"question": "There are many styles of roof – what shingles suit yours?",
"answer": "When you’re considering a roof replacement, you probably have a lot of questions. This is not a small, inexpensive fix to your home. It’s the replacement of a very important part of your home. Your roof is important not only for the safety of the structure but the overall look of the home as well. Asking and getting answers to your questions before you install your new roof will help you feel more secure in your decision. 1."
},
{
"question": "Do you need a roof repair or a roof replacement?",
"answer": "If your problems are just with a few loose shingles and nothing is wrong with the roof decking, you may only require a roof repair. The same goes for moss and algae-covered roofs. You might not like the look, but the shingles and decking could be fine. If you notice curving and cracking on many shingles, shingle granules are loosening and moving into the gutters, or your actual roof is sinking in places, you need to look at a roof replacement. 2."
},
{
"question": "How Much Will a New Roof Cost?",
"answer": "The cost of your new roof varies greatly depending on the material that you choose. For instance, slate and tile cost a lot more than asphalt shingles. Though they add a unique look to your roof, some of these more expensive shingles are also less durable than asphalt or metal roofs, and you need to factor this into the cost as well. Talk with several different roofing contractors to get an estimate for the work, which will also depend on the size and complexity of the roofing job. If you have a choice between cheaper and more durable and expensive shingles, make sure that you get the highest quality that you can afford. It will save you headaches and repair and replacement costs later. Different home colors and the surrounding environment help determine what color your roof should be. 4."
},
{
"question": "What Color or Style of Shingles Suits My Home?",
"answer": "When you’re looking at your home, consider what shingles might suit it aesthetically in addition to thinking about the cost and longevity of the shingles. Wood shingles give a cabin feel to the home, while tile looks more Mediterranean. Slate roofs are pricey but add a high-end look to your house. The sturdy, dependable asphalt shingle is the choice of most homeowners even today. Within that type of shingle, you’ll also find many color variations and patterns from which to choose. Look at shingles the way you would look at painting your home. Make sure that your roofline complements your home color, style, and surroundings. 5."
},
{
"question": "Do I Need Extra Features?",
"answer": "When you’re looking at shingles, there are a few extras to consider. For instance, you might be very motivated to save energy by reflecting light from your roof. In this case, you could consider a whiter, light-reflective shingle. You could live in a place where it is often wet and algae grows easily on the roof. In that case, you could choose shingles that discourage algae growth. As you look at your shingle options, remember that these features can make life easier, and think about whether or not they are appropriate for your home.

"question": "Why use PRP injections to treat these injuries?",
"answer": "• It can help you avoid surgery. • It’s minimally invasive. • It offers a fast recovery time and quicker deep healing than surgery. • It’s less painful than surgery. When the PRP arrives at the site of the injury, the platelets unleash the growth factors. These growth factors cause a regenerative inflammation around the area of the injury, spurring healing. (This is why you shouldn’t take anti-inflammatory medication after PRP injections.) The result is restored ligaments and tendons as well as stronger, more resilient cartilage – in other words, healing. Most patients find that the procedure is not very painful, and they tolerate it well. However, it’s common for the inflammatory response to produce soreness after the injection. Expect soreness and swelling for at least the first 48 hours after your injection. We’ll give you pain medication to help alleviate any discomfort. You can also use heat packs or hot compresses to soothe the pain."
},
{
"question": "How quickly will PRP work?",
"answer": "You should see your first results in 2-6 weeks. As time passes, you’ll find that the pain lessens with every week that passes. Many patients see great improvement within 6-9 months of the treatment. In short, yes. There are no foreign substances being injected into your body, so most doctors consider the procedure to be very safe. The only possible complications are those of needle insertion, and they include bleeding, bruising, infection, and soreness. However, all medical procedures carry risks – and that includes PRP. Still, what’s important to remember is that there are no foreign bodies being injected and no concern for disease transmission. Many people are wary about PRP simply because it’s so new. The entire arena of autologous medicine (using patients’ own bodies to help them heal) is new. But while this is a new area for many patients, it is at the same time an extremely fast-growing field in medicine. There have been many publications in national and international journals that have proven over and over the safety and efficacy of these procedures. This is the future of medicine, and we expect we’ll see many treatments similar to PRP as the years go on. I have already had surgery, and I’m still in pain."
},
{
"question": "Am I a candidate for PRP treatment?",
"answer": "Yes. We have treated many patients in your situation, and we have been able to help most of them to improve their function, reduce their pain, and enjoy better quality of life. However, you should keep in mind that the surgery you have had creates limitations on what we can achieve. Surgery disrupts the normal architecture of the body and replaces much of your normal tissue with extensive scar tissue. There is only so much PRP and stem cell treatments can do to help this – but we may still be able to leave you in a better position than you were in before our treatments."
},
{
"question": "What are the expected outcomes of PRP?",
"answer": "We fully expect that you’ll be able to enjoy pain-free, normal living after PRP with full or near-full recovery of the function of the treated body part. Our goal is to heal your injury and stop your pain at the source. If you’re like most patients, you’ll start noticing improvement after a few weeks, improvement that builds as time goes on. Studies and research have shown that the pain relief is both effective and lasting. Ultrasounds and MRI results show that the pain relief comes from healing – the tissues have actually been repaired. With repaired tissues and little to no pain, you should be able to avoid surgery, especially if you get the PRP treatment before the damage to your tissues becomes irreversible."
},
{
"question": "What’s the future of PRP?",
"answer": "We believe that PRP is the future – of medicine and pain relief. We fully expect that more and more patients will ask for PRP as the results of this innovative treatment come in. Physicians, too, will be excited, since they’ll have another effective treatment option to give to their patients. This kind of autologous treatment is only just beginning, and while we don’t know for certain what the future will hold for PRP treatment, we’re certainly excited to find out."
},
{
"question": "Is this simply a different version of a cortisone shot?",
"answer": "No. Cortisone is a way of managing pain, not creating healing. Cortisone is created from a synthetic corticosteroid. While certainly limited cortisone injections can be temporarily helpful, reducing inflammation and pain, they don’t resolve the underlying issue (disease process) that is causing the pain. Furthermore, there are many risks to having too many cortisone injections. The immune system can be suppressed over time. Corticosteroids have also been shown to be toxic to tissue, and over time they cause more damage and accelerate the need for surgical interventions. On the other hand, PRP uses the patient’s own blood and natural growth factors. It doesn’t have the same side effects as cortisone. Most importantly, PRP aims to cure the disease, not merely manage the pain. We can’t answer that question here, as the answer is different for everyone. Your underlying disease process and recent injury history will affect how long and how well the treatment will work for you. We can’t predict whether you’ll need to come back for further treatment as time goes on. (An entirely new injury could lead to an entirely new course of treatment.) Sometimes patients do have to come back months or years later for further treatment; sometimes they do not."
},
{
"question": "Will my insurance cover PRP?",
"answer": "Many insurance companies consider PRP to be an experimental treatment and do not cover it. This “experimental” label does not mean that the treatment is ineffective or dangerous – it simply means that the insurance companies do not find covering the procedure to be in their financial interest. Anything an insurance company will not cover, they label as experimental, regardless of how well-accepted or effective the treatment happens to be. However, many patients find that the out-of-pocket costs are well worth the pain relief."
},
{
"question": "Why haven’t I heard of PRP before?",
"answer": "This treatment is extremely new – real progress has only been made in the last decade or so. New techniques, protocols, and trials are ongoing every day. Because this treatment is so cutting edge, it’s not part of standard medical school curricula yet. However, as the treatment evolves and wins more acceptance, we expect that the news will spread and the treatment will become available to more patients."
},
{
"question": "Can I resume normal activities?",
"answer": "• Drink plenty of fluids after the treatment. • Avoid strenuous activity such as working out or physically demanding tasks. • Do not take anti-inflammatory medicine such as Advil, Motrin, or Aleve for at least 4 weeks, as these can interfere with the healing process. • Attend all follow-up visits we recommend. Do not skip appointments or wait longer than recommended, as this can make future treatments less effective. • If recommended, partake in a structured rehabilitation program. We’ll give you more specific instructions for your particular condition when we treat you."
},
{
"question": "What’s the difference between PRP treatment and stem cells?",
"answer": "PRP and stem cell treatments involve different types of cells. PRP has natural growth factors and proteins that can spur healing in soft tissue. Often, platelets will “recruit” stem cells from other areas in the body to continue healing, but in PRP-only treatment, this occurs naturally, without further intervention beyond the PRP injections. Stem cell treatments are much more powerful, as we implant your own stem cells directly to the site of the injury. These cells take the identity of the cells needed to heal tissue and repair damage. We often combine these treatments, since the PRP will be naturally recruiting stem cells to the site of the injury. However, if the injury itself is relatively minor and only requires a “jumpstart” to get the healing process underway, we may use PRP in isolation. It all depends on your particular treatment needs and goals. Hair loss in men is primarily hereditary. It follows a specific, progressive pattern (male pattern hair loss) that is triggered by the hormone dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Just like in women, hair loss occurs when hair follicles weaken and stop producing new hair. As many as 60 million American men suffer from this kind of hair loss."
},
{
"question": "What are PRP hair regrowth treatments, and how do they work?",
"answer": "As with various soft-tissue injuries, PRP treatment for hair loss uses your own blood to jumpstart the healing process, healing damaged tissue and allowing you enjoy a fuller, thicker head of hair. We will start by evaluating and measuring the area that concerns you, including taking standard medical photos. Using gentle, sterile techniques, we will then take a small sample of your blood. Our advanced centrifuges will separate that blood into its component parts, creating a high concentration of plasma rich with platelets. Next, we will prepare your scalp with an antiseptic solution and “ring block” anesthetic. Your scalp will be completely numb, allowing a 100% painless procedure. We will then inject that mixture directly into the problem area using electronic, mechanical micro-needling. The growth factors and cytokines in the PRP have been shown to stimulate and enhance the function of hair follicles. We might combine this treatment with ECM or Extracellular Matrix (like ACell or BioD) for even better results."
},
{
"question": "Who are the ideal candidates for PRP treatment for hair loss?",
"answer": "If there is still “weak quality” hair growth on your scalp, where we can still see hair follicles, or if you have only small areas of alopecia areata, you could be an ideal candidate for this procedure."
},
{
"question": "How does combining this treatment with ACell or BioD improve the overall results of the treatment?",
"answer": "Many doctors and patients report that by adding Extracellular Matrix or ECM products like ACell (porcine bladder-derived) or BioD (human amniotic placenta-derived) to PRP, it’s possible to observe stronger hair growth that lasts longer."
},
{
"question": "What are the risks and benefits for PRP treatment for hair loss?",
"answer": "PRP for hair loss is a comfortable, in-office procedure that only takes about an hour. Most of that time is spent in the preparation phase, so you don’t have to do anything – you just get to relax. Usually, doctors can measure improvement within 3 months of treatment; however, it may take 6-12 months for you to really notice the difference. The risks of the procedure are minimal and can certainly be managed. You may notice a brief period of inflammation, leading to a pink, numb scalp that lasts for a few hours. Rarely, patients experience swelling, which will only be noticeable in the forehead and around the eye area. This swelling usually starts the next day (when it occurs) and takes only a day or two to clear up."

{
"question": "So, how did the water get in?",
"answer": "There could be cracks in the foundation floor or walls and when water is seeking an entry point it goes to the weakest place. If your drainage system is old or was improperly installed, excess water could be pooling near your foundation. You may have landscaping that includes bushes or trees that have roots that have spread and cracked your foundation. In cold weather, the soil around your home retracts and creates a space for water to gather. Water may be getting in through the window wells. It’s a lot to consider. Your best solution is to have the experts at City Wide Group give your basement a complete inspection to identify the problems and give you a written estimate that will include using the most up to date methods to repair any failures or flaws and then provide you with a waterproofing solution customized to your home. You may choose to have an exterior waterproofing process which preserves the structural integrity of our foundation. It is more costly but ensures that water does not seep into the masonry. Internal waterproofing diverts whatever water into a weeping tile drainage system. Waterproofing your basement ensures you are protecting your family and your belongings from future damage. It also adds value to your home should you decide to sell. Having your basement waterproofing project conducted by City Wide Group has the added bonus of providing you with a fully transferable warranty to demonstrate to potential purchasers that your home’s foundation is solid and dry. Every spring, the City Wide Group is the company of choice for more homeowners in the Greater Toronto Area than any other. They have set the standard for basement waterproofing and service. In fact, they have won the Consumer Choice Award for 22 consecutive years. If you find yourself facing a wet basement at any time, make sure to give them a call."

{
"question": "Can I secure my mobility scooter?",
"answer": "You can lock it with a chain and padlock, but its best to keep it indoors or in a locked garage. Scooters have serial numbers so they can be tracked by the police. Although insurance for mobility scooters or powerchairs is not a legal requirement, it is highly recommended. This is because it will product you not only against accidental damage and theft, but also negligence claims which may arise."
},
{
"question": "How often should you service a mobility scooter?",
"answer": "Mobility Scooters/ Powerchairs should be serviced once a year. You don’t need to take a test before using a Mobility. If you’ve never driven before, we will spend the time with you ensuring that you know how to use the scooter safely. Class 2 Pavement Scooters can legally travel up to 6.4kph (4mph) on pavements and are allowed on the road to cross from from one to the other. Basically this allows you to drive anywhere you are permitted to travel on foot. Class 3 Scooters tend to be larger, than those found in the Class 2, and can be driven on the roads where they can travel up to a speed of 12.8kph. Most class 3 mobility scooters have two speed settings, usually changed by a switch. REMEMBER: – 6.4kph (4mph) maximum speed is permitted on the pavement or footpath. 12.8kph (8mph) maximum speed is permitted only on the road. Not for use on the pavement or footpath."
},
{
"question": "How often should I charge my powerchair / Scooter?",
"answer": "It is advisable to put them on charge after every journey provided you will be able to give it an uninterrupted charge over 8 hours. If you are not using your powerchair or scooter you will still need to charge it every other day to main the best performance for the batteries."
},
{
"question": "How long should I charge my powerchair / Scooter?",
"answer": "For the best performance of the batteries on your scooter or powerchair, it is best to charge the batteries for a minimum of 8 hours (12 hours is the best time scales)."

"question": "What can I do?",
"answer": "This is a civil matter. If you are unable to reach an agreement with your neighbor, you may wish to contact the AK State Troopers, City Police, or a private land use attorney. For contact information, go to the Emergency contacts section. If you are not sure where your property corners are, Community Planning's Platting Office is available to assist with finding any existing plats/subdivisions that show where property corners were placed historically. You may then be able to use a metal detector to find your corner marker. But, if that doesn't work, you will need to hire a professional surveyor to physically locate existing. or place new, markers in the ground."

{
"question": "Is that an encroachment?",
"answer": "Encroachments are generally semi-permanent in nature and might include \"buildings, billboards, walls, fences, driveways, earthworks, culverts, pipe, poles, towers, gates or ditches placed so as to obstruct or impair proper use.\" But , the most common inquiry about encroachments seems to involve vehicles. 1. Does the alleged violation involve a \"structure, object, operation or material?\" If yes, continue. 2. Is it occurring in, on, under or over a \"public road\" or dedicated \"public area?\" If yes, continue. \"Public road\" means a highway, road, right-of-way, street, alley, bridge, walk, trail, tunnel or similar or related facility dedicated to public use. It does not include a private road or easement. \"Public area\" means land dedicated to public use for a square, park, greenbelt or recreational area. 3. Is it placed in such a manner as to either 1) \"impair, impede or obstruct proper use of the public road or area\" or 2) \"affect drainage patterns that will impair, impede, or obstruct proper use?\" If yes, continue. 4. Is it \"within the traveled way\" or \"obstructing the public use\" and it could not be considered a \"minor temporary object?\" If yes, then you have an encroachment and are ready to submit a complaint form. If the encroachment is occurring on a road or within a road right-of-way inside a Road Service Area (RSA), your complaint form will be forwarded to Rural Services. If it is occurring outside of an RSA, then it will be processed by Code Enforcement."

},
{
"question": "What can I do about someone who has blocked off or is parking vehicles in a road right-of-way, trail easement, or private easement?",
"answer": "The answer to this question can get quite case-specific. But, below is some generalized information that is intended to give some initial direction to get you started in the right direction. If the alleged violation is occuring on a road or within a road right-of-way inside a Road Service Area (RSA), contact Rural Services."
},
{
"question": "If it is occurring outside of an RSA or if the encroachments spilling into the road are connected to a \"junkyard\" (visit, \"What qualifies as a junkyard?",
"answer": "\"), contact Code Enforcement. If the alleged violation is occurring in a trail easement, contact the Trails Coordinator at 907-459-7401. If you are not sure whether or not a trail easement exists, contact Subdivision Platting at 907-459-1260. When ready, submit a complaint form. Please note that existing trails may or may not be legally established across private property and the FNSB might not have jurisdiction. If the alleged violation is occurring on a private easement, the FNSB has no jurisdiction."

