Left Behind
To leave or not to leave clippings, that is the question. Certainly, leaving clippings is better from an agronomic and environmental perspective. Nutrients are tied up in clippings and when you return them to the turf, you also return nutrients. By returning clippings, you also avoid the problem of what to do with them. Bagging and sending them off to landfills only adds to landfill capacity problems.
However, returning clippings is not always an option. Your site or customers may demand that clippings be collected. Also clipping recycling may not be practical if you have extended the frequency too long due to rain, wet soil or other circumstances. You know best on whether "don't bag it" is an option. To help you in your decision to leave or remove clippings, consider the benefits of leaving them behind.
Normal, healthy turfgrass growth produces excess foliage that, obviously, must be removed by mowing it — especially as a way to maintain a neat, groomed appearance. The basic rule of thumb for mowing is that you should remove no more than one-third of the leaf blade in a single mowing. Removing more than that could result in damage to the turfgrass and unsightly scalping. As a result, the turfgrass does not produce sufficient photosynthate for root growth and over the long term, it will yield a shallow-rooted turfgrass that does not withstand stresses in nutrition or those caused by lack of moisture or from insects, diseases and weeds. One of the symptoms of an improperly mowed turfgrass is the occurrence of weeds. Proper mowing contributes to a complete coverage of the soil by turfgrass and the exclusion of weeds. Thus, proper mowing is essential for the maintenance of a quality turfgrass.
The optimum mowing height is determined by the turfgrass growth habit and leaf width. You can usually mow a turfgrass that spreads horizontally shorter than an up-right-growing, bunch-type turfgrass. Grasses with narrow blades usually require you to mow them closer than grasses with wider blades. Bermudagrass can be mowed very short because of the numerous narrow leaf blades and the low growing habit. Bahiagrass should be mowed much higher to produce a quality lawn because of its open, up-right growth habit. Suggested mowing heights for a number of turfgrasses are presented in Table 1, right.
Turfgrasses mowed at other-than-optimum heights require special management and more of your attention. Mowing below the optimum height requires production of enough leaf blades to keep the turfgrass dense and healthy. To accomplish this, you will need to apply more fertilizer and water to stimulate growth. Mowing too low can result in a low-density turfgrass with increased weed problems and faster thatch accumulation. Mowing turf too low probably damages more lawns than any other one management practice.
All of this mowing creates clippings, which you must manage one way or another. If the turfgrass you are managing has not been mowed on the regular, recommended cycle, excess clippings may have accumulated, resulting in an unsightly turfgrass surface. However, if you mow turfgrass in a timely and proper manner (at the suggested mowing height), excessive clippings should not accumulate.
It's an age-old question: What should I do with my clippings? Should I leave them? Should I collect and dispose of them? Is one better than the other? Obviously, whether you leave or collect the clipping may be decided for you, if your client insists on removal of clipping. However, if the choice is left to you, carefully weigh the pros and cons or removing the clippings or letting them lie. There are a number of issues that you should address before deciding how to manage your clippings, such as turfgrass species, return of nutrients and thatch accumulation. The advantage to collecting clippings: a neat, manicured finished product. The disadvantage: more time and disposal management. (For more information on managing clippings, see "Collecting Clippings," right.) If you decide to leave the clippings, the disadvantage is that you must mow properly, which may take more scheduling on your part. There is an obvious advantage to not collecting clippings — you save time and avoid creating landfill problems — but there are also some less obvious issues of leaving the clippings on the surface.
Decomposition of clippings related to turfgrass species. Research has shown that the leaf blades of commonly used turfgrasses differ in their lignin and cellulose content. These two nitrogen (N)-rich compounds make up the structural components of the turfgrass and their relative presence correlates with the decomposition rate of the clippings of the individual turfgrass. The cellulose and lignin contents of the thatch layer of selected turfgrass species are shown in Table 2, page 14.
Turfgrasses with high lignin content tend to degrade slower than ones with low lignin content under the same environmental conditions. The data suggest that centipedegrass would degrade slower than other turfgrasses because of its high lignin content. Fortunately, under most management regimes, centipedegrass does not grow as rapidly as, say, bermudagrass, thus does not generally accumulate excessive quantities of clippings. Thatch of St. Augustinegrass contains less lignin than centipedegrass and bermudagrass, thus it decomposes more rapidly. The cool-season turfgrass Kentucky bluegrass contains very little lignin and would be expected to decompose rapidly. In most cases, however, Kentucky bluegrass is grown in cooler climates where decomposition rates are much slower. Therefore, climate may have a greater influence on clipping decomposition than the actual lignin content of the thatch.
Turfgrass tissue N content and N released: One of the major potential advantages of returning the clippings is the recycling of the N that exists in the turfgrass tissue. Nitrogen content of the turfgrass tissue varies with the quantity of N you've applied and the growth rate of the turfgrass. Typical values for tissue N content and growth rate of the individual selected turfgrass species are shown in Table 3, page 14.
Assuming that all of the N in the returned tissue is released and that the active growth period for the individual turfgrasses is 180 days, the potential total N released from the returned clippings could be substantial. At least one third of the recommended N fertilization rate for a highly maintained turfgrass could be obtained from the decomposition of the returned clippings.
In Central Florida, the recommended N fertilization rate for St. Augustinegrass is 2 to 5 pounds N/1,000 square feet/year. By returning the clippings, you could potentially supply almost 2 pounds of that recommended N on an annual basis, saving you time and money. Tissue N is released slowly over time with very little potential for leaching losses, as opposed to the application of soluble N sources that may contribute to flushes in growth and N leaching in to the ground water, should heavy rainfall or excessive irrigation occur shortly after application. One major additional advantage to using recycled N in the tissue is that it is free. It does not cost extra to return the clippings. In fact you save money indirectly through the reduction in labor for clipping collection and in landfill requirements.
In a three-year study involving bermudagrass, clipping disposition was studied as it related to the growth, N content of the tissue and the visual quality of the turfgrass. These results are presented in Table 4, page 14. The results of this long-term study suggest that the growth rate, N content and overall visual quality of a turfgrass can be improved by the return of the clippings.
Return of nutrients other than N. Recycled turfgrass tissue contains nutrients other than N, which may be beneficial to the overall health and quality of the turfgrass. In the same three-year study on bermudagrass (Table 4, page 14), the influence of clippings disposition of potassium (K) and magnesium (Mg) response was also evaluated. When clippings were returned, no response to applied K and Mg was observed; however, when clippings were removed, a significant response to applied K and Mg was observed (see Table 5, above). Sandy soils typically are low to marginal in exchangeable K and Mg. When clippings are removed, there is a continual depletion of essential nutrients. Turfgrasses growing on soils of low nutrient status may ultimately suffer a deficiency if the clippings are not returned or the marginal nutrients are not adequately supplied through fertilization.
In this study, when bermudagrass clippings were returned, there was no response to applied K and Mg; however, when clippings were removed, application of K and Mg fertilizers increased growth significantly. Recycling of the nutrients in the clippings eliminated the need for additional K and Mg fertilization, thus producing a higher quality turfgrass without the added expense of supplying these additional nutrients through fertilization.
Thatch. Probably your biggest concern relative to returning clippings is the enhancement of thatch accumulation. The general assumption is that if you return clippings, thatch will accumulate and cause problems with turfgrass growth, water relations and decreased overall turfgrass quality.
The good news is that in the South, where warm climates prevail, research has shown that returning the clippings does not result in a significant increase in thatch (see Table 6, page 17). Under warm climatic conditions microbial activity is elevated and the clippings decompose rapidly, releasing the needed essential nutrients of N, K and Mg, as mentioned above. However, research in more temperate, cooler regions of the country has shown that this may not be the case. In one reported study in the Midwest, return of Kentucky bluegrass clippings did enhance thatch accumulation. But in general, in the warmer South and Southeast, return of clippings has not shown to increase the quantity of thatch accumulated in turfgrass.
Even though turfgrasses do vary in their composition and apparent decomposition rates, returned clippings from the turfgrasses do decompose in a timely manner and release nutrients. These released nutrients of N, K and Mg can significantly enhance turfgrass growth and quality, saving expenditures for additional fertilization as well as reducing the requirements for landfill space. Returning the clippings, especially in warm climates, does not increase thatch accumulation. If you mow turfgrass properly in a timely manner so that excessive accumulation of unsightly clippings on the turfgrass surface does not occur, there appear to be no disadvantages to returning the clippings, only advantages.

