"question": "Which toothbrush should I choose?",
"answer": "We recommend using a soft compared to harder bristled toothbrush. They tend to cause less damage to your teeth. It also dependant on the brushing method or technique followed and the amount of force applied while brushing. There are different types of x-rays or radiographs. It shows indepth detail of your teeth and surrounding tissues that cannot be seen visually during your clinical examination. They are required to make more accurate diagnosis. We can detect early signs of decay, hence helps us to make decision on treatment protocol for each patient in order to prevent further damage. We usually take x-rays every 2-3 years unless needed otherwise like in cases of trauma, soft tissue infection, abscess, cyst etc. Fissures are the anatomical grooves on the biting surfaces of your back teeth. Food and bacteria can get trapped in some deep grooves of your teeth often leading to decay. It is a part of Preventative dentistry, and we use a clear or white material to seal these grooves. This procedure usually won’t need injections and are generally done in children when a new tooth has erupted."

"question": "What is the best age to take my child to the Dentist?",
"answer": "Most Children have their baby teeth erupt between 2 to 3 years of age. So 18 months to 2 years is generally considered the right time to have their first checkup. At The Dental Retreat we look forward to make your child’s visit to the Dentist easy as possible. Brushing removes debris from the surfaces of your teeth, but leaves plaque and bacteria in between your teeth where it’s not reachable. The left-over plaque and bacteria can in turn cause decay and inflammation of your gums. Using the right type of floss and mastering the correct flossing method can help maintain healthy teeth and gums."

"question": "Interested in working for Switzerland's leading child relief organisation?",
"answer": "Answers to frequently asked questions (FAQ) about the organisation, our activities, donations, sponsorship, volunteering, etc. Support the children who need it the most and help us change their future. Poverty, unemployment and social exclusion in many parts of Romania are detrimental to children’s development. Children are left behind by parents who migrate in search of jobs, which exposes them to risks of school dropout, abuse, trafficking and exploitation. Our projects improve opportunities for underprivileged children and their families through better education and access to social, psychological and health services. We also support community development initiatives. 10,500+ children were supported to exercise their right to participation in 2017 Sharing is caring! 1600 children were involved in education and health activities in 2017 Sharing is caring! 3800+ parents and professionals took part in our training Sharing is caring! We support community development projects that make schools more accessible and appealing to children from underprivileged or minority communities such as the Roma by providing help with schoolwork and organising after-school activities. With community health centres that offer free medical advice and basic healthcare, access to quality health services is improved. These projects not only benefit the children but also strengthen community participation and enrich intercommunity dialogue. Additionally, we improve the entrepreneurial skills of disadvantaged communities to boost the local business environment. Terre des hommes raises awareness, trains and coaches social workers, community groups, sociocultural animators and school staff on specific issues relating to children’s rights and the inclusion of minorities. This for instance led to the creation of intercultural and bilingual classes for children who do not speak Romanian. We also help parents from underprivileged communities understand the importance of education as well as their role and responsibilities as parents. Terre des hommes is an important partner for child protection state authorities. We work together on the development of measures to prevent children being separated from their families and on the social inclusion of migrant and minority children. To promote children’s right to participate and express their opinions regarding issues that concern them, we have been organising a yearly national-level ‘Takeover day’ since 2012 together with our local partners. The Child Protection Hub is a network for child protection professionals in Southeast Europe. Through our SHINE project in Bacau County in Romania, one of the poorest regions in Europe, we improve the lives of disadvantaged children by investing in education, health, and social services and infrastructure. The MINT project allows for a better integration of refugees and migrant children in Europe. This project promotes the integration of Roma children on the move in the education system of three countries concerned by their migration – Romania, France, and Spain. \"I would like to become a pilot, but I know that you need to get good grades and study a lot,\" says Marius, delighted by his visit to the Bucharest airport control tower during 'Takeover day'. The Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC) is Switzerland’s international development cooperation agency within the Federal Department of Foreign Affairs (FDFA). By providing financial means, it supports more than forty projects of Terre des hommes in several geographical regions. Terre des hommes cooperates directly with the SDC, particularly with the departments Regional Cooperation, Humanitarian Aid and Cooperation with Eastern Europe. Founded in 1989, the FEDEVACO (Fédération vaudoise de coopération – Swiss cooperation federation) unites about 40 different NGOs in the area of development and cooperation, including Terre des hommes. The FEDEVACO is a privileged partner of the public entities at national, cantonal and municipal level when it comes to financing development projects in countries of the global South and East. These projects are subject to strict regulations imposed by a Technical Commission which consists of expert volunteers with profound experience and knowledge of field work. Start of Terre des hommes' work in Romania in favour of the most vulnerable children. Implementation of a social and financial support project for mothers in difficulty to prevent child abandonment. Launch of a programme to protect and reintegrate children in conflict with the law by providing legal and social aid and organising training for child welfare professionals. Beginning of a partnership to promote the respect of the rights of children with HIV. Introduction of legislative changes allowing Tdh to provide child protection training to key players belonging to national institutions. That year, Romania also became part of our project to fight child trafficking in Eastern Europe. Launching of TakeOver Day in Romania, which takes place yearly in November. Until 2017, more than 12.000 children participated in the event, taking over more than 100 different jobs. Start of a project working on Roma inclusion which improves access to education, health care and housing. Tdh started its activity and opened an office in Bacau County, one of the poorest regions in Europe. Migrant children at risk of trafficking: Tdh takes action! Be the first to receive information about the children we help. Every child in the world has the right to a childhood. It’s that simple."

"question": "What is the overall objective of GERoNiMO?",
"answer": "To underpin policy development and propose non-technological means to reduce EMF exposure. GERoNiMO will run for a total five years, starting on the 1st January 2014. The project is mainly funded by the European Union (EU grant agreement 603794), in addition to various local and national funding sources."
},
{
"question": "What is novel about GERoNiMO?",
"answer": "We consider that integration attempted under the GERoNiMO project framework represents a novel approach in this field in and of itself. It is the first time that anyone has tried to formally plug together the many disparate elements of EMF and health research, integrating across various fields of scientific research, across the frequency spectrum, etc. This approach will foster development of a network of experts with complementary skills in all disciplines ranging from physics and engineering, biology and epidemiology to health impact assessment and risk communication and management. We believe that this multidisciplinary approach is necessary to best address pertinent research questions and ultimately close gaps in knowledge pertaining to EMF and health. In addition, specific novel approaches will be used where appropriate to achieve the objectives of specific WPs and tasks. For example, in-vitro experiments using modern spectroscopic and electrochemical methods will be used to observe in real time the behaviour of living matter under EMF exposure. Together with metabonomics and genomic instability assays will provide a basis for a systems biology approach to gain insights into mechanisms. Dosimetric modelling will be used in epidemiological studies to derive organ specific metrics, for near- and far-field sources, in both occupational and non-occupational settings. GERoNiMO is led by Barcelona Institut of Global Health (ISGlobal), based in Barcelona, Spain. The project is headed by principle investigator (PI) Professor Elisabeth Cardis, head of the ISGlobal Radiation Programme."
},
{
"question": "How can I find out more about GERoNiMO?",
"answer": "The GERoNiMO website (http://radiation.isglobal.org/index.php/geronimo-home) serves as the chief source of information about the project. Please contact us directly if you have further questions. If you wish to know more about those project activities being carried out by particular participating institutions or in specific countries, please contact the relevant project partner.

"question": "How can this be, I see no water anywhere around my toilet?",
"answer": "A: Chances are your toilet leak is internal and while sometimes you may hear it running, this is not always the case. If the fill adjustment is off, your water is just running down the drain, similar to a running faucet. The difference in the toilet is this problem is occurring 24 hours day, leading to a large increase in usage. A leaking toilet can easily add 25,000 to 30,000 to your bill in one quarter! A leaking flapper valve could also be the culprit. If you find your toilet is leaking, replace the internals. Many times, it may be less expensive to replace the entire toilet and you will be purchasing a toilet that uses 33% water per flush."

"question": "Q: My shower head seems clogged and there is a lot of white powdery caking on the fixture, what is wrong with my water?",
"answer": "A: There is nothing wrong with your water. This is lime calcification and is a reaction with the anode in your hot water tank and the water. It is most visible in a shower head because water stays there for long periods of time. This can be alleviated by regular monthly maintenance of you shower head. Simply remove the shower head and pour vinegar into the fixture. Allow to sit for a couple of hours, rinse out and re-install your shower head. Q: I have recently installed lawn sprinklers and my water bill seems extremely high."
},
{
"question": "My installer told me I would be saving water, whats going on here?",
"answer": "A: I have never met a homeowner who saved water by installing a lawn sprinkler system. While it is the best way for your lawn to be watered to maintain a healthy lawn, you will be using a considerable amount of water, so it should be used responsibly. Here is a simple way to figure out how to estimate how much water is going on your lawn. Your lawn will be separated into zones that turn on and off to evenly distribute water onto your lawn and run at different times. Each zone will have approximately 5-6 heads. By multiplying the amount of heads times the amount times each zone you can calculate your approximate usage. An average head uses approximately 5 gallons per minute. For example, if you have 5 zones with 5 heads per zone, each zone is using 25 gallons per minute when running. If you run each zone for 20 minutes you are using 500 gallons per zone. Multiply that times 5 and that will equal your usage for the watering period. In this case, 2500 gallons. So you can see how quickly this can add up. A. A milky or cloudy appearance is usually caused by air bubbles in the water, which pose no health risk. If the water is allowed to sit, the air will dissipate and the water will clear. If the cloudiness does not disappear, please contact us so that we may investigate. Q."

https://www.apolloniadentalllc.com/faq/teeth-missing-implants-disease-bone/3565 | [
{
"question": "Are missing teeth really that much of a problem?",
"answer": "Missing teeth are a huge problem. The roots of your teeth stimulate your jaw to constantly rebuild itself to hold the roots in place. When you lose a tooth, this process stops, and the bone begins to deteriorate and reabsorb. In time, this effect spreads, damaging your remaining teeth and leading to further tooth loss. As you lose more teeth, you’ll begin to have difficulty eating fresh, healthy foods and your overall health will suffer. Missing teeth are also a factor in developing periodontal disease, a serious condition that has been linked to other systemic diseases including strokes, heart disease, diabetes, and pancreatic cancer. Additionally, concern over your appearance and the stigma related to missing teeth could lead to depression or social anxiety. One way to stop this chain reaction is to replace your missing teeth with dental implants. The metal implant actually integrates into your jawbone and stimulates the bone to repair itself.

"question": "Trademark Law: What can be trademarked?",
"answer": "A trademark is a word, phrase or design that identifies and distinguishes a product from goods or services developed by other companies. A product need not even exist before a trademark can be protected. Trademarks may be applied for before a product is introduced. Arbitrary or Fanciful Trademarks are those that have no relationship to the underlying product or service. For example, the words \"Lexus,\" \"Kodak,\" and \"Apple\" have no direct relationship to their underlying products (respectively, automobiles, cameras, or computers). These are the strongest marks, which are given the highest degree of protection. They often also require significant advertising and promotion to develop their association with their product or service. Suggestive Trademarks indirectly describe a characteristic of the underlying product/service. For example, the word \"Coppertone\" is suggestive of suntan lotion, but this does not directly describe the product. Like arbitrary or fanciful marks, suggestive marks are distinctive and will be given a high degree of protection. The majority of trademarks fall within this category. Descriptive Trademarks directly describe a characteristic or quality of the underlying product. For example, \"Holiday Inn\" is the trademark of a hotel company catering to vacationers. \"Holiday Inn,\" in itself, could not be a trademark. However, since \"Holiday Inn\" is recognizable from years of advertisement and use, it is now a legally strong trademark. Certain descriptive trademarks can be registered if they have been used. Others may only be registered after a sufficient amount of use and consumer recognition has been achieved. Generic Trademarks are the weakest trademarks and will often fail to be allowed for registration. You cannot trademark \"Bicycle, Inc.\" as the name for a bicycle manufacturer. To get your trademark allowed, you should aim for a more distinctive name. This will also increase its value. Confusion means that your trademark will create consumer confusion relating to your product and an existing product. A major factor in confusion is how similar the industries, products or services are. \"Apple Tech\" would not be an acceptable name for a computer manufacturer, but might be acceptable for an unrelated industry, such as automobiles. Dilution is diminishing or damaging the value of a famous trademark. For example, using \"Macy's\" as the name of a flea market company could potentially encounter problems on the ground that it devalues an existing company's brand. Generally, the stronger and more famous a brand is, the greater scope of protection or exclusivity it will be given, even in unrelated industries. Send your potential trademark name through our Trademark Services Form for a search and application. Registering your mark allows you to stop anyone who attempts to use or register a similar mark. A Federally-registered trademark holder has priority nationwide when there are any conflicts between businesses with the same or similar names. Five years after registration a trademark automatically becomes incontestable, eliminating nearly all trademark infringement defenses. When you apply for a Federal trademark registration, all companies in the United States are considered to be on notice of your rights in your trademark. They cannot claim ignorance once the registration issues. In addition, obtaining a Federal registration allows you to use the ® trademark symbol for your name and logo. Trademarks are \"intangible\" assets that build the value of your company. If you decide to sell your business or to take it public, registered trademarks will add to your company's value. Investors and partners often want to know that Federal applications for a company’s trademarks or logo have been filed. If someone tries to register a domain name that infringes on your trademark, you may be able to shut down the website based on your trademark registration. This benefit makes trademarks important for Internet businesses where confusing names could direct traffic away from your website. If you want to claim the rights of a name or logo, use the TM (for trademark) or SM (for service mark) designation to give notice to the public about your claim. This use of the TM or SM Trademark Symbol does not indicate a legally enforceable trademark. The registration symbol, ®, however, does carry legal weight. It may only be used when the mark is registered in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. 4."

{
"question": "Trademark Searching: Should I have a search done?",
"answer": "If you are using a trademark over a broad market (such as the Internet) or are concerned about competitors, it is advisable to perform a trademark search. The \"perfect\" business name for your company may be too perfect - it may already be taken. If you are going to invest time and money in creating a brand name and developing the marketing materials to promote your product or service, the costs of a name change could be staggering - much more than the cost of a trademark search. It is therefore important to perform a trademark search prior to any promotional activities. It is a relatively inexpensive form of insurance against future trademark problems. 5."
},
{
"question": "How long does a trademark last?",
"answer": "Trademark rights can last indefinitely, so long as the owner continues to use and renew the mark. Federal trademark law requires that between the fifth and sixth year after the date of initial registration, the trademark registrant must file further documents in order to maintain the registration. A renewal must then be filed every ten years. 6."
},
{
"question": "Can foreign applicants register a trademark?",
"answer": "Applicants not living in the United States may file for U.S. trademark registration. They must designate in writing the name and address of a representative within the United States. A U.S. registration provides protection only in the United States and its territories. If the owner of a mark wants protection in other countries, the owner must seek protection in each country separately. TrademarkMyName.com can assist you in filing such foreign trademark applications. 7."
},
{
"question": "Are there any additional costs?",
"answer": "There is a government filing fee of $325 per class of goods or services for every trademark application. This is in addition to the attorney costs to prepare the application. Depending upon the type of application filed (whether based on actual use or an intent to use), there may be some additional government fees required prior to registration. There are also additional government fees required for maintaining and renewing a registration. 8."
},
{
"question": "What is trademark infringement?",
"answer": "Trademark infringement occurs when someone uses a same or similar name in commerce in a way that may lead to confusion with the trademark owner's service or product. In general, infringement does not require the infringer to be a competitor, but infringement does require a similar or related product. What constitutes a trademark infringement is highly fact-specific. Please contact us to discuss any actions you believe to be infringement or if anyone has claimed infringement by you."

"question": "What are the risks associated with counseling?",
"answer": "Although counseling is unlikely to be harmful, it may stir up uncomfortable or painful thoughts or feelings. These periods are usually temporary. If you have concerns about your treatment, please raise them with your counselor. Fill out the contact form and let our office know your availability and we will get back to you within 24 hours. Yes. I work with many age groups. We are not contracted with insurance plans. Most insurance policies require that a deductible be met before benefits begin and require a co-payment, which is often in the same range as our fee. I am a Christian Counselor. I practice from a framework that acknowledges spirituality is important to us as human beings and is the source of meaning, purpose, and healing in our lives. I respect others’ beliefs, spiritual values and practices, which are different from my own. I believe the counseling process is another tool God uses to bring healing and reconciliation which allows humanity to live, work, and love or be in healthy relationship with God and each other. I offer the same acceptance, wisdom, and support previously granted to me. As a Christian Counselor, I believe that all healing power comes from God and I accept my role as merely a change agent for healing through the use of various treatment modalities. Many of my clients are not Christians. As a professional, I am committed to ethical counseling practices, which respect the rights and values of my clients. I am committed to listen empathetically, love and accept ALL people unconditionally, and to extend help to ANYONE in need. I will not allow my personal beliefs or knowledge to hinder my ability to respect my clients’ beliefs and values that are different than my own."

"question": "What are the eligibility factors?",
"answer": "Everybody and anybody, who has faith in esoteric super extra sensory energies can join TYGA–GRILA. Faith is the master key and consumer client orientation simply fails. Hence aspirants who are prepared to accept alternative holistic patterns with an open mind are perfectly eligible. In fact, doubtful and prejudiced people should better keep themselves away from such aspects. 3."
},
{
"question": "Is TYGA–GRILA like Reiki or Pranayama healing systems?",
"answer": "Any healing is ultimately based upon life energy, Prana or Reiki. In fact, Reiki is a common noun known as universal energy. TYGA–GRILA is capsuled into workshop patterns at several levels with additional methodologies to support healing. Mantra, Tantra, Vedic, Yogic and Esoteric Mystic Formulations are also revealed. 4."
},
{
"question": "What is this CHAKRAVYOOHA and AGNIVIDYA concept in TYGA–GRILA?",
"answer": "CHAKRAVYOOHA is the coined classification to the several chapters and the voluminous subject based on the major energy centers, the seven chakras of the human body and the many inter related multi mini chakras. AGNIVIDYA is the great ancient UPASANA procedure connected through vedic scriptures and yogic practices. Getting connected and aligned with cosmic energies and altered state of consciousness is perfectly possible through Vedic upadeshas and yogic shaktipat, contemplation and self realisation. YAJI is the form of the formless that guides the aspirant as a supreme force with TRINITY manifestations and invocations. HEPTAGON healing is the seven fold path adopted to withdraw YAJI powers and apply them in holistic way of healing. 5."
},
{
"question": "Can you reveal home-heading5 about TYGA–GRILA?",
"answer": "No, such esoteric subjects and tantric healing methodologies are never complete or full. Many connections, keys and sources are strategically unrevealed, kept as a divine secret, in order to protect itself and the holy mission. Sometimes beginners are even slightly misguided and diverted, until total faith and complete surrender state is achieved.There are several locks and master locks, codes and super codes with unrevealed keys and passwords, so that unauthorized hands fail to touch the actual source. 6."
},
{
"question": "What are the benefits assured for a TYGA–GRILA student?",
"answer": "Several experiments have proved wonderfully well. Many subjects have responded with a positive note. The healing system is holistic and remarkable. The whole system adopted in TYGA–GRILA is an artistic combination of vedic knowledge, tantric methodologies and esoteric ancient systems. Though there are several applications and procedures to achieve even the impossible, we sincerely express our inability to promise or assure equal results and similar experiences to all. TYGA–GRILA is not against any system or method. It does not restrict anyone to discontinue medical treatment, it is not a consumer transaction, hence no claims as such are entertained. It is a pure conscious awakening methodology intended for higher transformations. The vedic part of the course guides a student to build up truthfulness, righteousness, integrity, honesty and self discipline. The tantric part of the course helps the student to strengthen, balance and expand the inner consciousness and auric fields. The spiritual understandings based on ancient scriptures contribute to connect a student to cosmic consciousness, love for all religions, castes, communities and systems. Accepting the supreme power the student equips himself with mystic energies that work with the laws of karma for manifestation of effective healing. The esoteric talismans, amulets, charms, chanting, rituals, mantras and tantras provide space to accept everything and rise above the occasions. Peace, joy, tranquility, forgiveness, unconditional love, meditative excellence and positive mental attitudes are gradually experienced. Of course, depending upon individual practice, intensity, dedication and understanding. The prospective students of TYGA–GRILA are given to clearly understand that all cosmic understandings, subjects, alternative therapies, inner vibrations, miracles, esoteric experiences fail to open up and work, if operated with fear, doubt, confusion, anxiety, prejudice and expectations. Total surrender and utmost faith to the system, Gurutatwa the lineage, the discipline and the subject alone will prove to be completely beneficial to himself and others. All chapters, methods, applications, prayogas and operations are strategically locked under esoteric encoding systems and cannot be opened without the sincere submission and surrender and permission of the originator, Kesharamithra. 7."
},
{
"question": "How and when could we register for TYGA–GRILA?",
"answer": "The whole TYGA–GRILA workshops are classified into several levels, though each level is independent and complete by itself, thus permitting the students to join higher levels at ease and complete willingness. Regular workshop schedules are announced at least two months before commencement. This book ‘AHAM YAJI MEDHA YOGI&lrquo;, helps the aspirant to have a glimpse of the ideology and methodology adopted in TYGA–GRILA workshop you need to join the TYGA–GRILA club.Join the ‘TYGA-GRILA CLUB’ (TGC) as a member by paying a nominal annual subscription.

