House Sales Keep Picking Up In Greater Hartford, But Prices Yet To ...

Homes sales in Greater Hartford marched higher for the eighth straight month in September, but sale prices did not follow suit.

A new report today from the Greater Hartford Association of Realtors showed the median sale price of single-family houses fell nearly 8 percent in September, compared with a year earlier, to $210,000, from $228,000. In August, the median sale price, on a year-over-year basis, in the association?s 57-town market rose 2.4 percent.

Closed sales rose 11 percent in September, to 711, from 641 a year ago.

Sales typically pick-up momentum before prices in a housing recovery. Despite the consistent gains in sales this year, no clear trend has emerged when it comes to prices.

?Sales should begin to move upward before our housing recovery is fully underway,? Jeff Arakelian, the association?s president and chief executive, said.

There were other positive signs in September, however. Houses under contract rose 26 percent, indicating sales are likely to remain on the upswing through the end of the year.

And the number of houses on the market dropped a little over seven percent to 6,365, from 6,861, the association said. Based on the number of sales in September, there is about a nine-month supply of houses for sale.

A six-month supply is said to favor neither buyer nor seller. The supply, as of September, still indicates a firm buyer?s market in the area.

Through the first nine months of the year, house sales are up about 18 percent, while the median sales price is down 2.2 percent, both compared with the same period in 2011, the association said.

Sales of condominiums in September were weak, down 21 percent, from the sale month a year ago, the association said. The median sale price was $154,500, down 8 percent, from $168,000 a year ago.

The picture was a bit brighter for condos when looking at the first nine months of the year. Closed sales were up 12 percent, though the median sale price fell nearly 11 percent, both compared with the same period in 2011.

Protests as Ireland's 1st abortion clinic opens

BELFAST, Northern Ireland (AP) ? The first abortion clinic on the island of Ireland opened Thursday in Belfast, sparking protests by conservatives from both the Catholic and Protestant sides of Northern Ireland.

The Marie Stopes family planning center will offer the abortion pill to women who are less than nine weeks pregnant ? but only if doctors determine they're at risk of death or long-term health damage from their pregnancy.

That's the law in both Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland, where abortion is otherwise illegal.

But more than 200 protesters opposed to abortion under any circumstances gathered outside the central Belfast clinic hours ahead of its opening Thursday, waving placards reading "Keep Ireland abortion free."

And Northern Ireland Attorney General John Larkin wrote to lawmakers, who broadly oppose abortion, offering his help if they investigate the clinic's operations. Larkin said he could order the clinic to be closed only if evidence emerged of "serious criminal conduct" there.

Protesters demanded that the clinic be shut down regardless, lest it become a beachhead for expanding abortion rights in Northern Ireland, the only corner of the United Kingdom that has not legalized abortion on demand.

"We're in 2012. Women's health is not in danger. Women are not dying because they cannot get abortions," said Bernadette Smyth, the Protestant leader of a Belfast anti-abortion group called Precious Life.

"For Marie Stopes, this is only a first step," said Liam Gibson from the Society for the Protection of Unborn Children, a predominantly Catholic pressure group.

He called on Belfast police to arrest the clinic's doctors and directors if they give women information about abortion services in neighboring Britain, where abortions have been legal since 1967. About 4,000 women from the Republic of Ireland and 1,000 from Northern Ireland travel there annually for abortions.

Officials from Marie Stopes, a British charity that already operates such clinics in more than 40 countries, said they expect to provide relatively few abortions in Northern Ireland, given the heavy legal restrictions.

But they said Belfast, and all of Ireland, needed a non-judgmental, non-threatening place where women in crisis pregnancies could go for guidance. They said their office was already receiving calls from women in the Republic of Ireland, where it's illegal to receive shipments of the abortion pill through the mail.

"Mostly what we'll be doing is offering advice. Many of the people we see we won't be able to treat, because of the legal framework," said Tracey McNeill, vice president of Marie Stopes.

McNeill said she had no problem with the protesters so long as they didn't threaten or intimidate clients. "It's important that people express their views in a democracy," she said.

Police erected crowd-control barriers outside the clinic on Great Victoria Street, one of Belfast's broadest boulevards, to prevent protesters from blocking the clinic's entrance and sidewalk. Clinic directors had tried to keep its location secret but that information was leaked last week.

