LOWELL, Mass. — Tucked between train tracks and the Pawtucket canal, is an old mill – a place that made Lowell a cradle of the industrial revolution. Today, manufacturing is gone and this mill is the cradle of an artists' revolution.
But getting here took some time and a major obstacle: trust.
A "dirty, smelly" start
Karl Frey purchased the mill ina 2004 as an investment. However, his tenants quickly went bankrupt, moved out and left the mill empty. With few options, Frey turned to the city for advice and learned about a group of artists who were courted in the 1990s to revitalize Lowell but got burned by developers who had promised them affordable housing — and then built luxury condos instead.
Frey invited the skeptical artists to visit, but he overestimated the romantic draw of his old mill.
"It was dirty, smelly, poorly lit, broken-down cardboard boxes all over the place, but I figured they could visualize the space," said Frey. "Boy, was I dead wrong on that one."
Frey said he wasn't taking no for an answer, so he emptied out a floor and painted it white, then invited the artists to the mill again, this time for a party.
"We stopped at Walmart on the way and picked up some plastic tubs and stopped at the liquor store and got ice and beer," Frey said. "We set up a card table and a cheese platter, and I had an architect draw up some floor plans."
Frey even mapped out the studios on the floor using yellow traffic paint. This time, the artists loved the clean, open space.
"It started a land rush, and we leased that whole floor that night," Frey said.
Building up Western Avenue
That was the beginning of a very successful symbiotic relationship. Artist Maxine Farkas runs the mill, which became known as the Western Avenue Studios. She said Frey has never broken a promise to the artists.
"I think that is what makes this relationship with a developer so successful," Farkas said. "Because he keeps his word."
Frey's word led to 200 artists moving into studio space in the converted mill. But that's not all. Frey and the artists started working on a new idea: converting another building in the mill into 50 affordable work-living spaces for artists. Learn about the new building.
"This used to be a freight elevator shaft, but we're going to turn it into my husband's recording and mixing studio," said jeweler Heather Wang, who recently shared her vision of the renewed space with some artist soon-to-be-neighbors.
"Heather has a space that is carved into the old uses of the space," said Rebecca Mattson, the local developer working on the project. "Some of them are wide open, some have exposed brick, some have exposed wood — there's all the variants of the original building based on how it was built and what it was used for," she said.
The new housing units are between 800 and 1600 square feet, the size of an apartment or a small house.
"Literally it's wide-open space so you can do whatever you want," Mattson said.
Farkas, whose apartment is being built on the second floor, said she is most excited about her neighbors.
"I'm going to have a community. And that's the most important thing for me," Farkas said.
Mattson relished the artists' enthusiasm.
"It's freedom. It's community. It's open spaces," Mattson said. "You just can't go into any apartment building and paint your walls and build a loft."
It's also remarkably affordable: one dollar per square foot.
Making the new space happen
Mattson said that was possible because the developers and artists worked closely together.
"We don't have an elevator in the building," Mattson said. "They were willing to go without air conditioning. They're willing to go without dishwashers. There willing to go without any flooring. They just want primed walls. They just want space that they can afford."
Mattson said that this is the first time a space for artists is being traditionally financed.
"Usually it's highly subsidized," Mattson said. "This is different because it's coming from the real estate perspective. It was hard for bankers to get their mind around what an artist rental live-work space could be."
Fortunately, the artists had Karl Frey on their side. And in the words of Farkas, Frey is wicked persistent.
"TD Bank, a very, very well-run financial institution, has made us the loan to do the 50 live-work units," Frey said.
Frey said it's not a loan a bank would normally make, but he was able to show them five years of success at the Western Avenue studios.
"One day I will turn the building over to the artists and their principal interests, taxes, insurance, reserves for replacements — everything that cost them to run the building will be exactly the same as it was the day before when they were paying rent," Frey said.
Frey said that seven years ago no one would have believed that 250 artists would be living and working in his mill. But he courted the artists, he convinced the bankers and he even surprised himself.
The next open studios at Western Avenue are on Mar. 3. The live-work space is anticipated to open in May.

