Burnaby / Tempur-Pedic
The way you feel when you wake from a restful night's sleep is incomparable. You feel healthier, more productive and better equipped to take on another day in lovely Burnaby. When you are getting the right amount of sleep, you are doing your body a favor. Studies have shown that getting those extra few hours provides you with a better balance overall; other advantages include increased mental and physical health.

A great night's sleep is often dependent on your level of comfort while sleeping. If your mattress is not supportive enough, or improperly suited to your body type, you could be doing yourself a disservice. Owning the correct mattress is essential to getting the right amount of sleep and maintaining your health. If your mattress is too soft, or too old, you could be doing permanent damage to your spine and other delicate areas of your body. Take care of yourself and give your body the superior comfort it deserves. There is a right mattress combination for everyone, and you'll enjoy the benefit of a customized mattress for years to come. You know that your health and performance is directly connected to your ability to sleep well, make sure you have the support you deserve with the right mattress.
Choosing the correct mattress for you is dependent on several factors. The position you sleep in, your preferred level of firmness, and the position of your bed itself. Try out different Tempur-Pedic mattress collections to ensure you know what will make you the most comfortable. Those who prefer a soft to medium firm mattress will best appreciate a TEMPUR-Cloud mattress that combines a pillow-top with comfortable durability. For a slightly firmer mattress, discover the body hugging TEMPUR-Contour collection. No matter what your sleeping position or preferred texture, there's a great selection for you to choose from with Tempur-Pedic.
Environmental factors are also something to think about. TEMPUR-Breeze is an air technology that eliminates excess heat during sleep. For those who sleep hot and feel that they are unable to get comfortable because of temperature issues, this is an ideal choice.
With an adjustable base, you'll also have the ability to adjust your mattress to suit your back comfort needs while you are sitting or lounging. Adjust your bed to experience maximum comfort while reading, sleeping or watching television.
At Relax The Back in Burnaby, we understand the importance of finding the perfect mattress for you. Visit our Burnaby back store to speak with a back care product consultant about all the different Tempur-Pedic collections we offer and discover which style suits you best.

Jul 7th 2011 8:16PM I don't understand the "Yay CD Projekt" for their removal of Securom, it existed (when they said in the first place there wasn't going to be DRM) and it prevented people from playing the game. They only patched it after a week of people being unable to use their game.
They fixed their game, it wasn't CD Projekt being anti-DRM. It was them simply making sure people could play the damn game after they lied.

Inside traders at public U.S. companies made nearly $2 billion from 2000 to 2007, according to the study led by Paul Griffin, a professor in UCD's Graduate School of Management. The study tracked insider stock transactions that occurred during or near 1,718 first-time disclosures of debt covenant violations by companies. Statistical analysis showed that insiders sold stock one to two months ahead of market declines preceding a disclosure, and bought shares one to two months ahead of market recovery.

everything was fine for a while then one day i was playing UT and when i finished a game (and won) i clicked fire to load the next map but it just said loading and stopped and stayed in the finished game i tried to start another game but it wouldn't show any of the maps i quit and tried again but it just kept happening!

Check this thread:
http://forums.planetunreal.com/showt...threadid=32178 To sum it up it's a virus infecting the winsock32.dll called Hybrid. It causes Windows or UT to confuse temporary directories. Therefor it won't load any maps. Use a virsus scanner to scan the Windows/Systems directory. If it is infected you can either do a soft re-install of Windows or replace the files manually. It's all explained in deatail in the thread above |

Google docs formatting rows based on condition
I currently have a Google doc where I store a bunch of invoices and I want to be able to colour a whole row red if an invoice is overdue. I can do this for one cell but I can't work out how to build a script to colour a whole row.
I'd also like to be able to colour a row orange if it is due in the next 7 days and leave it green if it has been marked as paid.
There doesn't appear to be any solutions available to colour a whole row based on a condition.
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

