Nearly 90 businesses are looking to open facilities in Gilbert, representing a potential 7,524 new jobs for the town and $725 million in potential capital investment.
Dan Henderson, Gilbert's business development manager, told a group of people at a Gilbert Chamber of Commerce luncheon on Wednesday that out of about 200 companies expressing some form of interest in Gilbert during the second quarter, 73 are beyond the point of an initial inquiry and are in some way moving forward on plans to open facilities.
Altogether, there are 87 active prospects the town is working on, including 12 companies from the life and biological sciences sector, 10 from the advanced business services sector, four from the high-tech industry, 11 from the clean and renewable energies industry and four from the aerospace industry.
"I think it's a very positive sign," said Kathy Tilque, president and CEO of the Gilbert chamber, who attended the luncheon.
She cautioned, however, that some of those figures could include small businesses or startup companies.
But Henderson said several prospects would require footprints of more than 100,000 square feet of space. Altogether, seven would occupy 100,000 to 200,000 square feet of office space, and 10 could occupy 100,000 to 200,000 of industrial space. Eight firms could occupy more than 200,000 square feet of industrial space.
Henderson's presentation hit other high notes in the town and region.
For example, Gilbert has one of the highest median household incomes at $86,380 a year according figures collected last year. That beat Scottsdale's $68,189.
Chandler's median household income was $71,287, and Mesa had $52,838.
He said advanced business services companies, one of the town's target industry sectors, had about 243,000 people with advanced business degrees to pick from in the municipal statistical area, which is essentially Maricopa County. About 150,000, or 80 percent, of those are within a 45-minute commute, and 51 percent reside in the East Valley alone.
"That's a pretty compelling number when you're talking (to a company)," he said.
About 70 percent of the science and engineering work force in Maricopa County resides in the East Valley - an attractive point for companies in the aerospace, aviation and defense industry, which is another of the town's target sectors.
"No wonder Maricopa County is the eighth-largest aerospace market in the United States," he said.
Henderson added that 45 percent of the region's 140,000-strong biological and life sciences work force is in the East Valley, as well as 53 percent of the region's high-tech work force.

One Truth
You say: evasive,
It won't hold water,
A sieve vs. vase
vis-à-vis I've saved
all the best truths
for this (the truth) a
nightlong longing for
a night of lying
with you. I do the
next best thing: a glance
(glancing) (it contains
all I want to contain)
Forgive the shy, the away. If
truth be told, I can't be true.

The toy car that ran using hydrogen fuel. It was never scaled up and driven.

Beginning Saturday, Oct. 6, the University Art Museum (UAM) will present Sound Oasis, a three-dimensional audio environment on the CSULB campus quad featuring 11 soundscapes by leading sound artists from around the globe. Sound Oasis will play daily from 10 a.m.-9 p.m. The opening event on Oct. 6 begins at 6 p.m. and includes a personal appearance by Martyn Ware from the Illustrious Company, who will spin a DJ set from 9-10 p.m.
Ware, who as a record producer and artist (Heaven 17 and Human League) has been featured on recordings totaling more than 50 million sales worldwide during a 30-year career. He founded Illustrious Company with Vince Clarke in 2001 to exploit the creative and commercial possibilities of their unique 3-D Audioscape immersive surround-sound technology and custom-made musical composition in collaboration with fine artists, the performing arts, corporate clients and academic institutions around the world.
On Monday, Oct. 8, at 5:30 p.m., there will be a panel discussion with Sound Oasis Project Director Francisca Rivero-Lake and participating artists in the Gerald R. Daniel Recital Hall. The event is free to the public.
Sound Oasis, which runs through Saturday, Oct. 13, will transform the campus quad into an immersive soundscape merging electronic compositions into the outdoor environment – dimensions of space, duration, and perception are explored, manipulating and melding the sounds of urban existence.
The infrastructure of Sound Oasis consists of a series of speakers placed throughout the quad according to the audio diffusion design of Illustrious Company. Visitors entering the space can re-evaluate the sound environment around them. The audio exhibition encourages people to experience art without visual traces, heightening sensory perception.
The Sound Oasis installation includes descriptive boards placed in the quad with information on the artists involved in the project written in English and Spanish.
Artists included in Sound Oasis are 'Gal*in_dog' aka Guillermo Galindo, Manuel Rocha Iturbide, Luz Maria Sánchez, Rogelio Sosa and Mario de Vega, Mexico; Illustrious Company – Ware and Clarke – and Chris Watson, United Kingdom; Slavek Kwi, Czech Republic /Ireland; Merzbow, Japan; Ultra-red, United States/Mexico; and radioqualia, New Zealand. Sound Oasis curators are Jose Wolffer and Manuel Rocha Iturbide, Mexico; and Andrew Caleya Chetty, United Kingdom. For more information on the artists involved and the installation in Mexico City, visit the Sound Oasis Web site.
Docent led tours are available in both English and Spanish beginning Oct. 8. Tour guides can be met on the quad in front of Building FA-4 on the following days and times: English ─ Oct. 8-10 and Oct. 12, noon and 6 p.m.; and Oct. 13, 2 p.m.; Spanish ─ Oct. 11, noon and 6 p.m.


