When you find the .DC files open them in a text editor. The version
number is the first line in the file.
If all you have is "#VERSION=650" (or no version line at all) you
won't be able to upgrade the databases, although the new v8.0 agents
should work just fine with 6.5 databases.

Federal Communications Commission has now admitted it has received the petitions
to deny the renewal of the broadcast licenses of WISN-AM and WTMJ-AM radio
stations – which would prevent them from broadcasting – after claiming they had
not been filed, according to the Media Action Center.
a national media watchdog, announced in November it had filed paperwork with the
FCC challenging the licenses of Clear
Channel's WISN-AM and Journal Communications' WTMJ-AM. It had hoped the FCC
would act by Dec. 1.
conducted a comprehensive study in May/June of 2012 – during the Scott Walker
recall campaign – which clearly showed the two stations each gave supporters of
Gov. Walker and the GOP about 80 minutes of free airtime daily on local talk
radio shows, while refusing any access to supporters of Mayor Tom Barrett and
Democrats whatsoever. In total, the two stations subsidized the Walker campaign with an
estimated $1 million dollars in airtime.
now reports that after first saying they were never received, Peter Doyle, FCC
Chief of the Audio Division, has confirmed MAC's Petitions to Deny the renewal
of the broadcast licenses of WISN-AM and WTMJ-AM radio stations have been
located and were filed on time, and the cases will proceed.
But in emails to a third
party, FCC Political Division Chief Mark Berlin claims the original formal
complaint upon which the license challenges are based
was never received, despite him personally sending MAC Director Sue
Wilson confirmation it had been received.

… the Amazon's Kindle chart (okay, a specialised one) with The Guitar Geek Dossier! To be precise, we're #1 in Pop Culture, as well as #21 in Art (and #89 in Music, but you can't have everything, nicht wahr?
Once again, megathankage to the nice peeps at AAAARGH! PRESS … on this day unlike all other days, it's lovely to be top of something …
We refer, of course, to Bowie Day. Got a phone call from the Beeb at 8:50am or thereabouts requesting pundittage on Where Are We Now — and I didn't even know there WAS such a thing until they told me. Spent much of the day being trucked from studio to studio in silver Mercs sharing my thoughts on the subject with the likes of Nik Gowing and Jon Sopel.
Said thoughts go something like this:
In sharp contrast with Mick Jagger (still jumping around like he was 20, wearing pink suits and silly hats), he's broken a decade of radio silence by confronting ageing and mortality, allowing himself to be seen in that extraordinary vid (which recalls nothing so much as the Johnny Cash vid of Hurt) with an old man's face, unsmoothed by either make-up or computer tricknology. The man who was always three jumps ahead now looks back at the time when he was young and crazy rather than pretending that he still is.
And he does it with a Big Bowie Ballad in his Grand Manner (classic Bowie chordage and all) which recalls his title songs for Absolute Beginners and The Buddha Of Suburbia. Song and vid alike are sobering and saddening, but oddly comforting at the same time. Yr humble servant is only a handful of years younger than DB — we first met in 1972, when he was 25 and I'd just turned 21 — and, like him, I find myself increasingly drawn back into reveries of my past. Remember: it's Where Are WE Now, not Where Am I … an exploration of the collective experience of an entire g-g-g-generation. The milestones never stop appearing at our collective roadside: f'rinstance, on December 22, 2012 (the day we realised that while the ancient Mayans may not have been fullasheet, their modern-day interpreters certainly were) Stan Lee — the Marvel Comics guy — reached the impressive age of 90, and Joe Strummer notched up ten years of gone.
A very different set of ch-ch-changes, but we still have to turn and face the strain.

