ABC FDIC ... mortgage-backed securities, year 2000Anne Melfi
The FDIC is testing the market to see if selling two mortgage-backed securities as outright loans would yield a higher return. The loans are among the last remaining from the Resolution Trust Corporation, which was dismantled in 1996 after cleaning up the savings and loan crisis. If the direct loan sales are favorable, buyers could pursue acquiring 16 more loans. Selling loans directly could drive up the price compared to continuing to derive income from the securities.
This document discusses Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology. It provides details on RFID components including tags, readers, and antennas. It describes the three main types of RFID tags - passive, semi-passive, and active - and their characteristics. Current applications of RFID technology are outlined, including use in credit cards, transportation systems, access control, and more. An online survey was conducted on the benefits of RFID in different industries. Key findings indicate RFID provides benefits like enhanced customer satisfaction and reduced costs in manufacturing, retailing, transportation, and warehousing. In conclusion, RFID is seen as a positive technology but also has some limitations around cost and signal interference.
The document discusses the utility and benefits of using a neurosurgical microscope for various types of brain and spinal surgeries. It notes that a microscope allows for better visualization of tumors and vital structures, more precise resection, and thereby better postoperative outcomes and reduced morbidity. A variety of complex surgeries, including vascular, epilepsy, and skull base procedures can be performed using a microscope. The proposed Carl Zeiss Vario 700 microscope would enable a range of minimally invasive surgeries and improve results while reducing patient expenses and hospital stays.

Shepherd University Professional EventsKyle Franks
This document outlines a market research plan conducted at Shepherd University to gauge perspectives on the university's involvement in establishing professional events and programs to help students with career preparation and job placement. Surveys were administered to current students, faculty/staff, and alumni to understand their views. The results showed an overall lack of effective promotion of professional events currently offered on campus. Students indicated a desire for more types of career-focused events. While attendance may be more difficult for commuter students, perspectives from past and current students did not strongly correlate on this issue. The research aimed to show the need for career-focused events in students' areas of study and express student wants around Shepherd playing a larger role in their professional development and networking opportunities

ABC Don't Expect Pay Phones to Disappear--2001Anne Melfi
Analysts say payphones will not completely disappear despite their declining numbers and revenue challenges faced by payphone service providers. While only 2.2 million payphones remain in service, down from 2.6 million a few years ago, some analysts believe the decline could stabilize or even reverse as not all Americans own wireless phones and many homes and inner cities still lack traditional phone service. Payphone service providers are pulling some phones due to lower revenue from wireless substitution and free dial-around options, but some are staying in business while awaiting potential enforcement of laws requiring compensation for all phone calls, not just 911 calls.