M/S of a mid 1950s contemporary Mercedes with a vintage car ("an old crock") coming out of a garage behind it. According to the narrator this is going to be a revolutionary experiment - using the motor car for troop transport. Presumably this is a re-enactment of the first transport of troops by car in 1909. Men in the military costume of the day climb into various vintage cars - they are to be transported to Hastings. Various shots of the "soldiers" climbing in. High angle shot of large number of vintage cars.
Travelling shots of the soldiers in the cars and of the cars leaving the barracks. This run has been organised by the Automobile Association as part of the AA's Golden Jubilee celebrations. 50 veteran cars are taking part - various shots of them travelling along different roads. A guardsman jumps out of one of the cars (to give it a push perhaps?)
Various shots of the reception at Hastings. Crowds are there to greet the cars and men in uniform and local dignitaries wait outside the "White Rock Pavilion". First to arrive is a 1903 Cadillac driven by F.S. Bennett, President of the Veteran Car Club who led the 1909 run. A vintage London bus is seen - typical of many which saw action in the first World War. The bus passes the camera. Various other vintage cars are seen. Two policemen in 1909 style uniforms stand to attention.
Note: various documentation exists on file about this event.

We are in the middle of a kitchen remodel. I bought a two hole 8" spread bridge faucet. Our plumber told us tonight that we need to buy a new faucet because the shanks are too short for the thickness of our granite.
So, depressed and looking for a new faucet - I come across faucet shank extensions. Has anyone ever used faucet shank extensions? Where do I buy them? Do they leak? Why didn't the plumber tell us about them? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Depending on the brand of faucet you have, the big-box stores might carry the shank extentions you need. Properly installed, the shank should not be a leak problem. You may find, though, that with the extension installed the counter is not thick enough without spacers (usually plywood or the like) placed between the underside of the counter and the securing nut. |
- Posted by ramona1976 (My Page) on Tue, Aug 3, 10 at 16:24
Has anyone ever used faucet shank extensions? Yes, I used them in my last kitchen. Where do I buy them? Wherever you bought the faucet should have them. Home Depot has them, as well as the usual online sources, such as efaucets and plumbersurplus. Do they leak? Why didn't the plumber tell us about them? It's possible that he realized that they would not fit, but my guess would be that the plumber didn't like the quality of the original faucet that you purchased. My experience with plumbers is that they would like to install products that they trust, so that they don't get called back to fix it later. Can't blame them for that, and as the end user I would want something that the plumber recommended and would stand behind. |
What your plumber is saying may be true, however, this type of faucet connects to the water supply at the bottom of the valve body and have a side connection to the spout. I would ask if the valve is penetrating both the rough top and the counter top or just the counter top. If both, would removing an area of the rough top, leaving only the counter top penetration, cure the problem. Usually when a stem extension is necessary, there can be a problem with the faucet trim. |

Editors' Top PicksSee All
G-Form started out making high-tech protective gear for sports and outdoor enthusiasts, including knee and elbow pads. The same concepts behind protecting the human body, the thinking goes, would also work wonders for protecting delicate electronics, such as laptops and tablets. The company now has a line of sleeves and cases for tech gear, including the $79 Extreme Sleeve for laptops, available in 11-, 13-, and 15-inch sizes (we tested the 13-inch version).
While not promoted as being specifically designed for MacBooks, the company's promotional materials invariably show an Apple logo peeking out from the sleeve, and our 13-inch aluminum MacBook Pro fit inside snugly (a MacBook Air would be a loose fit).
The idea behind the thick, rubberized case, with a crisscrossed pattern on each side, is to not only cushion the laptop, but also absorb the force of any impact. To do so effectively, of course, requires more than just simple foam. G-Form says its cases are made from a material called Poron XRD, which is in turn described by its manufacturer as working like so: "When stressed at a high rate or impacted quickly...the material reaches the point when the urethane momentarily 'freezes'--like water freezing into ice." Essentially, the material these cases are made out of stiffens on impact to absorb the energy, instead of transferring it to your laptop.

Tonight I was opening my back door to bring my dogs in and I saw a black spider run in my house in the corner of my eye. I was pretty sure that is was a black widow when I saw it. I ran upstairs to grab my broom but, when I got back I could not find the dang thing. I carefully looked around a little bit then I gave up. I was freaking out that have have a black widow loose in my house somewhere with my 18 month old sleeping upstairs. But just my luck about 10 min later I saw her crawling up the door. I got my broom and whacked it. I killed it and checked for the red hourglass and sure enough it was a black widow. I need to get a bug guy out here soon!!!! I was wondering what seems to be the average rate for a spray?

