"answer": "Letting your holiday home in Salcombe is simple – just give us a call! We’ll pop round whenever it’s convenient for you and get you all set up. We handle everything for you, so you don’t have to worry about anything – from taking bookings to arranging cleaning, to handing over the keys and making sure everything’s left the way it should be ready for your next guests. We not only offer bookings and property management services for your holiday home, we also provide insider knowledge of Salcombe and the lettings market here, so you’ll always be in good hands."
},
{
"question": "Why should I use an agent rather than doing it myself?",
"answer": "There are plenty of reasons that holiday home owners choose to use an agent to market their properties. We save you the time and hassle of finding guests, dealing with bookings, answering queries and other admin. When it comes to taking payments, we have all the security certificates and PCI compliance set up – there are legal requirements for taking payments over the phone, for example, and they can be costly and time-consuming for individual homeowners. We also have the advantage of already having an internet presence, so it’s easier for a new property to be found than if you were starting from scratch by yourself."
},
{
"question": "Can I still use my property for my own holidays?",
"answer": "Of course! Your holiday home is yours, and you should use it. In fact, staying in the property periodically helps you see things from a customer perspective, which is always beneficial. All you need to do is block out the time you plan to visit in the calendar so we don’t book someone else in. Absolutely, yes. As insurers consider any kind of letting to be a slightly higher risk, you need to make sure that your policy covers you as a holiday letting – not all landlord policies do as they’re designed for longer-term rentals. If you don’t have a specific insurance policy, you could run the risk that any claim would be denied – it’s never a good idea to hide anything from the insurance company!"
},
{
"question": "Do I need a special mortgage?",
"answer": "Some mortgage lenders have restrictions on short term lets, so you should always checked with your lender to make sure they’re happy with you letting out your holiday home. If your current lender doesn’t allow it, there are providers who will. These change frequently, so make sure you get up to date advice – speak to a mortgage broker or financial adviser if you’re not sure."

"question": "What additional benefits does a title policy provide?",
"answer": "Purchasing real estate in Mexico has changed dramatically over the past ten (10) years for foreign, non-Mexican nationals. Beginning in 1994, the federal government of Mexico liberalized ownership provisions of all property within the constitutionally protected area known as the 'prohibited zone.' Prospective buyers outside of Mexico's borders seeking to buy tourist (housing developments, condominiums and time share projects), rustic, industrial or urban property can now enjoy greater legal freedom and ownership rights as mandated and protected under Mexico's new foreign investment law. In Mexico , as in the U.S. , the transfer of real estate property rights are administered by federal, state and local laws. Foreign nationals wishing to acquire property are subject to permission and registration with Mexico's Department of Foreign Affairs. This federal level agency is responsible for awarding the lawfully required permits and authorizations to purchase land in the Mexican Republic , as well as to acquire real estate properties or rights thereto. However, buying south of the border is not like buying property in the U.S. and purchasers must always remember that they are not in the United States. The Mexican legal system is not the same as its American equivalent. That is not to say that real estate transactions (operaciones) in Mexico are totally different or more complicated than in the US, but common sense should always be exercised. The worst a purchaser can do is to remain ignorant of the law and procedures involved in the conveyance of real estate in a foreign country. Mexico is not the \"wild west\" as some may perceive where anything goes and the prevailing Mexican attitude is \"trust me, no problema.\" It is inherently important for non-Mexican buyers to understand that Mexico has formality of law with authorized regulation of real estate development procedures at all levels and this formality is coupled with a statutory government framework for the legal conveyance of real property. Foreign purchasers should be aware of the same basic issues that any prudent buyer would utilize acquiring real estate. Additionally, they should not depend on the seller for information or advice about the property because they have no way of knowing whether it is correct. They should obtain the status of the title to the property requiring an in-depth title search. They should be knowledgeable of the type of contracts to be utilized for a purchase-sale agreement (compraventa) and preparation of the deed (escritura publica) by the notary public (notario publico) in Mexico. They should be aware of earnest money deposit and escrow considerations, and ultimately, a buyer should have an understanding of the actual conveyance method in Mexico and how legal title or beneficiary interest (fideicomiso) is vested and recorded for foreign purchasers. The first thing a buyer must consider is whether the seller of the property has legal title to the property, and if so, whether the property can be legally transferred. Although this seems to be a logical and foregone precaution, there have been many documented transactions in which foreigners thought they had acquired real estate only to find out later that the seller was unable to transfer legal title. Very simply, the seller didn't own the property or he had not completed the required development procedures for the conveyance of the real estate. A good example would be agrarian land (\"ejido\") not properly regularized, or the conveyance of a condominium unit that does not have a recorded condominium regime (regimen de condominio) or even the sale of a lot or house in a residential subdivision (fraccionamiento) that does not have the required and published state/municipal development approvals. In any of these cases, the result is that the purchaser has paid money for the acquisition of the property but can not receive legally recorded title or beneficiary interest in a Mexican bank trust. · An adequate title search of the property should be performed. · A buyer should always ask the seller for a copy of the escritura vesting title to the real estate. · The buyer should request a copy of the lien certificate (certificado de libertad de gravamen) on the property that should indicate the owner of record, surface area and classification of property type, the legal description and whether there are any liens or encumbrances filed of record against the property. · The buyer can also request a certificate of no tax liability (certificado de no aduedo) from the local taxing authority. · The notario publico is responsible for the title search in Mexican transactions. However, the notary typically only examines the current deed and a current lien certificate resulting in the possibility of a short or incomplete title history of the property. Today, there are US title companies, as well as Mexican companies, that facilitate the title examination process on a more in-depth basis and issue either a Commitment for Title Insurance on Mexico Land or a title report from the Mexican company. A foreign purchaser always has the option of hiring Mexican counsel to provide a legal opinion on the status of title as well. Most real estate transactions in Mexico will have at least two (2) contracts: (i) an offer and acceptance (oferta) and/or a promissory agreement (contrato de promesa): and, (ii) a purchase- sales agreement (contrato de compraventa). The first two are preliminary agreements containing the basic transactional information. They are not the instruments by which title to the property is transferred to the buyer. The second contractual document is the agreement to be protocolized by the notario which will transfer title to the buyer. It may have several different forms: a real estate trust agreement (contrato de fideicomiso), a reserve title agreement (contrato de compraventa con reserva de dominio) or an assignment of real estate trust rights (contrato de cesion de derechos fideicomisarios). The Civil Code defines an agreement (convenio) as an accord (acuerdo) between two or more persons to create, transfer, modify or extinguish obligations. Specifically, the Civil Code defines contracts as an agreement that produce or transfer obligations and rights. In general, real estate contracts in Mexico must be protocolized before a notary public and, to be binding on third parties, they must be filed with the public registry of property. Once there is a written acceptance to the offer, it is recommended that the buyer's attorney draw up the sales contract or promissory agreement. Since this agreement is the single most important document the buyer will execute with the seller, and the agreement's contents will determine the terms and conditions of the transaction, the buyer should insist that his attorney assume this responsibility. There are many aspects of Mexican real estate deals that are very similar to transactions closed in the United States. It is easy to presume that the basic terms and principals with which a purchaser is familiar in the US also hold true in Mexico. However, a foreign buyer is much better off to assume nothing. Two such terms are escrow (plica) and earnest money deposit. In the United States, an escrow or title company, or a person legally empowered to act as an escrow agent, will serve in the capacity of handling escrow functions and earnest monies. In either case, the company or individual whom carries out the escrow procedure is licensed and empowered by law to do so. They are legally responsible to see that the agreed upon conditions of an escrow agreement are met before any funds are released. This is not the norm in Mexico. Historically, foreign purchasers have given earnest money as contractual consideration to the seller. And in many cases, the real estate agent or broker involved in the transaction has served as an escrow agent. Real estate brokers are not licensed in Mexico and typically do not set-up separate accounts for earnest money deposits. The caveat here is expressly made in bold letters. If a foreign buyer is willing to give earnest money to the seller or the real estate agent in the transaction, be prepared not to get it back! Only until very recently have a couple of Mexican escrow companies come into existence utilizing US bank accounts for earnest money deposits. The same can be said for a few brokerage companies. A foreign buyer should always exercise caution and use common sense when it comes to their money and whom they're giving it to. As is often said, \"don't leave your brains at the border!\" Ultimately, foreign buyers get to the point where they are ready to have the transaction consummated and take title to the property. In Mexico , all real estate transactions and the legal conveyance of any type of property involve the participation of the notario publico. Although their title translates to 'public notary', the notario publico's responsibilities greatly exceed the formalization of signatures. Appointed by the Governor of the State and the Executive Branch of the federal government for a particular state district, notarios are attorneys that must pass two extensive examinations in order to receive their lifetime appointments. In a typical transaction, they will prepare the deed of conveyance subject to the 'protocolized' purchase-sale agreement. The notario brings buyer and seller together for the formalization of the property transfer and they authorize the appropriate signatures upon execution of the escritura. And lastly, after the property transfer has been formalized, the notario will record the escritura with the public registry of property where the property is located. Prior to the closing, the notario's additional duties include: (i) to examine the documents of the selling party to ensure their accuracy and legitimacy; (ii) to verify title; and (iii) to search the public records to determine the status of the seller's title to the property and the existence of liens against the property. The notario is also responsible for the collection of all applicable property taxes and government transfer taxes. As a representative of the State, however, the notario does not insure title to the real estate nor do they have any legal responsibility for title defects. In short, a purchaser can not seek restitution against a notario in the event the purchaser suffers a monetary loss due to a title defect unless fraud, misrepresentation or gross negligence could be proven in a Mexican court of law. Title to all real estate in the 'prohibited zone' being acquired by foreign purchasers can only be legally vested and recorded one of two ways: (i) in a Mexican bank trust (fideicomiso) for all residentially declared property; or (ii) in a Mexican corporation for all non-residential real estate. There is no in-between choice or 'gray area' concerning foreign acquisition in the restricted zone (100 km. along all borders, 50 km. along all coastlines, all of Baja California) of Mexico . Foreign nationals can be the sole and exclusive stockholders of a Mexican corporation that holds fee simple title to non-residential property in the prohibited zone. In any type of real estate acquisition in Mexico , non-Mexican purchasers must always register their ownership interest with the Secretary of Foreign Affairs and must waive their rights to foreign government intervention in the event of a property dispute. This is known as the Calvo Clause, which is constitutionally mandated, and is contained in all bank trust agreements. It should be noted that Mexican banks, acting as trustee for a foreign buyer in a fideicomiso, make no warranty or guarantee of the title to the property in the trust nor do they provide any restitution in the event of a title defect. Foreign buyers should always be advised to consult US or Mexican counsel regarding real estate transactions. They also can contact US title companies to assist them in answering questions about conveyance issues, title searches and title policies for a prospective property as well as escrow account considerations. And one last caveat buying public: if you are told by a seller or agent that this beautiful piece of land on the border or this lovely house on the beach does not need to be in a corporation or in a trust, or it does not need to be closed by a notario, walk away immediately.., and very quickly!! Most purchasers contemplating buying a house in Mexico are aware that Mexico has a \"restricted zone\" (50 kilometers along Mexico's entire coastline, 100 kilometers along all of Mexico's natural borders) per Article 27 of the Mexican Constitution. What many purchasers are not aware of is the Foreign Investment Law of Mexico ('FIL') originally established in 1971, amended to the 'New FIL' in December, 1993, and ultimately amended again in October, 1998. This FIL is known as the \"Reglamento de la Ley Inversion Extranjera y del Registro Nacional de Inversiones Extranjeras.\" Relative to properties within this prohibited area, the amended Foreign Investment Law's intent is to clearly and narrowly define what is residential property, what properties must be in a 'fideicomiso' (Mexican bank trust), and what properties are considered non-residential and therefore can be purchased by foreigners in a Mexican corporation. For the purpose of the terms set forth in Article 5, Title Two of the Law, real estate used for \"residential purposes\" shall mean any real estate destined \"exclusively for residential use of the owner or third parties.\" The following activities, without limitation, shall be deemed real estate held for non-residential purposes: (I) those destined for time-share use; (II) those destined for any industrial, commercial or tourism activity that may simultaneously contain a residential component; (III) real estate acquired by credit institutions, financial intermediaries, and auxiliary credit organizations to recover debts owed to them and in the ordinary course of business; (IV) real estate used by entities in the course of their business consistent with sale, development, construction, sub-division and other activities included in the development of real estate projects, until these are sold to third parties; and (V) generally, real estate destined for use in commercial, industrial, agricultural, cattle, fishing, forestry, or service-related activities. When in doubt whether real estate is deemed destined for residential purposes, the Ministry of Foreign relations shall resolve the matter in ten business days from the date the party consults the Ministry on the subject. If at the end of ten business days, the Ministry fails to respond, the use in question shall be deemed for non-residential purposes. Further, Article 6 of Title Two specifies that when in doubt on whether real property is located within or outside the restricted zone, the Ministry of Foreign Relations, on consultation with the National Institute of Statistics, Geography and Data Processing, shall decide as appropriate. And lastly, Article 7 of Title Two provides the notification procedure which interested parties must give to the Ministry of Foreign Relations. That is, (I) the location and description of the real estate; (II) a clear and accurate description of the uses to which the real estate in question is destined; and (III) an ordinary copy, in annex, of the public instrument, known as an \"escritura\", that records the formalization of the acquisition. The obvious would seem apparent. Real estate deals in Mexico close when the deed of conveyance is executed by the buyer and seller, money changes hands between the parties and the deed is then recorded in the public records. Simple and logical, only it isn't that simple in Mexico. For more than the past decade, an attitude and transactional manner has pervaded Mexico's residential beach market. It is an alarming methodology, non-standard by foreign expectations and one that puts foreign buyers at risk when purchasing residences in the \"restricted zone\" of Mexico. Amazingly, the comment given to foreigners desiring to buy in Mexico is, \"That's the way we do business here.\" The following scenario is typical regardless of the geographic locale and doesn't seem to vary much between Los Cabos, Puerto Vallarta, Puerto Peñasco or the Cancun corridor. A foreign buyer identifies a house, condo, villa or lot on the beach they want to buy. Usually they employ the services of a local real estate agent in that market who informs them that in order to proceed to a contract, an initial deposit is required. The deposit may range from $1,000 to $5,000 and the check is written to the agent or to the seller. Generally, the deposit is not tied to an escrow agreement with a third party acting as the escrow agent, and commonly it goes directly into the bank account of the agent. The buyer is told that the deposit is required just to get the process started and more times than not, the deposit will become non-refundable. Keep in mind, buying public, once you write the check and hand it over in Mexico, how are you going to get it back without an escrow agreement. Now we proceed to the letter of intent or the contract stage. The customary process in Mexico ultimately leads to an arrangement between the parties known as a \"promise to trust agreement\", though there may be other proposals or simple contracts prior to this final document. Upon execution of the promise to trust between the parties, the buyer is invariably required to pay the seller 100 percent of the agreed purchase price. Since the seller has agreed to convey the property and authorize the Mexican bank acting as trustee for the fideicomiso (bank trust) to transfer the beneficiary interest to the new purchaser, he is therefore entitled to all of his money! Real estate agents in Mexico will tell foreign purchasers the 'closing' of the transaction occurs when the promise to trust agreement is signed. Caveat emptor, nothing has closed! Understand what has transpired and what has not in order to have a legal and protocolized beneficiary interest established on the real property under Mexican foreign investment law. · You, the buyer, have given the seller all of the money contemplated in the transaction and yet you do not have a trust permit required by Mexican law to be issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in order to establish your beneficiary interest. · You do not have the escritura publica (public deed) prepared by the public notary in Mexico. The notary must be authorized by the trust bank to proceed with the transfer of the beneficiary interest via the public deed and which he must draft to effect the transfer. · There is no property appraisal prepared, yet that is a requirement under Mexican federal statutes for tax purposes in order for the fideicomiso to be established. · There is no lien certificate from the public registry that would indicate any liens or encumbrances on the property and is a required element of any real property conveyance. · The buyer, really doesn't even know if the seller has good title to the real estate in question."
},
{
"question": "Why should the agent be concerned with whether the buyer gets his fideicomiso established once he has received the fee due from the seller?",
"answer": "Besides, many agents will tell purchasers nothing can or will go wrong, and that is a fallacy."
},
{
"question": "Or what if the seller has sold the property twice, unknown to you or the agent?",
"answer": "The simple truth is you have given the seller your money with little or no chance to get it back other than a lawsuit in Mexico. In every real estate deal, buyers have choices. There are many properties for sale in Mexico. Buyers need to be smart and educated about the deal, deposits, title and conveyance matters. Many real estate developers sell their property with a percentage down at the time of the promise to trust agreement, with the balance paid when the public deed can be executed to establish the trust. Many developers, and more and more real estate agents, are utilizing third party escrows in the U.S. to protect foreign buyers. Full disclosure of potential issues is becoming more prevalent. Any property in Mexico can be researched and a title investigation can be done in order to issue an Owner's Policy of Title Insurance. Purchasers can be insured when they release their money to the seller upon execution of the escritura publica and the issuance of the notario's preventive notice to the public registry of property. At the end of the day, foreign buyers have a right to a transaction process that ultimately protects their investment and minimizes their risk. Those who participate in the sale of real estate in Mexico must strive to protect that which \"feeds and prospers them.\" When they don't, purchasers should walk away and buy elsewhere. For years foreign purchasers have been persuaded to \"purchase\" ejido parcels or beach front lots without fully understanding that they can't legally own ejido property nor can the ejidatarios (those individuals that have the beneficiary interest in the land) legally sell it."
},
{
"question": "Hence, all potential buyers of Mexican real estate should know the difference between private property and land denominated as \"ejido\"?",
"answer": "Article 27 of Mexico's Constitution allows the federal government of the United Mexican States to create agrarian lands for the benefit of their citizens. With its constitutional inception in 1917, Mexico began the process to provide 'campesinos' (farmers) a beneficiary interest to land owned by the government. Entitled under \"La Ley Agraria\" (the Agrarian Law), these government parcels, known as \"ejidos\", are recorded with the Registro Agrario Nacional (National Agrarian Registry) in Mexico City. The ejidatarios can live, farm, homestead and construct dwellings on the property but they do not own it. Under Agrarian Law, the ejidatarios can not sell, lease, subdivide, joint venture, contribute, mortgage or encumber the property. In essence, they have the use and benefit of the land, but they do not have title to it. In 1992, recognizing the inherent value ejidos presented due to their geographic, border or coastal location, coupled with the development potential they created, the Mexican government enacted a Constitutional Amendment in order to \"regularize\" agrarian lands. Under the auspices of the Office of Agrarian Reform, the Mexican government could now provide a process of legal entitlement converting the ejidal regimen to one of \"regimen de domino pleno o privado\" (regimen of full dominion or private land). In other words, ejidatarios had the right to take the land that they didn't own and convert it to private property thereby allowing them to benefit monetarily from the ensuing regularization process. However, there have been numerous cases and examples of Americans, Canadians and other non- Mexicans buying ejido land that has not been properly regularized. A purchaser, may have paid money for a lot on the beach with the promise that they would receive a bank trust only to find out years later that the land had not been properly privatized. The end result is that the purchaser can not have a legally recorded and recognized beneficiary interest to the property in a Mexican bank trust, i.e., title vested in a fideicomiso, nor can you have a valid lease as a legal alternative to use the property. Mexico is not the 'wild west' that some foreign purchasers believe it to be. With formality of law, as in other real estate matters, regularization of an ejido is a legal process requiring time, procedure and lots of patience. The ultimate goal is to get private title to each parcel that can then be conveyed to a trust or Mexican corporation for the benefit of non-Mexican purchasers. However, there are a number of steps along the way that you, the buying public, should be aware of in order for ejido land to be privatized."
},
{
"question": "EIGHTH: Once the ejidatario has the private title, did he/she request in writing that the title be recorded in the Public Registry of Property for the municipality in which the property is located?",
"answer": "The ejido itself is normally a large tract of land that is utilized by all of the ejidatarios for their sustenance. Managed and operated in a similar fashion to that of a farm cooperative, the ejido has no land subdivision or individual parcels. Subdividing the ejido into \"parcelas\" is what the regularization process accomplishes. Typically, the privatization of ejido land can take six (6) to twelve (12) months to complete, but it may take longer. Though this time period would appear lengthy, one must keep in mind that there are many individuals involved that must come to a unified and collective decision to privatize the ejido. Negotiations within the ejido on whether to privatize or not could take several months. Then, even when an ejidatario or a group of ejidatarios want to sell, lease or joint venture their particular private parcels to a third party outside the ejido, they must offer a first right of refusal to all of the other ejidatarios. This process, known as \"derecho al tanto\", usually means that the ejidatarios must give notice to the comisariado of the ejido (president) of their intent to sell, lease or joint venture. The president should provide a public disclosure of the intent and if, after thirty (30) days, there are no purchasers or objections, the ejidatarios may proceed. There are many examples of ejidos being properly regularized and the subsequent wonderful developments that have come from these once government lands. Whether in Puerto Peñasco, Los Cabos, Puerto Vallarta, Mazatlán, Guadalajara, Reynosa, Querertaro or many other cities in Mexico, residential, resort and industrial developers on both sides of the border have undertaken the process to successfully privatize ejido property knowing the inherent value of the future project. Buying land that was entitled as an ejido can be a safe and prosperous personal or business venture. The caveat, buying public, is to make sure that the land has been fully privatized or is in the process of regularization. And to be certain, purchase an Owner's Policy of Title Insurance for your property. A title insurance policy, issued on Mexican land, can insure that the land is not ejido. With the title insurance policy in hand, protecting your ownership rights, you'll probably sleep better at night. In the United States, American citizens may exclude the capital gain they realize when they sell their principal residence after occupying it for a period of not less then two years during the five years preceding the sale and meeting other specific IRS requirements. That is to say, there is no federal income tax liability on up to US$250,000 gain (US$500,000 gain for joint filers) on the sale of their primary residence. Mexico has a similar provision in its tax code. Pursuant to the Mexico Tax Revenue Code (Código Fiscal de La Federación), Mexican nationals and foreign owners of a residence in Mexico may be entitled to certain tax exemptions on the capital gain realized if the \"home\" is a \"primary\" residence. The issue of capital gains tax has long been a troubling problem for many foreign purchasers of residential property in Mexico. Many sellers, whether Mexican or foreign, have tried to reduce their tax liability on the sale of a residence by using a lower \"declared value\" in the transaction rather than using the actual sales price. As a result, an unknowing buyer can inherit additional tax consequences when they ultimately sell the home in question because their \"basis\" in the property is less than what they actually paid. For several years now, some real estate agents in Mexico have advised their non-Mexican clients not to worry about capital gains taxes because they would qualify for an exemption. They often advised the prospective buyer that he or she would be able to demonstrate to the local public notary (notario publico), who is responsible for the collection and payment of the capital gains tax, that the residence was their primary residence and therefore qualify for the exemption. At the very least, this was misleading and poor advice to receive from a seller or real estate agnet. At its worst, it could be considered tax fraud."

