Solar Winners, Chat Day and The Weekend Poll

A couple of early winners have been announced at the Solar Decathlon still underway through this weekend on the National Mall. So far, Team California has taken first place for architecture and communications; the University of Louisiana at Lafayette has taken first place for market viability; and the University of Minnesota has taken first place for lighting design. The rest of the winners will be announced Friday.

Here's the link to the ePropertyWatch service that monitors local government records for changes to your deed records. Details are in yesterday's blog post.

Chat Day is today! Join the conversation live from 1-2 p.m. today, or submit your comments early.

Weekend Reading: For all they give us, trees don't get a lot of recognition. That's changing in Arlington and some other communities. Susan Straight has the details. And columnist Kenneth Harney reports on government warnings about credit-repair cons.

The Weekend Poll