Walker Mfg., a Colorado-based mower manufacturer, commissioned an independent research firm to conduct a survey to determine how Walker owners and operators handle grass clippings and debris. It's purpose: to identify methods of handling debris, modes of transporting debris, where it's taken, how far and how much, if anything, paid for dumping it.
Nearly 400 owners and operators responded, and these are a few of the results:
Nearly 90 percent of all contractors said they pick up debris with their mowers, compared to 2/3 of the other respondents.
Midwest contractors are more likely to side-discharge clippings than contractors in other parts of the country.
South Atlantic contractors find mulching to be more effective.
More than 50 percent of all respondents indicated that the number of properties at which they pick up clippings has stayed the same over the last two years. For those who reported a trend, picking up clippings increased by nearly 3:1 over mulching or discharging.
Clippings and leaves are likely to end up in one of two places, according to respondents: either in an on-site or off-site compost facility.
While more than 50 percent reported they are charged for taking debris to an off-site location, less than 20 percent reported disposing of debris in landfills.

The blue areas in the following diagrams represent the number of hits you would receive from doing a search using the Boolean operators AND or OR in the same database. Using OR retrieves a large number of items:Citation: These identify published information so others who read your work can verify facts or research the same information more easily. Citations often include the author, article title, journal title, page numbers and publication information. Citations of Web documents also include a URL and the day the information was accessed.
Using AND narrows the number of items returned:
Citation Styles: MLA (Modern Language Association) and APA (American
Psychological Association)
are the most commonly used citation styles. Others include
Chicago, Bluebook, and Turabian. Some publishers and
professional organizations have their own unique styles.

production, sale, or distribution of a creative work for a certain length of
Database: A database provides a way of organizing information so that you can easily find what you are looking for. A journal index is the most common type of database in an academic library. Each article citation in a database is composed of individual pieces of information called fields.
Fields: Fields include basic citation information, such as the author, title,
etc. Some databases include fields for subject headings, abstracts, and other information, as well. When you do a search in a database, you may search in a specific a field. For example, when you use an author search you are searching only the author field. Keyword searches give you the option of searching all the fields at the same time.
Full text: The complete electronic text of an article is called the full text. Some databases, like Wilson Select and ABI/INFORM, provide entire articles online.
Hyperlinking: This allows computer users to connect to other sources of
information in a non-sequential way through links.
Index: an alphabetical listing of titles, authors, and subjects along with the
citation information (name of journal, date of publication, page numbers, etc.) of the publication in which the item appeared. Periodical databases are online versions of print indexes.
Internet: The Internet is a global network, connecting many smaller individual networks. For example, a computer in your room is connected to another computer on campus. All the departments on campus are then connected to a larger network in your state. The statewide network is connected to regional, national and international networks.
Keyword: A significant or memorable word or term in the title, abstract, or text of item in an index.
Library of Congress Subject Headings: Many academic libraries use the Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH) which are divided into 21 branches of knowledge represented by letters:
Microforms: These are images from materials such as newspapers that are shrunk down and stored on film in rolls (microfilm) or sheets (microfiche) or on microcards. Microforms must be viewed on machines that enlarge the images.
A - General works
B - Philosophy
C - Auxiliary sciences of history
D - History (general)

L - Education
M - Music
N - Visual arts
P - Language and literature
Q - Science
R - Medicine
S - Agriculture
T - Technology
U - Military science
V - Naval science
Z - Bibliography; library science
Each branch is divided into more specific topics represented by combinations of letters and numbers. For example, the book Teleworking has the following call number:
H - Social sciences and business
HD - Economic history and conditions
2331 - 2336 - Household Industry
2336.3 - Telecommuting

Peer reviewed: This refers to journal articles or other scholarly works that have been evaluated by a group of experts in the author's field. Reviewers make sure scholarly works meet the accepted standards of that field. Also known as "refereed."
Periodicals: Publications which are issued at least twice a year, including
journals, magazines, and newspapers are called periodicals. Current periodicals are those which have recently arrived. In Ablah Library they are on open shelves on the main floor. Bound periodicals are back issues that are shelved in the General Book Stacks with the regular collection.
Plagiarism: Presenting another author's word and ideas as your own. There are many ways to plagiarize, purposefully or accidentally. One example is using another author's exact words without using quotation marks or giving credit to the source. However, even if you don't use an author's exact words, you are still plagiarizing if you don't provide citations.

