Privacy vs. police technology: Bill would ban certain searches without probable causeBy GARRY RAYNO
State House Bureau
January 29. 2013 10:45PM
CONCORD - If you leave your fingerprints or DNA on a glass, that doesn't mean law enforcement or an insurance company can take that glass and use the information from it without a court warrant, according to legislation proposed this session.
One of the House's most vocal privacy advocates, Rep. Neal Kurk, R-Weare, said he believes state residents do not expect law enforcement, insurance companies or "data miners" to have access to their personally identifiable information when they throw something out in their trash or leave a drinking glass with their saliva on it at a restaurant.
People do not give up their rights to their personally identifiable information because they leave a beer glass in a bar, he said.
House Bill 311 would protect people's identifiable information such as DNA, retinal scans, fingerprints, personal biometrics, credit cards, phone numbers and work histories from use without a court issued warrant supported by probable cause.
Under the bill, it would be a class B misdemeanor with a $1,000 fine to knowingly obtain a person's identifying information, and the second offense would be a class B felony with a $2,000 fine.
Law enforcement opposed the bill, saying it would be impossible to process a crime scene or retrieve information that is often critical to solving crimes - including murder - under the proposed law.
Department of Safety attorney Chris Casko said the penalty would seriously impede law enforcement officers from doing their jobs.
An officer would have to decide whether to seize critical information knowing he could be prosecuted criminally and sued in a civil proceeding, Casko told the House Judiciary Committee at a public hearing on the bill Tuesday.
Assistant Attorney General Elizabeth Woodcock said law enforcement would not be able to use much of the information gathered at a crime scene because they could not show probable cause for a court warrant under the bill.
"When police process a crime scene they process all manner of information to track it down," Woodcock said.
She said a cigarette butt thrown on the ground by a man after he was interviewed by police linked him to the crime and led to his conviction in the murder of a young girl. "There is no way police could have gotten a search warrant," Woodcock said.
The proper place to decide such privacy issues is before the courts, she noted, not in a law that would limit law enforcement.
Kurk acknowledged his bill would make law enforcement's job harder, but said they would have to obtain information in other ways or use other methods.
He contends his bill is about the balance between liberty and public safety.
A 2003 state Supreme Court opinion in John Goss versus the State of New Hampshire said police should not have been able to obtain a search warrant and subsequent conviction for marijuana possession by using evidence obtained from his garbage.
The court said Goss had a reasonable expectation of privacy that his garbage would not be disturbed when he left it at the curb.
Woodcock and several committee members noted Kurk's bill goes far beyond the court's opinion in the Goss case. Kurk agreed and acknowledged no other state has a similar law.
"New Hampshire is first in other areas," Kurk said. "This would a wonderful place to begin."
He said his bill expands a person's expectation of privacy to all personally identifiable information the person may or may not have abandoned as a public policy determined by lawmakers.
He noted the Legislature is better equipped to set and change policy as technology and other aspects of life change.
The committee did not make an immediate recommendation on the bill.

Raymond James (RJF) released the details of its new payout grid for employee advisors on Thursday, which executives and advisors say is more "product neutral" and "simpler" than the grid in place since 2010. It also includes more payout levels.
"The new grid creates many more production levels for payouts … so we have created many more opportunities for advisors to be incentivized and rewarded for growth," said Tash Elwyn (left), head of Private Client operations for Raymond James & Associates, in an interview.
"Also, we have eliminated discount[ing] penalties, for instance, which reinforces our cultural belief that our representatives are professionals. We should entrust them to price their products appropriately and not penalize them for discounting," Elwyn explained.
The payout schedule applies only to the roughly 2,200 financial advisors affiliated with Raymond James & Associates and who have at least seven years of work experience in the industry. It becomes effective at the start of the company's new fiscal year in October.
The new grid includes 15 payout levels, starting with compensation of 20% for those advisors with $200,000 in trailing-12-month fees and commissions. It tops out at payouts of 50% for those with between $5 million and $100 million in trailing-12-month production.
Regardless of an advisor's production level, payouts for all collar transactions are 50%, and payouts for investment-banking referrals are 70%.
Trades with a gross commission of $100 or more receive full payout, while those between the client minimum and $100 receive are given a 25% payout.