{
"question": "for business income purposes located in Mexican Territory?",
"answer": "If you have answered \"yes\" to these questions, you may be considered a Mexican Resident and may be entitled to some residency benefits such as the capital gains tax exemption. You should always contact a local notario publico to discuss the specific requirements and benefits of Mexican Residency. You should also consult with other Mexican legal counsel and tax advisors to explore these and other possible benefits. American and other foreign buyers of Mexican residential property must be aware of Mexico's capital gains tax liability when they sell. If the original Seller did not declare the total purchase price when selling the property, the Buyer could face increased capital gains tax liability when the Buyer sells the property due to the artificially reduced basis. It is not uncommon for this consequence to be a \"deal killer\" when the buyer seeks to sell the property and discovers that he or she must write a check just to cover the income tax due at the pending sale. This is a clear case of caveat emptor, let the buyer beware! One simple solution to this problem is to declare the actual purchase price in the sale of all real estate. *This article is only intended to provide general information. It is not intended to be relied upon as legal, accounting, tax or other professional advice or services. Please consult with legal counsel and a tax advisor to address your concerns. The real property conveyance process in Mexico, like any other civil code system in South and Central America, and many other countries in the world, is reliant upon individuals to transfer ownership rights. These highly educated and \"hand picked\" public notaries have the obligation, right and privilege to consummate all real estate transactions within their given territorial jurisdiction. Their acknowledgment and certification procedure provides \"judicial certainty\" to the authenticity of the process. With this process in place, Mexico can be said to have a good land conveyancing system. However, one must never lose sight of the fact that it is a system reliant on the performance of various people, not just the public notary. Sellers, buyers, agents, surveyors, property recorders and municipal employees all come into the mix. And as we have all learned throughout the annals of time, human beings, though not intending to do so, do make mistakes. Errors are made. We are not infallible. In real estate matters though, mistakes can be costly and create significant losses. For that reason alone, reliance upon a monetary indemnification that guarantees remuneration in the event of loss due to a title defect or error is a must. Suing the seller to recover property or money, whether in the United States or in a foreign jurisdiction, is a tough alternative to the viability of title insurance. Title insurance on Mexican real estate is more than just a title insurance policy. It is an in-depth examination concerning title documents, and real estate closing process. In order to issue an Owner's Policy of Title Insurance , and assume the inherent monetary liability that comes with the policy issuance, the insuring company must be as certain as possible regarding all of the various elements in the property transfer. The process of the title insurance company, is to eliminate risk by examining all of the relevant issues today. If given the opportunity, a title insurance company may inform both buyer and seller of the relevant concerns that may be outstanding or in process prior to the consummation of the property conveyance. This type of investigation coupled with financial indemnification gives the non-Mexican purchaser of real estate comfort and security knowing that a company with over 100 years of expertise has examined all of the title matters and issues a title policy. When compared to the other closing costs associated with real property conveyances in Mexico , i.e., transfer taxes and notary fees, an Owner's Policy of Title Insurance will for the most part be the cheapest. Since title policies are fully negotiable contracts of indemnity, a title company can consider and insure a variety of title matters for the benefit of the proposed insured. For example a title insurance policy has the ability to provide affirmative coverage and endorsements that protect purchasers against risks that may be discovered in the title search process. How can any one individual, even a notario publico, give these types of assurances that have real dollars standing behind the assurance and that ultimately will protect a buyer in the event of a loss. Never forget one thing, no matter who tells you that title insurance isn't necessary, just remember that it is the ONLY monetary indemnification that you will receive protecting your ownership rights. *Subject to certain limits as provided in the policy. Since purchasers first began claiming and acquiring ownership of land there has never been a time when he has not needed some form of title assurance. The very nature of land induces a need for title assurance because its characteristics differ from other forms of property. Land titles are symbolic because the title is what a purchaser gets when he purchases real estate rather than actual delivery of the property. For this reason, it is highly important that a purchaser have the best assurance possible that his title is good, unencumbered and free of flaws, or that he have an indemnity against loss due to a title defect. Historically, a purchaser's lack of knowledge of the complexities of land titles have caused him to discount the importance of land title assurance. Knowing little or nothing about titles, real estate buyers have consistently relied on the advice of others. They have been led to believe that it is not necessary to look back into a title beyond a couple of previous ownerships, that the public records contain information with respect to every possible title hazard and that an attorney's opinion gives positive assurance of a safe title. Conditioned as the public has become through traditions and practices, it is inconceivable that a title could be completely lost irrespective of the customary assurances available. Prior to the inception of title insurance, it became obvious in the late 1800s that the U.S. needed a more secure form of title assurance - a form based upon indemnity dollars instead of word of mouth reliability. And now today, over 100 years later, foreign purchasers of real estate in Mexico face the same dilemma. The land conyeancing process in Mexico is a good one, however, any title defect that can occur in the US can also occur in Mexico with other potential hazards looming on the horizon uncommon in US property conveyances. \"Ejido\" claims or expansions, labor liens, fideicomiso (Mexican bank trust entitlements), property regularization and permitted use issues can pose significantly detrimental problems to unknowing purchasers of Mexican real estate. Moreover, little if no legal recourse is afforded the purchasing public against the public notary who closes all real estate transactions in Mexico or against Mexico's public registry of property concerning title or lien defects, omissions, gaps in ownership or recording errors. A title insurance policy issued on Mexican property provides a comfort and security benefit to foreign purchasers and is the only safeguard against title pitfalls resulting in eventual Mexican lawsuits and monetary losses. For more information about ordering title insurance policies contact [email protected]. Money, and the possession or deposit of it into \"broker escrow accounts\", has historically been the downfall of many competent real estate professionals. Real estate agents and companies have literally gotten 'killed' abusing this concept. Licensed real estate practitioners in the United States , have to complete state-mandated educational requirements and testing competency to obtain a real estate salesman license. At the forefront of any real estate schools education curriculum is the emphatic and stringent requirement that agents cannot and should not \"co-mingle\" purchasers earnest money deposits in broker accounts. If there has ever been one real estate concept that can have catastrophic consequences to all parties involved, it is not handling a purchaser's deposit in a safe, secure and accountable manner with the implicit understanding that there is a 'fiduciary' obligation to safeguard the buyer's money... always! It has long been said and preached that \"if a purchaser is willing to give money to the seller or the agent in a real estate acquisition, be prepared not to get it back!\" There can be no truer words to live by in Mexico . Unfortunately, it is a sad reality and the reality has reared its ugly head in Mexico. Purchasers in a particular Mexico market \" the particular market not being the issue\" deposited funds in good faith and entrusted these moneys to the agent's \"broker trust account.\" One would think that the term trust would imply some sort of confidence and security in the deposit vehicle, yet in this case, it was an oxymoron. The stark reality is that the money is gone, and it's a huge amount of money. The agent is gone as well, having fled Mexico and leaving these unprotected \"good faith\" buyers to ponder what now. Their sole remedy and recourse to date has been to file complaints with Mexico' s consumer protection agency, \"PROFECO.\" The likelihood that any of them will recover any of their money is slim and none, and slim already left Mexico ! The alternative to broker escrows or giving money to the seller is to utilize third party escrow accounts. Some Mexican banks will handle deposits for real estate transactions, charging an escrow fee of approximately $450 to $500. There are however several drawbacks to Mexican bank escrow accounts. First and foremost is that Mexican banks do not utilize formalized escrow agreements that have been negotiated and executed per mutual agreement between the seller and the buyer and additionally signed with acknowledgement by the bank as agent. Mexican banks simply hold the money until notification to release it. They traditionally do not invest the money into interest bearing accounts for the benefit of the depositor as well. It has also been the practice of the banks to use the funds internally. The end result is that the subsequent refund or transfer of the deposited amount is not readily available nor is it handled in a timely and expeditious manner. The best and most favorable manner to handle earnest money and escrow deposits involving Mexican real property transactions is with a U.S. title insurance company who has a fiduciary obligation and responsibility as the \"escrow agent.\" Some agents and developers in Mexico do not like to utilize escrow accounts in the United States for one simple reason: they do not control the money! Understanding that there is a total lack of construction financing in Mexico, an overall level of illiquidity in lending of any type, and the subsequent upfront deposits required by many developers to begin construction notwithstanding, there is still no reason why third party escrows should not be used to protect the foreign buying public. Or for any buyer! The prevailing concept of \"passing the money\" when the seller and buyer enter into a promissory agreement is antiquated, self-serving, and at best a huge risk for purchasers. As in the United States , consideration or the purchase price due -less any earnest money deposit- should be paid when a buyer is able to receive a protocolized deed by the notario publico and the transfer of the real property interest. It should not be when the buyer can get the keys to the condo or \"possession\" of it. The ultimate benefit of third party escrow is the basic fact that an escrow agreement exists, fully negotiated and mutually agreed upon between the seller and the buyer. It is a \"stand alone\" document that instructs the escrow agent precisely in the manner in which the escrowed funds are to be deposited, handled and ultimately disbursed. The escrow agent is bound to the stated terms of the agreement and has a fiduciary obligation to follow the letter of the agreement. It is not subject to interpretation or conjecture, nor is the escrow required to interpret how money will be handled per a purchase contract. Moreover, the escrow deposit can be put in a federally insured depository with the establishment of a money market interest bearing account. The subsequent accrued interest can be designated for the benefit of the seller or the buyer. But at all times, the parties know where the money is. It is verifiable once the account has been opened and it is always referenced directly to a guaranty file as maintained by the escrow agent with full disclosure of all salient facts and account numbers. If a dispute arises between the parties concerning the disposition of the escrowed funds, the escrow agent may \"interplead\" the funds with a court of competent jurisdiction. But at no time will the money be released to anyone without the written mutual consent of the parties."

"question": "What is the relationship between Dashboards, Panels, and navigation?",
"answer": "The navigational structure is strongly encouraged to flow from Dashboard objects as top-level navigation items to Panel objects as sub-navigation items as in the current implementation. Template tags are provided to automatically generate this structure. That said, you are not required to use the provided tools and can write templates and URLconfs by hand to create any desired structure."
},
{
"question": "Does a panel have to be an app in INSTALLED_APPS?",
"answer": "A panel can live in any Python module. It can be a standalone which ties into an existing dashboard, or it can be contained alongside others within a larger dashboard “app”. There is no strict enforcement here. Python is “a language for consenting adults.” A module containing a Panel does not need to be added to INSTALLED_APPS, but this is a common and convenient way to load a standalone panel."
},
{
"question": "Could I hook an external service into a panel using, for example, an iFrame?",
"answer": "Panels are just entry-points to hook views into the larger dashboard navigational structure and enforce common attributes like RBAC. The views and corresponding templates can contain anything you would like, including iFrames."
},
{
"question": "What does this mean for visual design?",
"answer": "The ability to add an arbitrary number of top-level navigational items (Dashboard objects) poses a new design challenge. Horizon’s lead designer has taken on the challenge of providing a reference design for Horizon which supports this possibility."

{
"question": "Can I extend my subscription before my current subscription expires?",
"answer": "Yes, simply select the subscription period, and pay at check out. The additional duration purchased is added to your current expiry date. The 11+ (eleven plus) is a selective entrance examination for grammar schools, undertaken by primary school children who are in year 6, aged 10 or 11 years old, (over 10 years, but under 12 years old) during September to October of the year prior to admission to seconday schools. There are no standard national examinations for secondary schools. The examinations can include Verbal reasoning alone, or also English (comprehension, vocabulary, cloze passages, synonyms and antonyms), Mathematics and Non-verbal reasoning. Results are usually provided during mid to the end of October, before the deadline of secondary school choice applications. Formal offers of places are made during the following March. Most educational authorities discourage intensive tutoring and claim their 11+ exams are tutor-proof, but this should not be believed. Tuition, whether formal or parental will help. Preparation is key and we believe 11+ practice should begin in year 4 and extend to year 5. By the end of year 5 a child should be one year ahead of his age group. As a result WordBuilder is extremely useful for vocabulary building, which is critical for Verbal reasoning, comprehension, cloze passages, synonyms and antonym questions. 8."
},
{
"question": "Why are WordBuilder cloze passages only available for certain age groups?",
"answer": "Cloze passages are useful for 11+ and independent school exam preparation. We believe 11+ preparation should begin during year 4 or 5 and the 11+ is taken at the begining of year 6. Hence, WordBuilder cloze passages are not provided at school years 3 and below. However, parents can create cloze passages for any age group. 9."
},
{
"question": "What are WordBuilder Lists, My Spelling Lists My Word Lists?",
"answer": "WordBuilder Lists are \"ready made\" Lists created by WordBuilder. My spelling lists are created by typing words yourself. As many words may not be in WordBuilder databases, the lists are only used to learn spellings. If every word within the list is contained within the WordBuilder database, the default WordBuilder voice is used, else the words are pronounced using an American accent. Since there is no guarantee all words you type will be in the WordBuilder database, words may be missing in non spelling sections (learn words, test meanings and test definitions). My Word Lists are created by selecting words from the WordBuilder database. This means words are pronounced in a British English accent, and more words will be available in other sections (learn words, test meanings and test definitions). Note: the database is continually updated as word entries are completed. This is a long task, so many words in our database are not primed for testing meanings, definitions, antonyms, or cloze passages. If you have word requests - words to add to our database, or complete on our database, please contact us so we can makes these a priority. 10."
},
{
"question": "How many times should a test be undertaken?",
"answer": "When learning a list you should test meanings/definitions at least 3-5 times. Scores may be low the first couple of attempts. You will often see an improvement in score from as low as 30% to 80% or higher, especially in the 11+ lists. The advantage of WordBuilder is that when one word appears in a list you often learn 4 or 5 words. Other tests can be undertaken1-3 times. 11."
},
{
"question": "When should I start using the Cloze Passage module?",
"answer": "We recommend using the Cloze Passage module in Year 5. However, we have split the Cloze Passage tests across year groups. Start with Year 4 Cloze Tests and progress to higher years. Initially chose to display word lists and progress or even repeat tests displaying clues. 12."
},
{
"question": "How long should I spend on WordBuilder per session?",
"answer": "We recommend you work between 20 and 45 minute sessions depending upon age, attention span and time available in one or two sessions a day. 13."
},
{
"question": "Why are 11+ word lists combined with secondary school lists?",
"answer": "Children learn new words rapidly at a young age. By the end of primary school the rate vocabulary enrichment slows down. Words that are learnt for the 11+ are not too dissimilar to vocabulary used at secondary school. Some people believe the vocabulary of a bright 12-year old is not too far from a child who has just finished secondary school. 14."
},
{
"question": "Which browser should I use?",
"answer": "WordBuilder recommends the use of Mozilla Firefox. The system is optimised for the latest versions of Microsoft Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox. It may also work on Goggle Chrome, Opera, Android and Apple Safari (although this cannot be guaranteed, as the sound manager ma not be compatible with Apple O/S). All browsers do not adhere to the same standards and thus the the look and feel may be different on different browsers. You cannot currently use Opera to create your own Cloze Passages because it handles spaces in a different manner to other standard browsers. Cloze passage creation involves calculation of spaces in order to create the passage accurately. IE 10 users should click F12 and set Document Mode to IE9 standards. Please ensure cookies are enabled and you allow pop-ups. 15."
},
{
"question": "Which screen resolution should I use?",
"answer": "WordBuilder is optimised for a screen resolution of at least 1280 x 800. Please adjust your screen resolution by selecting Control Panel -> Adjust screen resolution (under Appearance and Personalization). Note: all devices cannot support such a resolution, in which case select the highest closest resolution possible. To prevent horizontal scrolling try and pick a minimum resolution of 1024 x 760. 16. Comprehension questions do not move to the next question. This may happen if you are using Internet Explorer 10."

"question": "Would you or anyone else in the department be able to help me?",
"answer": "We will analyze a shelf-stable product sample, classify it (as acid, acidified, water activity controlled or other) according to Federal and State regulations and provide processing recommendations. We use a Nutrition Database to input a product formulation and provide a Nutrition Facts Panel and Ingredient Statement for food products. We are currently only providing the Nutrition Labeling and Education Act 1990 Nutrition Facts Panel format. The information collected on our form is for the purpose of classification and nutritional labeling only. We will maintain your product information on the computer, under password protection, for a short time in case you request changes or modifications. The University makes no warranties or guarantees, either expressed or implied, as to the outcome of any services provided, although all reasonable efforts, consistent with the standards of a research university, will be made to provide the appropriate recommendations and achieve a successful outcome. Once the services are provided, no refunds are available. As a public institution and instrumentality of the State of North Carolina, NC State University is subject to the NC Public Records laws. This means that records provided to the university may be subject to public disclosure, unless an exception applies. Records that would not be subject to public record disclosure include research data, records or information of a proprietary nature, as well as information that may be deemed trade secrets and have been marked “confidential” when the information was disclosed to NC State. For more information regarding public records, please visit the Office of General Counsel webpage on public records, accessible here. Entrepreneur Initiative for Food (ei4f) Policy for releasing product submission information. We will only release product information to the person or entity who initiated contact with our laboratory. If a Process Authority Letter, Process Letter, Testing Letter, Nutritional Facts Panel/Ingredient Statement has been issued, we will only discuss the specifics of the product and test results with the person or entity of whom the letter has been issued. Fill out & Submit the Online Request Form – click on “Online Sample Submission Form”. The form will ask for your basic contact information, formulation for a batch of product, and current product processing information. Do not send any samples until you have been contacted by us. Once you submit the Online Request Form, we will review your Online Request Form & reply with information on next steps including how to send a sample, quantity needed, and pricing information. Each service costs $150. For example, for a product receiving both Product Testing & Processing Recommendations and Nutritional Information, the cost will be $300. You can send us the reformulation via our Online Request Form. For reformulated products, each service costs $75. For example, for a reformulated product receiving both Product Testing & Processing Recommendations and Nutritional Information, the cost will be $150. The “Nutrition Facts” panel for a food label can use data from two sources: nutritional analysis or a nutrient database. Nutritional analysis is when several lots of food are sampled and analyzed in a laboratory. For certain products, this is the only appropriate method. Another way is to calculate the nutritional content using a nutrient database where nutrient analyses on a variety of ingredients is stored in a computer database. Only the second method is available from the Entrepreneurial Program. No, your label may be wrong if the ingredients and amounts submitted in the ingredient report are not correct. If you have not actually weighed the ingredients, there may also be mistakes. Unless otherwise noted, the assumption is used that all the ingredients in the formula are present in the product and that there was no cooking loss, breading loss or added ingredients, such as added frying oil. In some cases an ingredient does not appear in the database, it then is up to you to furnish that information. Database calculations, while useful, are not analyses. We recommend laboratory analysis of your product by one of the many consulting labs which perform nutrient analyses. The database may not have the exact nutritional information for your ingredient, (i.e. one brand of catsup may not have the same nutrients as another brand). Database calculation gives a reasonable approximation of the nutrient value of the submitted formulation, but because there are so many factors to consider, it cannot be assumed to be a substitute for laboratory analysis. The choice to use this information on a label is solely yours. Calculation of nutritional data from a database is usually the easiest and least expensive. The information you provide to the department is entered into the computer to combine these analyses and produce a Nutrition Facts panel for your product. Laboratory analysis of products for nutritional data is more expensive and time consuming. It requires that the product be properly sampled according to FDA protocol and analyzed by chemical methods. In some products such as fried, salted or coated products, the amounts of ingredients are difficult to determine and a laboratory analysis would be necessary. Sometimes, an ingredient may not appear in our database. In this case, you will need to contact the supplier of the ingredient for a “nutrient analysis per 100 grams.” This data will then be entered into the computer. The Nutrition Facts panel from your ingredient will not suffice for this purpose. The Acidified Foods Manufacturing School provides instruction primarily for operating supervisors for acidified foods, the individual who is in the plant or kitchen at the time an acidified preserved food product is processed and packed. The school is particularly intended for operators or operating supervisors involved in production of thermally processed acidified foods. Under the acidified foods regulation (21 CFR 114.10) an operating supervisor is defined as a person who has attended a school approved by the Commissioner for giving instruction in food-handling techniques, food-protection principles, personal hygiene and plant sanitation practices, pH controls and critical factors in acidification, and who has been identified by that school as having satisfactorily completed the prescribed course of instruction. The supervisor must be on duty during processing, packing operations, and container closure of acidified product. Yes, the Acidified Foods Manufacturing School is equivalent to the training received by attending a standard in-person Acidified Foods Only Better Process Control School course. The Acidified Foods Manufacturing School is 100% online. Those who complete the Internet course will receive a Certificate of Course Completion to demonstrate they meet the training requirement of the FDA Acidified regulation. This training sequence is equivalent to the training received by attending a standard in-person Better Process Control School course. Yes, the Acidified Foods Manufacturing School is 100% online. Yes, based on the acidified foods regulation any food company producing acidified food products must comply with the regulations. Even if someone only sells 10 cans of acidified product in a year, they must comply with the regulations. No, your Certificate of Completion will never expire. Your Certificate of Completion for the course is good indefinitely. You cannot share your Moodle ID account information with other people. Each person will have their own Moodle ID. Each participant must pay for and complete the 100% online course prior to receiving their Operating Supervisor Certificate of Completion. No, we do not offer the Acidified Foods Manufacturing School in Spanish. But you can look at GMA’s national Better Process Control School course listing for offerings in Spanish and other languages. It may be. An acidified food (AF) is a low-acid food to which acid(s) or acid food(s) are added and which has a finished equilibrium pH of 4.6 or below and a water activity (aw) greater than 0.85 (see 21 CFR 114.3). If your product is formulated with low-acid food to which acid(s) or acid food(s) are added AND has a finished equilibrium pH of 4.6 or below & a water activity (aw) greater than 0.85 AND is stored, distributed, and sold shelf-stable (unrefrigerated), it is most likely an acidified food. The determination between a product being classified as an ACID PRODUCT or an ACIDIFIED PRODUCT all depends on the product formulation — a product with a higher percentage of low acid ingredients may fall into the acidified classification. To receive product classification, testing, and processing recommendations, please submit to the Food Entrepreneurial Lab by filling out the Online Sample Submission Form. If you want to find out the classification of your product(s), you need to contact a process authority. You can submit your product(s) to our process authority by filling out our Online Request Form. This will help classify your product based on regulations and help you determine the safety parameters for your product(s). If your product is classified as acidified, you will need to take the Acidified Foods Manufacturing School to get your Operating Supervisor Certificate of Completion to legally produce your product(s) OR you will need to work with a co-packer who has already received the Operating Supervisor Certificate of Completion. No, it is a fermented food and therefore is exempt from the acidified food regulations. Food products in North Carolina are mainly regulated by two agencies. Prepared and ready-to-eat foods are regulated by county health departments under statewide rules adopted by the Dairy and Food Protection Branch of the NC Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services. Packaged foods are regulated under the NC Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (NCDA&CS). Meat and meat-containing products are regulated by the Meat and Poultry Inspection Division. Packaged foods other than meats are regulated by the Food and Drug Protection Division. Certain seafood and milk products have separate rules. Most products cannot be manufactured in a home kitchen. However, some food products regulated by the NCDA&CS Food and Drug Protection division can be manufactured from a home kitchen. More information is available at www.nchomeprocessing.com. Food regulatory agencies are established to protect the safety and wholesomeness of foods offered for sale in the marketplace. These agencies are required to make unannounced inspections of the manufacturing facility to ensure the food is produced under Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP). This would obviously conflict with privacy guaranteed for the home. However, some manufacturers have built a separate home processing area to process food which can meet the standards in the GMP. Baked goods are typically low-risk food products and do not typically require Product Testing & Processing Recommendations through our lab but North Carolina Department of Agriculture may require you to submit your product for food safety testing so check with them. – Retailers with annual gross sales of not more than $500,000. For these exemptions, a notice does not need to be filed with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). – Person claiming the exemption employs fewer than an average of 100 full-time equivalent employees and fewer than 100,000 units of that product are sold in the United States in a 12-month period. For these exemptions, a notice must be filed annually with FDA. Although, even if you fall into one of these exemptions, your consumers, retailers, and/or distributors may still want to view the nutritional labeling on your product. No, catered foods are regulated by local County Health Departments under statewide rules adopted by the Food Protection Program of the NC Health and Human Services. An exception to this rule is the preparation of bakery items. Bakery items are regulated by the Food and Drug Protection Division. For further information on catering baked items, visit the NCDA&CS web site on Starting a Home-Based Food Business. Our food scientists would be glad to provide assistance in making this decision, however, this is a business decision you should make in accordance with your business plan. Yes, many manufacturers both large and small, will “copack” food items for others to sell."

"question": "Q8.2) How can I copy a directory to or from an !FTP window?",
"answer": "Q8.3) After uploading a WWW page to an FTP server, I cannot view it using !Fresco. Many different FTP servers present information about files on the site in different formats. Although !FTP is aware of most of these formats we do occasionally encounter new servers whose format is not supported. If you find such a site, please contact ANT Support with all the details used in the Open FTP connection window so we can duplicate the problem and investigate it further. !FTP does not yet support copying of directories although this is planned to be supported in a future release. Until then directories will need to be created and opened manually. Ensure the file has public read access on the FTP server. To do this, use the !FTP Filer menu. If this happens for many files, click Menu on the !FTP icon and select Choices. You'll almost certainly need to set Access on uploads to Public WR/r before clicking on Save."

