"question": "Question: What can I expect in a therapy session?",
"answer": "Answer: Every therapy session is unique to each individual and their specific goals. It is common to schedule weekly sessions, where each session lasts about 45 minutes. Therapy can be short-term, focusing on a specific issue or longer-term, addressing more complex issues or ongoing personal growth. During therapy sessions it is standard to talk about the primary issues and concerns in your life. There may be times when you are asked to take certain actions outside of the therapy sessions, such as reading a relevant book or keeping records to track certain behaviors. For therapy to be most effective you must be an active participant, both during and between the sessions. • If a client intends to harm himself or herself. The therapist will make every effort to enlist their cooperation in ensuring their safety. If they do not cooperate, further measures may be taken without their permission in order to ensure their safety."

"question": "What is this I hear about our recreational facilities?",
"answer": "The community center and aquatic center are at the end of their useful lives, and the costs of maintenance and repairs are becoming unsustainable. Instead of perpetuating the use of expensive Band-Aids to fix problems, the city council chose a proactive and thoughtful process to explore several possible solutions. Remember, the pool is more than 30-years-old and sections of the community center are more than 100-years-old!"
},
{
"question": "What’s wrong with the current facilities?",
"answer": "We’ve gotten a lot of use out of these facilities, but constant, expensive and unbudgeted repairs to their systems and structures continue to increase. Additionally, neither facility meets Federal ADA requirements or current life-safety and building code requirements. To achieve compliance in these areas, many of the needed updates trigger a cascade of repairs to other outdated systems, which increases costs and makes updates more difficult and expensive. It is also useful to know the current community center was not built for use as a community center, and its layout was not designed or intended for its current use. Another issue is the community center is situated in the floodplain, so the basement is below the water table and regularly floods."
},
{
"question": "Can’t we update our current facilities?",
"answer": "Absolutely — that is an option. We have a good understanding of what updating our current facilities would cost. In 2014, Larkin Aquatics did a comprehensive study of the aquatic center, including mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and ADA requirements. That detailed report indicated needed updates to the aquatic center will range between $600,000 – $900,000 plus an eventual $3,500,000 to replace the basin. At the same time, the city hired Susan Richards Johnson and Associates to complete a similar comprehensive analysis of the community center. That analysis provided detailed solutions addressing the continued use of the existing facility with costs ranging from $6,000,000 — $10,000,000."
},
{
"question": "So why are we talking about new facilities?",
"answer": "When contemplating the high costs of updating the existing facilities, it became financially prudent to ask, “What would a new facility cost?” There was also a stark realization that spending all that money to update our facilities would still leave the city with a 30-year-old pool and a 100-year-old community center. Firsthand experience dictates that in another 30 years it will probably be easier and less expensive to maintain a 30-year-old facility than to maintain 60-year-old and 130-year-old facilities. At that point, the concern quickly became that the cost of keeping the existing facilities, even if updated, might actually cost taxpayers more over the next 30-40 years than building something new that (1) meets the needs of our current and future community; (2) is more appropriately sized; and (3) uses current building codes, modern materials and modern systems. We needed more details to make an informed decision. A steering committee of Merriam residents was appointed to work with Pros Consulting to determine what a new facility would look like that appropriately meets the needs of the community. That process involves collecting public input via surveys and public meetings, and includes a market study, business plan, and a financial analysis. The final Facilities Master Plan will provide a clear understanding of what the community wants in a new facility, if a new facility is the desired option to address our facilities needs."
},
{
"question": "What will a new facility cost?",
"answer": "Currently unknown — we’re not there yet. A detailed cost estimate to build and annually operate a new facility will be included in the final Facilities Master Plan. That final plan will go before city council on January 9, 2017, and include a concept based on features and amenities residents said they want. However, the facility should be designed in scope and size to annually support itself at an appropriate level of funding."
},
{
"question": "What happens after the final Facilities Master Plan is presented to City Council on January 9, 2017?",
"answer": "On January 9, 2017, the city council will only vote to acknowledge receipt of the final plan and the recommendation of the steering committee. The city council’s acceptance of that recommendation and final plan will not bind the city council to any one specific choice, it only provides the required details needed to begin the larger conversation about the future of our recreation facilities."
},
{
"question": "When will a decision be made on the facilities?",
"answer": "As with all major capital projects, it is anticipated the preferred solution will be discussed in public meetings as part of the 5-year capital improvement project budget. These discussions will begin in March 2017."
},
{
"question": "How will the city pay for updated or new facilities?",
"answer": "Currently undetermined — we’re just not there yet. Depending on the preferred solution, the funding strategy would include budgeted reserves, the issuance of bonds, or a combination of the two options. More than likely, any solution exceeding $5 million will require issuing bonds."
},
{
"question": "Will there be a vote if bonds are included in the funding strategy?",
"answer": "If funding involves issuing bonds or raising property and/or sales taxes, a public vote is recommended (and likely required by law)."
},
{
"question": "Where can I get more information about this issue?",
"answer": "The next steering committee meeting will be on November 2, and a draft final plan will be shared with the city council on December 12th. The following day, on December 13 at 7 p.m., there will be an Parks Facilities Master Plan open house for the public at the Irene B. French Community Center. All information is posted on www.merriam.org as it becomes available. Also, this blog is dedicated to the project and is updated weekly with new posts."

{
"question": "What age is the Rodger Wireless Enuresis Alarm Intended For?",
"answer": "The Rodger bed wetting alarm is perfectly suited for use by children from the age of 5 (this being the age at which it is expected that a Child no longer wets the bed) through to and including Adulthood."
},
{
"question": "Is the Rodger Wireless Bed Wetting Alarm safe?",
"answer": "YES! - The Rodger Wireless Bedwetting Alarm transmitter uses a small 3v CR2032 button cell battery (like a key-fob battery) that supplies only a very low current and even if the transmitter does get moisture on it, will remain safe."
},
{
"question": "How does the alarm turn off?",
"answer": "The small transmitter attaches to the special pants via 2 press studs so that it is ready to detect urine. When the transmitter has been triggered by the moisture, the receiver will continue to sound until the transmitter has been removed from the wet underwear and the reset button on the receiver has been pressed. This switches the alarm off and also resets it again."
},
{
"question": "What kind of power does the Rodger Wireless Bedwetting Alarm use?",
"answer": "The battery in the transmitter is 1 x 3 volt (supplied). The power for the Receiver is either mains via UK Plug, or if preferred and especially useful for holidays i.e. camping, this can alternatively be powered by 2 x AAA batteries."
},
{
"question": "How are the Special Sensor Pants washed?",
"answer": "The underwear are fully re-useable, made from cotton and can be Machine Washed at 60 degrees and Tumble Dried."
},
{
"question": "How long does treatment take with The Rodger Wireless Bedwetting System?",
"answer": "Typically treatment takes 3 to 6 weeks, but as with the treatment of any condition there is a great deal of variability. e.g., some children will respond and be finished with treatment within a week, a larger group take 3-6 weeks and a small group takes longer."
},
{
"question": "Is The Rodger Wireless Bed Wetting Alarm suitable for use by a deaf or hard of hearing child?",
"answer": "YES! - For children who are deaf or hard of hearing, a vibration cushion is available to order - please call us if you wish to discuss or order this accessory. The Underpants are not as sensitive as they were originally. One has stopped sensing moisture completely - although the alarm works fine."
},
{
"question": "What is wrong?",
"answer": "Remove briefs from solution and launder and dry. Do Not Wring Dry. Remove transmitter from briefs. Machine wash briefs in warm water. Do not use fabric softener. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry. DO NOT WRING. DO NOT WASH TRANSMITTER. Wipe transmitter clean with damp cloth and air dry."
},
{
"question": "I live outside the UK & Ireland - Can I still Purchase The Rodger Alarm From You?",
"answer": "We are also able to supply the Rodger Alarm unit to some overseas customers, please check the drop-list at checkout of available countries, but it must be noted that as we are the UK supplier the alarm will come with the UK plug version, but the alarm can be used either with an adapter suitable for use in your country or batteries. Customers outside of these countries please send us an email telling us which country you live in, we will then forward your enquiry to your nearest supplier. Due to the sensitive nature of the product, I have to be certain that all my customers feel confident that the product they are purchasing is brand new, and could never possibly have been used, which I am sure you will agree, is very important. If you thought for one minute that the alarm you were purchasing may have been used by someone else, I feel certain that you would not purchase it.... I know I certainly wouldn't! What I can do under these circumstances, is offer to refund you for the unused Receiver and Transmitter only. ie. You can return just the Receiver and Transmitter within 7 days of receipt unused and complete with the box and instructions, but you would need to keep the pants. We would then refund you the cost of the set minus the cost of 2 pairs of pants upon the safe return of the Receiver and Transmitter. Postage costs would be bourne by the customer. The above condition regarding the return of the underwear is non-negotiable, so please do not ask for 'special consideration' as refusal often offends. (which country they are from, which ISP they are using, etc)."

"question": "How often should I remove my artificial eye?",
"answer": "A. We recommend that the artificial eye not be removed unless absolutely necessary, i.e. to remove an eye lash or grit. Frequent removal may cause irritation and increased discharge."
},
{
"question": "Can I wear my prosthetic eye while swimming?",
"answer": "A. Yes, chlorine or salt water will not harm your prosthesis. Precaution should be taken, however, as an artificial eye will not float! We recommend goggles be worn while swimming."
},
{
"question": "How long will an artificial eye last?",
"answer": "A. A prosthetic eye has a life span of four to seven years for an adult and should be evaluated yearly. For children, a prosthetic eye may last two to five years but should be evaluated more frequently to make adjustments for their growth patterns."
},
{
"question": "What is the difference between a full ocular prosthesis and a scleral shell?",
"answer": "A. A scleral shell usually covers a blind shrunken globe and is very thin and fragile. A full ocular prosthesis is typically required when the eye socket has been enucleated or eviscerated. A full prosthesis is thicker than a scleral shell."

{
"question": "without a recommendation by the adviser?",
"answer": "As background, there are three ways that a participant can make a decision to take a distribution and roll over into an IRA. The first is “unsolicited.” In other words, the participant made the decision without any input from an adviser or recordkeeper. The second is “educated.” Distribution education involves providing a participant with information about the participant’s alternatives and the important considerations for selecting among the alternatives. The information must be unbiased and substantially complete. It cannot provide guidance to a participant to make a particular decision. The third way is “recommendation.” In the case of a recommendation, the adviser must engage in a prudent process to evaluate the relevant factors and to reach a reasoned recommendation in the best interest of the participant. In other words, fiduciary status is tied to a recommendation by an adviser. Absent an adviser recommendation, a decision made by a participant is not regulated by the fiduciary and prohibited transaction rules."

"question": "PhotoMed’s team wondered, does the body need one, two, or a sequence of different wavelengths to resume homeostasis?",
"answer": "Only the Vari-Chrome® Pro varies the wavelength during therapy. The operator of the Vari-Chrome® Pro receives feedback in real-time that can be recorded by the Instant Feedback System™. It’s the batting average that counts."
},
{
"question": "What disorder did they have?",
"answer": "Poorly controlled diabetes and its complications of pain and neuropathy. The test therapy was choreographed by computer to ensure that everyone received the same wavelengths distributed in time over 5 visits. Feedback was NOT used to adjust the therapy. No red or IR was applied. The study asked questions electronically. The technician had to record the volunteer’s answer to each question before advancing to the next step. The statistician was surprised by the complete data set with no missing data. The statistician pointed out that about 1/3 these real-world people took opioid medications for their pain. Some were taking a dozen or more different medications each day."
},
{
"question": "He asked if the team had any idea how the study might turn out?",
"answer": "He was surprised by the answer, no, this is science as practiced by other industries. PhotoMed’s team was surprised by the statistical outcomes. More that 50% of participants reported a 50% or greater reduction in their pain. The team had its answer. Red is not necessary to achieve relief for at least some people with poorly controlled diabetes, pain, and neuropathy."
},
{
"question": "Which wavelengths would you like to try?",
"answer": "The Vari-Chrome® Pro provides operators with the visible spectrum with no missing wavelengths (430-470nm)."

{
"question": "Are any alternatives to the standard divorce process available in Texas?",
"answer": "The majority of divorce cases are settled without the need for a final trial through mediation or informal attorney negotiations. The collaborative approach to divorce involves the spouses and their attorneys attempting to reach a settlement without court involvement. This approach is private with the goal of minimizing the difficulties normally associated with divorce. A divorce is described as agreed or uncontested when the spouses agree to resolve all of the significant issues of the divorce without heavy involvement from the attorneys or the court. An attorney’s role is typically limited to preparing the minimum required documents to make the divorce final. This alternative is ideal when the spouses are in agreement regarding division of property/debts and custody of the children, because it reduces the financial and emotional expense of the process."
},
{
"question": "Where do I have to file my divorce?",
"answer": "A spouse may only file for divorce in Texas if one of the spouses has been domiciled in Texas for at least six months before filing. At least one spouse must be a resident of the county in which the divorce is filed for at least 90 days before filing."
},
{
"question": "My spouse filed for divorce before me, is this relevant?",
"answer": "Many lawyers have differing opinions about the benefits of filing a divorce suit first. Ordinarily, a spouse does not gain any huge advantage by filing a divorce suit before the other spouse. However, if one spouse has been physically abused, he or she is encouraged to file for divorce first to build credibility to the allegations of abuse. The length required to finish any legal matter can vary. A divorce can be made final 60 days after filing the original petition for divorce, assuming that the final decree has been completed in that time. In some cases involving highly contested issues, it can take significantly longer than 60 days. The 60-day period is required to allow the parties to change their minds if they do not wish to proceed with the divorce, and to resolve any differences regarding property division and child custody before the divorce is final."
},
{
"question": "What information does my lawyer need to evaluate my case?",
"answer": "Although the information a family attorney may need to evaluate your case will vary, you should definitely be prepared to discuss the property and debts involved, your child custody, possession, and support goals, your spouses’ position regarding the issues of the divorce, and whether there has been any history of family violence during the marriage."
},
{
"question": "Why does a divorce attorney require an up front retainer before working on my case?",
"answer": "Our firm requires that clients submit an initial retainer before work commences to ensure payment for the legal services and expenses. Your attorney will determine the amount of the initial retainer based on the amount of work the attorney predicts will be necessary to perform a large portion of the work required to begin your case based on the hourly rate. If the initial retainer runs out, your attorney will require you to replenish the retainer to continue working on your case."

