Fannie's new fees a painful reality for home buyers
WASHINGTON — Here's mortgage giant Fannie Mae's sobering New Year's greeting for home buyers and refinancers in 2011: Give me more money! If you want a loan this year, you're going to have to pay more — thousands of dollars more in some cases — even if you've got stellar credit scores and bundles of cash handy for a down payment. Things could get much worse if your scores have been sagging with the economy and you don't have much money up front.
In a Dec. 23 memo to lenders in its network, Fannie announced that it has decided to impose a new schedule of higher add-on fees, similar to what Freddie Mac — the other huge congressionally chartered mortgage investor — rolled out to jeers from the real estate industry just before Thanksgiving.
Both corporations have required massive federal financial infusions — estimated at close to $150 billion — since the housing market began deteriorating, and now operate under a federal "conservatorship" arrangement. The Obama administration plans to submit long-promised proposals to Congress this month on what to do with the two — phase them out, restructure them, privatize one or both of them, or other solutions.
But meanwhile, Fannie and Freddie continue to fund or guarantee upward of two-thirds of new mortgage originations. Because of their sheer size and market dominance, they play pivotal roles in determining whether — and how fast — the housing market can rebound.
Their new fees scheduled to start this spring, however, don't appear likely to make financing a home any easier. In fact, some potential buyers who have high credit scores and hefty down payments may be surprised that even they are being targeted for higher "risk-based" fees.
Consider these examples of how Fannie's revised list of loan add-ons will affect borrowers. Say you want to buy a house that requires a $300,000 first mortgage. You have impressive FICO scores — above 800 — and cash for a down payment just under 25 percent.
Purely on the basis of your credit score and loan-to-value (LTV) ratio, Fannie now plans to charge an extra quarter of a percentage point of the loan amount — $750 — to do the deal. During 2010, by contrast, your substantial down payment combined with your FICO score — signifying virtually no risk of default — would have cost you zero.
Now take the same loan amount, but substitute a lower score and smaller down payment. Say your FICO score is 679, and you have down payment money just under 20 percent, Fannie will soon begin hitting you for 2 3/4 percent in add-on fees — a staggering $8,250 extra solely attributable to your FICO and LTV. That's $1,500 more than what you would have been charged in 2010.
But these fees are just the start of the multilayered, cumulative risk-based pricing system that Fannie and Freddie employ. Every perceived risk factor in a loan transaction receives its own separate add-on fee, all of which get totaled up for your final loan charges. Some fees are keyed to the type of real estate you want to finance. Condos, for example, are charged higher fees than stand-alone houses — a flat three-quarters of 1 percent by Fannie when the down payment is less than 25 percent. Rental investment properties, manufactured homes and loans with interest-only payment features all get separate fees that can mean significantly higher costs.
That's not all. Both Fannie and Freddie also tack on what they call adverse-market fees of one-quarter of 1 percent to all loans — the equivalent of cover charges at a nightclub — just to get you seated at the table. In the $300,000 example above, that's a standard admission ticket of $750 — not what you would consider chump change. All the fees can either be paid by you up front as part of the transaction costs or financed with a higher interest rate on the mortgage itself.
What's the justification for these add-ons? Though Fannie Mae declined to comment on its latest fee hikes, Edward J. DeMarco, acting director of the federal agency that oversees both Fannie and Freddie, called the add-ons "necessary to protect (the companies) from the costs and risks" inherent in the mortgages they buy or guarantee. Both Fannie and Freddie "underpriced mortgage credit risk" in the boom years, DeMarco said in a recent letter to Capitol Hill critics.
The implication here for borrowers in 2011: It's payback time, folks. Get ready to do precisely that — whether the heavy add-ons hamper a housing recovery or not.