text: Dear Ones, Do you struggle with being disciplined? For me it is easy at times and challenging at times. As the energies of the planet continue to shift and speed up, I am aware of a need for more discipline in my life. For me discipline provides a framework through which all other energies can flow. When the framework is too rigid, the flow becomes stagnant. When the framework is too loose, the flow becomes aimless and undirected. Here is my secret: In writing these newsletters, I often focus on the Law that relates to an energy I most need to strengthen for myself in relation to what is going on in my life at the time. So this week we will examine the Universal Law of Discipline. And just so you know, I am experiencing a huge shift even as I write this; I hope that you do too. Aligning with the Universal Law of Discipline The Universal Law of Discipline states that practicing discipline is one of the most expansive activities that we can engage in. Long-term discipline requires commitment which serves as a sturdy bridge between our present abilities and our goals. Through acts of discipline, we enhance our skill level and knowledge in a given area, thus creating more options in life. We therefore receive greater freedom and independence when we practice discipline over time. The Light Language grid pictured above is designed to support us in discovering the freedom of discipline. Often we experience resistance when we first begin practicing a new discipline. Sometimes the resistance is so great that we quit before we even give it a chance. We give up before we get into the zone of liberation that comes with continued practice. I encourage you to print out the Light Language grid pictured above and look at it whenever you experience resistance to your chosen discipline. Allow the vibrations of the shapes and colors to activate this energy within you. If possible, put the grid on the floor and sit with it under your feet so that you may better walk your talk--the ultimate discipline. Just do it! You will be glad you did. |

Unknown Greek, Athens, about 320 B.C. Marble 52 x 29 x 6 3/4 in. 77.AA.89
A deceased woman, identified as Sime by the inscription carved on the lintel above her, sits amid her family on this Athenian grave stele or tombstone. She sits on a chair with her feet on a footstool, while her husband approaches and shakes hands with her. Another woman and a young man, presumably her children, watch the scene from the background. The handshake was a popular symbolic gesture on Classical Greek gravestones, representing family unity even after death. In the background, the standing daughter reaches forward and touches the father's chin in another common funerary gesture. The stele is carved in the shape of a naiskos or small funerary building. This kind of stele was one of the main types of funerary monuments in Athens in the later 300s B.C.

The Raptors were looking to end a three game losing streak and add to the Pacers' recent woes in the process. They succeeded with little resistance on Friday night.
James Johnson started the game with a hot hand to jump start the Raptors and spark what was a small but energetic crowd of 14 726. The Raps jumped on the Pacers early with a 10-0 first quarter run, and lit up Indiana for 32 in that first quarter.
Toronto continued to build a lead in the second quarter, as Reggie Evans continued to grab every rebound and loose ball in his path and Leandro Barbosa exploded for 18 first half points. On the other side, the only Pacers making any kind of impact were Danny Granger and Tyler Hansbrough. The Raptors found themselves up 14 after putting up 60 points in one of their more impressive first halves of the season.
The Raps got a little sloppy to start the second half, the pace of the game slowed down considerably and the Pacers made their move with Darren Collison taking over in the third quarter. But as was the case at various points in this game, the Raptors bent, but never broke, and were able to sustain a double digit lead heading into the fourth quarter.
Despite getting into early foul trouble in the fourth and seeing the lead dwindle to as little as six, the Raptors hung on for win no. 18. The entire game seemed like the Raptors were on the cusp of blowing the doors off, but never could. In the end though, they were always able to quickly stop a Pacers run and keep a comfortable lead throughout.
The main factors in tonight's victory were Toronto's advantage on the glass and another impressive performance by the Raptors' bench. The Raps out-rebounded the Pacers 46-34, and saw their reserves outscore the Pacers' bench 46-26. No one was more effective off of the pine than Leandro Barbosa, as the Brazilian Blur enjoyed his best game as a Raptor, pouring in 29 points in 26 minutes.
Reggie Evans and Ed Davis combined to pull down 29 rebounds, with Davis finishing with a double-double.
James Johnson finished with another solid looking, balanced stat-line in 25 minutes, DeMar DeRozan finished with 16 points on 13 field goal attempts and Jose Calderon put up 13 points and eight assists while committing just one turnover.
It really was a complete team effort for the Raptors, as even Joey Dorsey, Sonny Weems and Jerryd Bayless provided quality minutes in the limited floor time they all saw.
Really, the only Raptor who seemed to be labouring through this game was Andrea Bargnani, and that's likely due to the fact that he is still said to be recovering from the flu. I hope that's all it was for Andrea, because he seemed a step slow on every possession tonight.
The game even ended with a bit of drama for those who stayed in their seats. Leandro Barbosa tried to convert a layup with the game out of reach and the shot clock turned off in the dying seconds. Granger and Hansbrough seemed to take exception with this, and looked to be talking trash until Reggie Evans came over and sent them away with their tails between their legs.
Raptors Player of the Game: Leandro Barbosa – 26 Min, 29 Pts, 12-21 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT, 3 Reb, 2 Ast, 1 Stl
Pacers Player of the Game: Danny Granger – 36 Min, 25 Pts, 7-17 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 8-8 FT, 7 Reb, 1 Ast, 2 Stl
Goat of the Game: Roy Hibbert – 21 Min, 4 Pts, 2-5 FG, 0-1 FT, 3 Reb, 1 Ast, 2 TO, 5 PF