"question": "Has Proposition 65 been successful in protecting consumers from toxic chemicals?",
"answer": "Proposition 65 provides that the Legislature may amend the law by a two-thirds vote and only \"to further its purposes.\" The most recent list can be found here: http://www.oehha.ca.gov/prop65/prop65_list/files/P65single062212.pdf. Clear and reasonable warnings: A business is required to warn a person before \"knowingly and intentionally\" exposing that person to a listed chemical. A business must be aware that it is causing an exposure, and the exposure must result from a deliberate act, like the sale of a product. There is no requirement that a business is aware that the exposure violates the law, or intends to violate the law or cause harm. The warning given must be \"clear and reasonable\" and must effectively reach the person before exposure. Warning requirements take effect 12 months after the date that a chemical is added to the Proposition 65 list. A business need not use the \"safe harbor warning,\" and can provide an alternative warning as long as it is \"clear and reasonable\" under the statute. Prohibition on discharges into drinking water: A business must not knowingly discharge or release a listed chemical into drinking water, or onto or into land where it passes or probably will pass into a source of drinking water. This prohibition takes effect 20 months after the date that a chemical is added to the Proposition 65 list. Governmental agencies and public water utilities: All federal, state and local government agencies, as well as entities operating public water systems, are exempt. Businesses with nine or fewer employees. Exposures that pose no significant risk of cancer: A warning about listed chemicals known to cause cancer (\"carcinogens\") is not required if the business can demonstrate that the exposure occurs at a level that poses \"no significant risk.\" This means the exposure is calculated to result in not more than one excess case of cancer in 100,000 individuals exposed over a 70-year lifetime. The Proposition 65 regulations identify \"no significant risk\" levels for certain carcinogens. The most recent list of no significant risk levels can be found here: http://www.oehha.ca.gov/prop65/getNSRLs.html. Exposures that will produce no observable reproductive effect at 1,000 times the level in question: A warning is not required for chemicals known to the State to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm (\"reproductive toxicants\") if the business can demonstrate that the exposure will produce no observable effect, even at exposures 1,000 times the level in question. This is known as the \"maximum allowable dose level.\" In other words, the level of exposure must be below the \"no observable effect level (NOEL),\" divided by 1,000, as required by the statute. The NOEL is the highest dose level that has not been associated with observable adverse reproductive or developmental effects. The most recent list of maximum allowable dose levels can be found here: http://www.oehha.ca.gov/prop65/getNSRLs.html. Exposures to listed chemicals that occur naturally in foods: Listed chemicals can occur naturally in certain foods, as an inherent part of the food's composition, because chemicals that occur naturally in the soil are taken up by food crops, or for other reasons. To avoid excessive warnings on common food items, OEHHA regulations allow an exemption for listed chemicals in food that a business proves to be \"naturally occurring\" and reduced to the \"lowest level currently feasible.\" The term \"naturally occurring\" is defined in specific and narrow terms in the regulations. (CA Code of Regulations, Title 27, Section 25501) These \"naturally occurring\" chemicals in food do not count toward the exposure under Proposition 65. Discharges that do not result in a \"significant amount\" of the listed chemical entering into any source of drinking water: There is an exemption for businesses that can demonstrate that the discharge will not cause a \"significant amount\" of the listed chemical to enter any drinking water source, and complies with all other applicable laws, regulations, permits, requirements, or orders. A \"significant amount\" is any detectable amount, unless the business can prove that the discharge does not exceed the \"no significant risk\" or \"maximum allowable dose\" levels. If a business is found to be in violation of Proposition 65, a court may order the business to stop committing the violation. The business is also subject to civil penalties of up to $2,500 per day for each violation. Proposition 65 is a \"right to know\" law based on the notion that members of the public have a right to know when they are being exposed to listed carcinogens or reproductive toxins. The law was designed to allow individual consumers and their families to decide for themselves whether to assume the chemical exposure risks of purchasing particular products or frequenting particular premises. A Proposition 65 warning informs a consumer that s/he is being exposed to carcinogens or reproductive toxins that exceed certain threshold levels. This is not the same as a regulatory decision that a product is \"safe\" or \"unsafe.\" A consumer can seek information about the actual levels of exposure from the business that produces the product or causes the exposure in order to decide whether to accept, avoid, or take measures to mitigate the exposure risk. Tenants should ask their landlords for information about a Proposition 65 warning in their apartment building. A fact sheet for tenants with common scenarios that prompt landlords to provide Proposition 65 warnings can be found here: http://www.oehha.ca.gov/prop65/background/P65ten.html. Yes. Proposition 65 has motivated businesses to eliminate or reduce toxic chemicals in numerous consumer products. Products that have been reformulated as a result of notices of violation or litigation include ceramic tableware, artificial turf, household faucets, children's jewelry, potato chips, candy, and vitamin supplements. Proposition 65 has also resulted in significant reductions in toxic air pollution – both outdoor (diesel school bus and grocery truck emissions) and indoor (salon worker exposures to formaldehyde, toxic solvents in nail products, and formaldehyde gas release from the building materials in portable classrooms). Proposition 65 has induced \"quiet compliance\" without the need for litigation, in which manufacturers voluntarily take steps to comply by providing their suppliers with specifications so that the ingredients in their products avoid or significantly limit exposure to listed chemicals. The law has also educated the general public about exposures to specific toxic chemicals in consumer products, buildings, and the environment, creating both demand and market reward for less-toxic products. Finally, Proposition 65 litigation has identified specific chemical exposure concerns and led to regulatory reforms to benefit public health at the state and national level. For example, the California Legislature adopted strict standards for lead in jewelry that were based on a Proposition 65 settlement over the failure to warn about lead in jewelry, and state and federal restrictions on lead in candy are based on the level established in a Proposition 65 case."
},
{
"question": "When will the Attorney General's Office file suit based on a notice from a private party?",
"answer": "First, you should check to see if chemicals in the product, or created through the use of the product, are on the Proposition 65 list. The current list can be found here: http://www.oehha.ca.gov/prop65/prop65_list/Newlist.html. Next, you should determine whether the manufacture or use of the product is likely to expose individuals to listed chemicals. If the product causes an exposure to a listed chemical, you should determine whether OEHHA has identified a regulatory safe harbor level for the chemical. The safe harbor levels, or levels of exposure that are exempt from the warning requirement, can be found here: http://www.oehha.ca.gov/prop65/getNSRLs.html. If you can show that the exposure you cause is below the regulatory safe harbor level, you need not provide a warning. If there is no regulatory safe harbor level for a listed chemical, a business that knowingly exposes individuals to that chemical is generally required to provide a Proposition 65 warning, unless the business shows that the exposure to a listed chemical falls below the threshold levels specified in Proposition 65 and its accompanying regulations, i.e., the \"no significant risk level\" and the \"maximum allowable dose level.\" Determining the threshold levels for a listed chemical and the exposure caused by the product is complex. It is recommended that any business that uses a listed chemical in its products, but believes the level of exposure does not exceed the applicable threshold(s) consult with a scientist who has experience in risk assessment. No. The requirement to provide a consumer warning applies regardless of whether a business is located in California or out-of-state, as long as its products cause exposures to individuals in California. It depends. The Proposition 65 warning requirements are independent of federal chemical use or composition standards. The warning requirements are tied to exposure levels from a product rather than the amount of the chemical that it contains. A product might be in compliance with a federal composition requirement because it contains no more than a certain percentage of lead, but not in compliance with Proposition 65 because it lacks a warning that consumers who use the product will be exposed to more than 0.5 micrograms of lead per day. Regardless of whether your product meets a federal use or composition standard, you need to conduct an exposure assessment to determine whether the level of a listed chemical leads to an exposure requiring a Proposition 65 warning. There is no inherent right to join a settlement between other parties. But a private settlement or a settlement with a public prosecutor will sometimes include an \"opt-in\" mechanism to allow qualifying entities to become parties to the agreement. In such cases, the settlement or another related public document will describe the requirements and process to opt in. More often, settlements do not include the option to opt in. Voluntary compliance with the terms of an existing settlement (e.g., providing specified warnings, or reformulating a product to the agreed-upon specifications) may or may not afford some protection against Proposition 65 litigation, or against penalties in the event of litigation. Yes. Businesses often reformulate products to remove a listed chemical, or to reduce its concentration so that any exposure is below the threshold. If a business does this, it does not need to provide a warning for the reformulated product. As a result of Proposition 65 litigation, manufacturers, including the makers of Mexican candy, artificial turf, and calcium supplements, have removed a listed chemical from a product, or greatly reduced its concentration. Yes. Warning text may differ from the \"safe harbor\" language, as long as it clearly warns people that they are being exposed to a chemical or chemicals that cause cancer or reproductive harm. You are allowed to add language to explain the warning and inform consumers about how to lessen or avoid the exposure. However, you are not allowed to include language that contradicts or dilutes the force of the warning. The Attorney General's Office cannot provide legal advice to private parties. A business that has been served with a 60-day notice should consider locating defense counsel to help evaluate the matter. Other prudent steps to take upon receiving a 60-day notice include: (1) promptly contact the noticing party to discuss the claim(s) of violation and obtain any testing or data the noticing party is willing to provide to evaluate whether the claim is justified (note: the plaintiff is not required to provide this information); (2) conduct laboratory product testing and/or obtain an exposure assessment to assess the validity of the plaintiff's claims; and (3) if you believe the claim may be valid, cease sale of the product, instruct retail customers to stop selling the product, recall the product, and/or provide proper warnings for the product. You can contact the private party who sent the notice of violation or their attorney to try and ascertain their basis for sending the notice, or to supply them with information to demonstrate there was no violation. They may request information in return, which you are not required to provide, however the informal exchange may facilitate a prompt resolution of the alleged violation. The \"release\" in a settlement agreement refers to one or more provisions that preclude certain individuals or entities from bringing another lawsuit over claims that have been released. Parties to a settlement must agree upon the scope of any release. An attorney may be able to help you determine what claims can and cannot be released. Plaintiff acting on its own behalf and in the public interest releases Defendant [and other specified entities] from all claims for violations of Proposition 65 up through the Effective Date based on exposure to [Covered Chemicals] from [Covered Products or Covered Facilities] as set forth in the Notice(s) of Violation. Compliance with the terms of this Consent Judgment constitutes compliance with Proposition 65 with respect to exposures to [Covered Products or Covered Facilities] as set forth in the Notice(s) of Violation. A private plaintiff is free to release whatever claims it deems appropriate on its own behalf. No. The determination of whether an exposure poses a significant risk or has an observable effect must be based on evidence and standards of comparable scientific validity to those that form the scientific basis for the listing of the chemical. The Attorney General decides whether to file suit on a case-by-case basis. Among the factors that are considered: the seriousness of the violation and whether it presents a risk to public health; how widespread the violation is; and whether the case presents new issues of law and/or science that should be resolved on a statewide basis."

{
"question": "In addition to paying a penalty, is it possible for a defendant to settle a case by making a payment to be used for an environmental purpose?",
"answer": "Private enforcers must provide the Attorney General's Office with copies of 60-day notices and supporting documents. In 1999, the Legislature adopted SB 1269, which modified Proposition 65 to require that any person who brings a private enforcement action must notify the Attorney General when the case is filed, and of its outcome. The bill also requires the Attorney General's Office to make this information available to the public. Private enforcers must also serve copies of 60-day notices and supporting documents on the Attorney General and can do so either with hard copies or electronically, through the Attorney General's website. No. However, you need to list the documents supporting each certificate of merit and identify the original notice that you submitted by its date, notice recipient, and AG Notice Number. Yes. The Attorney General's website includes a list of public prosecutors that accept electronic service of 60-day notices and instructions for electronic service that can be found here: http://ag.ca.gov/prop65/contacts.php. The Attorney General also accepts electronic service of 60-day notices: https://oag.ca.gov/prop65/add-60-day-notice. Yes. The reporting forms and instructions for filing are available on the Proposition 65 Home page. Although SB 1269 only applies to private enforcers, the Attorney General's Office makes complaints and settlements available to the public upon request, and posts frequently requested items to its website. The terms of any settlement must be submitted to the Attorney General's Office within a specified time period, even if the settlement is contingent on judicial approval. If the plaintiff has filed an action in court, the parties must submit the settlement to the court for approval. The only exception is if the plaintiff voluntarily dismisses the action with no consideration (injunctive relief and/or payment) from the defendant. Any penalty amount is reasonable. The plaintiff must produce evidence sufficient to support the above determinations and must serve all papers on the Attorney General at least 45 days prior to the hearing for judicial approval. The requirements for private party settlements can be found in CA Health and Safety Code, Section 25249.7(f) and CA Code of Regulations, Title 11, Section 3003. The Attorney General has set forth non-binding settlement guidelines at Title 11, Section 3200 et seq. No. All Proposition 65 settlements must be provided to the Attorney General and are posted on the Attorney General's website. Private parties must report Proposition 65 settlements to the Attorney General and submit supporting documents to the Attorney General at least 45 days prior to the date of the hearing of the motion for judicial approval. The Attorney General may appear and provide comment or objection without intervening in the settlement action. The parties shall notify the court that the fact that the Attorney General does not object to a settlement shall not be construed as an endorsement of or a concurrence in any settlement. In addition, the Attorney General has set non-binding guidelines on the review of private party settlements to assist the parties in fashioning settlements to which the Attorney General is not likely to object. (CA Code of Regulations, Title 11, Sections 3200-3204). Maybe. The Attorney General's guidelines recognize that the penalty amount may be \"offset\" by payments in lieu of a civil penalty, but these payments are required to meet certain criteria. In particular, funded activities must have a nexus to the basis for the litigation, and the recipient must be an accountable entity that can demonstrate how the funds will be spent. The Attorney General works to insure that money is not over-diverted from statutory penalties to payments in lieu of penalties, and to assure accountability in the use of payments in lieu of penalties."

"question": "The main question is: which media outlets influence the opinion-forming process?",
"answer": "In order to scan all relevant media, we included all traditional media types (Print, Radio, TV, and Online). MOM focuses on media with the highest reach, measured by audience / circulation share. The selection for the Monitor is based on recent media consumption surveys and audience research studies. For MOM we select media with socio-political and economic content that has impact on public opinion. Content should have a national focus; however, world-wide broadcasting news outlets are excluded, as they do not target the national audience specifically (e.g. Al Jazeera). Media with specific thematic focus (music, sport), social networks, search engines and advertisement are also excluded. MOM focuses on media with the highest reach, measured by audience share. The selection for the Monitor is usually based on recent media consumption surveys and audience research studies. But in Mongolia in-depth audience surveys are only available for the TV market, so we used this data compiled by the private company Maxima LLCC. For print media the circulation numbers compiled by the Press Institutes yearly report “Mongolian Media Today 2016” were used for ranking. For radio and online news media the same source was used this time based on PIM opinion polls on popularity and most used access to information. MOM was developed as a generic methodology which can be universally applied. Although media concentration trends are observable worldwide, implementation and analysis will first take place in developing countries. Besides, the Media Pluralism Monitor delivers complementary results for European member states. In the selection process, the country ranking in the World Press Freedom Index published by Reporters without Borders is the first important indicator for a problematic relation to media pluralism, media independence and transparency. A low ranking highlights which country being worth looking in depth into the risk of media ownership concentration. The political context is also a condition for a successful implementation: on the one hand civil society organizations such as our local partners need to be able to operate relatively freely. On the other hand, the media landscape needs to be open to a certain extent: in a country where the state exercises absolute control over media, media ownership research would be irrelevant. 10."
},
{
"question": "What are the limitations of MOM?",
"answer": "Audience data is not consistent: information on audience share is not standardized and there is no obligation to publish those data. It is commercial information that is usually collected by private companies upon request, and sold to media companies that base their advertising rates on it. In small markets like Mongolia it is usually not worthwhile economically to collect the data, so in-depth audience surveys exist only for the TV market."
},
{
"question": "(Read more: How is media selected?",
"answer": "No economic data: Market concentration based on market share cannot or can only partially be calculated since complete and credible numbers are not publicly available. In Mongolia such information is typically not disclosed and considered a “commercial secret”. No legal obligations to make ownership transparent: In Mongolia, print media and online news media have no legal obligations to make their ownership structures known to the public. Consequently, it was most difficult to find out through other sources who own the print media. For TV and radio channels, who are obliged to give ownership information to the official regulatory body CRC, the official data was incomplete and/or outdated. - is a point of reference for consulting competition authorities or governmental bodies when establishing suitable regulatory measures to safeguard media pluralism. The database is a snapshot of the current situation in Mongolia, contextualized by historical facts of the country. It is designed with the goal to be updated further by the Press Institute for Mongolia and Mongolian civil society in general."

"question": "Q: Are your pistol mag carriers one-direction, or can I insert the mag in either direction, facing foward or back?",
"answer": "A: The unique one-piece molded design of our carriers means they are hand-fit to perfectly match the shape and contours of your magazine, providing a snug clamping force that retains the mag securely, and still allows the mag to be removed with minimal force. The nature of this design means the mag will only fit in the carrier one way, with the back flat edge of the mag against the back flap of the carrier. The standard orientation for all pistol mag carriers is Rounds Forward. If you would prefer to have your carriers hold your mags facing Rounds Rearward, you’ll need to order the opposite of your Strong Side Shooting Hand. Ex. A right-handed shooter wears his pistol holster on his right hip, and spare mags on his weak side, or left hip. The shooter would normally order a RH SS model and wear them in the standard, Rounds Forward configuration. Selecting a LH SS model mag carrier will provide you with carriers worn on the same weak (left) side, but with the mag facing Rounds Rear. Q: I’d like to wear one of your carriers IWB (inside the waistband) for optimal concealment."
},
{
"question": "What model do I order?",
"answer": "A: If you are a RH shooter, you would normally order a RH Strong Side model mag carrier, and wear it OWB on your reload (weak side) in the standard Rounds Forward orientation. If the same RH shooter prefers IWB wear, he should order a LH Strong Side model. This mirror-image carrier of his standard RH Strong Side OWB model secures the mag in the same Rounds Forward orientation, but inside the waistband."
},

"question": "How close do you have to be to the tag ?",
"answer": "The answer of course depends on your phone and the tag itself, but generally you need to be within a couple of centimetres (an inch). Fusion FNT-001 may detect it around 25.0mm. That's the clever thing about NFC tags. They don't require batteries. They get their power from just being near a powered NFC device, for example a mobile phone. Like the number of NFC enabled phones, the number of NFC Apps is growing quickly. For example, you can already download Apps which will allow you to encode tags to turn your phone's wifi or bluetooth on or off - or open your favourite weather page. Encode a tag for your office desk and just tap it to change all your phone settings. The easiest way at the moment is to use an NFC enabled mobile phone such as the Nexus S running Android or a newer BlackBerry or Nokia. Just download a suitable App and you can be encoding your tags in minutes. NFC tags can be locked so that once data has been written, it cannot be altered. For most tags this is a one way process so once the tag is locked it cannot be unlocked. Encoding and locking are two separate actions. NFC tags can be re-encoded numerous times until they are locked. There's a whole set of different data types you can store on an NFC tag. The actual amount of data varies depending on the type of NFC tag used - different tags have different memory capacities. For example, you may choose to store a URL (web address) or a telephone number. A standard Ultralight nfc tag can store a URL of around 41 characters, whereas the newer NTAG203 nfc tag can store a URL of around 132 characters. Usually, this information is stored in a specific data format (NDEF - NFC data exchange format) so that it can be reliably read by most devices and mobile phones. Qi works through a well-established process called magnetic induction. You may remember magnetic induction from high school physics. Magnetic induction has been used for more than a century to make power transformers. Qi chargers have a built-in transmitting coil that intelligently communicates with Qi devices using a specific electromagnetic frequency, so any Qi device will work with any Qi charger, now and in the future. When my phone is fully charged, the green light on the WTU-050 doesn't turn off."

"question": "What is SegWit?",
"answer": "The base commission is displayed on each respective market page. More information about our fees and reductions for heavy users can be found on our fee page. Usually 50% of all generated commissions go to the creator of the market. The minimum withdrawal amount is 1mBTC and the fees can be found on the withdrawal page. Deposits are free of charge. SegWit is a new address format introduced in August 2017 with slightly lower fees. For you there is nothing to worry about. You can deposit Bitcoin to both addresses (legacy and SegWit) regardless from which address you are sending from. We recommend the SegWit address for all deposits below 500mBTC. From June 2018 onwards inactive accounts (no login in the last 24 months and no active order) pay a monthly maintenance fee of 1mBTC. - The BTC settlement will be based on the BLX index (https://bravenewcoin.com/markets/) in case there’s any issue such as down time or market manipulation we reserve the right to use the XBX index (https://tradeblock.com/markets/index/) for settling the markets. - Altcoins settlement will be based on the corresponding Poloniex prices, in case there’s any issue such as down time or market manipulation we reserve the right to use the XBL index (https://bravenewcoin.com/markets/) for settling the markets. - If both BTC indexes are not available or were manipulated, we reserve the right to calculate our own index. In that case we’ll take the average excluding the highest and lowest price of the following exchanges: BTC-e, Bitfinex, Bitstamp, itBit, OKcoinUSD, Coinbase. 4."

"question": "What is your Cold Storage Address?",
"answer": "Our cold storage address is 1EV8YeieYEZ7iksGT9jS7KdcbE12pk4FwZ. The sum of all issued credit to our customers will always be less than the amount of Bitcoins in that address. We use a modified version of Merkle Sum Trees to perform the proof. If the test passes you are guaranteed that your balance is included in the cold storage funds. - there may not be any severe security incident with any wallet software recommended on the official site of the fork. Fairlay will do these checks 6, 12 and 18 months after each fork and credit funds if the conditions are met. Fairlay might also support forks if not all of the conditions are met. Please ask us at least 48 hours before the fork. We recommend to withdraw all your funds prior to any Bitcoin fork. The amount (stake + winnings) of the largest market settlement of the last 24 hours is not available for betting, transfer or withdraw. This means that you can only withdraw your entire bankroll if 24 hours since your last settlement have passed. Only the largest settlement is considered, other settlements have no influence on your available funds. This rule is intended to protect Fairlay from occasional missettlements, which are usually corrected within 24 hours. Exchange and Dice markets are exempted from this rule as missettlements do not happen in these categories. The amount put on hold is designed in a way that no user can obtain a negative balance if any single market, that was settled in the last 24 hours, is resettled to a different outcome. if you do not like this rule, there is an an option to opt out of this rule for an additional non-reducible commission of 0.1% on all market net-winnings. Once activated, the opt-out needs 24 hours to kick in. 7."