"answer": "\"Junk\" means \"worn out, dismantled, inoperable or wrecked aircraft, vehicles or machinery or parts thereof, mobile homes or trailers, appliances or furniture, scrap building materials, metals, rubber, paper, plastic or other scrap or discarded materials.\" 2. Any unlicensed and operative vehicles which are used in the normal course of business on the property on which they are stored.\""
},
{
"question": "When is a junkyard required to have an approved drainage plan?",
"answer": "Junkyards are required to make provisions \"to prevent any contamination of the domestic water supply or excessive surface run-off from the property into adjoining lands or streams.\" For automobile salvage yards, a drainage plan must be approved by the DEC \"specifying the method of disposing of surface run-off from the site\" (FNSBC 18.96.130.C). The DEC administers a permit that covers runoff from an \"automobile salvage yard.\" So, if the junkyard is predominately automobiles, then the facility would need to apply for coverage under a Multi-Sector General Permit and develop a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP). Although there is no size threshold for the junkyard, it must be a business enterprise, not an individual with 20 cars on their home lot. The SWPPP can be prepared by the operator and does not necessarily require hiring a professional. The DEC has a template for the operator to fill in and an EPA Manual that helps describe the process of assembling the SWPPP. If you are considering submitting a SWPPP, please look at the DEC website and then contact the Stormwater Section of the Division of Water at 907-269-6283 for assistance through the process."

{
"question": "Do they have to be screened?",
"answer": "Junkyards are permitted uses only in the General Use (GU-1), Light Industrial (LI) and Heavy Industrial (HI) zoning districts and only when they fully comply with the requirements listed under FNSBC 18.96.130. Section B requires junkyards to be \"completely enclosed and obscured from the public view at all times by a sight-obscuring screen.\" \"Sight-obscuring screen\" means \"a year-round shield of sufficient height and volume to block from sight one abutting or nearby structure or use from another. This may include, but is not limited to, densely planted vegetation, decorative fencing or earthen berms, or a combination thereof\" (FNSBC 18.04.010.B). My neighbor has 10 dogs on one lot."

To see where minor kennels are allowed, visit \"Where can I open a new dog (or cat) kennel?\"\n\"Kennels, minor\" means \"a lot on which no fewer than five and no more than 24 dogs or cats, six months of age and older, are maintained out-of-doors or in unheated buildings.\""
},
{
"question": "Where can I open a new dog (or cat) kennel?",
"answer": "The FNSB Code includes two size thresholds for kennels: minor & major. \"Kennels, minor\" means \"a lot on which no fewer than five and no more than 24 dogs or cats, six months of age and older, are maintained out-of-doors or in unheated buildings\" (FNSBC 18.04.010.B). It is a permitted use only in the General Use (GU), Rural and Agricultural (RA) and Rural Farmstead (RF) zoning districts and is a conditional use in the Rural Estate (RE) zoning district. In the Rural Residential (RR) zoning district, it is a conditional use on lots of not less than 80,000 square feet in area. \"Kennels, major\" means \"a lot on which more than 24 dogs or cats, six months of age and older, are maintained out-of-doors, or in unheated buildings\" (FNSBC 18.04.010.B). It is a permitted use only in the General Use (GU), Rural and Agricultural (RA) and Rural Farmstead (RF) zoning districts. In the Rural Estate (RE) zoning district, it is a prohibited use in RE-2 and a conditional use in RE-4 on lots of not less than 160,000 square feet in area. For all other zoning districts, raising domestic or commercial livestock is a prohibited use."
},
{
"question": "Can I raise chickens, ducks, geese, bees, goats, etc on my property?",
"answer": "\"Domestic Livestock\" means \"any quantity of farm animals raised and/or kept for personal use or for occasional competitive use (i.e. 4H, FFA, etc)\" (FNSBC 18.04.010.B). It is a permitted use only in the General Use (GU), Rural and Agricultural (RA), Rural Farmstead (RF) and Rural Estate (RE) zoning districts and is a conditional use in the Outdoor Recreational (OR) zoning district. In the Rural Residential (RR) zoning district, it is a permitted use for lots greater than 80,000 square feet in area or a conditional use on lots less than 80,000 square feet in area. \"Commercial livestock\" means \"any quantity of farm animals kept with the intention of selling related goods and/or services\" (FNSBC 18.04.010.B). It is a permitted use only in the General Use (GU), Rural and Agricultural (RA) and Rural Farmstead(RF) zoning districts."

{
"question": "Do I need a building permit before starting construction?",
"answer": "Building permits are only required within the City of Fairbanks (907-459-6720) and City of North Pole (907-488-8593). Since the FNSB has not adopted a building code, building permits are not required in the Borough at-large outside of these two cities. However, a zoning permit may still be required whether within or outside of the city limits and, if commercial, you may still be required to get approval by the State Fire Marshal. You are required to obtain a zoning permit \"before any excavation, construction, reloction or installation is started for a new use\" (FNSBC 18.104.080.B). If within the GU zoning district, you may still opt to submit a zoning permit to establish a starting point for a use or the construction date for a structure. This could be helpful to affirm grandfather rights in the future. Please see FNSBC 18.84.020 for other uses within the GU zoning district that require a conditional use permit. Please note that all commercial marijuana establishments require approval via a zoning permit or conditional use permit."

[
{
"question": "What inspired the making of Bufo Alvarius?",
"answer": "We wanted to create an attractive cinematic documentary that would inform about the existence of Bufo Alvarius as well as the philosophical and anthropological aspects associated with this powerful psychedelic drug through artistic means. Thanks to the use of certain audio-visual techniques, we try to communicate our message through viewers’ experience. We didn’t aim to create a scientific movie."
},
{
"question": "What was the process of making the movie?",
"answer": "Our initial focus was on a group of volunteers who underwent the Bufo Alvarius experience in Colombia. With their permission, our director recorded their individual ceremonies. It made for such powerful viewing that the decision was made to shoot another set of interviews, and to incorporate original animations inspired by the hallucinogenic visuals of psychoactive 5-MeO-DMT, to create a full feature movie. The film was funded by Václav Dejčmar, a businessman, philanthropist, occasional producer and co-owner of DOX Prague, the largest private centre of contemporary art in Eastern Europe. His previous feature documentary I am Fishead, investigating psychopathic individuals in business and politics, has been seen by millions worldwide. Václav Dejčmar is also the author of the storyline within the Bufo Alvarius documentary which highlights the confrontation between a psychiatrist (rational side) and a practicing shaman (emotion). The neo-shaman Octavio Rettig, who works with Bufo Alvarius medicine, appears in your film."
},
{
"question": "Is it your intention to promote his work?",
"answer": "Not at all. As stated above, we aimed from the outset to use art as a mean of presenting information about Bufo Alvarius, at the time an almost unknown phenomenon. Our intention is definitely not to advocate any specific methods of administration nor to promote the work of any particular facilitator, simply to shine a light on the effects. We are not in close contact with Mr. Rettig or any other shaman or facilitator of Bufo Alvarius."
},
{
"question": "Why there is a no other shaman than Octavio Rettig in the movie?",
"answer": "The aim of the documentary is not to compare the facilitators themselves. Instead, we give our audience an understanding of the unique substance by way of animations, and the subjective testimonials taken from the various people who all personally underwent the Bufo Alvarius experience. The goal is to give our audience a unique glimpse into this spectacular phenomena without them actually taking the substance themselves. Some viewers may find reasons to never embark further on this journey, others may be intrigued to find out more about Bufo Alvarius. We respect whichever conclusion they come to."
},
{
"question": "Are you following the current confrontations related to facilitators and institutions involved in Bufo Alvarius?",
"answer": "We have been following these controversies and it is unsurprising. Even among the Indigenous peoples of Peru, we saw that many shamans and various shamanic lines have long been in dispute over many subjects. We are convinced, however, that this ‘human factor’ has no effect on the validity of our documentary’s content. Bufo Alvarius as a modern phenomenon is unbound to any tradition, unlike other natural psychoactive substances. The methods of its use and execution of ceremonies can differ widely. Our film does not aim to compare these individual practises, or the personalities who work with this substance, but to focus on its subjective effects. Anyone following these controversies have to rely on their common sense to make their own educated judgment."
},
{
"question": "Should not be all facilitators wise gurus immune to such controversies?",
"answer": "This opinion is naive for two reasons. Firstly, the Bufo Alvarius may give insight into the “higher order of reality”, like other psychedelics, but once the journey has come to an end each individual has to integrate the experience into their everyday lives. No bees no honey, no work no money 😉 Spiritual gurus in eastern traditions have undergone long years of spiritual practice. A one-time experience cannot be expected to result in a similar mindset, it can only act as a vehicle to a higher being, offering a glimpse of the light at the end of the tunnel. If the process is not finished by a proper and humble integration, it may lead to a “spiritual bypass” wherein the trainee can easily experience feelings of self-proclaimed enlightenment and epiphany. Without sufficient self-reflection, such a wretched and confused result is possible just after several psychedelic experiences. Secondly, the community around psychedelics is currently very diverse. Even among the traditional shamans themselves, there is not always a correlation between the quality of the facilitator (their practical ability to help people and successfully lead the ceremony) and his own spiritual maturity. Someone could find the movie unbalanced."
},
{
"question": "Why are there no testimonials of those who had a negative experience?",
"answer": "The truth is that during our months of shooting we did not encounter anyone who reacted negatively. Everyone in our film speaks truthfully about their own experience with the Bufo Alvarius. Nevertheless, we do always emphasize that this is a strong psychedelic which can affect each and every user differently. In some situations this could mean in undesirable ways. In both the documentary and our website, there are warnings about the potential contraindications, and in many places we highlight the crucial importance of adequate preparation, subsequent integration, and the role of the set and setting (the impact of the user’s mental state in combination with the physical and social environment during the ceremony). Many thank you for your interest in our documentary! From the Bufo Alvarius movie crew, we wish you the best of luck on your journey through life."

[
{
"question": "How do you structure your training programs?",
"answer": "Media training is intended to prepare you for interviews with members of the media. The point of the training is to provide you with an understanding of the media interview process, refine your messaging, and polish your delivery. Great media training and presentation training incorporates three key elements: solid business strategy, thorough knowledge of the media, and a deep understanding of human behavior. A media trainer whose only knowledge is of the media, versus a media trainer that also possesses a solid background that includes business strategy, is what makes the difference between a client’s media interview that goes relatively well, and one that makes a real and significant impact on your brand positioning and your bottom line. Generally, media training includes some education on what members of the media want, various interview formats, how to work with the camera, how to craft concise and thoughtful messaging and responses to questions, and how to convey charisma and energy in interviews. Most media training is “on-camera” training, which means that there will be a video camera pointed at you. If this makes you nervous, practicing interacting with the camera through media training will help you to become less nervous in future on-camera situations, be they media interviews, promotional videos or online presentations. Media trainers can prepare you for specific types of media interviews or for a wide variety of interview formats. Your media training sessions should be tailored to your needs. Whether you are preparing for print interviews, radio interviews or TV interviews, good media training should enable you to provide clear and concise responses, and to confidently present your position in a manner that reflects your brand. Anyone who could possibly be interviewed by the media should receive media training to protect the individual’s and the organization’s reputation and brand. Members of the media prefer to work with people who are prepared, and good media training is the best way to ensure this. Media training is important for corporate spokespeople, actors, music artists, athletes, executives, entrepreneurs, experts and other public figures."
},
{
"question": "Can’t I just read a book and get all the information I need?",
"answer": "No. The act of preparing for media interviews is intellectual, emotional and physical. To borrow and butcher a Thelonious Monk quote: talking about media training is like dancing about architecture. You have to experience it. Getting feedback in the moment and then making adjustments on the spot will help to create new patterns in your brain and enhance “muscle memory” with anything related to your body language: body language makes up approximately 93% of our communication. Media interviews are unlike any other conversation you will have in life. Even great public speakers and people who are comfortable in most situations need media training to understand how to handle various interview situations and formats and to avoid falling into the traps that can trip up someone who is unprepared. If you plan on using any media, including social media, to communicate with the public then media training can help you gain greater clarity and command of your message and it will help you avoid some of the costly and image-breaking mistakes that can be made without proper strategy and preparation. You don’t want to wait until you have the pressure of an interview to begin preparing."
},
{
"question": "What do I need to know about the media?",
"answer": "There is a lot to know about the media, and here are some links to get you started. To familiarize yourself with some of the terminology you will hear in media interviews, click here. Read our blog for many more tips. Do your research. Look at the experience of the trainer to ensure that he or she has a mix of business experience and media training experience. Read testimonials from other people who have received media training from this individual. If you are considering receiving training from a larger firm, be sure you learn about the experience of the individual who will be providing the training. Don’t assume that just because someone is good on camera that he or she will know how to train you. Just as some people are great actors, but not great acting coaches, the same is true with media trainers. Look for someone with a track record as a media trainer. Be sure that the media trainer has many years of experience working with a variety of media outlets. A deep understanding of the needs and the respective preferences of the media is necessary to be a good media trainer. Visiting this site is a good place to start. Check out our services page. For the informational portion of the media training session, we can accommodate any number of attendees. For the practice interviews, we can accommodate up to 10 people in a two-day session. However, several factors influence the number of people we recommend having in a media training session, including the complexity of the information the training participants will deliver, the experience level of each of the participants, and whether or not there are other situations for which the trainees must be prepared such as presentations, panels and trade shows. To discuss your group’s specific needs, call us at 310-479-0217. Fees for media training services can vary from firm to firm and client to client. Generally, fees begin around $1,500 and can go up to $20,000 or more depending on the number of people being trained, time involved and complexity of the material. It’s important to know what you are paying for. Some of the primary factors that influence fees for media training are listed here. If you have further questions, feel free to contact us. As with almost any service, you pay more for expertise and experience because it’s worth it. If you’re taking advice and receiving coaching, you want to make sure the people providing it have deep knowledge in their field and some strong testimonials. You can be trained to look and sound good in an interview that looks and sounds good, but there’s much more to making the most of every press opportunity. Experience in front of the camera does not necessarily mean that a trainer understands what it takes to grow a business or position clients to attract the deals they desire. To be a good media trainer, one must have experience positioning clients for growth in their field or to achieve goals that far exceed simply doing well in interviews. The depth of media training that you desire for yourself or anyone for whom you are representing may depend on the complexity of the content you deliver, the types of interviews for which you want to prepare, and your past experience. We generally hold a complimentary call to ask you questions to find out what will work best for you or the people who will receive media training. Then, we create a customized program to suit you. It’s good to be very realistic about how much time you want to devote to your media training program. We aim to create programs that make the best use of each individual’s time. This is one of the many reasons we customize our programs. If each person who is being trained will need individual attention and on-camera time, the number of people being trained influences the amount of time needed for the sessions, which influences pricing. If extensive travel is required, there can be some travel-related expenses. Many of our clients enjoy coming to our office in the Brentwood area of Los Angeles for their training, but we travel and serve clients worldwide. You don’t want to be left out in the cold after your training session. After media training sessions, it can be beneficial to hold a quick refresher call with your trainer just before an interview. We include these refresher calls as a complimentary service to our clients. When hiring anyone for a service that’s as subjective as media training, you should be able to get on the phone for a complimentary call to get your questions answered. We feel that that first call is important because it helps us to get a sense of you, in addition to giving us the opportunity to ask the questions we need answered in order to provide you with pricing on your media training program. We make sure that our rates are competitive and that our clients receive great value from our media training and presentation training. Request a quote or information. At the start of any client relationship, we learn about the client’s goals and needs and conduct research to prepare for the training session. We customize our programs for each client because each client’s needs are very specific. For example, some clients want us to focus more heavily on educating their teams on working with the media, others want a lot of help with strategic messaging, and some others want a blend of education, messaging, preparation for media interviews, presentations and panels. Call us to arrange your presentation training or media training in Los Angeles, or elsewhere: 310-479-0217."

"question": "How can I ensure a stable, long lasting piano tuning?",
"answer": "The first easiest thing you can do, is to place your piano in a suitable area of your home - see below. By controlling changes and extremes in humidity your piano will hold a tune longer, and the instrument will last longer. Maintain as consistent a temperature in your home as possible, and don’t move your piano after it’s been tuned. A safe humidity range for a piano is around 30 – 50% and ideally 40-45%. For a church that is mostly unoccupied during the week, optimal temperature settings would be not lower than 50°F / 10°C in the winter, and not higher than 80°F / 26°C in the summer. The best control of humidity can be achieved by installing a humidity control system like Damp Chaser: http://dampchaser.co.nz or Life Saver. Playing the piano is also a factor in how long a piano stays in tune. Hard and frequent playing eventually has an unsettling affect on tuning, and no playing at all can also be bad where strings begin settling, becoming riskier to tune later. Read more about the affects of changing humidity on a piano here."
},
{
"question": "Where is the best place to keep my piano?",
"answer": "When choosing the proper site for the piano in your home, keep in mind that no piano is immune to the many variables found in today's homes. The wood which makes up approximately 70% of your piano, reacts much the same as we do to fluctuations in our homes' temperature and humidity. Where you choose to place your piano can help to mitigate the effects of these variables and protect the stability of your piano's regulation, tuning, and voicing. For acoustic reasons, an upright piano should ideally be placed 8 or more inches away from the wall, to allow the sound to resonate out the back of the instrument. Preferably against an inside wall, otherwise an insulated outside wall. A good distance from a fireplace, stove, or heater. Away from an outside door. Not on concrete slab or brick, unless placed on a rug. Not in a damp basement, screened porch, garden room or kitchen."
},
{
"question": "I've done everything above, but why do I still have problems with tuning stability?",
"answer": "After assessing climate and placement, then there are other issues that could be causing the tuning to go out. Each string is wound around a steel tuning pin which is driven into a hole in a plank of wood called the pin block. Over the years seasonal fluctuations in humidity may cause the pin block to loosen its grip on the tuning pins. Some remedies exist which may help correct this condition and provide some additional years of use, but controlling the humidity is the best way to prevent this problem from happening in the first place. Apart from the most common cause of a loose tuning pin, there are occasional problems related to string friction, false beats, and poor rendering at the capo and bridge. A registered technician is needed to help with these problems. Dating your piano can often be done with a simple online search of the piano's brand name, along with the words \"serial\" \"range\" or \"date\". You will also need to find the serial number somewhere inside the piano. Some online resources like the Online Piano Atlas can be useful for this. More specialized brands might have their own website with serial ranges listed."

