Think Getting a Mortgage is Hard? Try Financing Affordable Housing27 Jul 2016 | 8:36 amFinancing affordable housing isn't easy. Without subsidies, it's almost impossible for developers to build homes that are affordable to low- or extremely low-income families. That's because lenders loan money for housing development based on the property's expected income. When rents are set to affordable levels, there's a huge gap between what's needed to build and the money lenders and investors provide. A new interactive tool from the Urban Institute and the National Housing Conference illustrates how complex affordable housing can be. New, affordable apartment buildings—albeit not enough of them—are built. So how do those developers do it? The short answer is creative financing and a lot...
The 10 Most Walkable Neighborhoods in the Midwest (Mid-Size City Edition)27 Jul 2016 | 6:00 amWhat better typifies the Midwest than walking down Main Street in the summer to buy a cone at the local ice cream shop? Idyllic as it may sound, there are a lot of places where that scene is possible — and where you can pick up your dry cleaning and some groceries on the way home. Which are the most walkable neighborhoods in the Midwest? As it turns out, most of them are in Chicago … but that's no fun. Instead, we decided to look at mid-sized cities, ones that have a population under 300,000, but are large enough to have neighborhoods over 1,000 people. Neighborhoods that hit both marks made our rankings. As for the age-old question of what qualifies as the Midwest, we went with this from Bill Rankin...

BASEL, Switzerland — The world's leading central bankers vowed Monday to keep inflation under control as energy costs surge and food prices touch record highs due to strong demand from fast-growing countries like China and Brazil.
Sharp increases in living expenses and a spike in fuel prices caused by the Middle Eastern uprisings have policymakers worried that inflation could become a drawn-out problem.
But whereas the European Central Bank has signaled a rate hike is due soon, others like the Federal Reserve are worried that economic growth is not yet strong enough to cope with higher borrowing costs.
"There is amongst central bankers what I would say a solid unity of purpose, namely to continue to anchor solidly inflation expectations," said European Central Bank chief Jean-Claude Trichet.
He noted, however, that does not mean they will take the same decisions — Trichet last week shocked markets by saying eurozone interest rates could be hiked as soon as April.
It is mostly high-growth countries like China, which escaped the worst of the financial and debt crises, that have been tightening monetary policy in recent months.
"In our view, global growth is confirmed at a relatively robust pace, driven by emerging countries, which are dynamic, and by the confirmation of the recovery in advanced economies," he said.
"The threat of inflation is particularly visible in these emerging economies."
He spoke on behalf of 30 central bankers that meet in Switzerland every other month at the Bank for International Settlements in Basel and represent 82 percent of the global economy. The group includes Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke and his Chinese counterpart, central bank chief Zhou Xiaochuan.
As chairman of the Global Economy Meeting, Trichet noted there was broader concern about rising inflationary pressures than at their gathering in January.
He said central bankers also agreed on the importance of "the progressive reduction of imbalances" — evening out some countries' large trade surpluses with others' deficits and making currency markets flexible. That has been a hot topic of debate in recent years, with the U.S. accusing China of boosting its exports by keeping its currency weak.
Trichet said the recovery from the global financial crisis is helped in large part by the dynamic expansion of emerging economies.
"It is clear that at the level of the global economy we see this positive feature, but uncertainty remains. And we consider it very important that fiscal policies would be sound," Trichet said.
He said the group did not specifically discuss the violence in Libya or the wider Middle East, though it consulted on the price of oil, commodities and food.
Oil prices swung to their highest level in two and half years on Monday as the violence escalated in Libya.
Trichet suggested that incentives to boost food and agricultural supplies could ease price increases, but did not offer specifics.