The "Peggy" experience was corroborated by a 2010 study by research group CFI. They found that people were happier when the person they talked to when calling customer service sounded as if they were native to their country. Further, the survey showed that out of 1,500 adults surveyed, 32% said that when they talked to a call center outside the U.S. they had to talk to more than one representative. While 85% said that their issue was eventually resolved, just half (50%) said that the issue was resolved on the first call. On the other hand, when speaking with call centers inside the U.S., only 21% said that they had to talk to more than one representative when calling, a whopping 94% claim that their issues were resolved and a large majority (67 percent) said that the problem was solved, or the question was answered, on the first call.
Over the years, thanks in large part to outsourcing call centers overseas, the term "call center" has almost earned a bad a reputation as "outsourcing." People expect to be road-blocked. People expect to have a problem dealing with a call center. That can, and has been, changing by outsourcing the customer contacts to businesses inside American shores to companies that are well trained to deal with the issues in a quick and concise manner.
Trust can be a powerful commodity when it comes to the business world. Having your customers believe that they are dealing with a company that wants their issues to be resolved, that they are not intentionally being shunted off to an Indian operator in order to get them to give up on their question could mean more than a few extra dollars up front.

I'm just someone who tries to help people understand their credit score. I'd love to send them to this website, but silly things keep me from doing so. Here's just one page in need of some professional proofreading: (follow-up edit: the page was fixed after my post, so I removed the link and examples...they were a bit embarrasing). I'd love to help you, but I can't email or offer feedback to you in any meaningful way unless it's about my personal score/account. If you monitor these forums at all, hopefully you'll see this and make some changes. Come on myFICO. For a major corporation, this is really bad. Simple spelling errors on your site make you look indifferent at best, incompetent at worst. Given how the accuracy of your work affect the lives of millions, things like this should be incredibly important to you. You should be "all about the details." Hire a good proofreader It shows that you take your work seriously. (Funny thing: there is "spell check" option on this message box. Hint, hint.)
Welcome to the Forums.
Ok., I tried. I don't have a reply for that one. I for one strive to give good and accurate info. But if I do happen to misspell something, I hope not to come off as incompetent. Just relax, come on in, learn and share. We welcome you.
Not a big deal when spelling is a challenge on a forum That's to be expected...it's communication "on-the-fly" and "off-the-cuff." But actual company webpages are another thing completely. Don't get me wrong, we all make mistakes (I do, frequently ...but I am sure that FICO does not want pages like that to affect our perception of them. It does...that's just a marketing fact. Ask any HR recruiter how they feel about a resume with a typo on it. Can you say "circular file?" Yeah...humans are like that! Thanks for the welcome. I don't normally post to forums, but that seemed to be the only way to let someone know about their unfortunate typos...and I really just wanted to help! Thanks!
It drives me INSANE when people say
If "your" trying to do _____....
Hello.... you, your, you're.. all totally different. Lolz.

Two-Cent Doughnuts Breed Decades Of Bad Blood: It's Not So Easy Going From Free To Paid
from the tough-to-shake-it dept
The folks over at Planet Money have yet another brilliant podcast where they give an amazing example of this, showing how the impact can be incredibly long lasting as well. It's the story of why so many US veterans hate the Red Cross. Apparently, for a period of time during World War II, the Red Cross stopped giving doughnuts away to service members for free, and started charging $0.02 per doughnut. And, to this day -- seventy years later, many WWII veterans (and many who came after them) have a distaste for the Red Cross, and nothing will shake it.
The whole podcast is worth listening to, as it actually explains why the Red Cross did this (apparently, it didn't want to, but officials put pressure on them when the US entered WWII, because Allied soldiers paid for their snacks, and were annoyed that the Americans were getting free doughnuts). And for decades now, the Red Cross has tried to make up for this -- often showing up at places where veterans are with tons of free doughnuts -- but to little avail.
The program works through a few theories on why this simple change has resulted in so much animosity. They conclude that it was much more than just a "price" change, but a "category change."
Chalk it up to something called categorical change, says Uri Simonsohn, a University of Pennsylvania business professor. Price changes, people can adjust to. But this was different.That is, these are things that people, inherently, don't think they should be charged for. Switching those things from free to fee isn't just about the price, but about the concept itself. Now, some will argue that this doesn't necessarily apply to things like newspaper paywalls, since people are already used to paying for newspapers. But, I do wonder if that's really true -- especially for the younger generation. They're not defining a newspaper website as a newspaper website, but rather as "information online." And, to them, that information is free. Period. It's going to be pretty damn difficult to get over that "category shift."
"Imagine, for Thanksgiving, you go to your parents' for dinner and after a nice dinner they say, 'That's going to be $10 per person,' " Simonsohn says. "You would be upset."
The problem isn't the price — $10 for a good turkey dinner might not be such a bad deal — but that you're being charged in the first place. It changes the relationship. For the veterans, the Red Cross went from being a little like Mom, to being the corner store

