The Challenge
The San Diego International Airport needed to conduct a Residential Sound Attenuation Program acoustical study. The area studied included homes that are potential contributors to the local historic district. It was critical to maintain these homes' historic appearance while achieving FAA sound insulation guidelines.
The Strategy
HMMH has been involved with the study since 1999. As part of the study, we performed acoustical testing, design and analysis of more than 60 homes. The analysis included factoring in the special mitigation treatment options of the historic homes, such as such as the use of wooden, acoustical windows and doors rather than standard replacement fixtures. This project also has a residential pilot study and full-program implementation of over 600 homes. The testing phases of this project are expected to continue through 2012.
The Solution
Sound insulation analysis by HMMH led to effective treatments for these homes to meet both the unique design specifications and optimal sound mitigation options.

Olsen describes a man lost in the desert: ''He has been out of food and water for days. His lips are swollen, his tongue is swollen, he's all beat up and bloody. Some of his bones are almost peeking through. He has been scraped and beat up by the cactus, sand and sun. He's blistered. As he's crawling over this little hill he comes across this little plant and props himself up on one bloody elbow, looks down at this plant and says, 'You know, if things keep going like this I might get discouraged!'''

6 Newsletter FISI Impressions Carolyn Emigh Fulbright Teaching Assistant, English, Georgetown University, Washington DC, USA First English Language School, Sofia, Bulgaria What is FISI? Recently, I found myself trying to explain what FISI is to my friends and family and I kept coming up short. When I found out that I d won a Fulbright and that Fulbrighters could participate in the two week FISI program, I was ecstatic. I knew a lot about the Fulbright but nearly nothing about FISI. So, I had no idea what to expect and this made it that much harder for me to explain to others where I was going Tryavna and what I was going to do there. I arrived in Sofia a couple of days before FISI and I had no definite plans. My landlord, who speaks almost no English, and his wife met me at the airport and took me to my apartment. After a quick run through on the industrial coffee machine, the air conditioner, the hot water heater (which I have a love-hate relationship with) and the washing machine all in Bulgarian and a tour of my new neighborhood where the magazines where I could buy food were all pointed out, I thought to myself: wow, what is it that I am doing here? The following day my landlord came back, this time to play tour guide and we walked all over the city ending at Alexandar Nevski Cathedral and that Saturday I was invited to their home for lunch. Lunch lasted more than six hours and at the end it was decided by my landlord and his son that I would not take the city bus to the Pliska Hotel where I was supposed to meet the bus to FISI. Rather, my landlord would pick me up and take me to the meeting place. He and his wife came in their little, ancient car to pick me up me: an American that they had met only days before to take me to a hotel to meet a bus to begin my adventure. Mind you, I hadn t paid my rent, made a deposit on the apartment or anything and my landlord was chauffeuring me around the city. Once at Pliska Hotel, he wouldn t leave me until he had a long talk with one of the coordinators in Bulgarian. Apparently he was satisfied with the answers because he kissed me on both cheeks and left me there. And I was left with the strange sense that I was being dropped off by a parent for summer camp for the first time. It turns out that this sense that I was going to summer camp wasn t too far off the mark but this time instead of singing songs, going hiking or doing crafts with bits of yarn, old magazines, glue and macaroni, we were taking classes, discussing politics, creating a performance art piece and exploring old Bulgarian towns loaded with history. The program provided an excellent introduction to Bulgarian history, culture and politics for the Fulbrighters in attendance and gave me a sense of the complexity of life in the Balkans both in the past as well as today. I knew that Bulgaria was a much, much older country that the United States but sitting in class one day I was struck by this comparison: President Jefferson acquired the Louisiana Purchase in Lewis and Clark made it to the Pacific coast and spent the winter of there. The state I grew up in Washington State became a territory 50 years later in Not long after this, in 1889 Washington became the 42nd state in the Union and today the state is 119 years old. However, by the time Washington became a state, Bulgaria had already been under Ottoman rule for the previous five centuries, had fought a number of times unsuccessfully for independence which they eventually received This kind of history makes a person think about how long five centuries of foreign rule actually is. It makes you realize how old the country actually is and it made me wonder how does a place keep a common language, culture, and identity through something like this? It s incredible really. This is not