Library Ladder Options
Alaco Library Ladders are offered in two basic designs: Straight, for use in most applications, or Bent, when needed to clear bookshelves, desks, cabinets or other room elements.
Alaco also makes a freestanding Library Ladder, with a standing platform and special handrails. Ideal for shorter bookshelves and cabinets.
Each Alaco Library Ladder is custom built from the wide selection of options, guaranteeing that it will be just right for its application.
Ladder Material: Loft Ladders may be made from a selection of quality hardwoods or aluminum.
Wood Loft Ladders are available in: Alder, Birch, Cherry, Mahogany, Maple, Red Oak, White Oak or Walnut. Other woods may be available on request. Wood Loft Ladders may be unfinished, have a clear gloss or satin finish or be colored with a Minwax stain.
Alaco Aluminum Loft Ladders are available with a standard milled aluminum finish or with a matte or gloss black or white finish, a metallic beige finish or a colored powdercoat finish.
Hardware Finishes: All hardware on Alaco Loft Ladders is finished. Depending on the specifications for each ladder, this includes the upper roller assembly, wheel housing, mounting brackets, braces, bolts and handrails and metal track. A wide variety of metallic and enamel finishes means that the hardware on an Alaco Library Ladder can blend in with the ladder or stand out as an decorative accent.
Handrails: Handrails are not standard on Library Ladders, but can be added. Select handrails that are flush to the sides of the ladder, or handrails that extend beyond the ladder top for added security. Handrails may be added to either the right or left side of the ladder, or to both sides.
Safety Tread: For extra safety, a rubber no-slip tread can be added to all steps of a Wood Library Ladder.
Wheel Housing: If your ladder is a Wood Rolling Library Ladder, the wheel housing options are a cast sunburst pattern for an elegant traditional look, or a contemporary assembly with an exposed wheel. All Aluminum Rolling Library Ladders have the contemporary wheel assembly.
Upper Assemblies and Brackets: Rolling Library Ladders designed to remain permanently affixed to the track come with a Roller Assembly. This Roller Assembly will also allow a Library Ladder to be folded in vertically when not in use.
For Rolling Library Ladders that can be removed from the track, a Hook Assembly is required. The kind of brackets used to attach the ladder track to the wall will be, in part, determined by the selection of a Roller Assembly or a Hook Assembly.
Track: Track systems for Rolling Library Ladders can be designed for either a single wall or created with curved corners, allowing the Rolling Library Ladder to be moved around the room from one wall to another. The detailed online Library Ladder Estimate/Order Form [ link to form from here ] contains more information on specifying track layouts, and any of Alaco's knowledgeable staff will be happy to assist or answer any question you might have.
For questions, more information about, or assistance with Alaco Library Ladders, please contact Alaco at 888-310-7040 or by email.

The one Nexus-style smartphone that's even bigger than the N6 is getting its Android 5.0 update today. At least a few owners of Sony's Z Ultra (nee Xperia) Google Play Edition are getting over-the-air updates to Lollipop, as evidenced by this XDA thread. Conveniently, one of those fine folks has found the link to OTA ZIP file, so you can download and flash it manually to your own phone if you don't want to wait for the rollout.
Google officially pulled the HTC One M7, Galaxy S4, Xperia Z Ultra, and LG G Pad 8.3 Google Play Edition devices from the Play Store not too long ago. Since then we've seen a couple of them pop up on sale across various distributors. When an eBay seller offered the Galaxy S4 for $499 ($150 off) last month, we considered that a deal. Before that, Expansys USA offered the Z Ultra for the low price of $349, $100 less than what Google last asked for it.
Outside of Google, it looks like Sony is the first company to start pushing 4.4.4 to its devices, beginning with the Z1, Z1 Compact, and Z Ultra. While it's only a very minor update, it still says something about Sony's drive to push timely updates that it's the first to get 4.4.4 out the door to consumer devices.
Included in this software
There are many improvements in this upgrade for your Xperia™ smartphone, some examples are:
- Android 4.4.4 including the latest enhancements and security updates from Google
- Updated and improved camera experience
- Improvements when using Google voice, Contacts, Music streaming and Google+
- The latest versions of our Sony apps for you to enjoy
- All of our latest bug fixes, optimisations & improvements
The update is currently only rolling out in Europe, but it will likely follow in other regions fairly soon.
The Xperia Z Ultra is an odd proposal from a hardware perspective. The huge 6.4" 1080p screen, Snapdragon 800 processor, and 2GB of RAM say "high end," while the 8MP rear camera lacking a flash seems a bit down-market. Perhaps that has something to do with possibly tepid sales at the phone's $679 price point... and also Sony's decision to lower it. XperiaBlog reports that the price for the phone has been dropped to $449.99.
Sony has been doing an admirable job keeping its Android hardware on the latest releases, and today they're bringing KitKat to three of the newest phones in their lineup. The flagship Xperia Z1, the slightly smaller Xperia Z1 Compact, and the super-sized Xperia Z Ultra all get an Android 4.4 upgrade starting now, according to this Sony Mobile blog post.
We haven't actually seen any updated devices from tipsters, and Sony makes the usual disclaimer that the rollout may vary by location and carrier.
Fitbit's Android app is useless without a matching fitness device to pair it with, but buying one without having a phone that supports it means having to rely on your computer for synching. That's less than desirable, so it's a good thing that the company is steadily working to expand the number of Android phones its products will support. Following the latest update to the Fitbit app, Moto G owners can now sync their handset up to a Fitbit accessory.
Sony hardware fans, you've now got at least two more options when it comes to Android-based software. The current Sony flagship, the Xperia Z1, is now officially supported by the CyanogenMod ROM. The first CM 11 (Android 4.4) nightly build was posted to the CyanogenMod download page last night. There's also a new version of CM 11 built specifically for the Xperia Z Ultra Google Play Edition, the AOSP version of Sony's monster phablet on sale in the Play Store.

It's a week and a day till the 5K and I've made some progress. Mainly
in recruiting my son to join me. He's none too pleased, but he owes me.
I've cheered him on in his various endeavors since he was four, and now my misery needs company.
My daughter gets to skip the madness. She has a soccer game, and even more importantly, team pictures immediately following it. It's fine by me—she's a fast little bugger, and upon further contemplation, I think I
would have had difficulties keeping up with her. I'm more confident that my one-speed son will be a better pace-setter for me.
My husband, who has the nerve to call me prickly at times, dared to
ask me about my training regimen last week. My defenses were up as he's managed to run two miles every-other day since I've known him. I told him things had stalled. I reminded him I'd gotten food poisoning on Easter and took days to recover.
"Before that. How was it going?"
"Well, you know, my knees really started acting up on me when I ran that week."
"What week?"
"That first week."
"You haven't run since?"
"I listen to my knees."
That's when he uttered one of his favorite BUSINESS sayings, "When you're explaining, you're losing" and I got all prickly and perhaps closed a door a bit too forcefully. And opened it again and reminded him that it's a FUN WALK/RUN and not a race that I'm being timed in, so I'm not worried about losing anyway. Whatever. Did I mention I signed my son up?
So, this week, with my knees sufficiently recovered from my brief training five weeks ago and my stomach recovered from some bad shrimp at Easter, I've been hitting the pavement again. I can happily report that my legs now outlast my lungs, but barely.
If the course is all down-hill, I'll be fine. If it's all flat, I'll be in trouble after, oh, I can't say exactly, but I estimate it'll be early on. If it's anything like the terrain I've been running, it'll be an ugly, ugly morning. But that's why I'll have my son. Cause if my friend blows past me (and I suspect she will—she's been training like mad and can run for a solid 10 minutes without a break), I've got my dear 10-year-old son for whom I must honorably slow my pace.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

