The official groundbreaking for Fort Lewis College's new Geosciences, Physics and Engineering Building will take place on Friday, October 17 at 12 p.m. at the northwest corner of Berndt Hall along Rim Drive. Everyone is welcome.
The Colorado Legislative Council Staff announced today that the state would fund phase two of the Fort Lewis College Geosciences, Physics and Engineering Building.
Growing up on a farm in Minnesota might not seem like the obvious beginning of a scientist's life, but Dr. Ryan Haaland can trace the genesis of his future career path to those early days. Dr. Haaland is a professor of physics and the winner of the 2014-15 FLC Featured Scholar Award.
"I was always breaking and taking things apart on the farm," he recalls. "So I think that's where I got my curiosity for science and technological things."
Earning a mark of excellence recognized worldwide, the Fort Lewis College Engineering program has officially received accreditation from ABET, the international accrediting body for applied science, computing, engineering, and engineering technology programs. The stamp of approval for FLC Engineering comes just as the College is breaking ground for a new Geosciences, Physics and Engineering building.
Ask any of the 275 students in the Physics & Engineering Department at Fort Lewis College what a "sprite" is, and they're probably not going to tell you it's a soft drink or a green fairy from a mythical land. Their responses might be something more like this:
"A ghostly flash above the clouds."
"Violent, beautiful bursts of energy."
"Vertical, red-orangery lightning."
"A rare occurrence."

PITTSBURGH A Kansas City, Mo., scrapyard owner wants to open a 25-acre salvage yard in the city.
Krystyn Roberts of County Line Auto Parts is seeking a special-use permit from the Kansas City Board of Zoning Adjustment for an area zoned for manufacturing. The facility, Green Auto Recycling & Metals LLC, also would provide unspecified recycling services. There is no timetable for when the request will be considered.
Roberts, who could not be reached for comment, established Green Auto Recycling in July 2011, according to state corporation records.

Egads, this is just chilling.
Egads, this is just chilling.
To kick off my 10/10 project — 10 MMOs I've never played in 10 days — I decided to go back to a title that pioneered free-to-play and browser-based online gaming, RuneScape. It's amazing how long this game's been out there and how popular it's remained.
Making a new account and getting into the game was exceedingly easy. Just an email address and password, then about a minute for a loading screen, and I was in. I've got to say, that was a huge plus.
I guess RuneScape doesn't really do classes so much as a skill-based system, so character creation was picking the visuals for my toon. There's only the option to be a human (boo) and the graphics, well, let's talk about the graphics for a minute. Even with so many years of development, RuneScape's visuals still skew toward 1997-era PlayStation 3D blockiness. Seriously, I haven't seen this type of primitive chunky polygon design in a long, long time. Whenever the game zoomed in on character faces it got downright ridiculous how bad it looked.
Yet there are two factors that overcome mere looks. The first is that it allows a full-fledged MMO to run in a browser, and that ain't nothing. The second is that there is a ton — I mean, a ton — of personality in the animations. It adds up to a cartoony feel that made me look at the game as a cartoony style, and that was that. I was OK with the looks.
What I was less OK with, and never quite resolved, was how RuneScape handled. It's click-to-move with arrow keys moving the camera, either pulled back in an isometric view or swooped in to over-the-shoulder. It felt slow and unresponsive to me, particularly movement but also whenever I'd ask the game to perform an action, as there'd be a second of lag. Combat was also rather underwhelming, as I couldn't really tell if my character was attacking with her magic staff or if her abilities were doing much at all.
But what I found is that RuneScape isn't primarily a combat-centric MMO, which I guess I knew but didn't really realize until just then. The opening zone moves you through the different types of activities that your character can perform, including combat, gathering, and crafting, as you level up your various skills. I had to outfit a soldier by making him a helmet and gloves, exercise my thieving skills on some snooty rich merchants, and fry up some crawfish for hungry soldiers. Actually, aside from the opening scene and one point where I had to kill a cow, I wasn't engaging in combat at all. That felt different and not unwelcome.
