Men's Garden Club of Pittsburgh
Deer Resistant Plants are listed on the bottom of this page
Frost Dates
Question: When can we expect our last frost in Allegheny County?
Answer: On average, residents of Pittsburgh receive their last hard frost on April 20. The average last hard frost for outlying communities is April 30. The frost free date is two weeks later. To be on the safe side, hold off planting tender vegetables and annuals until Memorial Day weekend. The holiday has been known as the traditional frost-free planting date around here for a very good reason-late spring frosts!
Frost-tolerant vegetables such as beets, broccoli, cabbage, carrots, cauliflower, kohlrabi, leeks, lettuce, onions, peas, radishes, spinach and Swiss chard can be. planted outdoors from mid- to late April. Pansies are frost-tolerant and can be planted outdoors at the same time.
The latest USDA Hardiness Zone Map places most of Allegheny, Beaver and Washington counties into Zone 6a, which averages winter lows of minus 5 to minus 10. Northeastern Allegheny County, the southern two-thirds of Butler County and Westmoreland County are listed as Zone 5b, which averages winter lows of minus 10 to minus 15.

covariates (e.g., divorce rates, per capital alcohol consumption, female labor force participation, family size, and cohort size), Mathur and Freeman found that increases in gun dealerships per capita predicted increases in the overall youth suicide rate. Finally, Duggan (2003) used two decades of gun magazine sales with controls for state and year fixed effects to explain the trends in suicide rates across all age groups. Duggan found no association between magazine subscription rates and either gun suicide or overall suicide rates across time (b = .046, s.e. = .064, and b = .004, s.e. = .051, respectively).
Overall, the body of ecological studies has firmly established that firearms access is positively associated with gun suicide, but the association between firearm access and overall suicide is less certain.
In particular, gun suicide rates are strongly correlated with gun prevalence across space and possibly across time, in the United States and across countries. Likewise, many ecological studies do report a cross-sectional association between gun ownership rates and overall suicide rates in the United States. However, gun ownership rates do not seem to explain overall suicide trends across countries or across time in the United States. Moreover, the results seem to vary according to the firearm measure used, the age group being studied, and the covariates included.
To further improve our understanding of the effects of firearms on suicide, researchers need to be increasingly sensitive to the possibility of confounding factors and substitution. Moreover, these ecological studies introduce two additional problems that must be considered. First, the analyses are conducted at the aggregate level, rather than at the individual level, and second, direct measures of access to firearms are often not available, thus forcing researchers to rely on proxies. We consider each of these issues in turn.
As with all empirical analyses, researchers and policy makers must be sensitive to unobserved confounders when attempting to draw causal inferences (see Box 7-1). To what extent would suicidal persons substitute other methods if firearms were less available? Unmeasured and confounding factors associated with both suicide risk and gun ownership might lead to a spurious association between guns and suicide. For example, if persons who are prone to own guns because of their mistrust of others were also at greater risk for suicide, whether or not they owned guns, there could be a noncausal statistical association between gun ownership and suicide. Likewise, high levels of "social capital" might be associated with lower rates of