With rising fuel and food prices, many people are turning to growing some of their food. However, people in urban areas or without access to land face challenges to growing their own. Community gardening is a way for these groups of people to cultivate a garden and become more closely involved with their local community. Community gardens are vibrant parts of many urban, suburban, and rural areas.
A new book underscores the successes of many community gardens and gives guidelines on how to participate and start one in your area. Community Gardening, by Ellen Kirby and Elizabeth Peters (Brooklyn Botanic Gardens, 2008; $10), is the latest of the Brooklyn Botanic Garden guides. It features hands-on tips, including information on soils, water conservation, and plant selection. For community organizers, this book offers practical advice for starting a community garden and using it to build cohesion in a neighborhood. It profiles successful programs around the country and has a resource section for more information.
To find out more about this new book, go to: Brooklyn Botanic Garden.

FRISCO, Texas — Towson suspended two senior starters for unspecified violations of NCAA rules, knocking them out of Saturday's FCS championship game.
The suspensions of cornerback Jordan Love and tight end James Oboh were announced before the Tigers played in their first FCS title game against two-time defending champion North Dakota State.
School officials gave no other information, including details about what led to the suspensions.
Love, a former transfer from Georgia, had 64 tackles this season and was second on the team with 10 pass breakups.
Oboh, who came to Towson from Florida Atlantic before the 2010 season, had 23 catches for 354 yards for a 15.4 yard-per-catch average. His four receiving TDs were tied for the team lead.

Erving, Massachusetts, is defined by the long, high ridge rising north of the Millers Falls River, with the vast majority of the population clustered in the valley of the river. The available waterpower defined the character of the town, and from the beginning it supported grist mills and a tannery. You can see the river in the foreground of this picture. The town is rural in character, and many of the buildings seen in this picture are still a familiar site.

Love and basketball
Reliving past glories with Blazer resurgence
(Stephanie Baker/ N-R Sales Representative) With so much interest in the Portland Trail Blazers, who have made it to round two of the NBA playoffs for the first time in 14 years, I find myself watching the games again.
I hadn't really followed the team since the Bill Walton years, when they won it all in 1977. It was a magical time for all Oregonians, but especially for a skinny, nearsighted pubescent with a mouth full of tin — a 15-year-old in the 9th grade.
Why was it so special? Two words: Dave Twardzik.
He was a starting guard for the Blazers, and I was convinced he was everything I wanted in a man. He was cute, funny, hardworking, Catholic and part Polish. For a girl who had never been kissed by a boy or even gone on a date, it was everything you could possibly ask for.
I was sick of always going to school dances stag and staying home Friday nights to watch "The Love Boat." Finally, I had someone who was mine – if only in my mind.
I loved him from afar. I watched his every move on court and memorized all his stats.
It didn't matter that he was 27 and married. Those were mere technicalities. In my pretend world, he was single, available and completely infatuated with me.
I etched his name in every one of my desks in junior high. There were variations: "Dave Twardzik," "Mr. and Mrs. Dave Twardzik" and even "Steffi Twardzik."
I didn't care that I was defacing school property. I wanted to shout to the world my love for my idol.
I probably would've graduated to lockers or bathroom walls had Mrs. Milligan not announced during the Haiku portion of poetry class that whoever was ruining the desks needed to stop it right now.
When the Blazers won it all on June 5, it was the perfect day in my perfect world. I still remember everything about it.
You can't get back moments like that. They're once in a lifetime happenings.
I'm now middle-aged and menopausal. I'm lucky if I meet a man who hasn't committed a felony or gotten behind on his child support.
When I'm feeling old, when I'm feeling life is over for me, I look at the little Dave Twardzik Christmas ornament I made out of dough. It still hangs on my shelf.
That makes me think back to that special year in my life when a man I'd never even met made me feel pretty, smart and popular, even if I was the only one who knew it. Rip City!
Stephanie Baker
Sales Representative