"question": "What can I look to assess a used piano?",

[
{
"question": "How do I use an app?",
"answer": "To open an app, just tap the icon (the picture on your device screen that symbolizes the app.) It will open, and you’ll either get right to playing your game, editing your photo, etc., or you’ll need to sign in with a username and password. To close your app with an Android, press the “recent applications” menu button. This will vary depending on your smartphone, but on some, it looks like a square at the bottom of your screen. Your apps will appear like a stack of cards. Swipe them to the right or left to close them. Go to this blog for detailed information on managing apps on your new iPhone."
},
{
"question": "So, where do you get apps?",
"answer": "It’s pretty simple: open Google Play or iTunes, and start typing the name of the app, if you know it. If you’re not sure what it’s called, type a keyword—the most descriptive word for what you’re looking for. You’ll see a list of apps, ranked by popularity, to choose from. The price for apps ranges. There are thousands of apps that are free, but most of these will have in-app advertisements. More complicated apps are likely to cost more money, and lots of apps have a basic, free version, with the option to upgrade for a fee. Apps costs vary widely: from $.99 for music and game apps to $899.99 for an app made to manage surveillance video feeds."
},
{
"question": "Which apps should I get?",
"answer": "Your phone likely has lots of cool apps already built in, like a flashlight, alarm clock or compass. But you might want a better compass, for example, with the ability to copy, share and view your coordinates in a map. For that, try Compass for Android phones. If you have an iPhone, try Compass x for iOS. If you want to get better with your smartphone photography, check out this blog with suggestions on photo editing apps. There are great apps for pretty much everything you might want to do, from translating a foreign language to identifying plants and animals, to calculating the right tip to leave at the café."
},
{
"question": "Can I have too many apps on my phone?",
"answer": "Yes, you can have too many apps. Apps require memory to run, and if you have too many apps on your phone, it will slow down or get glitchy. The fix is simple, though; simply uninstall your excess apps. If you have an Android phone, touch and hold the app icon on your screen until you see “Uninstall” on the screen. Then, drag the icon to “Uninstall.” If you have an iPhone, press and hold the app icon until it wiggles, then let go. Press the “X” on your app. “Are you sure?” will appear. Confirm that you want to delete your unwanted app. Done and done! Tip: this is also a good thing to try if one of your apps doesn’t appear to be working properly. Uninstall it, and then re-install by going to iTunes or Google Play and downloading it again."
},
{
"question": "How can I organize my apps?",
"answer": "You can move your apps to different screens (like your home screen) on your smartphone. Start by pressing your app until it either wiggles (iPhone) or your phone buzzes slightly (Android). Now, you can move it around. To change screens, keep your finger on the app and swipe it toward the next screen—as far right or left as you can go. You might have to try this a few times. Remember each phone is different, so your apps and screens may operate slightly differently than we’ve described here. Just keep experimenting!"

{
"question": "How often should I replace my smoke detectors or carbon monoxide detectors?",
"answer": "Smoke detectors typically last up to ten (10) years. As they reach the end of their useful life, they will typically \"beep\" and will not stop \"beeping\" even if new batteries are installed. Most smoke detectors also have a manufacture date sticker on the inside battery compartment or on the bottom plate of the smoke detector. New smoke detectors come with ten (10) year long-life batteries installed which cannot be changed and when the battery is depleted, it is time to replace the entire smoke detector assembly. Carbon Monoxide (CO) detectors have a shorter life span - typically five (5) years. When they reach the end of their useful life, they typically go into \"alarm\" and will not stop, even if reset and/or new batteries are installed. Like smoke detectors, CO detectors typically have a manufacture date sticker on the inside battery compartment or on the bottom/backside plate of the detector. When replacing smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors, look for units that have been independently tested and have either the Underwriters Laboratory (UL) seal or Factory Mutual (FM) seal. Smoke detectors should be installed (as a minimum) on every floor and inside every bedroom of your home.Smoke detectors with both ionization and photoelectric sensors (i.e. dual sensors) provide the most protection. Don't put smoke detectors in your kitchen or bathrooms, since cooking smoke and/or moisture will cause false activation of the detector. The Fire Department recommends selecting a CO detector unit with a digital read-out for easy of use. Smoke detectors and Carbon Monoxide (CO) detectors can be purchased regionally at Wal-Mart, Target, ACE Hardware, Home Depot, and Lowes. 6."

},
{
"question": "Can I rake leaves into the street for collection by the Village?",
"answer": "The Public Works Department reminds residents not to deposit leaves into streets. Leaves intentionally raked into the street results in a clear and immediate detrimental impact on the Village’s storm sewer system. As we are all aware, rainfall during the fall season in our area is standard. Leaves deposited into the street will inevitably result – during periods of even relatively minor rainfall – in clogged storm sewer inlets and localized flooding. Correcting such problems takes significant man-hours and results in substantial added costs. The Village’s existing contract with Waste Management – Northwest provides for alternative methods by which residents may dispose of leaves and other forms of yard waste. In addition to paper yard waste bags, residents may use plastic or metal garbage cans – the latter, of course, being emptied and returned to the resident for future use. Instead of the ongoing expense relating to the purchase of paper yard waste bags, residents may wish to make a one-time investment into one or more plastic and/or metal garbage cans for this use. The Village insisted on this provision in the contract and is one of only a few communities where such a disposal method is available. Moreover, the Village eliminated the requirement of residents to purchase yard waste \"stickers\" for each bag/can of yard waste disposed. Again, the intent of the Village was to provide a program offering the greatest ease and least amount of inconvenience to its residents."
},
{
"question": "9. Who is responsible for the maintenance of streetlights?",
"answer": "Streetlights mounted on wooden poles are the responsibility of Commonwealth Edison (ComEd). The Village rents these lights from ComEd and is not authorized to undertake any repairs.

To report a problem, please contact the Public Works Department at 847-279-6900. You will be advised if the streetlight in question is Village maintained or privately owned. 10."

{
"question": "Why does my water often appear cloudy during colder periods of the year?",
"answer": "The cloudy appearance is simply air trapped in the water that dissipates when the water warms. It is not harmful and is completely safe to drink. 13."
},
{
"question": "What can I do to prevent my water lines from freezing?",
"answer": "During unusually cold weather, it is important that you allow heated air in your home to come into contact with as much of your interior plumbing system as possible. If your water meter is in a closet, leave the door open and clear the immediate area around the meter of obstructions. The most effective measure you can take is to let four faucets slowly drip (not flow) to keep the water in your private service line (the line from the Village’s water main to your home) moving and, therefore, resistant to freeze. If you think your water lines may be frozen, contact the Utility Division of the Public Works Department immediately at 847-279-6900, Monday - Friday between the hours of 7 a.m. and 3:30 p.m., or at 847-459-2632 after normal hours. 1."

"question": "Where can I find my course textbook in the library?",
"answer": "If your instructor has put an item on reserve, you can find it at the Circulation/Reserve Desk on the 2nd floor. The item may be a textbook or video that the instructor wants the entire class to see or access. Because an entire class of students might need to see the item, the check-out period is shorter than an item from the General Collection. Check-out lengths vary depending on the item but are usually around 2 hours. To check to see if your class textbook is on Reserve, you can check by course (eg: ENG 1320) or by professor's last name. Not ALL textbooks are on Reserve but sometimes the library has the book as part of the General Collection; search the Library Catalog. If the Library does not have your textbooks for checkout, you'll need to check with the University Bookstore for purchase/rental options."

|
[
{
"question": "This month, we sat down with Jeff Roolf, CEO of SHS here in Denver, CO.\nJeff, if you could tell me what services does Seniors Helping Seniors provide?",
"answer": "We provide a long list of non-medical services referred to as “assistance with activities of daily living” including things like, meal preparation, companionship, light housekeeping, laundry, transportation to errands or Dr.’s appointments, companionship and much, much more. Awesome. Thank you."
},
{
"question": "Can you tell me a little bit about your selection criteria and process for finding caregivers?",
"answer": "Specifically how you do it. Our agency seems to be a magnet for like minded mature, caring individuals who want to help. We are connected throughout the community with organizations and facilities that work with seniors and share our information, We do go through an extensive screening process and background check. A lot of our care providers come from a medical profession, have retired but want to stay connected and help people. They want to have a purpose but they don't want the heavy schedule and the stress that they had with their medical career. We provide a great opportunity to stay active and connected, with a schedule that works better for them, and also in an environment that's less stressful. It works very well."
},
{
"question": "What would you say?",
"answer": "Our pricing varies depending on the services provided and the amount of time that is needed and at this point ranges from $18.50 up to $25 per hour based on those factors that I mentioned. Once we have met and assessed the client an exact rate is established. If Clients needs change and more hours are needed, the hourly rate can go down."
},
{
"question": "Tell me a little bit about what makes you guys different, compared to all other in-home care companies, you know, across the country?",
"answer": "Seniors Helping Seniors is focused on relationships and keeping people together. It is common for us to hear from new clients that another agency “had a different person showing up each week” or “I was a bit put off by the tattoos and piercings”. Somebody can have the skills to provide the service but be a horrible match. We look at people and personalities not just employee skills and services requested."
},
{
"question": "We ask; “will they enjoy spending time together”?",
"answer": "That's important to us. The whole reason that Seniors Helping Seniors exists, is that we've identified that a more mature care provider - someone at least closer to the generation of the care receiver, is going to have an easier time establishing rapport, and developing a relationship. We focus on both sides of the senior equation - then do everything in our power to keep good matches together. More specifically on the cost associated, cause I know that ... I mean, a lot of this ... This is something I'll take out, but a lot of the searches online are related to the pricing."
},
{
"question": "Do you offer integration with third party payers, like Medicare and all that stuff?",
"answer": "Seniors Helping Seniors offers an excellent value for in home care. Our hourly rates are lower than other reputable, licensed agencies and our care providers stand head and shoulder above those of the competition. We accept long term care insurance or private pay. Usually Medicaid, or Medicare will not pay for non-medical services, and our agency is not set up to take Medicaid, or Medicare."
},
{
"question": "Do people have a say as far as who specifically comes into the house?",
"answer": "Every senior we work with will have complete control over who comes into their home! We will always do an in-person introduction to ensure that all parties are completely comfortable before services start. Since our priority is to put people together to form a long-term relationship, the two co-owners of this agency, Jeff and Stacy, do every new client assessment and every new hire interview. We get to know people. We have a list of questions that we ask to identify personality types, attitudes, preferences, and commonalities. Then we put people together based on that information ... It's a process that has been working extremely well. We are continuing to match people based on a long list of factors and criteria."
},
{
"question": "Do your potential clients need a physicians authorization for your services?",
"answer": "No. There's no physicians’ authorization needed, but we do coordinate care with medical agencies, doctor’s offices and hospice companies. A lot of times, a medical professional will recommend a certain amount or type of care and we work with them to make sure that we're providing what is best for the client. We will do everything possible to keep them as healthy and happy as possible."
},
{
"question": "What geography do you guys cover?",
"answer": "We cover Jefferson County Colorado exclusively, which includes Lakewood, Littleton, Arvada, Golden, Westminster and Wheat Ridge. We also work in all of northwest Denver."
},
{
"question": "How would you partner with one?",
"answer": "We have many clients who live in assisted living facilities who want to augment the services provided. Sometimes they have specific preferences on how those services are provided and they like the Seniors Helping Seniors way of doing things. It's common for us to move with someone, help with the packing and organizing and help them in the transition. Then we will provide specific services that will enhance the care they receive in assisted living. It's common for a facility to have some sort of an ala carte menu so a resident can add on services, and sometimes they would just prefer to have those add-ons done by our senior care providers, especially if there's been a relationship established, or if there's resistance to new faces, which is pretty common with seniors. We have found that with a senior care provider, that resistance is not quite as great. It is also common for us to take people out of the facility for activities, or excursions, and fun things they enjoy. Sometimes it's just companionship, and we do puzzles, games, or activities that would be engaging to that senior."
},
{
"question": "What is the Seniors Helping Seniors biggest differentiating factor compared to other In-Home Care companies out there?",
"answer": "The only other thing I would like to touch on is what differentiates us ... We are focused on the total well-being of seniors. We offer alternatives like pet and music therapy. These are not formal types of “therapy” but we do use music in our relationships, and it has been a blessing. We have also seen great results with simple visits from our trained support dog, Olive the Pug. She has brought smiles and laughter to many faces who hadn’t expressed joy in some time. It’s this kind of continuing focus on our prime directive of enriching the lives of the people we work with that differentiates us."

{
"question": "How is Superflite different from other covering systems on the market?",
"answer": "Superflite manufactures everything you need to cover your airplane – fabric, tapes, accessories, glue, primer, and paint – and it’s all approved for use on certified aircraft. The fabric covering portion of an aircraft restoration project is essentially the same with every coating system – glue the fabric to the frame, shrink it, stitch it, and then apply the surface tapes. Where Superflite really stands out from the competition is with its actual coatings – the part that comes after the fabric covering. Superflite doesn’t require a fabric filler or “silver” coats. Instead, it combines those two steps into one with the fabric primer. After attaching the fabric and shrinking it, you’ll apply two coats of primer, sand it, and then apply two coats of paint. That’s it, three steps and four coats of product to cover and paint your plane. The competition requires an extra step, several extra coats, and much more sanding. The Superflite urethane topcoat provides a high-gloss show finish with minimal effort, meaning, when you spray it, it comes out shiny. There is no need to sand, buff, or reshoot for that ultra-gloss “wet look.” It is a quality finish with minimal labor. In addition to the easy application and the high-gloss finish, a Superflite covering kit costs about 20% less than the major competition."
},
{
"question": "How much can I expect to spend on Superflite covering materials for my plane?",
"answer": "Depending on the color of paint that you choose, for a Cub-sized airplane, you can expect to spend anywhere from $4000-$4500. That includes everything you need from fabric to finish."
},
{
"question": "Can I use Superflite on my certified airplane?",
"answer": "Yes! In fact, we encourage it. The Superflite STC covers almost every type of aircraft, and if yours isn’t on our list, we can have it added in a matter of weeks. When you’ve purchased your covering kit, Superflite will provide a copy of the STC and a letter of permission to use it."
},
{
"question": "How long will it take me to recover my airplane using Superflite?",
"answer": "It all depends on the extent of your restoration and how quickly you work. A typical and average-sized covering/restoration project, which includes an airframe inspection, will probably take about 200 hours."
},
{
"question": "What if I don’t like any of the colors on the Superflite color chart?",
"answer": "Superflite does NOT provide any kind of chip matching. However, if you have a competing paint code that you’d like to use (PPG, Dupont, Imron, Sherwin Williams, car manufacturer colors), we can usually cross those into a Superflite match for you."
},
{
"question": "Where can I buy Superflite?",
"answer": "Superflite is available through a select list of distributors (call or email for that list), or you can purchase directly from us."

"question": "How much will a clinic visit cost?",
"answer": "The specific amount of these costs will vary depending on your insurance plan and the type of visit. If you have health insurance your services may be subject to deductible, co-insurance, and/or co-payment requirements set by your insurance plan. A deposit may be required at the time of service. If you do not have health insurance we will ask for a $100 deposit at the initial visit and $80 at return visits. At no time do we want financial hardship to come between you and appropriate care. If you have any questions regarding this prepayment policy, setting up a payment plan or financial assistance, please contact a financial counselor at (501) 747-2828. In addition, the customer service department of your insurance company will be able to provide you information regarding your out-of-pocket expenses. For your first visit you should bring a completed health history questionnaire, a list of current medications, a state ID card, and your insurance card. You should also bring cash, a check, or credit card to cover any visit co-payments. Returning patients can reduce their wait time by accessing their account on the patient portal to update their information. If you have trouble accessing the patient portal, please contact us. We are currently located on the second floor of the Little Rock Diagnostic Clinic, above the endoscopy center. Our address is 10001 Lile Drive, Suite 200, Little Rock, Arkansas 72211. The amount of time varies depending on the type of problem. New visits typically last between 30 – 60 minutes. Return visits are shorter. We value your time and try to run on time, but emergencies and unexpected events sometimes cause delay."

},
{
"question": "Q: Why won't the code compile?",
"answer": "A: All Best Of BI Community Edition projects include valid Eclipse project configurations and Apache Ant build.xml scripts. After checking out the code for the first time, Eclipse will complain about some missing Java source files. These sources need to be generated by the Ant build using apt, the Annotation Processing Tool. Executing the default Ant target and then refreshing the Eclipse workspace should be enough to get the whole project to compile without any errors. Note: All our products now compile and run on Java 6 or newer. If you had been developing in any of our code bases prior to July 2010, you would have been compiling against Java 5."