I have an older Snapper rear engine rider. Model is 281013BE.
I have the cutting height set at the highest setting, but it still cuts much too low. It leaves the grass about 1 inch high. I have adjusted the rear lift bracket with the spacers but it still cuts too high. I'm destroying my lawn. Any ideas? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Make sure your tires are propery inflated. |
Checked tires. They're ok. |
Raise the rear of the deck by shorting the support chains, hooking in different links. Level by removing the deck cover and adjusting the linkage under there. Walt Conner |
I have the rear deck spacers on the wires at the highest level already. What linkage allows me to adjust the forward deck height? I didn't see anything to adjust when I had the machine standing up. |
Well you don't really have one of the "older machines" apparently. Walt Conner |
***"I have the rear deck spacers on the wires at the highest level already."*** Does that mean you have moved all the spacer ferrules to the bottom side of the rear lift arm? Moving the ferrules from the top side of the lift arm to the bottom side will leave you with a taller cut of grass. moving the ferrules to the top will get your grass cut shorter. Just to make sure you are doing it the right way. |
Yup, I have all the discs on the *bottom*. |
You may be experiencing the effects of "cumulative wear" at several places on the machine conspiring to lower the main frame and the cutting deck height adjustment parameters. The main frame tube (front section) slides and pivots on a plastic bushing (Snapper part # 2-2509). Excessive wear to this bushing will effectively lower the overall aspect of the frame operating height, and that will lower the cutting deck height despite moving the deck cable ferrules. The rear lift arm has plastic bushings (Snapper part # 2-2112) in place where the lift arm pivot stub shafts mate to the left and right support rails. Excessive wear to the bushings and/or the stub shafts and/or the holes in the support rails will result in the cutting deck height being lower despite moving the deck cable ferrules. Any wear in the deck cables (Snapper part # 2-6274) top end heads and/or the main frame pockets that the cable heads stop against..........will result in the deck cutting height being lowered. Have you gone to the Snapper website and down loaded a copy of the Illustrated Parts List for this machine? If not, do so and you can see all the parts mentioned. Choose the middle IPL (of 3 offers) to get the chassis parts manual. The other 2 offers are for engine and accessory items. |
Thank you for the explanation. Sounds like that could be my problem. I've currently got a jerry-rigged system where I use a short piece of metal as a chock under the height adjustment lever so it is well beyond the top setting. That effectively raises the deck to a usable height. However, should I be concerned that this will stress/break other parts? |
I actually doubt your rig will add any more stress to the parts..........but I can't see what you are doing with that piece of metal (it's too far away from me). If you are merely adding some thickness (shim) to the same point that normally carries the load of deck suspension I doubt you will suffer worse damage. |

Travis Pastrana fractures foot, ankle
Travis Pastrana Hurt in Best Trick
Action sports star Travis Pastrana crashed on back-to-back "TP Roll" attempts Thursday night in X Games 17 Moto X Best Trick, ending the Pastranathon during its first event.
Pastrana, who was taken off on a stretcher and transported to a hospital for X-rays, broke his right foot and ankle, according to medical officials working with ESPN. He was discharged from the hospital Thursday night. The injury will require surgery at a later date.
Pastrana's planned NASCAR debut Saturday will be put on hold. He is also out of the X Games.
"I am sorry this happened and will be back in action as soon as I can. I look forward to Pastranathon 2012 at X Games 18," Pastrana told ESPN following his release from the hospital.
Going into the X Games, Pastrana had planned to compete in Best Trick and Freestyle on Thursday and Friday, fly to Indianapolis to make his NASCAR Nationwide debut Saturday, then return to Los Angeles to compete in RallyCross on Sunday. X Games 17 will be the first X event since 2002 that Pastrana has been out of medal contention.
Pastrana crashed while attempting the corked 720 that had made him a gold-medal favorite in Best Trick. Riders usually get one shot each round at throwing tricks, but Pastrana tried the 720 twice after under-rotating the first time. His second attempt ended in identical fashion and he immediately grabbed his lower leg as medical staff rushed to his side on the landing ramp.
Pastrana's trainer, Todd Jacobs, said Pastrana will have surgery in Maryland on his foot, ankle and hand. He already had ligament damage in the hand from practice.
"No one is more disappointed than Travis," Jacobs said. "He feels like he let everyone down and hopes everyone knows how hard he worked for this."

It's not often that you meet a life size polar bear on your way into work but that is what greeted staff at Cairn Energy in Edinburgh this morning. The Scottish oil and explorer is being targeted by Greenpeace as part of an ongoing campaign to stop the company from exploring in the waters of the Arctic off Greenland.
Several activists – along with the bear – blockaded the entrance to Cairn's office. Earlier in the day, Geenpeace along with other environment organisations WWF and Friends of the Earth wrote to Sir Bill Gammell, Cairn's CEO, demanding he publishes the company's emergency response plan to any incident or accident in the Arctic. Activists from the group scaled one of the rigs Cairn was using last year in Greenland and managed to stop work there for a bit.
Cairn, which is preparing to drill four wells in the Arctic this summer for around $600m, has insisted that safety is a key part of its drilling campaign but environmentalists are worried in particular after last year's BP spill in the Gulf of Mexico.
The Arctic – with its pristine environment but also wealth of oil and gas reserves (the US Geological Survey estimates that the Arctic as a whole – which is much bigger than just the area around Greenland – could hold 90bn barrels of oil and gas, the equivalent of three times the proved reserves of the US) – is polarising opinion among stakeholders in the industry.
With some of the world's largest oil companies including ExxonMobil having won exploration licences off Greenland's shores recently, we can expect to see more of Greenpeace.

