On Tuesday 7th November, the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) guaranteed a steady supply of petroleum products nationwide to serve the nation throughout the forthcoming festive period and beyond. This commitment was made by Dr. Maikanti Baru, the Group Managing Director of the NNPC during the inauguration of the Board of Directors of the Petroleum Products Marketing Company (PPMC), a subsidiary of the NNPC. Baru encouraged the Management of the PPMC to re-strategize to ensure leaner operating costs and enable the subsidiary continuously add value to the NNPC Corporate entity. The PPMC is one of the three new companies that emerged from the old Pipelines and Products Marketing Company after the recent reorganization of the NNPC. It is mainly saddled with the responsibility of marketing petroleum products, whereas, the other two companies (the Nigerian Pipeline and Storage Company and Marine Logistics) are responsible for managing storage & distribution assets of the Corporation and execution of petroleum products haulage respectively.
The NNPC has also pledged to provide more support to indigenous companies in Nigeria's Oil and Gas Industry. Baru made this pledge while commissioning the Lagos Midstream Jetty (LMJ) at the Apapa Harbour. Baru said, "NNPC will continue to support all players in the downstream sector of the Oil and Gas industry towards efficient product supply and distribution across the Country." Baru explained that the commissioning of the jetty was in line with NNPC's corporate vision of 12 Business Focus Areas, one of which is centred on the provision of critical oil and gas infrastructure. The LMJ will allow up to 45,000 Dead Weight (DWT) vessels to berth and discharge products while easing out the congestion around the Apapa corridor. The Jetty is available for the use of all sector players, peers and competitors alike, and is expected to boost the delivery of petroleum products to terminals nationwide.
Dr. Ibe Kachikwu, the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, said Nigeria will support an extension of a deal between OPEC and non-members to cut oil supply until the end of 2018, as long as the right terms are put in place. OPEC, along with Russia and 9 other producers agreed to cut oil output by about 1.8 million barrels per day (bpd) until March 2018 in an attempt to ease a global glut. In the nation's quest to rebuild oil output, Kachikwu urged Shell and Eni to continue with the development of the much -disputed Oil Prospecting License (OPL) 245. Kachikwu also said the government has called for early talks to renew oil licenses held by Shell, Total and others. Licences for several key fields expire in two years and oil firms are typically reluctant to make big investments without longterm assurances. Kachikwu said although negotiations – to be handled by the Department of Petroleum Resources have not yet started, talks could be concluded by the first quarter of next year.
On Thursday 9th November, oil prices settled higher amid ongoing unrest in the Middle East while Saudi Arabia's plan to slash crude exports lifted sentiment. The U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude for December contract was up 11 cents at $56.92 a barrel at 09:50 AM ET (13:50 GMT), while the ICE Futures Exchange in London Brent oil for January delivery was up by 7 cents at $63.56 a barrel. The U.S Energy Information Administration (EIA) weekly report for Wednesday 8th November showed an increase in crude oil inventories by 2.2 million barrels in the week ending November 3, whereas market analysts' expected a crude-stock loss of around 2.9 million barrels.
mounting expectations that oil producing countries will agree to extend an output cut at their meeting to be held at the end of November. Originally, OPEC and non-OPEC countries led by Russia agreed to cut production by 1.8 million bpd for six months. The agreement was then extended in May 2017 for a period of nine more months until March 2018 in a bid to reduce global oil inventories and support oil prices. However, discussions are ongoing in the run-up to the November 30th meeting for which oil ministers from OPEC and the participating non-OPEC countries will attend.

Q: Backbone with Jade issues with tag parameters Very annoying problem I'm facing.  I want to dynamically enter the url of an image using backbone.  I thought the following would do.
img(src="<%= image %>" width="100%" height="auto")

However the src url does not get replaced correctly and stays as "<%= image %>" when I do:
this.$el.html(this.template(this.model.toJSON()));

Any suggestions?