These materials include those publications and printed matter that contain information on the academic and/or other administrative programs and what these programs offer to prospective students. This information must be consistent. It is the responsibility of the Office of Public Services/Publications to coordinate this institutional effort by producing these items in conjunction with the Office of Admissions in its institutional recruiting effort and with individual units in contributing the pertinent content of specific University offerings.
Examples of publications within this category that promote the University to an off-campus constituency include items such as the Information Piece and Viewbook—in general.
All requests for other forms of printed matter used in conjunction with the University's general operation should be approved by the Office of Public Services/Publications without regard to funding, administrative level of origin or distribution on or off campus in order to ensure proper use of the University's name and identity emblems.
Publications and printed matter that promote specific programs, departments, activities and special events at Southeast may be included in this category. For example, academic units may wish to augment the official academic program brochure series (described earlier in these policies and procedures) with a poster or similar format to promote a given academic program. Other activities, academic or non-academic, such as concerts, play performances, special observances, etc., may be promoted with printed matter in this category.
Responsibility for originating and funding these materials rests with the originating unit; however, for conformity with University graphics standards, the Office of Public Services/Publications must approve the request for printing or procurement.
The Office of Public Services/Publications has the responsibility for monitoring the promotional materials of organizations affiliated with the University including student clubs, organizations, sororities, fraternities and honorary/professional groups to ascertain the proper use of the University identification.
All of these materials may be prepared in total or in part by the originating unit or organization as to layout, design and artwork. Assistance from the Office of Public Services/Publications will be limited to official University units and/or availability of staff time and resources from other official responsibilities.
Because forms used by the University bear the University's name and identity, some attention must be given to the uniform application of this information, especially in the forms that are sent off campus in the conduct of University business.
All requests for forms will be monitored by the Office of Public Services/Publications to determine the following minimum considerations:
This category also includes academic program brochures, which are distributed to students in the recruiting process. An academic program brochure is a publication that describes an academic major and/or degree, either graduate or undergraduate. This official list of qualifying programs shall be provided and updated by the Office of the Provost.

The University of Wyoming (UW) and National Outdoor Leadership School (NOLS) Articulation Agreement provides the opportunity for degree seeking UW students to receive UW academic credit for NOLS courses.
When NOLS students step into the world's wild places, they bring not only their backpacks, but also more than 40 years of experience in expeditioning. NOLS founder Paul Petzoldt's idea was simple: take people into the wilderness for an extended period of time, teach them the right things, feed them well and when they walk out of the mountains, they will be skilled leaders. The core of his idea was the extended expedition, one of sufficient length that a person could learn and practice the skills over and over again. That is the backbone of every NOLS course and today the school is widely recognized as the world's leader in the extended expedition, from two weeks to twelve.
This articulation agreement covers domestic and international NOLS originated semester-long courses. This agreement will also cover some individual short-term courses (14-45 days; including mountaineering, rock climbing, sailing, kayaking, skiing, snowboarding, and backpacking) and the Wilderness First Responder course ("WFR")
Students who have completed at least one semester at UW, and are in good standing for academics and conduct prior to the proposed period of study, may apply to receive articulated NOLS credit.
All students interested in obtaining internship course credits must be advised by the appropriate UW unit prior to taking the NOLS semester course.
Students enrolled in the NOLS program may apply their financial aid to the cost of the program if they are enrolled as a full-time degree seeking student at the University of Wyoming.
UW credit hours will be awarded in the approved courses, which require prior UW academic department and college approval, upon completion of the NOLS courses, provided a grade equivalent to a UW grade of C or better was obtained at NOLS.
Students should be aware that for internship credits to be awarded, additional academic work requirements determined by the internship course home will need to be met. Those additional requirements vary between academic programs and amount of credit desired, but may include a satisfactory evaluation from NOLS, a weekly journal, a substantial written report, and an oral presentation.
UW credit will not be awarded if the student withdraws or is expelled from the NOLS course.
Prior to participating in a NOLS course for UW credit, students must contact the Director of the Center for Advising and Career Services, his/her designee, and the student's assigned adviser. These persons will approve the student's schedule, provide the appropriate course numbers, and liaise with the NOLS Registrar.
Students enrolling in NOLS semester long courses must register for a minimum of 12 UW credit hours for the participating semester.
UW students studying at NOLS will be bound by all rules, regulations and by-laws in operation at NOLS. In addition, since UW students remain enrolled as degree candidates at UW, they must also adhere to UW standards of conduct, rules and regulations. UW and NOLS both abide by the Federal Right to Privacy Act (FERPA).
Each UW student will pay to NOLS:
The NOLS tuition and related fees (any changes to be advised in writing by NOLS at least three months in advance of the change coming into effect), related fees would include equipment deposit;
Complete medical and evacuation health insurance;
Other fees (e.g. tuition protection program, local transportation, and gear purchases), air transportation and additional living expenses will be paid directly by the student to the provider of the service.

