The patchiness that has characterised real estate sales activity in Melbourne since early 2012 is fast giving way to increased market stability and steadily rising house prices.
There is now a consensus among real estate data companies that most capital city markets and market segments are seeing the fastest price growth since the government-stimulated house price boom of 2009-10.
Melbourne is leader of the pack. Figures released on Friday by Australian Property Monitors show Melbourne recorded the strongest result of all the capitals over the June quarter, with house prices up by 5 per cent and unit prices up 3.7 per cent. Its findings support Real Estate Institute of Victoria figures released a week ago that suggest the median Melbourne house price has risen to a new peak of $562,000, but at a more moderate rate of 2.4 per cent.
Fairfax-owned APM said the national housing market recorded its best result in three years, with most markets at or near record highs in the June quarter. National median house prices rose strongly by 2.8 per cent over the quarter - the third consecutive quarterly rise.
APM senior economist Andrew Wilson said buyer activity had lifted significantly in the first half of 2013, with the rise in prices being propelled by low interest rates and rising confidence.
Monique Sasson Wakelin, of Wakelin Property Advisory, said she was not surprised by the strong Melbourne numbers. She said demand had remained high through autumn and winter, with many properties selling for 5 per cent above expectations at the time of listing.
''However, prices are not yet rising consistently across the board,'' she said. ''Most prospective buyers are relatively patient at this time of year and are willing to bide their time until the spring rather than risk overpaying now.''
Many areas - especially the inner suburbs - still have some way to go before they return to the peak values of 2009. APM and RP Data figures indicate Melbourne's housing market has recovered half to three-quarters of the price falls since the 2010-12 market slump. The city appears to be experiencing a slow-burn recovery and may be in for a lengthy period of relatively stable prices growth. Agents describe the market as ''normal'' and ''balanced''.
Fletchers executive chairman Tim Fletcher said that given the uncertainty over the timing of the federal election and concerns about global and domestic economic issues, ''it surprises me that things are going so well''. He said listings were increasing and most auctions were hands-up affairs. ''Unless something catastrophic happens, it will continue on in spring,'' Mr Fletcher said.
Saturday's auction clearance rate was 72 per cent from the 465 auctions reported to the REIV.
REIV spokesman Robert Larocca said the year-to-date clearance rate was running at 70 per cent. ''It has shifted very little from that on any given weekend, which is remarkable when you consider that it is a different set of homes being auctioned every weekend,'' he said.
Dr Wilson said the middle market in Melbourne was the most active over the June quarter. ''The outer east and the north-eastern suburbs and the mid-range price sectors between $500,000 and $1 million have been the big movers.''
There are 560 auctions scheduled next weekend.

Byzantine; Said to be from the Monastery of Apa Jeremias, Saqqara (found in the neighboring village of Mitrahina)
Limestone; 8 7/8 x 38 1/4 x 4 in. (22.5 x 97.2 x 10.2 cm)
Inscribed in Coptic: O Father, O Son, O Holy Spirit, the Holy Mary, the Holy Michael, the Holy Gabriel, our Father Apa Jeremias, Apa Enoch, Apa Ambrosius, Apa Hor, Ama Sibylla, the Papa Jeremias, their Son. Amen
Rogers Fund, 1910 (10.176.37)
In the 500s, Apa (Father) Jeremias founded a Coptic monastery at Saqqara, the ancient Egyptian necropolis (cemetery) for the city of Memphis, near the oldest pyramids. He and the earliest monks lived in ancient tombs at the site. As the monastery grew, several grand churches with lavish decoration were built as well as many chapels, public buildings, and multi-unit complexes of cells (rooms) for individual monks. The monastery continued to grow after the Arab conquest, with materials from Early Byzantine tomb structures being reused for additional monastic structures. Inscriptions record prayers to numerous holy figures. Sculptural elements from Saqqara often are carved with deeply cut, stylized patterns to intensify the play of light and shadow and mask the solidity of the architecture, a style popular throughout the Byzantine world in the 500s.

