"answer": "Sorry, only T-Games development teams can work on our consoles. You can, however, create as much content you like for our consoles via Cartridges and Accessories etc."
},
{
"question": "Can I create my own T-Games console?",
"answer": "No-one is stopping you from creating your own console, but unless you're a part of a T-Games Development Team, your console cannot be officially licensed by T-Games. If you create a console with elements from a T-Games console be sure to credit T-Games when publishing it."

{
"question": "When is your next console going to be released?",
"answer": "If we haven't announced a new console, then there's no release date to be expected. We usually announce the console itself before revealing a release date. However, if we've announced a new console, but not announced a release date, then we are still trying to figure one out. We always announce release dates as soon as possible (which sometimes means release dates may alter for a particular product)."
},
{
"question": "Can I create an official T-Games creation?",
"answer": "Unless you are a T-Games member or have been given special permission to do so, no."

{
"question": "Can they take the TOEFL or IELTS?",
"answer": "Some on-campus students choose, for example, to take TOEFL and focus only on the speaking subtest. Others prefer to take the EPI."
},
{
"question": "How long are TOEFL, IELTS, and EPI scores valid?",
"answer": "TOEFL and IELTS scores must be less than two years old from the first day of class at the proposed term of graduate program entry in order to be valid. Scores must be officially reported to the university. EPI scores remain valid as long as the student is continuously enrolled as a graduate student at Illinois."
},
{
"question": "If a graduate student changes degree programs, is their passing EPI score still valid?",
"answer": "Yes. As long as the student remains continuously enrolled as a graduate student at Illinois, passing EPI scores remain valid. Students may change degree programs with no impact on their TA eligibility."
},
{
"question": "Which graduate students must demonstrate oral English proficiency for teaching?",
"answer": "Requirements for teaching are different from requirements for Graduate admission. Graduate students who wish to be considered for teaching assistantships must provide evidence of spoken English language proficiency, regardless of country of origin, nationality, or the language of instruction in any high school, undergraduate, or graduate degree program they may have previously completed. Exempt: Students who have continuously attended English-medium schools since age 13 in Australia, Anglophone Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, or the United States (except Puerto Rico) are exempt from the English proficiency requirement and are cleared for teaching. Not exempt: Students who completed an undergraduate and/or master's degree at Illinois or another US university are not exempt. Nor are students who were exempted from providing a TOEFL iBT or IELTS score for graduate admission."
},
{
"question": "Are students who completed their undergraduate or master's degrees in the US (or at Illinois) already eligible to be a TA?",
"answer": "Completion of an undergraduate and/or master's degree at Illinois or another US institution does not result in eligibility for appointment as a TA at Illinois. Students who have completed a degree program here or elsewhere in the US are required to demonstrate oral English proficiency for teaching prior to being appointed as a graduate TA. See exemptions here. The proficiency levels required for success as a student and as a teacher differ substantially. Students must achieve a high level of oral English proficiency for teaching. The level of oral English proficiency required to be successful as a student may be lower, given that students often rely most heavily on their English writing, reading, and listening skills to complete their coursework. Additionally, oral English proficiency may decline over the course of several years while here in the US if the student is not using English frequently and not actively taking steps to maintain proficiency or improve. Because of these factors, the university requires testing to ensure that TAs and their students have a successful teaching and learning experience."
},
{
"question": "What about students who have a passing TOEFL or IELTS speaking score received for undergraduate admission here at Illinois or another US institution?",
"answer": "Passing scores received prior to undergraduate admission are expired and no longer valid. Scores must be less than two years old from the first day of class at the proposed term of graduate program entry in order to be valid for TA eligibility. Students with expired passing TOEFL or IELTS speaking scores must retake the TOEFL or IELTS or take the EPI."
},
{
"question": "Do students need to pass the EPI to be appointed as a Grader?",
"answer": "Illinois' policy for Graders may be found here. The EPI will take place during each semester. EPI dates are posted and updated regularly on the EPI Schedule section of this website."
},
{
"question": "How do departments register their students for the EPI?",
"answer": "The EPI Coordinator emails Department EPI contacts a link to the EPI registration form. Departments can expect to receive the registration email in early September (for Fall), early February (for Spring), and early June (for Summer)."
},
{
"question": "How frequently can students take the EPI?",
"answer": "Students are allowed 3 attempts at the EPI and may take it no more than once per semester. Example: A student takes the EPI in the Fall semester and receives a failing score. He or she then enrolls in an approved ESL course in the following Spring term. The student is eligible to re-take the EPI as early as late April, provided the student is in good standing in the course. If the student receives a failing score after the April interview, he or she may enroll in an ESL course in the following Summer term and retake the EPI as early as late July, if in good standing in the course. Important note: Some students may need substantial time to develop oral English proficiency sufficient for teaching. In particular, students who received a TOEFL speaking score of 20 or below or an EPI score of 3 or below may need a year or more of ESL study to be ready to teach. Additionally, the pass rate is about 40% for students who take the EPI three times in 12 months or less. Language improvement takes time and dedication--there are no shortcuts."
},
{
"question": "How can a student cancel their EPI?",
"answer": "Department contacts should immediately send an email to [email protected] to tell us about cancellations. Students may not cancel by contacting CITL directly. Whenever possible, departments should cancel exams at least 7 days prior to the scheduled interview time, so the time slot can be offered to another student. If the exam is not cancelled at least two business days prior to the exam and the student does not attend, this \"no show\" will be counted as one of the student's three EPI attempts. Cancellations within the 2-day window: In the rare cases when a student discovers at the last minute that they cannot attend the EPI due to illness or an emergency, please contact us to cancel the interview. The EPI Coordinator may ask for additional information to determine whether this instance should count as an EPI attempt."
},
{
"question": "What if an examinee doesn't go to his/her interview?",
"answer": "If the student doesn't attend his or her scheduled EPI and the department has not notified CITL of the cancellation as least two business days in advance, this absence will be recorded as a \"no show\" and will count as one of the student's three EPI attempts. The 15-minute interview begins with a warm-up, continues with the core section, and ends with a wrap-up. During the core section of the interview, the interviewer will ask general questions about the examinee and about university life. During the interview, test takers will also be asked to explain academic terms from the field of study of the desired teaching assistantship (provided by the interviewer). The explanations simulate language tasks that are typical of an academic classroom setting. A sample EPI video appears here. The EPI assesses test takers’ speaking ability in terms of five features: Fluency, Linguistic Accuracy, Discourse Management, Question Handling and Listening, and Listener effort. Fluency: smoothness in delivery and frequency of hesitations and re-starts. Linguistic Accuracy: pronunciation and grammatical accuracy (minor errors may occur); vocabulary range appropriate for teaching. Discourse Management: the ability to develop and organize ideas and to speak at length. Question Handling and Listening: the ability to give appropriate answers, and negotiation skills for communication. Listener Effort: the ease or difficulty in processing the examinee’s speech. Students receive a holistic score ranging from 2-6. Communication is always effective; speaker has sophisticated language skills appropriate for a teaching context. Communication is generally effective; speaker has satisfactory language skills at ranges appropriate for a teaching context. Communication is generally effective; however due to isolated weakness, communication is occasionally difficult. Further ESL coursework is required during or before the first semester of teaching in order to refine the speaker’s language skills for a teaching context. Communication is somewhat effective. Inconsistent performance indicates speaker is not ready to be a classroom instructor. Communication is marginally effective; speaker has limited language skills for a teaching context. Communication is generally not effective; speaker has unsatisfactory language for a teaching context."
},
{
"question": "How do I access my students’ EPI results?",
"answer": "Within 10 days after a student completes the EPI, the student’s Official EPI Score Report will be placed in a secure location accessible only to your department. You should receive an email notification when the report is available. If you need assistance accessing your students’ score reports, please let us know so we can help. EPI scores also will be available in Banner approximately 2 weeks after a student’s EPI date. EPI Department Contacts are responsible for notifying their students about their EPI scores in FERPA-compliant manner. Students who receive a score of 4CP on the EPI may teach provided they enroll in (and successfully complete) ESL 508: Seminar for International TAs. They may take this course prior to their first semester of teaching OR may take it concurrently with their first semester of teaching. To enroll in the course, students should contact Dr. Suzanne Franks, coordinator of the ESL-ITA courses."
},
{
"question": "Can students who receive a 4CP on the EPI retake it?",
"answer": "No. A score of 4CP is a passing score and indicates that the student is eligible to teach. Only students scoring 2, 3, or 4 may retake the EPI."
},
{
"question": "What if a student doesn't pass?",
"answer": "2) start working with an approved EPI tutor. Students must meet with the tutor at least once a week for a minimum of 8 weeks. Students who receive a 3 on their second EPI attempt are strongly encouraged to arrange for an individual language assessment meeting with Dr. Suzanne Franks, the ITA Program Coordinator in the Linguistics Department. This one-hour consultation is free of charge. At this meeting, the student will be given a diagnostic exam. Based on that exam, a study plan will be developed to guide the student’s oral English improvement. Students who fail the EPI may also take the TOEFL or IELTS as often as needed to achieve the minimum required speaking score. The Department of Linguistics offers English as a Second Language (ESL) courses designed to help current ITAs and prospective ITAs develop their oral English and teaching skills. Enrollment in ESL 508 is limited to students who receive a score of Conditional Pass on the EPI and to current ITAs who would like to improve their English proficiency or pedagogical skills. Contact Dr. Suzanne Franks for details. The English Proficiency Interview (EPI) tutors list is specifically for students who need to prepare for the EPI, including those who need to complete an English Improvement Activity in order to retake the EPI. Tutors on this list are approved tutors for the English Proficiency Interview (EPI). Free high-quality online resources, including http://www.englishcentral.com, https://listenwise.com, and https://www.duolingo.com/, for working on academic and everyday English, including pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, listening, and fluency."

"question": "Can I trade my Forex Account if I am not using my main computer?",
"answer": "Forex Trading is available 24 hours daily from 5:00pm EST Sundays through 5:00pm EST on Fridays, including most holidays. The only difference is that there is no capital at risk when trading on the MT4 demo system. The demo platform is fully functional and, more importantly, the bid/ask rates available in the simulator are the EXACT rates available to our live trading clients. The simulated system allows you to sample the ability to deal instantly from live, streaming currency quotes. Simply go to our account section and complete the online application. When your application is processed and a minimum deposit of at least $250 USD is made, you will be able to start trading. The minimum deposit to open an online account is $250. The minimum deposit for an ECN Premiere Account is $500. The minimum transaction size is .01 lot (micro lot or 1000 currency units), with a minimum margin deposit of $2 (at 500:1 leverage). Mini lots (.1 lot or 10,000 currency units per lot) and standard lots (100,000 units per lot) can also be traded in the same account. The initial margin requirement is 0.2% ($2 per micro lot traded, $20 per mini lot traded, and $200 per standard lot traded) for accounts that use the maximum leverage, which is 500:1. Minimum trade sizes are 1,000 base currency units (micro lot), 10,000 units (mini lots), and 100,000 units (standard lot). We will only execute trades on margin if the client has sufficient funds in his or her account. Unless specific settlement instructions are provided, all open positions will automatically be rolled forward to the next day's value date at the end of each business day, 4:30pm EST. All rolls will be done at competitive rollover rates (swap rates), and depending on the currency pairs involved, trades will be executed where the trader will either earn or pay away points, depending on the interest rate differential between the two currencies. The MT4 software provides each client with a wide range of trading tools, including technical analysis and charting, real-time news feeds, real-time profit and loss analysis, and full back office capabilities. Daily FX commentary from market professionals will also be provided. Furthermore, Forex trust accounts are also an option for any customer, regardless of the account size – for maximum safety of client funds."

"question": "Can I trade my account if I am not using my main computer?",
"answer": "Yes. If you are traveling or do not have access to a computer with an Internet connection, you may execute trades over your smart phone or PDA with our MetaTrader (MT4) mobile trading platform. Absolutely. When trading via the phone, you will have access to the same experienced FX dealers as when you trade over the Internet. You must provide the dealer with your account number and password. To withdraw funds from an existing account, you will need to log into the member's area with the login you'll receive once you open your account. Withdrawals need to be made in the same manner as the deposit; for example, if an account was funding via wire transfer, withdrawals must be done via wire transfer as well.

To expedite processing, please indicate your name and account number on all wires and withdrawal requests and all other correspondence regarding your account."

{
"question": "Q: Who can apply for Music Academy scholarships?",
"answer": "A: Any student enrolled in private instrument and vocal lessons, ensembles, or any other ongoing music related class/activity at the Music Academy is eligible to apply for a scholarship."
},
{
"question": "Q: What is the scholarship application process?",
"answer": "A: The Music Academy has a very simple scholarship application process. After an initial inteview with the Music Academy Director, the next step for applicants is to fill out a financial assessment form with required financial documentation. This form may be safely and securely completed online by clicking HERE. There is a $30.00 processing fee that must accompany this application. Completed financial assessment applications are sent to a third party financial assessment company to determine financial need. The Music Academy currently uses FACTS Management Company out of Lincoln, Nebraska. FACTS will analyze each applicant’s financial information to determine financial need and ability to pay. These “ability to pay” figures are given to the Music Academy Scholarship Committee upon completion. The Scholarship Committee will review the FACTS recommendations for each applicant and determine final scholarship award amounts. All decisions made by the Scholarship Committee are final. The entire process takes approximately two weeks from the date required financial documents are received by FACTS."
},
{
"question": "Q: How long are scholarships funded?",
"answer": "A: Scholarships for private lessons are normally funded for a four month period beginning in January, May, and September of each calendar year. Ensemble scholarships are funded for a period of one semester. However, scholarship fund availability will ultimately determine the length and amount of the scholarship awarded. Applicants must reapply for their scholarship at the end of each four month period and resubmit financial information to FACTS on an annual basis. If a student decides to leave the Music Academy, for any reason, the unused portion of their scholarship will go back into our general scholarship fund to be awarded to future, qualified applicants."
},
{
"question": "Q: How does the Music Academy Scholarship Committee determine scholarship amounts?",
"answer": "A: The Music Academy Scholarship Committee takes several factors into consideration when awarding scholarship amounts, however, the primary factor is the applicant’s financial need and ability to pay as determined by FACTS. Since it is the desire of the Scholarship Committee to grant as much money to as many students as possible, secondary factors may include the number of scholarship applications we receive as well as the total amount of donations made available to our general scholarship fund."
},
{
"question": "Q: What are the requirements and obligations of scholarship recipients?",
"answer": "A: The Music Academy has high expectations for all scholarship recipients. Significant preparation and mandatory attendance on the scholarship recipient’s part is required for all private lessons, ensemble rehearsals, concerts, recitals, and music classes that are funded by our scholarship program. Students and their families may also be periodically asked to participate in scholarship fund raising events during the year. Attendance and participation at these events are strongly encouraged. Each student will also volunteer a minimum of two hours per month in a local non-profit as part of their scholarhip/community service requirment."
},
{
"question": "Q: Can an awarded scholarship be revoked?",
"answer": "A: Yes. Scholarships can be revoked upon the recommendation of a Music Academy instructor to the Scholarship Committee if students are not fulfilling their preparation and attendance obligations as well as their community service project."

The trend, as reported in Wikipedia itself, of HDB flats shrinking up to 10 – 12% across a 10 year period from 1996 to 2006, made it necessary for people to look for ways to increase living spaces in their homes. With the advent of shoe box units, spaces became even more confined, it became a must for these residents to find furniture to maximize their living space. The market demand was there, thus Space-Saving Furniture Systems was born to cater to these needs. Q3."

"question": "What are the main differences between the previous definition of “chronically homeless” and the definition included in the final rule?",
"answer": "Stays in institutions of fewer than 90 days where they were residing in a place not meant for human habitation, in an emergency shelter, or in a safe haven immediately prior to entering the institution, do not constitute as a break and the time in the institution counts towards the total time homeless. Where a stay in an institution is 90 days or longer, the entire time is counted as a break and none of the time in the institution can count towards a person’s total time homeless. The final rule also establishes recordkeeping requirements for documenting chronically homeless status, as further described in FAQ 2755."

"question": "✍️ What kind of content services do you offer?",
"answer": "I write conversion copy with a UX twist. I develop conversion strategies for a specific audience. I build out each strategy into logical sections that form a buying journey. I distill each section to fit wireframes, design standards, and tone guidelines. Voilà. Your beautiful website is now a powerful buying journey. Landing pages and website content are a great match for my skills. I’ve also started writing video scripts and working with conversational chat."

"question": "💰 What are your rates?",
"answer": "My rates relate to the complexity of the product, the challenge, and the deliverables. Word count isn’t particularly relevant, as it’s easy to write 2,000 words about a topic – but extremely difficult to condense it into focused 500-word sales pitch. Research, strategy, and planning are where skilled copywriters spend most of their time. As a ballpark, my landing pages start at £1,000."

Product designers (electric skateboards, high-end homeware). I specialise in products that use AI (artificial intelligence) and ML (Machine learning). I love adventure sports and I’m especially keen to work with gadgets and tech used for travel, adventure, photography, sports, and film-making. I want to make a positive impact on the world. I strongly believe in my mission and in making emerging technologies more relevant to people’s lives. It’s a privilege to work with companies that are making life more exciting and sustainable. ‘Alternative’ healthcare products based on claims that aren’t backed up by peer-reviewed clinical studies. Dodgy ‘get rich quick’ financial products. If your product can’t help people (or the planet) then I can’t help you."

