While most appraisal management companies can greatly help lenders and appraisers make more money with less hassle by streamlining the appraisal process, the relationship between the two can end up counterproductive and costly if appraisers end up working with the wrong one.
There are a number of competent, efficient and respectable AMCs to choose from, but conversely, there are also some unprofessional and dishonest AMCs out there giving the rest a bad name.
In order to keep our industry moving forward and running smoothly, appraisers and lenders must be aware of what to look out for when selecting their trusted AMC partner.
Licensing is the biggest issue with AMCs. Currently, there are 26 states that require AMCs to be licensed. Although the remaining states are in the process of establishing their legislation and application process, they currently do not require licensing.
Licensing gives lenders and appraisers peace of mind knowing that AMCs are meeting certain standards or have to answer to state regulators. Appraisers should ask potential business partners for their AMC numbers in the states where licensing and certification is required.
If licensing is not required, then appraisers should do their homework and find out if the AMC is operating in other states that do require licensing.
Each state has a registry online so appraisers can easily pull up a list of approved AMCs and get their information straight from the state website. Also, many AMCs post their licenses directly on their corporate websites.
Another key component when choosing the right AMC is to understand the payment terms. Sadly, a major problem in our industry stems from AMCs neglecting to pay on time. If an AMC cannot give the appraiser or lender a specific timeline of when to expect payment, this fact should immediately be seen as a giant red flag.
Professional AMCs pay appraisers within 30-45 days of the completion of the report. Anything beyond 45 days—and at the very latest, 60 days—is another glaring warning sign. The appraiser should be aware that the AMC will most likely request some type of information, such as W-9s, from them so they can make timely payments.
The payment terms should be addressed specifically in the engagement letter with each order.
Another full-disclosure item that appraisers should look for on any engagement letter is the negotiation of fees. Appraisers should never put up with AMCs playing hardball by trying to negotiate fees down lower.
Also, appraisers should be wary of empty promises for volume. If the AMC tries negotiating using the tactic of offering to give a specified number of future orders if the fee is dropped, do not engage with that AMC. AMCs cannot guarantee volume; they are subject to the whims of their own clients so there is no way of knowing where their volume is going to come from.
What AMCs can say is that they will send the appraiser other orders if they get them in the area, but they cannot promise a specific number of orders within a specific time period.
Appraisers should also be cautious of AMCs who charge fees to be included on their appraiser panel. Panels are to be used to list the best quality of appraisers and have them available to handle assignments; they are not to be used as a moneymaker by AMCs to promise appraisers work.
Quality AMCs are in business to forge successful partnerships and lasting relationships with appraisers and lenders. They are in business to handle the heavy lifting of the appraisal process and enhance appraisers' income.
Unfortunately, there are some that are in business for the wrong reasons, but the good news is they can be easily identified and ignored by looking out for the aforementioned warnings.
Consult appraiser blogs (Appraisersforum.com, OREP.org and WorkingRE.com) that monitor AMCs and include appraisers' candid experiences working with them. Do your homework. Identify and avoid any red flags. Select a respectable partner. Then enjoy the rewards.

GDR: SCF Gm 5 - Bruins @ Canucks
Cam Davie
June 10 2011 09:56AM
Boy I sure hope that the Cancks get themselves summa that goal scoring goodness tonight.
See? You CAN score on Thomas. GO DO IT.