(The minimum is currently $75 for equities and fixed income products and $60 for options).
Advisor Input
Raymond James advisors were involved in redoing the grid both informally and formally, Elwyn says, over the past 18 months. "We wanted their feedback and input as to how best to create this, which helped make this a simpler, more transparent and a better cash grid," he explained.
The grid is "cost neutral" to the company and overall should be "compensation neutral" in the aggregate to advisors, he adds. Plus, it is more competitive at higher production levels than the old plan.
Advisors seem to welcome the changes.
"In my case, my payment should go up slighly going forward," said Todd Knickerbocker of RJ&A in Northville, Mich., who has been with the firm for five years and is a member of the firm's Chairman's Council.
As for it being "product neutral," "This is ablsolutely a big deal," the advisor explained. "That is what counts about the new grid—its fairness to all involved."

Oriental and area rugs are an exceptional addition when featured in any home. Similar to fine paintings or wall décor, they have a great impact on the complete and overall character of a well-decorated space in the house. Due to their position, rugs usually receive a huge amount of traffic which will leave them dirty after extended periods of time. Just like carpets, rugs can act as air filters in a home helping to trap dirt, bacteria, and allergens, and preventing them from circulating to other areas of the house. For rugs to be able to perform these functions properly, they need to get maintained and kept clean just like any other air filter found in the house. This is why rug cleaning in Metropolis is of great importance in any home. Rug cleaning professionals will provide high-quality cleaning services and will attend to every detail on the rug with the aim of restoring it to its original condition while getting rid of allergens and dirt. Rug cleaning experts can carry out these services on various types of rugs be it area rugs or some of the most expensive and delicate rugs such as the Persian and Oriental rugs.
Every good thing comes at a cost and rug cleaning is no exception to this rule. When looking to find a rug cleaning service, there are many factors that you should consider regarding the cost of the service which can either reduce or increase the overall service charges. The type of rug that needs cleaning is a major cost determinant. Oriental rugs are usually more expensive to clean compared to area rug cleaning in Metropolis. On average, you can spend about $3 to $4 per square foot to clean various wool rugs and $1 to $2.50 per foot for synthetic rugs. Since most of the cleaning services are charged per square foot, it's important to note that the bigger your rug is, the more you'll have to incur in costs.
Usually, rugs are not permanently fixed on the floor and they can be easily removed to get cleaned. Rug cleaners in Metropolis can offer on-site or off-site cleaning. Both these offerings have their pros and cons. Taking the rug to them for cleaning will save you on the transportation costs as they may charge slightly higher for transportation if they were to clean it from the house. However, some companies don't include transportation expenses, especially if your house is near their workshop. In such cases, it's better to let them do the rug cleaning from your house.
For reference it may be helpful to compare the costs from surrounding towns as well:
In preparation for an antique rug cleaning in Metropolis, you should remove any big clutter such as toys and shoes from the rug. Next, you should remove any light furniture from the rug as most rugs are placed underneath coffee tables and small furniture. You should also take note of stained areas that you would want the cleaning to focus on and make any necessary preparation for your kids and pets so they are not around the cleaning area. Finally, you should also clear the path that the cleaners will use to get into the house with their equipment.
Rugs are not that far off from carpets in terms of features. You will find that many Metropolis rug cleaning professionals also provide carpet cleaning services. They can clean all sorts of carpets be it stains or normal dirt and so on.
Most of the cleaning service providers will use non-toxic agents to perform the rug cleaning in Metropolis which won't cause any harm to your pets, kids or you. However, it's still advised that your family stays away from where the cleaning is taking place.

With that, Basehor-Linwood MIddle School eighth-grader Calder Hollond won the 53rd annual Leavenworth County Spelling Bee. But her victory only came after about 20 rounds of back-and-forth spelling in the final round — against her younger brother, Basehor-Linwood Middle School sixth-grader Sterling.
From "benevolent" to "transatlantic" and "burgundy" to "volatile" they spelled one word after the other, until Sterling eventually tripped up on "liturgical." A total of 36 spellers representing all but two schools in the county took part in the bee, open to fifth-through eighth-grade students and sponsored by Leavenworth Area Retired School Personnel Association. Organizers say the bee this year moved quicker than in years past, with 19 students eliminated after the first round. Nick French of Tonganoxie Middle School took third place in the county bee this year.