By Casie VinallSpecial to American Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, July 15, 2003 Today, there's no visible reminder of the Sept. 11 terrorist attack on the Pentagon. The destroyed section of the building has been rebuilt. Its gray stone facade has been meticulously restored.
The outside appears as it has since the military headquarters was built in 1941. Inside, however, is another story.
The inside section has been restored with one significant addition: the Pentagon Memorial and Chapel.
This facility now stands at the exact site of impact to honor the 184 attack victims, serving as a solemn and fitting reminder of the tragic day none who witnessed will forget. Accessible to the public only through special tours, the memorial and chapel was designed by Defense Department artists and opened in September 2002.
Inside the dimly lit memorial, a quote by President Bush is inscribed on the polished steel central wall along with the names of those lost and missing: "One death can leave sorrow that seems almost unbearable. But to all of you who lost someone here, I want to say: You are not alone."
The adjacent walls display the Purple Heart medal and the Defense of Freedom medal. A folded flag that covered the casket honoring the victims during the group burial at nearby Arlington National Cemetery on Sept. 12, 2002, hangs on the opposite wall.
Upon a table in the center, the pages of a memorial book are open to Brady Kay Howell, 26, from Rexburg, Idaho. Perhaps not one of the better-known victims, his story on the page begins with "a beloved and fun-loving husband, son, brother, uncle, and friend" a familiar story of so many victims.
Bill Eicher, an assistant in the Army chaplain's office, regularly visits the memorial and chapel. He describes it as a "very sad and heart-wrenching" reminder, but also a "very befitting tribute to those who died."
"In some ways it's much like the Vietnam wall," said Eicher. "Both are very solemn and sad appropriately so."
As Eicher leaves the memorial, a group from the Air National Guard Crisis Action Team at Andrews Air Force Base, Md., enters. One member walks up to the plaque bearing the names, stating to his group, "Here's the family I worked with." He takes a long piece of parchment, places it over the name of his friend and rubs the name onto the paper with a pencil provided on a side table.
Another Guardsman, Chaplain (Col.) David Cooper, is visiting the memorial for the first time. "You just can't describe it," he said, speaking of the tragedy. The memorial, he declares, is a "fitting tribute."
"It's moving when you think about it and focus on it," said Eric Prasse, an electrical inspector at the Pentagon who said he stops in often. It "helps to have a memorial here that (says) the victims were thought of and well-honored."
Prasse was on-site when the crash occurred. He lost one of his friends in the attack. He takes out the friend's small picture he carries in his wallet.
Prasse estimates he has visited the memorial a hundred times. "I've got a lot of appreciation for everyone who has built the building as well and as fast as they did," he said, referring to how quickly the damage was repaired and sections reopened.
A family with small children enters the memorial, children too young to know this tragedy. This memorial exists for them too, so that they can honor those who died, lest they be forgotten.
Inscribed on a plaque in the memorial are words from Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld on Oct. 11, 2001: "We are mindful too, and resolute, that their deaths, like their lives, shall have meaning."
An outdoor memorial that will be open to the public is to be built on nearly two acres of land along the path the passenger jet took just before it hit the building. The Army Corps of Engineers began planning the outdoor memorial in October 2001. Corps officials selected a winning design from over 1,000 contest entries. They project a Sept. 11, 2004, dedication, the third anniversary of the attack.

Georgia vs. Vanderbilt
A few observations about Georgia's place in the world of the Ratings Percentage Index (RPI):
Georgia and the NBA
Georgia's two premature departures from 2011 have seen early-season action with the NBA team that drafted them in the second round. Both Trey Thompkins and Travis Leslie have played for the Los Angeles Clippers, the former in 11 games and the latter in seven.
Perhaps more noteworthy, however, is the progress of 3rd-year pro Sundiata Gaines, who finished his career at Georgia in 2008. After playing in the D-League for 1 1/2 seasons, Gaines was signed in 2010 by Utah, had cups of coffee in Minnesota and Toronto and seems to have found a home in the New Jersey Nets. The Jamaica, N.Y., native is the Nets' No. 5 scorer, averaging 6.2 points per game and playing almost 15 minutes.
For just the third time ever, Georgia now has four alumni currently playing in the NBA: the aforementioned trio, as well as elder statesman Damien Wilkins, who now plays in Detroit. Just once has UGA placed five alums in the NBA at the same time: the 1993-94 season (Dominique Wilkins, Willie Anderson, Vern Fleming, Litterial Green and Alec Kessler).
It's also worth mentioning that Georgia's other two departures from last season -- frontcourt men Jeremy Price and Chris Barnes -- are both playing professionally now, the former in Finland, the latter in Lithuania.
Georgia and the SEC
Following are a few tidbits about Georgia's history in the SEC:

A body portion of an optical reader has an elastomeric skirt surrounding the lateral edges thereof. The laterally spaced front edges of the skirt, which are on either side of a window through which the light is emitted and received along an optical axis, are angled rearwardly from a plane normal to the axis. The front edges extend downwardly and forwardly from a front edge of the bottom wall of a body, and also extend forwardly from a front edge of the top wall of the body. These features allow the lower ends of the front edges of the skirt to be placed on a surface near the target to act as a fulcrum in rotating the handle of the scanner to selectively place the reader in close proximity to the target, while at the same time allowing the operator to view the target. An elastomeric collar is applied to the lower end of the handle such that when the scanning device is placed at rest in an unused condition, no matter what the rotational position with respect to the axis of the handle, the device will be supported at one elastomeric covered position on each of the handle and the skirt. Other features of the scanning device provide for a stable parking of the scanner when not in use and a substantial recessing of the front window to thereby protect it from contact with objects that may tend to scratch or damage the window.
1. An optical scanning device of the type having apparatus for emitting light and for receiving light along an optical axis and through a forward window placed in proximity to a target and which is adapted for contact with a planar surface, said optical scanning device comprising:
a handle to be grasped by an operator for selectively positioning the scanning device near the target;
a head connected at one end of said handle and containing the light emitting and receiving apparatus, said head having a front face comprising spaced apart first and second elongated surfaces, each being shaped to be slightly convex outwardly, said scanning device being configured so that said first and second spaced apart elongated surfaces can contact said planar surface simultaneously, said first and second spaced apart elongated surfaces each extending in a direction generally parallel to a plane extending normal to said optical axis but angled rearward from said plane such that lower portions of said first and second elongated surfaces extend more forwardly than upper portions of said first and second surfaces; and
wherein said each elongated surface extends downwardly from a front edge of a bottom wall of a body extending there between.