September new home sales increased 5.7% to an annual rate of 389,000, the highest level since the home
buyer tax credit expired in early 2010. The three-month moving average of new home sales has increased
steadily for over a year as more housing markets begin to see rising home prices and improving consumer
sentiment. The months' supply of new homes for sale fell to a seven year low of 4.5 months as the pace of sales picked
up but the inventory advanced by only 2.000. The number of completed homes for sale ready for immediate
move-in remains at a record low of 38,000 as builders remain cautious about building ahead of the market
and as credit access remains tight. Median home price increased 11.7% from September 2011. The price increase is primarily a result of larger,
move-up homes being sold rather than an increase in home prices. Move-up buyers with equity and the ability
to pass rigid credit checks are a larger share of the market and tend to buy more expensive homes.
Some building material prices costs have increased in the past six months but home building remains
very competitive with the existing home market so the price increases are more likely a sign of different
homes sold than similar homes costing more. There was a strong regional variation in home sales with the largest region, the South, advancing 16.8%
while the second smallest, the Midwest, fell 37.3%. The Northeast and West advanced 16.7% and 3.9%
respectively. Monthly regional data do fluctuate significantly and quarterly averages may be a better gauge
of regional activity. On a quarterly basis, the Northeast was up 18.5%, the Midwest was down 8.2%
returning to levels last seen in early 2012, the South was up 4.9% and the West was up 4% from the
second quarter to the third quarter.
October 18, 2012 - Sparked by rising home prices across much of the nation, the housing recovery is now under way, but fiscal uncertainties and other challenges could result in a bumpy ride in the coming months, according to economists participating in yesterday's National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) webinar on the construction and economic outlook. "We're seeing a more robust housing sector than many other parts of the economy," said NAHB Chief Economist David Crowe. "One of the reasons is we have finally begun to see on a national scale that house prices are picking up again." Crowe cited a number of other factors that are carrying the housing momentum forward. These include: • Pent-up household formations • Rising consumer confidence • Increasing builder confidence in all three legs of the industry: remodeling, multifamily and single-family construction • Growing rental demand • More than 100 metros currently on the NAHB/First American Improving Markets Index However, Crowe offered several cautionary factors that continue to put a drag on housing activity at this time – including builders who are experiencing difficulties in obtaining production credit, qualified buyers who are unable to obtain mortgage loans, inaccurate appraisals, seriously delinquent mortgages that are at least 90 days late or in foreclosure, and a limited inventory of developed lots in certain markets. Other causes contributing to uncertainty in the marketplace include the looming "fiscal cliff" that will trigger mandatory budget cuts and tax increases at the beginning of next year, pending Dodd-Frank Act regulations that are making financial institutions hesitant to lend since they don't know how the new rules will affect them, tax reform, and the future role of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac in the nation's housing finance system. NAHB is forecasting a 21 percent increase in single-family starts this year to 528,000 units and a further 26 percent climb to 665,000 units in 2013. Multifamily housing starts are expected to rise 26 percent this year to 224,000 units and 6 percent in 2013 to 238,000 units. Optimistic Housing Outlook Expressing a more bullish outlook on housing and economic growth, Mark Zandi, chief economist for Moody's Analytics, forecast that GDP growth will range in the 2 percent range this year and next and "double that growth closer to 4 percent in 2014 and 2015." At the same time, he expects job growth to go from two million per year to closer to 3 million in 2014 and 2015. "A big part of this optimism is the housing market," said Zandi. "I expect 1.1 million total housing starts in 2013, 1.7 million to 1.8 million in 2014 and over 1.8 million in 2015." Zandi noted a range of assumptions behind this rosy forecast, including the expectation that mortgage rates would remain very low, the availability of housing credit will improve as private mortgage lending begins to pick up, and the job market gains traction as policymakers work to resolve fiscal issues, which will ease market uncertainties. Specifically, Zandi cited three critical fiscal policy concerns: • The fiscal cliff. If policymakers do nothing, the combination of pending tax increases and spending cuts set to take effect in January could produce a fiscal drag of four percentage points, Zandi said, which would throw the economy back into recession. "Hiring will remain weak until this is resolved," he said. • Treasury debt ceiling. By late February or early March, the Treasury is expected to hit its debt ceiling. A failure to raise the ceiling would prevent the U.S. government to borrow to meet its existing legal obligations, including the issuance of monthly Social Security checks. • Achieve fiscal sustainability. Zandi said that federal government expenditures as a percentage of GDP is 24 percent and revenues is 17 percent. He said this seven-point gap needs to be slashed to closer to two percentage points of GDP. "We need spending cuts and tax revenues to narrow future deficits," he said. "If we can't do that, bad things will happen." Acknowledging that these challenges won't be easy, Zandi said his forecast is based on the assumption that Democrats and Republicans will eventually strike a deal on these contentious issues because each side has much to lose. Democrats, he said, don't want to see tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans and Republicans don't like the defense cuts mandated by sequestration. If the nation has the "political will to address the fiscal issues in a reasonable way, I think we will be off and running," said Zandi.
