Cullen Bay man James Colthart cops fine from Darwin council for selling car in public place
- From: NT News
- April 11, 2014
A CULLEN Bay man has been fined $144 for trying to sell his car in a public place.
James Colthart parked his 2002 Holden Astra at the old hospital site in the Darwin CBD on Tuesday, with two A4 sheets of paper on the driver and passenger side window, but later returned to a fine stuck to his windscreen.
The fine wasn't for parking his car in the wrong spot — but for selling his car in a public place.
"I see people doing it all the time so I was quite shocked to get the fine," Mr Colthart said.
"When I rang the council to query it they said it constituted an offence."
The Darwin city council website states: "Advertising of cars, boats or other vehicles for sale on public road reserves or other public places within the Darwin municipality is an offence under City of Darwin By-Law 101."
Mr Colthart said when he questioned the council they said a public place was "anywhere that's visible to the public."
"So this means that people could even sell their cars in the front of their own home and get pinged. I just think it's a ridiculous law that's very confusing."
Council CEO Brendan Dowd said: "Anyone selling their car must abide by this by-law".
"Council wants to ensure everyone can use our parks and footpaths for their enjoyment and intended purpose," he said.
Mr Colthart is selling his Astra for $5000.

You poor people, slaves to the system, you believe that you are breaking the law, or by-law of the council, think again, The coucil has no authority to fine anyone, they themselves are not government, we had 2 referendums rejecting counils, or a third ter of government, they themselves are illegal. dont pay any council fines, but write them a letter to show "who gave them any authority to fine people, they have none, dont take this garbage but fight back, all councils are Corparations, which has got nothing to do with Government. "If you dont fight for your rights you haven't got any."

Paul Meahan of Glenorchy comment 59...why do you want to move to Darwin? It is already obvious to me that you already have a negative opinion of the place and the people! Ask your self before you make the final decision to move to our small minded town...is this really for me?? If you read your comment you will see you have answered that all important question. Darwin is like a microcosm of what is going on in the rest of the country... people move here and expect the locals to change. I think private NT sellers of vehicles should think about the suggestions posted here of having a monthly sale with a local club and make a day of it for the buyers...alternatively you could also use this forum to raise money for our community services such as domestic violence support for perpetrators and victim's in Darwin and remote communities...these services do a fantastic job in supporting those affected by DV and are charity based so any support is appreciated.
Observer of not too far away Posted at 3:33 PM April 14, 2014
I could drive around Darwin and Palmy any day of the week and pick off half a dozen cars being sold on the side of the road. So rather than actually get off their arses and go out "laying down the apparent law" on selling cars at the side of the road the useless DCC tossers pick on the easiest target parked outside the council offices. Go DCC - it's encouraging to note that anything outside the CBD escapes your attention because it's TOO HARD. Typical useless suits. We are paying for these tossers. Sigh !!!