By coming in first and second, the Hollond siblings will both move on to the Sunflower Spelling Bee, scheduled for March 2 at Fort Hays State University. The winner of that bee is eligible to compete in the Scripps National Spelling Bee in late May in Washington, D.C.
Calder said far from a sibling rivalry, that the final contest came down to the two of them helped her relax.
"Because when you're up against someone you don't know, it's like they're your enemy," she said.
Both of the siblings said they enjoyed spelling. Their mother, Anne, said she always tried to make it a fun subject while teaching.
"We used to home-school them, and that was a big focus for us," she said.
That included a "spelling club" as part of the home-schooling, which expanded to a larger activity once the two started attending Basehor-Linwood Middle School. Their father, David, said that experience — with friendly spelling bees as part of the club — seemed to help them prepare for bigger competition.
"There's really two parts to it," he said. "There's knowing how to spell a
word and there's being able to spell the word under pressure."
Anne said both Calder and Sterling were avid readers and study Greek and Latin, which helped too. But both siblings said they also studied after winning their school-level bees, sometimes together.
Despite that, they have somewhat different styles — Calder remained still during her turn at the microphone, while Sterling spelled every word in the air, his finger as the pen. He said it's not something he picked up on purpose.
"I'm not really sure," where it came from, he said, "but even at the school, you kind of spell on your desk or in the air, so I just used that."
For the next level, they'll continue studying. Sterling said he's going to hit the dictionary.
"I'm going to study more with him," Calder said.
It's the second time she's been to the state bee, having also taken the top honors in 2011. Speaking from experience, Calder said the state bee requires a lot more preparation, with a more extensive word list and stiffer competition. But she said she's looking forward to it.
"I was hoping to win," she said of the county bee. "I've been before and this is my last chance."

Capital Press
ANDERSON, Calif. — A quartet of college students from Quincy, Calif., have an idea for how to create jobs by using the wood waste at lumber mills.
They want to turn the wood into chopsticks to sell to China, where they say a shortage exist.
"One-third of the world uses chopsticks as utensils," said Kambel Kenaston, 20, as he and his fellow Feather River College students prepared to make a presentation at the Sierra Cascade Logging conference here.
"We're here to get feedback from people" in the industry, he said. "We think adding in a chopstick factory at our mill would add 100 jobs, and we only have a population of 5,000 people."
The young entrepreneurs were set to have a meeting this week with officials from Sierra Pacific Industries, which operates the lumber mill in Quincy.
Their presentation Feb. 7 was a highlight of the three-day logging conference and forest products expo at the Shasta District Fairgrounds, which included speakers and workshops as well as logging exhibitions, log loading and truck driving skills competitions and a "backhoe rodeo."
The students' appearance was part of the conference's overall emphasis on education, as about 800 elementary school students toured the grounds on Feb. 6, FFA members tested their knowledge of forestry and other college students held logging sports competitions.
The Feather River students got the idea of producing chopsticks while on a plane ride, as 21-year-old Bradley Marquette read a magazine article about a Georgia chopsticks factory that had closed because it couldn't meet its rapidly growing contracts.
The Chinese go through more than 200 billion pairs of chopsticks a year, the students said, and there isn't enough wood in their depleted forests to keep up with demand. A high Russian tax deters Chinese loggers from harvesting wood from their northern neighbor, said Andrew Reed, 20, another of the students.
"Our idea is we want to take local lumber – unused wood – and turn it into chopsticks for China," Reed said. "We have all this lumber right now, right at our feet."
Roommates Reed, Marquette, Kenaston and 20-year-old Mat Molina have experience in business together. They already own a cafe in Quincy, which they plan to turn into a sports bar when they're all old enough to sell beer, Kenaston said.
The students are doing the chopsticks project as part of an entrepreneurship class at Feather River. At the conference, they were appearing in a workshop on global marketing in the timber industry.
"Right now we're in the research and development phase," Reed said. "We're here today to present an idea and learn."