Floater Rearends - Choosing The Right Rearend
We Get Under Project Bomber To Install A New Rearend
Decisions, Decisions In the planning of Project Bomber, Frank Kimmel and I both knew we had to have a floater rearend. After all, this car is being built to run in Frank's Street Stock Nationals and the rules require floater rearends largely because the series races on tracks like Kentucky Speedway, Bristol Motor Speedway, Rockingham Raceway Park, and other high-banked, high-speed asphalt tracks.
However, we would have opted for one anyway regardless of the rules. You see, floaters have both axles splined on both ends and a hub assembly with two outer bearings on it which is retained with a hub nut. The design of the floater keeps everything together in the event that you break an axle. That's a huge safety benefit. In a non-floater rearend if you break an an axle, you could lose the wheel, which can be dangerous. Imagine a wheel bouncing down the track with the hub assembly and axle still attached. That situation has the potential to end very poorly.
For Project Bomber, we settled on a 9-inch Floater from Quick Performance, the Ames, Iowa-based race car rearend manufacturer. About 30 percent of the racers who run Frank's series have Quick Performance rearends in their cars as well.
In the process of ordering up the rear we took some time out with Quick's Doug DeMoss to get a little more information to help you out when making your own rearend selection.
Spool Vs. Locker It's a pretty common question, which should I use a spool or a locker? To answer that question, however, you're going to need a little bit of knowledge and your track's rulebook. A spool locks the wheels, so that they always turn at the same speed, whereas a locker locks only when under power and unlocks when you lift the throttle going into the corner. As you might imagine the locker is the preferred rearend on a lower banked short track. "You'll want a locker if you're going from 130 on the straights to 45 entering the corners," says DeMoss.
In Frank's series, however, the cars run in a more steady state, in other words there isn't that tremendous rpm swing and you can almost flat foot it around the track. Many of the tracks have gentle radius curves with substantial banking. That means that spool is the preferred rear.
"If you don't turn the wheel hardly at all at your track and you can flat foot it all the way around, you'll want to go with a full spool, mini spool, or even an open carrier," says DeMoss. For comparison's sake a full spool will give you weight reduction while the open carrier gives a side to side benefit of not scrubbing horsepower off in the corners. A mini is somewhere in the middle.
For Kimmel's series, DeMoss goes on to say, "I'd probably just run an open carrier, you run those tracks in steady state so you're not going to break the tires loose." DeMoss has shipped a pretty even mix of rearends to FKSSN competitors-some mini, some full, some open carriers.
Another common question the guys at Quick Performance get is 'are gun-drilled axles worth the added expense?'
"Generally, gun-drilled axles are twice the price of a regular set with about a 2-pound weight savings," says DeMoss. "If you want to get technical about it, that mass reduction isn't going to affect the moment of inertia of the turning axles because the weight removed is so close to the center of the spinning mass. Again, because the Kimmel Street Stocks are running in such steady state, gun-drilled axles are not as critical. Lightening that part is not as big a benefit and you usually won't see anything in your lap times. In fact, I don't think any of our customers who run Frank's series have ordered gun-drilled axles."
DeMoss says that polished gears fall into the same category as gun-drilled axles if you're racing in a Street Stock/Sportsman level. The coefficient of friction is less than 10 percent, and that 10 percent isn't going to show up in your lap times, especially if you race on dirt. "We haven't seen polished gears improve the service life, either," DeMoss says.
However, the key to getting the most out of standard gears is to take the time to break them in properly. Quick Performance recommends two to three heat cycles in the rearend before racing. Understanding that takes time-time a lot of Saturday night racers don't have-DeMoss says he jacks the car up and runs it in forward and reverse with it sitting on jackstands, and then drives it around in the pits as much as possible.
Getting Cool Typically a rearend will run anywhere between 200 and 300 degrees, but the lower your gear ratio, the higher that temperature is going to climb. For example, a 7.00 gear is going to run a lot hotter than a 3.50 gear, which would usually run around the 250-degree range. If you run anything that's over 50 laps, you should seriously consider running a rearend cooler, especially if those 50-plus laps are on asphalt. However, in Frank's series the horsepower rating isn't high enough to warrant a rearend cooler. Adding a rearend cooler will, without a doubt, add cost that would be better spent elsewhere.
There is, however, something you can do to help keep your rear's temperature down without the added cost of a cooler, starting with the tube seals. "If you run them, don't," says DeMoss. "Tube seals prevent the oil from getting into the axle tubes which would actually help cool the oil, by keeping the oil out of the tubes the oil never cools and the rear's temperature can actually increase." DeMoss says just put four quarts of oil in there and go. By the way, go with mineral-based oil. According to DeMoss, the added cost of synthetics isn't worth it for this application, plus the mineral-based oils absorb heat better.
One Last Choice Running a lightened ring gear can be equivalent to taking 10 to 30 pounds off the car, because it's rotating weight. Before you grab that gear and head over to the lathe, think again, you should leave ring gear lightening to the pros. DeMoss says, "There's no reduction in strength with a lightened ring gear as it comes out of the box. There is a reduction, however, when people lighten it themselves because they remove too much material and weaken the gear. There's a certain amount of material that can be removed before the safety factor comes into play, and we don't exceed that." The amount of material you can remove is directly related to the ratio of the gear. The lower the ratio, the more weight that can be safely taken off because the gear is thicker. Still, the safest way to gain the advantage is to leave the lightening to the pros.
Down To Business When it comes time to order your new rearend it couldn't be simpler than picking up the phone. DeMoss and the boys at Quick Performance have been racing and building rearends for a long time. As such they have compiled a body of information from mounting locations, to pinion angles, to major sanction rules.
Basically before you get them on the phone you should know the make, model, and year of the frame of your race car, whether you're racing on asphalt or dirt, and whether you want a floater- or flange-style rear. In addition, you'll need to know the gear ratio and wheel width you want to run as well as whether you want a 28- or 31-spline axle. Take note here-a 31-spline axle is stronger and there is no reason not to go with that option unless you have 28 centers that you can't afford to or don't want to change
The basic package from Quick Performance that you see here includes all of the brackets in the correct location for your application, axles, hubs, bearings, studs, rotors, and more. Even the pinion angles are pre-determined by Quick, all for $950 and for an extra $100 Quick Performance will even weld on caliper brackets and provide you with calipers and pads. Overall, it's better for circle track racing. This package allows almost any backyard shade tree mechanic with basic tool skills to put current technology into his or her Street Stock.
Installation There are some key practices that need to be observed in order to guarantee the performance of your new rearend. When installing, use the factory mounting bolts so long as they're in good condition. If not, and any bolts need to be replaced, grade-8 should always be used. Always use nylock nuts and don't overtighten anything. DeMoss says you should take all of the slack out and then go one more quarter turn. "You'd be surprised how many failures we see because of over-tightening." For example, your U-joint can go out 10 laps into a race because you crushed its cap by over-tightening it. The same thing can happen with the bushings if you crank down the nuts on the brackets too much. Bottom line is to use DeMoss' "no slack plus quarter turn" rule and you'll be fine.
Another important step in the installation of your new rearend is attaching equal length chains from the rearend housing to the framerails. The chains should be equidistant apart on either side of the rear and bolted in place using, what else, but grade-8 bolts. When you jack the car up, the chains will prevent your springs from falling out of the spring buckets, as well as keeping your brake lines from snapping. It's critical, however, to measure the length of the chains, ensuring that they're short enough to prevent the driveshaft from contacting the driveshaft loop. If that happens, all of the weight of your rearend will be supported by only your driveshaft and it will bend.
You also have to be diligent about making sure the length is adjusted correctly. "I've seen guys at the ARCA level bend driveshafts because their chain lengths weren't properly adjusted, that can be an expensive mistake for anyone because your driveshaft is now junk," says Frank Kimmel.
Once the rearend is in place, you should thoroughly check all the mounting points and anywhere you tightened a nut or bolt ensuring that there's no suspension binding.
Wrapping It Up Now that the hard part is done, there are a couple of items we'll pay particular attention to once the car is on the track and racing on a weekly basis. These simple maintenance tips should be followed by anybody racing a Street Stock-level class where the horsepower isn't outrageous. Inspect your rearend once a month, or after every four races, if you don't hit the track weekly. While you're inspecting the rear, go ahead and change the rearend oil at the same time. Again, Quick Performance always recommends a mineral-based oil over synthetic, largely because of the cost-benefit ratio. The additional money spent on synthetics can be put to better use elsewhere in a Street Stock-level car. Finally, make sure you have all of your shocks dyno'd before you install them, but only if you're interested in going after that big trophy at the end of the season.
Follow those three tips and your new floater will give you years of trouble-free racing.