to say that Bulgarian culture and identity hasn t changed, grown or evolved but as an outsider I can t help but wonder what is it about this place, these people, the culture, the language and the religion that took root so deeply to guide this place through Ottoman rule, the Balkan Wars, two World Wars and later nearly 50 years of communist rule? This question is clearly absurd for me to try to answer given the fact that experts in the field can t seem to. So I am left to think about this: how is it then that everyone can be so nice to me when things have seemingly gone so wrong for so long? I think that FISI helps to answer this question. The political, economic and cultural abstractions of countries in and around Eastern Europe become personal and nuanced when you have breakfast with young men and women from Turkey, Albania and Lebanon or when you sit in class with Romanians, Italians and Bulgarians. These students know their extensive histories. They are attuned to similarities and to difference and are keen to talk about this. What stood out to me was the fact that these young women and men don t mince words they say what they mean and do so backing this up with fact and lot of heart. It 06 N55, October-December 2008
7 Newsletter produces a kind of enthusiasm and intensity that carries one from breakfast to the classroom to the pool and later to a club only to repeat the whole thing the next day. So how is that all of these men and women can be so nice to me, when they hardly know me? Well, it s not because I can keep up with the partying that my Balkan friends engage in or even because I am full of witty clips and retorts. I think rather in a place like this where the country has been acted upon by outside forces for so long that individual connections matter much more. No one seems to be asking the questions what can my country do for me nor what can I do for my country rather it is about the personal the give and take of individual relationships that seem to drive this place. It is this interest in personal relationships that facilitated midmorning coffees or late night beers and in the resulting conversations you get a sense that we re all looking for the same kinds of things relationships that affirm who we are, friends that laugh at our jokes (often the same joke over and over), jobs that we find fulfilling and the ability to live at home and not worry about our safety and security. However what makes FISI the most difficult to explain, to define or to name is the fact that ultimately the experience is about more than its individual parts. Yes, it s about class, it s about the social, it s about sleepless nights, it s about meeting new people but it s about what happens when 40 people from all over the world find themselves in a town like Tryavna and the positive energy, enthusiasm and hope that an event like this helps to foster among participants. I think that when two weeks turns out to be enough time for us to create new and I hope lasting friendships friendships which bridge fairly serious difference, the obvious next questions is what else is possible? Helen Keezer Fulbright Exchange Teacher, English, Century High School, Pocatello, ID, USA Bertolt Brecht Foreign Language School, Pazardzhik, Bulgaria The Magic of FISI Before coming to the "beauty spot of the world," Bulgaria, I had read of her mystical powers and healing nature. I admit to some skeptism about the authenticity of these reports. Perhaps, as an American I was just too jaded to believe in magic. After only one week in Bulgaria, I am no longer skeptical. I just returned from a mystical week in the beautiful village of Tryavna in central Bulgaria as part of the Fulbright International Summer Institute (FISI). The magic I experienced involved no slight of hand or rabbits being pulled from a hat, it was the pure magic of young scholars from Albania, Azerbaijan, Canada, China, Croatia, Czech Republic, Bulgaria, Italy, Lebanon, Macedonia, Romania, Russia, Ukraine, and the United States meeting together to further the Fulbright goal of promoting global peace and understanding through academic exchange. Though FISI is a two week program, I was only able to join the group for the second week. By the time I met the vibrant, gifted young scholars, they had already coalesced into such an amalgam, that I could never have guessed they came from such diverse backgrounds or that some of them came from countries who suffered years of animosity towards each other. For these two weeks in Tryavna were not about dwelling in the past but rather moving toward the future. After sharing in these students exuberance for scholarly discussion, enthusiasm for genuine friendship, and irrepressible energy for socializing, I conclude that the future is in quite capable hands! Following Senator James Fulbright's vision, "We must try to expand the boundaries of human wisdom, empathy and perception, and there is no way of doing that except through education," FISI offered courses in such topics as "The Philosophical Issues of XXI Century," "American Foreign Policy and International System in the Age of Globalization," and "Logic in Continental Tradition." The young scholars had chosen their core courses of study before arriving in Tryavna and were eager participants, asking engaging questions and contributing