How lawmakers' budget choices could affect you
By GARRY RAYNO
State House Bureau
- College students, smokers, motorists, the mentally and terminally ill, the developmentally disabled, state employees and the parents of at-risk children could feel the most direct effect from the $10.7 billion two-year budget plan and laws the House and Senate will vote on this Wednesday.Here is a brief rundown of what the Legislature has come up with this session:
-- Lawmakers will be asked to establish a commission to study Medicaid expansion. Proponents say expansion would add 58,000 people to the Medicaid rolls and provide about $2.5 billion in federal money to pay health care providers. Senate President Peter Bragdon, R-Milford, and others want to hear recommendations from the commission before the state makes a decision. The deadline for those recommendations would be Oct. 15.
-- Budget negotiators approved $100 million more in state aid intended to prevent tuition increases in the New Hampshire Community College System and the University System of New Hampshire.
-- A conference committee decided students can continue to use their college IDs to satisfy voter identification requirements. Without the change, college IDs and any others that were not government-issued could no longer be used to meet the photo identification requirement, meaning those people would have to sign a voter affidavit and have their photo taken.
City and town election officials fear that would create long lines at the polls during elections.
-- The state is being sued over its once model mental health system. The new budget provides $28 million to upgrade the system, which officials say will mean fewer mentally ill languishing in emergency rooms waiting for a bed to open at New Hampshire Hospital.
Also the developmentally disable who turn 22 years old and are no longer the responsibility of school districts would be able to access services they now wait for.
-- Lawmakers are expected to approve a medical marijuana program, which would make New Hampshire the last state in New England to adopt a program intended for those who do not respond to traditional medicines.
-- Charter school proposals awaiting State Board of Education approval will get the state financing they will need to open. The budget contains $3.4 million over the next two years for four new charter schools and ends a moratorium on new charter schools. . Parents of at-risk children who are not a threat to themselves or others will again be able to access services with the reinstatement of the Children in Need of Services program. Two years ago, the program was scaled back to serve only those who are a threat to themselves or others.
Lawmakers have changed the program so now parents can voluntarily participate, and children are required to be placed in the least restrictive setting, which will reduce the number of children at the Sununu Youth Services Center in Manchester.
-- State employees will receive their first raise in five years under new collective bargaining agreements, but will have to pay health care deductibles for the first time. About 200 to 300 employees may be laid off.
-- Smokers should not see the price of cigarettes increase dramatically because lawmakers defeated an attempt to increase the tax by 20 cents a pack. The tobacco tax will increase 10 cents automatically in August to return to the pre-fiscal 2012 level, which continues to be the lowest in New England.
-- Lawmakers also refused to increase the gas tax by 12 cents over the next three years, although the tax has not been increased since 1991. The money was intended to help finish the Interstate-93 widening project from Manchester to Salem and provide more money for the state and municipalities to fix their crumbling transportation infrastructure.
-- Ten new state troopers will be added to the force.

There are few business transactions with more importance than those related
to the sale and purchase of real estate. The purchase of a home is usually the
largest, single expenditure most families will ever make. To these families, we
at Old Republic Title play a critical role in the real estate transaction.
In most cases, a property owner will approach a real estate agent and
offer a property for sale. The agent will then advertise the property
and conduct a search for potential buyers. Generally, a number of
potential buyers will respond to the agent's listing, depending upon
real estate market conditions and general economic conditions at the
time. The agent, working with the client, then determines which of the
potential buyers is financially qualified to enter into sale price
negotiations with the property owner.
Once a qualified buyer is found and a sale of property is arranged for
and completed, the agent is compensated in the form of a commission.
This commission is normally paid by the property seller and is based on
a percentage of the final sale price of the property. The actual dollar
amount of the commission, as well as the general terms of the agent's
services, are specified in a listing contract or
listing agreement.
Once the buyer and seller have agreed on a purchase price, they enter
into a Purchase Agreement or Contract. The contract sets out the terms
of the agreement such as price, closing date, contingencies, etc. It is
recommended that the parties have the advice of their lawyers before
signing the Contract, since once it is executed it defines the terms of
the sale.
The parties' attorneys will continue to provide legal advice to their
respective clients until the real estate transaction is completed.
Most people do not have enough cash to purchase property on an all-cash
basis and must therefore look toward one of the many sources of
financing available today. The basic arrangement is that someone will
lend the buyer enough money to purchase the property under certain
conditions. The conditions require the purchaser to repay the monies
according to a known repayment schedule, and pledge the property as
security for the debt.