LP - Los Saicos - Demolicion - The Complete Recordings - Import
Munster Records is taking us to school with their latest archival release from Perus Los Saicos-LP version with a 12-page full-color booklet with extensive notes and unseen photos. With only six singles released between 1965 and 1966 and from an apparently remote place such as Lima Peru Los Saicos created a raw wild and visceral sound the Southern Hemisphere equivalent of the garage rock that was coming out of the U.S. Northwest at the same time. Theirs is the same DNA shared by The Sonics The Cramps and Black Lips. This release compiles all their recordings and tells their amazing story. This snarling maelstrom of nihilism was cut in Lima when the rest of the world was wetting itself over The Beatles direct links to both The Stooges and The Cramps here and several more equally-enthralling combos. The latter spawned several generations of individuals who would dig deep to previously (mostly) unheard seams of music and other forms of culture that have since become part of the mainstream fabric. Another strong case of the same kind of happenstance to my mind is that which preceded the much-vaunted punk explosion of the 70s. The unhinged nature of the song titles is one thing but after you become acclimatized to the inherent strangeness other aspects become apparent. The rhythms and the way the guitars chime and twang to offset the howling are no mere approximations or interpretation. Chemistry is by far a more important factor in the gestation of sound than proficiency or ability. Theres a point where nature takes over and in kicks the call of the wild. The individuals have no other option than to just go with it. I dont know about you but I have an intense dislike of artists that are nothing more than a modular cookery book approximation of what somebody reckons might be a hipster record collection. This is decidedly not a case of that. Primitive to the point of primordial Los Saicos are an important benchmark. Not were. Who ever thought there could be a combo out there in Peru that would make The Sonics sound like Simon and bloody Garfunkel? There is quite possibly some other music out there someplace that could well make us re-address this consideration but until then cherish this short course of Saicotherapy. --Lindsay HuttonYES these guys definitely make the Sonics sound like Simon & Garfunkel!!! You seriously have to hear Los Saicos (aka the Psychos) to believe it. The Cramps couldve copped their whole style from these guys (if they listened to their singles which we doubt they did) same with the Trashmen or Question Mark and the Mysterions . This is some of the wildest bonkers garage rock youll even throw on the stereo! Much more far out than your favorite Nuggets tracks Los Saicos bewitching combination of the Stooges Link Wray Hasil Adkins and Count Five will totally blow your mind. Even trying to squarely put them into the garage section is bit of a stretch since they mix elements of rockabilly psych surf and the street music of Lima into their evil and tribal rock n roll cocktail. How did no one discover Perus best kept rock n roll secret until now? Who knows but thank god Munster pressed this collection containing all of their singles cuz its SUPER RECOMMENDED!!!!!!!!!!! 031201612

Now that spring has sprung, car windows will be open and convertible tops dropped, it is once again the busy season for questions about our smarts.
With that thought in mind I thought I'd share a handout that I give to folks who ask questions about my smart. If you are on this site you probably own one and I'm sure you have experienced the myriad of questions as well. Instead of simply answering a couple of questions and moving on I thought it would be more fun (and informative) to hand out a fact sheet. Yes, I'm aware smart will give us info to hand out- I staple it to the back of mine. However, my fact sheet is a bit different. It's less corporate, more personal and always brings a smile to the person I hand it to. All the questions are ones that I was asked before creating the sheet. Now don't misunderstand, I love talking about my smart, unfortunately there is never enough time to chat at a red light or when your in a hurry to get somewhere.
If you want to create one for yourself I used a 10pt. comic sans font and can fit two on a standard 8.5x11 sheet of paper. Cut in half you can get two handouts per page. If it doesn't show in the post the (red light) is a red, the links are blue and each question has a bullet point.
I hope you find it as useful and fun as I do. Happy Motoring!