Around The Web: Grigsby Exits, Jim Brown On Jerome Harrison, Bengals Traveling to Henry's Funeral
Yesterday's Chiefs loss to the Browns was the final time longtime broadcaster and icon Bill Grigsby will be involved with a Chiefs game.
He said he's retiring after watching all but a handful of Chiefs games in the franchise's history.
"Times change, you know?" Grigsby, 87, said before Kansas City's home finale Sunday.
He has called Chiefs games since the team moved from Dallas in 1963, missing only eight, he estimated Sunday.
Grigsby also broadcast the first game at Allen Fieldhouse, the Chiefs' only Super Bowl win and the first nationally broadcast Final Four.
Grigsby said he might spend his time writing or at The National, his home golf course where he also keeps an office. But he said he'd never be too far away from the Chiefs.
"This is always going to be in my blood," he said. "This is like family."
The Chiefs lost much more than a game Sunday. It's hard to imagine the Chiefs without Grigsby. If you've ever heard any game on the Chiefs Radio Network than you know his work very well and it will be so odd him not being around next season. I hope they keep his voice on the Price Chopper commercials so we can still hear his voice during games.
If you were at Arrowhead or watching the game on DirecTV outside of the Kansas City metro area, then you got to see Browns backup running Jerome Harrison run for a franchise record 286 yards. The owner of the record he broke, Jim Brown, happened to be at Arrowhead Stadium to watch Harrison run wild.
"He was a man today," said Brown. "He made his cuts, his acceleration was tremendous. He broke some tackles, he made some people miss. When he got in space, there was no catching him.
"I've been talking to him as much as I can talk to and trying to help in every way I could. To see him perform and see the offensive line open up those kinds of holes, it was just a great day."
I don't want to take anything away from Harrison because he was fantastic and definitely made things happen with some fantastic cuts. With that being said, I think the Browns could have just lined up Derek Anderson at tailback and he could have averaged 4 yards a carry. It seemed like all game long Cleveland was dealing with 2nd and 4. Brady Quinn couldn't do anything in the air and the Chiefs knew it, yet there was Harrison nearly setting a league record. Ugly.
Next up for the Kansas City Chiefs are the grieving Cincinnati Bengals. Before they start to prepare for Sunday's game, they will travel as a team to the funeral of their teammate Chris Henry.
The funeral will be held on Tuesday at the Alario Center in Westwego, which is near downtown New Orleans. The Alario Center is the practice facility for the NBA's New Orleans Hornets.
There will be a two-hour public viewing at 11 a.m.-1 p.m. CST with the funeral beginning immediately after. The Bengals will take a chartered flight to New Orleans Tuesday morning and return later that day.
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell and NFLPA Executive Director DeMaurice Smith along with players from other teams are expected to be in attendance. Goodell, Bengals Coach Marvin Lewis and PlayersRep agent Dave Lee, who represented Henry, are among those expected to deliver eulogies.
Besides the NFLPA establishing a memorial fund for Henry, a local trust fund for Henry's children has been set up at Fifth-Third Bank branches in Dayton, Cincinnati & Northern Kentucky. Checks can be made out to Chris Henry Memorial Fund.
The Chiefs have zero chance to win Sunday's game in Cincinnati and it has nothing to do with their recent struggles. Paul Brown Stadium will be so full of emotion, I don't think it would matter the team on the other side of the field. There might have been a chance for Kansas City if the Bengals had won at San Diego yesterday, but losing in the final seconds will only make things harder for the road team this Sunday.

Football coach Barnett resigns
Aaron Barnett is leaving the Eudora High School football team he built into a state power to try to do the same at a Topeka school.
Next season, the two-time Lawrence Journal-World Coach of the Year will try to restore glory to the struggling 6A Topeka Washburn Rural football team.
"It was definitely a tough decision. I have nothing but great things to say about Eudora the community and the high school," Barnett said. "I like challenges and this is another one just like four years ago at Eudora."
Barnett said he saw the potential for the Junior Blues to return to their winning ways. As a youngster, Barnett admired the coaching style of former Rural Coach Ron Bowen from afar and recognized the potential to rebuild a strong football program. Rural fans had their share of headaches over the past four years as the team struggled to a 6-39 record under coach Nick McGrain.
"There is a lot of potential at Washburn Rural," Barnett said. "I think the four things that you need for a successful football program are a strong administration, good assistant coaches, a supportive community and good players. Washburn Rural has that, and Eudora will continue to have that."
Barnett said he would take fond memories from his coaching days at Eudora, but making the playoffs for the first time and defeating Baldwin in 2000 for the first league title stand out in his mind.
"I will miss the kids because I have developed strong relationships," Barnett said. "My wife (high school teacher Erin Barnett) and I have made lifelong friends here in Eudora."
Athletic Director Larry McPherson was a bit surprised to find out Barnett was leaving the program.
"He did a heck of a good job for us," McPherson said. "We'll miss him, but that's life."
McPherson said Eudora High School will begin a search for a new coach but he doesn't expect one to be named for at least a month. McPherson also said assistant coaches on the Cardinal staff would get an opportunity for the head position.
Barnett compiled a 30-10 record from 1998-2001 with the Cardinals. His 2000 team won the first Frontier League championship in any sport for Eudora High School.
The Cardinals were bi-district champions in 2000 and 2001 and defeated every team in the Frontier League except Gardner-Edgerton during Barnett's reign. Eudora won 32 football games from 1980-97.
Barnett, who will teach physical education next year at Washburn Rural, is the second Eudora coach to take another position in the capital city. Former basketball coach and Topeka native Chad Eshbaugh left the Cards for Topeka West last June.
Washburn Rural Athletic Director Chris Ridley said Barnett was chosen over six candidates.
"I think he will give us a tremendous amount of leadership and motivation," Ridley said. "He'll be a good draw for kids to our program."
Washburn Rural was a state powerhouse in the 1980s under Coach Ron Bowen. During his 23 years at the school, the Junior Blues won three state 5A championships (1985, 1986, 1989). The school made the 6A state finals in 1992 and lost to Lawrence. They play in the Centennial League.
Barnett's Junior Blues will be in the area to face Lawrence High and Free State during district play in October.