Kearney Five Points uses big 7th inning to top Bow juniors
The Broken Bow juniors played a back and forth game with Kearney Five Points that ended with a big top of 7th inning from Kearney en route to a 10-5 victory. The Indians trailed just 5-4 heading into the top of the 7th inning before Kearney was able to find the gaps against Taylor Shea, who took over for starter Jake McCormick. "We faced McCormick the last time we played them, so I'm surprised we didn't pick up on him sooner, but eventually our kids made the adjustments," Kearney Coach Jacob Pacheco said. "That's what we preach, making adjustments." The two teams traded runs in the first innings before Kearney pushed three across the plate in their half of the 3rd inning, to make the score 4-1. Broken Bow battled back in the bottom of the third with a run on an error and RBI singles from Scott Davis and Josey Evans. That evened the scored at 4-4 heading into the 4th inning. Kearney scored one with a sacrifice fly to go up 5-4 which held until the 7th inning when they were eventually able to pull away. "They've always been a good hitting team," Broken Bow coach Kyle Stringham said. "We went back and forth on whether to leave Jake in, but he had already crossed the 100-pitch mark." Tommy McCormick got the start on the mound and struck out five and walked out four in his six innings of work. He allowed just two earned runs on six hits. Shea paced the offense, recording three singles in his four plate appearances and had one RBI. Hunter Minnick drove in two runs whileEvans, McCormick, and Davis all finished with one RBI.

Inverse Functions
Lesson 6 of 24
Objective: Students will be able to write the inverse of a given function.
Big Idea: Extend beyond the skill of finding an inverse function to understanding their purpose through real life scenarios.
Warm up and Homework Review
I include Warm ups with a Rubric as part of my daily routine. My goal is to allow students to work on Math Practice 3 each day. Grouping students into homogeneous pairs provides an opportunity for appropriately differentiated math conversations. The Video Narrative specifically explains this lesson's Warm Up- Inverse Functions which asks students to solve an equation for both x and y and compare the results.
I also use this time to correct and record the previous day's Homework.
Resources (6)
Why do we have functions?
This question is not only meaningful to this lesson but also to this unit and all of Algebra. I love to tell my students that mathematicians are always looking for shortcuts (Math Practice 8), not because they don't want to do the mathematics but because they want to do it in the most efficient way. A formula or function provides a MASSIVE amount of information in a very small amount of space which makes it a great "shortcut".
For example, two numbers add to 1000. Even if I limited myself to whole numbers, this would take me a very long time to list. If I included all real numbers, I could NEVER finish. However, if I write x + y = 1000, this represents ALL possibilities.
Inverses in Real Life
I introduce inverse functions through a real life scenario. I found that you have to be extremely careful in the problems that your pick to explore inverse functions. Both variables have the possibility of being the independent variable. This excludes any function with time as one of the variables.
The Jamisons got lunch at the Nampa Farmer's Market. They bought drinks for $1 and hotdogs for $2 and spent $10.
The students begin by finding an equation to model this situation(Math Practice 4). It should look something like d + 2h = 10. We then solve this equation for both d and h, look at the equation as both a function of hot dogs and drinks, and then compare our findings (Math Practice 7). This will lead us to the concept of inverse functions.
I use my class pairings extensively during a guided investigation style lesson like this. I have the students work through whatever step and then check with their partner. We then discuss it as a class. I vary my methods for choosing a person to share their work. Sometimes I will call on someone randomly. Sometimes I will ask for volunteers. If the problem has a limited number of solutions like yes/no or true/false, I will ask for a thumbs up/down from everyone.
Once we have finished this problem, we explore some of the cases of inverses situations in everyday life. This provides an opportunity for students to develop a deeper conceptual understanding of inverses of functions.
Inverses in Algebra
Students must also be able to find the inverse of a function not connected to a real life scenario. I am showing the traditional method of switching the x and y values. It is important to make it clear that it becomes a DIFFERENT function. There is no way that y = 3x - 5 is the same as x = 3y - 5. This may seem obvious but not always to the students. The notation f(x) and f-1(x) represent two different functions. The fact that they both use x is confusing. I point them back to the hotdog/drink problem and remind them that the x stood for both drinks and hotdogs depending on which function we looked at.