[
{
"question": "How does a structured settlement broker get paid?",
"answer": "A structured settlement broker earns a commission as a licensed insurance agent or broker. There is no per hour fee charged to either plaintiffs or defendants. The commission is contingency based compensation that is paid by the life insurance company issuing the structured settlement annuity either directly to the broker or via the broker's agency. At present the standard gross commission paid by all annuity issuers is 4% of premium. With certain companies the qualified assignment fee is not commissionable. If there is no structured settlement placed then the structured settlement broker does not get paid. Most states have longstanding anti-rebating laws that prohibit the rebating of insurance commissions to customers. On many structured settlement transactions there are multiple structured settlement brokers. Where there are multiple brokers the commissions are split in a manner similar to real estate brokerage commissions."

"question": "Still need our help?",
"answer": "Click here to contact us. A: Family bank statements; financial aid letters; scholarship letters; documentation from a sponsor. A: We have dedicated drivers on the Saturday prior to your start date. If you are interested in immigration rules of arrival, you cannot be in the US more than 30 days prior to your start date. A: On the first day of class, you will take placement tests to determine your level. However, if you do have an official TOEFL or IELTS score, please provide it on the day of testing as it can be considered when making your placement. A: All non-immigrant students are required to have student health insurance while in the US. If you choose to have health insurance from another source, please provide the student health insurance card to the Director of Admissions on your first day of classes. A: There are no requirements beyond the application process to study English with TLC. We will test your level of English upon arrival. A: TLC can issue the I-20 for you to take to the American consulate in your country to apply and interview for visa approval. A: You can use the SEVIS number on the I-20 from TLC to pay your fee on the SEVIS website before your visa appointment. A: The most effective way to pay is online through our \"Make a Payment\" page. If you prefer to pay online through Flywire in your own currency, it may save you exchange fees or prevent the need to carry considerable cash with you when traveling. Also, each TLC location can provide bank wire instructions. Otherwise, upon arrival (first day of class) you can pay via cash, check, credit, or debit card. A: TLC requires tuition prepayment from select countries (see list); if your country is on the list, we will ask that this be paid within 10 days of you receiving your visa approval. Initial fees will be required at the time of application in order to receive the I-20. Prepaying multiple sessions of tuition before you begin the program may also allow for a tuition discount. Prepaying program fees as indicated on your I-20 may also help in your visa approval process as it shows your true intent and financial capability to be in the U.S for studies. A: According to U.S. law, only children and one spouse may be listed as a dependent on the F-1 student's I-20. A: Yes, TLC has academic placement services and a network of over 200 cooperative schools. Many of these schools recognize completion of our program in lieu of score requirements. Please begin by completing this form. A: Yes, you must complete the necessary forms and pay the necessary fees in order for TLC to arrange and provide services. To find homestay policies, please visit our homestay page. To download necessary forms for airport transfer and the homestay application, please visit our forms & downloads page. A: Please refer to TLC's refund policy. Proof of visa denial is required and the application and courier fees are non-refundable regardless of visa approval or denial. A: Your application with TLC is valid for one year from the date of the signature on your TLC application. A: Your I-20 is valid for the start date listed and subsequent start dates listed in the remarks section. Sometimes the port of entry officer may ask for verification from the school if you are traveling after the INITIAL PROGRAM START DATE listed on the I-20. You can request a “travel letter” from the school before leaving for the US. A: The fees are different for each program. Most fees are collected each session (every four weeks). Please check our fees. A: Available housing depends on the location. We recommend booking housing at least one session in advance. Your housing is not booked without the appropriate forms and fees being submitted. Cost depends on the location because of the differences in cost of living for each city. Many TLC centers are in the middle of the U.S and can provide affordable housing options. Check the pricing by viewing our housing options. A: You can obtain a conditional letter of acceptance from many of TLC's partners. Please indicate your need for this when completing this academic placement form. A: To view university partners and majors of interest, please visit our affiliate page. A: To filter the list of TLC Partners to fit your academic preferences, please visit our affiliate page. For additional clarification or information, please email [email protected]. A: We will provide a placement test upon arrival. Every four weeks, each student has the opportunity to advance to the next level. We have levels to accommodate beginning, intermediate, and advanced English abilities. If you have taken TOEFL or IELTS, you can also gauge your length of study prior to arrival by viewing our equivalency chart in our brochure. A: There are many reasons why studying English in a full-immersion environment is better for the student acquisition and mastering of the English language for personal, professional, or academic reasons. In many countries, students learn English from a young age. However, they are generally not proficient in all areas of English necessary to succeed in an American institution: reading, writing, listening, speaking, and grammar. TLC's program helps the student to be proficient in all areas of the English language and to be successful in an American classroom setting. Additionally, many American institutions will require the international student to prove proficiency in English through meeting the maximum score requirements or completing an English program. Many TLC partner schools have validated through survey, research, and professor feedback, that international students who studied English with TLC are far more successful in their studies than students who only studied English in their home country. A: TLC does not offer full scholarships for ESL studies. We do, however, offer generous promotions and discounts. A: TLC is an accredited program, has nearly 35 years of experience in the field, is family-owned and operated, and remains very involved in strengthening the field of international education. We use a variety of proven methodologies to effectively meet student need. We meet each student where he/she is and build on previous knowledge and understanding. A: TLC may combine appropriate levels depending on factors each session, such as enrollment and student goals. All necessary level objectives will be met in this case. The average class size is about 10 students."

{
"question": "Q: If I wish to go to a university after studying English, do I need to go on the university's I-20?",
"answer": "A: Your I-20 record will be with TLC while you study English and then TLC will easily transfer your I-20 record to your next school. So, if coming from your country, you will come first on TLC's I-20. A: Yes, TLC will not hold your immigration record. However, if you enter on TLC's I-20, you will be obligated to the first session of tuition and incurred fees. Please carefully read the TLC Cancellation and Refund Policy to know your rights. A: The classroom hours depend on the program chosen. Please view your program hours by visiting our program pricing page. Instructional hours begin on First Tuesday and end on Final Thursday each session. Orientation for new students is held on First Monday. No classes are held on First Monday or Final Friday. A: U.S law states that a student can only work on-campus if authorized by the school or if allowed optional or curricular practical training by the school. Otherwise, working on an F-1 visa outside the campus is not permitted. A: It is possible to change your status while in the U.S. However, there is a fee and depending on the requested status, it could take up to 7 months for the decision. Until approval is given, the student must maintain his/her current status. An extension of the current status may be required."
},
{
"question": "Q: If I choose to start school on a certain date, but I cannot get a visa at that time, can I change the start date to the next month?",
"answer": "A: TLC provides 3 start dates on an I-20 in the notes section, so if a student has any delays they can still arrive on the following 2 start dates. If the new start date is beyond those listed on the I-20, you can request a new I-20 be sent to you with the appropriate start dates. An express mailing fee may be required for additional I-20s."

http://www.wage-claims.com/faq/for-employers/my-employee-filed-a-wage-claim/
|
[
{
"question": "What Do I Do?",
"answer": "Employees file wage claims with the Labor Commissioner (also commonly called the Labor Board) when they believe their employer has not paid them all wages owed. These wages include minimum wage, overtime, doubletime,commissions, travel time, meal periods, rest periods, and more. The employee, if he or she no longer works for the employer, will likely also seek penalties. Once an employee files a wage claim, the Labor Commissioner will send a notice to the affected employer that identifies the name of the employee and the claims made. The notice will likely include a date for a “conference” to take place between the employee, employer, and usually a Deputy Labor Commissioner. Read about the Labor Commissioner Conference here. If the case does not resolve at the Labor Commissioner conference and the Deputy Labor Commissioner believes that there are some possible claims being made by the employee, the Deputy will likely prepare a formal “Complaint” for the employee to sign. The Complaint will include all of the employee’s wage claims against the employer — better said, it will include those claims that will be adjudicated from that point forward. The employer then usually files an “Answer” to the Complaint. The Answer sets forth the employer’s position and includes affirmative defenses (examples include: the “employee” was really an independent contractor or was exempt from the payment of overtime). Typically, once the employee files its Answer (but sometimes in conjunction with service of the Complaint on the employer) the Deputy Labor Commissioner will set a date for the hearing on the employee’s wage claim. The Hearing is an administrative proceeding that is like a bench trial. That is, there is one “judge” or “administrative law judge” (ALJ) that presides over the hearing and acts as judge and jury. The ALJ can be the senior Labor Commissioner in the office where the wage claim is filed. At the Hearing, each side will present its case to the ALJ. Parties may call witnesses to testify on their behalf. Parties can cross-examine witnesses, including the employee-claimant and any other employees of the employer. In short, the Hearing is a mini-trial, except that there is no jury. The ALJ will hear the evidence and make a ruling — sometimes he or she will issue the ruling/decision quickly (i.e., in a week or so) and sometimes longer. In one of our cases, the Hearing took place in June 2008, and as of February 2010 he still has not issued his decision. Many employers are represented by an attorney in the wage claim process. Attorneys can help negotiate on behalf of the employer. Experienced wage claim attorneys also represent the employer at the Conference and Hearing. Because many, if not most, employees represent themselves in wage claims, an employer may find great benefit in hiring an attorney to defend it. If you are an employer who is now facing a wage claim in California, contact us now. Some of our attorneys solely represent employers in these types of cases. We find that, because we represent employees in CA wage claims, we can better represent employers too. We know the ins and outs of the system."

"question": "1.Who can refer me to an occupational therapists?",
"answer": "Educational support aids/assistants, Specialist Teachers. It is best to bring along any reports, results or letters that your child may have so that we may have a better understanding of your child needs."
},
{
"question": "2.What is the frequency and content of therapy?",
"answer": "The frequency of session depends on each individual child’s needs and his/her family dynamics. Initially the frequency of session may be higher, however depending on his/her progress, this may reduce. Also, if the child’s advocates are able to perform more activities from home or school, this will also impact on speed of progress. Home work/ practices may be provided to support this. On some occasions, a sensory diet may be prescribed for your child as home therapy."
},
{
"question": "3.When will I start to see a change in my child’s behaviours and performance?",
"answer": "It depends on a variety of factors such as the severity of the child’s issues, motivation of the child, the follow-through of home therapy programs, and the various techniques and activities that are implemented."
},
{
"question": "1.How does Therapeutic listening help with my child’s behaviour?",
"answer": "Therapeutic Listening (TL) is an expansion of Sensory Integration. It is an auditory intervention that uses the organized sound patterns inherent in music to impact all levels of the nervous system. Auditory information from Therapeutic Listening CDs provides direct input to both the vestibular and the auditory portions of the vestibular-cochlear continuum. The emphasis of TL is on blending sound intervention strategies with vestibular and proprioceptive input, core development, and breath activities so as to sustain grounding and centering of the body and mind in space and time. These would help assist a child in better self-regulation, and therefore, better behaviour in various settings."
},
{
"question": "1.Why is my child’s handwriting still so poor?",
"answer": "Posture and Stability: Child has to be able to utilize core muscles appropriately to maintain good posture and stability when sitting at the table to perform writing tasks. Fine Motor Skills: These are required to strengthen the intrinsic muscles of the hands required for better control and strength when writing. Visual Perception: These include skills copying off the board, writing with appropriate spaces between words, and formation of alphabets and numbers with consistent sizes. Kinesthetic Awareness: This is how the pencil feels on a child’s hand, and includes child’s ability to grip the pencil appropriately. Ocular Motor Control: For writing to be successful, the child needs to have organized eye movement across prints, and have appropriate near-far accommodation to copy off the board. Before writing is trained, we have to ensure that the child meets the above at a certain standard. 2.Whenever my child returns from the shopping centre, she will not want to participate in any table-top tasks (handwriting) for the next few hours."
},
{
"question": "Why is this so?",
"answer": "Your child may have some concerns with sensory modulation or self-regulation which may cause her to be overwhelmed after going to a noisy and crowded shopping centre. This results in your child not being able to regulate himself/herself to an optimal arousal level in order to participate in a table-top task such as handwriting. In this case, there are therapy techniques which may alleviate such concerns allowing your child to participate better in their daily activities and programs in different environments."
},
{
"question": "1.How do I know if my child has a sensory integration/ sensory processing disorder?",
"answer": "If your child has concerns in sensory-based areas, such as being defensive, under-responsive or seeks excessive sensory inputs of touch, sounds, smells, visuals, taste; have a poor sense of balance or body awareness and discrimination, there is a possibility that your child may have a sensory integration/ sensory processing disorder. Thus, you can consider bringing your child to see a therapist at our Occupational Therapy Centre for a comprehensive sensory profile assessment. If after conducting standardised assessments and clinical observations for your child, as well as meet up with you for a parent interview/ discussion, the therapist assesses that your child has a sensory integration/ sensory processing disorder, an individualised therapy plan will be discussed in collaboration with you to help your child manage better in different tasks and environments."
},
{
"question": "2.Will my child outgrow his behaviours (tantrums and hitting of head)?",
"answer": "If your child’s behaviours are secondary to a primary reason such as sensory integration/ sensory processing disorder, it is likely that these behaviours will not be resolved unless appropriate therapy is provided. If after assessment, the child is diagnosed not to have a sensory processing disorder, alternative methods such as applied behavioural therapy may be applied to resolve these behaviours."
},
{
"question": "3.What is a sensory diet and what kind of activities can I do to help my child be regulated and organized?",
"answer": "A sensory diet is an individualised activity plan, constructed to the child’s sensory needs throughout the day. If you are unsure of how to come up with the activities, you can bring your child in for an assessment, and a therapist at our Occupational Therapy Centre will discuss with you and suggest several activities to meet the individualised needs of your child. 4.My child cries each time I bring him to school, and do not want to attend school."
},
{
"question": "What are some of the reasons why?",
"answer": "If separation anxiety emotional reasons are ruled out, perhaps your child may have a sensory-based issue, such as being defensive to touch, sounds, smells, visual inputs, taste, have a poor sense of balance or body awareness and discrimination, which may cause him or her to be very uncomfortable or overwhelmed in noisy and crowded school environment. If that is the case, you can consider bringing in your child to centre for a sensory profile assessment. 5.Whenever my child returns from the shopping centre, she will not want to participate in any table-top tasks (handwriting) for the next few hours."

Slots: A game server always allows only a certain number of players at the same time. Similar to seats on a bus, each one gets a seat, as long as there are seats available. If the bus is full, no one can enter. Another player can join when a person has left the server. Lag: If the game experiences small dropouts or the game doesn't run smoothly, many will call this phenomenon \"Lag\". This can have several causes, such as a congested Internet connection or a high resource usage on the server. Spawn: If a player enters in a game, he appears at a defined location on the virtual world. This particular point is called spawn point. Crafting: In Minecraft, you can create new items based on raw materials. This is called \"Crafting\""

"question": "Will You Support Other Platforms?",
"answer": "I did have plans to build some kind of ports. Most of MacDown’s core functionalities are based on C libraries (except autocomplete), so it won’t be hard to replicate something similar with other GUI frameworks. I don’t currently have the time, but I’ll be more than happy to share the details if you are interested."

{
"question": "How About macOS Versions Earlier Than 10.8?",
"answer": "The main problem here is that I don’t have enough resources to promise API compatibility without seriously slowing down development. Unless I build some kind of CI services, backward compatibility is easier said than done. One possibility here, however, is to provide support via a cross-platform port (see previous question). As far as I know, most cross-platform GUI frameworks support all the way back to 10.6, so this could be a stone that kills two birds. If someone does that. GFM (GitHub Flavoured Markdown) is a mix of standard Markdown, and some non-standard syntaxes that add additional functionalities and/or more ease for a particular group of people to write. MacDown provides lots of switches to let you choose what non-standard syntax(es) you want to use, and you can get almost all features in GFM if you configure them correctly. Check out the Features page to find out what extensions MacDown provides. And “Task list syntax” in the Rendering preference pane."

{
"question": "Will There Be a VIM Mode?",
"answer": "No. VIM edit mode is a topic too big. I leveraged a lot on macOS’s built-in text editing functionalities when implementing the editor, and implementing VIM mode means that I’ll need to tear them all down and start from the ground up. This doesn’t fit well with the direction of the project. There are several VIM plugins that can achieve similar things, just search for vim markdown preview in your search engine. Or I would recommend Sublime Text instead if you really want something more GUI. Enabling extensions like Vintage, Markdown Extended (or MarkdownEditing or others, pick what suits you), and Markdown Preview should be enough. I Have a Question/Problem/Suggestion."

Congress chief spokesperson Randeep Surjewala made the announcement, saying, “There is no conversation with AAP or with any other party on any electoral alliance either in Punjab or in Haryana. In these states, we will fight alone.” Asked if the long speculated Congress and AAP alliance in Delhi will come through any time soon, Surjewala said the matter was under discussion and Delhi chief Sheila Dikshit will take a call. “We will soon announce the development as and when there is any. Wait for a while,” Surjewala said after Congress president Rahul Gandhi recently left the decision to the state unit. The Congress and AAP have remained engaged in prolonged discussions on seat sharing in Delhi, with AAP even exerting pressure on the Congress through NCP chief Sharad Pawar and TMC president conversation ❝ There’s noAAPinHaryana or alliance with or Punjab.