When you borrow money, the lender is in fact making an investment in
which the lender will earn interest. Your payments will usually be made
on a monthly basis and are calculated so that the entire amount of
principal and interest due is repaid in a fixed number of years. If the
entire debt will not be paid in this time (i.e., fully "amortized") the
total amount left to be paid is called a "balloon" payment.
The lender first processes and underwrites the buyer's application.
This involves ordering credit reports, appraisals, verifications of
salary, verification of debts, and possible investor and private
mortgage insurance company approval. When loan approval appears likely,
title insurance
is ordered, often by the real estate agent.

Huskers Start Week Two of Spring Practice
Lincoln-The Nebraska football team continued its 2013 spring practice season Monday afternoon, as the Huskers practiced in the Hawks Championship Center for just over two hours in full pads.
After practice, defensive coordinator John Papuchis spoke with the media, nothing the team rebounded well after a disappointing practice Saturday morning.
"They came back with a great attitude. The reality is that we are going to have some ups and downs." Papuchis said. "We want to limit the downs obviously, but for a variety of reasons there were situations in practice Saturday where there were nine freshmen or sophomores running with the ones."
Even though the NU defense lost a lot of senior leadership after last season, Papuchis believes that the young group of Huskers has a lot of upside.
"I think they all are talented players, athletically this is the fastest group since we have been here." Papuchis said, "There is some inexperience, but we knew that coming into it. It doesn't mean we are going to change. We are going to change our standard in terms of how we expect to practice and how we expect to execute. Saturday was not a good day for us, but today was a much better day, to me that's a good sign."
Senior defensive back Ciante Evans showed why he is expected to be one of the leaders after practice Saturday, as Evans said he met with some of the young Husker defenders.
"I told them to just have fun, there is a lot of young guys so they kind of think of it as a job," Evans said, "I was just telling them guys, when you just be confident and know what you are supposed to do, the game is going to come naturally."
The Huskers will be back on the practice field on Wednesday and Friday this week before taking a week off for spring break. Continue to check back to Huskers.com throughout the spring for all your spring football updates.
*Head Coach Bo Pelini noted that junior running back Ameer Abdullah "tweaked" his knee and will be out for a couple weeks. Pelini said he would determine at a later time if Abdullah will return this spring. Also sophomore offensive lineman Ryne Reeves will miss the remainder of spring practice due to an ankle injury.

As a scientist in this month's action remake RoboCop, Mexican and Puerto Rican actress Aimee Garcia continues to promote change in Tinseltown by portraying Latinas in a more positive light. She tells us her story:
"When I was in my early 20s, I was having lunch with a friend and, as I was leaving, five teen girls came up to me, totally giddy, and said, "You're the girl from George Lopez! We love you! Veronica is such a blast. We love that she's a millionaire but she didn't get her inheritance." At that moment, I thought, 'Wow, I don't just make decisions for myself and my career; I make decisions for my community. What I do affects people whom I may never meet.' I also thought, 'Okay, I'm a role model and I can either embrace it or not. And I accepted that responsibility. Why not pick roles that portray Latinas in a positive light?
On the 2009 TV series Trauma, I played Marisa Benez, an EMT helicopter pilot. It was an honor to represent a woman in a guy's world and, moreover, to represent military personnel, someone who had been to war and stood on the front lines. On Dexter, Jamie Batista was Dexter's nanny but she was also a graduate student specializing in child psychology, and that was one of the first things that drew me to her character. Whenever there was a scene of her on the phone with Dexter, I made sure there were textbooks around and that she was studying. And in RoboCop, I play Kim, a scientist and MIT graduate who is schooled in biology, chemistry, robotics and computer programming. She helps bring RoboCop to life.
In the original RoboCop script, my character was Korean. I decided to audition for it anyway. I thought, 'Why can't a scientist and MIT graduate be Latina?' I have three degrees. I just felt like I get this person. I won the role—and they changed her ethnicity to Latina. To me, that's the way that you win the battle. You just go in and you focus and you keep your head down and do good work. The movie opens on Valentine's Day weekend, so hopefully people will go on dates and the girls will be like, If this girl can be a scientist, so can I.
