I am the News Director for the Townsquare Media/Augusta-Waterville stations and also the host of our public affairs show, "Issues," Sunday mornings! Make sure you come say "Hi" to me at one of our many live local broadcasts.
I drive by the site of the new Kennebec County Superior Court House in Augusta almost every day and it is amazing how quickly it is going up.
Backyard Farms in Madison decided on a 'do over' on their tomatoes. There is an infestation of whiteflies in the greenhouses, that brought them to the decision to destroy its entire crop of half-a-million plants and start over.
Mother Earth News is the magazine giving out the award. Nezinscot Farm sounds like a great place. According to their website Nezinscot Farm began as the first Organic Dairy in the state of Maine. The owners have expanded to have a gourmet food shop, a cafe and Bakery, a cheese shop, a sausage/meats shop and a fiber shop.
I have some hilly areas of my yard and I have been putting in planting like hostas and day lilies. Plants that are hardy and take the abuse and lack of attention they will receive from me and Mother Nature. (I admit it, I am lazy) But the crab grass is taking over my planning areas! And I am crabby about it.
A few weeks ago I was on vacation in the Newport, Rhode Island area. I had gone to the area to see Battleship Cove. But I realized just how close we were to the Newport Mansions, I had to go. I had seen many of them on TV sho
The Kennebec Valley Humane Society has a deal for you, if you have a loving home and have been thinking about adding a cat to your life. For July, August, and September ALL of the adult kitties, 7 months and older, can be adopted with no fee.
This makes me sick to my stomach. What jerk does this to such a beautiful place? I wake up today to see a story in the KJ about vandals doing damage in Vaughan Woods in Hallowell. The 'person or people' who did this spray painted trees and the dam. How do you clean up trees?
USDA Under Secretary was in Maine yesterday talking about increase to the federal Summer Food Service Program. That means more kids will be able to have free meal at sites around Maine.
Huh? What? Ok this clip from Fox News is from a few years ago, but the call out Mr. Rogers as 'evil' and being the reason so many kids feel so 'entitled' now-a-days.

The shortlist for the Prêmio Portugal Telecom de Literatura em Língua Portuguesa was recently announced and is made up of the following books:
Bom dia camaradas, Ondjaki (Agir)
Cantigas do falso Alfonso el Sábio, Affonso Ávila (Ateliê Editorial)
História natural da ditadura, Teixeira Coelho (Iluminuras)
Jerusalém, Gonçalo M. Tavares (Companhia das Letras)
Macho não ganha flor, Dalton Trevisan (Record)
O outro pé da sereia, Mia Couto (Companhia das Letras)
O paraíso é bem bacana, André Sant´Anna (Companhia das Letras)
O roubo do silêncio, Marcos Siscar (7letras editora)
O segundo tempo, Michel Laub (Companhia das Letras)
Por que sou gorda, mamãe?, Cintia Moscovich (Record)
Aside from the e-mail I got from the Ray-Gude Mertin Agency (which represents six of these titles), I'm having a hard time finding any coverage of this Prize in English. (No surprise.)
The rules of this Prize are a bit complicated as well . . . Seems that this Prize is awarded to the best book written in Portuguese and published in Brazil last year, that was originally published outside of Brazil between Jan 1, 2003 and Dec 31, 2006. The winner receives approx. 56,000 euros.
The link above does have descriptions of all the shortlisted titles, and I highly recommend using the Google translator to check these out. I'm particularly intrigued by this book:
Why I am fat, mother? – Cintia Moscovich
It deals with the auto-image crises of the gordinhos. It hates the food that the fattening, but loves the food that gives pleasure to it. These ambiguities are exceeded gradually, gram the gram, garfada the garfada one, chapter the chapter.
Antoine Volodine's vast project (40 plus novels) of what he calls the post-exotic remains mostly untranslated, so for many of us, understanding it remains touched with mystery, whispers from those "who know," and guesswork. That's not to say that, were. . .
It hasn't quite neared the pitch of the waiting-in-line-at-midnight Harry Potter days, but in small bookstores and reading circles of New York City, an aura has attended the novelist Elena Ferrante and her works. One part curiosity (Who is she?),. . .
