Apartments top 2007 real estate deals
The housing market may have been sluggish in 2007, but East Tennessee's apartment sector was hot. While a pair of prime office properties changed hands and a big land deal on Kingston Pike made waves, the top real estate deals in Knox County were dominated by apartments. Steve Massey, an executive vice president at CB Richard Ellis, in Nashville, specializes in multifamily properties and represented the seller on the Crossing Place Apartments, a $23 million deal that came in at No. 6 on this year's list. Massey said that in 2007 there were a lot of buyers with equity to put in deals, and a lot of lenders willing to provide financing on favorable terms. "So it was just a lot of money chasing a limited amount of product," he said. Real estate investors who buy Knoxville apartment buildings shouldn't expect to see huge jumps in rental income from them.
Rudd warns of economic challenges
PRIME Minister Kevin Rudd today issued a renewed warning about the economic challenges facing Australia amid concerns about the health of the US and Asian economies. Listing the possible dangers ahead, he accused the former Howard government of leaving Australia with a legacy of inflation that was making conditions more difficult. Mr Rudd said he was mindful of the global fallout from the US sub-prime mortgage crisis affecting world credit markets. "We believe that we are facing a dual set of significant economic challenges,'' Mr Rudd told reporters. "One is global. The global economy, downward revisions of growth coming off the back of US sub-prime, ramifications of that across Europe, some slackening of demand in Japan, and you see the outcome of that in terms of the IMF numbers for global growth being trimmed.
Tate ready to leave recruiting process behind
Tate made the two-mile trip up Rt. 1 to Maryland on Wednesday, and Locksley was in Hyattsville on Thursday. All three coaches have connections to the state of Maryland and have something working in their favor. Maryland has other DeMatha graduates in its starting lineup, and is the perfect location for Tate, who is close to his family and wants them nearby. But last season, Locksley signed DeMatha linebacker Ian Thomas, one of Tate's friends, and Locksley -- a former recruiting coordinator for Maryland -- knows McGregor well. And Penn State impressed Tate on his official visit Jan. 19, and is still in driving distance. Plus, Johnson was head coach at McDonough High School in Pomfret, Md., for 19 years and played one season with the Redskins, so he, too, has had success in plucking talent from the area.
McDonald's mice 'becoming human'
One of the most popular is that a switch to a high quality diet allowed our ancestors to fuel larger brains (the "expensive tissue hypothesis)". "This suggestion sounds very reasonable. But we had yet no direct evidence that human and chimp diets differed in their molecular effects. "This we find in our study - with respect to liver - and also that diet-induced differences in mice overlap with differences between humans and chimps. .
RV workers say uncertainty at all-time high
Experts say it's no coincidence that the bad news is hitting from all sides. "They're all looking at the same data, and they're all arriving at the same conclusions, and the data's just not very pretty," said Indiana University South Bend Economics Professor Dr. Lane David. "In the RV industry and the automotive industry, there's definitely a recession already, and we're seeing the effects of that." They aren't hard to glimpse. More than 100 workers from Monaco and other smaller local RV makers packed into unemployment offices in Elkhart and South Bend Monday alone. It's the largest one day volume from the RV industry that WorkOne business manager Howard Blackwood can ever remember. "Normally we do not see that," said Blackwood. "If they close down one plant, they tend to reabsorb it in the other plants." Blackwood believes that means the worst may still lie ahead.
November foreclosures take a dip
Nevada, Florida and Ohio continued to lead all other states in foreclosure rates. Nevada had one filing for every 152 households. The state, which has led the foreclosure lists for the past 11 months, recorded a 1 percent rise from October and a 167 percent leap from a year ago. Florida moved into second place despite a 3 percent month-to-month drop. It recorded 212 percent more filings this November than last. Ohio foreclosures fell 6 percent in November, pushing it from second to third place. Foreclosures have still nearly doubled there compared with last November. California, where the foreclosure rate was one for every 325 households had more total filings than any other state with 39,992. The numbers fell month-to-month by more than 20 percent but have risen 107 percent for the year.
Much ado about next to nothing
She would walk miles before turning for home and for evening church. Neighbors greeted her as she passed. She nodded or waved, looking up from her path only to greet the children and hand them some small thing from the plastic bag. She reached the highway and made her turn, looking ahead only briefly to inspect her path. She walked well off the roadway with her back to the traffic yet seemed to ignore it in her steadfast stride. She swayed occasionally in the wind wash of big trucks and started reflexively at the ominous sounds of sirens or horns or the screeching of tires, yet continued without pause as she had done for years. She remembered things while she walked. She remembered loves and losses, remembered children and injuries, remembered friends and families, but they seemed long ago.