AAP had proposed a formula under which there would be a threestate alliance with the Congress in Delhi, Punjab and Haryana. The Congress has, however, steadfastly refused any understanding with AAP in Punjab or Haryana. In Haryana, too, the Congress is preparing to go it alone. It now remains to be seen whether Delhi CM and AAP convener Arvind Kejriwal stitches a pact with the Congress in Delhi after the party openly rejected his condition for seat sharing in Haryana and Punjab. In Delhi, the two parties are said to be discussing an alliance of 4-3 seats, with four in favour of AAP . The BJP has also kept its Delhi strategy close to the chest and is awaiting the outcome of Congress-AAP talks. Tourist, pilot die in 185 candidates, Nizamabad MEA: Pak’s action HPparaglider crash poll cost pegged at ~35 crore remark ‘hysterical’ Mandi, April 7 Two persons were killed when their paraglider crashed in Kullu district today. The deceased have been identified as Althwaf Bachu (23), a tourist from Kerala, and pilot Naresh Kumar (25), a native of Kullu district. The deceased tourist had gone to Dobhi along with his friends to enjoy paragliding. Around 1 pm, the paraglider took off, but Naresh Kumar lost control over it. While Bachu died on the spot, the pilot succumbed to injuries at the Regional Hospital, Kullu. Kullu Superintendent of Police Shalini Agnihotri said the post-mortem of the deceased would be conducted tomorrow. The family of the deceased has been informed about the incident. The police have registered a case and investigation is on. In the past six months, over 10 paragliders have crashed at different places in Kangra and adjoining Mandi districts, injuring 10 persons. Several organisations have demanded a ban on tandem flights. Though the authorities have laid down rules and guidelines, these are hardly followed. Checks are carried out only when reports of illegal flying are published. Billing in Kangra district is among the top 10 paragliding sites in the world. During the World Cup in October last year, Singaporean pilot Kok Chang died after his paraglider crash landed in the high mountains of Dhauladhars. — TNS 170 farmers in fray against CM’s daughter as mark of protest Hyderabad, April 7 With 185 candidates, including over 170 farmers, in the fray for the Nizamabad Lok Sabha seat, the cost of making arrangements for the April 11 poll would be about Rs 35 crore, Rs 15 crore more than the average.

The court posted the matter for April 8. — PTI New Delhi, April 7 India today said it reserved the right of swift reprisal in case Pakistan Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi’s “irresponsible” statement caused it to suffer another cross-border attack. It described Qureshi’s statement about another imminent attack on Pakistan by this month-end as a “public gimmick that appears to be a call to terrorists based on its soil to undertake a cross-border terror attack”. The Ministry of External Affairs saw the “`hysterical statements” as an attempt to obfuscate the core issue of cross-border terrorism and advised Pakistan to use the established diplomatic and DGMO channels to share any actionable and credible intelligence it had on imminent terror attacks. The MEA statement came after Qureshi said Pakistan had “reliable intelligence” that India is planning to attack again between April 16 and 20. In an attempt to internationalise the bilateral dispute, Pakistan Foreign Secretary Tehmima Janjua held an emergency briefing of P-5 envoys (US, the UK, France, Russia and China) on Friday, asking the international community to “take notice of this irresponsible behaviour and restrain India from embarking on this path”. India has upped the ante after major attacks on security forces in Uri and Pulwama, with counter-reprisals by its conventional forces. — TNS Family of artists & legacy of ‘most talented’ Sunder Singh, 17 Son of famous fresco painter Gian Singh and brother of iconic GS Sohan Singh, he was martyred that fateful day 13 COMMEMORATES JALLIANWALA BAGH CENTENARY Vishav Bharti Tribune News Service Amritsar, April 7 Just before his death in the early 1950s, fresco painter Gian Singh ‘Naqqash’ handed over two elegantlyframed, stunningly sharp pencil sketches to his youngest son and told him to take care of the only “nishaani” of his departed son. One depicted a Sikh performing ‘ardaas’ and the other a fresco painting. The sketches are the only testimony to the great talent of Sunder Singh, who fell to bullets aged 17 at Jallianwala Bagh. These now hang from a wall at the family’s studio outside Golden Temple. Sunder Singh was the elder son of Gian Singh, the famous fresco painter who had worked at Darbar Sahib for 33 years. He had great hopes from his talented son, who had started drawing at a very young age. Sunder was very fond of attending mass gatherings. So, on the fateful day of April 13, 1919, Gian Singh took him as well as his younger son Jagat Singh along to Jallianwala Bagh, which was a stone’s throw away from their house. When the firing started, Gian Singh managed to escape but got separated from his sons. Jagat Singh, who later became a renowned ayurvedic expert, was found injured among the dead. Sunder wasn’t as lucky. His body was found with one bullet piercing through his neck and another, his stomach. Gian Singh’s grandson Surinder Singh, who in his eighties is struggling to save the family legacy, says the family had to take a loan of Rs 150 at heavy interest to perform Sunder’s last rites. Besides interest, as per the agreement, Gian Singh’s youngest son Sohan (the famous painter GS Sohan Singh) would port a pitcher of water morning and evening at the moneylender’s shop. Surinder Singh shows the sketch of his late uncle Sunder Singh, who fell to bullets aged 17 at Jallianwala Bagh. VISHAL KUMAR Later, the money swelled into a debt and was paid off when the British government gave a compensation of Rs 3,716 to the family for Sunder’s killing. But the bigger pain for Gian Singh was losing his talented Today’s issue is of 20 pages, including four-page Bathinda Tribune. son. Even in his last days, Gian Singh regretted why he had taken him along that fateful day. “My most talented son didn’t deserve to go that way,” he would often say. It was a few years after Sunder’s death that he again saw hope when he noticed Sohan Singh drawing sharp lines. He had started making beautiful sketches, just like his brother. He rose to become an iconic painter and was known as the last master of fresco in the Sikh school of painting. From generation to generation, Sunder’s tale has been passed on in this family of artists. A few years after his death, Gian Singh stumbled upon Sunder’s photograph in an international magazine. Everybody was surprised how it figured there. The mystery was solved when the family came to know that the photographer was documenting various styles of turbans and had clicked Sunder while he was playing at the stairs of Darbar Sahib. The two sketches and the photograph have become an important treasure for the family. Four decades back, Sohan Singh had immortalised that only photograph of Sunder with his magical hands: with a young, smiling Sunder in the centre and people falling to bullets around him, he created a sketch of Jallianwala Bagh."

A two-time minister, he was forced to resign in 2012 following embezzlement of funds from his discretionary quota. He was reinstated after an inquiry commission absolved him of all charges. Ranike is up against singer Mohd Sadiq of Congress, sitting MP Sadhu Singh, who is AAP’s candidate again, and Master Baldev Singh of Punjabi Ekta Party. Ranike is a Mazhbi Sikh, which is the dominant caste amongst Dalits in this reserved constituency. Party leaders say though he hails from Majha region, he was chosen because of his stature as a Dalit leader (he heads SAD’s Scheduled Caste wing). Faridkot is a crucial seat for Akali Dal: Burj Jawaharsinghwala, Bargari and Behbal Kalan — the three places that saw incidents of sacrilege in 2015 -— come under the constituency. It is also here, in the new epicentre of Panthic politics, that the party faced its worst showing in the 2017 Assembly polls and where it is finding the going tough to reconnect with its traditional vote base.

"question": "Are you insured?",
"answer": "The easiest answer to this is that chances are you have never planned a wedding before, or even an event of this size. Wedding planners have. It’s what they do for a living. They have knowledge and expertise that only someone who has planned a wedding before can possibly know. We have been there before and can help point you in the right direction and save you some time and money in the process. The more detailed answer is that wedding planners do so much more than you think they do. Budgeting, venue searching, vendor selection, contract reviews, creating a timeline that works for what you want but also what your vendors need, corralling your wedding party and sending them down the aisle, even things behind the scenes that you won’t know about and probably never will.

Wedding planners are also the point of contact for everyone on the day and can make decisions for you so you don’t have to because they know exactly how things should be and how you would want them. On top of all of that, you need to look at the time involved. Research shows that it takes an average of 250 hours to plan a wedding from start to finish. That’s a lot to add onto your everyday life, no wonder people get so stressed with wedding planning. Just with my wedding management package alone I spend an average of 35 hours on each couples wedding day. A wedding planner is there from start to finish. They help you with everything that has to do with your wedding and keep things organized and progressing as you plan. Depending on what you want they can be involved every step of the way or serve as more of a consultant throughout your planning process. A wedding consultant is just that. Someone that you can reach out to and ask questions of while you are planning your wedding. A wedding coordinator is someone who generally comes in closer to the date of your wedding to help finalize the details and run your entire day. But it does get a little tricky really defining it as every coordinator does things differently. Some only come in two weeks before, take the reins and run the show. Some come in a month before and get a little more involved with the last month of planning to make sure things are set up right for the day. Then there are coordinators like me who dread the term “day-of” or “month-of” because I firmly believe that someone cannot come in a couple weeks before you wedding and take over one of the biggest days of your life and have it run smoothly. On top of that, I wouldn’t want to because that would be entirely too stressful."

{
"question": "The profession of a wedding planner is always listed in the “Top 5 Most Stressful Jobs”, why make it more stressful?",
"answer": "Back on topic, coordinators who offer wedding management generally come in two months before your wedding to finalize all your details, create you timelines and then run the day."
},
{
"question": "What am I you ask?",
"answer": "Well that all depends on what you need. I serve as a planner for some couples and a coordinator for the rest, but I ALWAYS serve as a consultant for each and every one. Venue coordinators are wonderful and can really be beneficial to your wedding planning. But they only handle the items that are directly related to the venue. The will not create your wedding day timeline, confirm with your vendors the week before, run your rehearsal or keep everyone running on time throughout the day. A wedding planner works together with a venue coordinator to make sure everything is done right at the venue and then your wedding planner handles all the rest. Yep! The two packages listed under my wedding planning services are my most popular packages and what most of my couples end up choosing, but if after your consultation we determine you need something else I am more than willing to create a custom package based on your needs. Don’t forget to reach out to me to schedule your consultation ASAP. Nope. When a couple asks me for a referral for a certain type of vendor I ask determining questions to help me better understand what exactly it is they are looking for. It’s at that point that I know exactly the best vendor for them, send them a few options or I do a little research and find one. Even if it’s someone I have never worked with before, my job is to help you find what you need. No, that is not what I will no. I am a manager and I will do what I need to do to get things done, but as a manager I know how to get it done the right way and kindly. Wedding vendors work as a team with one goal in mind; a beautiful wedding for their clients. I will help in getting all of them on the same page and working together. I take all of their needs into consideration but I also look at what you need to happen and meet in the middle. As for your wedding party, I am there to guide and help them. Not only should the wedding be stress free for you, but it should be that way for all parties involved. Any and all – we cater to all types and religions. No. Your first consultation is free. It usually takes an hour and we will sit down and talk about where you are in the planning process and what I can do to help. If you need more than one consultation before booking with me, there will be a fee invoiced. Contact me now to set up your first consultation today! On the logistical side, I’m extremely organized and will help keep you on task. You also get access to me from the moment you book, even for just wedding management, to ask me questions and get advice as you plan. In the end, helping you helps me. You also get access to an online planning portal where you can keep everything having to deal with your wedding planning in one place. Lastly, my pricing includes my assistant that comes with me on the day and I also have a la carte services that can be added on, some are listed on my website some are not as it really depends on what is needed. But if I can help, I will. On a more personal side, I am transparent. I tell you how it is and I get things done. I like to drink whiskey and bake cookies. Halloween is my favorite holiday with Christmas as a very close second. I’m interesting and like to have fun with my clients and get to know them on a personal level. Also, I hate heels and avocados. It all depends on what you are looking for me to do. If you are looking for wedding management, then no less than two months, but I have worked with less. For full service I recommend one year minimum. Now that doesn’t mean to wait to book with me as my calendar fills up. I ALWAYS recommend booking me the moment you decide you want to work with me. That way your date is marked in my calendar and no one else can book me in your place. Plus, like I said before, the moment you book with me is the moment you have access to me for help as you plan your wedding. I started planning weddings in 2009 and am fully insured."

"question": "How do I use the self-check machines?",
"answer": "You will need your student card to use the self-issue machines. First you need to select a language. The screen then offers four buttons, Issue (borrowing), Return, Account Information and Renew. In order to borrow, choose Issue. You will then be prompted to ‘log in’ to the machine by holding your access card, face up, so that the beam reads across the barcode as shown in the on screen display. Once logged in, to borrow the books you need to place your books on the panel in the centre of the shelf. The machines can issue several books at a time if you place them in a small pile on the shelf. You can also use the machines to check your account information, how many books you currently have on loan, if any are overdue, if you have any outstanding holds or items to pick up. You can also renew your books using the machines by choosing to select individual titles via the tick boxes or renewing all. When returning books you do not need to scan your card, the machine will already know that the books are on loan to you. Select a language and the the Returns option. Items must be returned one at a time. The display will show whether you need to place the book on the returns trolley or to place books in the ‘exceptions’ bin (items to be sent to other libraries or ones that have been requested by other borrowers). Please make sure that you log out at the end of each session by pressing either the Done button!! If you do not log out then there is a possibility that the next person to use the machine may borrow their books on to your card."

{
"question": "How has the co-op job search process changed?",
"answer": "You will be able to view ALL co-op jobs and apply for ANY job for which you meet the eligibility requirements established by the employer. You may apply directly for any co-op job for which you are qualified. Since cross-college referrals are no longer required, your credentials will be immediately available to the employer. If you have successfully completed at least one Co-op experience, you are free to apply to additional co-op opportunities without the previously required meeting with your advisor. Advisors do remain available to assist you at your request with any aspect of your co-op search. In addition to a resume, you will need to complete a “skills profile” in order to apply for co-op positions. The skills profile allows you to highlight aspects of your abilities and experiences. Employers can search the skills profile to discover capabilities and interests that potentially make you a more attractive candidate for the position. In addition to applying directly to a Co-op position, you will have the option to make your profile and resume available in a database of co-op candidates for employers. If you choose to participate in this new service, employers can search the database and reach out to you if they have interest in you as a potential candidate, even if you didn’t apply for the position. We have introduced a new system capability to employers which allows them to extend automated offers through NUcareers. You will receive the same information about an offer as you would when receiving offers directly from an employer via text, email, or letter. The difference is that employers can now communicate co-op job offers via NUcareers. When employers choose to do this, you will receive an email prompting you to act on the offer through the system. You will have two business days to make a decision on the offer."
},
{
"question": "When will the new processes go into effect?",
"answer": "The changes will be effective starting in Fall 2018 for students who wish to go on co-op January 1, 2019 or later. First-time Co-op students may begin their job search once their co-op advisor has approved them to do so. Students who have already successfully completed a prior co-op assignment may begin applying for positions as soon as jobs are posted."
},
{
"question": "What do I need to do now to prepare for my co-op job search?",
"answer": "If you will be looking for your first co-op beginning in January 2019, don’t worry – everything will be covered in the co-op preparation course you will be enrolled in during the Fall term. Update your resume using the new resume building tool VMock. This new platform uses an algorithm based on current best practices and industry standards to provide specific feedback and an overall score to each version of your resume that you upload to the system. We recommend you follow the system suggestions and keep uploading your resume until you achieve the version you think best. At that point you may wish to share that version of your resume with your co-op coordinator for final polishing. Complete your required skills profile available on your NUcareers dashboard. The skills profile features a variety of questions/categories with pulldown menu choice responses. The profile allows you to highlight various elements of your background that employers can search on to help in both focusing on the job applicants of most interest to them and in identifying potential candidates who have opted into the co-op candidate database. Your Co-op coordinator will, of course, always be available to assist you with any aspect of these processes or any matter relating to your co-op job search."
},
{
"question": "How do I apply for co-op positions?",
"answer": "You will be able to search NUcareers for available positions using the same advanced search tools to which you have always had access. The default view from your dashboard allows you access to all the jobs for which you are eligible to apply. Application eligibility is determined by the employer based on their needs, requirements, and interests. The employer may also express preferences for certain types of candidates (e.g. students enrolled in specific academic programs) in the job description posting. You may “unclick” the default view, however, to see all posted positions. You can review all job descriptions but may not apply through the system for jobs for which you don’t meet the employer’s eligibility requirements. Once you apply, your application materials (i.e. skills profile, resume, plus any other required documents) are immediately available to the employer through the system. While we encourage you to be thoughtful and strategic about which jobs you apply for, there are no specific system restrictions on how many job applications you may submit, nor do your applications need to be approved by your coordinator prior to submission."
},
{
"question": "When can I start interviewing for co-op positions?",
"answer": "You may begin interviewing as soon as an employer invites you to do so. Employers schedule their recruiting activities throughout the semester, so you should be prepared to receive an invitation to interview from interested employers at any time after you have submitted your application."
},
{
"question": "What happens when an employer extends a co-op job offer to me?",
"answer": "Some employers will continue to extend offers the traditional way by contacting you directly via email or phone to make an offer with a decision timeline, and then await your response. We have introduced a new system feature which will now allow employers to extend their offers to you through the NUcareers system saving time and effort for everyone. Use of the new automated offer tool by employers, while encouraged, is still optional. Employers who opt to use this tool will post jobs, source candidates, and interview as they always have. When they are ready to extend offers, however, they will close their job openings, rank their candidates, enter the offer detail information including the specific salary offer and submit the information to NUcareers. Once an employer submits the information to the system you will immediately be able to see that you have received an offer on your dashboard. You will also receive an email informing you that you have an offer. Offers submitted by employers through NUcareers require that you respond with your decision within 2 business days after the email was sent. If you accept the offer, a record will be created, and you will be removed from any further consideration for other jobs. If you decline the offer, the system will automatically move to the second-choice candidate the employer identified. That person will then have 2 business days to decide. This will continue until the position is filled or there are no more candidates of interest. If you do not respond to the offer, then the system will assume you have declined and move on to the next candidate."
},
{
"question": "What happens if I have questions about an offer received through the automated process?",
"answer": "Reach out to the appropriate company contact to answer any questions about your offer. If you need any further assistance, contact your co-op coordinator."
},
{
"question": "What happens if I receive an offer late on a Friday and only have the weekend to consider it?",
"answer": "We’ve configured the system so that weekends and federal holidays are excluded from the 48-hour period you have to review and decide on offers submitted through the system."
},
{
"question": "What more information can I expect to see about the new features?",
"answer": "More information is available soon via this website and through our new chat application. The Help page features instructional videos and other helpful orientation and training content. We have also added 24/7 Northeastern University Help Desk support – available by phone at 617.373.4357 or at [email protected] – to assist you with any technical or access concerns."

|
[
{
"question": "What is cabotage?",
"answer": "| Stratos Jet Charters, Inc. In an era of private jet flights, the term “cabotage” may seem antiquated, but it is still a crucial legal concept. Cabotage refers to the transport of cargo or passengers from one destination to another, for a fee, within the same country. The term originated in France, and once meant domestic trade or transport along a coastline. It has since evolved to include any domestic rail, air, ship and road transport. In private aviation, the term applies to any type of aircraft that flies passengers by jet charter or hire from one point to another. While flying as a charter airplane, the aircraft must adhere to the rules and laws for private jet flights within that given country. These rules not only apply to specific operational requirements for the aircraft, but also to any passengers flying aboard the jet charter. U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) monitors and enforces cabotage. Charter flight operators must notify Border Protection of crew and passenger information for each leg of a flight in the U.S. Once CBP reviews the information, and if there are no cabotage violations, CBP will issue a “permit to proceed” for the next leg of the flight. That’s why it’s always a good idea to choose a trusted flight broker to ensure that the aircraft you charter adheres to all cabotage guidelines for travel in your respective country. For example, ARGUS- and Wyvern-rated aircraft operators who charter private jets and airplanes will adhere to cabotage rules for private flight charters within the United States."