},
{
"question": "How long can I get benefits?",
"answer": "A. You can receive benefits for as long as you are unable to work. This issue is one of the biggest in workers’ compensation cases. Often insurance companies will argue that you can return to work when you cannot. The insurance company will generally seek to limit how long it is responsible for paying you benefits. A. Your employer is allowed to give you a list of doctors that you must choose from and treat with for the first 90 days. If the employer fails to give you the list or the 90 days have past, you may treat with a doctor of your choice. A. An IME is an “independent medical examination.” The problem is the medical examiner is often not very independent and will be looking for reasons to terminate your benefits. You are required to attend an IME but it is best that you speak with your lawyer about what to expect before hand. Q."
},
{
"question": "Must I allow her into my doctor appointments?",
"answer": "A. Nurse case workers are individuals hired by the insurance company to look for ways to deny or minimize your claim. While the nurse case worker will pretend to be your friend, she is not. You are not required to speak with her. Nor are you required to allow her to be with you at your appointments."
},
{
"question": "Q. I was not at work when I got hurt, can I still get benefits?",
"answer": "A. If you were injured because you were doing work for your employer, you might still be able to get workers’ compensation benefits. The legal phrase is “course or scope of employment.” So, for example, if you were in a car accident because you were on an errand for your employer, you might still be eligible. If you are a mover and are on a job moving furniture, then you should be entitled to benefits. Q. My employer says it is my fault I am injured, so I can’t get my benefits. A. With very few exceptions, fault is not an issue in workers’ compensation cases. The fact that you caused your injury through some kind of mistake doesn’t matter. You are still entitled to benefits. Q. My employer says I had a pre-existing condition, so I can’t get benefits. A. If your pre-existing condition was made worse by your employment, you should be able to get benefits. Q."
},
{
"question": "Can I sue my employer?",
"answer": "A. The workers’ compensation system takes the place of a traditional lawsuit. You cannot sue your employer if you are injured at work. Q."
},
{
"question": "Can I ever sue?",
"answer": "Sometimes there is a third party that can be sued. For example, if you were in a car accident that was caused by someone else, you would seek both workers’ compensation and financial compensation from the person who caused the car accident. Q."
},

"answer": "Although uncolored HDPE is a translucent material when formed, our manufacturing process makes it opaque. All PFC cases have a surface texture to improve scratch resistance. The surface texture also makes it impossible to see through the case."
},
{
"question": "What type of hinge is on the case?",
"answer": "All PFC cases incorporate our patented mechanical pin and socket hinge. Originally developed in 1972, our hinge has undergone constant improvement and has been licensed to over 30 other companies around the world. Both the pins and sockets are formed during the molding operation to ensure maximum strength and longevity."
},
{
"question": "Do you recycle your products?",
"answer": "We have an on-site recycling operation that allows us to grind plastic and incorporate it back into the manufacturing process. Our black cases can be made using 100% recycled plastic, depending on availability. Regrinding does not affect the quality or durability of the cases. Developed in the late 1930s, blow molding is a manufacturing process that is used to form hollow plastic parts. It is most commonly used to make plastic bottles. In principal, the basic blow molding process is similar to glassblowing. Plastic resin (pelletized raw plastic material) is melted and formed into a hollow tube or parison which is then placed into a mold. The parison is then inflated using compressed air to form a finished part. In the early 1960s, PFC founder Peter T. Schurman realized that he could combine two hollow blow molded parts to form the lid and base of a portable container or enclosure, and the “double‐wall blow molded carrying case” was born. Read more about blow molding here. All of our manufacturing takes place in the USA. We have two fully-operational plants, one in Ohio and one in Connecticut. Our design and mold engineering is done at our Connecticut headquarters and we source our materials domestically, we don’t subcontract work to other companies, and we don’t outsource anything to foreign manufacturers."

"question": "Home / FAQ / What types of health insurance coverage are available?",
"answer": "Health insurance rates can be found online when you search by entering your zip code into our free tool below. According to 2010 statistics from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), nearly 70% of all Americans between the ages of 18 and 64 had some sort of health insurance coverage. The vast majority was fortunate enough to have private coverage; those who were not, were covered by public health insurance. We’ll start with the health maintenance organization (HMO) because it is the most popular type of health care coverage today. It must be noted that technically, according to the law, an HMO is really a health care plan rather than insurance. It is designed, at least in theory, to reduce the overall cost of health care by encouraging preventative medicine and proactive approaches. The HMO model has been around since 1910, but didn’t become popular until federal legislation in 1973 all but thrust it on the U.S. economy. Prior to that, most people simply carried major medical insurance and paid for everything else out-of-pocket. Some would argue that forcing the HMO on the American public is one of the big reasons why health care costs have skyrocketed."
},
{
"question": "What is major medical health care coverage?",
"answer": "Of the four types of health insurance discussed in this article, major medical is the only one that can be truly classified as insurance. It works very similar to your auto insurance in that you pay premiums to protect yourself against financial loss due to some possible event in the future. Like auto insurance, you might be one of those people that pays premiums all your life and never uses it. On the other hand, you might be the person who goes through a spate of illnesses or injuries and must utilize it often. These things are expensive enough that HMOs cannot afford to cover them and remain profitable. That is why so many limit the total dollar amount of coverage they will pay for major medical issues. A PPO, or preferred provider organization, is a health plan that marries the plan administrator with a network of doctors and healthcare facilities who agree to work together. Although this type of health care coverage has been around a while, it has really taken off since the turn of the 21st century, as companies are trying to trim their healthcare costs. This type of program tends to be less expensive because health care providers within the network agree to accept lower rates than they get with an HMO. In the PPO model, participants are expected to seek care from network providers whenever possible. When they do so, their insurance coverage works very similar to the HMO in that they make their co-pay at the time of service and the doctor or facility bills the plan for the remainder. If participants must go outside the network for any reason, they may be responsible for a higher co-pay. In some cases, they may also have to pay the entire cost out-of-pocket and then seek reimbursement from the plan."
},
{
"question": "What is a POS plan?",
"answer": "A point of service (POS) plan is another managed type of plan very similar to PPOs and HMOs. It combines some of the characteristics of both plans but is relatively unique in other ways. For example, one of the ways a POS keeps costs down is by limiting the number of choices a participant has. Typically, a POS participant must choose a primary care physician from a network of providers; that physician then becomes the major decision maker in guiding the participants overall health choices. That physician must issue referrals before the participant can see any other doctors or specialists. Even at that, unless the purpose of the referral fits under certain plan guidelines it may not be covered in full. The POS has quite a few other limitations, as well as overall coverage limits, in an effort to keep the cost as low as possible. The U.S. Office of Personnel Management lists several other types of health insurance coverage. Most will fall into one of the four basic categories discussed here. Regardless of the type of coverage you are after, you can search for health insurance rates online by entering your zip code below."

{
"question": "Do you know all those coloring processes you’ve had in your hair?",
"answer": "Well, they leave artificial pigments ‘stuck’ to hair and with each bleaching, it gets less and less shining and lifeless. DekapColor was the first product in Brazil to bring you the concept of “Coloring Cleaning”. That is, it does not bleach your hair, but removes only the artificial pigments left by the applied dyes. So, you recover your hair’s health and leave it ready for your next coloring process."
},
{
"question": "If you are used to coloring and/or bleaching your hair, you must have notice that feeling of elasticity and lack of hair shine, right?",
"answer": "Knowing this problem, we have developed a product to help you change your look without mistreating your hair. Besides bringing back that shine you already longed for. And that’s how DekapColor was produced, opening a new category of hair care: the “Coloring Cleaning”. Dekap cleans and removes all dye particles from hair without removing its natural pigmentation."
},
{
"question": "06 DOES IT MAKE HAIR LIGHTER?",
"answer": "DekapColor is not a bleach, so it does not lighten your hair. It only removes the artificial coloring left by dyes applied before on hair. If your hair is naturally light or if you have already done some bleaching and then applied a dark color, Dekap will remove the artificial coloring and the lighter depth will appear (including streaking previously made)."
},
{
"question": "07 DOES IT WORK IN DARK HAIR?",
"answer": "If your hair is dark and you apply a color that is also dark, it may be more difficult to notice the effect. This is because hair depth will remain dark even after coloring is removed."
},
{
"question": "HOW DOES AN APPLICATION WORK?",
"answer": "BEFORE ANYTHING! Perform the patch test at least 24 hours before the application to check for allergy to the product. Remember to always use the set in equal parts (1:1). • Step 01: Join a portion of DekapColor # 1 bottle with the same amount as # 2 bottle in a plastic container. Mix the two parts using a spatula or plastic brush until they are completely homogeneous. • Step 2: Apply the product to dry hair over all the colored part you want to remove, always leaving a minimum distance of 1 cm from hair root. Then, let the product process for 30 minutes. • Step 03:: After 30 minutes, wash your hair preferably with neutral shampoo, rinse thoroughly, and then use a small amount of hair conditioner. Do not use anti-residue shampoo as they may tangle your hair. • Step 04:: Remove water excess, leaving your hair almost dry. If necessary, reapply the product following the same procedure. Do this only if your hair is healthy, otherwise you may dry it out or cause elasticity to hair because of moisture. If your hair is very dry, apply only once. Never have more than two applications on the same day and do not exceed 60 minutes in a row with product in hair. IMPORTANT! Products do not work separately or in different proportions than recommended. Do not add another product to the mix and prepare it only at the time of application. After mixing the product, it acts for 30 minutes, so do not store or re-use leftovers."
},
{
"question": "09 WHY CAN I APPLY DEKAPCOLOR ONLY AT MOST 2 TIMES ON THE SAME DAY?",
"answer": "At the first application, your hair will be moist for 30 minutes and then another 30 minutes for the second. With the moist, your hair is very sensitized, so we recommend the application of a maximum of 2 times on the same day. If you do not achieve the desired effect, wait at least 7 days for the next application, and hydrate your hair well during this time to keep it healthy! If you are still not 100% satisfied or cannot wait to gradually remove the coloring, you can apply the bleaching powder after using Dekap – as long as strand test is done to make sure hair’s resistance. IMPORTANT! Always follow the bleaching powder manufacturer’s instructions for use and never mix it with DekapColor in the same application."
},
{
"question": "10 IS IT TRUE DEKAP IS AMMONIA FREE AND HAS NO BLEACHING AGENTS?",
"answer": "Yes, it’s true! DekapColor has the active ingredient HMSA (Hydroxymethanesulfonic Acid), a state-of-the-art organic compound that only acts on artificial dye molecules. That is, it removes only the pigments from the oxidative dyes applied to hair, without removing its natural color."
},
{
"question": "11 HOW COLORING REMOVAL WORKS?",
"answer": "The HMSA reduces the artificial dye molecules, causing them to detach from your hair and with that, only the “coloring layer” is removed. In this way, it does not damage hair structure and promotes the actual removing process. It removes coloring and your hair comes alive again!"
},
{
"question": "12 WILL MY HAIR HAVE ITS NATURAL COLOR BACK AFTER THE APPLICATION?",
"answer": "It is not possible to have your hair natural color back, because probably, in the application of your last coloring, you must have applied hydrogen peroxide to hair. After this type of process, natural pigments are removed during lightening, leaving your hair with a “faded” color in relation to the natural color. CONCLUSION: After using Dekap, your hair will have the color in which your “depth color” is."
},
{
"question": "13 AFTER WHAT CHEMICAL PRODUCTS CAN I USE DEKAPCOLOR?",
"answer": "IMPORTANT! If your hair has been processed with straightening processes containing Henê, Brazilian blowout, or metal salts and Hena, DekapColor will have no effect. But do not worry, there is no risk of damaging your hair."
},
{
"question": "14 CAN I BLEACH MY HAIR AFTER APPLYING DEKAP?",
"answer": "Yes, you can! However, we recommend to always perform a strand test before applying on all hair. This way, you can evaluate hair strength and ensure its health."
},
{
"question": "15 CAN I MIX DEKAPCOLOR WITH SOME PRODUCT TO ACCELERATE THE PROCESSING?",
"answer": "Never mix DekapColor with other products! It can lose its effect and you can even cause damage to your hair by improper mixing of chemical components."
},
{
"question": "So, do not even risk doing this, ok?",
"answer": "You can use Dekap before bleaching as it will remove the old coloring processes and this way, you can keep the bleaching product for less time in your hair. That is, you accelerate the bleaching process and still preserve your hair’s health. IMPORTANT! Never mix Dekap with decolorizing powder in the same application!"
},
{
"question": "16 BEFORE A FULL BLEACHING, CAN I USE DEKAP JUST TO CLEAN AND GIVE SHINE TO MY HAIR?",
"answer": "Some professionals use DekapColor to clean the previous coloring processes, removing the oxidative dyes that are attached to hair. In this way, they can reduce time of bleach application after using Dekap, reducing damages during hair full bleaching process."
},
{
"question": "17 CAN I HAVE MY HAIR COLORED ON THE SAME DAY I HAVE APPLIED DEKAP?",
"answer": "Yes, you can have your hair colored, we even recommend you do it on the same day. This is because it is likely that your hair will be slightly faded because of the hydrogen peroxide (present in the coloring) applied during your lightening or streaking processes. This way, it may have a color depth different from the original color."
},
{
"question": "20 CAN I HAVE MY HAIR STRAIGHTENED AFTER APPLICATION?",
"answer": "You must wait at least a week after applying DekapColor to straighten your hair. Besides, we recommend that you hydrate your hair during this time to protect your hair’s health."
},
{
"question": "21 DOES IT REMOVE COLORING WITH ONLY ONE APPLICATION?",
"answer": "It will depend a lot on the degree of saturation of your hair (amount of artificial dyes present in hair). The more saturated it is, the more times you will need to apply DekapColor to remove all color."
},
{
"question": "22 CAN DEKAPCOLOR DAMAGE MY HAIR?",
"answer": "DekapColor does not affect your hair or even your scalp. But it is very important that you take extra care, keeping your hair always well hydrated every time you submit them to some chemical process. If you are coloring on the same day as applying Dekap, it is very important to have your hair hydrated to make your hair even more beautiful and full of life! IMPORTANT! For straightening processes, take extra care because your hair fibers become very sensitive during the process."
},
{
"question": "23 WHAT CAUTION DO I HAVE TO TAKE AFTER USING DEKAPCOLOR?",
"answer": "Always hydrate your hair to help preventing damages and to let coloring result even better. So, you make sure your hair is soft, full of shine and you’ll look even more beautiful!"
},
{
"question": "24 WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF USING DEKAP IN LIGHTER COLORING APPLICATIONS?",
"answer": "In blond hair, Dekap can remove saturated coloring, allowing to change nuances from an ash blonde to a golden blonde, for example. It removes saturation of blonde hair, leaving it shining and intensity of the new color even stronger. IMPORTANT! Remember that DekapColor does not make your hair return to its natural color. Once your hair is colored, its natural pigmentation has already been altered."
},
{
"question": "25 CAN I CHANGE NUANCES WITHOUT CHANGING THE COLOR TONE?",
"answer": "You can use DekapColor to clean your hair form saturated color, to change the nuance without changing the color shade. Or even to keep the same nuance, so that the new coloring becomes more intense and still shiny – always depending on the color in which your hair is. This process can be done in hair with any coloring shade. But if your hair has brown or blond shades, the result is usually even better. 26 I HAVE BEEN COLORING MY HAIR IN BLACK FOR A LONG TIME."
},
{
"question": "EVEN SO, CAN I REMOVE ALL COLORING WITH DEKAP?",
"answer": "The result will depend on the degree of saturation of your hair (amount of artificial dyes deposited on hair) and it may be necessary to apply it more times for the total removal of the coloring. The more saturated, the greater the number of applications required. The process of dye removal must be gradual, especially in dark hair with black coloring and reddish shades. Remember that you can apply DekapColor a maximum of 2 times on the same day and give a gap of at least 7 days for the next application."
},
{
"question": "27 AND IF I HAVE MY HAIR COLORED DARK RED?",
"answer": "As the red color is very intense and already has a high concentration of dyes, the result with Dekap will be gradual, that is, the more you apply the product, the better the result. Always remember to follow the application guidelines!"
},
{
"question": "28 DOES DEKAPCOLOR REMOVE HENÊ FROM HAIR?",
"answer": "Dekap does not offer results on hair processed with products based on progressive coloring with metal bases, straighteners with dyes in the Henê and Henna in their formulation. This is because it removes pigments only from oxidative coloring."
},
{
"question": "29 IS IT TRUE DEKAPCOLOR DOES NOT REMOVE BRAZILIAN BLOWOUT AND OTHER CHEMICAL PROCESSES?",
"answer": "It is true!! DekapColor purpose is to remove only the artificial dyes from coloring processes (oxidative) you have applied to your hair. Therefore, if there are more chemical processes in hair (Brazilian blowout, bleaching etc. ), Dekap’s action will not interfere in any of them."
},
{
"question": "30 CAN I APPLY DEKAP ON HAIR ENDS ONLY FOR HAIR STREAKING?",
"answer": "Yes, you can! As long as your hair has artificial oxidative coloring, for if it is a virgin hair, the product will have no effect. It is important to remember that DekapColor will not act as a bleaching powder, it will only remove the artificial coloring, fading the color that is in your hair. It is a wonderful tip for you to save hair ends!"
},
{
"question": "31 WHERE CAN I BUY DEKAPCOLOR FOR MY HAIR SALON?",
"answer": "You can contact the representative nearest you through the contacts available on the “Contact Us” page of our site. You can also contact us through our SAC (11) 4617-9850 or by email [email protected]."
},
{
"question": "32 DOES DEKAP HELP TO RECOVER HAIR SHINE OF THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN APPLYING COLORING FOR MANY YEARS?",
"answer": "The excess of dyes applied many years ago, can make hair more opaque and dull. Dekap removes the excess of these dyes and helps your new coloring to get much shinier and more intense!"
},
{
"question": "34 DEKAPCOLOR WORKS IN NON-OXIDIZED COLORING (AMMONIA-FREE)?",
"answer": "No, because the active ingredient only acts on oxidative pigments, that is, they need oxidation to be shown in hair. DekapColor is a product of professional use and requires special care for its application. Always read carefully the Application Guide that comes with the product, and you have any questions, please contact us: SAC (11) 4617-9850 (option 5) or through the email [email protected]."

},
{
"question": "On what altitude is Quito situated and could that lead to problems?",
"answer": "Quito is situated at an altitude of 2.850 m. The highest mountains in Ecuador are more than 6,000 m high.

Everyone - not only people with respiratory diseases - should go for a checkup before their trip! City buses and taxis are rather cheap in Quito. The destinations of the different buses are listed on their front windows. The buses stop at almost every corner if hand signaled, so that you can easily get on and off. A trip costs between 10 and 25 Centavos, no matter the distance within the city. There are also more than enough taxis in the cities. Drivers stop at hand signal and during the day the taximeter is ticking. At night you should negotiate the price in advance."

{
"question": "Can I drive by myself in Ecuador?",
"answer": "To drive in Ecuador you need an „International Driver’s License“, which needs to be presented when renting a car. Crime is also a problem in this South American country, but if you follow some safety advice you should be as safe as in every big European city. (Nevertheless) in the bigger cities, at touristic attractions and in public transport theft and robberies are not uncommon. Therefore you should always have an eye on your bags and valuables. Do not flash your jewelry, cameras and watches. Once it’s dark you should always use a taxi, even for short distances. The usual vaccinations for Tetanus, Diphtheria and Hepatitis A are recommendable. In case of longer stays vaccinations against Hepatitis B, Rabies, Typhus, Malaria and Yellow Fever should not be forgotten. Prior to your trip you should in any case see your doctor or a tropical disease specialist just to avoid possible incompatibilities."

Other alternatives to HSLDA include hiring your own lawyer (try to find one that is familiar with the education laws of your state), Rutherford Institute, and the Southeast Law Institute.

"question": "Is there a guarantee on the Dental Implants?",
"answer": "Many practices offer some warranty as a courtesy, but we put in in writing. We stand by our G4 Implant Solution with a Lifetime warranty on our Dental Implants. Most practices will charge extra for these services, even though the cause of this failure is sometimes due to their own error. In the rare case of implant failure, not only we remove the implant and replace it at no charge, but any corrective procedures required will also be performed at no cost. Visual assessment of the patient; including examining the patient for signs of inflammation, bleeding, changes in probing depths, mobility, or exudate around the implant(s), and debridement of your dental prosthesis. In addition, we will radio-graphically examine your Implant(s) to determine whether changes have occurred in bone levels. We will also conduct a careful review of your current medications, as well as a review of your health status. Due to the nature of the tissue attachment surrounding the implant(s), Dental Implants may be more susceptible to inflammation and bone loss when plaque accumulates. Proper maintenance of the tissues will ensure longevity of the Implant(s). Your home-care routine can significantly influence Implant success. After your re-care appointment, a patient-specific home-care routine is developed for you. Your G4 Ultra®/Titanium bridge(s) are warrantied for a period of 2 years. Within the warranty period we will repair or replace bridges that fail due to workmanship at no charge. The cost to replace your G4 Ultra®/Titanium bridge(s) after 2 years is $2,500/ea. This is a non-surgical one-day process. If a dental implant fails to integrate we will replace it at no cost, one time only. An annual implant examination including x-rays and regular cleanings is an absolute requirement for any warranty to apply. The Lifetime Warranty Dental Implant Warranty does not apply to continue to smoke or persons who have, or who develop, an uncontrolled systemic health problem, such as, but not limited to; diabetes, autoimmune disorders, severe osteoporosis, or any condition requiring long steroid use. If smoking or a medical condition is suspected as the cause of implant failure or other complication that requires treatment, an examination and blood tests will be required for warranties to apply."

https://drdons.net/faqwd/my-home-is-being-baited-for-subterranean-termites-how-will-i-know-when-theyre-all-dead | [
{
"question": "How will I know when they’re all dead?",
"answer": "The technician will assess the activity in the baits over the course of the program and, usually, make a judgement call as to when success has been achieved (the subterranean termites killed). A good tech will almost never tell you that the termites are all gone but will talk about colony elimination or control or the length of time since any of the bait has been eaten. You’ll still need ongoing inspections as baiting provides no residual control. Often colony decline can be observed to be happening when the proportion of soldiers increases or when the feeding workers develop white abdomens (uric acid crystals). Baiting is used for subterranean termites (not drywoods and rarely for dampwoods). Baits use slow-acting toxins in low doses. The big problem is that there may be more than one colony active in the area Some colonies have fuzzy boundaries so that outside termites may be recruited to replace those affected. A great example of this is from Devon, England where introduced termites turned up in two houses. More than a decade of baiting later, there were still some termites active.

"question": "What is the procedure for issuing the R-1 invoice for companies?",
"answer": "R-1 invoices for companies for paying toll in cash are issued only at toll booths. Since the R-1 invoice for cash payments cannot be issued afterwards, please ask the cashier upfront to provide an R-1 invoice for companies when paying. The specified regulation does not refer to the Toll Plaza Rupa and Toll Plaza Demerje, for which R-1 invoices are not issued at the toll plaza, therefore it is necessary to subsequently send the original cash register receipts received for toll payment, together with the written Request for issuing an R-1 invoice, via mail to the following address: Hrvatske autoceste održavanje i naplata cestarine d.o.o. Sektor za naplatu cestarine, Odjel za prihod, prodaju i logistiku, Jadranska av. 6, 10250 Lučko. If you are paying the toll with an INA Card, the R-1 invoice for executed transactions in the previous month is issued until the 15th day of the current month at the latest, and it is not necessary to send a special written Request for R-1 invoice. In order to receive an R-1 invoice for the toll paid by bank/credit card, it is necessary to file a Request for R-1 invoice per bank cards, and the form can be found on the WEB site of the company (www//arz.hr). The request is valid for the entire calendar year, and if there is no change in the data listed in the request, it is not necessary to send it again during the year or to deliver slips on paid toll from the toll booths. The R-1 invoice for an ETC package purchased at the toll plazas is delivered subsequently, if you have filled out all the necessary data in the Application form provided in the ETC package upon the purchase of the ETC device."

"question": "What is a contractual penalty and when is it charged?",
"answer": "arrives to the exit toll gate without a record of entry on the transit medium. The ETC device, SMART card and magnetic ticket are the transit media used for toll collection. Pursuant to Article 140 paragraph 3 of the Road Traffic Safety Act (Official Gazette of the Republic of Croatia No. 67/2008), U-turns are prohibited on the motorway. If a vehicle exits the motorway at the same toll plaza in which they had entered, regardless of the time of turning and the direction of using the motorway, it pays the longest distance for the corresponding vehicle category from the exit point for the motorway direction used. For additional information please contact the ARZ Info Centre on our toll-free number 0800 0111."

"question": "Have you ever wondered what’s causing those black streaks on your roof … and how to get rid of them?",
"answer": "Those ugly stains are caused by algae cells, officially known as Gloeocapsa Magma — and they can destroy your roof- unless you take protective action! Gloeocapsa Magma cells feed on the limestone used to manufacture asphalt shingles. When roof stains grow and spread, this is an indication that Gloeocapsa Magma cells are multiplying on your roof, feasting on the core limestone ingredients and destroying the integrity of your roof’s shingles. Left unattended, Gloeocapsa Magma cells can damage your roof to the point that you will need an expensive roof replacement."
},
{
"question": "3What Can Be Done to Prevent or Stop the Damage?",
"answer": "Most homeowners have no idea that the damage being done by Gloeocapsa Magma cells can be stopped with a professional safe non pressure chemical only roof cleaning by PAsoftwash. Imagine spending several thousand dollars to replace your roof with brand new shingles because you thought that was the only way to restore your home’s appearance — only to discover afterwards that you could have restored your roof’s condition and appearance at a fraction of the cost with a professional roof cleaning!"
},
{
"question": "That just makes your pocketbook hurt, doesn’t it?",
"answer": "The good news is, you can avoid the exorbitant and premature replacement costs that will result if you ignore your Gloeocapsa Magma roof infestation problem. Call PAsoftwash to request your free, no-obligation roof cleaning demonstration today. We will evaluate your roof’s condition, and tell you honestly if roof cleaning is the right choice for your roof. Our environmentally-safe roof cleaning chemicals and low pressure cleaning process will completely eliminate those unsightly stains and remove all traces of algae and moss growth that are damaging your roof."
},
{
"question": "5How Long Does Roof Cleaning Take?",
"answer": "In just one day, you can have a roof that looks brand new again, and a home that you can be proud to call your own. If you are preparing to sell your home, an inexpensive roof cleaning can enhance your home’s curb appeal, add thousands of dollars to the resale value of your home, and help it sell faster! Some of the world’s top asphalt shingle manufacturers — Owens Corning and GAF — as well as the Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association recommend a low pressure chemical application using specific, approved detergents to restore shingle surfaces that are currently infested with roof algae. Many homeowners are surprised to learn that their shingles require cleaning maintenance."
},
{
"question": "When was the last time your home’s roof was professionally cleaned?",
"answer": "At PAsoftwash, we only use the surfactants, systems, and methods recommended by these world-class manufacturers, to guarantee you a safe and damage-free roof restoration investment. We treat more than the symptoms of mold, mildew, and algae; we also treat the root causes of the Gloeocapsa Magma problem. Your roof is simply too important and too expensive to risk improper maintenance. We are so confident in our professional soft wash system that we guarantee results or the service is free! Some roof cleaning contractors actually do more harm than good to your home with high-pressure washers that can permanently damage your roof and lead to even more costly repair and maintenance costs. These roof cleaning contractors do nothing to address the underlying infestation of Gloeocapsa Magma cells that have taken root on your shingle surfaces. Within a short period of time, the problem may re-emerge, and within months, you’ll be back to square one, your investment completely lost. At PAsoftwash, we don’t just treat the symptoms of mold, mildew, and algae — we address the root causes. Our safe and effective roof cleaning service will make your existing roof look like new again by completely eradicating the algae strain that feeds on your shingles, not to mention the general dirt, grime, grease and pollution that accumulates on the surface of your building’s roof. • Oil & grease & more!"