Guided Practice
This Guided Practice has students find the inverse of linear as well as a quadratic functions and includes a real life scenario. To focus on having the students verbalize the connections between the equation and the scenario (Math Practice 3), a useful method is to have one student explain their thinking and then the other paraphrase. This also ensures that they are all participating and building understanding.
Another strategy that I use is to walk around the room listening for particularly insightful ideas or explanations. I then ask students to share. This is especially helpful when I can pick a student who doesn't usually share to help build their mathematical confidence.

Exit Ticket
I use an exit ticket each day as a quick formative assessment to judge the success of the lesson.
Today's Exit Ticket asks students to find the inverse of the linear function f(x) = 4x - 7.
Resources (1)
This Homework begins with a variety of linear and power functions. The students are asked to find the inverse for each one. The goal of this portion is to reinforce the skill learned in the lesson. The final two problems give the students a real life scenario involving two unknown quantities that are related. The students are asked to write a function for each variable and then explain how the functions relate to each other and to the graph.

If you like it, save it!
Save and organize all of the stuff you love in one place.Got it!
If you like something…
Click the heart, it's called favoriting. Favorite the stuff you like.Got it!
Author Notes: I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream! I used Merrill's The Best Lime Ice Cream as a jumping-off point. The Maple-Sage Sugared Walnuts are adapted from the recipe for Maple Sugared Pecans in the cookbook In the Sweet Kitchen by Regan Daley, one of my favorite cookbooks. —mrslarkin
Food52 Review: Mrslarkin's easy ice cream recipe elegantly highlights the beauty of sage-walnut-maple combo.The sage is no shrinking violet in this silky ice cream that contrasts beautifully with the crunchy, caramelized walnuts. Indeed, we do all scream for ice cream. —Food52
Makes: about 3 cups of ice cream
For the Maple-Sage Sugared Walnuts
cup raw walnuts, halves and pieces
tablespoon chopped fresh sage
tablespoon egg white
tablespoons maple syrup
tablespoon light brown sugar
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Prepare a parchment-lined cookie sheet. Place walnuts and chopped sage in a small mixing bowl. Mix egg white and maple syrup in a small cup. Add to walnuts and stir well. Sprinkle the brown sugar over and toss to coat nuts completely. Spill walnuts onto cookie sheet, and spread out in one layer.
- Bake for 15 - 20 minutes, stirring a few times, until nuts are nicely toasted. Slide parchment off of hot cookie sheet onto a cooling rack and cool completely. Store in an airtight container.
For the Maple Sage Ice Cream
cups heavy cream
dozen fresh sage leaves
cup maple syrup
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, place cream and sage leaves. Using a muddler or a wooden spoon, muddle the leaves now and then as the cream heats. Do not boil. When mixture starts to steam, stir in maple syrup. Remove from heat and let cool completely. Chill in fridge for several hours or overnight.
- Using a slotted spoon, remove the sage leaves from the cream.
- Pour cream into an ice cream maker and freeze according to manufacturer's instructions. Remove to a freezable container to harden some more.
- To serve, scoop ice cream into bowls, layering the sugared walnuts throughout, or just scattering the nuts on top of the ice cream. If desired, a drizzle of maple syrup tastes pretty yummy, too!

