I’m surprised I didn’t come across his work earlier, night work in the city, great stuff! Plus he’s a fellow Sac State alum, Go Hornets! Check out his work, plus he puts in the effort to document his &lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/polvero/sets/72157615873440953/"&gt;setup of shots&lt;/a&gt;, really helpful info.&lt;/p&gt;

A home owner’s mortgage payment will not change becaue his house is worth less than it was when he first got the loan.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The mortgage payment will only change when the loan is reset, say for a 5/7 year ARM or in a refinance. Since interests rates are low both of those should not cause a higher mortgage payment.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A more realistic reason the housing market is having foreclosures is because people can’t afford to pay their loans. This is most likely due to unemployment, considering the nation has 8.5% rate, highest in many years.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This New York Times article only mentions unemployment once and that was in quoting someone else.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://blog.mkaz.com/post/98929046</link><guid>http://blog.mkaz.com/post/98929046</guid><pubDate>Wed, 22 Apr 2009 08:28:40 -0700</pubDate></item><item><title>Beer chess (via classics:watblog)</title><description>&lt;img src="http://13.media.tumblr.com/SXWafJGQpm39xwfaXLfC5sNfo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Beer chess (via &lt;a href="http://classics.tumblr.com/post/96775367"&gt;classics&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;a href="http://watblog.tumblr.com/post/94573435/wut"&gt;watblog&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://blog.mkaz.com/post/96834927</link><guid>http://blog.mkaz.com/post/96834927</guid><pubDate>Thu, 16 Apr 2009 07:45:48 -0700</pubDate></item><item><title>"In the mid-90’s, people would subscribe to just about any email newsletter because email was still a..."</title><description>“In the mid-90’s, people would subscribe to just about any email newsletter because email was still a novelty to them and they wanted to see something in their inboxes.”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; - &lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.quicksprout.com/2009/04/08/the-andrew-warner-story-how-a-21-year-old-created-a-385-million-dollar-business-by-returning-his-jcrew-clothes/"&gt;The Andrew Warner Story&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;</description><link>http://blog.mkaz.com/post/94264008</link><guid>http://blog.mkaz.com/post/94264008</guid><pubDate>Wed, 08 Apr 2009 13:08:09 -0700</pubDate></item><item><title>"There are 10^11 stars in the galaxy.

&lt;p&gt;The artist as solitary, tormented, possibly insane genius is among the most durable staples of the modern imagination.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It is also comforting. That’s not me, you can tell yourself. I may not be creative, but at least I’m not crazy.&lt;/p&gt;
