This helps a physician not only understand exact! y how to treat the patient but it also tracks flu cases in the county.

At the center of today 's economic and credit crisis is the rising tide of home foreclosures, which government agencies and some large banks are trying to address by allowing borrowers to modify their mortgages. But their efforts are likely to fall short because those entities don't control most of the nation's worst-performing loans. Instead. mvestment groups worldwide do, and representatives of some of them have been resistant at making such changes because it could crimp returns. While experts say breaking that deadlock is one of the keys to solving the mortgage mess, the tenor of testimony at a congressional hearing this week left little room for opt1m1sm. Rep. Barney Frank, DMass., chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, said legislation may be needed to resolve these issues.

One solution would have been to have the government buy up the toxic mortgage securities under the $700 billion bailout Iaw 'but Treasury Secretary H~nry Paulson ruled that out as an option on Wednesday. A more viable alternative may be to have the government guarantee mortgages that are modified in case there are redefaults, an issue that has worried those holding mortgage-backed securities.

At the center of today 's economic and credit crisis is the rising tide of home foreclosures, which government agencies and some large banks are trying to address by allowing borrowers to modify their mortgages. But their efforts are likely to fall short because those entities don't control most of the nation's worst-performing loans. Instead. mvestment groups worldwide do, and representatives of some of them have been resistant at making such changes because it could crimp returns. While experts say breaking that deadlock is one of the keys to solving the mortgage mess, the tenor of testimony at a congressional hearing this week left little room for opt1m1sm. Rep. Barney Frank, DMass., chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, said legislation may be needed to resolve these issues.
