World Bank to Save the Tigers?
2008-06-11 06:55:00 Isn't this a bit outside of their mission?From Reuters UK:A World Bank report warned that "if current trends persist, tigers are likely to be the first species of large predator to vanish in historic times." "Just as with many other challenges of sustainability, such as climate change, pandemic disease, or poverty, the crisis facing tigers overwhelms local capabilities and it is one that transcends local borders," Zoellick said. "This is a problem that cannot be handled by individual nations alone, it requires an alliance of strong local commitment backed by deep international support," he added. Zoellick said the World Bank would convene a series of discussions with countries, conservationists and the private sector to mobilize funding for tiger conservation, and launch studies on how better to protect the cats.

Las Vegas Bank Foreclosures are A Smart Investment
2008-06-10 11:41:00 More and more people are choosing to invest in foreclosed properties like Las Vegas Bank Foreclosures. Knowing when to make your purchase can mean the difference between saving a little or a lot. It is helpful to know the different stages of foreclosure. The first stage is called pre-foreclosure. This is where the homeowner has already defaulted on the home loan, but the property has not been listed as a foreclosure as of yet. When looking to purchase these homes, such as Las Vegas foreclosure homes, you will be dealing directly with the homeowner. This type of foreclosed property can save you amounts up to about 40% off the homes market value.