A: You can write like this and have the jade syntax intact.This way the underscore variable can be referred directly.

their schools' overall test scores. Students of color and disability are especially vulnerable to "push-out" trends and the discriminatory application of discipline. This film will promote awareness, expose the issues, and initiate dialogue that brings to light the detrimental effects of these practices.
The concept of this film is to expose the audience to the stories of individual students, and parents, in concert with interviews of nationally known educational, psychological, and legal professionals that have represented students caught in the pipeline who can explain the existence, effect and results. The first hand accounts of events will introduce a face to the pipeline by showing a personal side of this issue. Research and statistics will be demonstrated showing negative outcomes for youth who enter the pipeline and their tendency to be funneled down the continuum to prison. Best practices will be discussed as well as an awareness developed for the need for reform.
This film seeks answers to questions through investigation and interviews with notable attorneys, advocates, educational and school psychologists, school officials, teachers, and children and parents effected by the pipeline. It is important to define the scope of the interviews to include communities from small towns and rural areas, to medium sized cities and urban areas.

Home Be Secure Facebook Admits Sharing Users' Data With 61 Tech Companies
Facebook has admitted that the company gave dozens of tech companies and app developers special access to its users' data after publicly saying it had restricted outside companies to access such data back in 2015.
It's an unusual clear view of how the largest social networking site manages your personal information.
During the Cambridge Analytica scandal revealed March this year, Facebook stated that it already cut off third-party access to its users' data and their friends in May 2015 only.
However, in a 747-page long document [PDF] delivered to Congress late Friday, the social networking giant admitted that it continued sharing data with 61 hardware and software makers, as well as app developers after 2015 as well.
The disclosure comes in response to hundreds of questions posed to Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg by members of Congress in April about its company's practices with data of its billions of users.
The Washington Post reported that the company submitted the documents, representing Facebook's most granular explanation of exemption, within hours of a Friday night deadline.
Among other things, the documents revealed that Facebook granted a "one-time" six-month extension to 61 companies including AOL, Nike, United Parcel Service and dating app Hinge to come into compliance with Facebook's new privacy policy on user data.
Besides this, there are at least five other companies that theoretically may have accessed limited friends' data, as a result of API access that they were granted as part of a Facebook beta test, the social media added.
The documents also acknowledged that Facebook partnered with 52 domestic and international companies, including U.S. tech giants Apple, Microsoft, Spotify, Amazon, Sony, Acer, China-based Huawei and Alibaba, and device-makers Samsung and BlackBerry.
The social network shared information about its users with these companies to help them create their own versions of Facebook or Facebook features for their devices, well of course, "under the terms and policies they provide to their users."
"We engaged companies to build integrations for a variety of devices, operating systems, and other products where we and our partners wanted to offer people a way to receive Facebook or Facebook experiences," the document reads. "These integrations were built by our partners, for our users, but approved by Facebook."
However, Facebook also said the company has already discontinued 38 of these 52 partnerships and is going to end its partnership with an additional seven by the end of this July and another one by the end of this October.
Whereas, partnerships with three companies will continue, which includes Apple, Amazon, and Tobii, an accessibility app that enables people with ALS to access Facebook, with whom the company has agreements that extend beyond October 2018.
The document comes months after it revealed that personal data of 87 million Facebook users were harvested by Cambridge Analytica, a political consultancy firm, who reportedly helped Donald Trump win the US presidency in 2016.
The revelation led to public outcry for lawmakers to hold the social network accountable for its data-management practices, raising questions about whether Facebook can be trusted to protect the personal data of its 2 billion users.
Facebook's admission to the extensions, as Post noted, is "the fullest to date regarding reports that Facebook [had continued sharing] user data with some companies for years."
Just few days ago, we covered a separate incident, wherein a popular third-party quiz app that runs on Facebook app platform exposed data of up to 120 million Facebook users to hackers.