},
{
"question": "Q: What is an AMUSEMENT WRAP?",
"answer": "A. The wrap is high quality vinyl printed with a solvent based ink which has a clear laminate applied for UV protection, this laminate protects the graphic from fading and cracking due to the weather. The vinyl material has an adhesive that allows air bubbles to escape during application. Q."
},
{
"question": "What about the AMUSEMENT WRAP design process?",
"answer": "A. Our designers will work from a picture of your funhouse, food trailer, backflash, etc. and with your input create a concept themed for the amusement business, not the local hardware's plumbing department. Providing design proofs and mockups for your approval, you will see exactly what the piece will look like when finished. No surprises, period."
},
{
"question": "Q: How is the AMUSEMENT WRAP applied?",
"answer": "A. Vinyl is applied in strips, usually 50” wide or less by length as needed. Temperatures are important, vinyl should be applied at the 60 – 90 degree range. We have installed as low as 50 degrees with limited con formability and as high as 110 degrees again with limits. All our installers are Fellers Certified (vinyl installed without certification voids the manufacturers warranty) and receive ongoing training as new techniques are developed."
},
{
"question": "Q: Where is the AMUSEMENT WRAP installed?",
"answer": "A: Most wraps are installed on location, some customers have found it economical to truck ride tubs, gokarts, etc to our location in Southern Ohio. Wraps should be installed in a clean area or tarps should be place on floor under equipment. Large rides can be installed outside weather permitting."
},
{
"question": "Q: How long will an AMUSEMENT WRAP last?",

Alibabba (no rivet) backflash and vehicle can be wrapped by 2 installers in a 1 day, a typical funhouse front would be closer to 3 days."

"question": "Could we present medals for those disciplines as well?",
"answer": "The Alpha Rho Chi Bronze Medal is limited to accredited architectural programs, as prescribed by the fraternity’s National Constitution. While we appreciate the sentiment of recognizing the allied arts in addition to architecture, we are not prepared to offer the medal to all related degree programs."
},
{
"question": "The medal recognizes a “graduating senior.” Does that apply to undergraduate or graduate students?",
"answer": "Given the great diversity of architectural degree programs that have arisen since the medal was established in 1931, there is not a simple definition that applies to all. We allow each school select which graduating students to consider for the medal. Some schools nominate graduating students from both their undergraduate and graduate programs each year. Alpha Rho Chi does not distinguish between or maintain separate categories for undergraduate or graduate awards."
},
{
"question": "Our school has several deserving students, may we present medals to all of them?",
"answer": "To avoid diluting the award, we ask that schools submit no more than two nominations per year."
},
{
"question": "Does winning the medal make me a member of Alpha Rho Chi?",
"answer": "No, the award of the Alpha Rho Chi medal does not confer membership in the fraternity. Membership in Alpha Rho Chi Fraternity is generally limited to individuals who have been invited to join one of our active chapters and who have completed the fraternity’s ritual."
},
{
"question": "Is an APX Chapter a prerequisite for a school to present the Alpha Rho Chi Medal?",
"answer": "No, Alpha Rho Chi offers the medal at all accredited schools of architecture in the United States and Canada."
},
{
"question": "Do you have to be a member of APX to be awarded the medal?",
"answer": "Membership in the fraternity is not a criterion for awarding the Alpha Rho Chi Bronze Medal. The medal recognizes qualities of leadership, service and merit regardless of membership in the fraternity. That said, we are pleased whenever we are asked to award the medal to one of our active members."
},
{
"question": "How can I learn about starting a APX chapter at my school?",
"answer": "Please contact our Expansion Director at [email protected]. It would be our pleasure to discuss the possibility of establishing Alpha Rho Chi at your university."
},
{
"question": "Who designed the Alpha Rho Chi Medal?",
"answer": "The Alpha Rho Chi Medal was designed by sculptor and APX member Robert Merrell Gage. The medal portrays Athena seated upon an Ionic capital with a skyscraper resting in the palm of her hand. The words “Alpha Rho Chi” are arranged in an arch over her head. The reverse side depicts elements from the fraternity’s badge along with the words “Leadership, Service, Merit.” The name of the recipient is engraved on the reverse along with the school name and year of the award."
},
{
"question": "Can the medal be worn on a ribbon?",
"answer": "The Alpha Rho Chi Medal – like many more famous awards such as the Nobel Prize, Pulitzer, or Cadlecott Medals – takes the form of a coin medallion to commemorate the award or honor. Unlike military decorations, athletic honors, and some other prize medals, it is not intended to be worn. The Alpha Rho Chi Bronze Medal is awarded at schools of architecture."
},
{
"question": "Are there other types of the medal?",
"answer": "Yes, Alpha Rho Chi also awards medals in silver and gold. The Alpha Rho Chi Gold Medal is awarded by the fraternity to outstanding practitioners in architecture and the allied arts. The Alpha Rho Chi Silver Medal recognizes service to the fraternity. Both medals are only awarded with the approval of 3/4 of Alpha Rho Chi’s chapters and alumni associations."

"question": "Can I call to make a reservation?",
"answer": "No, reservations can only be made online. Reservations are required to visit the center Saturdays 11am-7pm, Sundays 4-7pm (note that the Center is CLOSED prior to 4pm on Sundays) and major holidays."
},
{
"question": "When can I make a reservation for the date I would like to come?",
"answer": "In order to provide reservations to a variety of people, we release reservations over several days. Some are released initially two weeks before the date. During the the week leading up to the date and on the date, we will release a portion every day at 9am. The system will always show when the next release will be. Once the system lists the date as full (after the last release on the day of) then there will be no more reservations released."
},
{
"question": "What if the date I want to come is full?",
"answer": "If the date you want to reserve for is listed as full, it means we are truly full for that date and that all reservations have been taken. Please make a reservation for a different date. Please remember that we cannot accommodate people arriving without reservations. When a reservation is cancelled while reservations for that date are open, it will be made available imediately, otherwise it will be made available at the next 9am release. Reservations cannot be cancelled after the final release on the day of."
},
{
"question": "I'm coming for a program or event - do I need to make a reservation?",
"answer": "No, if you are registered for a program, have enrolled in a class, or are coming with an appointment, you are considered to have a reservation and do not need to make a separate reservation. Mount Madonna Center staff, satsang and volunteers, and Mount Madonna School students, teachers, and alumni do not need reservations."
},
{
"question": "Do I need a reservation to come on a weekday?",
"answer": "No, reservations are only required if you are visiting the Center on a Saturday, Sundays or major holiday. Some reservations are available up to 2 weeks in advance. When that limited number of early reservations have filled, you may try to make a reservation again, starting a week before your planned visit date. At that time, we release a portion of the remaining reservations at 9am daily."

"question": "Also I've never torn into the powervalve on a YZ...is it similar to a KTM where a different spring can be used to change the opening rate or maybe a Beta that can be adjusted with just a few twists of a screw?",
"answer": "I know this is possible, I've ridden it...just not sure of the specifics of how to accomplish it. Permanent engine changes are OK, I can't imagine a reason to go back. I think the guy was talking about messing with the shims and spring in the governor. There is a huge thread in here about it. The spring is not like a KTM spring. As far as the head, he probably had his squish cut (plenty of threads on here about that) and maybe the dome cut to match that of the 250X. RD Designs will cut th head for ya. Yz250x cdi box and power valve springs. Maybe 18\" rear wheel too. Before you start throwing money at the bike, try this first--install various base gasket thicknesses and see how she runs, and don't be afraid to go thick. I once had a CR250 (01) that had been damaged by the previous owner, who pried the cylinder off with a screwdriver. In an effort to make the bike ride-able while searching for parts, I cut myself a base gasket out of a sheet of automotive gasket paper (which is really thick, but unfortunately I did not keep any measurements). I was amazed at how well the bike ran with that really thick gasket. Ultimately I went with a JD kit for jetting (01 CRs were notoriously hard to jet), but I wound up with a brilliant woods/single track motor--no hit, just smooth 250 power. I kept using that base gasket material as long as I had the bike (even after repairs). Thanks for that, it has been ages since I've owned a 2 stroke, and I'd completely forgot that you can lower the compression and change the port timing like that. Bonus points for being such a cheap mod too! Searching now, thanks for a direction to look."
},
{
"question": "Researching those YZX changes, those would fit on any 99+ YZ correct?",
"answer": "YZs don't have head gaskets, they have o-rings. You must machine the head if you want to adjust squish clearance and/or combustion chamber volume. Unless you raise the cylinder above the piston with a thicker base gasket... but that would change the porting in the opposite direction of your desired power. I think you can get thinner head gaskets to lower the ports, but then you'd have to adjust the head, which would be closer to the piston. You might as well give the cylinder, piston, and head to an engine builder and say, \"I want a low-mid, butter smooth, electric torque engine that will climb wet rock garden hills without wheelspin. Get cracking.\" If you want to do it with bolt on parts, run 2 base gaskets then get a 250x head, cdi, power valve springs and washers. If you want to do it cheaper/mod what you have, get the dome cut deeper/wider in the head without decking it to tighten up the squish like you normally do when modding the head and back the timing off a mm or so. Plus run the power valve washers the X has. Seeing as this will hopefully be my forever bike, sending it to a builder like has been mentioned will be money well spent. Thank you all for the very very good tips. Now my turn to get cracking on finding the best YZ in my area. If you want a tractor motor AND with good economy then don't lower the comp much, if at all. Instead you can lower the ports (shave the cyl base) and delay the PV open timing. When you shave the cyl base to lower the ports you should get the head dome vol increased to maintain stock comp or go lower comp. Also get the squish clearance reset to 1.3mm. Don't lower the comp too much or economy is lost. You can delay the PV open time with more washers in the governor device. Or you can delay it completely by getting some JB-Weld and gluing all three PV parts into the closed position. Then you can remove some PV parts. Just leave the rotating shaft in there. What ever you do, you obviously need good jetting and a healthy reed valve. You'll need to choose a pipe too. When you raise the cylinder, you raise the transfer and exhaust ports which (alone) would boost top end power and kill bottom end. But you lower the comp a lot and that newters the motor at any RPM. With the stock head you'll also go from stock wide squish (ordinary) to no squish which is ok. Just lower efficiency. short summary to me it looks like there are a few options. pv washers added to governor, I tried 3 and it really keeps the bike from hitting the powervalve, 2 may be the sweetspot for my conditions. smooth jetting - went with lectron, didn't like the keihin setups I tried as much. Gearing to suit your terrain. Thanks again for the responses, I've got a couple of pages of notes so far on what to do once I find a suitable bike on CL. Finding one with a mostly stock engine is a bit more difficult than I had thought. I agree about the yz250x head, cdi and power valve spring. Just to add to that, I have read from the guys that have tested different pv settings ad nauseum that the best pv setup on a moto yz250 is the x spring with just three of the four stock pv 1 mm washers installed. Remove the washer closest to the spring, if you switch to the yz250x pv spring."

{
"question": "have you ever ridden or seen this done to a bike ?",
"answer": "Yeah. In my current 295cc top end - the three PV \"slides\" are glued in the closed position. I did it after I decided the cylinder was at the end of it's life. It needed another plating but worse was that the main PV slide cavity was worn out. Rather than discarding it I thought I'd try a no PV 295cc setup with a fresh piston. I've put another 60 hours on it since. With a Wossner piston. The motor is very smooth and easy to ride. It's a 295, so it pulls really well from down low, and with the Fatty pipe it still pulls surprisingly well up top. It just takes a while to rev out. No need for a flywheel weight with the PV fixed shut. Less power up top than a stock 250 but so much width/range in the power that it's still very quick around a track. Almost as little gear shifting as a 450F. I first started experimenting with the PV fixed closed when I broke some PV link parts and wanted to ride the bike before I had the new parts. Actually it broke at a track, so I removed all three PV covers and stuffed rags over the valves to hold them shut and went back out and rode. I rode for hours. The motor was so easy to use. Great traction and control on approach to choppy hardpack dirt jumps. Today I have a new 295cc kit to go on with a Wiseco piston. The new setup has the main/middle valve functioning normally and the side exh ports are welded+plated over. So I have no thin exhaust bridges. I expect it'll have a little more top end power than a stock 250 and much more bottom end. With a very linear easy to use power curve."
},
{
"question": "i wonder if this is what Scorpa did with there trials bikes up until 2008 when they used yamaha motors ?",
"answer": "I've not tried it on 250 (less torque, so needs to rev more), but the effect should be the same. On any 1999-2017 YZ250 cylinder, to try the PV fixed closed, all you need to do is remove the left side linkage cover and install a 50c bolt into the hole used to lock the linkage crank. Cut the bolt to the required length so that it almost touches the installed cover so it wont fall out. Also wrap plumbers teflon tape around the bolt thread so it wont rattle. Then go ride it. It's also a simple way to check the low RPM effect of stiffening the PV gov spring or adding more washer spacers if you are undecided about that mod."

"question": "What is a “Special Maine Place”?",
"answer": "All of our cottages are individually owned and furnished to each owner’s taste and then we add our unique and caring servicing of the property and to you, the guest. This is what makes our places special for a true Maine Vacation Experience. Some cottages were built in the early 1800’s and others just a year or so ago. The style, furnishings and amenities are dictated somewhat by when they were built and their location. While all have basic life safety items (smoke detectors, CO detectors, Fire Extinguishers and the like), some don’t or can’t have a washer or dishwasher because they have wells or a close proximity to the water. We know that this really doesn’t matter when you wake up next to the ocean, river or lake to relax for a week. Many of our cottages have been passed down from generation to generation (called Generational Cottages) and so are only rented for a few weeks to help offset the costs of keeping this treasured vacation spot in the family. Other cottages have been built to be a summer home now, but, a full time home at retirement (Retirement Cottages) (these are often the newly built cottages with all modern amenities). The Generational Cottages are full of treasured photos evoking memories and mementoes left by each generation. You will find photos of the family enjoying a day in the yard, or a meal around the table or perhaps some shells or rocks collected at the beach. Maine is a very special place and has been to vacationers for hundreds of years. We have been sharing our homes, our cottages and our “special Maine places” with people for generations. Maine, known as Vacationland, is just that- a place to vacation whether in a small cabin in the woods, or a large estate on the ocean, we have something for everyone and in almost every price range. So, come see why Maine’s slogan is “the way life should be”. Our cottages are all privately-owned homes. These are not hotel rooms but unique and special places. We are here to help make sure you are connected with the cottage that fits you and your traveling companions! Please be sure to tell us about your group allergies, mobility and accessibility issues. There are several ways to book a cottage with Cottage Connection of Maine (CCM). You can peruse this website, www.cottageconnection.com. Keep in mind that in Prime Season all properties are rented by the week on a Thursday, Friday or Saturday schedule. To make the “search system” on our website work correctly you will need to search by those specific dates. If you click on the “Vacation Rentals” Tab you can choose from viewing all of our properties or select from Waterfront, Lakefront, Oceanfront, Water views, Near Town, Large Families or Reunions, and more…. If you find what you want on the website, then just click either the “Estimate” button or the “Book It” button and follow the prompts. A great way to book is to call our office at 1-800-823-9501 and speak with one of our Vacation Rental Specialists. They have been in each of our properties and so know them well enough to answer most of your questions. Mobility issues, pets, allergies and activities should all be discussed. Another option is to send us an email: [email protected] with your requirements and we’ll be happy to send you some suggestions. You can share any of our cottages with friends directly from our website. This makes it easy to share with all members of your family or group. We work hard to provide good photos that properly represent the cottages and write-ups that try to provide you with details about the property to assist you with making your choice. We are always happy to answer questions by phone or email. Our office is staffed from 9 am to 5 pm EST Monday thru Friday. In July and August our homes are in demand, so all reservations are on a first come, first served basis. The first person to reserve and provide a deposit will get the cottage. Don’t be left out, book early for the best choices. In Prime Season we must book full week stays. In off-season times we can and do offer shorter stays. Our cottages are assigned to specific check in days during Prime Season (Late June to Early September) and are 7 night minimums starting on a Thursday, Friday, or Saturday for arrival and departure days. If you need something different than the assigned day, please call Cottage Connection 800-823-9501 and we will try to accommodate you. Prime season is the third week in June thru Labor Day. II-1."

{
"question": "How much does the cottage cost?",
"answer": "We constantly compare our services and our houses to others in the area and we feel our prices are competitive and that our service and our properties are an outstanding value for the money. The price of each cottage includes everything except the Maine Lodging Tax (currently 9%), a Reservation Required Fee, and sometimes a cleaning fee. There are no hidden fees. We do offer some Optional Items such as Linen (if not supplied at the cottage), Equipment Rental (Extra TVs, DVDs, Gas Grills), Pet Fees and Departure Cleanings. Note: We also provide boat rentals, concierge services and provisioning as desired by you. We take great pride in not “nickel and diming” people to death….not our property owners or our guests. Here is a breakdown of our fees: Pricing on our official website www.cottageconnection.com is the authority for pricing. The 9% Maine State Lodging Tax is for anyone coming to visit except for working or education. Maine’s lodging tax is low compared to other states. The 11% Required Processing Fee – Cottage Connection of Maine, Inc. offers exceptional service to both Property Owners and vacationing Guests. In order to offer the high level of service that we do at a reasonable cost for all, we charge an additional fee. We have been in business since 1993. Everything has gone up but the price of fuel for our cars. We have a short season here on the Coast of Maine. We want to be able to provide great service and this fee allows us to do so. Linen rental and Cleaning fees may also be additional. Some cottages include them and some do not. When you reserve the cottage, the booking page will indicate if these fees are necessary. Otherwise, they are included in the rental rate. Prices are subject to change without notice. You will be charged the rate in effect at the time of your booking. Our cottages appear on several websites which may or may not have the most up to date pricing. We only honor the pricing on our website. See below. We advertise our properties on many other websites, such as FlipKey, TripAdvisor, and HomeAway etc. Because these sites do not always update information about our properties in real time, Guests should always reviews our Official Listing on our website: www.cottageconnection.com. This website will have the most up-to-date information about a property. We will always honor the pricing on our website, but not on others. II-2."
},
{
"question": "Why do I have to pay the full amount so far in advance?",
"answer": "When we take your reservation, we are guaranteeing the owner full payment for that time period. Our season is very short, less than 12 weeks, compared to other parts of Maine and the United States. The owners count on this income to assist with paying for upkeep and taxes. II-3."
},
{
"question": "Do you offer discounts on cottages?",
"answer": "We DO NOT offer discounts on our properties. In the pre- (April, May, June) and post- (After Labor thru Mid-October) season times the rates change and shorter stays are permitted. Please keep in mind that expenses remain the same or go up with larger heating bills during these time periods. Prime season is the third week in June thru Labor Day. Cottage rentals during prime season are rented for 7 day minimums and at rates that are competitive and a great value. II-4."
},
{
"question": "Am I Charged A Security Deposit and A Damage Waiver?",
"answer": "No, it is one or the other but not both. Part of the Required Fee includes our Damage Waiver protection plan. This covers up to $500 of accidental damages to the property. This is in lieu of a traditional “security deposit”. However, some properties do require a traditional security deposit in lieu of a Damage Waiver. The Credit Card Hold that we require means that you further accept our terms to take proper care of the property while you are in possession of it. This valid credit card is kept on file as a guarantee for negligent damages to the property since, except in a small number of cases, no security deposit is required. This card will be used for any additional services you request or any charges that appear for long distance phone calls or charges to cable or dish bills for paid movies and events and damage beyond normal wear and tear during your rental period. We never charge a credit card without a conversation with you first. Damage not reported will be billed. As stated in our Rental Agreement. The Accidental Damage Coverage does not cover pet-related damage. Renter must notify Cottage Connection at once of any damage during occupancy and submit a written report or the Accidental Damage Coverage is null and void."
},
{
"question": "II -5 What method of payment is accepted?",
"answer": "We prefer checks but do accept major credit cards (Visa, American Express, MasterCard and Discover), cash, personal checks, cashiers/bank checks, and money orders. Reservations made within 60-days of arrival require payment in full by credit card or certified funds. If PayPal or another payment method would be better for you, please tell us and we may add it to this list in the future."
},
{
"question": "II-6 What is the payment process?",
"answer": "Those guests who make reservations prior to January 1st have the opportunity to pay with our Exclusive Vacation Lay-Away Program. Making a reservation is a commitment that should not be taken lightly. Our rental season is very short, less than 12 weeks. You need to be sure you are committed to the time period you want so that we do not miss the opportunity to market the property to someone else. If you elect this option, a 25% deposit is required at time of booking and then a payment schedule is set up in the following winter months. Typically, the second payments will be due by January 30th (another 25%) and the balance by March 31st. Reservations made after January 1st require a 50% deposit and the balance by March 31st. Reservations made April 1st or later require payment in full at the time of booking. How About a Gift Certificate!"
},
{
"question": "How about a gift certificate to put toward a vacation in Maine?",
"answer": "It is really a lovely gift! The vacation rental prime-season is so short here (just a few weeks) and our owners depend on their income from the rentals, so we are unable to offer refunds. It is very difficult for us as human beings to hold our ground if you are suffering a family loss or dealing with a difficult situation. At the same time, our business' health and our owners depend on this income. That said, for guests booking more than 90 days prior to arrival, we will refund your money minus the Processing Fee and a $250 Cancelation Fee. Within 90 days you are subject to our cancelation policy which says that if we cannot rebook your time, you will not get a refund. Because of our strict cancelation policy, we encourage our guests to sign up for our Travel Insurance. We offer this valuable service thru CSA. This insurance may provide a refund should you have to cancel your reservation within 90 days of arrival. III."
},
{
"question": "After You Book – What’s Next?",
"answer": "After you reserve the cottage a Rental Agreement will be sent to you via email that will require your signature and a list of guests who will be accompanying you; our boat and our pet policy if you are bringing a pet to a pet friendly cottage you will need to complete this section as well. You have 7 days to complete the Agreement and return it to us. Your reservation is not final until we receive your Rental Agreement. Our Rental Agreements are between you and the Property Owner with Cottage Connection as the Agency Representative. Please forward the details of the rental agreement that outlines expectations to your travel companions. You will receive several emails from us. The first email is your confirmation with a link to the rental agreement and attachments which must be completed and returned within 7 days to complete the reservation process. The second email is a payment receipt acknowledging your payment(s)."
},
{
"question": "Switching Properties – Can we switch to another Property if our plans change?",
"answer": "Switching properties can happen but it is complicated because each property is individually owned and the commitments we make to property owners must be honored. They count on us to market their property for results. In order to switch to another property, we must first cancel your existing rental which is subject to our Cancelation Policy in our Rental Agreement. At that point, you will be hoping that someone else wants to rent your time in your first property so that you can get your money back minus the Processing Fee and a $250 cancelation fee. Until the original property is re-rented and paid for in full, you cannot get your money back. So, if you switch to another property, you may be obligated to rent both at full price. In a good year, we often can re-rent the property but there are no guarantees. We do rent cottages that are For Sale. We make every effort to give you 24 hours’ notice before a real estate broker wants to show the cottage to avoid interrupting your vacation. We identify cottages for sale in the write-ups on our website. If you do not wish to have a broker show the property during your stay, we suggest you pick a cottage that is Not for sale."
},
{
"question": "III-1 Can we come a day early or stay a day late?",
"answer": "This is not possible during Prime Season unless the cottage is not rented just prior to your arrival. If the cottage is not rented we will be happy to add extra days to your stay based on the rate at the time."
},
{
"question": "III-2 Am I permitted to have overnight guests?",
"answer": "Yes, as long as the occupancy limit is not exceeded and their names are listed on your Lodging Agreement. If parking space is a problem at your cottage, call us to arrange the use of our parking lot for overnight guests. You will receive an email from us about 2 weeks prior to your arrival with information for where and how to check in to your cottage. Please be sure to bring this with you as it will also contain either directions to our office in Boothbay OR directions that will take you right to your vacation home. We feel badly when someone drives all the way to Boothbay, when they could have gone right to their cottage (often miles from our office). If you are on the road and forgot what to do, call us and we will assist you. Please do not use your GPS! It may take you way out of the way."
},
{
"question": "IV -1 When is check-in/check-out?",
"answer": "We ask arriving guests who are checking in at our office in Boothbay to arrive no earlier than 4:00 P.M. and no later than 6:00 P.M. on check in day. We need every minute of the hours between check-out at 10:00 A.M. and check-in at 4:00 P.M. to ensure all the cottages changing hands that day are ready for the arriving guest. We ask your cooperation with this by checking in and out at the appropriate times. All Cottages will be clean and inspected prior to your check-in. If you encounter any problems after checking in you only need to contact the office, or if it is closed, the emergency cell phone (207-380-3043) and someone will assist you."
},
{
"question": "IV-2 What is the check in process for cottages in areas outside of Boothbay?",
"answer": "If you are checking into a cottage that is in another area, we will email you directions and instructions for checking in; again we ask that you do not arrive earlier than 4:00 P.M as the cottage may not be ready. Your check-in material will be left for you at the cottage. You will be asked to call us 207-633-6545 upon arrival so that we know you made it to the cottage and all is well."

