HUD tells Grant Applicants: Don’t discriminate based on legal ‘SOURCES OF INCOME’ or risk funding
New requirement part of broader civil rights protections
Washington, DC – The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development will begin requiring applicants seeking grant funding to comply with state and local laws that protect individuals from being denied housing based on their lawful source of income. This funding requirement is part of a broader effort by HUD to make certain grant applicants meet state and local anti-discrimination laws, including those prohibiting housing discrimination based on a person’s income, such as Section 8 Rental Assistance, Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), Supplemental Security Income (SSI), Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or earnings from seasonal employment.
This week, HUD published a general funding notice detailing the minimum requirements that will apply to all of the Department’s competitively awarded grant programs for Fiscal Year 2010. For the first time, HUD will now require applicants to comply with state and local anti-discrimination laws that prohibit housing discrimination against persons based on their ‘lawful source of income.’ «Read the rest of this article»
The Weekly Market Snapshot from Frazier Allen
Market Commentary by Scott J. Brown, Ph.D., Chief Economist for Raymond James Investment Services
Scott J. Brown Ph.D., Chief Economist Raymond James Investment Services
The economic data were generally soft, consistent with a lackluster-to-moderate pace of economic growth. The Federal Reserve’s Beige Book noted that “economic activity continued to improve since the last report,” although most Fed districts described the pace of growth as “modest.” Retail sales were much weaker than anticipated, falling by 1.2% in May, down 1.1% excluding autos. Weakness was concentrated in building materials, which could reflect the acceleration in March and April (due to the pending expiration of the homebuyer tax credit). Ex-autos, building materials and gasoline, sales edged up 0.1% following a 0.2% decline in April.
The stock market mood remained negative, with plenty of intraday volatility. However, Chinese export data suggested that the European debt crisis has not had a major impact on foreign trade. Global equity markets improved on that news and short-covering may have exaggerated the impact in the United States. The disappointing retail sales figures dampened the mood again on Friday. «Read the rest of this article»
Football Govs to open 2011 at BIG EAST power Cincinnati
APSU vs Cincinnati (Austin Peay Sports Information)
The Southeastern Conference, the Big Ten, Conference USA and the Mid-America Conference…Now add the BIG EAST to conference opponents Austin Peay State University will be playing in future football seasons.
In fact, Austin Peay not only will open the 2011 football season at Cincinnati (first week of September, exact date and time still to be determined), but they as well will be playing a Bearcats team that won the BIG EAST Conference in 2009 and played in the Sugar Bowl.
“It’s kind of like what Southern Miss said a few years ago, ‘go anywhere and play anybody,” APSU coach Rick Christophel said. “It is exciting to get Cincinnati on our schedule, especially considering they have been in the BCS (Bowl Championship Series) the last few years. It’s another place I have been fortunate enough coach (1983) at and they really have done a great job of improving the facilities along with the talent level to be in the BIG EAST Conference. «Read the rest of this article»
VanDam Keeps Things Interesting; Holds Lead at Kentucky Lake Bassmaster Elite Series Event
Paris, TN – Just when it seemed Kevin VanDam had a virtual stranglehold on the Tennessee Triumph, the five-time Toyota Tundra Bassmaster Angler of the Year uncharacteristically loosened his grip heading into the final day of competition. Despite weighing 21 pounds, 11 ounces, Friday, the Kalamazoo, MI, veteran lost nearly half of his 6-pound advantage as Kelly Jordon smashed 24 pounds, 0 ounces, to close the gap.
Kentucky Lake guru VanDam – he has posted a second-, third and first-place finish in the past three BASS events here – amassed a three-day total of 70-13 (Jordon has 67-2) but has seen his weight decline each of three competition days. Much of that can be attributed to the tremendous boat pressure VanDam is coping with and the bad news for KVD is that the impending weekend should only bring increased traffic.

Five Authors Whose Books You Don’t Want to Miss
Summer typically provides at least a few more hours for reading, whether it’s during vacation or just because you have more daylight hours for relaxing. Here are some authors I consider worth reading:
1. Karen von Blixen-Finecke (Isak Dinesen). “I had a farm in Africa” in the romantic OUT OF AFRICA (first published in 1937) is one of the most memorable first lines in any book I’ve ever read. These six simple words somehow create an atmosphere of intrigue that extends throughout the book. If you have seen the movie and enjoyed it, you will love the book. «Read the rest of this article»