perspectives unique to their cultural backgrounds. These remarkable students demonstrated to the Tryavna locals that something very interesting and unique was going on at the Seasons Hotel. Lead by Theodore Efremoff an artist from the University of Connecticut, the students donned white clothing and marched single file through the town square. At the artist's command, they lay flat on the street, head to toe, while Ted painted the language of conflict and resolution one word per person, on each student's torso using a chocolate "paint." Tourists and locals were leery at first, then puzzled, and finally pleased as the living art piece stood in unison to take a bow. Though funding is always difficult to find, The Bulgarian Fulbright Commission has sponsored FISI for seven years. Under the direction of Dr. Julia Stefanova, with the able assistance of Rada Kaneva, Dr. Kostadin Grozev, Iolanta Koprinova, Anastassia Miteva, and others, FISI quietly goes about the task of changing the world through international education and exchange. This year, I was one of those lucky enough to participate, and I am changed forever. N55, October-December
8 Newsletter Theodore Efremoff Fulbright graduate student, Installation Art Assignment in Bulgaria: National Academy of Arts, Sofia Project Title: Temporal Monuments As part of my Fulbright Fellowship to Bulgaria I was invited to take classes at the two week Fulbright International Summer Institute in Triavna. Along with fellow Fulbrighters, administration and professors the population of the school consisted of about 40 international students taking courses in a variety of Subjects such as Law, Philosophy, Economics and Bulgarian History and Culture. During the first week of the school I was asked what seemed like an innocent question: What do you do? I am an artist. Will you show us your work? Sure. What kind of work do you do? I do installation and performance art. We should do a performance here. I would be happy to mediate a performance of your making. At least in my memory the conversation went something like that. So the following day I showed my fellow students my work and over the next three days they created a performance: A large group of people comes to a busy town square on a Saturday evening in August in Triavna, Bulgaria. They are wearing white. Having been noticed by the town residents and tourists, they seem conspicuous. They hold an answer not yet revealed. They line up at an outstretched arms length from one another to form a long curved line on the square. A man with a bucket of dark liquid (syrup), a brush on a meter long stick and a blue whistle around his neck stands at the back of the line. As he blows the whistle in a rapid burst the first person in line lies down. The man paints the word INTENSE in Bulgarian on the person in large block letters running the length of the body. Another blast of the whistle and the next one lies down face up on the ground. This body receives PAS- SION. This progresses until the following poem is written on all 25 bodies now lying in the street: СИЛНА СТРАСТ ЗА ЛЕСНА ПЕЧАЛБА INTENSE PASSION FOR EASY PROFIT НАДЗЕМНА ПОХОТ ЗА РОЗОВИ БЕЗРАЗЛИЧНИ YСМИВKИ OVER-GROUND LUST FOR PINK INDIFFERENT SMILES МИРЪТ СТРАДА, ОБСЕБВAН ОТ МИНАЛО И НАСИЛИЕ, БОЛКА, РЕВHOСТ, ДИСКРИМИНАЦИЯ PEACE SUFFERS OBSESSED WITH PAST AND VIOLENCE, PAIN, JEAL- OUSY, DISCRIMINATION ВOEННА МАШИНА, ДРЪН- ДРЪН WAR MACHINE, BLAH-BLAH-BLAH НЕВEРНИТЕ ДРУГИ СЕ БОРЯТ С УЖАСЯВAЩАТА ГЛУПОСТ UNFAITHFULL OTHERS FIGHT HORRIBLE STUPIDITY The poem is a result of each participant s one word response to the word HATE. As the man blows another, more elongated sound of the whistle the people lying down extend their left arm at a right angle to their bodies revealing a sentence written in black on the inside of their arm. Each sentence written on the arm is part of a response to the previous sentence written by another. The next whistle prompts the right arm to extend and complete the human sign of the cross. 25 bodies lie in silence in the square forming the line of a sentence. Each person as a word. A group as a poem. An individual s sentence on the arm extending the group story. As the poem is being written the line is active and alive with a beginning in the past and a present still revealing itself. As the poem is completed it should become part of the past, with time frozen in the words, except each word is still an individual. They are talking to people in the square, answering questions, receiving drinks of water or watching people staring at them and walking around and over them. The final whistle blows and the performers slowly get up from the ground, spontaneously join hands and extend their experience into a freeform celebration of their accomplishment. As I participated, watched and later thought about the performance I remembered the words of the German Artist Joseph Beuys: "Every human being is an artist, a freedom being, called to participate in transforming and reshaping the conditions, thinking and structures that shape and inform our lives" 08 N55, October-December 2008