Game Day Recon: Stanley Cup Final Game 5 - Bruins @ Canucks
It's now a best-of-three. And the Canucks still have home-ice advantage.
So now they only have to do one thing: hold serve.
Broadcast Info
Game Time: 5:00 PM PT
The Intel
To paraphrase what Kevin Bieksa said after Game 3, "This isn't Champions League. It's not scored on aggregate." That's a good thing, because they were outscored 12-1 in Boston. But now it doesn't matter if they were outscored by 11 goals, or if they lost both games 2-1 in triple overtime. The series is still tied 2-2.
Fans are panicking and media is salivating because Luongo looks fallible, the power play looks inept and the defense looks confused. Just like in Games 4 and 5 against Chicago. In fact, I'd argue that the Canucks game 4 against Boston was a big improvement. They looked overmatched in the first two periods, but it wasn't grotesque. They stay disciplined, turned away from scrums, and didn't engage in any pissing contests. They got plenty of shots. All good things.
The problem is that they got very few proper scoring chances, especially on the power play. And that is ABSOLUTELY where they need to focus their efforts and energy tonight. A SINGLE power play goal tonight from the Sedins and they are back. They get back their confidence. They get back their feeling that Thomas can be beat. But in order to do that, they have to turn their power play opportunities into SCORING opportunities, something they didn't do in Boston. They let Thomas act like the king of the roost in his crease and they were either too close to him or too far away. They need to stay close to Thomas, but not on top of him. Far enough away to pounce on the rebounds that Thomas gives up. And they need to simplify their power play. They're overthinking, overpassing. It needs to be pass-pass-shoot-rebound.
As for the defense... I REALLLLLLLLLY hope the Bowness is leading his guys on drills on how to get the puck out of their own zone. Their inability to clear pucks effectively just KILLED them in Boston. This is precisely why I hope (and want) AV to switch out Alberts and put Tanev in with Ballard. Tanev plays smart, simple and patient and that is EXACTLY what the Canucks D needs to be tonight. And they need to quit playing the puck along the boards. The Bruins are just waiting for pucks there. Waiting to put the squeeze on the Canucks forwards along the wall. The Canucks D needs to take a breath, Make a pass straight up to a forward, who can take the puck with speed. They need to stop forcing their own forwards to fight for pucks along the boards, before it's even out of the zone. North-South passes.
As for Luongo.. listen - I am not on a Luongo bashing kick. I honestly don't feel that much of what happened in Boston was his fault. In fact, I have Luongo third down the "blame chart" - 1. Power Play. 2. Defense. 3. Luongo. Out of twelve goals, he let in two bad ones. And he should have even BEEN in the net for the last 4 goals in Game 3. He SHOULD have been pulled in the second intermission. As long as he gets back to playing his game, and the team in front of them simply DOES their JOB, he'll be fine. He'll be more than fine.
The Canucks have plenty of inspiration and lessons to draw on for tonight's game. This scenario is eerily similar to their series against Chicago. They just need to play with calm. Get back to playing the brand of Canucks hockey that made them so successful throughout the playoffs. Be smart. Be disciplined. Be quick. Be physical. We all know they CAN do it... they just have to put it into action... and also score a goddamn power play goal, for christ's sake. That would really help.
The Three Keys
Here are the three keys for the Vancouver Canucks tonight:
1. The Sedins have to have a GAME. A BIG game. This needs to be their show now.
2. Get the puck out of your own zone. 1-2 passes MAX to get it out. Be patient, but quick.
3. Quit skating arounf Thomas. Stay in front of him, not on top of him. Get those rebounds.

How does it feel to know EVERYONE wants you guys to fail? Boston is Canada's team. You guys are just a bunch of whiney pussies pulling hair and biting. A true discrace to the NHL.

As opposed to the 'classy' Bruins who give fans the finger, throw water bottles at 'em and take gratuitous runs on defenceless players near the boards. Yup, the Bruins definitely are a credit to the NHL.
@Patrick Johnston
lol at you calling out on gratuitous runs on defenceless players, torres anyone?!? #hypocrite
June 10 2011, 05:02PM
lol at you calling out on gratuitous runs on defenceless players, torres anyone?!? #hypocrite
Did I deny that the Canucks have dirtbags? You're right, they do...congratulations for pointing that out!
Brent G. implied that because the Canucks are lacking in class, that everyone should cheer for the Bruins. I'm just pointing out the absurdity of such a position.
You want to cheer for the Bruins, go ahead do it because you like how they play, just don't do it because of some belief that they are a 'classier' team.
@Patrick Johnston
you were making a comparasion which obviously failed. mocking me for pointing that out while you do the same to me is also a lol. #hypocrite
the only difference between most of those actions are what takes place against players and that's all that matters when you call a team "classy" and there is no such thing as a "classy" team anyways but there will always be one classier then the other, in this case the bruins are in this series.
June 10 2011, 06:07PM
huh? you called me a hypocrite, I pointed out that you were accusing me of things I *HADN'T* said.
how were Ference/Chara's actions any different from Rome/Torres's?
@Patrick Johnston
lol? i didn't accuse you of things you haven't said... you accused me of pointing out the obvious where you did to.
Ference/Chara's actions probably aren't very different from Rome/Torres's but burrows/lapierre/kesler/beiska? because biting, hair pulling and diving are very cool.