BWAHAHAHAHA Oh you guys kill me! LOLOL No, I'm serious. Match socks to shoes? Match socks to slacks? Match socks to shirt? All I can find is that men need to match socks to shoes & the shoes need to match the belt. Sorry to waste anyone's time. Thanks anyhow. I'll just stop in at Macy's or Dillard's then. I'm sure there will be someone there knowledgeable & willing to help. |
- Posted by michelle_phxaz (My Page) on Sun, Jan 16, 11 at 17:43
Libby, if your question is sincere I apologize, we have so many spammers and bogus posts here I jumped the gun. I only wear three colors of socks: white, tan, and black. If you are wearing white tennis shoes, only white socks, no matter what else you are wearing. Black tennis shoes, black socks. If I wear a dressier shoe, like Borns or other dressy "comfortable" shoe, they are usually a brown or tan, so I wear the brown socks. The socks should match the shoes, not anything else, although you should match the shoes to your outfit anyway. Black polo and jeans? Black shoes and socks. White tee and shorts? White shoes and white ankle socks. Multi colored shirt? Any, but go with the shade of the multi colors, if it is dark, go with the black, light, go with brown, pale colors, go with white. Bottom line, match the socks to the shoes. Again, sorry for the comments, but I hope that by taking time to answer helps you with your question. -Michelle |

I just don't understand why people are willing to 'attack' someone who asks a question and does not include a link to selling something. Meaning, my post was obviously not spam. And as for bogus posts, I don't know what you mean. I guess I haven't seen the likeness of such. |

Glad to see you back, Libby! Are your feet a fashion statement now??? ;-) We recently had some bogus posts removed, they are posts where the first question is about a particular item like shoes, purses, or jewelry, and have no link. Then a "different" poster comes in to save the day with a link to their website with just the items the original poster was looking for. It is a setup that helps the spammer's posts stay alive for a while. The nature of the beast, I guess. |

Oh no, I'm having trouble finding the right socks. I like them with cushion, though not boot thickness, & at the ankle. I also want solid color. All I can seem to find is thin dress-like socks, mostly no-show, or all sorts of designs/patterns. I've looked at Target, Kohl's, WalMart, Marshall's & TJ Maxx. I've temporarily given up. That's very interesting about the posts & spammers. I'm a sporadic poster on GW & THS. And I 'recently' made a new account. My old one was from maybe 7 yrs back. So I guess I never noticed what you're referring to. |

WASHINGTON (CNN) - A ranking senator said Tuesday the Pentagon has agreed to drop a program that would have had investors using futures market analysis to predict the likelihood of assassinations and terrorist attacks.
Senate Armed Services Committee Chairman John Warner, R-Va., said, "We're going to recommend to the Secretary of Defense not to use such funds as he has available ... to implement the initial stages of this program," which was supposed to start Friday.
The Pentagon's Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) had planned to set up a system called the Futures Markets Applied to Prediction (FutureMAP), which would have involved investors betting small amounts of money that a particular event would happen.
Under the plan, traders would buy and sell futures contracts on specific events such as terrorist attacks, based on whether they believed they would happen.
It has been part of the Total Information Awareness program under retired Adm. John Poindexter, a prominent figure in the Iran-Contra scandal during the Reagan administration.
Warner, at a nomination hearing, said, "I just got off the phone with the head of DARPA, and we mutually agreed that this thing should be stopped," Warner said at a hearing on the nominations of retired Gen. Peter Schoomaker as Army chief of staff and Lt. Gen. Bryan Brown as commander of the U.S. Special Operations Command.
At the same hearing, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, D-N.Y., said the system "would be a futures market on death, and not in keeping with our values."
Other lawmakers had already weighed in before Warner addressed the program.
Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle, speaking on the Senate floor Tuesday, said, "I couldn't believe that we would actually commit $8 million to create a Web site that would encourage investors to bet on futures involving terrorist attacks and public assassinations. ... I can't believe that anybody would seriously propose that we trade in death. ... How long would it be before you saw traders investing in a way that would bring about the desired result?"
Monday, Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., said, "The idea of a federal betting parlor on atrocities and terrorism is ridiculous and it's grotesque."
Sen. Byron Dorgan, D-N.D., called the idea "stupid," and the ranking Democrat on the Armed Services Committee, Sen. Carl Levin of Michigan, said that as reports surfaced about the plan, "our first reaction was that it was a hoax."
Wyden and Dorgan brought the proposal to public attention Monday and called for its termination.
But Warner, in an exchange with Levin during the hearing, said, "There's been no effort whatsoever to make it secret. The program is modeled after a successful program, utilized by one of the nation's foremost think tanks, which while not directed toward terrorism, are directed toward analysis of other contingencies in the future, and in the community's been perceived as a fairly successful program."
In a written statement, DARPA said FutureMAP "is exploring new ways to help analysts predict and thereby prevent the use of futures market mechanisms."
DARPA had acknowledged the program faced "a number of major technical challenges and uncertainties. Chief among these are: Can the market survive and will people continue to participate when U.S. authorities use it to prevent terrorist attacks? Can futures markets be manipulated by adversaries?"