What I probably liked most of all is the cheeky dialogue and sense of humor that ran through it all. RuneScape made me chuckle at least twice in this first play session, and I was pleased that the NPCs had memorable personalities (and occasional voice-overs) instead of being boring cutouts. At one point, the game had me deliver a poison pie to a fat jerk, and I had the option to listen in on him barfing everywhere or not. Of course I did.
That's another nice aspect: choices. The game kept throwing me little choices, either in dialogue or actions, and it was quite effective in pulling me into the world. Do I fire a baby troll out of a cannon or save it? Saving it netted me a cute little pet, but I had to wonder what it would've been like to see that cannon fire.
Would I play it again? The question I'll ask myself at the end of these articles is if this initial foray into the game was intriguing enough to make me log in again. With RuneScape, it's probably a no. The clunky controls are a big deal-breaker. If I was a poor kid in the early 2000s with no other alternative, however, I could see myself getting into it.
Chalk this up to the "probably has been there forever but I just found out about it today" column, but RuneScape's made a huge amount of its soundtrack available for free. Right here. There are even remixes and shanties. SHANTIES, people! The second best word in the world that ends in "anties"! I wish every MMO studio would do this for their music.
Update: And here's some for Ryzom that's also free!
And yes, I'm adding that to the MMO Music page on this here site. As always, if you know of any MMO scores that are either (a) for sale through a digital download somewhere or (b) being given out for free — legally — by the studio, let me know!
In an exercise designed to satiate a whiff of whimsy, I wanted to plot out an entire year of MMORPG gaming, where each month a player would hypothetically play a different title for free, paying $0 for their year's experience. What would I recommend starting with December? Hang on to my every word, faithful readers, and let's see:
December 2009 – For the Yuletide season, I'm going to recommend an old favorite of mine, Dungeon Runners, a sort-of snarky Diablo clone that enjoyed exaggerating and mocking RPG conventions while feeding your desire for mayhem and loot frenzy. Since the title is being shut down on January 1, 2010 (with a nuclear explosion, as a matter of fact), this is the absolute last month to play it, and perhaps the best — they're really jacking up the loot drops and XP rewards for DR's final weeks.
January 2010 – Why not use the first month of the new decade to reconnect with a MMO of yore? Anarchy Online has been running free-to-play for a couple years now (although with certain limitations if you don't subscribe). It may not have the glitz and glamour of more modern MMOs, but it's one of the only "old school" titles that let people tromp around for nothing!
February 2010 – Assuming that Chronicles of Spellborn is still in "redevelopment", or whatever that means, you can play this recent title for absolutely nothing — and that includes the full game! Of course, there's the very real chance that some day they might pull the plug or wipe the servers, but it's a small price to pay for free fun.
March 2010 – Get your Harry Potter on by signing up for Wizard101, the acclaimed title that mixes together turn-based combat and bright wizardy venues. They have an unlimited free trial that certainly gives you a nice big chunk of the early game, which took my wife and I a few weeks to run through earlier this year.
April 2010 – Warhammer Online's "endless trial" is next up for your gaming pleasure — the full Tier 1 experience, with 24 classes, PvE and PvP is yours for the taking. If you're willing to roll up a few alts, then this will more than meet a full month's worth of fun.
May 2010 – Ever since switching to its hybrid free-to-play/microtransactions/subscription model, Dungeons & Dragons Online has earned the title of the best free MMO you can get your grubby mitts on. It comes highly recommended from myself, and the free content is quite expansive, certainly more than a month's worth.
June 2010 – Cute little Asian MMOs that are funded entirely through microtransactions might not be your thing (and they certainly aren't mine), but Maple Story is one of the best and most beloved if it is. So enlarge your eyes to 500% of their normal size, color your hair bright blue, and embrace 2D zaniness.
July 2010 – An Adventurer Is You! Or so proclaims the folks over at the long-running Kingdom of Loathing, one of the wittiest browser-based MMOs in the world. There's no catch on the cost (players who want to support the game can purchase special items in the shop), and the wordy game has enraptured many a soul — including mine.
