Sharing the message

That's why Witzke ishappy to talk about,firesafety nd preventionwhenever he can, whichincludes monthly meetingsof the Maine TownshipNeighborhood Watch.Witzke often begins his di-alogue with the residentsby asking them what kindof fire safety message hasbeen posted on the NorthMaine Fire Station's publicmessage board.

The first thing NuesWest High School pl'inci-pal I(aine Osburn toldNiles Township I-11gbSchool District219 boardmembei' eai'Iier thismonth, bel'oi'e outliningthe school's new No ChildLeft Behind-mandated re-structuring plan, was thatit; wasn't actually new.

more available to sup-port classroom teachers;training teachers to teachreading skills in all sub-jects; and strengtheningstudents' reading skills.And teachers and admin-isti'atot's at Nues Westwere already using mostof them, Osbui'n said atthe board's April 8 meet-ing.

"There's nothing inhere that's earth-shakingor new. These ideas aren'tout of left field," Osburnsaid, before the schoolboai'd unanimously ap-proved the strategies.

In fact, the biggestchallenge plan architectshad was not to react with

panic to restructuring or-ders, he said.

"One thing No ChildLeft Behind does is putschools into a reactivemode. There ai'e schoolsftii'ther on in this processwho panic and don't staytrue to themselves," hesaid. "What we really hadto do was make sure wewere staying true to our-selves, and to our mis-sion.,'

Need foi' the i'estruc-turing plan was triggeredby the federal educationlaw when Niles West failedto make so-called "ade-quate year progress" lastyeai But its requirementsvill simply reinforce exist-ing practices, or acceler-ate them, Osburn said.

(Schools fail to makeadequate yearly progress,as defined by federal law,when a set percentage ofstudents fails to meet orexceed official learningstandards. That minimumwas 55 percent this yeauThe 55 percent level mustbe met not only by thestudent population as awhole, but by every sepa-rate sub-group of stu-dents, and this year, NuesWest students with dis-abilities did not reach thatlevel.)

Staff also plan toSut'vey freshmen abouttheir interests and back-ground so that they canci'eate home-room popuia-tions that are as diverseas possible, within thatsingle-gender grouping.

State set to ax program for elderlyBy JOHN HUSTON

[email protected]

Without the Red TapeCutters program, 73-year-old Margaret Dobrynskithinks she'd still be livingthrough harsh winters inan unheated trailer, un-able to afford her bloodpressure and cholesterolmedicine.

But the program,which helped her andthousands of other CookCounty seniors, has beenmarked for elimination inthis year's state budgetproposal.

Dobrynski, of North-lake, said her financial sit-uation had grown prettybleak before a friend ree-ommended the program.

She now receives assis-tance with her medicinecosts as well as for herutilities. With the subsidy,she's been able to savesome money and recentlymoved from her trailer toa low-cost home.

"They helped me out alot," Dobrynski said. "If itwasn't for them, I would-n't know which way toturn."

What makes Red TapeCutters unique is that itstrained volunteers andstaff members not onlyhelp senior citizens iden-tify benefits they qualifrfor, but helps them applyto the programs.

Last year, on $251,000in state funding, the RedTape Cutters programprocured $23.6 million inbenefits for 14,000 seniorsin suburban Cook County.

But in Springfield, Goy.

Rod Blagojevich's belt-tightening effort has led tothe program's funding be-ing eliminated.

"It's such a proven suc-cess," said JonathanLavin, chief executive offi-cer of AgeOptions, whichorganized the Red TapeCutters program in 1994."It's such a manageableprogram that sustaining itis the minimum thing theIllinois legislature can do."

The idea was to link upeligible seniors with bene-fits and programs theywere not aware of. Itevolved into a more in-volved type of help navi-gating complicated appli-cation processes withthem or even picking upthose who can't get out oftheir home easily to applyfor certain benefits thatrequire in-person registra-tion.

"If you have some vi-sion issues or hearing is-sues or your mobility islow and someone sendsyou a letter saying youcan get some tax rebate, itmight not register forsome of the clientele wesee that ahi they need todo is send a simple form,"Lavin said.

RTC also does out-reach in the ¿,ommunity,he added.

"It's just one of thoseprograms that works onail levels," Lavin said.

AgeOptions coordi-nates the suburban por-tion of the RTC program,placing staffmembers in11 sites. Chicago also hasan RTC program.

The program helped

seniors take part in 25 dif-ferent benefit programslast year.

In 2007, Red Tape Cut-ters helped funnel over$1.4 million in Low IncomeHome Energy AssistanceProgram (LIHEAP) fundsto 2,096 seniors, a proLgram designed to help paygas and electricity costsoverthewinter.

By far the largest mon-etary program RTChelped seniors take part inwas Spousal Impoverish-ment, which allows quali-fying persons to keep halftheir asets if they decideto live independently afterputting their spouse in anursing home.

. RTC helped 99 subur-ban Cook seniors sign upfor the complicated pro-gram, translating to $9.5million in monetary bene-fits. Another popular pro-gram Red Tape Cuttershelps seniors take part inis called Circuit Breakers,a cash benefit that allevi-ates property tax and liv-ing costs.

The program must bereapphied for every year.An RTC volunteer keeps alist of previously enrolledseniors and calls them tostart the process overagain each year, Lavinsaid. RTC helped 3,897suburban Cook Countyseniors take part in theprogram, resulting in$712,321 in assistance.

Consuelo LeZama, theRTC coordinator at WestSuburban Senior Servicesin Bellwood, said manyelderly people don't knowwhat's available to them.

"We daily see clientsthat didn't know aboutCircuit Breakers or pro-grams the Department ofPublic Aid has to pay partof the Medicaid Part Dpremium," LeZama said."Many of them, they justdon't know"

But going the extrastep to help in the applica-tion process makes theprogram more successful,she said.

"That's why Red TapeCutters is so good,"LeZama said. "1 know thelegislators don't like to re-fer to us as cutting the redtape for benefits, butthere is a lot of red tape.".

State Sen. Jeff Schoen-berg, D-9th, of Evanstonsaid he's going to fight theprogram's funding elimi-nation. As chairman of theinfluential Senate Appro-priations II Committee, hehas drafted a specificfunding bill to restorefunding to RTC and plansto host a hearing in mid-May.

"This program is avery prominent part ofthe ability of those provid-ing services for senior citi-zens to help them navigatethe multiple agencies andprograms for which theyare eligible," Schoenbergsnid. He said the $251,000necessary to continue theprogram in suburbanCook is a realistic request.

OpinionWESAY

JIèdTap.é Cufteimust nÒt be cut

It's not a lot of money, as far as government spend-ing goes. But the $251,000 the state spent on the RedTape Cutters Program last year did a powerfulamount of good.