286 Tasting Notes
I am disgracefully behind in writing tasting notes. I have many, many wonderful samples from my tea friends, that I really need to get sipping.
This one came my way from dex, don't even ask how long ago. I don't remember.
This style of tea I really need to be in the mood for. When I drank it a couple of days ago, it was windy and chilly. The perfect day for a warm comforting tea. Sometimes in this type of tea, the smoke it too much for me, and in those cases I usually use it for my home-made pea soup for a smoky flavour in lieu of bacon. This tea, however, was nicely smoky. I added a splash of maple syrup, recommended by another steepster member, and it made for a delicious sweet smoky cup.
Thanks for the sample, dex!
"I am disgracefully behind in writing tasting notes. I have many, many wonderful samples from my tea friends, that I really need to get sipping."
mrmopar, You're very kind as always! I suspect you're correct that this is a common dilemma due to the many favorite generous Steepster tea suppliers as well as Steepster members plus the many frequent sales that are just too good to pass up. And then there's life: family, jobs, medical issues, … etc. Is it any wonder?
I was feeling lazy this morning about tea prep so I wanted something that looked like an easy steeper. Found this in my ever growing tea stash.
It's the perfect tea for this chilly morn. Apple and spice notes spot on. I wish I had added a touch of sweetener, I think it would have popped a bit more, but as is, was still very tasty.
Thanks for the sample Gmathis!
This sample is getting kind of old, so the flavours have probably muted a bit.
I got the apple flavour when the cup was hot, but it seemed to have disappeared as the cup cooled. Once the cup cooled I got that floral note that other's have mentioned.
For me, this was only okay, but I'm not really a fan of florals.
Short note, but I have to get logging a bunch of tea's, 'cos I know more is coming my way…
I haven't seen Cameron B posting in a while…but thank you for the try!
I got this a while back from Cameron B. I thought the sample might be a little tainted (which would have been my fault for keeping it stored near other scented tea's) since it smelled faintly of cinnamon. Fortunately the I don't taste the cinnamon.
I'm not sure if I've tried a Jin Jun Mei before. I really enjoyed this one, so I think I will keep this style of tea as part of my rotation.
The first steep was all dark honey and dried dark fruits. Yum!
The second steep was much lighter. Still very honey sweet and fruity, but much less so.
I really needed this cup of deliciousness after receiving the bad news about the cost of repairing my car…boo :(
I have been committing tea sacrilege with this wonderful tea…but you know, it really works for me. I'm so busy at work that I can't make myself a proper cup, so decided to start doing 'grandpa style' until I find my new work groove.
I have discovered that I really like grandpa style with roasted oolongs, and will probably continue to drink them in this manner. I really like the mineral, salty notes that seem to come through when I brew in this manner. And when the flavour starts to become weak I just add a few more leaves.
I expected to find some strong bitter notes with grandpa style and oolong, but I didn't get that. This tea holds up really well to this style of brewing. When i'm out, I will definitely see if my other roasted oolongs do as well.
Now that I've gone grandpa style, I probably won't go back (at least with this tea)….so easy, convenient and ridiculously delicious.
From Marshaln…throw small amount of leaves in cup/mug of choice, add H2O and keep adding H2O to same leaves until flavor weak or gone. I can usually top up 3 or 4 times before adding a FEW (3 to 5 leaves) more leaves.
I've yet to try that method, but just by the sounds of it, doing roast oolongs that way sounds great!
I've been absent from Steepster, and will probably continue to post sporadically until my personal issues are resolved.
I got this a while ago from a steepster friend. I also drank it a while ago, but have been unable to log it until now. I believe the member called this a 'cheapie steepie'. For a cheapie steepie, I remember it being really gooooood. I don't recall getting the saltiness, but I do remember the strong caramel flavour, and how much I enjoyed it. Whenever i'm in a grocery store (and if I remember) I have a look to see if they have it. I'd buy a box of it for sure.
Thanks for the sample, gmathis. For a 'cheapie steepie', this is mighty tasty!
Can you get Bigelow there? (Laughing at myself as I ask that…you live much closer to actual civilization than I do :)
Actually, I wondered that too :) in the grocery store I was at today they had Bigelow k cups. Sadly, not what I was looking for.
I'm finding this tea quite bitter, first and second infusions. I thought I let the first infusion go too long, so I reduced the time, but the bitterness is still there. It's still drinkable, and I'll keep going as long as the leaves keep giving.
Both infusions brew up really dark, like coffee, and it is strong. The first infusion was earthy and bitter. I did pick up dates too.
Infusion two is earthy and bitter, with a bit of nuttiness.
Because of the bitterness, it's not really a favourite of mine, but for now it's keeping me warm on this really cold day.
Thanks for sharing Cameron B!
I've already reviewed this tea once before, but I'm drinking it again this morning while watching the snow fall.
Not that I've tried many pu'erhs (hoping to change that for 2015), but of the ones I have, this is my favourite. Upfront notes of spice, with an underlying earthiness and maybe some autumn leaves. As the cup cools the mushrooms become prominent.
A sample that was shared by Dexter – thank you!
This is the last of the sample that Dexter sent my way, and I'll probably order more soon, 'cos it's just so good.
So far I've done three solid steeps, and I'm gonna go for another in a minute. Nutty, creamy, and a bit of chocolate. Steep two, I'll admit, I added a bit of creamer, just to see and it turned into delicious sweet milk chocolate.
Thanks Dexter for sharing!
This morning started off gray and dreary, and now it's snowing. Thought I'd get me some sunshine in a cup.
I like this so much! It's so creamy and lemony. Sweet lemon, like pie. Not tart at all. I am really gonna miss you.
Thanks for the sample Dexter!

OSS AGENTS THREATEN LEADER OF OPPOSITION GROUP By Ricardo Gonz·lez Alfonso, Cuba Free Press.
HAVANA - Officials of the Office of State Security (OSS) questioned and threatened Pedro Orlando Herrera Delgado, 51, for five hours May 27 at the OSS quarters in the central province of Santa Clara.
Herrera Delgado is the delegate for the National Council on Civil Rights for Cuba's central region. The political police contended he is in touch with the president of the EX-Club of political prisoners and former fighter Rolando Borges Paz, now living in Miami. Borges Paz has been linked by the Cuban authorities with the Salvadoran citizen Otto Rene Rodriguez Llerena, sentenced to death for bringing explosives into the country and placing a bomb in a Cuban hotel.
Herrera told this reporter that he had met Borges in several prisons throughout the island towards the end of the 60's and early 70's. Herrera, who lives near Placetas, said he had received medicines, food and $20 from Borges Paz, along with correspondence.
The officers gave him a warning for this contact and ordered Herrera not to hold meetings in his home of his organization, the National Council for Civil Rights. They warned him he had to ask for permission from the political police to leave his home. He was later released.