August 2010 – We'll assume that by next August, Allods Online will have left beta and gone into full launch, in which case you might already have heard the siren's call to play it. It's been getting excellent press so far, and for a free to play title, why not give it a whirl in the dog days of summer?
September 2010 – Many a MMORPG player has cut their teeth on Runescape, the free to play browser MMO that showed how far the limits of Java could go. It might not be the most polished or good-looking title, but it's had a number of overhauls and revamps, and hey — it's light on the wallet.
October 2010 – Speaking of runes, Runes of Magic bowled a lot of people over in 2009 as both a decent WoW clone and an excellent free to play title. They've already released their first expansion (also free), and you could certainly do a lot worse than give this a try, particularly if you are a current or former WoWhead.
November 2010 – Sword of the New World is one of those odd little MMO cult hits that you know, intellectually, are better than the rest of the pack, but may have yet to ever give it a whirl. So why not, in this last month of our hypothetical experiment, do just that?

Several Pats all-conference
Several Marshall Academy baseball players have received all-conference honors, and two of those, seniors Hunter Bolden and Chris Gardner, will play in the Mississippi Private School Association All-Star Game.
The Class AA-AAA all-star contest is set for Saturday, May 23, at 11 a.m. at Smith-Wills Stadium in Jackson.
All-conference players
Hunter Bolden, a senior outfielder, was named the District 1-AA Most Valuable Player and was also selected to the MPSA All Star game. He batted .386 with seven home runs and 41 RBI, which led the team. He also had 10 doubles and four triples. Bolden struck out only 11 times in 128 plate appearances. He hit safely in 26 of 34 games played and was 12 for 12 in stolen bases. He committed only one error all season. Bolden is a four-year member of the all-conference squad.
Chris Gardner, a senior pitcher, was selected to the MPSA All Star game after posting a 6-3 record and a 2.90 earned run average. The Northwest Mississippi Community College signee appeared in 13 games, starting 10. He struck out 69 batters in 62 and two-thirds innings pitched and allowed only 46 hits. Gardner walked only 16 batters all season. He also notched one save. It was his second season as All Conference pick after an 11-2 record as a junior. He batted .288 with 10 doubles, two home runs and 20 RBI.
Tyler Childers, a junior shortstop, made the all-conference team for a third year. He batted .333 with six home runs, eight doubles and one triple. He also had 30 RBI and was 15 of 16 in stolen base attempts.
Parker James, a junior outfielder, was the team leader in average (.433) stolen bases (17) and sacrifice flys (five). He also had 31 RBI and four extra base hits, all doubles. He struck out a miniscule seven times in 123 plate appearances.
Joey Brock, a sophomore pitcher, is a first-year member of the all-conference team. He really blossomed on the mound, sporting a 5-1 record with a 4.23 earned run average. He struck out 56 in 46 and one-third innings pitched, walking only 24. Brock appeared in 11 games, starting eight.
Josh Vanderburg, a sophomore catcher, batted .288 for the season but .435 in District 1-AA play after transferring from DeSoto Central High School. He started 34 games behind the plate. Vanderburg had 11 doubles, two triples and 21 RBI.
Honorable Mention all conference
Jake Omedeo, a junior first baseman, batted .294 with four doubles, a triple and 21 RBI.
Caleb Byrd, a junior second baseman, batted .308 with five doubles, two triples and 23 RBI.

It's that time of year when the AMSOIL/STREET RODDER Road Tour project is wrapping up another summer of crisscrossing the country, attending events and leading the way on eight participant legs; or as we like to say around the office, "Jerry Dixey and his traveling road show proving once again hot rod parts work—because the man can break an anvil."