This application is related to the applications enumerated below, all of which are being filed with the United States Patent and Trademark Office contemporaneously herewith on Jan. 9, 2003 by Express Mail, and all of which are subject to assignment to the same assignee of this application, the disclosure of each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety: "Optical Reader System Comprising Digital Circuit" assigned U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/339,424 (Abandoned), entitled "Analog-to-Digital Converter with Automatic Range and Sensitivity Adjustment" assigned U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/339,004 (Abandoned), entitled "Decoder Board for an Optical Reader Utilizing a Plurality of Imaging Modules" assigned U. S. patent application Ser. No. 10/339,439 (Pending), entitled "Manufacturing Methods for a Decoder Board for an Optical Reader Utilizing a Plurality of Imaging Formats" assigned U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/339,061 (Abandoned), entitled "Optical Reader Having Position Responsive Decode Launch Circuit" assigned U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/339,281 (Abandoned).
This invention relates generally to optical readers, and more specifically to a housing therefor.
In the use of optical reader devices of the type for reading bar codes, the preferred distance in which the reader is placed over and spaced from the bar code varies with the particular code type and also with particular type of reader. It is generally understood that the accuracy and reliability is improved as the reader is brought closer to the code to be scanned. Ideally, it is therefore desirable to be able to position the face of the reader in very close proximity to the code. But in doing so, it is also desirable that the operator be able to see the code. That is, just prior to the read being taken, the operator should be able to see the aiming line of the imager on the target in order to best align the reader with the target.
With existing optical readers, the operators view is generally obstructed when the reader is brought into close proximity to the code. That is, because the front face of the reader is generally angled forwardly of a plane that is normal to the optical axis, the target is substantially covered up as the reader face is brought into close contact with the target.
Another problem associated with optical readers is the tendency of the window to become scratched because of its prominent position at the front face of the reader. Damage can occur to the window during the normal course of scanning as the window comes in contact with the product being scanned, or it can occur during periods of non-use when the scanner is simply at rest on the counter, for example. In any case, any such scuffing or scratching damage to the window may cause for less reliable or improper readings and may necessitate the replacement of the window.
Another thing that maybe affect the reliability and durability of the reader is the shock that may occur from repeatedly setting it down on the counter and/or dropping it from time to time. Although the casings are generally made from a material that is durable enough to withstand the dropping of a unit on a hard surface, the sensitive internal components, and even the outer casing, may be damaged by such treatment.
It is therefore the object of the present invention to provide an improved housing for an optical reader device.
Another object of the present invention is the provision in an optical reader device for improved reliability in the scanning of targets at close proximity.
Yet another object of the present invention is the provision in an optical reader device for allowing the operator to see the bar code while it is being scanned at a close distance.
Still another object to the present invention is the provision in an optical reader device for protecting the front window from damage.
Yet another object to the present invention is the provision in an optical reader for efficiently and effectively lining up the reader with a target when scanning at close distances.
Still another object to the present invention is the provision for reducing damage that can occur to an optical reader by physical contact with hard surfaces.
Still another object to the present invention is the provision for an optical reader device which is economical to manufacture and effective and efficient in use.
These objects and other features and advantages become more readily apparent upon reference to the following description when taken in conjunction with the appended drawings.
Briefly, in accordance with one aspect of the invention, the front face of an optical reader is angled backwardly from a plane that is normal to the optical axis of the device, thereby improving the visibility of the target to the operator as the scan is being made at close distances.
In accordance with another aspect of the invention, the front face of the scanner is constructed to include a pair of downwardly extending legs on the respective ends of the face such that they can be placed in contact with the target surface and act as a fulcrum for rotating the scanner handle upwardly to thereby allow the scanner face to be controllably brought into close proximity to the target.
By yet another aspect of the invention, a central portion of the front face of an optical scanner is recessed to improve the visibility of the target to the operator as the scanner face is brought into close proximity to the target.
In accordance with yet another aspect of the invention, the position of on the front face window of an optical reading device is substantially offset inwardly to protect the window from damage that might otherwise occur.
By still another aspect of the invention, the housing of an optical reader is provided with an elastomeric material surrounding each of its ends such that when it is placed or dropped on a hard surface, it will be cushioned at both ends thereof.
While the present invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to a preferred embodiment as illustrated in the drawings, it will be understood by one skilled in the art that various changes in detail may be effected therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the claims.
Contained within an internal cavity 14 of the handle assembly 11, is a trigger assembly 16 with it's trigger 17 loosely extending through a trigger opening 18 such that the trigger 17 can be selectively depressed by the operator. On the upper side of the trigger assembly 16 is a pair of contact members 19 and 21 which, when the trigger is depressed, engage surfaces on the trigger frame 22 mounted thereabove. Disposed immediately above and attached to the trigger frame 22 is a printed circuit board 23 to which the optical assembly 12 is mounted.