The SIlver Sixpence
The SIlver Sixpence
I set out to create a series of illustrations for the Folktale "The Silver Sixpence". I found the tale in Katharine Briggs' book "British Folktales and Legends".
The Silver Sixpence
"There was an old farmer who had a fine herd of cattle, but they gave no milk. At last he asked a wise woman, and she said someone must be milking the cows, and he had better watch in the byre at night.
So the old man lay in the byre, but always at midnight drowsiness would come over him, and he would fall asleep. So at last he made up his mind that he must stay awake, and at midnight the byre door creaked open a little crack and a brown hare came into the byre and went from stall to stall. So the next night the old farmer watched again, and he took his gun, and loaded it with a silver sixpence and waited till midnight. In came the hare, and lolloped from stall to stall, and when she got to the door the farmer took aim and fired. He only hit her front paw, but she gave a great scream, and a flood of milk came out of her and she scampered away.
The next morning the farmer went to see an old woman that lived near. The door was shut, and her granddaughter came to it. "You'll no can see Grannie," she said. "She's ill. She's hurt her hand." "That'll no prevent her from seeing me," said the farmer "An old neighbour like me." He went in and found the old wife sitting by the fire, with her hand all bundled up. "Let's look at your hand, Maggie woman." Said the old farmer "Maybe I can cure it" He unwrapped the bandages and sure enough there was a wound in it, and in the middle of the wound there was a silver sixpence.
The farmer's cows gave good milk after that."
I find this story very beautiful, charming and simple with dark undercurrents. It Ignited my imagination and I decided to imbue my imagry with symbolism drawing from the occult and folklore in order the represent the characters, atmosphere and context.
I created these drawings with pencil on paper.

text: Kanawha has SUV on natural gas, foresees it for fleet By Rusty Marks September 11, 2012 Story Share Chris Dorst Matt Thomas, in charge of special projects for the Kanawha County Commission, shows off the tank used to store compressed natural gas in the back of the county's first CNG-powered vehicle, a 2013 Chevrolet Tahoe. Chris Dorst The Tahoe has a series of pipes and hoses that inject natural gas directly into the vehicle's fuel injectors. The SUV also runs on gasoline. CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Kanawha County got its first government vehicle converted to run on compressed natural gas this week."We filled it up for [the equivalent of] $1.89 a gallon," said Matt Thomas, who ferried the brand-new 2013 Chevrolet Tahoe SUV from Columbus, Ohio, to Charleston on Monday.Thomas, who is in charge of special projects for the Kanawha County Commission, has spent the past eight months studying natural-gas-powered vehicles and the feasibility of converting part of the county's vehicle fleet to natural gas. He said county officials decided to assign the first natural-gas SUV to Emergency Services Director Dale Petry as a test vehicle to explore the practicality of natural-gas cars.Thomas said the county ordered the Tahoe off the state vehicle contract for $30,000, then spent another $12,000 on a conversion kit to allow the SUV to burn natural gas. He said the fuel savings from using natural gas will quickly pay for the cost of conversion.The Tahoe also runs on gasoline, and can switch back and forth between the two fuel sources at the touch of a button. The vehicle has a series of pipes and hoses that inject natural gas directly into the eight-cylinder engine's fuel injectors, fed from a big yellow compressed-gas tank bolted in the back that holds the equivalent of 11.2 gallons of gasoline."It's bulletproof, fireproof and explosion-proof," Thomas said. It's also securely bolted to the frame so it doesn't become a flying steamroller in the event of a collision.Thomas said there's no noticeable loss of power or pep when switching between fuel sources. "I drove about 100 miles on natural gas at 80 mph, 70 mph," Thomas said. "No difference."Last month, the Kanawha Valley Regional Transportation Authority committed to buying eight natural-gas-powered buses using a $2 million federal grant. Kanawha County Commission President Kent Carper said he also wants to convert some Sheriff's Department vehicles to use natural gas.State and federal officials made a big push in the 1990s to convert government vehicles to run on natural gas. At one time, there were about 700 natural-gas-powered vehicles in the state. But the idea fizzled because of a lack of interest and relatively little fuel savings over conventional gasoline engines. "The main contributing factor was the price of gasoline dropped so low," Thomas said. But gasoline is much more expensive now, and natural-gas technology has improved.Geologists also have learned to tap the vast Marcellus Shale gas reserves that lie buried beneath Appalachia. Carper foresees a Marcellus Shale gas boom making vast quantities of cheap gas available in the near future.The main obstacle to converting to natural gas right now is a lack of natural-gas filling stations. Thomas said the Tahoe can be filled from any existing gas line, but the process takes several hours and requires about $5,000 worth of special equipment.But Thomas, Carper and other local officials believe a natural gas filling station soon will be built in the area. County officials are working with the Charleston Area Alliance and other local agencies to entice private entrepreneurs to build a station. County officials could assure to a developer contracts to fill up government vehicles if a developer were to provide the capital to build the station.State lawmakers also want to pass legislation to give incentives to government agencies to buy natural-gas vehicles."What I'm trying to do is get ahead of the curve," Carper said. "The gas is here, just beneath our feet. "The ultimate goal is to burn as much natural gas -- that we have here in West Virginia -- as we can and quit importing oil."Eventually, Carper envisions fleets of government and private-sector vehicles running on cheap Marcellus Shale gas -- gas that is tapped and refined by West Virginia workers in West Virginia, sent to filling stations owned and operated by West Virginians and pumped into engines converted by West Virginia workers in West Virginia plants."To me, it's a no-brainer," Carper said.Reach Rusty Marks at email@example.com or 304-348-1215.