2 Texans to Alaska (and back)...
View Single Post
Two wheeled traveler
Joined: Dec 2008
Location: Lowry Crossing, TX
Oddometer: 394
Glacier NP, MT to Lake Louise- Banff National Park
Day 7 - June 6,2010
Total Mileage Today: 330
Total Trip Mileage: 2,860
Coldest morning yet. Had to start off with some gift shop coffee...
It is amazing the creature comforts that some of the more popular National Parks have. We had camped at the Many Glacier campground, which was quite large, but seemed fairly remote. Even out here they had a gift shop.souvenir store, and I kid you not, a freaking Italian Restaurant
! It wasn't open yet for the season, but you think that might attract a few bears
We've gotten the morning packing down pretty solid by now.
We took a smaller route into Canada via the Chief Mountain Scenic Byway.
We snagged some good pics along this road.
We reached the border crossing station within an hour or so. I saw a "Montana" sign on my left, and since we didn't get a good pic of us in front of one on the way in (we entered through Yellowstone NP) I made a U-turn and went back for it. Probably looked kinda suspicious to the customs agents though
Now, onto the border crossing.
They let us in after a few questions about vegetables and guns.
Nikki was totally not prepared for me to jump on her back, but it was a heck of a picture. There was a German guy here on a BMW. I went and asked him a bunch of questions before I realized that he spoke no English
The scenery continued to impress. I think some of this is the Canadian side to Glacier NP called Waterton Lakes Provincial Park, or something like that.
We drop out of the mountains and into foothills and prairie.
We're taking Hwy 22 (The Cowboy Trail) up to junction with Trans-Can Hwy 1. This way we will stay well West of Calgary and any associated traffic.
We pick-up the Tran-Can Hwy 1 and head to Banff National Park. It felt really strange to be on a mult-lane Hwy. We hadn't seen one of these since we left I-35 in Kansas!
Entering the Park,
and headed towards Lake Louise for our camping tonight
So, about a month or so before we departed on our trip, Nikki and I were watching the National Geographic Chanel. There was one of those "when animals attack" shows on. It was about Bears. Not only was it about Bears (remember nikki bear-a-phobia), but it was about a bear attack at the Lake Louise Campground. I should have changed the channel earlier... She said, "I am glad we are not going there!" I had this sort of grin on my face. "We aren't going there... right?", she says. Umm yeah, but don't worry, they have installed an electric fence around the perimeter of the tent campground
. I thought this information would make her feel better, safe, like she didn't have anything to worry about. The information goes into her ears and morphs, "so they have such a problem with bears there that they have to have an electric fence?" Jeez, you would look at it that way wouldn't you?
With enough time and convincing she came around to the idea, or maybe I just never brought it up again.
We pull into the above mentioned campground and over the electrified cattle guard.
Not 5 mins. later, just on the other side of the fence we saw this guy.
And again, like good tourists staring at potential danger, we treat the situation like we were at a zoo and take our pics.
Then an interesting thing occurred. The bear is digging in the ground eating stuff, and I see some movement on the left of him. It's a dude on a bike. He rides out into a clearing and stops. What is this guy doing? I think, hmm... if I yell something like, "hey dude, there is a really big grizzly bear right there to my right, your left!" , it could potentially spook the bear who seems to be relatively unaware of the dude on a bike. Right about then, the dude on a bike's companion, chick on bike, pulls up. Now they both stop. I feel the only logical thing to do at this point is to get my camera ready - I may see some carnage.
Here is one of the pictures I took. I have labeled it for easy reference
The folks on bikes get done with their break and pedal on unscathed and seemingly unnoticed by the bear. About 2 mins. later they pull into the campground. We are still looking at the bear. "Holy Shit" the dude says. I show him the picture I took of them and their relation the bear (i left out the part of waiting to get a pic of them getting gotten). Very entertaining bit for us.
After we got tired of staring at the bear. We hoped back on the bike and went to go check out Lake Louise and Lake Moraine.
After which we set up came and made dinner.
Tomorrow we continue through Banff NP to Jasper and find out why they call it The Icefields Parkway