{
"question": "🐋 Do you offer charity discounts?",
"answer": "Yes, But I only work with companies that match my skills and values. I’ve always loved adventure, music, cinema and creating content. I studied international relations, trained as a journalist and wrote for top British newspapers, then spent six years in international sales for tech companies (SME and FTSE100). I was trained in sales and behavioural psychology by both a commission-only advertising sales team; and a multinational technology company with a consultative approach. I pitched and closed CEOs, marketing directors, government ministers and senior university academics on five continents and enjoyed learning how to sell across cultures. But my mind became fixated on content. I got back into music and recorded tracks for Red Bull – including their BC One championships. I moved to Australia for more surf and adventure sports in 2017, but realised it was time to build my own business and focus on content creation. I started with traditional sales copy and worked for local businesses, but quickly built my portfolio up and got breaks with a couple of agencies – where I started working on content for large technology businesses. In 2018 I discovered the digital nomad scene in Bali and founded my business in London. Today I work with a range of multi-national and startup tech companies while travelling the world and collaborating with fellow content creators.

https://hypertension.cemmlibrary.org/Resources/Frequently-Asked-Questions-(FAQ) | [
{
"question": "What do the numbers mean?",
"answer": "Blood pressure refers to the force that your heart creates in order to push blood to the organs of your body. Along the way, your blood travels through arteries and arterioles to the capillaries that nourish your tissues. Veins then bring the blood back to the heart to pick up fresh oxygen. Your heart is the driving force for all of this. It can increase your blood pressure by beating more forcefully or more frequently. Blood pressure is recorded as two numbers — the systolic pressure, as your heart beats, over the diastolic pressure, as your heart relaxes between beats. The measurement is written one above the other, with the systolic number on top and the diastolic number on the bottom. Blood pressure that is higher than normal over a period of time is called high blood pressure, or hypertension. The normal range of systolic blood pressure is 90 to 130, and for diastolic blood pressure the normal range is 60 to 90, so numbers that exceed these normal ranges would be categorized as high blood pressure."
},
{
"question": "What effect does high blood pressure have on my body?",
"answer": "High blood pressure causes your heart to work harder when distributing blood throughout your body. If left untreated, high blood pressure can cause damage to your heart, kidneys, brain, and other organs. Although in most cases the cause of hypertension is not known, we do know of several factors that may contribute to high blood pressure. Those factors include being overweight, eating too much salt, and over-indulging in alcohol on a regular basis. Also at risk are people who smoke or use tobacco, or who do not get enough exercise. These factors are considered controllable risk factors because a person can make lifestyle changes to help reduce their effects. Uncontrollable risk factors include race, family history, age, and gender. For example, African Americans develop high blood pressure more often than others, and it tends to occur earlier and be more severe. Heredity may also play a part in your risk of hypertension. If your parents or other close blood relatives have high blood pressure, you’re more likely to develop it. Since there are usually no obvious physical symptoms, the only way to know if you have hypertension is to have your blood pressure checked at least once each year."
},
{
"question": "I was told I have “white coat hypertension.” What exactly is this?",
"answer": "Your blood pressure is measured by placing a pressure cuff around your upper arm. When the cuff is inflated, it presses on a large artery in your arm, briefly stopping the blood flow. Next, the air is released slowly, and your provider listens with a stethoscope. When the pressure of the blood coming from the heart beating is equal to the pressure of the cuff, small amounts of blood flow through and make a “whooshing” sound. Your provider listens carefully for this sound while watching the blood pressure gauge, which gives a reading in millimeters of mercury. This first measurement is always the top number, which represents your systolic blood pressure. When the last pulse is heard through the stethoscope, the blood is flowing smoothly through the artery and no more “whooshing” sounds are heard. Your provider records the number shown on the pressure gauge at that moment. This is the bottom number of a blood pressure measurement, or your diastolic blood pressure. It represents the amount of pressure in the circulatory system when your heart is resting between beats."
},
{
"question": "Can I take my blood pressure myself?",
"answer": "Yes. Self-monitoring allows you to check your blood pressure several times each day, and to keep track of it over a specific period of time. Your provider can probably suggest a reasonably priced, reliable home monitor. I heard high blood pressure may lead to stroke."
},
{
"question": "Is this true?",
"answer": "If high blood pressure goes untreated it certainly may lead to a stroke or other serious health challenges. High blood pressure is the single most important risk factor for stroke. Stroke is also a leading cause of serious, long-term disability."
},
{
"question": "What happens if I don’t take care of my high blood pressure?",
"answer": "High blood pressure is known as “the silent killer.” Most people who have high blood pressure don’t even know they have it. Some people may experience headaches, dizziness, and blurred eyesight as the first symptoms. If left untreated it can cause a lot of damage to the heart, kidneys, brain, and blood vessels."
},
{
"question": "What should I do if I have side effects from my high blood pressure medication?",
"answer": "If you experience any side effects make a note of the side effects that occurred, when they occurred, if the medication was taken in combination with any other medication, and how severe the side effects were. Discuss all of this information with your provider to determine if a change in your blood pressure medication is necessary."
},
{
"question": "If I improve my lifestyle, do I still need to take a high blood pressure medication?",
"answer": "Making a lifestyle change is a step in the right direction, but lifestyle changes alone may not be enough to gain control of your high blood pressure. I’m overweight and have high blood pressure."
},
{
"question": "Why is this dangerous?",
"answer": "Being overweight increases your risk of developing high blood pressure. In fact, blood pressure rises as body weight increases. Losing even 10 pounds can lower blood pressure, and it has the greatest effect for those who are overweight and already have hypertension. Being overweight is also a risk factor for heart disease. It increases your chance for developing high blood cholesterol and diabetes — two major risk factors for heart disease."
},
{
"question": "Does physical activity help my high blood pressure?",
"answer": "Being physically active is one of the most important steps you can take to prevent or control high blood pressure. It also helps reduce your risk of heart disease. I’ve been diagnosed with high blood pressure."
},
{
"question": "Who should I tell?",
"answer": "Be sure to notify any medical practitioners such as your provider, physical therapist, dentist, or anyone else who treats you for health-related issues. It’s also a good idea to let your pharmacist know."
},
{
"question": "What are the long-term effects of high blood pressure on kidneys?",
"answer": "The kidneys act as filters to rid the body of wastes. Over time, high blood pressure can narrow and thicken the blood vessels of the kidneys. The kidneys then filter less fluid, and waste builds up in the blood, leading them to possibly fail altogether. When this happens, medical treatment, such as dialysis or kidney transplant may be needed. I enjoy an occasional drink."
},
{
"question": "Can that affect my high blood pressure?",
"answer": "Drinking too much alcohol can raise your blood pressure. It also can harm your liver, brain, and heart. Alcoholic drinks also contain calories, which matter if you’re trying to lose weight. If you do drink alcoholic beverages, it’s a good idea to have only a moderate amount. Check with your provider about the amount that’s right for you."
},
{
"question": "Why is blood pressure measured in millimeters of mercury?",
"answer": "A millimeter of mercury is a commonly used measurement of pressure in medicine and physiology. Mercury is especially sensitive to acoustic pressures and has long been used to measure pressure in many scientific and technical fields. Mercury sphygmomanometers, considered to be the most accurate, use a column of mercury to measure blood pressure and never need to be calibrated."

},
{
"question": "It seemed to be a hell, isn’t it?",
"answer": "By the way, if your coursework still seems to be a hell for you, don’t hesitate to turn to our site https://courseworkz.com/ and get the best one in short terms. Coming back to the main question, the easiest and the most precise answer on the question you see on the top is–“IN NO WAY”. Really, we didn’t have at least 10% of all those things that surround today’s kids. Honestly, we can’t assume that kids of the 21st century are better. We can even take pity on them. Nowadays children are less stress-resistant then we were and are now. Moreover, we can say that those Music lessons made us heroes in our own eyes. Standing and looking at the class full of mockers is one of the things why we all used to wake up in a cold sweat at nights till Music lessons ended. Anyway, lessons with technologies are getting much better, and we can’t keep silent about it anymore. Kids of the 21st century were born in the right period."
},
{
"question": "What is happening with technologies on music lessons today?",
"answer": "According to the last researchers, teachers of music changed their attitude and started to be very good users of high-tech technologies. More than 75% of teachers fully agree and support the use of technologies on the lessons. Moreover, they expand the curriculum. Also, they suggest that modern technologies motivate students to learn, as it is one more idea to use the telephone more, and take it to hands. In addition, it motivates students to respond to a variety of learning styles. But in contrast, only 11% of teachers use an interactive table, and almost 60% still uses the whiteboard which is extremely not good on the lessons where you teach Music. 40% of professors started and successfully continue to use tablets and e-readers. Hearts are getting to be full of warmth and love when we see that teachers of Music are teaching not with papers, but with cool gadgets."
},
{
"question": "The most interesting is that teachers started to use their gadgets not just to play, or surf the Net, as any other person does, but also to keep lessons online there, sharing with other?",
"answer": "Thus, students can get to know what will be the next topic, and how to get prepared for it. Almost 40% of teachers know different cool apps where students can create even his / her own song and show it to the public. It is huge!"
},
{
"question": "Show me any other teacher, for example, of Geography who knows the same?",
"answer": "And the last but not least–teachers use technologies to make a music production studio – including composition, rehearsal, recording, editing, distributing and lots more. All those tables, boards, and other devices increase the level of students’ engagement and the desire to learn more. As a result, they become more interested, and the results appear to be much better. Here we leave several apps that are really exciting for a person who is obsessed with music like we are. Ear Trainer is probably the worst thing for students. They almost hate teaching this skill as it seems to be very boring for them. Perfect Ear is one of the apps that will help you make this process more pleasant. Moreover, it is available on iOS and Android, so no matter what Smartphone you have, it will work on it. Also, as a teacher, you will have online access to this app’s results that is why you will know student’s results even sitting at home with hot tea and cupcake."
},
{
"question": "What is covered there?",
"answer": "Well, everything: note names, intervals, chords, rhythms, key signatures and scales. Also, there is a very good test, so you can find the best student with the best result and honor his efforts. Believe us; with this app, you will enjoy the process of ear training. SoundCloud– You can even get to know what this app is about after its name. A lot of schools use SoundCloud to provide resources to music students and ensemble members. Moreover, this app is free to use, and the student can access the music you download and upload wherever you and they are."
},
{
"question": "Isn’t it awesome?",
"answer": "You upload, says what the home task is, and they do it at home practicing the new song very fast. You are allowed to download your own results for your teacher. Of course, you can’t download a video. But come on, you have YouTube for those things; there you can even become a blogger. forScore – store all your music in this library. Real Piano Pro or Solfeg.io – are good places to play a full 88-key piano like on a real one. These apps are full of songs that your students will definitely like. They are also free to sign up, but if you don’t pay as a subscriber, you will have only a few free songs. But it has only advantages; you don’t need to understand any hard buttons like some music apps. The interface is very simple and includes only important information. Guitar Lab – here you can get video lessons. This app is similar to the previous one, the only advantage–you study how to play the guitar. Easy to use and to understand. To sum it up, we are really happy to assume, that the world isn’t standing at the one place. It is developing and growing very fast. So, let’s not miss the opportunity to know and use as fast as we can."

"answer": "A: Regrettably, no. By contacting us ahead of time, you can pick up items from our mailing house, or we can have larger orders delivered to your hotel or place of stay."
},
{
"question": "Q: Can RSM help me determine the value of my coin or collection?",
"answer": "A: No. Determining the value of a coin most often involves physically looking at the quality of the coin, and noticing flaws or other factors that will lessen or increase its value. RSM does not appraise the value of coins, as we do not have the capacity or formal experience to judge a coins quality in minute detail. Therefore, we suggest that you bring your coin to several coin dealers for appraisal, as the results may vary from one dealer to the next. Check your local telephone directory to find coin dealers in your area, or refer to advertisements from reputable appraisers in publications such as Coin World, the Numismatist, Numismatic News or World Coin News."

{
"question": "Q: Where can I purchase a coin or coin set that is not featured at rsmint.com or scandmint.com?",
"answer": "A: RSM mainly deals in current and semi-current issues from countries outside of the USA and Canada. For previous releases, or issues that are sold out because of strong demand, we suggest you contact us so that we can refer this to our supplier network to see if the item is available in the secondary market. Please be advised that the secondary market often requires that a premium price has to be paid for the purchase."
},
{
"question": "Q: Why does RSM not offer single circulation coins or banknotes?",
"answer": "A: RSM mostly purchases products directly from commercial national mints or central banks with their own commercial departments. In most countries, the national currency is the property of the central bank, and mints have to buy coins back from the central bank in order to produce and market coin sets, proof sets, commemorative coins etc. The seignorage (the difference between cost price and face value) is the profit for the Central Bank, and the selling price to the national mints is most commonly the face value of the currency. As the profit in the sales of regular circulating coins therefore belongs to the Central Bank, most mints do not actively market coins in rolls, bags, lots etc. where there is no added value. Banknotes are most often handled directly by the Central Banks for direct distribution to national commercial banks, and commercial activity is therefore very limited."

"question": "If I refuse to answer questions put to me by the police, won’t that make me look guilty?",
"answer": "When the police want to question you, they may tell you that if you are innocent you have nothing to worry about."
},
{
"question": "You may in fact feel that you have nothing to hide, so why not cooperate?",
"answer": "The fact is that the police already suspect you are guilty of a crime, or they would not be talking to you in the first place. Their goal in questioning you is not to “clear things up” so they can rule you out as a suspect; it is to get you to say something incriminating, false or contradictory that they can use against you. Law enforcement officers, from the Florida state police to federal agents, are trained experts in this process. Don’t worry about how refusing to answer questions might make you look; it makes you look smart. When the police want to ask you questions, be polite but firm, and exercise your right to talk to your attorney before you answer any questions. Then call the Tony Moss Firm, L.L.C. for assistance."
},
{
"question": "Can they search my home or car without a warrant?",
"answer": "In general, a warrant is constitutionally required before the police can search you or your property. There are, however, many exceptions to the warrant requirement. There are more exceptions allowing a search of the car than the home, but even a home search can be conducted without a warrant in some circumstances. And in some instances, the police can conduct a quick search of your person (a pat-down or stop-and-frisk) even without probable cause to believe you have committed any crime. Search and seizure laws can be highly technical and complex. You don’t need to become an expert on police searches; that is your attorney’s job. What you need to know is that if the police tell you they are going to conduct a search, you should not resist or interfere. If the search turns out to be improper, your lawyer can have any evidence suppressed and may even be able to have any charges against you dismissed. Finally, it is vitally important to distinguish whether the police are telling you they are going to do a search without your consent or are asking your permission to search. Even without a warrant or probable cause, the police can always search you or your property if you give them permission to do so. In fact, the police will often ask for your consent to search during any routine stop, just to see what might turn up. You always have the right to refuse your consent to search and should always exercise this right. Even if you have nothing to hide, there is no telling what the police might find and what significance they may attach to it. Don’t help the police build their case against you."

{
"question": "When should I accept a plea agreement and when should I go to trial?",
"answer": "This is an important question that you should discuss with your attorney. The answer depends upon a number of factors, including the strength of the prosecutor’s case, the strength of your defenses, and the consequences you face if convicted. Your lawyer should discuss the risks and benefits of negotiating a plea or going to trial in your particular case. Ultimately, that decision is yours to make, although your attorney should advise you on your options. Tony Moss has over 20 years of criminal trial experience and has successfully represented clients in plea agreements and trials."
},
{
"question": "Should I take the stand at trial and testify on my own behalf?",
"answer": "This is another question to discuss with your lawyer, because the answer depends on your own unique situation. You have a constitutional right not to testify if you don’t want to, and neither the prosecutor nor the judge can make you. On the other hand, testifying on your own behalf can make a powerful positive impact on the jury, yet it can open you up to intense cross-examination from the prosecution that could hurt your case. Although for the most part trial strategy should be left in the hands of your lawyer, the decision whether to testify is up to you. The Tony Moss Firm believes in including the client as a valuable, contributing member of the defense team. As our client, you will be informed of your options and the pros and cons of testifying so that you can make the decision that is best for you in your own unique circumstances."

Any media that you add before running out of storage space is available for you across devices (unless the project was deleted or project syncing was turned off). The soundtracks provided in Premiere Rush can be used freely for personal or commercial use. See the Adobe Terms below. To use a soundtrack from Rush, select Rush Soundtracks from the Favorites section of the Media Browser."

https://stratisfaq.com/what-do-mining-and-staking-mean | [
{
"question": "Want a better shot at earning some BTC?",
"answer": "You’ll have to spend money on a better rig. For PoS networks, like the Stratis network, a staking node is a wallet which downloads the full blockchain and contains a number of coins which are then used by the node operator to stake. When you stake, every coin you are staking with has a chance of forging (the staking equivalent of mining) the next block of the blockchain. The more coins you have staking, the higher the chance that your node will be successful. When a node stakes successfully, it will receive the transaction fees for the transactions contained in the block and in some cases newly created coins as a reward. Stratis, for example, creates a new block every 64 seconds. The staking node which succeeds in forging this block will receive the newly minted 1 STRAT + the transaction fees associated with that block. Where miners’ principal consideration is the hashrate of their mining rig, stakers’ main concern is the number of coins they are staking with compared to the total number of coins staking on the network. Every staking coin competes with every other staking coin for the chance to forge the next block. Not every coin in the overall supply of coins will be staking at any one time. This is because some people may be keeping their coins in cold storage, others may not choose to stake 24/7, etc. The number of coins you are staking with constitutes your staking weight. The ratio of this against the total network weight (every other coin being staked) determines how likely you are on average to successfully forge a new block. For example, if 1m coins in total are currently staking, and you are staking 10,000 coins, you will be forging 1 in every 100 new blocks on average."

"question": "What can actually go wrong with your cars Air Conditioning?",
"answer": "Automotive air conditioning systems are designed to leak. Car engines vibrate, the pipe work moves and the rubber ‘O’ rings expand and contract, all allowing leakage. Over a period of 12 months up to as much as 70% of the air conditioning refrigerant may have escaped from the system, leaving the air conditioning system to gradually perform poorly and eventually stop. The Compressor is mounted on the engine and is driven by a belt from the engine’s crankshaft pulley. The most common reasons for failure are lack of oil, pulley bearing wear, electromagnetic coil burn-out and lack of regular servicing. The Condenser is usually located at the front of the vehicle behind the grill, it can become damaged by debris or corroded by materials from the road. It can also fail because of weak spots in its construction and lack of regular servicing. This is a very important part of the air conditioning system and should be changed at least every two years or when the system is repaired. The most common reasons for failure, is corrosion and desiccant deterioration, which leads to severe system failure. The most common reasons for failure are contamination, moisture and lack of regular servicing. The most common reasons for failure are corrosion, weak spots in construction and lack of regular servicing. Your air-conditioning system is alive! Whenever you switch on your air conditioning, bacteria, fungi and other micro-organisms can reach then interior of the vehicle via the ventilation equipment.These pathogens cause unpleasent allergic reactions in many people: sneezing, coughing, streaming eyes etc. On top of this, the micro-organisms cause a bad musty smell.Disinfection of your air conditioning system guarantees clean air and a great climate!"

"question": "How does an HMO work?",
"answer": "HMO stands for Health Maintenance Organization and is a type of health insurance. An HMO offers many healthcare services to its members. HMOs are sometimes called health plans or managed care organizations. HMOs are different from other kinds of health insurance in the way that they manage the cost of healthcare and the services offered. Members may have a co-pay for services, which the patient needs to pay before services are covered by the plan. Co-payments and deductibles help keep the cost of healthcare down. HMOs may require referrals for some services before the HMO will pay. At HDMG members visit their Primary Care Provider who will determine if a referral is necessary and submits the referral for approval. It is recommended to obtain a referral to avoid financial responsibility for unauthorized services. A Medicare Advantage Plan is a type of Medicare health plan offered by a private company that contracts with Medicare (a government plan) to provide you with all your benefits (Part A and in most cases, Part B). Medicare Advantage Plans include Health Maintenance Organizations (HMO), Preferred Provider Organizations (PPO), Private Fee-for-Service Plans, Special Needs Plans, and Medicare Medical Savings Account Plans. If you’re enrolled in a Medicare Advantage Plan, Medicare services are covered through the plan and are not paid for by Medicare. Most Medicare Advantage Plans offer prescription drug coverage. If your Primary Care Physician determines that you need to be seen by a Specialist or need durable medical equipment, he/she will submit a referral to HDMG’s Utilization Management Department. The Utilization Management committee will review the referral by applying established criteria, determine medical necessity, and ensure that any tests needed have been completed. If your physician requests an urgent referral, it will be processed within 72 hours. For non-urgent requests, you will be notified of the determination within seven business days. If the referral is modified, you will be notified of the modification, along with further information and instructions. If the referral is denied, notification will be mailed to you, along with the appeal process. You have the right to appeal a denied or modified referral; you may begin your appeal by contacting your insurance company. Your Primary Care Physician will be notified of the status of your referral also."
},
{
"question": "How do I follow up on a referral if it has been longer than the allotted time?",
"answer": "If you have not been notified regarding the status of your referral within seven business days, please contact your Primary Care Physician."
},
{
"question": "May I change my Primary Care Physician at any time?",
"answer": "Yes, simply contact your insurance company, and they will instruct you on their policy for changing your Primary Care Physician. Once the change is made, your insurance company will give you the effective date of your change. Should you need to see your new Primary Care Physician prior to the effective date, please contact HDMG’s Member Services Department at: (800) 266-4364, as they may be able to assist you."

{
"question": "What is a watercraft inspection?",
"answer": "A. At an AIS check station, an authorized inspector will ask a few questions to determine the risk your watercraft poses of transporting AIS. If the watercraft is deemed low-risk, the watercraft owner will be provided informational materials, the watercraft will be briefly inspected, and allowed to launch. A watercraft deemed high risk will need to undergo a more thorough inspection. High-risk watercraft may include those that last operated their watercraft in a state with waters known to have invasive mussels, or watercraft with a large amount of standing water which could harbor larval mussels. Q."
},
{
"question": "How long will an inspection take?",
"answer": "A. A standard inspection will take 3-5 minutes. A high-risk inspection is more thorough and may take 10-30 minutes depending on the type and size of watercraft. Q."

