Fool.com: The 6% Solution [Motley Fool Take] April 15, 2004
Fool.com: The 6% Solution [Motley Fool Take] April 15, 2004: "Imagine that you and the seller agree on the price of the house at, say, $200,000. You then ask the seller for a 6% seller concession. What this means is that you add (up to) 6% to the price of the house. That's right, you're now going to pay $212,000 for that house -- but the seller is going to give you that $12,000 back when the sale takes place. You're going to use that money to cover all of your closing costs."
If we pretend for a moment that those costs add up to precisely $12,000, then what you've done is folded those closing costs into the mortgage. Points, title search, recordation fees, and all other closing costs -- most of which are not tax-deductible -- have effectively been included in your mortgage. Since your mortgage interest is tax-deductible, these costs have effectively become tax write-offs.
In addition, you don't have to come up with all that extra cash at settlement. Your down payment will be somewhat higher (if you're putting down 20%, then in the current example your down payment would be $42,400, versus $40,000) and, of course, your mortgage payments will be higher, but it ends up saving you money.
The seller has no reason to refuse this -- after all, the agreed-to price is still the same.
The catch with the 6% solution is that the house has to appraise for the higher value. If the appraiser comes back and tells you that this house won't appraise for more than $200,000, you can't do it.
Let's look into this a little further. Say you buy the house for $200,000. Your $40,000 down payment leaves you needing a $160,000 mortgage. You get a 30-year loan at 8%. Your monthly payments for principal and interest are $1,174.
Now, say you decide to use the 6% seller concession strategy. You buy this house for the price of $212,000. You put down 20%, and this leaves you needing a $169,600 mortgage. Your monthly payments will be $1,244, or $70 more per month. Is it worth it?
To begin with, many people aren't going to feel an enormous pinch paying the extra $70 per month -- not nearly as much as they would feel having to fork out an extra $12,000 all at once to cover closing costs. But, what about the fact that now you have to pay this extra money over the course of 30 years? Well, over the course of 30 years, you're paying $25,200 more for that extra $12,000 ($70 more per month x 12 months in a year x 30 years = $25,200).
However, remember that's $12,000 less out of your pocket at the time of closing. If you take $12,000 and invest it at 10% (less than the market average has returned over the past 35 years), then your money will grow to more than $200,000 (before taxes) at the end of 30 years. So, in this scenario, it can be well worth it.
Naturally, you'll want to run the numbers for your particular loan to see whether it would be worth it for you.

Fool.com: Is Whole Foods Overvalued? [Commentary] April 15, 2004
Fool.com: Is Whole Foods Overvalued? [Commentary] April 15, 2004: "One analysis of Whole Foods
Some quick analysis of Whole Foods' financial statements provides us with the pieces needed for the discounted cash flow analysis. The company's fundamental business model is pretty clear: It finances growth in stores from the cash flow that it generates. In the last five years, cumulative cash flow from operations has been $923 million. In the same time period, Whole Foods used $877 million to develop new stores, acquire other companies, and upgrade existing stores. The store count has increased from 87 in the beginning of 1999 to 146 today, and square footage has more than doubled from 2.1 million to 4.6 million.
Since 1999, the company has grown sales from $1.5 billion to $3.1 billion, a 16% annual growth rate. Indicating that it has ample cash to fuel the growth of its business, it just initiated a small dividend last year. At $0.60 per share for a total of just over $35 million per year, the dividend is not a significant factor in its valuation, but it does indicate that management feels the operating cash flow is more than enough to fund growth"

Ancient Gods - The Titans
Ancient Gods - The Titans: "The Titans, also known as the elder gods, ruled the earth before the Olympians overthrew them. The ruler of the Titans was Cronus who was de-throned by his son Zeus. Most of the Titans fought with Cronus against Zeus and were punished by being banished to Tartarus. During their rule the Titans were associated with the various planets. "

Google Technology: "Why Google's patented PigeonRank� works so well
PigeonRank's success relies primarily on the superior trainability of the domestic pigeon (Columba livia) and its unique capacity to recognize objects regardless of spatial orientation. The common gray pigeon can easily distinguish among items displaying only the minutest differences, an ability that enables it to select relevant web sites from among thousands of similar pages.
By collecting flocks of pigeons in dense clusters, Google is able to process search queries at speeds superior to traditional search engines, which typically rely on birds of prey, brooding hens or slow-moving waterfowl to do their relevance rankings.
When a search query is submitted to Google, it is routed to a data coop where monitors flash result pages at blazing speeds. When a relevant result is observed by one of the pigeons in the cluster, it strikes a rubber-coated steel bar with its beak, which assigns the page a PigeonRank value of one. For each peck, the PigeonRank increases. Those pages receiving the most pecks, are returned at the top of the user's results page with the other results displayed in pecking order.
Integrity
Google's pigeon-driven methods make tampering with our results extremely difficult. While some unscrupulous websites have tried to boost their ranking by including images on their pages of bread crumbs, bird seed and parrots posing seductively in resplendent plumage, Google's PigeonRank technology cannot be deceived by these techniques. A Google search is an easy, honest and objective way to find high-quality websites with information relevant to your search.

As a Google user, you're familiar with the speed and accuracy of a Google search. How exactly does Google manage to find the right results for every query as quickly as it does? The heart of Google's search technology is PigeonRank�, a system for ranking web pages developed by Google founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin at Stanford University.
Building upon the breakthrough work of B. F. Skinner, Page and Brin reasoned that low cost pigeon clusters (PCs) could be used to compute the relative value of web pages faster than human editors or machine-based algorithms.

Sharing Climate Data over the Internet
Try out these operational servers (or look at the complete list)
NVODS (National Virtual Oceanographic Data System)
PFEL (Pacific Fisheries Environmental Laboratory)
ESSC (Environmental Systems Science Centre)
AVISO (Archiving, Validation and Interpretation of Satellite Oceanographic data)
The Live Access Server (LAS) is a highly configurable Web server designed to provide flexible access to geo-referenced scientific data. It can present distributed data sets as a unified virtual data base through the use of DODS networking. Ferret is the default visualization application used by LAS, though other applications (Matlab, IDL, GrADS, ...) can also be used.
LAS enables the Web user to
visualize data with on-the-fly graphics
request custom subsets of variables in a choice of file formats
access background reference material about the data (metadata)
compare (difference) variables from distributed locations
LAS enables the data provider to
unify access to multiple types of data in a single interface
create thematic data servers from distributed data sources
offer derived products on the fly
remedy metadata inadequacies (poorly self-describing data)
offer unique products (e.g. visualization styles specialized for the data)
Here are a couple of reports about LAS topics

Ken Gillespie artwork from Hambleton Galleries, Kelowna
Ken Gillespie artwork from Hambleton Galleries, Kelowna: "Born in Vancouver in 1948, Ken Gillespie has always lived in western Canada. He has done some travelling to other countries now that his daughters have shown him how. He recently met them in Nepal where they trekked around the foothills of the highest mountains in the world. He also enjoys kayaking and hiking around the west coast of British Columbia. He started putting the images of the Canadian landscape to canvas at the age of forty, and a few years later left a successful career in the geophysical sector to pursue art full time. This change has met with much success, including sell out shows in recent years in Calgary. In 1996 he achieved senior status with the Federation of Canadian Artists. His work hangs in public, corporate and private collections world wide.
