McCain Gets Around FEC $2300 Donation Limits - way around!
2008-06-20 20:26:00 To help ease their fund-raising woes, John McCain?s campaign has devised a new system to increase the maximum amount an individual can donate to the unofficial Republican nominee?s election efforts. The new structure allows up to $70,000 in individual contributions by channeling the money into different McCain-centric funds.From the Wall Street Journal almost two months ago:The idea is to tap donors for more than the $2,300 limit set by campaign finance laws. Under legislation pushed by McCain in his role as a senator from Arizona, an individual can donate a maximum of $2,300 to a presidential primary campaign and the same amount to the general election campaign... The new structure allows up to $70,000 in individual contributions by channeling the money into different McCain-centric funds. The first $2,300 of that would go to McCain?s primary campaign. The Republican National Committee would receive $28,500 of the donation. The remaining funds would be divided equally, up t...

Goals without Limits
2008-05-26 21:00:00 Lately I've been contemplating putting exact numbers on your goals.Part of me definitely sees the value of defining your goals and setting specific time frames and parameters in place. Otherwise you would be working towards a vague goal; you wouldn't even know when you reached it.At the same time, I also consider that while we stretch ourselves to reach those goals, we are also limiting ourselves in a sense. By telling yourself, and the world, that you are capable of only so much - you thereby limit yourself. While I don't have any analytical data on it, it seems very common that one peeks as they reach their goal. This means that while a goal might challenge you, it also puts a mental cap on what is possible.So I've been thinking about how best it is set your intentions towards a specific goal, while still being open to going beyond that. I suppose part of it is just how you frame the goal, and how you talk to yourself about it.I still haven't figured this out myself. If r...

How are the new loan limits impacting the Orange County housing market?
2008-05-22 04:59:00 Finally we are seeing a bit of relief from the affects of the financial market. The disparity between the old $417,000 conventional loan limit and the new $729,750 limit has dropped from three-quarters of a percent to one-eighth. That is a major shift in financing which should increase demand up to the $800,000 level. The disparity between the old conventional loan limit and the new super jumbo loan limit, loans above $729,750, has improved from 1.5% down to 1%. These disparities should continue to improve as the year progresses, and should reach much more comfortable levels by the end of the Summer. So, demand in the upper ranges should slowly improve as liquidity is slowly restored this year. Also, there was a six month lag between the slowdown of the lower and upper ranges in 2007. It stands to reason that a similar lag would apply in the improvement in demand. Demand in the lower ranges really did not surge until the end of February. That would place an increas...

Indonesia limits fuel purchases ahead of price rise
2008-05-18 12:27:00 Indonesia's oil and gas company Pertamina has set limits on subsidised fuel purchases ahead of the government's plans to hike fuel prices, reports said Saturday.In an announcement sent to petrol stations around the capital and several other cities, Pertamina has limited retail purchases of gasoline and diesel fuel to 75,000 rupiah ($8) for private cars.Subsidised gasoline costs 4,500 rupiah per litre and diesel 4,300 rupiah.Pertamina vice president Djaelani Sutomo told the Jakarta Post the move aimed to prevent hoarding ahead of the price hike."We are doing this to control consumption, which has jumped significantly since the government announced its plan to raise domestic fuel price," he said.Indonesia announced its intention to raise fuel prices last week, with the rising global cost of oil forcing the country to spend increasing amounts on its multi-billion-dollar subsidy scheme.Indonesia News Blog: http://indosnesos.blogspot.com-

Comcast said to be mulling monthly download limits
2008-05-08 13:28:00 Sympatico Tech News is reporting that Comcast, the U.S's largest ISP is thinking about capping usage for their users.The consumer broadband website DSLReports.com, citing an unnamed source at Comcast, said Tuesday the company was considering a cap of 250 gigabytes per month cap.The source said users would get one free "slip-up" in a 12-month period, after which they would pay a $15 charge for every 10 GB over the cap they used.The proposed plan would mark a departure for U.S. internet service providers, which have traditionally offered "unlimited" download plans to subscribers.But the proposed cap is still significantly more than most Canadian internet customers can currently access.Most Canadian ISPs, including the two biggest - Rogers Communications Inc. and Bell Canada Inc. - already have data caps for users much lower than the one Comcast is reportedly mulling.The most popular plans for both Bell and Rogers cap monthly data at 60 GB.

How do the increased conventional and FHA loan limits impact the Orange Cou
2008-05-07 03:42:00 Remember, the conventional loan limit and FHA loan limit were both just raised to $729,750. However, there are now three tiers of loan rates: the old conventional loan limit up to $417,000, $417,001 up to the new limit of $729,750 and then $729,751 on up. The original intent was to expand the lower interest rates of conventional loans to higher ranges in areas with much higher prices, like Orange County. Historically, major changes in federally backed loan programs were carefully put together for the better part of a year. This time, the financial industry was given about a month to create and implement a significant change. The credit markets are just now adapting to the new loans. Part of that adaptation is the three tier system. Until the entire secondary market becomes more comfortable with these changes, the discrepancy in interest rates between each tier will be sizeable. There is about a three-quarter point differentiation between each tier. As the market ad...

Tax Assessment limits
2008-04-11 01:26:00 Excerpt from Florida Association of Realtors News and Events "Long odds for tax-assessment limits sought by Rubio TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - April 10, 2008 - Property taxes may not have dropped like a rock, but a measure to set in stone a 1.35 percent yearly cap in the growth of all future property-tax bills got hearings in the House and Senate on Wednesday. The proposed constitutional amendment would limit the increase in tax assessments on all homeowners, commercial, rental and investment property, to 1.35 percent a year. It mirrors a citizen petition drive that has been a top priority of House Speaker Marco Rubio that would put the tax limitation before voters in 2010. Organizers say they have collected more than 200,000 of the 611,000 signatures needed to place it on the ballot, although only 75,000 have been verified by the Secretary of State's office."