Why John Farrell picked Brian Butterfield to become Red Sox third base coach
|10.31.12 at 7:01 am ET
John Farrell barely knew Brian Butterfield when Farrell took over as Blue Jays manager two years ago, but that didn't mean he didn't know of him.
Butterfield — the Maine native with a passion for the New England Patriots and University of Michigan football — had built a reputation around baseball during his time with the Yankees, the Diamondbacks and, for the past 10 seasons, the Blue Jays as a meticulous baseball instructor with a unique clubhouse energy.
That Farrell understood. The rest he quickly would learn.
And that's why Butterfield was officially hired to be the Red Sox third base coach Tuesday.
"It was actually before going in there," said Farrell when asked Tuesday night about when he realized the value of the 54-year-old. "When you sit across the field 18 times and watch how they interact with players doing early work, watch the decision-making in the third-base box and you see the energy in which he carries himself, those were all evident across the field even without knowing Brian as a person."
But while Farrell understood Butterfield's abilities while viewing the coach as an opponent, it wasn't until they shared the same clubhouse that the manager could truly digest all that came with Butterfield.
"For sure," Farrell said when asked if Butterfield's energy and attitude weighed into the decision to bring him aboard. "He's positive. He always looks for ways to make a positive impact on a player, whether it's with a fundamental technique or talking through the game about challenges they might encounter. This is someone who even in his post-playing career he hasn't forgotten how difficult this game is and how fast this game can move. At the same time, this is one of the most prepared coaches I've ever been around.
"The amount of time and energy he puts in video review, the attention of detail which was evidenced by the number of over-shifts we employed the last two years, and he has a creative mind which he carries to the personnel that we have. We had an athletic third baseman [Brett Lawrie] in Toronto, so we could be more aggressive. After conversations with Brian about how we prepare against certain opponents, we weren't going to limit that creativity, and in the end it really allowed us to save a high number of runs."
Not hurting Butterfield's candidacy was his experience manning the third base coaching box at Fenway Park. Since joining the Jays in 2002, Butterfield has coached third in 83 Fenway Park games.
"Without a doubt," Farrell said regarding prioritizing the importance of Butterfield's familiarity with Fenway. "This is a difficult park to be a third base coach in. It became very clear to me in working with him in our first series in Fenway Park together, the way he talked about the characteristics with the ballpark, what he needed from baserunners and stressing certain points in advance meetings with position players, he's very detailed. He keeps notes on every ballpark in which we play. That preparation and experience go a long way for an easy request of Brian to come join the Red Sox. I know one thing, he's excited, we're excited and we're fortunate to add a quality, experienced third base coach."
Farrell said the Red Sox will continue interviewing coaches this week, starting with pitching coach candidates Rick Peterson and Juan Nieves. With Torey Lovullo and Butterfield in the fold (although Butterfield is a candidate for the Blue Jays managerial position), the Sox still need to fill out their pitching coach, hitting coach, first base coach and bullpen coach spots.

For example on adding a subform the book fails to say that you have to ensure that you have the "Use Control Wizards" clicked. I spent ages trying to figure out why the wizard wasn't appearing. Now, maybe I'm a bit stupid, but time and therefore step-by-step instructions are of the essence. A web search sorted me out.
Also, "You can create a linked form" it says by clicking the "Linked Form" option. Where is this option? Where is this link? Another web search to crack this one.
There are loads of omissions like this which really slow you down
How do you change input field lengths on a form? You don't know - and I don't know - and I won't find out using this book (I gather from another web search you have to create the form manually)
The screen shots, which could be really nifty, are so small as to be almost useless without a magnifying glass.
Well, I'm 2 days into this project and I have not achieved much. Oh, I have 20+ years in IT, and I have database skills I just needed bringing up to speed on this. Seriously, save yourself money and buy yourself a proper Access book - I'm just going off to find one.
For what I needed to do - create a database of Customer Reports from the Template available from Microsoft I needed a little help. This fulfilled my requirements easily and cheaply.
I have an existing knowledge of Access but have not used it for many years (and had not used the 2007 version) so it was great to refresh my knowledge and even gave me ideas of how to better organise the data for the project I am building.
I like the easy layout of the book, it is in colour and not chunks of text, which make it easier than a lot of IT books to read.
Wouldn't recommend this to a beginner, but good for someone who wants a refresher course.