"question": "Credits : Who wrote this FAQ, then?",
"answer": "This FAQ aims to explain how, where, when and why you should post to uk.business.agriculture; how to fit in and contribute to discussion, where to post and under which threads, when you should join in, and why we'd like to see your opinions. In brief, a FAQ is a body of frequently asked questions with answers. This 'newsgroup' FAQ does not attempt to answer all questions but those answers most likely to be needed by a newcomer to the group. It may also be a reminder to those who post regularly... It tells you more at the Uk Usenet homepages ( http://www.usenet.org.uk/ ) - go and look there. The thing that gets at most people when they first look at the Usenet newsgroups is that people appear to be talking a different language. Now, while this may be true if you're looking at a de. * newsgroup (from Germany), it's normally not. All that's happening is that people are using abbreviations. Most commonly used abbreviations can be found at http://www.usenet.org.uk/usenet-information.html - a page from the official UK Usenet web site. Of course, this is far (far, far, far) from a comprehensive list, and there are many abbreviations which are used on uk.b.a that you'll never find archived anywhere. The best thing to do is get a general idea that G means 'grin', ROTFL means 'roll on the floor laughing', and so on, and try and work them out for yourself. Again, go to the UK Usenet pages at http://www.usenet.org.uk/ you may also like to subscribe to the group news.announce.newusers which carries a lot of very useful information. And you should, of course, read and digest this FAQ. This newsgroup is for the discussion of and exchange of information within the agricultural industry in the U.K. Personal advertisements for related items, services and jobs are welcome but should be brief. Within the context of \"exchanging information\", commercial suppliers of relevant goods and services, agricultural organisations, advisory services, etc. may post brief messages which contain information they might reasonably feel was of interest to readers. Commercial suppliers are required to restrict their \"advertising\" to web sites, the location of which may be posted in short messages to the newsgroup. Commercial suppliers are requested to limit their postings to one message at a time or to include the word \"Trade\" in their headers. All other advertising is banned. Encoded binaries (e.g. pictures, compressed files, etc. ), are forbidden, except for cryptographic signatures (e.g. PGP) which should be kept as short as possible. Posts must be in plain text, HTML is forbidden."
},
{
"question": "Why shouldn't I come round to your house and burn it down?",
"answer": "As everyone knows, if society is to function, there must be certain rules that everybody abides to. uk.b.a is such a community - it's made of individuals, and unless you're taking part in a responsible and grown-up manner, those individuals won't want to know you. There would then be no point in reading or posting to uk.b.a. More to the point, if people consistently post against the charter, their Internet service provider (ISP) receives a complaints email that their behaviour is antisocial (since that's what it is), and you might have your newsfeed removed. So be warned. Yes. Horrendously. Discussions rarely stay with the subject line for long, and, as you'd expect with a group of friends talking in a pub, things often descend into friendly banter between topics. Don't worry if it seems confusing, you'll get the hang of it. The charter says \"This newsgroup is for the discussion of and exchange of information within the agricultural industry in the U.K\" however agriculture is a global thing so contributions are welcome from people interested in UK agriculture from anywhere in the world."
},
{
"question": "a) What's the best way to start off then?",
"answer": "The best way of all, however, is to just read, and not post to, the group for a couple of weeks (known as 'lurking')."
},
{
"question": "b) Can I just join in *anywhere* ?",
"answer": "Yes. If anything was meant to be completely private, it would be sent over email. Feel free to add to any thread, or start a new one if necessary. I recall Jim drawing attention to a dispersal sale in his area some months back. That sort of thing is welcome as well. Any markets wants to put something drawing attention to special sales, etc. go ahead. Anything which is likely to be of interest to the group is OK. Its the unsolicited irrelevant stuff which usually has \"$\" signs in it somewhere anyway which annoys us all. To recap, \"this newsgroup is for the use of all who have an interest in the uk agricultural industry\". If you fall into that category, you are free to put on any message you like so please do so.\" Crossposting is posting a message to more than one group at a time. Before posting a message, look at the newsgroups box on your message. If it contains more than one newsgroup name you are crossposting (also referred to as xposting). Apply common sense when crossposting! Crossposting to other agriculture groups can widen the discussion, but crossposting to groups like alt.fan.oj-simpson.hang-him-by-his-b*lls serves no purpose! When replying to someone's message, they won't want to have to read through their entire message just to find your comments. So delete the parts of their message which are irrelevant, and it'll be easier to read for everyone. Also, it helps if you write your replies directly under the part of the posting you're replying to, not simply at the top. Many people recommend Agent (from http://www.forteinc.com) as an excellent newsreader, for both beginners and experts alike. On the other hand a lot of people use Microsoft Outlook Express, which is provided free with Internet Explorer! Once you've got on your feet you'll be able to experiment more. Please take the time to use your ISP's support system and the other recommended help websites listed on this site to aid in setting up your newsreader software. Make sure it's posting in plain text, not HTML (the standard used for internet browsing). Nobody appreciates HTML posts, as they are huge and cannot be seen by a large amount of people. Many people who post to newsgroups get tired of receiving huge amounts of junk email because of releasing their email addresses onto the internet. Some companies (boo, hiss) have automated retrievers which scan newsgroups for addresses and add them to their lists. Probably not. Remember, who you're communicating with may not be how you imagine them. He may well be Quark , a tough, rough, mean Ferengi - or he may in fact be little Amy Cherub, an 11-year-old girl from Colchester. You can never know. It's safer to not give out huge amounts of information about yourself over the internet. Phone numbers are risky; addresses (as in real addresses) a definite no-no. Be wary about what you reveal. \"Look under 'help' in your newsreader. Basically it allows you to read the newsgroup and never have to see messages from or about whatever you put in it. should find this facility (help is a good place to start). might remove some odd people) etc. Once you have done this you will never see these posts again. \" granted, doesn't call them killfiles. look at that section in MSOE Help it tells you how to set them up\". Indeed, it's not unusual. Any subject line with a 'Re:' at the beginning is a reply to something else - and quite often this is 95% of the group. But it doesn't matter, really, since you can join in at any point as long as you've been watching the thread for a couple of days first. Hence the recommendation to lurk. Or, as recommended above, just start a new thread - ask a question, or whatever - and you'll soon be involved in discussion. It might not be of course - there might not be anyone who knows about sheep there, for example. Don't assume everyone's ignoring you - just ask the question a bit differently ('wormer' instead of 'sheep wormer') and after people have replied try and narrow down the responses a bit. Then oppose it. The whole idea is to discuss issues - it'd be a boring world if everyone agreed on everything! Not if you actually present an argument. Just saying 'shut up' hardly inspires confidence in your view, and you're likely to be ignored. Do remember, however, that this is a public forum, and anyone has the right to reply to and oppose your reasoning. So don't be worried if everyone seems to disagree with you - just think of it as a whole group to convince through reasoned argument. Just don't say that everyone else smells."
},
{
"question": "So what other advice would you give?",
"answer": "Think about what you post. The people on the group don't know you, and they'll form their impressions of you from what you post. If you post arrogantly, you'll be thought of as an arrogant person, even if you're not. And don't post anti-socially. Be friendly and people will be friendly back. Accept that others have different opinions. Yes. You have to wonder where they get the time. As is found in any walk of life, some people participate more in conversation than others. Some speak in more elaborate ways, some feel the need to contribute to everything, a lot prefer to simply read what's going on and post very occasionally. Everyone who posts to the group on-charter has an equally valid voice, and nobody should feel intimidated because they're opposed by one of those who posts more - the self-appointed 'regulars'. The proponent the group was Alistair Wilson. Our eternal thanks to him! After the initial draft this FAQ was posted to uk.b.a for comments. for all their comments and constructive advice. Then email [email protected] , who holds the FAQ, and tell them. Note this is only for spelling mistakes, or the like, and not its that you disagree with. Any such bits must be debated on uk.b.a before they are changed. This FAQ will be constantly revised. The only sections which may not be deleted, only added to, are the Credits - to ensure all those who put hard work in are recognised. You should have fun posting to uk.b.a. That is, after all, the whole point of the exercise. Have a nice time, it's looking bright out. contact the poster of this FAQ before doing so."

{
"question": "What is the mission of Rescues 2the Rescue?",
"answer": "Rescuing dogs who will be our invaluable partners in saving wildlife, protecting wild places, and helping humans."
},
{
"question": "What is the long-term goal of Rescues 2the Rescue?",
"answer": "Rescues 2the Rescue aims to create a vibrant network of shelters and trainers to maximize adoption rates for high energy, intense, obsessive, and driven dogs. These dogs can be very hard to place into traditional pet homes but are likely to thrive when they have a detection career to channel their abundant energy. Using the wildlife and domestic dog advocacy expertise of IFAW and W4DC, R2R was started with an eye toward selecting conservation detection dog candidates but our goal is to expand into other detection disciplines in order to help the most dogs possible."
},
{
"question": "Is Rescues 2the Rescue an animal shelter?",
"answer": "No. R2R is not a shelter, it is a program created by Working Dogs for Conservation and the International Fund for Animal Welfare. The program is intended to connect shelters with trainers and handlers who are equipped to adopt, train, and care for detection dogs. If you are a shelter or trainer, join Rescues 2the Rescue so you can post and search for dogs. If you are a volunteer at a shelter, bring Rescues 2the Rescue to the attention of the adoption coordinator and/or the shelter’s canine behavior team. If you are a trainer interested in becoming a regional partner for Rescues 2the Rescue, please contact [email protected]. If you are a pilot or have a car and are willing to transport candidate dogs from shelters to trainers, please contact [email protected]. If you support our mission, please donate here. Your donation is tax deductible and supports the upkeep of the website, program coordinators, and will allow us to extend our reach to more dogs and more detection disciplines. You only need to be a member if you are an organization that has dogs or are a trainer looking for dogs. Members have access to more extensive details about posted dogs and other members’ contact information. To keep updated with Rescues 2the Rescue news, you don’t need to be a member, just bookmark our website and follow us on Facebook."
},
{
"question": "Is there a fee to join Rescues 2the Rescue?",
"answer": "No. Membership is free but donations are greatly appreciated. Membership reassures users that those who are posting or seeking dogs have taken the time to join our community and share information about themselves and their organizations with other participants."
},
{
"question": "Is there a fee for adopting a dog through Rescues 2 the Rescue?",
"answer": "Regular adoption and transport fees from the shelter who posted the dog will most likely apply. R2R does not charge any additional fees."
},
{
"question": "What qualities and behaviors make a dog well suited for Rescues 2the Rescue?",
"answer": "Detection dogs are intense and obsessive over a reward – usually a toy. This obsession can be used to train them to find something by scent in order to receive that valued reward. Ideal detection dogs not only love their toy but also love to search, are a balance of independent and compliant, and have a strong work ethic. Toy obsession is the easiest aspect to evaluate and other qualities are demonstrated later during training. The R2R Evaluation was designed to take a snapshot of many of these qualities and assess the degree of toy obsession. Since so much work goes into training, most candidates should not be more than two-years old so that they can enjoy a long career. Additionally, dogs must be healthy and agile. You can watch our video to learn more about the evaluation process."
},
{
"question": "How do I post a dog I think is a good candidate for a career in detection?",
"answer": "Become a Rescues 2the Rescue member. Complete the R2R evaluation either digitally or on paper. If you complete the evaluation digitally, the form will automatically post any strong candidates to your account. If you print and manually fill out the R2R Evaluation Form & Scoresheet, you will then need to log in to enter the information and post the dog. You will also need a YouTube account to post your video of the evaluation. Make sure to record the evaluation in its entirety – seeing the dog’s behavior is more important than creative filmmaking, keep the shots simple. The system only allows one YouTube video per dog, so either film the entire evaluation in one take or you will need to edit the shorter clips together before posting it to YouTube."
},
{
"question": "Can I post a dog without doing the Rescues 2the Rescue Evaluation?",
"answer": "No. The evaluation allows people searching for dogs to compare “apples to apples”. R2R respects the demands on your time and has created an evaluation which should take less than 10 minutes once you are familiar with the process."
},
{
"question": "Can I post dogs of all ages, sizes, and breeds?",
"answer": "Yes. However, most trainers will seek dogs that are under two-years old. Also, given current breed restrictions in some municipalities and on airlines, some people may not be in a position to accept all breeds. I want to make sure my candidate dog will have a good life."
},
{
"question": "What her life will be like?",
"answer": "Reading member profiles will give you some starting information. It’s important to have a discussion (or several!) with the prospective trainer to understand more. R2R’s trainer members expect to have detailed discussions about all aspects of their work. Feel free to ask for references."
},
{
"question": "Will all dogs placed through this program be successful in training?",
"answer": "No. It is impossible to design a test that will identify only dogs who will make it all the way through training. Some dogs will decide they don’t want the job early in training (“this training is getting a bit repetitive, I think I’d rather…SQUIRREL!”). Others might learn the skills but choose not to take the job later in training (“this was great yesterday in the forest, but today at the park…FRISBEE!”). You should expect about HALF of the dogs who try out for a detection job will ultimately love the work and want the job."
},
{
"question": "What happens to a dog who doesn’t pass training?",
"answer": "This is a discussion between the shelter and the trainer. Perhaps the shelter would like the dog returned to their facility or perhaps the trainer has connections and would be able to find a suitable home for the dog. This is a part of the arrangement that must be agreed upon between parties before the dog leaves the shelter."
},
{
"question": "How are conservation detection dogs similar to – and different from – other detection dogs?",
"answer": "Like many detection dogs, conservation detection dogs (CDD) often are rewarded with a favorite toy when they find their target. They should also have a keen interest to search, forego distraction, and communicate readily with their handler. The initial selection and scent training of CDDs is very similar to other detection dogs. But CDDs tend to work in wild places, so to be safer around wildlife, they ought to have less “prey drive” than other detection dogs. CDDs will likely work more hours in a day and their targets will range from nonexistent to exceedingly abundant. Some dogs who may not work well in one discipline could work very well in another. For example, a narcotics or explosives detection dog needs to be comfortable on the slick floors of airports, schools, and commercial buildings. If a dog isn’t comfortable in those places, he may still make a great CDD working outside. I train/handle other types of detection dogs (not conservation detection)."
},
{
"question": "Can I use Rescues 2the Rescue to find candidate dogs for my line of work?",
"answer": "Yes! Conservation detection dogs share many qualities with other types of detection dogs. We welcome trainers and handlers of all detection disciplines to use the R2R site. I am a trainer who works with food rewards and your evaluation assesses dogs based on toy rewards."
},
{
"question": "How can I use Rescues 2the Rescue to find dogs who might work for me?",
"answer": "One of the metrics shelters report is food interest, so you scan the results for dogs with strong interest in food. Dogs showing a keen interest in the toy in the R2R Evaluation often show focus and intensity that is likely to transfer to food rewards as well. I am a vendor who trains dogs and sells them."
},
{
"question": "Can I search for dogs on your site?",
"answer": "Rescues 2the Rescue applauds your interest in sourcing rescued dogs for your business and welcomes you to become a member. Fill out the application to join R2R and a program coordinator will reply to you shortly. There is no fee to be a member. As shelters intend to connect dogs with their forever homes, as opposed to intermediaries, you will need to be sure to explicitly discuss with the shelter how your business places dogs and how you accommodate dogs who are waiting for placement. It’s the prerogative of each shelter to decide whether or not to send a dog to any individual trainer. Membership in R2R does not guarantee access to dogs posted on the site. I have read the FAQ and still have a question."
},

"question": "Where can I learn more?",

"question": "How many tickets will each senior receive?",
"answer": "Graduates will receive enough tickets to invite three guests to Baccalaureate, four to the Class Day ceremony, six to the Senior Prom, and five to Commencement. Baccalaureate (Sunday, June 3): Guest tickets may be used for seating at indoor and outdoor simulcast sites near the Princeton University Chapel (the chapel is only large enough to accommodate the senior class). The indoor simulcast locations include McCosh 10 and Dillon Gym which are not air conditioned; and McCosh 50; McCormick 101; Betts Auditorium in the School of Architecture; and Richardson Auditorium in Alexander Hall, all of which are accessible and air conditioned. See our interactive campus map. Prom (Sunday, June 3): This is the only event where seniors are required to have a ticket. Each senior is given six tickets; one for the senior and five for guests. Anyone who does not have a prom ticket (including seniors) will not gain access to the prom. Note: Jadwin Gym, the location for the prom, is NOT air conditioned. Class Day ceremony (Monday, June 4): If weather permits, the ceremony is held on Cannon Green behind Nassau Hall. Each senior receives four guest tickets. In the case of severe weather, seniors assemble in the University chapel and guests are directed to simulcast locations including Dillon Gym, Richardson Auditorium in Alexander Hall; McCosh 10; Betts Auditorium in the School of Architecture and, for guests with disabilities, McCormick 101. In case of severe weather, tickets are required for simulcast locations; when the ceremony is on Cannon Green, the simulcast locations are unticketd. See our campus map to locate these simulcast sites. Commencement (Tuesday, June 5): Each senior receives 5 guest tickets which may be used for seating on the front lawn of Nassau Hall or, in the case of severe weather, in Jadwin Gym. The simulcast site, Richardson Auditorium in Alexander Hall, next to Nassau Hall, is unticketed and is air conditioned and accessible. Alexander Hall is the best option for guests without tickets or who may be uncomfortable because of the weather (Princeton can be hot and humid in June). See our campus map to locate Alexander Hall. The ceremony is also simulcast in Dillon Gym and on Cannon Green. Tickets are not required for seniors processing at Baccalaureate, the Class Day ceremony, or Commencement. No tickets are required for the Step Sing, and no tickets are required for the diploma distribution receptions in the residential colleges following Commencement."

"answer": "Advanced Degree recipients can find detailed information and register for events at the Graduate School Commencement Information site."
},
{
"question": "How can I get photos or videos of the events?",
"answer": "Because of the number of guests and sight lines, movement of guests wishing to take photographs or video shots is restricted during the ceremonies. Professional photographers from the University Office of Communications photograph Baccalaureate, Class Day and Commencement. Professional photographers are stationed at the FitzRandolph Gate to take pictures of graduates as they exit the gate at the end of the Commencement ceremony. Professional photographers also take pictures of diplomas being given out at the residential college receptions following Commencement. View examples from past Commencements. Photos can be downloaded for free, or print copies may be purchased on the website. The Video Production Agency produces the official Commencement DVD which is available for purchase. Seniors will receive information throughout the year via class mailings and e-mail messages. They will have the most up-to-date, detailed information. Seniors will receive more information at the class Commencement Fair in early December."

"question": "What is a financial account?",
"answer": "A. A “financial account” includes any bank, securities, securities derivatives or other financial instruments accounts. The term includes any savings, demand, checking, deposit or any other account maintained with a financial institution or other person engaged in the business of a financial institution. Financial account also generally includes any accounts in which the assets are held in a commingled fund, and the account owner holds an equity interest in the fund (including mutual funds). Individual bonds, notes, or stock certificates held by the filer are not a financial account nor is an unsecured loan to a foreign trade or business that is not a financial institution. A. The reference to “commingled fund” appears in the definition of the term “financial account” in the FBAR instructions. The instructions state that the term “financial account” generally encompasses accounts in which the assets are held in a commingled fund and the account owner holds an equity interest in the fund. Persons with a financial interest in, or signature authority over, a foreign commingled fund that is a mutual fund are required to file an FBAR unless another filing exception, as provided in the FBAR instructions or other relevant guidance, applies. The IRS will not interpret the term “commingled fund” as applying to funds other than mutual funds with respect to FBARs for calendar year 2009 and prior years. Thus, the IRS will not apply its enforcement authority adversely in the case of persons with a financial interest in, or signature authority over, any other foreign commingled fund with respect to that account for calendar year 2009 and earlier calendar years, including hedge funds and private equity funds. Notice 2010-23. Q."
},
{
"question": "Is an FBAR required for accounts maintained with financial institutions located in a foreign country if the accounts hold noncash assets, such as gold?",
"answer": "A. Yes. An account with a financial institution that is located in a foreign country is a financial account for FBAR purposes whether the account holds cash or non-monetary assets. Q."

"answer": "A. The FBAR instructions require the filing of the FBAR form “ … if the aggregate value of these financial accounts exceeds $10,000 at any time during the calendar year … ” In this scenario, the person has an FBAR filing obligation because the aggregate value of foreign financial accounts X, Y and Z is $15,100. The person must report foreign financial accounts X, Y and Z on the FBAR even though accounts X and Z have maximum account values below $10,000. Q. A person owns foreign financial accounts A, B and C with account balances of $3,000, $1,000 and $8,000, respectively."

https://southeastsailboats.co.uk/downhaul-faq/ | [
{
"question": "Why do you offer the downhaul primary line in 5mm grey but only 4mm for the coloured lines?",
"answer": "We choose what we think are the best ropes irrespective of manufacturer. However, one manufacturers 5mm can be quite different in diameter from another manufacturers 5mm, and when spliced these differences are magnified. Our 5mm D12 is from FSE Robline, but the coloured 5mm D12 that we liked is from Gottifredi Maffioili which is a bit thicker, and when spliced just wouldn’t fit with the block we use – hence we have to use the 4mm for coloured primary lines on the downhaul."
},
{
"question": "You sell both 6:1 and 8:1 downhaul systems – which is best for me?",
"answer": "The 6:1 system is best for the 4.7, radial and standard Mk1 rigs. The 8:1 is best for the standard Mk2 sail which uses a heavier cloth. If you are a lightweight sailor you may want to use the 8:1 for the radial or 4.7 rigs, accepting the tradeoff of ease of use versus more rope in the cockpit."
},
{
"question": "I sail both radial and the new standard Mk2 rigs – is it possible to have a downhaul system that works for both?",
"answer": "Yes. The tack cringle/grommet on the new Mk2 sail is about 5-6 cm higher than on all the other sails, and whilst this doesn’t sound much, when it is combined with a 6:1 or 8:1 system this distance is multiplied. Our usual downhaul system fixed the primary line at the level of the kicker tang on the lower mast. One option is to use that fixing position for the radial/Mk1, and to move the fixing position up to the top of the kicker assembly for the Mk2. This reduces the impact of the difference. It can be reduced further by using a snap type caribiner on the kicker assembly such that the primary attachment point for the Mk2 is even higher."
},
{
"question": "Why is the downhaul primary line so thick?",
"answer": "From a strength perspective Dyneema is so strong that we could probably use a very thin 1.5mm line, but it would probably saw into the tack cringle and would certainly get snagged in the gooseneck. Over the years the line has got thicker, as the type of blocks – such as the Harken 29mm block – can accept larger lines, and reducing the chance of it getting caught in the gooseneck."
},
{
"question": "You list Harken and Allen based systems – which is best?",
"answer": "From a weight perspective, the Harken block are much lighter. From a strength and functional perspective both are very similar. The Harken blocks are by far the most popular, and are the block type supplied with new UK supplied Lasers. The Allen blocks are an excellent economical solution. I like to rig my Laser differently."
},
{
"question": "Do you offer custom systems?",
"answer": "Yes. A quick walk around the Laser boat park at even a world championship will show that there is no ‘right way’ to a rig a Laser – a lot is down to personal preference, and we are happy to build up exactly what you want."
},
{
"question": "Do I have to have everything spliced together?",
"answer": "The answer is no, but there are a number of reasons why we splice our systems together. For the primary lines, the fixing to the new ‘soft attach’ blocks is important that it is done correctly, as an incorrectly fixed primary line can pull apart the head of the block. For the secondary lines, particularly the smaller Harken 18mm and Allen 20mm blocks, the size of the sheave makes it difficult to thread a 4mm control line through when a 3mm primary line has already been threaded through."
},
{
"question": "Having a spliced system is great, but what happens when the ropes inevitably wear out?",
"answer": "If you liked the original spliced system that we supplied we can rebuild the system using your original blocks. Just send the blocks back to us and we will replace and re-splice the lines for the listed price/metre of the ropes on our website – we can’t say fairer than that! I have just bought a new Laser and I have the bag of blocks and ropes that comes with it."
},
{
"question": "Can you put it all together for me?",
"answer": "Yes, we have done this for a number of customers. The bag of ropes that comes with a new Laser can be daunting. We can turn all those ropes and blocks into a ready to fit system from just £60."
},
{
"question": "Can you fit your systems with other types of control line?",
"answer": "Yes. Our standard secondary control line rope is FSE Robline Dinghy Control (which is standard on new Lasers) but we can supply most ropes that you may want. Other popular choices are English Braids continuous control line, naked 4mm Dyneema. We can also fit ropes from Gottifredi Maffioli. Some other rope types are not amenable to splicing and would be tied."

