					<description>Mark Blomsma's solution has some limitations. If the size of the collection is too big, an exception occurs in RPC. I would segment the collection in 2000 items chunks if the size exceeds that limit.</description>

					<description>I have used Countrywide and Pay Plan 52 will reduce the payoff of a 30 year mortgage to 23 years.   Instead of guessing how this works, create an Excel spreadsheet and amortize a mortgage payment over 30 years then create a second spreadsheet and amortize similar to Pay Plan 52.  Here is the explanation:

PayPlan/52 drafts one fourth of your payment amount each week. After one year of participating in this plan, you will have made an equivalent of 13 payments. The additional funds that you paid are directly applied to the principal balance of your loan. While other lenders may offer similar plans, they also charge significant up-front fees, which can add up to hundreds of dollars. With PayPlan/52, you pay nothing to enroll, and a nominal fee of $2.00 for each weekly transaction. This payment option is available for most fixed rate loan products. It is not available for Adjustable Rate Mortgages or Home Equity accounts. Select PayPlan/Services under Payment Services to learn how to enroll.</description>

					<description>The feedback center says this issue was resolved on 4/19/2007.  However, I just confirmed that this problem also exists in Visual Basic 2008 Express Beta 2.

George, do you understand why the feedback center lists this as resolved?

Thank you.</description>

					<description>PayPlan 52 is a plan that if you are on a fixed interest loan (ARMs cannot be on the plan).  It is true that the payments have to be made prior to the due date on the loan because of your written contract.  

A servicer cannot modify the due date of the Note as that is set at the beginning of the contract.  Should the loan be released to another company for servicing, the original terms of the contract would be honored by the new servicer.  Payments under the PayPlan are collected before the contractual due date so that a full payment (see section 3 of your Note) is posted on the due date.

Because of the timing of payments collected sometimes will result in 2 extra weekly payments being collected (1/2 of the monthly payment), this is applied directly to principal on the loan, thus reducing the amount going toward interest (if allowed by the Note).  This happens twice a year.

You can request an amoritization schedule to show you the comparison.

As to the fee for the service, check your Note for verbiage "Interest will be calculated on unpaid principal until the balance..." If this is present, you don't have to join the PayPlan programs to enjoy the effects of paying less in interest over the term of your loan.  These loans, if you pay anything toward principal, is recalculated the next month to have less interest calculated.  Given, your payment will remain the same, but the amount to go toward principal will be greater for the rest of the loan and you will shorten the life of the loan.

The time you would save off of the life of the loan for any principal reduction is taken off the end of the loan, where the payments toward interest is the least and principal the most.  If you pay $50,000.00 on a $100,000.00 outstanding balance, you won't cut your loan time in half.  You have to go to your amortization schedule (given in the closing documents) and subtract the amount going toward principal off the last payment from the $50,000.00 and work your way backward.

If you don't have the special clause, it is a fixed payment loan and the "fee" that other companies charge sometimes $300.00 to do for a "recast" is where they take the principal reduction and recalculate the remaining balance based on the original terms of the loan over the existing maturity date for the loan, thus lowering the amount toward interest and more toward principal.  You could save thousands in interest for a small fee up-front.

Back to PayPlan 52, the cost of drafting electronically on a weekly basis and the lack of a "recast" fee is greatly offset by the thousands of dollars in interest you could save in the long run.</description>

					<description>It's the best show &lt;i&gt;ever&lt;/i&gt;! I don't have the problem with 24 since I started watching it very, very late - I'm in the middle of &lt;a href="http://netflix.com/" rel="nofollow"&gt;netflix&lt;/a&gt;ing season 3.

I do have a dual-tuner Media Center, currently running Vista, which I'm upgrading to Windows XP 2005 Media Center Edition.</description>

					<description>I think you are getting carried away with the "best show..." but Heroes is getting good.  I can't wait until tonight to see what the setup is for the finally (which is next week).