Wednesday's ruling from the National Labor Review Board granting Northwestern University football players the right to form a union as employees may be the biggest sports story of the new Millennium. ESPN legal analyst Lester Munson called it a "a historic first step in a process that, together with litigation against the NCAA and legislation in Congress, could change the face of college sports." The Nation's Dave Zirin wrote "the established order in the sports world has been shaken to its foundation."
If there is an analog to the NLRB decision in baseball history, it comes in 1976, when MLB arbitrator Peter Seitz granted free agent status to pitchers Andy Messersmith and Dave McNally. This was the final blow struck to defeat the reserve clause. The ruling left every major league player yet to sign a contract in 1976 eligible for free agency by the end of the season; those who had signed could be reserved one final time in 1977 before becoming free agents. Essentially, the whole league hit the free market at once, the exact kind of chaotic situation necessary to force real change.

Hi My house has been on the market for about 12 weeks. We have had 2 open houses, and plenty of private walkthroughs (usually 3 - 4 a week). But yesterday we finally got our first offer. I have only owned the home for 4 years, when I bought the house it was listed at 119k and I bought it for 109k (it had been on the market for over a year before I bought it). When I first had the house appraised, my real estate agent told me the highest we could market the house was for 112k. I had the house listed at that price, and even though we were getting a steady stream of viewings, after only 3 weeks the real estate agent pushed me to dropping my asking price down to 106k. My conern is that the 1st and only offer I have received so far is for 99.5k (CASH). I really need to get out of the house by the end of May as I have already accepted a new job in a different state. But at that price the seller is offering, theres no way I would make enough money to even pay off the mortgage. I'm not trying to make a quick buck or get rich off the sale of my house - I just want to get back atleast enough money to pay off the mortgage. I asked my real estate agent what I should do for a counter offer, and she suggested maybe going up another 1 or 2 thousand, and even hinted at just taking the offer as it stands. But that doesn't really help me. I went ahead and sent a counter-offer today that is a bare minimum of what I can accept. Actually I would still have to pay some out of pocket money to the lien holder, but wouldn't be breaking the bank. I'm interested in seeing what others thoughts are, what you would do in my situation? If the buyer doesn't accept my offer, should I just let him go and pray I get a better offer soon or just suck it up and take what I can get. Heres some more details about my situation: I have made some significant improvements to the home since I moved, but didn't seem to impact the appraisal too much. Added a large deck in the back yard, put in a brand new central ac and heater. painted the interior, fixed plumbing, etc.. So whats your thoughts, take the little money I can get and run, or wait to see if offers improve come spring / summer when schools let out? |

Ask your agent for a list of the sold comps in your neighborhood. I'd want to see the detail behind how she came up with the price. It's hard to tell whether your agent is in the "price 'em cheap and get 'em sold" camp or is a good advisor of true market value. The way to tell is to look at the data. With that many showings and no offers, that seems to indicate it's priced too high. Ask to see what else has sold in your neighborhood in the 12 weeks you've been listed, and see what they sold for. Data, data, data. |
A REA making the offer is likely to low ball and know how to play the game. You need an agent who can likewise play and game and stand up for you, while getting the deal done for you (not chasing them away)... |
- Posted by ncrealestateguy (My Page) on Tue, Mar 26, 13 at 19:40
If you have to be sold by May, then you better make this deal work. It is almost May now. The buyers are expecting a counter offer. Come back at what makes you feel good. There is no reason this deal should not go to contract. Only you can decide what to do in your case. You have all the facts you need. |
- Posted by littlebug5 (My Page) on Tue, Mar 26, 13 at 21:36
Sounds to me like you are between a rock and a hard place, and the vultures (read - real estate agents) are circling. Not much you can do about it - if you HAVE to sell. |
- Posted by StellaMarie (My Page) on Wed, Mar 27, 13 at 12:30
Can you afford carrying costs if you can't sell by May? Can you afford those carrying costs plus taking a loss after May? If you can't sell it by May, can you rent it -- and, if so, do you want to be a landlord? (This may require using a management company if you are out of town, and you need to factor in costs of hiring out repairs while you have tenants and repairing whatever damage they might do.) I think things are starting to pick up in most places for spring, but keep in mind that getting from an offer to closing takes some time (even with a cash buyer). What is your market like overall? Is it getting steadily better year over year? Also, keep the costs of selling in the back of your mind when making these decisions; it's not just about making your lender(s) whole. What I did, in a *declining* market when I really wanted to sell and really, really didn't want to be a landlord, was to take a cash offer and make it work (I had to bring cash to the table for a portion of the agent's commission). Mine turns out to have been the right choice, because the value of the place kept declining, but that was in the (relatively) early days of the tailspin in a housing market that was hard hit. I have friends who are landlords and friends who waited to sell (and then took the loss). I think they're okay with that decision, too, either because they think the market will rebound and they're happy with their renters, or because they feel like they got the best price they could by waiting (not sure I agree, but am not about to point that out!). All that to say, I'm not sure there is a clearcut "right" answer, but I wanted to at least help by pointing you in the direction of some questions to ask yourself. :) I totally agree that the data matters and I stalk comps like no one's business, but, at the end of the day, the old adage is true: your house is worth what someone will pay for it. Good luck!!! |

