"Ryan is a talented athlete whose leadership and teamwork qualities have made him a standout at Providence Catholic High School," said John Myers, Director of Strategic Communications, Marketing and Outreach, U.S. Army Accessions Command. "Only the strongest wear the Army colors, and Ryan possesses similar mental, emotional and physical strengths to Army Strong Soldiers. We are proud to honor all of the U.S. Army All-American Bowl players and congratulate each of them on their selection."
The 6-foot-6, 270-pounder bolsters an impressive roster for the U.S. Army All-American contest. Ward is currently rated as the #47 offensive tackle in the country by Scout.com, making him a 3-star prospect.
Ward is committed to Iowa.
Scout Eval: A big, strong offensive lineman who will get better as he matures and adds some strength. He has long arms and plays very aggressively, with good technique. This is exactly the type of offensive lineman that Iowa has had an abundance of success developing in years past. He is a hard working, disciplined offensive lineman who only needs to add some bulk to his frame.

Served with dignity, courage

All I can say is I've found the best tasting pasta salad I've ever eaten. At first I thought the canned (I used jarred) mushrooms would be nasty in the salad. Who would have know they would be the star ingredient....tasty and addictive with just the right flavors coming together. I'm not an olive eater so I made the salad without....didn't miss anything! Will make this again and again for sure!

Trina Solar Ltd.'s (TSL, K3KD.SG) second-quarter loss narrowed as the Chinese solar-products maker posted revenue growth that beat expectations and lower operating expenses.
American depositary shares were up 3.2% to $7 in premarket trading as the results beat analyst expectations and the company raised its shipment estimates for the year. The shares were up 56% this year through Monday's close.
The company said Tuesday that it now expects to ship between 2.3 gigawatts and 2.4 gigawatts of photovoltaic modules, up from two gigawatts to 2.1 gigawatts.
Trina, like other solar companies, had struggled as prices fell amid tough competition, a glut of supply and weak demand from Europe, the industry's biggest market.
Yet while the Chinese-dominated solar industry and the European Union have failed to reach a compromise on exports and tariffs, China itself has increased solar demand. There has also been consolidation in the industry, along with a spate of bankruptcies.
Chief Executive Jifan Gao on Tuesday said the company had "achieved record quarterly shipment numbers" in the second quarter, as it experienced strong demand from China, the U.S., India and Japan.
Trina also said it continued to trim costs, following through its plans from last year to streamline its business. The company said last year it planned to separate its photovoltaic module and systems units, in a push to cut costs amid an increasingly competitive solar photovoltaic industry.
For the quarter, Trina Solar reported a loss of $33.7 million, or 47 cents an ADS, versus a year-before loss of $92.1 million, or $1.30 an ADS. The latest quarter's results included an impact of 12 cents an ADS from an accounts receivable provision and a per-ADS charge of 13 cents for fixed assets that had ceased to be used.
Revenue increased 27% to $440.7 million.
Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters recently forecast a loss of 57 cents an ADS on revenue of $375 million.
Gross margin widened to 11.6% from 8.4%, in line with Trina's recent raised estimate of 11% to 12%. For the current quarter, Trina projected gross margin would be in the low double digits in percentage terms.
Operating expenses fell 30% from a year ago, but grew 69% from the first quarter to $75.1 million.
Shipments rose 54% to 647 megawatts from a year earlier and increased 65% from the prior quarter on what the company called robust global demand. Trina earlier this month raised its second-quarter shipment guidance by 130 megawatts on each end to a range of 630 megawatts to 660 megawatts. For the current quarter, the company projected shipments of 650 megawatts to 680 megawatts of photovoltaic modules.