"question": "IV-3 What if I am arriving after 6:00 P.M.?",
"answer": "If you expect to arrive after 6:00 P.M. and will be checking in at our Boothbay office, you must notify our office in advance so that arrangements may be made to accommodate you. Our office staffs want to enjoy their evening too, so please make sure to call if you cannot get to the office before 6 pm."
},
{
"question": "IV-4 How can I get to your area?",
"answer": "Maine is the northeastern most state and is a place you have to want to come to. Very seldom do you just pass through Maine on your way to someplace else. Most people come by car. Traveling from most parts of the United States you have to cross into Maine from Portsmouth, New Hampshire. There are other options including the train and the bus. For trains, the Amtrak “Down Easter” travels between Brunswick and Boston. The Bus operated by Concord Coach Lines (1-800-639-3317) is an easy ride from the Boston airport."
},
{
"question": "How far is the nearest airport?",
"answer": "Portland Jetport is approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes from the office. Bangor International Airport is approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes from the office. Manchester (NH) Airport is approximately 3 hours from the office. Logan International Airport (Boston, MA) is approximately 3 hours and 30 minutes from the office. We recommend the Portland International Jetport. It is served by many major airlines. Car rentals are available at the airport. You will need to have a car to get around our area. Public transportation is not easy to find or use in most parts of Maine."

"question": "IV-5 What if I am bringing my pet(s), what is expected of me?",
"answer": "We have hosted over 300 dogs a year since 1993. We are pet owners ourselves. We want to remain a pet friendly company and that requires your help. Bringing your dog requires you and your veterinarian to complete a simple form proving that your dog is up to date on all immunizations and is currently and has been (for at least 2 months prior to your visit) on a flea control program. We only permit DOGS at our Pet Friendly Properties for insurance reasons. We do not allow cats, monkeys, snakes, birds, mice, gerbils, etc. There is a nonrefundable Pet Fee of $150 (plus tax) for up to 2 dogs. This pet fee is not a “cleaning charge” and is not designed to cover the cost of extra cleaning. This is an “entry” fee. You must be able to control your dog at all times either by voice or leash. Our area does not have deadly animals but we do have skunks and raccoons. At no time should you leave your dog unattended at the property. There are doggie day-care services in our area, and we are happy to help you find one if need be. Should we receive complaints about your dog misbehaving or barking, you and your dog may be required to leave and all monies paid will be forfeited. Please don’t be offended if we have to tell you your dog cannot accompany you. Insurance companies have rules about the breeds and types of dogs that can be at a rental property. Dog breeds generally NOT permitted in our homes include, but are not limited to Pit Bull, Rottweiler, Doberman, Akita, Chow, German Shepherds and some other shepherd breeds, Bull Mastiff, Stafford Bull Terriers,(or any mix containing these breeds), or any type of wild breed (pure wolf or a wolf mix). We do have concerns about Black Labs and Golden Retrievers and all breeds that shed heavily. In the past, we have seen Guests bring these dog breeds to stay in our rental properties and leave us with a lot of pet hair to clean up. Should that happen you will be assessed an additional cleaning fee beginning at $45 per hour. You will be responsible for everything your dog does at the cottage. You may want to contact your insurance company to inquire about “extended liability coverage” for your dog while travelling. Dogs under 2 may not be permitted. Picking up after your dog is important. Make sure that you toss the waste deep into the woods or bushes surrounding the property or tie in bags securely if you deposit them in the trash cans. If you miss picking up, a $100 fee may be charged. We really don’t want to have to do it for you. If you are thinking of getting a new dog before your rental begins, do not assume we will allow it in your rental property. To review the Pet Addendum to our Rental Agreement, please click HERE."

{
"question": "IV-6 Does this cottage have a kitchen?",
"answer": "We are not a motor court. Our “cottages” are individual homes scattered all over the Mid-coast. Almost all of our cottages have full kitchens with dishes, glassware, silverware, pots and pans. (We have a couple condos that have mini kitchens.) Because they are all individually owned some are better equipped than others. If you know you are going to do a lot of cooking and require special size pans or need special utensils for cooking you may want to bring them as we cannot guarantee your cottage will have them. All cottages will have a pot for cooking lobsters. Most cottages have a grill, either charcoal or gas. Ask our Reservation Specialist which yours has if it is not listed on the website. All cottages will have a coffee maker. Please refer to the amenities list for that cottage on our website."
},
{
"question": "IV-7 Do I need to bring linen?",
"answer": "All cottages will have blankets and pillows as well as quilts/bedspreads. Some cottages provide the sheets and towels, others require you to bring your own or rent them through our linen service. None of the cottages provide beach towels. You should plan to bring those. Dish cloths and dish towels are not supplied either. The Linen Service provides a set of sheets and one bath, one hand, one face cloth per person as well as a bath mat for each bathroom. Linens must be ordered 2 weeks in advance. Please be sure to check with your Reservationist about linens for your cottage."
},
{
"question": "IV-8 What else do I need to bring?",
"answer": "Your own life jackets. Even if a home owner is supplying the kayak, please bring or rent Personal Flotation Devices that are fitted to you. Telephone, Now that nearly everyone carries a cell phone, land lines are less common, but many cottages do still have them, hardwired or cordless. Some have telephone bundled in with their cable or internet. Cell phone service can be poor in some areas of the lake region. If it's important to you to have reliable phone service, you should be sure to rent a cottage that has a land line. TV, Most cottages provide some type of TV service. Be sure to check if it is important to have TV Service/Cable. IV-10 Be prepared for anything from rain or fog to sun and high temperatures, including insects and animals. Because of the unexpected changes in weather, we ask you to leave windows closed at the cottage when going off for the day to minimize damage from wind or rain. Rest assured, no matter what the weather, it will surely change from day to day. In the spring and fall, you can expect warm days and cool evenings. In the summer you should expect hot days and warm to cool evenings. We are famous for our summer thunder storms which can be quick and torrential, so be prepared. Most cottages have flashlights or lanterns, but it never hurts to bring your own as well. A Brief Word About Bugs and Creatures of the Wild! We know that many people are not aware that in addition to Mosquitoes, Black Flies, Yellow Jackets, Hornets and Flying Ants, etc. Maine also has Wood Roaches. These Roaches look like miniature cockroaches. These Roaches are NOT spreaders of disease, they do not survive in homes and do not constitute a threat to homeowners or an infestation problem. To do not indicate \"dirty\" homes. They frequently enter homes that are built in or near the woods. They also survive in firewood piles. So if you see them - Name Them, or Squish Them! During your visit you may also find that you will encounter cute raccoons, squirrels and chipmunks. You MUST NOT feed them. If you do, they will tyry to get into your cottage and cause damage to the screens, doors and window frames and the like. If you feed them, then be prepared to take them home with you. Please honor our special request after you arrive at your property! Your vacation experience is very important to us. If we can fix something to make it better, we will. We want to hear about things that are bugging you AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. If you tell us when you leave it doesn’t provide us with a fair opportunity to exceed your expectations. No problem is too small. Please call us at 207-380-3043. Being Good Neighbors Is Important! Maine is a small town. You are in a community of people that live there all the time, not just for a short weekly vacation but for the entire season or year round. Your vacation is important but so are the rights of the people around you. Please do not do anything to negatively impact your neighbors. Please be considerate. We do not want them to complain to local law enforcement. Maine is a safe place....especially for kids."

{
"question": "If so, did you ever build a fairy house in the woods, skip stones on the water, water ski or canoe on a lake?",
"answer": "Give your kids this memorable experience, shut off the iPads and unplug the TVs and take their cell phones away for a few hours a day. It will be so worth it! They will thank you!"
},
{
"question": "V-1 Are guests responsible for bringing/filling the propane tanks on gas grills?",
"answer": "No, if you find your tank is empty, please call the office and we will do an exchange for you. Most owners with gas grills leave a spare tank. If you need to hook up the spare tank, let us know so we can exchange the empty one."
},
{
"question": "V-2 Are guests responsible for bringing/providing wood for the fireplace or wood stove?",
"answer": "Some owners provide wood at the beginning of the season and when it is gone it is gone; others supply it for the entire season; while others do not supply it all. If you have a question about this, please call the office. Wood is readily available throughout the area should you need to purchase it. Please DO NOT BRING FIREWOOD from home – it is illegal in Maine because it encourages the spread of invasive insects that can destroy forests."
},
{
"question": "V-3 What if appliances and/or utilities malfunction during my stay?",
"answer": "Call our office or if it is after hours the Emergency Cell Phone and we will get right on it. We do everything in our power to fix the problem at your cottage ASAP. Please understand that there will not be any refund for these events as they are unforeseen. But our track record is very good."
},
{
"question": "V-4 What day is trash pick-up?",
"answer": "Trash is a big deal here. If left outside overnight it can attract animals that make a mess of the yard as they pick through it. It is really important that you follow our instructions for removal. We cannot recycle easily. If you want to recycle let us know and we will work with you to do so. Maine does charge for returnable bottles and cans (read the labels to determine if they are returnable or not). Milk jugs are not returnable. These need to be separated from the rest of the trash and set aside. Trash pick-up days are posted on the refrigerator at your cottage. If you cannot find this information, please call the office ASAP. Many of our cottages have our new Animal Resistant Trash Cans."
},
{
"question": "Want one?",
"answer": "Stop by the office. Some of our cottages require you to take your trash to the local transfer station as local trash pick-up is not available. Directions are provided at those few cottages. Failure to follow directions for trash removal will result in an additional charge should we have to send someone to take care of it. Charges start at $45/hour from the time they leave the office until they return."
},
{
"question": "V-5 Where can I rent canoes, kayaks or boats?",
"answer": "Visit the About Us page of this website for a list of places where you can rent these items."
},
{
"question": "V-6 Where can I receive packages, faxes or respond to e-mails during my stay?",
"answer": "Mail and faxes can be sent to the Cottage Connection office. We will call you at the cottage when packages/faxes arrive.

All USPS deliveries need to use out PO Box 655, Boothbay, ME 04537."
},
{
"question": "V-7 How far is the cottage from the water?",
"answer": "More than 70% of our cottages are within 100 feet of the shoreline or within an easy walk to the shore. If your cottage is not waterfront, water is just a short walk/drive from anywhere in our service area. We have put information on the cottage web page to show you your options."
},
{
"question": "V-8 Where is the beach?",
"answer": "By the time you get this far north, you will find that the glaciers didn't leave much behind. While we have some beautiful long sandy beaches (Reid State Park, Popham Beach and Pemaquid Beach), more typically we have wonderful rocky shoes with seaweed and tidal pools. Small beaches of sand or pebbles are scattered like hidden treasures between the protecting ridges of granite that run down to the sea. There are many public beaches, swim floats, docks. Some are pet friendly. Again, look for this information on the cottage web page on our website. No, for everyone's health and safety ALL of our cottages are now smoke-free. Anyone smoking in a cottage or on the property will be assessed a fee for a professional cleaning company to come in and remove the smoke damage. Fireworks, while permitted in the State of Maine, are not allowed in most cities and towns. We at Cottage Connection and our Property Owners DO NOT allow fireworks at ANY of the cottages. Please respect that. Outside fires, because of fire danger, are not permitted at any of our cottages unless they have an approved fire pit. Please ask if this is important to you. Property owner’s contract with management companies such as ours because they value their privacy and prefer not to be involved with the renting of the property. Please respect this and bring any questions or a request for a future booking directly to us. Refer to your rental agreement for further information on this."
},
{
"question": "VI-1 What is expected of me when I leave?",
"answer": "We understand you are on vacation and the last thing you will want to do is clean the bathroom before you leave. What we ask is that you take care of and respect this private family home as if it were your grandmother’s that she let you borrow and leave it the way you found it. We expect you to leave the home and yard free of clutter and trash, the dishes clean and put away and all personal belongings removed including any open food items. (It is OK to leave unopened, non-perishable pantry items.) Our cleaners will sanitize the kitchen and bathroom and mop all the floors, freshen the windows and fluff the pillows. For an additional fee, we offer Departure (End) Cleaning, Mid-Week or Mid-Stay 'fluff' (Hot links to all types of cleaning defined.) as well as Chambermaid Services. Please reserve these services in advance of your arrival to help us with staffing needs. Prices vary depending on the size and complexity of the house. We have allotted a certain amount of time to clean a cottage after a guest departs based on you taking care of the few things we require.. Should the cottage take longer than that you will be charged for the additional time at $45/hour. Garbage bins should be out where they can be easily seen. Trash should always be bagged and placed in trash containers (hopefully, raccoon proof), ready for pick up at or by 8:00 A.M. Wipe out and empty the refrigerator and cupboards of all items brought into the house. Wash and put away dishes. If you start the dishwasher and it is not finished, please leave a note so we can be sure to empty it. Gather all personal items. We cannot be held responsible for items lost or left behind. Items that are recovered will gladly be mailed for the cost of packing and postage. If a special trip is required to retrieve the item, a service charge will apply for the time involved. Items left by the end of September will be given to local charities. Leave all furniture arranged in the order it was found, strip the beds following the instructions for what to do with the dirty linens after you put them in the laundry bags provided. All carpets and floors are to be left “broom clean”. Lock all windows and doors. Turn off all interior and exterior lights. Ensure that if you brought a pet, there is no evidence it was at the property after your stay per your pet addendum. In the cold weather months, keep the thermostats turned on and leave at 55 degrees. Return all keys and linens to our office or to the location specified at your cottage. If you are not required to check out at the office, please call 800-823-9501 to let us know you are departing the cottage so housekeeping can be notified. Report any problems by 10:00 A.M. Failure to report problems will result in a charge to your credit card per our Rental Agreement. Good or bad or somewhere in between, please leave a review of your stay. We care! We will send you a link to our review system shortly after you depart. Thank YOU!"

},
{
"question": "If not, what is it and when (and why) would we use it?",
"answer": "In Facebook, “friending” is social networking: Members search for people whom they know, used to know, or want to know. The friending tool enables them to contact these people or to accept someone’s request for contact (and determine the extent to–and ways in which–the person can contact and interact). On our BikeTravellers.com Community, “friending” is “social networking”: it enables us to contact one another and share resources and knowledge. By accepting a person’s friend request you become part of his or her “‘network” and can send instant (private) messages, post on their wire, get invited to groups etc. To accept a “friend request,” you can either follow the link in the e-mail you receive requesting friendship, or once you’ve logged in, look again at the gray tool bar on the top right; hover your mouse over “Notifications.” Then click on the number of notifications you have pending. You will then be directed to a web page that allows you to accept or reject the friendship request. The Notification link(on the top right bar of the BikeTravellers.com Community) indicates if you have a new message, friend request, or invitation to join a group. To send an email to another member, you can either find them on the member list or you can go to the BikeTravellers.com Community home page and click your avatar, click the “Messages” link on the left, and click “Compose.” Start typing the person’s first name in the addressee box and the program will give you a list of all the members whose names include the letters you’re typing. Next to the addressee box is an empty box for copying other members. Do the same thing in this box that you just did for the addressee. Each time, you do this, a new box will appear for another person to whom you might want to send a copy of the message. The settings on your profile page (available by going to the top gray navigation bar and clicking My BikeTravellers.com Community > My Settings > Notifications) allows you to choose whether you want the site to email you in response to a variety of different actions, such as a message being posted on the wire of a group to which you below. Please visit this page to easily change your preferences. Right now, there is not a way to make Profiles private, but we can look into developing that functionality. For now, users worried about privacy should avoid using their full names on their profiles (some combination of initials and first or last names might be good). We will look into developing this option, but it will take some time to do so. After you’ve logged in, hover your mouse over My account –> My Groups –> Create a Group. Follow the directions that you see. All content in public groups (member listing, forum posts, wire posts) is available to be viewed by anyone, even viewers who aren’t logged into the site. Public groups are listed in the public directory of groups, and any member of the community can join the group without seeking approval from the group owners."
},
{
"question": "How come I’m not receiving Group wire posts via email?",
"answer": "First, please check your notification settings to make sure that you have set your preferences correctly. Second, please check your account’s spam filter or spam folder, as we have received several reports of group wire posts being caught by spam filters. BikeTravellers.com Community emails are sent from the address “[email protected],” so you may need to add that address to your contacts or to your spam filter’s whitelist.

{
"question": "When was Little Hands founded?",
"answer": "Little Hands began in 1975 when a handful of families attending Carlmont Parents Nursery School (CPNS) recognized the need for a preschool for younger siblings. Nancy Forbes, then a CPNS teacher, embraced the idea and founded Little Hands. Little Hands officially incorporated in 1978 and began operating out of its current location. We rent space from, but are not affiliated with, the Church of the Good Shepherd. In 1992, Little Hands opened a sister school in San Mateo, which was incorporated independently and renamed Little Wonders. Little Hands also helped create Family Connections, a tuition-free parent participation preschool for low-income families. In 1998, Family Connections became independent; however, Little Hands continues to support the program. Today, Little Hands serves more than 100 families throughout the Peninsula each year. We are also proud to have many parents in our program who attended Little Hands when they too were babies and toddlers."
},
{
"question": "Why choose a play-based program?",
"answer": "Research shows that children learn by doing and through play. Little Hands emphasizes this type of play-based learning, by encouraging children to actively investigate different stations (water, gravel, paint, play dough, climbing structures, dress up, music) for themselves. A child’s inborn curiosity guides them to choose activities that interest them. In the Little Hands class environment, children are allowed to discover things on their own, which enables them to understand them more completely."
},
{
"question": "What programs are Little Hands affiliated with?",
"answer": "Little Hands is affiliated with the Sequoia District Adult Education, a state-supported organization offering adult education classes, including parenting education. It is fully accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges. Little Hands is a licensed exempt program which operates within Sequoia Adult School. The San Mateo Council of Parent Participation Nursery Schools (SMCPPNS) is a regional organization that helps provide information and support to parents and teachers of cooperative nursery schools in San Mateo County. The Council strives to promote the parent participation movement and to provide services and support for the 12 member schools and their families.