"answer": "- Any manipulation of lines is strictly forbidden. All bets must be done in good faith. - Bets placed on non-live markets after they started (\"late matches\") are subject to be voided. Knowingly betting on non-live markets after the corresponding event already started is regarded as fraudulent activity. - Fairlay reserves the right to let a late match stand if Fairlay believes it's likely the taker of the bet knew that the market was already live. It's the duty of the taker to check if a market is already live, especially if the event is about to start or the orderbook looks different than usual. 9."
},
{
"question": "What is the difference between Normal and Taker bets?",
"answer": "Normal orders (Maker/Taker) are instantly matched when there is a counter bet waiting in the orderbook that matches the odds you're using for your prediction. If there isn't enough volume to cover your stake the remaining amount stays open adding liquidity to the orderbook and waits for another bet that matches your odds in order to get fully placed. Taker orders (Fill or Kill) only matches if there's a counter bet that matches your odds waiting in the orderbook, if there isn't enough volume or no orders have the the necessary odds the unmatched amount is automatically cancelled. 10."
},
{
"question": "How are winnings calculated?",
"answer": "Lets say you place a prediction of 10,000 mBTC on a market with 2% commission and your odds are 2.5. Your winnings are 10,000 * 2,5 = 25,000 mBTC. We directly subtract a fee of 2% from the net winnings. The net winnings are 15,000 mBTC. 15,000 * 2% = 300. So you will be credited with 25,000 - 300 = 24,700 mBTC. Please note that we don't take this fee in the sport and fun category. 11."
},
{
"question": "What do closed and resolved mean?",
"answer": "When a market is closed, predictions can no longer be placed. The resolution date is the date when the outcome of the market is determined. But be careful: some predictions can already be determined even if the resolution date or the closing date is not yet reached. E.g., will a certain YouTube video have a number of views until a given date - so whatever you place a prediction on - make sure that there is a chance that it will happen. If a bet is placed on a market where the outcome is already determined we will usually void all bets that were placed after the event that determined the outcome. 12."
},
{
"question": "How does Fairlay handle disputes?",
"answer": "In case of any unresolvable dispute between a user and Fairlay, Fairlay will accept arbitration from independent, well known, trustworthy entities in the Bitcoin space to settle the issue. Both parties have to agree to the arbitrator in advance. The arbitrator will also determine the party who has to pay the arbitration costs. Fairlay reserves the right to freeze funds from any client who is suspected of any illegal activity or major misconduct. This includes line manipulation, match fixing, betting fraud and money laundering. In such a case Fairlay will also accept arbitration. 13."

{
"question": "Where do I find an overview of my predictions?",
"answer": "14. I think one of my predictions was settled wrong or not settled at all."

{
"question": "What shall I do?",
"answer": "Unless different terms are stated in the market description, sport markets (excluding horse racing) are settled according to the settlement rules from Pinnacle (https://www.pinnacle.com/en/help/betting-rules). Please read these rules carefully before reporting a false settlement. Pinnacle also reserves the right to void markets if there is suspicious betting activity. Most wrong settlements are automatically corrected within 20 hours after settlement. Some markets need manual review or manual settlement. Please wait 20 hours before contacting support in the public support channel. Wrong settlements must be reported within 3 days from the date the bet in questions has been graded. Fairlay reserves the right to refuse to honor claims after this period. Always include a link to the market when you report a wrong settlement. 15."
},
{
"question": "What do spread values of +0.25, +2.75, -1.25 mean?",
"answer": "If you place a bet in this type of market your stake will be split in two. For example, in a game between Real Madrid and Barcelona with spread of +1.75, if you place a bet of 100mBTC on Real Madrid you're actually placing 50mBTC on Real Madrid at spread +1.5 and 50mBTC on Real Madrid at spread +2.0. 16."
},
{
"question": "What needs to be kept in mind when betting on Horse Racings?",
"answer": "Every time when a horse withdraws from a race and it's winning chances are greater than or equal to 2.5% a reduction factor is introduced, which is an estimate for the winning chances of the withdrawn horse. All odds of all bets that have been matched so far will be reduced by the reduction factor. For more information please read the betting rules linked to in every market description. All our markets can only be resolved to one winner. In the very rare case that there should be a shared first place amount several runners, we will void the whole market unless this case is handled in the description. 18."
},
{
"question": "What time zone do you use?",
"answer": "We use UTC aka GMT. To facilitate use we also display how much time is left until resolution - so you don't have to care too much about time zones. 19."
},
{
"question": "What will happen in case of a chain split?",
"answer": "In case of a chain split, we will make an announcement about it before the split happens. Fairlay will make both versions of Bitcoin available for withdrawal in case of the SegWit2X hard fork. If there is a market about price predictions of Bitcoin, the sum of both hard forks is taken into consideration for the settlement as long as the market was created before the split and there is nothing else announced in the market description. 20."
},
{
"question": "How are markets settled that are missing the winning runner?",
"answer": "We usually only try to have markets, that have all possible winners listed. If necessary, it has to have a runner called \"Other\". If you find any markets that's not \"complete\" , i.e. missing certain cases or runners, please forward it to our moderators and they will close it to not allow further betting. From a technical point, our moderators are only able to select either a winner or make the market void in general. The option to set all runners to lost is not provided. Markets are created by lots of different users and sometimes are no accurately describing every possible case. We do our best to grade these markets according to our best knowledge even if runners or special cases are missing. If one of the provided runners wins, we settle to this runner. If a runner wins that is not listed and the case is also not listed in the description, it will be settled to void. 21."
},
{
"question": "Do I place a prediction against Fairlay?",
"answer": "No - you always place predictions against other users. So every prediction must find a counterpart. If no one is willing to take the other side, you will get your stake back without any deductions. 22."
},
{
"question": "How is the turnover calculated?",
"answer": "The turnover is based on the matched amount. Its calculation depends on the odds chosen. If you choose odds > 2, the turnover is the amount you placed. Placing a prediction ON the outcome with an amount of 10 mBTC at 3.0 odds. When the odds are <= 2.0, the turnover is the minimum possible profit. Placing a prediction ON the outcome with an amount of 10 mBTC at 1.5 odds. Same goes for AGAINST bets, the only difference is that the odds are converted before we decide if we should take the profit or the amount placed. A future market (also known as CFD or Contract For Difference) is an agreement between two peers where both exchange the difference in value of a financial product between where a trade is entered and exited. It’s a tradable instrument that mirrors the movements of any underlying asset. This kind of prediction market creates a derivative in which you can speculate on a future price of any given asset, such as BTC, USD, China GDP, S&P 500 YoY growth, Nintendo earnings per share, etc. The settlement is determined by the price at the resolution date taking the source from the description and following our index policy settlement. The contract settlement is distributed pro-rata in mBTC to the participants of each trade. User Alice wants to sell 5 mBTC at a price of 1000 BTC/USD on an BTC/USD inverse CFD market (in theory Alice now owns 5 USD and 0 mBTC). Assume that the market settles to 400 BTC/USD (in theory Alice now uses all her 5 USD to buy BTC back at a price of 400 BTC/USD - she therefore gets 12.5 mBTC). As soon as the underlying settlement index of any future market is outside the market boundaries for more than 5 consecutive minutes, the market will settle to the corresponding boundary. If any settlement index of any future or inverse future market is manipulated at the resolution time, the resolution time may be moved. In that case a random time in a time frame of 6 hours starting at resolution time will be used. 26. I just placed an open prediction."
},
{
"question": "Why is the amount not deducted from my account?",
"answer": "Any user can place as much open orders as he pleases. Before any orders are matched we will always do a check if both users have enough available balance. If one user does not have the required funds, he has to pay a penalty of 0.1mBTC and his bet will be automatically cancelled and not matched. All users are required to make sure that they can have a sufficient high available balance all the time in order to avoid the penalty. 27."

{
"question": "While we may compare and contrast the attributes of rocks, eyes, tides and watches, to what shall we compare the universe?",
"answer": "Anything we might think of would be comparing a part of the whole to the whole itself, and we are unable to find another self-contained whole for comparison. We may conceive of an omnipresent god as an analogy for the universe, but unfortunately the analogy offers no insights of scientific value. It is also unlikely that the analogy would help theology."
},
{
"question": "Will god expand forever from an explosive beginning, or does god alternate through phases of expansion and contraction?",
"answer": "5. The analogy between human and divine mind is clearly anthropomorphic. Nature resembles a mindless organism rather than a purposeful and intelligent one. This is another way to put objection #1, this time by highlighting the parochialism of a theology that would pretend to understand the mind of god simply as a version of the human mind writ large. 6. The fruit of anthropomorphic thinking is a finite God. Here Hume goes on the counter-attack by showing that if the argument from design is taken seriously, one has to conclude that the god acting in the universe is very different from the Christian variety. Since there is no independent argument for the perfection of the designer, we have to judge its ability and character from what we see of the universe. And to paraphrase Bertrand Russell, if I had millions of years of time and infinite power and had come up with the universe as we know it, I should be ashamed of myself."

All credit card and bank related data is tokenized on the client side by secure libraries before being posted to our servers so sensitive data never comes into contact with the backend of our application. In a nutshell, we use PCI compliant methods to store customer card data directly with your payment gateway (Stripe, Braintree, etc. ), so no payment methods are saved on our servers. All credit cards, debit cards and ACH account numbers are tokenized and vaulted directly with your connected gateway, who are all PCI Level 1 certified. If you inspect any PayWhirl widgets, buttons, or iFrames in your browser you will notice that ALL PayWhirl URLs begin with \"https\" and this indicates a secure connection with our servers. Even your custom subdomain (company-name.paywhirl.com), which is used for your your customer portal and other widgets is served over SSL to ensure encrypted communications are always used. PayWhirl also completes a PCI DSS SAQ A-EP review annually (last completed on 11/11/2018. ), which is available upon request.

For many years, John has studied esoteric spirituality, which is the understanding, experience and application of universal laws and principles to practical life. We both believe that our challenge as human beings is to become conscious of what is now unconscious in us. Our life journey is to explore those parts of our nature that are presently hidden from us so we may express ourselves more genuinely. We need to become acquainted with our shadow side, the dark and unknown parts of our psyche that we have not yet owned. We also need to meet and own the divine side of our nature. Our ultimate aim is to embrace the opposing forces within us, the \"bad\" and the \"good,\" and bring them together in wholeness. This is transformation. We draw on teachings from a wide variety of sources, and share with you how those teachings have influenced our own experience of life. While we study the teachings of all religions of the world, we do not follow any one in particular."
},
{
"question": "Why have you called your site 'Higher Awareness'?",
"answer": "We feel strongly that awareness is the most powerful resource we have to effect change in our lives. Without awareness, we unconsciously react, analyze, judge and interpret, without really knowing what's going on. As awareness increases, we see more clearly the dynamics at play. This gives us the accurate information we need to consciously choose what's best for us and others. So all in all, we perceive higher awareness to be the single most important key to personal and spiritual growth."

{
"question": "How are you all doing band of crazy afficionados ?",
"answer": "Thank you for all your comments and questions. I'm going to answer to them all here. I thought it would be better to wait for some questions to answer them all in 1 mail. So here they are. Yes I was a little nervous when I saw the Range Rover arriving to The House. First I thought I had to leave but then since Brian looked at me and did not say a word, I stayed. After all, it was the early afternoon and I was on the sidewalk which is a public way and I was almost alone since my wife was already looking at other houses. Kids I saw in the Blue T Pizza were walking in my direction so I asked them if they knew where was the place where the small house that was originally on the \"112\" was standing but they could not give me the answer. I think I did not tell them the right place but did not really care, The House was the goal of my visit and my wife did not want to stay more than 25 minutes.. (I guess the best way to go is only 2 people or alone)."
},
{
"question": "I knew it was going to happen since I always do something different and I thought it was time for someone to finally meet him and have a short talk So why not the Architect of Light who always tries to build some positive things ?",
"answer": "Yes I thought he looked like James Brolin as he is now. Even if Brian was smaller than me (and Brolin is taller than me), I thought Brian looked like Brolin. Maybe because he has white hair and my memories directly connected Brian to the handsome Brolin who gave an interview about the first movie in my collector dvd of the movie. I guess the first \"man\" who comes to mind as the owner is \"Mister Lutz\" and then James Brolin since it was my first step into the \"Amityville world\" back in the early 90. Yes The Count, you really can see Brian on the pix I said, it's not a joke at all. He was looking at me through the window and I told him \"Good morning\" waving with my right hand (even if it was the early afternoon.. I guess it was a reflex.. ) I tried to post them at the real size I took them but even Photobucket or any other photo hosts did not give me the possibility. I don't know how to do it.. I know Evanguy2004, pix of the rear of The House could have been good. I thought about it when I was there, but believe me, when I saw Brian arriving and him through the windows I thought that the rear side was already seen and that I should focus my mind on the moment and the possibility to catch him through any windows and I did. My wife also wanted to leave as soon as it was done since she did not feel comfortable. I would say that Brian is in his 50. So he looked younger than James Brolin who is 67 years old now (answer for Liebesspiel). No evanguy2004, nobody else was there to look at The House like me. And maybe only one person walked there while I was taking pix. The kids who where in the pizza restaurant walked on the other side of the street. But it was funny because once a car came and was full of young guys and girls in their 20 and since they knew why I was there they looked at me, smiled. The driver shows me his fist and waved at The House and laughed, I found it funny Others cars drove through the streets, some persons looked at me, just did not smile and just passed. Nobody (except Brian), told me to leave or nothing. I did not scream, talked loudly to my wife or jumped of joy, I was just standing on the sidewalk. As you can see on the pic where I'm, I don't look like a punk but just like a man with a camera. By the way I always stood on the sidewalk, except when Brian talked to me, I walked to him and was into the property but he was talking to me, so.. I was thinking while he was talking to me. He seemed to be a little bit impressed by me. My wife and friends often tell me I'm impressing since I'm tall and well built (I do a lot of sport), so that's maybe why he was impressed. I was also thinking that I should have asked him more things or that I should have walked more to him like \"I can't hear you, let me come closer\" just to see more details But I knew it was maybe not a thing to do for a man who must be really tired of visitors. But again, he did not talk to me in a nervous way. So ask me for the pix, I'll send you the original size ones where you can clearly see him."

{
"question": "P.S: I saw The House and spoke to Brian, have you ?",
"answer": "Last edited by Architect of light 75 on Fri Jan 12, 2007 11:25 am, edited 1 time in total. I just want to add - if anyone has a photo of Brian Wilson, please do not post it. He's just a guy. There's no reason for us to see what he looks like, and its really a violation of his privacy. This guy is just the current owner of the house. He is not connected with the murders or haunting. There is no mystery surrounding him. Sorry - just wanted to make my position clear on that before we start seeing photos pop up in the near future. Wow those are some great pics! The area still looks the same as i remember it but the house just doesn't look scary anymore without those windows. I'm glad Mr. Wilson was so understanding but i would immagine there is not much onlookers like there used to be. I couldn't fathom being the Cromarties. But for $35,000 for that house i would learn to deal."

"question": "What is Controlled Vehicular Access (CVA)?",
"answer": "Controlled Vehicular Access makes use of dedicated cameras that are installed in twelve points around Valletta and which photograph vehicles entering and exiting the CVA boundary. The CVA system then makes use of various technologies to identify the vehicle, calculate the time the vehicle remained inside the Valletta CVA boundary and finally compute the fee due for access and parking based on the tariffs issued by Transport Malta (TM). The CVA system in Valletta replaced the V License requirement for access to the Capital. 2."
},
{
"question": "When did the CVA system for Valletta start operating?",
"answer": "The CVA system for Valletta started operating on the 1st May 2007. 3. I have already paid for the V Licence and a few months are left before this expires."
},
{
"question": "Will I still be charged to access and park in Valletta while the V license is still valid?",
"answer": "The V License structure will become obsolete as from the 1st May 2007. Those vehicle owners who have already paid for their V-Licence before the 1st of May will therefore be given a credit on their account the next time they renew their vehicle road licence. Therefore charges will apply as of 1st May irrespective of whether a V-Licence was paid or not. If a vehicle owner paid his or her V-Licence renewal in January 2007, and therefore this expires in December 2007, once the CVA system for Valletta comes into effect, that individual would have paid for an extra 8 months for access into the Capital. Consequently, those extra 8 months will be credited back to the vehicle owners' account on a pro-rata basis, ie. €46.50 / 12 x 8 = €31.00. When the customer renews the vehicle road licence in 2008, the €31.00 will be deducted from the road licence. The system calculates the value of the credit due automatically. 4."
},
{
"question": "Which Streets are considered to be Exit Points?",
"answer": "The public is advised that all entry and exit points are indicated as such via the use of appropriate road signage."

},
{
"question": "How can I register to receive bill notifications via e-mail/sms and pay online ?",

You may also request a copy of the CVA form R2 via the CVA call centre. Once filled in, the form has to be signed and sent back together with a photocopy of your ID card/passport.

I have more than one vehicle registered in my name/company."
},
{
"question": "Can I receive group bills and effect group payments?",
"answer": "Yes. In addition to having a detailed bill per registered vehicle, you will always receive a group statement. You may opt to pay all the bills for the whole group. Using the online website you can also opt to pay for a subset of vehicles registered in your name. If you have multiple companies or organisations you will receive a group statement per company automatically. You can also delegate authority to yourself or to a trusted third-party to access multiple group bills, thus simplifying the administration of the CVA billing process. 13. I have more than one vehicle registered in my name/company."
},
{
"question": "Can I be notified immediately in real time of my vehicles' activity?",
"answer": "vehicles over the phone. Note that vehicular activity may normally take up to 1 hour to be registered in the system, with a 15 minute delay being typical. 14."
},
{
"question": "What happens if I effect a late payment?",
"answer": "Payments not effected after 30 days from the invoice date will result in the applicable charges being increased by 2% or €5.82, whichever is the higher. Payments not effected after 30 days from the invoice date will need to be settled (including all charges) when the vehicle road licence is due for renewal. All amounts that have been invoiced will need to be paid before a vehicle is scrapped, transferred, or garaged. 16."
},
{
"question": "How can I benefit from a 10% discount on my bills?",
"answer": "You can either register to pay your bills by Direct Debit. Otherwise, if you pay your bill before the invoice is issued at the beginning of each month, you will be given a 10% discount. 17."
},
{
"question": "What happens if I disagree with the bills that I receive?",
"answer": "You are encouraged to provide feedback to CVA. This type of feedback is not regarded as a contestation.

},
{
"question": "How can i obtain a remote control to operate the mechanical bollard?",
"answer": "One of the measures to improve the pedestrian zone is the closure for traffic going up St. John Street into St. John Square via Republic Street. The only vehicle access going up through this area would be for electric mini cars and cars belonging to residents within the St. John Square area. A mechanical bollard has been installed on top of St. John Street corner with Republic Street. A remote control will be given to each resident in the area to be able to operate this bollard only for picking up relatives, and emergencies. The time allowed within St. John Square will be for 10 minutes. There although accessible at all times, residents are not allowed to park in St. John Square. Residents will be able to apply for these controls from Valletta Local Council by filling in form A6. This includes certain documentation that is required. Once approved by the Local Council, one remote control per residence together with a parking clock and special permit will be provided to the applicant free of charge. This remote control will be provided in connection with the residence that is indicated in the application. Therefore if it is found in possession of anyone else, the permit will be suspended by the Local Council. Opening and closing of the bollard is done by pressing the control, and pointing it in the direction of the bollard. It is imperative that this bollard is left closed to restrict access to authorised vehicles only. Lost remote controls will be replaced at a cost of €250 subject to the provision of a Police Report to the Valletta Local Council. However the first replacement will be provided free of charge. 21."