The Roman Catholic Church, the largest church in both parts of Ireland, this week launched a monthlong campaign to press the Irish government to strengthen its constitutional ban on abortion. It has denounced the Belfast clinic's opening but shied away from calling for protests.

"We are in the middle of a struggle for the soul of Northern Ireland," said Bishop Donal McKeown, the senior Catholic in Belfast, who didn't attend the protest. He said Marie Stopes directors were seeking "to promote the acceptability of abortion."

Elsewhere in Northern Ireland, a group of teenagers at a Catholic high school announced they would hold daily lunchtime prayers for the clinic to be closed.

Sheila Fullerton, a teacher at St. Mary's Grammar School in the town of Magherafelt, said about 40 boys and girls aged 16 and 17 approached her asking to mount the protest. "They feel strongly this is something they must do," she said.

Irish abortion rights groups welcomed the clinic's opening but said they wouldn't mount counter demonstrations because that would only encourage potential violence and the intimidation of pregnant women outside the clinic.

The Northern Ireland Health Department says 30 to 50 women per year do receive abortions in local hospitals after doctors deem their pregnancies pose a sufficient risk to their health. It declined to elaborate.

Goretti Horgan, leader of a Belfast-based group called Alliance for Choice, said while the clinic wouldn't technically offer any increased access to abortion, it would encourage women to seek the abortion pill who previously had to seek state-funded services through their local doctor.

Horgan said general-practice doctors might be opposed to abortion themselves or fearful of being targeted by protesters or lawsuits. She said this meant women with life-threatening conditions still found themselves flying to Britain as a less difficult option.

"The main need for the clinic is for the women who are ill or very distressed and have a right to a legal abortion here. For those women, I think it's awful that they put those women on a plane, with their medical notes under their arms. It's scandalous," she said.

Like almost all Northern Ireland politicians, Health Minister Edwin Poots says he doesn't want the clinic in Belfast but it can operate as long as it observes all existing laws.

"If they break the law, they will be prosecuted," he told lawmakers.

The clinic also offers information on women's reproductive health topics such as contraceptives or sexually transmitted diseases.

The clinic's legal inability to offer any abortion option to women more than nine weeks pregnant means that those women seeking abortions because their fetus has been diagnosed with fatal abnormalities still must travel to Britain.

Ruth Bowie, spokeswoman for an Irish group called Terminations for Medical Reasons, said doctors can detect such problems only once the fetus is at least 12 weeks old.

Bowie said Northern Ireland's abortion laws mean the clinic "will be of no help to the women north and south who are facing the trauma and upset of fatal fetal abnormalities. Women and men in this situation continue to be forced to travel away from family, friends and their homes at the worst time of their lives."

CSN: Welcome to rock bottom, Yankees

October 19, 2012, 1:17 am

DETROIT -- Losing the American League Championship Series to a team which won seven fewer games than you is bad.

Being swept by that same team in the ALCS is worse. And never holding a lead, for even a fleeting moment in the entire series, is the absolute worst.

Welcome, New York Yankees, to rock bottom.

In the last two post-seasons, the Yankees have yet to win a single game past the Division Series. They were knocked off in five games by the Tigers in 2011, then got by the Baltimore Orioles in this year's ALDS only to be outclassed by Tigers Thursday, 8-1, who completed their four-game sweep.

While eliminated by the Tigers for the second straight October, the Yankees set records for offensive futility. In the four game series, they scored a grand total of six runs. They hit a collective .157 for the ALCS.

"There's a lot of a good hitters in that (visitor's clubhouse) and to be able to shut them all down is surprising,'' said Joe Girardi.?

"Collectively, we didn't get it done...We didn't just struggle. A lot of guys struggled mightily.''

For the first three games, the Yankees got strong starting pitching and it didn't save them. They went into Game 4 with a 2.25 ERA in the ALCS -- and hadn't won in a game.

Then, when CC Sabathia sputtered Thursday in Game 4, it was too late to matter. By the ninth, the Yankee lineup looked like something Joe Girardi might bring to Fort Myers for a game next March.

In truth, the Yankees' offensive struggles weren't a total shock. Scouts who watched them over the course of the season warned that the Yanks were too dependent on home runs, which, by definition, are harder to hit against quality pitching staffs in the post-season.