},
{
"question": "What happens if my watercraft needs to be decontaminated?",
"answer": "A. An authorized inspector will thoroughly spray the exterior and flush the interior compartments with scalding (140 degrees F) water to remove and kill any AIS that maybe on the watercraft. After decontamination, the watercraft will be inspected again to ensure the decontamination was successful. Watercraft that are heavily infested with AIS may require a quarantine to kill any AIS that may not have been killed during a decontamination. Q."
},
{
"question": "Can I use a car wash to decontaminate my watercraft?",
"answer": "A. No. Only an authorized inspector can decontaminate watercraft in Wyoming. In addition,the water used at car washes does not reach the high temperatures needed to kill AIS, and the effluent may drain into a water and spread any AIS washed from the watercraft. It is best to decontaminate watercraft on a dirt or gravel surface where the effluent water can evaporate. Q."
},
{
"question": "Can I disinfect my watercraft using bleach or other chemicals?",
"answer": "A. No. Hot water or drying are the only approved decontamination methods in Wyoming. Chemicals, such as bleach, have not been proven to be effective in killing all AIS and may damage your watercraft and equipment."

"question": "What is the meaning of “hunger-free” community?",
"answer": "A hunger-free community is a place where there is no discrimination – where people are connected, even interconnected, across the usual social boundaries of race and ethnicity, class, social status, disability, age, block or neighborhood. It’s a place where no one, no matter what their age or social standing, is worried or anxious about having enough money for healthy food. It’s a place where compassion and deep understanding are the highest ideals—not making more profit, growing a reputation or fame, punishing others, or elbowing for more power. A hunger-free community is a place where someone who is suffering knows they can get help. Where there is no shame in asking for help, and no judgment or coercion in providing help. A hunger-free community can be a place, a group of people, a workplace, a neighborhood, a network of people, a university, a hospital, a city. It can be any group of people that commits to living mindfully in the service and care of others."

"question": "What does science have to do with ending hunger?",
"answer": "O ur research shows how hunger affects the body, brain, and development of a child. Nutritional deprivation can cause lifelong harm in children by stunting their growth, especially during their early development in ages zero to three. Based in scientific inquiry and research, we know that children who experience food insecurity at a very young age are more likely to have increased hospitalizations, health problems, impaired development, behavioral and emotional problems, and to have trouble in school and in the workforce. The pictures at left, from the Center on the Developing Child at Harvard University, show developing neuron connections in the brain and illustrate the devastating impact of hunger and its associated stresses on brain development in very young children. For more information about the science as it relates to ending hunger, visit our Children’s HealthWatch research."
},
{
"question": "What do you mean by the “human experience” and how is it relevant to ending hunger?",
"answer": "Witnesses to Hunger shares the voice of those who experience poverty and hunger first-hand. We tell our stories from our experiences and our own points of view. We are the people behind the numbers and statistics. While it is important to have the scientific understanding of how hunger affects the health and development of children, it is essential to remember that we are talking about real live children that have so much potential and are experiencing this stress day-to-day. These are children who could grow up to be the President, to be a lawyer, to be a surgeon, or to be your child’s second grade teacher, but the toxic stress that they experience due to poverty and food insecurity can limit them for life. Now is the time for everyone to get involved to change these children’s future for the better. To learn more about toxic stress, see our research for Children's HealthWatch and the Center on the Developing Child at Harvard University."
},
{
"question": "How is the Center for Hunger-Free Communities different from other anti-hunger and anti-poverty organizations?",
"answer": "The Center for Hunger-Free Communities is unique in that we seek to identify solutions to hunger and poverty based on the active involvement of community members who know the experience of poverty and hunger first-hand and academic research supported through our university-based research center. We make our policy recommendations and interventions based on science and wisdom from people with lived experiences of poverty and hunger."
},
{
"question": "What solutions do you have for ending hunger in the U.S.?",
"answer": "While initially it may seem that hunger is simply a matter of individuals lacking necessary food resources, our research has found that hunger is related to many other aspects of poverty—access to health care, lack of access to quality childcare, low literacy and educational opportunity, under-employment or unemployment, access to technology, financial literacy and security, trauma, and housing, energy and environmental security. Ending hunger in the U.S. will require an approach that effectively addresses these issues while ensuring all people have adequate access to healthy, nutritious foods. The solutions and interventions of our Center address these issues and seek to ensure that entitlement programs are available to all families who are eligible. We are also looking at new interventions including peer support groups, micro-lending, and community-engaged accountability."
},
{
"question": "How can we afford to end hunger in the U.S.?",
"answer": "We cannot afford not to end hunger in the U.S. According to the report, “The Economic Cost of Domestic Hunger,” hunger costs the United States over $90 billion dollars annually. This is money lost through illness, decreased productivity, and decreased educational attainment, as well as money spent to provide families with food through charity by food banks and other resources, which do not provide long term solutions to the problem. While many of the safety-net entitlement programs require significant financial support through budget appropriations from our federal and state governments, these costs are far less. Increasing spending on safety-net programs could cost at most $12 billion dollars and nearly end hunger in the U.S. This represents approximately one sixth of the total cost of failing to act and continuing to let our fellow citizens go hungry."

"question": "If people get food stamps, don’t they have enough to feed a family?",
"answer": "Generally, the cost of food in urban areas is higher which means the food stamp benefit does not go as far in the quantity and quality of items purchased. Please see our full brief, Coming Up Short: the Real Cost of a Healthy Diet, for more information. To learn more about these issues, please see our Food and Health Policy Issue page and learn more from the Witnesses stories at Meet the Real Experts."
},
{
"question": "If people living in poverty can’t afford enough food, why are so many of them overweight?",
"answer": "The relationship between hunger (or \"food insecurity\") and obesity is something that is not fully-understood and is still being researched. Men who are food-insecure are more likely to be underweight. To date, no research has shown a causal link between a family using food stamps and childhood obesity. To read more see the Institute of Medicine report: Hunger and Obesity: Understanding a Food Insecurity Paradigm. In low-income families dealing with the hardship of food insecurity, little research has looked at the nutritional quality of foods, and the tradeoffs families may make in quantity over quality or price over quality. Parents in low-income families with limited food budgets may purchase foods dense in calories that are often heavily processed and sweetened but of limited nutritional value. These foods help to fill the bellies of family members but are high in carbohydrates, sodium and fats that can adversely affect a family members health and weight. These families often forgo the purchasing of more healthy and often expensive foods including fresh produce, whole grains, lean meats, fish and low-fat dairy. Please see our briefs, Food Stamps as Medicine and the Real Cost of a Healthy Diet for more information."

"question": "Why do people who are poor have children that \"they can't feed\"?",
"answer": "Choosing whether or not to have a child is a very personal choice, and half of all pregnancies in this country are unplanned."
},
{
"question": "We would argue that in many ways this question is beside the point—these children are here now, so what are we going to do to make sure they are able to reach their fullest potential?",
"answer": "The responses of the Witnesses to the question of why they had children are varied—while some say they became pregnant due to birth control failure (or failure to use birth control), many planned their families. Some were in foster care or abused and felt moved to start loving families by having their own children, because they didn’t feel love from anyone else. Others reached their late twenties and thirties and, accepting the fact that they may never be financially secure, chose to have children now rather than wait for a more secure income. Some of the Witnesses are with the father of their children, others left an abusive relationship, or had a boyfriend leave because he couldn’t handle the stress of taking care of a sick child. No one’s financial or relationship circumstances are guaranteed, so while preventing unwanted pregnancies is a component to ending the cycle of poverty, we cannot judge those who are struggling to feed their children."
},
{
"question": "Is hunger associated with child abuse and neglect?",
"answer": "No. Hunger is not a reason for that type of treatment to a child. Most people who live in poverty love their children and try to do better. Hunger is only an indication of economic hardship. It is not about abuse and neglect. It is about societal neglect of people born into poverty with little if any chance of getting out. We need new solutions and new ways to leverage the love, the care and the nurturing that all of the mothers of hungry children have. We need to help them to assert and assume their powers and to translate their love for their children into positive actions and a better life for themselves and their children. Our future and the future of our country depends on it."
},
{
"question": "What can I do to help the Center for Hunger-Free Communities end hunger in the U.S.?",
"answer": "1) Take part in holding our legislators and ourselves accountable for ending hunger in our city, region and country and beyond, and learn more about the programs, challenges and solutions to help your community end hunger. 2) Read and learn more about the issues and policies that affect hunger and poverty. See our research and policy papers on hunger and poverty. Educate your family, friends, community, and write to your leaders about what you learn and what concerns you. 3) Meet the member of Witnesses to Hunger.

"question": "What is a Q magnet?",
"answer": "The Quadrapolar or Q magnet is a static multipolar magnetic flux generator Class I Medical Device. It consists of four alternating magnetic quadrants or poles within one solid magnetic body. The Q magnet produces steep magnetic field gradients along the boundaries of the four alternating pole quadrants. ink pharmacy locations The Q magnet has a flux plate attached to the top of the device to further increase the field gradient and drive the field deeper into the body to enhance the therapeutic effect and target the deeper nerve structures. On top of the plate is a durable sticker that displays the orientation arrow and a unique serial number for the medical device. The device is then encased in a hypoallergenic tough acrylic casing. Seen through a magnet viewer to the left, the boundaries between the four alternating pole quadrants can be observed. The boundaries, seen as lines, represent the dividing point where the field as measured on the surface of the device transitions from one pole to the next. The field gradient makes this steep transition along the entire length of the boundary. The first Quadrapolar magnets used therapeutically were comprised of four separate bipolar magnets which had to be assembled into one device. The maximally effective region of these devices were at the point of contact of each bipolar magnet. See explanation here. The bottom image of the three to the left shows the four alternating bipolar magnets through a magnet viewer. Although the magnets are in fact touching, looking at the magnetic field it appears they are slightly separated. This is also the dividing point where the magnetic field transitions from one pole to the next. Q magnets provide a superior effect as they produce a steeper field gradient along the entire length of inter-pole boundary. Q magnets were designed to provide mild pain relief. Work on the first Quadrapolar magnets was pioneered by Dr Robert Holcomb in 1990's. Q magnets are manufactured in Australia and is listed with the Therapeutic Goods Administration as a Class I Medical Device AUSTR # 132324."
},
{
"question": "What are the different Q magnet models available?",
"answer": "There are 13 available Q magnet models to choose from. See the Q magnet product page for more information. It is relevant to note that for magnets made of the same material, the larger the magnet, the more intense the magnetic flux density and the stronger and greater penetration of the magnet. All Q magnet models contain some of the highest quality rare earth magnetic material available with a 13,500 Gauss rating."
},
{
"question": "How are Q magnets different from other magnets advertised in print and TV?",
"answer": "Q magnets are a static magnet field generator. Although the field is static, there is steep variation of the field gradients in three dimensions. If the gradient could be altered by moving the poles apart and increasing the distance between the Q magnet device and its target (for example, a cell under study), the effectiveness gradually diminishes. When the gradient is below threshold amplitude, there is no effect. Many magnetic field therapies on the market are common bipolar magnets (with a north and south pole on each side) and as such do not create a field gradient. Such devices have had little or no effect in cell assays in which Quadrapolar magnets have had substantial biological effects."
},
{
"question": "Are Q magnets similar to Magna Bloc™ that used to be sold through Amway distributors?",
"answer": "Magna Bloc™ was built on the same quadrapolar design. Q magnets are the next generation of quadrapolar design in that they combine very strong rare earth neodymium magnets with the latest magnetising techniques to produce a quadrapolar magnet of four alternating quadrants or poles in one round magnetic body. One side of the Q magnet device has a flux shield like a plate, made of high grade magnetic stainless steal. This drives the field deeper into the body and insulates the field exposure away from the body. The outer side of the Q magnet has a label that displays the orientation arrow and other information including the Australian ARTG Class I Medical Device number and a unique Serial number for every device. The device is housed in a plastic casing to protect it from cracking and rusting. These next generation quadrapolar magnets are smaller and yet much more powerful and penetrate deeper into the body providing a more reliable and greater therapeutic effect such as pain relief."
},
{
"question": "Are Q magnets similar to magnets sold through Nikken?",
"answer": "Some of Nikken’s magnetic products try to emulate the Quadrapolar technology in producing steep field gradients but do not do it as effectively and hence do not achieve as good a result. Nikken’s magnetic products may also be working on different systems within the body, more research needs to be undertaken. See Nikken comparison."
},
{
"question": "Is Dr Holcomb involved with Q magnets?",
"answer": "Dr Robert Holcomb invented the first generation Quadrapolar magnetic array for the treatment of pain in 1986 and is not currently involved in the Q magnet product. However physiotherapist Dianne Hermans, the Principal Clinical Educator for Q magnets was extensively trained by Dr Holcomb both in Australia and at Vanderbilt University."
},
{
"question": "Are there other applications for these devices?",
"answer": "Yes, there are many applications for these devices and those applications are being studied at scientific research facilities in many locations."
},
{
"question": "How do I know which Q magnet to use?",
"answer": "a) The depth of the nerve from the surface at the skin. b) The size of the nerve you are seeking to block the pain signal. c) The comfort factor of wearing a device on a certain part of the body. If the nerve you are seeking to have an effect on is for example, the sciatic nerve (runs through the buttocks and down the back of the leg), then since it is a relatively deep and large nerve, it would be best to use a larger magnet which penetrates deeper and covers a larger area such as the QF28-6 or a small person may use a QF28-3 model. It is recommended to use at least the QF28-3 model over the dorsal column (spine). If it is a nerve near the hand such as a radial nerve you would likely use the QF20-2, as these nerves are relatively small and close to the surface. The other factor is that the smaller devices such as the QF20-2 or the Q6-1.5 may be more comfortable in places such as the wrist and arm."
},
{
"question": "Is the EquineQ model just for horses?",
"answer": "The new next generation Q magnets does not contain a specific EquineQ model. The OF50-3 and QF28-6 are extremely powerful and can be used instead of the former EquineQ."
},
{
"question": "Can anyone treat his or her self?",
"answer": "The answer is yes, if the directions are followed carefully. However, success depends entirely upon correct placement of the Q magnet. Failure could easily reflect poor placement rather than ineffectiveness. It is likely that more complicated pain syndromes will require evaluation and correct diagnosis by a physician, physiotherapist or skilled health care provider before treatment. Correct diagnosis and treatment by skilled health practitioners in the use of Q magnets will likely produce beneficial results in the majority of cases. Medical doctors may also combine the use of Q magnets with pharmaceutical agents to great benefit. Check with your treating medical practitioner. So while someone may be able to treat themselves successfully, failure does not necessarily mean the Q magnets cannot be made to work under the proper circumstances. Importantly, because minimal side effects of Q magnets have been identified, individuals can try to treat themselves safely before seeking further expert attention. It is strongly recommended, however, that individuals not use Q magnets as an excuse to delay seeking expert attention for the treatment of a significant medical problem."
},
{
"question": "Since the placement of Q magnets is critical to its efficacy, how does one find the specific placement?",
"answer": "The simplest principle is to place the Q magnets over the area of tenderness. However, use of multiple devices may be necessary to gain adequate pain control and the basis for positioning may not be obvious. Clinical feedback has shown to place multiple devices along neural pathways proximal the affected site. This depends on accurate knowledge of neurological localization. For example, the pain of a wasp sting or of tendonitis due to tennis elbow may respond to placement directly over the tender spots. However, the pain of radiculopathy lancinating into the heels may respond to placement of several Q magnet devices over the paraspinous region of the point of entry of the S1 root. Some physicians have achieved success in treating patients with reflex sympathetic dystrophy by placing Q magnets over the superior cervical ganglion and over the paraspinous regions of entry of roots from the affected limb into the spinal canal. Thus, the therapy must be tailored to the specific problem and to the individual. For Q magnet placement protocols, click on the Body Map. Placement of Q magnet devices over acupressure points on the wrist may avert nausea of chemotherapy or surgical anesthesia. Thus, interfering with neural traffic along the referral patterns may dictate the points of localization of Q magnet devices. The optimal use of multiple Q magnet devices requires a willingness to use careful neurological localization and even paradigms of acupressure and acupuncture. With regard to the latter, there is much still to learn. However, the reported efficacy of these ancient techniques should not go unnoticed. There have been no known side effects reported with the use of the Q magnet device. However, on occasion, it has been known to cause dizziness if used over the carotid artery in the neck. The dizziness will stop when the device is removed. Magnetic devices can not be used near a pacemaker or an implanted defibrillator."
},
{
"question": "If I use the devices all the time, will I become dependent on them?",
"answer": "The Q magnet devices do not cause dependency like narcotics or other analgesics. You may remove them at any time without any negative effects. If you remove the devices, your painful condition may return. If you experience severe or chronic pain, and the devices seem to relieve this pain, it is possible that it may be necessary to wear the devices for an indefinite time."
},
{
"question": "If the Q magnet device stops working, what does that mean?",
"answer": "The device should continue to work if properly placed. If the device is in the proper location and being used as directed, and the discomfort returns, check the placement of the device first. Many times a very small shift in position will alter the effect. Also, be certain to take care of the devices since magnetic devices are damaged if dropped or exposed to high temperatures. Never leave the devices in a car, especially during hot summer months. The prolonged exposure to heat will damage the devices. They can be damaged if dropped on a hard surface. It has also been observed that Q magnets can loose their effectiveness while the user is suffering from a high temperature fever."
},
{
"question": "Can a Q magnet erase video tapes and computer discs?",
"answer": "Yes, any magnetic product will erase video tapes and computer discs. The Q magnet device has an internalized field. In order for the device to erase a tape or disc, the device needs to come in direct or very close contact with the item."
},
{
"question": "Can I use my computer while I am wearing Q magnet?",
"answer": "Yes, you may wear the devices while using your computer. If you are wearing the devices on your wrist, be careful when removing discs from your computer and not let the device come in direct contact with the computer disc. Never set the computer disc down where you may rest an arm or wrist that has the device in place. It is always preferable to avoid an accident that may result in lost data."
},
{
"question": "Can I wear Q magnets when I am pregnant?",
"answer": "Q magnet devices have not been tested on pregnant women. We advise consulting your physician when using any device or medication while you are pregnant."
},
{
"question": "I have more pain when I am wearing the device, what does that mean?",
"answer": "A person may complain of pain that has changed and/or the pain seems more severe when wearing the device. This is a rare occurrence and we advise removal of the devices for a period of time. If you wish to try again, be certain that the placement is done according to the directions and the orientation markers on all the devices are facing the same direction."
},
{
"question": "When does the Q magnet quit working?",
"answer": "Q magnets should continue to work provided they have not been damaged and are in the proper location. If the device is placed improperly or receives a severe shock damaging the generator, the device will not produce the relief it was designed to give. Also, if it has been exposed to high temperatures for a prolonged period of time, damage will occur and the device will lose its effectiveness. Always be certain to check placement of the device first and consult the directions for use."
},
{
"question": "If my dog or horse suffers from chronic pain, will the Q magnet help?",
"answer": "It is possible that the devices may help your pet, but it is imperative that care is taken to secure the device on your pet and to place the device in the correct location for maximum benefit. If you have any questions regarding treatment of your pet, consult your veterinarian."
},
{
"question": "Since these devices are magnetic, when should I be extra careful using them?",
"answer": "The devices will stick to metal. If you are wearing a device on a wrist or an arm and move a pan off the stove, the device may stick to the pan and could potentially cause an injury. It is important to use extreme caution if the cookware is attracted to magnets. Also, it is imperative to keep the devices from coming in contact with someone's pacemaker or internal defibrillator. Direct or very close contact of the Q magnet device to the pacemaker or defibrillator could cause a malfunction to occur that may be life threatening. Please consult your physician if you have questions about potential risks. The devices will stick to a chair if the chair is made of iron. Be certain to use care and not expose the devices to computer discs or video tapes. Always use caution when using magnets while piloting a plane."
},
{
"question": "I am allergic to all metals, can I still wear the Q magnet devices?",
"answer": "Q magnets are plated with nickel and protected by a high impact acrylic strong plastic casing. The smallest devices are not encased in plastic and gold plated. To reduce the risks of an alergic skin reaction to the gold plating, you can coat the metal side that would normally rest against your skin with a sealant such as a nail polish or a strong varnish/sealant. Another would be to tape over the device."
},
{
"question": "Can I wear too many of these devices at one time?",
"answer": "Yes. The Q magnet is a device that should be placed in the proper position following all directions for its use. Placing the devices too close together or using too many and not aligning them properly may cause the fields to interact, thereby causing the devices to be less effective. Be certain to read all instructions on placement to gain maximum benefit."
},
{
"question": "Can I travel on planes while wearing the Q magnet devices?",
"answer": "Yes, people fly every day with the devices in place and they do not seem to set off the security screens at airports while wearing them. It is important to note that magnets stored in luggage on airplanes may be prohibited by some airlines. Always check with your airline about the rules regarding magnets being stored in luggage."
},
{
"question": "Why are there arrows on the Q magnet devices?",
"answer": "The devices all need to point up towards the head of the person wearing the devices and therefore in the same direction. Otherwise the magnetic fields they generate will interfere with each other and the device will not perform optimally. See a more detailed explanation here."
},
{
"question": "How do I apply the Q magnet device?",
"answer": "The Q magnet device is easy to apply with sports tape such as Fixomull™/Hyperfix™ (sold as Cover-Roll™ in United States), double stick adhesive such as QFix28 or for the Q6-1.5 use QFix6 plasters. The Flux Attachment Plate provides an additional method to attach to tight fitting clothing - Click here to see how. You may also get creative with your application by using sport type bandages and braces for knees, backs, elbows, elastic bandages, headbands or your own creation using Velcro secured materials."
},
{
"question": "Which side of the magnet do I apply to the skin?",
"answer": "The label should always be facing away from the body so you can see the model name and orientation arrow when applying to the skin. A Q magnet is a Quadrapolar magnet with a flux plate attached to one side and a model and information sticker attached to the plate. The purpose of the flux plate is to deflect the magnetic field so that it penetrates deeper into the body. The flux plate also provides a barrier or insulation so the outside of the magnet is less likely to stick to metal objects."
},
{
"question": "When I use tape I develop a skin irritation, what can I do to prevent this?",
"answer": "There are products on the market that act as protective barriers between the skin and the tape. One such product is called Skin Prep™. This creates a barrier that is a clear coating that dries fast and can not be detected. It is applied prior to tape being placed on the skin. The product is available in an aerosol spray, pump bottle or a small pad similar to an alcohol swab. When used faithfully, this will help protect your skin from the irritation that is so common with frequent use of tape."
},
{
"question": "I have very sensitive skin and all tape seems to cause me problems, what can I do?",
"answer": "Many people complain of tape sensitivity and have tried a protective barrier product and still have problems. Pure Vitamin E is a great treatment for skin irritation. If Vitamin E is applied to the skin each time the devices are changed, it will lesson the irritation and help the lesions heal. Also, it is important to find other ways of applying the devices to your skin without using tape by experimenting with elastic bandages, elastic supports, headbands, wristbands, etc."
},
{
"question": "Can I take a bath or shower wearing the Q magnet devices?",
"answer": "Yes, Q magnets are encased in plastic and waterproof. If your bathtub is porcelain, the devices may stick to the sides of the tub due to the metal underneath the porcelain. If that occurs, you may need to remove the devices before you bathe. I have read that magnetic energy generated by high tension wires is dangerous."
},
{
"question": "Is this device potentially dangerous?",
"answer": "Q magnets are a static magnet and do not create alternating or pulsing fields of energy. The years of research done on static magnetic fields have shown them to be safe. There are no known harmful effects caused by static magnetic fields. The Magnetic Resonance Imaging Machine (MRI) is many times more powerful than rare earth static magnets and this has been deemed safe by the FDA. The WHO and the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection released a report in 2009 titled GUIDELINES ON LIMITS OF EXPOSURE TO STATIC MAGNETIC FIELDS which states that static magnetic fields under 2T or 20,000Gauss are safe for humans. Static magnetic fields are all around each of us in our daily lives, including the earth’s magnetic field. The uses of static magnets are many including those used in cars, machines, advertisements, etc. To date, it is universally accepted that static magnetic fields pose litte or no threat to health or safety. Magnetic fields generated by high tension wires are alternating pulsing fields caused by AC electrical currents. These alternating fields could cause a potential health risk. There is a lot of controversy surrounding these fields. Many scientists have linked diseases from exposure to these fields but the results of the research is not universally accepted."
},
{
"question": "What about if I have a metal surgical implant?",
"answer": "Nearly all metal implants are made from titanium. Titanium is a paramagnetic material and as such has negligible interaction with magnetic fields. As an example, titanium implants are safe for use in MRI machines which generate strong magnetic fields from large superconducting electromagnets that are many times stronger than Q magnets. If you are unsure, check with your doctor that your implant is in fact titanium or some other paramagnetic material and you will have no concerns with using Q magnets over them."
},
{
"question": "What makes the Q magnets different from other magnetic devices on the market today?",
"answer": "This device is a magnetic flux generator and other magnetic devices on the market are magnets. Magnets throughout history have been used to treat various ailments, but it has not been demonstrated or proven until recently that a device using magnetic energy has been as effective and consistent as the Q magnet device."
},
{
"question": "How do Q magnets work?",
"answer": "Precise details of the molecular mechanism of biological effects of Qmagnets are still under investigation. Extensive investigation since 1986 suggests that steep variation of the field gradient in the area encompassed by the four magnetic poles of the Q magnet may alter the configuration of ion channels and change the permeability or neuronal cell membranes to sodium and calcium ions. This results in suppressing transmission of painful impulses to the brain. Other actions are under investigation, including effects on enzyme kinetics and membrane lipids. See the How Q magnets work page for more scientific information. The precise molecular mechanism of action has not been completely established. Simultaneous blockade of voltage-sensitive sodium dependent action potentials and ligand-activated calcium responses of cultured neurons are consistent with an effect of the Quadrapolar generated magnetic field on gating dipoles within the transmembrane portions of the ion channel sequences. The effects in a number of biological systems, including cultured cells and animal models, suggest that there may be multiple simultaneous mechanisms of action. See here for a published theory."
},
{
"question": "What is the “Sweet Spot” of the Q magnet?",
"answer": "The “Sweet Spot” is the area of the magnet that has the physiologic effect. This is the maximum effective area where the Q magnet generates the steep field gradient at the boundary between the four + and – poles. The larger the Q magnet, the further it penetrates and the larger the “Sweet Spot” and the larger the nerve that can be affected. The smaller the Q magnet, the smaller the “Sweet Spot” and the more accurate it has to be placed to be positioned over the nerve."
},
{
"question": "Do Q magnet devices mask pain?",
"answer": "No. Q magnets will not anesthetize an area like the drug lidocaine. If the pain is C-Fibre mediated, the device suppresses the abnormal firing and the pain is relieved. An Action Potential is transmitted along nerve fibres and is the basic unit of pain signal that transmits to the brain. The Resting Membrane Potential (measured in mV) is the measured potential difference across a cell membrane of a sensory neuron or nerve cell. A variety of cellular permeable ions such as Na+, Ca++, K+ and Cl- will attempt to drive the membrane potential towards its electrochemical equilibrium. Once the membrane potential reaches the Threshold Potential, an Action Potential is inevitable, unless the nerve cell is being exposed to a steep magnetic field such as that produced by the Q magnet. An Action Potential consists of a rapid Depolarisation (membrane potential becomes less –ve) followed by a Repolarisation (membrane potential becomes less +ve)."
},
{
"question": "Is the effect of the Quadrapolar magnetic field temperature dependant?",
"answer": "Under certain experimental conditions, cooling cultured neurons to 30ºC or less prevents the effects of the field produced by Q magnets. It has also been found that Q magnets loose their effectiveness on individuals with a fever running a high temperature. Many effects of a device or medication may only be perceived, and if the relief is short lived or can not be sustained, then the effect is placebo. A placebo effect may occur with any treatment. Clinical trials are usually double blinded placebo controlled studies to see the effectiveness of a new drug or device. When a device or medication is tested against a placebo, the real effect of the device or medication is measured. With any treatment, a person may experience relief that is very short in duration. If a positive effect of a treatment can not be duplicated or sustained, it may be a placebo effect. Most treatments for pain have a very high placebo effect."
},
{
"question": "Could the effect of the Q magnet be a placebo?",
"answer": "The treatment of pain with magnetic treatment devices and with pharmaceuticals involve placebo effects. Placebo effects have been a great confounder and a substantial component of pain relief in placebo controlled studies of pharmaceuticals. Control studies have shown that the efficacy of Quadrapolar magnetic devices is greater than that of placebo devices in those studies. Thus, the pain relief by Quadrapolar magnets can only partly be accounted for by placebo effects. I feel a warming sensation when I first apply the Q magnet to my skin."