"question": "Where can I find more information on the 'Operational Communities' processes for proposal development?",
"answer": "You can, but the ICG is not going to pick and choose among competing proposals. That would centralize the authority in the ICG's hands, while its preference is for a bottom up, consensual process. If a proposal is submitted directly to the ICG without participation from the operational communities, the ICG will forward that proposal to the relevant operational community(ies) for consideration. Decisions over administrative matters may be approved on the basis of obvious agreement of all of those within the ICG expressing an opinion, or in cases where multiple different opinions have been expressed, may be reached by a majority vote. In all other decisions, the ICG aims to reach consensus recommendations or at least reach a recommendation that no ICG member opposes. If this is not possible, minority views opposing the recommendation will be documented and attributed in the report. It's worth noting that decisions addressed here relate to the handling and assembling of submitted proposal(s) and not decisions related to approval/rejection of the content of the proposals. The ICG guidelines for decision making are here [PDF, 124 KB]. The ICG takes the task at hand very seriously and aims to meet the target date. This should not mean, in any way, compromising the quality or functionality of the submitted transition proposal or failing to meet any of the NTIA criteria. Yet, in the unlikely event of not meeting the target date, it's up to the NTIA to decide on the next steps. The ICG charter says that accountability is \"central\" to our process. The ICG has asked the operational communities to consider oversight and accountability in their proposals. After receiving consensus proposals from the operational communities regarding IANA functions, the ICG will conduct an analysis and assessment of their implications for ICANN accountability. At that point it will liaise with track one of the ICANN accountability process on accountability elements that relate to the IANA stewardship transition process and advise it on how the results of stewardship transition process affects their requirements. A range of meetings will be held over the forthcoming months. ICG members have scheduled a community discussion session at the ICANN 51 meeting in Los Angeles. The ICG has also confirmed several community requests for meetings with ICG in Los Angeles. Community meetings are public, minuted, and, to the extent possible, transcribed and translated. To enable more effective scheduling and the widest participation possible, the ICG therefore emphasizes the importance of full community engagement in the broader public sessions, cross-community discussions and operational communities' processes. Should you wish to invite members of the ICG to address your organisation or conference, please address your invitation to the secretariat at [email protected]. Please note that while reasonable attempts will be made to accommodate requests, many of the members are volunteers and there are practical limits to the time available. The ICG is always interested in receiving more questions so that we are sure to maximize the information made available to fulfill the needs and interests of the community. If you have a question that is not answered in this version of the FAQ, please send it to [email protected]. It should be noted that all communication with the ICG can be made public, including communication with the chair or vice-chairs. If you have a question that is still not answered, please send it to the following email address: [email protected]."

"question": "Does this idea sit well with you?",
"answer": "If the answer is yes, then learn as much as you can about your EA. Don’t rush into things. Knowledge is power. Knowing why an EA trades and how it works can be the critical factor that convinces you to stick with a winning strategy during a drawdown. You always have the ability to turn the EA off. You are likely to do just that if you don’t know why you are losing money. IMPORTANT! Always read the manual that comes with your EA."
},
{
"question": "Why is backtesting an EA useless?",
"answer": "Expert Advisors also come with some downsides. Traders love having the ability to back test to see how the EA did in the previous market conditions. Keep in mind that past performance isn’t necessarily indicative of future results. Market conditions DO change; if an EA performed well over a specific period of time, no one can guarantee that it will perform in exactly the same way in the future. We’ve seen plenty of EAs that make money and then fall apart at some point in the future. When a computer runs an expert advisor, it forces a certain amount of discipline on a trader. When an EA sits on your computer with the ever present danger of the power or the internet in your home cuts out, you know that leaving the computer on 24/7 comes with risks. Traders with larger balances usually opt to use a VPS, which stands for a virtual private server. That’s a fancy way of saying that they are renting the computer power. Placing your EA on a VPS is a great way to ensure that you are not relying on home resources, which have a high risk of going down. And you are probably not going to have an automatic diesel generator that automatically turns on whenever your home power goes out."
},
{
"question": "What Expert Advisors do you recommend?",
"answer": "We are neither advising nor recommending the use of any Expert Advisors. We simply offer our educated clients a vehicle to trade their funds using Expert Advisors within the forex market after first considering the high level of risk involved."
},
{
"question": "How to install an Expert Advisor?",
"answer": "Both the installation and activation of most expert advisors are extremely easy and straight forward and yet many EA users struggle getting their EA up and running. Our short video tutorial gives an idea of how an EA is installed and activated. Tips from our tutorial will work for most EAs, but there may be exceptions, so be sure to read the manual that came with your EA. Thank you for taking the time to let us know how we’re doing. Risk warning: Forex, spread bets and CFDs are leveraged products. They may not be suitable for you as they carry a high degree of risk to your capital and you can lose more than your initial investment. You should ensure you understand all of the risks."

"question": "What processes do you do in-house?",
"answer": "We create custom packaging structures and dielines. We make our own photopolymer plates. We duplex paste custom papers. We steel rule die cut and score. We do hand finishing bindery and assembly work."
},
{
"question": "Who do you print for?",
"answer": "We print for clients we also design for. We print for big offset printers that need a letterpress partner. We print for designers and agencies. We print with print brokers. We print directly with small business clients."
},
{
"question": "What kind of projects can you do?",
"answer": "We focus on letterpress printing. We have seen the size of the jobs we do grow dramatically with larger print runs and greater interest in the process. We’ve continued to add special print finishing to our capabilities. Things like duplexing papers after printing, edge coloring, foiling and die cutting give the projects we complete a finesse that few printers are able to match. Our jobs tend to be complex and involve several processes. We are standing at an interesting crossroads of media consumption – print vs. electronic. Print will only become less common. We feel this makes the need for unique production the most important way for a client to spend their print dollars."
},
{
"question": "What kind of projects do you NOT do?",
"answer": "We have great print partners when a project involves processes we don’t handle in house. We are not a mailing house, we do not print data lists of addresses onto envelopes. No CMYK artwork or offset printing. No digital printing. No crash numbering. Our die cutting and scoring is limited to the projects we produce. We do not take die cutting only print finishing projects for the commercial print trade."
},
{
"question": "How are your machines different from other letterpress shops?",
"answer": "We have an unprecedented range of machines! Having the best tools for the job is a must for high-end letterpress printing. After all, we are talking about working with vintage machines from 1920’s-1980’s era. Nobody is making new letterpress equipment nowadays, but our machines represent the apex of letterpress printing technology. Maintaining these presses and using them with modern letterpress techniques keeps our work looking crisp and vibrant."
},
{
"question": "How do you use those machines?",
"answer": "Our Heidelberg presses complete 95% of our jobs. These vintage presses represent the apex of machines ever developed for letterpress printing. We choose a 10 x 15 platen press for smaller sheet sizes or smaller artwork area. Any die cutting or foil stamping work is done with our 13 x 18platens. Our cylinder presses are used for larger sheet sizes and artwork that requires more impression area. Cylinders are our favorites and are ideal for fitting multiple pieces on the same press sheet and for longer runs. We keep our hand feed presses like the Gietz and Vandercooks handy for difficult to feed objects and small run jobs."
},
{
"question": "How large a sheet can you print?",
"answer": "Our largest sheet size is 21 x 28. This is extra large for letterpress! We can plate a continuous area up to 19 x 25 inches. However, if you are thinking about a large piece see please see our Poster FAQ. Printing of poster size press sheets is expensive and typically needs at least a few hundred sheets to make it worthwhile."
},
{
"question": "Can you print big runs?",
"answer": "There seems to be a general assumption that letterpress as a printing method is not suited to longer runs. NOT SO! We have six cylinder presses precisely because we’ve seen much more interest in larger scale letterpress work. This is an area where we excel. There aren’t many letterpress shops out there that can handle the same set of specifications that we can handle. We have a commitment to making letterpress a relevant production method for any size commercial project. Our press capacity and the quality of our vintage equipment makes us a giant in letterpress printing."

"question": "Can AggData create that list for me?",
"answer": "In most cases, yes. Even with our extensive data library, we recognize that you might need specific data we haven’t yet compiled. We will often take those custom requests and integrate them back into our main library – this actually allows us to subsidize the cost of custom list development. AggData has developed many methods of extracting information and most likely your request is comparable to one we have accommodated before. However, rare exceptions do exist where we cannot deliver what has been requested because of technical issues. In such cases, AggData is committed to working with you and can provide alternatives that might be sufficient for your data needs. I need to purchase several lists."

{
"question": "Is there a package discount?",

"question": "What should I do with the file once I’ve downloaded it?",
"answer": "The file you receive will be in CSV (Comma Separated Values). This type of file is easy to manage and work with, and is commonly used by many types of software and databases. Open the downloaded file in Microsoft Excel or other spreadsheet program – these programs will automatically recognize the data and display it based on column headings. Now you will be able to sort, filter, and manipulate the data based on your needs. You also have the ability to import the data into a database, upload to a GPS unit, or print out for future reference."
},
{
"question": "Why don't your store numbers match the ones I have?",
"answer": "First, if you search your zip code on Best Buy's website (example here), you will see that next to the store names is a visual indicator that indicate exactly which store number that location represents (i.e. \"LACEY WA (Store 1043)\"). However, on other websites, such as Walmart.com (example here), you will notice that the store number is not indicated on the web page, but rather in the URL itself (walmart.com/store/3525). We will still collect this as the store number because we believe it is more likely than not to be the actual store number. We have independently confirmed in Walmart's case that this is correct, however, there may be other lists where that number is simply an ID assigned to that particular web page and does not reflect the internal store numbering system. We apologize for any confusion this causes, but we have decided it is worth the risk of collecting any numbering we find, because it in our testing, it has been correct in the large majority of cases. If you have specific concerns about the quality of the store number in a particular list, we would recommend you download the sample file in order to check ahead of time if it matches. And if you find a mismatch, we would definitely appreciate the feedback, however, it is unlikely that we will be able to replace it with the correct store numbers, as that was probably the only number available at the primary source."

[

"question": "Home » Frequently Asked Questions » How do I get a 'police clearance certificate' or criminal record?",
"answer": "There is no such thing as a ‘police clearance certificate’ in New Zealand. If you are convicted of a crime, a criminal record is created and held in a database by the Ministry of Justice. If you are asked for a ‘police clearance certificate’, ‘police record’, ‘police file’, ‘police check’, or ‘criminal check’, a copy of your criminal record from the Ministry of Justice should meet the requirements. If you have no convictions, you will receive a letter stating that is the case. To apply, visit the Ministry of Justice website’s section on criminal records. Police Vetting is only available to approved organisations who meet the Vetting Service’s approval criteria. A ‘Police vet’ is sometimes incorrectly called a ‘police clearance’ or a ‘police check’.

Drivers and aides are experienced carriers of both medically fragile students and those with behavioral challenges. EASTCONN also transports some qualified adults for employment and training programs."
},
{
"question": "Is EASTCONN a state agency?",
"answer": "No. However, EASTCONN regularly collaborates with the Connecticut State Department of Education on a broad variety of educational initiatives and programs, not only for schools in our region, but for educators across the state."
},
{
"question": "Is EASTCONN affiliated with Eastern Connecticut State University in Willimantic, or the University of Connecticut in Storrs?",
"answer": "Not directly, no, although EASTCONN often works collaboratively with the universities on educational initiatives and programs. No. The name is a combination of the first syllables in two key words, Eastern and Connecticut, which describe our regional location. Our name is properly spelled using all capital letters: EASTCONN. Created in 1980 under Connecticut General Statute 10-66a, EASTCONN is a public, non-profit, Regional Educational Service Center (RESC). EASTCONN exists to provide high-quality, competitively priced educational and related services to 36 member Boards of Education (school districts) and the 33 communities they serve in northeastern Connecticut. We are governed by a Board of Directors, which is composed of representatives from locally elected Boards of Education. The agency’s funding comes from the fees it charges for programs, products and services, supplemented by competitively awarded grants and contracts. Public, non-profit Regional Educational Service Centers (RESCs) were created more than 50 years ago by the Connecticut Legislature (General Statute 10-66a) to help public school districts and their communities obtain high-quality, cost-effective education services and programs. Each of the state’s six RESCs served – and continue to serve -- a specific region of the state. EASTCONN, for example, was established to serve the 33 towns and 36 schools districts across northeastern Connecticut. In the early 1990s, however, as schools and communities increasingly turned to their local RESCs for education-related assistance and savings, RESCs realized they needed to work together to foster their collective efficacy, and amplify their public-education advocacy efforts at the state Legislature. The RESC Alliance was born. The Alliance was also formed to improve inter-RESC communication and collaboration with the express purpose of providing public schools and their communities with improved access to an ever-expanding list of educational opportunities, services and programs. Over the decades, RESCs have collectively saved public schools and communities millions of education dollars. Today, RESCs continue to offer savings across a vast array of regional and education-related services and programs that their member districts and could not otherwise afford on their own. Access to the benefits available through one RESC means access to the benefits offered by all RESCs through Connecticut’s RESC Alliance."

[
{
"question": "Everyone looks in the mirror, but have you ever really looked at your shoulders?",
"answer": "When one shoulder appears to sit higher than the other when you see your reflection, you could have developed a scapular instability. This is a condition where your scapula sits in an abnormal position. Even if this condition is not painful now, you may begin to develop pain the longer your scapula sits incorrectly. Eventually this could lead to further injuries, such as biceps tendinitis. To determine the best path forward for treatment, you will need to have your shoulders examined and the severity of your condition assessed. Don’t wait for your misaligned shoulders to lead to complications—contact Castle Pines Physical Therapy or Cherry Creek Physical Therapy for more information or a one-on-one appointment with our expert physical therapy staff.

"question": "What is a poultry factory farm?",
"answer": "A poultry factory farm is a large-scale farm operation that produces chickens, turkeys, ducks, and sometimes geese in cramped, filthy conditions. The birds have no access to the outside or even windows."
},
{
"question": "How does a factory farm affect the birds that live there?",
"answer": "The birds are never given the chance to breathe fresh air or feel the sun on their beaks. They live in their own excrement, urine, and vomit. Their beaks are sometimes cut off with a hot blade so that they won’t peck each other. Toes may also be removed."
},
{
"question": "How does a factory farm affect the environment?",
"answer": "Pollution caused by the factory farming manure run-off can pollute ponds, lakes, creeks, rivers, ground water, and wells. Bacteria, such as pfisteria, can kill aquatic plant and animal life and have caused human illness and death."
},
{
"question": "How many birds are raised in factory farms each year?",
"answer": "There are approximately 300 million egg-laying hens, a quarter billion turkeys, more than 24 million ducks, and ten billion broiler chickens. Battery cages are typically made of wire and typically house between five and ten egg-laying hens, limiting the birds’ space to the size of an 8 ½ X 11” sheet of paper. Many birds cannot reach food and water. They become entangled by their necks and feet in the wire and live the entirety of their lives in these cages. I buy only “free-range” poultry."
},
{
"question": "Isn’t that the humane option?",
"answer": "The term free-range simply means that the chickens are not confined to cages. They may be able to roam around a severely crowded warehouse, but they are not able to perform the behaviors inherent in chickens and rarely do they see the outdoors, their natural habitat."
},
{
"question": "What can I do to change what is happening to chickens, turkeys, ducks, and geese?",
"answer": "Substitute veggie and soy-based products for poultry products. Visit a farm sanctuary and observe poultry species in their natural habitat."

"answer": "I did not certificate my AS Level examinations and so grades are not listed on my UCAS form."
},
{
"question": "Can I re-sit modules within the A/AS Levels without disadvantage?",
"answer": "Yes. We are looking for applicants who can study and pass subjects to a high level over a specific time frame. This will indicate that you are able to deal with the academic workload of our medical/dental programmes. Therefore, we will expect you to achieve the required A/AS Level results over the normal two year period (for example, year 12 and 13). Within this period, you can re-sit modules within qualifications without prejudice to your application. However, at the end of the period you are required to have completed the appropriate full examinations and achieve our minimum entry requirements."
},
{
"question": "If I do not meet the minimum academic entry requirements but offer or exceed the correct tariff points, can I apply?",
"answer": "No, we expect applicants to be predicted/achieved at least AAAb (pre-2017 results) or A*AA (2017 results) in the correct subjects, therefore you cannot offer tariff points that add up to AAAb or A*AA (year dependent). We will only consider the grades AAAb or A*AA (year dependent), or higher."
},
{
"question": "What is your internal deadline for receiving a response to queries before I submit my UCAS application form?",
"answer": "Applicants are advised to visit our website before submitting an application. If you require clarification on any of our policies, entry requirements or other selection criteria. Please ensure you do so in writing to [email protected] at least three weeks before the UCAS deadline of the 15th October. Any enquiry received after this period is unlikely to receive a response before the UCAS deadline."