eBay auction the other day was actually legit. A week later Kevin of CrackBerry.com has the BlackBerry 9000 in hand and seems to be loving every minute of it. Apparently the keyboard is better than the 8800 series, the OS4.6 is smooth, fast and pretty, and the 480 x 320 LCD is "awesome." And don't get Kevin started on 3G: the logo alone brought a tear to his eye -- we're clearly dealing with a bona fide fanboy here. That said, it's an encouraging sign to see all those leaked shots weren't just for show, there's a real-live performer behind the legend. Kevin's major caveat is the size and weight of the phone, compared to his Curve, but we're sure the $828 hole in his checking account will have him coming to terms with that drawback in the near future. He'll be posting more details and impressions as he goes.

The Iron Duke
|The real significance of Fort Donelson is the capture of 15,000 men. Johnston's defense line collapsed and it never really recovered. Those extra men may have enabled the Confederacy to halt the bleeding early while the war was still relatively fresh. Donelson probably would have been a hollow victory like Yorktown. Nashville probably wouldn't have fallen as easily as it did. And if there still had been a battle at Shiloh, which I think is unlikely, it would probably be known today as the American Teutoburg Forest.
The battles gave Grant a jumpstart but they didn't cement his career. I don't think his position was ever fully secured until his victory at Chattanooga.

US: Sotheby's and eBay team upComment on this story
Sotheby's and eBay were working together to make sought-after artwork, antiques and collectables available for auction online, the companies said yesterday. They would begin by placing some live Sotheby's offerings up for bid in New York on eBay's website. Sotheby's would be the "anchor tenant" on a redesigned eBay site, with auctions in 18 categories, and the companies would work on other types of sales along with live auctions from other Sotheby's locations. The website is looking for new sources of growth as its traditional business, including fixed-price item sales and auctions, has slowed, with sales growth of 10 percent in the first quarter from a 12 percent gain last year. – Bloomberg

CANON CITY, Colo. (AP) Canon City police have arrested 31-year-old Jaacob Van Winkle in the deaths of three people whose bodies were found in a home Sunday night.
Police said Monday the victims included a 5-year-old boy, a 9-year-old girl and their 35-year-old mother. No names have been released.
Police Sgt. Shannon Byerly said Van Winkle is facing charges of three counts of first-degree murder, kidnapping and sexual assault. Police were responding to a report of a sexual assault from a teenage girl when they found the bodies. Byerly said the girl escaped and ran to a neighbor's home.
Byerly said the suspect was an adult friend of the mother.

The Twin Lakes Area's major hatch of aquatic insects for the year is the spring caddis hatch, which resident trout key in on like no other.
- Filed Under
When I'm not on the water guiding or fishing on my own, I frequently stop by Dally's Ozark Angler, a fly shop in Cotter about a mile from my home.
The reason for my visits is to talk to other guides and anglers to find out how they did on the water. I cannot fish everywhere on our streams, and I have made it a habit to gather as much information as I can before writing my fishing reports.
On my last visit, I learned that there was a caddis hatch at Rim Shoals a few days ago. I had guided there earlier in the day, but had left the water about 2 p.m. Steve Dally reported seeing a light caddis hatch there a bit later in ...