Under the watchful eye of Troy Ladd of Hollywood Hot Rods (HHR) this year's project was fabricated utilizing Miller Electric Mfg. Co. welding equipment, assembled with Eastwood tools, and a bucket full of stainless fasteners from Totally Stainless. We began with a newly minted '40 Ford coupe sheetmetal from Dennis Carpenter Ford Restoration Parts (DC) with the assembled panels crafted into a finished body by Real Deal Steel. The end result is an entire car (body, fenders, running boards, hood, decklid, and so on). Of course, hot rodders being, well, hot rodders the fresh sheetmetal underwent a number of changes, not the least of which being a top chop. You don't see many (if any!) '40 coupes with chopped tops but HHR proved that it could be done "right", yielding a subtle enhancement to the already beautiful lines that a stock '40 was "born" with. A number of other sheetmetal changes occurred, such as the cowl vent removal, mods to the floorboard, and rear inner fenderwells, body seams filled, and a firewall makeover to allow for the modern Ford Coyote V-8.
The coupe was then neatly packaged on a Fatman Fabrications chassis that's outfitted with their narrowed 2-inch polished stainless Mustang II IFS and custom-fabricated sway bar. In back, a Strange Engineering 9-inch rearend is fitted with 3-inch tubes with large axle bearings, and a Strange 9-inch nodular iron "S" case filled with AMSOIL Inc. gear lube and limited-slip additive. Strange also supplied the single-adjustable coilover shocks with Hypercoil springs (fronts rated at 550 pounds, while the rears are 325 pounds).
Whoa and show at the corners falls to the mounted Wilwood Engineering disc brakes and Billet Vintiques wheels with BFGoodrich rubber. The polished 88 series Lakester slugs were specked in front at 17x7 while the rears are 18x9.5 with both ends having a 5-inch backspace and a 4.5-inch bolt circle (Ford). The rubber is the performance-based BFGoodrich g-Force Super Sport A/S with the fronts measuring 225/45ZR17 (25 inches tall) and the rears measure 275/40ZR18 (27 inches tall). Steering comes by way of Flaming River power rack-and-pinion (AMSOIL Inc. steering fluid) that's narrowed 2 inches across the mainshaft.
Nestled between the Fatman framerails is the latest and most potent Ford Racing Performance powerplant in the Coyote V-8 with its 412-plus horsepower and 400-plus lb-ft of torque. (Notice we write "plus" as it's truly amazing what this engine can do in factory trim with a little tweaking.) Bolted to the Coyote is an enhanced Gearstar 4R70W, a wide-ratio four-speed automatic and torque converter (HGM Automotive Electronics controller) both filled with AMSOIL Inc. tranny fluid. When it comes time to shift the Gearstar it's run through its gears via a Twist Machine paddle shifter or the Lokar Performance floor-mounted Nostalgia shifter. The Flaming River mahogany and chrome three-spoke steering wheel (13.8 inch diameter) with chrome beauty ring and horn button fits neatly over the paddles. Continuing the Coyote power rearward is a Dynotech Engineering Service driveshaft linked to the Strange 9-inch rearend equipped with Trac-Lok limited-slip 3.70 gears and 31-spline axles. Other rear suspension appointments include a special tubular sway bar built for Fatman and RideTech swivel PosiLinks. (A 2-inch narrowed tubular sway bar was also made for the Fatman IFS.)
All of this power and handling ability at some point needs to come to a halt and that's where we look to a Wilwood brake system that begins with an under floorboard mounted Wilwood 1-inch bore master cylinder filled to the rim with AMSOIL Inc. brake fluid. The gripping components are made up of 13-inch drilled-and-slotted front and rear rotors along with a set of six-piston calipers. (The rear disc brakes are also equipped with parking brake mechanics.) The front hubs, rotors, and calipers surround a pair of Wilwood 2-inch dropped spindles.

Guillermo Ignacio Cañas (born November 25, 1977) is an Argentine professional tennis player. He was born in Argentina's capital, Buenos Aires, and named after Argentine tennis star Guillermo Vilas. His highest singles ranking was 8th (June 2005).
Cañas plays a defensive counter-punching game from the baseline, and utilises his retrieving skills in order to frustrate opponents. He uses a double-handed backhand and his favourite surface is clay, but he is adept on hardcourt and grass too.