},
{
"question": "If I apply by the 15th October deadline when can I expect to hear from you?",

"answer": "You can re-sit the GCSE subjects during your AS or A Level year. The School of Medicine and Dentistry does not accept applicants who have not completed their degree courses, nor do we accept transfers from a related degree onto our medical/dental courses."
},
{
"question": "Can I apply as a graduate if I do not have a 2:1 classification in my degree?",
"answer": "Unfortunately you are not eligible to apply to ANY of our courses. We do not accept applicants with 2:2s in their first undergraduate degree for any of our courses, and you cannot offer any qualifications in lieu of this (e.g. MSc or PhD)."
},
{
"question": "I will not be 18 by the start of the course, can I still apply?",
"answer": "Candidates MUST be 18 or over by the start of the course, if not, you are unable to apply for that year's entry but you can apply for deferred entry if you will meet the age requirement the following year. Even if you are a few days or weeks under the age requirement by the start of the course, you will be automatically rejected if you do not intend to defer entry. It is the applicant’s responsibility to ensure they will be 18 or over at the start of the course."
},
{
"question": "I'm taking a gap year and wish to defer entry, how will this affect my application?",
"answer": "We are happy to consider students who are deferring entry for the 5-year Medical and Dental programmes. Please ensure you tick the correct box on the UCAS form to let us know you are applying for deferred entry. However if you decide late in the cycle to defer entry it may not be possible to offer you a place the following year."
},
{
"question": "How do I do this?",
"answer": "Requests and appropriate evidence should be sent to [email protected]. Please include your full name, applicant ID (if already applied), and course you wish to be considered for. We strongly advise candidates to make their request as early as possible."
},
{
"question": "What if I decide to drop qualifications that I listed on my UCAS application after I have applied?",
"answer": "We are unable to consider any changes to qualifications listed on your application after the UCAS deadline (i.e. 15th October). This is because we consider you based on the information you have provided on your UCAS application."
},
{
"question": "Can I come and have a look around the campus at Barts and The London School of Medicine and Dentistry?",
"answer": "Yes, you are able to conduct a self-guided tour on Monday-Friday from 09:00-17:00. Please download and print the map and self-guided tour information below. All our interviews take place in January and February. We start inviting selected candidates to interview at the beginning of January through to February each year. GEP MB BS 4-year programme runs the assessment centre in January. I have an interview."
},
{
"question": "What should I expect?",
"answer": "All shortlisted candidates are asked to attend an interview. For the 5 year MB BS and BDS programme, we always interview using a panel (which can contain tutors, senior professional service staff, doctors and dentists and current students) and are looking for the qualities that we consider would make you a good doctor or dentist. It would be useful to prepare yourself by browsing student forums where you can find details of other students' experiences of interview."
},
{
"question": "Why has my application been rejected before interview?",
"answer": "Your academic performance or UKCAT score was not as strong as those applicants shortlisted for interview. Your UKCAT score was below our cut-off point determined by the overall candidate’s total scores. You did not meet the minimum age requirement. You are in the first or second year of a 3-year degree programme."
},
{
"question": "Why has my application been rejected (after interview)?",
"answer": "Whilst we are aware that it is very disappointing for your application to be rejected at this stage, we would like to reassure you that this decision is undertaken according to a process designed to judge all candidates equally. Our interviewers are trained and are chosen for their experience in selecting candidates as well as representing many different areas of the University or NHS. Many candidates are of an excellent standard, so we do reject a large amount of suitably qualified candidates at interview – as a guide, we make about 600 offers and interview approximately 1,000 people for the A100 5 year MB BS programme and about 190 offers and interview approximately 300 people for the A200 5 year BDS programme, so a large number of students will be disappointed. If your application was rejected without interview, it is likely that this was due to one of the factors outlined in the ‘why have I been rejected' question. We are unable to provide written feedback to applicants who are rejected prior to interview. We are able to provide brief feedback to applicants who were unsuccessful after the interview stage but this will not be personal feedback. Please be aware that we need this request in writing, and that due to the busy nature of the admissions office it can take up to 20 working days to respond."
},
{
"question": "How does the Waiting List after interview work?",
"answer": "Candidates who are just below our interview cut off score will be placed on our waiting list and will be notified by a separate email. The waiting list is still to be viewed as an official rejection by UCAS. There is no need to send us any further supporting documents and we contact you if we have places available. We cannot guarantee we will be able to offer you a place on the course so if you receive an offer from any other University you should accept it."
},
{
"question": "My offer letter says that I will be considered as a ‘home’ student, what does this mean?",
"answer": "‘Home’ refers to your fee status, as International and Home students pay different fees. It does not mean you have to live at Home!"

{
"question": "What are Teacher Certification Programs?",
"answer": "Teacher certification programs are the processes one must go through to obtain a teacher certification in a particular state. It is vital to note that every state has a specific outlined program you must follow in order to receive your teacher certification. On Certification Map, you can browse the programs and requirements of all fifty states. Most teacher certification programs share a number of common elements. First, prospective teachers need to have a bachelor’s degree in education or, if your university or college does not offer a degree in education, you should have a regular academic degree supplemented with teacher education courses. Another element of most programs is fieldwork in a classroom that aids a teacher’s development. In addition, all states require that prospective teachers complete some basic skill test in addition to subject tests in any areas they wish to teach. Since teacher certification programs across states are fairly similar, it is often possible to become a teacher in another state without going through that state’s full teacher certification program. However, this option is not available for all states, so it is important to understand the specific requirements of the teacher certification program in the state where you wish to teach."

"question": "Looking for more in-depth information?",
"answer": "Try our FAQ page. An ATA or Analog Telephone Adaptor is a device that converts analog voice signals from a non-VoIP based telephone, to digital signals which can then be transmitted over the internet. Also, ATA is one of the few acronyms we know of where 2/3 of the words are spelt differently based on where you’re from (Analog/Analogue and Adaptor/Adapter)! A CDR or Call Detail Record documents all of the calls that have passed through a telecommunications providers infrastructure. Aatrox Communications providers a CDR at the end of each month to view details of all calls made, which comes in the form of a CSV file. Fortunately with Aatrox Communications you don’t have to wait until the end of the month with our Live VoIP Dashboards. DID, or Direct Inward Dialling is where we (or your telco) assign a range of telephone numbers to your SIP Trunks. These numbers can then be called to reach users or endpoints on your PABX. Before DID, each phone required its own phone line – so an organisation with 30 staff would have 30 phone lines – even though they’d probably never all be in use at once. With DID, the same organisation may only need 10 SIP trunks, but based on the number called the call will be routed to and ring on the correct phone. Bandwidth is the amount of data than a connection can transmit over a time period (usually a second). Bandwidth is measure both downstream (from the remote end to your end) and upstream (from your end to the remote end). Common bandwidth metrics vary from 56kbps on an old dial-up connection, up to tens or hundreds of megabits per second on an ethernet or fibre-optic connection. Bandwidth is very important in achieving high-quality VoIP performance – have a look at our FAQ for more detail on your bandwidth requirements. In VoIP terms, a codec converts analog voice into digital signals. Depending on the codec, compression may be used to decrease the bandwidth requirements. Aatrox Communications’ SIP Trunks support a number of different codecs – and you are able to choose which one(s) to use on your PABX or device. See or FAQ for a list of supported codecs. IP or Internet Protocol allows computers to talk to each other – and in this context, phones, network equipment, many printers, and so on all have computers inside them to allow them to be part of this conversation. VoIP, or Voice over IP is where devices send voice signals over the IP network – and SIP Trunks are a key piece of VoIP. ISDN is a standard for data and voice communication from way back in 1988. Put simply, it’s how many business phone systems have been connected to the telephone network for many years. ISDN lines are typically bought in blocks, such as an ISDN2, ISDN10 and ISDN30 (for 2, 10 and 30 lines respectively). There are a number of limitations of ISDN (after all, it’s a very old technology), which have been addressed by VoIP technology. Most telecommunication providers around the world have announced shutoff dates for their ISDN networks (some not for many years) – but it’s well and truly on the way out. An IVR uses touch-tone responses or increasingly voice commands to allow users to interact with a phone system. Think “Press 2 for sales” or “Enter your account number”. Standard functionality called an “auto-attendant” and allows callers to be router to the correct place – and helps organisations look more professional. Jitter in VoIP (or more broadly in IP communications) in the variation in the delay, or latency, of received data packets. Jitter is bad – and can result in some packets being delayed substantially, and even taking longer to arrive than packets sent after it. Jitter can happen for a number of reasons – generally problems on a network level – and can have major consequences for VoIP performance. Latency is how long a piece of data, or packet, takes to get from point A to point B. Sometimes latency is measures as a round-trip – i.e. from point A to B and then back to A. High-latency connections mean that VoIP packets take a long time to get from the person speaking to the person listening – which is not good, and can result in a noticeable delay. We’ve all experienced phone calls where people keep speaking over each other because of a delay, and it makes communication much less fluid. Generally speaking, the further a signal has to go, the longer the latency (there can be other delays such as poor configuration, but we’ll ignore those for now). An extreme example is satellite internet connections, which route your internet connection through a satellite in a geostationary orbit 35,000km above the earth. That means by the time your voice has reached whoever you’re talking to it has probably come 70,000km. Even at the speed of light, that takes about 1/4 of a second, which they experience as a moderate delay. Wow! LNP or Local Number Portability allows you to move your telephone number(s) between providers of your choice. It’s a law that all telecommunication providers in Australia need to follow – specifically the Telecommunications Act 1997, and further regulations from ACMA (the Australian Communications and Media Authority) and the ACCC (Australian Competition and Consumer Commission). LNP sits alongside mobile number potability and local rate and freephone number portability (1800, 1300 and 13 numbers). Know your rights! Not all providers will willingly allow you to port numbers away from them – but unless you were advised otherwise when you signed up for their service, they are not allowed to deny your request. A PBX is a Private Branch Exchange, and a PABX is a Private Automatic Branch Exchange. To understand what a PBX is, we’ve got to look back – way back. Before computers, a phone call involved speaking to an operator who would manually plug in wires to link up your phone with whoever you were calling. Once the circuit was completed, you had a phone call. These operators worked in rooms called PBXs, and they existed in cities, large companies, suburbs, and so on. Once computers – or more specifically electronic switching – entered the picture, these PBXs were able to be automated, and these new automated systems became known as PABXs. Over the years plenty of additional technology has been introduced such as conference calls, intelligent routing, and so on. These days, a manual PBX is something we might see in a museum – so there’s no real difference between PBX and PABX and the terms are used fairly interchangeably. The PSTN or Public Switched Telephone Network is the global network of telephones, using a mixture of older analog technologies and newer mobile and IP-based technologies. A voice network can exist that is not connected to the PSTN – think something like an intercom or walkie-talkies – but in most cases a voice network will need to be connected to the PSTN in some way. This is what SIP Trunks do – connect a phone system to the public telephone network, over the internet."

[
{
"question": "VMware VSAN was released in March, but is it the right fit for your business?",
"answer": "This FAQ will explain how VMware VSAN works -- and how much it costs. VMware appropriated the traditional acronym of a virtual storage area network (VSAN) but VMware VSAN differs from a VSAN in a few notable ways. VMware VSAN has been integrated in vSphere 5.5 and collects hard drives and SSDs from ESXi hosts solely to store virtual machines. A traditional VSAN uses external arrays that can be provisioned for any storage purpose."
},
{
"question": "What are the requirements for VMware VSAN?",
"answer": "Administrators will need to update to vSphere 5.5 to implement VMware VSAN, which also must be managed by the vSphere Web Client. The beta VMware VSAN release capped the space in a disk group to six hard disk drives (HDDs) and one SSD, but the ceiling was lifted to one SSD and seven HDDs since many servers have a capacity of eight drives. Companies that want to remove any doubt about their hardware and plunge into using VMware VSAN can also pick up a Ready Node from a VMware partner, such as Cisco, Dell, IBM or Supermicro."
},
{
"question": "Who should use VMware VSAN?",
"answer": "While the beta of VMware VSAN was free to give enterprises a taste of what it could do, the general availability release is not included in vSphere. Running VMware VSAN costs $2,495 per CPU and runs $50 per user when used for VDI. Costs aside, determining whether your environment has the requisite hardware or provides the same -- or better -- functionality as a storage area network (SAN) are other factors to consider."
},
{
"question": "Are there similar products to VMware VSAN on the market?",
"answer": "Companies with a traditional SAN storage product that are investigating VMware VSAN may be confused by the multitude of similar offerings in the software-defined storage market. Toss in the accompanying marketing hype of each vendor, and the whole exploration process can make even the most tenacious of administrators blanch. Storage company EMC owns a majority stake in VMware and also competes in the software-defined storage market, but there are instances where the parent company's offering is better suited for different businesses."

We are hoping to create a quiet atmosphere for contemplation and prayer."
},
{
"question": "9) If I have made a deposit, when do I pay the rest of my fee?",

You can be as involved as you want to be in the design process all the way from start to finish. I also guarantee that no two One Nine Design sites will look exactly the same, and always include custom coding to give your website a design that makes it stand out among the rest! When I launched my business in early 2017, I knew one thing for sure. I would never forget what it felt like to be on the other side. For nearly 20 years, I've served in the nonprofit world so believe me when I say I understand the words \"tight budget.\" In my work as a United Way Director, I worked with many nonprofits that would have benefited from a professional website but simply couldn't afford it. And now, as a small business owner, I think the same principles apply. I started this business with this audience in mind -- to deliver a beautiful, professional product at an affordable rate that will help others accomplish their mission of serving others. Simply put, I don't believe you have to charge exorbitant rates for good work. I believe in doing good work for the right reasons and making sure those who need me most can afford it."

{
"question": "What are the ongoing costs of a Squarespace website?",
"answer": "One of my favorite parts about using Squarespace is the fee structure. With One Nine Design, you pay one design fee only. You are billed separately for your domain and you pay a flat, annual fee for hosting. There are no monthly costs and no ongoing fees for site maintenance. After all, once your site is completed, it's transferred to you and you're in charge! You can get an idea of what Squarespace fees are by checking out their Pricing page."
},
{
"question": "Will I own the website once it's finished and can I edit the site myself?",
"answer": "Yes and yes! Once we have walked through our \"launch party,\" I transfer complete ownership of the website to the client. Clients have the option of keeping me as an Editor of the site to make changes, however, that is not required. All website packages include a two hour training on how to maintain and edit your new website. Written documentation for common updates is also provided. Additionally, you'll have access to Squarespace Support 24/7 which is just amazing! You can see more about my website design process over on the website package page."
},
{
"question": "Can you help me write content for my site?",
"answer": "Yes! Part of what makes One Nine Design unique is my background in both nonprofit and for-profit industries and my years of experience (and love for) writing! During the initial consultation, we'll discuss which content from a previous site you want to keep (if any) and what new content needs developed! Telling your story well is just as important as your design. A small fee for copywriting is charged."
},
{
"question": "Can I test the website before it goes live?",
"answer": "Yes! When the site is ready for you to review, you will receive an invitation to become an Author of the site. This gives you full access to explore the site, share with others, and do a complete test before it goes live."
},
{
"question": "How long does it take to get my new site live?",
"answer": "It depends. If you are moving an existing site to Squarespace and we're re-designing, the average project takes 14-28 working days. If we are creating a brand-new site, the project time can range from 21-60 days. In the initial discovery call, we'll decide on a timeline together!"
},
{
"question": "Can you help me find a new domain name or transfer an existing one?",
"answer": "Sure! When you choose One Nine Design, you'll receive your new domain name FREE for one year (typical annual cost is between $20-$50). If you need help moving an existing domain name to a new site, I can also help you with that. I have experience working with HostGator, GoDaddy, Network Solutions, etc."
},
{
"question": "Why is the business named One Nine Design?",
"answer": "Joshua 1:9 literally saved my life. In the darkest period of my life and a period of severe depression, I opened the bible to Joshua 1:9 and discovered a truth that would set me on a new path for the rest of my life. This verse reminded me that no matter where I went (and for a girl who has moved more than 10 times, that was a big deal) God would be with me. But in that promise, He also required that I be \"strong and courageous,\" that I not be discouraged and that I not be fearful. I named my business after this verse so that I would always be reminded of those principles and promises. 1. It took me 30+ years to work out that God gave me gifts and I am accountable to Him for how I use them. And I find great joy in using those gifts to help others. 2. Life is too short to do anything just because it pleases others or because others think you should. 3. I believe that first impressions can make or break us as organizations or businesses. Schedule a call to see which service is right for you!"

"question": "How do you do that?",
"answer": "Look at the HUD. There are 6 lights in this chamber. Each hunt that you don’t catch a Paladin, one of the lights turns on. If all 6 turn on (that’s 6 hunts without CATCHING a Paladin), the alarms go off and now your trap setup loses all it’s luck! Bummer! Catching a Paladin before the 6 lights light up will reset ALL the lights. This is all about luck (as there is nothing you can specifically do to attract this mouse), and sometimes you’ll clear the chamber without the alarm, sometimes you won’t. However, you will “succeed” regardless of the alarm, and when you drain the loot from this chamber, you will receive the special bonus (buff) where Paladins are no longer attracted to your cheese. This is critical when hunting in other chambers. Another special chamber, this is the chamber you want when you have the curse from the Paladins that takes away your luck. You only need to clear out 10 pieces of loot, then you have your luck back. Easy as pie (you cannot fail)."

{
"question": "Is Dr. Petelin board certified?",
"answer": "When you come in for your cataract surgery, your eye is anesthetized with surgical drops so that you will not feel what is happening. Next, the surgeon makes a micro-incision in the front of the eye and a tiny opening in the capsule that holds the cataract. An ultrasound probe is used to break up the cloudy lens in a process called phacoemulsification. This way, the bits of cataract can be removed through a smaller opening, rather than pulling the damaged lens whole through a larger incision. The surgeon then replaces the cataract with a customized IOL. At this point, the micro-incisions are hydrated so that they can seal and heal on their own with no sutures. And you’re done! No. While it sounds scary to have surgery on your eye, the truth is that you eye is anesthetized, only a little over a tenth of an inch of the eye is affected, and it heals quickly. Most patients can return to their regular activities the day after surgery, with some minor limitations."
},
{
"question": "Can my cataracts come back?",
"answer": "Your new IOLs are made of synthetic material that won’t degrade and cloud over like the eye’s natural lens. However, in about half of patients, slight cloudiness may occur in the capsule holding the lens. If this happens, a one-time, one-minute laser procedure can correct it. This procedure is covered by insurance."
},
{
"question": "What are my options for intraocular lenses (IOLs)?",
"answer": "Basic IOLs have worked well for millions of people across the globe. These clear lenses are optimized for distance vision, but patients may still need glasses for distance vision and will definitely need glasses for intermediate and near vision. Basic IOLs are covered by insurance. If you want to correct your refractive error as well as get rid of your cataracts, you can choose precision blending IOLs. Through a combination of advanced diagnostics and highly sophisticated lens technology, your cataract surgery can also free you from glasses or contact lenses, correcting distance, intermediate and near vision all at the same time! This technology is amazing, but it is also elective, so there will be an out-of-pocket expense to you for the use of precision blending IOLs. Premium IOLs offer excellent near vision along with distance vision. These can be customized based on your unique vision requirements and lifestyle. Premium IOLs are also subject to additional out-of-pocket expenses."