Two new foam formulations
Precision Laboratories has formulated two new marking foams to be used for the two basic types of marking equipment used on ag sprayers.
Enduron PAI drops more foam at higher operating pressures and application speeds in pressurized systems. Enduron XC is used at lower operating pressures that are commonly found in expansion chamber systems. The company claims that both formulations are heat and wind resistant and will last up to 50% longer than competitive marking foams. Contact Precision Laboratories Inc., Dept. FIN, Box 127, Northbrook, IL 60065, 800/323-6280 or circle 195.
Redesigned field marker control
An updated MarkerMaster now replaces a field disk marker's hydraulic lever system to make marking easier and to reduce operator stress.
Now each button on the control box has a unique shape, and a simple push of a button gets field markers started. The small control box mounts anywhere in the tractor cab with either screws or Velcro. A manifold replaces a sequencing valve; no extra outlet is needed. Included with the control box is an electronic remote control, hydraulic manifold, hardware and fittings, weather-sealed wiring harness and installation and operating instructions. Price for a full installation kit: $985. The control box only is $235, and an extension wire harness for use with a tow-between seed tank is $55. Contact Centrack Controls Inc., Dept. FIN, Box 1722, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada S7K 3S1, 306/653-0405, www.centrack.ca or circle 198.
Easy way to move hopper
The PowerSwing mover is a hydraulically driven swing-hopper mover that, when installed on Westfield's MK swing hopper, helps you locate the hopper exactly where you want it, regardless of terrain.
A hydraulic lever located over the auger controls the hydraulic oil flow to turn the PowerSwing wheel. It can be easily operated when the hopper is under the unloading truck. The mover is available in three sizes: 8, 10 and 13 in. Price: $671 for the 13-in. model. Contact Westfield Industries, Dept. FIN, Box 39, Rosenort, Manitoba, Canada R0G 1W0, 204/ 746-2396, www.grainaugers.com or circle 197.
Big mid-size bin
MFS/York/Stormor adds a new mid-size bin to its commercial grain storage line.
The bin comes with a diameter of 78 ft. and a storage capacity of up to 370,000 bu. It works well when extra capacity is needed but ground space is limited. Side walls available are up to 85 ft. 4 in., and overall height is approximately 110 ft. The bin comes with either inside or outside stiffeners, and side discharge is optional. Contact Global Industries Inc., Dept. FIN, 2928 E. Hwy. 30, Grand Island, NE 68801, 308/384-9320 or circle 196.
Guard sorghum, wheat
Syngenta's insecticide seed treatment Adage is now ready to fight barley yellow dwarf virus in early-season wheat, and greenbugs, cinch bugs, aphids and other insects in sorghum.
Adage is one of a new family of chemicals called neonicotinoids, and the company considers it to be a significant replacement for the organophosphates. The seed treatment protects seed and young seedlings and is translocated throughout the plant. It affects target pests by contact and stomach activity. Once absorbed, the active ingredient blocks the transmission of the insect's feeding impulses.
In university and company field trials, the systemic provided 30 to 45 days of residual activity for early-season greenbug protection in sorghum. In wheat trials, Adage outyielded check plots by nearly 10 bu./acre. Contact Syngenta Crop Protection Inc., Dept. FIN, Box 18300, Greensboro, NC 27409, 336/632-6000, www.syngenta.com or circle 199.
Shield out gene-laden pollen
A new discovery may ensure that your non-genetically modified (GM) corn crop keeps its genetic integrity, if you are selling to an elevator buying non-GM corn.
A scientist with the University of Wisconsin-Madison found a molecular barrier (in teosinte, a wild cousin of maize) that, when bred into modern hybrid corn, is capable of completely locking out foreign genes including those from GM corn.
The molecular barrier is available as breeding stock and will soon be in commercial seed.

Fear-learning deficits in subjects with fibromyalgia syndrome?
– Source: European Journal of Pain, March 7, 2013
By J. Jenewein, et al.
BACKGROUND: Fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) is frequently associated with psychiatric conditions, particularly anxiety. Deficits in contingency learning during fear conditioning have been hypothesized to increase anxiety and, consequently, pain sensation in susceptible individuals. The goal of this study was to examine the relationship between contingency learning and pain experience in subjects with FMS and rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
METHODS: Fourteen female FMS subjects, 14 age-matched female RA subjects and 14 age-matched female healthy controls (HCs) were included in a fear-conditioning experiment. The conditioned stimulus (CS) consisted of visual signs, the unconditioned stimulus (US) of thermal stimuli. CS- predicted low-temperature exposure (US), while CS+ was followed by low or high temperature.
RESULTS: In the FMS group, only 50% of the subjects were aware of the US-CS contingency, whereas 86% of the RA subjects and all of the HCs were aware of the contingency. CS+ induced more anxiety than CS- in RA subjects and HCs. As expected, low-temperature exposure was experienced as less painful after CS- than after CS+ in these subjects. FMS subjects did not show such adaptive conditioning. The effects of the type of CS on heart rate changes were significant in the HCs and the aware FMS subjects, but not in the unaware FMS subjects.
CONCLUSIONS: Contingency learning deficits represent a potentially promising and specific, but largely unstudied, psychopathological factor in FMS. Deficits in contingency learning may increase anxiety and, consequently, pain sensation. These findings have the potential to contribute to the development of novel therapeutic approaches for FMS.