A Gradual Climb to Normal Delving into the state statistics behind the national numbers, Robert Denk, NAHB's assistant vice president for forecasting and analysis, cited a range of differences among the states in the amount of pain suffered during the recession and the progress that is being made in recovering. The hardest hit states -- such as Arizona, Florida, California and Nevada -- bottomed out the furthest during the downturn and still have much ground to make up. Meanwhile, several energy producing states – North Dakota, Texas, Oklahoma, Montana and Wyoming – will be back to normal levels of housing production by the end of 2014. On a national basis, housing starts are projected to get back to 55 percent of normal production by the end of next year and 70 percent of normal by the end of 2014, Denk said.
October 17, 2012 - Nationwide production and permitting of new homes rose sharply in September to their highest levels in more than four years, according to newly released figures from HUD and the U.S. Census Bureau. A 15 percent gain brought the pace of new housing construction to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 872,000 units, while an 11.6 percent gain brought the pace of permit issuance to 894,000 units. These were the strongest numbers seen in both categories since July of 2008.
"Builders are responding to the rising demand for new homes as consumers begin to feel more confident about their local markets and put back into motion purchasing plans that were on hold during the recession," said Barry Rutenberg, chairman of the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) and a home builder from Gainesville, Fla. "Yet, while September's surge in activity is certainly encouraging, we need to remember that we still have a long way to go back to a fully functioning market -- and in order to get there, significant challenges must still be addressed in terms of credit availability and appraisal issues, as well as the increasing cost of building homes due to rising materials prices and a declining inventory of buildable lots."
"Today's strong report corresponds with the significant gains we've seen in builder confidence over the past year, and confirms our view that a housing recovery is solidly underway in a growing number of markets nationwide," added NAHB Chief Economist David Crowe. "That said, we are now almost at the half-way mark in terms of what would be considered a normal amount of new-home construction in a healthy economy, and we need to see consistent improvement like this over an extended period to get back to where the market should be in terms of generating jobs and economic growth."
The overall gain in new-home construction in September was reflected across both the single- and multifamily sectors, with the first posting an 11 percent gain to a rate of 603,000 units – the best pace since August of 2008 – and the second posting a 25.1 percent gain to 269,000 units – the best pace since September of 2008.
Combined single- and multifamily starts rose in all but one region of the country in September, with a 6.7 percent gain in the Midwest, a 19.9 percent gain in the South and a 20.1 percent gain in the West. Only the Northeast posted a decline, of 5.1 percent.
Issuance of new building permits, which can be an indicator of future building activity, also registered significant gains in both the single-family and multifamily sectors in September. Single-family permits rose 6.7 percent to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 545,000 units while multifamily permits rose 20.3 percent to 349,000 units. In both cases, these were the highest permit numbers since July 2008.
Regionally, permit issuance rose across the board in September, with the Northeast posting a 6.0 percent gain, the Midwest posting a 19.5 percent gain, the South posting a 10.5 percent gain and the West posting an 11.3 percent gain.
Builder confidence rising
October 16, 2012 - Builder confidence in the market for newly built, single-family homes edged slightly higher for a sixth consecutive month in
October, according to the National Association of Home Builders/Wells Fargo Housing Market Index (HMI), released today. The latest,
one-point gain brings the index to 41, its strongest level since June of 2006.
"Many builders are reporting increases in the number of serious buyers visiting their sales offices, and the overall confidence
measure is much higher than it was at this time last year," noted NAHB Chairman Barry Rutenberg, a home builder from
Gainesville, Fla. "The concern is that, even though demand for new homes is rising, overly tight credit conditions are still
constraining new building and new purchases at a time when that kind of economic activity and the job growth it generates
are greatly needed."
"The slight gain in builder confidence this month is an indication that, while still moving forward, the speed at which the
housing recovery is proceeding is being moderated by the various constraints such as tight credit, difficult appraisals
and more recently, the limited inventory of buildable lots in certain markets," explained NAHB Chief Economist David Crowe.
"These are the complicating factors that make it difficult for builder confidence to reach and surpass the 50-point mark,
at which an equal number of builders view sales conditions as good versus poor."
Derived from a monthly survey that NAHB has been conducting for the past 25 years, the NAHB/Wells Fargo Housing
Market Index gauges builder perceptions of current single-family home sales and sales expectations for the next six
months as "good," "fair" or "poor." The survey also asks builders to rate traffic of prospective buyers as "high to very high,"
"average" or "low to very low." Scores from each component are then used to calculate a seasonally adjusted index where
any number over 50 indicates that more builders view sales conditions as good than poor.
Following substantial increases in the previous month, the HMI components measuring current sales conditions and
sales prospects for the next six months each remained unchanged in October at 42 and 51, respectively. Meanwhile,
the component measuring traffic of prospective buyers increased 5 points to 35, its highest level since April of 2006.
Builder confidence continued to improve in three out of four regions in October. Looking at three-month moving averages,
the HMI gained two points in the Midwest and West to 42 and 44, respectively, and three points in the South, to 39.
A three-month moving average for the Northeast's HMI held unchanged at 29.