{
"question": "What is happening?",
"answer": "It is known that magnets of all types may cause dilatation of the small peripheral blood vessels at the location of placement assumes this increases blood flow causing a warming sensation. A Q magnet may have this same warming effect."

},
{
"question": "Which Red River Bank CheckCards can I set up on Apple Pay?",
"answer": "Red River Bank's personal debit cards are currently set up for Apple Pay. Credit cards will be enabled for Apple Pay at a future date. 3."
},
{
"question": "Is Apple Pay secure?",
"answer": "With Apple Pay, when a card is loaded in the Apple device, instead of storing the actual card number, a unique Device Account Number is assigned, encrypted, and securely stored on the device. When a purchase is made, the Device Account Number, along with a transaction-specific dynamic security code, is used to process the payment. So the card numbers are never shared by Apple with merchants or transmitted with the payment. Also another security feature is on the iPhone and iPad, every payment requires Touch ID or a passcode, and the Apple Watch must be unlocked — so only the person with the correct thumbprint or passcode can make payments from the device. 4."
},
{
"question": "Where can I learn more about Apple Pay?",
"answer": "The Apple website www.apple.com/apple-pay has guided tours of how to use Apple Pay on the iPhone and Apple Watch. There is also a current list of merchants and Apps that accept Apple Pay and a list of banks whose cards are participating in Apple Pay. 7."
},
{
"question": "How do I add my card to my Apple device?",
"answer": "On your iPhone, open Wallet. On your iPad, go to Settings>Wallet & Apple Pay. Use the camera to capture the information on your card. Fill in any additional information needed or information that the camera did not capture. Or, if you have a supported card already on file with iTunes, enter the card's security code. If additional authentication is needed, the bank may ask you to provide additional verification. Just follow the directions shown on your device. After the card is verified, tap Next. Then you can start using Apple Pay. 8."
},
{
"question": "Can I have multiple cards in Apple Pay?",
"answer": "Yes. However one card is set as your default card to automatically use when making an Apple Pay payment. 9."
},
{
"question": "Can I change my default card?",
"answer": "Yes, when you see your default card, tap it. From the list of cards that appear, tap the one you want to use. You can prepare to pay in advance to get through the checkout more quickly. While the iPhone is locked, double-click the HOME button. Your default card will appear, you can switch cards by tapping the card you want to use. Place your finger on TOUCH ID until you see HOLD NEAR READER TO PAY. Hold the top of your iPhone near the reader to send your payment information. If you need to choose between Credit or Debit on the terminal, Apple recommends that Credit be chosen to get the most consistent Apple Pay experience. Choosing Debit might not always work with some older merchant payment terminals. If you have turned on Automatic Selection on a certain store credit card, that store's card will be used whenever you are in that store instead of your default card."

https://www.disabilitybenefitscenter.org/faq/why-apply-online | [
{
"question": "What are the advantages of applying for Social Security online?",
"answer": "1. Mistakes don’t require you to scratch out words or start a new application. One of the most frustrating parts about applying on paper is the gravity of one small mistake. Especially when applying for a large, selective government program, you want your application to be as pristine as possible. When applying online, you completely eliminate this from the equation — every edit is merely a click away. 2. Font is more legible than print. Again, when applying for such an important program, it is important that you take as much of the guesswork out of your application as possible. Especially for those with messy handwriting, an online form may be a better way to go. In addition, for those with poor eyesight and vision loss or reading disorders like dyslexia, the online document allows you to zoom in and see the application more clearly. 3. You can save your application for later. One of the biggest advantages of applying online is the lack of time constraints. Unlike applying in person, you can stop your application at anytime and return to it later on. While the application typically only takes around 30-45 minutes, this can help break up the process should you be unavailable for this chunk of time. 4. You aren’t required to travel to your local Social Security Association (SSA) office. Unlike the paperwork at the SSA’s in-person offices, online applications are available to you 24/7. You will also have access to a variety of help desks online that can guide you through the process without having to physically wait in line. 5. You can apply from the comfort of your own home. For those who may find the application process stressful, applying from home allows you to do things in your own time, in your own space. It also keeps medical bills and other supporting documents conveniently at hand, without having to take them with you to fill out a physical application. To fill out your Social Security application, you can visit the SSA's website and begin as soon as you’re ready. Social Security attorneys are an irreplaceable resource when filing for Social Security benefits. They can answer any questions you have about the process and expertly refine your application to be the best it can be. In fact, clients are statistically more likely to receive benefits when represented by legal counsel. If you are thinking about filing for Social Security, speak with an attorney today."

{
"question": "You are here: Home / Mediation FAQs / Is the Divorce Mediation Process Different from Litigated Divorce?",
"answer": "Litigation and mediation represent two completely different approaches to managing and resolving conflict. In litigation, each side is focused on “winning.” The driving concept is that there is only one pie to divide up, and if one party gets more than half, the other party must necessarily get less. This is sometimes referred to as a “zero-sum” or “win-lose” approach. In mediation, on the other hand, the idea is to find creative ways to maximize the entire pie, so that each side can potentially get 60%, 70%, or even more. This is sometimes referred to as a “win-win” approach. Litigating a divorce tends to force spouses into polarized positions, increasing hostility and conflict. By contrast, couples choosing mediation make a commitment to approach issues in a collaborative manner, attempting to create solutions that expand available options in a way that a court setting does not generally permit. This approach is especially valuable for couples with children who need to preserve their co-parenting abilities. The emphasis in mediation on maximizing positive results for both sides generally leads to a more open and trusting attitude between the participants. While the law requires full disclosure of all relevant information in any divorce, the nature of the litigation process often gets in the way of this goal. Relying on formal discovery procedures can be costly and inefficient. Stalling and game playing tactics are all too common. Mediation encourages parties to share information openly, honestly, and efficiently, allowing participants to move forward with creative solutions based on complete knowledge of the facts. Participants in mediation retain the ability to set their own dates and proceed at a pace that works well for the family rather than being at the mercy of the court’s calendar. Litigation takes place in open court and the proceedings become part of a public record, destroying the parties’ privacy. By contrast, mediation is a confidential process. Unless you and your spouse agree otherwise, nothing said in your mediation can be used in court. If you and your spouse have children together, one of the greatest benefits will be the potential that mediation holds for improving their lives. Children of divorce benefit enormously when parents are able to use mediation to reach understandings regarding parenting plans and co-parenting responsibilities. You will be able to share the mediator’s fee with your spouse. While you will also benefit from having independent legal counsel throughout the process, attorney involvement is generally substantially reduced in mediation as compared with litigation. Mediation allows participants to control results. Mediators do not make decisions for participants. Your family law mediator will have special training to help you and your spouse clarify issues and negotiate solutions that provide maximum benefit to both of you. Mediation will provide you and your spouse with a safe setting in which you will be able to express both the practical aspects and the emotional aspects of your most critical needs. Spouses who receive this kind of opportunity generally have greater success in understanding each other’s positions and reducing anger and bitterness. By contrast, the litigation process often adds fuel to angry or bitter feelings. Although many factors will affect the amount of time it takes to resolve your particular case through mediation, the process is almost always significantly faster than proceeding through the courts. You and your spouse can choose to begin private mediation before either of you files for divorce in court, or you can switch to mediation later. The sooner you decide to mediate, the sooner you can begin steering your divorce toward an uncontested process, and the more stress and expense you will be able to avoid. You can use private mediation to resolve your entire divorce case, including division of assets and debts, alimony, and aspects of child custody and support, or you can limit mediation to only one or two issues. In some cases, courts will send spouses to court-mandated mediation to try to resolve certain issues before proceeding to trial. Spouses who are not able to reach agreement on every issue in either private or court-ordered mediation retain the option of proceeding to court. Limiting the issues that require a formal hearing or trial usually results in significant savings of cost and time."

"question": "Home » FAQs » Nursing Home Abuse » How frequent is nursing home abuse and neglect?",
"answer": "Nursing home abuse is a serious problem within the United States. The following takes a look at incidences of nursing home abuse and neglect, and the legal actions you can take if you suspect your loved one is the victim of abuse or neglect. Measuring the number of cases of nursing home abuse and neglect that occurs every year is difficult. Statistics about nursing home abuse are rough estimates because many elders are too embarrassed, ashamed, or intimidated to report abuse. According to the National Center on Elder Abuse (NCEA), 90 percent of abusers (outside of nursing homes) are family members, and elderly individuals may have fears about getting the family member in trouble. The NCEA cites a study involving Lifespan of Greater Rochester Inc., Weill Cornell Medical Center and the New York City Department of Aging in 2011 that found 7.6 to 10 percent of study participants reported experiencing nursing home abuse or neglect over a one-year time period. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the best estimate on elder abuse suggests that between one and two million residents of the U.S. ages 65 and older have experienced abuse, neglect, or exploitation by a caregiver. Nursing home abuse and neglect can be present in many forms. While the prevalence of certain types of elder abuse vary on a state-by-state basis, the study by Lifespan of Greater Rochester, Inc., Weill Cornell Medical Center, and NYC Dept. of Aging, illustrated that psychological abuse of elderly individuals was the most common in New York. Those who work in a nursing home have a duty to provide patients with a reasonable standard of care. When nursing home abuse or neglect occurs, it is a clear violation of that standard. If you or an elderly loved one suffered from nursing home abuse, you may take legal action to recover damages related to the abuse. This might include medical costs, emotional damages, and more. If you have questions about nursing home abuse and your legal options, the attorneys at Cordisco & Saile LLC, are ready to provide you with answers. Our team is committed to making sure anyone who abuses an elderly person is held liable for these actions, and we’ll fight to uphold your rights.

"question": "Why does the ambulance bill residents that are transported?",
"answer": "Absolutely, our members are all volunteers and do not receive hourly payment for their services. The only financial reward offered to emergency services volunteers in the community is through our volunteer benefit program. This program was started as a member retention/recruitment tool in and is utilized by both fire departments and the ambulance service. For more information on this click here.

{
"question": "Why does the ambulance contract with staffing service?",
"answer": "Our mission has been and continues to be the same, to provide prompt and efficient patient care while showing concern and compassion during your time of need. In order to supplement the lack of available volunteers primarily during the weekdays, we began contracting with an outside EMS management agency to supplement the shifts that could not be covered by our volunteer members. While this option creates an additional expense for our organization it also ensures that there is never a time when our community is without available response personnel. Assistance with shift coverage by an outside EMS management service or other EMS provider is utilized by approximately 52% of the volunteer ambulance services in Litchfield County. Some services have resisted the idea and there are times when they must be dispatched 2 or 3 times before they can get a crew together or they end up calling for another town to respond. We felt this was not an acceptable practice and took steps to ensure this never happens in our community. It is the policy of Harwinton Ambulance to request bids from the two primary companies in the state that provide this service when the contract in place is up for renewal. Volunteers cover approximately 60% of our shifts; the staffing service is used to cover the remaining 40% of the time. The staffing service is only used when there are no volunteers available to commit to a shift. This is typically during the weekdays when our volunteers working full time jobs out of town are gone. At the end of an existing contract it is the policy of the Ambulance to request quotes from the two companies in the state that specialize in this service. At the time of the last contract expiration period we opted to continue with Vintech, our current provider. At the request of Harwinton Ambulance the Board of Selectmen has recently requested an RFP from commercial ambulance services to determine if it would be more cost effective method of providing EMS coverage for the Town of Harwinton. The lowest price given to place an ambulance in town was $455,000 a year. This is significantly more expensive than the current $128,000 with 2.5 increases over the next 5 years a year the Town contributes towards our operating expenses. Additionally the town sets aside roughly $20,000 a year towards the rotating replacement program for our ambulances. Based on these numbers our organization saves the taxpayers of Harwinton roughly $300,000 a year over a commercial service. In order to reduce our operating costs to the taxpayers of Harwinton, the ambulance currently bills the patient’s insurance company direct. Click here for more information on our billing policies."