But the governor's proposed budget would elimi-nate funding for the program. To do so would be amistake and would cause actual hardship for thou-sands of senior citizens in Cook County.

The Red Tape Cutters trainedvolunteers and staffmembers help senior citizens identify benefits theyqualify for, and assists them in applying to the pro-grams. . -

Last year, on $251,000 in state funding, the RedTape Cutters program procured $23.6 million in bene-fits for 14,000 seniors in suburban Cook County.

The idea behind Red Tape Cutters was to link eligi-ble seniors with benefits and programs they were notaware of. It evolved into a more involved type of help- navigating complicated application processes withthem or even picking up those who can't get out oftheir home easily to apply for certain benefits that re-quire in-person registration.

AgeOptions coordinates the suburban portion ofthe RTC program, placing staff members in 11 sites.Chicago also has an RTC program.

In 2007, Red Tape Cutters helped funnel more than$1.4 million in Low Income Home Energy AssistanceProgram (LIHEAP) ftinds to 2,096 seniors, aprogramdesigned to help pay gas and electricity costs over thewintei

By fár the largest monetary program RTC helpedseniors take part in was Spousal Impoverishment;which allows qualifying persons to keep half their as-sets if they decide to live indepéndently after puttingtheir spouse in a nursing home. RTC helped 99 subui'-ban Cook seniors sign up for the complicated pro-gram, translating to $9.5 million in monetary benefits.

Another popular program Red Tape Cutters helpsseniors take part in is called Circuit Breakers, a cashbenefit that alleviates property tax and living costs.The program must be reapplied for every year. AnRTC volunteer keeps a list of previously enrolled sen-iors and calls them to start the process over againeach year. RTC helped 3,897 suburban Cook Countyseniors take part in the program, resulting in $712,321in assistance.

State Sen. Jeff Schoenberg, D-9th, of Evanston,said he's going to fight the program's funding elimina-tion. As chairman of the influential Senate Appropria-tions II Committee, he has drafted a specific fundingbill to restore funding to RTC and plans to host ahearing in mid-May.

We implore Illinois legislators to support this ef-fort.

Seldom do we see a program that does so muchgood for so little money as RedTape Cutters. To ehm-mate its funding would be close to malfeasance.

Achieving Crayola closure

PAUL SASSONE

Life was a lot less col-orful when I was a kid.

I don't mean dull.I mean we actually had

less color.There weren't as many

Crayola colors in thosedays, so our world waspretty primary.

The Crayolas I firstused were an eight-back:black, blue, red, greeu,yellow, brown, purple andorange.

There were biggerboxes, all the way up tothe 24-pack.

Crayolas were aneconomic indicator forus kids. The more Cray-olas you came to schoolwith, the more money

1000 WORDS

you!. parents had.Like most economic in-

dicators, the Crayola In-dex was not infallible. Alot of girls had to have the24-pack no matter howmuch or how little moneytheir parents made.

Though I had only aneight-pack, I still hadmore Crayolas thanBradley. He used to eat hisCrayolas, so he was al-ways a Crayola or foshort of a full pack.

This Crayola gap be-tween the haves and thehave-fewers created somehard feelings and embar-rassment. I understandthis can't happen todaybecause schools limit thenumber of Crayolas stu-dents can bring to school.(Is the GOP aware of thisrampant socialism?)

The reason I dredge upmy Crayola-deprivedchildhood is that this isthe 50th anniversary ofthe Crayola 64-pack.

According to the folks

who make Crayolas, the64-pack debuted on Cap-tain Kangaroo in 1958.Since then, more than 200million 64-packs havebeen sold - enough tocircle the earth 24 times.

By the way, Crayolacrayons were invented in1903. The wife of one ofthe inventors coined theterm "Crayola" by corn-bining the French wordsthat mean oil and chalk.

In honor of the 64-pack's anniversary - andin an attempt to find do-sure for my color-deprivedchildhood - I went outand bought me 64-pack.

And a Batman coloringbook.

So, do you rememberwhat color the Joker's faceis?

Burnt sienna?Desert sand?Atomic tangerine?Neon carrot?Maybe I'll use yellow.And stay within the

lines!

Message for cyclists

We applaud the mil-lions of Illinois driverswho willingly share theroad with bicyclists.They safely pass bicy-clists on the road withthree feet or more ofspace, which is now thelaw in illinois and nineother states. Most driv-ers show the utmost re-spect, follow all the traf-

- fie laws and yield theright-of-way.

Many drivers alsoshow their support bysmiling and waving whenthey see bicyclists on theroad. These drivers helpmake bicycling safe andfun for us all and pro-vide encouragement forothers to take up bicy-cling as well.

The vast majority ofIllinois drivers don'tthink it necessary tohonk their horns, shout"get off the road," shaketheir fists or drive per-ilously close to bicycliststo intimidate them. Theyknow this behavior canlead to road rage,crashes, injuries andeven fatalities. Somedrivers try to justifytheir aggressive actionsby pointing out that bi-cyclists flaunt trafficlaws, run red lights andstop signs and ride threeor more abreast whileimpeding the reasonableflow of traffic. -

There is no argumentthat some bicyclists dofail to follow traffic laws,and that reflects badlyon the entire bicyclingcommunity. If we as bi-cyclists want to be ac-cepted on the road bymore drivers, then wehave to be good citizenson our bikes as well. Mu-tuaI respect means mu-tuai safety.

Several months ago, weasked our readers ifany ofthem had attended the Si-mon and Garfunkel concerton Nov. 8, 1969, at SouthernIllinois University in Carbon-dale. We asked because Co-

lumbia/Legacy has now Ñ-leased an album, "Live 1969,"that includes five songs re-corded at SItJ: "The 59thStreet Bridge Song (Feelin'Groovy)' "Mrs. Robinson,"

"So Long, Frank LloydWright," "The Sounds of Si-lence" and "I Am a Rock."

The 17-track album fea-tures songs from six liveshows between Oct. 31 andNov. 28, 1969. Several of thesongs were recorded with theintention ofbeing Simon andGarfunkel's sixth album, afollow-up to "Bridge," butthat album never happened,mainly because the duo wereabout to break up.' "Live1969" is now beingsold at

Starbuck.s locations wit/i a wide re-tail releaseplannedfor thefall of2008.

Alice Bluhm, Ava, Ill.

My older sister, Mary Lynn(Mott) Fniedi who lives in Evanston,told me that you were looking forcomments from people who went tothe Simon and Garfunkel concert atSITJ on Nov. 8, 1969. I was there withsome ofmy family!

I was a freshman at SIU and it wasParents Weekend. My parents, Clayand Mary Mott, and my 8-year-old-sister, Grace, had come down to Car-bondale from Des Plaines to see me.The night before the concert Gracehad stayed overnight with me in mydorm room on Thompson Point. Shewas very excited to be with the col-lege kids instead of staying at the ho-tel with our parents and therefore gotvery little sleep that night. That daywe did some sightseeing and drovedown to where the Mississippi andOhio rivers converge. The photo I'msending along is one ofmy little sister;Grace, and I at the door of my dormroom before our parents took us tothe concert.