[
{
"question": "+ Are Habitech homes quicker to build?",
"answer": "Yes. Because our homes are pre-fabricated and built from components that are flat-packed and delivered to site ready for assembly, construction time on site is typically heavily reduced."
},
{
"question": "+ How long is construction time?",
"answer": "We have an approach of building with smarter manufactured building components that are flat pack delivered and get a house from sub-floor to lock-up in a matter of weeks rather than months. Taking off at least 2 months construction time on site, in some cases, a lot more."
},
{
"question": "+ Can I get an estimate cost for my project?",
"answer": "Yes, but we need to understand your project, design brief, size, quality and budget expecation to make sure it qualifies. Click here to send us your project brief – the more info we have the better we can help you with."
},
{
"question": "+ How much does it cost to build a Habitech House?",
"answer": "Like any construction project, Habitech homes will vary in cost, depending on site conditions, the extent of external works and the quality of the fixtures and fitting you choose. Our buildings are the same cost as traditional construction, yet because they are quicker to build and super thermally efficient, they are both more cost effective during the building stage and keep heating and cooling costs to a minimum (in some cases totally eliminating your heating and cooling bills). To build a new Habitech house usually costs around $2,700- 3,000 per square meter (based on a completed new house in Melbourne’s inner suburbs). Habitech homes are bespoke designs, so each is different and as the details of each design progresses and decisions are made, costs become more accurate. Many regulatory steps and building site costs don’t vary, regardless of the scale of the job. This makes small projects relatively more expensive on a 'per square metre' basis. As a guide, we typically suggest $3,500-4,000 per square meter rate for extensions."
},
{
"question": "+ Can I buy your panels for my project?",
"answer": "Habitech isn’t a traditional building product company or a kit home provider, so we don’t sell our panels directly. Further, our panels are manufactured to each project’s specifications, so we don’t have off-the-shelf product. Instead we provide clients with full bespoke design services which includes the supply of our [own/ proprietary] wall panel system. There are some instances however, where we work with other designers in the early design stages to build homes with our panels. Please contact us if you’d like to understand more."
},
{
"question": "+ I'm a builder, can I use your panels for an upcoming project?",
"answer": "If your project is in the early design stage (i.e. before approved plan) please contact us to discuss possible collaboration. Unfortunately because our panels aren’t a retrofitting system, it’s not cost effective to collaborate after this stage. Habitech is expanding into new areas and are seeking new builders to partner with on upcoming projects. For future projects, please email [email protected]."
},
{
"question": "+ How does your pricing compare to conventional construction?",
"answer": "Our buildings are the same cost as high performance traditional construction, yet deliver much higher quality and faster outcomes. Our modular components typically make up 8-10% of complete construction costs, with site issues, the quality of fit-out elements and the extent of external works commonly having much larger cost impacts."
},
{
"question": "+ How much do your homes cost to run?",
"answer": "Our homes reduce heating and cooling needs by up to 80%. They’re some of the most highly insulated and best sealed buildings in Australia. Because our insulation is solid and integral to our panels, it will be installed properly and won’t sag over time. We produce super-insulated and super-sealed walls with every house shell constructed to almost Passive-Haus standards."
},
{
"question": "+ Can I book a meeting to discuss my project?",
"answer": "Sure! However, it is often best to give us a call or send an email with some details about your project. You could even fill in our 'new project' form here. This is so we are able to analyse your project and determine whether or not building a Habitech home is going to get you the best outcome."
},
{
"question": "+ Can I visit a Habitech House?",
"answer": "We periodically have Open Houses for projects near completion. These are a great opportunity to see how Habitech homes are built and speak with the builder, the owner and the Habitech architects. Subscribe to our newsletter or follow us on Facebook or Instagram be notified of our next Open House."
},
{
"question": "+ Can I build anywhere in Australia?",
"answer": "Yes you can. As our building components are flat-packed and can be transported by truck, distance is not an issue for us. As long as there is good communication between client and design teams, an efficient and cost-effective build process is definitely achievable. We are currently doing projects across Victoria and interstate."
},
{
"question": "+ What materials are used in your SIP wall panels?",
"answer": "While structurally insulated panels (SIPs) are often made using oriented strand boards (OSBs) that sandwich a layer of rigid foam plastic insulation inside, at Habitech, we use the superior performance of plantation grown Australian plywood for the interior faces of our wall panels. The foam core is made of expanded polystyrene (EPS). SIPs are custom-made in factories and require little time and manual labour to manufacture. The exterior face is made of Magnesium Oxide Board, providing great durability and strength."
},
{
"question": "+ Where are your panels manufactured?",
"answer": "Our panels are made in Melbourne. We keep a close eye on the manufacture and quality of our panels."
},
{
"question": "+ What are the differences between Habitech and other modular houses?",
"answer": "Our panels are more sustainable, with all necessary insulation, structure and cladding all built into the one panel. This also ensures minimal site wastage. Our panels are hand-liftable so there is greater flexibility in design, there is no need for large cranes or dimension restrictions due to their modular nature. Site access issues are also minimised. Apart from being extremely comfortable, cheap to operate and healthier, our homes are thermally amazing, often outperforming their original energy star ratings."
},
{
"question": "+ My site has limited access, is this a risk?",
"answer": "Habitech designs are great for sites with limited access. Because our wall panels are cut to size and then flat-packed to site, they can be easily transported. And where necessary, they’re hand lifted through existing buildings. This means that cranage is often not necessary making the process simple and affordable. Unlike many prefabricated homes, Habitech designs are not compromised by delivery issues."
},
{
"question": "+ What assurances are there that a Habitech home is high quality?",
"answer": "We also administer the building contract to ensure the builder builds to the required standard and doesn’t take shortcuts with lower quality materials through good communication and training in building with our system."
},
{
"question": "+ How good is the air quality and temperature in a habitech home?",
"answer": "Energy efficient heat recovery systems are used in our homes to provide a healthy ventilation of fresh air without wasting heat energy. In addition to this, we design natural cross-ventilation into all our projects for control by inhabitants meaning happier and healthier clients. Our high-performing fabric ensures extreme temperatures have minimal effect. The building envelope will respond to buffer any variations, with a balanced solution of thermal mass and insulation."

[
{
"question": "How secure is Cobalt Cloud?",
"answer": "Cobalt Cloud supports https and has built-in server-side encryption. The cloud server automatically generates a 4096-bit strong private/public key-pair for each user. Private keys are encrypted with the login password of users, so nobody can get at your data if you are not logged into the server."
},
{
"question": "Can I use Cobalt Cloud as a backup solution?",
"answer": "No, Cobalt Cloud is not a backup solution. Changes you make in one place are synchronised to other places which means that if you accidentally remove or overwrite a file on your local system, Cobalt Cloud will remove it from the server. The 'previous files' and 'undelete' functionality of Cobalt Cloud is merely meant as a convenience and should never be relied upon as a backup function."
},
{
"question": "Does Cobalt Cloud do file de-duplication?",
"answer": "No, we maintain versions of files as they are replaced and you may revert to older versions at any time."
},
{
"question": "Can I share copyrighted material?",
"answer": "You should only use shareable links for files that you have the legal right to share with others (e.g. documents, photos, software, music, and videos that you personally created). You do not have the right to share files unless you own the copyright in them or have been given permission by the copyright owner to share them. A conflict may be caused by two or more users editing the same file(s) at the same time or while 'on the road' before the files are synced. We do not merge changes to files. So you will get two files, the one that was synced to the server first and the one you had locally modified in the same time. You can compare the file changes by hand and delete the local file once you're sure you did not lose data. If you have not enabled password recovery in your user profile (basic encryption module) you have a serious problem! Although the administrator can reset a forgotten user password, without the basic encryption module running there is no way to gain access your files, as your original password is the encryption key. Therefore, it is important that you keep a record of your password in a safe place!"

},
{
"question": "How is Value Mobile billed?",
"answer": "Value Mobile accounts are billed every 25th of the month for the upcoming month. Invoices are due on the 1st of each month and the credit or debit card stored on file is charged for the immediate month’s charges as well as any excess charges from the previous month. Autopay is a convenient payment service for the Value Mobile monthly plans. The same credit or debit card used upon activation is used for the subsequent monthly billing of the services. No. Unfortunately, only one credit/debit card can be associated to each Value Mobile account."
},
{
"question": "Do I get a refund or credit for unused days?",
"answer": "For Value Mobile, the 24th of the month is the cut-off date for both deactivation and reactivation requests to take effect. For example, a deactivation or reactivation request made on the 10th of the month will take effect on the 24th day of that month. A deactivation or reactivation request made on the 26th of the month will take effect on the 24th day of the following month. Since the next month’s invoice is generated on the 25th, a subscriber with deactivation request made after the 24th of the month WILL STILL BE LIABLE to pay the invoice generated on the 25th which is due on the 1st of the following month.

{
"question": "Is the site accessible for guests with limited mobility?",
"answer": "All rainforest walks are all completed at a leisurely pace and there are no stairs to climb. The walks occur over compressed gravel and wooden boardwalks that are accessible to wheelchair users, weather dependent. During periods of heavy rains (frequent on Southeast Alaska) the trail can be difficult to navigate in a wheelchair. Wheelchairs are not provided on site, however with at least 24 hours’ notice we can provide an able-bodied person to push/assist anyone in a wheelchair. Most of the trail system is flat however, there are short (30 yards) sections with moderate inclines and declines. Wildlife sightings are frequent. We offer the only drive up bear viewing location in Southeast Alaska."

{
"question": "What about your bear tour?",
"answer": "Our bear tour operates from mid-July into September, and are small intimate groups guided by an experienced naturalist. You will enjoy wildlife and photographic opportunities from elevated bridges, boardwalks, and viewing decks, with approximately 60 minutes of wildlife viewing time. Chances of seeing Black Bear are very good. Food is not permitted on the walking trails. Comfortable water-resistant walking shoes, layered clothing and a waterproof outer layer are recommended."

|
[
{
"question": "First, it presumes that Jesus Christ is currently “absent.” Is he?",
"answer": "“Lo, I am absent always…” No, that’s not what he said—“…I am with you always, even to the end of the age” (Matt. 28:20–NASB). Jesus spoke those words to his followers after his resurrection and shortly before his ascension. Remember that in the previous verse he had told them to go all over the place and teach people about him, and so he was assuring them that he’d go too."
},
{
"question": "But how was he planning to be so diversified?",
"answer": "And the answer is…By way of the gift of holy spirit that he subsequently poured out to each person who believed in him as Lord from the Day of Pentecost onward (Acts 2:33). The “spirit of Jesus” (Acts 16:7 properly rendered) is figuratively called, “Christ in you” (Col. 1:27), and these are among a number of synonymous biblical terms for the gift of holy spirit that makes one a Christian. It is the “incorruptible seed” of Christ—the son of God (1 Pet. 1:23–KJV) by which one is born again as a son of God. The Church Epistles, primarily Ephesians and Colossians, identify Jesus Christ as the Head of the Church, which is his Body."
},
{
"question": "Can a living body have an “absent” head?",
"answer": "Nope. So that would make the Head present. OK, so if you are a Christian, a member of the Body of Christ, Jesus is not “absent” from you."
},
{
"question": "How so?",
"answer": "Because from Genesis 3:15 through Revelation 22:21, the grand subject of Scripture is The Man Who is The Plan Because The First Man Ran. It’s all about The Man (the “Last Adam”) who was the only possible solution to the two-fold problem of sin and death caused by the First Adam. Jesus Christ is the “golden thread” woven throughout the Royal Tapestry of Truth. But—the written Word is the means to the end—knowing, loving, and being intimate with the living Lord. The Word never calls us to “fellowship” (koinonia) with itself, but it does call us to have such personal closeness with the Lord Jesus (1 John 1:3), whose goal is to help us become like him. He longs to mentor each of us in the art of faith, that is, trusting the same God he trusted. Jesus is the means by which the logos of God, the contingency plan of salvation that God had in mind when He created Adam, was “fleshed out” (John 1:14). As a human being who was tempted in all ways like we are, this Man has walked the full length of the valley of human need. He is touched by the feeling of our infirmities, and fully able to help us in whatever way we need him to. God is spirit, and Satan doesn’t have to “blind” people to something that is invisible. But he does all he can to blind people to the glorious image of God, Jesus. His chief goal is to stop people from believing in Jesus as Lord and being saved, and to that end he offers a wide variety of lies about Jesus, which gazillions of well-meaning people believe. But Satan obviously cannot turn everyone away from the truth that Jesus is the Savior, and millions do believe and are saved. That in no way dissuades him from his main goal: distorting as much of the truth about Jesus Christ as he possibly can. The Enemy has succeeded in obscuring key truth about Jesus for most Christians by way of the spurious idea that Jesus is God in human flesh, a God-man who is 100% God and 100% man. At best, this is 200% puzzling. At least, it negates one’s genuine identification with him as a man who had to trust God and live by faith, just as we are asked to do. At worst, it is idolatry."
},
{
"question": "But what about those Christians who do not buy into the teaching that Jesus is God?",
"answer": "[to best understand who Jesus is see our book: “One God & One Lord: Reconsidering the Cornerstone of the Christian Faith“]. Satan’s goal is still the same—to keep them in the dark about whatever truth about Jesus would enhance their lives."
},
{
"question": "Oh, you mean like the truth that he is with us every second and doing all he can to help us know him, love him, and serve him?",
"answer": "The statement that “the Word takes the place of the absent Christ” is in large part a backlash to a Jesus-is-not-God-so-we-gotta-keep-him-quiet-and-seated paranoia, and too often those who believe it find themselves with no relationship to their Savior other than having to jam his name into the ending of each prayer so as to get it through the ceiling. Corollary to the misconception that Jesus is currently “absent” is the misnomer of referring to what Scripture calls the “appearing” of Christ as his “return.” If Jesus is “absent,” then we are awaiting his “return.” But if he is present (though invisible), we are awaiting his “appearing.” If you study this, you will see that the several Greek words used are all visual in their connotation. Some may say that this is a matter of “semantics,” but God did choose words as His primary medium of communication, and their meanings are critical for our understanding and applying what He says to us. In conclusion, nothing or no one can take the place of Jesus Christ, The Man, the Mediator, the Lord, the Savior, the Lover of our souls, our Mentor in fruitful living, the one who is all that the Word of God says he is. Scripture makes it clear that Jesus is God’s favorite subject, and we do both a grave disservice if we do not elevate the Lord Jesus to the place where God has placed him. John 5:23 says that whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father. So let us diligently hide the written Word in our hearts and allow the Lord Jesus to come off its pages and into our lives as a present reality. Amen."