Overall Experience:
I've loved my time so far because everyone has been kind and great to me when speaking. Math was never a topic I enjoyed and I always received a B. When going to my college, I had a great professor and ended up earning an A.
Overall Experience:
I love my school and am a badger at heart. UW Madison offers such a wide range of opportunities and is highly recognized in a variety of fields. I loved knowing in my first semester that whatever major I chose would provide me the skills and resources to excel no matter what the field. The campus has a great atmosphere and I met so many great people in my first semester. I only wish that the unversity cared more about its students (I'm talking administration not faculty, faculty is amazing). Going to a school this large can definitely make you feel like just a number when is comes to financial assistance and counseling. Even with this pitfall, if I had to I would definitely choose my school all over again.
Overall Experience:
Started out a little rocky, found my place and now I never want to leave.
Overall Experience:
The University of Wisconsin-Madison has some of the best programs in the country. Initially, I was a little lost about what I wanted to do; however, the advising staff here is excellent. In addition, the classes are great and you can interact with your professors if you put the effort into meeting them.
Overall Experience:
The University of Wisconsin Madison has opened many doors for me and I am very grateful to be a student there.
It took a little while to actually apply but it was easily taken care of.
Off-Campus Housing:
It seems very expensive but it's actually less than living in a dorm. They're nice to be out of housing, convenient, and are fun.
Off-Campus Dining:
State Street is great and provides a change in the food scene but if looking anywhere else off-campus the locations are usually fast-food.
There are a multitude of school policies that are expected to be enforced in the dorms but aren't that serious.
Campus Food:
They offer a lot of variety with nice dining halls and convenient locations but they food gets old.
Campus Housing:
The dorms and buildings are old but that's what makes it UW - Madison. Great place to live and I can't wait until next year!
Wisconsin is one of those unique schools that not only has excellent academics but an incredible sports program, as well. Football and basketball are HUGE, but there is also strong support for other programs like hockey, soccer, and volleyball. Lots of fun traditions, especially with football (JUMP AROUND!) Athletic events are fun even for people who may not be interested in sports.
Party Scene:
Lots of parties, we love to have fun. House, apartment, greek--It's not guaranteed you'll be let it, especially if you don't know the host, but there are always many options. However, if partying isn't your thing, it's avoidable and there are plenty of other fun things to do as well.
Obviously, they don't promote drinking, but they know it exists, so they focus on encouraging students to make healthy and responsible decisions. The police are fairly lenient--as long as you aren't obnoxiously or dangerously intoxicated, they'll leave you alone. Residence halls are more strict, although it really depends on your House Fellow.
Campus Food:
I enjoyed the a la carte system, it kept me from getting more food than I needed and it prevents food waste overall. I was also impressed with the food itself--for cafeteria style food, it's tasty and there are a variety of options. It can get old after awhile, but it is very convenient.
Party Scene:
Parties can almost always be found. They are harder to locate when it is cold out, but during the beginning of the school year, they are EVERYWHERE!
Off-Campus Housing:
Off-campus can get expensive, especially some of the new apartment buildings, but there's plenty to choose from that's affordable. There are more options for parking, but that can be pricey.
Off-Campus Dining:
Madison has an awesome restaurant scene, there are tons of places to check out on State Street, lots of which are locally owned. The food carts near Memorial Union are also pretty neat.
Greek Life:
Very prominent on campus but is looked at as cliquey.
Sports are everything here! The fitness facilities are very subpar for average students, however.
Off-Campus Dining:
Have not experienced much off-campus dining. But what I have experienced has been great!
Just strict enough to keep everyone safe!
Campus Food:
Many options all over campus!
The government didn't grant me very much financial aid, despite my family's situation. Finding financial aid has been difficult but I have not reached out to the school for much help either. I guess I'm not sure where to go to get the help I need.
Campus Housing:
I absolutely loved living on campus. My dorm was only a year old and very spacious and clean. Those I lived around were friendly and considerate. Just enough rules to keep everyone getting along. Would definitely do it over again, but too expensive to live in for more than one year.

Students feel they are able to form relationships with other students, as well as their professors. Furthermore, UW leaves them prepared for their future.
An individual's undergraduate experience is one of the most exciting times in their lives. It is often the first time they are away from parents and making serious decisions about their future. Therefore, it is essential to pick the best university to spend these busy years at. UW offers amazing academics, an inviting atmosphere, and energetic student body. Its location geographically makes it comfortable as well as gorgeous. The facilities are very accommodating, as is the transportation system.

Fortunately, though, issues such as diversity and improvements to the quality of the dorm food are being addressed. Students generally leave the school feeling satisfied and prepared for what's to come. Wherever you decide to spend your undergraduate years, definitely consider the University of Wisconsin as a practical, exciting, and fulfilling option.

Of course, the viewers may have already voted on the series when half of its premiere audience didn't show up to watch Episode 2.
Meanwhile, the much more racy U.K. version (which would make the PTC's heads explode according to our British friends) just premiered its fifth season on Britain's E4 channel. Fans of the British series already know that MTV's version shies away from the original in more than just sex and drugs.
In the Series 5 trailer (as THR points out), a couple teens have guns, another strips, and the party rages on:
Have you compared the original to MTV's version yet?

I've got a little history in CMS technology and I wonder if anyone could recommend a CMS-System (esp. WCM) for large content rich websites. Consider a hierarchical tree structure of sites with e.g. 4-5 levels, where you have about 10 to 15 trees of sites. e.g.:
- Organisation 1-n 1.1 Suborg 1-n 1.2 Special-Microsite 1-n
You should further be able to share content & navigation within sites (trees) an attach own site-specific navigation and content to shared navigation - wich only appears in the site scope but not globally.
When you could say about a system it rocks even with 500+ sites and complex permission landscape, please let me know.