From the late 1940s to the early 1950s, Egypt was going through a period of transition. The country's people were growing unhappy with the corruption of power in the government, which had been under British rule for decades. The Egyptians'. . .
Miruna is a novella written in the voice of an adult who remembers the summer he (then, seven) and his sister, Miruna (then, six) spent in the Evil Vale with their grandfather (sometimes referred to as "Grandfather," other times as. . .
Kamal Jann by the Lebanese born author Dominique Eddé is a tale of familial and political intrigue, a murky stew of byzantine alliances, betrayals, and hostilities. It is a well-told story of revenge and, what's more, a serious novel that. . .
While looking back at an episode in his life, twenty-year-old Taguchi Hiro remembers what his friend Kumamoto Akira said about poetry.
Its perfection arises precisely from its imperfection . . . . I have an image in my head. I see. . .
The central concern of Sorj Chalandon's novel Return to Killybegs appears to be explaining how a person of staunch political activism can be lead to betray his cause, his country, his people. Truth be told, the real theme of the. . .
Spoiler alert: acclaimed writer Stefan Zweig and his wife Lotte kill themselves at the end of Lauren Seksik's 2010 novel, The Last Days.
It's hard to avoid spoiling this mystery. Zweig's suicide actually happened, in Brazil in 1942, and since then. . .
To call Kjell Askildsen's style sparse or terse would be to understate just how far he pushes his prose. Almost nothing is explained, elaborated on. In simple sentences, events occur, words are exchanged, narrators have brief thoughts. As often as. . .
After a mysterious woman confesses to an author simply known as "R" that she has loved him since she was a teenager, she offers the following explanation: "There is nothing on earth like the love of a child that passes. . .

Just like the tarts we ate every day in Sintra, Portugal. Use metal rather than silicone pan. Spray with oil lightly. Bake on top shelf. These three choices make crispy pastry. Added vanilla paste tspn as well as vanilla essence to custard. Our European relatives loved this pastry - and they are pastry experts. Very little effort for great return.
I genuinely enjoyed making these tarts, though I found that the pastry was too crispy and that it wasn't really what I expected - I was expecting something a little more like puff pasrty, though next time I think I'll just use that, as I think it would be better suited. Delicious!
Didn't have time to make the pastry so used frozen puff instead so can't comment on the pastry. But they worked fantastically and were delicious - 12 was not enough.
I love this recipe. They are so easy and they look great!
You people have to be joking! The pastry was AMAZING!! lol It tasted great gelatoandroses AND bel1! ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!
Try using a puff pastry sheet rolled to 1mm thickness and cut into a circle to fit the muffin pan.
The filling tasted great but the pastry just wasn't up to standard - I'd use a different recipe for the pastry next time.

There's no doubt that Jonny Lang's blood runs blue. And not just because, you know, human blood is blue before it reacts to oxygen... but because he gets the blues. Maybe that's why old-timers like B.B. King lined up to record a tribute album to Lang in 2004 even though Lang was (a) only 23 years old and (b) not dead yet. Ordinarily, Lang should have been the guy playing on tribute albums to these guys, but that's just it: He's that good. Lang's latest album, Turn Around, represents a conversion of multiple sorts, including the religious kind. But it's Lang's blues-flavored pop à la John Mayer that's most concerning. Hopefully, Lang will get back to his roots soon or he'll end up being mentioned in past tense before he's 28 without overdosing or falling out of the sky.
Jonny Lang and Eric Johnson perform at 8 p.m. Wednesday, January 10, at Hard Rock Live, 5747 Seminole Way, Hollywood. Tickets cost $35 to $65. Call 954-523-3309, or visit www.ticketmaster.com.

The evaluation was accurate and fair. That's what Infinite Campus says about the process used to pick them to provide student information services for most schools across the Badger State.
Over the past couple weeks we've heard a lot from Skyward. They're asking Wisconsin residents to encourage the state Department of Instruction to overturn its decision to go with Infinite Campus.
Today, we examined the actual score card that lead Infinite Campus, based in Minnesota, to get the job. That scorecard was released by Infinite Campus.
It ranks 31 different categories such as grading, attendance and technical support. Infinite Campus beat out six different candidates, including Skyward in nearly every category. The process by which the scores were awarded isn't detailed, and the Department of Public Instruction said they won't comment on the process.