9 Newsletter This quote is directly linked to the Beuys idea of Social Sculpture, a concept in which each human being exerts influence on the world around them creating an invisible sculpture of social networks and ultimately crafting an evolved social order, A social organism as a work of art. Joseph Beuys promoted an expanded concept of art and considered politics and activism art. He used the slogan Unity in Diversity as a rallying point for tolerance when he ran on the Green Party ticket for Bundestag. His projects Save the Woods and 7 Thousand Oaks spearheaded the ecological movement through direct action in the 1970 s by combating pollution and planting trees. While a Professor at the Düsseldorf Academy of Art Beuys overenrolled his classes arguing that those who want to learn should meet with those who want to teach and there should be no restrictions on admission to a school. For this action the Düsseldorf Academy of Art dismissed Beuys in That same year Beuys started the Free International University, a school that was open to all students. Beuys philosophy of teaching was not based on the hierarchical relationship of teacher above student, but on the equality of the two punctuated by each having the ability to learn from the other. The project consisting of 30 or so creators veered left or right depending on the next suggestion. The hardships of the democratic process were revealed with every suggestion changing the project in our minds. I remember thinking that a dictatorship would be much easier. The participants brainstormed, argued and eventually cooperated. The performance evolved within three days and following a short rehearsal was executed with care and intent. Each participant affected the artwork by providing a word. Physically arranging the words into a poem created nuances of word interaction by juxtaposition. The sentences written on the performers arms completed in a personal way a story started by others. The living sculpture created by the participants has a beginning and end and implies a metaphoric journey. Interconnections of the bodies or words speak about participation. The physical and visual quality of the spine implies a support or backbone. These students are in reality embarking on a journey that can lead them to being the backbone of their respective countries. The quality of their curiosity and their intelligence can allow them to be the future participants and contributors to world culture, science and commerce. The performance, crafted and executed by young, educated, primarily Eastern European students who share a common language (English) is a reflection of their world view. The poem they created speaks to dissatisfaction with Corporate and personal profiteering, ethnic and religious intolerance and war. It can be read as an indictment of past economic and political policies the results of which these students are inheriting. This multinational, multi ethnic group has the ability to unite under a culture more global than ever before. At the Fulbright International Summer Institute the students had the empathy and capacity to communicate successfully with one another and work as a team. I was reminded of Beuys because of the nature of the student s request to create a performance. It seemed like a grass roots desire to make a work of art. On the other hand it was an activist gesture of response to global hatred. So this blurring of the boundaries of art and activism was something that Beuys promoted. The ultimate action by the students can be described both as an act of activism and art. The most intriguing aspect of the interaction with the students for me is that they sought to make a connection with me based on my experience as an artist, and the performance created as a result of the interaction was created in a truly collaborative manner. As I was also in the position of a student at the Fulbright International Summer The performance evolved along the lines of a Social Sculpture with students making suggestions, which gradually found their way into the common psyche of the group and became the modus operandi. As I presented my work I remember mentioning the fact that I was a painter in the past. One of the first questions asked after the presentation was whether I was still capable of painting. When I said yes, it was suggested that the painting be on the students themselves. Although initially the painting was going to be an image, eventually another suggestion led to writing words. This led to the idea of a sentence, a poem or a story. N55, October-December
10 Newsletter Institute I did not feel any desire to hold anyone accountable for the kind of work they produced. My role became that of a fellow creator and organizer. This experience has lead me to re examine my own teaching methodology as well as artistic process. The students sought a guide and a vehicle for their expression with ought being prompted. This to me signifies that this group of young people can act as creative beings in order to achieve their goals and make the statements they care to make in a democratic way. Their ability to recognize their own power and attain an impact in their joined voice has a quality of confidence and leadership. Human ability to be creative is not a matter in question. The ability of the students described in this paper to take the chance to tap into their creative force and express themselves as artists is a positive sign for the kind of leaders Europe is capable of producing. Participants responses: Gergana Georgieva, Bulgaria Edward Lorenz, the meteorologist who