This is it, everybody. The final chance for the two finalists to put on their best puppy-dog faces and plead for our votes. For their final performances Scotty and Lauren had to sing their favorite song from a previous performance, a song by their own idols, and what will be their first single if they win. Both contestants did well, and Jennifer wore a dress that looked like it was stolen from Charo's closet.
The Good:
- Lauren's rendition of "Maybe It Was Memphis." Granted, it was a little cheesy, but something about her raspy belting and puffy Dolly Parton dress made me smile.
- Scotty's performance of "Check Yes or No." Again, it was super-schmaltzy, but it's the type of song he's meant to sing, and in that sense it highlighted his strengths perfectly.
The Bad:
- Lauren's final song about how great her mom is. I suppose it was sweet and all, but definitely not first single material. I also thought it was a bit overboard with the emotions, but that might be because I have no soul.
- Scotty's single, "I Love You This Big." BOOOOOORING!
Best Quotes:
- "How do you feel about the last Oprah?" – Ryan awkwardly trying to fill time while Taio Cruz takes the stage.
- "It was everything it needed to be and you sang it the way you needed to." – Jennifer (Bold statement there. Way to take a stand!)
Elimination Prediction:
At this point I think Scotty still has a slight lead, but Lauren is right behind him, so really at this point it could be either of them. Tomorrow should be interesting!

Lavon Hooks as a Junior College transfer took a few games to get adjusted to the SEC but on the October matchup with LSU the "switch was flipped" and he looks to make an even bigger jump in production in 2014 as a Senior.
Norcross, GA native comes to Ole Miss via Northeast MS Community College. The 6-foot 3-inch, 300 pound defensive tackle was highly sought after in 2013. Hooks had a long list of awards and teams to choose from as a Junior. 247Sports.com listed Hooks as the top Juco player over all in 2013. He was the #1 rated Juco DT by JCGridiron.com and the top Juco player in Mississippi by Clarionledger.com.
He choose Ole Miss over Mississippi State, Auburn, Nebraska and Washington according to this ESPN story by Kipp Adams.
Hooks started in two games last year but played in 12 games providing quality depth at the tackle position. His best games last year:
- 10/19/13 Two tackles and a sack against LSU
- 11/9/13 Two tackles and a half a tackle for loss against Arkansas.
There is a natural adjustment for first year players whether it is a freshman or a transfer. In 2014, Freeze expects to have a full two deep at the defensive tackle position, with Issac Gross, Bryon Bennett, Hooks and the fourth tackle will be freshman phenom Robert Nkemdiche, who will be used more at the tackle position rather than end.
There will be opportunities to use guys like Hooks and Nkemdiche at the end position, against more physical run-first teams, but their primary position will be in the trenches.
It is reasonable to expect Hooks will get off to a faster start this year compared to last and he will provide a stronger contribution in run defense.
This spring an ankle sprain prevented him from showing his full abilities but at 100%, Hooks will help build a wall on the Ole Miss defensive line in 2014.

Chuckanut Ridge: Due diligence or negligence?Permalink +
Sun, Oct 02, 2011, 9:29 am // Larry Horowitz
How likely are you to buy real estate in today's market based on an 18-month old appraisal prepared by the seller? Well, if you pay taxes in Bellingham, your mayor and City Council are about to do just that. And, in a BIG way.
In eight days, the city plans to close on an $8 million purchase using funds voluntarily contributed by taxpayers to acquire park land and facilities. The purchase price of $8.23 million is based solely on an outdated appraisal prepared in early 2010 for the seller, Washington Federal.
- The city has not prepared its own current appraisal.
- The city has not involved its own real estate experts.
- The city has not hired a professional appraiser to review the outdated appraisal prepared for WA Fed.
In short, the city has failed to perform due diligence. Is it possible the city is about to significantly overpay for this property?