How Alex Lowe Shines for Us Even Now (Despite Some Dark Days)
May 12, 2016 by Andrew Szalay
Shishapangma's star. (All rights reserved)
Early on the morning of May 1, 2016, I was catching up on the news I missed during a mad-dash trip to New York City with Natalie and the kids. After I got through my political and baseball news apps' feeds, the reports of Ueli Steck's and David Goettler's discovery on the south face of Shishapangma was all that mattered: Alex Lowe's and David Bridges' remains were found after 16 years.
We knew it would happen, but I resented that Fox News, NPR and so many other mainstream sources were covering it. I prefer to keep access to climbing news through climbing sources and climbers' personal posts. This was out there for everyone to grab. Really out there. (Except, it was already mainstream; their deaths were reported in the New York Times, but I only just learned that.)
I get anxious about this stuff. After all, Alex has a widow. She wrote a beautiful memoir. What would it mean to his best friend and now her husband? The press never cares about stuff like that.
But as a few days passed, I realized the family's personal reaction wasn't as interesting as the one from everyone else that had some deep rooted knowledge, and often, affection, for Alex.
On October 5, 1999, Conrad Anker, David Bridges, and Alex Lowe were climbing Shishapangma. They were around 19,000 feet and intending to make the first American ski descent of the 8,000-meter peak. A large serac calved and started a massive avalanche down the south face. Anker was blown up into the air. Bridges and Lowe disappeared into the debris of loosened snow and enormous blocks of ice.
Conrad Anker is one of America's best recognized mountaineers today, particularly since he discovered the body of George Mallory on Everest and even more so now that he appeared in Jimmy Chin's award winning 2015 film Meru.
David Bridges was a climber and photographer on the rise, known for his strength and endurance. He was 29.
Alex Lowe, 40 at the time, was a living legend. He performed insane rescues on Denali, earning him he affectionate nickname "The Lung". He rode a Goddamn giant broken icicle to the ground and lived to ice climb again. And he was Anker's friend.
Lowe's widow, Jennifer, knew very well that one day Alex's body would come to the surface. She said in her memoir that she was not looking forward to it.
Turning to One Another
I reached out to some friends to see how the news affected them, some of whom hadn't heard the news yet. They weren't surprised; glaciers routinely turn up what they've taken from us. And it wasn't particularly enlightening; it wasn't like finding George Mallory's and Sandy Irvine's camera. But it made us talk not about new routes and reaching, but about Alex and our humanity.
Alex made them feel good. And he still does. Here are two examples:
Whenever Jason Cobb, who's written a guest post here on TSM before, thinks of Alex he
Alex Lowe's Icicle. (All rights reserved)
thinks of him grinning ear to ear, with his "crazy" hair sticking up, gripping his ice tools. Alex conjures up a sense of daring, and being gifted, while conveying enthusiasm that's still infectious today.
Another friend, a former contractor I hired to do some data management work, didn't know about Alex when we met. She was a big rock climber (even climbed when she was very pregnant) and worked for years at out local outfitter on weekends. I wrote my series on The Greatest Climber of All Time because of our conversations about all of the great climbers she didn't know. Alex naturally came up, both in talks with me and her talks with her colleagues at the outfitter. She asked her colleagues for advice for a thank-you gift when her contract ended; I received Jennifer Lowe-Anker's memoir, Forget Me Not.
She went on to recognize Alex's influence on the stories with Conrad Anker, particularly the National Park Adventure IMAX film featuring Conrad and Alex's son, Max. She emailed me as soon as she heard the news from Shishapangma: "It brings everything full circle."
Finding Alex again has made us pause and reflect on his life, not unlike on a religious feast day. It's made us look at ourselves, not just inwardly, but toward one another. I think we live in an era that is simultaneously wondrous and worrisome.
In a day and age where social structures are being "disrupted" and the craziness of a presidential election is crazy unlike ever before, and threat of terrorist attacks hangs over everyone quietly, Alex Lowe and Dave Bridges make an appearance. That's significant, because in 1999 when they were lost, the world was was also a scary place: in January President Clinton was impeached in a partisan brawl; war broke out in Kosovo; East Timor's vote for independence was met with uprooting; people fretted about what the Y2K bug would mean; and two students from Colombine High School in Colorado killed 12 students, a teacher and themselves in a searing mass shooting.
Alex shined to us then. Alex shines now. He did that despite the horrors of his times. And now we've found him again. Maybe it was just when we needed him most.

