While I was polishing up my blog about the power outage, I googled Tropical Storm Isaias to double check I was spelling it correctly. The request timed out but I figured it was just this thing the wifi does in our apartment where it gets moody about the distance between my computer and the router. After bringing it closer and then plugging in the ethernet cable and switching everything off and on again a million times, I had to accept that there was no internet. I found it ironic that I was trying to post a blog about the power of power, in which the power of the internet played a role, and could not because, while I did have electricity, I had no internet access.

Editor’s note: I accidentally sent yesterday’s email to the wrong setting, so you most likely didn’t get it. I caught this well after sending it out and there’s no way to send it again without creating a new post. I’ve reused some of the info in today’s newsletter, so some of you may have seen this twice! Do take a look at yesterday’s edition if you missed it. Today’s shout-out is for the Parent-Teacher Organizations of the Charlottesville City Schools, and their request for donations to the Reopening Fund: Ready to Teach, Ready to Learn. Visit their website for more information and to make a contribution. There are another 1,005 new cases of COVID-19 reported today by the Virginia Department of Health and another 23 new deaths. The seven-day positive testing rate remains at 6.4 percent statewide. There is one more death reported in Charlottesville for a total of 46 to date in the Thomas Jefferson Health District. The district reported 25 new cases today with 12 from Albemarle, eight from Fluvanna, three from Charlottesville and three from Greene. In the district the seven-day positive testing rate is at 5.5 percent. That figure was at 6.4 percent on August 18. *The Charlottesville Redevelopment and Housing Authority’s Board of Commissioners last night got an update on the redevelopment of public housing sites in the city. The long-awaited renovation of Crescent Halls as well as the first phase of new units at South First Street are getting closer to breaking ground. Dave Norris is the director of redevelopment at CRHA. “We’re making good progress in getting to closing on our first two projects and there’s a number of hoops we have to jump through but one of the final hoops was a approval from the fair housing office at HUD,” Norris said. HUD is the acronym for the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and their approval was for something called the Site and Neighborhood Standards Review Process. Norris said the city has assisted CRHA in getting bonds to finance the project, and that closing on all of the financial paperwork should take place by October 1.  “And then it will take a little bit of time to mobilize and get some construction activity going but we’re still hoping to break ground this calendar year, and that’s to be determined, but we’re getting there,” Norris said. There are currently 58 vacancies among the city’s 376 public housing units as of August 24, with 26 of those at Crescent Halls in order to prepare for those units to be upgraded as part of the renovation. Executive Director John Sales said they are working on ways to get those units refurbished so they can be returned to service. “So right now we are working with Habitat,” Sales said. “Habitat has pledged us some construction managers and possible volunteers to assist us with a few units. We currently have a contractor going through some of the units as well.”Sales said 49 of the CRHA’s housing vouchers are in use with families living in an affordable living arrangement, and there is a goal of adding 20 more in recent weeks. However, there are obstacles to doing so. “Unfortunately, the more vouchers we put on the street, the harder it is for individuals to find housing units and we already have low numbers of being successful in finding units in a short amount of time,” Sales said, adding it takes between 90 and 150 days for a housing voucher recipient to actually move in. The CRHA has been discussing ways to incentivize property owners to accept the vouchers. *The Charlottesville Chamber of Commerce has been identified as a world leader for the way it has helped local businesses adjust to the COVID-19 pandemic. The International Association of Facilitators will give the Chamber one of 17 Facilitation Impact Awards for the Project Rebound program. The recognition also goes to the Organizational Excellence program at the University of Virginia. In May, the Chamber held over three dozen meetings to get input before launching its Blueprint for Economic Resiliency in the Greater Charlottesville Region on June 25, 2020. The facilitation work is credited with translating business concerns into concrete ideas embedded in the plan. The award will be handed out at a virtual ceremony on October 26. *Virginia’s coastline was hit fairly hard earlier this month by Tropical Storm Isaias which spawned several tornadoes on the eastern shore and caused flooding throughout much of the Commonwealth. That’s part of a continuing trend toward a more turbulent climate. This fall, the Northam administration will release a master plan to deal with rising sea levels, which are experienced now in the form of more frequent sunny day flooding. Part of that will include greater data about where flooding occurs, data coordinated by the Commonwealth Center for Recurrent Flooding Resiliency. Retired Navy Admiral Ann C. Phillips is Northam’s Special Assistant for Coastal Adaptation and Protection. “You can go in and look at coastal Virginia using this new nuisance flood overlay data and the intent is that it will help localities and communities better understand the context of nuisance flooding which we are seeing more and more and more of and which we will see more and more and more of in our future, and then overlay that with sea level rise projections and also with a cat 1 or a moderate Northeaster storm,” Phillips said. Phillips said nuisance flooding today in some places will lead to permanent inundations but there can be remedies that also improve water quality. Earlier this year, the General Assembly passed legislation that strengthens the role the plan will play in Virginia’s conservation programs. Phillips made her comments Friday at the annual meeting for Resilient Virginia. The group aims to increase planning for and awareness of adaptation to a changing climate. *The word of the day in government meetings today is “reservoir.” First, the Rivanna Water and Sewer Authority will meet at 2:15 p.m. One topic will be the unveiling of a master plan for land that had been purchased in the 1980’s for the Buck Mountain Reservoir. That project never went forward because of the presence of an endangered species. Some original landowners have requested the land to be sold back to them. (master plan) (full agenda)The Greene County Board of Supervisors will get an update on the proposed water supply plan that was to have been undertaken by the Rapidan Service Authority. Last month the Madison County and Orange County representatives on the RSA Board voted to stop collecting facility fees to pay for impoundment along White Run for a new reservoir. Prepare for this by reading Terry Beigie’s latest story in the Greene County Record. Another meeting today is the Charlottesville Housing Advisory Committee which meets at 1 p.m. The Rivanna Solid Waste Authority also meets shortly before the RWSA. The two will hold a joint strategic planning meeting as part of the RWSA agenda. (full agenda)*Thanks for reading or listening! Why not do both?