Written with Rachel Franklin Weekley
In 1936, the twenty counties of northwest Wisconsin cooperated in a tourist brochure that promoted the region as "Indian Head Country." The name was derived from the shape of Wisconsin's St. Croix borderland that appeared to the imaginative as the silhouette of a human profile. Pierce County was the chin, St. Croix County the mouth, and Burnett County formed a prominent "Roman" nose. For the tourist boosters the choice of "Indian Head" was obvious. Not only did the large nose suggest the Indian profile on the "Buffalo" nickel then in circulation, the Indian was the symbol of all that was uniquely American. The Indian was a symbol of wild, unrestrained nature. Never for a moment did the tourist promoters think of labeling the twenty county area "Swedish Head," or "Polish Head" country. Such a label was, of course, ludicrous even if it did call to mind some of the people who had devoted their lives to the unsuccessful effort to bring agriculture to the cutover. That history was to too recent, too painful, too prosaic. It would be as untrampled nature a romantic, even ridiculous impossibility given the history of logging and farming that the St. Croix region would be sold to the public.
As the St. Croix River began its emergence from wilderness to a developed and settled region, American attitudes towards nature and the wilderness were in a process of transformation. During the colonial era, America was seen, on the one hand, as a land of abundance and a refuge from Old World ills, but its primeval forests were also seen as a hostile wilderness filled with savage beasts and men. While it bestowed bounty on those able to meet its challenges, nature was a harsh taskmaster and it extracted a heavy price from those less fit. What enabled Americans in the first half of the nineteenth century to change their perspective on nature was the industrial revolution. Man became the master of nature instead of its victim. The industrial revolution, however, also scarred and even destroyed nature's beauty and exposed its fragility. At the hands of man nature was no longer to be feared, but cherished. [1]
This appreciation of nature had its roots in the eighteenth century Enlightenment when the natural world was held up as inspiration and a model for social organization. If human society followed the laws of nature instead of the dictates of the artificial, superstitious inequalities stemming from the medieval world of feudalism and traditional religion, it could find peace and harmony. These beliefs found expression through political, economic, social, and artistic channels. But whatever the ultimate aim, nature had to be experienced first hand. In eighteenth century England the term "picturesque" came to describe a natural scene that depicted the beautiful and evoked the sublime. This perspective on nature inspired the popular artistic genre of landscape painting. This glorification of nature continued into the early nineteenth century Romantic Movement with its reaction against the ugliness of the industrial revolution. Nature was not only beautiful, sublime and a guide to social order, but also a source of spiritual renewal for people severed from their rural roots in ugly urban cities.
In the United States the Romantic Movement developed its own unique perspective on nature. The English writer William Gilpin introduced to Americans the practice of rambling about the countryside in search of the beautiful and sublime and made "picturesque travel" a popular recreational pastime. It was trumpeted as a way to exercise both the mind and the body. Gilpin's tours of England's North and Lake Countries were used as models for American expeditions. The sparsely settled American landscape was ripe for "picturesque travel." The unspoiled vistas, mountains, valleys, lakes, and rivers came to be considered America's cathedrals and works of art that rivaled the manmade art treasures of the Old World, and certainly equaled or excelled any scenic wonders in Europe. Americans expanded the definition of the picturesque and applied it to their more rugged and unspoiled wilderness. The American wilderness came to be seen as part of the country's unique heritage and a national treasure, and became the subject matter for the paintings of the Hudson River School, the poetry of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, the prose of Ralph Waldo Emerson, and the philosophy of Henry David Thoreau. [2]
While the industrial revolution marred nature, it also ironically made nature more possible to enjoy. The invention of the steamboat and the railroad allowed people to experience natural wonders first-hand without forgoing many of the creature comforts of civilization. There they could experience spiritual renewal and regeneration from the more fast-paced and wearisome world of the city. While the wealthy had always been able to escape the city, their motivations had been chiefly to escape the heat, the smell, and the diseases that often plagued urban centers. Their country, mountain, or seashore retreats sought to duplicate the comforts of home, rather than lure them into the world of nature. But increasingly throughout the nineteenth century the wealthy were joined in these rural retreats by the expanding middle class who turned to the world of nature for health, recreation, and social activity.
This cultural context shaped the way late eighteenth and early nineteenth century white explorers and settlers perceived the St. Croix River Valley when they first ventured there. Its distinctive geographic formations, such as the "Old Man of the Dalles," provided explorers with navigation references, but also drew them into the unique splendors of the river valley. George Nelson, the Canadian fur trader who wintered in the valley in 1802-3, noted in his diary:
Nelson's paean to the Upper St. Croix Country was most likely added to his diary many years after his winter in the valley. It reflects the power of a picturesque landscape to overcome the realities of Nelson's last days on the river: cold, wet spring weather, rapids, portages, mosquitoes swarming, and king fear of a Dakota attack. Romanticism was necessary to transform a a truly wild landscape into a picturesque retreat and the mastery that came with technology and private property made possible the evolution of the Upper St. Croix from a battleground between the Chippewa and Dakota to the white man's "Indian Head" Country vacation destination.