laid the foundations of chaos theory, explores the idea that any small action in one part of the world can subsequently affect the world on a larger scale. He is responsible for asking the question of whether a butterfly s flapping it s wings in Brazil can set off a tornado in Texas. In the delicate balance of human relations and interaction each persons wing flap is important. So the challenges in front of these young people are clear. How do they move forward and create a European and world community that respond in a positive way to the mistakes of their predecessors? How do they capitalize on their experience of empathy with each other as representatives of diverse communities? What will the Social Sculpture built by the flapping of these peoples wings look like? At the beginning I was a little skeptical about the chosen theme hatred. I would personally prefer art, which brings out the good in people. I thought hate would just bring negative emotions. But it turned to be the opposite way. What everybody responded to the theme was very positive. It was hate for hating; hate for the world that hates, for the things and actions, which are morally bad. So the hate brought a lot of good, all the participants were united in caring for each other. Everybody knew what to do and how to be part of the big whole with very little rehearsal. It all came from everybody for everybody without any conflicting opinions. The organization was very easy because everyone responded. As for the impact we have to ask the locals. What I witnessed I would not change for anything. People were moved. It doesn t matter if they understood it all or liked it but they were put in a situation, which is not common. It was a challenge in a way, which always stimulates different thoughts. The locals asked me all kinds of questions; a woman even said that she hasn t seen so many people in the center of Tryavna for a long time. People were excited, that s always a good thing. I think the team building aspect of the performance brought the participants closer. It was interesting to realize that you and your group did something together almost without any leadership (or lets say a hidden one). And it would not have been true or at least the same if not everybody participated. We can now strongly associate ourselves with the group and say, WE did this. Last but not least I have to say it was simply beautiful, it was sweet (we used chocolate and berry jam) and it was clean and simple it was a work of art. Varvara Kountouzi, Greece/US In the beginning I did not have faith in the project. I felt there was not enough time to deal with the dissonance of different strong opinions. This was also one of the reasons I chose not to add one more voice to the conceiving process and go with the flow instead. In the end it turned out very differently. The very dissonance that I initially 10 N55, October-December 2008
11 Newsletter saw as a problem became the success of the project. Once there was a common goal everybody came together and worked toward it, even the people who were not initially part of it. They offered encouragement, water to those of us who were lying down. This working together, the feeling of camaraderie was the very response to the word hate, in my opinion. Iryna Zhuravel, Ukraine My contribution to the project was taking part in the performance and enjoying it. I did not take part in the process of collaboration of ideas, although eventually the performance turned out to be of great value for me. Regarding the message of the performance and the word hate, we the participants were perceived as something different, maybe strange and odd by the people of the local community, we got all kinds of attitudes toward us standing their on the square, but no matter what the attitude was at the end we ended up being just an object with a word written on it, and when people were passing by trying to read the entire sentence they did not pay attention to the fact that we actually were just normal regular people, just stretched in line on the ground. I ve smiled to some of them, and then even tried to make faces while no one noticed. And that s how it really happens in real life, when people just read a label written on Us, and this one single word, like Muslim, Jewish, Russian or Romanian is the only thing that matter for them, not the smile or anything else. When you are perceived as a part of a group and when personality doesn t matter that is when the stereotypes come in and transform into hate. Arben Zibri, Albania The genuine irrationality in creating that performance showed a standard expression of happiness through people of different cultures and educational approaches. I really enjoyed the performance and was left with this perception: project is a collage of what hate means to a group of people with vastly different cultural backgrounds and life experiences. Backbone is an appropriate name for the project because each participant put his/her independent input into his/her perception of hate. Moreover, visually the queue of white bodies on the main square of the city center depicts a spine. The sentences are abstract and convoluted and this mirrors the senselessness of hate put into action. Novena Radulova, Bulgaria In the beginning I was not truly enthusiastic about the project. I was observing