Stock home plans
by: Alice Wynn
What are some of the benefits of buying stock home plans? The primary benefit of buying stock home plans is that they offer an incredible value for a relatively low cost. Plans that have been previously designed can be offered online for a reduced fee because the initial cost was paid by someone else. The talents of the Architect/Designer are expressed in stock home plans on websites like DallasDesignGroup.com and the stock home plan buyer gets the benefit of their expertise. There is then a built-in confidence factor. the buyer of stock home plans knows that the plans have been checked and tested. Builders have come to trust stock plans offered by reputable companies. Most stock home plans are ready for permitting and conform to national uniform building code thus saving the builder and the buyer money. Buying from a recognized company means you will receive working drawings from experienced professionals who have been highly trained in the field of Architectural design.

2012 house plans
Aging in place is the new catchy phrase for 2012 house plans. While most of us want to think of ourselves as eternally young, the fact is that with each passing year, we do age, and our day-to-day activities change, and sometimes even the simplest tasks become harder to accomplish. Some homeowners may choose to downsize, and others may choose to live their golden or silver years in the home they have lived in for decades. Whatever your choice, now or in the future, there are 2012 house plans that provide design solutions to make your "Aging in Place" design easy, convenient and stylish. One of the most important factors in 2012 house plans is adequate lighting. This is of utmost importance and your plans should allow for as much light as possible. A dark room makes tasks like reading a book or reading prescription labels almost impossible. Accessibility throughout a home or condo home is crucial. Keeping a clean and clutter-free floor plan ensures mobility for anyone, including those in wheelchairs. An advisable dimension is 32 to 36 inches for doorways and halls with a 5-by-5 foot space for turning radius. People aging in place may mean designing their home on one level, with no steps or staircases, and even in certain cases designing ramps and elevators. Flooring called for in the 2012 house plans needs to be flat, non-slip, and as maintenance-free as possible for for seniors aging in place. The flooring should also be comfortable and easy to walk on. If carpet is chosen be sure it is installed with a firm pad and wall-to-wall, in order to avoid carpet edges that are a tripping hazard. Opening and closing doors can be done easily with a new lever-type fixtureand loop handles for cabinets are recommended, as they are easy to grab. At this stage in peoples lives, their home should be warm, comfortable and reflective of their many accumulated memories.

"Room Design"
Alice Wynn
Room Design in your home plan The key to having the number of rooms and the size of rooms in your new home is proper planning. Making an outline of the different rooms you want will help the Designer/Architect in your design planning process. Simply knowing how many bedrooms you need for example will help the Professional work with you to achieve your needs. The Designer will need to know the size of the rooms you need and if you have a preference for their location. Alternative sites may be recommended to allow for a better traffic flow throughout the home. Often the prospective homeowner will bring sketches and pictures of rooms they like to their designer to aid in the planning. Knowing the design style of the home plan you intend to build is very important. Whether your plan is for a luxury house plan or a farmhouse, you will probably want to find magazine pictures that fit with your goal. If you want a focal point in your main living area, such as a large stone fireplace, be sure to convey that to the Designer. Another focal point could be a large window overlooking the backyard or a pond or pool. It is also important to keep scale in mind when discussing your new home plan. Looking at magazine layouts may help you decide what size you want your living areas to be. Many homeowners own special pieces of furniture they want to keep and use in their new home. Be sure to specify these items to your Designer. Working together with your home planner is an exciting process and will enable you to be assured of getting the house plan you desire. Your home planner serves as your guide, leading the homeowner through the steps to accomplish their goal, and providing the room design you desire.
"Southern Home Plans"
by:Alice Wynn
CEO Dallas Design Group Architecture
What are some of the things to consider when discussing with your home designer the attributes of a Southern style luxury home plan? One item to mention is a circular foyer. Many Southern Colonial homes had them. That rotunda is often seen on an axis with the front door and may even feature a Palladian-style window. Most Southern homes exhibit a theme, a connection to nature, and to the earth and the surrounding environment. There is a closeness, a feeling for the land or acreage where many Southern homes are built. Southern luxury home plans are designed for comfort and for entertaining large groups of people; they have a feeling of warmth about them but also are very livable. At the same time they are elegant and eye-catching, exuding that feel of Southern charm. The challenge for the house plan Professsional who designs these homes is to incorporate all of the characteristics mentioned. In Georgian house plan design each room is considered unique and has a warm feeling to it. They are grand rooms but not pretentious. Southern home plans are known for large dining rooms and covered porches which also accommodate outside dining areas. Southern hospitality is what many people say Southerners do each and every day reaching out to to help others and treat them as they would their own family members. Southerners like entertaining whether it be small dinner parties or for fundraising groups or merely a neighborhood function and their house plans are designed with those events in mind. Oftentimes, Southerners enjoy sitting out on their large front porches, visiting with neighbors and enjoying their rocking chairs.

