Under fire to do more to stop the foreclosure crisis, the Obama administration will announce Friday new steps to help the unemployed and those who are “underwater” with a bigger mortgage than their home is worth.

For some unemployed borrowers, the effort would require servicers to reduce or suspend monthly mortgage payments for up to six months, an administration official said.

When it comes to kitchen design, one must consider everything. Plus the kitchen sink. This once small, behind-the-scenes cooking cranny has encroached upon, if not surpassed, the living room as the warmest, most social spot in the American house.
