleksi "Lex" Kilpinen:
The attachments don't have file extensions to make it harder to upload an executable file like a shell script and use it to take over the server ;)

Hey all,
Trying to import a PSD file into a sequence which was working in CS5. However in CS6 I get the error "Error: the importer reported a generic error.". I've tried saving the file in Photoshop CS6 with "Maximize Compatability" on and off, still the same error. Is anyone else getting this or just me?
Regards, Jon
Thanks for the reponses. :-) Must be something at my end. :-/
I've checked and it's set to RGB 8 bit. I've tried a blank project in Premiere and creating an image from scratch in Photoshop then importing. I still get the "Error: the importer reported a generic error.".
Oh well, I'll just convert them all to PNGs. :-)
Regards, Jon
It's only a screen capture (to fix the boom coming into shot ha) so not big:
Also tried with smaller test images and same result. I'm not sure, since noone else appears to have the issue I'm thinking a file must be out of date and a reinstall is required. Will probably try that later when I've got some time. :-)
As I see it, you have addressed the major causes of problems with Still Images, Color Mode, Bit-Depth, not populated with Smart Objects, fit Frame Size, etc.
Not sure why PSD's did not Import, but PNG's would.
Glad that you are getting the Project finished, but I am still curious.
Good luck,

I purchase White Diamond for my aunt & she loves it. I also buy Emeralds for my grandmother. Elizabeth Taylor has great fragrances. I'm not so sure about the classification but they are happy and this perfume is the # 1 request for their birthdays & holidays!!

This really is the only scent I wear that seems to get "what is that you're wearing?" Or, "You smell so good!" I recently was in the doctor's office and the reception commented continuously on how wonderful I smelled. She jokingly (I think LOL) asked me to hang around for the day because she enjoyed the scent so much. I've tried others but they just don't seem to work like White Diamonds. I've been wearing it for years (off and on) and it has grown up with me. I've finally decided there's no other scent for me. Thanks Liz.

I love White Diamonds! My grandkids who are 18, 12, and 7 all know me as White Diamond lady. When the kids were babies everyone knew when I had been around and the kids are growing up knowing that I would never wear anything else. The prices are great so I order more than one. Then for my birthday, anniversary and Christmas guess what I get? Order comes very quickly. .

White Diamonds is one of my favorites to wear any time night or day. I never have to refresh it as it is long lasting and very distinctive and sophisticated. I always receive compliments from both men and women. If you want to feel like a movie star just start wearing White Diamonds from the Elizabeth Taylor line.

Farewell, Steve
The passing of Steve Jobs means there will be, or already is, a proliferation of blogs, essays, and articles remembering a man who helped revolutionize how we use computers, how we listen to music, and how we use our phones. A fitting finale would have been the announcement of the iPhone 5 the day prior to his passing, but it wasn't to be. I could write the typical article lauding his accomplishments and mourning his death at much too young an age (being just 5 years younger, I wholeheartedly feel he died much too young). I don't feel, however, that I could do justice to his life and accomplishments, and much has been written already. Instead, I've decided to give thanks for his creative genius, for that, coupled with the equally creative genius of that other computer company (no, not Dell; Microsoft) has made sites such as Geeks to Go a haven for those desperately seeking help for these sometimes confusing and uncooperative pieces of technology upon which we so desperately rely.

This is a follow-up to my earlier post. I wanted to see what kind of news about Nepal were covered, mainly by the BBC. I have gathered some quick Google results (Google web search and Google news search) for a set of different search queries about Nepal. The queries were made on the 4th Dec 2009, 11:49 (Nepal time). Though this is not an exhaustive research, and the results don't produce anything even close to 'conclusive,' I hope it can give some hints, and justify my reasons in the earlier post.
Numbers to the right of the colon (":") are the total number of pages returned for the search query given at the left of the colon. Sources (either BBC or all) are written inside braces.
'nepal'+'gadhimai' returned 931 pages from bbc.co.uk on google web search

I leave it for you to decide what is the defining characteristic of Christianity in Nepal: death or conversion? The figures speak for themselves on what kind of coverage did Gadhimai receive and what really are the pressing issues of Nepal.

Vet since 99 but this will only be my 8th time as I had an extended hiatus in the middle.
1999, 2001, 2002, 2004, 2009, 2011, 2012, 2013
Still here. Every year and every day of Coachella on the Polo Fields. my streak was broken when i could only pull off the Bahamas part of the recent cruise. i am a failure.
I've been to every year except '03, when I was living abroad. I also missed a single day in '99, '02, '12. So if my math is correct...out of the 34 total days of Coachella, I've been to 29 (not counting the cruise, which I also missed) .

Supposed to go to 02' just moved to Cali, made it 03, 04, 05, 06. 07, 08, 09, 10', 11', 12' and going this year for my 11th in a row. So many awesome days and memorable experiences in the desert. This is the best time of year to get it going and here we come Indio.