"question": "What do you learn at Swaraj University?",
"answer": "The program of study at Swaraj University is based on the principles of self-designed learning, which means that learners will direct their learning, driven by their passions, in a nurturing and conducive environment. In addition to this, learners will have the choice to participate in workshops featuring basic entrepreneurial skills and other skills such as: communication, facilitation and group dialogue, computers, finance, marketing, cooking, sewing, farming, yoga, film-making, web design and blogging, desktop publishing, writing of proposals and business plans, documentation, working English, etc."
},
{
"question": "How will the learner know what to do with their time?",
"answer": "Being in the system, most of us start becoming so dependent on being fed structured knowledge and are accustomed to being told what to do with our time that we have difficulty remembering what it is we really want to do. So, when learners have unstructured time at their disposal it initially becomes difficult to deal with. However, it provides an ideal space for reflection, knowing oneself and one’s passions, understanding the world around and to unlearn their dependence on external sources of knowledge. It is through this process that the learner engages in his self-directed learning path and becomes cognizant of his responsibility for his own actions. After that, there is never any question of what to do with his time. The beauty of being a learner at Swaraj University is that you are not alone in this unlearning process; you have the opportunity to co-create your self-directed learning path with your fellow learners who too are walking the same path."
},
{
"question": "And how can they show others what they have learnt?",
"answer": "When we pursue activities we are truly interested in, we are the best judges of our accomplishments, because we set the goals, we know what we hope to achieve, and what results we consider acceptable. When we are becoming proficient in some area, we can always turn to the examples of those already accomplished in our chosen pursuit to determine what an acceptable level of performance is. In this light we learn to self–evaluate and do honest reflection. At Swaraj University, learners get the opportunity to build a personal feedback council and have supportive peer cohorts who are available to help the learner reflect on and improve his work in the pursuit of excellence. Learners own confidence in themselves and their depth of knowledge in a particular subject driven by their passions is what will clearly show to others what they have learnt. In addition to that, we encourage that each learner build his own portfolio that will contain self-reflections, recommendations, published work, photographs, etc. Through this portfolio learners can show others what they have learnt."
},
{
"question": "Who are going to be the mentors and how good are they with their subjects?",
"answer": "At Swaraj University intimate one-on-one relationships with ustaads (mentors) is at the heart of the program. Each and every ustaad linked to our program has one thing in common – an infectious passion for his work. Ustaads are cutting edge leaders in their respective fields, who are able to engage with youth in a true spirit of co-learning and friendship. To learn more about our ustaads please click here. Then, this program is for you. To be part of this program no formal educational qualifications are required. School walkouts are welcome."
},
{
"question": "Where will the learners stay?",
"answer": "A big part of our program consists of group gatherings and apprenticeships. During gatherings, which are typically 2- 4 weeks long, the whole group will come together and stay at our campus with in Udaipur, Rajasthan. To know more click here. The second part of the program consists of apprenticeships. Here learners choose their field of interest and are placed under ustaads for a duration of 1-2 months. During this time learners stay at their ustaad’s location, which can be anywhere in Rajasthan, Gujarat, Maharashtra, Delhi and Madhya Pradesh."
},
{
"question": "What are the expected expenses for a learner at Swaraj University?",
"answer": "Today we see commoditization of everything around us, including education. This is wiping out ideas and practices of deep learning, self-organizing learning communities and vibrant learning ecosystems. Hence, at Swaraj University we believe that learning should be free. This will not only help revive other practices of learning but will also give us the opportunity to re-examine our relationship with money. Through this we can explore money in a newer and holistic manner and experiment with the spirit of gifting, sharing, trust and abundance. However, to run this program we will incur expenses for lodging, boarding and travelling for each learner. For those whom it is possible we ask a contribution against the above mentioned expenses. And if you can, your additional contributions will help to support other peoples' participation. However, if you cannot afford this for any reason, then please let us know and we will arrange for part or full scholarship for you."
},
{
"question": "Will I get a recognized degree or diploma after this course?",
"answer": "No. We will not issue any degree or diploma for this course. You will receive a Letter of Completion at the end of your learning program. During this program you will also develop your portfolio which will showcase your depth of knowledge in your work area which will be supported by Letters of Recognition from your mentors and organizations where you have done your internships. It is our belief that Letters of Recognition carry more weight than a degree / diploma. In addition, Swaraj University will introduce you to an impressive list of organizations who are willing to accept individuals in their organizations based on their portfolio work. We are currently building a database of organisations and universities that accept people not based on their degrees but rather on their experience and portfolios. We are calling it 'Healing Ourselves from the Diploma Disease'."
},
{
"question": "After completing my study at Swaraj University will I get admission in other colleges for further studies?",
"answer": "We have found that there are several reputable online, open and foreign universities that recognize portfolio work. With a strong portfolio and a sound knowledge in your area of work it is now possible to get admission in such colleges."
},
{
"question": "How do I enroll in Swaraj University?",
"answer": "Our admission process usually takes place during the months of May to July. During that time we set up a form online which you are expected to fill out and send it across to us. Upon receipt of this form we have a brief talk with you to understand your interest and passions and how it matches with the vision of this program. After that you will be invited to come for a 3 day orientation meet sometime during those months. If everything goes well then you are invited to attend a 5 day long selection round where you get a proper understanding of the idea behind the program and together we can decide if the program can work for you. Then the adventure begins!"

"question": "What’s the Difference Between Real Wood and Faux Wood Blinds?",
"answer": "There are a number of methods of effective methods for cleaning window treatments, depending on the type of material they’re made from. Some require dusting or spot cleaning, and occasionally vacuuming. Wood can be easily damaged by soap and water, while on the other hand, many materials will benefit from soap and water without any issues. Each type of material requires a unique approach and level of care. Please contact us today to take advantage of our professional blind, shades, or shutter cleaning service or to learn more about the best method for cleaning your window coverings. Most often, we recommend shutters as the leading choice for specially designed windows because they can be customized to fit any windows. Additionally, their sophisticated appearance compliments most specialty window styles. With our years of knowledge and experience, we can help you choose the ideal shutters for any home and windows. In the Hampstead, NC area, it’s often difficult to maintain a cool, comfortable temperature in your home without spending a fortune on energy costs. At Carolina Window Coverings, we offer a wide variety of window treatments that can help you significantly lower the amount of energy needed to keep your home cool. UV shades are the perfect solution for minimizing energy consumption, due to the face that they reduce the amount of visible, infrared, and ultraviolet light that enters your home, keeping it cool and comfortable without the expensive energy bills. Natural, or real, wood blinds are made from basswood, which is a great choice due to it being highly durable, but also very lightweight. Cedar pines are also commonly used, which contain natural knots and grains that can be very visually appealing. Wooden blinds need to specific care in order for them to maintain their beauty and integrity, but often come with a 4-10 year warranty. Faux wood blinds have the appearance and feel of natural wood, but are easier to maintain and more durable. Faux wood blinds are reinforced with an aluminum core to provide extra strength, and are more affordable than real wood."

"question": "How is information gathered in Collaborative Practice?",
"answer": "The clients do not engage in expensive legal procedures to obtain information. The clients and their Collaborative Attorneys agree from the beginning that they will share all relevant information and documents voluntarily and in a timely fashion. Hiding documents or unnecessary delays are not permitted. If a party is not acting in good faith and \"hides the ball\", it is the duty of his or her Collaborative Attorney to work with the client to change his or her behavior and to withdraw if the behavior continues. If a party continues to refuse to act in good faith, the Collaborative Process can be terminated. The clients decide what type of additional assistance is needed in the information gathering process and jointly engage consultants. For example, the clients can jointly hire a Neutral Financial Professional to assist them in gathering and organizing financial information and to create projections for future financial possibilities. Or, they can jointly engage an appraiser to provide them with an opinion regarding the value of a particular asset."

},
{
"question": "Does SFL support political parties, candidates, or legislation?",
"answer": "No. SFL is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. As such, we do not endorse any political party, political candidates, or legislation."
},
{
"question": "Is SFL a membership-based organization?",
"answer": "No. SFL does not utilize a strict membership model where people sign up for SFL each year. Nor does SFL have chapters or mini-SFL’s on campus that take orders from a national office. Our model is more akin to a coalition. SFL is an external organization that provides tangible support for pro-liberty student organizations. We work with a diversity of student organizations across the many ideological positions within the philosophy of liberty. These include the campus Students For Liberty groups, College Libertarians, small “l” libertarian associations, economics clubs, Objectivist societies, Austrian Economics reading groups, Students for Individual Liberty clubs, and any other name that students dedicated to liberty adopt. I am a college student."
},
{
"question": "How can I get involved with SFL?",
"answer": "Since SFL is not a membership-based organization, the answer to this question is not as simple as saying “pay your dues.” There are various ways that you can get involved. Start a student organization dedicated to liberty. There is no greater way to support the cause of liberty on campus than starting a student organization. Check out our comprehensive Leading Liberty Handbook for advice on how to start and run a successful student group and get in touch with a leader in your region so we can better assist you with your local needs. Access SFL’s resources. SFL provides many resources for college students ranging from our conferences, to our free books, to the Virtual Speakers Network.

{
"question": "Does SFL work with other nonprofit organizations?",
"answer": "Yes! SFL works with a variety of other nonprofit organizations dedicated to promoting liberty. These include student-directed support organizations, think tanks, student associations, academic institutions, and many others."
},
{
"question": "What makes SFL different from other student political organizations?",
"answer": "There are many strategies for promoting liberty, each of which is effective and important in the overall pro-liberty movement. Recognizing that there is no single strategy to support students and promote liberty, SFL is dedicated to carving out a niche in the cause of liberty that complements the work of other organizations and utilizes our comparative advantage. What makes SFL truly unique is our focus on effectively promoting the philosophy of liberty on campus. Where other organizations take students away from campus for programs, SFL brings the cause of liberty to campus to strengthen the connection between academia and liberty. Where other organizations seek to change policy and have students complete voter registration forms, SFL is focused on the ideas behind public policy, the philosophy of liberty, and seeks to spread the message of liberty above all else. Where other organizations represent very specific philosophies to justify liberty, SFL seeks to serve as a bridge between these different philosophies. We want members of different political parties to discuss with each other what a public policy of liberty means. We want Objectivists and Austrian Economists to work together on strategies for promoting free markets. We support a diversity of organizations and philosophies because we believe that what is most important is to bring the range of advocates of liberty together and focus on the 90% we have in common rather than the 10% that we disagree on. Where other organizations support individual students, SFL goes a step further to support student organizations. We don’t believe that we need to wait 10 years for students to become leaders of liberty. We want students to become leaders today and so provide the resources and training for them to do just that. Where other organizations are geographically restricted, SFL is at the forefront of developing an international student movement for liberty that transcends political boundaries."
},
{
"question": "How does SFL produce value?",
"answer": "SFL, draws its theory of change model from Hayek’s theory of production, applying the same principles to the educational setting to produce change in both academia and society. The student body acts as the starting point for all campus efforts. From the student body, we can both identify those who believe in liberty and begin persuading others to believe in liberty. The second level of the structure of production involves identifying and training leaders of liberty on campus. SFL provides resources for campus leaders to become more effective in their organizing and holds leaders accountable to a high level of professionalism and productivity in their training. The final product is alumni who support liberty both on campus and in the real world. SFL believes that the best way to create alumni dedicated to liberty is to get them involved in the cause of liberty while they are in school. Most people who work for the cause of liberty as a career have some college experience that exposed them to the ideas of liberty. Many of them were student leaders on campus and gained experience organizing others or speaking out on behalf of liberty when they were young. Even if they do not make their career fighting for liberty, supporters of liberty most often trace their dedication to some college experience. SFL exists to provide the opportunity for people to have that experience. Student groups support all levels of the structure of production. They are the fastest and easiest way to establish a presence of liberty on campus that can reach out to other students easily. Students can become campus leaders through groups. And organizations keep alumni connected to the cause on campus. Developing established groups is crucial to long-term success in reaching students."
},
{
"question": "How can I help?",
"answer": "Provide in-kind donations. If you would like to donate office space, office supplies, books, or other resources that SFL can use to promote liberty, please email [email protected] with a description of what you would like to donate. Help build SFL’s connections.

"answer": "The SmartBelt has an on/off switch located on the bottom of the buckle. The SmartBelt uses vibrations to send alerts from your supervisor. The reason for the alerts will vary, depending on how your organization chooses to configure this feature."
},
{
"question": "Does the SmartBelt have an option to notify my supervisor if there is a problem?",
"answer": "The Alert button located on the bottom of the SmartBelt buckle can be used to notify your supervisor if there is a problem. When you press the button, the SmartBelt immediately sends a notification to your supervisor through the Modjoul Mobile App. The SmartBelt will send a vibration when the notification has been received by the supervisor. The SmartBelt must be connected to WiFi for this feature to work."
},
{
"question": "How often do I need to charge my Modjoul SmartBelt?",
"answer": "Depending on individual use, the Modjoul SmartBelt can have a battery life up to 12 hours and would require charging every day. We recommend charging the SmartBelt at the end of every shift to ensure it is ready for use the next day."
},
{
"question": "Does the scorecard display data in real-time?",
"answer": "The SmartBelt sends data to the cloud every five minutes when it is connected to WiFi. The framework requires a few minutes to orchestrate, classify, calculate, classify and show the data on the scorecard. Each sensor has a degree of accuracy in its measurement. The scorecard should be considered directionally correct and not absolute. The reports can be customized for the employee, supervisor and the company. The hierarchy is that the company determines which metrics or calculations are shown, then the supervisor and then the employee. The supervisor and employee can then choose to see the metrics or not see the metric."
},
{
"question": "Are the sensors always working?",
"answer": "When the SmartBelt is on, the sensors in the SmartBelt are recording information. The only time the sensors are not working is when the SmartBelt is off. The SmartBelt can be turned off at any time by the employee by sliding the on/off switch."
},
{
"question": "When do the sensors send data?",
"answer": "The sensors capture data all the time except when the device is sending data to the cloud. The capture to send rate is five minutes of data capture and 30 seconds to send the data."
},
{
"question": "How can I tell if a sensor is working?",
"answer": "When the SmartBelt is turned on, it runs a self-diagnostic to determine if the SmartBelt’s sensors are working correctly. On the mobile application, it will show the result of the diagnostics. If a sensor is not working, it will not show green. The other sensors on the SmartBelt will be working and sending data."
},
{
"question": "Can I turn off a sensor?",
"answer": "The one sensor on the SmartBelt that can be turned off is the GPS sensor. The sensor can be turned off in the administration screen on your dashboard. Turning off the sensor will stop the sensor from collecting data. The warranty on the SmartBelt is six months. Modjoul devices are covered by a six month limited warranty policy. This policy only applies to devices purchased directly from Modjoul or authorized third-party resellers. Normal depletion of consumable parts including batteries, SmartBelt material, electronics or the buckle are excluded from this limited warranty unless a failure has occurred due to defect in materials or workmanship. Damages resulting from intentional or unintentional abuse, accidents, modifications, unauthorized repairs or other causes are not considered defects in materials or workmanship.

},
{
"question": "How do I go back and review an accident?",
"answer": "The software allows the owner to go back in time to review the data leading up to and following an incident. The owner will need to know the approximate time that the accident happens to capture the event. This is done on the black box screen."
},
{
"question": "Why does it capture time before and after the accident or event?",
"answer": "To help prevent future incidents from occurring, the software allows a company to review the events leading to and immediately after an incident. Knowing the environmental factors contributing to the incident can help companies make improvements for preventative purposes. To contact customer service, please submit a ticket through our help desk or call (864) 722-9760 to speak with one of customer service team members."

{
"question": "What can I expect during the lash lift procedure?",
"answer": "The procedure is totally painless and very relaxing. Your eyes will be closed for the entire treatment and although it may feel a little strange being unable to open your eyes for this time, it offers you a chance to relax during the treatment, so let all your cares and worries melt away. The processing times may vary slightly depending on eyelash hair types. The procedure can take anywhere from about 45-60mins. Maybe a little longer if you decide to have your eyelashes tinted which will enhance the effect of your lash perm. No, the procedure is completely safe! The product is cream based and will not run into the eyes. The only thing that may leave a slight tingle is the tint."
},
{
"question": "Can I wear makeup after my lash perm?",
"answer": "Yes, but please leave your lashes untouched for at least 24 hours after your treatment. You may find that there is no need for mascara anyway, but if you wish to make your lashes even fuller, after 24 hours non-waterproof mascara is recommended as the removal of waterproof mascaras can be harsh on the lashes and weaken the lift."
},
{
"question": "When should I come back for my maintenance procedure?",
"answer": "A lash perm will begin to naturally drop after about 2 months and your lashes will be back to their natural look. You can repeat the treatment after a minimum of one month if you feel you need to, or you can wait until they are back to their natural state. I do recommend that you re-lift your lashes every 4-6 weeks to maintain the Lash Perm."