"question": "What is the camps policy on peanuts and other nut products?",
"answer": "We ask that campers not bring food or snacks to camp containing ingredients from peanuts. If staff observes peanut products, they will be sent home with campers. While we discourage the bringing of peanut products, we do not have a formal means of enforcing this policy."
},
{
"question": "How are behavior problems addressed at camp?",
"answer": "Campers are expected to follow camp rules and treat other campers, staff, animals and property with respect; bullying and other disrespectful behavior is not tolerated. Discipline procedures will follow a progression: first a verbal correction from staff, then a 5 minute time out from activities, and if the misbehavior continues, being removed from the activity, sent to the director and notification of parents. Magnolia Farm reserves the right, at its discretion, to dismiss any Participant who violates Magnolia Farm rules or whose conduct is determined by Magnolia Farm to be detrimental to him or herself, other Participants, or the general welfare of the Farm. No refund will be made in case of dismissal. While we would like to welcome all campers, our program may not be suitable for campers with special needs. Our days combine structured activities with unstructured time to allow children to have creative play. The daily schedule may vary, as some activities are offered on a Monday/Wednesday or Tuesday/Thursday rotation. As we are offering camp, and not school, the environment will by nature be louder than a classroom. Please contact us to discuss if our program would be suitable for your child."

{
"question": "What is the role of conceptual understandings in planning and implementation?",
"answer": "engaging in discussion with other educators about the meaning or significance of children’s observations and explorations."
},
{
"question": "Are combined Kindergarten Year 2 / Grade 1 classrooms expected to schedule 60 minute blocks for mathematics?",
"answer": "In Kindergarten, mathematics instruction is integrated into children’s play and inquiry throughout the school day. Schools and school boards will make local decisions on the implementation of PPM 160 to best meet the learning needs of their students. The Frames seem very similar to each other. For example, the Self-regulation and Well-being frame seems very similar to the Belonging and Contributing frame."
},
{
"question": "Can you clarify the difference?",
"answer": "The overall expectations of The Kindergarten Program are associated with the frame that encompasses the aspects of learning to which that expectation most closely relates. As such, an expectation may be connected with more than one frame. The Belonging and Contributing frame encompasses children’s learning and development with respect to: their sense of connectedness to others; their relationships with others, and their contributions as part of a group, a community, and the natural world; their understanding of relationships and community, and of the ways in which people contribute to the world around them. The learning encompassed in this frame also relates to the child’s early development of the attributes and attitudes that inform citizenship, through his or her sense of personal connectedness to various communities. The Self-Regulation and Well-Being frame encompasses children’s learning and development with respect to: their own thinking and feelings, and their recognition of and respect for differences in the thinking and feelings of others; regulating their emotions, adapting to distractions, and assessing consequences of actions in a way that enables them to engage in learning; and their physical and mental health and wellness. What children learn in connection with this frame allows them to focus, to learn, to respect themselves and others, and to promote well-being in themselves and others. Educators will determine which frame is most appropriate for communicating the key learning and growth in learning demonstrated by the child. This provides more flexibility for educators as they communicate their findings from their assessment and evaluation of the child's learning. Educators are encouraged to use their professional judgement to discern which expectations to report on in each frame."
},
{
"question": "How can we maintain the integrated nature of our Kindergarten program?",
"answer": "In order to make the most effective contributions to observations and documentation about children’s growth in learning and next steps in learning, boards may wish to consider the roles in the team of educators such as planning time or specialist educators and any other staff who interact with the children. Educators collaborate with others to create engaging environments and experiences to foster children’s learning and development. Rather than creating an unnecessary disruption to the flow of the day, when appropriate, they can make a seamless transition into what is already happening in the classroom at time of entry. Each educator can be engaged in the children’s play and inquiry, and observe and document what they see and hear. All educators have an important role in assessment for and assessment as learning as they document evidence of children’s thinking and learning during exploration, play and inquiry. Every educator should feel he or she belongs, is a valuable contributor, and deserves the opportunity to engage in meaningful work."

{
"question": "What is the Ministry’s expectation of boards with regard to communication with parents/families of Kindergarten Children?",
"answer": "Communication about a child’s learning should provide detailed information about key learning, growth in learning and next steps that will support children in their learning, and assist parents in supporting learning at home. It is important to the child’s development to engage parents in the child’s learning early in the school year, in order to support both children and their parents throughout the school year. Module Three of the Key Features of Growing Success and Kindergarten Assessment e-Module series summarizes this information about communicating with families. On December 20, 2016, in response to ongoing input the Ministry of Education released a Memorandum informing boards that the transition to the Communication of Learning Templates would not be required until the June 2017 reporting period. If a determination is made by boards to begin using the Communication of Learning Templates in June, it is the expectation that parents of all children in Kindergarten will receive communication about their child’s learning in accordance with existing board practices and timelines for the Winter 2017 reporting period. * The word ‘parents’ is used to refer collectively to a parent, guardian, caregiver, and/or close family member who is responsible for raising the child."
},
{
"question": "Why is the Ministry introducing a new Kindergarten report?",
"answer": "aligns with the content, philosophy, and intent of the program. The Kindergarten Communication of Learning process supports the pedagogical approaches of the play- and inquiry-based program, especially the view of children, families and educators as “competent and capable, curious and rich in experience…” (page 10, The Kindergarten Program 2016)."
},
{
"question": "What expectations are reported on through the Kindergarten Program Communication of Learning Process?",
"answer": "Educators communicate evidence of key learning, growth in learning and next steps in learning in relation to the overall expectations of The Kindergarten Program (2016)."
},
{
"question": "How can educators share concerns they may have about a child’s progress, on the Communication of Learning report?",
"answer": "The Kindergarten Program (2016) acknowledges that young children grow and develop at different rates; children enter the Kindergarten program at different stages of development and with diverse backgrounds and experiences – and they will leave it at different stages and at different points in their growth in relation to the program expectations (page 43). When developing comments, educators should communicate their observations of key learning and growth in learning, and identify next steps in learning, in relation to the overall expectations of The Kindergarten Program. How does the information gathered from leveled assessment tools (e.g., Prime, PM Benchmarks, etc.)"
},
{
"question": "contribute to assessment for learning and/or to the Communication for Learning?",
"answer": "Information from diagnostic assessment may help educators determine where individual children are in their development of knowledge and skills, so that instruction can be personalized and tailored to provide the appropriate next steps for learning. (PPM 155) As such, the information from diagnostic assessment tools is generally used for ‘assessment for learning’ rather than for evaluation and reporting."
},
{
"question": "What is the role of the educators (teachers and ECEs) in communicating information about children’s learning?",
"answer": "All educators work together, as part of the educator team, to plan and implement the program and to maintain a healthy physical, emotional, and social learning environment. All educators contribute to the observation, monitoring and assessment of each child’s learning, that is, the process of communicating information about learning."
},
{
"question": "Are Early Childhood Educators included on the Communication of Learning template?",
"answer": "Yes. Space is provided on the templates for the name of the Early Childhood Educator(s). This space recognises their contribution to the observation, monitoring and assessment of each child’s learning that is reflected in the Kindergarten communication of learning process."
},
{
"question": "How many expectations need to be reported on in each frame, for each reporting period?",
"answer": "Growing Success - The Kindergarten Addendum (2016) focuses on the communication of key learning, growth in learning and possible next steps. Educators are encouraged to work as a team to analyse the pedagogical documentation they have collected for each child to determine which program expectations best reflect the learning of that child during a particular reporting period. This information will inform what is reported on in each frame for each child, for each reporting period. Educators communicate key learning, growth in learning and next steps with families in a variety of ways -- both formal and informal -- over the course of the school year. By the end of the two year program, children should have demonstrated growth in learning in all of the overall expectations."
},
{
"question": "Does the Communication of Learning- Initial Observations report replace Fall classroom observations/visits?",
"answer": "The manner in which boards choose to implement the processes for communicating with parents throughout the year, including the format and the timing, is a local decision made at the board and/or school level. Communication of learning with families comes in a variety of forms and is responsive and flexible to be supportive of each child and family."
},
{
"question": "What supports have been provided and/or will be provided by the Ministry of Education for educator teams, administrators and families?",
"answer": "Professional Learning Opportunities - Fall 2016: Eight learning modules to support the implementation of the Kindergarten program. The eighth module is devoted specifically to communicating information about children’s learning using the Communication of Learning template."
},
{
"question": "How have our union and federation partners been involved in the development of The Kindergarten Program 2016, Growing Success - The Kindergarten Addendum (2016), and the Communication of Learning Templates?",
"answer": "Representatives from unions and federations have been part of the feedback and consultation process throughout the development of The Kindergarten Program 2016, Growing Success - The Kindergarten Addendum (2016), and the Communication of Learning Templates. Representatives from unions and federations have been invited to take part in all regional training and capacity-building sessions that have been offered by the Ministry since the inception of full-day Kindergarten in 2010. Representatives of federations and unions, as well as principal, supervisory officer and board associations were part of the Kindergarten Implementation Working Group (KIWG). This working group provided input to the Minister of Education around communicating children’s learning to parents, professional learning for educator teams, effective implementation of new documents, and resources to support educators, administrators and parents."
},
{
"question": "How do educators share concerns about a child’s learning while still remaining asset-based in their comments?",
"answer": "Comments on the Communication of Learning report that describe challenges in relation to the overall expectations can focus on what children have learned, recognize children’s growth and include possible next steps for learning in language that parents will understand. The ongoing communication with parents that educators are encouraged to establish early in the school year (Growing Success – The Kindergarten Addendum, page 13) further supports the comments in the communication of learning report. A draft Educator’s Guide includes sample comments that may serve as a useful reference in helping educators to frame their comments."
},
{
"question": "What is the role of the educator who provides planning time/preparation coverage in the preparation of the Communication of Learning?",
"answer": "Planning time/preparation coverage teachers are members of the collaborative educator team and would be included with the classroom teacher and ECEs in the local processes to work together to assess key learning, share observations of student growth in learning, and share other relevant observations."
},
{
"question": "What is the role of parents and families in the Communication of Learning?",
"answer": "Ongoing, reciprocal communication between children, parents and educators is essential to support children’s learning. Parents are vital partners in their children’s education. The Kindergarten Communication of Learning template includes a tear-off section for parent comments and acknowledgement of receipt of the report and/or a request to discuss the child’s report with the educators. Parents may return this section to the child’s school as part of the continuous communication process. The Ministry continues to support families of children in Kindergarten with the creation of a guide for parents (Understanding Your Child’s Kindergarten Reports: A Parent’s Guide to Kindergarten Communication of Learning: Initial Observations and the Kindergarten Communication of Learning), to follow soon."
},
{
"question": "Do we have to report on math and literacy every reporting period?",
"answer": "Opportunities for literacy and mathematics take place throughout the day, which allows for many opportunities for educators to garner assessment information that may be communicated to parents in many ways throughout the reporting period. Some expectations appear in more than one frame."
},
{
"question": "How do educators determine where in the Communication of Learning to report on these expectations?",
"answer": "An expectation is associated with the frame that encompasses the aspects of learning and development to which that expectation most closely relates. An expectation that addresses more than one aspect of learning may be connected with more than one frame. When reviewing the pedagogical documentation, educators examine the evidence of key learning or growth in learning that has been demonstrated by the child, determine which frame best aligns with that evidence, and then report growth in learning in that frame. When completing the Communication of Learning reports, educators use clear and familiar language to describe key learning, growth in learning and next steps in learning. Sample comments are included in the draft Educator’s Guide."
},
{
"question": "Will there be a guide for educators to go with the new Communication of Learning reports?",
"answer": "Yes, a Guide for Educators is posted in DRAFT version on EduGAINS in the Kindergarten subdomain."
},
{
"question": "When is it necessary to place a check in the IEP or ESL box on the Communication of Learning document?",
"answer": "If the IEP outlines accommodations only, then the IEP box is not checked. If the IEP outlines modifications in one or more frames, then the IEP box is checked in the respective frame, and the “Program expectations have been modified to meet the needs of the child.” (page 15) is included. Regarding English Language Learners, Growing Success - the Kindergarten Addendum states, “When a child’s learning and growth in learning are based on expectations modified from the expectations in The Kindergarten Program (2016) to support English language learning needs, educators will check the “ESL” box for the frame.” (page 16) A Kindergarten student who might need modifications as an English language learner would be quite rare; however, if the educators have documented that with accommodations a child is not demonstrating growth, then modifications might be necessary."
},
{
"question": "How do we write next steps in the June Communication of Learning?",
"answer": "A next step is focused on a child’s learning and provides suggestions that would be appropriate for home and school, and that meet the child at an appropriate developmental level. Next steps focus on learning, not on an activity. Educators use their knowledge of the child, The Kindergarten Program, and conversations with the family when determining next steps. To continue developing his understanding of how writing works, we encourage Ryan to write about areas of interest to him, and to write for different purposes, such as writing rules for games he invents, creating signs, making lists, and sending notes to others. There is no place for “learning skills” on the Communication of Learning templates."
},
{
"question": "How will we communicate these?",
"answer": "Learning skills are integrated into the program through the four frames, particularly within the frames of Belonging and Contributing and Self-Regulation and Well-Being. The expectations encompassing learning skills are assessed and communicated in a holistic way as part of the personalized description of the child’s learning journey."
},
{
"question": "Are comment banks appropriate in the Communication of Learning in Kindergarten?",
"answer": "The draft Educator’s Guide, linked here, includes sample comments that may serve as a useful reference in helping educators to frame their comments, as these samples demonstrate how educators can touch on multiple overall and their related specific expectations when composing a descriptive paragraph about the learner. The sample comments also reflect the integration of anecdotal evidence and the child’s voice in determining key learning and growth in learning for the child."
},
{
"question": "Do we have to include ‘next steps’ in every frame?",
"answer": "Growing Success - The Kindergarten Addendum states that a child’s key learning and growth in learning in relation to the overall expectations in each of the four frames must be described clearly in the Communication of Learning reports (page 15). Educators may use their professional judgement within the context of their relationship with the child and family to determine in which frames next steps are included. Sample comments for “Next Steps” use the pronoun “we”."
},
{
"question": "What does “we” suggest and what is expected?",
"answer": "In the sample comments found in the Guide for Educators the inclusive pronoun “we” is used to include families and educators. It reflects the idea that next steps are part of an ongoing reciprocal conversation between the educators and the parents that supports the learning of the child in all of their contexts. Using ‘we’ may also reinforce that the classroom is a learning community where educators and learners support each other’s learning as they notice and name the learning that occurs."
},
{
"question": "What changes were made to the Communication of Learning templates?",
"answer": "In response to feedback from the field, some revisions were made to the format of the Communication of Learning templates to further support educators in completing these templates. The Initial Observations template includes the addition of extra blank space below the teacher’s signature line. This will allow extra space for an additional teacher signature in situations where that may be necessary, for example, French Immersion or job sharing. On the January and June templates, the boxes for writing comments in the four frames have been re-sized to be equivalent, reflecting that each frame is of equal importance. The box for teacher and principal signature has been moved to the bottom of page 2, eliminating the need to copy three pages for the OSR. The text box with information about the four frames now wraps from the top of page 3 to the top of page 4 so that parents may return their tear off section to school without losing any program information. There is extra blank space below the teacher signature line, as with the Initial Observations template."

"question": "What is a Plasma Conversion System?",
"answer": "E85 is a mix of 85% ethanol and 15% gasoline and it can only be used in flex-fuel vehicles. It cannot be used in conventional engines, but E85 flex-fuel vehicles can run any fuel with 0 to 85% ethanol. Since 2001, the EPA’s Renewable Fuel Standard has approved the 15% ethanol and 85% gasoline blend (E15) from the previous 10% blend (E10). According to the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007, ethanol use will increase to 36 million gallons by 2022 (in 2007 it was 4.7 billion gallons) in the United States. By 2022 of which 60% of it must be ethanol from non-corn based ethanol. A kilowatt-hour (kWh) is 1000 watts per hour. A watt-hour is usage over time, while a watt is usage at this instant. A 100-watt light bulb will use 0.1 kW per hour, calculated by multiplying the wattage by the number of hours (in this case one) and divided by 1000. A kilowatt is 1,000 watts, and a megawatt is 1,000,000 watts. If you only know the amps, you can multiply amps by volts to get the amount of watts in a household appliance. The plasma conversion system provides a total solution to the problems of waste management. This is a general overview of the plasma conversion system that safely, efficiently and economically destroys wastes, no matter what form, and turns the waste into useful and valuable products. This system can efficiently process waste streams eliminating all waste that is not nuclear. The plasma system is an electrically driven system which causes the molecular breakdown of matter. The energy that the waste is put under produces chemical decomposition or dissociation on a molecular scale until the waste reaches the level of the basic components (atoms). In doing so, the System protects the environment and helps to improve the public health and safety, vital to the ecosystem, the tourism industry and the local economy. and other special wastes while converting many of them into useful commodity products that can include metals and a synthesis-gas. The plasma system melts and recovers metals for the metallurgical industry, and other non-organics such as glass, dirt, rock, resulting in an obsidian-like, glassy silicate compound. The following figures show how the plasma conversion system works through the different steps starting with figure 1. 2. Produce green non-dollar generated electricity. 3. Provide employment opportunities and training of local populace in new technical skills. 4. Closed-loop elemental recycling system processes wastes safely and economically in non-combustion, no smoke stack process without producing harmful, noxious emissions, effluents or residues. 5. Recycles wastes into marketable commodities such as materials for building and highway constructions. Materials previously regarded as waste are recycled and processed as feedstock to produce these commodities. 6. Improves public health and safety. · Reduction of indiscriminate burning of waste. · Reduction and elimination of untreated and non-sealed landfills thereby and will not produce the harm that arises from incinerators and landfills. · Potential Reduction and elimination of endemic diseases such as Dengue fever and malaria that arise from mosquito breeding sources in landfills. 7. Greatly reduces cost and risks associated with waste generation producing positive cash flow and profits. 8. Meets and exceeds all U.S. EPA emission standards. 9. Systems are scalable, and can be used to just a few tones to hundreds of tons per day based on available feedstock. 10. System can be located adjacent to existing landfill. 11. Volumetric waste reduction for most solid wastes is approximately 300 to 1. 12. Combined Energy Efficiency (energy input versus output) is greater than 85%. 13. Recycling of landfills would reduce discharge of contaminants into the atmosphere and groundwater, such as carbon dioxide, sulphides, and pesticides. 14. Mining of existing landfill sites until fully emptied and reclamation of landfill sites producing green usage space. 15. Can operate continuously without many of the difficulties and costs that arise in other technologies when operated in the same manner. 16. Because the System is inherently safe, being electrically driven, unlike incinerators, its operation can be stopped immediately by shutting off the electricity. 17. The system is computer controlled, easy to use and operates at normal atmospheric pressure, very safely and quietly. Plasma gasification has several byproducts that can be used as raw materials to create other products. The plasma system results in an ash while some other gasification processes create slag. Slag is about 20% of the weight of the original waste and about 5% of the original volume. Depending on the system used slag takes different forms (air or water cooling systems). Slag comes out in a liquid form and one of the possible uses of slag is that it can be funneled into molds and used in construction material. In the byproducts of the plasma systems any hazardous materials that had once been part of the system are inert and the materials are in no danger of dissolving out. Thus the materials are safe for the environment and the health of those that will have exposure to them."