"Essential" Makeup and "Organic" Hair, Backstage At Marni
Consuelo Castiglioni is known by the Marni faithful for a certain way with prints. And there was plenty of that in her Spring collection today, although patterns were well paced with plenty of solids as well. "I wouldn't call it minimal," the desiger's longtime face painter Tom Pecheux surmised of the wealth of white, black and color-blocking at play; "I'd call it essential"—which prompted him to take the makeup in a similar direction. "We decided [it] should be very pure," he said.
"Pure," in this case, did not mean bare as it has at so many other shows this season. Instead, Pecheux started each girl off with one of his signature massages—a deep-tissue rubdown with Estée Lauder Daywear Advanced Multi-Protection Anti-Oxidant Cream and its Idealist Even Skintone Illuminator—followed by a finger-blending of MAC Studio Sculpt Foundation, which provided a "healthy, glow-y" base. "We are using our fingers to melt everything" he elaborated of the "fresh" color that was applied to cheeks using a combination of MAC Cremeblush in Posey and its red-tinged Mineralize Rich Lipstick in Lushlife. A slightly darker incarnation of the transparent rouge hue appeared on eyes as well as Pecheux smudged MAC's Mineralize Rich Lipstick in Glamour Era, a plummy black, across lids, mixing it with its Cream Colour Base in Root, a dark brown, which he buffed into the lash line. Just the tips of lashes were treated with mascara to "tint" them before Pecheux set to creating filled-in, "creamy" brows and mouths that were stained with a layering effort of both aforementioned lipsticks.
Castiglioni gave Paul Hanlon carte blanche with the hair. "She wanted me to do my own thing," the styling star revealed—which usually means some incarnation of a deconstructed coif with a worn-in texture and a downtown feel. This time around, it was way simpler than that. "A lot of girls that work with Consuelo wear their hair like this," Hanlon said of the sweeping, "organic" ponytail-knot hybrids that were prepped with TIGI Bed Head Superstar Queen for A Day Thickening Spray and treated individually, rather than uniformly. To let girl's personality shine through, nary an extension could be found at Hanlon's station as he simply groomed Janice Alida's newly shorn fade and effortlessly brushed Athena Wilson's bowl cut to one side.

I fish for money...seriously at lower levels Oily Blackmouth, Firefin Snapper, and Sagemouth can net you some easy money on the AH. Stranglekelp usually is pretty good money too. And I love having a stock of Rumsey Rum around...never had a problem with drunkeness (so long as I only use 1 every 15m). It doesn't take too long to get a full stack of fish.
Just like in real life though, best time for fishing is early in the morning - when no one else is on. You'll be able to go right down the river or shoreline and hit every spot - without worrying about being ganked by a PVPer (for PVP servers) or places being over-fished.

TEAMS: New York Jets
According to a report from ESPN's Adam Schefter on Sunday morning, the New York Jets have granted permission to Darrelle Revis and the Tampa Bay Bucanneers to meet with one another and for the Bucs to administer a physical on Revis: Breakthrough: Jets have granted permission for CB Darrelle Revis to visit Tampa Bay and undergo a physical with the Buccanners, per sources. — Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) April 21, 2013 This would not be taking place if the Bucs and the Jets were not close to completing a trade, even though this past week the Jets claimed to hit the 'pause button' on any trade talks. Schefter pointed this fact out as well: Permission for Darrelle Revis to undergo Bucs physical never would have been granted if NYJ and TB couldn't work out trade. So there's that. — Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) April 21, 2013 If the Bucs are satisfied with the results of Revis' physical, specifically the progress with his surgically repaired knee from an ACL tear, look for a deal to be completed in the coming days with the NFL Draft upcoming. It is believed that the Bucs are willing to give up their 1st-round draft pick, along with [...]