{
"question": "Can you please tell me if there are any nutritional supplements that I can take to slow down the growth of these cataracts?",
"answer": "You don't mention why you're reluctant to consider surgery. It's of crucial importance that surgery is only done at the request of the patient and with their co-operation. But cataract surgery is a frequently used technique that enjoys a high level of success. No-one looks forward to surgery, but despite misgivings – most patients find it an acceptable experience. There are no dietary changes that are recommended by conventional medicine to slow the growth of cataracts. In patients with diabetes strict control of blood glucose levels will reduce the incidence of eye complications that include cataract information. You may receive different advice from herbal advisers, but I'm not able to help with this. I apologise for not being very helpful."

{
"question": "What are the requirements for a UK man to be able to reside in China when married to a Chinese national?",
"answer": "The China visa is generally valid for 3 months from the issue date. Please apply for your visa within 3 months of entry into China, according to your travel itinerary, and avoid expiry of the visa. Also don't apply too late to avoid the extra cost of express application processing. Usually it is recommended to apply about 6 weeks prior to travel. Typically tourist visas are processed in 4 working days. Please also decide the duration of stay in China. The permitted duration of stay of Chinese tourist visas are generally up to 30 days. If you need to stay longer, it is suggested that you contact the Chinese Embassy before making the application or ask your travel advisor for more information. You should apply for individual visas. Tour groups with China Highlights usually don't require a tourist visa. A group visa is usually applicable to an organized group, which is arranged by tour companies in the originating country or in China. It requires the tourists to enter and exit the country at the same time as a group, and the Chinese Embassy in your country would ask for a special document that requires an official stamp from the tourism bureau in China. China Highlights does not issue this type of document. See more information about types of China visa. China Highlights recommends that you obtain your visa before leaving the country where you live. The costs and the length of time to process a visa vary from country to country. Please check the website for the Chinese Embassy in your country to find the information applicable to you. Read about how to apply for a China visa. Your passport (original, not a copy), which must be valid for at least 6 months from the date of travel, with at least one blank visa page (amendment pages and pages with bar codes are not acceptable for visa stamping). One completed, signed Visa Application Form and two passport photosfor each passport. Application forms can usually be downloaded from the embassy website. This visa application form (2013) is used for most visa applications. Download it, print it out, and fill it in. The Chinese consular departments requires a photo similar to the one in your passport. They only accept photos which are head-only (a little neck and shoulders is ok), full head shown without adornment (unless usually worn, e.g. glasses and religious headgear), with a white background, approximately 45mm by 35mm. Cut-outs from personal photographs are not acceptable."
},
{
"question": "How do I get from your company for my visa application?",
"answer": "We can supply an invitation letter to our clients upon request after written confirmation of the tour booking. Your travel advisor can give you more information about it when you apply for the visa. Upon receiving your information, we will fax you your tour confirmation letter on our official stationery with our company seal. Residents of most countries can enter Hong Kong without applying for a visa in advance and are allowed to stay for 90 days. A visa will be issued on arrival. See our Hong Kong visa information. d) Nationals of China's mainland with valid Macau entry/exit documents. If you join in a tour group your visa should be processed by your travel agency in Macau. See our Macau visa information. You can apply for a China visa in your home country before leaving for China or in Hong Kong, or ask a travel agency to apply for a 114 Group Visa if there are 3 or more people in your group. It is possible to get a tourist visa (L), a business visa (M), a work visa (Z), a student visa (X), and many other types in Hong Kong. It can be obtained with the help of a travel agent, but at least 3 full working days should be allowed for this procedure. Read more on How to Get a China Visa in Hong Kong. Single-entry China tourist visas are usually valid for 3 months after the issue date, and will permit you to stay in China for a maximum of 30 days. This visa will allow you to travel as a tourist or conduct general business activities. Most people need only to apply for a single-entry. You need to apply for \"double entry\" or \"multiple entry\" visa if you need to leave and re-enter mainland China. Even when go to Hong Kong or Macau from mainland China you still need to have a \"double entry\" or \"multiple entry\" visa. China's official regulations prevent independent foreign travelers from traveling to Tibet. All foreign travelers must book a tour through a Tibet travel agent and be accompanied by a Tibet tour guide. China Highlights Travel offers great Tibet tour packages, and we will also take care of your Tibet Entry Permit (through our Tibet agents). A China visa is required in addition to the Tibet Entry Permit. Read more on Tibet Travel Permits. Foreigners who want to stay in China beyond the duration of their visa need to apply for an extension. 2. a completed visa extension application form containing the reason for the extension. The length of the extension depends on the type of visa, and multiple-entry visas can not be extended. You are advised not to overstay the duration of your visa, or fail to apply for an extension before your visa expires, as you risk being heavily fined and have your travel plans disrupted. Please contact your travel advisor for assistance on visa extensions. Ask your tour guide for assistance, and immediately report the loss to the nearest Public Security Bureau, who will issue a passport loss report. Go to your hotel and ask for a stamped proof of your residency. You will need those for a new passport application. The processing time is about 2 working days. After the new passport is issued, go to the Public Security Bureau and apply for new visa, so you can continue your trip or leave for your country. When married to a Chinese you are entitled to a one-year L visa, obtainable by presenting your marriage certificate (or authorized translation if not Chinese), wife’s identity card, registration of residence certificate (you must register where you live at your local police station), passport, and fee at your local visa office. On an L visa you can’t legally do paid work or study an officially recognized course in China, so if you want to do either of these you should apply for the appropriate visa, usually at the Chinese embassy in the UK. Permanent residence in China is difficult to obtain. For more information about relevant requirements, see http://www.gov.cn/english/2005-08/29/content_27379.htm."

"answer": "Our trained hosts range from single men and women to young couples, families, and retirees; their professional and personal backgrounds are equally diverse. What they have in common is compassion, generosity, trust, and a desire to support others. All individuals who meet the Hospitality Homes host eligibility requirements will be welcomed regardless of race, creed, citizenship, physical disability, gender, color, ethnic heritage, veteran status, economic status, or sexual orientation. Hospitality Homes hosts provide a clean and comfortable place to sleep and access to a bathroom. Hospitality Homes hosts do not provide meals or transportation. A few hosts live within walking distance of the major hospitals; most live in areas with access to public transportation (subway or buses). Hospitality Homes' success relies on the generosity of volunteer hosts. Donations from guests and others sustain the program. Our suggested donation is $25.00 per night but we encourage guests to donate at a level that is most comfortable. The ability for a guest to make a contribution does not affect our ability to find a host. If you cancel your stay after we have arranged to place you with a host family, you may be subject to a cancellation fee of $25.00."
},
{
"question": "Will I need to provide a character reference?",
"answer": "Yes. Our staff will ask for the name and phone number of a professional reference for each adult guest—ideally someone who has known the guest for 6 months. This person should know the guest well; believe that the guest is responsible, considerate, and independent; and attest that the individual is someone who would be welcome in his/her own home. Although this is a character reference, rather than a medical reference, friends, family, and neighbors cannot be used as reference sources. Hospitality Homes prefers a professional reference, such as a co-worker or employer, but if necessary, we can help a guest find an appropriate contact. We prefer about two weeks notice. However, we understand that this is not always possible and are often able to make last-minute placements. If your application is submitted more than two weeks in advance, we will call you two weeks before your scheduled arrival date to confirm your need for housing before we start the placement process."
},
{
"question": "Is it guaranteed that Hospitality Homes will find me a host home?",
"answer": "Our program depends on the availability of our volunteer hosts. If we are unable to find you a host, we will notify you. We strongly recommend you have a back up housing option before you arrive in Boston."
},
{
"question": "What happens after the application process and character references are complete?",
"answer": "The Hospitality Homes staff searches for a host who is able to meet your needs (e.g., number of beds, number of nights, parking, etc.) When a host has been identified, we will give you the host's name and phone number. You will be responsible for calling the host as soon as possible to introduce yourself. You will also be responsible for calling your host 48 hours prior to your arrival to confirm the arrangement."
},
{
"question": "What about liability release form?",
"answer": "The Liability Release Form is a part of our online application. This section of the application must be completed before applying to the program."
},
{
"question": "What happens when I arrive at my host's home?",
"answer": "Your host will welcome you and familiarize you with your accommodations. This is the time to ask questions and discuss expectations in order to make your stay as comfortable as possible for both you and your host."

"question": "What are the best dream eaters, spells and abilities to get?",
"answer": "I'm playing on normal and am just looking to finish the game, I have this on ps4 but it's board is dead. Trying to finish it real quick before I start 3. Spirits: This varies depending on play style and what part of the game you're at, but usually, Skelterwild, Lord Kyroo, and Frootz Cat are a good team for general use (with Frootz Cat on the bench). Some people like to swap in Yoggy Ram for Lord Kyroo for boss battles, because it uses Spirit Roar more often. I've never needed to use him, though, even on Critical mode. Keep in mind that you can't upgrade their rank once they're made, so try to make the star rank right away (find Risky Winds forecast to use less pieces). Spells: All the fire spells are good choices (Firaga, Firaga Burst, Dark Firaga). The Balloon spells are also pretty popular, although I don't use them. Make sure to also have several Curagas in your deck. Abilities: For the end game, you'll eventually want Superglide for Sora, and Dark Roll for Riku, as those are their best ways to dodge attacks (Sora also has his own dodge roll, but it's not very good). Dark Barrier for Riku is also pretty good to get, as it blocks attacks from all directions. The most essential ones for both of them are Second Chance, Once More, and Leaf Bracer. Fire Screens can also be useful, as there are multiple bosses that use fire (Riku will likely face 2 in a row). You'll also need Lightning Screens and some status blocks if you plan on taking on Julius."

Going to the gym, the dentist and eating veggies are great healthy habits, just like chiropractic. Getting the best results from these things comes from choosing to incorporate them on a regular basis forever."

The Gonstead adjusting technique is acknowledged as one of the safest and most effective systems of evaluating and caring for the spine. It is flexible enough to be applied to all ages, from newborn to the golden years. We only adjust the problem areas and leave the rest alone. More information about this technique can be found on the GCSS website. We don’t know if any condition is related to the spine and nervous system until we check you. The best way to find out is to come in and get checked!"

"question": "What is Initiatives of Change?",
"answer": "Initiatives of Change (IofC) is a global network of people from diverse cultures and backgrounds, who are committed to the transformation of society through changes in human motives and behaviour, starting in their own lives. Moments of personal transformation often mark a new direction in a person’s life. And personal change can often lead to change in situations. Initiatives of Change began under the name of the Oxford Group in the 1920s. It was initiated by Frank Buchman (see www.frankbuchman.info for a searchable biography). His experience of finding freedom from resentment towards colleagues was a dramatic turning point in his life. Against a backdrop of the rise of Communism and Fascism and global economic recession, his insight that deep personal transformation is the key to social change inspired students in universities in America and Europe in the 1920s and 30s. His work spread to many sectors of society and became a world-wide movement of moral and spiritual renewal. 3."
},
{
"question": "Is Initiatives of Change a religious organisation?",
"answer": "IofC is not affiliated to a particular church or faith community. Rather, it embraces individuals from a variety of backgrounds – religious, spiritual and secular. IofC encourages people of faith to explore the roots of their own faith or spiritual tradition, and to live them out while respecting the beliefs of others. IofC challenges each person, whatever their spiritual persuasion, to live in a way that is relevant to answering society's needs by beginning a process of change within themselves. All are encouraged to look at their lives in the light of universal moral values, and to take time each day for silent reflection. 4."
},
{
"question": "What are the main ideas of IofC?",
"answer": "Change starts with me: Most of us are very good at seeing where others need to change. Initiatives of Change suggests that if we want to see the world change, we need to start with ourselves. We become part of this movement for change as we move beyond denial and blame towards responsible action. A new attitude or behavior in just one person can often be a catalyst for change in a wider situation. Initiatives of Change emphasizes that there is a connection between the personal and the global: when people and relationships change, situations change. Frank Buchman was a Christian but his work included people of many religious, spiritual and secular traditions. Buchman’s approach - of valuing the contributions of people from diverse cultures and beliefs - was far ahead of its time. 5."
},
{
"question": "What is a ‘quiet time’?",
"answer": "IofC places the search for inner wisdom at the heart of its approach. The regular practice of silence, also called ‘quiet time,’ is an opportunity for reflection to listen to the deepest voice in one’s heart. For some this voice is Spirit or God, and for others it is the conscience or inner voice. Quiet time allows a person to consider what changes may be needed in one’s own life and to find the inspiration to make those changes. For more on this subject, you may like to download ‘The Sound of Silence’. 6."
},
{
"question": "Why does Initiatives of Change advocate absolute moral values?",
"answer": "Buchman had a gift for expressing spiritual truth in non-religious language. His experience of meeting and speaking with people of all faiths and cultural backgrounds showed him that the principles of honesty, purity, unselfishness and love are universal. Given the human capacity for self-deception, Buchman recognised the need to consider these values as ‘absolute’. Consider the difference between the questions, ‘Am I honest?’ and ‘Am I absolutely honest?’ These principles form the bed-rock of the changes in individuals upon which the various initiatives of change are built. The word ‘absolute’ is intended to provide a guide by which to measure our motives and actions, rather than a set of unachievable rules. Of course no one can achieve perfection but we can all travel a road towards our highest aspirations. Learning to seek forgiveness when we fall short is an important part of the journey. To further guard against self-deception, individuals are encouraged to share and confirm their insights with a trusted friend. 7."
},
{
"question": "Where does Initiatives of Change get its funding?",
"answer": "IofC is financed largely by contributions from individuals who believe that this spirit and practice are needed. Increasingly specific projects are financed by Foundations and official bodies. Legal bodies exist in many countries to administer funds and property. 8."
},
{
"question": "How many people work for Initiatives of Change?",
"answer": "Many people volunteer their time in various capacities. There are several hundred people across the world who devote all their time, energy, and resources; many thousands more who make it the basis of their family and working lives; and countless others whose application of these principles has resulted in far reaching changes around them. 9."
},
{
"question": "How do I get involved with Initiatives of Change?",
"answer": "Anyone who wants to be part of building trust across the world’s divides can become involved. Please contact us if you would like to learn more, get involved or support Initiatives of Change financially."

For nights and weekends we provide emergency instructions at 916-458-5244. In a fire or flood emergency please call 911. Your credit is one of several factors used in your application. Our application process also considers income, employment, rental history and background. We process applications as quickly as possible. We must verify your employment, rental history, and credit. Verifiable rental history is required and is often the most difficult part of your application to verify. We will call you if we are having trouble obtaining any information. If we cannot verify information we have to move on to another application. If we already are processing someone else's application on the property you apply for, your application may have to wait for that application to be completed. Make sure the name of your landlord is the owner of the property or the property management company. Providing daytime phone numbers can shorten the turnaround time. Your property manager will guide you through the entire move-in process. Once your application is approved, rental deposit and funds are received and the home is ready we’ll get you in right away."

{
"question": "What are the criteria used to qualify?",

The total income for the household must be at least 3 times the monthly rent. All income must be lawful and verifiable. We will ask for a current pay stub for each applicant. Other forms of verification may include: IRS 1040 (first 2 pages), court documentation, or county aid documentation. Credit reports will be run on all adult occupants wishing to rent the home. Applications will not be accepted if evictions, judgments or liens appear on the credit report. In addition, background checks will be run using online public data bases. Landlord history will be verified for the last 4 years. Again, if any applicant has had an eviction, the application will be denied."

"answer": "In our web shop this information is shown in the sensor article texts. In addition, the SensorTack® App can be used to show which vehicle can be repaired with SensorTack® 2."
},
{
"question": "Can other sensors be repaired with SensorTack® 2?",
"answer": "No, only sensors for which a SensorTack® 2 refill mould is available can be repaired. With one syringe content of SensorTack® 2, one refill mould can be filled."
},
{
"question": "What do I do with the rest of the gel in the syringe?",
"answer": "As one syringe of SensorTack® 2 is sufficient for one refill only, normally the whole content is used up. However, if there remains some gel in the syringe, you may dispose of it in the domestic waste. The replacing of windscreens (especially mobile fitting), is often carried out at temperatures below 23°C. As the gel cures according to the ambient temperature (cold = slowly, warm = fast), it should only be processed in areas where the temperature is at least between 10°C and 30°C maximum. However, when using our SensorTack® heating box (article no. 133601210), SensorTack® 2 can even be processed at temperatures of minus 15°C."
},
{
"question": "When has the SensorTack® 2 gel cured completely and how can I check it?",
"answer": "If you work with the SensorTack® heating box the curing process takes 6-8 minutes at normal ambient temperatures of 20°C. At lower ambient temperatures of below 15°C the reaction time is longer. A table detailing the curing times at different temperatures is attached on the inside of the lid of the heating box. You can test the reaction of the SensorTack® 2 gel at the edge of the sensor by carefully touching the outer gel surface with a clean object (e.g. blade of screwdriver). The gel has spilled over the edge of the refill mould."
},
{
"question": "How do I store SensorTack® 2?",
"answer": "SensorTack® 2 should be stored in a dry place at temperatures between 15°C and 25°C. SensorTack® 2 should not affect the function of the optical unit, as the pad has been designed to OEM specifications and providing all the necessary pre-checks and procedures have been carried out, the sensor should function correctly. It is important therefore to perform a function test on the original sensor before removing the glass (by using water to test the wipers and by covering the sensor eye to check the lights), to check that all features are working correctly. If however the sensor fails to function correctly after the repair, then it will be necessary to use specialist diagnostic equipment, to check the error and re-activate the affected function."

Our tour route and stops are at convenient locations all around the island, within walking distance of most major hotels and attractions. Yes, strollers must be folded and stored during the tour. For the safety of the child, it is never allowed for the baby to ride in the stroller through the tour. Strollers in the aisle ways would constitute a safety hazard. Guests may board and disembark at any stop. If the guest is ambulatory, collapsible wheelchairs can be accommodated at any time. We will fold them and stow them during the tour. Guests may board and disembark at any stop. We request that you give us as much notice as possible as to your arrival date and the time you’d like to take the tour (24 hours preferred). This will assure that a properly equipped vehicle will be made available for your use. Please arrive at your pre arranged stop no less than 15 minutes prior to your departure time so that we can accomplish the loading process smoothly and safely. This means that you will need to secure your own transportation to one of these locations and that you cannot utilize the ON/OFF privileges on the tour. Because of the high volume of our stops, including significant traffic density and uneven pavement, use of the lift outside of these locations would be inadvisable.

http://stevenmileyphotography.com/aurora-photography-tours-faq | [
{
"question": "Why should I choose your tour over a Fairbanks tour?",
"answer": "On the night of your tour, usually after dinner but possibly before if the aurora is expected to appear early, I will meet you at the Lodge to set expectations for what you might see, show you how to operate your camera gear, and demonstrate techniques for photographing the aurora while you practice shooting before we leave in our tour vehicle. If we haven't already planned a shooting location, I will describe the different places we could go that night and offer recommendations based on the weather, moonlight, the amount of snow cover on the ground, the dynamics of your group, the kind of shots you are hoping to achieve, and any other relevant factors. The actual time we depart the Lodge is flexible but is usually between 9 and 11 p.m. We typically won't drive more than 50 miles one-way to reach a shooting location or escape clouds since we offer options that allow you to pick a night with better weather for your tour, but we may bend that limit under certain circumstances. We may visit several locations to add a little diversity to our shots, and we will stay out as late as you want with me as your coach photographing the aurora. I recommend to guests that we stay out until at least 2 or 3 a.m. because peak aurora activity usually lasts until then; members of your group who become tired or feel cold can relax in the vehicle with blankets and hot chocolate or coffee. You have a high chance of seeing moose or caribou during your tour as well!"
},
{
"question": "What will I experience during a tour?",
"answer": "Yes. For logistics reasons, I do not currently provide tours for visitors or locals staying in the Delta Junction area or anywhere besides the Lodge at Black Rapids."
},
{
"question": "Do I have to stay at the Lodge at Black Rapids to book a tour?",
"answer": "Reserving a multi-night window for your tour is the most cost-effective way to have your tour on the night with the best weather and aurora conditions during your stay, which can make a huge difference in your images and aurora viewing experience. There is simply no comparison between an average aurora display and the type of enhanced aurora seen during a geomagnetic storm—trust me, you don’t want to miss out on a great aurora display by a day or two! Also, photographers seeking as much time as they can get with the aurora can take advantage of discounted rates for additional tours during their stay if conditions turn out to be favorable, and reserving a multi-night window is the only way to guarantee there will be additional tour availability in advance. Waiting until the last minute to book your tour may result in no tour availability."
},
{
"question": "Do I get a refund if I don't see the aurora?",
"answer": "No, all tours are non-refundable once booked. The weather and quality of the aurora display you might see are always uncertain, so we design our tour options with more flexibility than those offered by other tour operators to give you a better chance of a decent aurora sighting during your tour. You will also be given expert aurora photography instruction whether the aurora shows up or not so you will be ready to photograph on your own during the rest of your Alaska visit. (You can apply your knowledge to shooting in other low light situations as well.) I will help you plan shooting locations if you decide to venture out on your own during the rest of your stay, and I will continue to provide alerts for aurora activity/sightings after your tour. We are dedicated to making your aurora photography quest successful during your stay in Alaska, even if your tour winds up unsuccessful."
},
{
"question": "How do I select the date for my tour if I book a multi-night window?",
"answer": "There is no deadline to choose the date for your tour. I will be in touch with you before and after your arrival to provide recommendations based on the weather and aurora forecast. Generally, the first night in your window with relatively clear skies will be the one I recommend, though this might not be the case if the weather looks exceptionally good during your stay or there is a geomagnetic storm expected on a different night. We may also wait until late afternoon to make a go/no-go call on a given night, but will usually make the call before dinner so you may enjoy your evening. Guests make the ultimate decision! Your tour may be canceled due to severe weather that presents a risk to your safety, but not simply due to cloudy weather, snow, or cold temperatures. (-40 °F is a possibility!) For example, a tour might be canceled due to a high wind warning producing excessively low wind chills or a blizzard creating dangerous driving conditions. If your tour is canceled, you will be offered a full refund for the tour or the choice to reschedule your tour without charge if there is availability. If you reserve a multi-night window for your tour, we will not cancel your tour or extend your tour window for severe weather except in the rare circumstance that your entire tour window is affected. Tours may be canceled for other reasons beyond our control, including natural disasters, road closures, etc., in which case we will provide the same options to refund or reschedule your tour. Trip insurance is recommended for guests in case they miss their tour due to travel delays, illness, etc."
},
{
"question": "What happens if my tour is canceled?",
"answer": "Yes. Guests seldom realize it until they arrive but tracking the weather and aurora activity in a remote location in Alaska can be difficult. In fact, just figuring out which direction is north is tough for many! On cloudy nights at the Lodge, we may sometimes find clearer skies by driving 50 miles or so on icy roads that can be extremely daunting to those without experience driving on ice. (Please drive slow and watch for moose.) Guests without any experience viewing the aurora will be at an extreme disadvantage when it comes to judging how \"good\" the display they are seeing is and may not even realize they are looking at a weak aurora. Even though most people who visit Interior Alaska in the winter do so to see the aurora, you'd be surprised how hard it is for many of them to stay up at night to look for it; waking up every hour to check for the aurora is a great way to miss an amazing display that only lasts for a few minutes! By booking a tour, you'll have me as your local expert to make sure you are looking for the right things in the right places at the right times throughout your entire stay (not just during your tour), and you'll be \"forced\" to stay up and look for the aurora at least once. And a cell phone isn't going to capture a good picture of you beneath the aurora!"
},