It looks like Golf Digest has unearthed the big reason President Obama is spending Presidents Day weekend in Palm City, Fla.
He's getting golf lessons from one of the sport's top coaches.
Butch Harmon, who has worked with Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, and other golf stars, will school Obama, as will son Claude Harmon III.
Palm City -- where the president will spend the weekend -- is the home of The Floridian Golf Club and the Harmon School of Golf.
This won't be Harmon's first presidential lesson.
"I've played golf with Ike, Nixon, Ford and President Bush 41," Harmon told Golf Digest. "I never played with President Clinton."
As for Obama's upcoming lessons, Harmon said: "It'll be interesting. I know the president is a real keen golfer. I'm looking forward to it. It should be fun."
Also from Golf Digest:
"The President's host, club owner Jim Crane, also owns the Houston Astros. He received a call last week playing the AT&T National Pro-Am about the President's interest in his facility. As part of his remodeling of the club, Crane hired Butch Harmon to design and build a state-of-the-art learning facility that includes a gym, indoor hitting bays, launch monitors, a putting lab and the latest in video cameras.
"'He's a left-handed player, I've seen film of his swing before,' said Harmon, who analyzed Obama's swing when the President first took office 'It'll be fun to get him down in the learning center, show him stuff in his golf game and see how he takes it to the course.
"'He's just like all of us that play golf. He wants to get better.'"

It's Lily from Troop 8369, here to tell you about our Service Unit's Battleship Overnight!
My troop got to the Battleship on Friday after school and had dinner while we waited to get on the ship. While we waited, we sang and played games. When we got on the ship, we picked our bunks--they hang from chains on the ceiling.
We did some detective work that gave us clues to solve. We solved the clues by taking a tour of the whole ship. It's really big! It was like a floating city -- there was even a shoe shop and a ice cream store! There was a lot of historical information and it was sort of like being in a maze.
We stayed up late and whispered when lights went out. It was like a really cool sleepover. My mom shined her flashlight in our faces to tell us to go to sleep. We got up early and cleaned up. Then we went out for beignets and hot chocolate, and then we went home and crashed. If you get to go to the Battleship, I think you will like it.

SailFin-CAFE GreetingService Demo
By Mohit Gupta on Jun 17, 2010
Player p = session.createParticipant(Player.class, "myPlayer");
Conversation conv = session.createConversation(p);
CommunicationBeans can be used to listen media events, DTMF signals and many other events, based on which application logic can be decided.
Listener for media event when a player(announcement) is finished would be:
@CommunicationEvent(type = CommunicationEvent.Type.MEDIAENDED)
public void mediaEnded() {
----- application logic ------
DTMF Signal is intercepted through CommunicationEvent type MessageArrived:
void handleMessage() {
DtmfSignal ds = (DtmfSignal) ctx.getMessage();
String signal = ds.getSignal();
At the same time Communication API makes it very handy to replace participants in a conversation. eg. Replacing a user with media group or vice-versa.
All this makes it quite simple to write applications like GreetingService. The basic idea of a GreetingService is to allow users to record messages to be played to their friends at a particular date and time.
Following image illustrates the above:
Greeting Service Example
In the above scenario Alice wants to wish Bob, so she logs in and schedules a greeting for Bob. GreetingService calls Alice for recording the message, CommunicationBean is used to play initial announcement and receive DTMF signals to start/stop recording the message.

Hi everyone:
A week ago or so I asked some questions regarding fixing the cast iron drain for my toilet. After reading the answers from this site, I decided it was a job for a pro.
I'm so glad I went that direction. The plumber was able to save all the cast iron pipe, replacing only the flange, and re-sealing the join in the basement. This was a repair I couldn't possibly have done myself, as I simply don't have the tools or knowledge to work with lead.
While we were at it, we decided to replace the old toilet (original 1964 high flow) with a Toto Drake. So far, we're very happy.
Thanks to all who responded to my posts!

Minnesota Vikings rookie safety Harrison Smith should expect to hear from Roger Goodell's office later this week.
The first-round pick from Notre Dame was ejected in the second quarter of Sunday's game against the Tennessee Titans after shoving a referee following a skirmish with Titans receiver Nate Washington.
VIDEO:Another NFL safety displays bad behavior
Following an Antoine Winfield interception, Smith and several Titans players kept jawing at each other as officials tried to break up the group. Restrained by one official, Smith attempted to push him to the side to get back towards the fray.
It won't help Smith that Goodell was in the audience at the Metrodome. Smith already received a $21,000 fine for an illegal hit earlier in the preseason.
"I've lost my head before," Smith said, via Tom Pelissero of ESPN Twin Cities, "but I've never had an incident with an official. I completely apologize for that. ...
"Right after I moved the ref, I realized it was a ref, and I realized that that was stupid and I should never do that, Smith said. "Stupid by me. I should never put the officials in a position like that. I should never touch them. I know that."