As the nation's housing market struggles to find bottom amid a glut of foreclosed property, the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court has issued a ruling that will make it even harder for lenders in that state to sell properties for market value.
The state's highest court, in Bevilacqua v. Rodriguez, held that Francis Bevilacqua, who bought a foreclosed home from U.S. Bank in 2006, never actually obtained title to the property because the lender had filed for foreclosure a few weeks before it obtained an "assignment of mortgage" securing the loan. Sticking strictly to the form of the law, the court ruled that if U.S. Bank didn't own the mortgage when it filed for foreclosure, then it couldn't subsequently transfer title to Bevilacqua even though he paid for the property.
The outcome could be disastrous for Bevilacqua, since he split the property into three condominiums and sold two before finding out there was a potential cloud on the title. Now his only alternative is join with the condo owners to "re-foreclose" — go through the process again of foreclosing on the former owner — but his interest only extends to the value of the previous mortgage. Another buyer could conceivably offer more and force him to pay up to protect his investment.
Title companies, meanwhile, will be leery of insuring any transaction involving a foreclosed property in Massachusetts, making it harder for buyers to obtain mortgages and driving prices down further.
"It's very unfortunate," said Ward Graham, a lawyer for WFG National Title Insurance, who also filed a brief for the Massachusetts Association of Bank Counsel. "What we hoped is the court would have at least offered some meaningful method by which an innocent owner can clear title to a defectively foreclosed property."
The case has limited national implications because Massachusetts has an unusual, non-judicial mechanism for processing foreclosures, said Edward Rainen, a lawyer specializing in property law who also argued for the bank attorneys. In states where courts oversee all foreclosures, lenders usually must present all their various claims on the property at the same time in order to have the sale go through.
The Massachussets decision follows the court's earlier decision in Ibanez v. U.S. Bank, which stripped banks of the right to foreclose if they don't hold mortgages at the time they file. In the process of loan securitization the mortgage, or deed to property backing up a loan, is usually separated from the note, or obligation of the borrower to pay. The notes are bundled into mortgage-backed securities while the mortgages reside with servicers who are contractually obligated to foreclose when the noteholders aren't paid.
The Massachusetts Supreme Court has made it tougher for lenders to move ahead with foreclosures with these two decisions. Bank attorneys are awaiting a third one titled Eaton involving Fannie Mae which could resolve whether a lender needs to hold both the mortgage and the note at the time of foreclosure.
Massachusetts Attorney General Martha Coakley hailed the court's ruling in Bevilacqua, calling it "yet another clear demonstration that the only way we are going to restore a healthy economy is to address the foreclosure crisis and hold the banks accountable for their actions."
The court's approach puzzles lawyers like Graham and Rainen, however, because its main effect is to make it harder for banks to move foreclosed properties off their books and back into the market. While a small number of borrowers nationwide have been foreclosed upon in error, the vast majority of paperwork errors occur in cases where the borrower has defaulted and essentially abandoned any claim to the property.
"People are not coming in and saying `Wait a minute, I was wrongfully foreclosed because I'm not in default,'" said Graham.
In the Bevilacqua case, the borrower defaulted within a year of taking out the mortgage and can't be found. The court wouldn't hand down its Ibanez decision for another five years after Bevilacqua bought the house, so there was no way he could have known a future court would find fault with the way the title was transferred. The question of his ownership only emerged after the buyer of one of his condos hired a lawyer to look for potential problems after Ibanez.
The court did overrule a lower court's decision that Bevilacqua had no claim on the property. Under Massachusetts law, when he gave the bank money for the property, the bank in effect transferred the mortgage to him along with the title. So while the title may be invalid, he can get it back by foreclosing again on the absent former owner. But that is a highly uncertain process that exposes him to the risk of losing his investment to an outside bidder, Graham said, and the high court gave no assurance it will work.
To avoid these questions, Bevilacqua's lawyer tried to use an old Massachusetts process of obtaining title by forcing the former owner to come to court to defend his claim. The court said Bevilacqua couldn't do that because he didn't have standing.
"We were hoping the court would at least offer some guidance as to what an owner in this circumstance can do," Graham said.
The bigger question is why the state's high court has left so much uncertainty surrounding what should be a fairly simple process. When a borrower defaults there is not much question about who will eventually obtain title to the property. Courts around the country appear to be seizing upon technical problems related to how the paperwork of foreclosure is processed without acknowledging that these rarely, if ever, generate a legal dispute among the actual lenders.
"The practical reality is – I have not seen more than one court case where servicers fight over who has the right to foreclose," said Rainen. "The courts have taken an issue which we perceived as being between two lenders, and perceived it as a problem between borrower and lender."
One practical effect will be felt in Massachusetts immediately. Foreclosure buyers had better be ready to pay cash — and they will probably discount their offers further for the uncertainty there's a snafu somewhere hiding in the title.
"It is highly unlikely a title insurance company that is not already on the hook is going to issue a policy on that property," Graham said.

We made this recipe last evening for a special Valentine's Day dinner and it was OUTSTANDING! We followed the recipe to a tee with the exception of baking it longer because we did not want medium rare. It is easy and delicious and our rib roast turned out super moist and flavorful! Definitely better than you could get at most fancy restaurants. We will definitely be making this recipe again.