The optical assembly 12 has mounted therein a plurality of light emitting diodes which project light forwardly through a lens assembly 24 for the illumination of a target such as a bar code. An optics assembly within the lens assembly 24 then projects an image back through an opening 26 to an image processor which "reads" the bar code. Pending U.S. application Ser. No. 10/137,484 filed on May 2, 2002 (311.01NP), Ser. No. 10/161,950 filed on Jun. 4, 2002 (283—358) and Ser. No. 10/252,484 filed Sep. 23, 2002 (283—355NP), as well as two applications being filed concurrently herewith and titled Decoder Board for an Optical Reader Utilizing a Plurality of Imaging Formats and Optical Reader Having Position Responsive Decode Launch Circuit, respectively, all of which are commonly owned by the Assignee of the present invention and incorporated herein by reference.
The handle assembly 11 includes a downwardly extending handle 27 which terminates with an enlarged portion 28 which extends forwardly in a bulbous fashion as shown. Attached to the enlarged portion 28 is an end cap 29, which is secured thereto by a fastener 30. An electrical flex device 31 is secured between a pair of flexible fingers 33 and 34 in the end cap 29 for purposes of providing electrical power to the various elements within the optical assembly 12 by way of an electrical lead (not shown) extending upwardly through the handle 27.
Insertably installed in the other end 34 of the end cap 29 is an electric plug 36 which acts to bring power to the optics assembly 12 and to transmit signals from the optics assembly 12 to a display device (not shown). The plug is held in place by way of a cord lock 37 which is secured in place by a fastener 38. As will be seen in
Referring now to the top portion or body 35, of the handle assembly 11 which together with the housing cover 13, functions to contain the various internal components as described hereinabove, it will be seen that the optical assembly 12 is secured to the printed circuit board 23 by fasteners 25 and the printed circuit board 23, in turn, in secured to the body 35 by fastener 30. Before attaching the housing cover 13 to the body 35, there are various components that are attached to the housing cover 13. Before discussing any of the attachments however, it is best to first describe the housing cover 13 in greater detail.
The housing cover 13 is made by a two shot molding process wherein in the first shot, a hard plastic core is formed of a material such as—. In a second shot, a softer thermoplastic elastomer layer is then molded over the plastic core in a rather conventional matter. A suitable material for the outer layer is commercially available under the name of Santoprene, which is sold by Monsanto Chemicals Ltd. One of the primary purposes of the elastomer layer is to provide protection to the hard plastic material, but also to the internal components of the optical reader device by reducing the shock effect when the optical reader device comes in contact with a hard surface. The distribution of the Santoprene material on the various surfaces of the optical reader device is optimized for that purpose as will be more fully described hereinafter.
Referring to the outer layer of the top surface of the housing cover 13 as shown in
Referring to
Referring now to the forward end of the housing cover 13, the opening 58 is bordered on each side by downwardly and forwardly extending wing structures or forward edges 59 and 61 whose plane is disposed at a particular angle as will be more fully described hereinafter. It will be seen that the sides 49 and 51 taper downwardly as they extend from the back side of the housing cover 13 to the front side thereof. The forward edges 49 and 51 also extend forwardly of the front edge 52 of the lower surface 42 to thereby define an indentation 66 at the front edge 52. This indentation, along with the forward projection of the forward edges 49 and 51, along with the downward tapering of the forward edges 49 and 51 assist in obtaining a desired spacing of the reader from the target, while at the same time allowing the operator to simultaneously observe the target as will be more fully described hereinafter.
The window boot and its included window are shown at 67 and 68, respectively in
Referring now to the top surface of the housing cover 13 as shown in
The housing cover 13 is secured to the handle assembly 11 by fasteners 91 that extend upwardly through the handle assembly 11 and into the housing cover 13 and a fastener 92 which passes downwardly through the housing cover 13 into the handle assembly 11 as shown in
Referring now to
It will be seen that the front edge of the wing structure 61 is curvilinear in form (i.e., it is slightly convex outwardly). However, it is generally angled rearwardly from a plane N normal to the optical axis A as shown. For simplicity, a dashed line has been drawn through the tangent of the other surface of that wing structure 61 at the point at which the axis A passes therethrough. It will be recognized that this tangent line is angled rearwardly at an angle θ from the plane normal to the optical axis A. The angle θ should be in the range of 5–10 degrees and is preferably 8 degrees.
It will also be seen that the cover side 63 tapers downwardly as it extends from the rear end of the cover 13 to the front end thereof at 61. The result is that there are a pair of base points 93 (i.e., one on either side), with both formed of the elastomeric material, which extends both downwardly and forwardly from a front edge 94 of the body 35.
As the front face as defined by the edges 59 and 61 extends upwardly, it is angled rearwardly as discussed hereinabove, but it remains as the forwardmost part of the structure such that, even at the top ends of the edges 59 and 61, they project forwardly of a forward edge 52 of the cover/over surface 42 to hereby provide the indentation 66, between the two edges 59 and 61 and the front edge 52 as discussed hereinabove.
Referring now to
Considering now the cushioning aspects of the present invention, the end cap is shown more fully in
Referring now to 5 a–5 c, it will be seen that the combination of the elastomeric skirt around the body of the scanner, and the elastomeric collar provides for a cushioning effect to the scanner when it comes into contact with the hard surface. This can occur when the device is simply laid down when not in use, or when it is occasionally dropped by the operator.
Because the skirt extends entirely around the cover, except for a small segment at its rear where the lightpipe is installed as discussed hereinabove, and because the collar 97 extends entirely around the end cap 29, the device can be place in any rotational position between those shown in
Referring now to
Considering further now the positions in which the device can be "parked". The forward face down position as shown in
Another possible "parked" position is that shown in
The various ornamental features of an industrial version of the device are shown in