Time for an introduction, I suppose.
My name is Kåre Albert Lie, and I live in Norway. I first got interested in buddhism around 1970. I studied Pali on my own (using mainly Warder), and later Pali and Sanskrit at the University in Oslo. I got my first real introduction to meditation from the Burmese teacher U Janaka.
I have translated several Pali and Sanskrit texts into Norwegian, and I have also written some books on meditation, abhidhamma and other aspects of buddhism ... also in Norwegian. At present I hope that my translation of the Digha Nikaya will be published this year, and I have started translating the Majjhima Nikaya - a task that I hope to finish in two or three years.
So I'm mainly a Theravada follower. But I also find inspiration in parts of the Mahayana, and I have translated the Bodhicaryavatara into Norwegian, and also published a book with a translation of Vasubandhu's Madhyantavibhaga, with an introduction and comments by myself and a friend who was a teacher in the Thich Nhat Hanh tradition.

Re: Hello from Norway
Welcome friend !
Abandoning Dharma is, in the final analysis, disparaging the Hinayana because of the Mahayana; favoring the Hinayana on account of the Mahayana; playing off sutra against tantra; playing off the four classes of the tantras against each other; favoring one of the Tibetan schools—the Sakya, Gelug, Kagyu, or Nyingma—and disparaging the rest; and so on. In other words, we abandon Dharma any time we favor our own tenets and disparage the rest.

Disruption in Action: The Anatomy of a Goal.
Patrick Johnston
February 12 2012 02:20PM
We know they score goals, but how do they do it?
(Photo: John Russell/Getty Images)
In a follow-up to my previous post about the purpose of offence - here's an example how 'disrupting the defence' leads to scoring chances (and sometimes goals).
It involves the Sedins and their new pal Byron Bitz (otherwise known as the man who can everything).
This is the 3rd goal for the Canucks from Tuesday's first period. In the first frame, we see Byron Bitz down and the Sedins driving the puck up the boards, AWAY from the net. It's pretty obvious what they are looking to do, they are looking to drag the Preds' defence apart and also create space to play in too.
The Predators' defence is already in trouble; Daniel has put himself in a spot which is meant to confuse the defenders coverage game. It's right here where the scoring chance is created - two touches of the puck BEFORE Daniel gets his shot.
Frame two shows us just how much trouble the Predators are in. Look carefully, but don't get distracted by Daniel changing direction in perfect time with Henrik throwing the puck back around behind the net; focus instead on the three Predators who are fixated on Henrik and the puck. This is 'puck-watching' at its finest. Daniel's earlier support drove both players' eyes away from him and towards the puck. He's going to reap the rewards from this.
Now the puck is at Byron Bitz, who we can see is in a very strong position. He's a big guy who, we are learning, knows how to use his size to protect the puck. The two Predators defenders are scrambling - they know that Daniel's beaten them.
Remember how your coach always told you to put your stick on the ice? Daniel listened. His goal will come a second or so later (it's credited as 1:16). As noted above, this goal (or at least the scoring chance it resulted from) was really scored at 1:21 when Daniel's movement away from the puck caused a fatal disruption for the defence.
As you can see, Daniel now has a clear path for the tap in, and when Bitz makes the pass from the behind the net cleanly: Rinne doesn't have a chance.