Bluffdale » The better the practice, the better people will respond when the Big One hits.
That's the approach brothers Jay and Kelly Bertoch have taken in developing more realistic settings for individuals training to be part of Community Emergency Response Teams (CERT) that will be called upon to help neighborhoods cope in a disaster, such as a major earthquake along the Wasatch Front.
Disaster preparation
Across Utah there are 90 Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) training programs, including 14 in Salt Lake County. Information for all 90 is available at http://1.usa.gov/iPET6R. Contacts in Salt Lake County are listed as:

"We really feel strongly that people should get training," said Jay Bertoch, co-founder of the training program known as Brothers Grimm, Masters of Disaster. "It's not if, but when, we have a disaster. Training is the key, good training."
Not like the training Bertoch received when he first got into emergency response work.
"They turned off the lights and tipped over a few chairs. That's not what it's going to be like in a real disaster," he said. "The first time you see someone in a very traumatized position, it's tough. I've seen things people shouldn't have to see, but you're going to see it in any kind of disaster. If you're trained to deal to help with that kind of situation, that would be a great thing to do."
To help make trainings more realistic and valuable, the Brothers Grimm have developed intricate disaster scenarios. They apply makeup to their "victims," painting gross wounds on their faces or torsos. They use tarps to form rooms where victims are located and continually add new visual effects to make the scene more chaotic.
"A couple of years ago we wanted to get better at it, so we got more electronics into it, better smokers," Jay Bertoch said.
"It's similar to what you'd seen in a haunted house," said Cheryl Ivie, Salt Lake County's director of volunteer services, who was part of a sizable county contingent that participated in a multijurisdictional training exercise earlier this fall in Lehi. "Ours was simulating an earthquake, but they also do fires. What they do is amazing."
Besides setting up challenging disaster scenes, the Brothers Grimm emphasize hands-on training to help their CERT pupils check pulses and airways for blockages.
"We set up triage areas and let people practice," said Jay Bertoch, who was CERT operations coordinator in Bluffdale and, like his brother, is certified as an instructor by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
"Practice is the best way to learn. The pros train all the time for the muscle memory — and to recognize hazards you don't want to get into," he added. "Rescuers often get themselves into positions where they shouldn't have been."
Up to now, Brothers Grimm productions have been free. The Bertochs feel it's their duty to help out as best they can. But they also hope that participants in their training exercises will be inspired to buy from them products that can be put to use in a disaster.
"Some day we would like to make some money out of this," said Jay Bertoch, who also is exploring the idea of continuing the work as a nonprofit.

Light Grey Art Lab's newest Gallery, Station Zero is this Friday. And I have artwork in it!!! Which is shown here.
I was really excited about this show. I had been doing a lot of my own (for fun) book cover redesign work lately. So when this gallery came about, I was really hoping to get in! It was a lot of fun to work on. It was a very interesting book to read. I'm really happy how it turned out. I am even more thrilled to be part of a gallery with so many fantastic artists and illustrators. I can't wait to see them in person this Friday.