Police were back at the Bristol, Conn., home of the former New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez's uncle Friday evening, investigating the killing of semi-pro football player Odin Lloyd.
Hernandez has been charged with murder in the case, while another suspect was arraigned Friday and a third arrested.
Friday evening, an SUV was towed from the home, the same address where suspect Ernest Wallace, who was arrested Friday in Florida, had been staying.
U.S. & World
The day's top national and international news.
Wallace, 41, turned himself into police in Miramar, Fla., without incident at 1:22 p.m., police said, after he said he saw his name in news reports and knew there was a warrant for his arrest.
His attorney faxed in a letter to police saying he was invoking his right to counsel, said Officer Maria Strickland. WHDH reported that Wallace was then being turned over to Massachusetts State Police.
He is currently in the custody of law enforcement authorities in Miramar, FL and will face charges in Massachusetts upon his transfer to the Commonwealth.
Two other people have already been arrested in the case, including Hernandez, who has been charged with murder.
The other suspect, Carlos Ortiz, 27, also of Bristol, was arraigned in a Massachusetts courtroom Friday.
Ortiz was charged in Connecticut as a fugitive from justice on Wednesday and appeared in Superior Court in Bristol, where he waived extradition to Massachusetts, according to the State's Attorney for the Judicial District of New Britain.
He was turned over to Massachusetts authorities at 11:20 a.m. Friday and was driven to the North Attleboro, Mass., police station where he was processed. He was arraigned in Attleboro court a short time later.
Ortiz has been charged with carrying a firearm without a license. He is currently being held without bail.
Outside court in Bristol, Ortiz's friends said he would not be involved in anything bad, and his cousin called the arrest a shock.
After the arraignment, District Attorney Sutter said that he believes that the three people in the silver Nissan Altima when Odin Lloyd entered it, are in custody.
Wallace's capture Friday came a day after authorities had first issued an alert and wanted poster for him, saying he was considered armed and dangerous. On Friday, police issued a new photo and wanted posted that mentioned special attention to Connecticut, Georgia, Florida and Massachusetts.
Minutes later, Massachusetts State Police said via Twitter that he had been captured in Miramar.
Officer Strickland said that police know Wallace has a local address in Florida. Wallace also told police that he saw himself on the news and turned himself in because he didn't know what was going on, Strickland said. He saw his name and he knew he had a warrant, she said.
Wallace was wanted for accessory after the fact to the murder of Lloyd, a semi-professional football, near Hernandez's Massachusetts home, according to police.
Prosecutors said Lloyd died in an execution-style killing.
Hernandez was arrested on Wednesday, and the Patriots released him that day. On Thursday, he was denied bail and his lawyer said he wants to clear his name.
On Friday, the New England Patriots also announced a free jersey exchange for #81 Hernandez shirts.
Sources told NBC News that he was being investigated in another case — the drive-by killings of two men in Boston last year. The men were shot to death in an SUV after leaving a nightclub.
North Attleboro police confirm that Wallace's last-known address is 114 Lake Ave. in Bristol, a house listed as the home of Hernandez's uncle. Police searched the home on Wednesday.
State police had been looking for a silver or gray 2012 Chrysler 300 with Rhode Island license plates 451-375 that Wallace was seen driving.
North Attleboro police said the car was found, but there was no sign of Wallace. Police have not said where the car was found.