Latinas are smart, funny, passionate and energetic. We have this voracious appetite for life and I, for one, am happy to portray that on the big and small screens. But my inspirations come from real life. My goal is to show everyone the rich potential our community has."
As told to Celia San Miguel.

Semper Fi Movie Poster
Welcome to The Few, The Proud, The Forgotten. The purpose of this site is to help provide information about the toxic water contamination aboard U.S. Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune. Please feel free to register, look around our site and ask questions. We invite you to visit our Discussion page. We have also recently completed a referenced time line of events for the first half of the toxic water contamination aboard Camp Lejeune. Please review this important document and compare it to prior "official" Marine Corps versions found on the page.
The Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) is currently studying the effects of toxic exposure upon former residents of Camp Lejeune. Three separate water distribution systems aboard Camp Lejeune were found to be contaminated, the Hadnot Point, Tarawa Terrace and Holcomb Blvd water distribution systems. ATSDR has determined the systems was contaminated from January 1953 until 1 March 1987. ATSDR water modeling for these water distribution systems is complete.
Historically, Midway Park, Berkeley Manor, and Paradise Point housing areas received their finished tap water from the Hadnot Point water system prior to 1972. After that date, these areas received their water from the Holcomb Boulevard water distribution system. Hospital Point and Hadnot Point (Main side) to include French creek received their finished water from the Hadnot Point water distribution system up until the contaminated wells were taken offline, contaminated water for these areas ceased in February of 1985. However, beginning 27 January 1985 through 4 February 1985, the Holcomb Boulevard water treatment plant was taken off line due to a generator fuel spill in the water system. Water was rerouted from the Hadnot Point water distribution system in order to supply water to Midway Park, Berkeley Manor, Paradise Point, and Watkins Village. The water furnished to these areas during the 9 day period was highly contaminated with VOCs.
The water provided by the Tarawa Terrace and Hadnot Point distribution systems was highly contaminated with various chemicals, including the VOCs (volatile organic compounds) known as PCE (Tetrachloroethylene aka Perchloroethylene), TCE (Trichloroethylene), DCE (Dichloroethylene), Vinyl Chloride and BTEX (Benzene, Toluene, Ethylbenzene, and Xylene).These chemicals are either known or suspected human carcinogens. Many Marines, Sailors, their families and loyal civilian employees have been affected by the contamination in various ways including, but not limited to: liver cancer, kidney cancer, breast cancer, bladder cancer, ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, cervical cancer, lung cancer, leukemia, non Hodgkins lymphoma, liver disease, miscarriages, birth defects (cleft palate, heart defects, Choanal atresia, neural tube defects, low birth weight, and small for gestational age),etc. Unfortunately, many of these families still have not been notified by the USMC of the danger from their exposure. In 1987 Camp Lejeune was recommended for listing as a Superfund site on the National Priorities List (NPL) by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Camp Lejeune was officially listed as a Superfund site in 1989.

Quick Despatch
Unless otherwise stated, orders are typically despatched within one business day. If an order is made after hours or on non-business days it is deemed to be made on the next business day - so, for example, an order made on the weekend will be queued for despatch on the Monday, and is typically despatched that day or the following business day. Items that are ordered before 12noon (10am for New Zealand) on a business day, are usually despatched that same day.
Delivery Timeframes
Delivery timeframes are dependent on your location, which distribution centre we are sending from, the size and number of parcels, and the schedules of the carrier. Australia Post and Toll Ipec are our preferred carriers, although sometimes other carriers are utilised. In most cases the average delivery times we observe are:
|VIC Metro
|1 to 3 business days
|VIC Regional
|2 to 4 business days
|NSW Metro
|2 to 4 business days
|NSW Regional
|4 to 6 business days
|QLD Metro
|3 to 5 business days
|QLD Regional
|4 to 9 business days
|TAS, SA, WA and NT
|3 to 9 business days
These are average delivery times and we often observe shorter and longer timeframes. Renovator Store cannot control delivery timeframes and processes, and your first point of communication on a delivery is the carrier.
To see more detailed estimated delivery timeframes visit our Estimated Shipping Times page.
Your order might arrive in separate deliveries
An order might come in multiple parcels. Sometimes we might send your order in more than one package or from different distribution centres, and they may arrive at different times.