Sure enough, the Yankees hit five homers in nine post-season games -- three of them by Raul Ibanez. And three of the five homers they hit came with the bases empty.

"Just bad timing,'' shrugged Mark Teixeira. "Really bad timing for four games like this.''

"We didn't hit the way we were supposed to,'' said Robinson Cano in a bit of understatement. "We had our chances and didn't take advantage. We didn't do our job with men on base and they beat us.''

The Yankees problems go far beyond the temporary embarrassment of the playoff sweep. Any team, after all, can have a bad week, and it's dangerous to read too much into such a small sample size.

"We lost,'' concluded Nick Swisher. "That's it. We went out and gave it everything we had. It just wasn't good enough.''

That said, the Yankees are in trouble. Their aging roster is becoming problematic.

Take a look around their roster of position players, and while you're at it, their ledger sheets.

At first, Teixeira has seen his OPS decline in each of the last three seasons and is only halfway through his eight-year, $180 million.?

Derek Jeter will undergo surgery Saturday and it's unclear whether he'll be ready for Opening Day. He'll turn 38 next year, an age when few continue to play shortstop everyday.

Curtis Granderson is wildly inconsistent, capable of power (43 homers), but too often, failing to make contact (.232 batting average, 195 strikeouts). Swisher is a free agent and won't be back.

Behind the plate, Russell Martin is also a free agent, and because the Yankees traded one catching prospect (Jesus Montero) and have had another (Austin Romine) slowed by injuries, probably will return.

The Yankees hold a $15 million option on Cano and will exercise that. Next year, the Yankees might have a tough call on whether to extend him beyond 2012. Cano will be 30, relatively young, but his .699 career OPS in the post-season may give the Yanks some pause.

Finally, of course, there's Alex Rodriguez, who was benched for three of the nine post-season games and pinch-hit for in three others. Rodriguez looks for all the world like the most overpriced platoon player, with five years and $114 million in salary obligations remaining.

It's here where the Yankees might secretly envy the Red Sox. In unloading Carl Crawford, Adrian Gonzalez and Josh Beckett in their megadeal with the Los Angeles Dodgers, the Red Sox unloaded $259 million in payroll obligations and got the chance to start over.

For now, the Red Sox have $45.6 million in payroll committed for next season -- a figure that admittedly doesn't include several arbitration cases, nor free agents David Ortiz and Cody Ross. By contrast, the Yankees are on the hook for $119.1 million in 2013.

The disparity is best exemplified thusly: while the Red Sox are committed to just $34.4 million in 2014, two years from now, the Yankees have twice?as much committed in 2016,?four?years from now.

And remember, the Yankees have vowed to be under the Competitive Balance Tax (CBT) threshold of $186 million by 2014.

Ordinarily, a team with virtually unlimited resources and coming off a season in which they had the best record in the league is a team to be envied.

So how come it doesn't feel that way for the New York Yankees?

Hummingbirds Tracked During U.S. Southwest's "Second Spring" [Slide Show]

Monitoring hummingbird populations during the peak of fall migration in the Chiricahua Mountains helps scientists foresee how these primary pollinators of more than 150 U.S. flowering plant species respond to changes in climate

By David Despain

Paradise, Ariz.?The Chiricahua Mountains here in far southeastern Arizona boast some of the most spectacular birding in the country; at no other time is this truer than in the early fall during the peak of hummingbird migration.

The tiny travelers, which play crucial roles in pollination and ecological stability, make their way down the Rocky Mountains to the Sierra Madres. They are attracted to a major seasonal change that happens on this borderland sky island during these months. A strong influx of moisture streams northward from the Pacific Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico bringing late summer heavy rains that have turned the sea of surrounding grasslands green. In the canyons, last year?s monster flames are becoming a distant memory: shades of red, pink and yellow dot the charred landscapes, signaling the return of wildflowers during this ?second spring.?

The wildflowers offer the hummingbirds, mostly juveniles, an opportunity to indulge and fatten up on nectar before continuing on to Mexico or Central America for the winter. Birders and tourists come from around the world to observe hummingbirds here simply because of their beauty; however, few are aware of the integral function that hummingbirds serve for biodiversity in the region.

