"Boys of Spring - The Movie," follows Tim on his journey with the iconic, hard-luck, Chicago Cubs as both he and the Cubs attempt to reach their ultimate dreams.

The film is full of behind the scenes, never-before-seen footage shot by Tim as he worked next to Cubs legends like Harry Caray and Ron Santo. As Tim puts it, "There's more to a team than the games they play."

"Boys of Spring - The Movie" is nearing final production; however funding is needed for official release of this unique documentary to fans. Tim says, "Kickstarter seemed to be the best way to get Cubs fans involved in the production of the film. As a die-hard Cubs fan myself, I know how important our team's legacy and history is. Kickstarter gives fans a rare opportunity to contribute to that history."

To be a part of "Boys of Spring - The Movie," fans can donate as little as $10 using an Amazon.com account. As a thank you, fans will receive a copy of the Boys of Spring documentary before its official release next spring. There are a range of donation levels and rewards available on Kickstarter.com, including Cubs memorabilia and your name in the movie's credits. With a significant donation ($3,000+), Tim will personally announce your child's little league game, speak at an event, or name you as a producer of the film.

Boys of Spring isn't about a team winning or losing. It's about something deeper. An examination of life on its winding path and how, in spite of perceived failures, there is happiness and success. Cub fans will find joy this season and for years to come with the Boys of Spring film by donating and claiming their place in Cubs history. An epic World Series drought can't stop the faithful Cubs followers, who know better than anyone - "There's always next spring!"

(ISBN: 978-1-58909-788-9), a new book just released by Bookstand Publishing, documents shocking alleged corruption at the Arizona State Board for Charter Schools.

"You will view a Board filled with unethical decisions, corrupt rules, and poisonous policies," says author Dr. Shaloma Gray, an education consultant, adjunct professor, and founder of Dove Academy College Preparatory school, a charter school that was shut down by the Arizona State Board for Charter Schools.

"You will read about a Board member with a vendetta against Dove Academy, and how his alleged dirty and corrupt machinations left children hurting, teachers jobless, and a host of creditors and others wondering what happened to the school."

"Corruption at the Arizona State Board for Charter Schools?" provides:
* An overview of the policies, procedures and laws of the Governor, the Board, and the staff that are failing the charter schools of Arizona.
* The true, full story of Dove Academy College Preparatory school and why it was forced to close its doors.
* Wisdom and warnings for anyone looking for information about opening and operating a charter school.

"The entire Board saga has gone on for more than 16 years as of this writing," says Dr. Gray. "In its wake remains one of the most unprofessional, unjust, and radically designed charter school systems in the country. I hope this book will inspire Arizona's political officials and charter holders to demand reform and fairness for all charter school owners."

"Corruption at the Arizona Board for Charter Schools?" retails for $15.95 plus shipping and handling, and is available at:

New statistics show home sales in the metro Phoenix area growing at a rate not seen since before the Arizona foreclosure crisis in 2005.

With just over 10,000 home sales in the Phoenix area in March, and nearly 1,500 of those sales occurring on Arizona foreclosure homes, the Phoenix foreclosure market is heating up. The new sales statistics are the latest in a string of signs that show the Arizona housing market could be on the road to recovery.

"Demand is starting to increase in the Phoenix area, and that's certainly a good sign," remarks James Foxx, a chief business analyst with ForeclosureDeals.com. "And a lot of foreclosure properties are almost brand new. There was a lot of new development before the crash, and now buyers are getting some amazing deals on brand new homes. Arizona has a lot of value for foreclosures."

Foxx says that buyers are attracted to foreclosure properties because they offer huge discounts from traditional home prices, often as high as 50 percent or more. The state as a whole is seeing increased interest in foreclosures in Arizona, and lenders are reporting higher than normal turnout at foreclosure sales and auctions.

"The economy is beginning to rebound, and Arizona is a great place to live," remarked Foxx. "Buyers are just regaining confidence in the market. We've been waiting for this to happen. There are great foreclosure homes going for great prices."

While increased competition for foreclosures in Arizona will undoubtedly cause prices to rise, Foxx points out that with plenty of foreclosure homes currently available, the time is right to buy.

Arizona also holds a high number of Fannie Mae foreclosures. These government foreclosures are in high demand, because they are often in better condition and upkeep than other foreclosure houses. Almost half of Fannie Mae's foreclosure homes are in the hotspots of Arizona, Florida, Georgia, and Ohio.

"Fannie Mae has a lot foreclosures in Arizona, and a lot of those are multi-family foreclosure units. If you're an investor, foreclosures can offer a lot of value, especially in Phoenix. Multi-families make great income properties."

With some of the lowest prices available on real estate in the country, Foxx expects interest in Arizona foreclosures to rise as the Arizona housing market continues to recover.

PHOENIX, Ariz., Feb. 28 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- CONIX Systems, Inc. (CONIX), a leading international provider of payment processing solutions to the financial services industry announces CSI: Payments, a product suite that includes Fraud Detective™, the solution created to help banks and payment processors be more effective in fighting fraud, while operating more cost effectively and improving customer service, Dupe Detective™; the duplicate detection solution used by more top 25 U.S. banks; and EIRD™, the enterprise-wide, high-performance image replacement document solution.

Together, Fraud Detective and Dupe Detective enable the Day 1 identification and disposition of duplicate payments, fraud suspects and other critical exceptions in a common rules-based review. These products enable banks to improve risk management, provide enhanced protection for the bank and the customer from fraud, and promote a solid return on investment.

CONIX will demonstrate CSI: Payments to attendees of BAI Payments Connect 2011, March 7 - 11, 2011 at Booth #506.

"The potential impact of fraud on the payments stream in the U.S. and its neighbors is beginning to be better understood by risk management personnel, especially in the very real world of coordinated cyber-attacks," said CONIX's CEO Mike Charles. "Fraud isn't just bad for your bank - fraud is bad for banking."

Fraud Detective is a simple, yet powerful, solution that links a bank's fraud detection and other exception processing solutions closer to the transactions' point of entry into the payments stream. By finding and identifying potentially fraudulent transactions earlier, Fraud Detective mitigates risk, enhances workflow, and enables protection both for the bank and its customers.

Fraud Detective processes payments from all payment sources and channels, including image exchange, ACH and RDC. The solution integrates with the bank's legacy systems for early identification of potentially fraudulent payments, as well as other critical exception types. Day 1 identification avoids incorrect postings to banks' customer accounts and enables loss prevention.

"CONIX talks with banks and processors every day about their challenges. Among those is the realization that even a small percentage of fraud, in a high-volume environment, can have a devastating impact on their reputation and profitability. Fraud Detective provides peace of mind to bankers in the face of sobering developments in the payments landscape," said CONIX's Managing Director of Sales, Steve Fortson.

"CONIX is uniquely qualified to intercept payments fraud in Day 1 while keeping pace with high-volume Day 1 payment processing systems. We have been providing Day 1 payments processing software and services to the top tier financial institutions and payments processors for nearly two decades. We have developed and delivered server-based solutions to the industry that are unsurpassed in performance and quality because we listen closely to our customers," said Charles.