How is the sequester/furlough going to affect your potential buyer base? |
Old adage goes: First offer is likely your best offer. In my experience, its 100% true. Counter at what you are happiest with. Then be prepared for a second counter at what you can live with. Then have a final third counter with what you absolutely can't surpass as your lowest offer. Keep in mind that most buyers expect "the game" to have a meet-in-the-middle outcome. That means if they offered $99K and you are at $106K, they REALLY expect to meet you at about $103K. You also need to figure in what your carrying costs are going to look like if you don't sell to these folks. Another 1-3 months of mortgage payments, utilities, etc. Plus the emotional angst of moving somewhere else and leaving your home unsold. You should also look at the value of being a "free agent" on your credit report by not having the mortgage debt when you go looking for a new place. All of these are personal factors, and you have decide if its worth $3-$5K in "emotional capital" to just get this thing off your back. At $100K, you are likely paying a 6% commission so that nets you only $94K, less whatever other costs you have to pay to close (legal, etc.) with the buyer. You also may be liable to pay taxes due for the past calendar year (again, depends on where you are located). At your price point "only" a $1-2K difference can be material as $1K=1% discount. Some REA's don't seem to get that. So get your pencil out and figure out your rock bottom. That's your line....don't go past it unless you absolutely have to and you've considered all factors. |

Sometimes you have to take a small hit to get out, depending on the situation. I've tried to sell a real dog of a house in a bad location. We were young and title V had just passed. We took a hit and accepted an offer. I've also been in another situation where I was in a different "place" financially. The realtor pushed for us to accept a REAL lowball offer, actually exclaiming she couldn't BeLIEvE we weren't even going to counter. A couple of weeks later we got our price. If you have to get out, work with the buyers. If you can afford another couple of months for Spring buyers, then stick to your guns. A buyer will come along. |
Tony2Toes, not necessarily is the first offer the best in our experience. We cold our condo last year but the first offer was a real lowball. We counter-offered close to our asking (which was very reasonable) and never heard from them again. They were just fishing for a desperate seller. We had 2 more offers after that in the first week that were much better, but we were competing with the few remaining brand new units in the complex, and the sales office offered them even better deals and so 2 buyers in a row reneged on their offers. Finally, we sold it after about a month - for a good price and exactly what we were expecting. So, first offer is not always best and sometimes cash buyers just want to get a bargain so they can flip the property. If you MUST sell, then take the offer or counter only a bit more - better to take a known loss and have the transaction done quickly (cash) but if you can afford to wait a bit, it is not *necessarily* going to be the best offer. Cash offers are usually lower, they figure the speed makes up for the price. |

Terrific Taco Salad
I'll only eat it "if I'm sleeping with the cook." I avoid most restaurants as well as food that comes out of a box or window. Hence, my wife cooks often. And each and every meal is designed to:
1. Taste great
2. Ward off overeating

This meal is no exception! Meet Terrific Taco Salad courtesy of Lea-Ann. Like it? Then share it and post a comment.
- 2 lbs Kosher, organic ground beef
- 3 cups mixed salad greens
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1/2 red onion, chopped
- handful of cherry tomatoes
- 1 14.5 oz can of organic diced tomatoes
- 3 oz tomato paste
- 1 avocado, skinned and cut into small chunks ( medium ripe is best, too ripe will just smush )
- 1/2 cilantro
- sour cream
- shredded medium cheddar cheese
- 1 packet Trader Joe's Taco Seasoning Mix
1. Brown beef in large skillet over medium heat.
2. While beef browns put your lettuce in a bowl.
3. On a platter arrange sliced bell pepper, onion, avocado, and cilantro.
4. In small ramekins, add shredded cheese and sour cream.
5. When meat is done browning, add packet of TJ's Taco Mix and stir well. Let cook for a couple more minutes.
6. Add the can of diced tomato to meat and stir. Simmer on low heat.
7. In a food processor blend tomato paste and cherry tomatoes. Add to meat mix.
8. Turn off heat and let sit for about 5 minutes to marry the flavors.

This bag is adorable and very well made. I live in NYC and it's a great cross body bag for cruising around the city. It's convenient to access the 2 main compartments and easy to zip closed. I also like that its relatively flat so it never gets in your way. It's not for those that carry a lot, it's pretty small. I love it.

Love this bag! The yellow is perfect, not too bright and not too neon. You can fit plenty in here, and the interior is darling. As always, Zappos' customer service and shipping speed can't be beat. It pays to be VIP! Want one of these bags in every color. Love you, Kate Spade.

My peach trees have had white cotton looking buds before the snow even melted. Now it looks like they turned brown and shrunk on some. One of my peach trees still has the swallen buds. I'm just wondering if they have frost dammage. The wierd thing is they changed from cotton to brown durring the warmer weather. I also have something going on on one of the trunks. Is this fire blight? Picture to come. First picture is of cotton looking buds. |

I sprayed black fruit wood spray on it last fall. It looked more like the bottom when I sprayed it. Then this spring I pealed off the bark some. |
Peaches don't get fire blight. But they do get bacterial canker. |
J...you covered a few subjects...Late freezes can damage fruit blossoms. Perhaps this is what happened to your early bloomers??? Also, the older/damaged tree may be giving up. Peach trees are NOT longlived trees. Fungal infections are definately a concern for peach growers, also. |
- Posted by Johnnysapples none (My Page) on Fri, Apr 19, 13 at 18:30
The trees were just planted last year. That is the tree trunk. I havent gone threw a budding stage with them since I bought them last spring with the leaves out already. I was looking at the buds again. I think they actualy went from one silver bud to a seperated silver bud. Then when looking at them I see the brown between what was one bud split into two now. Do they open up into two buds like a duck bill with his mouth open? I am worried about the freeze tonight. We are supposed to get down to 29 deg! Will that be bad at the stage they are in? |
Hmm. . . your tree does not look very healthy. It needed spray last spring, summer and fall and then again this spring. That trunk is in fairly bad shape. You might need a new tree. |

Hey guys,
So I've got a question here. When playing RtL, I find it nearly impossible to take out the liutenants at Copper level. The OL doggedly pursues us with them, and puts his horde of monsters out front with the Liutenant right next to the exit of the map. If we swath a path through the monsters and make a beeline for the liutenant he flees and we've obviously taken a few hits by that time.
So my quesiton is what are possible counters? And yes I know it ends in a Party Victory when the liutenant flees but a few coins when you've gone though the whole copper deck doesn't really get us much (and gets the OL a few valuable hits on our heroes). Any ideas/suggestions? Currently we're playing with the origianal campaign, RtL and Tomb of Ice. Nothing else is used.
Thanks for the help!