"question": "If no one in my group is a photographer, is there any benefit to booking a tour?",
"answer": "No. Tours are private and booked on a first-come, first-served basis. However, if there is still tour availability on a given night, guests belonging to different parties are welcome to pool together if they wish to defray the cost of a tour."
},
{
"question": "Can I join a tour that has already been reserved by other guests?",
"answer": "No. If you are bringing a DSLR or a camera with a tripod along, you must pay the photographer rate. Obviously, you will still be able to observe any instruction I'm giving to others and if you have trouble taking your own pictures the temptation for you to ask for help from me or the other photographers receiving instruction will be too great. You don't have to pay the photographer rate if you are only trying to capture images with your cell phone...but don't count on getting any decent images that way."
},
{
"question": "If I want to bring a camera but don't desire photography instruction, can I be charged the non-photographer rate?",
"answer": "Guests who wind up with great weather and aurora activity during their stay may wish to purchase more than one tour. If you reserve a multi-night window, you are able to book an additional tour on any night during your window for a flat rate of $200 with guaranteed availability and on any night outside your window for $300 if there is availability. The rate for an additional tour does not depend on the number of people in your party, but you may not swap or add new guests without paying the per-person rate for each new person. Guests simply ask me or the Lodge staff for another tour and pay for it upon checkout. For example, a family of six with only one photographer books the flexible-date option with a 3-night window for $900 and decides to pay $200 for an additional tour on the last night of their window after having a successful first tour, paying a total of $1100 for two tours. (Two non-private Aurora Chasers tours in Fairbanks would cost this family $3600!) If you think you may want to book multiple aurora photography tours during your Alaska visit, you could possibly save thousands of dollars with us!"
},
{
"question": "How do I purchase additional tours during my stay?",
"answer": "Temperatures in Interior Alaska can drop below 0 °F (-18 °C) at night by mid-October and -40 °F is a possibility starting in November and lasting through March. To stay marginally comfortable in temperatures this cold you need to wear multiple thick layers, including a heavy base layer for your upper and lower body, insulated pants, a mid-weight upper layer covered by a heavy upper layer, and a big, puffy coat on over everything. Wool or synthetic materials work well for base layers but cotton is actually great for your other layers—trust me, you won't be sweating if you're not engaging in physical activity so your cotton layers will retain their insulating properties. Tuck your upper layers into your pants to help retain the heat produced by your body. You need mittens, not gloves, and you should wear glove liners so you can take your mittens off briefly if you need dexterity. Do not handle any cold objects with bare hands, especially metal—this includes your camera, tripod, door handles, etc., and avoid tightly gripping objects or letting your fingers rest against cold objects even if wearing gloves or mittens. (Example: Carry your tripod in your arms rather than holding it with your hands.) If your fingers or hands start to get cold, it's better to take your mittens off and place your fingers directly against your body until they warm back up. Hand warmers inside your mittens can work wonders. You'll need a head covering and something to cover your face on very cold nights such as a balaclava or scarf. (The tip of your nose and ears are more susceptible to frostbite.) You need heavy winter boots rated to -40 °F that don't fit too tightly with wool socks on to prevent cutting off circulation to your toes. We have hand warmers and toe warmers to help keep your digits warm, which are at the highest risk of frostbite. We'll have a heated vehicle nearby to warm up if you need to, and moving around will help you stay warm. If you dread the cold, consider a September & early October trip, or late March & early April. The Lodge does not rent cold weather gear but may be able to make special arrangements or direct you somewhere you can purchase your own. My Aurora Photography Guide provides a good primer on photographing the aurora, including information on the camera gear and settings you should be using as well as tips for planning and composing your shots. For an exhaustive treatment, I recommend Patrick Endres's e-book. There are many aurora photography tutorials on the web, but most are simply concerned with gear and camera settings rather than the artistic aspect, and some of them offer poor or outdated information, so be careful what you read. I'm happy to answer questions you may have in advance, especially about cameras & lenses. To learn more about the aurora itself, see here."
},
{
"question": "Where can I learn more about the aurora and aurora photography?",
"answer": "It depends on what else you want to see and do during your Alaska visit. If you come in September you can see the fall colors and enjoy hiking during your stay. If you come in December you can contemplate the serene austerity of winter in the Alaska Range while you relax by the fireplace. If you come in early March you can see the Iditarod or enjoy playing in the snow with a decent chance of \"warm\" temperatures during the day. Yes, you're somewhat statistically more likely to find clearer skies at night in March but it's not a guarantee, and I've seen jaw-dropping aurora shows in every month ranging from late August to mid-April. If you plan a stay of a week or more you've got a great chance at seeing the aurora no matter what month you visit while also having plenty of time to experience the rest of Alaska's offerings. If you stay three nights, you'll spend almost as much time traveling as you do enjoying your vacation and you could easily wind up with three cloudy nights in a row no matter what month you visit, or you might catch the aurora during a period of low activity, which we are currently seeing more often because we are near solar minimum. If you're making a once-in-a-lifetime trip to Alaska to see the aurora, stay for 10 days or two weeks, but don't waste your whole time sitting around a hotel in Fairbanks or Chena Hot Springs waiting for the clouds to clear every night. Have yourself a memorable vacation in case the aurora fails to appear or meet your expectations."

{
"question": "Home » FAQs » How Can A PEO Help A Business Control Costs?",
"answer": "Running a business is difficult. It comes with complications that many first-time business owners may not foresee, such as dealing with complex tax law, adhering to convoluted regulations, putting workplace safety policies in place, and more. Even worse, the solution of hiring an in-house accountant and human resources staff can rack up serious bills. PEOs (or professional employer organizations) are here to help. By partnering with a PEO from the nationwide network of NetPEO, companies can reduce the overhead cost of human resources while still controlling other expenses. Here are the main ways that a PEO can help your business control its costs."
},
{
"question": "Related: Can A New Business Afford The Cost Of A PEO?",
"answer": "The first way that PEOs can help your business reduce needless expense is by performing the services of full-time, in-house HR and accounting departments for a fraction of the cost. Typically, the cost of hiring a PEO can be broken down into two options. Some PEOs charge business owners as a percentage of a company’s overall payroll. This can be a good option for companies looking for more flexibility or companies that have a large number of workers on lower wages. The usual cost of a PEO is between 3% and 10% of payroll. For other businesses, the better option may be to pay a PEO a flat yearly fee per employee. This is often a better choice for businesses with an inflated payroll or businesses that want a more predictable expense for budgeting purposes. The usual cost of a PEO via this option is between $900 and $1,500 per employee each year. Regardless of which option is chosen by the client company, the end result is that the business owner receives stellar HR services for much less than it would cost to hire a salaried HR or accounting staff."
},
{
"question": "Related: How Can A PEO Save Your Business Money?",
"answer": "Simply being less expensive than in-house options may be enough to convince business owners of hiring a PEO, but there is much more they can offer. Several of the services PEOs provide are directly linked to controlling and reducing unwanted or unnecessary expenses. An even more frustrating expense for business owners is needless employee turnover. No sooner do you expend money, time, and energy bringing a new worker into the fold than they (or another employee) hand in their two-weeks’ notice. PEOs can help reduce costly turnover in several ways. In fact, a recent study found that overall employee turnover rates was reduced by 10% to 14% for businesses that teamed up with a PEO. First, PEOs enter into co-employment agreements with the businesses they serve, giving them a much larger employee pool than any one client business. This means that they have better negotiating ability to provide top-tier employee benefits packages. It also means that the individual cost of these benefits is greatly reduced, since it can be spread out over a larger number of employees. Better benefits often lead to lower numbers of employees wanting to pursue employment elsewhere. Secondly, PEOs can help employers in the recruitment process. Recruiting more rigorously can ensure that employees who do end up employed by your business are a better fit and last longer. PEOs also help by creating a more fruitful and effective onboarding process and can work to build a positive company culture that lends itself toward attracting long-serving employees."

"question": "How should I arrange my workstation to care for my eye sight?",
"answer": "The ideal distance between monitor and your eyes must be 20–30 inches from your face. If the distance is greater or less than this, it could cause problems in vision and posture eventually. Do not position monitor at an angle. Make sure the light does not reflect from the computer screen. If bright light from the window falls directly on to the screen, rotate your work station to avoid it. If this is not possible, tone down the light coming in with blinds or shutters. It is good to have your work area well lit but it becomes pointless if the bright lights are going to bounce off the computer screen. Organize the lighting so that the illumination is comfortable for you."
},
{
"question": "Should I put on my contact lenses before or after applying cosmetics?",
"answer": "Put on your contact lenses before applying cosmetics and remove your lenses before removing your cosmetics. This is important as we do not want to have any foreign cosmetic chemicals or particles on your fingers to come in contact with the surface of your lenses. If your natural eye color is brown, you might choose contact lenses in violet, green, or blue."
},
{
"question": "Do you wear eye makeup?",
"answer": "Choose a contact lens color that will stand out from the shadow and mascara colors you like to wear. If your natural eye color is blue, you might choose contact lenses in gray or green."
},
{
"question": "Do I need a prescription to purchase color lenses?",
"answer": "Yes, even if your lenses don't have any vision correction in them (called \"plano\" lenses) and are used solely for cosmetic purposes, you still need an eye care practitioner to identify the suitable base curve and diameter of lenses for your eyes."
},
{
"question": "Can I switch contact lens solutions depending upon what is on sale?",
"answer": "Each contact lens care solution has different chemical contents. Some use harsh preservatives that cause sensitivity and even allergy in a high percentage of users. Some can discolor a patient's contact lenses, making them unwearable. Sometimes the chemicals in one lens cleaning system can improperly combine with the chemicals in another system when they are used in combination, causing a reaction for the user. Rest assured, COMPLETE MoisturePLUS is the least cytotoxic MPS in the market. If in doubt, ask your eyecare practitioner!"
},
{
"question": "Why is moisture so heavily emphasized in most brands of contact lenses and multi-purpose solution?",
"answer": "80% of the oxygen needed by the cornea comes through the dissolved oxygen in the atmosphere. When your eyes are dry, it is unable to utilize oxygen from the atmosphere. Only by maintaining eye moisture, can the eyes breathe naturally. Also, try to avoid drinks like coffee as much as possible. Coffee has diuresis function. Reduce coffee drinking to reduce dehydration. There are so many types of multi-purpose solution in the market."
},
{
"question": "How do I make sure that my lenses are clean?",
"answer": "1. Wash and dry hands before putting on or removing lens. 3. Rub your lenses for extra cleaning or base on your optometrist’s advice. 4. Don’t wear lenses beyond recommended period. 6. Don’t touch tip of solution bottle to any surface. 7. Remove/stop using lenses if you experience unusual eye symptoms. Practice the above and you can be rest assured your lenses are clean and safe to wear."
},
{
"question": "Can I share contact lenses with my friends?",
"answer": "Contact lenses are medical devices and are fitted to the specifications of each individual's eyes. Exchanging lenses can also transmit harmful bacteria, which can lead to an eye infection or other potentially dangerous eye conditions."
},
{
"question": "Can I wear contact lenses if I am a dry eye patient?",
"answer": "Please consult your Eyecare or Contact Lens practitioners as some dry eye patients can be helped by using eye drops and special lens type material."
},
{
"question": "Is it safe to wear lenses to swim?",
"answer": "It is recommended to wear goggles for safety. However, if you must wear contacts just for swimming, please wear daily disposable lenses that are meant to be worn and thrown away without ever cleaning or disinfecting them. However, water from swimming pool and sea contains dirt and germs and it will increase the rate of corneal infection when wearing contact lenses (decrease in the metabolism due to lack of oxygen). Bi-weekly, monthly disposable and conventional lenses are not recommended to be wearied for swimming as micro-organisms such as acanthameba found in pool, can contaminated with your contact lenses."
},
{
"question": "Is it safe to wear my lenses to sleep?",
"answer": "It is NOT recommended/ safe to sleep with daily wear lenses. Your eyes are exposed to increase risk of infection due to a lack of oxygen supply. Please consult your contact lens practitioners if you need."
},
{
"question": "Can my contact lenses roll up behind my eyes and get stuck there?",
"answer": "Absolutely not ! The eye is totally separated from what lies behind. Contact lenses can slide off the cornea and they can also get stuck in the corners of the \"pocket,\" but it is not dangerous, and the lenses can easily be removed once they are located. If you think you have a contact lens someplace in your eye, and you can't find it, call your eyecare practitioner."
},
{
"question": "How many hours a day can I wear my contact lenses and what should I do when I experience dry eye symptoms when wearing contact lenses for long hours?",
"answer": "The recommended period is 8 hours a day. Again, the hours of wearing varies depending on the condition of the eyes of different wearers. Some may have dry eye symptom and can only wear 4 hours while some may suffer from sensitive eyes and may only wear for a short period of time. Follow the instructions of your ECPs and always be alert on your eye condition. If at all you feel dryness while wearing lenses, it may be due to the environment that you are in – air conditioned, windy, low level of humidity countries and etc, use a contact lens lubricating drops such as BLINK contacts eye drop. It contains Sodium Hyaluronate (HA), a natural ingredient that can be found in your body that is able to hold water 1,000 times its weight. Also, it is gentle to the eyes as it is preservative free. I'm short sighted."
},
{
"question": "Should I start wearing glasses or contact lenses?",
"answer": "It is advisable for new patient to start off with a pair of glasses. After some time, you may want to wear contact lenses for convenience or vanity reasons i.e. sports and formal functions. There are different types of contact lenses to cater to different needs of patients – Daily wear, continuous wear, daily disposable, RGP and etc. Enquire more with your eye care professionals about it. You may consider LASIK treatment if you want a hassle free vision correction option. LASIK is a refractive surgery which corrects your short sighted problem using laser assisted in situ keratomileusis. After LASIK , you won’t need glasses or contact lenses anymore to have perfect vision. However, it is quite a costly option and may not be suitable for all patients. Prior checking by doctors is required before going for such treatment. Normally, shortsighted starts at the early of 10 years old, therefore, LASIK is not good/applicable to the eyes while growing up as the eyes are not stable in shape. When you are in age of 16 or over, wearing C/L is recommended as she should be mature enough to handle the contact lens and her hygiene. She/He can select either contact lens or spectacles but you must have spare spectacles in case you would like to take a rest from wearing C/L."

"question": "FAQs - Who uses Sharepoint and why?",
"answer": "From a family of four sharing photos to a corporation of 10,000 sharing data -- to complete mission-critical tasks in a cutting-edge, collaborative workplace environment that is both flexible and secure. SharePoint Foundation 2010 is the answer for collaboration within your business, your home, or a community group. It’s user-friendly and great for sharing anything: file storage, contacts, calendars, a wiki, an intranet site, photo albums, schedules, sales leads anything. Clearly, while some SharePoint customers represent smaller organizations, deployments are also popular among mid-sized organizations, large departments and even large enterprises, which typically use SharePoint Server 2010. According to a 2009 survey by the consultancy InfoTrends, almost half of mid- to large-sized enterprises use SharePoint rates that beat all of the other document and content platforms such as EMC, IBM, Open Text, Oracle, Hyland and others. Of these SharePoint customers, the largest companies create more than 100 SharePoint sites every month and already have more than 200 sites to manage on average (about a quarter of which are inactive or not in regular use). Although SharePoint use varies considerably across and within company size segments, nearly all organizations that have deployed it rely on it primarily for basic collaboration and document management. Other key uses include \"team\" site creation, network file storage and basic workflows (i.e., review and approvals)."

"question": "Can I really buy without a bank?",
"answer": "Yes you can! If the seller of the house is happy to get paid over a period of time, and you can afford the repayments, then you don’t need a bank loan or mortgage to get started. Usually the seller will agree to do this for a certain period that will allow you time to be able to qualify for a loan and complete the purchase. Depending on the type of contract, you may never need to get a loan, but usually you will be better off ‘refinancing’ when you can, as it will save you money in the long run. So, while you may not need a bank to start with, the plan is usually that you will need a bank to finish. Vendor Finance, Seller Finance or Owner Finance, describes ways that the seller of a property (the Vendor) can help the buyer finance (pay for) a property purchase instead of, or in addition to, a lending institution (eg a bank). Sellers who use Vendor Finance don’t need to receive payment of the price for their property in one lump sum. Buyers will be able to afford the repayments but aren’t able to qualify for a bank loan at the start. The seller does this by allowing the buyer to pay off the home over time, instead of the standard process of paying in one lump sum. The terms of the sale/purchase are agreed upon by seller and buyer. They will usually consist of an agreed repayment amount and a time period for payments to be completed. All vendor finance agreements are Contracts For Sale or Loan Agreement documents which comply with the law. Yes! Buying and selling property using vendor finance terms is governed by Conveyancing and Property Laws, and by the National Credit Code. Vendor finance has been used for as long as houses have been sold. Because it is not the “mainstream” way to buy or sell homes, it does not receive as much marketing hype as real estate agent listings and bank loans. In recent years it has become a very popular alternative to real estate agents and lending institutions. Because the law varies from state to state, you should familiarise yourself with what is legal in your area. Best to speak to a conveyancing lawyer that understands Vendor Finance! Rent To Buy, Rent To Own, Lease Option all refer to the same thing. If you are buying a home this way, you will be effectively given the opportunity to “Try Before You Buy“. Buying a Rent to Buy home means you will be able to buy at the same time as you are renting. Rent to Buy suits anyone who can afford to buy, but can’t get a loan for lack of deposit or for credit default reasons. When you buy a house without a bank loan this way, you pay rent and live in the house as if you were a regular tenant, except that this arrangement goes for an agreed period. At the end of that period, you obtain a bank loan and buy the house at a fixed price that you agreed on when you first moved in. The seller is legally obligated to sell you the house. Within this time, part of the extra money over and above rent that you pay to the seller will build up your deposit. In this time you can clear your bad credit, and build up a savings history track record. The price you eventually pay stays the same, even if the value of the house goes up, so you know exactly how much you need to borrow from the bank. An Instalment Contract is clever way to buy a house without a bank loan upfront. It is an agreement to purchase a property where the whole price is paid by instalments. It is not much different to how you would buy a TV or a sofa using credit, although the paperwork is more detailed. You are required to pay a small deposit upfront, and make regular repayments that include an interest component that is agreed upon with the seller. The Contract is governed by the National Credit Code."

{
"question": "What is an Handyman Special?",
"answer": "Some properties need renovating to make them more livable and to bring their value up. It could be painting, tiling, new carpets or polished floorboards, new fences, and even a new kitchen. Some sellers advertise “sweat equity” to indicate that they are prepared to credit an agreed list of renovations towards the deposit. This is a “Handyman Special”. The seller will determine what needs to be done, when it needs to be done, and the amount credited."
},
{
"question": "Can I buy a house without much of a deposit?",
"answer": "Yes, if the seller offers Deposit Finance. This is not a “No Banks” arrangement because you must be bank ready and have a loan approval for 80% or more of the price. If so, the seller who offers Deposit Finance will be prepared to top up some, and sometimes all of the deposit gap between the price to be paid and the bank loan. Another strategy is called the Deposit Builder. In this case the seller will help you build up a deposit over time, so you can go to a bank later on to get finance. All the while you are also paying off the house directly to the seller. As such, when you do get bank finance, your loan will be smaller because you would have already paid off some of the amount."
},
{
"question": "Are there other ways to Buy Without A Bank?",
"answer": "Yes, there are many strategies and different ways you can buy. Most sellers who advertise on this site are happy to discuss your situation with you and to make it easy for you to buy their house. Ask the seller if they can be flexible and work out a suitable solution that is tailored to your particular situation."
},
{
"question": "Will I pay market value for my house if I Buy Without A Bank?",
"answer": "Possibly yes, possibly no, because no one knows what the market value for the house will be in the future when you actually finish paying for it! The price you agree on today is the price you will pay at the end of the term. Even if the property value goes up or down, the price you agree to pay is locked in. There are many variables that need to be considered. Do your research and be sure the offer is not only fair and reasonable, but also realistic and achievable. All anyone can do is agree upon the price at the start, and agree that the price will be fixed and not go up. Because all forms of vendor finance have repayments which reduce the price, then after a while the amount owing to the seller will be less than the price at the start."
},
{
"question": "How much up front money do I need to buy a house?",
"answer": "The up front money is what you need to pay up front to receive the key to the house. Sellers will usually indicate the amount needed. It could be a percentage of the price, or a fixed amount, but in any case it will be less than the standard deposit which is 10% or 20% of the price. As a general rule, the more up front deposit you have, the easier it will be to buy a house using vendor finance, because it makes the terms easier to negotiate with the seller."
},
{
"question": "Do I need to have a clean Credit File to buy a home?",
"answer": "Minor credit blemishes such as overlooked telephone bills might be OK, but major credit blemishes such as unpaid court judgments and bankruptcies are usually too serious. You need to have a clean credit file when you borrow from a bank, and for some forms of vendor finance such as Instalment Sales and Deposit Finance. For Rent to Buy, so long as you keep a clean credit file for a minimum of 2 years, and in some cases 5 years, you can use that time to clean your credit file. You can get a free Credit Report from www.mycreditfile.com.au. Click here to speak with a Credit Repair expert."
},
{
"question": "When does the Property Title transfer to me?",
"answer": "The title to the property will transfer to you at the normal time, which is when you have made all of your payments. This time will be at the end of the agreed term of the vendor finance, or earlier if you, the buyer, re-finance (get a bank loan) to pay the balance owing on the house or sell the house."
},
{
"question": "If the seller goes bankrupt, do I lose everything?",
"answer": "No, but you will need to switch from making the payments to the seller, to making the payments to the seller’s bank. The Bankruptcy Trustee will recognise what you have paid, and will allow you to continue the payments, as long as the paperwork has been set up correctly. The seller’s bank will want to see that you have registered a Caveat on to the title, and so long as you keep making your repayments, they will be happy to allow you to live in the house. We strongly advise to use a solicitor that is familiar with this process. You can find Laywers that know about Vendor Finance here. This is great, but I do have another question. My husband and I have been renting the same property to live in Sydney for the past 20years. The owner died and the children are now selling the property from underneath us. We are now looking for another rental property in Sydney."
},
{
"question": "Can our Real Estate Agent help us find a property that will allow a Rent to Buy option?",
"answer": "It is very unlikely that a regular real estate agent will help you with a Rent To Buy. Agents usually work on commission which is payable on settlement, so they would be waiting a few years to get paid for their work!"

Now don’t confuse cloudy with unfiltered, which can have some sediment. A bad wine will be pretty evident in the aromas. If it smells like wet dog or wet cardboard, there’s a good chance your wine is faulty. Other aromas that you should on alert for is vinegar, nail polish remover, burnt rubber, cabbage or barnyard.

"question": "What Does The Year On the Label Mean?",
"answer": "This is the year the grapes were grown and harvested, not the year the wine was released. Many vineyards like to age their wines, especially reds. This gives a person an opportunity to study up on that year in that region, if they so desire. Many factors play a role in the taste of a wine, especially year to year. And one of the major factors is weather. If your bottle of wine doesn’t show a year, it usually means it’s a blended vintage, which means the wine was made from grapes from more than one year."
},
{
"question": "How Long Should I Age Wine?",
"answer": "Here’s a fact that may surprise most people! 90% of all wines in your local Liquor Store were meant to be drank in the first 3 years. Especially any wine in a clear bottle. If the bottle is clear, you should drink it within the first 3 years. You’ll see many white wines especially in your local Liquor store that are in clear bottles. And even some reds. It is a misconception that you must age wine. Some wines will mature and improve with age. Master of Wine Jancis Robinson estimates about 5% of white wine and 10% of red wine can improve with age. Wines with high level of tannins tend to improve with age. For example Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah (Shiraz) and the Italian wine Nebbiolo are wines that tend to be very tannic. Please feel free to pass along any comments and don’t hesitate to forward me your question about wine. I will do my best to answer. Thanks again for reading and sharing.

{
"question": "I got resin on my skin, how do I get it off?",
"answer": "First, wipe off as much as you can using dry paper towels, then wash well with dish-soap until you're no longer sticky. Baby oil works well, as do orange-based cleaners. Little Windows resin is not a toxic product, but it can cause irritation if you have sensitive skin. Get medical attention if you see swelling. If you get it in your eyes, flush with water for 15 minutes and get medical attention. Keep eye lids apart. If someone drinks it by mistake, give them large quantities of water and get medical attention."