Yesterday we had lunch at my sister's house. Veggie sandwiches, fruit salad, my niece's deviled eggs and my mom's lemon cake, and buckets of peaches from the tree out back, small and lopsided and so heavy with juice that they had to be eaten over the kitchen sink. We drank pineapple wine, lightened with seltzer, and shuffled around with our plates in hand to perch as we always do: the men at one table, talking about cars and airplanes; women at the other, taking on the problems of the world.
My grandmother was there, tiny as a child but swathed in purple glass beads, firmly wigged, her lipstick applied with the brush she keeps in a caddy on her dressing table. She smells of lavender powder, and the skin seems to drape over her cheekbones and pool like a velvet curtain around her neck, all folds and soft creases in the fabric of her. She's the smartest person at the table, holding forth in ladylike Aussie tones on the topics of religion (nonsense!), reality shows (did you see The Batchelor, dearie?), and politics, tossing up her gnarled hands and raising her hand-drawn eyebrows about the foolishness of the Republican party (what a bunch of children!). She's got life pretty well figured out. She keeps my mom hopping.
When she said goodbye to Drew, she patted his chest and adjusted his collar, ran her little hand across his shoulder as he smiled down at her and promised to keep us well.
This Friday we're planning to drive up to see his grandmother, who lives in Arizona. She's about the same age as my grandma, but has only recently moved from her trailer in the desert–where she used to sweep the dirt in the front yard to keep it neat, which worked surprisingly well–to the assisted living home where she lives now. Everyone in Drew's enormous family loves Nana to bits. She's incredibly warm and kind and doted-upon in the best possible way, a way that makes you feel she's earned it. I think it will be said at her eulogy that everyone loved her, everyone was her friend.
Drew and I may never see our grandmothers again once we move away. I promised mine real letters, on paper, with handwriting and postage stamps. Maybe I'll load them up with pressed flowers and tiny packets of beach sand, or pictures of us with our hair damp with rain, grinning like tourists at the door of our home.
I hope she'll collect a stack of those letters and tie them with a ribbon.
Do you still have a grandma? If not, do you remember yours?

NEW ORLEANS -- A $1.4 billion settlement between the Justice Department and Deepwater Horizon rig owner Transocean Ltd. will pump hundreds of millions of dollars into projects designed to help the Gulf Coast recover from the nation's largest offshore oil spill.
U.S. Democratic Sen. Mary Landrieu of Louisiana said the settlement announced Thursday will dedicate $800 million of the civil penalty and $300 million of criminal penalty to coastal protection and restoration work. Other settlement funds will support spill-prevention research and training.
U.S. Republican Sen. David Vitter of Louisiana said he hopes it leads to "much bigger final action with BP, the main culprit in this horrible disaster."
BP PLC leased the rig from Transocean. It already has agreed to pay $4.5 billion in penalties and plead guilty to criminal charges.

COWBOYS LIKE US (3) by Vicki Lewis Thompson: Former big league catcher Logan Carswell blew out his knee and has been adrift ever since. His latest pit stop is at the Last Chance Ranch, where the local saloon's sexy bartender, Caro Davis, catches his eye. Flirtation quickly leads to a passionate affair involving plenty of sex and horseback riding (not at the same time). There's little conflict, however, and love comes their way almost too effortlessly. It's a pleasant enough diversion, though, and Logan is a welcome addition to Thompson's growing cast of cowboy heroes.

Education chief seeks day care tax credit changes
BATON ROUGE - Superintendent of Education John White is suggesting the state tweak tax credits it offers to day care centers, tying them to new grading standards being devised for Louisiana's publicly-funded early childhood education programs.
That's among the ideas White unveiled Tuesday as he works on a new law that calls for the development of a common assessment and grading system for the education programs.
The law is to be phased in by the 2015-16 school year, but the building blocks of a plan are due to lawmakers by March 1. The Board of Elementary and Secondary Education will discuss White's proposals in December.
White wants to adjust existing tax credits that reward "school readiness" for child care providers and staff, to dovetail with the grading. Adjustments would require legislative approval.