Let's consider the facts:
1) The property in question, Chuckanut Ridge (aka Fairhaven Highlands,) is currently zoned high density, multi-family for 739 units. It is common knowledge, which has been confirmed by several key city officials, that the current zoning is inappropriate and violates a number of goals and policies of the city's comp plan. Once the city takes possession, the property will be downzoned and the value reduced accordingly.
2) According to the draft environmental impact statement (DEIS,) which is in disastrous shape and will require a massive undertaking and more than $100,000 to complete:
"Environmentally critical areas cover almost the entire site. The flattest areas on the site are either wetlands or would need to be set aside as wetland buffers. Most of the remainder of the site contains erosion-prone soils that have slopes of 15 percent slope or more, steep enough to heighten concerns about erosion potential, and some limited areas are considered landslide-prone."
A real developer's dream!
3) The city has $5 million available and plans to borrow $3.3 million to complete the acquisition. The city's default (and most likely) plan to repay the loan is to sell a portion of the property. Based on the purchase price of $8.23 million, the city would need to sell 40% to repay the loan. If the property is actually worth $6 million, the city will need to sell 55%. At a valuation of $5 million, 65% will need to be sold. Considering the extent of wetlands and steep slopes, it's very possible the city will need to sell every square inch of developable land to raise $3.3 million. The end result: The city will have spent $5 million for undevelopable wetlands, wetland buffers, and steep slopes. Quite the deal!
4) Development of this property must first satisfy the transportation prerequisite: either construct a connector road or widen the bridge to Fairhaven. Construction of the connector road would violate laws that regulate wetlands and steep slopes. Widening of the bridge has been determined to be cost-prohibitive by the previous owner. As it stands now, satisfying the prerequisite is either illegal or does not pencil out. Is the property even developable?
5) Opposition to any development on this property is strong, well-organized, well-financed, and long-lived. The opposition is not going away, regardless of who owns the property. Any developer who doesn't already know this has been living under a rock.
6) For a measly $1,000, the city can hire - even at this late date - a professional appraiser to perform a desk review of the obsolete WA Fed appraisal. I spoke with an appraiser who does this work almost exclusively for banks. He was "very surprised" the city has neither prepared its own appraisal nor professionally evaluated the bank's appraisal. In his experience, properties he appraised one year ago are now being re-appraised at half the value it was just twelve months ago.
I know if I were mayor or a member of Council, I would surely spend $1,000 now to potentially save millions on this acquisition.
Does failing to do so honor the city's fiduciary responsibility when spending funds voluntarily contributed by taxpayers?
Does failing to do so amount to negligence on the part of elected officials?
What would you do?
John Watts // Sun, Oct 02, 2011, 2:40 pm
I seems you & I do agree on something.
Imagine that.
Clayton Petree // Sun, Oct 02, 2011, 5:44 pm
Well said Larry. If/when the city has to sell off a portion, I don't think it will be as simple as "hey, let's sell off this small chunk for the balance". IF they are going to do this, the city needs to know what portion, how it could or couldn't be developed, and they need to know if that portion is valuable enough to actually pay for it before they make the purchase.
Larry Horowitz // Sun, Oct 02, 2011, 6:33 pm
It's likely I haven't been very clear as to where I'm headed with this. I suspect once I have, I may lose your support as well as the support of John Watts.
I have been actively involved in fighting the disastrous Fairhaven Highlands project and preserving the ecologically sensitive Chuckanut Ridge for more than six years. I am confident that the property is not highly sought after by developers and is not extremely valuable from a development perspective.
I believe an accurate appraisal that reflects the 'facts' on the ground will determine the market value for the property is much lower than the $8.23 million contract price. In fact, I believe the value will be low enough for the entire property to be acquired - permanently - with either a very small loan or no loan at all. If the price is more than the $5 million available from Greenways and park impact fees, I believe the differential will be small enough for the local community to raise the funds to retire the debt within six years.
The current 'deal', which requires a loan of $3.3 million, should be re-negotiated based on a revised appraisal. Once re-negotiated, I believe the need for selling a portion of devalued land will disappear entirely.