[
{
"question": "Why Doesn’t Push Work when the Browser is Closed?",
"answer": "Let’s start with Android. The Android OS is designed to listen for push messages and upon receiving one, wake up the appropriate Android app to handle the push message, regardless of whether the app is closed or not. On desktop OS’s, it’s more nuanced and it’s easiest to explain on Mac OS X because there is a visual indicator to help explain the different scenarios. This means the browser can have no windows open, and you’ll still receive the push message in your service worker, because the browser in running in the background. The only time a push won’t be received is if the browser is completely closed, i.e. not running at all (no marking). The same applies for Windows, although it’s a little trickier to determine whether or not Chrome is running in the background or not. Note: This is just the behavior of Chrome. Other browsers may behave differently. Feel free to raise an issue if you have anything you have anything to add to this discussion. This was not web push. There are a few reasons this early set-up of Chrome and GCM wasn’t “real” web push. GCM’s servers accepted a custom API request that wasn’t a web standard. Chrome and Application Sever Keys do not need any kind of project to be set up with Google or Firebase. It’ll just work. FCM supports the web push protocol, which is the API that all web push services will support. This means that regardless of what push service a browser uses, you just make the same kind of request and it’ll send the message. Instead, think of web push as consisting of a browser, which uses a push service to manage sending and receiving message, where the push service will accept a “web push protocol” request. If you think in these terms, you can ignore which browser and which push service it’s using and get to work. This book has been written to focus on the standards approach of web push and purposefully ignores anything else. The only time you should care about this back story is if and when you want to support older versions of Chrome, Samsung Internet browser or Opera for Android, all of whom use the older GCM trick which requires supporting the proprietary GCM API. If you want to support these browsers you’ll need to implement the older GCM API which is documented in the non-standrards browser section of this book here."
},
{
"question": "Why do I get the “This site has been updated in the background”?",
"answer": "Chrome will show this message if your site fails to show a notification at the expected point in time after a push message is received. If you simply never show a notification, you’ll get this error message if a push is received and you need to show a notification (i.e. your site isn’t currently focused by the user). // Show a notification in 5 seconds. Notice that we are going to show a notification, but the exampleBadPromise will resolve before the notification is shown. While this example is non-sense, it’s easy to mix up a promise chain when you start making API calls with fetch() and attempt to perform other async tasks. In short - if you see this notification, check your promise chains and make sure you are handling errors. Using the tokens for each user, you can use the proprietary FCM API to trigger push messages. This API doesn’t require encrypting payloads. You can send a plain test payload in a POST request body. FCM’s proprietary API supports custom features, for example FCM Topics (It works on the web too, though it’s poorly documented). Web Push Book by Matt Gaunt is licensed under CC BY-NC-ND 4.0."

Modifications can be endless – it can be changing the size of the window or even adding a room.Modifications that won’t affect structural, electrical or plumbing plans are free of charge. Otherwise, we will quote for the revisions. You only pay if you agree to the quotation."
},
{
"question": "How accurate are your construction cost estimates?",
"answer": "The estimates we indicated in each design page are based on industry standards and just serve as a guide. Cost of construction will depend on the final finishes you will select, the location of your lot (how accessible for suppliers and contractors), and several other factors. Best to get a starter set of the plan you want, and have a local contractor/builder give an accurate quote. We have a nice blog entry on the types of materials that fall under each construction price range. I have a particular design in mind and it’s unlike and of the designs you have posted."

"question": "Can you customize it for me?",
"answer": "Email us at [email protected] your lot plan, the image of the design you want and your room requirements, and we will give a quotation on coming up with the set of drawings, and the lead time of how long will it take for us to complete it. It should take not more than a month. Custom designs might cost a bit more than the ready made plans we have, but the price will still be competitive and reasonable."
},
{
"question": "What do I need to secure a building permit?",
"answer": "City or municipal halls in the Philippines have their own requirements for building permits. It is best to make a visit and request for their requirements. On top of this, if you are building inside subdivision that has their own set of requirements, you should also ask them. The best option is to avail of the PDF/CAD set so your contractor/builder or yourself could have multiple copies printed of the drawings and documents. The license agreement allows you to build a SINGLE house from the plans purchased. If you are a developer that wishes to build one of our designs for multiple lots, email us for a quote and we will give you a friendly price for multiple licenses."

{
"question": "Why choose Philippine House Designs?",
"answer": "With our ready-made plans, what you see is what you get. Even if you have some modifications made, you already know what the house will look like. This saves you weeks and months of finalizing a design. In just a few days or weeks, you already have the documents to build the house of your dreams. Philippine House Designs are backed by architects and engineers with years of experience of designing and building houses, and you get to purchase their designs for just a fraction of the standard costs. Philippine House Designs is also the first in the market to offer ready-made energy-saving house designs that will help you save on electricity bills.

https://www.vansaircraft.com/faq-technical-builder-items/how-to-diagnose-and-fix-a-heavy-wing/
|
[
{
"question": "Is it twisted somehow?",
"answer": "Use the wing template to cross check the aileron and flap alignment. If any of the above are wrong, FIX ‘EM. 3. Now back to the ailerons! Of all of the wing heavy problems the commonest one that can easily be identified and fixed is poor aileron symmetry. In flight, the aileron surfaces are exposed to some fairly high speed airflow. If during the installation of the ailerons, one aileron is installed with its spar in a different vertical location with respect to the rear spar of the wing than the other aileron, then you will have a problem. Since the ailerons are interconnected by the push tubes and control column, they must reach equilibrium during flight. If the deflection forces produced by the airflow are not identical then the ailerons will automatically move to a position where these forces are equalized. Obviously if the equilibrium position produces an aileron deflection, then the plane will want to roll. The more the deflection, the heavier the wing roll tendency. The fix for a problem of this nature is easy. Recheck the centerline of the tooling holes of the main wing ribs and the aileron ribs to be sure they are above the bearing pivot holes in the aileron attach brackets (per plans). This displacement should be checked on both inboard and outboard ends of the ailerons for both wings while the ailerons are set in trail with the wing template. The absolute dimension is not as critical as is the fact that both ends of each aileron and both ailerons be the same. If they are off by as little as 1/8″ anywhere relative to each other, then it must be fixed. The fix is to simply purchase new A-406 BLANK or A-407 BLANK aileron attach brackets and drill displaced attaching holes in them to correct the asymmetry. (RV9/9A and RV-10 builders will find the parts oversize but useable with trimming). Slotting the attach holes in the original attach brackets for test purposes is fine but the final hole position should be transferred to new brackets for permanent installation. Now go fly it again. Several slight adjustments may be needed so have patience. For all planes except RV-9/9A and RV-10 there is an additional correction that can be done: If there remains a wing heavy condition in excess of the 3 gallon (18 lb) one mentioned above, then the next step is to adjust the trailing edge radius of one of the ailerons. Reduce the trailing edge radius of the LIGHT wing. This procedure should be approached carefully as it can have a significant impact. Squeeze it a little and then go fly it. DON’T try to fix it all at once. The final solution for all models, if all else fails, is to simply add a trim tab. All of the construction manuals for the aircraft detail a wedge type trim tab that does not affect appearances too much."

},
{
"question": "How can I protect my PCD with a password?",
"answer": "The protection is done by configuring a password in the hardware settins and downloading this configuration (make sure you have enabled the \"Password\" in the download window). You can re-download the hardware configuration (with the password protection in the Hardware Settings unchecked). Again, make sure you have enabled the \"Password\" in the download window. You will be prompted for the password when downloading the new configuration. You can clear the whole memory of the PCD or the PCS. Doing so will not only remove the password but will erase the whole configuration and user program of the PCD! The \"Clear Memory...\" function can be found in the menu \"Online\" of the PG5 \"Online Configurator\". The procedure \"Clear Memory...\" does not yet work for all CPU types (e.g. the PCD3 memory can not be cleared with this function). (An alternative way could be removing the battery and removing the power supply in case the user program is stored in RAM).

"answer": "NJ 07032 46223 An archaeological evaluation was undertaken in July 2006 to ascertain whether there were any archaeological constraints upon the location of a turbine forming part of the Berry Burn wind farm. The proposed turbine location lies near the prehistoric field system at Rochuln (NJ04NE 3). Seven trenches were excavated, covering 392m2, equivalent to just over 5% of the available area. The present ground surface was at 310m OD. The trenches were excavated through varying depths of peat, and all came down onto natural sand with frequent boulders protruding from the bedrock. In some places an iron-pan had developed before the onset of peat accumulation. Large tree trunks were visible within the peat at depths between 0.4m and 0.7m. The evaluation identified three lengths of dry stone walling, comprising two separate structures lying on top of the natural subsoil and sealed beneath up to 0.7m of peat. Of unknown date or function, they may be associated with an early field system. All three features lie on the very E margin of the Turbine 30 location and c45m from the centre point of the turbine base. Three linear banks that lay outside the limits of the previous work undertaken by the RCAHMS (survey DC17478/PO) were surveyed. Archive and report: RCAHMS (intended)."

It will not normally be necessary to provide references for entries in the DES county list. References to previous DES entries for the same site should be in the form DES 2001, 92 93. For other references follow the Harvard system. Cite the reference in the text as the author’s name and the year of publication, with page and illustration references. Provide a full list of references in alphabetical order at the end of the entry. Use the CBA journal abbreviations. Take the title from the title page, not from the spine or elsewhere on the cover. The title should be transcribed exactly as to wording and spelling but not necessarily as to punctuation and capitalisation. This means that except for proper names, only the first word of a title should be capitalised and no full stop is necessary at the end of the title. Cite dates as 30 July 1893. Use the form 5th century, 3rd millennium. Note that dates used as adjectives are hyphenated; 5th-millennium date, 18th-century moulding. Use 1590s, 1930s. • Note the order 49 BC, but AD 1952. Elision of dates should be to the shortest form consistent with clarity, eg 5-5 July, 1745-7. To allow sites/finds to be located to the highest possible degree of accuracy National Grid references (NGRs) should be given as two letters and at least eight figures. Ten figure NGRs would also be most welcome. Exceptions are treasure trove locations where the submitting body feels that a more ambiguous location is appropriate, or completed work where the locational information has already been submitted to DES. Use current rather than historic local authority divisions (see map in this volume). Use italics for the titles of books and journals, eg Discovery and excavation in Scotland, DES, Proc Soc Ant Scot. Use italics for foreign words and quotations, eg c (for circa), terminus ante quem, honi soit qui mal y pense. Spell out the numbers from one to ten except in measurements. Numbers 11 and above should be numerals except where the context makes this awkward (eg at the beginning of a sentence). Figures between 1000 and 9999 do not require a comma. Where numbers appear in a sequence, use numerals, eg of 100 trenches, 74 produced white gritty ware. Elision of numbers should be to the shortest form consistent with clarity, eg 254-8, 116-18, 196-203. Cite measurements in kilometres (km), metres (m) or millimetres (mm). Use the unit that is appropriate for the accuracy of the measurement. Do not use cm as they are not an SI measurement. Do not leave a space between the number and the unit of measurement. In a series of measurements using the same unit only the last measurement needs to be followed by the unit, eg 34 x 67 x 83mm. The accuracy of measurements and the units used to describe them will not be comprehensively checked, and the responsibility for ensuring their accuracy rests with the contributor. Short quotations should be enclosed in single quotation marks. Lengthy quotations (more than five lines) should be indented, beginning a fresh line, and should not have quotation marks. Spelling should follow the Concise Oxford Dictionary, preferring the first variants where offered. Contributions should be brief statements of work undertaken. Survey information should be summarised. Avoid the use of the passive."

"question": "What is the difference between nuclear weapons and nuclear energy?",
"answer": "The core of a nuclear fission explosive device is either plutonium metal (preferably with a high proportion of Pu-239) or high-enriched uranium (typically with a percentage of the fissile isotope U-235 around 90% or more) also under metallic form. The plutonium route consists in irradiating uranium fuel in a nuclear reactor, preferably during a short period of time in order to produce rather pure Pu-239. Irradiated fuel unloaded from a reactor can be processed in a radiochemical facility where the plutonium is separated from the used uranium. The other proliferation route consists in producing high-enriched uranium. It is important to efficiently control the export of dual use material and technology in order to prevent or minimize nuclear proliferation risks. Peaceful development of nuclear energy is primarily dedicated to electricity production, heat production and not to produce plutonium resources. Research reactors are aimed at research and isotope production for medical and industrial applications. The first difference is obviously that nuclear weapons are made for military purposes while nuclear energy is made for civil uses. Both use the physical phenomenon of fission. The core of a nuclear fission explosive device is either plutonium metal (preferably with a high proportion of Pu-239) or high-enriched uranium (typically with a percentage of the fissile isotope U-235 around 90% or more) also under metallic form. The plutonium route consists in irradiating uranium fuel in a nuclear reactor, preferably during a short period of time in order to produce rather pure Pu-239. Irradiated fuel unloaded from a reactor can be processed in a radiochemical facility where the plutonium is separated from the used uranium.

"question": "7How does a family stay work?",
"answer": "If you book a family stay on a bed & breakfast basis, the family will provide your breakfast and that you’ll have access to the kitchen to cook your own food for the rest of the meals. If the family is able to and you want them to provide any more meals, you can pay for them at the end of the week in the school. If you prefer to stay on a half-board basis, the family will provide you with breakfast and dinner. Please note Spanish meal times might differ quite a lot from your normal customs. Having dinner around 21.00 is the norm here! Whatever basis you book in, it will give you access to laundry facilities. We don't generally recommend absolute beginners to stay with a family. It's not a problem as we'd always be to hand to sort out any major communication breakdowns, but it is quite tough on you! Lessons and walks are in Spanish, so you get plenty of exposure to the language during the day. Also, hardly no English is spoken in the village. However, it is true that this option would give you a more \"real\" taste of Spain, so taking this into consideration, it's totally up to you!"

Family Activity / Extreme Spanish - all equipment for the outdoor activities is provided, but comfortable walking shoes or trainers and or sandals are recommended for before and after particularly water sports.

{
"question": "Do I need to consider cross pollination before ordering fruit trees?",
"answer": "Most fruit trees do require cross pollination to yield fruit. Apple trees should be cross-pollinated, but bloom time is not as critical, as many apple varieties have overlapping bloom times. In situations where only a few apple varieties are planted, check the apple pollination chart to make sure bloom times coincide. Peach, nectarine and tart cherry trees are self-fruitful and do not require cross-pollination. Most plum, apricot, pear and sweet cherry varieties do require cross pollination. A minimum of two different varieties is required for proper pollination. Also keep in mind that apricot, plum, cherry and peach bloom ahead of apple and in turn are more subject to crop damage or loss due to spring frost damage."

},
{
"question": "Can I see my regular physician for a workplace injury?",
"answer": "Generally no. Employers are required to post a list of at least six (6) doctors for injured workers to choose from when they get hurt on the job. This list is known as the Panel of Physicians. The employer is required to inform the injured work about this list and his or her right to choose a doctor for treatment. 7."

{
"question": "What happens if my doctor returns me to light duty work?",

"answer": "The answer is likely yes. Unlike other areas of the law, Workers’ Compensation is a “no-fault” system. An injured employee need only show that their accident arose out of their employment.

"question": "What is the name of the shrub with multi-colored leaves at the patio of Hudson garden grill?",
"answer": "It is a potted shrub on the patio next to the doors. I’ve attached two photos to be sure we’re talking about the same one, but from her reaction, I think this must be it. The first photo shows the whole container, and the second one, a close-up, includes a plant identification sign I was able to find on one of our specimens. It’s Coprosma, an Australian native, and ours is a gorgeous variety called ‘Evening Glow’. It’s a slow grower and ours looks so full because the gardener combined six plants from 4-inch pots into that container, and they have grown this well in two years. We don’t know how much pruning this will need over time, as a few shoots are already starting to come in solid green, which is pretty but not nearly as dramatic as that gorgeous variegated foliage. Although it displays this variegation all the time, the color will get a little more coppery during our autumn months. Unfortunately, it’s not hardy here."

"question": "+ Why should I get involved with the PTA?",
"answer": "Your child benefits. When parents get connected to the school, children get better grades, do better on tests, and have fewer discipline problems. When you build a relationship with your child’s teachers, principal, and office staff, it will be far easier to communicate about any problem (or victory) that occurs throughout the year. You will be in the know. The PTA knows what’s happening with the school, who's involved, and plans many of the events. You'll tap into a great network. PTA functions are opportunities to meet other parents and teachers, to build rapport and discuss issues that are on your mind. You can share ideas, concerns, and experiences to make the school year better for everyone. You can be part of the solution. By getting involved you can help make positive changes. The PTA plays an important role in fundraising to provide building improvements, curriculum-based programs, and social events. You can meet other parents. The common bond all parents of school-aged children share is that we care about creating the best possible educational experience for our kids. We are neighbors and peers and as a result, many friendships are forged via this connection. Your child will feel a sense of pride. Being part of the PTA will, in most cases, make your kids proud of you. They may not admit it, but they will feel proud that their parents are involved in improving their school's well-being. You can have fun while doing good. Volunteer work shouldn’t be drudgery. Our PTA has helped in small ways (planning fun social events for the school community) as well in large-scale projects (funding the new computer lab). And because we worked together towards one goal, we had a great time doing it. Your voice can be heard. PTO can be a way for you to more effectively effect change at your child’s school. You can share your skills. Your child will beam for weeks after his parent comes to school and shares his career, hobby, or even just their time helping out at the school book fair. All parents have individual talents they can share. You can show that you care. By becoming a PTA member, you’re also becoming a role model and demonstrating to your child the importance you place on education as well as on being involved in their world."

