		<description>&lt;p&gt;I’m anxious to see Ian’s reaction to the proposal to form another entity to take and then ultimately dispose of their bad debt without absorbing the entire financial institution.  The way I envision this is that they have the entities unbundle the loans that they bought, determine which are the problem loans, bundle them up and off to the government’s newly formed entity, leaving the seller with all their remaining performing assets.  Would this concept be wrong?&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;thanks!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;fyi - grew up in Land Park. family still there.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I knew housing had something to do with it - isn’t Natomas a giant financial sink hole about now ?  lots of misery to go around.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;your response makes sense although I am still troubled by seeing it above the natl avg - never seen that in numerous downturns&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;thanks again.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;“&lt;strong&gt;Premier Election Solutions&lt;/strong&gt;, the company that makes many of the nation’s voting machines, last month acknowledged that software used in 34 states, including Virginia and Maryland, could cause votes to be dropped. The company&lt;strong&gt;, formerly called Diebold&lt;/strong&gt;, said it has no fix for the problem now, but election officials can catch the errors and recover the votes through a routine process of double-checking electronic memory cards.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Any weak spots in the process in November, whether poorly trained poll workers, a confusing ballot design or faulty equipment, will be further stressed by turnout, including many first-time voters.”&lt;/p&gt;