Dermatophytosis (patient information)
Dermatophytosis On the Web
For the WikiDoc page for this topic, click here
Editor-In-Chief: C. Michael Gibson, M.S., M.D. [1]
Ringworm is a skin infection due to a fungus. Often, there are several patches of ringworm on your skin at once.
What are the symptoms of Dermatophytosis?
Symptoms of ringworm include:
- Itchy, red, raised, scaly patches that may blister and ooze.
- The patches tend to have sharply-defined edges.
- Red patches are often redder around the outside with normal skin tone in the center. This may look like a ring.
If ringworm affects your hair, you will have bald patches.
If ringworm affects your nails, they will become discolored, thick, and even crumble.
What causes Dermatophytosis?
Ringworm is common, especially among children. However, it may affect people of all ages. It is caused by a fungus, not a worm like the name suggests.
Many bacteria and fungi live on your body. Some of these are useful, while others can cause infections. Ringworm occurs when a type of fungus called tinea grows and multiplies on your skin.
Ringworm can affect the skin on your:
- Beard -- tinea barbae
- Body -- tinea corporis
- Feet -- tinea pedis (also called athlete's foot)
- Groin area -- tinea cruris (also called jock itch)
- Scalp -- tinea capitis
Ringworm can spread easily from one person to another. You can catch ringworm if you touch someone who has the infection, or if you come into contact with items contaminated by the fungus, such as combs, unwashed clothing, and shower or pool surfaces. You can also catch ringworm from pets that carry the fungus. Cats are common carriers.
The fungus that causes ringworm thrive in warm, moist areas. Ringworm is more likely when you are often wet (such as from sweating) and from minor injuries to your skin, scalp, or nails.
Most of the time, your health care provider can diagnose ringworm by looking at your skin. The fungus may glow when your skin is examined with a blue light (called a Wood's lamp) in a dark room.
Tests to confirm the diagnosis may include:
- KOH exam
- Skin biopsy
- Skin culture
When to seek urgent medical care?
Call your doctor right away if you have any signs of a bacterial infection, which can result from scratching. These signs include swelling, warm skin, sudden worsening in redness of the patches, red streaking, pus, drainage, and fever.
Call your doctor if:
- You have ringworm on your scalp or beard
- Your skin does not improve after 4 weeks of self-care
- The rash spreads and you have diabetes or a weakened immune system due to disease or certain medications
Treatment options
To care for ringworm:
- Keep your skin clean and dry.
- Apply over-the-counter antifungal or drying powders, lotions, or creams that contain miconazole, clotrimazole, or similar ingredients.
- Don't wear clothing that rubs against and irritates the area.
- Wash sheets and nightclothes every day while you are infected.
Your health care provider may prescribe pills to treat the fungus if you have:
- A severe case of ringworm
- Ringworm that keeps coming back or that lasts for a long time
- Ringworm in your hair
You may need medicines such as ketoconazole, which are stronger than over-the-counter products. You may also need antibiotics to treat skin infections from strep or staph that are caused by scratching the area.
Infected pets also should be treated.
Where to find medical care for Dermatophytosis?
Directions to Hospitals Treating Condition
To prevent ringworm:
- Keep your skin and feet clean and dry.
- Shampoo regularly, especially after haircuts.
- Do not share clothing, towels, hairbrushes, combs, headgear, or other personal care items. Such items should be thoroughly cleaned and dried after use.
- Wear sandals or shoes at gyms, lockers, and pools.
- Avoid touching pets with bald spots.
What to expect (Outlook/Prognosis)?
Skin medicine usually treats ringworm within 4 weeks. If your ringworm infection is severe or it does not respond well to self-care, it will usually respond quickly to antifungal pills.

St. Regis penthouse on sale for $70 million
If it goes for even half its asking price, the St. Regis penthouse will set residential record
Real estate mogul Victor MacFarlane has placed his huge St. Regis penthouse on the sales block for $70 million, a figure that would obliterate the previous record price tag for a San Francisco residence.
If there's a buyer, that is.
The asking price for the completed condo, the interior of which is still under construction, works out to $3,500 for each of the roughly 20,000 square feet. MacFarlane bought the property, originally three unfinished units on the top two floors, for about $30 million in late 2005. At the time, it was the highest total ever paid for a condo property - if you consider it a single purchase - and nearly the largest amount ever spent on a San Francisco home.
The property at the St. Regis Residences on Third Street has been built out just to the point where a new owner can select finishes and decor. There are no fixtures, furniture or appliances, mostly just Sheetrock, exposed steel and concrete. Even so, the configuration, size, heights and views are striking.
The floor-to-ceiling glass curtain walls and four terraces, including one that is more than 2,000 square feet, offer a 360-degree panorama of San Francisco and the surrounding bay and region. The brushed aluminium frame windows are 22 feet high in the immense corner living room. The foyer will include a winding staircase and two-story waterfall.
There are six bedrooms, seven baths, four powder rooms, four fireplaces, two offices, a wine storage room, a gym with a sauna and steam room and a 13-seat cinema. The infrastructure is in place - including miles of wiring and piping - for top-of-the-line audio, video, lighting, security, shading and climate control systems.
"It's certainly the most extraordinary apartment outside of New York, and probably one of the two or three biggest homes in San Francisco," said Patrick Barber, managing broker with Sotheby's International Realty, who is representing the property. "No one will be able to buy a 20,000-square-foot residence in San Francisco again."
MBA BY THE BAY: See how an MBA could change your life with SFGATE's interactive directory of Bay Area programs.
The question remains, however, whether anyone will be willing to pay that much for one now. The high end of the real estate market has continued to far outperform the broader market through the downturn, but at this astronomical end of the market, the pool of potential buyers shrinks considerably.
"It might be a little on the high side," said Rick Goodwin, publisher of Unique Homes magazine. He said the bar for top-end luxury townhomes and condos in major urban markets is around $50 million, with the highest prices reserved for properties in resort markets such as Palm Beach and the Hamptons. The priciest known single-family residence for sale in the nation today is a $125 million property in Los Angeles neighborhood of Bel Air, he said.
Locally, a handful of homes have been priced around or above $50 million, but none has sold for near that amount. The 11,500-square-foot home at 2920 Broadway in Pacific Heights went on the market for $45 million in 2003, but ultimately closed for $20 million to $30 million, industry sources say.
The highest known price in San Francisco was the $32 million paid in late 2002 for 2845 Broadway, then an uncompleted villa. Coincidentally, it's for sale again, now at $65 million, the city's priciest official listing according Realtor.com. It's been on the market for at least the better part of a year.
Three properties over $10 million have closed this year, with a median price of $14.5 million, and sales prices in well-heeled neighborhoods and for downtown luxury high-rises keep rising.
Part of the reason is that rich buyers aren't nearly as affected by subprime loans, the inability to secure financing or often the need to take out a mortgage at all. Another is the huge creation of wealth happening throughout the world and especially in the region, said Steven Mavromihalis, a sales associate with Pacific Union GMAC Real Estate.
"There has never been a greater accumulation of wealth in a shorter period of time or smaller geographic area than in the Bay Area during the past two decades," he said. "Combine that with the facts that San Francisco is 7 by 7 (miles) and there are only a limited number of great houses, and you've got the phenomenon we're talking about."
The Ohio-born MacFarlane is the chief executive officer of MacFarlane Partners, a San Francisco real estate investment firm with $11 billion under management. He has been managing money for the California Public Employees Retirement System since the early 1990s.
The company's Bay Area projects include the Uptown apartment development in Oakland, the Bay Street Emeryville retail center and the Meridian Luxury Apartments in San Bruno. MacFarlane's highest profile buildings have been elsewhere, including the Time Warner Center in New York City. He's also the co-owner of the D.C. United soccer team in the nation's capital.
Despite his strong track record, MacFarlane has not been immune to the recent woes of the real estate industry.
A residential land deal involving thousands of undeveloped acres north of Los Angeles has dropped significantly in value since it was completed in 2007 and received a default notice on $1 billion in debt. MacFarlane Partners recently laid off 15 employees.
The decision to sell the San Francisco penthouse was based on lifestyle, not business factors, said Julie Chase, MacFarlane's publicist.
"The reality is, he's traveling around so much, having all these properties isn't making any sense," she said.
MacFarlane primarily resides in Hillsborough.
Orlando Diaz-Arcuy and Building Momentum Inc. designed the interior. If the ultimate buyer decides to take it as is, instead of completing their plans, a lower price would be negotiated, Sotheby's Barber said.