"question": "What does Zion Glory mean?",
"answer": "The meaning of Zion requires a little history. The word Zion occurs over 150 times in the Bible. It essentially means a reinforcement of strength, as the city of David and the city of God in the original Hebrew translation of the Bible. As the Bible progresses, the word Zion expands in scope and takes on an additional, spiritual meaning."
},
{
"question": "Why did you choose that as your business name?",
"answer": "We chose the name Zion Glory as our company name because it was a revelation; one of those AH-HA! moments in life when everything seemed to just click. Daniel had decided to dig deeper into the lifestyle of RasTafari which sparked many deep conversations between the owners as they both grew spiritually and eventually found their life's calling in the words 'Zion Glory'. During a time where we had found fresh soil, Colorado, and we were so ready to plant the seeds that were calling us we eventually both took the Vow of the Nazarites, loccd our hair and changed our lifestyle drastically. Long before making the change we increased our intake of fruits and veggies, cut out red meat, reduced the amount of meat we were eating and had began to research natural and herbal ways to treat our aches and pains. This lifestyle change is what led us to the creation of every single one of our products. The foundation that we've been building upon was planted with the calling from the Most High and we answered!"
},
{
"question": "What is the purpose or meaning behind the colors you use on your packaging?",
"answer": "The colors on our packaging, the red, green and gold, were initially chosen because the roots that we've found in RasTafari. They symbolize the way of life that we represent that is focused on our connection with the earth and all animal, plant and human life. Although we were born here in the United States we see Africa as the motherland and beginning of creation and our focus is to make our way to each of the countries that run through our blood. But our ultimate goal is to set our roots down where we are closest to the start of creation for this next phase of the Earth."
},
{
"question": "Why isn't there marijuana or cannabis in your products?",
"answer": "We don't have marijuana in our products because the licensing and set up costs to be in complete compliance with the laws are extremely costly and not created for family businesses, like ours, to create those types of products legally. That's something you'll learn about us, we like to make sure we cover all our bases and function as a legitimate business. There are plenty of small, home-based businesses that create their own cannabis products, that's correct."
},
{

"answer": "All of our products are handmade by our Licensed Skin Therapist and Co-Owner, IxChel. She takes an significant amount of time making sure that the space they are created in is clear in terms of vibrations and energy flow, she selects specific crystals to wear and flow energy through the kitchen that is conducive of the needed vibrations for each product; she also gives a special blessing over the products after they've been poured to charge them with our unique spirit and love! Then, because we're a family-owned business, Co-Owner, Asad, assists with hand-labeling and tamper sealing each one of the products. Our family takes great care of your items from the time the ingredients are selected, ordered, stored and handled until the time they arrive in your hands for the purpose they were intended to serve!"
},
{
"question": "Is Zion Glory safe to use on pets?",
"answer": "Zion Glory's products have been used on pets. However, just like people, each pet and person may have a different reaction to certain ingredients. The owners have 3 dogs and each of them prefer different products at different times and for unique uses. We've also had several of our clients use their ZG products on their pets. Since all of the ingredients are natural and from the Earth there is no inhumane pet testing but we do suggest using small amounts on a small part of the skin/fur as a test patch before putting any product all over your pet. Wait at least 30 minutes to see how that patch of skin is reacting to the product."
},
{

},
{
"question": "If you would like to walk in to a store and pick up your favorite Zion Glory products you can take a trip and visit our exclusive product retailer, JLM Therapeutics in Denver, CO.\nAre you starting a cult??",
"answer": "HAHA!! Seems like a ludicrous questions doesn't it?! Those of you who KNOW us, know that this question is way off they wall. However, since we've moved to New Mexico we've had the pleasure of running into some racist, lonely neighbors that can't fathom the fact that two \"young\" brown people could be doing anything positive. And they've been trolling our website, making up these fictional characters in their mind that they've convinced themselves we are and spreading those lies around this small town. Super smart! HAHA! So here is the answer.... NO!! We are in no way, form or fashion starting anything like a cult. We have established land in New Mexico for community purposes. For people who would love the opportunity to build with people who want to grown their own food, raise animals, connect with Mother Earth, help restore the water, trees and bring back the indigenous plant life we've forgotten about while connecting back with our ancestral roots.

"question": "Is it safe to go to Israel/Palestine?",
"answer": "Safety of the participants on a CODEPINK delegation is something that we take seriously. From time to time, violence on the ground in Israel/Palestine captures the attention of global news media. Situations such as this understandably raise concerns about safety on the delegation, especially with family members of people who planning or thinking about going to Israel/Palestine. CODEPINK always carefully monitors the situation and is in regular conversation with our Israeli and Palestinian friends about ongoing developments."
},
{
"question": "Why should people from North American countries travel to Israel/Palestine?",
"answer": "The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is not “over there.” It is a conflict that is influenced greatly by foreign policies crafted in the capitals of western countries – chiefly, the United States. The US gives Israel over $3 billion in direct military aid every year – more than any other country and provides significant political and diplomatic support for its Middle East ally. Meanwhile, the Israeli occupation of Palestinian territories continues to stoke conflict around the region. As a result, people from North America have a responsibility to understand the conflict and to act to change the status quo."

{
"question": "Q: How does Hypnosis Work?",
"answer": "A: Forget hypnosis, just forget the word. An easier way to understand the process is to look at it as concentrated meditation, with a goal in mind. The hypnotherapist acts as a guide, to help discover solutions to issues and to help re-program the ultimate computer, the human mind. When you find motivation at a sub-conscious level, it is very effective. You can achieve dramatic results in a very short time. The process of hypnosis is a natural, safe and timely method to modify behavior. A: Hypnosis is an altered stated of focused awareness, that can be used to improve physical, emotional or mental conditions. Understand that the process of hypnosis is simply guided imagery or visualization. These are basically the same techniques that athletes and successful people use in many aspects of their lives. A: Not if you resist. You must have desire, belief and expectancy to make it happen."
},
{
"question": "Q: Will I Quack Like A Duck While Under Hypnosis?",
"answer": "A: Stage hypnosis and hypnotherapy are very different. Stage hypnotists are all about entertainment, (at the expense of their subjects), and hypnotherapy is private, coincidental, and goal oriented."
},
{
"question": "Q: Is Hypnosis Like Going to Sleep or Being Unconscious?",
"answer": "A: No, just the opposite. Hypnosis is a heightened state of awareness, and you will be aware of all aspects of your conversation with the hypnotherapist. Hypnosis is also not letting someone else control you. You are always in charge of accepting or rejecting anything said by the hypnotherapist, and you can never be made to say or do anything that would be embarrassing to you, would be against your own moral code of conduct, or that would place you in danger."

{
"question": "What does it cost to build a municipal broadband network?",
"answer": "The cost of completion for a municipal broadband project varies by location. In Olds, Alberta, with a population under 10,000, expenses totalled around $21 million. The Niagara Regional Broadband Network (NRBN), in total, originally cost $13 million to complete. The Eastern Ontario Regional Network (EORN), which delivers service across hundreds of kilometers, required $170 million in funding. Of this budget, $70 million went toward laying new cables to connect 5,000 kilometers of existing fibre infrastructure. There are many reasons why fibre is the future of Internet infrastructure. Fibre is the fastest and most reliable broadband connection on the market, and has the capacity for much more bandwidth than traditional Internet platforms. The speed that a fibre network provides — which can be up to 1,000 times faster than your run-of-the-mill DSL connection — is also a huge draw for businesses and industry; in places like Chattanooga, Tennessee, it’s been proven to give the local economy a boost that hasn’t been seen since the industrial revolution."
},
{
"question": "Is cable as good as fibre?",
"answer": "Unfortunately, cable just won’t cut it anymore. Unlike fibre, it has limited room for bandwidth and discourages efficient network traffic. Outdated platforms like DSL and copper wire would be a poor investment with minimal return. Fibre is future-proof; for years to come it will still be fast, durable, and highly efficient. Fibre’s promise of long-term speed and reliability is the draw for businesses to community-owned networks."
},
{
"question": "A project like this must mean tax hikes, right?",
"answer": "Think again! There are examples in Canada where taxes didn’t need to be raised to pay for broadband infrastructure. In Olds, Alberta, the profits from O-Net are projected to completely pay off the community’s loans from the government within 10 years, due to the booming business the network has created for the municipality. If just one third of the population subscribes to O-Net, the project pays for itself. Municipalities who have laid broadband infrastructure will often sell their network capacity to ISPs, who in turn offer service to subscribers. Open access means that any provider, big or small, has the same opportunity to use a municipal broadband network. This includes indie providers, who sometimes face an uphill battle entering a market dominated by well-established companies."
},
{
"question": "Don’t telecom companies hate the idea of community-owned networks?",
"answer": "With open access community-owned networks, telecom companies have the chance to profit from infrastructure that they didn’t pay to build. It widens the service area of existing ISPs and allows them to reach an expanded customer base. Not to mention, it gives all companies — including indie providers — an equal shot to get in on the market. That’s a great deal! Big Telecom runs the show in Canada’s Internet market. Sometimes referred to as “incumbent providers”, they are the companies that sell the majority of Internet services to Canadians across the country. Household names like Bell, Telus, Rogers, Shaw, and more are part of Big Telecom, and collectively hold around 91% of the residential Internet market share. As alternative options to Big Telecom, independent “indie” providers are smaller, third-party ISPs. They are an important part of healthy market competition in Canada, as they often encourage affordable prices from their larger competitors, resulting in better offerings for customers."
},
{
"question": "What is the 'digital divide'?",
"answer": "The digital divide refers to the ever-widening gap between people who have adequate access to the Internet and those who do not. In many cases, the divide exists along geographic and socioeconomic lines; that is, there are millions of rural, low-income, and remote Canadians with little to no broadband access, while urban centres remain the focus for affordable upgrades and fast connections. The Internet is a crucial medium for free expression, with the result that Canadians who fall on the wrong side of the digital divide see their ability to express themselves restricted."
},
{
"question": "What does the digital divide have to do with municipal broadband?",
"answer": "The status quo isn’t fair to the 6.3 million Canadians who live in rural centres, or the 14.9% of the population who is considered low-income. Municipal broadband is one of the best ways we can close the digital divide in Canada. It connects rural populations to state-of-the-art fibre networks, and levels the playing field when Big Telecom won’t venture outside the city limits. Dark fibre is a name for fibre that is “unlit”, and therefore, not in use. Dark fibre infrastructure is in some cases already built, as companies place more cables than necessary to save on future expenses. Dark fibre can be used to the municipal broadband network’s advantage, as the utilization of existing infrastructure is a great way to lower the cost of a project."
},
{
"question": "Where do municipal broadband networks already exist?",
"answer": "Municipal broadband networks exist all over the world, in both urban and rural communities. Examples in Olds, Alberta and Sandy, Oregon illustrate how community-owned networks in North America can do wonders for the livelihoods of those who live there. Similar projects are even springing up thousands of miles away, in places like the Netherlands and Singapore."

{
"question": "Do you guys really think Service X would work without any government at all?",
"answer": "We don’t know. And you probably don’t either. That’s the point. Although PTB collects empirical evidence in support of the claim that services work better when provided without governments, that claim may or may not ultimately be correct. What is certain, however, is that this evidence – and the possibility of a peaceful and voluntary society that it suggests – is rarely considered. It’s just not part of our cultural conversation about how to solve social problems. Our goal is to shift this conversation so as to include more discussion of alternatives to state-provided services. PTB Alternative X works within a state paradigm, and benefits from state provided services – such as national security, law, infrastructure, etc. – in order to exist."
},
{
"question": "How is it a PTB Alternative?",
"answer": "The fact that a PTB Alternative relies on some government services does not invalidate its significance to PTB. Since the beginning of recorded history, there has never been a single event that was entirely free of all government influence. If our standards were so strict, we’d have no PTB Alternatives at all. A PTB Alternative is merely a service that is relatively free from government involvement."
},
{
"question": "Does Pressing the Button have an ideology?",
"answer": "PTB is an education platform for presenting information that allows people to evaluate the efficacy of alternatives to government-provided services. Our goal is merely to collect relevant evidence, and encourage discussion around it. Which conclusions these discussions elicit is another matter. This is not a left-wing website – it features alternatives like private businesses. Nor is this is a right-wing website – it features alternatives like worker co-ops, communes, mutual aid societies, and other solidarity-based collectives. And it is not an anarchist website – it may be that only some of the services we highlight ought to be provided without the government; moreover, most of the sources we feature do not identify as anarchist."
},
{
"question": "Why don’t you have a category for, say, agriculture, clothing, or cars?",
"answer": "PTB Alternatives have two defining characteristics: 1) they are provided through non-governmental means; and 2) they are services that people tend to think can only (or best) be provided by governments. While agriculture, clothing, cars, and many other products and services, have been provided by governments, most of us don’t assume that they must be provided by governments in order to be provided effectively."
},
{
"question": "Why don’t you have a category for, say, space travel or the sharing economy?",
"answer": "Check out the Other Alternative Services page for PTB Alternatives that aren’t easily categorizable under one major umbrella."

},
{
"question": "How could you feature his/her work on PTB?",
"answer": "We do not endorse the writers that we feature. A writer may espouse absolutely awful views, and yet have one really important and insightful PTB-worthy work. By featuring some source, we highlight the source, not everything else put out by the author. With that said, if you think that we have featured something untrustworthy or fallacious, please let us know and we will consider removing it. I’ve taken a look at your site. However, for philosophical/theoretical Reason X, I still think state-provided services are absolutely necessary."
},
{
"question": "What is your response?",
"answer": "We love philosophical/theoretical discussions! Write up a post about your Reason X, and we’ll be happy to feature it on our blog, Debating the Button. That’s our space for disagreement and theoretical debate. The rest of the website is a collection of empirical data – real-world or historical examples and comparisons. Not that we don’t value the theoretical stuff; it’s just not what the main part of the website is for. The name comes from our founding essay, William Nava’s “Would You Press the Button?” In short, the button is the button you press to give yourself more options. It’s the button that creates competition and incentives among services to work as effectively as possible for you and your communities. Ultimately, it’s the button you press to live a freer and better life."

"question": "Could they really be voted out of existence or rendered ineffective?",
"answer": "It doesn’t seem likely to me. Participation in the OSI and adherence to OSI licensing guidelines and Open Source definitions is entirely voluntary. If it isn’t serving the best interests of the community, the community will go elsewhere. Anyone considering an effort to “vote the organization into the ground” would surely realize that such heavy handedness would be self-defeating. That’s not to say that a new membership structure wouldn’t lead to change, but I believe that these changes would have to be the result of vigorous consensus building and that’s probably not a bad thing."

"answer": "I wish to thank Robin Good to ask me an opinion on the subject through his last invention, Robin Good World News, a web-tv channel collecting independent video news from around the world. More than simply provocative, your question is spot on. Microsoft really should consider joining the OSI Board of Directors as an observer. Apple and Google have already done so. A move like this would help them develop a clearer identity & strategy as a participant in the open source bazaar. Alex, I totally agree with you. I claimed it was a ‘provocative’ question because, for a large part of the Open Source/Free Software world, it is. While unthinkable for many, I believe it is going to make sense, but it will take a while before < <another Microsoft, inside the Microsoft!>> 🙂 will eventually take over the company."

"question": "What if I want more time than what’s included in the package?",
"answer": "Additional hours can be added at $220 per hour. We usually assign one photographer to each wedding, we believe in truly beautiful candid and natural shots and these are best achieved when you don’t even know that the photographer is there. All of our photographers are very experienced and know the shots that need capturing and can do so in an unobtrusive way which is only possible with one photographer. All our photos are edited and colour corrected, to make sure exposure and white balance is right. Because our style is natural, we try not to retouch the photos too much so they remain natural and timeless. However if there are certain photos that you have chosen for the album that you would like retouched because you may have a blemish or scar on your face, then we can re-touch the photos at will be in the album. Each of our weddings are edited and so we will give you only the best photos, we won’t give you any photos of people with their eyes closed, or shots out of focus or people with food in their mouth."
},
{
"question": "Can we see the photos before the album plan session?",
"answer": "Within a week of the wedding we will put up a Sneak Peek on our Facebook page so that you can share with family and friends. We will then put your secure online gallery on our Website so that you can see all of the photos before your album plan session and you can choose your favourite photos for your album. The album plan session is usually scheduled approx. 4-6 weeks from your wedding date and the session is done during a weekday, allow for approx. 4-5 hours for the session. It’s a good idea to book this time in before your wedding and have the appointment before you return to work after your honeymoon. The production of the album is usually completed 8 -10 weeks after the appointment."

Once you have registered and logged in, click the Report Center link in the left-hand menu, then click on the Connect to SHRT Tool link. Your administrator login is the same as your member login. If you failed to previously register and have access to SHRT, visit our website for directions: https://shbp.georgia.gov/enrollment-portal-0. Your ACA files will be found in SHRT within a sub-folder titled ‘ACA’ that is within your ‘FROM_ADP’ folder. There will be 12 files – one for each month of the year – that will be produced for your location. Additionally, there will be 14 Quarterly full files distributed throughout the year. Employers should visit the SHRT to access the ACA File Production Schedules.

Effective Plan Year 2018, the monthly files will be delivered on the 5th business day of the month for the prior month’s data. To capture retroactive activity, we have also added quarterly files for Q1-Q3. During Q4, a cumulative file for the quarter will be delivered through November, and a Quarterly Full File will be delivered in January. This also appears at the end of this document. The monthly ACA Files produced January – December (excluding the Quarterly full files) will include employment and eligibility information as of the last date of the prior month, as well as any retroactive employment and eligibility data as of the last date of the prior month. It is recommended that you download and process your ACA files each month they are posted to SHRT.

Note: Errors that can be fixed by the employer will be sent back to the employer for resolution. All dependents that are in the enrollment portal will be included on files regardless of age and/or medical coverage enrollment status. When an employee is terminated, the system determines their coverage end date by using the employee’s last date paid submitted by the Employer. The coverage end date is the last date of the next month following the last date paid. If the last date paid was 8/28/18, the coverage end date will be 9/30/18. Note: If an employee is terminated and subsequently reinstated (i.e. transfer or rehire) within 30 days, a break in coverage will not exist. As a result, the coverage end date is set to 12/31/9999 and will be displayed on the ACA file as 12/31/9999. Terminated employees will show on each file with an employee information record as long as they are showing as a terminated employee within your location in our system. If they are reinstated into a new location, they will no longer show on your files and will begin to show as an active employee in their new location.