Designing a Home Gym
by Alice Wynn
A workout room in your home is a real GYM. A home gym should be located in a place you'll enjoy working out with good lighting and ventilation and a fan to keep air circulating. A mirrored wall will help you keep track of your form. Be sure to install equipment that will ensure a well-rounded fitness routine. The designer used to create this real Gym in your home design will need to know the detailed list of equipment to be installed in order to create a functional floor plan layout. Determining the size of the room, the square footage required for proper placement of the fitness machines etc., as well as incorporating the room in a convenient place for access is best left to a trained designer. Most basic setups start with a set of dumbbells and free weights. Dumbbells with stands will save space and will provide a built-in progression. Home gyms should be designed and incorporated in the overall design of the home. The home plan will reflect the needs, goals and habits of the clients. In new houses designing a home Gym, and incorporating it in the house plan, will help ensure a well-rounded fitness routine for the owners and add to the resale value of the home. As Americans have become more fitness conscious in recent years, many people are requesting to add a home gym to their new home design. Builders and developers are starting to pick up on this theme and add them in community centers as well. When you think of a home gym designer, think of Dallas Design Group Architecture.

Mediterranean Home Plans
by: Erich Wynn
What can you expect to find in a well designed set of Mediterranean home plans? The answer to this question is as diverse as the architect's and designers who design them, however there are some common elements. When you think of a mediterranean home plan, usually you are thinking of a stucco exterior and a tile roof. Often times these types of home designs incorporate special ceiling treatments such as groin vaults, barrel vaults, along with arches everywhere. Arches can be used as accent elements both indoors and out. Mediterranean home plans sometimes have arched balconies and patios, along with arched entryways and doorways. Another popular feature in many Mediterranean home plans is an entry courtyard or rear lanai. These features along with outdoor structures including swimming pools, pergolas, and arbors often compliment a Mediterranean home plan. Inside a Mediterranean home plan you may find Travertine floors, Terra Cotta tile, stone or stucco walls, tumbled marble in the kitchen along with many other custom design features. Mediterranean home plans often feature high ceilings and wide doorways. They are designed to emulate the classic styles of Europe, found in many towns in Italy, and other locations throughout Spain and Portugal and Greece. You also will see classic examples of Mediterranean home plans along the french riviera in France. These styles have become extremely popular in the United States over the last several decades and for good reason. This type of architectural style is outstanding and energy efficient as well. These styles have become popular in Florida, Texas, California, Arizona and New Mexico. To see a beautiful selection of mediterranen home please, please visit our website www.Dallasdesigngroup.com.

LP&L Strikes Deal with XCel Energy
By: Mitch Carr
Updated: November 5, 2009
Since 1942 Lubbock has been served by two power companies: Lubbock Power and Light and XCel Energy. Mayor Tom Martin announced this morning that that arrangement will soon be coming to an end.
The City of Lubbock and LP&L struck an $87 million deal today with XCel Energy.
The principal: LP&L will acquire all of the power distribution systems from XCel. That means that all of the power poles, transformers, and wires that crisscross the City of Lubbock will become the sole property of LP&L.
XCel energy has promised that none of their employees will lose their jobs as a result of this deal, and LP&L has promised that utility rates will not rise as a result of the deal.
The motivation behind the plan is all about downtown redevelopment.
The City of Lubbock plans to consolidate and streamline what it calls an inefficient two-company system. It will take the dual sets of wires and poles down, reinstall them underground, and expand the downtown area with plenty of open space overhead.
Former mayor Mark Macdougal heads up the revitalization campaign for the downtown area. He says this is step one towards a better downtown.
"This is going to give downtown Lubbock a chance to get redeveloped. With the grid system that you have in downtown Lubbock the number of streets and the number of alleys and the number of poles....it just doesn't work. The areas of redevelopment are too small," McDougal said.