It's true that the $3.3 million loan is a significant problem. However, that problem is caused by overpaying for the land. Solve the overpayment problem, and the loan problem goes away.
That's where I'm headed. Do I still have your support?
Clayton Petree // Sun, Oct 02, 2011, 7:06 pm
I know exactly where you are going with this. There are 7 council votes to purchase the property. Given the support for the purchase, they really need to do things right.
Larry Horowitz // Sun, Oct 02, 2011, 10:07 pm
Is it simply wishful thinking to believe the mayor and Council might revisit a decision when the evidence clearly suggests the decision should be re-visited?
It has been my experience that the city abhors going back once the train has left the station, even if the train is going in the wrong direction. It takes great courage to do so, but I have been told many times that it's just not going to happen. It's too easy to marginalize critics like you, John and me. It'll be the city attorney's word against ours, and we all know how that's going to work out. I don't see Gene or Barry or Michael or Seth or Terry or Jack or Stan having the stomach to deal with this mess. The best approach is the ostrich-like head-in-the-sand approach. I'm pretty sure that's what we can expect.
Tip Johnson // Sun, Oct 02, 2011, 11:12 pm
Ostrich in the sand? Bird in the hand? Two in the bush? When should one push?
Larry Horowitz // Sun, Oct 02, 2011, 11:39 pm
Good questions; but a better one might be:
When making an $8 million land purchase (the single largest land acquisition in the city's history), would best management practices require the city to obtain its own current appraisal and/or hire a professional appraiser to critically review an outdated and potentially obsolete 18-month old appraisal prepared by the seller?
It's not a matter of having a bird in the hand or pushing at the wrong time. It's a matter of due diligence vs. negligence. It's a matter of fiduciary responsibility.
Why should - or would - the city pay millions more than any other potential buyer?
Tip Johnson // Mon, Oct 03, 2011, 9:05 am
I have no objection to a current appraisal based on fact and agree it would behoove the City to have one. The last appraisal the City had done came in just over $3mm. Nothing on the site has changed since then, except for the DEIS having more or less proved the property is undevelopable. The 739 units administratively negotiated through a Memorandum of Agreement was just as improper and arbitrary as the original zoning at twice that density. All suppositions about development have been completely abstract, as they remain for the Council's recent decision to use this property as collateral for the bridge loan.
Bottom line? There is nothing there to sell that can approach the target value. That supports your premise that the price is too high, but undermines your theory that a greater percentage must be sold as the market value declines. Nothing to sell is nothing to sell, regardless of the value.
If the City wants to shift current Greenways policy toward enterprise to leverage acquisitions or improvements, it is foolhardy to pin their hopes on the one property with the least potential. It would be smarter to evaluate Greenways citywide and see which might be surplussed without impinging on park functionality, with low environmental impact, using existing infrastructure, at the least cost and most gain to the fund. That is extremely unlikely at Fairhaven Highlands/Chuckanut Ridge. Ask Horizon Bank!
Larry Horowitz // Mon, Oct 03, 2011, 10:22 am
I'd have a hard time supporting the sale of ANY Greenways properties, including Chuckanut Ridge. Fortunately, a revised appraisal and better negotiating tactics could alleviate the need to do so. Unfortunately, I don't see the mayor or Council having the courage to right this wrong.
John Watts // Mon, Oct 03, 2011, 1:12 pm
So, Larry,
Since agreement seems widespread that the City has committed too much toward this purchase, how do you propose to remedy the situation?
Sell a part? Raise money independently? Sue? [whom, and for what intent] Tar & Feather those responsible? Kick those ostrich butts? What?
Even if the City scrambled to get an after-the-fact appraisal, what good would that do?
Do you really expect the Mayor OR Council to backtrack on what they have already agreed to do? Seems that train has already left the station and is headed one-way into perpetual infamy.
Or, are you just exercising your right to blow off steam, pat yourself on the back for being so astute, and castigate others who lacked the conviction to demand due diligence?