{
"question": "[19.7] How can I protect derived classes from breaking when I change the internal parts of the base class?",
"answer": "[19.8] I've been told to never use protected data, and instead to always use private data with protected access functions."
},
{
"question": "[19.9] Okay, so exactly how should I decide whether to build a \"protected interface\"?",
"answer": "Inheritance is what separates abstract data type (ADT) programming from OO programming. Human beings abstract things on two dimensions: part-of and kind-of. A Ford Taurus is-a-kind-of-a Car, and a Ford Taurus has-a Engine, Tires, etc. The part-of hierarchy has been a part of software since the ADT style became relevant; inheritance adds \"the other\" major dimension of decomposition. To protect you from future changes to the base class. Derived classes do not get access to private members of a base class. This effectively \"seals off\" the derived class from any changes made to the private members of the base class. Unless you expect all your derived classes to be built by your own team, you should declare your base class's data members as private and use protected inline access functions by which derived classes will access the private data in the base class. This way the private data declarations can change, but the derived class's code won't break (unless you change the protected access functions). Whenever someone says to you, \"You should always make data private,\" stop right there it's an \"always\" or \"never\" rule, and those rules are what I call one-size-fits-all rules. The real world isn't that simple."
},
{
"question": "Here's the way I say it: if I expect derived classes, I should ask this question: who will create them?",
"answer": "If the people who will create them will be outside your team, or if there are a huge number of derived classes, then and only then is it worth creating a protected interface and using private data. If I expect the derived classes to be created by my own team and to be reasonable in number, it's just not worth the trouble: use protected data. And hold your head up, don't be ashamed: it's the right thing to do! The benefit of protected access functions is that you won't break your derived classes as often as you would if your data was protected. Put it this way: if you believe your users will be outside your team, you should do a lot more than just provide get/set methods for your private data. You should actually create another interface. You have a public interface for one set of users, and a protected interface for another set of users. But they both need an interface that is carefully designed designed for stability, usability, performance, etc. And at the end of the day, the real benefit of privatizing your data (including providing an interface that is coherent and, as much as possible, opaque) is to avoid breaking your derived classes when you change that data structure. But if your own team is creating the derived classes, and there are a reasonably small number of them, it's simply not worth the effort: use protected data. Some purists (translation: people who've never stepped foot in the real world, people who've spent their entire lives in an ivory tower, people who don't understand words like \"customer\" or \"schedule\" or \"deadline\" or \"ROI\") think that everything ought to be reusable and everything ought to have a clean, easy to use interface. Those kinds of people are dangerous: they often make your project late, since they make everything equally important. They're basically saying, \"We have 100 tasks, and I have carefully prioritized them: they are all priority 1.\" They make the notion of priority meaningless. You simply will not have enough time to make life easy for everyone, so the very best you can do is make life easy for a subset of the world. Prioritize. Select the people that matter most and spend time making stable interfaces for them. You may not like this, but everyone is not created equal; some people actually do matter more than others. We have a word for those important people. We call them \"customers.\" Three keys: ROI, ROI and ROI. Every interface you build has a cost and a benefit. Every reusable component you build has a cost and a benefit. Every test case, every cleanly structured thing-a-ma-bob, every investment of any sort. You should never invest any time or any money in any thing if there is not a positive return on that investment. If it costs your company more than it saves, don't do it! Not everyone agrees with me on this; they have a right to be wrong. For example, people who live sufficiently far from the real world act like every investment is good. After all, they reason, if you wait long enough, it might someday save somebody some time. Maybe. We hope. That whole line of reasoning is unprofessional and irresponsible. You don't have infinite time, so invest it wisely. Sure, if you live in an ivory tower, you don't have to worry about those pesky things called \"schedules\" or \"customers.\" But in the real world, you work within a schedule, and you must therefore invest your time only where you'll get good pay-back."
},
{
"question": "Back to the original question: when should you invest time in building a protected interface?",
"answer": "Answer: when you get a good return on that investment. If it's going to cost you an hour, make sure it saves somebody more than an hour, and make sure the savings isn't \"someday over the rainbow.\" If you can save an hour within the current project, it's a no-brainer: go for it. If it's going to save some other project an hour someday maybe we hope, then don't do it. And if it's in between, your answer will depend on exactly how your company trades off the future against the present. The point is simple: do not do something that could damage your schedule. (Or if you do, make sure you never work with me; I'll have your head on a platter.) Investing is good if there's a pay-back for that investment. Don't be naive and childish; grow up and realize that some investments are bad because they, in balance, cost more than they return."

"question": "Q: WHAT TYPE OF CONDITIONS CAN CAUSE DRY EYE ISSUES?",
"answer": "A: A condition that is also called “lazy eye”; amblyopia is a condition where vision in one or both eyes does not develop properly during childhood. Amblyopia is a common problem in babies and young children. Because a child’s vision develops within the first few years of life, it is very important to diagnose and treat amblyopia as early as possible. If left untreated, a child with amblyopia will be unable to develop normal, healthy vision. A: The clear lens of the eye sits inside the eye behind the colored iris. This lens changes shape to focus light onto the retina which allows you to see. When people are young, the lens is soft and flexible and changes shape easily. This flexibility makes it possible to focus on objects both close-up and far away. After people reach the age 40, the lens becomes more rigid and cannot change shape as easily. This rigidity makes it harder to read, thread a needle, or do other close-up tasks. Unfortunately there is no way to stop or reverse the normal aging process that causes presbyopia. Presbyopia can be corrected or treated with eyeglasses, contact lenses or surgery."
},
{
"question": "Q: CAN I SAMPLE THE CONTACTS FIRST?",
"answer": "A: Before a patient gets a prescription they try out the contacts using samples. Our providers do not write a prescription for anyone until we see the sample lens on their eye and know that they are completely satisfied with their vision and their comfort. The technician spends time with them making sure that the patient can put them in and remove them correctly. Occasionally it will take two or three visits to get a contact that is just right, but we’re willing to do whatever it takes to make sure that our patients are happy and satisfied."
},
{
"question": "Q: WHAT DO I NEED TO DO TO BE PREPARED FOR MY EXAM IF I WEAR CONTACT LENSES?",
"answer": "A: Please wear your contact lenses to your eye exam and bring information on the brand and prescription of the lenses. This will expedite your visit and allow us to serve you better. Please bring or have the names of any contact lens solutions you are using. Be aware that most insurance companies do not cover contact lenses and there may be an additional charge for evaluation and fitting of lenses. Contact lens evaluations take 15-20 minutes and may include corneal imaging, refraction of your contact lens and observations of the lenses on your eyes. We offer a wide range of contact lenses at competitive prices."
},
{
"question": "Q: CAN I BUY MY CONTACT LENSES DIRECTLY FROM EYE CARE ASSOCIATES?",
"answer": "A: Our patients truly experience the benefits of buying contacts from us. Our pricing is extremely competitive; even when compared with internet pricing. For our patients’ convenience we maintain an extensive sample inventory so patients can try new contacts."
},
{
"question": "Q: WHAT IS THE LATEST IN CONTACT LENS TECHNOLOGY?",
"answer": "A: Many people are walking around wearing contact lenses made of old, outdated materials. Even when patients come in and say they have no problems at all with their current contacts, the doctors at Eye Care Associates ask them to rate their comfort level from 0-10. And when people say that they are at a 7 or 8 – we know that there is a good chance that they could benefit greatly from the latest innovations in contact lenses. Our providers are able to choose the best contact lens for each patient’s unique requirements. Silicone Hydrogel daily disposable lenses have been available for over four years but many patients still don’t know about them. Many of our patients sit in front of a computer all day in a dry office. These very comfortable contact lenses let all the oxygen through which keeps the cornea healthy. Silicone hydrogel lenses have truly been a major advance in the industry. They are also available as multifocals which is a great benefit to many patients. Our contact lens inventory includes bifocals, silicone hydrogel, contacts for astigmatism and a wide variety of daily disposables. A: Monovision is a technique that allows patients to be able to see far away with one eye and near with the other. The overwhelming majority of the patients that we see in our Medical Arts office sit at a computer for a good portion of the day. They spend much of the day using their eyes for intermediate and close distances. Monovision contacts can be a great option for these patients. One of the doctors at our practice has been wearing them for more than 15 years and is very happy with the way that they correct his vision. Some patients in their 50s and 60s who have already had laser vision correction still have to carry readers around with them. One way to solve that issue is to have the patient try using just one contact lens for near vision (monovision). Many patients who have tried this have been delighted with the results. ©2019 Eye Care Associates, P.A. All rights reserved."

"question": "What are the cake toppers and gifts made from?",
"answer": "I use a variety of polymer clay products mostly Fimo and Sculpey. They are soft craft materials that once fired harden to a plastic like substance. I also use small amounts of wire, beads, paint, etc., where required."
},
{
"question": "How long will the toppers/gifts last?",
"answer": "As they harden to a plastic like substance, with the correct handing they will last a lifetime. As with any ornament, they should be handled carefully and not dropped! Small breakages can be fixed with super glue."
},
{
"question": "How big are the toppers?",
"answer": "This really depends on what you require. Standard figures are about 14 cm high, with the base for a single figure about 5 cm wide and for a double figure about 10 cm wide. However, your concept may not fit into a standard category and will be a unique size. All toppers will be able to be displayed on top of a cake if that is your plan, unless otherwise stated."
},
{
"question": "Are the toppers only for displaying on a cake?",
"answer": "No! Although they can be called cake toppers this is perhaps a misnomer. Due to their unique design and the fact that many people commission them for a special occasion they are often used to sit on top of a cake. However, they are a great individual stand alone gift, just as you would purchase any gift for a loved one, friend or event. I am going to display the topper on a cake."
},
{
"question": "How will I fix it to the cake?",
"answer": "If the cake is not going to be moved after the topper is displayed on it, it is not necessary to fix the topper on. However, if the cake will be moved or you wish a bit more security that the topper will remain in place use a small amount of icing sugar mixed with water to make a paste and use a small amount on top of the cake to ‘glue’ the topper into place. Please fill out an enquiry form on the Contact page and I will check availability for what you require. Alternatively you can email me and I will contact you to discuss what you would like to order so that I can assess fully the time required to complete your order and provide you with a quote. Once you are happy to place an order, a 50% deposit is required to secure your date..\nTo secure a date I require an approximate idea of what you would like e.g. how many figures, any props you would like, any unusual poses, etc. Approximately 6 weeks before your event date I will send you a questionnaire that will confirm the finer details of your order, e.g dress style, hair colour and style, etc."
},
{
"question": "Do you just make personalised cake toppers?",
"answer": "No, I make a variety of items including bespoke ornaments and unusual gifts. Please visit our gallery to see some of the different items we have made in the past. Contact us if you have any new ideas or would like help with designing something special."

"question": "Will the hosts interrupt their unsuccessful line?",
"answer": "Pesaro possess the fifteenth place of the Italian basketball SerieA. The hosts have four wins. The last of them dates on November 25. There Matteo Boniciolli’s guys beat Virtus Bologna with a small advantage of three points (89:86). Then they lost in six consecutive matches. They have been beaten three times, both home and away. Totally, they have ten defeats in their record. Their unique winning streak counted three games. Torino are fourteenth in the table with the same marks as Pesaro. They have four wins and ten losses too. In Winter the guests have two black series of three games. The last one is still opened. From December 26 to present Paolo Galbiati’s men have been beaten by Felice Scandone, Vanoli Cremona and Cantu. Their last victory dates on December 23. They beat Pistoia Basket at home 86:80. All six H2H meetings in their history ended in favor of Auxilium Torino. In spite of Torino’s successful H2H history against Pesaro we believe the hosts will interrupt their lost line using their home advantage and public support. On this page you will find the prediction for the BASKETBALL match of Pesaro vs Auxilium Torino of the Serie A, Italy.

"question": "How many counselling sessions do I need?",
"answer": "A. It depends. Some people find adequate peace of mind after a couple of months of sessions with a counsellor, others have a lot of things to share and need longer. Some people come regularly at first and and then come back for a session every now and then. Others may work with a counsellor for a year or more. A big factor in therapeutic change is the open and trusting relationship you have with your counsellor, and your own sense of what you want to achieve. That can take a few sessions to establish. Everyone is different. Six sessions is generally accepted to be a minimum space for any kind of therapeutic work. It is because longer is often required that I offer some discount for mid term and long term work. Q."

I never keep notes unless you ask me to, in which case anonymous (coded) notes will kept in a locked filing cabinet. You can ask to see them any time. If there is a risk to safety for yourself or anyone else, I will bring this up with you and we can discuss whether anyone else, like a doctor, might need to know. Q."

{
"question": "Do I really need to see a counsellor or therapist?",
"answer": "I’ve never had mental health problems. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with me, I just feel awful. A. Counselling and psychotherapy is for anyone who feels they might benefit from talking to a professional about the problems they are facing. Sometimes issues might seem small on the surface but then start to feel overwhelming as they can affect other parts of our lives without us realising it straightaway. We may notice a change in our sleep pattern and/or appetite. We may feel increasing mood swings, or lack energy; perhaps we are finding it difficult to focus at work or around our friends and family. We may feel less pleasure in the things that we have previously enjoyed and start not to feel like ourselves anymore. These are all early warning signs that tell us something isn’t quite right and it is at this point that we either hope things will start to get better soon or reach out for help. Early intervention is key to feeling better about ourselves sooner, as often issues escalate into bigger issues without help and support. Q."
},
{
"question": "Do I need to know anything about counselling or psychology?",
"answer": "A. No. In fact sometimes it’s better if you don’t – then you can stay with your own experience without diverting into theories. Q."
},
{
"question": "Can you tell me how to fix my problems?",
"answer": "A. I can’t, and wouldn’t tell you how to fix anything. I will help you to find the way to take care of your problems, and help you find your own solutions if that’s what you want to do. Q."
},
{
"question": "What is mindfulness meditiation?",
"answer": "A. Mindfulness can help to stay in the present, or to come back to the body after a dissociated experience. Basic techniques, if practised often, can help you to relax, and help stay grounded and in touch with yourself when you need to, or when you feel threatened. Some meditation can increase your self awareness which can help with counselling. I can offer simple, non-religious mindfulness meditation techniques that I have learned over the last 25 years. I have received teachings on meditation from Buddhist masters including The Dalai Lama, The Karmapa, Lama Zopa Rinpoche, Mingyur Rinpoche and others, as well as respected Zen and Theravadin teachers, and Mindfulness as taught in western culture. I don’t teach Buddhism to clients. Q."
},
{
"question": "What is Skype / webcam counselling?",
"answer": "A. An increasingly popular option for those who can’t make face-to-face counselling sessions is Skype. Skype is a free computer program that enables you to video chat free in real time (synchronous) over the Internet. The software is easy to download. If your computer doesn’t have a webcam or microphone they are relatively inexpensive. The benefit of Skype is that you are able to physically see your counsellor, a factor that people sometimes miss during e-therapy, online-chat or telephone counselling. As with other digital methods, Skype allows you to attend a counselling session from the comfort of your own location anywhere in the world."

"question": "What sort of licensing model do Actipro's products use?",
"answer": "Our products are licensed by developer, and all licenses are perpetual. A developer license is required for each developer working on a project that uses an Actipro product, whether they directly work with the product or not, since the entire project benefits by using the Actipro product. Developer license - Grants a single developer the right to use the licensed product in production applications and to include any files marked as redistributable with the applications. Volume discounts are available when ordering more than one developer license. Site license - Provides developer licenses to all developers in an organization at a single physical location, such as an office building. Enterprise license - Provides developer licenses to all developers in an organization at any of the organization's physical locations. All new licenses (excluding media) include a free subscription for priority support and year of free upgrades. Expired subscriptions can be renewed at discounted prices to continue these benefits. Please see our Subscription Renewal Policy for more information on how to renew subscriptions."
},
{
"question": "What sort of licensing model do Actipro's add-ons use?",
"answer": "An add-on is a special component that adds functionality to another one of our products. While several of our add-ons are included free with their related product, some such as the SyntaxEditor .NET Languages Add-on are premium add-ons and are sold separately from their related product and containing bundles. See each product's documentation or the add-on's web page to see which add-ons are free and which are sold separately. Premium add-ons are licensed to developers exclusively as Enterprise licenses, but for a very reasonable price. The proper number of licenses for the add-on's related product must still be obtained. After that, any developers licensed for the add-on's related product will also be licensed to use the add-on. Please note that you do NOT require an Enterprise license of the add-on's related product to purchase an add-on license. An add-on's Enterprise license may be purchased even if you only have a single developer license for the add-on's related product. Yes, source code is offered for our component products via an optional Blueprint license (described above)."
},
{
"question": "Do versions have to stay in sync when using multiple products from a platform?",
"answer": "Yes, if you are using multiple individual control or add-on products from a platform, then you must keep the versions licensed and used in sync, at least when they are used within the same app. For instance, say you licensed SyntaxEditor and a related .NET Languages Add-on. Then a year later, you wish to renew your SyntaxEditor subscription so that you can obtain new features being added, however you don't feel that you need any new features for the .NET Languages Add-on. You still must renew the add-on as well since the versions must be kept in sync. The SyntaxEditor add-ons have features that are based on a specific version of SyntaxEditor and other core libraries and thus older add-ons won't work properly with newer versions of their associated products. Please see our Subscription Renewal Policy for more information if you have licensed individual control or add-on products at different times and would like to sync up their subscription dates. Each product contains a full End-User License Agreement (EULA) contained within its ZIP file. If your legal team needs to review the EULA before purchase, please download the desired product's evaluation and examine the EULA within the ZIP file."
},
{
"question": "Are multiple licenses required for developers that use multiple computers?",
"answer": "We license per developer, not per machine. If a developer works for a single organization on both a desktop and laptop, then a single developer license is sufficient. However if the developer uses an Actipro product for work as well on the developer's own personal projects, then two developer licenses are required since there are two organizations involved."
},
{
"question": "Are licenses required for build machines?",
"answer": "Build machines do not require their own license. Since our products are developer-licensed, you only need a license for each developer on your project."
},
{
"question": "Are there any run-time licensing fees or redistribution royalties?",
"answer": "No, there are no run-time licensing fees or redistribution royalties for our products. As long as you own the proper amount of developer licenses, you are all set."
},
{
"question": "Where are product prices listed?",
"answer": "The Pricing page shows all of our product prices, including discounts for volume license orders. Yes, while we have extremely competitive prices to start with, we also provide large \"volume\" discounts for customers who purchase multiple licenses in an order. Our tiered pricing model provides increased percentage discounts off the normal price of each license based on the number of licenses that are ordered, allowing for up to 40% off each license. For larger development teams, Site and Enterprise license options are available. A Site license can provide significant savings when many developers at a single location will be using a product. An Enterprise license can provide significant savings when many developers at multiple locations will be using a product. Yes, we offer several suites and bundles that combine together various individual products. In some cases, these bundles can provide a savings of up to 60% off over purchasing the products individually."
},
{
"question": "Can I sync up dates for license subscriptions ordered at different times?",
"answer": "Yes, we can sync up subscriptions at discounted prices. Please see our Subscription Renewal Policy for more information."

"answer": "The orange star ratings in Google Shopping, Google AdWords, and Google Search Partners, are displayed in Google Seller Rating Extensions."
},
{
"question": "What are Google Seller Rating Extensions and where do they come from?",
"answer": "Seller Rating Extensions make it easier for potential customers to identify highly-rated companies when they're using Google services.

"question": "Fire Codes that apply to fire protection at my restaurant?",
"answer": "You may also contact the N.F.P.A. directly at 1-617-770-3000 to obtain copies of fire codes that may be applicable to your location. Q."
},
{
"question": "What is the UL-300 specification?",
"answer": "Underwriters Laboratories (UL) has adopted a new fire-testing standard (UL 300) to improve fire protection in restaurant cooking areas. Certain fire suppression systems currently installed in restaurant cooking areas may not provide adequate fire protection due to changes in commercial cooking methods. The two changes in commercial food preparation techniques that have had the most impact on fire protection in recent years are the use of vegetable cooking oils for frying and the use of energy efficient appliances. The standard type of oil used to fry foods is now vegetable oils, which burns at a higher temperature than animal fats and creates fires that are more difficult to extinguish. Energy efficient cooking appliances such as highly insulated fryers help reduce fuel consumption and improve cooking times by maintaining a more consistent temperature. They also help keep cooking oils and metal appliances hotter longer and make fire extinguishment more difficult. The new UL 300 standard now considers cooking appliance design, cooking agent ignition characteristics and worst-case fire suppression scenarios. Appliances affected by the UL 300 test protocol changes include fryers, griddles, ranges, char broilers (gas radiant, electric, lava rock), and woks. The UL 300 standard did not change plenum, hood, and duct test protocols and did not affect chain broilers, upright broilers, and charcoal or mesquite cooking methods. Only wet chemical fire suppression systems, with their increased supply of extinguishing agent, were effective in extinguishing UL 300 test fires. Dry chemical suppression systems and water spray devices were not effective. Testing by fire equipment manufacturers showed that while dry chemical systems could knock down the UL 300 test fires, the fires would re-flash and continue to burn due to a lack of cooling. No listings, to date, have been obtained for dry chemical systems tested to the UL 300 standard. Some manufacturers have even established dates when repair parts will no longer be available for their older dry chemical systems. Also, testing by the Fire Equipment Manufacturers Association (FEMA) showed that water spray devices took a little over six minutes to extinguish a test fire, versus three seconds for wet chemical fire suppression systems. Q."
},
{
"question": "What are some of the reasons that a fire system would need to be upgraded?",
"answer": "There can be several reasons you may be required to upgrade. The most common reason is that the system does not meet the UL-300 standard. The highlight of this standard is the move from a Dry Chemical extinguishing agent to the currently used Wet Chemical. You can tell if your system is not compliant by looking for the UL-300 listed stamp on the system components. Q."
},
{
"question": "What are some of the parts of a fire system?",
"answer": "The most common parts are the system cylinder, mechanical control head, manual release, heat detectors, gas valve, grease tight seals and the nozzles. Q."
},
{
"question": "What is involved in a fire system inspection?",
"answer": "The steps involved vary based on the time of service and the type of system. The steps below are for a typical single tank restaurant system. Check that the restaurant equipment has not changed. The nozzles and their placements are specific to each piece of equipment. Inspect the system for mechanical damage. Inspect the system for grease accumulation on nozzles or inside fire system piping and actuation lines. Disconnect the control head to prevent actuation during the next steps of the inspection. Remove old fire system links and replace with a test link to prepare for a system test. Depending on jurisdiction and type of system, Install test cylinder filled with air and actuation cartridge. Remove and discard old actuation cartridge. Perform system test by cutting the test link. The technician will now verify that air flowed thru all of the nozzles, that the gas valve cut off gas to the cooking equipment, and that the actuation line is clear of grease and functioning properly. Install new actuation cartridge, links and nozzles where necessary. Inspect cylinder for proper compliance with hydrostatic test dates, and that it is maintaining the proper pressure. The technician will also check the cylinder for visible damage. Remove tank from system and perform hydrostatic testing. After hydro-testing refill cylinder with new wet chemical extinguishing agent.

Inspect the extinguisher for visible signs of damage. Inspect the date of manufacture. If the extinguisher manufacture date is 6 years or older then the extinguisher must have a full six-year service. If the extinguisher is over 12 years of age, then it must be hydro-tested. Blow out the extinguisher hose or nozzle to remove any potential obstructions. Check the weight of and charge level of the extinguisher. Disassemble extinguisher and discard old fire extinguishing agent. Inspect the extinguisher cylinder for internal damage. Replace all O-rings, the valve stem, and the hose. Recharge the extinguisher with new agent. Check for any leaks using leak detection agent. Q."

{
"question": "My restaurant hood is not removing smoke, what could be wrong?",
"answer": "There are several factors that influence the performance of a kitchen exhaust system. Each hood system should be designed based on the cooking hazards, room size, air conditioning system, local and national fire codes, and the length of the duct runs. In a properly installed system, excessive build up of smoke in the kitchen can generally be the result of excessive grease build-up in the duct, a leak in the duct system, make up air failure, or fan failures. If your system is not exhausting properly, please contact us and we will be happy to help. Q."
},
{
"question": "Why can’t I do the restaurant hood steam cleaning myself?",

"question": "The technician just inspected my fire extinguishers and system and put today’s date, why?",
"answer": "The tags used by Interstate Fire & Safety have been certified by N.A.F.E.D. and most A.H.J.’s. The technician punches out the date of inspection as required by local codes. These tags expire after one year for fire extinguisher inspections and after 6 months for restaurant fire systems. Q."

This is done using Federal Department of Transportation certified testing equipment. Interstate Fire & Safety performs hydro testing using our equipment located at our Harrison, NY location. Q."
},
{
"question": "What is the life expectancy of my fire extinguisher?",
"answer": "Generally, a properly serviced and maintained fire extinguisher can last as long as the manufacturer is willing to supply parts for it.

"answer": "Deferred Disposition is a pre-trial diversion program that is sometimes offered as a plea bargain agreement in Austin Municipal Court and the Travis County J.P. courts for Class C misdemeanors. Deferred Disposition is very similar to Deferred Prosecution except that (1) the deferral period is typically much shorter (2) the charge is not formally dismissed until the deferral period and any conditions are successfully completed and (3) the defendant is required to pay a fine disguised as “court costs.” As with Deferred Prosecution, successful completion of Deferred Disposition leads to expunction eligibility."