In modern times this sort of ability to perceive reality in politics is lost due to most people buying into the deception propaganda around democracy.
Sure, we probably need more counterpropaganda, but the problems of democracy in advanced nations are hardly unknown... more generally, any society not under severe stress is going to be biased towards not changing systems already in place, because all change is risky: refusal to examine issues is just a consequence of this and of normal human cognitive biases. Sometimes this means that really stupid things persist, or that interest groups manage to extend stupid ideas into areas where they are really stupid (see software patents). In the end, either enough fuss will be kicked up that the thing will be fixed, or technological development will stagnate until it is. That's tough for those of us trying to do that development, but to be honest the average voter never even notices it. And society is, in the end, run in such a way as not to anger the average voter, no matter how much other groups may be profiting from it in the meantime.

Bandwidth Monitor NetWorx Updated With Quota Management, Speed Meter & Enhanced Reports
Nowadays, high speed internet with unlimited bandwidth is available almost everywhere. You can use as much internet as you like for browsing, online gaming, streaming videos, downloading etc., without worrying about a usage cap. However, if you're using an internet connection with limited bandwidth, then keeping a constant eye on usage becomes essential to avoid unnecessarily hefty bills at the end of the month. We have covered quite a few useful internet bandwidth usage monitoring apps, including NetSpeedMonitor, which monitors the current upload and download rates, and the total amount of total data transferred, by days and months. The dev team behind a similar app called NetWorx, reviewed way back in 2009, has added a lot of new features to their utility. Now, it offers a Speed Meter, an enhanced Usage Reports console, a Quota option to put a limit on internet usage and a Ping tool for checking active connections on the network.