I loved the harmony of Simon and

Garfunkel's singing voices and Iwould listen to their records often.Back then, I felt fortunate to have acheap little phonograph player in mydorm room so I could listen to my fa-vorite music. The only other type oftechnology I had was the party-linephone hanging on the wall that Ishared with three other girls in mydorm. Oh, how things have changed!

I had a great time at the concertand Simon and Garfunkel were won-derful! My little sister also liked theduo; however, all the traveling, freshair and the excitement ofcollege lifewere a bit too much for an 8-year-old.Grace fell asleep on my shoulder asSimon and Garfunkel sang the veryloud ending to "Bridge Over TroubledWatet:"

I was very disappointed when Si-mon and Garfunkel broke up and Ididn't see eitherofthem perform inperson again. Many years later I didenjoy seeing a TV special of themperforming in New York's CentralPark and I bought that album also.

AI Hatcher, Evanston- I did attend the Nov. 8, 1969 concert at the S Arena feaû*ì

ing Simon and Garfunkel. I remember them performing a grshow and especially appreciating Art Garfunkel's fine voicemost prominent memory though is the rumor that they didperform in the round (the SRi Arena had a rotating rouastage that manyperformers used) because Paul Simonssitive about his bald spot!

Heidi Grosowsky, Skokie

I lived in Carbondale and attended the 1969 Simon andGarfunkel concert as a high school sophomore. We werefortunate that SIU was on the college circuit ofsome bigname performers. I remember "Bridge Over TroubledWater" the most from the concert - the clear ringing bellofGarfunkel's beautiful voice filling the arena - a hushedsilence while he sang in a smoky spotlight, and then the,din of applause when they finished. It was a very intimateconcert, despite the size ofthe arena and the number ofpeople there. Unfortunately, I haven't seen either per-former live since

Janet Bishop, Park Ridge -

I believe it was '69 when I saw them, but it was at OhioUniversity in Athens at the Convocation Center. It was agreat show, but I was too far back and wished I could havebeen right up front. You see, they were important to me. Ifirst "discovered" them in the summer of 1966 when I wasworking at a camp in Maryland. I believe I must haveplayed "The Sounds ofSilence" in every spare moment,although I can't remember what I played it on. I doubtthat I took my old hi-fi with me, but somehow I played it. Ican still feel myself sitting in the heat and listening to "IAm a Rock." By the time ofthe concert, they had becomefamiliar to me. There was so much change, but musicfrom SimonandGarfunkeland, ofcourse,.tlieMamasand Papas

Yukking up 'Baby'

BRUCE INGRAM

FILM CRITIC

Baby Mama ***When you consider how

much formula has beenpumped into "BabyMama" it's a buddymovie, an ode to femaleempowerment and a heart-fluttering romance all inone - it's kind of impres-sive that this pleasant, rea-sonably amusing pregno-comedy manages to re-member what it's doing.

It does though, and itstays surprisingly light onits swollen feet, thanks toa script that's not particu-larly dazzling, but far fromdumb, and a grade-A cast

(including cameos bySteve Martin and Sigour-ney Weaver) thàt makesthe most of the grade-Bmaterial. The most inter-esting thing about "BabyMama" is that it's a "Sat-urday Night Live"-basedproject from producerLome Michaels (withwriter/director MichaelMcCullers, who co-scripted the "Austin Pow-ers" movies and starsTina Fey and Amy Poehlerall products of "SNL")that's being targeted di-rectly at women. Not sofar from "Wayne's World"or "A Night at the Rox-bury" or "Black Sheep" interms of half-clever half-crass comedic style, butwith an emphasis on vela-tionships, biological clocksand babies. Unless I'mmissing something, "Su-perstar," starringMollyShannon, is the only otherfemale-oriented feature toemerge from the "SNL"

a little less than corn-pletely trustworthy.

But, of course, this isn'tthe sort of movie you go tosee because the story haslimitless depths. You go to"Baby Mama" because theidea of career-woman Feyand trailer-trashy Poehlergoing to birthing class asa couple strikes you asfunny - and on that scoreit's perfectly satisfactory.Even if it's just becausethe instructor (SiobhanFalIon, also an "SNL"grad) lisps her Rs like

Bawbwa Wawa: "As yourpwegnancy pwogwesses,your partner can help youpwep your pewineum forthe gweat stwetch of de-livew"

That's a prospect thatdoesn't appeal to either ofthem, but it's a classic situ-ation-comedy scenario,one that almost could havebeen written for Lucy andEthel in "I Love Lucy."

Except for the bitwhere the instructor as-sumes that they're "wes-bian wovers."

traffic. Active cruise allows thevehicle to come to a completestop Without losing its settingand then accelerate back up roa set speed with only a touchof the accclérator pedal fromthe driver. Audio options alsoexpand with a USB adapter foran iPod or MP3 player.

Engineering also has beena hallmark for BMW with itsengines recognized for theirperformance, smoothness andsophistication. The test vehicle

. Lb . ) ' .t -

. was the 5-series range topperand came fitted with the top V-8engine: the 4.8-liter, 360-horse-power/torque all-aluminumN62. This is the same V-8engine used in the 750Li Sedan,but in the 5-series it resides in asportier, lighter, more agile car.

The engine was backedby a SWeet six-speed manualtransmission. When shelling out$69,820 (it started at $58,500)for a 550i equipped like the testvehicle, fuel economy numbersare probably not the mostimportant numbers, But, in caseyou're curious, the 550i checksin at 15 mpg in the city and 22mpg on the luighwa

Cioing beyond status, tech-nology and luxury features, thd550i is about the drive: Powervluen you need it, smoothness.throughout and afecling ofcontrol constantly.

Tite performance parttranslates into 5.6 secondsfrom O-w-60 mph with amanual transmission that reallyshifted precisely and allowedmc to bang through the gearssmoothly for optimal powerapplication.For

more sensible drivingapplications, the 550i takesadvantage of an aluminumsuspension, large-diameter disebrakes and meaty 19-bs'-8.0

As with all BMW vehicles,dynamic stabili t)' control is stan-dard equipment and it providesa wide range of traction andstability functions. The brakingaction is confident, straight and'predictable.

The interior is Very buttoncticlown .- call it professionaland crisp with some really fine;leather and comfortable seatingforall.

In the end, the 550i driving?experience is so well balanced,velvety' £st and nimble tl)arsonic drivers may find thiscar unccciting because it doeseverything so vell.

