Economic Tsunami Predicted in Mc Henry County
2009-09-18 19:55:00 Its bad news for those predicting an end to the slump-down of the foreclosures that had taken the sheen off most major industries, including real estate. Mc Henry County is poised to take an economic beating according to experts like Paul Hespen who is a broker with Prudential First Realty.-according to him job losses are at the root of the problem, more than the Sub-prime Crisis that had really snowballed into an economic slowdown the world over. The problem of foreclosures reared its ugly head once again this year and it has already outdone itself than last year according to findings from the Mc Henry County Circuit Clerk. In April and May, the government took initiatives to manage the Foreclosure problem, but the government’s stance was short sighted as people who had taken housing loans with modified schemes are also facing the brunt of it. Official records put the foreclosure figure at 1600+ this year compared to about 1436 in 2008. As any economist would tell you that a rise...

4 years after the Tsunami
2008-12-27 16:02:00 I don't really know what to write, but want to write something. What happened on December 26th 2004 was something quite unimaginable, off the scale, almost impossible to believe (unless you were right there). I did not see the tsunami, my family was safe at home, all we saw were the after effects, and most of what we saw was on the TV... even though you might think we were right here in the middle of it all.The photo above shows Kamala temple, at Kamala Beach Phuket as the tsunami hit. Kamala was one of the worst hit areas of Phuket. We'd been there on the 25th with friends, having a drink at the beach, kids playing around. My wife was 9 months pregnant... our son was born 11th January. A lot of "what if's" were in my head for a long while after the tsunami. When I see this photo it reminds me that we are very lucky. 4 years later I don't dwell on the "what might have happened", but am very happy to have my family. As I write this, my boy (nearly 4 now) and my girl, now age 7, a...

Tsunami by Jude Nagurney Camwell [poem]
2008-12-08 17:09:00 I'm just beginning to enjoy the pleasure of sharing some of my writing with others at Scribd. This is a poem I'd written just after the great tsunami of late 2004. It's hard to believe that it's been almost four years since the Great Sumatra-Andaman earthquake and deadly tsunami. My prayers go out to all souls who were lost or who'd lost loved ones.

Se Aproxima Un Tsunami
2008-10-16 01:30:00 Por: Robín Rodriguez Ante el fracaso de Chávez y su gobierno corrupto, la creciente desilusión y la crisis que se avecina. Podemos afirmar que marchamos hacia una situación similar a la que antecedió a los levantamientos cívicos-militares del 4 de febrero y 27 de noviembre del 1992, donde juntos a figuras como Arturo Uslar Pietri, Reinaldo Cervini, Francisco Miere, Douglas Bravo y Rafael Venegas, cerramos filas en la búsqueda de un cambio de rumbo al gobierno corrupto de Carlos Andrés Pérez. Por esta razón, debemos prepáranos para afrontar el tsunami político-social que se aproxima. La podredumbre ha tocado todos los cimientos de la sociedad; por un lado tenemos el gobierno mas corrupto y vende patria hablando de revolución y nacionalismo; mientras que del otro, tenemos lo que se conoce como la oposición, que utiliza la necesidad de frenar la arremetida autoritaria del régimen de Chávez, para legitimar el vulgar reparto que hicieron las cúpulas de 5 partidos y algunas fracc...

Qatar and Katrina: A lesson for America?
2008-05-06 23:00:00 After the Katrina disaster, America's slow response was likened to that of a third world country. However, aid did come from unexpected parts of the world - from Qatar, formerly itself a dirt poor country, but now, on a GDP per person basis at least, far richer than America.Qatar set up the Qatar Katrina fund, which, in partnership with local organisations, has been working in the fields of health care, education and housing. One American blogger wrote:"The Children?s Hospital here, Habitat for Humanity, Tulane, Loyola and Louisiana State Universities, students seeking scholarships, the area?s homeless ? all have benefited from the oil-and-gas-borne largess of Qatar, one of the most open-handed of the donors to come to the Gulf Coast?s aid after the disastrous 2005 storm. Two other Persian Gulf nations, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, have also given."(Critical Dune)Some American bloggers, some of whom want to bomb America's only real ally in the Gulf, have argued this ...

A Word About Mortgage Resets: Tsunami
2008-04-27 00:53:00 The image above shows what Jim would call "max-pain" in the on going storm of mortgage resets. We are now in the midst of a mind numbing peak in resets of subprime mortgages. Gee, could this be why retail sales and consumer confidence have fallen off cliff? And while we're at this grim peak, remember that reset doesn't equate with instant default. Default takes 90 days to happen and then once foreclosure proceedings are started, depending on the state, it can take up to a year before the foreclosure actually happens. So even with a peak in resets now, banks and the courts will be busy for the next year dealing with whatever carnage results from this reset tsunami.Oh, and before you breathe a sigh of relief that we're at a peak in resets of "subprime" mortgages, notice that another tsunami of option arm adjustables and Alt-A resets will get underway in 2009 and not peak until 2011. Going from interest only to a principle and interest payment will be a killer.-MMK for the B...

Home-sales tsunami reaches O.C. beach towns
2008-04-17 09:01:00 Analysis of DataQuick’s March homebuying report shows the county’s beach-close communities are no longer immune from the current housing slump. DataQuick identified 295 homes selling in beach cities’ ZIP codes last month, a 46% drop from a year ago. In these 17 ZIPs, last month’s median price change was off 11.9% vs. a year ago. It’s a sea change, so to speak, as last year beach towns enjoyed some breaks from housing’s rough seas. For all of 2007, there was an 18% drop in sales in beach cities’ ZIP codes vs. 30%-plus declines in the rest of the county. So, compare March at the beach to conditions in other O.C. regions … • Surprisingly, mid-county ZIPs had a smaller percentage-point sales drop than seaside towns: the 386 sales marked a drop of 41% from a year ago. In these 24 ZIPs, last month’s median price change was down 27.2% vs. a year ago. Could price cuts be key? • South inland ZIPs had 447 sales, a drop of 54% from a ye...

A California Tsunami
2008-02-06 22:17:00 It's looking like John McCain's 8-point victory over Mitt Romney in California will translate into winning at least 90% of the 170 delegates which were at stake last night and may reach 95%. Romney has apparently won three of the state's 53 congressional districts where 100% of precincts have reported (the 21st, 49th, and 52nd) and imo has a chance of catching McCain in only three districts where reporting is incomplete (the 25th, 41st, and 42nd), meaning Romney will receive between 9 and 18 delegates from California. McCain's next challenge will be this weekend's annual CPAC conference. Unlike last year, when he avoided it altogether, McCain plans to speak to CPAC's members this year, no doubt to stress areas where he and they share values rather than reiterate the differences. The reactions of CPAC's attendees to McCain this weekend should give us a strong hint of whether they will be willing to put aside their grievances against McCain and support him this fall as the ...