a lot of chaotic opinions and diverse points of view. What a mess! Bit in fact very quickly the idea became more precise; participants arrived at a consensus and their motivation raised in a short period of time. I was surprised to observe such a transformation. Our performance was a good illustration of the artistic process from chaos to creation. Everyone s motivation and energy were completely contagious. The creation virus infected us all. Alexandra-Maria Bocse, Romania My contribution to the project was to suggest a phrase or word to be used in the performance. It gave the performance a different perspective. The experience was really rewarding emotionally. Maybe at the beginning the viewers were intrigued, amazed and curious about the work, but I believe in time the performance will provide them with food for thought. Irena Peresa, Croatia I was really surprised about how quickly everything was set up. The time between the idea and its realization was so short! It helped us to feel how important we are individually for the group as a whole, how every person in the group was essential to the outcome of the project. For me personally, this was the very first time that I took part in a performance. The initial embarrassment (once at the square) quickly disappeared because it was shared with my friends. I was being an object (a message, a word), and it felt really cool. It was funny to look at people looking at us, and to compare the ways in which they reacted to us. These curves can give sense to every choice in your life, but by having this approach life would have no sense. Peter Varma, Canada Misunderstandings, confusion, hate and chaos. We all interpret words differently; especially those with strong emotions like hate. The N55, October-December
12 Newsletter To Chicago and Back Galina Nikolova AY Fulbright Graduate Student The New School For Management and Urban Policy, New York, NY MS in Organizational Change Management how long you have been in New York? For three days. For The above conversation was taking place at the end of August At that time I had just packed my life in two suitcases, left Bulgaria, spent about a week at the Fulbright Orientation in Miami, and used the New York subway for a first time the day before. Can you imagine that feeling? When you can almost see the line that separates the before and now of your life? When everything that is in front of you is new, unfamiliar and exciting, and you just happened to be the biggest adventurer in your life? That feeling is unforgettable, and the experience is definitely a life changing one. I have decided to apply for a Fulbright scholarship in order to pursue a dream of mine to study in the field of the Organizational Development in the country of its origin, America. A few years ago In Miami that dream just didn t seem possible, until a friend of mine was awarded with the scholarship himself and encouraged me to apply as well. That was about two years ago. Since that decision a lot of things have changed for me. Now I am a student at one of the most progressive universities in the United States. I am studying in my favorite field that combines management and psychology reading and learning a lot already, even though it has only been one semester since I have started. I have met people from all over the world both through the Orientation in Miami and my classes at The New School, I have made new friends to share my experiences with, I have walked the streets of New York in three seasons summer, fall, and winter. I have also become a member of the global Fulbright community and have shared the honor that this brings to everyone who is part of it. The Fulbright experience is about learning not only in respective fields of study but learning about differ- At a Fulbright reception ent cultures and countries as well. Over the last four months I attended a workshop for becoming a Global Guide so that I can share with students in various public schools in New York about Bulgaria and the culture I am coming from. I have also answered many questions about Bulgaria (ranging from Is it close to Russia?, through What is the weather like?, to Is Plovdiv still the second biggest city? ). I was happy to meet people who have visited Bulgaria for various reasons and to speak with them about their most favorable experiences and memories of their trips. But I have been learning a lot about the American culture as well. I dressed up with a costume and walked the Halloween parade at the very end of October. I spent my first real Thanksgiving with an American family in a small town in Delaware (26 guest and I was the only one not from the family; 2 turkeys, sweet potatoes, cranberry sauce, 4 different pies, American football in the backyard, and a lot of special moments and shared laughs). And I improvised with fortunes in an apple pie for Christmas since making the traditional Bulgarian banitsa was not an option. In the next couple of months I am going to start my second semester as a Fulbrighter at The New School, to attend an Enrichment seminar in Philadelphia and to see how New York changes its clothes for the spring. And I am looking forward to it. When I was telling to one of my close friends about all my different experiences, he looked at me and said: You are now living your dreams. And he was right.

