Vote For It! '08 | www.voteforit08.org | Hip-Hop Summit Action Network
2008-07-16 15:37:00 I found this great video and simply am posting it to help get out the message before the DNC Convention. It features LL Cool J -- who's made a huge comback (don't call it that) and Russell Simmons, among others. The description reads:VFI08 is a joint initiative between the Hip-Hop Summit Action Network (HSAN), and online ad network and marketing company, CPX Interactive. The overarching purpose of the joint initiative is to serve as a call-to-action to America's youth vote, emphasizing the importance of connectivity to the growing national political spirit and the necessity of empowering one's self thru the exercise of the most basic responsibility...that is the right to vote.Here's the video:
World Hunger Summit Leaders Dine on Cockroach Ragout and Yakitori of Rat, w
2008-07-09 17:53:00 File this under major irony of 2008, but this past Sunday, the world leaders who represent all the countries concerned with the global food crisis, "sat down to an 18-course gastronomic extravaganza at a G8 summit in Japan, which is focusing on the food crisis."Did any of the diners ponder their own hypocrisy for a nanosecond as their ivory chopsticks ascended to their well-fed jowls? Jowls quivering with such delicacies as milk-fed lamb, sea urchin gonads (known as "uni" in Japan), as well as the usual sturgeon roe and sparkling wine from the Champagne region of France (ho hum)?One wonders what an appropriate dinner menu for such an illustrious gathering might be. Anyone care to add to this list? The rules are that it must be:AbundantInexpensiveEasily attainedNot harmful to the environment to raise/growHere's my suggested menu:Mosquito fritter appetizerGarden snail popcornJellyfish sashimi on kudzu leavesPinto beans puree with a soybean reduction sauceCockroach ragoutYakitor...

Will Summit County Colorado homes depreciate this year?
2008-06-07 06:23:00 How does the national economy affect our Summit County real estate market? Today I attended a session with the chief economist for the National Association of Realtors, Dr Lawrence Yun. I found it very interesting to hear his take on the economy and how it translates to homes in Summit County, Colorado. What I took away from his presentation was that real estate is local, and what has affected home sales so negatively is the sub prime mortage mess. Areas that had high incidences of sub prime mortgages (more than 100% financing, stated income, adjustable rate mortgages, and other similar programs) are now the areas with a lot of foreclosures. Where foreclosures are not as common, the markets are still stable or appreciating. The worst areas are Miami, Phoenix and Las Vegas, where a combination of subprime loans and speculation caused rapid appreciation, and just as rapid depreciation. However, Dr Yun seems to think that the prices still could increase 10-50%, even there, ove...