Flavor explosion! I did add 1 garlic clove. I used 3 eggs which equaled 3/4 cup in place of the substitute. I added cooked chorizo. Topped with Lime Crema for Chili, Tacos, Fajitas and More, fresh sliced avocado, Leah's Fresh Salsa and enjoyed a cup of and Mexican Caramel Coffee. WT 5 Thanks
This made a delightful Sunday Breakfast! I subbed 4 extra-large eggs in place of the egg substitute and topped it with a bit of cilantro. Served alongside a cup of Mexican Coffee we were energized to start the day! Viva Las Reynas! Made for ZWT . Thanks Paula.
After learning your recipe was published I had to try it to celebrate for you. I wasn't disappointed, but I never am with your recipes. This was easy to put together, utilized leftover roast, and best of all was a flavorful breakfast. Way to go PaulaG! =)
Great breakfast! Flavourful and easy. Really a 'it hit the spot' type of meal. Took a cue from Rita and also added a little garlic for extra flavour. Served with hot, buttered toast and lots of tea. Thanks, Paula.
Wow! Delicious! I am a huge fan of Migas, I am practically addicted, and this was a great way to prepare them in a healthier way. A couple of subtitutions and additions: I did add some taco chips to the mix and used ground hot sausage. Topped with Jalapenos and green jalapeno sauce, it made for a wonderful Breakfast. Thanks Paula!
i used real eggs and it came out great . thank you for posting. dee
This was a most delightful recipe. This was a first for this type dish, and I will tell you right now....I love the corn tortillas in this. I cut this down to 1 serving and didn't want to chop that little bit of onion, so I just put in a little onion powder....other than that, it was made exactly as directed.
Made this for Sunday Brunch, easy tasty recipe - I made it with real eggs (3). I used hot salsa and cheddar cheese. Thanks PaulaG for a keeper.
I live in Texas, where Migas are served often for breakfast. However, I've never tried making them at home. This is a great recipe and was very easy to prepare! The only change I made was using 4 large eggs instead of the egg beaters. I also omited the cheese, because I didn't have any on hand, but next time will add a little Monterey Jack cheese! I used finely chopped leftover brisket and it was delicious! I will definitely be making these Migas again. Thanks PaulG!

Here's a great piece, Learning Empathy From Robots: How MST3K Explained My Parents, from Leah Schnelbach over at tor.com about why she's thankful for the Robots on Mystery Science Theatre:
This week marks a milestone for all of humanity—Sunday was the 25th anniversary of the first broadcast of Mystery Science Theater 3000. The first ever episode, "The Green Slime" was shown on a small Minneapolis cable-access channel called KTMA on November 24, 1988…There are many things to say about MST3K, (and eventually I plan to say all of them) but since this is Thanksgiving week I wanted to thank the show's writers for helping me with a very specific issue I had as a kid…

I take inspiration from my parents: Amitabh Bachchan
Mumbai: Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan says that he takes inspiration from his parents. He said even today his parents inspire him.
"I limit my inspiration to my parents...to my father and mother. My father was a poet and my mother was from a Sikh family and it was very unusual for them to get married in the city of Allahabad," Bachchan said Thursday during an interview with G2: The Global Gujarati magazine`s editor Abhinav Aggarwal.
Talking about his relationship with his father, the actor said that he regrets not being able to spend more time with him.
"I live with his works and books. I regret not spending enough time with him. When he passed away I was devastated. He passed away when I was 62," he said.
Bachchan referred to his mother as being "strong willed" and "protective". "My mother was strong willed and protective. She was beautiful," he said.
The actor said that he is happy that his entire family consisting of wife Jaya Bachchan, son Abhishek Bachchan and daughter-in-law Aishwarya Rai Bachchan stay under one roof.
"It is convenient that all of us stay under one roof. I think communication is important and I insist that we keep communicating. This brings a feeling of togetherness," he said.

Twenty20 competition under way
Moama wins closest match of the round, while BLU causes upset.November 12, 2012 4:53am
Goulburn Murray Cricket A grade sides took to various pitches on Thursday for the first Twenty20 round of the season.
The closest match of the round was played out between Echuca South and Moama.
Doubling as the home team's sponsors night, a healthy crowd watched the game as Moama scored 5/140 from its 20 overs.
Led by captain Cameron Parker, who scored yet another half-century with 52, guest player Tyler Jones (37) and Jake Toll (18 not out) helped push the total along.
Stewart Moar bowled well early but a 22-run final over bumped his figures out to 2/39, while Mitch McMullan was the most economical with 1/18.
Other wicket-takers were Mark Peterson and Keith Chalmers.
In reply, South chased hard early with Neil Geltch (33), McMullan (17) and Matt Key (30) providing the runs, but the team ultimately fell 22 runs short.
Brandt Gladman finished with 2/31, while Daniel Van Tubbergh, James Scambler and Jack Harland took the other wickets.
The only team to win after batting second, Echuca restricted the home side to 6/100, with Brendan Prendergast and Josh Preston each taking 2/18, while Taylor Beard claimed one wicket.
In reply, Max Beard was dismissed for 19, with Prendergast (37 not out) and Taylor Beard (39 not out) guiding the team to victory in the 18th over.
Winning the toss and batting, Cooma started brightly with Michael Hill (38) and Sam Spicer (43) getting among the runs, while Tim Kelly chipped in with a handy 37 lower down the order as the team finished on 7/168.
For Rushworth, Matt Cruz (3/24) and Mick Eveleigh (3/23) were the pick of the bowlers, while Kasey Duncan (1/27) was also good.
In reply, the away side struggled to get going with only Eveleigh (25) and Peter Francis (39) making an impact as the team finished on 5/94.
Zac Cerrone (3/19), Wil Jackson (1/15) and Liam Barrett (1/7) were the pick of the bowlers.
Winning the toss and batting, Nick Breslin (40) and Trevor Watts (21) put on 60 runs for the first wicket, with Ryan Boswell (29) and Brendan White (17 not out) providing late runs, as they totalled 6/122.
Ash Hughes provided the highlight with the ball, taking 2/10 from his four overs, while Wayne Cowley (2/17), Brett Hughes (1/23) and Wade Summers (1/32) took the other wickets.
In reply, Ash Hughes (33) and Michael Coyne (26) were the only batsmen to reach double figures against a restrictive Fire Brigade line-up as it finished on 6/91.
Heath Barnett took 1/8 in his four overs, while Paul Newman (1/4 from three overs) and Breslin (1/10 from three overs) were just as effective.
Brett Andison was the other wicket-taker.
BLU scored 6/129 after batting first, with good knocks from Ben McPhee (38), Ben Docking (33) and Josh Cairns (24), before restricting the Tigers to 7/114.
Jacob Gardiner finished with 3/17, while Docking (2/20) and Shannon Bish (1/12) were the other wicket-takers.