Product Review: General Hydroponics Flora Series
Company: Amazon via seller General Hydroponics; seller rating – 5 out of 5 stars
Price Range: $25-40
Who Would Buy This:
Regardless of whether you're an experienced hydroponic grower or new to the hobby, you'll love the value that you get out of the General Hydroponics Flora Series.
The purpose of the Flora Series is to provide all of the essential nutrients in one place, with easy mixing instructions, so that your hydroponic plants receive all of the best nutrients that they need to thrive. You can also purchase each of the nutes – Floragro, Florabloom, and Floramicro – separately; however, you'll make it much easier on yourself if you get all three together.
The General Hydroponics Flora Series is perfect if you're new to indoor hydroponic growing because it takes the guesswork out of mixing up your own liquid fertilizer. Aside from light, a quality source of nutrients is the difference between thriving and dying plants, which is exactly what you get with the Floragro, Florabloom and Floramicro.
You don't have to worry about getting the right ratios of Phosphorous, Magnesium, Potassium, Sulfur, Calcium, Nitrogen or the trace elements, because the Flora Series from General Hydroponics does it for you. If you already have experience with mixing up your own liquid fertilizers for your hydroponic system, then let the quality of the Flora Series do the talking – you'll never go back to struggling with your own homemade fertilizers again!
The mixing formulas are provided so that it's easy to get ratios correct for all stages of plant life, from seedlings to adults – which is another great benefit for inexperienced hydroponic growers. You don't have to worry about messing up or killing your plants if you follow the directions correctly!
The only downside to purchasing the General Hydroponics Flora Series is that you'll quickly find yourself wanting more – especially if you grow a lot of hydroponic plants! If you find that you go through the kit quickly, then you should try to stock up on more liquid nutrients by purchasing them in bulk quantities.
Value for money?
Although the General Hydroponics Flora Series may seem pricey if you're just starting out with hydro growing, you'll quickly find that it more than makes up for it in the quality of the nutrients that you receive. Long-time hydroponics enthusiasts make it a staple addition to their systems because it delivers exactly what it promises; fast growth, high yield and excellent color, size and smell.