The 550i sedan definitelyplays iríthe big leagues withcompetitors like the tadillacSTS-V, Infiniti M45 and Met-cedes-Benz E-550. Even withminor flaws like the &straetingiDrive system, the 550i's leacictship role is secute for ant,ther 'year.

It's been avhilc since l'vc stalledonecjf m' test ears, But T stalled the2008 Mazda RX-8 at least three itnes.I was feeling pretty pathetic untilI let a friend, who drives a manualtransmission vehicle every day, pull the.car into the garage. He in)mediatelystalled ir.

I laughed vith relief It wasn't ustmc.

The clutch on the RX-8 is stiff andtemperamental. 1f you don't rei caseit jusE right, you stall. As I quicklydiscovered, this is nor a car that doeswell in Chicago traffic. Luckily, mycommute is mostly during non-rushtraffic times, so I could enjoy theacceletation rathet than be frustratedb)' the clutch.

The RX-8 is powered by a 1.3-literrotary engine, and since the teat"chicle had the six-speed manualtransmission, the horsepower ratingrang in at 232. With the automatictransmission, the horsepower dtops to212.

While I like the R.X-8 of its ownvolition, it the rotary engine thatmalees the car unique.

The crux of its uniqueness centersaround its RENESIS (rotary engine

geNlSlS) engine. I n this engine,a triangular rotor turns in an ovalcombustiot, chamber, and the threePoints of the rotor divide the chamberin three. As it turns, the rotor takesin the fuel/air mixture, compresses it,burns it and expels the exhaust.

The RX-8 is the only mass-produced consumer carpowered bys rotary engine.

Developed by Di Peux Wankel in:1 957, the rotary engine first appearedin a Mazda vehicle in I 967. With the2008 RX-8, Mazda is celebrating the40th anniversary of the rotary engineand has created a limited-editionmodel commemorating four decadesof rotary.

The test vehicle was a 40thanniversary model and had a baseprice of $32,005. The special exteriorpaint, leather interior and annívcisarybadging bring the price up about$5,000 more than regular RX-8 model.The only option added to the testvehicle was Sirius satellite radio ($430,),so the as-tested price was $32,435.

From its quirky looks to its sportyride, I thoroughly enjoyed my time inthe test vehicle.

The exterior design is low slung

and looks like nothing else out there.Parr of that involves another uniquefeature: rear doors.

With 32.2 inches of legroom inthe rear, there isn't much space fortall passengers, but at least they'll beable to wedge themselves back thereeasily via the rear doors. J did manageto fit two adult passengers in the carwithout completely uncomfortableresults.

I like the blue backlighting on thegauges when the headlights are off.But this keeps things bright enough atnight that you might forgetto turn onyour headlights, which did a coupletimes. Auto-on headlights would beheipftil.

Even though I'm short, I found agood driver's position with the eight-way power adjustments. The seatswere comfortable and the side bolstersvcre supportive without being

overwhelming.Because I sat lower in the vehicle,

I did notice an unusual blind spot.The side mirrors were at eye level for

. me. Combine that with the A-pillarand I had to do a lot of bending andstretching to look around a cornerbefore turning.

Rotary engine puts this sports car in a class of its owni did have a few issues, hovever,

that had nothing to do with my size.lirst, the rear doors combine tocreate a chunky B-pillar that blocks):°' view as you check your blindspots. Another problem is the cupholders, They're positioned behindthe gcarshift, so you constantly hit anybeverages nestled in them with yourelbowas you shift.

The last problem I had is. denite1y!a female issue. There is a small gapbetween the dead pedal and the floorin which the spiky heel of toy shoegot stuck. Jr scared the snot out of meas I was trying to move my foot to theclutch to do a quick shift.

Overall, I was incredibly pleasedwith the Performance of the RX-8.lt cornered vcll, and I had a blastpushing through the gears for quickacceleration The sdff Suspensiongives a great connection to the road, E

which can be a lot of fun on winding iroads.

The RX-8 is definitely a mbced bagsof quirks and fün, but it's worth a testdrive if you're looking for somethingSporty. All things told, the RX-8 is aunique alternative to the traditionalsportscar.

MORTGAGE NEWS

Bankrate mortgage updateBy Holden Lewis . Bankrate.com

Mortgage rates continued to ride the seesaw this week, downone week and up the next. This time, it was their turn to go up.

The benchmark 30-year fixed-rate mortgage rose 7 basis pointsto 6.03 percent, according to the Bankrate.corn national surveyoflarge lenders. The mortgages in this week's survey had anaverage total oFO.31 discount and origination points. One yearago, the mortgage index was 6.29 percent; four weeks ago, itwas 5.98 percent. The benchmark 15-year fixed-rate mortgagerose 9 basis points, to 5.65 percent.

Rates went up alongwith the news that inflation is still verymuch with us, notwithstanding the strong probability that theeconomy is in recession. On Tuesday, the Labor Departmentannounced that overall wholesale prices rose I . I percent inMarch -- a rate that's about six times faster than the FederalReserve's comfort level. The core wholesale inflation rate rose0.2 percent.

The two reports presented a mixed inflation picture, leading tomoderately higher mortgage rates.

Fees for riskier loans

There's something else that has a more direct effect on themortgage rate that you pay: risk-based pricing. Mortgagefinancing giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have beenadding fees that make anything but the most plain-vanillahome loan more expensive. This is an important point to you,a reader oftbis article, because,the above-rate averages are forplain-vanilla loans.

You can get the best combination ofrate and fees if you'reborrowing less than $4 i 7,000 to buy a single-family house as aprimary residence, and you make enough money to easily affordthe house payments on a 30-year, fixed-rate loan, and you madea down payment ofat least 20 percent, and the house is in aneighborhood where prices are nor falling, and you have goodto eicellent credit, with a score of740 or above..

New Homes HOME FiNdER Pioneer Press PioneerLocal.com

ByTracy EvansSpecial to Pioneer Press

Gail Kueker has a full day of meeting with herclients, viewing several homes and influencing thelayout of dozens of rooms. But, she might not see oneface or walk through one door - thanks to her computer.

After operating for ten years out of her home, theowner of Barrington's Finishing Touches Studio hasmade a huge impact on her business through the simpleuse ofemail. Kueker supplements her year and a half olddesign shop with an e-decorator service that bothlightens the load and empowers her most loyalcustdmers.

"I feel that people want quick information without alot ofuiiss," she explains. "The reason why this service isso great is in thinking about how many times you wereworking on something in your home and you justwanted to know if it's going in the right direction. Yes,you can ask your husband, mom or neighbor but all youhavè to d is email me a question and your answer isconfirmed."

For a flat rate of $35, Kueker can consult on andassess digital photos and respond to the simplest ormost complex design question while her customer neverhas to leave her laptop. J-1er eye is trained after years ofworking as a photo stylist and designer for major studiosin Chicago, where she would edit her room designsthrough a photographic perspective only. While depthcan potentially be an issue in judging photographs ofher client's rooms, she finds most work boils down to afew simple issues.