"question": "What role do the teachers play?",
"answer": "Teachers welcome children and parents, facilitate the activities and interactions, model appropriate behavior for both children and parents, and lead the observing parent discussions. Finally, they close the class with music time."
},
{
"question": "What are Little Hands’ requirements for teachers?",
"answer": "Among child-related programs, Little Hands is one of the few schools that requires its teachers to have a 4-year degree and credential. All Little Hands teachers hold a California teaching credential, adult education credential, or a master's degree in a related field (e.g., child growth and development)."
},
{
"question": "How is snack time organized?",
"answer": "Midway through class, the children wash their hands and meet in the classroom for a snack. Snack is brought by a parent as her/his supervising duty for the day. In most classes, supervising and observing parents take turns going to the kitchen for a snack. Snack responsibility rotates, like all supervising parent stations. You usually have this job twice during the year. When it rains, teachers will generally offer more indoor activities to keep the kids busy. The back classroom has an awning over part of the outdoor play area, and teachers in that classroom can fence off the covered area to allow for some outdoor play. The class interferes with my child's (current) nap time."
},
{
"question": "What can I do?",
"answer": "We have arrived at this schedule after years of trying different class times for different ages. While it may not be perfect for all the children, we have found that most do adjust quite well. We suggest you try a few classes to see if your child can adjust to the class time. Keep in mind that your child's nap time may shift substantially between spring registration and the beginning of classes in the fall."
},
{
"question": "What are examples of supervising parent stations?",
"answer": "While at school during class, every other week you will be supervising a station. Stations include play areas with playdough, blocks, music, sandbox, patio area, art project, climber, loft, playhouse, snack, and so forth."
},
{
"question": "What are examples of observing parents' observation and discussion topics?",
"answer": "Every other class you will be an observing parent. Each time you will focus on a different topic. The first half of class is spent observing your child, and the second half you meet with the teacher and fellow observing parents for a discussion. Topics include: ages and stages of development, eating or sleeping patterns, limit setting and discipline."
},
{
"question": "Can I follow my child and/or can s/he stay with me as I work?",
"answer": "As an observing parent you will usually be observing your child. At discussion time, children are welcome to sit down and do a quiet activity near you, but encouraged to play outside or in the other rooms, if appropriate. While supervising a station, you must remain at your station. Your child is welcome to stay with you."
},
{
"question": "What if one of us is sick and we miss a class?",
"answer": "You are welcome (and encouraged) to make it up in another class (up to three per year). Please call the teacher to let her know you would like to do a make-up so she can plan accordingly. Attend the make-up class with the participating child only. Please no siblings. Remember the ages of the classes are as of September 1 of the current school year. Longer absences due to the birth of another baby are frequently made up by a father or a grandparent."
},
{
"question": "Can other adults attend class with me or in my place?",
"answer": "You may bring an adult visitor to class with you, but please check with the teacher first. If the visitor is a prospective member of Little Hands, we ask that they schedule a regular visit through the Administrative Assistant instead. On occasion, if you are ill or out of town, another adult may attend class in your place with your child. Since Little Hands is affiliated with the Sequoia Adult School as a parent education program, however, it is essential that a parent, grandparent or legal guardian be the primary attendee (participating parent). I have another child."
},
{
"question": "Can I bring him/her to class?",
"answer": "Very young babies that can be carried in front or back packs or asleep in a carrier (so that you can still do your supervising) are welcome in class. We ask that you make other arrangements when this no longer works. Your other (older) children are welcome to visit three times per year. An on-site nursery is available for families to use with their private caregiver. Families are encouraged to organize childcare opportunities with others in their class. For more information, contact [email protected]."
},
{
"question": "What is a co-op school?",
"answer": "A co-op school is a non-profit organization where parents play an active role in the school operations. This creates a sense of community, through parent involvement, and also keeps tuition low. The Director and Teachers are responsible for curriculum, while parents are responsible for maintaining the school. Each parent attends class with their child, where they spend half the time supervising class and the other half as students. After each class, several parents will stay to clean the school and set it up for the next class. Depending on the size of the class, each parent can expect to work after class approximately 15-20 minutes, 6-8 times throughout the year. Outside of class, parents participate in one 3.5-hour Maintenance Day each year, complete an assigned job (which will typically take between 12-18 hours) and help with a school-wide event (which will typically take 5 hours). The Jobs board member does his/her best to assign family jobs based on experience and interest."
},
{
"question": "What is the Sequoia Adult School (SAS)?",
"answer": "Sequoia District Adult School is state-supported and offers adult education classes, including vocational training, computers, and parent education. Little Hands is one of seven parent education/parent participation programs which operate in affiliation with SAS. Although we no longer receive partial funding from SAS, our affiliation with SAS requires that Little Hands' parents (students) complete a certain number of parent education hours within the scope of our program."
},
{
"question": "How do the students fulfill their parent education hour requirements?",
"answer": "The parent education requirements are fulfilled by attending three required night classes plus weekly classes with the children. The required night classes include an orientation and two night classes with your own class. Our Parenting Together events also fulfill the requirement and can be attended to make up any missed required night classes. Please arrange class makeups with your Little Hands teacher."
},
{
"question": "What are examples of yearly jobs, and how much time should I expect to spend on my job?",
"answer": "There is a wide variety of jobs so choosing one that works for you is important. The Jobs board member does his/her best to assign jobs based on experience and interest, and we encourage parents to communicate with the Jobs board member to help in this determination. Typically a job will take approximately 12-18 hours for the year, in addition to approximately five hours at a school-wide event. There are some that might be less, and some that are definitely more. Board members may spend 10-20 hours/month or more. We hope you will catch the co-op spirit and do what you can for the school! Helping with social events or fundraising events. A job buyout program is also available. See below."
},
{
"question": "How does the job buyout program work?",
"answer": "Each family is required to perform one three-and-a-half-hour maintenance day during the year. Maintenance days are usually scheduled on one Saturday each month. You will have the opportunity to select a day that is convenient for your family. Either you or your spouse may attend, but children are not allowed."
},
{
"question": "What fundraising participation is required or requested?",
"answer": "Little Hands holds fundraising events throughout the year, including Talbots Toy Night and a school auction, and participates in programs such as eScrip (an easy way to contribute money without spending extra). As a non-profit, Little Hands also qualifies for your United Way contribution. While fundraising is not required, we strongly encourage each family to help in this area. Fundraising is what keeps our non-profit co-op going. We use these funds to make significant improvements to the school. In the past we have used our fundraising money to remodel the bathrooms, install the trough sink, remodel the art room, and install new vinyl and carpet in the music and playdough rooms."
},
{
"question": "How many families can enroll?",
"answer": "Enrollment is limited to approximately 16 or 24 families per class, depending on the age range of the class. For more information about registering your child, please refer to the registration instructions page. For questions about availability in classes, please contact the registrar, [email protected]."
},
{
"question": "How does the registration and enrollment process work?",
"answer": "Little Hands processes all registrations online. To register, please visit the Classes & Registration pages for the individual session. Fall Session enrollment includes a Registration fee and Co-op Deposit (see enrollment page for current rates). For class tuition we offer two options; families may elect to pay full tuition at time of registration, or choose a Monthly Payment Plan. The Monthly Payment Plan option requires a credit card on file, and will charge the Non-Refundable Registration Fee and the Refundable Co-op Deposit at time of registration. Then, beginning on September 1, nine equal tuition payments will be charged to the card on file on the first of each month through May 1. If there is room in a class, and you enroll after September 1, the tuition will be automatically prorated based on the date of registration. After completing the registration process, you will receive a confirmation via email, including the PDF file \"Enrollment Kit\" as an attachment. This file includes the health forms that must be completed prior to Orientation, as well as a copy of our school policies. Please keep copies of your completed health forms for your records. Little Hands offers limited financial aid. Requests are kept confidential. If you would like to request financial aid, please contact the registrar at the time of enrollment. There's a chance we may need to drop our class."
},
{
"question": "Can I get a refund?",
"answer": "Registration Fee - Please see enrollment pages for non-refundable registration fees. Drop Request - Families who decide to withdraw MUST submit a Drop Request by emailing your teacher, office manager, as well as the registrar with notice of your plans. Grace Period - Little Hands grants a grace period of two weeks following a family’s first day of class attendance, during which time the family may submit a Drop Request to withdraw from the class and receive full reimbursement of the co-op deposit and the remainder of the prepaid tuition. Co-op Deposit Refund for Dropped Families - If the family has completed a Maintenance Day, performed the required job hours (or prorated job hours for those enrolling in the Winter Term), and submitted the Job Completion form by May 13, the co-op deposit will be refunded. Early withdrawal past the Grace Period from the Little Hands program does not impact this policy and the maintenance deposit will be forfeited regardless of departure date. Refund of Tuition - If you decide to leave Little Hands and you prepaid tuition, the remaining tuition will be refunded as of the 1st of month after your planned departure. For those on monthly payment plans, you will no longer be billed beginning the month after you stop attending. For instance, if you notify us on October 1st that you plan to leave Little Hands on November 15th, you will be refunded tuition from December 1st onward or will not be billed from December 1st onward. No refunds are provided for missed days (such as days absent, holidays, illness, vacations or school closure). Make-up options for absences are available and should be discussed with your teacher."
},
{
"question": "How does the waitlist work?",
"answer": "If you've missed registration, don't despair! Class availability varies periodically as families add, drop, and switch classes. Once you've reviewed the written information and visited the school, you and the registrar can discuss the class(es) that best meets your needs and current availability. If the class you want is full, you will have the opportunity to join the waitlist at no cost during the online registration process. You may also register for one class and join the waitlist for a second class."
},
{
"question": "What if my child is a few weeks too old or too young for the class that I think is appropriate or convenient?",
"answer": "After years of experimentation, Little Hands has arrived at the specified age ranges and cut-off dates. We will consider slight age differences after classes commence, if space allows. This will be done on a case-by-case basis. I never received any email from Little Hands."
},
{
"question": "What should I do?",
"answer": "The Little Hands registration process is online, and most communication with families is via email. If you haven't received an expected email, please check your spam folder, which may have filtered out Little Hands communication. Additionally, try adding the email address [email protected] to your address book, and allowing all email originating from the domain \"littlehands.org\". If you cannot find the expected email, call us at 650-595-4830 or email the registrar at [email protected]."

"answer": "Answer: Not really. If you are reasonably adept with your hands, you should be able to master the macrame knots after a certain amount of practice. That being said, coming up with original patterns is a little more tricky. Stick to pattern instructions you can find in books and online at first.

"answer": "The Eye Health and CDSSP coordinates and accompanies visiting eye specialists to most regional Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Services (ACCHSs) around South Australia including Ceduna and the Maralinga Tjarutja Lands, Coober Pedy, and several communities within the APY Lands including Pukatja, Amata, Fregon, Mimili, Iwantja, Pipalyatjara and Nyapari. For all of these communities, the Eye Health and CDSSP provides high-end ground level support to these communities where access to medical specialists is severely under-resourced. The program also provides advocacy, guidance and lower level external support to ACCHSs in accessible rural locations such as Whyalla, Murray Bridge, Raukkan and Meningie. The Eye Health and CDSSP program works closely with ACCHSs to build and strengthen their own capacity toward self-sufficiency and driving their own eye health program to their clients."

Priority clients include those with chronic disease(s) such as diabetes or heart disease, and those with any high priority eye health concerns that require urgent attention. Reports are generated from the patient information system, which lists the clients who are due for eye specialist recall together with consultation from AHWs and clinic staff."

The purpose of this meeting is to provide the Board an opportunity to conduct informal communications with each other, review the agenda and identify questions they may have for staff before taking action on the agenda items in their regular business meeting.

Each type of executive session generally fits under one of three types of State Laws that allow such closed sessions. These statutes are indicated on the worksession item. Although the press is allowed to remain in the room, they are not allowed to report on executive session issues. The Board recognizes the sensitivity of conducting closed sessions and only conducts them when confidentiality is required (and allowed by law) to protect the interests of Washington County and its taxpayers."

{
"question": "Do you have a standard price for a storefront of my size?",
"answer": "SMALL COMMERCIAL: It is really difficult to give a standard price because every business is different. Some want our standard weekly service, others every other week, or once monthly. We determine price by window pane count, accessibility and frequency of inside and outside cleanings. Usually for a weekly service for a standard size storefront we charge less than the cost of lunch out for two, and you can have clean windows all month long. Call us today and we can more than likely have someone out there in one or two days to leave an estimate for you. SMALL & LARGE COMMERCIAL: Yes, the metal framing around your windows are included. SMALL & LARGE COMMERCIAL: Yes, we work for many general contractors and our services include window cleaning and pressure washing removing all construction debris, dirt and stickers, whether a small storefront, restaurant, shopping center, or low or high rise building. We do have a Tempered Glass Waiver that must be signed prior to any post-construction cleaning of windows. SMALL COMMERCIAL: Most of our customers are on a weekly outside schedule, ledges, and doors with a monthly inside cleaning. One exception to this would be restaurants which mostly are weekly in and out. We will do any service requested to earn your business of course but this is our most popular as this keeps your windows always clean and inviting. We do not do small commercial one time cleanings (unless specifically requested and approved) because we know your windows will get dirty again and you will be calling us. Everyone is on some kind of program. LARGE COMMERCIAL: Quarterly is our most popular for entire shopping centers, medical facilities, and business parks. Some opt for an 'Every 6 Month' and a small percentage prefer Annual scheduling. SMALL & LARGE COMMERCIAL: Absolutely nothing. We allow you to keep your business running without interruption so you can do what you do best. We will announce our arrival and when completed we will quickly have you sign a 'we were here' form and checkmark a 1 to 5 rating list when completed. It won't take more than a minute, we promise. SMALL & LARGE COMMERCIAL: Window Cleaning - we work year around so never a problem no matter the temperature. If it is raining, most storefronts have overhangs and if not, a light rain is not an issue for us. Heavy downpours, high winds, and thunderstorms will require us to wait it out or reschedule. Pressure Washing - as long as the temperatures are above freezing. SMALL & LARGE COMMERCIAL: Yes. We charge by the window or by the job to remove hard water stains. It can be very time consuming and difficult to remove. Though there are many chemicals on the market, some do not work well when there is extreme hard water damage and other methods may be necessary. If you have any questions, call and ask and we will make you aware of the options we offer and let you know if they would make a noticeable difference. We do require you to sign a Liability Form stating that we are not responsible if the glass scratches during the cleaning process. Q."
},
{
"question": "Do you charge extra for paint, nicotine stain, silicone, vine growth, or sticker removal?",
"answer": "SMALL & LARGE COMMERCIAL: Yes, like hard water removal, each job varies as these can be very time consuming in some cases. Typically, for storefront work, a first time initial cleanup charge is added in conjunction with the estimate so you know any upfront additional costs. This is also sometimes the case for larger commercial building where a quarterly or semi-annual program contract is put into place. We do require you to sign a Liability Form stating that we are not responsible if the glass scratches during the cleaning process. Q. My windows look foggy or there is moisture built up between the panes."
},
{
"question": "Can you get that off?",
"answer": "SMALL & LARGE COMMERCIAL: If it is in between your factory-sealed, double-pane windows, there is nothing we can do. You will most likely have to replace the window or call a company that is knowledgeable in possibly removing the moisture from between the panes. SMALL & LARGE COMMERCIAL: As long as the tint is at least 6-7 weeks old, it is very rare and highly unlikely that our products or cleaning techniques will scratch or damage your tint. We do not use ammonia or scrapers on tinted glass, only soap, soft wash and rubber touches your window tint. If it is questionable, our technicians are trained to test the glass. SMALL & LARGE COMMERCIAL: We accept; Cash, Checks, Credit and Debit Cards. Credit Cards - A small $3 transaction fee will be added for payment by credit card. Checks - A $25 fee will be added for returned checks. SMALL COMMERCIAL: No, weekend appointments are not available. Our commercial technicians work Monday through Friday, and if behind, their schedule may dictate they push their week to Saturday. LARGE COMMERCIAL: In many cases, yes, weekend work can be scheduled. Some larger jobs require us to work Saturday and Sunday to complete. Or our workload is extreme and sometimes we are forced to do weekend large commercial work to stay on schedule. SMALL & LARGE COMMERCIAL: Window Agency is a fully licensed, insured, certified operated business. We carry a multi-million dollar general liability insurance policy and by law we must carry worker's compensation for your protection and we do conduct regular on-going safety meetings. See our insurance docs. SMALL COMMERCIAL: Yes, on time barring something out of our control. Our storefront route work division is auto-scheduled and therefore our technicians arrive the same day each week, every other week, or same week of the month if monthly serviced (in many cases even approximately the same time). LARGE COMMERCIAL: We show up as scheduled 95% of the time. You will also get a confirmation call or email and/or a notice if anything beyond our control has occurred, delaying our arrival. We always communicate to keep you in the loop. SMALL COMMERCIAL: Our minimum charge is $10 to come out and do regularly serviced program work and $75 to come out and do a one-time cleaning (if we approve and accept). SMALL & LARGE COMMERCIAL: We do all of our estimating during business hours and in most cases the owner or a manager will be there to accept the estimate. If not, we will leave it with the person in charge and follow up the next day."

"question": "Don’t I have to “spend down” all my money before I can apply for Medicaid?",
"answer": "Spending down virtually all of your money is one path to becoming eligible for Medicaid. However, you don’t have to do that. There are a number of entirely legal and proper strategies that can be used to protect your assets or income, and at the same time become eligible for Medicaid. Click here to Find Your Situation. For effective planning, if you are making any transfers of your assets now, the five-year look back period must be taken into account."
},
{
"question": "I was told I have too much money to ever get Medicaid – is that true?",
"answer": "You can qualify. Many people have the mistaken impression that they would never be approved for benefits under Medicaid eligibility requirements. That is simply not the case. With effective planning, most people can get Medicaid."
},
{
"question": "Will I get in trouble if I transfer my assets to family members or to a trust?",
"answer": "No. There is nothing illegal or improper about transferring your assets to family members or to a trust. However, if you are applying for Medicaid nursing home care, and have made transfers within the “look back” period, you may be subject to a “penalty period” during which Medicaid will not pay your nursing home bill. Note that certain transfers do not trigger a penalty (for example, transfers between spouses), and that the “look back” does not apply to Medicaid’s home care or assisted living programs. Further, even if you are subject to a “penalty period,” there are often Elder Law strategies available to reduce the penalty and save a substantial portion of your assets."
},
{
"question": "I’m confused about the “look back” period – what is it exactly?",
"answer": "The “look back” period is the five year period extending back from the date of your application for Medicaid nursing home benefits. Medicaid requires documentary proof of all of your financial transactions during this period, to determine whether you made any gifts or transfers of your assets. Transfers and gifts that you made within the “look back” period are subject to a penalty that may delay your eligibility for Medicaid benefits."
},
{
"question": "Will the “look back” period prevent me from applying for Medicaid?",
"answer": "The “look back” will not prevent you from applying for Medicaid, but it may result in a delay of your eligibility for nursing home benefits. It is a primary reason why it is important to become informed of your rights and options, and to plan ahead."
},
{
"question": "What is the “penalty period”?",
"answer": "If you are in a nursing home and are asking Medicaid to pay the nursing home’s bills, Medicaid will refuse to do so for a period of time if you have made any gifts or transfers of your assets during the five year “look back” period. The number of months that you are not eligible for Medicaid benefits is called the “penalty period.” Here is an example of how the “penalty period” works. Let’s say you live in New York City, and you gave your son or daughter a gift of $125,000 in January 2019. If you needed nursing home care at any point up to January 2024, and you filed a Medicaid application, your gift would fall within Medicaid’s “look back” period. Medicaid would then perform a calculation as follows: the amount or value of your gift would be divided by Medicaid’s monthly regional rate for nursing home care, resulting in a number that represents the period of time in months that you are not eligible for Medicaid nursing home benefits. The regional rate applicable to you depends on your county of residence within New York State. In New York City, the Medicaid regional rate for 2019 is $12,419. In our example, the calculation is thus $125,000 divided by $12,419, resulting in a “penalty period” of approximately 10 months. During this time, someone other than you would have to pay for your care. Don’t let the “look back” and the “penalty period” deter you from seeking the advice of an Elder Law attorney. He or she will likely have a strategy to save you a significant amount of money, even if you made a gift or transfer that subjects you to a “penalty period.” For a discussion of the strategies that might apply in nursing home cases, click to Find Your Situation."
},
{
"question": "I need care now – isn’t it too late for me to start planning?",
"answer": "No, it is not too late, even if you already in a nursing home. Most Elder Law strategies can be implemented at the last minute. If you need nursing home care, your ability to protect your assets may be more limited than if you had planned ahead. However, even in a worst case scenario, it is likely that you could still protect 40-50% of your assets. In cases involving home care or assisted living, usually all of your assets can be protected. Yes, of course. All of Lamson & Cutner’s recommendations and strategies are based on provisions of Federal or New York State laws or rules, and are entirely proper. They’re time-tested, reliable, and cost effective. We do not believe in taking risks or employing so-called “cutting edge” strategies for our clients. We want clients to be secure in the knowledge that they are acting properly and responsibly in seeking benefits that they are entitled to receive, and have helped pay for through their taxes and payroll deductions. If you’ve saved some money and paid your taxes, you don’t want to put yourself in a positon where you would have to live out your remaining years in poverty when Medicaid benefits are available to you."