HI all, I need your help! I have a now 16 yr old step son. I met his mother 3.5 years ago. I have been living with him for 2.5 years. We just don't get a long at all anymore. IMO, he is very, very selfish and immature. He tells his mother to shut up, get away, leave, STOP, and constantly lies. We have caught him lieing about a lot of big topic issues. When at the table or out with friends/family/restaurant, his table manners are horrible. He chews with my mouth open, he makes a huge mess, covers his face with food and doesn't care about sharing food. We constantly correct his behavior verbally..for over a year...but his behavior hasn't really changed,. He will even lean over and just take others food of their plate without asking. All the above I find absolutely annoying and disrespectful. He wants everything done for him but doesn't do anything for anyone else. For example, at the table while eating, he will beg his mother to get up and get everything for him, whenever he wants it. Ketchtup...drink...etc. She still does it and I find it annoying, especially when he shows no appreciation for anything. And then when we ask him to do anything he will say "your legs arent broke". Now my wife is 6 months pregnant and I am even more annoyed. I dont want my child to be like him, which I dont think will happen, since I would never let that happen. How can i tell her that? Just this morning she is mad at me because I have been ignoring him lately. I have spoken to his mother multiple times about this and ask her to be tougher on him and punish bad behavior...but mostly it falls on dear ears. She always threatens punishment but never follows through. Basically, he is very rude and selfish. I could list even more examples but that's what I think it all comes down to. My wife babied him his whole life until I came into their life and suggested not to do that...but it appears to be too late. Just yesterday he yelled at my 6 year old nephew "GO AWAY and leave me alone"...only thing my nephew was doing was asking him questions while playing xbox. I wanted to beat his arse, physically! How do we fix his selfishness and rudeness? I think its all related - what do you think? Its torture for me to be at home most time and I know once my baby is born I will ignore his existence for my own self preservation. I'm so frustrated teaching a 16 yr old things that I feel I should never be teaching him. My 3 year old nephew was over and they were eating grapes together. The 3 year old kept his mouth closed the entire time even though he could barely chew a grape but the 16 yr old sounded like a horse. I want my 16 yr old to act 16 - how do we do this? Is it fair to tell her my feeling and tell her she needs to fix it? I am at my wits end... Thanks!!!! |

I was in a very similar situation with my step-son (who is now 17). In addition to all the behaviours you describe, he refused to engage in basic hygiene. His clothes and sheets had to be washed at the laundromat in the giant washer with a bottle of bleach. He spent every spare minute playing video games, including during the summer when all the other teenagers in the area had summer jobs. My husband never followed through with any consequences. It didn't help our situation that my step-son has a twin sister who has her own behaviour problems. My husband and I separated last fall. I am sorry that the marriage broke down, but my daughter and I are really enjoying the peace. If you value your marriage, I strongly suggest that you see a counsellor with your wife and start setting some ground rules for your step-son's behaviour in the house. The problem here is not the kid - it's your wife. She's the one who needs to support you and set some limits. Once your baby arrives, you will have less tolerance for a problem adolescent (soon to be a problem adult) in your house. The situation could become completely intolerable (as mine did) and you will be calling a lawyer instead of a counsellor. |

Thanks for your response! Yes, he has the same hygiene problems. We have to force him to brush his teeth every night. Not only that, but he recently got ring worm from hygiene problems. Scary to hear of your situation but can totally understand how it can get to that point! |
- Posted by stepmomofthree (My Page) on Tue, Feb 4, 14 at 12:43
Just one more comment. This isn't normal adolescent behaviour. Most teenagers want to be attractive to others, not offensive. Can you imagine what the other kids in high school say about a kid who smells bad and has food on his face? We had a full psych assessment for my step-son over a year ago and it revealed some serious problems (including oppositional defiant disorder). The recommendation was a lot of treatment (and possibly some medication if required). My husband never followed through with the program because his son objected. Once he turns 18, he will be responsible for his own medical care, so it's unlikely that he will ever get treated. |
- Posted by MikeILY123 (My Page) on Tue, Feb 4, 14 at 13:54
Very concerning! I mean just yesterday I caught him using a lighter to set his colgone on fire on the desk in the bedroom. He would spray the table, light it on fire and then repeat. I noticed something afoul when I smelled cologne in the ENTIRE house. I went up and realized what he did. So I took his cologne and hid it. He asked this morning where it was and I told him if it's not important and you just want to waste it plus put everyone in danger, then you obviously dont need it and I told him i threw it away. He was not happy...am I overreacting or? |

My husband never followed through with any consequences. It didn't help our situation that my step-son has a twin sister who has her own behaviour problems. Setting ground rules. If your partner the bioparent refuses to enforce consequences, or the ground rules and you are arguing over how to parent the child, there are major problems ahead. The child knows you are arguing and will continue to do what he/she is doing at will besides they are getting plenty of attention. In my case we had some minor chores, like walk 20 feet and take the trash out. Wipe and put dishes away x 1 per day. Well guess who is picking up the slack on this the bioparent taking the trash out, and wiping dishes. Bio parent only has one good arm and hand so using 2 is difficult, but they are enabling this lazy, sloven 6' 160lbs. 16 yr. old to be belligerent and disrespectful. The bio parent bought the kid an iphone, wrote up a contract. The kid has F,F,D-, Incomplete grades, which have not improved, according to the contract he is suppose to lose the phone with no improvement. He is suppose to do is measly chores without nagging, or mouthing off. Guess what, no improvement. So, look for a divorce lawyer because your life will not change-only worsten, because the bioparent is an enabler. |

