New co-housing community bucks market trends
|| Print |
|Linda Baker
|Friday, May 11, 2012
Last fall I wrote a short piece about suburban housing developers moving into the inner city after the housing collapse and building high density infill houses instead of single-family subdivisions. I ended the story with a quote from Eli Spevak, a Portland developer who had been building such small-scale community projects for a number of years. Responding to my question about big-box developers encroaching on local territory, Spevak said their presence does re-enact a bit of the "local coffee shop vs. national coffee shop" dynamic. But as a proponent of high-density, low-impact living, he didn't want to complain. "I wish there were more," he said.
I caught up with Spevak again yesterday, the day after he signed a $4.4 million construction loan from Pacific Continental Bank, the lender's first new for-sale project since early 2007, according to Charlotte Boxer, Pacific Continental's president and director of commercial real estate. The loan will help finance Spevak's latest project, Cully Grove, a 16-unit co-housing development in Northeast Portland. So far 15 units have pre-sold, no easy task in a city where there are virtually no new, for-sale multifamily developments.
Spevak attributes his ability to pre-sell the project to interest in cooperative living and "a great group of buyers," about half of which are empty nesters and half families with children. The development consists of three 1,800-square-foot detached homes, which sold for about $420,000-$450,000. The remaining units are 1,500-square-foot duplexes and triplexes, which sold for about $320,000-$370,000.
The two-acre lot, which Spevak and his partner Zach Parrish purchased for $800,000, will also include community gardens, courtyards, an outdoor kitchen and small common house.
Spevak, who will break ground on Cully Grove this weekend, pointed to evidence that other alternative housing types are on the rise in Portland.
More specifically, the city is experiencing a boom in accessory dwelling units: self-contained homes built on the same lot as a single-family home. According to city of Portland data, these "ADUs" typically account for about 1 percent of new residential units. That figure increased to about 6 percent in 2010. The city expects to issue about 100 ADU permits this fiscal year, up from 70 last year.
Of course, the city's decision in 2010 to waive system development charges for ADUs may have something to do with the increase. Those charges typically amount to $8,000-$12,000, making most people say "forget about it," said Spevak, who lobbied for the waiver. The city also voted to increase the ADU size limits from one third to three quarters of the size of the main house.
In the years since the crash, anxious homeowners and homebuilders have wondered when the housing market will come back. But perhaps a more pertinent question is what form it will take when it does. Collectively, the success of Cully Grove, the increase in ADUs, the shift in city policy and yes, the decision on the part of big box developers to retool their projects for the inner city, all suggests that at least for a segment of the population, the future of housing is dense, flexible and more than a little neighborly.

Every summer, we are invited to the lavish home of wealthy relatives for a long lunch. Every year, they serve mediocre wine. If we bring something good, they never open it. What can we do?
I sometimes wonder if there might be an inverse relationship between the amounts of money certain people spend on cars and what they spend on wine. I'm talking about the individuals - we know who they are - who drive fancy but whose fridges at home are stacked with sub-$10 whites. Can they not detect quality unless it comes with a German automobile manufacturer's badge attached?
Do their car repayments leave them too skint to drink anything better? We may never know. Anyway, I'm off-topic. The bottom line is, they're the hosts, you're the guests, and there's no polite way of forcing them to pour what you've brought. Odds are you'll have to swallow what you're served, or - if the plonk is truly terrible - feign an ailment that has placed you temporarily on the wagon.
You may adopt the time-honoured tactic of bringing pre-opened bottles of red on the grounds that ''they needed to breathe for a few hours''. This ruse won't work for whites: you're pretty much stuck with dropping the hint inherent in bringing a bottle already chilled.
As a last resort, you could say you brought the wine for other lunch guests to try (''I know Jane and John have been waiting for the new vintage of the Stringbag Estate chardonnay, I thought I'd bring it along for them - shall we crack it now?''). Of course, that will depend on whether you know anyone else present well enough to cook up a convincing story.
Whatever you do, never take anything too special if you know it might go unopened - you risk being embittered as well as thirsty, and you'll only have yourself to blame.
Remember that line about not being able to choose your relatives, and save the good stuff for your friends.