"I'm an atheist," the late actress Katherine Hepburn once told an interviewer, "and that's it. I believe there's nothing we can know except that we should be kind to each other and do what we can for each other."
Plainly, atheists can be, and often are, good people. It's wonderful that Katherine Hepburn knew those things. I believe that she did know them; I hope that she acted accordingly. But how did she know them? It's one thing to believe in moral principles; it's quite another to be able to justify them, to give an account of their source. And this seems to me a particular problem for atheists.
"Morality," writes the evolutionary atheist philosopher Michael Ruse, "or more strictly our belief in morality, is merely an adaptation put in place to further our reproductive ends. Hence the basis of ethics does not lie in God's will — or in the metaphysical roots of evolution or any other part of the framework of the Universe. In an important sense, ethics as we understand it is an illusion fobbed off on us by our genes to get us to cooperate. It is without external grounding. Ethics is produced by evolution but is not justified by it."
Once I've recognized that morality is an illusion, though, why should I feel bound by it — especially when I can safely ignore it?
"We are survival machines," says the British biologist and vocal "New Atheist" Richard Dawkins, nothing more than "robot vehicles blindly programmed to preserve the selfish molecules known as genes."
"What natural selection favors," writes Dawkins, "is rules of thumb, which work in practice to promote the genes that built them. Rules of thumb, by their nature, sometimes misfire. In a bird's brain, the rule 'Look after small squawking things in your nest, and drop food into their red gapes,' typically has the effect of preserving the genes that built the rule, because the squawking, gaping objects in an adult bird's nest are normally its own offspring. The rule misfires if another baby bird somehow gets into the nest, a circumstance that is positively engineered by cuckoos. Could it be that our Good Samaritan urges are misfiring, analogous to the misfiring of a reed warbler's parental instincts when it works itself to the bone for a young cuckoo? An even closer analogy is the human urge to adopt a child."
But does adoption — or contributing to relief for unrelated poor people in distant countries, or risking one's life to save a stranger — really represent mere evolutionary error?
To his credit, Dawkins himself recoils from the idea. He calls such acts "precious mistakes." But why are they "precious"? What does that mean beyond the mere fact that he likes them, as he might like broccoli or the Beach Boys?
"The universe that we observe," he's also written, "has precisely the properties we should expect if there is, at bottom, no design, no purpose, no evil, no good, nothing but pitiless indifference."
On what objective grounds, if any, can someone holding this view say that failure to help a child or fight Third World hunger is "wrong"? On what basis, even, can such a person condemn murder, rape or child abuse? If somebody else endorses them, on what basis can a Dawkins disagree? The Nazis regarded killing Jews and Gypsies and enslaving Slavs as good things. Are these only matters of opinion?
Another way of looking at them involves what members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints call "the light of Christ," something given to every human. It provides both basic moral intuitions and, ultimately, the grounds for holding all of us morally accountable. As the apostle Paul wrote, "Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law which shew the work of the law written in their hearts" (Romans 2:14-15).
A simple argument can be formulated this way:
1. If there is no God, objective morality and moral obligations don't exist.
2. But objective morality and moral obligations do exist.
3. Therefore, God exists.
The logic of the argument is valid, and I suspect that most people intuitively believe both of the premises. If they are granted, the conclusion follows.

Exploring Grenada
The sublime scents of nutmeg, clove, ginger, cinnamon and cocoa waft through the air in Grenada, otherwise known as the "Spice Island". Set amidst the rugged interior and secluded coastline beaches are our luxury Grenada villas, colorful homes that will fill you with sunshine and peace of mind. If you're looking to avoid the resort scene, luxury Grenada villas are a good choice for a relaxing, low-key vacation.
Experience a villa in Grenada
Locals will inform you that the harborfront of St. George's is actually the deep crater of a long-dead volcano; true or not, its French- influenced charm abounds in its quayside cafes, winding streets and Creole houses.
For those with more of a wandering spirit, our Grenada rentals are a great jumping-off point for some island exploring. Visit Carib's Leap, where the last remaining Carib Indians threw themselves off the 100 foot cliff in 1651, rather than submit to French domination. If you prefer something a little more relaxing, leaving the luxury of our Grenada rentals is worth it for a boat ride over to Carriacou island, where you may just have the entire beach to yourself. Lay back, and let the warm, spicy breezes drift over you and work their Caribbean magic.

Mortgage brokers are private organizations which exist to complement potential home purchasers with banks. They vary from loan officials for the reason that the borrowed funds officer may even work for that retail banking side from the institution or bank. Lenders should be licensed with the states. Rules with this certification vary by condition.
Mortgage agents should also be licensed with the Countrywide Mortgage Certification System and Registry or NMLS. The reason for that NMLS would be to improve the entire process of mortgage lending and also to increase communication from condition to condition. Additionally they assistance to create consistency in rules and automate the certification process. Whilst not needed to become licensed with the NMLS, loan officials must register using the NMLS.

Banks sometimes delegate to companies to usher in qualified candidates and also to remove a few of the chance of fraud. Lenders generally is going to do their very own advertising for brand new clients and therefore are responsible should fraud engage in financing application.
A sizable segment from the mortgage and financial markets are commission based. What this means is, no financial loans, nothing. And therefore is becoming very competitive. Less than 4 decades ago, brokers did not get access to wholesale marketplaces. Today the access rivals the bankers as well as their lower overhead enables these to have a slimmer margin.
Lenders in Canada are controlled through the provincial government authorities and should have a provincial license. Around Australia, Brokers began to actually come in the 1980's but acquired recognition with the 1990's. Australian brokers really don't charge costs because they are compensated a commission for beginning the borrowed funds process along with more compact commission percentage compensated monthly moving forward. Australian brokers will also be controlled heavily through the Australian Investments and Opportunities Commission.