There are basically two ways to consider the motto "Be Prepared." There is one based solely on the complexities of reality and there is one based on your mind's perception of reality. As any regular reader of this column (thanks Mom) should know, I have no basic understanding of reality.
I bring this up only because a couple of weeks ago I decided that on Sunday I would take my children to church. It should be noted that I regularly make this decision and only occasionally follow through with said decision. But on almost every weekend that my children are home I tell my them that we are going to church. Immediately after making such a statement a number of things happen: My daughter makes a mental note not to let me forget such a decision, my son makes a mental note to do his best to sleep in until noon and I make a mental note to live up to my decision while secretly hoping that we all sleep in until noon.
Because of that our attendance at church in the past has been sporadic at best. But endeavoring to turn over a new leaf I decided that this time there would be no sleeping in. On Saturday night I went to sleep with that thought in mind, reasonably confident that we were ready. We were prepared. So when Sunday morning arrived I woke my kids up several hours before church and we had a nice morning together. I even decided that I would make us a breakfast of pancakes before church. So while my children took their baths I stumbled around the kitchen trying to make pancakes that actually looked and tasted like pancakes. Realizing that if I allowed my children to eat pancakes with their church clothes on they would be (accidently or not) so covered with syrup by the time we left for church that we would stick to the pews, I instructed them to put on some sweats until after they had eaten.
With breakfast finished, I went to take my shower. Before doing so I asked my son to look at his church clothes and tell me if they needed ironing. He did so and I trusted his judgment, which was a mistake on my part, because I should have asked him if his clothes were wrinkled, not if they needed ironing. There's a subtle difference there somewhere which I don't even pretend to understand. But I didn't ask the right question so I accepted my son's assurance that his clothes did not need ironing on face value.
After showering and ironing my own clothes I went into the living room to check on the progress of my children. They were both dressed and putting on their shoes and I was rather proud of the fact that it was still 15 minutes before church started. This could possibly be a Davis first, we would make it to church on time.
But then I asked my daughter to stand up so I could take a look at her. When she did so my jaw dropped because my beautiful little daughter was wearing a miniskirt. It hadn't always been a miniskirt mind you, but it most definitely was one now and I asked her just who had given her permission to grow so much, to which she just shrugged.
"Well, you can't wear that to church," I said and quickly followed it up with "You can't wear that anywhere." So we rushed to her bedroom, threw open the closet door and began a mad scramble to find her a skirt that she could wear. It was now 10 minutes before church was supposed to start.
We finally found her an outfit she could wear and I left her in her room to change and went back to the living room to check on my son. When I asked him to stand up I sighed, let my head drop and slowly shook it back and forth (which in technical terms is called The Parental Resignation Maneuver), because my son's clothes looked as if they had been wadded up into a tiny ball and stuffed into the darkest corner of the closet.
By this time my daughter was dressed and church had officially started. For a moment I considered the possibility that we should all just go back to sleep until noon, but then I decided that no, we had come this far, we would go to church.
After arriving at church we stood outside the chapel looking inside and again I thought that we should have just slept in. Because the only seats left in the chapel were on the front row. As everyone knows, the front row of a chapel is No Man's Land. I have yet to be to any meeting of any kind where the front row is voluntarily occupied...especially in church. When you go to church you always fill the chapel from the back to the front, never from the front to the back. That way anyone who is late for church has to walk all the way to the front to find a seat. It's cruel and entertaining all at the same time, as long as you aren't the one who is late.
Because of that I think that chapels should be designed with a pulpit at the front and the back of the chapel and with seats without backs. That way the bishop could walk out and step up to the pulpit with the most people gathered around it. Then all he would have to do is ask everyone to turn around and the meeting could begin.
But since that is not reality my children and I found ourselves walking to the front of the chapel and taking our seats on the front row. Sitting there I came to another decision. Before the next Sunday arrived we would all buy new Sunday clothes...some in the wrinkle-free variety.

Dear Editor,
I had the privilege of attending Brandon Singleton's piano recital. What a talented young may Brandon is. And he is also delightful. He entertained the audience with five pieces that he composed himself. And, of course, he played one of my favorites "Clair de Lune" with the talent only an artist has.
Brandon also performed, in full costume, a love song, and for his final piece, a duet with his sister Megan, "Sleigh Ride," they both dressed up.
I appreciate the talent Brandon has, and I appreciated very much the delightful Christmas present that this performance was.

The look of a high end bootie
"Bought these because I love the super high brand that they sell at those chic department stores and NYC boutiques, but I hate the high end price tag. These actually look better since they don't have a seam across the front. Really excellent for the price to mimic that style. Fit is true and the chunky, stable heel makes them easy to move in."

"These boots are exactly what is pictured, great color that matches any outfit and being a suede material is not an issue at all because it stays clean, even for a light color. The boot fits true to size, I have to wear two pairs of sock to get the perfect comfortable fit for me, but very comfy no matter what. Easily an every day boot to grab and go for a busy lifestyle and still look good! I would buy it in every color if there was more colors available. Very glad I purchased them, and I know I already got my money's worth with how much I wear them!"