},
{
"question": "Do I need to have a firmware update?",
"answer": "I just recently upgraded my cell phone to a new cable supported cell phone and purchased a cable for that cell phone to use with my Dock-N-Talk™."
},
{
"question": "How do I set it up?",
"answer": "A. With your Dock-N-Talk™, we included a Quick Setup Guide to help you determine how to setting up the Dock-N-Talk™ will best suit your situation. The guide also has instructions for each of the basic setups that are included. There are many ways to setup the Dock-N-Talk™ and if none of the solutions provided to you are of any help, please call our Technical Team at (212) 481 - 6166. We will be happy to assist you. A. When you use the Dock-N-Talk™, you can treat all your calls like they are a wire line call. If you are using a two-line phone, simply put the call on hold and answer the other incoming call. If you are using the alternative set-up with single-line phones, you would have to set the current phone down, and go to another phone which is set to work off the Dock-N-Talk™. Q. I own a Dock-N-Talk™ and am planning on changing my cell phone."
},
{
"question": "Will my new phone work with the Dock-N-Talk™?",
"answer": "A. As long as your new cell phone is listed on our Cell Phone Compatibility List, it will work with the Dock-N-Talk™. However, even if it is listed, you may still need to either purchase a new connector cable or Bluetooth module, and/or you may need to have a firmware upgrade done on your Dock-N-Talk™. Q."
},
{
"question": "How do the Nextel Push-To-Talk™ features work with the Dock-N-Talk™?",
"answer": "A. Activating Push-To-Talk™ - Phone Labs' Flash-To-Talk™ feature allows the Nextel Push-To-Talk™ service to be used from any regular corded or cordless telephone through the Dock-N-Talk™. On an iDEN cell phone, the Push-To-Talk™ (PTT) feature is activated by use of a special button. When using the Dock-N-Talk™, the Flash button on your regular corded or cordless telephone activates the PTT functionality. The main difference is that, unlike the PTT button, you do not hold down the Flash button while you are speaking. You need to press Flash again when you begin speaking, and again when you finish. Q. When I plug my Dock-N-Talk™ into my telephone outlet, I keep getting a red-light."
},
{
"question": "What is going on?",
"answer": "A. The LED on the Dock-N-Talk™ is for more than just lighting up. It is a Status indicator that we use to tell us when certain conditions occur. The red-light that occurs when you plug your Dock-N-Talk™ into the telephone outlet is caused by connecting the Dock-N-Talk™ to an active wire line. Even if your telephone company has shut off your telephone service, they are still providing power to the telephone line itself. You can either switch to the second line in your home (if its available and not connected to the phone company), or you can physically disconnect your line wiring from the phone company. You can do this or you can hire a professional to do it for you. Afterwards, you should no longer get a red-light on the Dock-N-Talk™. A. The most common cause for issues with a noisy or crackly Bluetooth connection is something in the nearby area operating on the 2.4Ghz frequency, usually a 2.4Ghz cordless phone or a wireless router (Wi-Fi or 802.11b/g) connection. Bluetooth also operates at a 2.4Ghz frequency and is a very low powered device. Other devices operating at that same frequency tend to overpower the Bluetooth signal and cause interference in the connection. Some 5.8Ghz cordless phones are hybrids that also operate at 2.4Ghz and will cause problems. Try to keep other 2.4Ghz devices as far away as possible from your Bluetooth cell phone and the Dock-N-Talk™. Cordless phones that operate in other frequencies such as 900Mhz, pure 5.8Ghz or DECT phones will not cause a problem. A. When you are pairing your Dock-N-Talk™ with Bluetooth to Bluetooth enabled cell phone, the Dock-N-Talk™ is the \"Find Me\" device, and your cell phone is the \"search\" device. You would select \"Search for New Device\" or however your cell phone states the option. A. You should select either \"Hands free\" or \"Car-Kit\", as the Dock-N-Talk™ will not work properly on \"Headset\" settings. Q. I just recently upgraded my cell phone to a Bluetooth cell phone and purchased a Bluetooth Module for use with my Dock-N-Talk™."
},
{
"question": "Why wont my Dock-N-Talk™ work properly with my new phone?",
"answer": "A. Many times new cell phones will require a firmware update to the Dock-N-Talk™ to support all the features of your new phone. Please contact Phone Labs Technical Support at (212) 481 - 6166 for a firmware update. Q. I just recently upgraded my cell phone and purchased a Phone Labs cable for that cell phone to use with my Dock-N-Talk™."
},
{
"question": "Why won't the Dock-N-Talk™ connect to my new cell phone?",
"answer": "A. This issue is usually due to needing to have updated firmware for your Dock-N-Talk™. The Bluetooth portion of the pairing is working fine (which is why the Blue LED went solid), however, the Dock-N-Talk™ programming does not recognize the connection type. Please call the Phone Labs Technical Support Team at (212) 481 - 6166 and they will assist you in having your firmware updated. Q."
},
{
"question": "How does the Intercom feature on the Dock-N-Talk™ work?",
"answer": "A. The Dock-N-Talk™ has a unique feature of also being able to be used as an in-home intercom system. To use this, simply hold down the \"Ringer\" button on the Dock-N-Talk™ for a little over a second and the telephones in the home will start ringing. You will notice that the ring is distinctly longer than a normal phone ringing. Also, on newer versions of the Dock-N-Talk™, the Caller ID screen on the telephone (if available) will say \"INTERCOM\". After the phone rings, simply pick up the phone line after it connects to the other home phones being picked up, and begin talking like a normal phone call. A. This issue is caused by the firmware for the Dock-N-Talk™ needing to be upgraded to support the new Bluetooth Module. The Dock-N-Talk™ is beginning the pairing process but it cannot communicate properly to the new Bluetooth Module. Please email or call the Phone Labs Technical Support team at (212) 481 - 6166 and the will assist you in having your firmware updated."

"answer": "Defective products recalled because they caused death or serious injury in recent years include automobiles, children’s products and toys, household appliances and fixtures, construction job site machinery and home structure materials. When products such as these fail as a result of defective design or manufacturing defects, they can cause catastrophic injuries such as quadriplegia, paraplegia, brain injuries, limb loss and even wrongful death."
},
{
"question": "What are some examples of common defective product claims?",
"answer": "There are many types of defective product claims, however, the most common types of defective products that injure workers are defective power tools and defective machinery. The main ways that machinery and tools can be defective are: 1) by having unguarded moving parts that can pull workers into them resulting in degloving injuries and/or amputations; 2) by having inadequate emergency stop mechanisms that would allow workers to prevent serious injury if clothing or hands are being pulled into a machine; 3) by having inadequate or missing warnings that would make workers aware of the dangers of the product they were using."
},
{
"question": "What items should they keep and how should they document their claim?",
"answer": "If you are injured by a product, do not throw it out, sell it or alter it in any way. It is evidence, and a failure to properly preserve it could result in problems in any resulting lawsuit. The Consumer Products Safety Commission reports that deaths, injuries and property damage caused by consumer products cost Americans more than $700 billion every year. If you or a loved one has been injured because of a defective product, talk to a product liability lawyer at our law offices in New York City. We haves decades of experience in holding manufacturers accountable for dangerous and defective products, and have helped many victims and their families receive compensation for injuries caused by defective products."
},
{
"question": "Who is responsible for product safety?",
"answer": "The manufacturers, distributors and sellers are responsible for the safety of their products and for warning consumers of any dangers associated with those products. Products can be defective because of defects in design, defective manufacturing, incorrect or incomplete instructions, or failure to warn of dangers and/or failure to live up to a warranty."
},
{
"question": "How can manufacturers, distributors and sellers be held responsible?",
"answer": "Product liability is generally considered a strict liability tort. This means that under product liability law, a defendant can be liable when it is shown that the product is defective. It is irrelevant whether the manufacturer or supplier exercised great care in designing or manufacturing the product. If there is a defect in the product that causes harm, the manufacturer or supplier may be found liable for it. For more than 50 years, the law offices of Bonina & Bonina, P.C. has represented clients who have been injured by defective products.

"question": "Has the piano been tuned frequently, or was the last tuning the first one in many years?",
"answer": "Other factors incude the amount of use the piano gets, how well the tuner sets the tuning pins, the type of repetoire that is played, the severity of humidity changes in its environment, the condition of the piano, the torque on the tuning pins, and the tolerance level of the player to out of tune notes. Generally speaking it may take several months for most people to hear that their piano is going out of tune, although the process is ongoing due to the above listed factors. To understand why a piano goes out of tune, it is first necessary to remember that the instrument is alway under stress. The 230 or so strings are stretched at average tensions of 100 to 200 pounds each, so the cast iron plate along with the wooden frame carries a tension load of 18-20 tons. This is the reason why a piano that hasn't been tuned in years will be quite flat in pitch. The tension of the strings will want to equalize themselves at a lower tension. The soundboard is fastened within the piano frame with nowhere to go and thus is sensitive to changes of humidity and temperature. In dry conditions , the moisture in the soundboard passes off, and the board shrinks, the strings have less tension exerted on them by the soundboard resulting in a drop of pitch. The opposite occurs, of course in moister conditions. This wouldn't be so bad if all the notes would move equally out of tune. However strings that pass near the centre of the soundboard can move much more. This is because the degree of movement is more pronounced in the centre than on the edges. This is quite apparent when playing wide intervals like P5ths and P8ths across the bass/tenor break. High treble strings because of their short length will go out of tune quicker than some longer strings. This flexing of the soundboard is a continual process, not just a seasonal one. The soundboard is slowly rising and falling short distances each day and therefore suffering variations in its ability to hold the strings up to proper pitch. So a piano will start to go out of tune soon after a piano tuner leaves. However, as mentioned before, this is not too noticeable for awhile. When a piano string is raised to pitch, the additional load on the piano's structure causes the pitch of previously adjusted string to change somewhere in the neighbourhood of 1/3 to 1/4 of the amount it was raised by. Thus the only way to achieve a fine tuning on a piano is to have the tension of all strings very close to their proper place. This is why something called a pitch raise must be done on a piano that is not close to pitch due to lack of tuning or humidity shifts. A pitch raise is basically a quick tuning pass to bring the strings close to pitch where a fine tuning can be done."

{
"question": "when should i tune my piano next?",
"answer": "It all depends on the combination of how fast the piano goes out of tune, how much out of tuneness the ear can handle, and on one's budget. Ideally it's best to tune the piano every six months."
},
{
"question": "What can I do to keep my piano in good tune?",
"answer": "As you can guess the best way to keep a piano in tune is through frequent tunings and a stable environment , temperature and humidity wise. If your piano is going out of tune quite badly, it's best to examine humidity conditions in your house. A humidifier can be installed on the furnance or a humidity control system can be installed in the piano. Notice I'm talking about lack of moisture since I deal with pianos on the Canadian Prairies. We really don't have a problem with excessive moisture unless there's a flood! The best humidity level for wood is 42% relative humidity. 15% on either side is acceptable. To track humidity changes in your home, a relatively inexpensive hygrometer can be purchased. The important thing to remember about a stable enivironment for the piano, is that it not only keeps the piano in more acceptable tune but more importantly it helps protect all the wooden parts, and glue joints. Regulation is the adjustment of the moving parts within a piano to compensate for wear, the compacting and settling of cloth, felt and bucksins, as well as dimensional changes in wood and wood parts due to changes in humidity. If you notice a deterioration of the piano's response in regards to poor legato touch, decreased dynamic range,uneven chords, loss of subtlety in phrasing and an inablility to play quick passages or even repetitions, the piano is probably in need of regulation or you are in need of practice. I say it's best to blame the instrument! Some visual clues include an uneven key and hammer line. the action- mechanical part of the piano that transfers the motion of the fingers on the keys to the hammers that strike the strings. It is composed of over 9,000 parts which require adjustment to critical tolerances to be able to respond properly to a pianist's will. the trapwork- the system of levers, dowels and springs that connect the pedals to the action affecting sustain and dynamics. the damper system- stops the vibration of the string when you release the key and is controlled by the key and pedal systems. Frequency and type of regulation is dependent upon amount of use, climatic conditions and the quality and age of the piano, and the wishes of the player. In an upright piano, there are 44 steps in a full regulation. In a grand, there are 54 steps in a full regulation. Voicing can be defined as tone building. Most people will think of voicing as adjusting the tone of the hammer. There are many other factors that will influence the tone of the piano, such as the condition of the soundboard, the design of the piano, the regulation of the action, and the condition of the strings However to keep this brief, attention will be solely on the hammer. Piano hammers wear through prolonged use and the felt is flattened, compacted,and grooved from hitting the strings resulting in a harsh tone. To achieve a proper sound the hammer must be egg shaped. Worn hammers are reshaped by filing away the outer layers of felt to bring back the original shape. There is no need to replace hammers unless filing has been done over many times and the hammer is much smaller and cannot produce an acceptable tone."
},
{
"question": "How can you tell the piano needs voicing?",
"answer": "Voicing can be likened to tuning as an ongoing process. It changes continuously. In most concert tuning situations when I have to check the piano in between rehearsals, I can easily spend more time voicing the piano than tuning it. This is because the artist can play so forcefully making certain notes of the piano sound harsher than their neighbours."
},
{
"question": "Can I tune my own piano?",
"answer": "Tuning actually is more difficult than it appears to be. Most technicians say that it isn't until they tuned at least a thousand pianos, that they begin to tune well. Even with the use of computer tuning devices and programs, the tuner must manipulate the tuning pin properly in order for the string to stay in tune. This is perhaps the most difficult part of the tuning process. It's not rocket science, but it takes much practice and time to achieve. It's best to place the piano away from sources of heat such as hot air registers. The piano should also be placed away from direct sunlight. In the past, piano owners were advised not to place the piano by an outside facing wall. However, with modern insulation, this does not present a problem."
},
{
"question": "What piano make is the best ?",
"answer": "This question is as difficult to answer. Just like any other product where there are many competitors, there are a wide variety of choices to suit a wide variety of preferences, and budgets. It is best to try to play as many pianos as possible. Try to determine what tone, and touch you want out of piano. Talk to music teachers and serious pianists about their own preferences. Try some of the links listed in the link page of this site. There are links to many piano manufacturers and other related sites."
},
{
"question": "What things should I look out for when buying a used piano?",
"answer": "This question could take a lot of space to answer! A similar analogy would be if you were interested in buying a used car. If you are familiar with the workings of the car, and have the equipment to perform some basic tests, then you should be able to judge the condition of the vehicle fairly accurately. Same with the piano. Pianos are machines. They get worse as they age, and they may prematurely age in a bad environment. It's probably best in my opinion to have a technician appraise the piano. This can save money and headaches in the future. Of course, being a technician, I'll advise this! If you want to go it alone, there is one book I would recomend you buy or borrow from the library before you start looking at pianos: The Piano Book by Larry Fine. This book is also recommended for people buying a new piano or for those interested in knowing more about their instrument and how to maintain it properly. There is one additional thing to be aware of when buying a used piano, particularily a used Yamaha piano. Some dealers in North American have imported used Yamaha pianos from Japan and other parts of Asia. They are referred by technicans as \"wet\" or \"grey market\" piano.s The wood in these pianos have not been dried to North American export levels. The piano is also used to a much more humid environment than central North America, and many of these pianos have been heavily used in institutions without any replacement of parts. The result is that these instruments deteriorate fairly quickly. I've included a link below which talks about these pianos in more detail. You can also use this site to check to see if the piano you're buying is a North American market Yamaha or not."
},
{
"question": "Why does a piano go out of tune after a move?",
"answer": "There are two things that happen to the piano during and after a move. When a piano is moved, especially up and down stairs, its major structural parts will be flexed. Also the wood will adjust to the different environments it will be subjected to during the move. Each house will have a different humidity and temperature which will affect the tuning. It's best to wait about two weeks after the move to tune the piano again."

"question": "What are the benefits of Home Educating?",
"answer": "Being able to teach when you want, gives way more flexibility than mainstream school, therefore it is easier for the parents/parents to fit learning around work and other commitments. Being able to take family holidays while other kids are at school can save a small fortune in the usual over-inflated peak time costs. Unless you run a home-based business, it is common for one parent/guardian to be the Home Educator, usually for financial reasons. Kids learn at different paces and have preferred ways of learning, from books, visual, and hands-on learning. Having the time to find out how your child prefers to learn can pay dividends. One thing I have never agreed on is school being brought into the home environment. Home is for family and friends time. Generally, a child being Home Educated will have a much shorter day than they would at school as they can absorb more information than in a classroom of 25 – 30 children and can get the work done they would normally be given as homework. Think how much time you have spent on the school run and all the frustration that goes with it. Home educating will allow you to avoid the pickup and drop-off peak times, allowing allow you to come and go as you please and avoiding the busy traffic times. There is no legal requirement to follow the national curriculum subjects. How often have we commented to friends that we never use the subjects we were taught at school?. Home educating allows you to pick your own timetable and lesson structure. A lot of home educators opt for maths English and science from the national curriculum and cover alternative learning and subject after that. The great advantage to this is that you can be led by your child if they want to learn about something they are passionate about, not taking exams for a subject certainly does not make it any less meaningful. Children are put under way too much pressure to pass exams, surely having less pressure will allow for a more fun learning environment. we all learn at a different speed and have a different rate of information absorption. A huge advantage of home educating is that your child can stay with the same part of a subject until they are confident to move on, for example, if they were doing trigonometry, they would not move on to algebra until a were completely satisfied with all things trigonometry. This kind of learning environment makes fun a lot more learning and takes the unnecessary pressure of the child. As home educating is increasing so is the support network in the form of forums, social media groups such as Facebook, independent home educating websites and support through online classes via tutors. Local authorities are also embracing home education and are willing to pay you a home visit to discuss home educated in general. There is no legal requirement for the local authority to get involved in your child’s Home Education or visit your home unless they have genuine concerns over the child. Not all children have the confidence to raise their hands in class to ask a question or stand up in front of others. Home education provides a more relaxed environment to learn, therefore your child can ask the same question as many times as they like without feeling without feeling embarrassed or intimidated. As discussed in the question above, home educating can provide a great platform for socialising with adults and children alike. Unlike school where children are made to spend all day with peers of their own age, which is a very unnatural environment,. parents/guardians who allow their children to meet others from Facebook groups and also get involved in the local community on a regular basis, open up a whole new world of potential friends of varying ages. Also, it should not be forgotten that a lot of home educated children will already have friends generally from the local neighbourhood. It is not the school’s responsibility to teach your child space”real life skills”, this generally falls on the parents/guardians,. With the fast and furious times that we live in. Having the time to prepare children as rounded individuals for the real world is often a struggle. Having the flexibility of home education allows more time to teach children the things they will need going into the adult world. You do not need to follow the National Curriculum when Home Educating. People are often divided on whether certain subjects at school are actually useful in real life. I would say it is a balance. As mentioned in the Benefits of Home Education question, you can cherry pick your subjects from the curriculum should you decide to go down that route. It can be difficult deciding what to teach, but the big advantage with Home Education is that you can try something else if current subjects just aren’t working. Having this option will enable kids to see that life is about choice and not having to learn force fed subjects. We decided to mix curriculum and non-curriculum subjects. See subjects in our menu bar to see what we will be following. You do not need any qualifications in order to home educate, obviously having them may well be a benefit. There are so many options out there to assist in teaching your child, from private tutors, online courses, virtual lessons and of course one to one. In addition to the above, lots of parents and children have regular meet-ups so kids can interact whilst learning other things in a variety of locations. Your child will need to build up the discipline in order to self-study, which in itself is a great trait to have. This will allow them to self-educate and at the same time free you up to do other things. We will provide a list of educational resources as we add more content to the site. We all come across naysayers in life (a person who continually gives negative and pessimistic views even though things are going fine. Its in their nature to create a problem out of a solution). Home Education certainly attracts the doon and gloom merchants, luckily also a lot of open-minded, forward thinking and encouraging people who can see the beyond four walls of a classroom and the National Curriculum. I think if you know why you want to Home Educate and have an end goal, then the opinion of naysayers, whether they be friends, family or random people do not matter one iota. So far, in our experience, people who have frowned and ridiculed our decision to Home Educate are the ones who have not tried it. They are scared to stand apart from the crowd and leave their comfort zone, think the only way to be educated is through the school system and indeed those who are employed to teach within the system. Our boys have a great social life, both with old school friends and new Home Ed friends, read this enlightening article regarding socialisation. I do have to say we have had a large number of teachers think that Home Education is a great alternative to traditional schools and how disgruntled they are at not being able to teach openly due to red tape, statistics and Ofsted. Ironically, asked whether they enjoyed school and have benefitted from it both in a social, creative and professional capacity, you won’t be surprised to know that their experience was quite often negative! We all have different reasons why we Home Educate and why we also have children in mainstream school, both should be respected. Keep your eyes on the end goal, how happy your children are and how lucky you are to be able to Home Educate in this country. You do not have to justify yourself to the doubters; it’s all about having fun and preparing your child for an ever-changing world and allowing them to be creative and to follow their passion in a style that suits them. Ignore the naysayers; they’ll soon be frowning about aspects of other peoples lives."

The remaining copies are available for purchase by the public on a first come/first serve basis. Each copy is numbered, so the sooner you buy a copy, the lower a number you will receive. This deluxe version of the book will not be reprinted, so once it sells out, it will be gone. This book will certainly become a collectors’ item, and the price is expected to appreciate. Copies of the book can be purchased directly from the publisher PFA Publishing, Inc. at www.PFApublishing.com."

"question": "Q: How long did it take to write this book, and what research methods were used in researching the history of The Wall?",
"answer": "A: This book is the culmination of a research project undertaken by Vernon Fitch and Richard Mahon that took over ten years to complete. It began with an examination of every bit of information previously in existence about The Wall, in books, magazines, radio interviews, etc. After sorting through all of the existing information, the process of verification began, and missing parts of the story were then researched and filled in. Attempts were made to contact nearly everyone involved in the history of The Wall. More often than expected, information that had been previously taken for granted as fact proved to be wrong. By discussing every facet of The Wall story with the actual people that participated in the project, this history of The Wall was written. A: The number of people who were involved in the writing of this book is quite amazing. Nearly everyone who participated in the Wall album and Wall stage shows were contacted, and most people were enthusiastic about talking about what was, in many cases, a life changing event for them. Gerald Scarfe, the artist who worked with Roger Waters in developing The Wall story and created the animated films that were projected on The Wall during the concerts, explained exactly how The Wall evolved. Scarfe clarified many parts of the history of The Wall for this book. James Guthrie, one of the Wall album producers/engineers, and chief sound mixer for The Wall concerts, spent a great deal of time discussing both the recording of The Wall album and the Wall concerts with Vernon Fitch. Guthrie, who played an integral part in the history of The Wall, contributed significant pieces of information that now appear for the first time in this book. Bob Ezrin, the hall-of-fame producer who helped to co-produce The Wall album, generously volunteered to answer any questions about The Wall sessions. Ezrin helped to piece together the story of the Wall album, and proved vital in helping to document recording sessions that none of the other producers or band members attended. Mark Fisher, the stage designer who helped construct The Wall for live performances contributed detailed information to the book. Fisher reviewed an early draft of the chapter on preparing to stage The Wall live, made numerous corrections and clarifications, and added technical details that had never been revealed before. Phil Taylor, Pink Floyd’s equipment chief, who was in charge of all the equipment for The Wall recording sessions and who designed the equipment setup for The Wall concerts, added unique information about all the sessions. Both Taylor and Guthrie worked together with Vernon Fitch over the course of a year to put together, for the first time ever, listings of the equipment used for the recording of the Wall album, and the equipment used to perform The Wall concerts. This is one of many exclusive sections of the book. These are just a few examples of the numerous contributions made to this book by people who were directly involved in the history of The Wall. A: No. This is not Roger Waters’ version of The Wall story. This book is an independently researched account of the history of The Wall. Roger Waters was notified of the writing of this book, and was sent drafts of the book as work progressed. Certain parts of the book were changed at Waters’ request, and Waters did contribute to the book by granting permission to print the lyrics that are sung on The Wall album. But Waters did not participate in the writing of this book."

{
"question": "Q: Did David Gilmour provide information about The Wall for this book?",
"answer": "A: Yes. David Gilmour researched The Wall studio sessions exclusively for this book. There had never been any accurate credits published as to who played on each song on The Wall album. Gilmour was the musical director for The Wall, and he, together with James Guthrie, compiled a list of who played every instrument on each song. Gilmour’s Wall album credits can be found in Chapter 3 of this book."

"answer": "A: No. The Wall movie will be covered in a separate book published by PFA Publishing in 2015. There was too much information to include a history of The Wall movie in The Comfortably Numb book. It would have made the book just too large. By keeping The Wall movie as a separate book, the making of the movie will be covered in greater detail."

It features a beautiful full-color dust jacket, black end leaves, a Smythe sewn binding, and glossy full-color pages throughout. It also includes over 400 full-color pictures throughout the book. A: In researching the history of The Wall, people who were interviewed for this book were asked if they had any photographs that were taken during The Wall period. In so doing, many rare photographs that had resided only in personal photo collections were unearthed. These include pre-production drawings that were done for The Wall stage shows, photographs of Super Bear Studios during The Wall recording sessions, pictures of the mixing desk and sound equipment during The Wall concerts, sketches of equipment layouts, photos of The Wall stage shows, etc., etc. These are just a few examples of the rare pictures that are published for the first time in this book.