Guide to Online Schools for Nursing
In earlier times, most people started their nursing training in their early twenties or right out of high school. Today however, a large number of nursing students are men and women over the age of forty, who are in desperate need of a total career change. In some cases, these career changes were due to a lay off, and in other instances it was simply a personal career choice. Some of the most popular online nursing courses today are forensic nursing, legal nursing consulting, licensed practical nursing, home health nursing care, registering nursing, geriatric nursing and health administration.
In terms of job opportunities, many nursing graduates today are opting to work in more non-traditional environments such as home health care businesses, medical research laboratories, and medical related governmental agencies. The salary range for these types of jobs ranges from forty two to fifty seven thousand dollars a year. In addition to these jobs, there are also many graduates today who have found employment working in the risk management department of large insurance companies and business corporations. In terms of salaries, those working for private entities like business corporations and insurance companies generally earn higher salaries then those who work in research facilities and hospitals. Although salaries can vary based on years of experience and professional certification, most earn between fifty five to eighty five thousand dollars per year. This salary also includes paid healthcare benefits and profit sharing.
Some of the course topics featured in many of today's online nursing programs include identifying acute illnesses, disease prevention, home healthcare procedures, how to care for terminally ill patients, introductory courses on the latest medical technology, how to operate medical equipment, and also how to safely administer patient vaccines and medications.
Based on a survey conducted in 2011, the most popular online colleges for nursing were Keiser University, Harrison College, University of Phoenix, Grand Canyon University, Walden University, Kaplan University Online and the Stratford Career Institute. In addition, most of these schools also offer a wide variety of student loan and tuition grant programs.

Jessica Biel Attends Beverly Mitchell's Baby Shower: All the Details!
Jessica Biel has babies on the brain! At least she did on Saturday, Feb. 9, when she attended a brunch to celebrate mom-to-be and close pal Beverley Mitchell, who is expecting her first child, a girl, in April.
PHOTOS: Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake through the years
Biel, 30, married since October to Justin Timberlake, reunited with her former 7th Heaven co-star at West Hollywood eatery Eveleigh. There, she and several other guests, including Haylie and Hilary Duff -- who has a little one of her own, baby boy Luca -- enjoyed pancakes, frozen banana yogurt, and sliced apple bread on the restaurant's patio.
PHOTOS: What celebs love about being a mom
"Jessica Biel was one of the first guests to arrive," a source tells Us Weekly of the star, who looked "gorgeous" in a print dress and with her hair blown out sleek and straight. "She and Beverly are super close friends and were sitting together for the entire shower. Jessica was asking Bev a million questions about the baby, and Beverley was referring to her as an 'auntie.'"
The source added that the Total Recall actress "was in a great mood and seemed so excited" for her pal, 32, married to Michael Cameron since 2008. And she wasn't the only one -- "all the ladies played games, ate, and chatted," the source says.
When it came time to open the gifts, Mitchell could hardly contain herself. "Beverly was oohing and ahhing at all the cute clothes. She also got a high chair, stroller, swing, books, puzzles, and eco-friendly toys," the source gushes. "She can't wait to meet her baby girl." (Her due date is April 3.)
As for Biel? An insider told Us in 2012 that "Jessica definitely wants kids" with hubby Timberlake, 32.

FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) -
Gov. Steve Beshear's office says Kentucky's new online health exchange enrolled about 1,000 people each day for health coverage during its first month.
The governor's office said 32,485 Kentuckians had signed up for coverage as of Friday morning. About 40 percent of enrollees are under age 35.
Beshear says people are still flocking to the state exchange for coverage that will begin Jan. 1.
Kentucky's rollout has drawn praise from President Barack Obama, who's dealing with fallout from the troubled introduction of the federal health benefit exchange that's a key part of his health care overhaul.
In Kentucky, the governor's office says people have signed up for health coverage in every county.
It says the highest enrollment numbers are in Jefferson and Fayette counties - the state's most populous counties.