LocationJPeshigo.

r Changing the face ofdecorating services

"Most people have rooms just jammed withstuff or the complete opposite where there is nocharacter or draw to the room," Kucker says."Nearly every room l've ever been in has hadsome form of bad placement, either furniture oraccessories and in most cases both. The firstitem always is to get the room in order and tohave at least one focal point."

While many clients might be apprehensive abouttrusting a decorator's counsel strictly through anelectronic relationship, the time and cost savings of nothaving to open your home is invaluable for today's busyfamilies. One of Kueker's loyal clients is a mother andftull time lawyer, who has relied on a mix of electroniccommunications and visits to Finishing Touches visitsfor support in making design decisions about her livingroom and den.

"It let me play decorator with an affordable and easyto reach expert to back me up," recounts theBarrington-based client. "We did ail ofthat via pictures.The entire process really did not require her to see myhouse which is a huge cost and time savings."

As with many clients, her priority was restyling hergreat room to better accommodate her guests. Kuekerhelped assess the floor plan by examining thephotographs and suggested something her client hadn'tconsidered: splitting her sectional sofa into a twosmaller sofas and a chair.

"What Gail helped do was give me a direction at thestart with the seating arrangements, which was a hugèbreakthrough in helping me find a comfortable way toseat a lot more people. Then later she validated andguided my fabric and coordinating items selection," said

the satisfied client.Today, Kueker enjoys stocking her design shop with

creative and unexpected touches that help spark hercustomers own design visions. She plays offthe cleaner,more streamlined designs popular in homes today,complimented with a more significant emphasis onaccents.

Kueker always encourages her clients to stop in andcheck out the unique options at her shop and researchdecorating possibilities before coming to a decision, andshe allows her clients to continue emailing her withsmall questions after the consultation is complete.Uniquely, however, she belongs to the new school ofdesign consultants who recognize the independence andownership desired by her clients.

"It's important to see that good old school retailremains a very needed thing in this world," admitsKueker whose e-decorator service has long been a partof her Web site, even before she opened her shop. "Butthe bottom line is people also want service and attentionthat fits their needs."

HAROLD & KUMAR ESCAPEFROM GIJANTANAMO BAY

The titular stoners (John Cho

rorists and carted off to the laugh-riot military prisofl. John Hurwitz

and sexual content, graphic nudity,

STILL PLAYING

. THE COUNTERFEITERS*** 1,2

The big question at the heartof this morally challengingHolocaust drama is about survival:How far should we be willing to go

to make it through one more day?Based in part on the true story ofprisoners in the Sachsenhausenconcentration camp - bankers,

printers, forgers - who were forcedto help the Nazis counterfeit mas-sive quantities of dollars and

pouñds to flood Allied economies.

Winner of the Oscar for BestForeign Language Film. In German

with subtitles. (BI) (98 min.) Rated R

for some strong violence, brief sex-

uality/nudity and language.

;: ART

88 MINUTESO

An FBI forensic specialist (AI

Pacino) has a little less than an

hour and a half to figure out who's

poisoned him. (105 min.) Jon Avnet

("Fried Green Tomatoes") directed

the thriller. Rated R for disturbingviolent content, brief nudity and

language.

FORBIDDEN KINCDOMA kung fu-obsessed teen

(Michael Angarano) is sent back in

time to ancient China to free an

imprisoned warrior. Rob Minkoff

"Stuart Little" directed the fantasy

adventure featuring martial artsmovie legends Jet Li and Jackie

Chan in their first pairing. (113 min.)

Rated PG-13 for sequences of mar-

tial arts action and some violence.

FORGETTINGSARAN MARSHALL ***

"Sarah Marshall" is the most

recent production from the JuddApatow comedy works and it's like-

ly to score as high as "The 40 Year

Old Virgin," "Knocked Up" and

"Superbad" with audiences who

enjoy seeing otherwise-formulaic

light, sentimental comedies

pumped full of high-octane raunch-

ola. Apatow ensemble member

Jason Segel ("How I Met Your

Mother," "Knocked Up") plays a

strugglingmusician who goes on a

Hawaiian vacation after being

unceremoniously dumped by his TV

star girlfriend (Kristen Bell of TV's

"Veronica Mars") only to lind thatshe's trysting at the same resort

with her new sex-god rock-star

boyfriend (English comic actor

Russell Brand, who basically steals

the movie).That's not a lot to qetexcited about, in broad outline, butthere's more to "Sarah Marshall,"

fortunately, than its story. Segel ischarming in a wounded puppy-dog

sort of way, the supporting charac-

ters are likably odd, the dialogue is

funny (filthy, but funny) and theres

a sweetness and generosity about

its overall disposition that's veryappealing. There are no bad guys in

"Sarah Marshall." Best of all, the

film always leels emotionally gen

uine. And, while Segel spends a sur-

prising amount of time in the movie

full-on stark naked, it's always in

service of the plot. Well, that's not

true, but it does make a couple of

otherwise prosaic scenes memo-

rable. And it definitely makes thepoor guy seem vulnerable.

Especially when everybody laughs.

(BI) (112 min.) Reviewed in this sec-

tion. Rated R for sexual content,

language and some graphic nudity.

HORTON HEARS A WHOHorton the Elephant struggles

to save the microscopic Who corn-munity when they cry for help froma speck of dust Jim Carrey andSteve Carell are featured in this ani-mated version of the Dr. Seuss cIas-sic. (88 min.) Rated G.

LEATHERHEADS ** 1/2Is screwball comedy a lost art?

Much as it would like to demon-

strate that comediés in the style ofHoward Hawks, Preston Sturges

and Frank Capra are still a live

option, "Leatherheads" is evidence

to the contrary. George Clooney

directed this comedy about theearly days of pro football and stars

as "Dodge" Connelly, the hustling

captain of the down and out Duluth

Bulldogs. Dodge schemes to

resusscitate his team by recruiting

a Princeton football star/AllAmerican war hero (John Krasinski

of"The Office) then becomesinvolved in a romantic triangle withthe kid and the lady reporter(Renée Zeliweger) who's been

assigned to cozy up to him anddebunk his war record. Clooney

works hard - a little too hard - tomake "Leatherheads" play like "HisGirl Friday," "Hail the Conquering

Hero" or "lt Happened One Night,"

and it's enjoyable enough as an

academic exercise, but everythingabout it, from the snappy reparteeto the battle-of-the-sexes romance,

comes across like mimicry andfeels slightly belabored. lt's not adisaster, but "Leatherheads" does

fall disappointingly flat - like fizz-less champagne. (BI) Rated P6-13

for brief strong language.

