Fed Takes Foreclosure Ads to the Movies

Fed Takes Foreclosure Ads to the Movies
Wall Street Journal

The Federal Reserve is coming soon to a theater near you. The subject won't be the drama inside the central bank or its role in the current financial crisis. Rather, Fed officials plan to launch advertisements in movie theaters to warn homeowners about foreclosure scams. Intended to extend the reach of consumer warnings on the Fed's Web site, the ads will run in 14 cities with high-foreclosure housing markets and an outbreak of scam artists charging for guidance that is free from nonprofits working with the government.


Applications for US Home Loans Surge
Financial Times

Applications for US mortgages surged last week as banks lowered borrowing costs after the Federal Reserve's decision to buy Treasuries pushed interest rates to record lows. The Mortgage Bankers' Association's index of applications to buy a home or refinance a loan soared 32 per cent for the week ended March 20, as the interest rate on a 30-year fixed rate mortgage plunged to a record low of 4.63 per cent. The low rates prompted homeowners to refinance their mortgages to trim their monthly payments.

Please think outside that box. He can not.  He will not.  He is part of a elcolctive.  He is like a Branch Davidian.  Or better yet, a kibbutz of the stupid and ignorant.Lt. Commander Geordi La Forge: If this works the way I think it will, once the invasive program starts spreading, it'll only be a matter of months before the Borg suffer total systems failure.Captain Jean-Luc Picard: Comments?Doctor Beverly Crusher: Question. What exactly is  total systems failure ?Lt. Commander Data: The Borg are extremely computer-dependent. A systems failure will destroy them.Doctor Beverly Crusher: I just think we should be clear about that. We're talking about annihilating an entire race.Captain Jean-Luc Picard: Which under most circumstances would be unconscionable. But as I see it, the Borg leave us with little choice.Commander William T. Riker: I agree. We're at war.Doctor Beverly Crusher: There's been no formal declaration of war.Counselor Deanna Troi: Not from us, but certainly from them. They've attacked us at every encounter.Captain Jean-Luc Picard: They've declared war on our way of life. We are to be assimilated.Doctor Beverly Crusher: But even in war there are rules. You don't kill civilians indiscriminately.Commander William T. Riker: There are no civilians among the Borg.Captain Jean-Luc Picard: Think of them as a single elcolctive being. There's no one Borg who is more an individual than your arm or your leg.Doctor Beverly Crusher: How convenient.Captain Jean-Luc Picard: Your point, Doctor?Doctor Beverly Crusher: When I look at my patient, I don't see a elcolctive consciousness, I don't see a hive. I see a living, breathing boy who has been hurt and who needs our help. And we're talking about sending him back to his people as an instrument of destruction.Captain Jean-Luc Picard: It comes down to this: we're faced with an enemy who are determined to destroy us, and we have no hope of negotiating a peace. Unless that changes, we are justified in doing anything we can to survive.