With DAB+ and Internet radio beginning to pick up speed in Australia, digital radio maker, Pure Australia today launched a slew of digital and internet radio products, to take advantage of its Cloud based music service, FlowSongs.
Graeme Redman, managing director of Pure Australasia, said it was the start of an exciting journey for the company and its customers, with FlowSongs providing a bridge between music discovered on digital, FM and Internet radio, and the ability to own that music.
Nearly 60 percent of the population in Australia are already exposed to digital radio broadcasts, but DAB+ broadcasts are so far confined to the five main capital cities.
Internet radio, however, which is also digital, is aiming to engender a more personalised relationship with a broader market, and can be accessed by anyone with an internet connection.
Listeners will be able to access the new service through any one of eight radios, including Sensia, Contour, Avanti Flow, One Flow, Oasis Flow, Siesta Flow, and Evoke Flow, along with the soon-to-be released Sirocco550, and future models.
FlowSongs has been available to UK listeners for some time, with Aussies now being able to buy tracks directly from the UK site, to be managed within the company's revamped radio and media portal, the Pure Lounge, which acts as a comprehensive online music store, claimed to be the third largest music catalogue available.
Will Page, chief economist at PRS (UK) for Music, said the service can be likened to the birth of YouTube, by giving fans instant gratification, while ensuring that both the songwriter and artist get paid, which also goes some way to reverse music piracy.
The Lounge, which can be accessed at thelounge.com comprises innovative search facilities, while the store lets users buy tracks and manage playlists in a highly personalised way, while being listened to on any of the company's digital and internet connected radio range.
Redman said the Lounge will quickly become the portal of choice for Internet media hunters.
"Effectively it is becoming the 'Google' of Internet radio portals," he said.
The service is accessed by registering the Flow radio on the Lounge, and opening up an account with a credit or debit card.
When users hear the track they like, they simply select the FlowSongs option to identify the track, artist, album and price, and key in their PIN to purchase it.
In addition to being streamed off internet-connected digital radios, the songs can also be downloaded in high quality MP3 format to a PC or Mac to be added to the user's MP3 collection.
Although being purchased from a UK site, Pure says annual subscription and individual track prices will be in line with local market rates and will depend on the publisher.
FlowSongs and the online music store will be available to Australian users from May.

Top Doctor Warns Of Cell Phones Causing Cancer, Cites Upcoming Data

Could cell phones increase your risk of cancer?
A rather black sheep topic in the medical community is
whether cell phones cause cancer
. The weak electromagnetic fields and transmission sent off by the devices are something that many users expose themselves to numerous times daily. One difficulty in determining the amount of possible danger is that such effects would likely be long term and cell phone use has been around for two decades, with heavy use only coming in the late nineties. With cell phones threatening to replace the land phone lines nationwide the issue is causing growing concern.
It does not help that the few early studies have shown seemingly contradictory results,
some showing no risk
, some showing significant risks, others showing specialized but less sweeping effects, which could be detrimental (ie. effects on only certain cancers, cancer characteristics). Still the current evidence supporting the view that mobile phones may cause cancer, combined with the results of several unreleased studies were enough to convince top cancer doc, Dr. Ronald B. Herberman, director of the University of Pittsburgh Cancer Institute to
warn his faculty and staff to limit their cell phone use
because of cancer risks.
While the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has remained unconcerned about the threat, Doctor Herberman feels the evidence is stacking up. He says the possible threat, particularly to children is to serious to adopt a "wait and see" approach. He states, "Really at the heart of my concern is that we shouldn't wait for a definitive study to come out but err on the side of being safe rather than sorry later."
Doctor Herberman's statement is the first time a head of a major academic cancer research institution has vocally supported the idea of a cell phone-cancer link. Many think that it will have significant impacts at other institutions and in general public opinion. In his memo he states that children should only use cell phones for emergencies due to greater risk on their developing brains. The memo went out to his institution's over 3000 faculty and staff members.
In the memo Doctor Herberman suggests that there is evidence that keeping the cell phone away from the head or use of speakerphone or a wireless headset can help reduce users risk. He also warns to avoid public use on public facilities like buses or subways as it exposes other to the EM radiation in a public health hazard
analogous to, but perhaps not comparable to, secondhand smoke
Despit the fact that the topic has not been widely discussed or addressed among brain specialists there have been a growing number of studies looking at the issue. Most have concluded against there being a threat. French and Norwegian studies, as well as a 2008 University of Utah analysis of nine U.S. studies all found no clear risk of brain cancer increases. However as the University of Utah analysis points out, "The potential elevated risk of brain tumors after long-term cellular phone use awaits confirmation by future studies."
The FDA's website officially states, "If there is a risk from these products -- and at this point we do not know that there is -- it is probably very small."
However Doctor Herberman believes that there is a "growing body of literature linking long-term cell phone use to possible adverse health effects including cancer." He continues, "Although the evidence is still controversial, I am convinced that there are sufficient data to warrant issuing an advisory to share some precautionary advice on cell phone use."
Devra Lee Davis, the director of the university's center for environmental oncology was a key advocate of the stance. She states, "The question is, do you want to play Russian roulette with your brain? I don't know that cell phones are dangerous. But I don't know that they are safe."
Both she and Doctor Herberman reference the results of Interphone, a massive ongoing research project involving 13 nations. The research published to date in peer reviewed journals has been less alarming but cautionary, and Doctor Herberman believes more alarming results are surfacing. However the research has come under fire by the National Research Council in the U.S. for its "selection bias", requiring brain tumor victims to recall how many times they used cell phones over certain periods, which is considered to be questionable in accuracy.
The largest fully completed study, from the Journal of the National Cancer Institute in 2006 tracked 420,000 Danish cell phone users and found no clear link between cell phones and cancer. A more recent French study found no significant risk of three major types of nervous system tumors, but did find an increased risk for one type of brain tumor among heavy users that needed to be verified.
Dan Catena, a spokesman for the American Cancer Society is neutral on the topic stating, "By all means, if a person feels compelled that they should take precautions in reducing the amount of electromagnetic radio waves through their bodies, by all means they should do so. But at the same time, we have to remember there's no conclusive evidence that links cell phones to cancer, whether it's brain tumors or other forms of cancer."
Joe Farren, a spokesman for the CTIA-The Wireless Association says that his organization is concerned that "misinformation" may be spread about cell phones. He states, "When you look at the overwhelming majority of studies that have been peer reviewed and published in scientific journals around the world, you'll find no relationship between wireless usage and adverse health affects."
Some studies do support the conclusion, though.
A study in Finland found that cell phone users of 10 years or more were 40 percent more likely to get a brain tumor on the side of the head they usually hold their phone. A follow up study in Sweden indicate this risk to be closer to four times as great.
In February,
reported in a study appearing in a U.S. medical journal, which indicated that
heavy cell phone use raised the risk of some tumors as much as 50 percent
. Cancers of the salivary gland in particular were found to be the most commonly induced type. This study differed in that it looked at the effects of long term use. Also it was among the first studies to examine cancer rates in other organs besides the brain.
"If they're going to pirate somebody, we want it to be us rather than somebody else." -- Microsoft Business Group President Jeff Raikes