So I have done some Internet research and read some PDFs for afgani agricultural, a 1908 book written by south African dept of agriculture and a couple miscellaneous sources of info including some older threads from this website as well. Nothing has a lot of information about truncheons and each source varies in some of the details. So...
Does anyone here have experience propagating mulberries or other trees by truncheons? For those who don't know what a truncheon is, it is a long thick cutting, between a few inches in diameter to 12 inches. With lengths of 1 ft to 3 ft or longer. Usually the truncheon is denuded of foliage and branches. Basically is a freshly cut log tossed in the ground and kept wet until it sprouts. I have started doing this with mulberries, but experimenting with different thickness, lengths and and levels of foliage. First thing I noticed is thicker and more bare truncheons do best, but I want to hear what others have experienced because I have to do about 1500 of these to grow my hedge and want to have the greatest success rate possible. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Scotlfs, I found your post very interesting and had hoped that you'd get some responses. Since no one seemed to have any info here, may I suggest that you try in the Trees Forum. I don't know if you will get any response there either, but I'd be interested in reading it, if you did. There are a couple of regulars there that I suspect might have something to add. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Trees Forum
Hi Scotlfs, I live in Solebury PA. I want to propagate a mulberry tree by truncheons. I was looking for info about the timing and how and I saw your post. Would you share your experience with me? Is August the right time or I should wait for the fall? Thanks. Suzan |

The RFID tagging of apparel is now the largest and fastest growing application of RFID in retailing, the retail supply chain and associated industries. About 100 organizations are tagging apparel in trials and rollouts. Just two - taken together - will buy 500 million tags yearly. According to new IDTechEx analysis, the systems and tag business concerned with apparel RFID will grow at double the rate of the overall RFID market through the next ten years.
This new IDTechEx report "Apparel RFID 2013-2023" has detailed sector analysis and ten year forecasts. It gives numbers, unit prices and total market values for retail/ retail supply chain and separately for laundry/ rented apparel for the next ten years. It looks at the contest between proprietary and EPC systems, the 2010 Wal-Mart initiative and the companies that are ahead of it, with consideration of technology, regional and other trends. For example, the merging of retail and laundry tag technology and the frequency issues are considered. In this report, there are a remarkable 112 case studies of users of apparel RFID and what they are doing right and wrong. You do not just catch up with the subject, you keep ahead.
A full glossary of terminology is supplied and there is consideration of standards and interested trade organisations, including EPCglobal. Uniquely in this report you have the ten year forecasts, lessons of success and failure and comprehensive profiles of leading players. There is a detailed explanation of the market, the technology and the many paybacks as well as what comes next.

What A Woman's Stuffed Animals Say About Her
By Denise Ngo
Guys: The next time a woman invites you to her apartment, scope out her living space for stuffed animals. They're more common than you might think. And if you do happen to glimpse a teddy bear, a Hello Kitty or, worse, a collection of porcelain dolls, you may want to keep in mind what it could mean about her dating habits.
Classic teddy bear: She's an old-fashioned, down-to-earth, refined woman who not only enjoys the great outdoors, but will probably win over your mom. Top 10 Ways To Make His Family Love You
Build-A-Bear toy: From outside its big glass windows, Build-A-Bear stores look like your average DIY toy stores, but what unsuspecting customers don't know is that the staff will make you twirl around and kiss a fabric heart before sewing it into your creation. Clearly, a woman who owns a Build-A-Bear doll doesn't shy away from child-like activities, or she had an old boyfriend who wasn't afraid to embarrass himself for her. Consider the bar raised.
Raggedy old stuffed animal: Aw, she's probably had that floppy-eared stuffed bunny since babyhood. You've got a sentimental, tender-hearted girl on your hands. Wine and dine this one—she's probably the type who journals daily and keeps movie tickets. She may also be the type who keeps romantic tokens from old boyfriends.
Gigantic giraffe, hamster or bear: An ex probably won (or purchased) that life-sized carnival toy for her. Most women throw away such large reminders of the past, but if she keeps hers on full display, she may be high-maintenance, demanding or hard to please. 10 Phrases Your Boyfriend Doesn't Want To Hear
Unicorns, ponies or anything from Sanrio: She might not always show it, but she's got a girly-girl side. If things work out between the two of you, she'll probably call you by a cutesy nickname or send "I miss you" texts throughout the day. Don't get too frightened, though—girls who love Hello Kitty usually know how to make a good batch of cupcakes.