text: State Open 'like a big family reunion' By Tommy R. Atkinson June 16, 2013 Story Share Chris Dorst Former Capital High star Christian Brand is one of the favorites at this week's West Virginia Open after tying for second at last year's championship. CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- David Bradshaw and Christian Brand are busy chasing their dream of playing on the PGA Tour.The West Virginia natives, though, always make time to return to their home state and renew old acquaintances when the West Virginia Open rolls around.Bradshaw and Brand will be two of the favorites when the 80th edition tees off Wednesday at Parkersburg Country Club, which is hosting the event for the first time since 1983."I love coming back to the Open," said Bradshaw. "It's like a big family reunion. It's more than a golf tournament. I go to these mini-tour events and it's very cutthroat. We're all trying to earn a living and get on the PGA Tour. Everybody's really nice [at the Open]. They're asking you how you're doing and how you've been. You get to catch up with everybody." "I'm excited to see Parkersburg County Club, what the course looks like from what I remember," added Brand, who cut his teeth on the West Virginia Golf Association's junior tour. "I haven't been there in probably eight or 10 years. I'm just looking for a great week. I travel so much now I don't get a chance to see the guys from the WVGA. It'll be nice."Bradshaw and Brand tied for second at last year's Open at Edgewood Country Club in Sissonville as Jonathan Clark, the pro at Sleepy Hollow Golf Club, won his second championship.Clark isn't defending his title this year and instead will be playing in the 46th PGA Professional National Championship June 23-26 at Sunriver Resort near Bend, Ore. Barry Evans, the Berry Hills Country Club pro who won the Open in 2008, also opted for the PGA Pro National Championship, which he won in 2002.Another top player who will be missing the Open is Pat Carter, the reigning West Virginia Amateur champion who withdrew Sunday because of an eye injury.Brand has been plying his trade on the Carolinas-based eGolf Professional Tour and NGA Pro Golf Tour recently. He doesn't have any wins, but has finished in the top 10 on several occasions. "I feel like I've been playing pretty well," said the former Capital High School and Marshall standout. "My game has been rounding into shape and getting better recently. I spent the winter in Florida and been playing pretty much two or three tournaments a month since I've been back."Brand, who broke through by winning the 2011 West Virginia Amateur, has consecutive runner-up finishes at the Open. He earned an exemption with his Amateur championship into that year's Greenbrier Classic PGA Tour event."I just want to add it to the resume," he said of capturing the Open. "No expectations. I'm just going out there to try and play my best golf and if I do that everything will fall into place."Bradshaw won his last mini-tour event in California, and this past week was two strokes off the lead in an eGolf event near Charlottesville, Va."I'm playing as good as I've ever played in my life," said the Bakerton native, who has won six of the last nine Opens. "I've had some really solid scores. I'd say the last eight of my nine competitive rounds I've broken 70. "My scoring average for the year is probably somewhere close to 68 or 69. I've done about five Monday qualifiers and I've finished in the top five in all five. My golf game's better than ever." The Open will feature several of the state's top golfers including: Bob Friend, the pro at The Pines in Morgantown who was runner-up at the Open in 2011; Craig Berner, the pro at Edgewood Country Club who finished fourth last year and won it in 2005; Brad Westfall, a pro who is a five-time champ; John Ross, a two-time winner; and amateur Sam O'Dell, who tied with Berner for fourth last year and was also the low amateur. O'Dell upset Carter to win last month's West Virginia Mid-Amateur Championship.nnCarter, a 13-time State Am champion and Hall of Fame inductee, pulled out due to an eye injury suffered earlier this year. The injury left Carter with muscle damage to his eye, which has caused blurred and degenerative vision."I'll be having my surgery early this week and I need to have everything ready by the time the State Amateur rolls around," Carter said in a release issued by the WVGA.Carter is hopeful to be ready to return to action in time for the PGA Tour's Greenbrier Classic. Carter earned an exemption into the event by capturing last year's State Amateur.Carter, who has never won the State Open, missed last year's championship because of a scheduling conflict. nnKen Tackett, the executive director of the WVGA, said the Parkersburg Country Club course is ready for the Open."Right now, it's prime," he said. "The fairways are in great shape. The fairway has been tightened up a bit and the greens are where you're able to cut [them] down tight and roll them. They're already really solid and it won't take much work at all to get them where we want them to be."Tackett said the course will play at par 72 and 6,900 yards. He said the redone No. 1 tee box should offer quite a start."It has similar qualities to No. 1 at Old White [with an] elevated tee," he said. "It adds about 20 yards, which puts the bunker into play and the choke point in the rough. They've built a little patio around it. It's a neat theater for golf."The Open festivities kicked off with Sunday's Coca-Cola Shootout, won by Hurricane's O'Dell. A two-session pro-am will take place today at 8:30 a.m. and 2 p.m. followed by practice rounds Tuesday.Reach Tommy R. Atkinson at firstname.lastname@example.com or 304-348-4811.