President Barack Obama, flanked by family members of shooting victims, spoke from the White House Wednesday in a renewed effort from the bully pulpit to push Congress on gun control.
On the 100th day since the Newtown school shooting that killed 20 children and six teachers, Obama called on Congress to pass measures on universal background checks and penalties for those who buy guns for those who can't legally purchase firearms themselves. He reasoned a majority of Americans favored the gun control policies, despite opposition from Republican lawmakers in Congress.
"There are some powerful voices on the other side that are interested in running out the clock or changing the subject or drowning out the majority of the American people to prevent any of these reforms from happening at all. They're doing everything they can to make all our progress collapse under the weight of fear and frustration, or their assumption is that people will just forget about it," Obama said.
Obama urged Americans to speak with their representatives about their support for passing gun legislation, and to not forget the children of Sandy Hook.
"Less than 100 days ago that happened, and the entire country was shocked. And the entire country pledged we would do something about it and that this time would be different. Shame on us if we've forgotten," Obama said, as lips quivered from the mothers standing behind him. "I haven't forgotten those kids. Shame on us if we've forgotten."
Following the speech, Rep. Steve Stockman of Friendswood tweeted that Obama's call to action had fallen on deaf ears.
America responds to Obama's #DemandAction campaign youtube.com/watch?v=K8E_zM…
— Rep. Steve Stockman (@SteveWorks4You) March 28, 2013
Sen. Ted Cruz called out the president for his continual use of the Sandy Hook shootings to push Congress to pass the legislation. "It is saddening to see the President today, once again, try to take advantage of this tragic murder to promote an agenda that will do nothing to stop violent crime, but will undermine the constitutional rights of all law-abiding Americans," Cruz said in a statement.
The freshman senator reaffirmed his commitment to using "any procedural means necessary" to block gun legislation that would limit second amendment rights. Cruz has threatened that he along with Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., and Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, would filibuster any gun control proposals that would further "restrict" the Second Amendment. Sen. Jim Inhofe, R-Okla., and Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., most recently joined the group.
Despite the Republican unity, a few Texas Democrats spoke out in favor of Obama's efforts. Dallas Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson tweeted her support of the President following his speech.

Darien volleyball wins battle of unbeatens in Greenwich
Recommended Video:
DARIEN -- This wasn't a typical lopsided 3-0 victory for the Darien girls volleyball team.
In a matchup of 8-0 squads -- which had combined to lose only four games in their first 16 matches -- it was the Blue Wave emerging with win No. 9.
Darien, the perennial FCIAC preseason favorite, was well aware it was up against a very worthy opponent in host Greenwich.
"They're definitely a great team; they were undefeated too," Darien's Riley Sousa said. "We won, but definitely did not dominate the entire game. It was nice for our team to know that we can come together in all those little moments during the game."
In Game 1, Darien jumped out to a 4-3 lead and built a lead as high as 19-13, but Greenwich rallied and took its second lead at 24-23. However, Darien quickly regrouped to win the next three points and captured the game 26-24. Sousa was instrumental in the quick recovery, making a touch volley to give her team a 25-24 lead and notched an ace for the clinching point.
"We were so pumped all day just to play them because we do know that we do have the power that it takes to beat them. They were just a little bit more consistent and they kept putting power on every ball," Greenwich's Ebba Mark said. "It's a matter of keeping our energy up and that comes from everyone being on top of their game."
Darien took Game 2 by a 25-21 margin for the commanding 2-0 lead, as Kelly Kosnik recorded five of her 10 kills, and Brittany Osborn was strong at the net.
Darien built a quick 8-4 lead in Game 3, prompting Greenwich to call a timeout. The result was the Cardinals taking the next six points for a 10-8 lead. Greenwich's Jennie Cespedes' and Xanthi Katsigiannis were instrumental in sparking the Greenwich rally, and it was Darien's turn to call a timeout.
"We just had to regroup, refocus and get our energy back and be the aggressor," Kosnik said. "It's nice to win anytime, and going 3-0 is great too."
The Blue Wave then went on a 17-7 run to close out the game at 25-17, giving them a sweep of the Cardinals, a team they could very well see again in the postseason.
"I think we can beat them next time, and we're looking forward to it," Mark said. "We've just got to be a little more aggressive at the ball."
Darien 3, Greenwich 0

Wx: 51F, cloudy, windy
My husband and I have some lovely grandchildren – Well, don't all grandparents have lovely grandchildren? Aren't they all kind, intelligent and talented children? I believe so. Our young grandson Jack has learned how to address a mailing envelope, so he has been writing letters to us, and they could not be more precious to us. Jack lives in Alaska, by the way. He usually includes a drawing of an animal or people in his letters – let's see…….he drew a wolf in the last letter. I have scanned them and intend to add a little color to them and then print them out for framing. This may sound silly but when you reach my young age of 65 years old, the framed letters from grandchildren are more precious than a framed Rembrandt or Reubens.
An email isn't as personal or as creative as a letter. A letter conveys much more than pencil or ink upon the page – time, energy, thought, expense, choices of pen and paper, the artful craft of words, etc. I can't explain it, but it seems a mighty lost art. A beautiful form of communication that gets lost in the massive wave and dash of emails.
So we are gathered here today because a team of Pixel Scrapper designers got together and made a collaborative kit to share. You can also find the links to the other Collaborative teams here. There are three teams. Our group was able to come to an agreement on a color scheme and theme. Since most of our lovely designers are much younger than I, they chose a theme that I am not as familiar with as I should be – the world of gaming. In my day there was Donkey Kong and the Mario Brothers video games, but now – my goodness! They have become so popular that movies are being made about them! I saw the previews to "Assassin's Creed" just the other day. And remember "Laura Croft, Tomb Raider"? I'm sure that there are others that I am not remembering.
The most important thing to tell you is that because this is a collaboration of several designers, these items are intended only for Personal Use. Normally downloads on this blog are for open use, but due to the different designers involved, these must be classified as Personal Use, only. The individual designer TOU's are included in the downloads. I hope that you have fun putting together some scrapbook pages for your own sweet "gamers"!
The download links:
paper dolls
Let me know if you have any issues with the downloads or graphics.
Be well my friends. Hug the ones you love.