Today’s shout-out is for the Parent-Teacher Organizations of the Charlottesville City Schools, and their request for donations to the Reopening Fund: Ready to Teach, Ready to Learn. Visit their website for more information and to make a contribution. Publisher’s note - this installment was inadvertently set to the wrong setting, hence it is coming out later than usual. *The state of Virginia has added another 2,770 cases of COVID-19 since Friday, with 664 of them reported this morning. There have been another 35 deaths reported since Friday for a total to date of 2,471. The seven-day average for positive tests declined to 6.4 percent today, down from 6.6 percent on Friday. In the Thomas Jefferson Health District, there have been 52 new cases reported over the weekend, including eight today. There have been two new fatalities in the district for a total of 45 to date. The seven-day average for positive tests was at 5.6 percent on Sunday, continuing a downward trend. The latest report on the model from the University of Virginia’s Biocomplexity Institute states there could be 11,306 new cases in Virginia for the week of September 27, The report also states that “anticipated season changes in the Fall could lead to a surge beginning around Labor Day with schools and universities open.” The report notes that both the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and North Carolina State University re-opened for in-person instruction on August 10, but have already shifted to online due to clusters of COVID infection among students. (UVa Model)*The University of Virginia welcomed its incoming class in a virtual ceremony Sunday night. Dean of Students Allen Groves began the Convocation event by speaking into a camera rather than directly to a crowd of first-year and transfer students. (UVA Today article)“As you are all too aware, COVID-19 has up-ended many of our traditions and plans but this doesn’t alter in any way the fact that you are starting what I hope will be one of the most memorable journeys of your life,” Groves said, promising that students would be able to walk down the Lawn when they graduate. “While it’s true this fall that you may not get to play rugby in Mad Bowl, or enter Old Cabell Hall for an a capella concert packed with your friends, or sway with a hundred other students singing the Good Old Song, or huff and puff your way up Humpback Rocks with 25 of your closest friends, this will still be a memorable time in your life with lots of opportunities to bond with friends and enrich your mind,” Groves said. “And we will overcome the current COVID-19 challenge and be right back to doing all of these things that we love so much.” President Jim Ryan said this year at UVA will be unlike anything before and that there would be many challenges. In-person classes are not scheduled to begin until September 8, two weeks after originally planned because of rising caseloads in the Thomas Jefferson Health District in reporter in early August. Ryan said Convocation is not about COVID but about welcoming students, no matter where they are. “You belong here,” Ryan said. “I don’t mean by this that you need be here physically.”Ryan’s speech contained many references to the need to wait until it is safe to have the full experience, such as office hours or large gatherings. He also urged students to eventually connect with people who live in this area. “Look for a chance to build a bridge to the broader Charlottesville community. This is a wonderful place but like other small cities it has its challenges and a complicated history. I encourage you to learn about this history and to engage with this broader community. There are countless ways to do so, including some amazing programs at Madison House.”Last week, the city’s Human Right Commission discussed their concerns over UVA’s opening. Kathryn Laughon is a member of the Commission. “I would like to ask the University to not have the undergraduate students return in person,” Laughon said. “They can’t control what the students who don’t like in dorms do. Jim Ryan has said he doesn’t want to bring the students back if he doesn’t think that they are going to be able to stay for the whole semester.”  A final decision about whether to proceed with in-person classes on August 28. *Virginia’s coastline was hit fairly hard earlier this month by Tropical Storm Isaias which spawned several tornadoes on the eastern shore and caused flooding throughout much of the Commonwealth. That’s part of a continuing trend toward a more turbulent climate. This fall, the Northam administration will release a master plan to deal with rising sea levels, which are experienced now in the form of more frequent sunny day flooding. The plan is informed by better data about where flooding occurs, data coordinated by the Commonwealth Center for Recurrent Flooding Resiliency. Retired Navy Admiral Ann C. Phillips is Northam’s Special Assistant for Coastal Adaptation and Protection. “You can go in and look at coastal Virginia using this new nuisance flood overlay data and the intent is that it will help localities and communities better understand the context of nuisance flooding which we are seeing more and more and more of and which we will see more and more and more of in our future, and then overlay that with sea level rise projections and also with a cat 1 or a moderate Northeaster storm,” Phillips said. Phillips said nuisance flooding today in some places will lead to permanent inundations but there can be remedies that also improve water quality.