NEW ORLEANS — A businessman pleaded guilty Wednesday to plotting to bribe an unidentified former New Orleans public official in a case that appears to be linked to a federal probe of former Mayor Ray Nagin.
Rodney Williams, who was president of Three Fold Consultants LLC, made $72,250 in payoffs to the unidentified official for his help in securing city contracts for architectural, engineering and services work, according to a court filing accompanying his guilty plea.
Williams made the first payoff in January 2008 in the form of three checks that totaled $60,000 and were made payable to a granite installation company operated by the official, the filing says.
Court records don't name the city official, but his tenure matches Nagin's two terms in office. Also, Nagin and his two sons owned a granite installation company that had a contract to install countertops for local Home Depot stores after Hurricane Katrina struck in 2005.
Nagin has not been charged. His attorney, Robert Jenkins, didn't immediately respond to a call seeking comment.
Ralph Capitelli, one of Williams' attorneys, wouldn't name "Public Official A" listed in court papers.
"It would be the worst investigative reporter on the planet who couldn't figure out who 'Public Official A' is," Capitelli told reporters after the hearing.
Williams, 47, isn't the first person to admit guilt in the probe. Businessman Frank Fradella pleaded guilty in June to making a $50,000 payoff to an unidentified former city official whose tenure also matched Nagin's. Prosecutors said Fradella provided truckloads of free granite to the official.
In February, people with direct knowledge said federal authorities were investigating questions about free trips and gratuities that Nagin allegedly accepted while in office. They spoke on condition of anonymity because they could not publicly comment on an ongoing investigation.
The conspiracy charge to which Williams pleaded guilty carries a maximum sentence of five years in prison, but his plea agreement calls for a prison sentence ranging from 30 to 37 months. His sentencing is set for March 27. Williams can withdraw his guilty plea if U.S. District Judge Susie Morgan sentences him to more than 37 months.
Williams didn't respond to reporters' questions as he left the courthouse. Capitelli said his client "fully accepts responsibility for what he did" and is cooperating with federal authorities.
Williams received a "large number" of city contracts after the unnamed official approved him as a vendor for the city's public works department in 2008, according to Wednesday's court filing. After one of those contracts was awarded to Three Fold in July 2009, Williams delivered a $10,000 cash payoff to "close family members" of the official, the filing says.
To disguise the payments, the official allegedly provided Williams with ownership documents in his granite installation company. The documents made it appear the official sold a partial interest in his company to a company that Williams partially owned but wasn't created until after the $60,000 payoff in January 2008.

The Long Realty Short Sale Resource Center provides you helpful information on short sales, the short sale process and how to search for short sale properties. Articles are provided by the Long Realty Short Sale Resource Group, a collaboration of Long Realty agents and managers with an expansive knowledge of short sales.
What's Happening in the Short Sale Market
One of the most asked questions by sellers investigating their alternatives to foreclosure is "Are creditors approving short sales? I have heard they are impossible to accomplish." Although a short sale is certainly more difficult to bring to a successful conclusion than a traditional real estate transaction, with the combination of an experienced, knowledgeable real estate professional listing and marketing the property, a cooperative seller, and a willing, able, and committed buyer, they can be accomplished.
Through October 14, there have been 1,135 successfully closed short sale transactions recorded in the Tucson Multiple Listing Service in 2011. This constitutes just over 10% of all closed sale transactions reported for 2011. As of the same date, there were 832 active properties listed as short sales and 1004 properties with a purchase agreement accepted by sellers awaiting either lender approval or final closing of the transaction. Clearly, short sales can be accomplished.
During the months of January through May of this year, short sale closings were fairly consistent with a low of 102 closings in March and a high of 111 closings in April. June closings jumped to 124 closed sales and have risen every month since, with September recording 163 closed sales. The average sale price of a short sale this year is $153,249 and the median price $124,000, both consistent with the overall market sales numbers. The lowest price recorded this year is $20,000 and the highest $1,255,000. Days on market (from listing until offer received) are 118, which is approximately 50% longer than the market average.
What conclusion can be drawn from this information? First, short sales are being completed in our market. Second, the prices that short sales are getting are in line with the market average and if presented properly, should be looked upon favorably by a creditor willing to work with a seller attempting to prevent foreclosure. Third, the short sale alternative to foreclosure is prevalent in all pricing segments of our market.
If you or someone you know is investigating alternatives to foreclosure, it would be worthwhile to include the short sale option as one of the avenues to investigate. Be certain that you choose a real estate professional experienced and knowledgeable in the short sale process to give you the best advice and represent you if you pursue this option.
