About « ReBurbia
by karlcow
a design competition dedicated to re-envisioning the suburbs.
With the current housing crisis, the sub-prime mortgage meltdown, and rising energy costs, the future of suburbia looks bleak. Suburban communities in central California, Arizona and Florida are desolate and decaying, with for sale and foreclosure signs dotting many lawns.
Fraser Speirs – On the Flickr support in iPhoto ‘09
by sbrothier
(via)
As you may know, Apple added Flickr uploading to iPhoto ‘09. As you may guess, I was a little perturbed at this since I pay my mortgage by selling, er, a Flickr upload plugin for iPhoto.
I acquired my copy of iLife ‘09 yesterday and decided to dive deep on how Apple have implemented Flickr integration in iPhoto ‘09. Here are the results of my investigation. Be aware as you read that this is the result of a morning’s click-around investigation and not months of serious use. I will do my best to give an honest assessment of what is in iPhoto ‘09, and you’ve already read my full disclosure in the previous paragraph.
Home Income Plan
by postasaurus
Mail online have reported that UK pensioners with an existing equity release scheme could save up to £300 million collectively by switching to an alternative plan at a lower interest rate. Equity release rates are fixed for life and have reduced over the past few years from around 8% to approximately 6%. The site claims that customers who have loans with the longest established lenders such as, Northern Rock and Mortgage Express could gain significantly by switching. It is estimated that approximately 10,000 pensioners could save up to £30,000 in interest payments over a 15 year period by switching their current equity release plan to one with a lower interest rate.

AlterNet: Obama Is Sub-Prime on Lending Crisis
by ravi
As the subprime mortgage debacle drives a recession that threatens financial markets around the world, the Democratic presidential candidates are pushing plans to address the crisis. John Edwards and Hillary Clinton are pledging substantial federal resources to stabilize the mortgage market and intervene on behalf of borrowers. Barack Obama's proposal is tepid by comparison, short on aggressive government involvement and infused with conservative rhetoric about fiscal responsibility. As he has done on domestic issues like healthcare, job creation and energy policy, Obama is staking out a position to the right of not only populist Edwards but Clinton as well.