There were three categories in which Skyward beat Infinite Campus including; change management, response to intervention and third party software and hardware. All of those categories had Infinite Campus in a close second.
Again, Skyward has appealed the Department of Public Instructions decision to go with Infinite Campus. It's still unclear whether that appeal will change anything or not.
The Wausau School District already uses Infinite Campus' services. NewsChannel 7 is waiting to hear a comment back from the school on how the company has worked for them.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"Ordered the Tender Timeline STD magnets and they came out perfect! My fiance's comment was very tasteful, good job. My girlfriends all said they love it. Highly recommend wow-ing your guests with this selction!!!"
"I had a great experience ordering from this site. The magnet that I received turned out great and I couldn't be more happy. I would definitely recommend them!"
"We have gotten so many compliments on this save the date magnet....it is perfect for our destination wedding to St. Lucia. The online design process was beyond easy, the order shipped the same day I placed it, and the quaility and price were fantastic. I will be ordering from Wedding Paper Divas again, to be sure!"
"I ordered these in the magnet material. The magnets came out great, better than I anticipated. The magnets were thin enough that we didn't have to pay an additional fee to ship them. And the picture came out really clear (this was a concern). The only downfall is that there was a slight white strip around the picture as if it wasn't cut right on the edge of the photo."
"This card was perfect for our save the dates! I changed the color of the banner to "rich red" which came out a hint rust colored at printing, but it looked fine! A few tips, when taking your picture for the card, remember the date boxes are transparent, so try and have a darker background where the boxes will be. And align your photo right of left to avoid having to edit! This is the perfect postcard to accentuate our date of 12/13/14 and we couldn't be happier!"

There are rumors that naked photos of Aksana exists on the internet. While the WWE diva has done a lot of modeling shoots before becoming a professional wrestler, none of them are nude ones. She also has never done a spread for Playboy or any other magazines.
January 1, 2014
Since WWE is expanding the big battle royal to include 40 contestants instead of the typical 30, rumors have surfaced left and right about potential returns at Royal Rumble 2015. Rob Van Dam is among the list of candidates to appear in the match that night. There is a very good chance that he could do a one night only thing and wait until later in the year to make a longer return.
October 9, 2014
While it is something that a lot of fans had assumed was going to happen anyways, Rob Van Dam recently revealed that he will return to WWE again some day. He stated that he has earned the right to dictate his own schedule and will go back whenever he is ready. RVD also stated that he will not work for another wrestling promotion until he returns to WWE.
September 28, 2014
As many already know, Rob Van Dam is taking some time off from WWE. However, that does not mean that he is taking time off from professional wrestling. The former world heavyweight champion is working an independent wrestling show in Florida later on this month. Due to his name value and recent stint with WWE, RVD is able to command a higher pay than the typical performer at these shows.
September 17, 2014
Reports surfaced over the last couple of days that Chris Jericho was going to be working his last show for WWE at Night of Champions 2014 in a match against Randy Orton. There is now speculation that the former world heavyweight champion might stick around shortly after that before leaving, similar to what Rob Van Dam did before taking his break from WWE recently.
September 17, 2014
While there was some confusion on his actual departure from the company because he worked some matches after Summerslam 2014, Rob Van Dam has now confirmed that he is done with WWE. The former world heavyweight champion fulfilled his contractual obligations and is going to take a couple of months off. RVD stated that he will then decide if he wants to make another return or not.
August 30, 2014
Reports going around state that Rob Van Dam finished up his latest stint with WWE during the kickoff match at Summerslam 2014. His departure from the company had been expected since he only agreed to a short term contract. Some are under the belief that this might be the last stint for RVD since the audience has been a bit lackluster towards him this time around.
August 18, 2014
The speculation right now is that Rob Van Dam will be taking another break from WWE after Summerslam 2014. The former world heavyweight champion is not currently booked for the pay per view, but there are talks that management could squeeze him into a match at the last minute. RVD did not exactly get involved in a lot of stories during his latest tenure, so there are talks that this could be his last run with WWE.