Alpinism is Not a Game
August 17, 2013 by Andrew Szalay Leave a Comment
Nick Cienski, the creative at the sporting brand Under Armour and formerly mountaineering brand Arc'teryx, has boldly declared that he will be pursuing a record in the Himalayas, through a budget of $5.6 million, to draw attention to one of the most horrible of crimes against mankind, human trafficking. He plans to climb all 14 of the world's 8,000-meter peaks within the shortest timeframe ever (just 24 months).
This may excite some, and why not? It sounds like a fresh adventure. Maybe it awakens something in you. He'll take you along every step of the way through social media, if you want.
While I love a good linkup, I'm sincerely worried that Cienski is a courageous ego with too much money and not enough independent alpine experience to take on this mission.
Until the 1960s, the most historic mountaineering and alpine climbs were lead by Europeans and those empowered by money. As Phil Powers of the American Alpine Club recently wrote, their access within places like the Explorers Club was as much about their "pedigree" as it was on skill and talent.
Today, the most historic climbs seem to come from climbers with skill and talent rewarded financially with grants and other financial awards. They're encouraged by others to pursue their latest ambition. The awards are votes of confidence.
Cienski hasn't earned such broad support, and those that have thousands of hours of experience climbing 8,000-meter peaks I doubt would want to pursue such an endeavor like the one Cienski is pursing. While he has some support from knowledgeable friends and those with financial resources, he's promoting this adventure as his alone. So I wonder, does Cienski's resources, without validation from the climbing community, matter?
For his goal, the effort, at altitude sustained the way he would experience it, would be exhausting. The dangers of climbing would mount on each successive ascent, mainly because of the time limit Cienski has placed on himself. What choices would be acceptable, which weren't acceptable before, when he falls behind schedule due to weather or a permit issue. And in those situations, what kinds of dangers would he place his support team and would-be rescuers in if he ran into trouble. (I have a horrible feeling that he wouldn't accept the responsibility of getting himself out of a jam, though I really don't know for certain.)
Based what I've seen and heard from friends more familiar with Cienski's project and his limited experience in the Himalayas, the quest he's embarking on appears to be as much, if not more, about his reputation and ego than it does for his cause. Alpine mountaineering is the most deadly form of climbing and Cienski will pursue it on its biggest stage, the Himayas, and very publically on social media.
I seriously admire his audacity but I cringe at his style. I wish him well, hope for his success, and pray he makes wise judgments in the mountains even if that means turning around and his goal is unsuccessful. If it's about raising awareness for human trafficking, then he would have been a victory regardless.

Messner and Kukuczka: Two of the Greatest Climbers of All Time
June 27, 2013 by Andrew Szalay 2 Comments
The Himalayas. (All rights reserved)
REINHOLD MESSNER — b. 1944. Italian.
JERZY KUKUCZKA — 1948-1989. Polish.
They weren't partners. They were rivals. And they are still tied for two on this list of the Greatest Climbers of All Time.
In one of only a few instances of climbing being a race to be first, Reinhold Messner and Jerzy Kukuczka pursued the summits of all fourteen 8,000-meter peaks.
Who was first was clear. Messner completed the circuit a year ahead of Kukuczka. But who was greater?
With flair, Messner initiated the quest to be the first man atop the fourteen peaks in 1983. At that time he had nine summits ticked on his ice axe.
Kukuczka took it as a challenge and threw himself into it without reservation, even though he had only climbed three of the 8,000ers to date. While Messner racked up his remaining ascents, Kukuczka got to the top of the mountains at a faster rate.
While Messner was a visionary and had a flamboyant way with the public, Kukuczka was the starving artist. Messner sought the summits over 16 years to complete the quest and used established routes. Kukuczka on the other hand finished a year after Messner but after starting his quest only eight years earlier. Messner had modern equipment. Much of Kukuczka's was used or handmade.
Nine of Kukuczka's bagged summits were by new routes. Four of his overall ascents were in winter.
Messner climbed two peaks alone, including Mount Everest, and climbed Everest without supplemental oxygen.
Kukuczka needed oxygen on Everest.
I have my favorite, but such a side-by-side comparison makes it a photo finish when being objective. And the lens was smudged.
Now that I've exhausted three of the best men, and a woman that some of you don't think was the best among women, are wondering who in hell will I tell you is No. 1. For that, come back tomorrow at 11:00 a.m. US Eastern Time.
This post is part a culmination of a series of posts that considered Who Are the Greatest Climbers of All Time. If you enjoyed this post, please consider following The Suburban Mountaineer on Twitter and Facebook.