"answer": "I just railed and missed...but I hit – or – I just railed and hit...but I missed!"
},
{
"question": "Is setting sv_fps higher than 20 still recommended?",
"answer": "Everybody knows that when you play online, it takes a bit for your attacks (or any movement, really) to reach the server. The most annoying part about that is that, with a class of weapons called “hitscan” (in Quake 3, the machinegun, shotgun, lightning gun, and railgun), you have to aim ahead of your targets. If you have a consistent enough connection, the server knows exactly where you saw your target when you pressed the button. That's not too far out: it sent you the information on where to draw them in the first place. The end result is that you can put your crosshair on your target, fire, and hit. Unlagged uses a technique called “backward reconciliation” for hitscan weapons' hit tests. For the duration of a hit test, it moves players to where you saw them when you fired. (It knows because it sent you the player origins in the first place, it saves that information up in a history queue, and your fire command contains a timestamp.) After the hit test, it moves them back. Moving player entities around like that is perfectly fine, as long as the entities' states are restored exactly, and as long as no code runs which requires players in their correct state while the server is in a backward-reconciled state. Unlagged is very careful about such things, so it doesn't present any problems. You can pretty much ping as high as you like, but there's a built-in limit of about 800. Unrelated, nasty-to-your-gameplay things start happening around 450-500, though, so 800 is nearly infinite in that regard. Projectiles aren't compensated for, however, so it's still best practice to find a server where your ping is relatively low. Unlagged stores up to 17 player states. On a server where sv_fps is set to 20 (most servers, since that's the default), this means it stores 850ms of data. With Quake 3's built-in lag accounted for, that means you can ping up to 800 and have it still work. As mentioned in the Common Answer, nasty things start happening when you ping above 450ms. Player prediction, in particular, gets bad: if you get 125 FPS, predicting your own player's state becomes impossible to do correctly, since the client engine will only store 64 previous commands. If the client game has only one set of information about a player – his current position, heading, and speed – it can't represent very well what's going on on the server. It needs two sets, so it can draw the player between them. If it needs two sets, it has to wait before releasing the information to be drawn. That means what you see is a perpetually a little behind what's actually going on, in addition to those same effects being caused by your ping. That's what the “built-in lag” refers to. Since most servers run at 20 FPS, they send information every 50ms. Because of this, the built-in lag is usually said to be 50ms. In order to accurately represent what's happening on the server, the client game needs to interpolate player states. It can't interpolate without two states to interpolate between, so the client engine always holds a server snapshot until the next one arrives. Then it will release the earlier one to the client game. Most servers run at 20 FPS, so the amount of time the snapshot is held is usually 50ms. This is directly related to the previous question, so please digest that part first. If you don't get that part, you might as well skip this answer. cl_timenudge tells your client to either 1) wait less, or 2) wait more, before releasing information to be drawn."
},
{
"question": "Remember how the client game needs two sets of information to draw a player accurately?",
"answer": "A negative cl_timenudge setting will cause your client to release information earlier, at the expense of accuracy. A positive cl_timenudge setting will cause it to wait more, effectively simulating Internet lag. Settings below -30 and above 30 are absolutely meaningless. Yes, that means even a negative cl_timenudge setting can't rid you completely of the built-in lag. If you are playing a mod with 50ms lag correction (like OSP, CPMA, or an Unlagged mod with full lag compensation switched off), using a large negative cl_timenudge can screw up your weapon visuals a bit. However, if you want extra lag compensation, you might just choose to do it anyway at the expense of those things. Also, if you have cl_timenudge set to a large negative value in any mod, be aware that where you see other players will not be as correct as if you had it set to 0. That's what you pay in order to lead your instant-hit attacks less – though what you pay is much less in Unlagged. For the most part, the Common Answer will suffice. I have a few things to clarify, though. When cl_timenudge has a negative value, every non-player entity is simply extrapolated earlier. This is just fine, because these entities only require one set of information for extrapolation anyway, and those entities were going to be processed late because of the “built-in lag.” That means, with a negative cl_timenudge everything you see except players is perfectly accurate – it's just a little earlier than it would be otherwise. Now, by default, when the player entities are run through the trajectory function (and they will be because the client game will assume they need to be extrapolated), the output origin is the same as the input origin. They'll only move when a new snapshot arrives. That's what makes players look like they're moving at 20 FPS while everything else is smooth. The change Unlagged and CPMA make is to turn those player entities into extrapolating entities if they don't interpolate, so that the trajectory function will extrapolate them properly. In this way, with a negative cl_timenudge value, they'll be extrapolated just like every other entity. The trade-off is occasional extrapolation error, but that's much, much better than having the players move at 20 FPS. Personally, I believe Unlagged's behavior is more correct. It's definitely more useful. If you perceive it to be so, you are perceiving the effects of something else – probably the “jerky” player's problematic outgoing connection. Sort of. What actually happened was that, when your attacker saw you, you really were in plain sight, to him."

{
"question": "You didn't think you would get total hitscan lag compensation for free, did you?",
"answer": "At any rate, if all you're worried about is getting “shot around a corner,” the effects aren't that big of a deal. You can get used to that. Just remember that Unlagged helps other people hit you in exactly the same way that it helps you hit other people. The answer isn't much different. You, as the target, were backward reconciled to the point where your attacker saw you, which was in plain sight. There's nothing buggy or weird about it – it's just a side-effect. Lag compensation by client-side hit tests has exactly the same problem. That depends on whether or not you're the kind of player that actually does something about impending hitscan attacks. (Most casual players really don't.) If you don't, you have nothing further to worry about. Imagine yourself timing someone else's rail attacks. You jump to the side just before one comes by. The thing is, the hit test against you is done where your attacker saw you, which was before you jumped. You get hit anyway. There are numerous scenarios like this, and all of them have the same solution: whatever you were going to do, do it earlier. How much earlier mostly depends on your attacker's ping. It actually doesn't take that long to get used to. Personally, I believe there's hardly a problem when all the players in a game are pinging within 100ms of each other. That describes most casual and almost all competitive games. The remaining casual games can handle a larger ping spread easily. It's the competitive games in which the ping spread is greater than 100ms that you start having fairness issues. Yes, and – as much as I love to say it, but it's true – it's probably not Unlagged's fault. What you're seeing happens in Quake 3 anyway. It's just more noticeable when your rail trail appears immediately. Okay, there is one new thing in Unlagged that could cause the perception of this happening. It's that the hit sounds and knockback are delayed, but the rail trail isn't. By the time the hit sound comes, the target might have moved away. That can make it look like a false hit. The pictures on the right are taken in third-person with cg_drawBBox set to 1. This is a cheat-protected option in Unlagged that draws player bounding boxes. A bounding box is basically the hit zone. Every player's bounding box, regardless of which model they use, is exactly the same size. What varies between player models is how representative the player model is of the bounding box. I took the pictures with Bitterman, the model I use. Picture 1 shows Bitterman standing in one place. The bounding box representation of him is alright – it's just got empty spaces up both of his sides because he's sort of thin. Hitting one of those empty sides would definitely look like a false hit. At ground level, it's about 1.4 times easier to hit a player if you're at a 45-degree angle to him in relation to the map. If you're up about 22 degrees, it's about 1.6 times easier. Picture 3 shows Bitterman flying forward. This is also what it looks like when a player is strafe-jumping. Right: he's forward in the bounding box, leaving the back half empty. This is where a lot of “you can shoot behind people and still hit them” accusations come from. Picture 4 is Bitterman flying sideways. Notice the empty space in the corners. Picture 5 is Bitterman flying backward. Notice the big, fat empty space at the bottom. My very favorite, though, has got to be Picture 6. It's Bitterman doing a standing jump. Granted, most player models don't have this problem with a standing jump (though all have it at least a little bit), but it illustrates how bad things can get. Bitterman's player model, when jumping, as this picture shows, can generate both a false hit and a false miss. The next two, however, happen to the same degree with every player model. Picture 7 shows Bitterman just after he hit one of the bouncepads by the railgun in q3dm17. Notice that he's almost completely outside of his bounding box. Right: you can hit all that empty space and still hit Bitterman, or you can think you hit Bitterman and actually miss him. After about a half a second of flying through the air, the player model is put back where he belongs. Maybe I'll add that to Unlagged sometime. Anyway, there it is: your player models aren't always the exact representation of “reality” that you always thought they were. You can take this one of two ways, I suppose: you can whine and moan about it, or you can use it to your advantage. You choose. Personally, if I were a professional player, I would learn the orientations of the player bounding boxes in all the maps I played. (It's pretty intuitive: they usually line up exactly with the major walls in the map. It's not a coincidence, it's a constraint placed upon map makers by their tools.) Then I would favor hitscan weapons when I was at a 45-degree angle to my target horizontally, and even moreso when I was 22 degrees up. I would also find a player model to use that was very misrepresentative of my bounding box (to use against the n00bs), and find an enemy model (since most pro games happen with OSP or CPMA, where you can set your enemy's model) that was very representative. I would memorize the best places to aim at for any animation of that enemy model. For instance, it's always best to shoot at the middle of Bitterman's back when he's strafe-jumping. This may be obvious, but it should be said: it takes a little while for your brain to register that a new thing is in your field of vision. That counts for rail trails. Also, since the rail trail tends to hang out a bit (400ms, give or take a few), it's easy for it to look like the initial slug missed. Since your brain tends to judge hits and misses with the rail trail (it sort of draws attention to itself) unless you're concentrating on the crosshair, it could mess you up. I suggest turning the rail trail duration down by setting cg_railTrailTime to 100. That's what I do, anyway. It was amazing how much more consistent my rail shots became after I did that. When you move, it takes about half your ping for the server to get an update that you did. Basically, you see yourself ahead of where you really are on the server. This is the “prediction” part: your own game predicting where you'll be. It's why sometimes you get hit with rockets that you think you dodged and you dodge rockets that look like they should hit you. It of course gets worse the higher your ping is. Now, your game can't always know where you'll be. It can't know for certain whether or not you'll be hit by a rocket, for instance. If you get hit by one, your game will learn that from the server, and will have to handle “prediction error.” It does this by easing you into your correct position over the course of 1/10 second. That's one reason rocket jumping with a high ping looks so weird. It takes a bit of time (about half your ping) for your game to find out that you got hit, though. During this time, your predicted position is completely off."
},
{
"question": "What happens if you fire a railgun during that time?",
"answer": "Right: where you think you fired from isn't where the server thinks you fired from, and you might miss. Or you might think you missed, but hit anyway. Unfortunately, there's nothing much we can do about this one. We just have to deal with it, and assume the server is always correct when it judges a hit test. Another common event besides getting hit by a rocket that will cause prediction error is brushing up against another player. That's why sometimes hit tests in close-up battles look so off. They're not, really – it's just that your game thought you would be in a different place than you actually ended up. A “snapshot” is a chunk of data that you get from the server, sent at the end of every server frame. If the server's sv_fps is set to 20, you get 20 of these in a second. This is how your game knows what's going on around you. A snapshot contains information about other players, projectiles, items, you name it – anything not part of the map itself. If you miss a snapshot, where you see other players will not be correct. Exactly what kind of “not correct” isn't necessarily important. It's that the server, not able to know which snapshots you got and which you didn't, will assume you got them all, and do all of your hit tests accordingly. What the server thinks you saw and what you really saw will not be the same thing. If you have red lines in the lower section of your lag-o-meter, you've got this problem. Receiving snapshots late can cause problems as well. Your client has to keep drawing stuff while it hasn't received an update from the server, and it figures out where to put things by guessing (extrapolating, actually). Sometimes the guesses aren't quite right, and again, what the server thinks you saw and what you really saw will not be the same thing. If you have yellow bits at the top of your lag-o-meter and you aren't using a negative cl_timenudge, there's a good chance you've got this problem. Outgoing packet loss can also cause problems. If a command from you that tells the server to fire your gun doesn't get to the server, it'll get taken care of in the next command. If that one doesn't get there, it'll be taken care of in the one after that, and so on. If this kind of thing happens, the server will get a different idea about the time you pressed the fire button than when you actually did. If your lag-o-meter's green line looks really jagged, you may have this problem. Fortunately, all of these problems are hardly ever bad enough that they'll totally screw your hit tests over. If they're bad enough to do that, they usually cause other problems that keep you from having a decent game anyway. For the most part, they'll just make things look weird every once in a while. You're going to get combinations of all these effects. Sometimes the combination will end up subtractive (they'll sort of cancel each other out), and sometimes they'll end up additive. In any case, I must repeat this: everything I've described happens with or without Unlagged. They're just easier to see when full lag compensation is enabled. Though many have theorized that this is the case (and even asserted it as fact and used it in speaking out against lag compensation), Unlagged does not give high pingers any extra advantage over low pingers. It's obviously going to be more of a help to them. If one friend of mine has a buck and another has five, I'm definitely going to have to give more money to the friend with only one dollar if I want them each to have ten. “Ah hah! But do they each really have ten now?” somebody says. Then he names some scenario, and I show him how it works out perfectly fair. (It's actually never perfectly fair, because even if it appears so, the low-pinger's commands to fire will always reach the server first. He will always win if the situation comes down to a race to fire.) Here are two common ones. The high pinger can shoot around corners. Alright, tossing aside the notion that his target was in plain sight when he fired, sure, it looks like that. Reverse the situation, though: if the high pinger is the target and the low pinger is the attacker, the low pinger sees the “shooting around corners” effect to exactly the same degree as the low pinger did in the original situation. Every assertion of this type becomes quite benign as soon as you reverse the situation. Also, don't forget that, even after you reverse it, the low pinger still wins the race to fire and thus has at least a slight advantage in every case. The high pinger can make tons of shots that should miss. One low-pinger I know tried an interesting experiment: he started some large downloads and played an Unlagged mod. He reported hitting things he shouldn't have – what I call false hits. Even if your friendly neighborhood high pinger has connection problems that bad, they're not going to help his rail percentage. They'll more likely hurt it."
},
{
"question": "Which would you rather have: good network conditions, where players you aim at are guaranteed to be where you saw them for hit tests; or bad network conditions, where the players you aim at have a good chance of actually being elsewhere?",
"answer": "One thing to keep in mind, though, is that the high pingers who have stuck it out with Quake 3 probably have better aim than most, on average. If you give some of them a lag-compensated hitscan weapon, they can be downright scary. It changes the weapon balance, certainly. Since, under normal networking conditions, your hitscan weapons never become less effective, they tend to get used more. What's difficult to determine is exactly when the game gets too overbalanced in favor of hitscan weapons. At what ping a player switches from running through tight corridors holding a rocket launcher to holding a shotgun really depends on the player. Even though I don't have any concrete data (I don't think anyone has), I can offer some observations, based on quite a few months of watching players adapt to hitscan lag compensation. It seems like it takes about a month for things to get back to normal. Players will favor hitscan weapons for a while, being simply enchanted by the fact that they can use them so well. The lightning gun, in particular, gets a lot of time. After a month or so, the players swing back toward their normal weapon selection, realizing that it's more effective – that it's still better to bounce a player with a rocket and rail him in the air than to try to rail him twice. You end up with players who hardly change their game at all, players who will change their game a little more, players who will rely on nothing but hitscan weapons, and everything in between. Fortunately, the vast majority will be the second group. What a player ends up doing depends on his style and ping. So as far as I've seen, it doesn't totally change the weapon balance around. It more restores it to LAN play than screws it up. Obviously, if you're playing a total conversion mod in which almost all the weapons are hitscan, things will be different. When you play the game with lag compensation on, your hitscan attacks are predicted. Even though they haven't really happened yet (your commands need to get to the server before they'll happen), your game shows you what probably will happen. Things look generally consistent. When you spectate another player who's playing with lag compensation on, you see pretty much exactly what's happening on the server. The server does hit tests based on where the attacker saw his potential targets, rather than where they are. That means, for a positive hit test, the rail shaft will be drawn through where the hit target used to be. You'll see the rail shaft at that position, and the target at his new position. There will be a discrepancy, and the rail trial may look like it actually missed. That's it. There's no cheating going on, no weirdness – just a visual inconsistency that it's impossible to get rid of without creating inconsistency of other types. I mentioned already that the position you see yourself in is “predicted.” It takes a little while (about half your ping) for your position on the server to match your predicted position. This can make it difficult to dodge projectiles sometimes. If you set cg_projectileNudge to your ping, it'll be easier. In return, you deal with projectiles looking like they stick into walls before blowing up, and projectiles looking like they start far away from the other player's muzzle. (That last one is fine, though, since it's reflecting your window of useful action.) It's all visual. Anyway, set this to your ping if you can deal with those visual problems. Personally, I love it for online rocket battles. Again, same as above, but with clarifications. The reason for the visual problems is that cg_projectileNudge causes rockets to be extrapolated to a time further in the future. It won't let them go through map geometry, though, so it stops them at the point where they'll strike. A player's position on the server is only ever changed when the server gets an update from the player. (The player's client sends an update after every client frame.) Skipping happens when a server frame goes by without an update from the player. When that happens, in the next snapshot you get from the server, the player will be in exactly the same position he was in the previous snapshot. Enough of that will make a player skip around. Unlagged's skip correction will move a player even if there was no update. Sometimes it's wrong, but not often enough (or it's not wrong enough) that it'll be worse than the actual skipping. Usually it's much, much better. Clarification: Unlagged – with full lag compensation both on and off – does hit tests against what you see. The player's true state isn't actually changed when there's no update, but the state the other clients see is changed. The skip correction can work without messing up the skipping player. You'll see a phone jack above a player's head if enough server frames go by without an update from him that the server can't correct for the skipping. Usually this indicates that the player has a problematic ougoing connection, or a bad path to the server. When the server has g_truePing set to 1 (the default), it uses a different method to calculate players' pings. The old method is more or less a hardware ping: how long it takes packets to make a round trip. This doesn't take into account built-in latencies or cl_timenudge at all. Your ping will probably show a little higher (like 8ms or so), but this way it's more useful. It gives you a better picture of the kind of lag you're dealing with. It's a somewhat common practice to raise the server framerate to 30 or 40 to make the gameplay “smoother.” What “smoother” means in this case is that Quake 3's built-in 50ms lag becomes 33ms or 25ms, and everyone sees things a bit more like how they happen on the server. Those are really the only two reasons to do it. Now, when Unlagged is running, full compensation or not, the built-in lag is taken care of completely. There goes one reason. It also does every hit test based on what players see rather than what's actually happening, so the second reason isn't any longer valid either. So no, I wouldn't advise higher server framerates. There aren't any advantages anymore, and there are plenty of disadvantages."

As a receiver of the eNVD, you will also have the ability to check if the consignor’s PIC is LPA-accredited against NLIS records."
},
{
"question": "What happens at the end of the field trial?",
"answer": "The software provider will keep you informed on whether the field trial is about to end or has ended. Based on outcomes from the field trial, SAFEMEAT will determine whether to progress with a national roll-out of the eNVD system, or if any corrections or changes need to be made to the system prior to launch. If the national roll-out goes ahead, and the software provider has already obtained a full eNVD license from MLA, then the provider will inform you that you can use eNVD software to create, submit and retrieve eNVDs. If the field trial has ended and corrections or changes need to be made to the system prior to the national roll-out, the software provider will inform you to use paper NVDs until the eNVD system is available. If you are still unsure whether the trial has ended, please contact the MLA eNVD trial coordinator, Daniel Meehan on 0419 652 617 and [email protected]."
},
{
"question": "Can I continue to use the eNVD software after the field trial?",
"answer": "If the national roll-out goes ahead, and the software provider has already obtained a full eNVD license from MLA, then you can continue using the eNVD software after the trial. However you will need to discuss with the software provider if there are any costs associated with the continued use of their eNVD software after the trial."
},
{
"question": "Will it cost to use eNVD software after the trial?",
"answer": "Each software provider will have eNVD software with different value-added offerings and pricing models. You will need to review available offerings and determine which software best suits your needs. If you are in an existing contractual arrangement with a software provider, and they have added an eNVD component to their existing software that you are using, you will need to discuss with your provider if they will be charging for this additional eNVD component after the trial. Unlike the current paper NVD cost structure, there will be no ‘per-unit’ costs associated with submitting and retrieving eNVDs after the trial."
},
{
"question": "Will I have a list of providers to choose from after the field trial?",
"answer": "Yes, a list of all licensed eNVD software providers will be published on MLA’s website after the field trial."
},
{
"question": "Will I be able to submit or receive MSA, NFAS and PCAS declarations through the eNVD system during the field trial?",
"answer": "For the field trial, MSA, NFAS and PCAS declarations will not be processed through the eNVD system. Depending on the outcomes of the field trial and SAFEMEAT’s decisions regarding the broader roll-out of the system, the potential to include MSA, NFAS, PCAS and commodity declarations in the eNVD has been recognised and will be further considered."