We have reiterated our Neutral recommendation on Janus Capital Group Inc. ( JNS ) based on the company's better expense management and healthy capital position. However, declining performance fees is a matter of concern. The early retirement of debt strengthened the balance sheet, which paved the way for Janus Capital's Board of Directors to increase the regular quarterly cash dividend by 20% in the first quarter of 2012. Such actions would boost investors' confidence in the company. Janus Capital has been striving hard to strengthen its businesses. The company is currently focused on enhancing its fixed income business including trading and investment. It ended 2011 with more than $20 billion in fixed income AUM for the first time in the history of the company. We expect these measures to aid its top-line expansion in the upcoming quarters. Janus Capital continues to improve its operating leverage by enhancing its organic growth in addition to focusing on reducing expenses and strengthening both fixed and discretionary cost savings. We expect the company's strategy of achieving growth with operating leverage to boost both the top and bottom-line results and provide a greater foundation to the company's operations in the future. On the flip side, majority of the company's total assets are in equities, which makes it more vulnerable to the volatilities of the equity market. The performance of fundamental equity funds has been volatile over the past few quarters due to fluctuation in sales, as well as overall redemptions. Moreover, outflows increased significantly to $1.9 billion during the first quarter of 2012 compared with $0.5 billion in the previous year, primarily driven by underperformance of fundamental equity and lower demand for active equity strategies. These outflows will affect the company's financials through lower performance fees, thereby hampering overall growth. Nevertheless, given its healthy balance sheet and dividend increment, we believe Janus has the potential to outperform its peer group in the long run. The risk-reward profile of Janus Capital is currently balanced and hence, we have reiterated our Neutral recommendation on its shares. Janus Capital currently retains its Zacks #3 Rank, which translates into a short-term Hold rating. The company's peer - Cohen & Steers Inc. ( CNS ) also retains a Zacks #3 Rank.

I think it's the juxtaposition between the sheen on the modern car and the rather desolate and (street furniture aside) much older urban background that makes this image stand out.

i so look forward to the day i own a black 911
stunning capture - the beauty of the car works great in the impressive surroundings.
reminds me of the day my father bought his black 911 from a seller in similar looking location back in about 1979 - age 4 i was unfortunatly too young to drive it