Emma Stone, the current movie fan crush of the month, stars in "Easy A," an upcoming teen comedy due out this fall, and the trailer offers both hope and concern.
"Easy A" tells the story of young Olive Penderghast, an anonymous high school student, who agrees to help out a friend by pretending to have very loud sex with him during a house party. Soon every nerd in school is lining up to pay her for similar "service."
U.S. & World
But she quickly develops a reputation as a four-star roundheel, despite still being a virgin, drawing the scorn of her school's Christian contingent who suggests she wear a scarlet A.
The format of the trailer, with Stone talking into her webcam and narrating the plot, takes a lot of the edge off the comedy, and makes the thing feel a bit cheesy. Hopefully this was a device used just for the trailer.
If this film starred almost any other young actress, we probably wouldn't give it a second look, but Stone has been so good in "Superbad," "Zombieland," and even the admittedly flawed "Paper Man," that this might actually be worthwhile.
Embiggening our hopes is a strong supporting cast, with Stanley Tucci and Patricia Clarkson playing Olive's parents, and Thomas Haden Church and Lisa Kudrow as teachers at her school.
We've had our eye on this for a while now and we're gonna follow it through to its Sept. 17 release if it kills us.

Tagged: World Bank
Dirty Dancing at the World Bank
In response to the twin shocks of the Great Depression and World War II, the allied powers decided to cooperate on a system that would hopefully prevent another catastrophic financial collapse. The plan they came up with, the Bretton Woods system, created two of the most powerful financial institutions in the world today, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank.
By convention, the IMF is headed by a European and the World Bank by an American. And since voting is by quota, not by a one vote per person system, it's relatively easy for this practice to continue. That doesn't mean the unwritten policy is always appreciated, though. For instance, the World Bank is in the process of electing a new president who is not the top choice of the African continent and most of the developing world, the constituencies most served by the Bank. If you're curious as to who this person might be, wait until about the two minute point in this video and you'll see him:[youtube http://youtu.be/4lHKJEp5e-8]
Yes, he's the former President of Dartmouth. Yes, he's a founder of Partner's in Health which has ostensibly helped many poor people in Haiti access health care. However, Mr. Jim Yong Kim is not a good dancer. He also has no background in economics despite that being somewhat germane to the subject matter. Actually, let's really simplify this. Bud Selig is more qualified to be MLB Commissioner than Kim is to be World Bank president. Man, that statement even scares me.

Iraqi officials say Mosul dam now in government control
BAGHDAD — Kurdish and Iraqi forces backed by American airstrikes took control of the Mosul Dam, Iraq's military said Monday.
The U.S. military had launched more than 20 air strikes around the area over the last several days, allowing Kurdish and Iraqi counterterrorism forces to push militants off the dam.
Militants seeded the area with roadside bombs, making progress slow. About 150 improvised explosives were found by ground forces, according to Iraq's military.
The new American strikes suggest an incremental expansion of the U.S. mission, which began more than a week ago to prevent militants from overrunning Irbil, the capital of the Kurdish region, and to save Yaziri refugees trapped on a mountain to escape the Islamic State militants.
The air campaign around the dam has allowed Kurdish forces to begin retaking territory seized by the militants, also known as the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant. The group shortened its name to the Islamic State.
President Obama sent a letter to Congress on Sunday explaining his authorization of the strikes.
"The failure of the Mosul dam could threaten the lives of large numbers of civilians, endanger U.S. personnel and facilities, including the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad, and prevent the Iraqi government from providing critical services to the Iraqi populace," Obama said in the letter.
Obama emphasized that the mission is limited in "scope and duration."
Militants seized the dam this month, gaining control over electricity distributed to much of northern Iraq and the capability to flood communities downriver.
The U.S. military used a mix of aircraft and drones in Sunday's strikes, destroying or damaging seven Humvees, two armored personnel carriers and a militant checkpoint.
The militants captured an array of U.S. military equipment from Iraqi forces in June when four divisions collapsed in Mosul after the radical forces attacked the city. The equipment gave Islamic State fighters an advantage in firepower, but they're vulnerable to attack from the air.

Harbor Point, 27 acres of mostly vacant land on the Inner Harbor, is poised for one of the most significant developments in Baltimore's history. After losing 300,000 residents and many businesses during the past 40 years, Baltimore needs to grow its corporate and middle class populations to become more financially stable. Harbor Point alone won't do that, but it can move Baltimore in that direction.
Debate has surrounded Harbor Point's proposed use of tax increment financing (TIF) to pay for its public infrastructure. Yet this debate has been full of misconceptions. Lost is the reality that the vast majority of the infrastructure we use daily was funded by local government. The street you live on, the ones that get you to work, school or shopping, the pipes that bring water into your house and waste out were all made possible by taxpayer-funded infrastructure. Historically, such work was funded by every taxpayer through local governments' general funds. The Harbor Point TIF will provide the benefits of public infrastructure but limit the payment for it to the taxpayers at Harbor Point.
One side of the debate has repeatedly referred to the TIF as tax rebate or tax abatement. While Harbor Point is eligible for tax abatement through both the Brownfields and Enterprise Zone tax credits, the proposed $107 million TIF is not a rebate or abatement of Harbor Point's annual tax liability. Rather, it is just the opposite, as it requires taxes to be paid in order to service the TIF bonds.
Others have suggested that Harbor Point will not start paying property taxes until 2023. This is impossible given that Harbor Point is currently paying property taxes of approximately $350,000 and by law has to keep paying these "base taxes" throughout the life of the TIF. The "base taxes" go to the city's general fund to support police, firefighters, schools and other basic services and are not used to repay bonds. Those payments come from taxes generated by the increase in value as a result of the development.
It should be noted that the developer and every tenant at Harbor Point will be liable for paying a "special tax" if a situation arose in which the new taxes generated by the development were not enough to make the required bond payments. All leases and sales contracts will require that tenants and owners agree to this.
Some have questioned the use of TIF to benefit what they characterize as a glitzy waterfront development for the wealthy, and why such tools are not used in other city neighborhoods. First, public infrastructure is a benefit that accrues to all citizens, whether rich, poor or middle class. Second, there are thousands of miles of taxpayer-funded infrastructure throughout Baltimore, servicing a great diversity of people. Not all of that infrastructure is in great shape, but that's a topic for another day. Further, TIFs have been used throughout the city: Frankford/Moravia, Belvedere Square, Mondawmin Mall, East Baltimore Development Inc. and Charles Village.
TIFs are more easily used in tandem with developments where public infrastructure doesn't exist and with one or few land owners involved. They are only feasible when enough incremental value can be created to produce the new tax revenue needed to repay the TIF bonds. While theoretically a TIF can be used within existing neighborhoods, say to repair infrastructure or build a new school, it is much more difficult to put together, as every land owner in the neighborhood would have to agree to subject themselves to special taxes and to guarantee repayment of the TIF bonds. Further, each of these owners would have to front their share of the costs to establish the TIF, which by law are not paid by the city.
Finally, it is important to note that Harbor Point is projected to pump $588 million of new tax revenues into Baltimore City's coffers during the 34-year life span of the TIF, a piece of information that rarely is mentioned by the detractors.
Harbor Point is a tremendous opportunity for growth that Baltimore needs to seize. It deserves to have the same public infrastructure that other neighborhoods throughout Baltimore have benefited from. The big difference is that Harbor Point's infrastructure will be paid for by Harbor Point taxpayers and not all of the taxpayers of Baltimore.
Tim Pula has a master's degree from the University of North Carolina in Urban Planning with concentrations in real estate development and land use planning. He has managed numerous development projects in Baltimore including the Bagby Building, the Stieff Silver Building, and Clipper Mill where he implemented Baltimore's third TIF. His email is firstname.lastname@example.com.