Scientists Watch Antarctica, Arctic Sea-Ice Levels
Originally published on Mon October 8, 2012 4:35 am
The ice covering the Arctic Ocean was at a record low, in keeping with a sharp warming trend in the far north. At the same time, the amount of the ocean around Antarctica covered by sea ice hit a record high. It's winter in Antarctica when it's summer in the Arctic. But why in a warming world is wintertime ice growing?

WASHINGTON – A few weeks ago, a friend of mine shared the elevator with a young girl and her dad, both on the way to claim their prize at a local radio station for being caller No. 10.
The reward? A pair of tickets to see Miley Cyrus in concert.
When my friend asked the young girl if she was excited to go to the concert, her father quickly chimed in.
"She's not going. No way."
Cyrus' 38-city Bangerz tour has been met with mixed reviews, parental complaints and empty seats, as reported by Forbes. Although, her concert promoter Live Nation says ticket sales are fine.
Family and relationship expert Jane Greer says the hesitation seen among parents of young children is that Cyrus' image just isn't what it used to be.
"I think the risk for parents is that their children are no longer able to identify in the way they could when [Cyrus] was Hannah Montana," Greer says. "Then, she was a role model because her behaviors and her values really flowed in a positive way."
Some parents are calling Miley Cyrus' concerts inappropriate and are comparing it to porn. (AP Photo)
The "new" Cyrus is an adult whose show reflects her age, her musicality and her fondness for shock and awe. A parental advisory is issued in the show to warn of explicit content — and Cyrus does not go back on her word.
Cyrus' show has been labeled inappropriate by many. Some parents have gone so far as to call it "porn," as reported on Music Fix.
"If parents are going to let their kids go to see her, it has to be on a very short leash with very clear boundaries in place," Greer says.
Greer suggests explaining to your kids that this is a role Miley is playing. Her public performance is a character she has taken on. It is not a role with which to identify or copy.
These days, teen pop idols are getting more play for their mug shots, their twerking and their bad behavior than for their talent.
In previous generations, Elvis' hips were X-rated and rock

Thread: Death of King Henry II
January 1st, 2007 #1
Death of King Henry II
Did some research on this event and desided to make a painting. He took a splinter of wood from a lance that went though his eye-and out his ear. Its a real shame because the guy who killed him was his own guardsman-and after all this he went off to start religous conflicts and gets beheaded by the French=who he used to serve. This one event messed up most of europe for a long time. There is more to the story-but yeah. this is acrylic on board-done is a few hours. The blue and yellow knight is obviosly king Henry- and the black knight is the guardsman. I used to swoop repeatidly to draw the eye around the peice. thanks for viewing
well its been moved again--IDK why. how is this not finished?? because its not photoshop??

The arm of the black knight needs to be defined more; right now it's just kind of blobby.
As it stands, the piece is pretty good, but I think in a lot of areas you could continue to push it. Just keep on refining things.
January 2nd, 2007 #3
I know this'll probbably seem a bit nerdy but you could have found armour from the correct dates and even his actual armour with a quick google, what you have painted is very generic movie tournament armour.
well that's all I've got that differs from the comments above.
January 2nd, 2007 #4
now i see that the lance is not correct.
on the right side it is thicker, than on the other one.

Thanks guy--yeah i noticed the lance was off--but havent had the time to fix that. thats for the diagram though-that helps alot.
any ideas on how to emphasis the arm more-Im trying to keep from highlighting a whole lot. working with my compostion i could darken the shield more i guess.
and paddy-your defnitly correct-i was being realy lazy and failed to strech myself away from the few refrence shots i had. I should have been more on top of that=-but I figured i could get away with it. obviosly not
thanks guys

heheheh....... my first thought had to do with anacronistic armour too.. I researched the same period, for Eleanor of Aquitaine. If your topic is Henry. he seems sort of anonymous and shoved off into the corner of the piece. It seems to be more about the guardsman. Use some narrative tools to center the attention firmlyon you character. and when I post a pic of an oil painting I always go into PS and tweek the color and contrast. I suspect the same treatment might help an acrylic

Thanks again- yes - you guys got me on the armor thing. Mabye if I come back to this one again ill get it right. For now im onto new things.
-Chaos- yeah-Henry isnt as heroic as he should be-but i tried to compensate for that by bringing him MUCH more light- and detail-vs. the larger and darker guardsman. I also tried to emphasise some key swirls up to him to lead the eye there. I treid to offset things for action reasons. I added my "eye lead" - hopefully that clears things up- if some of it doesnt work-please tell me. sorry also if im being defensive. my art teacher keeps telling me to practice defending my compositions. And yes--the colors are a bit drab from the original. I should go into photoshop. my next post i will. Thanks for the advice!