– Adopted September 30, 2003
revised, 2005
Materials Collection Policy
Middletown Public Library's objective is to supply currently useful materials to aid individuals in the pursuit of education, information, and creative use of leisure time.
The library strives to provide an array of ideas and information to enable patrons to make decisions and choices for themselves. The goal is to supply a balanced general collection to patrons of all ages, therefore the presence of an item in the library does not indicate the staff's or board's endorsement of its context.
The library strives to insure equal access to materials and services for all. However, librarians acknowledge the impossibility of building totally comprehensive collections and recognize the need for determining which materials should be available on site and which may be obtained through Interlibrary loan.
Materials selections is done by the library director and any qualified librarian appointed by the director. Materials selected in this manner stand as approved by the library board. Selection will adhere to the following criteria:
- Permanent value
- Accuracy of information
- Readability
- Social significance
- Importance of the subject matter to the collection
- Exclusion of sensational or pornographic
- Inclusion of both sides of controversial issues
- Supply the general interest needs of the community, balancing special interest with general demand.
- Maintain a representative selection of books for the main Dewey classification. Include appropriate depth of coverage to suit the majority of patrons.
- Video selection shall not be in competition with the many local rental outlets. The video collection shall emphasize educational and classical materials for both adults and children.
- Various media choices are made in relation to available space for each format.
- To preserve local history, the Middletown Press and Journal shall be microfilmed annually.
- Use of professionally established book selection tools.
The library accepts gifts without commitment as to their final disposition or sold at the book sale. Gifts must meet the same criteria as purchased materials.
The collection is evaluated area by area on a regular basis. Weeding is an ongoing process and materials that are obsolete, infrequently used or in poor condition are withdrawn. The collection shall be maintained between 26,000 and 28,000 items.
The library adheres to the Library Bill of Rights and the Freedom to Read documents attached to this policy. The library affirms confidentiality of records.
There may be times when specific collection development choices are challenged or questioned by the public. If a patron chooses to fill out the form, "Citizen's Request for Reconsideration of a Book" (attached)
There is a requested reference area for TMI accident materials and rare Middletown history. There shall be no other closed stack area without amending this policy.
– Adopted January 3, 1995
Meeting Room Policy
Middletown Public Library currently has several informal meeting areas that we offer for public use for the purpose of presenting educational, cultural, or business programs and workshops or for conducting business or civic meetings. Individuals as well as nonprofit and for-profit organizations may request use of the meeting areas.
- The Library provides meeting space as a public service but does not endorse the view or opinions of groups using these facilities.
- Programs and meetings held in the library must be open to the public at large, subject to the health and safety requirements of the Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry for public gatherings.
- A schedule of meeting room bookings is posted at the Circulation desk and is available upon request.