Writer: Tactful Sheik
Date:Tuesday September 30 2008
Time: 9:00AM
Captain, top goal scorer and creative midfielder - the loss of Barry Robson to Celtic was a huge blow to Dundee United.
The Tannadice club have struggled to find form (and the back of the net) ever since Robson £1.25million move to Parkhead last January.
Although, manager Craig Levein think he has already found Robson's replacement and is hoping that midfielder Craig Conway is finally ready to start having a bigger influence in his Dundee United side.
Conway opened the scoring with a magnificent 30-yard free-kick against Hearts at the weekend, a goal which inspired United to a 3-0 win and a 3rd consecutive victory.
"Craig Conway frustrates me, because I know he's got that in him. He practices that every week and he's been waiting for one to hit the back of the net," Levein told the BBC after the 3-0 victory.
"I think it was important to get the first goal and what a way to open the scoring. He scored a great goal and was a real thorn in hearts side all day."
It's obvious that Conway is aware of the pressure on him to take over from the club's departed captain, especially in the free-kick department.
It was the 23-year-olds 1st goal of the season, his last SPL strike came against Kilmarnock in the 2-1 victory at Rugby park on the 26th of January, but it was a goal that was well worth waiting for.
"I've been watching Barry Robson," joked Conway to the Dundee Courier.
"I don't know where it came from, we've been practising a few free kicks, but I've never managed to do it in training."
"We haven't scored one since Barry left so it's good to get that monkey off our backs."
During the 90-minutes, Conway attracted the unwanted attentions of several opposition players, including Hearts midfielder Eggert Jonsson, who was eventually red carded for several poor challenges on the United player.
"I'm sore all over but that's part of the game, especially in my position. You've got to just keep getting the ball and getting on with it. The more you run at them the more they don't like it," continued Conway.
"You're taking people on so there's going to be times when you're going to get fouled, especially if you're doing well."
"It's not nice getting kicked all the time but I suppose it's a sign that they're finding it difficult to handle you."

Russia: LGBT rights group fined 500,000 rubles under 'foreign agent' law

Where is the gay mafia when you need them.
This is not Democracy.
Anyone know the link for the petition.
How do the French put it?
Court de Kangaroo?
Every court in Russia is a kangaroo court. Guilt is presumed and it is up to the accused to prove innocence. That's the way their "justice" system has always worked.
It explains why mentally Russians are still medieval serfs willing to do their master's bidding. If even that basic tenet isn't there then there are no human rights in Russia, and never have been.
Many people call what is happening in Russia – fascism. !
I would say it is a tragedy, but with them having suffered the loss of over 20million lives in war against fascism, only to now so fundamentally embrace the principles of fascism. It goes far, far beyond mere tragedy. There is probably no word currently in use in any language to describe it, the only thing that would come close is the name of the nation.
What Russia is doing is very much Russian.
Russia goes back into the closet….So sad. When will it allow it's great people to be themselves and stop trying to control everything. Sad Russian Politicians – Trust your people.

Play with the panels of a noir spy comic in Framed
Framed is a game for comic fans, noir aficionados, puzzle gurus and lovers of story. It's minimalistic; the characters are silhouettes with details in white, such as ties and flowers, and there's absolutely no text. Gameplay involves sliding frames of a comic around to create the best possible scenario for mysterious, trench-coated characters as they attempt to outrun and outsmart the police force in a big city.
It's largely a puzzle game – move one panel to the wrong spot and the police officer in that frame will see your character running and shoot him in the face. Place a panel of a hallway in front of that, and your character runs up behind the cop, knocking him out with the briefcase he perpetually carries.
The briefcase is a mystery. It changes hands between at least two characters, one man and one woman (both wearing trench coats), and it apparently holds something valuable. Framed comes from Australian studio Loveshack, and designer Joshua Boggs tells Joystiq that the game includes two main elements: puzzle and story. Players will be able to influence the story by rearranging tiles, similar to the puzzle play. Boggs provides an example: There are two frames on-screen, one with an object in a drawer, and the other with a hand reaching into a pocket. Place the drawer panel first, and the character takes something out of the desk and places it in his pocket. Place the pocket panel first, and the character plants evidence from his pocket in the drawer.
The narrative runs the same line regardless of the action order, but the way players interpret the story changes based on these decisions. The simplistic design and anti-text approach also ensures that much of the story resides in player interpretation.
In my run-through of the first few levels, I started making sound effects whenever my character smashed the briefcase over an officer's head, or when he ran past a barrage of bullets. I gave the silhouetted main characters personalities and naturally overlaid my own thoughts on their actions. The man, in my head, is a snarky spy who says things like, "Ha-ha!" when he outwits the authorities. The woman is smooth and confident, offering lines such as "Excuse me, boys" as she knocks out a row of cops and makes her escape.
None of this flavor is in the actual game, but Framed's simple style makes it easy to project personalities into the panels, and I imagine the game will read differently to each person that picks it up.
The puzzles themselves are tricky, relying solely on visual cues to piece the panels together correctly. One stage offers two rows of blue-and-orange pathways, with cops scattered at various outlets. The player must recognize that placing an orange hallway at the beginning means that in the next panel, the character will emerge from the orange section, potentially in direct sight of a vigilant police officer.
Different stages ask players to rotate certain panels, rather than moving them to different locations, while others can be used twice, moving characters in and out of the same door throughout the animation. The greatest challenge for Loveshack is relaying the new mechanics to players. The rotation idea is straightforward, as those panels are shaped differently and have a tiny reticle where they rotate, but the multiple-use panels are trickier. Normally, as characters move through the panels, they darken. If you can use a panel again, it returns to full color, but that animation is easy to miss while watching the action in the following panels.
Boggs says the team has solutions for these input issues that don't involve adding text. The final game will have 50 stages or so, and Loveshack currently has about 30 done. The studio aims to launch Framed in mid-2014, first on iOS and Steam, and later on Android. It'll run around $5 on iOS, and the team is still figuring out Steam pricing.