Doesn't it suck that you have to TiVo either Heroes and watch 24 or vice versa? (or if you have the dual TiVo tuner than you are set)</description>

					<description>I have three mortgages with Countrywide.  I called to find out how I go about makin payments to the principal on each mortgage.  am told I will be charged a fee of $250 for each principal recalculation. Is this not a prepayment penalty? It is in effect penalizing me from paying down my principal and therefore benefiting Countrywide. According to the Mortage Note, there is no pre-payment penalty. Is this legal???</description>

					<description>This is a cool application, that I use to display Google news.  Google uses "&lt;b&gt;&#39&lt;/b&gt;" for "&lt;b&gt;'&lt;/b&gt;".  Is there a way to modify the tranformation to clean this up?  It's the only improvement I can think of.

keep up the great work!</description>

					<description>George, you have made a very good webpart and very useful...
But I have a little problem with it - it does not show accents ... I mean Spanish characters such a "ú" or "ó" etc...
It simply discards them.
Can you tell me anything about?</description>

					<description>I am one of the few ones who know how much you have wanted to go to a PDC. You have been so close, in two occasions! I hope and wish you could be  a choosen one, it will indeed do good to your current and future involvement with Microsoft technologies. You got my vote, if that makes any difference. Good luck!</description>

					<description>Thanks for your email reply, George. Having these articles open up in a new window would be ideal. This one is even better than the SmilingGoat reader because it doesn't force you to display the source heading link. As soon as you get a chance to implement this tiny enhancement, I'll have the perfect wss rss reader! Thanks again in advance.</description>

					<description>Thanks for the RSS WebPart.  I would really like to see the date the item was added to the RSS feed.  That must be there somewhere because other RSS clients display it.

I suspect that if I realy knew something about XLST, I could add it, but I don't.

Thanks</description>

					<description>George, your webpart generator seems to be great!,  but I get an error in my portal. It shows me the title and link but not the items.  The error says "Error al procesar los datos de esta solicitud." (In english:error procesing data query) I think it may be the language (spanish) or the proxy server, that require authentification. Can you tell me anything about?

A lot of thanks</description>

					<description>This is by far the most useful RSS tool I have seen to date. Any way it can be packaged up so that rss dwp creation can happen natively on a wss site? Even if not this is awesome! Thanks!!!!</description>

					<description>Halo 2 type of games are quite different from the one I am playing (ToonTown). On TT it is better if the people playing with you are your same level or higher. Of course, on TT you do not fight against your mates, but against the evil cogs. That's the main difference, among others.</description>

					<description>Now, the little surprise is really a BIG surprise! Wow! I am very happy for you both, George and Corrie! Enjoy every minute of it (including normal pregnancy sicknesses, Corrie), it is a once in a lifetime experience. And please, share more as time passes by.

From the bottom of our (Kim, David and Kent) hearts, CONGRATULATIONS!</description>

					<description>Both the IComparable.CompareTo and IComparer.Compare method return if x &gt; y, x = y, or x &lt; y. This function only checks value equality for collections. I\'ve posted a RelaxComparer class that Implements the IComparer interface in a more relaxed way than the default Comparer class, and have implemented a CollectionEquality method that tests collection equality based on the value and count of each item in the collection, regardless of position.</description>

					<description>yeah, I came across this very issue when I was helping someone write a data migrator that takes one table at a time from one database and moves it to another.  Kind of like SQL and Data Compare from red-gate but customized for some app.

If you ask me, that seems like a roundabout way to get something when they should have explicitly included a method to grab the schema without having to do a select statement first (even if the method just did this behind the scenes).  Oh well, maybe someday they'll get with the program and pay me truckloads of cash to design their stuff for them ;-)</description>

					<description>Good job! Although isn't it possible to do the same using IComparable? In fact in generics using the dictionary stack (I think) is able to the same thing. However, this is based on a Key value pair, this is a nice low level equality check. There might be other generic classes in .NET 2.0 that might address this short coming. Again good stuff!</description>

					<description>There is a benefit, for Countrywide, that is :-) They sound crooked to me. That is why you must always read the fine print. From being fine to getting screwed, just a small step away.</description>