A single hummingbird may visit more than a thousand wildflowers a day. In the process, it picks up pollen grains and carries them from one plant to another, serving as the basis for cross-fertilization needed by the flowering plants to produce seed. Because hummingbirds?along with bees, butterflies and bats?act as primary pollinators for about 150 species of flowering plants in the United States (and more in Mexico and Central and South America), land managers and scientists want to keep a close eye on their numbers.

In the early morning hours of a recent fall day in Cave Creek Canyon at the Southwest Research Station, ecologist Susan Wethington led a group of citizen scientists and volunteers to monitor and record the migration. Based in Patagonia, Arizona, she is the co-founder and executive director of the Hummingbird Monitoring Network (HMN), a group devoted to maintaining hummingbird populations and their habitats.?

Group members received instruction on how to perform their roles. They set up their stations and, for the next five hours, each group member trapped and banded the birds, recorded data, and marveled at the animals in hopes of understanding a little more about the journey they?d made thus far.

Despite one's fascination with these fairy-like creatures, Wethington told the group, "There is still too little known about hummingbirds." Among the questions that need answers include: What does it take for hummingbirds to survive, reproduce and maintain thriving populations?

On this day alone, the group trapped and processed almost 100 birds?the busiest day this year?and they recorded seven species (in order of number): Black-chinned, Blue-throated, Magnificent, Rufous, Broad-tailed, Anna's and Calliope. The numbers are encouraging, Wethington says, a sign of recovery after the harsh conditions brought on by freezing temperatures, drought and wildfire of the past couple of years.

How hummingbirds will respond to climate change is a major concern, Wethington says. The Chiricahuas serve as an exceptional location for studying how well hummingbirds adapt. Here, four different ecological regions meet?the Rocky Mountains, the Sierra Mountains, and the Sonoran and Chihuahuan deserts?and serve as a biological crossroads of flora and fauna. In total, researchers have recorded 18 species in this canyon, more than in any other area north of Mexico.

The group's data from the peak of migration (for Anna's, Black-chinned, and Rufous hummingbirds) will be pooled with that of similar HMN groups working across the southeastern Arizona sky island region, California, Utah, Idaho, New Mexico, Colorado, British Columbia and Mexico City.

CIA found militant links a day after Libya attack

WASHINGTON (AP) ? The CIA station chief in Libya reported to Washington within 24 hours of last month's deadly attack on the U.S. Consulate that there was evidence it was carried out by militants, not a spontaneous mob upset about an American-made video ridiculing Islam's Prophet Muhammad, U.S. officials have told The Associated Press.

It is unclear who, if anyone, saw the cable outside the CIA at that point and how high up in the agency the information went. The Obama administration maintained publicly for a week that the attack on the diplomatic mission in Benghazi that killed U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans was a result of the mobs that staged less-deadly protests across the Muslim world around the 11th anniversary of the 9/11 terror attacks on the U.S.

Those statements have become highly charged political fodder as the presidential election approaches. A Republican-led House committee questioned State Department officials for hours about what GOP lawmakers said was lax security at the consulate, given the growth of extremist Islamic militants in North Africa.

And in their debate on Tuesday, President Barack Obama and Republican challenger Mitt Romney argued over when Obama first said it was a terror attack. In his Rose Garden address the morning after the killings, Obama said, "No acts of terror will ever shake the resolve of this great nation, alter that character or eclipse the light of the values that we stand for."

But Republicans say he was speaking generally and didn't specifically call the Benghazi attack a terror attack until weeks later, with the president and other key members of his administration referring at first to the anti-Muslim movie circulating on the Internet as a precipitating event.

Now congressional intelligence committees are demanding documents to show what the spy agencies knew and when, before, during and after the attacks.

The White House now says the attack probably was carried out by an al Qaida-linked group, with no public demonstration beforehand. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton blamed the "fog of war" for the early conflicting accounts.

The officials who told the AP about the CIA cable spoke anonymously because they were not authorized to release such information publicly.

Congressional aides say they expect to get the documents by the end of this week to build a timeline of what the intelligence community knew and compare that to what the White House was telling the public about the attack. That could give Romney ammunition to use in his foreign policy debate with Obama on Monday night.