MY BLUEBERRY NIGHTSAfter a bad breakup, a waitress

(singer Norah Jones) goes on a

cross-country journey and meets a

variety of even-more-lonesome

souls. The first English-language

film by Hong Kong filmmaker Wong

Kar Wai ("Happy Together," Chung

King Express"). (111 min.) Rated P6-13

. including violence, drinking and

smoking.

NIM'S ISUNDWhen the father of a young girl

(Abigail Breslin of "Little Miss

Sunshine') disappears from theisland where they live, she calls onher favorite adventure author

(Jodle Foster) for assistance - notknowing the writer never sets footoutside her home. (95 min.) Rated

PG for mild adventure action and

brief language.

PRICELESSA young golddigger (Audrey

Tautou of "Amelie") sets her sightson a lowly hotel employee (Gad

Elmaleh) alter mistaking him for awealthy man. Pierre Salvadori

('After You") directed the romanticcomedy. In French with subtitles.

Guthrie (19124967), theiconic folksinger, writer,labor and social justice ad-vocate, continues to fasci-'nate people everywhere.Almost everyone hasheard - and likely sung

his most famous song,"This Land Is Your Land."

Itoots doctor

Halker has a Ph.D. inhistory from the Univer-sity of Minnesota and ison the board ofthe WoodyGuthrie Foundation.Halker sings and writesroots music and recentlyreleased "Wisconsin2.13.63 Volume One" onRevolting Records. Ilealso has produced a seriesof recordings, "Folk Songsof Illinois," in conjunctionwith the Illinois Hutnani-

ties Council.. Halker believes thatthe songs of WoodyGuthrie are still importantand entertaining.' "The issues he talked'about are still relevant,"he said. "For example, hissong 'Deportee' was aboutillegal aliens, and is still acurrent issue, even thoughhe wrote it in 1947. And "IAin't Got No Home" wasabout homelessness dur-ing the Depression, an-other issue we're in themiddle of right now."

Halker thinks Guthriewould be disappointed byour lack of progress inthese social issues.

"Yes, he would be dis-appointed. He was radical,but a very American radi-cal who really believed inthe country. We have a lotof social issues that we'll

start to deal with, then weback off, so they stay with

'us," said Halker.

Lapsed hero worship. Asked if he personally ,,

idolizes Guthrie as amythical hero, Halker an-swered thoughtfully: "As ateenager, I had a romanticvision of him as a rebel.But Guthrie had short-comings as a human be-ing. He was notorious forbeing away from home,being in debt, and not al-ways being frank withpeople, including hisfriends. Most heroes,when you scratch the sur-face, are [far from per-fect]. Woody Guthrie ismythic, he was a real po-etic voice in America. ButI put him in a more honestperspective now thanwhen I was, say, 21."

If he were alive today,

Halker said Guthrie would"probably be involved in

, international issues, like

'labor coziditiâns in places'like Chiha. And he wouldb còmplaining about eco-nomic justice in the coun-try"'

Notably, Halker has aconnection to the Guthriefamily, having recentlycompleted a Europeantour with Woody's son,Arlo Guthrie.

Woody Guthrie'sdaughter, Nora, has calledHalker one of her father's"torchbearers?'

"I definitely feel it's im-portant to keep spreadinghis music," said Halker.

Full Disclosure: WriterLull Kuzina hosts the"Folk Festival" show forWDCB Public Radiowhere Bucky Halker re-cently appeared as a stu-dio guest.

last remaining truth-tellingGolden Compass to helpher uncle with the help ofrebel Gyptians, a flyingwitch queen (Eva Green), aTexas sky pilot (Sam El-liott) and a warrior ice bear(with the stentorian voiceoflan McKellen).

"27 Dresses"

for a story on the ultimateperpetual bridesmaid. Thisis a light and enteitaiingromantic comedy, withsome screwball twists,a series ofhilarious brides-maid scenes and a good old-fashioned Hollywood end-ing. Rated PG-13 for Ian-guage, some innuendo andsexua1it

LARS AND THE REALGIRL *** 1/2

Ifthe premise of "Larsand the Real Girl" - a shy,phobic young guy who fallsin love with a life-size Inter-net doll - were a lame TVsitcom, it would be pre-

Thre's a lot to admireabout "The GoldenCompass." The charactersare unusually complicated,

. the special effects aredazzling and the perilis disturbingly imagin-ative - as Magisteriumscientists plot to control thenext generation byseparating children fromtheir souls. The best thingabout the whole business,though, is the fact thatPullman made the heroofhis story a girl. Therejust aren't enough ofthem to go around. Besides,Lyra has twice the moxieofHarry Potter. Shelooks like she couldstraighten out the Magis-terium and then give Volde-mort a good spanking.witha minimum of fuss - andwithout a magic wand. Rat-ed PG-13 for sequences offantasy violence..(In storesTuesday)

- Bruce Ingram

"Lars and the Real Girl"

dictable, crude andschmaltzy. But "Lars" is in-stead a quirky, smart, sweetand ftinny fam. What reallymakes "Lars" work is theterrific cast, including RyanGosling in another amazing,chameleon-like perform-ance and the equally goodPaul Schneider as hisbrother, Gus, and EmilyMortimer as his sister-in-law Karin, who at first arethrified when the reclusiveLars announces he has aguest at his convertedgarage home, and thenshocked, when the guestturns out to be the lifelike,but clearly plastic, Bianca.Rated PG-13 for some sex-related content.

RECENTREVIEWS

"Cloverfield" is a gratifying

thriller despite, or maybe

because of, its lack of

exposition. We never learn

why a 50-story alien-like

creature starts tearing down

buildings and munching up

people in Manhattan, or

where it comes from. A small

group of friends run from the

monster and one of them

records the action on his

camcorder. li you have a prob-

lem with shaky cam all the

time, this might not be the

movie for you. Rated PG-13 for

violence and terror. (Jennifer

Thomas)

NOTEWORTHYCD REVIEWS

HAYES CARLL

"TROUBLE IN MIND"

* *Religion is a regular theme in

country music, but it isnt

often you hear a country

singer vowing to administer a

beating to Christ, as Hayes

Carli does in She Left Me For

Jesus." Carli isn't being bias-

phemous; hes simply singing

smart, funny lyrics from an

anguished character's point of

view. The raspy-voiced Texan

comes off as good-natured

throughout this third album,

playing music that's some-

where between alt-country,

Nashville, honky-tonk and blue-

grass. Even when Carli covers a

Tom Waits song, l Don't Wanna

Grow Up," he makes it sound

like pure Americana tWang.

Dream"

PETER MOREN

THE LAST TYCOON"

Peter Morén is one-third of the

Swedish trio Peter, Bjärn and

John, who hit the charts last

year with "Young Folks." You

know, thatwhistiing song.