August 13, 2014
On Monday Night Raw, fans saw Rob Van Dam being pulled from a Beat the Clock match against Seth Rollins. He was replaced by Heath Slater, who got the surprising win, thanks to distractions from Dean Ambrose. It turns out that WWE did that because RVD is actually not cleared to wrestle. He is still recovering from an unknown injury. For what it's worth, it appears that he might be fine soon, as the former world heavyweight champion is scheduled to head to Australia for the tour.
August 6, 2014
Fans who watched WWE Battleground 2014 noticed that Rob Van Dam did not perform. It has now been revealed that the former world heavyweight champion was forced to miss the pay per view because of an undisclosed injury. An update has been promised by WWE in regards to the nature of the ailment. No word yet on whether or not RVD will be missing time from the road.
July 21, 2014
Some more names have been added to the upcoming WWE Intercontinental Championship battle royal. Big E, Curtis Axel, Dolph Ziggler, Rob Van Dam and Ryback are now in the match at WWE Battleground 2014. They join Kofi Kingston, Damien Sandow, Great Khali and Antonio Cesaro. As of right now, the company is favoring the idea of giving the title to Cesaro.
July 2, 2014
In a very exciting match, Seth Rollins outlasted Dean Ambrose, Dolph Ziggler, Kofi Kingston, Rob Van Dam and Jack Swagger to capture the briefcase at Money in the Bank 2014. WWE wants to continue the war between Ambrose and the Authority, so they had Kane coming out and providing assistance to Rollins. Despite the heel tactic to win the match, the Rollins victory was actually cheered by a good amount of fans.
June 29, 2014
Thanks to the help of Kane, Seth Rollins was able to climb the ladder uninterrupted and win the briefcase at Money in the Bank 2014. The Big Red Monster came to the ring and attacked Dean Ambrose to clear the path. Kofi Kingston, Dolph Ziggler, Jack Swagger and Rob Van Dam were all laid out on the floor during the finale. WWE power couple Triple H and Stephanie McMahon came out afterwards to congratulate Rollins.
June 29, 2014
One of the ideas being tossed around backstage in WWE is to utilize Rob Van Dam as an opponent for Alexander Rusev, who has been tearing through the lower card division. RVD still has some name value and a bit of a connection with the audience, so he can provide the newcomer with some much needed credibility before heading into a feud with John Cena down the line.
June 10, 2014
At Payback 2014, Wade Barrett successfully defended the WWE Intercontinental Championship against Rob Van Dam after picking up the pin fall victory, thanks to the Bull Hammer. The performers placed some doubt in that finish when it appeared that Barrett had injured his arm while smashing into the corner post after RVD ducked away from the move outside the ring.
June 1, 2014
Since the company is hoping to build him back up to the main event level, Wade Barrett is expected to successfully retain the WWE Intercontinental Championship in his match against Rob Van Dam at Payback 2014. The former leader of Nexus will more than likely be fed another challenger next month as well. If things go as planned, he could be a future rival for Daniel Bryan.
May 27, 2014
While the performers avoided major injuries at Extreme Rules 2014, Rob Van Dam did get beat up a bit, thanks largely to his closing segment with Antonio Cesaro. The former world heavyweight champion suffered cuts and bruises to his face after crashing down on to a trash can while doing his signature Five Star Frog Splash finishing move.
May 5, 2014
The triple threat match at Extreme Rules 2014 quickly became a singles match after Jack Swagger was eliminated after a combination of a superplex and flying splash. Antonio Cesaro then won the match by pinning Rob Van Dam after delivering his Neutralizer finishing move on top of a trash can. Zeb Colter and Paul Heyman had minimal involvement.
May 4, 2014
A video of the match between Wade Barrett and Rob Van Dam on Monday Night Raw to determine the new challenger for Big E Langston and the WWE Intercontinental Championship at Extreme Rules 2014.
April 30, 2014
A match being discussed backstage for Extreme Rules 2014 right now involves Jack Swagger, Rob Van Dam and Antonio Cesaro doing a triple threat. WWE wants to put the story line between Swagger and Cesaro on a pay per view, but they are concerned about having two heels in a match, so the idea of RVD being involved has been tossed around.