Alexis's demands ultimately left her begging for her job, even after she threatened to quit the show to concentrate on motherhood.
She was looking for a $100,000 raise, but at the end of season 7 Bravo didn't renew her contract.
When Alexis realized Bravo wasn't going to give her a pay raise, she immediately pleaded with TV execs to give her another chance!
"The rest of the cast thinks she's an egomaniac and are furious," an insider said.

Agents using RatePlug experience a 15% shorter timeframe from List Date to Contract Date
Click on the Play Button to learn more about RatePlug. Click here if you are having problems viewing the video.
How Does RatePlug work?
RatePlug is embedded into the MLS system you use to search and send property reports to your homebuyers.
When you send your MLS property reports to your customers, they will now have access to accurate, interactive mortgage product and payment information specific to each property. The payment information is based on up to date interest rates from your lender of choice and includes property taxes, assessments, and home owners insurance estimations.
You and your customer can interact with the information and play what if scenarios to best determine their financing needs. In addition, the customer is given the ability to ask mortgage questions and is provided access to your trusted lending partners contact information.
RatePlug is Easy to Use
RatePlug is an automated system. You do not need to learn how to use any new software or log onto any system to participate. Once you are enrolled, a 2 minute process, your lending partner supports you, which only takes them a few minutes a day!
Your lender will make sure their mortgage products and rates are kept current, and they will also provide you with the Property Flyers for your listings or open house events. All you need to do is continue to send properties to potential homebuyers through the MLS system.
RatePlug has contracted with the MLS to provide the Program as one of the services included in your membership. There are no additional fees to participate.
Your lending partners pay a license fee to participate, but they can work with as many agents as they choose for one low annual fee. Their fee is not based on transactions or program usage.
Selecting Your Lending Partners
RatePlug does not display random lending companies information like other mortgage sites do. You tell us who you would like to display, and we do the rest. We will contact your lender or lenders (you can display up to 3 lenders) to explain the benefits of the Program and guide them through the enrollment process.
Your customers have access to your trusted lenders and the services they provide, providing you peace of mind regarding the mortgage process.
Property Flyer System
When you list a new property in your MLS system, your lending partner has the ability to create co-branded professional flyers. Lenders across the United States have provided their Agents with more than 20,000 flyers a month through RatePlug in 2011.
RatePlug archives every flyer and property detail created in our system for 6 years in compliance with the new FTC (MAP) guidelines.
There are several templates available (ask your lender to demonstrate) or Click here to View a sample RatePlug and Property Flyer display for your listings.
RatePlug Protects you from FTC (MAP) violations
The new FTC (MAP-Mortgage Acts and Practices) regulations impact ALL real estate professionals who offer information about mortgages to clients or customers. . The two key areas of concern that RatePlug has addressed to protect the Broker/Agent are as follows:
Disclaimer language- RatePlug has adopted the National Association of Realtors recommended disclaimer and has incorporated the language into all flyers generated through our Program. This disclaimer is simple and clear specifying that the Broker/Agent is not a mortgage lender and directs the customer to contact the lender directly with mortgage related inquiries.
Record Keeping - The new regulations specify that real estate professionals are required to save all mortgage related communications for up to 6 years from the date that the communication was made available to the consumer. RatePlug archives every lender display created on property reports as well as every property flyer generated through the RatePlug system for retrieval at a later date if necessary.
Teaming with a proven, reliable Lender that you trust is critical. It has been shown that the more knowledgeable Buyers are of their mortgage options, the smoother the transaction goes.
RatePlug provides the comfort of knowing that Agents can continue to effectively market their properties without the burden or risk of being outside of the new FTC requirements.
Study Results
The study looked at 177,393 real estate transactions in 7 major marketplaces in the U.S. (San Diego, Chicago, Washington DC, Maryland, Virginia, Delaware, Rhode Island). The data was derived from Agents that are Active with RatePlug and Agents who are not Active with RatePlug in order to determine the Total # of Days between List date and Contract date. The data included Single Family homes, Townhomes and Condominiums.