Godhra probe panel proceedings postponed
July 26, 2004 15:42 IST
Cross-examinations of police officials and further proceedings of the Godhra riot inquiry Commission was postponed on Monday following a request in this regard from the Gujarat government, which said the terms of reference and period of the Commission had been expanded recently.
The Gujarat government application seeking postponement urged the Commission to invite the public to file affidavits about riot incidents that occurred between April 1 and May 31, 2002.
Justice (retd) K G Shah, of the two-man Commission, told PTI that it would hear the state government's application on Tuesday and make further announcement about the schedule and the cross-examination later.
The Commission had summoned two senior Gujarat police officials on Monday for cross-examination but the proceedings were called off following the state government's application seeking postponement.

Hurricanes and Global Warming
Which is why I find RP Jrs latest rant on ceding the high ground odd, because he apparently approves of James Glassman at TCS who sez Katrina has nothing to do with global warming. Nothing. Approving of anything on TCS is a strange thing to do, and I can't see why this one should be approved of. It looks like some kind of reverse-fallacy to me: failing to attribute to GW doesn't do the reverse, ie it doesn't demonstrate a lack of connection. Is it perhaps the "unexcluded middle" fallacy?
Having said that, the perceptive will notice that I welcome RP Jr back onto my blogline, and Sr (and not just because I got him to nuance his nuances a bit more).

"What the BJP is demanding is determining Chidambaram's role as then Finance Minister in the spectrum scam," BJP spokesperson Ravi Shankar Prasad said.
Criticising government's move to come out in strong defence of the Home Minister, Prasad said, "It is surprising that after ...Pranab Mukherjee, now it is the turn of Kapil Sibal to appease a sulking Chidambaram."
He said, "What was the sudden need to defend Chidambaram by Kapil Sibal. Are these statements of appeasement designed to defend a sulking colleague."
Prasad charged that Chidambaram "did not take appropriate steps to ensure auction of spectrum in an honest and transparent manner."
While "over-ruling the objections of senior officers that there should be a transparent mechanism, he (Chidambaram) insisted that spectrum for 2G in 2007 be allocated at 2001 prices, inspite of a phenomenal rise in tele-density in the country," he alleged.
The BJP leader insisted this was "confirmed" by the Finance Ministry's note earlier, which was also whetted by the Prime Minister's Office. He claimed the March 25 note of the Finance Ministry had "condemned" Chidambaram's role as the then Finance Minister in spectrum pricing.

Hydraulic Institute launches viscosity correction standard
Source: ControlGlobal.com
Feb 14, 2006
By eliminating the need for interpolating graphic solutions, this standard has major technical significance and practical applications, says Gregg Romanyshyn, HIs technical director. This landmark standard will provide valuable guidance to pump manufacturers, users, and others who have an interest in the performance of rotodynamic pumps.
HI members developed the new standard along with representatives from France, Germany, Italy, Japan, and Switzerland. It also includes contributions from industry experts and veterans.
The standard covers conventional rotodynamic pumps, including open or closed impellers and single or double suction pumps. It further contains information on methodology, definitions of symbols and terms, flowcharts that outline the procedure, theoretical explanations behind the methodology, and a method for estimating net positive suction head required (NPSHR).