April 25, 2014
Unless things change backstage in the next few days, it looks like Wade Barrett will be beating Rob Van Dam on Monday Night Raw next week to win himself a shot at Big E Langston and the WWE Intercontinental Championship at Extreme Rules 2014. There are rumors that management will have Antonio Cesaro interfering in the match to cost RVD the victory.

(Adds capital options, share price from second paragraph.)
Nov. 24 (Bloomberg) -- Raiffeisen Bank International AG, eastern Europe's third-biggest lender, cut its medium-term earnings outlook to the bottom of its target range after losses in Hungary sent profit sliding in the third quarter.
The Vienna-based bank said today that return on equity before taxes will be 15 percent, compared with the previous forecast between 15 percent to 20 percent, as its Hungarian unit's "strategic positioning" is reviewed. Net income fell 58 percent to 130 million euros ($174 million) in the three months ended September, though that beat the 99 million-euro average estimate in a Bloomberg survey of nine analysts.
Shares of the Austrian lender recovered recent losses as the bank detailed plans to raise funds and satisfy regulators' capital demands without selling new equity. Raiffeisen has suffered as Hungary imposed Europe's highest tax on banks, which are also being forced to swallow losses on Swiss franc- denominated mortgages to ease the burden on Hungarian borrowers.
"Recently announced policy measures have weakened foreign investors' confidence in the political system," Raiffeisen said in slides presented today.
The bank's loss in Hungary widened to 245 million euros in the quarter, and it increased the money set aside to cover bad debt more than fivefold. Raiffeisen's Austrian peer Erste Group Bank AG, the second-biggest eastern European lender, set aside an extra 450 million euros for bad debt in Hungary in the third quarter and wrote down the value of its unit there.
Closing Gap
Raiffeisen has about 20 projects that could generate as much as 3.6 billion euros of capital and let the bank avoid selling new shares or resorting to state aid, today's presentation showed.
The stock snapped an eight-day decline and rose as much as 7.8 percent in Vienna trading, the most since Oct. 12, as bank shares rallied across Europe. The shares were up 5.9 percent to 14.99 euros at 10:10 a.m. local time, the second-best performer in the Stoxx 600's bank index. The stock is still down more than 60 percent this year.
"Raiffeisen has probably more self-help options than some thought," said Daniele Brupbacher, an analyst at UBS AG, in an e-mailed comment. The fundraising plan "is achievable, but largely depends on market conditions," he added.
Raiffeisen is working with its 79 percent owner, Raiffeisen Zentralbank Oesterreich AG, to comply with demands from the European Banking Authority and close a capital gap that widened by a third to 2.5 billion euros in the quarter.
Capital Swap
Measures outlined today include changes that increase the capital recognized by the EBA by 1.2 billion euros to 1.9 billion euros, asset reductions that would free up another 700 million euros to 900 million euros, and retained earnings of up to 800 million euros. Raiffeisen aims to fill the gap without asking for its second state capital injection in two years.
The measures to create EBA-compliant capital include a swap of 500 million euros to 1 billion euros of non-voting participation capital into either shares or convertible capital, Chief Executive Officer Herbert Stepic said last week. They also include "regulatory capital generation" at RZB and "various other measures," Raiffeisen said, without elaborating.
The asset reductions consist of "selective business reduction" and a "capital and trading book clean-up," it said in the presentation.
Lenders tested last month have until Dec. 25 to submit plans to national supervisors on how to raise reserves or reduce assets to meet a requirement for lenders to hold 9 percent in core reserves by June 2012.