Please Re-confirm Your Number
Please Re-confirm Your
- Age: Axis Bank considers your age as one of the important parameters to calculate your eligibility of a mortgage loan. To be eligible for availing a loan from Axis Bank, one has to be of atleast 24 years of age. The maximum age for loan from Axis Bank can be 60 years for salaried and 65 years for self employed. Axis Bank eligibility calculator takes age as an input to calculate your maximum loan tenure, loan EMI and hence, your loan amount eligibility. The maximum tenure of loan that you may be eligible based on your current age will be as follows:
|Your current age
|Max tenure for salaried
|Max tenure for self employed
|25 Years
|15 Years
|15 Years
|30 Years
|15 Years
|15 Years
|40 Years
|15 Years
|15 Years
|50 Years
|10 Years
|15 Years
|60 Years
|5 Years
Axis Bank Mortgage loan eligibility based on income
- Net Income: The amount of loan you can avail is a function of your net income. Axis Bank typically applies a multiplier of up to 60 times on monthly net income of the borrower to
calculate the mortgage loan eligibility. For example, if your net monthly income is Rs. 70,000
and you take a mortgage loan of Rs. 50 lakh at 10.50% interest rate offered by bank, the
maximum loan amount that you will be eligible for (assuming you have no other EMI's to pay)
would be as follows:
Age Net Monthly Income (Rs.) 50,000 75,000 100,000 25 years 29.40 Lakh 44.10 Lakh 58.80 Lakh 30 years 29.40 Lakh 44.10 Lakh 58.80 Lakh 35 years 29.40 Lakh 44.10 Lakh 58.80 Lakh 40 years 29.40 Lakh 44.10 Lakh 58.80 Lakh 50 years 24.09 Lakh 36.13 Lakh 48.17 Lakh
You may consider repaying any loans with short tenure and high EMI in order to increase your Axis Bank loan against property eligibility.
- Nature of Employment: Axis Bank will check whether you are salaried or self employed. It also looks at your years of experience to check for job and income stability. Axis Bank requires minimum income history and job stability of more than 1 years for salaried individuals and of 5 years for self employed individuals.
Axis Bank Loan against property eligibility based on value of property
- Value of property: Axis Bank does not finance the entire property value. The maximum Loan Against Property Eligibility would depend upon the value of the
property. Suppose you intend to take a loan on a property worth Rs. 20 lakh. The amount of
loan you will be eligible for will vary with the nature of property. A residential property
worth Rs. 20 lakh will fetch the highest loan amount of Rs.
12 Lakh.
Property Type LTV Property Value Maximum Loan Amount Commercial Property 60% Rs. 20 Lakh Rs. 12 Lakh Residential Property 60% Rs. 20 Lakh Rs. 12 Lakh
- Co-applicant: In order to enhance the eligibility of a loan with Axis Bank, one can apply with a co-applicant such as a spouse or parents. This increases the total eligible income for availing a property loan and enhance the amount of eligible loans. As mentioned earlier, every bank has its own set of eligibility criteria. In case of NBFCs, customers can expect higher eligibility
- Property documents: Your property's legal documents should be satisfactory and be cleared by the legal team of Axis Bank
Axis Bank property loan eligibility based on CIBIL score
CIBIL Score: The credit history of an individual plays an important role in deciding the amount of the loan. Credit history is basically the credit report of an individual based on credit information recorded by CIBIL for all your past and current loan transactions. Based on your credit score, a bank or any other financial institution decides whether an individual is eligible for a loan or not. Regular payment on secured loans can also increase your CIBIL score. Axis Bank requires a minimum credit score of 650 to be eligible for a property loan.
There are few factors which affect your credit score and in turn impact your chances of getting of loan from Axis Bank.
Late payments – If have delayed in repaying your existing or past loans, it negatively affects your CIBIL score and reduces your chances of getting a loan from Axis Bank.
High number of unsecured loans – Always keep a balance between secured and unsecured loans. Unsecured loans are riskier and more number of unsecured loans can adversely affect your credit score.
Usage of credit limit – Credit card bills and use of credit limit shows your credit behaviour. Frequent usage or withdrawals of large amounts up to the credit card limit reflects a potential financial stress, indiscipline on your part and may adversely impact your credit score.
Multiple loan applications – If you apply for loan in multiple banks at one time, it can affect your score negatively and reduce your CIBIL score. In case of application rejection from Axis Bank, improve your credit worthiness to get a good score before putting in an application in another bank.
Axis Bank Mortgage loan eligibility based on FOIR
Axis Bank calculates FOIR (Fixed Obligation to Income Ratio) to estimate the amount of loan against property you can avail. Axis Bank will calculate the percentage of fixed obligations (Rent and EMIs) to your net monthly income. Your fixed obligations to monthly income ratio should not be more than 65% to get a mortgage loan from Axis Bank. Always calculate your eligibility with Axis Bank mortgage loan calculator to estimate your eligible loan amount before applying for a loan to reduce the chances of getting your loan application rejected.

Sir Elton John and David Furnish plan to exchange vows for a second time to celebrate the legalization of same-sex marriage in the U.K.
Same-sex marriages became legal in the U.K. on Saturday, and the stars, who are already joined in a civil partnership, want to use their high-profile position to celebrate the landmark ruling.
Furnish tells Attitude magazine, "Elton and I will marry – as a high-profile couple, we feel it is our duty to do it, to make sure that everyone knows that this is something that many gay men living in this country never dreamed would happen.
"When it was announced that gay couples were able to obtain a civil partnership, Elton and I did so on the day it came into law. As something of a showman, (Elton) is aware that whatever he says and does, people will sit up and take notice – so what better way to celebrate that historic moment in time… Elton and I both think there is a massive difference between calling someone your 'partner' and calling them your 'husband'…"
They been together for more than 20 years and became one of the first same-sex couples to enter into a civil partnership in England in 2005. They have two sons, Zachary, 3, and Elijah, 14 months.
Check out photos of other longtime celebrity couples below.