Hey, weren't you the guy who claimed that 'rich people always win'?
Just take your tinsel trophy and wear it with discomfort!
And, make sure you flaunt it so everyone will notice.
Larry Horowitz // Mon, Oct 03, 2011, 1:41 pm
Wow, so much venom. Why are you directing your anger toward me?
Before getting involved with the Chuckanut Ridge issue in 2005, my primary experience had been working with business owners and business managers. Not one of them would move forward with a transaction of this magnitude if they found out they were overpaying by a substantial amount.
I have learned the hard way that government doesn't function like business. Perhaps because business owners and managers are directly impacted by the mistakes they make, they are more flexible and less stubborn when it comes to bringing a wayward train back to the station.
But I have not lost hope. Yes, I really hope Council will hire a professional appraiser to critically review the outdated 18-month old WA Fed appraisal. And, yes, I really hope that if they learn the property is not worth $8.23 million, they will re-negotiate a better deal. If WA Fed is not willing, perhaps the city can obtain a right-of-first-refusal for the $200,000 earnest money they have on deposit and use that earnest money toward a subsequent purchase at a lower price. I believe it's unlikely WA Fed will receive offers for anywhere near $8 mil.
Of course, what I believe CR is worth is simply my opinion. I am not a real estate expert; but neither is the mayor or Council. That's why you hire professionals when the stakes are so high. And that is what I have recommended.
Unlike you, I don't waste my time to simply blow off steam, pat myself on the back for being astute, castigate others, or flaunt a tinsel trophy while wearing it with discomfort. My time is spent hoping to change the outcome for the better.
BTW, have you not read your crap of a blog lately. I heard Google called and plans to change the name from "HamsterTalk" to "HamsterWhine". Got cheese?

Try Out Some Of This Crucial Home Security Advice
You are wise to be concerned about home security. It's impossible to tell when a criminal will break into your home to steal valuable possessions or attempt to harm the people inside. The tips in this article can help you fortify your home against invaders and threats.
Your dog can keep your spare house key for you. But, this is only effective if your home has a pet door or your dog stays outdoors when you are not home. Store a spare key within your dogs collar so you always have access to your home.
Ask friend for any advice they have prior to purchasing a security system or service. Your loved ones likely have dealt with this situation before. Ask a number of people to get a several different opinions.
Motion-sensor lights can alert you of a robbery before it even happens. Lights like these will automatically turn on whenever someone is near them. Not only will you know that someone is out there, it will also deter burglars because they want to be inconspicuous. Be sure to keep these lights working, though.
Always change the locks if you have someone move out of your home. This could be an ex-spouse or roommate you got into a fight with. Changing locks is not very expensive and should be done within a few hours.
Do you live outside the city? You might be less worried about home invasions than if you lived in an urban area. Interestingly, many think those living in rural areas are actually more susceptible to break-ins since neighbors may not live close by. Some people think burglaries are less prevalent in rural parts.
Skylights need to be secure, too. Although skylights provide your home with a lot of light, it is also very helpful for burglars to break in. Keep them secure with heavy duty hardware that closes them off to potential thieves.
Don't ever place your spare key under your mat or next you a plant box. Though you might think that you're giving yourself something you could use to get into your house when you've lost your keys, you're actually inviting intruders inside your house. Potential burglars know the usual hiding places. Instead, trust a neighbor to hold your spare key.
Be certain your wires are hidden, if you have installed a security system in your home. An intruder can easily disable your security system by cutting the wires. Make sure the wires are installed inside the walls of your home. This will make you much safer.
Change all of the locks in your new residence. Regardless of how trustworthy you consider the last owners to be, neither you nor they can be sure that there aren't others out there with keys to those locks. People may have lived in the home before those owners, too.
Rather than hoping your family will not be a victim of an intruder, be realistic. Understand that bad things can occur anytime; therefore, being prepared is extremely important. If you make use of the advice you've just read,www.homesecuritytown.com/, you should be able to make your home into a safer and more secure environment for your family.