Support the IOM
On June 25, 2014, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel published a news article critical of the Institute of Medicine's 2011 report Relieving Pain in America. This report, mandated by Congress, was sponsored by the U. S. Department of Health and Human Services. Its task was to investigate the burden placed on patients, their families, and our health care system by chronic pain. The Institute of Medicine (IOM) stands behind the study and the committee that wrote it.
Our study estimated that as many as 100 million adult Americans suffer from pain and its consequences. Moreover, it provided a clear and much-needed message to health professionals and the public about the pervasiveness and costs of chronic pain, the very real benefits of better pain management, and the dangers of under-treatment as well as over-treatment. The study has contributed to better care and use of medications for many patients, especially in such groups as the terminally ill.
Relieving Pain in America also sounded an early warning concerning a darker side to pain treatment: the increasing misuse and abuse of powerful new opioids that has led to addiction in a growing number of people. Today, society grapples with this issue every day. But in 2011, our committee had already recognized these two faces of drug treatment and given our new problem a name: the "conundrum of opioids."

TEAMS: Arizona Cardinals
As the details start to get released from the Daryl Washington aggravated assault case, things are not looking good for the Cardinals pro bowl linebacker. As we reported, Washington was being investigated, and then subsequently was arrested by Phoenix police for assault after an ex girlfriend and mother of one of his children accused Washington of beating her up. CBS 5 in Phoenix is now reporting that the victim has a broken collarbone. According to reports, Washington went to his ex girlfriend's house to see their 5-month-old daughter. Court documents says they got into an altercation, and Washington allegedly her neck and choked her near her apartment. Police reports say they then got into a second fight in the parking lot, where Washington allegedly pushed her to the ground causing his ex to break her collarbone. CBS 5 tried to speak to the victim, but she stated she could not speak to the media. Phoenix police released a statement that this actually was not the first altercatio...

"Fringe" fans, things aren't looking good.
On Sunday, Fox entertainment president Kevin Reilly told members of the media at the Television Critics Association press tour that the network had still not made a decision about whether to cancel "Fringe," which returns with fresh episodes Friday. Though he noted that airing the show was a "point of pride" for Fox, Reilly reminded the assembled critics that the ratings for the show have been terrible and noted that the network loses "a lot of money on the show."
Those aren't things a network chief typically says before he renews a program (though, to be fair, he also said that decisions hadn't been made regarding two Fox dramas that are performing better in the ratings -- "House" and "Terra Nova").
At a Fox party on Sunday night, star Joshua Jackson appeared to have heard Reilly's warning loud and clear. "He's not running a charitable foundation," the actor told EW. Still, Jackson said he hoped the show's writers would get a chance to wrap things up in a satisfactory fashion, if the fourth season is the sci-fi show's last.
"[T]he important thing to me is that our writers are given a chance to finish the show, because it's a serialized show," Jackson said.
It's not is if all hope is lost for Peter Bishop (Jackson), Olivia Dunham (Anna Torv) and Walter Bishop (John Noble), the lead characters of the cult drama. Yes, things do look pretty bleak for "Fringe," that must be acknowledged, but Reilly held out hope that Warner Bros. TV, which makes the show, might make concessions that would make "Fringe" more financially attractive to Fox. It's a long shot, but things like that have happened before.
Let's not forget that when "Chuck's" future was in doubt, Warner Bros., which also makes that show, did some wheeling and dealing that made the spy comedy a more attractive proposition for NBC, which will close out the show's unlikely five-season run Jan. 27. Same thing goes for "Community": Fans are quite rightly up in arms about that show's forced hiatus, but TV analyst Josef Adalian of Vulture has made a compelling case for that show's future. Not only will "Community" return (as the head of NBC recently confirmed), a fourth season for that show isn't remotely out of the question, given that both Sony and NBC could well end the season with reasons to keep the Greendale students aroundAdalian wrote.
In any event, Reilly doesn't want "Fringe" fans to start besieging Fox with a "Save 'Fringe'" letter-writing campaign. (Even if fans wanted to start one, what would they send to Fox? Alternate universes? Cows? Strangely mutating viruses? Hmm. Definitely not that last one. "Fringe" fans need to sort that one out before they begin any show-saving projects.) And it sounds as though "Fringe" might live on in alternate media: Executive producer Jeff Pinkner recently told TVLine that even if "Fringe" went away, the producers would try to find ways to continue the show via webisodes or graphic novels. (Pinkner also noted that the fourth-season finale could function as a series final.)
Not a bad idea: Perhaps if the constrictions of network television -- which "Fringe" found increasingly creative ways to negotiate in its second and third seasons -- would free the show from its current problems, some of which are of its own making.
Sure, the move to Fridays didn't help "Fringe," but if I'm being perfectly honest, I would have been far, far more likely to campaign hard for another season of the show had it not taken a trip down the wrong rabbit-hole this season.
As I've said a few times on the weekly Talking TV podcast that I do each week with Ryan McGee (who's written about the current season's problems extensively), spending time with versions of the lead characters who never knew Peter Bishop hasn't been fruitful or emotionally engaging, and many of freak-of-the-week stories have felt flat or uninspired. It's hard to get worked up about the overall mythology when its either shoved into the background or evoked with an uncharacteristic lack of subtlety.
"Fringe" worked best when it took a hard turn toward serialization in Season 2, and over time, it worked out methods of telling ongoing stories in ways that weren't too convoluted. And no matter what happened or how fantastical things got, events usually had compelling consequences for the lead characters and their complex relationships. I just found a Peter-less "Fringe" less interesting and the show's relationships correspondingly less evocative this season. And though I think the world of the show's cast and their acting abilities, the return of Peter hasn't upped the stakes -- emotionally or dramatically -- in any of the ways I thought it would.
Don't get me wrong, if "Fringe" gets a fifth season, I'd certainly watch it, but I hope that long before then, the show gets back on track and back into the kind of thoughtful and complex territory it occupied before Peter disappeared in that infernal machine.
What about you? Do you desperately want "Fringe" to come back? Or do you think the show has run its natural course? I'm interested to get your take on the show and whether you're dying for a fifth year with the Fringe Division or kind of done with it. Do tell in comments.