Peter is by himself on this solo

debut, singing lilting melodies

in a nasal voice over jangly

acoustic guitar arpeggios, with

some touches of orchestral

strings. He occasionally gets

too precious, but he also

achieves some pretty moments

of intimacy reminiscent of Nick

Drake and Elliott Smith.

- Robert Loerzel

Performing Saturday atSchubas, 3159 N. Southport,Chicaqo.

KEY TRACK: "My Match"

CONSTANTINES

'1KENSINGTON HEIGHTS"

* * * 1/2On their fourth album,

Toronto's Constantines stick

with their oid formula - plaV-

ing tense rock songs filled with

brooding space, bass lines that

hit you like a left hook, and

gruff vocals that occasionally

lift the choruses like anthems.

The lyrics aren't ornate but

they are poetic. One line

force of nature Otis Redding

gets a deluxe reworking here,

ART; CLUBS .: :FESTIVA

av-t-

on 'Let lt Be" where the

group's amplification of Paul

Westerberg's songwriting

comes fully, gloriously togeth-

er on tracks such as "I Will

Dare," "Favorite Thing,"

"Androgynous," "Unsatisfied,"

"Sixteen Blue" and "Answering

Machine." lt was the first of

five superb albums the band

would release before breaking

up in 991. Best news of all for

fans of the Mats: Deluxe reis-

and the performances justify

the lavish repackaging. Sure,

including the original monaural

and stereo recordings might be

a bit over the top, but with the

astonishing performances con-

tamed herein, who's to quibble

with the zeal with which these

songs have been repackaged.

SPEAKERS

RECENTLYREVIEWED

MARIA CAREY

"EMC2"**1/2

Carey has reinvented herself,

but her new persona as a club

girl who can find a rhyme for

"baby's mama" isn't particular-

iy believable.

- Jennifer Thomas

JAMES MCMURTRY

"JUST US KIDS"

Singer-songwriter James

McMurtry sings in a droning

baritone that is as dry as a

summer breeze blowing across

the flatlands of his native

Texas. And, on this stunning

collection of songs, that voice

is just right. - Jeff Wisser

JORDAN ZEVON

"INSIDES OUT"

The late Warren Zevon's son

has his father's gift for bent

humor. But, unlike his dad,

Jordan Zevon delivers his

wacky taies with a musical

approach that falls somewhere

between the savage assault of

a young Elvis Costello and the

more pristine, orchestrated

sounds of Brian Wilson. lt's a

strange and often wonderful

musical niche. - JW

NICK CAVE & THE BAD.

SEEDS

"DIG!!l LAZARUS, DIGlI!"

A good sample of Cave's varied

sounds and moods. On the

best songs, Cave builds ten-

sion with his verbose out-

bursts, and then a catchy cho-

rus comes to the rescue.

TFlE FIXER - Chicago Sun-Times

Dear FLxer A yearago, I purchased anAmerican Telecomphone from Office Depotwith rebates totaling$30. I submitted the ap-propriate form with pur-chase documentation asrequired and waited.

After a few months Icalled them and was toldthat my information wasreceived, that every-thing was fine, but it wasunknown when the re-bate would be sent.

I called again inAugust and was toldthe same thing. I t hencalled in November andwas directed to anothernumber, and the prere-

named a Physical Activityand Fitness DemonstrationCenter by the President'sCouncil on Physical Fitnessand Sports. A Demonstra-tion Center school clearlyemphasizes physical activi-ty and fitness in its physi-cal-education program.Niles North achieved thestatus by: encouraging peri-odie health appraisals forall students; identi!ringphysically inactive studentsand programs to increasetheir daily physical activity;evaluating pupil progress atfeast once a year; offeringstudents opportunities totake part in the President'sChallenge; providing regu-lar physical education; pro-moting its physical educa-tion program and arrang-¡ng visits so others can ob-serve the program in ac-

Today, I called theoriginal number andasked for a supervisor. Iwis told the supervisorwasn't taking any callstoday.

It's only $30, but ayear-long wait is just abit much. Anything youcan do to move this alongis appreciated.

Bob Dame

Dear Bob: Thanks forproviding this week's ex-ample ofwhy The Fixerhates rebates. Consumersthink they're getting agreat deal when they seethe "after-rebate" price,but getting the money issometimes more troublethan it's worth.

We thought all hopewas lost when we calledAmerican 't'elecom andwere told they weren'tsure when they'd have thefunds to pay the rebates.

But then you reported

tion. The school will be in-eluded in the Demonstra-tion Center Project reportthat is presented to thePresident.

Dear Fixer: I am writ-Ing this for DanielZacharias. He has beenvery III, SO he has relo-cated to be closer to hisfamily and a better hos-pital. He has been out ofhis house since Decem-ber.

Being that the houseis vacant and the tern-perature is set at 40 dc-grecs, the bare minimumofelectricity is running.lioweve,; he is still get-ting huge bills. When wecaLli for an explanation,we get the runaround.

bills are so high and theyhave nothing to offer us.Their only option is topay the bill and basicallydeal with it. NIPSCO is amonopoly and its costsare outlandish.

Della Aleman andDaniel Zacharias

Dear Della and Daniel:It does seem logical thatturning the heat way downwould save a lot on yourbill, so we asked NIPSCOto review Daniel's account.

Nick Meyer, spokes-man for NIPSCO, said thereview showed that theusage didn't go down allthat much. Some thermsvere still being used toniaintain the 40-degreetemperature. With tempsbeing an average ofonly 24.3 degrees in Feb-ruary and 23.9 degrees inMarch - and with energyp1.ices being up, too -heating the home eventhat much could have con-tributed to the bill. Largeappliances also could havebeen a flictor.

erno to allcomfortfoodies:Potatoesaren't just

for side dishes anymore.New recipes are pushingspuds to the center oftheplate. With potato entréeand dessert dishes or mod-em spins on the classicsides, comfort food gour-mets are paying homage towhat the United Nationshas declared "The Interna-tional Year ofthe Potato."

Terri Pedone createdsweet potato latkes at herLincolnshire Gouimetrestaurant, which she lastyear expanded to include a

Highland Park eatery Shegrates sweet potatoes andmolds them together withother ingredients by usingmatzo meal, a ground, un-leavened bread that mostgrocers carry duringPassover season. Then shefries themjust like pan-cakes and tops them offwith dollops ofsour creamor salmon mousse.

"Sweet potatoes shouldbe big and hard," shéwarned. "Stay away fromsoft ones. To keep themfresh, store them in a dryarea. Never put them in arefrigeraton"

Enchiladas with purplepotato filling or coffee cakemade with potato doughare a few new twists on po-tato cookery from Bruce

Weinstein and Mark Scar-brough in The UltimatePotato Book: Hundreds ofWaysto Thrn America'sFavorite Side Dish into aMeal (Harper Coffins,2005).