Turns Out The Government Has Been Monitoring Our Social Networks Too
Since 2010, the National Security Administration has examined U.S. citizens' social networking accounts, according to The New York Times.
The National Security Administration has been monitoring Americans' social networking sites to determine their social connections, relationships and locations since 2010. According to The New York TImes, the practice was used "to help the agency 'discover and track' connections between intelligence targets overseas and people in the United States." The N.S.A. refused to disclose how many citizens have been monitored through social networks, and documents obtained by Times don't include any mention of restrictions placed on the use of the data.

Motorsports Marketing Forum: Schumacher Notes NHRA Has Become A Business
Published December 5, 2013
LOOKING TO THE FUTURE: Asked what his plan would be should his Army partnership end, Schumacher said, "Honestly, I don't know if I would want to drive. If the Army said, 'We're done, we don't want to race anymore,' I might just be done. I think it's a great way to end. It's been an amazing career and I've done so many things. Not that I don't want to drive for 10 more years and run a race team, I just don't know that you can replace that." However, if he did have to replace the Army, Schumacher said it would "have to be something tough." He said, "I'd have a hard time getting out of the car after the Army and talking about Pampers. It just wouldn't go right."
OWNERSHIP FUTURE? The 43-year-old Schumacher drives for his father's team, Don Schumacher Racing, and said owning his own team down the road might be a possibility. "I'd love to own a race team, I really would," he said. "I think I would be good at motivating and selecting, which is really what it's all about."

I provide couples therapy, including strengthening relationships and rebuilding marriages after an affair."
"my ideal client is one that is motivated to work on themselves ."
"As a therapist I aim to create a quiet, comfortable, and safe environment for my clients. I want them to feel that they may say anything at all, without permission, without being judged, and without feeling stigmatized. I also want clients to be full participants in therapy: this is your treatment, not mine.

"I have the clinical skills and years of professional experience to successfully help an dividual who is either directly or indirectly affected by addictions, mood disorders, traumatic experiences and other less intense issues of daily living. I prefer a strength based model of "treatment", and will help a client to find his or her strengths if they are not easily identifiable at the beginning of therapy.

I have worked with children in both outpatient and home-based settings, helping them to understand and manage their feelings and behaviors in healthy ways. I specialize in attention and behavioral disorders, mood disorders and life transitions. Working with kids both individually and with their families builds a supportive foundation for them and helps them succeed. I enjoy being a part of empowering children and adolescents to make healthy decisions and seeing the pride on their faces when they succeed."
"I am a Neuropsychologist who evaluates individuals with attention disorders, learning disabilities, autism spectrum disorders and other neuro-cognitive issues (e.g, Tourette's Syndrome, Trichotillomania, OCD, etc.). My therapy clients include children, adolescents, and young adults whose anxiety, depression, and social/emotional adjustment problems may be exacerbated by their underlying cognitive/language processing differences. I use a cognitive behavioral approach which I adapt to the specific processing abilities of and obstacles faced by the individuals with whom I work."
"The journey towards healing and wholeness can be challenging. Anchor Counseling Center can give you a safe place to take some of the steps towards your goals.