The CRHA is finalizing construction contracts with the firms hired to begin work on the renovation of Crescent Halls as well as new units that will be built at South First Street. (meeting info)The Steering Committee for the C’Ville Plans Together initiative is scheduled to meet virtually at 4 p.m. for another meeting. Jennifer Koch of the firm Rhodeside & Harwell explains what it’s all about. "The effort that we're calling Cville Plans Together is an effort that we as a consultant are working with NDS, the Planning Commission and others to continue the update to the Comprehensive Plan that was started in 2017, 2018," Koch said. "That includes a big focus on housing and housing affordability with a specific housing plan that will be part of the housing chapter of the Comprehensive Plan."I wrote a summary and produced a podcast of the August 11 Charlottesville Planning Commission discussion that is now the first item to be available through a premium subscription.

Tropical Storm Isaias passed last Tuesday, delivering us a glancing blow on its way through western Massachusetts and New York. We saw big gusts, spotty outages, and not nearly enough rain. But for the astute and ambitious birder, the storm brought gifts as well, gifts hoovered up from Caribbean waters and deposited far from home - Sooty Terns made a series of appearances in the region, delighting some lucky birders who picked up a life bird normally requiring a trip to a remote tropical island.

Part One: A Whisper and a Clamor Jack, Mike, and Nate here for this installment of Hardly Focused! Jack is recovering from an 18-hour long power outage, thanks to Tropical Storm Isaias. No word yet on if he can correctly pronounce “Isaias.” Elsewhere in the world, a massive explosion leaves most of Beirut in ruins. Jack thinks the blast looks like Sarah Connor’s nuclear dream in Terminator 2. Timely reference aside, peace to the folks of Beirut as they recover. Part Two: AVN Expo Jack features audio from a video by All Gas No Brakes on YouTube. In this video, host Andrew Callaghan interviews attendees at the AVN Expo in Las Vegas.

How to Choose A Student Credit Card: https://callputstrike.com/2020/08/04/how-to-choose-a-student-credit-card/ Market Optimism On Second COVID-19 Stimulus Plan – Daily Financial News Summary for August 4, 2020 The winds are howling on Wall Street today as Tropical Storm Isaias made its way up the east coast today. Unrelated, but the markets did blow higher with the Dow Jones up 0.6%, the S&P 500 up 0.36%, while the Nasdaq climbed 0.35% to another record close. Stoxx Europe 600 Index fell 0.1%. The euro rose 0.3% to $1.1801. Some of the positivity in the markets came from developments in the next stages of COVID-19 stimulus packages. Mitch McConnell is supposedly “prepared to support” a coronavirus relief agreement when one is reached between the White House and the dems. The $600 per week federal unemployment benefits and a moratorium on federally backed housing have both expired, as we reported on yesterday. Disney announced earnings after the bell Tuesday, and earnings per share outperformed at 8 cents compared to the expected loss of 64 cents, according to Refinitiv. Additionally, they announced that they now have over 100 million paid subscribers on their streaming services, which include Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+. As many expected, park closures impacted revenues significantly. Shares saw little movement on the results. What would Tuesday be without tech? Apple climbed 0.6%, but Netflix gained 2.2% and Amazon was up 0.87%. Alphabet fell 0.6% and Facebook slipped 0.85%. https://callputstrike.com/2020/08/04/market-optimism-on-second-covid-19-stimulus-plan-daily-financial-news-summary-for-august-4-2020/ JPMorgan Strategists Warn Of Imminent Stock Market Correction A stock market correction is imminent. Those are sentiments shared by strategists at JPMorgan. According to the strategists, the correction could come calling in the next few weeks as a plethora of weak economic data, continue to raise concerns. Payroll data, employment reports, and retail sales in the coming days are some of the releases that could trigger the correction. “Some misgivings are justified given a macro backdrop that is becoming muddied, but not muddied enough to justify bearish targets or a defensive investment strategy,” say, strategists, led by John Normand, in a note. https://callputstrike.com/2020/08/04/jpmorgan-strategists-warn-of-imminent-stock-market-correction/ --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/callputstrike/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/callputstrike/support