"question": "What should I do to start playing golf?",
"answer": "- Chose a golf club near your location. clubhouse – each guest is welcome. - Be perfectly on time and don’t be late for the start of each golf lesson – this is part of golf etiquette. You do not need your own golf clubs in order to start playing golf, because the club you are having the training course in will provide you with such. All you need in the beginning are sports shoes and comfortable garment. If you nevertheless decide to buy your own club set, the pro shop of each golf club is offering beginners’ sets."
},
{
"question": "What does golf equipment include?",
"answer": "Each golfer is allowed to have up to 14 clubs in the bag. There are several kinds of clubs – woods (used for drives and long-shots), irons (for fairway play), and putter (used for putting the ball in the hole of the green). In the beginning of your golf career you will lose many balls to water hazards, high grass, or some bush. That is why we recommend you bring enough balls when you start your game at the course. Most pro-shops offer used balls as well. All that beginners, training at the driving range, need is sports shoes, e.g. tennis shoes. However, when you start playing on the course you will need special golf shoes. It is important that you feel comfortable in your shoes, because you will walk seven to ten kilometers in a typical 18-hole game. It is best to choose a light bag with integrated stand. You can carry it or pull it behind you on a trolley. In order to mark the spot where your ball has fallen on the green before lifting it (so that it does not obstruct your co-player’s putting or to clean it), you will need the so-called marker. Some players use a coin, too. When approaching the green the ball often has a high trajectory and leaves a mark on the short grass where it falls (called “a pitch mark”), which obstructs other players’ putting and destroys the green’s surface. That is why the player has to use a pitchfork to repair the pitch mark. In order to avoid calluses on your hands and to have a stronger grip, you will need a golf glove. Right-handers wear it on the left hand, and left-handers – on the right. When you are buying a golf glove make sure it fits you well – it should feel like a second skin on your hand. Tees are used to position the ball higher before the drive, in order to facilitate the shot with the driver or the wood."
},
{
"question": "After I gain some skills, what should I do to play at a golf course?",
"answer": "Use the phone or the Internet to find out whether your local golf club is offering “BGA Green Card” courses, which add theoretic knowledge of golf rules and golf etiquette to the practical lessons. Of course, you can also have private lessons, during which the instructor will teach you everything you need to know about the basic play and theoretical skills. Practice by training the shots, shown by the golf teacher, besides the course lessons. In the end of the course you will sit a test, for which you can prepare by reading the game’s regulations and etiquette rules. Those who successfully pass the test will receive the “BGA Green Card”."
},
{
"question": "What is the structure of the “BGA Green Card” course?",
"answer": "- Theory – read the game’s regulations, or look for illustrated books, so that you can answers the multiple-choice test items. - Course walk – you will be demonstrated and explained everything about proper behavior on the course in real-time conditions. - Practice part – your golf teacher will show you all golf shots and you will be able to practice those under his supervision. - Course play – during the test you will play nine holes, six of which will be evaluated. Practice-play these holes with your golf pro at least once before the test."
},
{
"question": "What rights does the “BGA Green Card” give?",
"answer": "So, you have received your “BGA Green Card” thus demonstrating that you are capable of fast and safe play, and of observing the game’s rules and etiquette. You are welcome to play as a guest and a non-member player in all Bulgarian golf clubs. Guests have to pay a green fee and to book a tee time. Some golf clubs require a specific handicap, and in order to have one at all, you have to be a member of a golf club, which is a member of the Bulgarian Golf Association."
},
{
"question": "What should I do to become a golf club member?",
"answer": "It is most comfortable for you to become a member of a golf club in proximity to where you live, and this club will become your “home club”. By paying your annual membership fee, you acquire the right to play at the course and to use its training facilities. The club you are a member of is obliged to register you in the “BGA Intranet” centralized handicap system with the highest handicap of 54. In this way you will acquire the right to participate in certain tournaments and improve your handicap. With your home club member card you can play at all golf courses in Bulgaria and abroad in exchange of a green fee."
},
{
"question": "Can I play at a golf course without being a member of any golf club?",
"answer": "Yes, you can, but you will have to possess a “BGA Green Card” and to pay a green fee each time, varying from 60 and 180 BGN for 18 holes, depending on the course. However, in this case it will be impossible to keep record of your handicap and you will not be allowed to participate in official tournaments."
},
{
"question": "How can I participate in a golf tournament?",

"question": "How will we know if home nursing is suitable for us?",
"answer": "The service will cater to a broad range of patients. The first will be patients (or the people who care for them) who opt for the service due to time constraints and an aversion to spending large amounts of time getting to and from hospitals, waiting in line for treatment that can otherwise be delivered at home. The second will be patients who have limited mobility and as a matter of necessity, find home nursing a practical solution. And then you have those that simply prefer convalescing in the comfort of their own home."
},
{
"question": "Will my doctor object to us using your service?",
"answer": "Our service, unlike other providers, is part and parcel of the primary care loop involving the patient, physician, hospital and family. A problem does not arise as care protocols are designed in conjunction with your doctor as required. The doctor is also involved in the information loop through our post-visit reports. Our rates are designed with affordability and the quality of the service delivered in mind. The care we offer will be delivered by certified nurses and costs may be higher when compared to a service offered by a non-certified nursing aide. However, if we compare the rates to costs associated with time away from the office, loss in productivity (for caregivers of patients) on top of any costs arising from in-patient treatment you'll find that home nursing is a viable alternative."
},
{
"question": "Are your charges covered by my insurance policies?",
"answer": "More and more policies available in the market do cover home nursing services and those that do not have been known to compensate policy holders when approached. Please speak to your insurance agent for clarification."
},
{
"question": "Why should we recuperate at home as opposed to staying at the hospital?",
"answer": "Research (1) is starting to indicate that depending on the type of illness, patients generally recover sooner in the comfort of home, among familiar surroundings and loved ones. It's a common knowledge that most of us are quite anxious to return home from hospitalization as soon as possible. Some patients on the other hand may be concerned about being away from the hospital but should remember that their doctors will only discharge patients when it is prudent to do so. A point to note also is that some hospitals do not have the luxury of space or funding to properly quarantine acute patients (some of whom suffer from contagious diseases) from in-patients requiring care for non-contagious illnesses. Hospital-borne disease therefore becomes an issue. March issue of Stroke: Journal of the American Heart Association. Yes, all Nurses At Home nurses are state registered nurses who are re-certified each year to ensure that the quality of care is consistently at the highest levels. A point to note is that the relationship we have with our technical partners (medical) ensures that our nurses are equipped and trained in the use of the latest treatment procedures and pharmaceutical products. Our ISO yearly audit probes into the training conducted, competencies achieved and tie back to the quality feedback we ask from every client."

},
{
"question": "Do you provide training to domestic helpers?",
"answer": "Yes, we do provide training to families who are already signed up with a package. This service is provided free of charge to help domestic helpers or caregivers manage costs by taking on some aspects of care provided by our nurses. However, not all procedures handled by trained nurses can be handed over. We would recommend using our training service for caregivers and supporting the caregivers with nurse visits. For clarity, caregivers/domestic helpers can be taught about dietary requirements, some aspects of physiotherapy and steps to prevent bed sores. Catheterization and insertion of Rhyles tubes as examples cannot be handled by caregivers/domestic helpers."
},
{
"question": "Do you provide this service only for specific hospitals?",
"answer": "Not at all. Nurses At Home services are not limited to patients discharged from any one hospital. We have cared for patients from almost every major hospital within the Klang Valley in our 6 years of operation. This includes the biggest private hospitals and many GOVT hospitals like UMMC(PPUM) , HUKM, HKL (GHKL) Hospital Ampang, Hospital Serdang etc. We are recognized as the premier nursing company by all sectors. Discharge planning is a process that maps out the needs of a patient post-hospitalization. It involves your doctor and home nursing staff and may include a physiotherapist and an occupational therapist. Many patients (and their caregivers) today have very little idea as to the special needs they may have upon returning home from the hospital. The process helps to minimize disruption and hastens the return to an individual's activities of daily living (ADL). It also serves to reduce the chances of re-admission to hospitals by assessing the home environment vis-à-vis the patient's needs."
},
{
"question": "Is Nurses At Home a for profit set-up?",
"answer": "Nurses At Home is best described as a social enterprise. We believe that the company has to be a business entity as a matter of necessity, meeting the needs of patients in the best way possible with the means available to us at this point. While we would like to offer community nursing to a much broader base, our reach is limited. We have however, begun discussions with the government on ways and means to establish an outreach program that will benefit those who do not have the means to handle the fees."

{
"question": "Do you only look after the aged?",
"answer": "Our range of services caters to all ages – our youngest is a 3 month infant to our oldest a 101 year old great grandmother!"
},
{
"question": "Do you help fill prescriptions?",
"answer": "Yes, delivery of medication is possible but only with a doctor's prescription. One of the aspects of the care we provide at home is to monitor compliance to medication plans to avoid relapses and deterioration of condition and eventually re-admission to hospital. Assessments are regularly conducted to check a patient's cognitive ability to take the right medication at the right amounts."
},
{
"question": "When can your nurses conduct house visits?",
"answer": "Nurses At Home operating hours are 9.00am - 5.00pm Monday to Saturday. Our administrative offices close on Sunday's and public holidays. However our nursing operations run 24 hours 7 days a week, 364 days a year so once you are our client we will keep to committed care."

Creative Looks – These 3D LUTs are more profound creative looks and effects and are great starting points for all your creative needs. These 3D LUTs have been carefully crafted with a special attention to skin tones and have been designed to work in as many situations as possible (within context). Film emulations – While we believe it’s impossible to truly emulate a specific film stock, these 3D LUTs are much more subtle grading looks emulating general characteristics of certain film stocks. You should use these 3D LUTs whenever a more subtle color grading look is desired. Just as our creative 3D LUTs, these 3D LUTs have been carefully crafted with a special attention to skin tones and have been designed to work in as many situations as possible (within context). You should remember that no matter the way you choose to use Lutify.me 3D LUTs, it’s nearly impossible to manually recreate the subtleties of thousands of individually crafted color transformations each LUT offers. The best way to explore Lutify.me 3D LUTs would be to check our showcase."
},
{
"question": "What do I get when I buy one of Lutify.me products?",
"answer": "The type and number of 3D LUTs included depends on the package you buy.

},
{
"question": "What makes Lutify.me collection of 3D LUTs unique?",
"answer": "We offer industry-standard 3D LUTs only, trusted and used by professionals for better, faster and easier color correction, color grading and creative photo looks. If it’s not used professionally we don’t sell it. ALL of our photo effects and film emulations have been used professionally on sets for names such as Lacoste, Adidas, M.A.C, Lexus, Gillette, Bourjois, Pupa, Speedo, Fornarina, Nudie Jeans, Wrangler, Timberland, Gottex, and Lee. We meticulously tweaked the color science of all of our LUTs to deliver the best looking photos possible, while retaining organic cinema-quality looks for your videos. In practical and simplified terms, a LUT is a highly sophisticated look which you can apply to your image or footage in order to correct it or give it a distinctive, creative, starting point for your final color grade. However, 3D LUTs are much more than just looks. LUTs allow you to overcome the limitations of standard color grading tools by altering thousands of individually crafted color transformations per LUT. Simply put, it’s nearly impossible to manually recreate the look of a LUT."
},
{
"question": "Why use 3D LUTs when there are other photo effects/filters software solutions?",
"answer": "Since LUTs allow you to overcome the limitations of standard color grading tools by altering thousands of individually crafted color transformations per LUT, it’s quite simple the most advanced starting point for your color grade. More importantly, it’s nearly impossible to manually recreate the look of a LUT. You might be able to recreate the broad aspects of the color science behind a LUT, but you won’t be able to recreate thousands of individually crafted color transformations found within the LUT. Therefore, LUTs allow you to achieve sophisticated looks otherwise impossible with standard photo effects/filters software solutions. Color correction is the process of manually tweaking your image or footage in order to find a correct balance between exposure, color temperature, contrast and light. Typically, color correction would require you to correct the white balance, adjust the shadows, midtones and highlights, contrast and set the overall balance for your image and footage. 3D LUTs can help you normalize your footage, for example remapping it from log space to Rec.709, however their biggest strength is for setting a creative overall look for the image or the footage, or emulating a film stock. Color grading is the creative process or manipulating your images or footage so that further enhancements are made to image’s color, contrast, lighting within the image, color gradients and more. Film stock emulation is also done at the color grading stage. Simply put, while color correction purpose is to normalize the image or the footage, color grading purpose it to creatively change it. 3D LUTs can be used as “AS IS” looks for color grading, however we encourage you to use them as your starting point to further enhance your images since not all images are created equal."
},
{
"question": "What is the difference between 1D and 3D LUTs?",
"answer": "From a simplified point of view, LUTs simply take an input value from the source material and re-map it to a new output in order to create a new look. 1D LUTs may be useful for setting contrast, the white point of a display, or overall color balance adjustments but they do little to convey the complexities needed for creating a good looking image when grading. 3D LUTs overcome the limitations of 1D LUTs by placing color and luma in a 3D space, a much more representative way of how color works in real world. 3D LUTs are much more useful for capturing and relaying complex color grades than a 1D LUTs. All of Lutify.me LUTs are 3D LUTs. Having said that, please bear in mind, that some LUTs work better with slightly over or under exposed photos and footage. Specific instructions for each LUT can be found in the documentation inside your package. If you’re aiming for a warmer look for example, you should still shoot with a correct white balance and than apply one of the warmer LUTs from your package. If you use incorrect white balance for the type of lighting you’re using, you’ll not be able to anticipate Lutify’s output. Lutify delivers expected results for photos and footage with correct white balance. However, some LUTs will work best if used in low or high contrast scenes. Specific instructions for each LUT can be found in the documentation inside your package. My package offers support and updates for 1-Year."

"question": "Is there a midi sequencer that can read in the chord information (maybe as text, maybe as \"lyrics\") and print them out along with the notation for the melody?",
"answer": "A: No, I am sorry. The information is encoded and stored within special controllers (usually on channel 10). It isn't visible for sequencers or other MIDI software. Naturally, RMCA Pro can read the information and can show the chords. Q: When I have saved a song done in RMCA Pro as a MIDI file there are some unknown controllers and other messages within the file. Some MIDI files also cannot be edited with a sequencer. A: You should think about the material with which you have created your MIDI song. It was a STYLE. At creating a style from a MIDI file a software must do a lot and has to insert special MIDI messages. So, at the end of each style part the messages for setting the controllers 64,66,123 to zero (sustain=0, hold=0, all notes off). Please take a look into the event list of a voice with your sequencer software. There you will find a lot of instrument settings etc. which you would have for example to delete at first, if you would like to make permanent changes. In addition there can be a problem with \"long notes\". RMCA Pro somtimes must \"cut\" sounding voices to work correctly. Therefore a sequencer perhaps cannot find within the MIDI file corresponding note-off-message."
},
{
"question": "Q: For instance, can you import a melody, and automatically put music to it with RMCA Pro?",
"answer": "A: NO. However, you can build a song (record a chord sequence in real time in which an external keyboard isn't needed ! ), using a style and then overdup it with a melody. The result can be saved as a standard MIDI file (RMCA Pro). Q: I have changed my MIDI configuration and added a device. Now RMCA presents an error message. A: If there are problems with MIDI-devices then you should select from RMCA Pro's main menu: Help -> Reset RMCA Pro or you can delete the file \"rmca.ini\" respectively \"maas.ini\" (to find within the program's directory, e.g. ...\\RMCA respectively ...\\MAAS). Now restart the tool. However, if you have deleted the ini-file then you have to switch the program free again, using your registration information! Q: When I select \"Options/Send Chord Codes: and then \"File/Export MIDI\" and try to export the generated chords, I get a MIDI file with two tracks, one containing the original melody, the other containing a long list of CONTROLLER commands but not a single note. A: This is OK. The long list of controller commands ARE THE CHORD CODES! As described the software implements CODES (not NOTES) into a MIDI file. These codes represent the different chords (only accessable with RMCA Pro). If you open the stored MIDI file (with RMCA Pro) and play it, you should see the created chords within the keyboard window. Please note: \"send chord codes\" only equips a MIDI file with special controller values. If chord codes are stored in a MIDI file you can use for example the melody Ad-Lib function to jam to the music (\"Options/Receive Chord Codes\" (main menu) must be activated (default)). Notes cannot be stored because the software doesn't \"know\" the rythm or the \"feeling\" of playing chords. However, you can add chords (and other notes) \"live\" to your melodies using only C-maj keys (C-E-G ...)."
},
{
"question": "Q: When you generate the chords to a midi file, do you automatically disregard the notes in the drum track (usually track 10) or do I have to manually erase that track before I input the midi file so the notes of that track are not counted?",
"answer": "A: The chord controllers (in general) don't influence the notes of a track or other controllers. So you have to do nothing as to decide whether the chords shall be recognized / implemented into a song or not (main menu: options - Send Chord Codes, Receive Chord Codes (default)). Q: Where are the options for the chord recognition and the style formation explained ( mean the options that say no chord, chordnotes etc. and the one that says major, simple etc). NC = no change (for intros and endings) 1 = only transposing; 2 = transposing and selecting major, minor, 7th etc. 3 = the notes, that represents a chord will be changed (default!) 4 = ... (suspect convert mode) 5 = ... (needfull if no.3 doesn't give good results!) 6 = all notes will be transposed into C-major chords (very clear). It's to difficult to explain this function, which is \"the heart\" of the style maker. You should try different selections with your MIDI material to get a feeling about the convertion process. Q: Can I operate the fills, basic, extended, etc."
},
{
"question": "Q: How do I connect an external keyboard perfectly to RMCA Pro?",
"answer": "1. Make sure, that you have selected the right MIDI In- and Out- ports. (RMCA Pro's main-menu: -> Windows -> Global Settings -> Button \"MIDI\" near the bottom of the window). Chord Keys: C C-E-G-C C-m C-Eb-G-C C-7 C-E-G-Bb C-m7 C-Eb-G-Bb C-dim C-Eb-Gb-A C-sus4 C-F-G-C C-9 C-E-G-D C-5b C-E-Gb-Bb C-M7 C-E-G-B C-aug C -E-G#-C C-6 C-E-G-A C-mM7 C-Eb-G-B C-m6 C-Eb-G-A C-m9 C-Eb-G-D C-m5b C-Eb-Gb-Bb C-aug7 C-E-G#-Bb C-sus7 C-F-G-Bb. You must know that chords are recognized within time ranges that are specified under Global Settings \"Quantize\" (default: 1/4 measure). At this the MIDI input routine simply (and only) reacts on MIDI-note-on AND MIDI-note-off messages and needs min. 3-4 pushed keys to identify a chord. This is called: 3-4 keys have to be pushed AND holded before the next (var: 1/4) measure begins and the chord shall change. So it is very important that you - if necessary - SWITCH OFF the transpose-mode, the aftertouch-mode, the accompaniment-mode and the split of your keyboard if necessary. It should react as a normal keyboard with 6,7 or 8 octaves. Think about this, that RMCA Pro needs non of the keyboard features, but only notes (tones - nothing else!). 4. If the keyboard doesn't create the right chords after making the above described selections then there may be a hardware problem or a MIDI configuration problem. In this case please note: MIDI realtime processing needs SHORT MIDI cables and NON interferences between MIDI-In-port and MIDI-out-port! The software uses only standard MIDI routines of the Windows® MCI, and it was especially designed, to work even with simple and low-expensive MIDI-controllers. So, if you want to check whether your keyboard at all transmits the needed tones (MIDI-note-on and MIDI-note-off messages) it should be at first connected directly into the computer's sound card, using the corresponding MIDI-In-port. And don't forget to dissable the accompaniment mode and other special modes of your keyboard! Q: I downloaded RMCA and installed it, connected my keyboard to my soundcards midi interface and configured the keyboard as you recommend. When I open a midi file in RMCA, the sound comes out perfectly from my keyboard. But when I press a key on my arranger keyboard, the sound is delayed for aprox. half a second, and sometimes it isn't played at all. aa) Make sure that all arrangement functions of your keyboard are switched off. bb) Connect the keyboard's MIDI-out port directly into your computer's sound card and use the card and NOT your keyboard for MIDI out! Disconnect the keyboard's MIDI-in port from your sound cards MIDI-out port (use only 1 MIDI cable: Keyboard -> PC MIDI-in). cc) Now try out whether your played chords are recognized by RMCA Pro. If yes, then I see no chance to install the configuration that you have described (this may depend on your sound card or on your keyboard). If no, you would have to find out what happened on the way from your keyboard to your sound card."

{
"question": "Q: Where can I find further information about older versions of RMCA and MAAS?",
"answer": "A: Additional and perhaps useful information about RMCA Pro and MAAS can be found on the old web pages of 1998 - 2003 ( RMCA Pro Samples ). However, the older versions of RMCA Pro can not be compared with the current version. In particular, they lack the processing of foreign styles and all functions for generating and playing automatic chord progressions, mute BASS and/or GUITARS for practicing, the Style-Playlist functions etc."