Typical worthless "feel good" idea by an out-of-touch government that does no good. In fact, this program gives criminals an incentive to go steal a gun to make a few bucks. Criminals don't follow the law anyway.
A 20% transfer fee (tax) is unbelievable!! Oh, I guess not - a Dem administration extorts from businesses rather than promotes increased business activities and greater taxes.

The Quarter was fun when the "live music" was loud - one could even talk and be understood. Then sometime in the late 70s and 80s amplifiers ruined the enjoyable "loud" music. During the 80s the noise (not music) became deafening and not enjoyable.
Thankfully the city council is finally taking action. It's been about a year since I've been to the Quarter at night, however I can only imagine it's intolerable to walk and attempt to talk even on Bourbon Street.

Students from 182 of Indiana's public school districts have moved to private schools under the state's new education voucher program, although only seven districts lost more than 100 kids.
In all, 3,919 students from low- to moderate-income families qualified for an Indiana Choice Scholarship this fall. Of those, 86 percent were moving from a public school to a private one.
The rest – 537 students – were previously attending private school s using funds donated under a state tax credit program. Those students were transferred to the voucher program.
"Hoosier parents are more empowered than ever before in our state," said Superintendent of Public Instruction Tony Bennett who pushed for the voucher program. "Demographics do not determine a child's ability to grow academically and should not determine the educational opportunities offered to any student," he said. "When you connect a child's name and face to the Choice Scholarship program, it is easy to see the transformational results of increased educational opportunities."

ALBANY - A group gathered at an Albany church.
Many had voluntarily gone without food for at least 40 hours.
"This process brings a closer awareness to abundance and want, justice and injustice," said Sara Niccoli of the Capital Region Labor-Religion Coalition.
Those taking part in the fast are urging an increase in the state's minimum wage to 9 dollars an hour. It passed the Assembly this week but faces an uncertain fate in the Senate.
Demonstrators also want major improvements for farm workers.
Kerry Kennedy, Governor Cuomo's first wife and a daughter of the late Senator Robert Kennedy, suggested it is a civil rights issue.
"So we get rid of the last of the Jim Crow laws in this state and farm workers get the same rights that every deli worker and every other worker and everybody in this room works under," said Kennedy. "That is all that is being asked by this legislation. I've seen first hand slave-like conditions for people across New York State. 95, 100 hour work weeks at minimum wage with no overtime pay and no days off."
At the end of the service pieces of apricot were passed out to break the fast.

Changes and cuts to the transportation department within Carrollton Schools was a top priority during the August Board of Education meeting last week.
The board approved abolishing the position of a bus driver for two afternoon routes effective Aug. 27 due to "severe financial conditions" and then removed Rae A. Speaker, the bus driver, from the payroll by approving a reduction in force. Speaker was hired as a part-time cafeteria cook later in the session.
Transportation Director Phil Rutledge, who attended the session to answer questions pertaining to bus routes, noted he has removed one bus from the route to Buckeye Joint Vocational School.
"We are going to try to make it work with one bus on the Buckeye route due to declining enrollment and the fact that a lot of the students drive themselves," Rutledge said. "However, we do have a backup plan and if we need a second bus, we will have one available."
He noted by taking away a bus it will save the district about $80,000.
"Just to let you know, in the nine years I've been here, we've cut the number of bus drivers from 35 to 18," he said. "We have trimmed and trimmed until we can't trim any more."
He noted the buses still cover the same amount of territory as they have for many years; the changes are making for longer days for the students.
"What it means is that we have stretched the amount of time the students ride the buses. We have some students scheduled to get on the bus at 5:40 a.m. and some who ride the bus for an hour and 20 minutes," he noted.
Other school officials in attendance said they have already received calls about the early pickup times for students.
"That makes for an awfully long day," commented Board President Rose Seck.
"It may get worse if we don't get a levy passed," added Board Member Helen Skinner.
Superintendent Dave Quattrochi explained what Rutledge was doing in his department is part of a plan to reduce expenses by over $1 million.
"We overspent by $1.3 million in fiscal year 2013," he said. "We have two options in this situation: 1.) We can ask the people to approve a levy, which we are doing, and 2.) We can cut expenses, which we are doing."
Quattrochi noted Carrollton schools are gaining several students from Edison through open enrollment.
"We are looking at the possibility of taking a bus into Amsterdam to pick them up, but we will only look at the possibility after we have taken care of our own students," he said. "I figure we need about three to four weeks to look at the needs of our students."
Later in the meeting the board approved hiring four part-time cooks for the cafeteria and transferred $37,138.45 from the general fund to the cafeteria fund.
Along with Speaker, Samantha Martin, April Rogers and Paula Zippay were hired as cooks on a one-year limited contract. Treasurer Roxanne Mazur said the cooks will work three and one-half hours per day and will not qualify for benefits.