Four Winter Attempts Set for Karakorum
December 10, 2011 by Andrew Szalay Leave a Comment
Here is an update in case you hadn't heard. Climbing magazine's website is reporting that not only is a Russian Team attempting K2 this winter but that Italian alpinist Simone Moro and Kazakhstan climber Denis Urubko will leave on Boxing Day (December 26th) to attempt Nanga Parbat via the Diamir Face. Another small Polish team, led by Piotr Strzezysz, will also attempt Nanga Parbat. Lastly, an international team will try to summit Gasherbrum I. This leaves, at last news, only Broad Peak not to be addressed this season.
Why does this matter? Because only four of the 14 Himalayan mountains over 8,000 meters have not yet been summited in winter. It's particularly significant in the scope of mountaineering challenges. For instance, these record firsts are not trivial firsts or firsts that interests only a nationality (like the first American to climb Annapurna,) or a gender (first woman to climb the the 8,000ers without supplemental oxygen, for instance.)
Too many qualifiers means it's not universally important. The important firsts are those of the challenge of first ascent, first alpine style ascent and often the first ascent in winter — regardless or who accomplishes the climb in terms of nationality, race or gender. While the qualifiers matter, the unqualified accomplishment is broadly significant.
So that's something to live vicariously with. I'll keep you posted… I hope you will do me the same favor…
Thanks for dropping by again. If you enjoyed this post, please consider following the Suburban Mountaineer on Facebook or Twitter. Happy reading and carpe climb 'em!

Under the stewardship of Music Director CHEN Xieyang and Chief Conductor XU Zhong, the Suzhou Symphony Orchestra has conceived daring, illuminating and entertaining programs that encompass a broad range of repertoire with stylistic diversity and technical rigor.

Kanye West Unveils Yeezy Sneakers Made of Algae Foam
"We're going to be farming and going seed to sole."

While on stage at the Fast Company Innovation Festival on Thursday, Kanye West shared a new shoe prototype from his Yeezy fashion line — and the kicks contain environmentally friendly algae.
"Eco-concerns are intersecting with what we do," Steven Smith, the head designer at Yeezy, said from the stage. "This is just the beginning of the future that Kanye envisioned for us to start working on."
The sneaker prototype was manufactured in Atlanta from a combination of petroleum-based ethylene-vinyl acetate and foam produced from algae. West told the audience that the new Yeezy headquarters in Cody, Wyoming, will include a hydroponic farm where the company can grow its own algae.
"We're going to be farming and going seed to sole," West said.
According to a Thursday tweet from the official Yeezy Twitter account, the shoes are Yeezy Foam Runners, a style first unveiled in September and set for a 2020 release.
It's not yet clear whether all Yeezy Foam Runners will be made with algae or if the algae shoes will be a subset of the line. But either way, the eco-friendly sneakers will be available in early 2020 for $75, according to the tweet.
The prototype pair West showed off on Thursday were a bland khaki color, but he said the company is looking into environmentally friendly dyes. Regardless of color, though, the Croc-esque style of the sneakers might not appeal to everyone — though the emphasis on using eco-friendly materials in fashion probably should.
The fashion industry pumps millions of tons of carbon into the atmosphere every year, while many of the chemicals and dyes used during manufacturing end up polluting Earth's waterways.
By switching to more eco-friendly materials and processes, players in the fashion industry can do their part to stop this harm from befalling the planet — one ugly sneaker at a time.