The two U.S. officials said the CIA station chief in Libya compiled intelligence reports from eyewitnesses within 24 hours of the assault on the consulate that indicated militants launched the violence, using the pretext of demonstrations against U.S. facilities in Egypt against the film to cover their intent. The report from the station chief was written late Wednesday, Sept. 12, and reached intelligence agencies in Washington the next day, intelligence officials said.

Yet, on Saturday of that week, briefing points sent by the CIA to Congress said "demonstrations in Benghazi were spontaneously inspired by the protests at the U.S. Embassy in Cairo and evolved into a direct assault."

The briefing points, obtained by the AP, added: "There are indications that extremists participated in the violent demonstrations" but did not mention eyewitness accounts that blamed militants alone.

Such raw intelligence reports by the CIA on the ground would normally be sent first to analysts at the headquarters in Langley, Va., for vetting and comparing against other intelligence derived from eavesdropping drones and satellite images. Only then would such intelligence generally be shared with the White House and later, Congress, a process that can take hours, or days if the intelligence is coming only from one or two sources who may or may not be trusted.

U.S. intelligence officials say in this case the delay was due in part to the time it took to analyze various conflicting accounts. One official, speaking on condition of anonymity because he wasn't authorized to discuss the incident publicly, explained that "it was clear a group of people gathered that evening" in Benghazi, but that the early question was "whether extremists took over a crowd or they were the crowd."

But that explanation has been met with concern in Congress.

"The early sense from the intelligence community differs from what we are hearing now," Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., said. "It ended up being pretty far afield, so we want to figure out why ... though we don't want to deter the intelligence community from sharing their best first impressions" after such events in the future.

"The intelligence briefings we got a week to 10 days after were consistent with what the administration was saying," said Rep. William Thornberry, R-Texas, a member of the House Intelligence and Armed Services committees. Thornberry would not confirm the existence of the early CIA report but voiced skepticism over how sure intelligence officials, including CIA Director David Petraeus, seemed of their original account when they briefed lawmakers on Capitol Hill.

"How could they be so certain immediately after such events, I just don't know," he said. "That raises suspicions that there was political motivation."

National Security Council spokesman Tommy Vietor declined comment. The Office of the Director of National Intelligence did not respond to requests for comment.

Two officials who witnessed Petraeus' closed-door testimony to lawmakers in the week after the attack said that during questioning he acknowledged that there were some intelligence analysts who disagreed with the conclusion that an unruly mob angry over the video had initiated the violence. But those officials said Petraeus did not mention the CIA's early eyewitness reports. He did warn legislators that the account could change as more intelligence was uncovered, they said, speaking on condition of anonymity because the hearing was closed.

Beyond the question of what was known immediately after the attack, it's also proving difficult to pinpoint those who set the fire that apparently killed Stevens and his communications aide or launched the mortars that killed two ex-Navy SEALs who were working as contract security guards at a fallback location. That delay is prompting lawmakers to question whether the intelligence community has the resources it needs to investigate this attack in particular or to wage the larger fight against al-Qaida in Libya or across Africa.

Intelligence officials say the leading suspected culprit is a local Benghazi militia, Ansar al-Shariah. The group denies responsibility for the attack but is known to have ties to a leading African terror group, al-Qaida in the Islamic Maghreb. Some of its leaders and fighters were spotted by Libyan locals at the consulate during the violence, and intelligence intercepts show the militants were in contact with AQIM militants before and after the attack, one U.S. intelligence official said.

But U.S. intelligence has not been able to match those reported sightings with the faces of attackers caught on security camera recordings during the attack since many U.S. intelligence agents were pulled out of Benghazi in the aftermath of the violence, the two U.S. intelligence officials said.

Nor have they found proof to back up their suspicion that the attack was preplanned, as indicated by the military-style tactics the attackers used, setting up a perimeter of roadblocks around the consulate and the backup compounds, then attacking the main entrance to distract, while sending a larger force to assault the rear.

Clear-cut answers may prove elusive because such an attack is not hard to bring about relatively swiftly with little preplanning or coordination in a post-revolutionary country awash with weapons, where the government is so new it still relies on armed militants to keep the peace. Plus, the location of U.S. diplomat enclaves is an open secret for the locals.