August 2, 2010 — Automatic enrollment in the Thrift Savings Plan has officially begun. Any federal employee hired as of August 1, 2010 will be automatically enrolled in the TSP, the federal government's 401k plan.
Greg Long, executive director of the Federal Retirement Thrift Investment Board and Tom Trabucco, director of external affairs, spoke about the change on today's For Your Benefit program hosted by Bob Leins and Tammy Flanagan.
All new hires will be enrolled in the TSP's G Fund at a three percent contribution rate.
"For every new participant we send a welcome letter. And for everyone who is automatically enrolled, it will be a customized welcome letter letting them know the phone numbers, the website address, and some basic material about the TSP and how to use it," Long says.

New TSP participants unsure of how to manage their funds or what funds they should invest in, are urged to look at the L Funds.
"The message we deliver to our participants is if you don't have the time, if you don't feel comfortable making the decisions of which baskets, which funds, you want to put your eggs in, and then on an ongoing basis figure out how many eggs in each basket and how to move that over time, the way we've responded to that is to create the Lifecycle Funds, the L Funds. Figure out which year you're going to need the money and that's the fund which is most likely appropriate for you," Long says.
Long reminds investors they can go online to the revamped TSP website, TSP.gov, to manage their funds. While participants must log-in to the site to see their personal TSP accounts, access to the latest return rates and educational materials on the TSP are available to anyone without a log-in.
EDITOR'S NOTE: During the show, the lockbox loan payment feature is discussed. Please note that the lockbox loan payment feature is available to participants who enter non-pay status or those who are activated for military service. It is not available to those who simply separate from federal service with an outstanding loan. Those individuals must repay the outstanding loan balance within 90 days of the date when the TSP is notified of the separation by the employing agency. If payment is not made by that time a taxable distribution will be declared.

Wish I could have gotten black
"So I fell in love with these shoes in black but my size was not available so I figured I'd take a chance with the congac color. The shoes fit very true to size. They were a perfect fit. However, both of the owls were slightly crooked and I just didn't like the congac against my skin color. If I could have gotten them in black I probably would have just dealt with the slightly crooked owls or fixed them on my own but I ended up returning these. So sad. They're so cute!"