- Reading area maximum occupancy 10
Meeting Room Fees and Sales in a Meeting Room:
Use of Library's meeting areas is free of charge as long as the meetings or programs are open to the public, are free of charge, and do not directly generate revenue or promote specific services or organizations that may result in revenue.
Organizations or individuals using the meeting areas for the purpose of directly or indirectly generating revenue will be charged a fee of $40.00 per hour per area.
Revenue is defined as proceeds from sales, admission, or attendance fees or tuition by an individual, or a nonprofit, for-profit, or government organization or agency. This includes "free" educational programs which specifically promote a product or service that may generate future revenues for the presenter.
An exception is made for fundraising endeavors held for the benefit of the library. An organization or individual wishing to charge a fee or to sell items or services for the benefit of the library must obtain written permission from the Director before such an event occurs.
No reservation is final until payment is received.
Scheduling a Meeting Room:
- Meeting room areas may be reserved by Dauphin County residents over 18 years of age who have a Middletown Public Library account that is in good standing.
- Applicants must submit the Library's request form to the Library Director for each booking period. Booking periods are January through June and July through December.
- Meetings may be scheduled up to four months in advance. Applications may be submitted one month before or anytime during the booking period.
- An individual or organization may book no more than four (4) meetings/programs per month.
- The Library will contact the applicant within 10 workdays of receipt of the application to confirm or deny the request.
- In the event that a meeting is cancelled, the Library must be notified as soon as possible so that the space may be made available to others. If the group or individual wishes to change the assigned area, they must request a change from staff.
- The Library reserves the right to schedule and alter room assignments according to the Library's needs. If the library cancels or changes the use of a meeting room, Library staff will notify the group or individual as soon as possible.
Eligible Meeting Room Users:
In general, groups are prioritized in the following order when there are conflicting requests for rooms:
- Library and Friends of the Library Programs—which involve efforts of the library staff.
- Local Government Meetings/Programs—official meetings or programs of the Commonwealth, Dauphin County or Municipal government agencies or departments.
- Programs of an Educational, Cultural, Civic, or Social Organization—prepared for the public.
- Activities of Profit-Making Organizations/Businesses including classes, workshops, and meetings held with the intention of generating revenue for their own organization/business.
Furniture Arrangement:
The Library has a limited number of tables and chairs available. Each booking organization must handle its own setup and may arrange furnishings as needed, as long as the furnishings are not at a risk of damage. Walls may not be used for mounting or hanging pictures, displays, posters, etc.
Equipment, materials, or furniture belonging to any group cannot be stored in the Library buildings.
Audiovisual Equipment:
The library does not maintain audiovisual equipment. Booking agencies that wish to bring AV equipment to the Library should check that there are adequate electrical outlets and/or data lines
Meeting Hours:
Programs or meetings must be held during hours that the Library is open to the public. The group or individual must clean up and vacate the meeting area by the Library's closing time. Only Library staff, and the Library Board or Friends may use the Library outside of regular hours. A staff member must be in the building for such exceptions.
Cleanup and Damage:
The sponsoring group or individual making application for use of the facilities assumes all responsibility for damage to library property and for leaving the premises in the condition in which they were found, including the arrangement of furnishings and the cleanup of trash. A minimum $ 30.00 fee will be assessed for excessive cleanup if a room is not vacated by the scheduled time. Damage to the facility will be billed to the group or individual responsible for the room and could result in the restriction from further use.
Smoking and Alcoholic Beverages:
Smoking is not permitted anywhere in the Library, and consumption of alcoholic beverages is not permitted in or on Library property.
Questions and Appeals:
Disputes regarding this meeting-room policy and established procedures will be resolved by the Director. In the event the applicant wishes to appeal the Director's decision or a denial of application, the applicant may file a written request to the Library Board of Directors within fourteen (14) days.
The Middletown Public Library Board of Directors shall be the final authority in granting or refusing permission for the use of Library facilities.
– revised 7/1/05
Exam Proctoring Policy
The proctoring of written (open or closed book), emailed, or online examinations is a service offered by the Middletown Public Library to the public. The library will offer proctoring services based on the availability of personnel, facilities and technology to do so.
There is a fee of $15 for each exam proctored. All fees are payable just prior to taking the exam. The library accepts cash and personal checks. If the exam requires more than one day to complete, $15 will be charged for each day. If there are several exams to be taken in one day, $15 will be charged for each exam.
The Library reserves the right to charge a $15 cancellation fee if less than 24 hours notice is given by the student, or upon multiple cancellations by the student.
It is the student's responsibility to contact the library and make an appointment for proctoring. Tests must be scheduled with the proctor a minimum of 7 days in advance. Unscheduled requests for proctoring or walk-ins cannot be accommodated. Tests will be scheduled during the proctor's regular work hours, as allowed by her schedule.
Students should arrive promptly at the agreed-upon time, prepared with the items required for taking the test. These may include picture I.D., money, pens/pencils, or calculator. If the test is computerized, you may bring your own or use one provided by the Library.
The Library will provide space to take the exam, and, if necessary, a public access computer for online exams.
The student will allow sufficient time to take the examination before the deadline established by the institution. Get in touch with the proctor by email or phone prior to your test to make sure the test or login information has arrived. The proctor does not contact you when the exam arrives.
The student must contact the institution to ensure that the examination and other required exam materials are sent to the Library proctor. The institution may have specific requirements for proctoring. The student should check with the proctor to make sure the Library can meet all of the requirements.
Prior contact between the testing institution and the proctor is required so that credibility and testing requirements can be verified.
The student will be required to present a valid picture I.D. at the time of the exam.
Proctors will remain in the vicinity of the student during the exam, while attending to library related duties. The Library does not guarantee that a quiet study room or constant supervision of the student will be provided.
Proctors will enforce any time limits that are placed on the exam, as well as other rules set forth in the examination materials. The use of cell phones or visiting with others is prohibited. Any perceived violation of the posted rules for the exam will be reported to the educational institution.
Librarians will not sign a proctoring verification that attests to more than the staff member has been able to do.
Middletown Public Library will provide a public access computer for online exams. The computer will have Microsoft Work and Internet access. Tests offered in a computer format must be compatible with the hardware and software available on the Library workstation. Online tests which require the installation of software on the library's computers cannot be proctored. It is the student's responsibility to ensure that the library's computing resources are adequate for their test taking requirements. The student may provide their own laptop for online exams. The Library cannot guarantee that technical problems will not occur during online exams. The Library will not be responsible for tests that are interrupted by Library emergencies, power failures, computer hardware or software failures, or loss of Internet connection.
The Library reserves the right to cancel the date of any proctor test due to inclement weather, computer malfunctions and the like. The test will be rescheduled.
Completed written exams are returned directly to the testing institution by fax or USPS mail at the student's expense. Middletown Public Library is not responsible for exams once they have been mailed back to the educational institution. Librarians will not grade examinations.
Exams not taken by the date on which they were to be completed are either shredded or returned.