Dr. Dog is quickly becoming America's beloved nostalgia rock act. Slick production, three-part harmonies and Beatlesque hooks make the band a safe bet for concert-goers, music critics, and movie soundtracks. We All Belong (2007) was lauded by some, including Rolling Stone, as one of the top albums of the year—which is not surprising considering their songs go down easy, like a box of cheap wine. But underneath Scott McMicken's Lennon-induced vocal inflections We All Belong was merely a rehashing of the fabled flower generation.
The band claims that their new album, Fate, was the effort they were "destined to make". So it seems the group is destined to become mediocre '60s pop revivalists. More importantly, what Fate really shows us is that the Dr. Dog may have overstayed their welcome with a slew of songs which consist of an all too familiar formula.
Dr. Dog
(Park the Van)
US: 22 Jul 2008
UK: 21 Jul 2008
Internet release date: 15 Jul 2008
Slated for its first single "The Old Days" is, oddly enough, stylistically a virtual replicate of their 2007 single "My Old Ways", albeit with a less catchy chorus. All the ingredients are in place: repetitious piano riff, over-zealous guitar lick, chanting background vox, eventual piano-led crescendo. Even the quirky cabaret bridge can't save this one.
Probably the album's strongest selling point is the bouncy pop ballad "The Rabbit, The Bat, The Reindeer". Ironically enough, the song could probably pass for an indie rock hit circa 2005. After McMicken's first verse the simple, yet catchy, piano riff drops and a driving bass line carries the song until we are given the second—more glorified version of the first—verse. The song is standard stuff, but the fact that it doesn't get too caught up in overdubbed harmonies may be its saving grace.
The album's opener, "Breeze", is also a standout here, sort of an insincere promise of what is to come. McMicken croons sentimental about "angels in the snow" and putting "needles to the groove" over a "Rocky Racoon"-style guitar riff. At about the third verse the band even gets into Pet Sounds territory with their reverb-drenched vocal harmonies. A chorus of flutes takes us out and into what regrettably is the rest of the album.
On "Hang On", McMicken showcases his tortured Lennon impression. ("I've got blisters on my fingers!). We'll see this approach again before the album concludes. It rears its head on "The Ark", a poor take on Noah's Biblical escape route, and it's front-and-center on the slacker rock tune, "The Beach".
There's a decent three-part harmony on "From" where McMicken sings "Oh-Ohhh my love / don't you leave me / 'cause I don't want to learn how to die". The song starts off a capella and the boys back him up beautifully. It could really stand on it's own at this point but here comes the chorus: "It's like a cho choo train rolling away". You lost me there Scott, you lost me. An overly dramatic guitar solo appropriately follows, and by this time I've lost interest.
This stuff apparently plays better in a live setting, as evidences by the YouTube clips on American late night television and it's a shame the songs doesn't translate better on their albums. Their Takers and Leavers EP (2006) featured such haunting tunes as "Die Die Die" with its agonizing tobacco-stained lyrics. For now, it looks like Dr. Dog will stick to their sunny, over-produced pop songs, finding safe ground, pitching tent, and making camp for the night.

Home Ownership
Creating opportunities for home ownership is the core of what Habitat does.
Habitat volunteers work side by side with future Habitat homeowners, known as Partner Families invest hundreds of hours of their own labor – "sweat equity" – into building their homes and those of their neighbors.
Habitat sells homes to Partner Families at no profit with a zero interest loan. Because there are minimal labor costs, no profits for the builders and no interest, many Partner Families pay less per month for their Habitat home than they paid in rent for a substandard dwelling.
Increasing home ownership brings many benefits, not only to the new homeowners, but also to the neighborhood and the community at large. Some of these include better educational outcomes, increased property values, and neighborhood and community stability.

I believe the Count has it right. I don't trust the gummint for a minute. I think our masters in Washington not only look down on us serfs, I think they view Mexicans as being even lower on the social scale, so if they had to break a few Mexican eggs to make their anti-2nd Amendment omelette, I think they just viewed that as acceptable collateral damage.
What I don't think they anticipated was that one (or two, or three) of their "walked" guns might be used to kill an American LEO -- on this side of the border.