MARKET CLOSE: NZ shares rise on broad based rally, Xero, Telecom, property stocks gain
By Suze Metherell
April 10 (BusinessDesk) – New Zealand stocks rose in a broad-based rally. Xero extended its gains, leading the benchmark index higher, while investors also returned to companies offering reasonable dividends, such as Telecom and property trusts.
The NZX 50 Index rose 48.082 points, or 0.9 percent, to 5115.489. Within the index, 31 stocks rose, nine fell and 10 were unchanged. Turnover was $137 million.
New Zealand tech stocks were sold off sharply earlier this week following declines in the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite Index on fears too much earnings optimism was built into their prices.
Xero, the cloud-based accounting software company, rose 3.1 percent to $33.10 although it is still down 32 percent on the month. Telecom advanced 0.8 percent to $2.60, accounting for about a fifth of total turnover on the day. The stock is attractive to investors with its relatively high dividend yield of 6.2 percent. By contrast, a two-year term deposit on average is offering 4.67 percent.
DNZ Property Fund gained 1.6 percent to $1.55, Property For Industry lifted 1.2 percent to $1.29 while Goodman Property Trust climbed 1 percent to 97 cents. Precinct Properties New Zealand was up 0.5 percent to $1.00.
"In general there has probably been a slight move from growth to value over the last couple of weeks and I think that's happened around the globe," said Nigel Scott, director at Craigs Investment Partners.
He said the broad based rally, where "even property stocks are up" was in part as investors paid a premium to enter New Zealand's relatively low-liquidity market. Some 50 million shares changed hands on the NZX 50, compared to about 539 million on Australia's S&P/ASX 200 Index.
Milk marketer a2 Milk Co was unchanged at 87 cents, but has gained 55 percent in the past 12 months. Pacific Edge, makers of a non-invasive bladder cancer detection test which has risen 104 percent in the past year, was unchanged at $1.22.
Outside the benchmark index tech stocks were mixed. SLI Systems, the search engine developer, climbed 0.9 percent to $2.05. GeoOp, the small business task manager app, was unchanged at $1.50. Wynyard Group, the security software firm, slipped 2 percent to $2.50.
Fletcher Building, New Zealand's largest listed company, rose 0.5 percent to $9.64. The nation's carrier, Air New Zealand, advanced 1.5 percent to $2.08, while Auckland International Airport gained 1.8 percent to $3.93.
Warehouse Group was unchanged at $3.20. New Zealand's largest listed retailer today announced it had raised $15 million in a share purchase plan, although investors had cooled on the offer, with $4.2 million taken up by its underwriter Deutsche Craigs.
Brisbane-based jeweller Michael Hill International declined 0.7 percent to $1.35. Trade Me Group, the online auction website, rose 3.1 percent to $3.98 while Kathmandu Holdings, the outdoor goods retailer, was unchanged at $3.76.
Casino operator SkyCity Entertainment Group rose 0.3 percent to $3.97. Sky Network Television advanced 2.1 percent to $6.45.


text: James Bond Style From Matchless Posted by Chris Francis on November 20, 2015 The Matchless Craig Blouson was designed for the latest James Bond Spectre film. The jacket featured in some of the scenes set in Morocco. Even if you haven't seen Spectre, you will still no doubt be familiar with one of the biggest British Style icons of all time, James Bond. The pairing of a stylish British brand as rich with heritage as Matchless with Britain's best dressed spy is a perfect match (no pun intended). The jacket epitomises the iconic spy's chic style. Made from an ultra soft and light Suede with meticulous attention to detail, no wonder it caught Léa Seydoux's eye. Mr. Bond certainly has a knack of making jackets highly desirable. and now this beautiful jacket from Matchless. With only 700 of these jackets worldwide, it will be a one off production that is set to follow suit.