How can I track my order delivery?
In most cases you will be sent instructions by email on how to track your delivery once your order has been completed. In some cases tracking information is not available. If you are concerned about the progress of your delivery the fastest way to get information is to contact the carrier and quote the tracking number. We can only see the same tracking information available to you.
What if I am not at home to accept delivery?
Australia Post and Toll typically require a signature upon delivery and our nominated couriers typically deliver only during business hours. So it is best to provide a shipping address that will be attended during business hours. If someone is not available to accept the goods the standard practice is to leave a card informing you how to collect at your local Post Office or for re-delivery.
You can put a short note on your order on the order checkout screen to provide delivery instructions, however Renovator Store cannot guarantee the carrier will observe these requests.
We can deliver to an Australia Post Parcel Locker
For a single item purchase you can easily arrange for delivery to an Australia Post parcel locker. There are 200 locations across Australia (also at 7-Eleven Stores and BP Service Stations) that are accessible 24/7 and free to arrange. They will email and SMS you when its ready to collect!

Copper and Cast Iron
A version of this article appears in the May/June 2007 issue of Home Energy Magazine.
May 06, 2007
Q I live in a 1920s Wardman row house in Washington, D.C. The house has a cast-iron radiator heating system. I hired a local contractor to do some bathroom renovations. It was necessary to remove a large cast-iron radiator from the bathroom to make room for the remodel. The contractor hired a plumber who installed a copper, baseboard-style radiator. It looked great! But the problem is that it only ekes out a minimal amount of heat. All of the other cast-iron radiators in the house sizzle with heat, and this copper baseboard heater is tepid at best. I called the plumber to come out to address the problem. He re-bled the system and said that it was fixed and working correctly. However, we noticed no appreciable change whatsoever. What can be done to resolve our problem? It's December, and we need heat in the bathroom! Tempted to Stay in BedWashington, D.C.

A traffic light and turn lanes could be installed on U.S. Highway 43 at Tierce Patton Road in the northern part of Tuscaloosa County in an effort to cut down on accidents at the intersection.
A traffic light and turn lanes could be installed on U.S. Highway 43 at Tierce Patton Road in the northern part of Tuscaloosa County in an effort to cut down on accidents at the intersection.
In recent years, multiple accidents — including at least two fatalities — have occurred at the site. Northport Police Officer Jimmy Jason Guin died Dec. 7, 2012, in a two-vehicle crash near the intersection. In 2008, 16-year-old Tuscaloosa County High School student Michael De La Garza was killed at the intersection.
"We've had a number of accidents and fatalities at that intersection, and the traffic volume warrants having a signal there," said County Commissioner Stan Acker, who represents the area.
There are several subdivisions in the area near Lake Tuscaloosa and the population in the area has been increasing in recent years, Acker said, adding that many motorists use Tierce Patton Road to travel between U.S. 43 and Alabama Highway 69.
"It's hard for people to get out onto 43, and hopefully with a signal and turn lanes it will make the intersection better and make it safer," he said.
The County Commission will consider spending $40,000 for the traffic signal during its bi-monthly meeting today. The proposed traffic light is a state project because U.S. 43 is a state-maintained road, said County Engineer Bobby Hagler. If the commission approves the project, the county will pay half of the cost.
"If the commission agrees to it, the county will pay for the materials and the state will do the work," Hagler said.
Safety has long been a concern at the intersection. In 2009, then-County Commissioner Don Wallace asked ALDOT for a future safety plan for that intersection and the intersection of U.S. 43 with County Road 38. ALDOT eventually did a study for the former and decided a signal was needed because of the traffic count, Hagler said.
"I don't like to stop at red lights, but if it saves lives, it's what we need to do," Acker said.
The County Commission will meet at 4 p.m. at the Tuscaloosa County Courthouse.
If approved by the county, the traffic signal could be installed in late May or early June, said Dee Rowe, 5th Division Engineer for the Alabama Department of Transportation.
In other business, the commission is expected to approve the construction of a road to the new Brookwood High School. Although the county is already constructing a road, the commission must approve it formally, said Commissioner Jerry Tingle. Commissioner Reginald Murray also is expected to propose that the county help with the construction of tennis courts at Sipsey Valley High School.