Golden Balls is a British daytime game show presented by Jasper Carrott. It aired on the ITV network from 18 June 2007 to 18 December 2009. It was filmed at the BBC Television Centre. From 25 February 2008 to 13 February 2009, the show was sponsored by ITV Bingo (powered by Party Gaming) (STV Bingo in Scotland); from 2 November to 18 December 2009, the show was sponsored by Carpet Right; and from January 2013 to February 2013, whilst repeated on Challenge, the show was sponsored by Sky Bingo. Golden Balls Ltd licensed their name to Endemol for the game show and merchandise.
Round 1[edit]
At the back of the studio is the "Golden Bank", a giant contraption like a lottery machine. Inside it, are 100 golden balls, containing cash values, ranging from £10 to £75,000. Twelve of these balls are randomly drawn from the machine and four "Killer" balls are added by Amanda Grant, the "Balls' Assistant". These sixteen balls are split equally and randomly among four contestants. Each contestant places two balls on his front row and two on his back row. The balls on the front row are visible to all contestants; the balls on the back row are visible only to their owner.
Each contestant in turn announces the contents of the balls on his back row. The contestant can either tell the truth or lie about the balls. After each contestant has done this, the contestants discuss who they think is lying, and try to establish who has the worst set of balls, either in terms of having the lowest amount of money or the most Killer balls.
The contestants then secretly vote for which of them they would like to leave the game. In the case of a tie, the contestants not involved in the tie must try to reach a consensus in open discussion. If this does not occur, who is eliminated is decided at random. This is decided by giving each contestant involved in the tie another golden ball, one being a Killer ball and the others empty. The contestant who had the Killer ball is eliminated. At the end of the round, the contestants reveal the contents of the balls on their back rows and the eliminated contestant's balls are "binned", meaning they are out of the game forever.[1]
Round 2[edit]
The three remaining contestants' balls are put back into the ball machine, along with two more cash balls chosen at random from the Golden Bank and one more Killer ball, making fifteen balls in play. These fifteen balls are split among the remaining three contestants randomly and equally, with two balls on their front rows and three on their back rows.
As with Round 1, the contestants reveal the contents of the balls on their front rows and announce what is in the balls on their back rows, and may lie. The contestants then discuss the veracity of each other's claims, and vote a player off in the same fashion as in Round 1.
Bin or Win?[edit]
The two remaining contestants' balls are again put back into the ball machine and one more Killer ball is added, making eleven balls in play. The two contestants sit at a desk with the eleven balls between them. In turn, starting with the contestant who brought the most money into the final, the contestants pick a ball to "bin" (eliminate from the game) and pick a ball to "win" (add to the jackpot). If a Killer ball is picked to be won, then the cumulative value of the jackpot is divided by 10, unless said Killer ball is the first ball picked, in which case nothing happens to the jackpot. This process is repeated five times.
Split or Steal?[edit]
After five balls have been won, the contestants make one last decision to determine the final jackpot division. Each contestant chooses one of two final golden balls, one with "Split" printed on the cash background inside it, and one with "Steal" printed on the killer background inside it.
- If both contestants choose a Split ball, the jackpot is split equally between them and they both go home with half the money they've won.
- If one contestant chooses a Split ball and the other chooses a Steal ball, the Stealer goes home with all the money and the Splitter goes home empty-handed.
- If both contestants choose Steal balls, they both go home empty-handed.
The players have a chance to speak with each other face to face before making their choices.
The table below shows how much of the jackpot is gained by each contestant with the different combinations of choices:
Result | Split | Steal | ||
Split | 50% | 50% | 100% | 0% |
Steal | 0% | 100% | 0% | 0% |
This is similar to the prisoner's dilemma, a well-studied problem in game theory. A key difference is that, in the standard Prisoner's Dilemma payoffs, if the one player defects (or steals), the other player is better off defecting than cooperating (splitting), but in Golden Balls, if the one player steals, the other player gets the same amount (nothing) either way. The catch is that all three results in the matrix where at least one person steals are Nash equilibria, and stealing is a weakly dominant strategy; this means that, as long as someone is planning on stealing, neither player has anything to gain by changing what they're doing, but if both players are planning on splitting, the players have an incentive to steal for a better payoff, and so both players splitting is an unstable strategy.
The "Split or Steal?" game element was also used on Shafted, a previous Endemol production, and in the U.S. Game Show Network game Friend or Foe?
The first show opened with 1.6 million viewers. Viewership climbed to a steady 2 million viewers. In the same 17:00 timeslot, eight of the first eleven episodes beat Channel 4's Richard & Judy, and The Weakest Link on BBC Two also took a dent from the show's success. Series 2 went on to average 2.1 million viewers in early 2008. As of summer 2009, the show's popularity fell; it attracted only around 1.2 million viewers, which led to the show's termination on 18 December 2009.[1][2] It is still regularly shown throughout the week on Challenge in the UK and Republic Of Ireland although usually during off-peak times. It is now also showing on ITV again but usually after midnight.
British psychologist Adrian Raine has criticised the show, arguing that it "encourages deceitfulness", and that many of its contestants are celebrated for displaying "characteristics of psychopathy".[3]
Viewer's competition[edit]
For series 3, a viewer's game was introduced. Four golden balls appear on the screen at the first two commercial breaks. One contains £3,000, the other three are Killer balls. They are shuffled and the viewer has to find the cash ball.
From series 4 until the end of its run, there were multiple formats for the viewer's competition, including the one used in series 3. In addition, the prize per day ranged from £2,000 to £4,000.
Home versions[edit]
A video game was released on the Nintendo DS and Wii platforms, and another version for mobile devices was released in 2007. In 2008, an interactive DVD game was released[4] by Channel 4. Other versions include an electronic board game in 2007[5] and a card game in 2008.[6]