24 November 2011 - AFGHAN TRANSITION ON TRACK BUT ENDURING EFFORT NEEDED BEYOND 2014, NATO PARLIAMENTARIANS HEAR AT LONDON SEMINAR
More than 100 Members of Parliament from 33 NATO and partner countries gathered in London, UK, on 21-22 November, to review the priorities of the NATO-led operation in Afghanistan and the challenges which lie ahead as Afghanistan prepares to take over full responsibility for its security by the end of 2014. |
Four months after the official start of the process of transition to Afghan lead responsibility for security, the 78th Rose-Roth Seminar entitled "2011-2014: Afghanistan Towards Transition", organised by the NATO Parliamentary Assembly (NATO PA) in cooperation with the British Parliament and with the support of the Swiss government, provided a timely opportunity to assess progress in some of the key aspects of the mission, including the building-up of the Afghan National Security Forces (ANSF), good governance and the rule of law, reconciliation and reintegration, reconstruction and economic development, and regional co-operation. Participants heard briefings by a broad range of high-level officials from NATO, NATO allied and partner governments, Afghanistan and Pakistan, as well as independent experts. Opening the seminar, UK Foreign Secretary William Hague told participants that "hard-won but fragile progress" has been achieved in Afghanistan in many areas. Transition to full Afghan ownership is the "right strategy", it provides a clear path, setting Afghanistan on "a journey of self-reliance" within a "credible" timeline, Mr Hague stressed, warning, however, that "enduring international commitment" and "strategic patience" will be essential, and that international forces will have to "face the insurgency every remaining day" of their combat mission. In his welcoming remarks, Dr Karl A. Lamers, President of the NATO Parliamentary Assembly, stressed the important role and responsibility of parliamentarians in this regard, particularly in explaining to their citizens the reasons and requirements of the Alliance's engagement in Afghanistan, and ensuring that transition is implemented in a coordinated and responsible manner. Ambassador Stephen Evans, NATO Assistant Secretary General for Operations, confirmed that "transition is on track, the direction is clear, but it will be challenging". According to current plans, areas across Afghanistan will be progressively transferred to the ANSF in five tranches. A first transfer representing some 20% of the Afghan population is currently being implemented, and announcement of the second tranche is imminent. This second phase is expected to bring a total of 50% of the population under ANSF control, including in a number of more difficult areas. It is hoped that Afghan authorities will be fully in charge of security across Afghanistan by 31 December 2014, at which point ISAF's combat role would end. While insurgents retain the ability to conduct attacks and grab headlines, NATO and Allied officials addressing the seminar were confident that the insurgents' change of tactics "from guerrilla warfare to hit and run terrorism" including the growing use of improvised explosive devices and suicide bomber attacks, reflects the increasing inability of insurgents to succeed on the battlefield. The ANSF also continue to grow and demonstrate an ever greater ability to provide security, but synchronising the growth of the ANSF with ISAF's "thinning out" will be essential. The seminar discussion's also made clear that, while significant progress has been achieved, serious difficulties remain, and "tying up the operational and strategic levels" is essential. Strengthening governance and the feeling of allegiance of the population to the Afghan institutions remains a key challenge. Afghans need to trust the capacity of their government to provide services, the rule of law, and economic opportunities. Recent polls show growing levels of confidence, but further progress is required in such areas as the fight against corruption, justice, local governance, and links between Kabul and the local level. A transition in the modus operandi of Provincial Reconstruction Teams (PRTs) should lead to a progressive hand-over of service delivery functions to Afghan authorities. This process is expected to help strengthen Afghan ownership and enhance the link between local population and their institutions. Speakers stressed, however, that it is important to put the Afghan situation into context in order to set realistic expectations and objectives. Afghanistan ranks 181 out of 182 in the United Nations' Human Development Index. The country will continue to struggle with widespread deep poverty. Assuming current growth rates are sustained, the wide gap between budget income and government spending will not be bridged before 2024 at best. Ongoing economic support will therefore be essential beyond 2014, including to help fund the ANSF. Efforts at achieving a political settlement with elements of the insurgency were unanimously seen as a key condition for future stability. However, limited progress has been achieved so far in contacts with the Taliban and their commitment to reconciliation remains highly uncertain, participants heard. Long-term stability will also require enhanced co-operation and support of the countries in the region, especially Pakistan. The safe havens which Afghan insurgents enjoy in neighbouring regions were mentioned as a key ongoing challenge. While Afghanistan's neighbours have repeatedly pledged to help stabilise the country, the seminar's discussions showed that relations remain difficult, with mistrust and suspicion running deep. Both Afghan and Pakistani officials emphasized, however, that unprecedented efforts are under way to seek to improve relations, remove the existing "trust deficit", and put an end to "the blame game". Participants heard that increased trade and economic opportunities could provide positive incentives towards regional cooperation, and the recent Istanbul Conference was seen as a positive first step towards the possible establishment of a regional framework. Discussions during the seminar made clear that continued efforts by the Alliance, its partners and the Afghans themselves are needed to make progress irreversible. Afghanistan remains vital to Euro-Atlantic security, and the gains achieved so far would be at risk if the international community and NATO member states were unwilling or unable to provide sufficient support until, and also beyond, the end of 2014. "The end of transition should not mean the end of cooperation", Dr Zia Nezam, Senior Advisor at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Afghanistan, emphasized. He noted in particular that the Afghan government is determined to conclude strategic partnerships with NATO and Allied nations, an objective that was endorsed by the traditional Loya Jirga convened the preceding week. "NATO will not abandon Afghanistan", Ambassador Stephen Evans, made clear, but its role will change. In the post-2014 phase, the Alliance will focus on training, mentoring and advising the ANSF, as well as providing support when required. The upcoming international conference on Afghanistan in Bonn in December and the NATO Summit in Chicago in 2012 were seen as important opportunities to confirm the international community's long-term commitment to Afghanistan. |

On February 15, Freddie Mac issued Bulletin 2013-3, which provides a series of updates and revisions to its loss mitigation policies. The Bulletin reminds servicers of their obligations with regard to various transfers of property even where the only remaining borrower is a trust, and provides additional details about these obligations. Following Fannie Mae's announcement last week, Freddie Mac similarly revised certain state foreclosure timelines and policies regarding compensatory fee calculations and reimbursement for property inspections. Effective for mortgages that become delinquent as of June 1, 2013, Freddie Mac will no longer provide a list of states in which servicers are required to preserve Freddie Mac's right to pursue a deficiency. Instead, in all instances where additional attorney fees/costs will not be incurred above the approved expense limits, servicers must preserve Freddie Mac's right to pursue a deficiency so that Freddie Mac may decide on a case-by-case basis whether to pursue the deficiency. The Bulletin also notifies servicers that Freddie Mac is eliminating a requirement announced in Bulletin 2012-17 that, for servicers participating in state modification programs, the modification include partial principal forbearance. Finally, the Bulletin also (i) revises Guide Form 710, Uniform Borrower Assistance Form, and medical hardship documentation requirement; (ii) revises requirements related to the verification of alimony, child support and separate maintenance income; (iii) expands the Freddie Mac Service Loans application process to enable servicers to obtain a property value and minimum net proceeds for borrowers being considered for a standard short sales and are less than 31 days delinquent; and (iv) updates the Guide to reflect that the Home Affordable Foreclosure Alternatives initiative is no longer an option in the loss mitigation evaluation hierarchy.