{
"question": "You are here: Home FAQs Bible Questions and answers about Jesus Christ What does \"only begottn Son\" mean?",
"answer": "Some say that the word translated, “only begotten”, in such phrases as, “The only begotten Son which is in the bosom of the Father” (John 1:14), merely means, “beloved,” and should be so translated especially in all passages relating to the Eternal Son—the Second Person of the Divine Trinity."
},
{
"question": "Do you think this is so?",
"answer": "My own conviction is other, though I know esteemed brethren who maintain it. I doubt indeed if such an opinion would ever have been broached, had it not been for the mistaken notion that to apply such a term as “only begotten” or even “begotten” to our Lord in a past eternity, necessitates the thought of a time before the begetting, and therefore must infringe on the eternity, and therefore on the true Deity, of the Son. This, however, is only so, if we insist on defining and explaining Divine relations by the human, whereas, the latter are the vaguest shadows of the Eternal and Divine: as soon measure the fixed stars with a foot-rule. The same objection applies to the terms “Father” and “Son”. Such terms do imply priority and subsequency in earthly relations, but there cannot be priority or the reverse in the case of Eternal Persons."
},
{
"question": "The same objection would apply to the epithet, “the Word,” for does not such a term necessitate to our minds a time before the word was uttered, and when consequently the word had no existence?",
"answer": "was reading only the other day two writings, one by a denier of the Deity of the Son, the other by a denier of His Eternal Sonship, who both refused to believe, because their minds forsooth could not comprehend the possibility of such things. There must be no unsolved mysteries to this type of person, though one wonders how such can believe at all in the God of Revelation, for surely His existence is beyond their comprehension."
},
{
"question": "Such might also lay to heart the limitation imposed by the Lord Himself, “No man knoweth the Son save the Father.” However, to return to those who, while holding firmly the Eternal Sonship of Christ, yet refuse the term “only begotten,”* and substitute for it “well-beloved.” This is indeed a secondary meaning springing, as we see, directly from the primary, forwho is more beloved than an only child?",
"answer": "Now although “only-begotten” is the literal translation of the Greek word, it would be permissible, under certain conditions to abandon this—the etymological meaning—if usage justified it. But if the predominant usage agrees with the original philological meaning, then we must keep to that. That this is the case here, can, I think, be clearly shown by a reference to our three chief sources of information (not to mention Latin ecclesiastical writers who translate—uni-genitus “only begotten”)—the Hebrew Scriptures, the Septuagint Greek version, and the New Testament. (a) The Hebrew word, “yahidh,” occurs twelve times in the Old Testament, and is translated in A. V.: twice, “my darling”; margin “only one” (Psalm 22:20; 35: 17); twice “desolate” or “solitary” (Psalm 25:16; Psalm 68:6); once “only beloved” (Proverbs 4:3); and six times “only son” (Genesis 22:2, 12, 16, of Isaac; Jeremiah 6:26. Amos 8:10, and Zechariah 12: 10); and “only child” (Judges 2:34, of Jepthah’s daughter); and with all these the R.V. agrees. (b) The Septuagint translates the two Genesis, the Proverbs, and the three prophetic occurrences by “beloved,” and the remaining five by “only child” or “son” (monogenës). It may be added that the LXX in their translation of Genesis 22:2 have, “thy loved son, whom thou lovest,” the tautology of which translation might alone have raised a doubt as to its correctness. (c) In the New Testament the word “mono- genes” occurs nine times: once of Isaac (Hebrews 11:17)t and thrice of only children (Luke 7:12; Luke 8:42; Luke 9:38), and five times of the Son of God (John 1:14, 18; John 3:16-18 and 1 John 4:9), translated in each case both in A.V. and R.V. as “Only Begotten.” Lest anyone should imagine that this is the ordinary word for “beloved”, when applied to the Lord, I would mention the significant fact that on the two occasions on which the Father bore audible witness from heaven to the Lord as His beloved Son (Matthew 3:17; Matthew 17:5), He does not use the word we are considering (monogens), but the ordinary word for “beloved” (agapetos). Surely these two occasions would have been specially suitable for the use of the word “only-begotten,” if the Lord’s Sonship depended, as is falsely taught in some quarters to-day, on His incarna tion."

"question": "What is hard water scale?",
"answer": "Hard water scale is that white, crusty mineral deposit that clogs up your plumbing fixtures, water heaters, humidifiers, ice makers, dishwashers and washing machines."
},
{
"question": "Under what conditions does scaling take place?",
"answer": "In any application where water is heated or cooled, scale buildup is a potential problem, regardless of the hardness level of the water. However, scale will build faster in hard water areas."
},
{
"question": "How does scale affect dish machines?",
"answer": "Scale buildup in the final rinse causes clogged solenoid valves, water leaks, and clogged rinse arms, affecting results."
},
{
"question": "How does scale affect the heating elements in booster heaters and steamers?",
"answer": "In just a few months, scale can cause reduced effectiveness or even burn out of heating elements."
},
{
"question": "How does scale form in ice machines and what is the impact?",
"answer": "Minerals become concentrated in the sump, eventually exceeding the water saturation point. This leads to scale buildup problems on the inlet side, restricting water flow for defrosting or keeping coils clean. This, in turn, causes ice buildup on the coils."
},
{
"question": "What do Scaltrol products do?",
"answer": "The Scaltrol scale control system prevents the buildup of scale in equipment such as booster heaters, hot water heaters, steamers, and ice machines. Our hard water solution will even begin to remove accumulated scale buildup over time. It can be used in both cold and hot water applications. The Scaltrol water treatment system utilizes a patented dispensing head that accurately controls the amount of scale preventative being added. The compound is safe and certified under NSF Standard 60. With our hard water scale solution, there are no moving parts and no costly circuitry."
},
{
"question": "What are the benefits of using the Scaltrol Scale Control system?",
"answer": "Reduced water and energy costs, increased equipment performance, reduced equipment maintenance and/or replacement downtime."
},
{
"question": "Where should Scaltrol water treatment systems be installed?",
"answer": "Into the water lines leading to steamers, booster heaters, and ice machines or any other application experiencing scale buildup problems."
},
{
"question": "What do the product names (SC-50, SC-100, SC-500, HSC-50, HSC-100) refer to?",
"answer": "The SC models are for cold water applications using a clear sump. The HSC models are for hot water applications and use a high pressure composite sump. The SC-50 and HSC-50 models treat approximately 50,000 gallons of water before the cartridge needs to be replaced. The SC-100 and HSC-100 units treat double that amount: approximately 100,000 gallons of water. The SC-500 treats approximately 500,000 gallons of water."
},
{
"question": "When should the cartridges be replaced?",
"answer": "On the SC-50, SC-100 and SC-500 models, the cartridge should be replaced when the compound reaches the bottom. On the HSC-50 and HSC-100, you must remove the sump to check the compound level."
},
{
"question": "What is the impact of using a hard water treatment system on energy costs?",
"answer": "As little as 1/8” of scale buildup can increase energy consumption by up to 39%. If you consider the cost to heat water for the final rinse, these added energy costs for scale can more than pay for the cost of the Scaltrol scale control system in just a few short months. When you factor in the cost of a new booster heater and the frantic downtime involved, the economic case gets stronger and stronger!"

"answer": "Yes and No. While you are on the version that introduced Network Probe Gen 2, you must also ensure that the ‘ConnectWise Network Detection’ solution is kept up-to-date, via the Solution Center. Q2: I’ve just updated to [Automate 12] Patch 10, updated to Gen2, and I cannot see my ESX hosts (For Virtualization Manager)!"
},
{
"question": "Q3: Can I update all my probes to Gen2 with an ‘easy button’?",
"answer": "No. There is currently no feature, or future-plan, to mass-update all your probes Gen2."
},
{
"question": "It doesn't upgrade all my probes when I update to Patch 10, does it?",
"answer": "Installing Patch 10 will not auto-upgrade your Gen1 probes to Gen2. You can upgrade your probes at your own pace. Q5: As soon as I enable a Gen2 probe, a discovery scan immediately starts. I’d rather configure some settings first, and then manually start the discovery scan."
},
{
"question": "How would I do that?",
"answer": "Network Probe defaults was also introduced in Patch 10. They can be found under System > Configuration > Network Probe. If you do not want you probes to immediately scan, adjust the default scan windows to something like… 10pm (start time) & 3am (end time), or alternatively, set the Scan Frequency to On-Demand."

{
"question": "Can I roll back to (or re-install) a Gen 1 probe?",
"answer": "No. Assuming you are on at least Patch 10, once you have promoted a Gen1 probe to Gen2, or just installed a Gen2 probe, there is no rolling back to Gen1."
},
{
"question": "Explain it for me?",
"answer": "The 1st check is NETBIOS. This checks to see if port 139 is open. This gives us a ‘Missing Device’ count. The 2nd check is a SNMP check against the device to determine its MAC address. The 3rd (and optional) check is the ARP Table scanning. This is not enabled out of the box but can be enabled via the Network Probe Setting, ‘Enable MAC Address Scanning’. NOTE: Just like with the old Gen1 probe… A MAC Address is required to uniquely identify the device - if the probe cannot determine a MAC address, then it will not create a Network Device."
},
{
"question": "Q10: When you say “SNMP Check” … what do you mean?",
"answer": "If we can communicate with a device using SNMP (community string) we walk the device’s MIB for 2 specific OIDs (Object Identifiers) to obtain the MAC. If this check does not return a MAC address, then we will not create a Network Device entry for it. Check 2 (returns my MAC address - and the one that will be used in the networkdevices database table)."
},
{
"question": "Q11: I heard something about the Network Probe being more focused around the location… Can you elaborate on that?",
"answer": "During pilot, we re-worked how the probe is associated to the location, and now the location has more of a role to play for Network Probes. This was a huge undertaking, and ‘laid the groundwork’ for implementing many other enhancements already on the roadmap. A good use-case that this solves for today is when a probe agent stops functioning, and cannot be brought back online, e.g. : a BSOD. Should a probe agent become unrecoverable, then you can now elect a different agent to be a probe at the same location, as the settings are now tied to the location and not the agent itself, so the new probe will ‘pick up where the old one left off’. Q12: We haven't used the network probe much until this release and it's bringing up some questions now."
},
{
"question": "So, should we be enabling SNMP on almost all networking devices?",
"answer": "For best results with Gen2 you must have SNMP enabled on SNMP compatible devices. Doing that will set you up for success. No doubt about it!! From Automate’s perspective… You can’t really say you are ‘managing devices’ unless you have SNMP connectivity to them! Q13: The new network map is cool, but it doesn't show nearly everything the probe sees."
},
{
"question": "Is that normal?",
"answer": "On Automate 12 Patch 10 (build 451), minimum. On at least v1.1.1.6 of LTNet, (distributed in 'ConnectWise Network Detection' via Solution Center). Communication to the device, via SNMP, is returning the MAC Address. SNMPv3 is still an option with the new Network Probe. You can configure that at a probe level. We recommend that you set that if all your devices, that are configured for SNMPv3, are using the same authentication/encryption passwords and methods. Q15: I'm seeing more devices in my network device list and my computers list then I am seeing on my network map."
},
{
"question": "Why is that?",
"answer": "The ‘Disable Probe’ command is a database focused command, so the Control Center may not acknowledge the change until you ‘Reload System Cache’ & then refresh the Computers view. probeconfiguration (& many other probe**** tables)."
},
{
"question": "Do you have any updated documentation on how to use the new probe?",
"answer": "We've upgraded the probes on in our Automate, however, now when I try to run network probe commands (Scans or re-detects) nothing seems to happen. The Probe Commands windows doesn't show anything either. I used to be able to force this with the old one."
},
{
"question": "Is anyone else having issues with the new probe not picking up vsphere servers?",
"answer": "We have deployed at 2 clients purged devices and redetect and it seems like it skips them. I can see in the plugin_vm log where it is trying to use the vsphere credentials against devices but not the actual vsphere servers it needs to detect. It seems to be skipping them and they don't show up anywhere. We can ping them from the probe machine. Got a ticket open with support. They said we had to enable SNMP on the vsphere host. I am not 100% sure this needs to be done but we did anyway. Still did not work. I can SNMP walk the device from the probe server and get to the ESX OID's listed from above. I can confirm the behaviors @avdlaan describes: scans/re-detections don't actually seem to be running when I attempt to trigger them manually, and my Probe Commands window remains empty even after attempting to initiate a scan or re-detection. Following the steps outlined here for upgrading from Gen1 to Gen2, I purged network devices from a probe for a selected client, then deactivated the Gen1 probe. When I re-activated and went through the Gen2 wizard, the probe functionality returned, but none of the options to perform manual actions appear to be working, and the Probe Commands window is empty. I have tried initiating a rescan via the \"Play\" button on the Device Discovery pane in the Overview screen and also tried via Commands > Probe > Initiate Network Scan and Commands > Probe > Run Device Detection. I also ensured the probe scan settings were set to have Only run discovery in scan window = UNCHECKED. I want to make sure I'm not missing something regarding manually initiating scans/re-detections, as well as the Probe Commands window appearing blank."
},
{
"question": "Finally, I am interested in finding out what benefit we gain from activating the MAC Address Scanning feature?",
"answer": "I have seen the documentation reviewing how it fits into discovery as the optional third step. But I haven't been able to determine what that third step of scanning the MAC addresses actually accomplishes."
},
{
"question": "Does it allow more reliable agent push to detected devices?",
"answer": "We face multiple client probes (Gen1 and Gen2) in which devices are mis-detected (Windows desktops appearing as \"Manufacturer = Roku\" or \"Manufacturer = Apple, Inc.\") or simply not allowing agent install (multiple VM servers at one client, for instance). If enabling MAC address scanning will remedy one or more of these situations, that's a strong argument for turning it on."
},
{
"question": "If it is intended to perform some other function ... what might that be?",
"answer": "Yeah mate, we are having the same problem. Lenovo (IBM) servers at the moment. I think they are both 6.7 if I recall what my guys said. No fix I am aware of. I finally got support lined up to talk to today. The servers I am trying to pick up are 6.5 u1 and 6.5 u2. Talked with support. Shame on me for not trying - but they had me check the box on the probe computer. On the network probe, settings, Scan tab. Check the Enable MAC scanning. (What JosefNT mentioned above) I did this, restarted the agent, initiated a scan and they are now being detected. By turning this on it basically turns on the old probe 1 scanning functionality. It uses the MAC address table from the ARP cache on the probe device for building the network device list. I was told the reasoning for not having it on was the old probe picked up things you could not manage. Their take was if you can't manage it why have it in there. I am looking at it a little differently. I want to see it even if I can't manage it so I don't miss something. I am leaning toward just checking the box and being done vs having to enable SNMP on all my servers. That would be a ton of work for my team for no benefit. If someone has a different take or thinks I am missing something, let me know. Glad it worked for you. Unfortunately that doesn't work if the probe is not in the same subnet as the esxi server, so for us, no dice. I have decided to turn Mac address scanning on everywhere, because like you, I don't want an automate distorted view of what's there, I want what is really there. I can see why the MAC thing would not work for remote subnets. I forgot to add - the tech told me that Patch 12 has some fixes for the new probe - we are implementing that this weekend. He also said they were having issues where if you did not have SNMP enabled on your switches - it could possible cause issues with detection as well. sounds strange but that is what they are telling me. Hopefully the new patch fixes the remote stuff but not sure. I asked support but figured I'd post here also. In the Gen 2 probe it looks like there is only one checkbox, Enable Remote Agent Deployment. The docs at https://docs.connectwise.com/ConnectWise_Automate/ConnectWise_Automate_Documentation/070/175/120/030 say it will try to install the agent when a PC is next scanned."

"question": "Is there any way to allow (only) the manual push via password (commands/probe/deploy Automate agents) or has that essentially been removed in favor of automatic push?",
"answer": "We have typically either manually pushed, or set up a domain login script to install the agent if we want it automatic. That way it isn't trying to install on any other devices on the network, third party PCs, etc. Edit: Disregard my question. I was pointed to Deployment Manager. I had seen Deployment Manager a while back and then totally forgot about it since it essentially duplicated the probe feature. Interesting it still refers to its settings as “probe” which is apparently not related to the gen 2 probe."
},
{
"question": "Not sure if anyone has run into this issue before?",
"answer": "Seems to be happening accross all our gen2 probes. Big fan of the Gen2 probe. So good work. I've got one question about monitoring snmp or Collecting SNMP info using emplates. Hope you can give me an example so I can use it in my search to knowledge because there's no info on the documentation site from Automate. A Walk on the firewall shows me a ton of information but the information has a lot of variables. So there's no static OID to monitor. There's a Index table showing me indexing numbers for the next tables. The next table is the name table. Relating to the index above. The next table is the Status. Also relating on the index above. Is there a way to do this: Look for the name in the Name table. Find the index related to this name, find the status related to the index. 3 Find status from this value with the related index. I guess this should be able with the SNMP Collection Templates and Sub Procedures."

"question": "Having problems signing up for someone's signup sheet?",
"answer": "Maybe one of these answers can help. This is a feature very high up on the priority list, but it just didn't make it in before launch."
},
{
"question": "What's so tough you ask?",
"answer": "Well, since an account isn't required to sign up, it's tough to lock down the edits and deletes to only the person who originally created them. Don't worry though, we have some ideas on how to take care of this, and we'll address it as soon as possible!"
},
{
"question": "Are you seeing a name of someone you don't recognize?",
"answer": "There's a few possibilities as to what is going on. By design, signup sheets can be accessed by anyone who was sent a link to it. So, most likely, whomever it is was sent a link, and signed up just like you."
},
{
"question": "Is their name misspelled or confusing?",
"answer": "There's a good chance they're on this page too, reading up on why they can't go back in and modify it! Nothing, really. And this can be a good thing - suppose a couple of your non-tech savvy friends or relatives can't, or are unwilling to use the site, you could enter their signup for them. Or, if you're all hanging out together, it might be easier to just have one person sign up the group. Of course, this also means you can sign up someone without their permission. I know, I know, it'd be really funny to sign up Steve to bring potato chips, given the \"Great Chip Disaster of '05\". And, truth be told, we couldn't prevent you. Just know that doing this makes you a meanie. And no one likes a meanie. No one."
},
{
"question": "Stuck while creating a signup sheet of your own?",
"answer": "Sorry about that, despite our best efforts to streamline the process, there's still some work to be done. If you didn't save, or later lost, the link to your signup sheet we gave you when you first created your signup, don't worry. As long as you still have the editor or the signup sheet itself still open, you're safe. The link is the same as the URL (commonly called the web address) of the signup sheet. You'll find the URL at the top of your browser window, and it'll look something like this: https://bringthecups.com/abcd1234. Note, if the URL ends with \"?edit\", you'll want to remove that before sharing the link! If you lost your link AND closed the editor and/or the signup sheet, you're not out of luck yet. Web browsers typically keep a history of sites you visit, and your signup sheet is probably saved there. On desktop computers, most browsers will show you your browsing history when you press \"Ctrl + h\" on the keyboard. On mobile browsers, there's either a book icon, or an ellipsis (\"...\") icon you click that will take you to your history (note: on iPhones, after clicking the book icon, you'll likely need to click a clock icon to view your history). Once you've recovered the editor page or the signup sheet from your browser's history, you can follow the steps in the first paragraph. If you lost your link, closed all your browser windows, and don't have, or can't find, your link in your browser's history, all hope isn't lost yet, but we're getting close. If you weren't very far along in creating your signup, your best bet is probably to just start over (and save the new link!). If this would result in a large loss of time, please contact us! and we'll try & help you recover it! Because we don't require an account to make a signup sheet, we don't have a way to associate a signup sheet with its original creator. Instead, we generate a random link for the signup, and ask you to keep it safe. Later, once you're ready to publish your signup sheet, you can share this link with whomever you like. Later, we plan on introducing optional accounts that will let us provide a dashboard for you that will list all your created signup sheets - a great feature if you're going to be creating multiple or recurring signups! That depends mostly on what feature you're looking for. To the right of each signup sheet item, or underneath them if you're on mobile, are several buttons that let you do things such as add a checklist of items or switch to a paid signup sheet item (coming soon). If you're looking for a feature that's not there, chances are we don't have it. If this is the case, please let us know what you were looking for - we're always looking for new ideas or features to add! The limit of 10 signup sheet items per sheet was added to keep our storage costs under control. In the future, we have plans of added premium features that will allow things such as unlimited signup sheet items. The assumption is that once a signup is published, it will be available for other people to sign up for. So, if you were able to modify it after publishing it, it could lead to lots of confusion as items change as, or after, people sign up for them. As an example, imagine a scenario where you sign up to bring the cups to a party, and later, when you arrive at the party, the host asks \"where's the cake you promised?\". You pull up your phone and review the signup, and sure enough, there you are, signed up for cake. Bad. Very bad. And that's the issue - if the host published the signup, then changed \"bring the cups\" to \"bring the cake\", you'd have no idea your signup was changed! If you really, really need to change your signup sheet after you've published it, you can contact us and we'll do our best to help you out. Be warned however, whenever we \"unpublish\" or edit a published signup sheet, any existing sign ups will be wiped out! There are probably lots of different ways you talk to your friends and family online, and most likely, they're aren't all in the same place. And, more and more, email is everyone's least favorite way of communicating. So, instead of forcing you to collect everyone's email addresses and re-typing them here, we figured we'd give you the tools to share the signup sheets however you like, and you can take care of the rest."