D. Massachusetts Institute of Technology The last decade has seen an explosion in the availability of data. In this thesis, we propose new techniques to leverage these data to tractably model uncertainty and behavior. Specifically, this thesis consists of three parts: In the first part, we propose a novel schema for utilizing data to design uncertainty sets for robust optimization using hypothesis testing. The approach is flexible and widely applicable, and robust optimization problems built from our new data driven sets are computationally tractable, both theoretically and practically. Optimal solutions to these problems enjoy a strong, finite-sample probabilistic guarantee. Computational evidence from classical applications of robust optimization { queuing and portfolio management { confirm that our new data-driven sets significantly outperform traditional robust optimization techniques whenever data is available. In the second part, we examine in detail an application of the above technique to the unit commitment problem. Unit commitment is a large-scale, multistage optimization problem under uncertainty that is critical to power system operations. Using real data from the New England market, we illustrate how our proposed data-driven uncertainty sets can be used to build high-fidelity models of the demand for electricity, and that the resulting large-scale, mixed-integer adaptive optimization problems can be solved efficiently. With respect to this second contribution, we propose new data-driven solution techniques for this class of problems inspired by ideas from machine learning. Extensive historical back-testing confirms that our proposed approach generates high quality solutions that compare with state-of-the-art methods. In the third part, we focus on behavioral modeling. Utility maximization (single agent case) and equilibrium modeling (multi-agent case) are by far the most common behavioral models in operations research. By combining ideas from inverse optimization with the theory of variational inequalities, we develop an efficient, data-driven technique for estimating the primitives of these models. Our approach supports both parametric and nonparametric estimation through kernel learning. We prove that our estimators enjoy a strong generalization guarantee even when the model is misspecified. Finally, we present computational evidence from applications in economics and transportation science illustrating the effectiveness of our approach and its scalability to large-scale instances.

An emerging institutionalist approach of research, in contrast, argues that bubbles can be produced even if rational investors collectively have the resources to correct mispricing, implying that market price doesn't necessarily incorporate true private beliefs. The primary analysis of my dissertation tests the two competing explanations in the context of the Beijing real estate market, where the collective delusion explanation seems particularly appropriate since amateur participants dominate this market. However, my analysis of the unique survey data shows systematic and precise evidence that bubble-era prices do not equal the mean of private valuations, which strongly supports the institutionalist approach. The second analysis of my dissertation is to answer the question that how market price has been driven up in the circumstance that the majority of market participants regarded the properties as overpriced. My results shed light on a novel explanation in the institutionalist approach by showing that the market was driven by market participants who were drawing incorrect inferences about other participants' beliefs-they overestimated the degree of others' support to the price, though they personally did not endorse the price. They therefore chose "dancing"-speculating but exiting from the market before the burst of the bubbles-as the optimal strategy, but it is actually suboptimal in such a situation and fuels the bubble. The third analysis of my dissertation is to understand the logics of market participants' behaviors in depth by examining their opinions on "popular theories"-the theories or models that were widely used to justify the bubble-era price. My analysis shows that, first, these popular theories reflect market participants' perceptions of the institutional influences on the real estate market in this country. Second, market participants' perceptions of the stability of the social and political institutions led them to be tolerant of market inefficiency, though they had fully realized such inefficiency. Theoretical and policy implications are discussed. Thesis: Ph. D., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Sloan School of Management, 2014.; Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.; Includes bibliographical references (pages 83-90). 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z Essays in financial economics http://hdl.handle.net/1721.1/90077 Essays in financial economics Severino Díaz, Felipe This thesis consists of three empirical essays in financial economics, examining the consequences of imperfect financial markets for households, small business and house prices. In the first chapter (co-authored with Meta Brown and Brandi Coates) we explore the effect of personal bankruptcy laws on household debt. Personal bankruptcy laws in the US, and many other countries, protect a fraction of an individual's assets from seizure by unsecured creditors in case of default. An increase in the level of bankruptcy protection diminishes the collateral value of assets, and can therefore reduce borrowers' access to credit. However, it might also increase the demand for credit especially from risk averse borrowers by improving risk-sharing. Using changes in the level of protection across US states and across time, we show that bankruptcy protection laws increase borrowers' holdings of unsecured credit, but leave secured debt -mortgage and auto loans- unchanged. At the same time we find an increase in the interest rate for unsecured credit, but not for other types of credit. The effect is predominantly driven by lower-income areas and regions with higher home ownership concentration, for which an increase in the level of protection explains between 10% and 30% of the growth in their credit card debt. Using detailed individual data, we find no measurable increase in delinquency rates of households in the subsequent three years. These results suggest that changes in bankruptcy protections did not reduce the aggregate level of household debt, but they might have affected the composition of borrowing. In the second chapter (co-authored with Manuel Adelino and Antoientte Schoar) we document the role of the collateral lending channel in small business