MOVIE REVIEW: 'Ralph Breaks The Internet' Delivers Another Mega-Hit for the Disney Machine
11-21-18 • Film, reviews Posted by Mel Valentin
You don't have to be a verbal anti-Disney critic or an all-around cynic to recognize that Ralph Breaks the Internet, the six-years-in-the-making sequel to Wreck-It Ralph, the incredibly inventive videogame-inspired animated film and modest box-office hit (by Disney standards), functions as keen, insightful storytelling, and a cautionary tale about our social media- and Internet-obsessed culture, and maybe most importantly of all to Disney's shareholders, as a two-hour commercial for Disney's wealth of pop-culture products. Ralph Breaks the Internet never breaks stride during its nearly two-hour running time – a compliment in and of itself – when the story segues into a branded exercise in modernizing Disney's princesses or throws tangential asides for Disney's other, more recently purchased studios – and cinematic universes of their own, Star Wars and, of course, Marvel's stable of superheroes.
And yet that ultimately doesn't matter. Ralph Breaks the Internet weaves a genuinely touching, poignant story of a friendship challenged by stagnation, inertia, and expectations into a propulsive, engaging story involving a quest for the equivalent of the Holy Grail in the old-school videogame world inhabited by the title character, Wreck-It Ralph (John C. Reilly), a big-hearted, soft-headed villain-turned-hero, and Vanellope von Schweets (Sarah Silverman), a race-car driver and onetime/all-time princess. Their unlikely friendship didn't just center Wreck-It Ralph. It elevated Wreck-It Ralph into best-of-its kind territory. Smartly, Ralph Breaks the Internet treats their friendship as organic, changing over time as the characters themselves grow and change. Except Ralph doesn't want to grow and change or even experience anything new. He's perfectly content to put in his hours at the videogame arcade every day, clock out at the same time every night, and retire to a local pub to commiserate with his videogame pals, including (and especially) Vanellope. She, however, wants something: new risks, new experiences, and possibly new everything.
The crisis in Ralph and Vanellope plays out organically as Ralph Breaks the Internet unfolds. After the driver's wheel in Vanellope's game breaks in the real world, threatening the end of Vanellope's virtual world (her game, Sugar Rush, will be sold for parts), Ralph and Vanellope leave the videogame arcade behind for the infinite reaches of the Internet and an auction site that Ralph charmingly calls "EBoy" (EBay, of course). Ralph Breaks the Internet imagines the Internet as a gigantic, futuristic city, with a literal information highway connecting major and minor sites (Google gets a shout-out, YouTube doesn't, but more about that later). Pop-ups are also literally aggressive salesmen who try to corner unsuspecting users on their way to different sites. They "win" the wheel – apparently the last of its kind – but soon discover they need something else (i.e., currency) to complete their purchase, leading to Ralph and Vanellope to an embrace a money-making scheme courtesy of an untrustworthy pop-up.
Ralph and Vanellope temporarily separate, the better for Ralph Breaks the Internet to send Vanellope into the land of Disney princesses (knowing, self-aware, meta-critical product placement alert) and Ralph into the land of viral videos and BuzzzTube (YouTube by another name). Ralph soon learns what works, what draws eyeballs and more importantly, "hearts" (currency), all of which gets satirized, if not outright skewered by co-directors Rich Moore and Phil Johnston (who also co-wrote the screenplay with Pamela Ribon), though knowing nods from moviegoers isn't likely to change real-world behavior (if, in fact, that's their actual intention). A spikey-haired algorithm, Yesss (Taraji P. Henson), exudes an unmistakable cool-girl vibe that undercuts any attempt at outright criticism. An open-world, apocalyptic racing game led by another cool, punkish character, Shank (Gal Gadot), is just as seductive, both in and out of Ralph Breaks the Internet, though she plays an important role in Vanellope's desire for new, different experiences that Sugar Rush and the 8-bit videogame arcade life she left behind doesn't and can't offer.
That leaves the well-meaning, well-intentioned Ralph, at one point literally defined and exploited by his "insecurity," as, if not an outright villain, then an obstacle or obstruction in the way of Vanellope's happiness. That Ralph has to grow and change, leaving the worst aspects of masculinity behind, is a given in a friendship-centered story. That Ralph has to face the awful, physical manifestation of his gargantuan insecurities, isn't, however, a given. It's far more nightmarish and disturbing than most audiences would expect from a family-oriented film, but it's also one more surprise, one among countless others (all of them welcome), that ultimately lifts Ralph Breaks The Internet above a two-hour exercise in Disney branding into a heartbreaking, staggering work of (near) genius.