Russia outraged by giant Louis Vuitton suitcaseNovember 27, 2013 @ 6:14 am
MOSCOW (AP) - Politicians didn't like it, the public didn't like it, so the gigantic Louis Vuitton suitcase is being booted out of Red Square.
The GUM department store on Red Square, which is responsible for 30-feet (nine meters) high and 100-feet (30-meters) long construction, promised in a statement released Wednesday that it would be dismantled.
Politicians and public alike condemned the exhibit, a stone's throw from the tomb of communist leader Vladimir Lenin. State news agencies reported that the Kremlin had demanded the removal of the display.
The construction is part of an exhibition called "The Soul of Travel," marking Vuitton's 150th anniversary and was to open on Dec. 2. Louis Vuitton said the construction was a copy of a model owned by a Russian noble, Prince Vladimir Orlov.

Amjad Khan is now preparing to break his father's world records.
MALACCA: The eldest son of former Malaysian snake king Ali Khan Samsudin plans to break his father's 1997 Guinness Book of World Records.
Amjad Khan Ali is confident of smashing his late father's record of living in a glass enclosure with more than 5,000 scorpions for 21 days and another record of living with 400 snakes for 40 days.
"The details of what I plan to do are still a secret but the number of snakes involved will definitely be more than 400 and the number of days I am going to live with them, more than 40," he said yesterday.
His father died in 2006 after being bitten by a king cobra while performing a stunt in Kuala Lumpur.
Amjad Khan said he would also try to better his father's scorpion record by attempting to live in an enclosure with 5,500 scorpions for a day longer than his father did 26 years ago.
The 27-year-old snake handler started being involved in the family trade of performing with reptiles at the young age of one. He now considers all the snakes he performs with as part of his family.
"There is some sort of communication between me and the snakes.
"God willing, I will emerge without a single bite at the end of my feat," he said, adding that snake handling had been part of his family for four generations and that most of his relatives had grown to love their "slithery friends".
Amjad Khan, who hails from Taiping, Perak, said he would first need to look for the right place to set the new record.
"I am planning to approach shopping complexes or hotels keen to be part of the event, either in Kuala Lumpur, Seremban or here," he said.
Since the death of his father, Amjad Khan has been actively involved in handling snakes for shows, movies and stage shows.
His service has also been engaged by residents in housing estates and plantation owners to control snake populations or to chase away the poisonous reptiles.
The father of three has also caught many venomous black cobras in several plantations and released them into their natural habitat.