"question": "Q: What is the difference between Mint Box and C9 Box?",
"answer": "A mint box generally has no noticeable flaws. This doesn't mean it is a C10 box, but that it doesn't have any significant damage to the box. It still may have wear to the window, and a small amount of wear to the box that is noticeable upon close inspection. A C9 box is still considered very displayable and may have a kink, ding, minor fray to an edge, etc. The box is still case fresh and unopened with factory sealed tape on both sides. A mint box also includes professional wrapping, to protect against dust and damage when stored in your collection. A c9 box does not receive this special treatment. The TOYSOURCE holds the highest integrity when selecting a specific grade to fill an order. However box grading is very subjective and we do not guarantee our grading standards and all customers will be the same. Therefore if a customer is not satisfied with the box condition they receive they may return the package and pay for additional postage to send out another piece, based on their request. We also will not accept any requests for a C10 box, as by nature all boxes are flawed and a C10 box exhibits no flaws."

"question": "Is anodized aluminum NSF certified?",
"answer": "Yes. Lorin ClearMatt® products meet NSF/ANSI 51 Standards for surfaces with food contact. Lorin ColorIn® and Classic Colors meet NSF/ANSI Splash Zone 1 Standards for surfaces other than the direct food zone that is subject to routine splashing or spillage. Cleaning anodized aluminum is easy with the right technique. One recommended method is to use an abrasive cleaning sponge with mild dish washing liquid. Do not use harsh acidic or alkaline cleaners because they may negatively impact the finish. Use solvents with care as they may stain the finish. Regardless of the technique, be sure to try a test area first. For more detailed information, obtain a copy of Care of Aluminum, The Aluminum Association."
},
{
"question": "Can anodized aluminum be cleaned with an alkaline solution, pH of 10 or greater?",
"answer": "Factors such as concentration of the detergent solution, duration of exposure, and temperature will influence the results. If the anodized aluminum is cleaned at room temperature and promptly rinsed with clean water, then there should be no problem. If cleaned at an elevated temperature or with prolonged exposure without rinsing, then the cleaning solution would start to attack the anodic oxide and etch the metal. Mild soap is generally preferable to acidic or alkaline detergents for routine maintenance cleaning."
},
{
"question": "How often should I clean an anodized aluminum surface?",
"answer": "It helps to maintain the beauty of the surface if it is at least washed with a mild soap and rinsed when surface dirt becomes apparent. We recommend at least an annual cleaning."
},
{
"question": "Can I weld anodized aluminum?",
"answer": "Yes. Anodized aluminum can be welded after anodizing. Because most welding processes require electrical conductivity, the anodic coating must be ground away where the weld will be applied. The recommended welding techniques include TIG Welding, Laser Welding or the Pulse Technique. The use of 5356 welded rod is also recommended to minimize the color difference of the weld and the sheet, though some discoloration will still occur. Customers have also had positive results after making slight modifications to the design so that the weld is on a non-visual component of their finished product, or by lightly touching up the weld with a metallic pigmented paint."
},
{
"question": "Can anodizing hide scratches on the surface of the aluminum?",
"answer": "The usual rule of thumb is that if you can feel a scratch by rubbing your fingernail across the surface of the aluminum, you will be able to see the scratch after anodizing. It is always recommended that the anodizer and customer establish visual quality requirements before the anodizing process takes place."
},
{
"question": "Can I use my existing tooling to fabricate anodized aluminum?",
"answer": "Yes. Fabricating pre-anodized aluminum is very similar to other metals with slight adjustments required in air bending with a press brake or the stroke and tooling adjustments in a stamping or blanking operation."
},
{
"question": "What is the minimum order quantity of a coil anodized aluminum product?",
"answer": "Stocked Anodized Finished Goods Inventory: The minimum order quantity for stocked anodized finished goods inventory is 1,000 lbs or the smallest coil available. Non-Stocked Anodized Inventory: Lorin requires a minimum of two machine lengths for non-stocked anodized inventory. The net weight will vary dependent upon the gauge of the aluminum specified. Custom Metal Purchase Order: The minimum order quantity as specified by our supplier is required. However, our Inside Sales staff will do their best to provide you with the quantities you require."
},
{
"question": "What are an Architectural Class I and Class II Anodize Coating?",
"answer": "Class I. High performance anodic finish used in exterior applications receiving periodic maintenance such as curtain walls. Minimum coating thickness of 0.700 mils (18 microns). Class II. Commercial anodic coatings used in interior applications or exterior applications receiving regularly-scheduled cleaning and maintenance such as store fronts. Minimum coating thickness of 0.400 mils (10 microns)."
},
{
"question": "Are there different kinds of anodizing?",
"answer": "There are many different types of anodizing. When we talk about anodizing, we generally are talking about sulfuric acid anodizing that produces a porous oxide layer and the most common anodizing process. There are other anodizing processes where other electrolytes are used such as chromic acid, phosphoric acid and sulfuric-boric acid. Using these different electrolytes produces oxide layers with different properties than those produced with sulfuric acid."
},
{
"question": "How do you color anodized aluminum?",
"answer": "Organic and Inorganic Dyes: The freshly anodized metal is immersed in a solution that contains dissolved dyes either using an organic or inorganic compound. The porous anodic coating absorbs the dye compound. The intensity, saturation and hue of the color is controlled by using various process conditions. Colors requiring organic dye compounds are not UV stable and should be used for interior applications only. Colors requiring an inorganic dye compound can be used for exterior applications. Electrolytic Coloring (a.k.a. “two-step”): After anodizing, the metal is immersed in a bath containing an inorganic metal salt compound. Electrical current is applied which deposits the metal salt compound into the anodic coating using tightly controlled processing conditions. Electrolytic coloring is UV fade resistant and recommended for exterior applications."
},
{
"question": "What does it mean to chemically brighten the aluminum sheet?",
"answer": "Chemical brightening is a process for increasing the specularity or brightness of aluminum by leveling the microscopic roughness or “peaks and valleys” on the surface of the aluminum."
},
{
"question": "Does anodizing affect the mechanical properties of aluminum?",
"answer": "Mechanical properties of aluminum, such as ultimate and yield strength, along with percent elongation, have been tested after anodizing without exhibiting any significant difference in the strength of the aluminum."
},
{
"question": "What anodize coating thickness should I specify for my product?",
"answer": "In general, thicker coatings are used for products to be used outside or in corrosive environments, and thinner coatings are used for parts to be used in interior applications. When anodized products are to be used out of doors, anodized film thickness is usually specified at 0.000400″ minimum or 0.000700″ minimum. Parts used in automotive applications are usually specified at 0.000300″. Parts used in interior applications are usually specified between 0.000100″ and 0.000350″. There are some applications where coating thickness of 0.00001″ is used."
},
{
"question": "Does exterior anodized aluminum appear to change color under different light conditions?",
"answer": "Many factors influence the appearance of anodized aluminum architectural components. Many architects and designers find that to be one of the most attractive features of anodized aluminum: their buildings assume a slightly different character depending upon the weather, the time of day, the season of the year, or the angle of observation. Differences in appearance will also be influenced by the alloy, anodic film thickness, surface texture of the aluminum, and the finishing process of the anodizer. Critical to all this is the angle of observation, especially as it relates to the primary source of illumination. If the product is colored, another level of complexity is added, since the shade and hue must also be controlled."
},
{
"question": "How is the corrosion resistance of anodized aluminum in sea water areas?",
"answer": "Anodized aluminum is very suitable for applications involving exposure to sea water and is routinely used for parts such as sail boat masts and railings. Corrosion resistance is excellent; however, the parts should be kept clean. The buildup of dirty surface deposits can provide sites for corrosion, particularly if there is any associated acidity. I understand that the colors on anodized aluminum may derive from metallic salts or from organic dyes."
},
{
"question": "How lightfast are these colorants in an indoor application?",
"answer": "Generally speaking, organic dyes are well suited for indoor applications and have enjoyed such use for over 50 years. Like any dyed fabric or painted surface, it is best to minimize direct sunlight exposure. The ‘Two-Step’ electrolytic coloring process can provide various bronze tones to a deep black finish [including Lorin’s Antique Copper Series that are impervious to ultraviolet light and can be used for interior applications. The use of inorganic dye compounds can also produce shades of gold from light champagne to a dark ten-carat gold finish and highly resistant to ultraviolet light."
},
{
"question": "What tests are used to evaluate an anodized finish?",
"answer": "ASTM B136-84, Standard Method for Measurement of Stain Resistance of Anodic Coatings on Aluminum. ASTM B137-95, Standard Test Method for Measurement of Coating Mass Per Unit Area on Anodically Coated Aluminum. ASTM B680-80, Standard Test Method for Seal Quality of Anodic Coatings on Aluminum by Acid Dissolution. ASTM B117-07, Standard Practice for Operating Salt Spray (Fog) Apparatus."
},
{
"question": "What does the term anodize rack marks mean?",
"answer": "In a batch anodizing process, an electrical contact must be made to each part that is going to be anodized. The more electrical current required, the larger the electrical contact area must be. At the point of the electrical connection, the passing current causes a burn mark and/or pit in the area of the contact on the part. Rack marks are NOT part of the coil anodizing process."
},
{
"question": "What alloys are recommended for anodizing?",
"answer": "Most all aluminum alloys will build an aluminum oxide layer in an anodizing process. The recommended aluminum alloy depends on many factors such as application, visual requirement, formability, and anodize thickness. The primary aluminum alloy used in a coil anodizing process requiring visually pleasing appearance [lack of visual imperfections] is a 5005 alloy. Yes. It is not difficult for anodizers to comply with all federal and state environmental regulations. There are no heavy metals or VOC’s [Volatile Organic Compounds] used in the anodizing process."
},
{
"question": "What anodized aluminum colors are available that are fade resistant?",
"answer": "Anodized aluminum products that have inorganic dyes or metal salts using a two-step electrolytic coloring process qualify as fade resistant. Colors range from various shades of gold, light to dark bronze tones, copper and deep black. While organic dyes will color shift with UV exposure, the color shift is often gradual and have lasted for over 50 years for interior applications."
},
{
"question": "What sort of heat exposure will an anodized aluminum finish survive?",
"answer": "The aluminum oxide layer could thermo craze with continuous heat exposure at 300° – 375° Fahrenheit, but will not remove the protective layer. Aluminum has a melting point of 1,220o Fahrenheit."
},
{
"question": "Can you eliminate anodize crazing?",
"answer": "All anodized aluminum can experience crazing when subjected to extreme temperatures or fabrication. You can minimize anodize crazing by increasing the bend radius, maintaining temperatures less than 350oF, and reducing the anodic layer thickness. Crazing does not impact the protective characteristics of the anodic layer."
},
{
"question": "How does anodized aluminum compare against other metals in terms of corrosion resistance?",
"answer": "Aluminum is naturally corrosion resistant and does not break down or degrade with exposure to water or humidity like other metals. Lorin’s Antique Copper does not leave weathering stains or patina [corrode] like real copper. Lorin’s ColorIn® does not chip, flake or peel [leading to corrosion] like painted aluminum. Lorin’s GoldBrite® does not tarnish [corrode] like brass. Lorin’s AlumaPlus® does not fingerprint [stain] like stainless steel. Based on calculation alone, an anodized aluminum product using 5005 ½ hard temper material has 25% higher dent resistance than stainless steel."
},
{
"question": "How is the visual consistency of an anodized product within the anodizing process?",
"answer": "Because anodizing is a finishing process, Lorin Industries, through our proprietary processes, are able to control the gloss, optics and color values of our anodized product. In addition to producing material to stringent industry standards, material is reviewed for consistency throughout the production run. Lorin Industries employs the most current technology in production techniques, test equipment and quality systems to ensure that only the highest quality material is produced and shipped. Lorin’s process automation, statistical process control (SPC) methodology, traceable documentation and ISO 9001:2000 Certification are a few of the production methods that keep us apart from our competition. Lorin’s success also comes from knowing and clearly understanding our customers’ requirements, to ensure they receive only the highest quality product, every time."
},
{
"question": "What can be done to fix scuffs and scratches on the anodized surface?",
"answer": "Keep in mind that the oxide layer is three times harder than the aluminum itself and has excellent abrasion resistance. This surface hardness will protect against scuffs and abrasions. Minor scratches in a colored anodized material are typically repaired with touch-up paints or permanent markers. Clear anodized material, if scratched, will build its own oxide layer over time and self heal to hide the scratched finish, unlike other materials."
},
{
"question": "How do anodized aluminum products help me in securing LEED points for my architectural project?",
"answer": "LEED initiatives were designed to create a common standard and promote the use of “healthy” building products. Buildings get LEED certified, but the products used in those buildings can help in qualifying for points. Lorin products can help in qualifying for LEED points based on the following criteria: Energy & Atmosphere – Lorin ClearMatt® products meet Energy Star Standards for total solar reflectance and thermal emittance, making them an excellent choice for roofing and exterior product applications where the designer is looking to maximize the building efficiencies with no negative impact on the environment through coating outgassing (No VOC’s emitted). Materials & Resources – Anodized aluminum products typically use high-purity aluminum alloys with little to no recycle content. Lorin is currently working with our suppliers to develop a high scrap content alloy that can be anodized with visual quality in mind. We are also developing a high scrap content alloy that shows the imperfections in a controlled and uniform way so the consumer can see that the metal is recycled but not compromise the beauty of the anodized aluminum finish. In the meantime, the anodized aluminum used in a project today is 100% Recyclable tomorrow. Indoor Environmental Quality – Anodized aluminum products do not outgas or emit toxic fumes like other coated materials. The anodizing process is 100% natural and will not negatively impact air quality."

{
"question": "Can you anodize continuous cast aluminum?",
"answer": "Yes, although you must consider the quality requirements for deciding on continuous cast or direct cast aluminum. In the continuous cast process molten aluminum is cast into a continuous strip and rolled to its final gauge. No additional steps are taken to homogenize or remove impurities. As a result, the quality of the finish is very poor and inconsistent, making it unsuitable where visual quality is important."

"question": "FAQ: Does Ashford Formula cover up blemishes and flaws on the concrete surface?",
"answer": "– Curecrete Distribution, Inc. The Ashford Formula does not cover up blemishes and flaws seen on the surface of the concrete. When it penetrates and reacts, it works inorganically to densify the floor, eliminate dust, and make the floor harder. All of these properties are brought about through chemical reactions. That is, the Ashford Formula leaves no film, coating or membrane on the surface of the floor. Because nothing is covered up, the floor will look much as it did before the Ashford Formula was applied."

http://www.paragon-mortgage.com/faqs/rad-is-the-solution-but-when-is-the-best-time-of-year-to-convert/ | [
{
"question": "When is the best time of year to convert?",
"answer": "Over half of the conversions that took place in 2015 occurred in the last three months of the year. While some of these conversions had tax credit deadlines that drove the timing of closing, many did not have any financing deadline influencing the timing of conversion. Conversations with PHAs, as well as comments made in a Listening Session in late March, suggest that a significant factor informing many of these late-in-the-year closings is a mis-perception about the funding process used for RAD. As a result of what we heard, HUD will publish funding instructions that provide a comprehensive description of the funding process used for RAD conversions. In the short-term, this article highlights that with good planning, underwriting, and communication across all members of a transaction team regarding the revenue available during the initial year, there is no significant reason to convert in the last three months of the calendar year. In the year of conversion, projects continue to be funded from the public housing accounts at the level of public housing subsidy they are due to receive in that calendar year. Then, in the next year, funding is based on the RAD contract rents. Some PHAs and their consultants have concluded that there is a financial benefit to convert later in the calendar year so as to minimize the number of months in which a project is subsidized through public housing. Some lenders and investors want to minimize the number of months they are involved in a transaction before the RAD rents come into effect. A property never receives more subsidy because it converts later in the year. Regardless of the timing of conversion, a converting property will be supported through the public housing subsidy for the remainder of the year. Consider a property that receives $1.2 million a year in Operating and Capital Fund subsidies, or $100,000/month. No matter when that project converts, the total subsidy for that project will be just $1.2 million. If the project closes in, say, March, then the effective date of the Housing Assistance Payments (HAP) project will be April 1. It will have received $300,000 for the first three months as a public housing property and will receive $900,000 for the remaining nine months as a RAD project. If it closes in September (with an October 1 HAP effective date), it will have received $900,000 as a public housing property and will receive $300,000 for the remaining three months as a RAD project. In either event, the project still only generates $1.2 million in subsidy, whether as public housing or as a Section 8 RAD project. Moreover, there is no financial benefit to converting after the annual allocation of Capital Funds or after the Capital Fund reporting date. Neither date impacts the amount of funding HUD will obligate to a PHA nor the amount of funds a PHA may utilize on a converting property, either as rental subsidy or in the development budget. HUD will put out additional guidance shortly on the handling of A property that converts earlier in the year actually receives more revenue over the course of 20 years. All contracts receive an Operating Cost Adjustment Factor (OCAF) rent increase at each annual anniversary of the HAP contract. The earlier in the year that a conversion occurs, the earlier in each subsequent calendar year the OCAF will be effective. Properties that convert earlier in the year receive up to a full additional OCAF increase relative to year-end conversions. Compare two 100-unit properties converting this year: one with a February 1 effective date and one with a November 1 effective date. Both have an initial contract rent of $650, with an average expected OCAF of 2% for the next twenty years. In each calendar year following conversion, the revenue for the property that converted earlier in the year will be 1.5% higher due to the earlier OCAF increase in that year. Over twenty years, this will total to $300,000 in greater revenue for the property that converted effective February 1. For transactions that will not be taking on any new debt, the property will continue to receive the subsidy that was supporting operations prior to conversion, plus a portion of the PHA’s Capital Fund. Given that HUD has underwritten the transaction with an expense cushion, the public housing amounts and tenant rents should cover project operations. These PHAs don’t have any third parties to satisfy after the conversion and should not delay their closing because of issues related to the flow of Capital and Operating Funds. For transactions that are financed with debt, often the debt service payments will not begin until the construction loan is converted to a permanent loan. All deals underwritten by FHA fall into this category. In non-FHA deals, if the debt service payments do begin immediately, there is typically sufficient debt service coverage built into the underwriting to withstand a temporary and what is almost always a small revenue gap. When needed, a PHA can create a reserve to cover any projected revenue differential in the first year. The key is communicating expectations with the lender so that the lender understands how the first year funding works. For transactions that involve tax credits, investors typically require a lease-up reserve and a six-month operating reserve. Owners can negotiate with investors to use a small portion of these funds to cover any revenue gap to the extent that it would impact the owner’s ability to pay operating costs, or create a separate reserve for this purpose. For transactions that require relocation, while the Section 8 programs would typically not fund the vacant units, under RAD they are eligible for Rehab Assistance Payments so there is more subsidy available compared with typical affordable housing development. The key for transactions that are working with third party financing sources is to make sure expectations around the revenue available during this period are well understood, can be planned for and can be accurately incorporated into underwriting. It is risky to try to close near the end of the year. The steps leading to conversion depend on actions by the PHA and HUD in the simplest cases, and a developer, lender, investor, Housing Finance Agency, contractor and local and state government in more complex cases. Setting out to convert at a particular time of year can easily backfire. Any given variable may throw off a PHA’s timing, including the heavy workload for HUD staff at the end of the year. PHAs should be mindful that because of the holidays and the year-end volume, HUD is not able to hold closings on all deals if PHAs wait until the final quarter of the calendar year. Some PHAs that submitted Financing Plans late in 2015 with the hopes of converting before the end of November discovered that the RAD closing pipeline was too full to accommodate their request. While HUD prioritizes high-impact transactions, including those at risk of losing a 9% tax credit allocation, HUD cannot provide this treatment for every conversion. Please remember that those developments that do close in December receive a January 1 effective date and thus remain on the public housing accounts for another full year. If a PHA’s primary goal is to close in a particular calendar year, it is best to close as soon as the transaction is ready. In sum, PHAs should focus on closing their RAD deals as soon as they have all necessary approvals and documentation. PHAs should not attempt to time their closings at the final quarter of the calendar year in search of an insignificant or non-existent financial benefit."

},
{
"question": "Q: Can I use the same Serial Number to activate a seat on the server and my local copy?",
"answer": "A: Yes you can because each Serial Number can be activated twice. Alternately, you might want to use your two activations to activate a machine in your office and a laptop for the field. Alternate answer: no, you cannot use the same activation code for local and server copies – this requires a separate product code for us to enforce this."
},
{
"question": "Q: Can I user PAVER71™ on a LAN with a shared network drive?",
"answer": "A: Yes you can. You will need to have both a network shared directory for your data and a copy of SQL Server (Express or full) on your server. When you are asked to define your user data directory, you should point to a place on your shared network drive and not to a local directory on your machine. If you have a copy of PAVER70x on your machine, you will need to move that directory to the server first. In this situation side by side operation of 70x and 71 is not supported."
},
{
"question": "Q: How do I install PAVER71™ on a server?",
"answer": "A: You may use PAVER71™ on a server with Windows Thick Clients or Windows Thin Clients. For Terminal Services or CITRIX, you install P71 into that environment and activate it. For Windows Thick Client server, you install and activate your server copy and you must use Service install program (in the \\bin directory) to install a Windows Service to host your P71 data and engineering rules. For either install, you can use the Work Group Editor (in the \\bin directory) as a standalone program outside of P71 to support more than one group of disjoint users on a single server. As a practical matter, there is a limit of 16 work groups on a single server because Microsoft has a limit of 16 instances of SQL Server Express on a machine and we recommend that each Work Group have its own instance."
},
{
"question": "Q: How do I access a Windows Thin client?",
"answer": "A: Your P71 administrator will send you a login file to the remote server application. You can save that to your desktop and it works like launching an application but there is nothing installed on your machine unless you need to install a CITRIX client."
},
{
"question": "Q: How do I access a remote server with a Windows Thick Client?",
"answer": "A: You start P71 normally and you can go to the File / Connect to Server menu item. You will be taken to the screen to collect your user name, password, and the location of the remote server and an optional work group name. Once you have this information, you may save it as a named profile and select that profile for default use on startup. If you only use one remote server, you should not need to use the connect to server screen again as long as you check the option to automatically use this profile."
},
{
"question": "Q: Can I add additional functionality to PAVER71™ from other vendors?",
"answer": "A: Yes you can. The 70x add in machinery has been extended to support even more features as add in features. Add In features can extend the range of inventory and inspection data and also add things like GIS Reports and colored GIS Markers on the map."