John Odom is looking forward to walking into Boston Medical Center this week for a memorial honoring survivors of the Boston Marathon bombing. After all, when he left the hospital last May, the doctors and nurses weren't sure he would ever walk again. Odom, 66, was one of the most severely injured of the bombing victims, enduring 11 surgeries and weeks on life support after shrapnel from one bomb tore apart his legs. "I want to be able to walk in …

Murder. Bank robbery. Racketeering. Drug dealing. For more than 60 years, from 1956 to 2011, James "Whitey" Bulger was either committing violent crimes or living as a fugitive from justice. Now 83, Bulger has been convicted of 31 separate criminal acts, and today he sits in prison, awaiting sentencing. In all likelihood he'll spend the rest of his life behind bars. Bulger will be far from the oldest person recently sentenced; for example, Brooke Astor's son, Anthony Marshall, was recently …

Job reports 'amuse' Oregon State coach

CORVALLIS, Ore. — Oregon State coach Mike Riley said that he was "amused" with speculation linking him to the vacant Wisconsin job.
Several Internet reports connected Riley with the opening, created when Bret Bielema left for Arkansas.
But Riley again said he is more interested in the Beavers' Dec. 29 Valero Alamo Bowl game with Texas at the Alamdome than speculation about looking for a new job.
"There has been no scheduled interview, and I haven't talked to anybody from Wisconsin," Riley said. "That's the truth. It's pretty amazing to me that you're all asking about this.
"My long-term intention has always been to stay here at Oregon State. I've said it a million and a half times."
Riley, 59, is the winningest coach in the Beavers' 116-season history with 81 victories. This season, his 12th, he led the No. 13 Beavers to a 9-3 record, their biggest one-season turnaround.
Some speculation had Riley trying to leverage interest from Wisconsin into an improvement on his $1.5 million yearly contract.
But he denied any interest other than improving the salary of his assistant coaches.
Riley, who coached the old San Antonio Riders of the World League of American Football in 1991-92, said he didn't spend any time talking with OSU players about the reports.
"There's other stuff, like Texas, to talk about," he said.

COLUMBIA - A Myrtle Beach couple has been charged with murder and kidnapping in the case of a missing 20-year-old woman whose body has not been found, authorities said Monday.
During a news conference, Horry County Police Chief Saundra Rhodes said Tammy Moorer, 41, and her 38-year-old husband Sidney face those charges in the death of Heather Elvis.
Elvis' family says she was last heard from around 3 a.m. on Dec. 18, after she went on a date. Her cellphone gave out its last signal around that time and her car was found abandoned at a boat landing Dec. 19.
The Moorers were initially arrested Friday and charged with indecent exposure and obstruction of justice in the case, but authorities released no other details about the charges or the investigation that led to them. On Monday, Rhodes also declined to release much information, saying only that that additional evidence found at their home led investigators to bring the kidnapping and murder charges against the couple.
"We were searching the property for any evidence that would lead us to probable cause in this case, a body included," Rhodes said. "Obviously the investigation is still ongoing. The evidence that we located there led to the charge of murder."
Attorneys said to be representing the couple did not immediately return messages Monday. Rhodes said they would be in court next during the week of March 17.
Police and volunteers on foot, all-terrain vehicles and horseback have repeatedly organized searches for the woman, but have found no trace. Her family created a Facebook page to ask for help to find Elvis, offering a $30,000 reward for information that brings her home. Several companies have donated billboard advertising to put up pictures and information on Elvis.
Two other men have been charged with obstructing justice in the case by posting misleading information about it on Facebook. Deputies said in January that those posts created a community reaction that diverted officers investigating Elvis' disappearance.
Elvis is just one of nearly a half-dozen young people who vanished with barely a trace around Myrtle Beach in the past few years. Several have been found. Others, like New York state native Brittanee Drexel - who was 17 when she disappeared during a spring break trip to Myrtle Beach in 2009 - are still unaccounted for.