Steve Jobs rises to #43 amongst Forbes 400 Richest Americans
updated 09:40 pm EDT, Wed September 30, 2009
Executive climbs 18 positions from last year
Apple CEO Steve Jobs has risen to the 43rd spot amongst Forbes 400 Richest Americans. The iconic chief previously held the 61st position with an estimated net worth of approximately $5.7 billion. Forbes describes Jobs as the "cultish king of the iGeeks," while mentioning the persistent rumors of an Apple tablet device.
Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has retained his #1 spot on the list, while current CEO Steve Ballmer sits at #14 and co-founder Paul Allen places 17th. Other tech veterans in the top 20 include Michael Dell and Google co-founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page.
Along with Jobs' stake in Apple, his fortune has also been bolstered by investments in Disney. The CEO bought Pixar from George Lucas in 1986 during his hiatus from Apple. The animation company was then sold to Disney for $7.4 billion in stock. Jobs is still Disney's largest investor, holding a portion of the shares worth $3.9 billion.

July 4 Support Our Troops rally draws 50
July 07, 2011
Elkhorn — About 50 people turned up at the American Legion's weekly Support Our Troops ceremony on Monday, at the Walworth County Government Center, 100 W. Walworth St., Elkhorn.
Bob Webster Sr., who founded and leads the weekly ceremonies, said he was more than pleased with the turnout, considering it was a holiday. Among those in the audience was Army Pfc. Cody Robinson of Elkhorn. A member of the 101st Airborne Division, Robinson returned from duty in Afghanistan in June. His next posting will be at Ft. Campbell, Ky.
"When I was over there, this organization sent us 'care' packages and made life a little easier over there," Robinson said.
During the ceremony, Robinson took the oath, administered by regional Commander Ron Hessil, and became a member of the American Legion.
Every month, The Support Our Troops organization puts together packages of books, baseball equipment, treats, flags, quilts, cool ties, prepaid cell phone cards and other surprises for troops who have Walworth County connections.
Webster said that so far, the Walworth County American Legion posts have sent 13,091 boxes overseas. That totals about seven tons of stuff, he said.
A total of 369 troops with Walworth County ties have served or are serving in Iraq and Afghanistan. A total of 15 from the area are serving currently in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Webster said July 4 marked the 334th weekly Support Our Troops ceremony. A total of 9,730 visited the Support Our Troops ceremonies over the years, he said.
At the end of the indoor ceremony, participants moved outside to the parking lot, where Christine Jordan, Walworth County Veterans Services coordinator, released four balloons carrying a short biography of Marine Cpl. Michael Larsen, 22, of Spring Valley, Wis., who was killed in Afghanistan on June 27.
Larsen was the third Wisconsin native to die in Afghanistan in June. U.S. Army Pvt. Ryan Larson of Friendship was killed June 15 and Army Spc. Tyler Kreinz of Beloit died June 18.
Every Monday morning since Nov. 29, 2004, the American Legion has held rallies in the Government Center in Elkhorn. Webster originally started the weekly vigil as a 10-week program.
Support Our Troops took on a life of its own, and celebrated its 300th consecutive ceremony on Nov. 8, 2010.

CEDAR RAPIDS — It's official. A day after news came that Smulekoff's had sold its downtown building to the city the company also confirms it is closing after 125 years in business with no plans to relocate.
Customers who came by the store on Third Avenue S.E. in downtown Cedar Rapids may have gotten the news when they pulled the handle and found the doors locked. Many then saw the sign that said the store was closed to prepare for a going-out-of-business sale and reopening Saturday, August 30th.
One customer, Derek Loffer, was sad when he heard the news.
"To see something go out of business after 125 years is pretty sad for the town," Loffer said. Another shopper who still wanted to place a special order, Darcy Caraway, echoed that feeling.
"It's too bad they can't find an interested buyer for the business as it exists because I know they have a following," Caraway said
Theresa Blair, Smulekoff's advertising and commercial manager, said the store will still take special orders until this coming Saturday. They had planned a shorter closing time to prepare for the sale. But the news Monday about the sale of the building to the city prompted the earlier closing to retag sale items.
"We had a lot to do. This is a big place with a big warehouse with a lot of accessories. So we're reorganizing the floors," Blair said.
Blair said the store has about 50 employees. The owners hope all continue working until the sale concludes or the end of the year arrives and the city takes possession of the five-story building.
Blair confirmed that Smulekoff's did look hard at a move to Westdale Mall which is beginning a massive renovation. But she said it didn't work out
Competition and the impact of flood damage in 2008 also took a toll on the business in recent years.
But Blair insisted the number one reason for taking a building buyout remains fears of how future flood protection work would impact a working furniture store.
"The decision was made early after the flood that with a movable flood wall six inches to a foot off our back wall we wouldn't be able to operate here," Blair said.
Blair said the owners would retain a nearby warehouse building on Sixth Street that housed furniture for the store. There are no current plans for that warehouse.