Adelaide Crows need a 'change of atittude', says coach Brenton Sanderson
- From: The Advertiser
- March 05, 2013
BRENTON Sanderson has accused the Crows of having an attitude problem.
And after a "confronting" review of Saturday's 63-point thrashing by Geelong, he has warned his players to lift their workrate in Friday night's home NAB Cup clash against in-form Carlton.
"We need to change our attitude. I need to see a different attitude," Sanderson said 16 days before Adelaide opens its premiership season campaign against Essendon.
"It's a lot about work rate.
"We're not working as hard off the ball as what we've become accustomed to.
We are not playing to the standard expected of this group and the players are aware of that
"That's something that can be addressed really quickly and we need to get back playing our way pretty quickly.
"You can't flick your switch with form but you can certainly flick your switch with attitude and we'll get a much better effort this week, I'm sure."
Sanderson - who was also critical of the Crows' forward structure and the big scores it has given up - said he was not yet panicking but noted the team must quickly return to its established playing style.
"We are not playing to the standard expected of this group and the players are aware of that," he said.
Asked why Adelaide had struggled through its pre-season games with a 2-2 record after going unbeaten through last year's NAB Cup campaign, Sanderson said: "It's a good question because we're not starting well.
"We've started poorly, which is purely an attitude issue which we've addressed with our senior players, and it's something we've got to get on top of pretty quickly.
"The opposition plays a part in that as well because, when they are up and about early in a match, it probably affects us if we're 2 or 3 per cent off the speed.
"I think at one stage last weekend we'd had two inside-50s and they (the Cats) had 20, we were kicking the ball at 30 per cent efficiency and they were kicking at 92.
"Sometimes it's just pressure around the footy. Our boys want to win and they are trying hard, but there are levels of trying hard, if that makes sense.
"So it's not do-or-die that we win this week, but we've got to get back to playing some good footy, to start to play our way - it's important."
Sanderson said the Crows would welcome back five first-choice players against Carlton.
Jared Petrenko (shoulder) and Sam Shaw (knee) will play their first games for the season after recovering from long-term injuries while Rory Sloane, AFL Rising Star winner Daniel Talia and Ian Callinan will return.
Twelve Crows left training early on Monday after being "violently ill" with a gastro bug, but Sanderson said all had recovered and were at training yesterday.

Garden meals are the name of the game around here during harvest season. As much as you'd like various items to ripen at different times the inevitable happens. It's like being a kid in the proverbial candy store…. what do we eat first, next and thereafter?
Last night's meal was roasted green beans and cherry tomato pasta. Yum! Ever since I talked to my friend, Pat from Michigan, and her love for roasted green beans, I've been experimenting. The first time I roasted some raw green beans, slivered onions and sliced yellow summer squash. I tossed this mixture with a splash of olive oil and salt and pepper to taste and roasted it for about 25-30 minutes at 425 degrees.
The next time we tried the beans on the grill but couldn't get them soft enough for our liking before they got too dark. It may have been that the temperature wasn't quite right. As much as crunchy green beans seem to be in favor at a lot of restaurants these days we like our beans slightly softer – they are more enjoyable to us that way.
So back to the drawing board – this time I blanched the whole beans for 4 minutes & let them drain. I tossed them with a splash of tamari, olive oil and toasted sesame oil mixed with a crushed clove of garlic. If I had to hazard a guess – the splash is about 2 teaspoons each – for about a pound of beans. Noel put them on a hot grill for 15-20 minutes, until they started to blacken & shrivel a little. They were declared the best green beans ever by our friend Dave!
Now for the cherry tomato pasta sauce, I read this recipe in a magazine several years ago. I have no idea who to credit this to but I've been making it every year since. Halve about 4 cups cherry tomatoes of various kinds – red, yellow, orange, purple – whatever you have. If using some of the larger ones such as Sweet Treats you may have to quarter them. Mince several cloves of garlic and sauté in 2-3 T. olive oil for about 1 minute on medium low. Don't let the garlic brown or the flavor of the garlic may add a bitterness to the sauce. Add the chopped tomatoes all at once being careful not to get splashed by the hot oil. Add about ½ tsp. salt & freshly ground pepper and let simmer for 10-15 minutes or to taste. Add a handful of chopped fresh basil for the last 5 minutes. Serve over your favorite pasta & top with freshly ground parmesan cheese.
Now I wonder what we're going to eat next????