Spare the misery of sanctions, talk to Iran
Solution to Iran's nuclear issue can be found through negotiations and not by depriving civilians of their basic needs.
- Image Credit: Illustration: Niño Jose Heredia/Gulf News
The day was August 7, 1990. It was a quiet and hushed afternoon in Baghdad when my next door neighbour rang our door bell. Umm Tawfiq's house was adjacent to ours in the capital's Al Waziriya district. The previous night, she and her family had visited our home. Along with my two children, she and I had passed the evening in our garden talking about the invasion of Kuwait, while watching Saddam Hussain on TV.
A few days earlier, Saddam had led his army on a summer dawn hike to Kuwait, and his action changed forever the lives of all Iraqis.
On that afternoon Umm Tawfiq stood at our door and she ordered me: "You must come with me to buy supplies."
I told her I had everything at home, but she insisted, saying that there won't be a grain of rice to be bought in an hour's time, neither a sack of flour nor a pack of detergent. America had led the UN to impose sanctions on Iraq.
She whisked me off in her blue Toyota Corona, and we spent the rest of that afternoon and evening looking for rice, lentils, flat beans, sugar, tea, flour, detergents, tissue paper, oil, cooking ghee and other commodities.
Essential items were disappearing quickly from all the stores in Baghdad they were practically vanishing before my very eyes.
I had no idea that a new page was turning in our lives as Iraqis. I could hardly imagine I was witnessing the death of our blue horse, the Iraqi dinar.
It was called a horse because it was a strong currency, backed with the second largest oil reserve in the world. It was termed blue because the colour of the Iraqi dinar was blue.
How was it possible for our blue horse to succumb to a single blow from the US and UN?
But things did not stop at that. The very next day, our daily bread, as we had known it all our lives, disappeared too. And despite Iraq's August heat, I imagined us living in Russia of the 1919, when bread became black and life unbearable.
We ate the black bread and discovered that it was baked from dough prepared with a mixture of brown flour, sawdust and crushed date pips.
From then on, things went downhill. Iraqis depended heavily on a measly ration of foodstuff that was distributed by the government.
On one occasion, there was a huge banquet for Ralph Ekeus, UNSCOM's chief arms inspector in Iraq. At the table, there was every conceivable delicacy. He was taken aback. At that moment, a Baath party official told him: "This is for you to understand that UN sanctions are against the Iraqi civilians and not the government you want to corner."
His words might as well have fallen on stones, as nothing happened to ease our lives. True, Saddam's government had made a grave mistake, but we were paying the price.
All this came back to me in a flash as I listened to the US President George W. Bush threatening Iran with "dire consequences" if Tehran goes ahead with its uranium enrichment programme.
I also remembered a great cartoon in the German magazine Der Spiegel, wherein Saddam in his army fatigues kicks Ayatollah Khomeini with his military boot. The caption read: "OK, you started it, now how do you pull out?" referring to the 8-year Iran-Iraq war.
If the UN and the US impose sanctions on Iran, many Iranian babies will die, people will go hungry and Iran will suffer badly. I will rephrase Der Spiegel's caption: "How will you pull out this time if you start with Iran?"
Iran is not Iraq. Iran is a very determined country. And after Iraq and Lebanon, the US truly has a very small group of friends in these whereabouts.
The solution, alas, lies on the negotiation table.

Russias 1-year ban on food products from the EU, US, Canada, and Norway will force Russia to increase food imports from Latin America, specifically Ecuador, Brazil, Uruguay, Chile and Argentina.
Russia's ban opens the door to Russias partners on the other side of the world. Russia will have to fill an 8 percent gap in its total agricultural imports that it sources from the EU, USA, Canada, Australia, and Norway. The Netherlands, Germany, and Poland are currently Russias biggest food suppliers in the EU.
On Wednesday the three countries confirmed they are ready to start supplying Russia with agricultural goods and Moscow will soon hold meetings with ambassadors from Brazil and Argentina.
Agricultural products dominate Argentinas export. Russia imports Argentinian pears, grapes, apples, citrus fruits, and other food. In 2012 trade turnover exceeded $1 billion.
In 2013, Chile exported $567 million worth of agricultural products to Russia. Regionally, Chile exports an array of fruits, including grapes, avocadoes, berries, plums, and kiwis.
Even though Ecuador primarily sends exports to the US and EU, it still has the potential to cut into the Russian agriculture and raw materials market. At present, bananas, cut flower, and coffee and tea are sent eastward to Russia.

Kittanning police officers were overwhelmed the first time they emptied a collection box where unwanted prescription drugs can be dropped off in the department's lobby earlier this month.
"We ended up collecting 37 pounds of unwanted medications, which is an awful lot of pills," said Chief Bruce Mathews. "When we opened the box, bags of pills literally fell out onto the floor."
The Med Return Drug Collection Box was installed with a goal of getting prescription drugs off the streets before they illegally ended up in the hands of those who might abuse them. Kittanning police and the Armstrong-Indiana-Clarion Drug Commission installed the box after receiving a state Drug-free Community Grant in February. The commission installed three boxes in Indiana County.
Officers empty the box four times a year and give the medications to the federal Drug Enforcement Administration to be destroyed.
"The door of that box has a very distinct sound, and I got very used to hearing it opening and closing all day long," Mathews said. "After having such a large amount right away, I wouldn't be surprised if we collected considerably less over the next several months."
Mathews said officials have noted an increase in abuse of prescription drugs, especially in strong painkillers like Vicodin and Percocet.
"The problem is a lot of people who misuse prescription drugs don't think they're doing anything dangerous, since it came from their doctor," Mathews said. "If it's not taken in the proper manner, it's considered an illegal substance."
Mathews said anyone using the drug collection box at the station can anonymously drop off their medications around the clock. He said no police officers will question or require any documentation of who is dropping off the drugs.
"It's a good way to make sure medications don't fall into the wrong hands and aren't abused," Mathews said. "It's all about prevention."

Robot Puts Box On Head
Robots have a tendency to move rather a lot like, um, robots. How dare they. The smooth and natural motions that we humans are so proud of comes from a combination of many different motions all at once: if you pick something up, you're generally not just using your arm like a robot does, but rather, subtly moving your arms, wrists, hands, torso, and even your head. With a new movement algorithm, iCub is learning to move in a much more human-like manner, even with complex motions.