"question": "Does Fluoride Occur Naturally in Water?",
"answer": "As a general rule, the only fresh water with high levels of fluoride (other than waters polluted by fluoride-emitting industries) is water derived from deep wells. Rather than being something to celebrate, high levels of naturally occurring fluorides have wreaked havoc on tens of millions of people’s health around the world. People consuming water with naturally high levels of fluoride have been found to suffer serious health ailments including disfiguring tooth damage, bone disease, ulcers, reduced IQ, thyroid disease, and infertility. Because of this, international organizations like UNICEF assist developing nations in finding ways of removing fluoride from the water. Thankfully, most fresh water supplies contain very low levels of fluoride. The average level of fluoride in unpolluted fresh water is less than 0.1 ppm, which is about 10 times less than the levels added to water in fluoridation programs (0.7 to 1.2 ppm). The frequent claim, therefore, that “nature thought of fluoridation first” does not withstand scrutiny."

"question": "How is MLML affiliated with the California State University (CSU) system?",
"answer": "MLML serves as the marine science M.S. program for a consortium of 7 CSU campuses: CSU East Bay, CSU Monterey Bay, CSU Stanislaus, Fresno State, Sacramento State, San Francisco State, and San José State. Of those 7 campuses, 5 are currently accepting yearly applications for the MLML M.S. program: CSU East Bay, CSU Monterey Bay, CSU Stanislaus, Sacramento State, and San José State. Every student in the MLML program must officially enroll (and apply for admission) through one of these CSU campuses. Of our current students, about 75% are enrolled through CSU Monterey Bay as their \"home campus,\" and about 25% through San José State University. MLML students register for classes, pay tuition/fees, and receive financial aid through this “home campus,” and this campus also awards the official diploma and transcripts. All classes and academic programs are held at MLML’s main facility in Moss Landing."
},
{
"question": "Does MLML admit new students for the spring semester?",
"answer": "No, MLML accepts new students for the fall semester only. All applicants must submit one online application to MLML by Feb. 1, and one online application to their chosen CSU campus by Feb. 1. All applicants must then submit supporting documents to MLML by Feb. 15, and supporting documents to their chosen CSU by Feb. 15. More information can be found here."
},
{
"question": "Who can serve as a Faculty Advisor?",
"answer": "Although there are more than 30 Ph.D.-level researchers at MLML that can help advise students regarding their thesis topic, only the Tenure-Track Faculty can serve as your faculty advisor. So you need to make sure you contact the Tenure-Track Faculty member that fits your interests so you can seek their support and commitment. Other MLML researchers (Consortium Faculty, Research Faculty, Research Affiliates, and Adjunct Faculty) serve as valuable resources with expertise in additional disciplines and can serve as co-advisors."
},
{
"question": "How much will it cost to finance my education at MLML, and what funding is available?",
"answer": "Students are strongly encouraged to secure independent financial support during the duration of their time at MLML. MLML can provide limited financial support in the form of some graduate assistantships (GAs), as well as some internal grants and scholarships. It is the responsibility of the student to contact his/her faculty advisor(s) about GA positions and other potential funding sources. Additionally, each CSU campus may offer campus-specific funding opportunities. It is the responsibility of the student to contact their home campus Financial Aid office, and to complete an annual FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) as needed. Many of our students work during their graduate school education and would be happy to provide insight into managing work and school responsibilities at the same time. If you area prospective student interested in getting in touch with current students, please contact MLML's Graduate Program Coordinator. Students should plan to be enrolled full-time for the duration of their tenure, though some students enroll half-time while completing the thesis."
},
{
"question": "Can I transfer courses taken at another institution?",
"answer": "Once in the program students may transfer up to 6 units of coursework completed at another institution. Courses taken to fulfill the requirements of another degree are not eligible for transfer credit, but can be used to waive a required course."
},
{
"question": "Does MLML have a minimum GPA or GRE score required for admission?",
"answer": "MLML has no GPA or GRE minimums, but admitted students generally have a GPA of 3.2 or greater and GRE scores in the upper 30th percentile. CSU campuses generally set a minimum GPA for admission, and all MLML applicants must meet CSU minimums for admission. MLML does not require applicants to take the GRE, but a good score on either the GRE general test or a relevant GRE subject test can improve an applicant's chances for admission. As such, MLML strongly recommends that prospective students take the GRE before applying. MLML evaluates applications holistically, taking into account past academic performance, relevant professional experience, and the applicant’s likelihood of success within our interdisciplinary program. The field of marine science is highly competitive, as is acceptance into the MLML M.S. program. Students accepted into the program typically have a well-rounded background in science and math in general and the marine sciences in particular, and research experience. Applicants should email the potential MLML faculty advisor(s) to whom they are considering applying for more specific guidance."
},
{
"question": "Do you offer tours for prospective students?",
"answer": "At this time, MLML does not offer organized tours for prospective students, but we encourage you to contact a member of the MLML faculty directly to schedule an individual tour of the lab and to discuss the graduate program."
},
{
"question": "Is student housing available?",
"answer": "Most of our students live within a 30-minute commute of the lab—in Santa Cruz, Prunedale, Salinas, Marina, Seaside, and Monterey. MLML does have very limited student housing (4 bedrooms in 2 shared houses) on campus; these rooms are leased to students each year for the duration of the academic year, with preference given to new incoming students each year and with a maximum of a one-year lease per student. MLML’s M.S. program is highly competitive. While there is no set maximum or minimum of students accepted each year, MLML generally accepts around 15 new students each year. This number varies from year to year depending on individual faculty advisors, current research projects underway in their labs, and the number or students they are currently looking to accept into their labs. For the last few years, our acceptance rate has been about 25% of applicants."
},
{
"question": "Does MLML offer a scientific diving program?",
"answer": "Yes. Scientific diving has been an integral part of MLML since the labs opened in 1965. For more information, check out the dive program website."
},
{
"question": "What is campus life like at MLML?",
"answer": "MLML prides itself on its sense of community and the cohesion of students, faculty, and staff. The campus is the foundation of this community, and you will often find students and faculty working together in one of several meeting and study rooms. In addition, the student body has created a yearly tradition of planning community events including: Halloween party, lab-wide bowling and bonfires, and the annual public Open House."

"question": "Why do therapy in the first place?",
"answer": "While there are many routes to improving one’s life, psychotherapy offers the opportunity to have a safe-yet-intimate relationship with a trained professional who neither over-reacts to nor ignores or minimizes one’s struggles and concerns. I like to make a distinction between offering clinical judgment (which is what I’m trained to do) and moral judgment (which most people find unhelpful). Therapy also allows people to use the relationship and interactions with their therapist to test out beliefs about relationships more generally and to develop and practice skills which they can then use in the wider world."
},
{
"question": "What form of therapy do you provide?",
"answer": "I am a disciplined eclectic therapist, which means that I utilize a spectrum of techniques which are informed by psychodynamic, existential-humanistic, control-mastery, and cognitive-behavioral theories (among others) over the course of treatment. I believe that every individual deserves their own, individually tailored therapy; often, it evolves considerably over time. What is effective for a given individual at a given time may not be equally effective at a different time, or for a different person. My fee is $170 for a 50-minute session. While l do not take insurance, I frequently help the people I work with obtain reimbursement for my services as an out-of-network provider. Some people find it helpful to use a Health Savings Account to reduce the cost of psychotherapy. In general, I find that weekly appointments offer the best structure for treatment, and the expectation when someone is new to my practice is that we will meet on a weekly basis. Under rare circumstances, such as in a crisis situation, I meet with people more than once per week. Conversely, some people find that biweekly sessions are frequent enough once the therapeutic relationship is well-established and the focus has shifted to maintenance of the progress already made. The length of time people spend in therapy varies widely. For some individuals who have a single issue they are addressing, or whose concerns are time-sensitive, a few months may be enough. Some people find therapy so helpful, both for addressing crises and for supporting introspection, that they choose to continue for years."
},
{
"question": "How will I know if it’s working?",
"answer": "Therapeutic efficacy can be assessed using both subjective and objective tools, both of which I support. Subjectively, treatment progress may be gauged by a greater sense of well-being, improved self-worth, more effective coping skills, reduced conflict and improved communication in relationships, as well as decreases in symptoms such as depression and anxiety. It can also be helpful to use objective tools such as periodically administered screeners or assessment tests to have a more measurable picture of changes over time."
},
{
"question": "How will I know when it’s time to end therapy?",
"answer": "Sometimes it’s obvious when a course of therapy has reached its conclusion…and everyone involved knows it. At other times, however, it is less clear, and more assertive action must be taken to end therapy when appropriate. Psychologists are ethically bound to discontinue treatment when the patient is no longer benefitting from the work. People also can find it helpful to take breaks during a course of therapy for many reasons, including a desire to go out and practice some of the skills they’ve developed in the outside world without the benefit of regular therapeutic support. As a psychologist, I cannot prescribe medications; however, some of the people I work with find that they benefit from a period of using antidepressants, anxiolytics, ADHD medications, etc. Once I have their written consent, I work collaboratively with their physician or psychiatrist to offer insight into the patient’s unique strengths and challenges, with the goal of helping to inform not only the selection of medication but also to offer an objective assessment of both its efficacy and any side-effect issues that may arise during the course of treatment. For the majority of people I work with, there is no substitute for a face-to-face interaction. At times, however, in-person meetings may be difficult to arrange due to travel or other scheduling issues. I frequently meet with people by either phone or secure video conference in these situations, assuming that there is not a good clinical or legal reason why doing so is inadvisable. Once a therapeutic relationship has been established, many of my patients find the flexibility of such arrangements to be quite beneficial."

{
"question": "How long have you been a photographer and what sparked your interest to become a wedding photographer?",
"answer": "I have always had an interest in the visual arts and studied History of Art and Cinema at university. My interest in photography was really rekindled when Cristel and I learnt we were expecting our first child back in early 2008. I immediately went out and bought a “proper” camera and immersed myself in the entire subject. From there, my friends saw my work through social media and asked me to photograph their families and weddings for them. It all snowballed from there really; people saw I offered something different from the norm and it resounded with them. I love being part of such an exciting, emotional and joyful day for the bride and groom and their friends and family. I feel honoured to be brought into the inner circle of a very intimate and personal time in someone’s life and documenting that day for them. From a social aspect, I really enjoy the interaction with everyone on the day, but I do tend to counterbalance that with not being too imposing or intrusive; I’m not really interested in injecting myself into the proceedings and directing someone’s wedding day to conform to an idealized idea I might have of how it should all look. For me, it’s all about getting at the soul of the bride and groom, capturing the moments honestly and truthfully yet in an aesthetically pleasing and artistic way. About 95% of what I do is photojournalistic from the standpoint that I do not direct the day at all and focus on an authentic documentary-style approach. For the portrait side of things, however, a certain amount of direction is needed, but I aim to make it as authentic as possible. Simply put, I find the light and the location, put my subjects into that scenario and offer some direction in terms of an idea of something to think or talk about. Again, it’s about capturing my subject’s personality, not about me having them try to pose or interact in a way that doesn’t represent who they really are."
},
{
"question": "What type of couple do you work best with?",
"answer": "I seem to attract clients that want something a little different to the norm and so they tend to trust me to do my thing. Couples that are looking for something beyond the cliché, something that isn’t cheesy, something that truly captures the essence of their personalities and unique aspects of their wedding day. Those are the types of clients I tend to find myself working with."
},
{
"question": "What happens after a couple submits an inquiry to you?",
"answer": "Most of the time, I follow up the initial inquiry with an intro call where the bride and I can get to know each other a little. I really think it’s important we click personality-wise as we’re going to be together for quite a while on the big day! From there, I like to learn about the bride and groom and what they’re looking for with their coverage so I can put together some tailor-made photography collections to meet their needs."
},
{
"question": "If so, do you have limitations on where you will go?",
"answer": "Yep! Despite, the “Raleigh wedding photographer” tag, I travel pretty much anywhere and have shot weddings across North Carolina, Ohio, Indiana, Virginia, New York and Jamaica."
},
{
"question": "What is a typical day on the scene like?",
"answer": "There is no typical day! All weddings are different, but I normally start out with the bride and her entourage at the salon or wherever they are getting ready. From there, I follow the day as the bride and groom want to plan it and leave when the party is over and the bride and groom have made their exit."
},
{
"question": "When can couples expect to see the finished work?",
"answer": "I average around 4-6 weeks after the wedding to provide proofs to my clients. Every image I present is hand finished and polished. From there, I upload to Dropbox, burn USB drives and design albums as and when the brides give me the OK on their selections."
},
{
"question": "I would really look at which style matches your preferences: do you want a stylized version of your day or a documentary style?",
"answer": "– Chat with them or get together with them to ensure you click on a personal-level."
},
{
"question": "Do they pay taxes?",
"answer": "What kind of gear do they have?, etc. There are a lot of people entering the market these days with entry-level consumer cameras and very little skill and experience. This is a recipe for disaster when shooting in challenging situations such as churches and reception halls in low light and no chance for a second take. You get what you pay for, so it’s better to pay more to get a quality product that will last down the years."
},
{
"question": "What is the best advice you have for engaged couples searching for the 'picture perfect' photographer?",
"answer": "Look at their portfolio in-depth and get a feeling for the consistency of the style of their work. If you want “safe” photos then go with the people that churn out the exact same kinds of images every wedding. If you want more personal photos reflecting the idiosyncrasies of your special day, then go with a documentary-style photographer and let them do their thing."
},
{

},
{
"question": "Who is eligible to participate in an IPO at Fidelity Investments?",
"answer": "Eligibility for participation in traditional IPOs led by Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. (KKR) is reserved for brokerage customers with a minimum of $100,000 in certain assets at Fidelity. Other providers of traditional IPOs, and other equity public offerings made through Fidelity may be reserved for brokerage customers with a minimum of $100,000 or $500,000 in certain assets at Fidelity. Members of Premium Services or customers who have placed 36 or more stock, fixed income, or options trades in a rolling 12-month period are also eligible."
},
{
"question": "Can I purchase shares of an initial public offering on margin?",
"answer": "Regulations governing IPOs state that new issues are not marginable for at least 30 days following pricing. Therefore, IPO shares must be paid for using cash or cash available to borrow. Once pricing and allocation have been completed, you will be able to determine how much cash or cash available is needed to settle the purchase of the new offering. Settlement on a new issue varies by the issuer, but is typically the trade date plus two business days. Fidelity eligibility rules require $2,000 in any account from which an IPO bid is entered."
},
{
"question": "How do I know how many shares I received and at what price?",
"answer": "You can receive automated pricing notification via email, text message, or Fidelity Mobile® after signing up for free Fidelity Alerts. Customers can view the status of allocations to their individual accounts on Fidelity.com or by using the Fidelity Automated Services Telephone (FAST®) as soon as shares are allocated, typically the morning following pricing. As with any investment, you are free to sell the securities obtained during an IPO whenever you determine it is appropriate for you. However, if you sell within the first 15 calendar days from the start of trading in the secondary market, it will affect your ability to participate in new issue equity public offerings through Fidelity for a defined period of time."
},
{
"question": "Why and how does a company go public?",
"answer": "The company picks a lead underwriter to help with the securities registration process and the distribution of the shares. The company must develop a preliminary prospectus that includes information on the management team, the company’s target market, competitors, all financial data for the company, and the expected price range and number of shares to be issued. The lead underwriter files a registration statement on behalf of the issuing company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The company must typically wait a minimum of 20 days for the SEC to review the registration statement. The SEC reviews the statement and preliminary prospectus to determine if the issuer meets legal and regulatory requirements. However, the SEC neither approves nor disapproves the issue itself, it only clears the issue for sale. During the SEC review process, the lead underwriter assembles a group of other investment banks and broker dealers to become members of the underwriting syndicate. After the registration statement is filed and preliminary prospectuses are distributed, the underwriting syndicate and selling group members act as a distribution channel by recording indications of interest in the IPO on the part of institutional and individual investors. After the SEC declares the registration statement effective and the offering price has been determined, the selling group members are able to accept the confirmed indications of interest and begin the share allocation process. Lack of true asset ownership. VIEs do not represent ownership in the company as stock does. In the event of a bankruptcy, owners of a VIE may not be entitled to the assets of the underlying firm. Corporate governance. Because shares in a variable interest entity do not generally entail true voting rights, owners of VIE vehicles may have limited influence over issues of corporate governance. Legal and regulatory. Historically, VIE structures have not been well-tested in court. In the future, there is the risk that foreign courts, regulators, or governments may invalidate them."

"question": "When will the offering be priced for sale?",
"answer": "The lead underwriter sets the offering price on a new issue typically on the evening of the day when the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) declares the registration statement effective. Once the registration is declared effective and the offering price has been set, confirmations of indications of interest can begin. The price is normally based on such factors as the company’s financials, products and services, income stream, as well as the demand for the shares and current market conditions. The underwriter must determine a fair offering price which takes into consideration the need for the company to raise capital while offering the new issue at a price which represents a fair value of the shares. The offering price and/or number of shares issued could be raised or lowered from what is described in the preliminary prospectus. Additionally, the offering can be delayed or postponed based on unfavorable market conditions."

{
"question": "When do the shares begin trading?",
"answer": "Typically, the day following pricing is the first day that the new security will trade on the secondary market (i.e., NYSE, Nasdaq or AMEX)."

{
"question": "How does Fidelity allocate shares?",
"answer": "Fidelity’s allocation methodology and IPO system were designed to evaluate customers based on their relationship with Fidelity as defined by their Social Security number (SSN) or taxpayer identification number (TIN). Each customer who participates in an IPO offering is evaluated and ranked based on the assets and revenue they have in accounts under their SSN. Assets include all retail assets under the individual’s SSN/TIN and exclude assets or trades maintained on behalf of any divisions of Fidelity Investments Institutional Services Company, such as 401(k) or 403(b) plan assets. Revenue is comprised of the brokerage commissions, margin interest and mutual fund revenue generated in retail accounts of the individual’s SSN. The allocation methodology is done as fairly and equitably as possible. The size of a customer’s indication of interest is not considered during allocation other than the fact that we will not allocate more than the customer requested. Therefore, you should only enter an indication of interest for the amount of shares you are interested in purchasing, as entering a larger number will not help you receive additional shares and there is always the possibility that you could be allocated everything you ask for."
},
{
"question": "How do I participate in an IPO?",
"answer": "Ensure that you meet Fidelity's eligibility requirements for participating in an IPO. Sign up for Fidelity IPO AlertsLog In Required. Fidelity IPO Alerts keep you apprised of deal updates, which can contain important information about price changes and other changes to the offering. All change notifications to the offering will be communicated via Fidelity Alerts. Review the preliminary prospectus of the offering. This document contains offering and issuer information that the underwriter and issuer have decided you should have in order to make an informed investment decision. Confirm that you are a qualified investor per FINRA (Financial Industry Regulatory Authority). FINRA rules prohibit \"restricted persons\" (certain persons associated with the financial services industry) from participating in the purchase of new issue offerings. You must confirm that you are not a \"restricted person\" on each IPO in which you choose to participate. Enter an indication of interest or a bid, depending on the type of IPO sale. The indication of interest provides Fidelity with the maximum number of shares a customer is interested in purchasing. Call Fidelity to confirm your indication of interest on the confirmation date, which is after effectiveness and pricing date (the actual date will be disclosed to customers when they place their indication of interest). Receive notice of expected date of effectiveness via Fidelity Alerts. The morning of the expected date of pricing, you will receive a notification that the offering may go effective shortly. Receive notice of effectiveness and pricing via Fidelity Alerts. You will receive a notification that: 1) the offering has been declared effective and has been priced; 2) in order to have an opportunity to purchase shares, you must confirm your indication of interest by a stated time; and 3) if you do not want to purchase shares, you must withdraw any confirmed indication prior to allocation, which will not occur prior to a stated time. Confirm your indication of interest to place your order to buy shares. Indications of interest may not be confirmed prior to the registration statement being declared effective and the shares are priced. By confirming your indication of interest, you are placing an order to buy. Receive notification of allocation. Customers will receive a notification that the offering has been priced and allocations have been placed in customer accounts. Customers are instructed to check their accounts on Fidelity.com to verify if they received an allocation. This notification will be sent via Fidelity Alerts. Receive the final prospectus. Customers who are allocated shares of the offering will receive a copy of a written confirmation accompanied by the issuer's final prospectus. The final prospectus contains the same type of information included in a preliminary prospectus and certain amendments including, but not limited to: the exact number of shares offered, the net proceeds going to the issuer, and the concession being given to the underwriter."
},
{
"question": "Why do I need to confirm my indication of interest?",
"answer": "With new issue offerings through Fidelity Investments, customers must confirm their indication of interest after effectiveness and pricing. By confirming your indication of interest you are informing Fidelity that you are interested in placing an order to buy shares at the offering price. Customers who confirm their indication of interest are not guaranteed an allocation of shares. Customers who do not confirm their indications of interest are not eligible to receive an allocation of shares."
},
{
"question": "Can I change or cancel my indication of interest?",
"answer": "You may increase your indication of interest up through the close of the indication of interest period. You may decrease or cancel an indication of interest until share allocation takes place. Once share allocation takes place, your indication may not be canceled or modified. Fidelity's practice regarding customers' investment decisions has never changed: We do not, and will not, offer investment advice or evaluate the merits of any individual IPO or any security trading on the secondary market. Our philosophy is to allow customers to make their own investment decisions based on their individual investment objectives, risk tolerance, financial situation, and their evaluation of the merits of the security. Eligibility for participation in traditional IPOs led by Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. (KKR) is reserved for brokerage customers with a minimum of $100,000 in certain assets at Fidelity. Other providers of traditional IPOs, and other equity public offerings made through Fidelity may be reserved for brokerage customers with a minimum of $100,000 or $500,000 in certain assets at Fidelity. Members of Premium Services or customers who have placed 36 or more stock, fixed income, or option trades in a rolling 12-month period are also eligible."