Two questions I frequently get from green or solar homeowners and homebuyers who are considering purchasing or retrofitting a home with green or solar features: Is there additional market resale value associated with a green home? And will the value be realized in an appraisal?
Homes that are energy and water efficient, or are outfitted with solar energy generation features, are often referred to as "high-performance homes" because these homes outperform their more conventional counterparts in efficiency and cost effectiveness in measurable and documentable ways.
High-performance home sales around the country are the fastest-growing segment of the market, and buyers are demonstrating that they are willing to pay a premium for these homes. These buyers understand that these homes are actually less expensive to own and operate than conventional homes, and that they are usually more comfortable and more enjoyable live in as well.
We are in the early stages of establishing the resale market for high-performance homes in the Las Cruces area because an increased number of green and solar homes are now on the market. Builders and owners are concerned about being able to realize an appropriate value for the features in which they have invested. Appraisals are, for the most part, based on comparison of homes similar in size, amenities and location that have sold within a certain number of months. If there are no comparable high-performance homes sales available for comparison, appraisers may use conventional homes for their comparison, resulting in no additional value is assigned for the high-performance features.
Fortunately, there is good news. The Appraisal Institute, the leading provider of education for real estate appraisers, has been very proactive in its efforts to standardize and educate appraisers in the valuation of homes with green features. In 2011, it developed a form to be added to a residential appraisal for a green or solar home, called the Residential Green and Energy Efficient Addendum, to document the green, energy efficient and solar features of a home. The appraiser certifies that the information has been considered in the development of the appraised value of the property. The form provides a way to document any green certifications that the home has earned -- or its Home Energy Rating System score -- which is a standardized third-party assessment of energy efficiency.
The Appraisal Institute is also working to improve the knowledge and expertise of appraisers. It has developed educational courses for appraisers to be able to incorporate the information on this form to provide a more accurate valuation of green, energy efficient or solar homes.
Builders, homeowners, lenders and real estate professionals need to be aware that they have a right to expect a competent appraiser to determine the value of their property. In fact, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac actually hold the lender responsible for choosing competent appraisers, even if they go through a third party appraisal management company. An appraiser must have completed the training provided by the Appraisal Institute, or otherwise be able to show they have the knowledge and skills necessary. Contrary to what many people believe:
•Sellers can talk with appraisers about the special features of a property.
•Documents can and should be provided about the green features of a home.
•Sellers can accompany the appraiser on the inspection to point out special features of the home.
As a seller of a high-performance home, what should you do to prepare for a successful appraisal?
Step 1: Be sure to let the lender involved know that the home is a high-performance home. The lender is responsible for choosing an appraiser who is competent to appraise your property, even if they go through a appraisal management company.
Step 2: Gather all of the documentation available on your high-performance home, including green certifications, HERS Index score, all high-performance system specifications, renewable energy equipment production, manufacturer's warranties, utility costs and savings, tax incentives and rebates.
Step 3: Download a copy of the Appraisal Institute's Residential Green and Renewable Energy Addendum by visiting appraisalinstitute.org, and complete as much of the form as possible. For assistance, talk with your builder, the contractors involved or the certified rater who provided the HERS Index score.
Step 4: Provide the form and all the supporting documentation to your lender, who will then pass it on to the appraiser who is selected to perform the appraisal. Most appraisers who are not familiar with this form will refuse the assignment. If an appraiser does not deselect themselves, but cannot demonstrate their competence in appraising a green property, the lender can deselect them and move on to the next appraiser.
Step 5: You may want to accompany the appraiser when they do the on-site inspection of the property to point out special features or provide further explanation.
At this point, your job is done.