text: Hagerstown's 6-2 win sends Power home September 7, 2013 Story Share HAGERSTOWN, Md. - The Hagerstown Suns were able to pop two corks on Saturday.They first released the pressure of a tight game in the form of a three-run sixth inning.The second came off of champagne bottles in celebration of winning the South Atlantic League's Northern Division title.Hagerstown pushed across three critical runs in the sixth to extend a tenuous one-run lead and complete a yearlong quest for the division championship with a 6-2 victory over the West Virginia Power to win the best-of-3 series on Saturday at Municipal Stadium."We earned it," said Suns manager Tripp Keister. "We had a hard time doing it. We didn't play well last night, but we played well tonight. We wanted to be aggressive and grind it out."The victory moves Hagerstown into the South Atlantic League championship series against Savannah, the New York Mets affiliate. The Suns will host the first two games on Monday and Tuesday at 7:05 p.m. before heading to Georgia for games on Thursday and, if needed, Friday and Saturday.The team announced there will be free admission to Monday's game. Tony Renda and Shawn Pleffner led the way Saturday, driving in two runs each, while leadoff hitter Isaac Ballou had four hits and reached base nine straight times over the last two games of the series. Hagerstown collected 16 hits in the deciding game after losing a 6-3 heartbreaker in 11 innings on Friday."Ballou had a great series," Keister said. "He was struggling but I told him he had to be aggressive. He and Renda made a great pair at the top. Tony has been there all year and Shawn came up with the big two-out hits."The Suns broke the game open using the most innocent of Power mistakes to start a rally.Stephen Perez led off the sixth by striking out, but reached second when a wild pitch by West Virginia reliever Jason Creasy rolled into the Power dugout. Ballou followed with a single to move Perez to third. Renda fought off a two-strike pitch to right field to score Perez and put the Suns up 4-2.Pleffner followed with an RBI single to left and Wander Ramos blasted a double off the wall in center to complete the rally and chase Creasy from the game.Kylin Turnbull got the start and put up five quality innings, allowing two runs on six hits while walking one and striking out three. Ronald Pena came on to earn the win with four innings of relief, allowing just one hit while shutting off the Power.Like so many times this season, the Suns struck first with a run in the first inning. Ballou reached on an infield single off third baseman Eric Wood's glove and Renda slapped a single to right to start the game against West Virginia starter Luis Heredia. After Pleffner hit into a fielder's choice, Wander Ramos looped a one-out single to right to score Ballou.But it didn't stop the Power, which came back with two runs in the second off Turnbull.Wood led off with a single to center and took third on Raul Fortunato's double down the right-field line. Jonathan Schwind singled to left to score Wood to tie the game. Fortunato scored on Chris Diaz's one-out grounder to short to give West Virginia a 2-1 lead.Hagerstown rolled the dice with aggressive base running to tie the game in the second. Pedro Severino reached on an infield single to third. With one out, Ballou lined a shot over Walker Gourley's head. Keister waved Severino around third, but he was thrown out at the plate on a relay as he tried to barrel over Power catcher Kawika Emsley-Pai.Ballou took third on the throw and scored when Renda grounded a single along the first-base line to tie the game at 2.The Suns climbed back ahead using station-to-station play in the fourth. Stephen Perez and Ballou singled to open the inning and end the night for Heredia. Creasy came on and got Renda to hit into a broken-bat double play, moving Perez to third. Pleffner cashed in by lining a single to center to give the Suns a 3-2 lead. Renda finished with three hits, while Pleffner and Ramos had two each as the top four hitters in the Suns' batting order went 11 for 19 with six RBIs.

SPL: Celtic stroll, Aberdeen up to second
GLASGOW, Nov 18 (Reuters) - Champions Celtic strolled to a 3-0 home win over Inverness Caledonian Thistle on Saturday to extend their lead in the Scottish Premier League to 15 points.
Celtic broke the deadlock two minutes from the interval when Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink hit a half volley which deflected off Thistle defender Darren Dods and into the net.
The Dutchman made it 2-0 after 71 minutes with a 12 metre shot into the bottom right hand corner after a Paul Telfer cross and Czech Republic defender Jiri Jarosik headed the third.
Celtic top the SPL standings with 40 points from 15 games while Hearts and Rangers fight it out on Sunday with the chance to move second top as both have 22 points from 14 matches.
The only negative for Celtic was the loss of defender Gary Caldwell who limped off with a knee injury and is doubtful for Tuesday's Champions League clash at home to Manchester United.
'We will look at it but Gary looks as if he could be a problem,' Celtic manager Gordon Strachan told BBC Radio Scotland. 'He has a knee knock and could be struggling.
'But it was a fantastic performance today and I am delighted with the result.'
Aberdeen moved into second place with 25 points from 15 games after Darren Mackie's double sank visitors St Mirren 2-0.
Hibernian racked up the biggest win of the SPL season so far with a 6-1 rout at Motherwell while Kilmarnock beat Falkirk 2-1 and Dunfermline beat Dundee United 2-1 with a Gary Mason winner.

text: So I am student teaching now and my supervisor just e-mailed me to say that she talked with this principal that has a 1st grade job opening. The principal wants to know if I am interested in an interview. Wow! Couldn't be more excited, but what my boyfriend is going for we have to be a bigger city. This school is 1,000 people and no bigger town close by. It is still very early in the job search. I shouldn't settle for this should I? However, do I still go to the interview to gain experience? I really would love some advice because I am not sure what to do?