Existing-home sales, which are completed transactions that include single-family, townhomes, condominiums and co-ops, jumped 10 percent to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 4.53 million in September from a downwardly revised 4.12 million in August, according to new data from the National Association of Realtors. Sales, however, remain 19.1 percent below the 5.60 million-unit pace in September 2009 when first-time buyers were ramping up in advance of the initial deadline for the tax credit last November.
Lawrence Yun, NAR chief economist, said the housing market is in the early stages of recovery. "A housing recovery is taking place but will be choppy at times depending on the duration and impact of a foreclosure moratorium. But the overall direction should be a gradual rising trend in home sales with buyers responding to historically low mortgage interest rates and very favorable affordability conditions," he said.
To illustrate the jump in housing affordability, the median monthly mortgage payment for a recently purchased home is several hundred dollars less than it was five years ago. "In fact, the median monthly mortgage payment in many areas is less than people are paying for rent," Golder said.
Housing affordability conditions today are 60 percentage points higher than during the housing boom, so it has become a very strong buyers' market, especially for families with long-term plans. "The savings today's buyers are receiving are not a one-time benefit. Buyers with fixed-rate mortgages will save money every year they are living in their home - this is truly an example of how homeownership builds wealth over the long term," Golder added.
Total housing inventory at the end of September fell 1.9 percent to 4.04 million existing homes available for sale, which represents a 10.7-month supply at the current sales pace, down from a 12.0-month supply in August. Raw unsold inventory is 11.7 percent below the record of 4.58 million in July 2008.
"Vacant homes and homes where mortgages have not been paid for an extended number of months need to be cleared from the market as quickly as possible, with a new set of buyers helping the recovery along a healthy path," Yun said. "Inventory remains elevated and continues to favor buyers over sellers. A normal seasonal decline in inventory is expected through the upcoming months."
Regionally, existing-home sales in the Northeast increased 10.1 percent to an annual pace of 760,000 in September but are 20.8 percent below September 2009. The median price in the Northeast was $239,200, which is 1.4 percent below a year ago.
Existing-home sales in the Midwest jumped 14.5 percent in September to a level of 950,000 but are 26.4 percent below a year ago. The median price in the Midwest was $139,700, down 5.2 percent from September 2009.
In the South, existing-home sales rose 10.6 percent to an annual pace of 1.77 million in September but are 14.9 percent lower than September 2009. The median price in the South was $149,500, down 2.6 percent from a year ago.
Existing-home sales in the West increased 5.0 percent to an annual level of 1.05 million in September but are 16.7 percent below a year ago. The median price in the West was $213,600, which is 4.9 percent lower than September 2009.

I recently added the new T-Fal Extreme Titanium frypan to my kitchen. It sounded like the perfect cookware for myself as I often make a mess when I cook, including getting food stuck and burned onto pans. T-Fal's Extreme Titanium line of cookware is the newest in their non stick technology, made with a non-stick scratch resistant coating that can even be used with metal utensils. T-fal offered me a culinary challenge, and I wanted to put the pan to the test by cooking something fun and also challenging. I ended up making some delicious Japanese Souffle Pancakes, also known as Fluffy or Jiggly Pancakes.
Japanese Souffle Pancakes seemed like the perfect type of "sticky" food to cook on my Extreme Titanium pan. These pancakes originated in Japan and are cuter than traditional pancakes because of its fluffy texture. They jiggle when you shake them and also have a creamier taste. The batter I used was made from scratch and was a sticky mess of flour, egg yolks, whipped egg whites, cornstarch, sugar, greek yogurt and more. Pre-heating the pan was easy with the Extreme Titanium pan's Thermospot indicator that turned into a solid red circle when the pan reached the ideal temperature to start cooking. We made parchment paper ring molds for the fluffy pancakes to give it that consistently cute shape! Using a medium-low setting, we fried the pancakes to perfection and even with the sticky batter, the pancakes flipped with ease on the Extreme Titanium pan. The pancakes turned out great and yes, they jiggled.
It was my first time making Fluffy Japanese Pancakes and it was pretty easy to make with T-Fal's new frying pan. I was lucky that my mom has been really into making these recently and was able to teach me the recipe. With her help and using the T-Fal Extreme Titanium pan, I was able to make some delicious pancakes and clean up with ease.