Annual U.S. construction value forecast to reach $919 billion
Posted By Wayne Grayson On April 9, 2013 @ 11:29 am In Construction News | No Comments
The value of annual construction is expected to show an increase of 8 percent over 2012 levels, according to a recent report from FMI.
In its first quarter 2013 Construction Outlook, FMI, a management consulting and investment banking provider for the engineering and construction industry, forecasts the U.S. value of construction-put-in-place to rise to a level of $919 billion this year.
And while the report deems the estimate a "solid improvement," it says it doesn't expect annual construction to return to a value of $1 trillion until 2015.
The report forecasts a 23-percent rise in the construction of single-family homes in 2013 to a value of $161 billion. That would follow a 19-percent increase in 2012. The report forecasts multifamily housing to improve 47 percent in 2013.
As many industries have seen signs of economic recovery and are now planning for growth, lodging construction is expected to grow 10 percent in 2013, office construction is forecast to grow 5 percent and commercial construction is expected to grow 7 percent to a value of $50.3 billion.
FMI expects health care construction to grow 8 percent to $44.2 billion in 2013. The report forecasts a 6 percent increase for manufacturing and between 8 and 9-percent growth in power-related construction.
Update: FMI released a correction to its figures. Single-family housing construction value in 2013 was meant to be forecast as $161 billion, not million. The figure has been updated above.

|Quality of life of patients with otitis media and caregivers: a multicenter study.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 17003729 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to determine the quality of life of otitis media (OM) patients and their caregivers. STUDY DESIGN: A cross-sectional study was conducted at 11 otolaryngology and five pediatric clinics in the United States between July 1998 and August 1999. All patients, regardless of primary complaint, completed a demographic survey, OM-6 survey, and Child Health Questionaire-PF28 survey by proxy. Physicians completed an International Classification of Diseases, 9th Revision diagnosis sheet for each patient. METHODS: Analysis, including Spearman rank correlation, was restricted to study patients with active OM. RESULTS: A total of 1,001 patients with active OM were identified: 503 OM with effusion, 267 acute OM, and 258 recurrent acute OM. Median patient age was 2 years (interquartile range, 1-5). Mean caretaker age was 32.6 years (standard deviation, 7.4). There was moderate correlation between OM frequency and physical suffering (r = 0.50; P < .001) and caregiver concerns (r = 0.45; P < .001). Moderate correlation was found between percentage of time with fluid in the ears and caregiver concerns (r = 0.46; P < .001) and physical suffering (r = 0.43; P < .001). OM patients over 5 years of age scored significantly worse than healthy children ages 5 to 7 years in almost all areas of global health, including physical functioning and impact on caretaker's personal time and emotions. CONCLUSION: The global quality of life of patients with OM over 5 years of age is worse than that of healthy children of similar age. Physical suffering and caregiver concerns are associated with frequent OM or effusion duration. Hopefully, these results will direct the focus of future outcomes studies.

The Urban Economics of Climate Change Adaptation
I'm on a bus heading to Cornell University. Tomorrow, I will give a talk titled; "Adapting to Climate Change: An Urban Economist's Perspective". Click on the link to see my slides. My optimistic talk poses some questions for macro modelers such Prof. Nordhaus and Prof. Weitzman. For young scholars seeking exciting research questions, I pose dozens of riddles that I expect will set an agenda. There is a lot of work that needs to be done on a range of environmental and urban economics issues focused on the system of cities and the role that urbanization will play in protecting us from climate change's blows.

School bus video cameras on board
BATON ROUGE - The Pointe Coupee Parish School District will install cameras on each of the district's owner-operated school buses.
The school district will spend $22,000 on the equipment.
School Superintendent Linda D'Amico says the cameras will give the district an extra tool to monitor and curb any disciplinary problems that should arise in the future.
Officials say the cameras will help easily identify conflicts between students, ease the stress on bus drivers through more visual supervision and decrease behavior problems.
D'Amico says 22 buses are owner operated in the parish.
D'Amico says a surveillance camera will be outfitted in the front and rear of each owner-operated school bus. She says there's no timetable to get the cameras installed.