Looking for something good --- and healthy -- to eat for your next trip to the ballpark? Never fear. The Gwinnett Braves have plenty of suggestions for how you can enjoy a fun night out at the ball game and not go overboard! We sent Good Day's resident food taster, Paul Milliken, to CoolRay Field to sample their pre and post-game meal ideas. And just like Mikey... he likes it!
CLICK ON THE VIDEO ABOVE TO WATCH PAUL'S FULL REPORTS FROM COOLRAY FIELD! Here are the meal ideas we got from the G-Braves:
Pre Game:An optimal pre game meal should be served 3-4 hours prior to competition. If game time is just 2 hours away, a mini-meal can be provided. The pre game meal should contain plenty of fluids, be higher in carbohydrate, contain lean sources of protein and also be low fat.Pre Game Spread:Watermelon/bowl of fresh fruitBowl of salted pretzelsyellow rice on the sidePanko Crusted Chicken4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, pounded or pressed to approximately ¼ - ½ inch thickness3 Tbsp lemon juice1 Tbsp olive oil½ cup whole wheat panko style bread crumbs1 tsp Italian spice mix or plain oreganograted fresh Parmesan cheeseDirections:Place chicken between wax paper and either press or pound until ¼ - ½ inch thick. Brush chicken with lemon juice. Mix bread crumbs, Italian seasoning (or plain oregano) and Parmesan cheese together and spread out on a plate. Place chicken on bread crumb mix to coat and flip over to coat completely. Add oil to nonstick skillet and turn burner on medium heat. Add chicken breasts and cook 3-5 minutes per side until cooked throughout and no longer pink inside. Post Game:Ideally players should consume fluids right away in addition to carbohydrate and protein to quickly re-hydrate, fill up glycogen stores (storage form of carbohydrate) and build/repair muscle. If an athlete waits an extended period of time (more than 30-45 minutes) they will not restore their fuel tank as well (glycogen in muscle). Muscle is like a sponge that soaks up carbohydrate after exercise. Wait and the muscle tissue's ability to soak up glycogen declines. In addition, timing is also important with protein. Protein is more effective at building and repairing muscle tissue when given immediately post exercise. This is an opportunity for us to give them nutrient-dense food and provide foods they may not cook at home. Bulgar Salad Ingredients:1 cup uncooked bulgar1 cup boiling water2-3 Tbsp light color balsamic vinegar3 cloves garlic, minced1 cup or more chopped cucumber1 cup chopped parsley½ cup chopped green onionpine nutsblack pepper to tasteDirections:Combine bulgar and boiling water, cover and let sit for one hour. Add the rest of the ingredients stirring after each one. Grilled SalmonIngredients:SalmonLemons, sliced thinly Salt to tasteDirections:Preheat oven to 350°F (or grill). Place aluminum foil on a baking sheet. Add salmon, top with thinly sliced lemons and cook for 15 minutes or until fish is flakey and cooked throughout. Mixed Green SaladMixed green salad mixChopped Brazil nutsFetaSliced red bell pepper