employment and self-employment in the period before the financial crisis of 2008. Small businesses in areas with a bigger run up in prices experienced a stronger increase in employment than large firms in the same industries. This increase in small business employment was more pronounced in industries that need little startup capital and can be financed more easily using housing as collateral. The increase is not limited to the non-tradable sector and is also present in manufacturing industries, in particular in those that ship goods over long distances. This indicates that this channel is separate from the aggregate demand channel by which home equity based borrowing leads to higher demand and employment creation. In aggregate, the collateral lending channel explains 15-25 % of employment variation. In the third chapter (co-authored with Manuel Adelino and Antoinette Schoar) we use exogenous changes in the conforming loan limit as an instrument for lower cost of financing, and show that cheaper credit significantly increases house prices. Houses that become eligible for financing with a conforming loan show an increase in value of 1.16 dollars per square foot (for an average price per square foot of 220 dollars). These coefficients are consistent with a local elasticity of house prices to interest rates that is lower than some previous studies proposed (below 10). In addition, loan to value ratios around the conforming loan limit deviate significantly from the common 80 percent norm, which confirms that it is an important factor in the financing choices of home buyers. In line with our interpretation, the results are stronger in the first half of our sample (1998-2001) when the conforming loan limit was more important, given that other forms of financing were less common and substantially more expensive. Results are also stronger in zip codes where personal income growth is low or declining, and in regions with lower elasticity of housing supply. Thesis: Ph. D., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Sloan School of Management, 2014.; Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.; Includes bibliographical references. 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z Working with your hands : essays on craft occupations in India http://hdl.handle.net/1721.1/90072 Working with your hands : essays on craft occupations in India Ranganathan, Aruna Essay 1 : Professionalization And Market Closure: The Case Of Plumbing In India. Professionalization has long been understood as a process of establishing market closure and monopoly control over work; however, in this article I present a case in which professionalization erodes rather than establishes occupational closure. I demonstrate how the Indian Plumbing Association (IPA), a newly formed organization of internationally trained plumbing contractors and consultants, has used the rhetoric and structures of professionalization to threaten pre-existing ethnicity-based closure enjoyed by traditional plumbers from the eastern state of Orissa. By employing a discourse of professionalism and by instituting codes, training, and certification programs, professionalization in this case has undermined Orissan plumbers by changing the basis of plumbing knowledge and opening entry to outsiders. I conclude by suggesting that professionalization is a modern trope that does not necessarily imply monopoly benefits and higher job quality for all members of an occupational group. Essay 2 : The Price is Right? Ethnographic and Field-Experimental Evidence of Price-Setting from the Sale of Handicraft Products in Southern India. Scholars of economic sociology have shown that sellers often vary prices among different buyers for short-term monetary gains or long-term relational gains, but they have failed to consider how sellers' relationship with their products can affect their price-setting behavior even in the absence of such gains. This paper, by studying how artisans and traders in a wood and lacquerware cluster in India vary prices across buyers, demonstrates the importance of product attachment in understanding price discrimination. Drawing on a field audit study where trained buyers purchase identical products from artisans and traders, the paper documents that artisans of their products beyond the point of sale, even if these buyers are wealthy, in contrast to traders who price in accordance with buyers' willingness-to-pay. These findings are consistent with ethnographic evidence documenting artisans' and traders' varying attachment to their products as indicated by their investment in the products, meaning ascribed to the products and internal standards for the products. By introducing the idea of product attachment, this paper contributes to our understanding of price-setting and economic decision-making more broadly, while also offering a unique methodological model that combines experimental and ethnographic research. Essay 3 : Export-Oriented Industrialization and Technological Frames of Government Officials, Workers and Capitalists: Evidence from a Mechanization Project in India. Export-oriented industrialization (EOI) is a common strategy for economic development in developing economies that can be achieved by increasing exports in large manufacturing sectors or smaller-scale, cluster-based industries. A key component of the EOI strategy, whether in the context of large- or small-scale production, is technological upgrading of manufacturing practices to facilitate exports and boost worker earnings. While the literature has recognized the salience of technological upgrading, it has focused predominantly on successful cases, thus overlooking problems in the implementation and adoption of such technology that could impede exports. In this paper, I draw on an ineffective export-driven mechanization initiative in a handicraft cluster in southern India to illustrate how key stakeholders might adopt incompatible "technological frames" in making sense of new technology, thus hindering the expansion of exports. I describe how government officials in this case viewed the technology brought into the sector through the frame of "status," workers perceived the technology using a "creative control" frame, whereas capitalists saw the same technology as being a source of "profits." These mismatched frames led to discordant actions by the stakeholders, resulting in limited adoption of the technology, weak exports and little improvements in worker earnings. By highlighting a key condition under which export-driven technology projects might fail, namely when key stakeholders' technological frames are misaligned, this paper draws important implications for the many developing economies using EOI as their primary industrialization strategy.