{
"question": "What materials can I choose from when building a deck?",
"answer": "The most popular decking materials are pressure treated softwoods, hardwoods, and composite, which is a combination of natural wood resin and PVC (plastic). The material you choose will ultimately depend on your tastes, preferences, and your budget."
},
{
"question": "What material is best for a maintenance-free deck?",
"answer": "While there is no such thing as a completely maintenance-free deck, some options are easier to take care of than others. Consider composite decking materials as they do not warp, rot, or splinter like 100% natural wood."
},
{
"question": "What is the perfect deck material?",
"answer": "There is no perfect material as each one offers unique pros and cons. For example, composites are low-maintenance, but they are hotter for bare feet than wood. Vinyl materials are also low-maintenance, but they do not look as natural as real wood. We strongly suggest doing your research before deciding on a material."
},
{
"question": "How long do I need to wait before staining my deck?",
"answer": "If your deck is built from cedar, you can stain this material right away because it’s delivered much drier than pressure-treated lumber options. If you do go with a pressure-treated deck, it’s recommended to wait at least 2 months before staining. This time will allow the material to age and dry out properly."
},
{
"question": "What are some deck customization options?",
"answer": "Built-in benches, unique corner posts, and child protection gates are all great customization options. You may also consider flower planters to add a touch of color. If you have an idea in mind, talk it over with your contractor to turn it into a reality. The answer to this question depends on a few factors. These include the materials you’ll be using, size, and added features. Every deck is different. Prices can range from about $2,000 to $15,000 or more depending on your preferences and budget. For larger commercial projects, the price may go up even more. Again, this depends on the size of your project. It can range from a few days to a couple of weeks, so plan ahead."
},
{
"question": "How do I maintain my deck?",
"answer": "After your wood deck is built, you’ll want to protect it with a high-quality wood sealer. We suggest sealing your deck once a year. If you leave it untreated, the wood’s color will fade over time due to sun exposure. You’ll also want to sweep and hose off your deck regularly."
},
{
"question": "Is staining the wood necessary?",
"answer": "Not at all. Staining is for changing the color of your wood. You may, however, want to seal your wood. Softwoods, in particular, should be resealed annually so that they don’t soak up water and rot. Staining, on the other hand, does nothing to prolong the life of your deck – it’s simply for looks."
},
{
"question": "Is power washing my deck a good idea?",
"answer": "We typically do not recommend power washing. High-pressure can damage and splinter the material, especially if your deck is made from a softwood like cedar or redwood. Power washing is ok for non-wood materials like vinyl."
},
{
"question": "What is the difference between a deck and a dock?",
"answer": "A deck is built over land while a dock is built over water. While they are made from the same types of materials (woods, composites, and plastics) and follow similar construction standards, docks have to withstand constant water exposure. For this reason, a dock generally requires more maintenance."
},
{
"question": "Can post holes be dug at any time of year?",
"answer": "Yes, post holes may be dug any time of the year. Just keep in mind there are some extra preparations that need to be done when the weather is extremely cold."
},
{
"question": "Should I be present during the construction of my deck?",
"answer": "You do not have to be present if we have access to the worksite. However, you’re more than welcome to stop by to see the progress of the project whenever you’d like."
},
{
"question": "Will the price of my deck change after the job starts?",
"answer": "This is a common question asked because individuals don’t want the price going up after a job has begun. Very rarely will this happen and if it does it’s because the individual wants to add some extra additions or because we encountered a problem when digging the footings."
},
{
"question": "What should I expect from a professional contractor?",
"answer": "First things first, you want to be sure your contractor is fully licensed and insured. They should also keep the job site clean, respect you and your property, and complete your project within the specified timeframe. If you have any questions, they should get back to you promptly with an answer."

"question": "What is the Gridiron Show?",
"answer": "Well, first of all, it has nothing to do with football! The Northwest Arkansas Gridiron Show is a theatrical performance that spoofs local, state and national newsmakers and cultural trends of the past year in sketch and song. It is written, directed and performed by the local Society of Professional Journalists. In addition, it’s a very nice social event. Fans come out to see who’s going to get skewered and many of those targets are in the audience! Before the show and at intermission, the cash bar is open and you can hobnob with the cast. Tickets go on sale Sept. 1 each year. Tickets can be purchased in person from members of the sponsoring organizations: the American Association of University Women and the Society of Professional Journalists. They are also available online during the month leading up to the show. Or you can call the Arkansas Public Theater box office at 479-631-8988. Tickets may also be purchased at the door on the night of the performances at the theater — if we have any left!! All tickets are for general admission. There are no reserved seats. Snacks and drinks – including soft drinks, beer and wine – are available for purchase at the show. Arkansas Public Theater at the Victory (formerly Rogers Little Theater) is located at 116 S. Second Street in downtown Rogers. From Interstate 540, take the Walnut Street exit (Highway 71B), exit 85. Go east about 2.6 miles to North Second Street. Turn right on North Second (south). The theater is half a block down on the right (west). Patrons are invited to park diagonally along the streets adjacent to the building. Nearby public lots are located at Second and Elm streets (1/2 block from the theater), around the corner mid-block on Walnut between Second and Third streets; and in Frisco Park. Special seating for patrons in wheelchairs is available. Please inform box office personnel before you come about your needs. The Society of Professional Journalists will fund scholarships with its profits; AAUW will contribute its share to the Single Parent Scholarship Fund, the AAUW scholarship at the University of Arkansas, and the AAUW Educational Foundation and Legal Advocacy Fund. The show will also benefit the Arkansas Public Theater building fund. A portion of the ticket price is tax deductible."

},
{
"question": "The show begins at 7:30 p.m., and with the 20-minute intermission between acts, we usually have folks out of the theater by 10 p.m.\nWho’s in the Gridiron Show?",
"answer": "Our rule is: You gotta be a journalist to be in front of the curtain, except for the emcee, who is often a well known public figure. Most of our cast comes from staffs of the local newspaper, TV and radio stations, public relations agencies and faculty of the university journalism department. We also are lucky enough to get journalism students involved each year. One thing’s for sure: If you’re a newsmaker, you aren’t gonna be on the stage! It’s our turn."
},
{
"question": "Who writes the Gridiron Show?",
"answer": "We’re lucky to have Emily Kaitz, local singer and songwriter, as our musical director. In a moment of weakness one summer, Emily said that as long as we’re doing the Gridiron, she’ll play for us. We told her we had witnesses. And now it’s in print! No offense to anyone else who has ever played for us, but Emily was born for the Gridiron. She can transpose into any key (even the key of N, for nonexistent) at the snap of the fingers. So many of our singers are untrained and having her to help us has made the show so much better! Thanks, Emily. “Contributes” is not a strong enough word. Without the American Association of University Women, the Northwest Arkansas Gridiron Show would never have returned to the stage. AAUW members do much of the behind-the-scenes work that makes the show a success — selling playbook ads, painting sets and much more."
},
{
"question": "How long has the local Gridiron been around?",
"answer": "The firstNorthwest Arkansas Gridiron Show was produced 40 years ago. The troupe played to packed houses from 1978-1990, then took a 13-season hiatus. We’ve been back now since 2004."

"question": "Question #1: Are there any nonsurgical treatments for gynecomastia?",
"answer": "Answer: Although you can read about easy, non-surgical cures in the news and advertisements, and there is considerable ongoing research aimed at finding a way to reverse it without surgery, no effective medical treatment actually exists at this time."
},
{
"question": "Question #2: Is liposuction adequate treatment?",
"answer": "I do not want a surgical procedure. Answer: Liposuction alone is not a good treatment for gynecomastia. Only with cases of pseudogynecomastia is it an adequate technique. Removing the fat around the gland only creates an unnatural bulb and patients are not satisfied with the aesthetic result from this technique. There are some patients that are candidates for the “Light Procedure” which is much less invasive Redo surgery from other establishments comprises 25-30% of Dr. Delgado’s gynecomastia practice and most of these cases have had liposuction alone."
},
{
"question": "Question #3: Will the entire gland be removed during the surgery?",
"answer": "Answer: Not necessarily. Male breast reduction surgery for gynecomastia is a cosmetic procedure. Therefore, enough is removed to create a good looking, flat, but contoured chest. Sometimes the entire gland is removed and sometimes only 80% or 90% is removed. After surgery, Dr. Delgado is happy to discuss this aspect of your procedure with you."
},
{
"question": "Question #4: Will it come back after surgery?",
"answer": "Answer: Rarely, but the tissue can be still stimulated and enlarged by steroids or other medication use. Of course, weight gain can increase the fat content of the overall chest and body. Gynecomastia seldom returns if enough of the gland is removed during the surgical procedure."
},
{
"question": "Question #5: Will insurance pay for the gynecomastia surgery?",
"answer": "Answer: This is a very difficult question to answer even though Dr. Delgado has dealt with insurance companies on hundreds of occasions. It is unusual that gynecomastia reduction surgery is covered, even in the most severe and unfortunate cases. Most insurance companies consider it cosmetic surgery. Dr. Delgado has occasionally received approval for cases in which a medical condition or syndrome has caused the gynecomastia. Even symptoms of pain and tenderness usually fail to warrant coverage in the opinion of the insurance carrier. This entry was posted on Wednesday, July 21st, 2010 at 10:30 am."

"question": "I know of none of them who have ever tried to contact experts in the field - do you think high school kids actually attempt to contact real experts for material?",
"answer": "They really do not have much time, I suppose, but your advice was right on. I did not see your responses as arrogant, just as expressive of irritation at being asked the same stupid questions repeatedly. I enjoyed the tone of your responses, but I like Ben Franklin's little essay about exporting felons to the new world, Jonathan Swift's \"Modest Proposal\" and Dave Barry when he criticizes others. I also read your essay about the differences between Miller's play and the historical facts, and I thank you for putting so much material on the web. I have more of your pages to look at, but I thank you now before the impulse dies away. Thanks for posting your research on the historical accuracy (or inaccuracy) of The Crucible. As a high school English teacher, I am finding it helpful in my classroom. Thanks also for posting the crazy emails you have gotten on your FAQ page. They were hilarious! It is hard to take a critique seriously when it is written in IM format (cos), misspelled and without any punctuation. I noticed that most of them spelled their curse words correctly though (sigh!) At least it is a sign of my job security (good, bad, and unsavory!). Thank you also for the stand you make on plagiarism, it is a well needed lesson for students today. Thank you so much for your website! I am an English teacher and this year I taught The Crucible for the first time. Your site is not only informative but also user-friendly. I was wondering if I may reproduce the Fact & Fiction page in the form of a handout for my students, provided that I credit you and your site as the source in the form of MLA documentation on the handout. I have had problems with students plagiarizing and I do my best to demonstrate to them how to properly use and credit the work of others. Thanks for creating such a comprehensive and sound website. It is a great help to me now, since I'm a new high school English teacher. We're studying The Crucible, and until I found your site, I was really wishing I had some of the info you provide on the real stories and facts. Your info will provide the truthful balance I was hoping to present to my students. Since I'm not a big fan of this play's biases and political motivations, I feel relieved to have some facts to offer the students. I've been teaching The Crucible, and I'd just like to thank you for your web pages on the Miller play and your FAQs - fun and interesting to read. Your questions at the end of Picky picky picky were particularly useful and thought-provoking. Please don't be deterred by the nutters. I see that you have plenty of teacher fan mail already, but I thought I'd add a little bit anyway. I came across your page while searching for project ideas for my juniors, and I got wrapped up in your history lesson and then your FAQ's. I can't wait to put your facts to use in my classroom and send my kids out researching away their Winter Break. Even though I can't get away with all of your snappy comebacks (at least not publicly), I can put them to work and force them to do a little thinking for themselves. Thanks for the inspiration, and keep up the good work. Many thanks for taking the time to share your work with us. Reading the replies to your efforts confirms in me once more that civilization as we know it may be coming to an end with a whimper. Searching for the truth with an open mind is now equated with arrogance. But, then, I guess Socrates discovered that many centuries ago. Wow! I am a English teacher in Los Angeles and I have been using your site to help teach the difference between factual history and dramatic interpretations of history. It is a wonderful site - thank you for all of your hard work in putting it together and maintaining it. Just the other day, I began reading the comments people had sent in. I had to laugh at (and sympathize with you about) the pathetic e-mails from people insulting you. I have been reading them to my students to show just how silly and stupid (ooh, there's that word teachers are not supposed to use) people can be. I think the favorite one was from the actor who said you didn't help him at all. My students couldn't believe he would write it given that you say repeatedly on your site how you're a historian. Thanks for posting. I am an American Lit. teacher who has been teaching The Crucible for many years. I have already taught it this school year, but while my students are in the ELA lab this week I have been surfing the net for new and fresher ideas. I came upon your site again and decided to read the FAQs. They are hilarious! They remind me so much of my students. It is always interesting to note that most times the honor, advanced, and AP students are the ones looking for something to be done for them or given to them. It is as though they do not understand the concept of using resources or finding resources to use. They make me feel as though I am the only resource available to them. Thanks again for the laughs! Continued success on your quest for fact and truth. Once again, thank you for updating this site and keeping it on the web. It's been very useful for me as a teacher in knowing where to begin pointing out to my students the difference between history and historical fiction."

{
"question": "What’s causing this?",
"answer": "• The coating has been applied too thick which could be due to the fluid tip and needle being too large causing an excess of material to be delivered. The material has not been properly atomized. This could be due to insufficient air pressure. The fluid pressure may also be too high, which prevents fine atomization. A special full-day session the day before IWF 2016 will explore a variety of new technologies and best methods that you can use in your business. • The spray gun is being held too close to the object being sprayed. • The weather conditions are too dry, causing the surface to dry too fast. The solution could be to use a slower reducer. Q: I can’t trigger my spray gun."
},
{
"question": "Q: What’s causing me to have a top and/or bottom-heavy spray pattern?",
"answer": "A: The horn holes may be plugged; clean the holes with a non-metallic point, such as a toothpick. There might also be an obstruction on the top or bottom of the fluid tip that needs to be cleaned. Check too to see if the cap and/or tip seat is dirty."
},
{
"question": "Q: What’s causing the spray pattern of my airless gun to feather?",
"answer": "A: Feathering, also known as tailing, is due to low fluid pressure at the tip. To avoid feathering or tailing, increase the fluid spray pressure by increasing the pressure at the pressure control knob. If the pressure control knob is turned all the way up you may have to thin the paint or reduce the length of airless hose being used."
},
{
"question": "Q: Why do I get streaks in my spray pattern?",
"answer": "A: Streaks in the spray pattern, especially heavy bands at the outside edge, are an indication of low pressure at the tip. Turn up the pressure control knob until these bands are eliminated. If the sprayer is already at maximum, you may have to use larger diameter hose or shorten the length of the hose to reduce the pressure drop. Also, make sure any paint filters in the system are clean, because there will be a pressure drop across a restricted or plugged screen. Sprayers are rated for a maximum tip size. Using a tip that is larger than the maximum size or a tip that is worn larger will cause low pressure. The tip should also be the proper size for the type of material being sprayed. Q: My spray gun is spraying heavy to one side of the pattern."
},
{
"question": "What’s causing this and how can I fix it?",
"answer": "A: Rotate the air cap 180 degrees and spray a test pattern to determine if the heaviness is associated with the air cap. Dried paint or debris also may be in the fluid tip; if so, clean or replace tip. It could also be the fluid needle has dried paint or debris or the needle is bent; clean or replace the fluid needle."
},
{
"question": "Q: How does tip wear affect my setup?",
"answer": "A: It causes the flow rate to increase. As the tip wears, the physical opening in the tip increases. An increase from 0.015 to 0.017 inch may result in a 33 percent increase in flow rates. Pattern size also decreases. The tip will wear out in the top and bottom portions of the tip opening. This will result in a smaller pattern size, which will continue to decrease as the tip wears."
},
{
"question": "Q: Why is my gun releasing a small stream of paint after I release the trigger?",
"answer": "A: The problem is that the needle is not seating properly in the seat. You will need to either purchase a kit for the gun needle and seat or you may only need to clean the needle and seat assembly. Residue or debris also may cause the needle to move off to the side before seating. Tip extensions, extension poles and tip filters can also cause spitting or a stream of fluid after the gun is released due to decompression of the paint trapped between the gun and the tip. Fluid pressure dissipating through the tip causes this spitting or paint stream. An automatic shut-off valve will prevent this problem."
},
{
"question": "Q: What is the difference between conventional, HVLP, turbine HVLP and trans-tech (LVMP) technologies?",
"answer": "A: Conventional: Conventional spray guns typically operate at pressures of 40-60 PSI out of the air cap. Atomization is typically better than HVLP and slightly better than Trans-Tech. It is common for the transfer efficiency to be 50% or less. HVLP (High Volume Low Pressure): These guns are considered to be 65 percent efficient or better and are compliant with the California South Coast Air Quality Management District. The high volume of air exiting the air cap is what helps to atomize the material. The pressure of the air exiting the air cap is 10 PSI or less. Turbine HVLP: Much the same characteristics as HVLP except that the air source is a turbine. Turbine HVLP guns have the advantage of being more portable than HVLP guns but have the drawback of a large diameter air hose from the turbine to the handle of the gun. The large diameter hose substantially hinders the movement of the spray gun. Trans-Tech (LVMP): Trans-Tech spray guns operate on low volume, medium pressures, typically 10-20 PSI; transfer efficiencies are typically about 60 percent or better. Trans-tech technology approaches the finish quality of a conventional spray gun at near the efficiency of HVLP. Trans-Tech is used where compliance is not required but cost savings is important.