"question": "How much the iPhone 8 Plus is going to cost?",
"answer": "If you are not a member of Apple’s upgrade program and want to buy an unlocked version, the new iPhone 8 Plus is going to cost your $799 for its base variant which has a 64GB of internal storage. If you want to upgrade the storage to 256 GB, you will have to pay a hefty price of $949. The members of the upgrade program can get this phone for $39.50/month. Of course, these are the US pricing models, if you happen to live in another country, your pricing will vary. Yes, the iPhone 8 Plus which is launching at $799 for the base model is costlier than the last year’s iPhone 7 Plus which launched at $749. That’s a $50 markup in the price of the new iPhone. However, it should also be mentioned that the last year’s base model had 32 GB of storage, while this year it has been increased to 64 GB."
},
{
"question": "What are the storage options I can choose?",
"answer": "This year Apple is only giving users two storage options to choose from. There’s the base model which comes with 64 GB of storage while a $150 upgrade will get you an iPhone with 256GB of storage. There’s no 32 or 128 GB option this year. If you are living in the United States, iPhone 8 Plus has started shipping from 22nd September. This means that at the time of publishing this article, you can easily go and purchase your iPhone, and it will ship immediately.

"question": "How can I trust BankVault?",
"answer": "This is an important question and to answer it properly we should respond from a number of different angles. Firstly, lets spin the question around. Most users are blindly trusting their PC. Our machines have accumulated user history, software from many different vendors where the typical user doesn’t even know are embedded in there. For example who was responsible for the firmware in each of the hardware components, let alone the hardware drivers, applications, and live Internet connections. Nobody can ever guarantee the integrity of all these components operating perfectly securely together. Each week, on Patch Tuesday, Microsoft release a slew of new updates proving you were vulnerable the week before with their software. By contrast, BankVault can take responsibility for 100% of the technology stack. We leverage open source software so we have transparency over the entire technology stack we deliver. Our team monitor continually, and leverage the industry where other teams are providing and assuring the integrity of all software elements. We always deploy the latest LTS version of each software component so the industry itself is continually vetted every component. Ultimately it isn’t just BankVault you’re trusting but the institution you buy it through such as your insurance company, your bank, your crypto-exchange. They have their vetting process in place to guarantee the integrity with their systems. We have considerable social proof about the team’s reputation, and have the support of key industry figures. You can see this in the Advisory Board. As a team, we have committed our careers and future to build this. It’s not about the money. It’s about integrity and doing something important our families can be proud of. We are negotiating to have an insurance policy cover the risks. Customers will pay a premium for this to the insurance company and you’ll be trusting the insurance company. But to answer this question head on – we are currently going through the process of an independent external audit and will publish the report when completed."

"question": "How does BankVault compare to anti-virus software?",
"answer": "Use BankVault to open potentially hazardous email attachments, web hyperlinks and online folders with complete immunity. When you have received a link, email attachment, LinkedIn attachment, or find have received something that you simply must open to find out, do this within BankVault. It will be clear very quickly if its legitimate or not, and when it’s not you can either delete it, or close down and start afresh. Examples of malware which frequently deceive people today are emails with a voice mail link, a PDF or spreadsheet from a colleague via LinkedIn, an email with a button to download an invoice, These may seem interesting but frequently contain very dangerous malware. Antivirus and anti-malware are great for containing virus software. It fulfils an important role in keeping your computer safe. But it’s not comprehensive security. In fact many large technology companies actually have ceased using it. Netflix for example in 2016 stated that “anti-virus software simply no longer works and can’t stop the threat from new types of cyber-attacks”. Symantec in 2016 said that over 1 million new viral variants are released every 24 hours, so it’s impossible for the anti-virus software you run to keep up to date. Use BankVault when you need to be certain about your security. Nearly all antivirus software works by monitoring your computer and network for malicious files which it recognises based on the ‘signature’ of the file. This is an efficient way to work in the background of your computer without impacting its performance. Your antivirus software regularly updates its ‘list’ of signatures to watch out for by checking in with its vendor headquarters about the latest risks. The problem for antivirus is that a complete list of all possible dangerous signatures that ever existed would need to be billions of signatures long, and needs to be kept up to date every single minute. That’s far too big and complex for most computers to handle without impacting your system’s performance. Vendors get around this by maintaining a ‘current’ list of a few million signatures on your computer, and sending out regular updates to your software for emerging, re-emerging or new threat types. Advanced antivirus and security software also introduce other approaches such as monitoring your computer for unexpected or risky ‘behaviour’. Combined, and thanks to the diligence of antivirus companies, this works well, but it is still constantly playing catch-up with the latest and ever-changing smorgasbord of threats circulating in the wild. Other malware types can be difficult for antivirus to detect. Many of the Ransomware attacks over recent years actually use the high-quality encryption built-in to your operating system against you. Your antivirus won’t try to prevent your own computer from encrypting its files, and the encryption is so good, there is no unlocking it without the key—time to pay! BankVault does away with all of this catch up and indefinite approaches by removing your computer—the antivirus on it and any malware that got past it—from the situation. BankVault doesn’t sit there to be targeted. It gives you access to a pristine computer, virus-free, just created, safely hidden, far away, and soon to vanish."

{
"question": "Is BankVault like a VPN?",
"answer": "BankVault has 100x more functionality of a VPN. Not only is everything encrypted but you have a pristine, new, fully functioning machine every login. VPN’s provide a level of security for a specific elements of computing but as a cyber security system achieves very little. They are typically used for point-to-point tunnels through the Internet. By using a VPN someone lurking on a local router cannot interpret the data as it is routed through. It can be useful to your PC with a remote IP address for example in the USA if you want to download content restricted to USA IP numbers. That also makes your activity invisible to your local ISP and prevents them capturing meta data about your activities. You may receive an email attachment with malware such as a keylogger. Anti-virus won’t pick it up because it was just crafted yesterday and only released to 100 endpoint devices before the author modified it and sent out a different variant to the rest of his target market. These never get picked up by anti-virus software. In fact Symantec said recently that there’s 1,000,000 new variants released every 24 hours. The processes of morphing and releasing are automated. Drive-by-download is where you browse a website and malware is downloaded and executes in the browser when you display an image. This is a common vector for the latest man-in-the-browser hacking that target banking login credentials. They’re easy to set up and they’re becoming very common. For example Telstra’s website was infected with one last year which targeted banking credentials. Anyone would pick it up purely by going to Telstra’s website and your anti-virus software won’t stop it because it’s not a virus. If you install a new software package then you’re trusting that supplier. But it goes further. There are all sorts of cracks and fissures between the different software packages and versions configured on your device. These are what the hackers exploit. VPN’s can’t address any of these issues. Anti-virus software products Trend and Symantec last year were named as the back-door being used by hackers to install their malware. This was detailed in two separate announcements two separate broadcasts by Google Security team. According to McAfee the average time a hacker has infiltrated a PC or network before they attack is 293 days. They are undetectable. Once they are into your PC they’re effectively sitting in your lap and ready to take over your keyboard whenever they choose. A VPN makes absolutely no difference. BankVault addresses the cyber security issue by doing things completely differently. It’s conceptually simple to understand and is easy to use. It comprehensively addresses every attack vector by simply sidestepping everything for the duration of critical online transactions such as banking. It can be provided as a dedicated hardware device to it can recycle the users existing PC hardware and even bypass BIOS or wireless keyboard sniffing. So in an era where bank account hacking is growing exponentially and bank’s need to investigate before negotiating reimbursements, any delay can be crippling for cashflow and BankVault offers simple pristine protection."

{
"question": "What magic makes BankVault “invisible” from the Internet and my computer?",
"answer": "BankVault uses several technologies which combined make you invisible from any tracking software on the Internet or malware on your local device. Your BankVault machine is hidden using a technology called IP Masquerading, whereby we can run tens of thousands of machines in parallel behind a single IP address. It’s like a one-way-mirror whereby you can see out to the Internet and initiate external connections, but the Internet cannot see you. We build a fresh machine in each login, ensuring no tracking software can be present from previous use. We host in a number of data centre locations worldwide allowing you can either select a continent of choice or be automatically taken to the closest one to you. The tracking done on the Internet therefore see those IP addresses rather than your own physical IP address."
},
{
"question": "What difference will BankVault make to my business?",
"answer": "The cost of a cyber attack to a business is estimated to be 9x the amount of money stolen. This is made up of the cost of reputational damage, clean up, replacing systems, training staff and lost business as a direct consequence. Strong cybersecurity help you differentiate yourself from competitors, building trust from your customers and driving business growth. Today cyber hacking makes headlines every weak in the news media. In a recent survey, 40% of small business owners said they were extremely concerned about the risk of a cyber-attack in their industry, and would take steps if they knew what they could do to reduce risk. They have no choice but to trust their IT contractor, or IT advisor, that everything is in order. Yet, the new generation of Non-Malware cyber attacks are undetectable. Most people have heard of somebody who has been the victim of a cyber-attack. No-one realises it though, until is too late. If you’ve ever entered personal or sensitive company information on a website, or made financial or credit card transactions online, or used a website to update private or sensitive data … then you’ve probably also blindly trusted the machine you’re working from. BankVault gives you a way of being certain you’re safe and secure doing these things online. BankVault can save you from financial loss, downtime, brand damage and embarrassment."
},
{
"question": "Why is BankVault so secure?",
"answer": "BankVault is based on a simple, fundamental principal – using a completely new machine for each transaction. It’s analogous to assuming your PC/smartphone is hacked, so going down the street and buying a new computer for each transaction. Only it leverages cloud technology to sidestep your device entirely, only using it to stream images to. Nothing therefore executes on your local device. BankVault leverages the cumulative effect of a number of different technologies, including “the cloud” and peripheral technologies which sidestep every attack vector used by endpoint hackers. The solution creates remote, virtual machines, built afresh each time, which are invisible from the Internet. The virtual machine build which would normally takes tens of minutes, occurs within 1 second. The machines use IP masquerading, a kind of firewall, making them invisible from the Internet but allowing a user on the inside to initiate an external connection across the Internet. Only a stream of pixels display the desktop of the remote machine as an image on the device, so no cross-code is executed. A remote invisible keyboard (a mobile app) connects with the virtual machine and is used for entering in passwords. The remote invisible keyboard is an illusion, as no keyboard actually exists on the mobile at all, so there is never a character in the local operating system of the device. At the end of a session, or when the connection to the local PC/smartphone is broken, the BankVault session evaporates without trace. No data is stored other than your login session time for accounting purposes. Nothing you do inside the virtual machine is visible to anyone other than yourself. You effectively move to a separate remote computer thus sidestepping anything on your local device. You can work from a different geographic location and a machine that cannot be identifiable as your computer. Working via a clean, perfect, pristine, up-to-date, secure and safe computer every time. From a technical perspective your physical location is hidden. Your BankVault session, for the short time it appears, can appear to be from a different continent, wherever a BankVault secure data centre node exists. Your session is allocated a shared IP, potentially with thousands of other users and may change each time you start a new session. This protects your location, your privacy, and your identity. Add to this that your session is temporary. Everything you do with it will vanish, impossible to track, hack or attack."

{
"question": "What information does BankVault store about me?",
"answer": "The only information BankVault holds is your login ID, name and email address provided on signup. Your credit card details are held by the payment gateway provider, not by BankVault. Australian’s Data Retention Laws require BankVault to record a timestamp whenever a customer logs into the system. This meta data is available may be requested by the government. BankVault is extremely concerned about protecting our customer’s privacy and anonymity. Our products are designed so you have no online footprint unless you choose to make one."
},
{
"question": "How does BankVault protect against Ransomware & Malware?",
"answer": "You can open an email attachment and look at the ransomware package in the face, before deleting it or just closing your BankVault. Note: We recommend starting a new BankVault every time you’re about to conduct online banking to ensure you have a fresh new browser. This immunity to malware is one of the main use cases why enterprises are adopting “remote isolation / browsing”. BankVault brings enterprise grade remote isolation/browsing within reach of any small business or individual."
},
{
"question": "How does BankVault protect me from bank account hacking?",
"answer": "BankVault simply sidesteps your local PC/smartphone. Transactions occur in a temporary remote virtual machine, and when complete this environment evaporates without trace. Your transactions are secure, anonymous and untraceable from the hackers who have infiltrated your network. Hackers rarely target the banks systems directly. Instead they target the customers endpoint devices, their PCs and smartphones. These are almost impossible to harden and almost always vulnerable. (Mark Zuckerberg famously has a piece of tap covering the webcam on his own laptop, and we’re all using exactly the same technology). According to Symantec, a Man-in-the-Browser (MitB) cyber-attack, on average lasts 10 months before the attacker stings the victim. By that stage they know everything about you. MitB attack can easily manipulate you to reveal your 2 Factor Authentication. Hackers frequently combine all bank accounts, sometimes double credit limits, and then transfer all the funds out to a mule account. A mule is typically a hapless person who for a small payment and a story has volunteered the use of their empty bank account. Funds are then transferred to one of the towns alone the Sino-Russian boarder."
},
{
"question": "How does BankVault protect me from Identity Theft?",
"answer": "BankVault simply sidesteps your local PC/smartphone. Transactions occur in a temporary remote virtual machine, and when complete this environment evaporates without trace. Your work online, such as logins and passwords are secure, anonymous and untraceable from the hackers who may have infiltrated your network. Personally identifiable information (PII) is any data that can potentially identify a specific individual. When your personal computer is compromised, your specific details such as name, date of birth, mothers maiden name, and login credentials, are easily gleaned by hackers. Once they have your login credentials to your bank, they’re only one step away from tricking you into revealing your security Fob, SMS text or Google Authenticate. BankVault provides a secure environment, within which it’s impossible for malware to trace what you’re doing. Log files are kept everywhere, and the goal is to not leave any breadcrumbs on any machine you use. Once you start using BankVault, change your banking password and never access your bank account from a normal machine again. BankVault evaporates without trace after you exist ensuring your details are secure, anonymous and untraceable from hackers."
},
{
"question": "Doesn’t the bank replace stolen funds?",
"answer": "They may reimburse you. But the delay while banks investigate a cyber heist can cripple cash flow, destroying businesses and reputations. When its beyond simple credit card fraud, banks need to investigate cyber heists before negotiating compensation. You may have to prove that you are not defrauding the bank and that you didn’t authorise the transaction. The process can take weeks or months. Trustees of trust accounts are personally liable within 24 hours. The bank may take months. Governments may revoke a business license after 48 hours. If you are not happy with BankVault then please contact us within 7 days of creating your account, and we will cancel your account and refund your money."

"question": "What is the MSR (Mirror Surface Rejection) function of Retroreflective Photoelectric Sensors?",
"answer": "MSR is a function of Retroreflective Photoelectric Sensors to receive only the light reflected from the Retroreflector by using the characteristics of the polarizing filter built into the Sensor and the characteristics of the Retroreflector. 1.Light that passes through the polarizing filter at the light emission side becomes horizontal. 2.Light will change from horizontal to vertical if it is reflected on the triangular pyramid on the Retroreflector. 3.The vertical reflected light passes through the polarizing filter at the light receiving side and reaches the light-receiving elements. Using a Sensor with MSR is ideal for detecting mirrors or other mirror-like objects. By using the principles described above, a Sensor with MSR can detect a mirror-like object as shown in the following figure. Note:If MSR is not used, the light reflected on the mirror-like object will be received, which will make it impossible to detect the object. The light will not be polarized at the object, and so the polarizing filter at the light-receiving side will prevent the reflected light from being received horizontally. This makes it possible to detect even mirror-like objects."

"answer": "No it is not necessary that you would have worked in the USA previous to the application for E3 Visa."
},
{
"question": "Is it necessary for me to have license for the \"specialty occupation\"?",
"answer": "If the occupation requires license or any type of official permission, you will need to have before you apply from the E3 Visa. The proof of the same should be submitted before the E3 Visa is granted. In the cases where the license/ permission is not immediately required, but might be necessary in the future, the applicant needs to undertake that he/ she would be willing to obtain such license/ permission within an admissible time-period after he/ she is admitted into the USA. For an accurate definition, you may look up the definition contained at INA 214 (i)(1) for H-1B non-immigrants and applicable standards and criteria determined by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and USCIS."
},
{

"answer": "Yes, you can actually renew the E3 Visa indefinitely, provided you are employed in the USA under the above mentioned criteria."
},
{
"question": "Does the E3 Visa allow for dual intent category entry in the USA?",
"answer": "No, it does not. You must convince the USCIS that the employment you received through the offer letter from your US-based company is temporary and short-term. The officer at USCIS needs to be convinced that you do not entertain any thoughts of remaining in the USA permanently. In fact you should be able to satisfy the interviewing official that you would return as soon as the job is completed."

},
{
"question": "Can I change my employer while I hold an E3 Visa?",
"answer": "Yes, you can change your employer. However, since your E3 Visa is linked to ONE employer, the change of employer would need a new E3 visa. This can be applied for at the US Consulate overseas or directly inside the USA. Since you are already an E3 visa holder, the new visa is not counted as a new visa among the yearly quota of 10,500 visas. I have an E3 Visa."
},
{
"question": "What about my spouse and children?",
"answer": "Your spouse and children are also eligible for this visa as dependents. However, for this purpose you must bring in documents that prove your relationship with the dependents, such as marriage certificate and children's date of birth."

},
{
"question": "What are the benefits of the E3 Visa?",
"answer": "Though issued for a maximum 2 years at a time, the E3 visa has no limit on the number of renewals it can avail. Hence, the E3 visa can have you live in the USA indefinitely provided you have the job. Spouses of E3 Visa holders can travel and work in the USA. Only an employment authorization is required."
},
{
"question": "How is the H-1B different from the E3 Visa?",
"answer": "The dependents of the H-1B Visa enter the USA on H4 Visa, cannot work in the USA. The dependents of the E3 Visa can accept employment. The E3 visa can be renewed indefinitely 2 years at a time, as long as the sponsor employer has you on the payroll. The H-1B visa can be extended maximum up to 6 years, unless the H-1B Visa holder applied for a Green Card. In such a case, the H-1B visa would be extended for as long as it takes to process the Green Card. The E3 Visa holders are non-immigrants. Hence, they need to prove their intent to return to Australia once the job assignment is completed. With the H-1B visa however, you are permitted to apply for Green Card as this visa is covered under the \"dual intent\" doctrine."

"question": "Do you really need Raspberry Pi and Linux to do that?",
"answer": "programmers are already using or are interested to learn how to use Python, but they would shy away from touching low level C code that deals with accessing sensor data. It is this younger developer audience that we had in mind when we started our work on LiV: we wanted to create a friendly programming environment for them. When you take into consideration all the capabilities listed here, using a Linux box like Raspberry Pi starts to make sense."
},
{
"question": "Where can I direct all my questions related to building and configuring LiV?",
"answer": "We have limited resources so please read carefully the instructions on our website first. If you can not find the info you need you can contact us at \"support\" At \"firstcypress\" Dot \"com\"."
},
{
"question": "How can I contribute to LiV?",
"answer": "If you are connecting new sensors to LiV, adding new functionality in software, building a new case, or integrating LiV into a cool web or mobile app - we encourage you to share your work under an open source license. Feel free to fork LiV on github."

"question": "and do they really not bind?",
"answer": "Decoys are computed based on similar physical properties but different chemical structures (see text). We have gone to some trouble to eliminate actives from the set of decoys, but they have not been tested. We have included known non-binders, as listed in ChEMBL, which may be downloaded when available."
},
{
"question": "Where do the decoys come from and can they be acquired?",
"answer": "DUD-E is drawn from ZINC, a database of commerically available compounds for virtual screening, so compounds in DUD-E were purchasable when the database was created, although some may become depleted over time. For each active, 50 \"decoys\" with similar 1-D physico-chemical properties to remove bias (e.g. molecular weight, calculated LogP) but dissimilar 2-D topology to be likely non-binders.

{
"question": "Question: Why do carpets vary in size?",
"answer": "Answer: A fine hand woven carpet differs from machine made carpets in several ways, including variations in size. These variations exist because of the numerous handmade processes used to make each rug. The variation in size ranges from +/- 3% in width and +/- 6% in length. Our wool is spun into yarn by hand. Therefore, the yarn varies in diameter, which results in knots of varying size. The thinner the yarn, the smaller the knot; the thicker the yarn, the larger the knot. So it follows that the smaller the knots, the smaller the rug; and the larger the knots, the larger the rug. Additionally, during the weaving process, each row of knots is beaten down by hand. This also contributes to variations in size."