My Mom is 87 and has a will that was signed by both her and my Dad when he was alive, estate should be equally divided between all 5 children. The estate including house is probably worth $75,000. Does my Mom need another will just in her name? Should we set up a Living Trust?
Any ideas would be much appreciated.
The answer will depend on how the house is titled. There are ways to avoid costly probate by spending a little money on probate planning in advance. I would contact Ward and Lee in Vinita at 918-323-9100 or another attorney in your area that handles probate law and speak with them. They will probably offer a free consultation which you should consider.
You don't mention whether your mother also lives in Oklahoma, and the state of her residence will make a difference in how your question is answered. The smartest thing to do is to consult a qualified estate planning lawyer who practices where your mother lives. Many attorneys do not charge for the initial consultation, and the advice you will receive could be invaluable.
To get started, if your mother does live in Oklahoma, I suggest you consult the information about the probate process that is published by the Oklahoma Bar Association through the link provided here.

Facebook at Work and Google Wave
Remember Google Wave?
Sure you do. You probably even recall nagging your friends and contacts for a (at the time) coveted invitation to join the Google Wave beta.
Google Wave was going to be the next big, big, transformative thing in workplace collaboration technology. It was the re-imagination of email, chat, file sharing, and 17 other things - packaged in a completely new way. It was, for a little while, exciting and cool. Most of the folks who get paid lots of money to prognosticate on such matters expected Google Wave to become, if not truly transformative, at least an important and eventual essential component in the enterprise software tool set.
Fast forward about a year (give or take) from the launch of Wave and somehow, for some reason, those optimistic forecasts about the importance of Wave turned out to be wrong. Wave did not catch on, at least not enough, and not as a workplace essential tool, and Google pulled the plug on the adventurous project. (Still, mad about that, personally.)
I have not thought about Google Wave all that much in the ensuing years, (man, it seems like just yesterday, but it has literally been YEARS since Wave was shuttered), until the recent announcement and reactions to the reports that Facebook is planning on releasing its own workplace collaboration technology, which most are simply calling 'Facebook at Work'.
But unlike Google Wave, which was greeted with (generally) optimistic predictions about its importance and relevance to work and workplaces, the early reaction to the notion of 'Facebook at Work' has been almost universally pessimistic and negative.
The arguments against the success of 'Facebook at Work' are numerous and expected:
People don't want to mix personal online socializing and networking with work.
Facebook can't be trusted to secure sensitive and proprietary corporate data.
Enterprise social networking tools, ironically often referred to as 'Facebook for the Enterprise', have been around for years, and have never really, truly caught on in a substantial way.
That kind of thing.
I have no idea if Facebook at Work will even be released as a product (Facebook has not made any public comment on these reports), much less become a successful, popular, and essential workplace collaboration technology.
Maybe it will. And maybe it will fail spectacularly like Google Wave. And maybe it will never even be a 'real' product.
Who knows?
But I would also suggest the litany of commenters and pundits who have already written off Facebook at Work as a potential important enterprise tech solution also have no real idea either.
Google Wave was going to be the next big thing. Until is wasn't. Facebook at Work has no chance of infiltrating the workplace. Until it does. Or maybe it won't.
I think you get what I am driving at by now. No one, not me, or any of the smart people at TechCrunch or Business Insider or CNet or anywhere else really knows.
So stop worrying or thinking about Facebook at Work for the time being. If and when it ever is released, then make your own evaluation.
And while you are waiting, maybe send an Email to Google to see if they will reconsider resurrecting Wave. I liked that thing.