Versatile veg

"We wanted to showthat potatoes are very ver-satile and international.Potatoes show up in recipesfrom all over the world incountries like China and In-dia," Weinstein said.

For conventional potatoside dishes, they offer timesaving pointers like makingmashed potatoes by mi-crowaving one pound ofthem in their skins on highfor seven minutes. Theyshould be placed in a con-

tamer with a vented lid, butyou don't need to 1rick theskin.

"Everyone thinks youneed to prick their skins sothey don't exl)lode," Wein-stein said. "But they don'texplode."

Instead, the skin actsas a seal that keeps thesteam in and cooks the po-tatoes so they are instant-ly ready to mash. Whilemashing, he adds aboût 1/4cup of chicken stock, i ta-blespoon of Dijon-stylemustard and a dash of saltand peppen

Weinstein reverses theapproach to make roastedpotatoes by letting thesteam out. He makes potatowedges by cutting theminto quarters. Then he toss-es the wedges in olive oiland herbs and microwavesthem on medium for 14minutes.

You can still find tradi-tionally oven-roasted spudsat Ñstaurants like Piano CPi-ano in Park Ridge. ChefMike Fokas roasts Vesuviopotatoes for about an hourin a little olive oit and garlic.Fokas also makes mashedpotatoes the old fashionedway, by boiling golden pota-toes. When mashing, helikes to throw in some mas-carpone cheese to makethem smooth.

Say cheese

"It's a good trick in a lotofthings," said Fokas, whooften substitutes mascar-pone Ihr cream in soups, too.

Cheese can raise the baron almost any potato dish.Just ask Steve Barone, thereigning champion and co-founder of the Minneapolis-based Mashed PotatoWrestling Federation. Hisfavorite dish inspired his pitname, Steve-O Gratin.

"Ijust love cheese and Ilove potatoes and when


they're togethe,; it's thebest." Barone said.

He makes his au gratinpotatoes with Yukon Goldpotatoes.

Since he captured his ti-tie last August at the "ClarkPotato Days" in Clark, S.D.

nd at "Potato Days" inBarnesville, Mina. - thetwo biggest potato festivalsin the country - Barone'sbeen filming instructionalexercise videos that featurehim lifting 20-pound bugs ofl)otatoes. His workoutscounter the darker side ofhis potato obsession: "Ifthere are five pound of augratin in front of me, itwon't last long," he said.

Mortgage raies continued to ride the seesaw this week, down015C week and up the next. This time, it was their turn to go up.The benchmark 30-year fixed-rate mortgage rose 7 basis points,

to 6.03 percent, according to the Bankrate.com national surveyof large lenders. A basis point is one-hundredth of 1 percentagepoint. The mortgages in this week's survey had an average totalof O.3t discount and origination points. One year ago, themortgage index was 6.29 percent; four weeks ago, it was 5.98percent.The benchmark 15-year fixed-rate mortgage rose 9 basis points,

to 5.65 percent. The benchmark 5/1 adjustable-rate mortgagewent the other way, falling 10 basis points, to 5.85 percent. Thebenchmark jumbo 30-year fixed, for bigger mortgages, fell 6basis points, to 7.32 percent.

Rates went up along with the news that inflation is still verymuch with us, notwithstanding the strong probability that theeconomy is in recession. On Tuesday, the Labor Departmentannounced that overall wholesale prices rose 1.1 percent inMarch - a rate that's about six times faster than the FederalReserve's comfort level. The core wholesale inflation rate -what you get when you ignore food and fuel prices - rose 0.2percent.

Those were wholesale prices, and wholesale inflation isn'talways passed on immediately to the consumer at the retail cashregister. On Wednesday, the Labor Department said that overallretail prices rose 0.3 percent in March, and that core retail priceswent up 0.2 percent.The two reports presented a mixed inflation picture, leading to

moderately higher mortgage rates.

JENDERS, TO HAVE YOUR RAT; CÀLLBANKRATE.COM 'SALÉS

Rates rise, and then there are those fees By Holden Lewis Bankrate.comFees for riskier loans

There's something else that has a more direct effect on themortgage rate that you pay: risk-based pricing. Mortgagefinancing giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mae have been addingfees that make anything but the nsost plain-vanilla home loanmore expensive. This is an important point to you, a reader oftisis article, because the above-rate averages are for plain-vanillaloans.

You can get tIse best combination of rate and fees if you'reborrowing less than $417,000 to buy a single-family house as aprimary residence, and you make enough money to easily affordthe house paynients on a 30-year, fixed-rate loan, and yod madea down payment of at least 20 percent, and the house is in aneighborhood where prices are not falling, and you have good toexcellent credit, with a score of 740 or above.

Does that describe you? Probably not. That means you aresubject to risk-based pricing in tise form of fees that Freddie Macand Fannie Mae charge to lenders. The lenders then pass thesecosts along to consumers, either as fees or higher rates or acombination.

Loan officers and brokers can't quote a rate accurately unlessthey know details: your credit score; whether you're buying orrefinancing; the loan-to-value ratio, or LTV; the ratio of yourincome to your total debt payments; whether you'll live in it orrent it outRate shoppers need more info

"1 really think this is a topic that people should be aware of whenshopping for a loan' says Jim Sahnger, mortgagé consultant forPalm Beach Financial Network in Stuart, Fia. "You cannot be a

rate shopper and simply ask, 'What is your rate?' without settingyourself up for failure and 1501 knOW and disclose what yourcredit scores are. Without more information, prospectiveborrowers could be setting themselves up to appear they arebeing bait-and-switched from being quoted rates for 'prinse'borrowers vs. those with scores below 740 and LTVs above 60percent."

Let's say you lsave a credit score of 715 and you're buying ahouse with a down payment of 10 percent (or even "only" 39percent). Fannie and Freddie sock your lender (and, therefore,you) with a fee of one-half of 1 percent. On a $200,000 loan,that's a $1,000 charge. Don't want to pay a kilobuck in casIs atclosing? Your lender likely will waive the fee and raise the rateby one-eighth of a percent.

'Postsettlement delivery fees'These charges, called "loan level pricing adjustments" by Fannieand "postsettlement delivery fees" by Freddie, can add up.Getting a 40-year loan? Add a fee of I percent of the loanamount (or about a quarter of a percent to the rate). Doing acash-out refinance to get a loan of 90 percent of the home'svalue? Add a fee of tlsrcc-cighths of a percent of the loan amountif your credit score is 740 or above, and a bigger fee if the scoreis lower than that.

"The piling-on of risk-based fees makes now a good time toconsider buying or remortgaging a home' Mobium Mortgageloan officer Dan Green writes in his blog,TheMortgageReports.com. "Changes to pricing are madewithout advance notice and we all get taken by surprise. Alwaysto our detriment."