"question": "QHow do you set up the Searcher2/Searcher Content stack ?",
"answer": "Determine where you would like the searchable content to be located. The Searcher2/Searcher Content stack(s) can be placed anywhere in the main body by a simple drag & drop. It can also be placed in a sidebar, Extra Content Areas or any other area that allows html code. If you wish to place it in EC area or other areas, first drag it into the main body and then drag and drop the provided snippet named 'Searcher Content Append - HTML' into the desired location. Note: If placing in the Sidebar and the gear in the lower right corner of the Sidebar is set to 'Styled', then highlight the code you just placed and from the RapidWeaver menu select Format > Ignore Formatting. Note: the search functionality requires at least two searcher content areas to be set up in the site somewhere and at least one dummy content area, in addition to any other Content stacks, has to be on the Control page, as imported content is appended to the last content area (dummy content in this case). Change the Searcher Term(s) from 'searcher' to whatever search term(s) you want the content to be searchable by. To enter multiple terms, simply enter them with a comma between each one. Ex. Big,White,Cloud Each search term will show up as a separate selection item in the selection list. Note: For the dummy content stack, you can leave the search term as 'searcher' or set it to 'none' and either term will ensure the dummy stack is always hidden. The \"Outside Main Body\" checkbox should only be checked for content that will be placed in outer areas like the sidebar, Extra Content Areas or any other area that allows html code. This checkbox is to be used with the 'Searcher Content Append' snippet, which should be placed where you wish the content to be rendered. The searcher content code will be automatically rendered into the final location, but still remains in the main body for editing. The \"Show Link Button\" control allows you to enable the use of a link button for each (Searcher2 only) Content area. These buttons will not appear on the originating pages, as there is no need for them there. When assigning links, remember that the link paths will be relative to the Control Page. If the Control & Content pages are both in the same folder or in the root site folder, then you can select the link using the \"Page\" selector from the Add Link window. If the Content page is in a different folder, then use the \"URL\" selector to type in the relative path from the Control page to the Content Page."

"answer": "Also, the same question as it applies to “16th-century ornamental bridge.” Sometimes, I think writing has gone hyphen-crazy. A. As we say at 7.85, “In general, Chicago prefers a spare hyphenation style: if no suitable example or analogy can be found either in this section or in the dictionary, hyphenate only if doing so will aid readability.” You will find at CMOS 7.85 that adjectives formed with century are hyphenated; nouns are left open; for phrases like “car rental agency,” the writer can judge."

"question": "Does pattern balding hair loss also affect women?",
"answer": "Female pattern hair loss affects approximately one in four women and works in a similar way to male pattern balding. The main difference is that it spreads more slowly in women, due to the lower levels of testosterone in a woman’s body. Balding is less common in women than men due to the higher levels of oestrogen. Due to this, both of a woman’s parents must carry the hair loss gene in order for the problem to be activated.

{
"question": "Does the policy specify what data can be shared with non-Yale collaborators and clarify who owns the data?",
"answer": "Ownership is often defined by the primary funding source of the project. In all cases, but especially when collaborating, it is recommended that ownership is established at the start of a project. Data management plans, increasingly required by funders and strongly recommended by the University, provide an opportunity to establish clear roles and responsibilities. It is the responsibility of the PI or the researcher to determine what data are appropriate to share under this policy. In all cases, but especially when collaborating, it is recommended that roles and responsibilities are established at the start of a project so that rights and obligations are clear. The policy shall be consulted regarding research data ownership and sharing in the first instance. In the event disagreements about ownership among collaborators, the Office of the Provost will become involved and attempt to resolve the dispute. With respect to research materials, a Material Transfer Agreement (MTA) between Yale and other institutions or companies is needed in cases involving the exchange, sharing, or transfer of such materials."

"question": "If my house already sold at the sheriff’s sale, how am I able to still sell it?",
"answer": "Great question! You have certain rights from the time your house is sold at the sheriff sale through the end of your redemption period. Those include the right to occupy the house, the right to purchase the house back by paying cash or getting a new mortgage, and the right to sell the house to pay off the mortgage. Of course after all of those missed or late payments, unless you have a ton of equity (40% or more), no one will give you a new mortgage because of the damaged credit. Coming up with that giant pile of cash to pay off the old mortgage in full is also unlikely. This leaves your last likely option which is to sell it during the redemption period. If you owe more than what you owe (including all mortgages, not just the one that foreclosed), we may be able to help with a short sale (never a fee of course)."

In this case, the vehicle will be affixed with a sticker (usually on the driver's inside door jamb) that states \"This vehicle conforms to all applicable federal motor vehicle safety and theft prevention standards….\" If that's the case, congratulations! Your vehicle will cross the border. 2) Originally manufactured for the Canadian market. These vehicles will be affixed with a sticker (usually on the driver's inside door jamb) that states \"Canada Transport\" along with a picture of a maple leaf. In this case, we will verify for you that your selection is equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) and a Miles Per Hour (MPH) dominant speedometer; where necessary the speedometer is converted from Kilometers to MPH. As a U.S. resident purchasing for export from Canada you are exempt from our sales taxes. You will still be responsible for your local federal and state taxes, no different than purchasing at home. This will be levied by the U.S. government if your selected vehicle was manufactured outside of North America.

"question": "Home > Stop Smoking FAQ > What about weight gain?",
"answer": "By Michael D. Myers, M.D., as published on his homepage. Reused with kind permission. \"When people stop smoking, they commonly gain weight. Most people think that they are substituting food for cigarettes. This is partially correct. Smoking is usually a different form of oral gratification that obviously does not involve the consumption of calories. However, smoking does have another effect - it actually increases caloric requirements. A person who smokes requires approximately 10% more calories to maintain their body weight than when they are not smoking. Therefore, if a person maintains constant food intake and exercise and stops smoking, their body weight is expected to increase between 5% and 10%. \"An excellent way to help counter this is to exercise consistently. For example, start walking 30 minutes a day three to four times a week - a very feasible goal. Another approach is recording your food intake. If you write down everything you eat before you eat it, you will become much more aware of what you are eating. This helps you make better food choices, thereby helping you maintain your weight. \"It is much more important to stop smoking than to worry about weight gain. The deleterious effects of smoking far outweigh the effects of putting on a few extra pounds. Some people think that when they stop smoking it is also a good time to go on a strict diet. This is not recommended because both are very stressful and it is extremely difficult to do both effectively. Usually, people do not succeed at either and feel like failures. Remember that it is important to stop smoking first. Then you can deal with your weight more effectively. MICHAEL D. MYERS, M.D. Inc.\n(US) 90720 phone: 1-310-493 2266.\""

It is sensitive to IR wavelengths up to 820nm and can be used to produce unique halation effects with filtration and by varying the exposure length. It is suitable for working in both daylight and tungsten conditions and is characterized by a fine grain structure, notable sharpness, and high resolving power. Additionally, a good contrast profile offers clear separation between shadow and highlight regions. We say that we have a meandering interest in America and Americana. Sometimes we have destinations in mind - architectural wonders, literary landmarks or historic sites. Other times, as we drive from show to show and place to place, we take backroads or detours to explore random attractions or landscapes that catch our attention. People we meet at shows are also helpful. Once they see the collection, they often have suggestions for places they would love to see in infrared. We're very gratified that so many people seem to share our eclectic interests and have embraced our collection."

"question": "What Time Of Day Do You Do Your Photography?",
"answer": "A lot of people hear infrared and think night photography, but in fact we do all of our work during the day. Heat waves do not refract but light waves do. That's where the magic happens. To get the best effect, we need direct light, so we generally work anytime between an hour or so after sunrise to the hour or so before sunset. We can also shoot in diffused light (stormy weather, fog, etc) but the angle of the light needs to be pretty direct and not oblique."
},
{
"question": "Do Any Animals See In Infrared?",
"answer": "This question - specifically the use of the word manipulated - doesn't actually apply to our work. Let me explain why. We do FINE ART photography, not PHOTOJOURNALISM. These are very different professions with very little overlap. True, we both use cameras and strive to create powerful images, but that is where the similarities end. The photojournalist creates compelling images that support or tell stories that are - by definition - factual. They are bound by professional standards and ethics not to compromise the honesty of their visual reporting by 'manipulating' their images. This issue has received a tremendous amount of attention recently, especially after an unprecedented number of photos were disqualified from the 2015 World Press Photo Competition due to excessive or blatant post processing. The New York Times hosted a thought provoking conversation on this subject last February. These coversations are essential to the evolution of photojournalism, but they have no place in fine art photography. We are first and foremost artists. The stories we tell through our chosen medium are not bound by rules of realism, they are as limitless as our imaginations. Russell and I have chosen a particular technique and process that is inherently surreal. Trees glow with white radiance, grasses look frosty or dream-like. As a personal preference, we try to capture 'real' scenes and let our compositions and process take the lead in 'making the magic.' Having said that, though, we will use every tool and technique at our disposal to bring our vision to fruition. We are passionate about the Impressionists and the Fauves (wild beasts) who followed them. We admire these artists for boldly breaking new ground and pushing the boundaries of their craft. It is their fearless spirit that guides us - not the principles of photojournalism."

"question": "Why Do You Do Black And White Infrared?",
"answer": "Russell created a vibrant collection of Gulf coast images, and we admire the work of many talented color photographers, but we share a life-long love of black and white photography. Using black and white photography allows us to focus on tone and texture in an entirely different way. The infrared twist also allows us to give people a new experience with places they've seen many times before. Our favorite compliment is when someone sees a landmark that is as familiar to them as the back of their hand and they say, \"Wow! I've never seen it like this!\""
},
{
"question": "Why Don't You Have Any Photos Of Europe?",
"answer": "Our goal is to photograph all 50 states in infrared and create a book that combines these images and with thought-provoking essays that celebrate the beauty and unique character of our country. This is an ambitious project and we are proud of the work that we've already done, but it doesn't leave us anytime to explore Europe - yet!"

"question": "Does the Heritage frame fold flat against the wall?",
"answer": "Yes, our new Heritage Hand Quilting Frame has been carefully designed to fold flat for storage, without removing the quilt. It also features an accessory tray and a high quality work lamp."

{
"question": "Do the cracks in the paint on my Voyager 17 mean it is broken?",
"answer": "The Voyager was introduced as an economical option for an extended arm, hand-guided machine. It is intended for hobby use. The Voyager is a stretched industrial sewing machine. The process to stretch the machine includes cutting it and installing an ugly structural extension. Hinterberg then hid the ugly extension with a body putty. They shaped the body putty to look like the rest of the industrial machine and painted to match the original machine. Over time many of these stretched machines developed small cracks where the body putty receded from the original machine. Mostly this is caused by the extended drying period of this type of compound. The small crack is simply cosmetic, it is not a structural defect. The small crack does not interfere with the performance of the machine. The only time this crack has been associated with a structural defect has been when there is damage from shipping or handling. If you have this cosmetic flaw, you have done nothing wrong. You do not need to do anything. Keep using your machine and improving your skills. Most of all have fun finishing your quilts."
},
{
"question": "Can I trade my Voyager in for a larger longarm?",
"answer": "Yes, we have plenty of options for you on this one. The Hinterberg product line was purchased by Nolting Longarm Quilting Machines. www.nolting.com Nolting has been making very favorable trades toward the larger machines that Nolting makes. Usually the trade value for a Voyager is 50% of your original purchase price. Look up your original purchase price so you know how much you will receive in credit when you trade. Call us at the factory for more information."

{
"question": "Can I quilt a square quilt in a round hoop?",
"answer": "Round Hoops have been successfully used for centuries for every kind of needlework. Nearly all needlework is done on woven fabric. Round hoops give you even tension and grip firmly. Our hoops hold fabric without slipping, and used correctly, do not distort the weave in any way. It is easier to reach all areas of the hoop with a round hoop. There are no corners to get in your way. Thousands of quilters all over the world prefer round hoops over oval or square. We suggest that if you are not able to work on your unfinished quilt for any length of time, that you take it out of the hoop, so as not to create creases in the fabric."
},
{
"question": "What is the difference between hand quilting frames?",
"answer": "Our Heritage Frame is a hand-quilting. These frames are constructed from highest quality, furniture grade select white ash hardwood. The Heritage has three quilt rollers for no-baste quilting and everything you need to make prize-winning quilts. It will fold flat, with or without the quilt mounted, for easy storage against a wall or in a closet. It also has large ratchet wheels for finer tension adjustment, and has a wider range of height and tilt adjustment. It will tilt the quilt surface to a vertical position for storage, or just to admire your handiwork. This also keeps pets from sleeping on your quilt and stretching it. We designed a frame for every quilter in every price range. Both our kits, the Easy Build Kit and the Easy Build Plus are made with the same high quality construction and no-baste features found in our other frames. With the Easy Build Kit, we supply all the hardware and the small hardwood parts. You buy the lumber to build the larger, main parts of the frame and three pieces of 1 ¼\" thinwall metal conduit for the rollers. With the Easy Build Plus we supply everything except three pieces of 1 ¼\" thinwall metal conduit for the rollers and one piece of 1 x 8 lumber for the trestle."
},
{
"question": "Can I get even tensioning using ratchet wheels?",
"answer": "Large Ratchet wheels allow the quilt to be rolled easily, and the tension to be tightened or loosened easily, in very small increments. Each layer is tensioned separately, allowing for even tensioning of backing and top. This is important because your top has hundreds of seams, and will stretch much easier than the backing which may have few or no seams."
},
{
"question": "Do you have enough space to set up an 8 foot by three foot frame?",
"answer": "If not, you may wish to consider the Homestead Hoop right away. The other factor is style of quilting. If you are used to a hand held hoop and like to stitch only in one direction, a hoop is your best choice. Our hoops rotate 360 degrees so you can tilt and turn your work any which way. The 14\" Lap Hoop is a good choice for small projects, other embroidery, or travel. If your space is limited, but you still prefer a full size frame, the Heritage frame does disassemble very easily, without removing your quilt from the rollers. The Easy Build takes a bit more time, but has the capability of tilting the top (work surface) to a vertical position for storage while still set up. If you use a frame, your quilt is rolled up off the floor and once mounted on the frame is there until completion. Tension is better and basting is nearly eliminated."
},
{
"question": "How do I attach my quilt to the Frame?",
"answer": "There are several methods, but basically the quilt is basted or pinned to a strip of sturdy cloth which is permanently attached to the rollers. Depending on whether you have metal or wood rollers, the cloth can be tacked, stapled, glued, or taped to the rollers. It need not be heavy duty cloth and should not be stiff. Each frame includes instructions on how to make and attach the cloth aprons or you may order the cloth aprons from us.The edges of the quilt cannot be permanently attached to the frame, because it is rolled and they would have to be reattached often. Use this link for instructions on how to attach your quilt to the Hand frame. Use this link for instructions on how to attach your quilt to the Machine frame.

{
"question": "What is the difference between the Easy Build Kit and The Easy Build Plus?",
"answer": "Both the Easy Build \"Basic\" kit and \"Plus\" kit produce the same finished frame. The Basic kit includes all of the hardware for the frame, many of the small, intricate wooden parts that would be difficult to make on your own and the plans to build the rest of the frame. You will need to purchase 2x6 pine boards to create the end frames. It involves cutting and drilling the end frames to the correct finished size. Then you add the 1x8 trestle board and the 1-1/4\" metal conduit rollers to complete the frame. The Plus Kit includes the everything in the basic kit PLUS the completed end frames. All you need to do is assemble the end frames, then add the 1x8 trestle and rollers to make the frame your desired length. In both kits, the plans are very clear. A minimum of tools are needed to build the Easy Build Kit. It is however a woodworking project, so it is necessary to have some knowledge of woodworking techniques. Both frames include instructions for mounting the quilt on the frame."
},
{
"question": "If I don't put a finish on my frame, will the acid in the wood damage my quilt?",
"answer": "In 28 years of making quilting frames, there has never been any complaints of staining of fabric on unfinished hoops or frames. There is nothing in the ash that will harm your fabric. Also, on a frame, the quilt fabric doesn't touch the wood rollers. The ash or metal quilt rollers are covered by the leader fabric used to attach the quilt to the frame. We do recommend putting a finish on the frame to protect the wood from fingerprints and scratches."
},
{
"question": "Why do you specify metal poles for the Easy Build Kits?",
"answer": "Wood is a wonderful building material, but in long lengths it tends to warp.Thinwall conduit is strong, straight, easy to find, inexpensive, galvanized so it doesn't rust, and is a standard size. We include wood caps for the ends of the rollers to finish them off nicely. Once a quilt is mounted on the frame, you don't see the metal anyway."
},
{
"question": "Will it hurt to leave the wood unfinished?",
"answer": "Rest Assured, all frames can be used unfinished. Generally you put a finish on your frame for cosmetic reasons, and to protect the wood from finger prints and foot prints which over time may begin to show. White Ash has a beautiful open grain, which looks very much like oak. It can be stained and finished easily using inexpensive interior finishes available at your hardware or building center. We actually recommend not finishing the poles. Our Heritage Hand Quilting frame uses kiln-dried white ash for the poles. Contrary to some opinions, there is nothing in the wood to damage your quilt. Also when you attach a cloth apron to the poles, the quilt does not even touch the wood."
},
{
"question": "Which sewing machines do you recommend for the 'Original Machine Frame'?",
"answer": "There are many machines that work wonderfully with the frame. You do not need a machine that has all the bells and whistles; infact all you need is a machine that sews a single straight stitch. The frame will accommodate a machine with up to an 11\" throat, so to optimize your sewing area a machine with an 11\" throat would be best. Consider the fact that one of the poles runs through the throat area of the machine. You lose the diameter of the pole plus the space taken up by the quilt rolled up on that roller as you sew further along. If you have a machine with a 7\" throat by the time you have a queen size quilt rolled up inside the throat, you would only have 2\" of sewing space left. That can create for a very frustrating situation. There are several machines on the market today with throats of 9\" and larger that would work nicely. The Nolting MAQ14 www.nolting.com machine has an 14\" throat and is perfect for getting the maximum sewing pleasure out of your Original Machine Frame."

"question": "Home » FAQs » Car and Auto Accidents » What Are Some Factors That Affect A Car Accident Settlement In Texas?",
"answer": "If you are involved in a car accident in the state of Texas, you need to be aware of the various factors that can ultimately affect your settlement. Every claim is different, which is why there is no blanket settlement amount that covers every case. In other words, you can’t research how much you’ll ultimately be awarded, and no lawyer can tell you. You must present your case to the best of your ability and let the chips fall where they may. And some of the factors that can affect your settlement are completely out of your control, which is why hiring a lawyer to represent you is one of the smartest things you can do. Medical expenses have, without a doubt, one of the heaviest impacts on your accident settlement. Your settlement can even be affected by the time it took you to seek medical treatment from the date of the accident. Not only that, but the doctors you saw for treatment can even affect your claim as well. For instance, if you went to a doctor or clinic who specializes in treating accident victims, then it is accepted that these doctors drove up their costs because they knew their expenses would be paid by your eventual lawsuit. Don’t be denied reimbursement for legitimate medical treatment simply because the insurance company has a bias over the doctor you went to. A Dallas car accident lawyer can fight for that money that is rightfully yours. If your case ends up before a court of law, the court may argue precedence when making a decision in your case. What this means is that if your case is similar to other cases that have been argued in the past, the court will be all too glad to make a similar ruling and be done with your case. However, as we established earlier, no two cases are exactly alike, and you deserve to have the details of your case heard. Many individuals feel apprehensive about speaking out in court, even when they have the right, because they don’t want to anger the judge. If you are one of these people, then you need a car accident lawyer by your side. Those who don’t speak up often don’t get what they’re entitled to. If you find yourself unable to speak, let us do the necessary talking for you. When filing a claim, your end result is the amount of damages you hope to recover, whether they are for medical treatment or the repair or replacement of your vehicle. You may not get everything you ask for, though, and there are reasons for that. Current damages are the easiest of the three types of damages to figure out because they are the easiest to prove. The court simply needs to arrive at a number that will compensate you for your current medical treatment, the damage to your car, and the loss of income. When calculating potential future damages, you may need to bring in an expert to testify as to what is usually awarded in cases like these and how much, therefore, you are entitled to in yours. Future medical expenses are tough to consider because you may need surgery, you may not. You may need physical therapy, you may not. You may need a long course of medication, or you may be out of work for a long time. It’s tough to say in the beginning. It is also difficult to determine how much you will need to recover in lost wages."
},
{
"question": "Who can tell at this point in time how long you’re going to be out of work?",
"answer": "This is why you need both a lawyer and an expert who have experience in this field and who can inform the court of their best estimates to arrive at an appropriate damages award for you. Non-economic damages, otherwise known as “pain and suffering,” are the toughest damages to determine. It is very difficult to prove just how much someone is suffering, especially mentally. The best way to do that is to show the effect the accident has had on your overall quality of life. A good lawyer can help the insurance company and the court empathize with you to help you get the compensation you need."