American Heart Month Inspires Everyday Changes
Hot Tub Hydrotherapy Can Be a Step on the Path to Wellbeing
At Jacuzzi® Hot Tubs, we see a connection between making good choices for the sake of your heart health and the positive benefits of hot tubs. Experts tell us that heart disease is preventable and controllable. Eating a healthy diet, getting your blood pressure checked, keeping your weight in a healthy range, and exercising are all recommended, along with no smoking and limiting the use of alcohol.
But where do you start, and how do you stay motivated along the way? This is where hot tub hydrotherapy comes in.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says taking small steps on the path to better heart health is the way to go. Here's a comparison of what the CDC recommends, and how Jacuzzi® Hot Tubs hydrotherapy can support your efforts.
"Don't become overwhelmed."
Jacuzzi® Tip: Hot tub hydrotherapy can relax your mind and body after a stressful day, renew your energy, and improve your mood. It's easier to resist the urge to calm the nerves with "stress" eating, and to take a walk after dinner, when you've had some time to unwind in your hot tub.
"Don't go it alone."
Jacuzzi® Tip: The CDC says "The journey is more fun when you have company," and we agree. Sharing hot tub time with family and friends helps you connect with those who provide support for (and a pleasant break from) your efforts to build healthy habits.
"Don't get discouraged."
Jacuzzi® Tip: It's going to take some time to reach your goals for a healthier heart, and we all know how hard it is to stay motivated when you're feeling tired and sluggish. A hydrotherapeutic massage has been shown to boost circulation and promote a good night's sleep, leaving you better prepared to face the challenges of the day.
"Reward yourself."
Jacuzzi® Tip: Having fun decreases stress, which has been cited as a contributing factor in heart disease. Kick back in your backyard hot tub with someone you love on Valentine's Day, for example, and you'll probably find yourself laughing and talking more easily than you would in a crowded restaurant.
Why not honor American Heart Month by supporting a healthier way of life for you and your family?

Comfy but smelly
"I have the most sensitive feet in the world and these are the most comfortable flats I have ever owned. That being said, my feet sweat and the insoles just keep in odor, no matter what powder or spray I use on my feet. I washed the inserts and shoes a few times, but it doesn't help and then the inserts fall apart. If you need a shoe that is comfortable on your feet, these are it - I just have to find inserts to replace the ones that come with the shoes."

115 V2 flat
"Love these! I wear an orthotic and finding cute shoes that fit with my brace is very difficult. these seem to run slightly wide, and they fit perfectly! They look very cute, I can see them being easy to dress up or wear casually. I wore them all day today and my feet feel great.The insole is reversible, which I find a little odd, but with my brace I have to take the insole out anyway.So far I love these shoes and would order a second pair!"

The WORST Shoes Ever
"These shoes are perfect on paper, but on your feet they're a mess! The insoles slide out and around all over the place in the shoe. I have no idea why someone would think an interchangeable sole would do anything less. I really wanted these to work but had to return them due to the fact that the annoyance of the slipping of the insert was driving me insane."

A Palestinian Nest with No Babies
Riadh Abu Eid checks his mobile phone while standing on the rubble of his demolished home in Lod, Israel. (photo: Robyn Carolyn Price)
A hummingbird's nest sits in a high branch of the ficus tree on my porch in Los Angeles. Knitting together twigs, leaves, and small scraps, a mama bird has prepared a home for the babies she expects this spring.
I thought about that nest when I saw the ruins of the Abu Eid home in Lod.
This past December, the Israeli police demolished the Abu Eid's home, and six others on the street, because the families did not have building permits for an area that is zoned "agricultural" instead of "residential." Authorities acted despite the fact that the families have lived in the neighborhood for years and have repeatedly sought but been refused permits. Meanwhile, adjacent sites have been reclassified as "residential" for an Israeli housing development and a Jewish school.
Standing on the ruins of the Abu Eid's home, I imagined the slabs of broken cement, bound together by a tangle of brown steel rods, as the building blocks of a nightmare nest. Its hollows are filled with a brown door, a flattened washing machine, and a plastic chair; its sides built up with a white sneaker, a tattered blanket, and a pink blouse with lace trim.
Tragic yet compelling, the smashed house bespeaks the home/no home predicament of Israel's Palestinian citizens. An art project befitting an inscrutable God, this nest will hold no babies come spring.