"question": "What is the Montréal Carbon Pledge?",
"answer": "The Pledge was launched on 25 September 2014 at PRI in Person in Montréal, and is supported by the Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI) and the United Nations Environment Programme Finance Initiative (UNEP FI). Overseen by the PRI, it aims to attract commitment from portfolios totalling US$3 trillion in time for the United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP 21) in December 2015 in Paris."
},
{
"question": "Who is the pledge open to?",
"answer": "The pledge is open to all asset owners and investment managers – you do not need to be a PRI signatory. There are already over thirty signatories to the pledge from North America, Europe and Australia. These include ERAFP, PGGM Investments, Batirente and CalPERS. (For a full list see the Signatories page)."
},
{
"question": "What is a portfolio carbon footprint?",
"answer": "A portfolio’s carbon footprint is the sum of a proportional amount of each portfolio company’s emissions (proportional to the amount of stock held in the portfolio). A carbon footprint is a useful quantitative tool that can inform the creation and implementation of a broader climate change strategy."
},
{
"question": "What should I measure, and how often?",
"answer": "To meet the requirements of the Montréal Carbon Pledge, you must annually measure the carbon footprint of an equities portfolio, or portion thereof. We also consider a carbon footprint of other asset classes, including private equity."
},
{
"question": "How should I disclose my carbon footprint?",
"answer": "Disclosure must be through your website, annual report, sustainability report, responsible investment report or other publicly visible client/beneficiary reporting channel. Investors who have already measured the carbon footprint of portfolios say that doing so can: improve their understanding of the portfolio risks and opportunities that climate change presents; give them answers to stakeholder questions on climate change; allow them to publicly demonstrate commitment to tackling climate change. (See more detailed notes here)."
},
{
"question": "any recommended by the PRI?",
"answer": "Some providers are listed on the Resources page. The PRI does not endorse these providers and we strongly recommend investors conduct their own due diligence. (See more detailed notes here)."
},
{
"question": "What do I need to tell the PRI?",
"answer": "When you sign the pledge, tell us your organisation name and total assets under management, along with an email address. We also need to know the value of the assets under management that you will measure the carbon footprint of – if you do not know this when you sign the pledge, please tick “to be determined” and let us know by 1 September. We do not require any holdings data. No – there is no charge for signing the pledge. However, if you decide to use a service provider to measure your carbon footprint, this may incur a cost."
},
{
"question": "If I measure a carbon footprint, do I have to divest?",
"answer": "Measuring the portfolio’s carbon footprint simply helps you understand your emissions: if and how that information is acted on varies from one investor to another. Options include: continuing to monitor emissions regularly to ensure these are tracked and understood, engaging with companies on emissions disclosure and/or management, reducing exposure to carbon-intense holdings, investing in low-carbon solutions, and integrating environmental analysis into mainstream investment processes. Signing the Montreal Carbon Pledge is simply a commitment to measure and disclose the carbon footprint – it does not compel any further action, although the PRI encourages Pledge signatories to review the carbon footprint they produce and consider what approach might be most appropriate for them."
},
{
"question": "How does the Montréal Carbon Pledge relate to the Portfolio Decarbonization Coalition?",
"answer": "The Portfolio Decarbonization Coalition (PDC) is a multi-stakeholder initiative that will drive GHG emissions reductions by mobilising a critical mass of institutional investors committed to gradually decarbonising their portfolios. PDC’s disclosure target: Between September 2014 and COP21 the PDC will help build a community of institutional investors measuring and disclosing the carbon footprint of a total of at least US$500 billion of assets under management. The delivery mechanism for this target is the Montreal Pledge of the Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI). PDC’s decarbonisation target: Between September 2014 and COP21 the second goal is to assemble a coalition of investors who in aggregate will commit to decarbonizing at least US$100 billion in institutional investment across asset classes. Investors can sign the Montréal Carbon Pledge without joining The Portfolio Decarbonization Coalition, or can join both initiatives."

"question": "Can I use iClould to sync Grafio Documents between my devices?",
"answer": "Grafio does not support iCloud yet. We have to change our database in order to support iCloud. We have already started work on this new Database and once it is finished we are going to add iCloud as well. I bought the full version of Grafio and i cannot see the files from the lite version. Each app is restricted to it’s folder and Grafio is a separate app from Grafio Lite. The only way for now is for you to send email to yourself with the documents you want to transfer between the two apps. The email will contain .idd file (Grafio Document) which you can open with Grafio from your email. You can also use Dropbox to export from the lite and import in the full version."
},
{
"question": "How can i export a diagram out of Grafio?",
"answer": "Grafio can export your diagram as an image in your iPad gallery, Air Print it, upload it to box.net or send email with image and .idd file (idesk document)."
},
{
"question": "Can I make a presentation using Grafio and External Projector, Screen or TV ?",
"answer": "Absolutely! Grafio is meant to be used as a diagram editor and presentational tool. All you need is to plug a VGA connector to your iPad and a VGA icon will show up on the toolbar, when clicked it sends output to the external video device of your choice. The output will show only your canvas (no buttons and toolbars) so it looks very professional. You can use it in business meetings, lectures, etc. I can’t make connections between shapes. -Make sure you are drawing a straight line not curved or angular. -Make sure the line is starting and then ending inside the path of closed shapes. This are the only rules you have to follow, no there are no problems with the connection or at least not that we know of. So it should work like a charm. Watch this video tutorial on connections if you haven’t already."

"question": "You know Uber, right?",
"answer": "Well we’re like uber. On Uber you make money from your 2 key resources: time + car. On airhosta instead of a car + time, your resources are time + experience in running an Airbnb or Short Term Rental. So as a marketplace we connect your experience, your availability and your location with Airbnb and Short Term Rental owners who need service providers. If you haven’t already – check out our Explainer Video which tells you more about how airhosta works and how you can use us. We provide 2 ways that you connect with Airbnb hosts and Vacation rental owners. 1. You can either search or we can notify you of opportunities when an owner is looking via a ‘proposal request' (think of it like a job) for Airbnb related services in your area. You can then choose if you want to put a proposal in for the job. 2. We’re also about to release a new feature which means that owners can also reach you directly via an awesome profile in our Find Airbnb and Vacation Rental Service providers directory (wait until you see it!)."
},
{
"question": "How do I join the service provider community?",
"answer": "It’s easy. Just go to I'm a Service Provider and complete the contact form on the right side of the page and we'll get the ball rolling! Believe it or not (and we hope you believe us!) – it’s free. There are no catches, no small print, and you can close your account any time."
},
{
"question": "So you are probably thinking...how do we make money?",
"answer": "Well we’re an early stage startup. So we aren’t making any money - call it karma. There’s no point us charging you for something that service providers (and owners) haven’t fully experienced yet. So we want as many service providers and owners to use us, see the value in what we are doing and then work out how much we charge later on. Plus…by getting lots of users on airhosta, we can quickly work out what’s working, not working (and fix it quickly) to make airhosta an amazing experience."
},
{
"question": "I’ve joined the service provider community, but I can’t find any opportunities to connect with owners?",
"answer": "We launched in January, 2017 – and with any new startup it takes a minimum of 6-12 months to start building up a baseline of demand (‘owners’) and supply (‘service providers’)."
},
{
"question": "But the benefit to you of joining us early?",
"answer": "You get free access to airhosta until we decide to move towards charging (which is a while away yet). Plus you get the opportunity for free branding and marketing of your business on airhosta to owners all around the world. So you have nothing to lose!"
},
{
"question": "Do you let me know if owners are looking for me?",
"answer": "•\tIf an owner lists a proposal request, and you’ve set your saved search criteria – we’ll email you to alert you. Note – this feature is currently being re-developed, and is scheduled for April, 2017. •\tIf an owner decides they want to search and hire directly, they can do this on airhosta by shortlisting you directly via your profile. We let you know when an owner has done this and provide their contact details, so you can progress the opportunity further. Firstly, we are sorry to hear that. We are a marketplace that connects Airbnb and Vacation Rental owners with service providers. So we don’t vet the owners using us and any arrangement you enter are directly with that individual or organisation in line with our terms and conditions. So in the first instance you should try and resolve the issue directly with the owner. I’m a service provider but I actually need to hire other service providers to help me with my Airbnb / Vacation Rentals services business."
},
{
"question": "Can I use airhosta to find other service providers?",
"answer": "Absolutely. We’re finding that lots of service providers are using us to build up their own workforce of service providers to help them grow their own business and services. We’re fine with that. In fact for service providers that are interested in providing their services to compliment other service providers - we provide a special designation - 'We also provide B2B services'. That way you easily find other service providers who are interested in working with you."
},
{
"question": "I’ve got an idea on how you can improve – how do I let you know?",
"answer": "We LOVE new ideas on how we can improve. For us to be a marketplace that service providers and owners keep using, we have to be relevant and provide great experiences. So if you have something on your mind that we could do better at – then we want to hear about it. Get in touch with us - Contact Us."
},
{
"question": "You know Uber, right?",
"answer": "Well we’re like uber. On Uber drivers make money from their 2 key resources: time + car. On airhosta instead of a car + time, service providers have 2 key resources: time + experience in running an Airbnb or Short Term Rental. So as a marketplace we connect Airbnb and Vacation Rental service providers who have experience, are available and are from your location – including property managers, cleaners, concierge, key exchange, tourism and hospitality providers – with you."
},
{
"question": "Do you remember what it was like when you listed your place for the first time on Airbnb?",
"answer": "You weren't sure how to create a great profile...managing guest bookings was a real challenge... and keeping your place cleaned and ready for a new round of guests was hard work. You started from nowhere and you made something out of it. You're now a Co-Host or Superhost on Airbnb. Something you've earned through hardwork and a willingness to learn. Your skills and experience have a home on airhosta because there are thousands of people who are where you were. They are starting out just like you did or running an Airbnb and not really generating the kind of revenue they should because they need what you offer - expertise."
},
{
"question": "So why should you use airhosta?",
"answer": "Because your skills and expertise are in demand. We can help you create opportunities to connect with other Airbnb owners and by doing so help you generate a solid income from the things that make you stand out - Airbnb host knowledge and skills. You can either search or we can notify you of opportunities when an owner is looking via a ‘proposal request' (think of it like a job) for Airbnb related services in your area. You can then choose if you want to put a proposal in for the job. We’re about to release a new feature which means that owners can also reach you directly via an awesome profile in our Find Airbnb and Vacation Rental Service providers directory (wait until you see it!). Plus there's a whole heap of Co-Host only features we are looking to release in 2017 on airhosta."
},
{
"question": "How do I join the Co-Host community?",
"answer": "It’s easy. Just go to I'm a Co-Host and complete the contact form on the right side of the page and we'll get the ball rolling! There’s no point us charging you for something that Co-Hosts (and owners) haven’t fully experienced yet. So we want as many Co-Hosts and owners to use us, see the value in what we are doing and then work out how much we charge later on."
},
{
"question": "I joined the Co-Host community, but I can't find any opportunities to connect with owners?",
"answer": "We launched in January, 2017 – and with any new startup it takes a minimum of 6-12 months to start building up a baseline of demand (‘owners’) and supply (‘service providers and co-hosts’). If an owner lists a proposal request, and you’ve set your saved search criteria – we’ll email you to alert you. Note – this feature is currently being re-developed, and is scheduled for April, 2017. If an owner decides they want to search and hire directly, they can do this on airhosta by shortlisting you directly via your profile. We let you know when an owner has done this and provide their contact details, so you can progress the opportunity further."
},
{
"question": "What partnership opportunities do you look for?",
"answer": "We receive a high volume of partnership requests and consequently we’re very selective on who we partner with."
},
{
"question": "You know Uber right, and of course you know Airbnb?",
"answer": "They're what we call Share Economy 1.0 - startups that have recognised the opportunity that's been right in front of us for a long time. People have time and they have domestic resources that they can commercialize. In the case of Uber it is your time + your own car. For Airbnb it is your time + your spare room, apartment or home that is vacant. From this capacity an economy has emerged which has democratized the ability for people all around the world to commercialize domestic assets. At airhosta we are now pushing the envelope even further on the Share Economy. By creating Share Economy 2.0, we are creating a marketplace where people+time + skills/experiences working in Share Economy 1.0, can now effectively be resold back to Share Economy 1.0. By democratizing the services economy, we are providing the opportunity for anyone around the world to find meaningful and rewarding self-employment...something we really like the sound of."

For the first device in your account, the monthly subscription for service is your choice of $9.99/month or $99/year. For the second or more device, the monthly subscription for service is $8.99/month or $99/year. When you add another device to your account, the pricing for additional device(s) will automatically show as option for you to select. Based on your choice of either monthly or yearly subscription, your credit card will be automatically charged monthly or yearly so you don’t have to worry about it."
},
{
"question": "Can I pause my service?",
"answer": "Gibi does not require long term service contracts. To pause your service, log into your account using a computer or tablet. Then go to ACCOUNT > My Devices, then click Delete Device. Deleting a device from your account is stopping or pausing your service for that device. When service is stopped or paused, service paid to date will not resume when you add your Gibi back to your account (or another account) and previous subscription service payments already paid are not prorated and not refunded per the terms of service you agreed to a account registration. Subscription service already paid does not resume when starting service again. If you would like to pause your service, the time between stop and re-start must be within 6 (six) months of stopping service. If your Gibi device is not added back to your account (or another Gibi account) within 6 (six) months from stopping service, your Gibi device will be removed from the Gibi system completely and not be usable. To start service again, log into your account using a computer or tablet. Then go to ACCOUNT > My Devices, then click Add A New Device. Fill in the information requested. You will need your unique device ID located at the bottom of the device. If you need help, contact Customer Support at [email protected]."

"question": "What do I do before I ask?",
"answer": "Read the documentation and FAQ for the application. There is a wealth of TDE documentation availible both in the help center and online. A lot of time and effort has gone into this documentation, and often the answer to your question is there. The general TDE userguide can be found by typing help:/khelpcenter/userguide into the Konqueror address bar or khelpcenter help:/khelpcenter/userguide with the minicli. Search the web: Usually searching for a specific error message or searching mailing list archives will find a solution. Try it and see!"
},
{
"question": "Look through all the application options, read the What's this?",
"answer": "and tooltips for the ones you're not sure about. If you're really unsure about an option save your data and then try. As long as you use common sense you are unlikely to break anything by experimenting. Don't be lazy. If you show the people who you are asking that you are able to troubleshoot and research in a logical manner, you're showing them you're a reasonable person who is worth their time to help. It's your problem and not theirs so the legwork is yours to do. Save your helpers as much time as you can. Usually the best place to ask a question is on the IRC channels and mailing lists devoted to user questions. Don't post simple questions about using TDE to the devel channels and mailing lists, these are for technical discussions. Some good places are chat.freenode.net, channel: #trinity-desktop, and the TDE mailing lists. Try to word your questions in a manner that gives the most information possible and is polite and courteous. Don't ask to ask, just ask! This is not a question that is likely to get you a useful answer. It does not give any useful information about troubleshooting the problem, and it starts out attacking the software in a way that isn't productive. Q: Since updating TDE on Slackware Linux using sources, I have noticed it's being really slow sometimes applications take up to 20 seconds to launch. I am using the same user configuration as I had with the previous version. I have tried as a new user. I can't find anything about this on the mailing lists or by a web search."
},
{
"question": "Could anyone point me to some information that could help?",
"answer": "This question is polite, contains information to help people troubleshoot the problem and shows your helpers what avenues you have already tried. Don't presume automatically that the problem is the fault of TDE. Otherwise you likely will annoy people. Use clear language with correct spelling. Watch out for any ambiguities and make sure you think about what you say before you write it. If you are asked for clarification, give it as best you can. TDE is a project where many of the users and developers are not native english speakers and if you don't use correct english, misunderstandings might ensue. Be patient. Use the language appropriate to the channel or mailing list you are in if you don't, people who might have been able to help you might ignore your message because it is not in a language they understand. Include all information that could be relevant, even when you're not sure."
},
{
"question": "Have you updated other software or hardware on your system, particularly system libraries or a new kernel?",
"answer": "These things could affect how TDE performs. Even when you cannot see a connecting cause, someone else might. Don't paraphrase error messages. Paste in the exact error, and if it's more than a line or two don't paste them directly into an IRC channel. Use an online paste service. If you must type the messages by hand, be sure you are accurate. When you provide faulty information, your helpers cannot help you as easily. Follow through on your solution! Tell people when the solution worked, or when you have solved the problem yourself. This helps everybody involved know when solutions work and helps other users who might be searching for a similar solution to the problem."
},
{
"question": "What do I do when told to look elsewhere?",
"answer": "Possibly you have not followed the above advice. You've not done your research, and the solution probably is one the helper knows very well to be easy to find. When provided a web link to an FAQ or documentation don't say, No, I don't want to have to read this I want you to just tell me. That response is considered bad manners. People who don't provide effort to learn often find others have little incentive to help. Use common courtesy. TDE users and developers volunteer their time out of an already very busy schedule, and like to know that you are appreciating they are helping you for free. Be polite, say please and thank you, be constructive, and try to be pleasant and friendly."

"question": "What’s the difference between a note and a chapter?",
"answer": "A note is just for practice or for jotting down ideas and plans for your project - think of it like the messy pages in your journal. You can create a note before a challenge officially begins, and whatever you write in a note doesn’t count towards your word-count. A chapter is for writing the actual glorious words of your novel. You can only create them during a challenge, and they count towards your word-count."

[
{
"question": "Who started Leader in Me?",
"answer": "Leader in Me was originally developed by a principal and teachers who wanted to teach their students life skills such as leadership, responsibility, accountability, problem solving, adaptability, effective communication, and more. Based on demand from Summers and other principals and teachers who had observed or heard about A.B. Combs’ success, FranklinCovey codified Summers’ process, creating The Leader in Me so that other schools could implement the leadership model and achieve similar results. Promote racial and socioeconomic diversity. Provide integrated curricula and instruction. Create partnerships that enhance the school’s theme. Since its official launch nearly six years ago, over 2,500 public, private, charter, and magnet schools across 35 countries have adopted The Leader in Me. Educators continue to offer feedback on best practices, which provides the basis for continuous improvement and refinement of the process."

"question": "Which wheel would you recommend that I adapt?",
"answer": "There are several items in my maintenance kit that I have no clue as to what they are, or how they work."
},
{
"question": "A clear short length of solid plastic tube?",
"answer": "– This is the con-rod joint now supplied in all spinning wheel kits. The new plastic con-rod joint replaced the leather joint on older model spinning wheels. On current models you will notice a hole drilled in the con-rod (the wooden piece that goes from the crank to the base of the wheel) to take the plastic con-rod joint."
},
{
"question": "A small piece of white ribbon?",
"answer": "– This is the threading hook tape. Tie it to your threading hook to conveniently hang your hook on your wheel."
},
{
"question": "A tiny flat back circular piece of metal?",
"answer": "– This is the E-clip now supplied in all spinning wheel kits. This replaced the rubber O-ring which is placed on the end of the metal crank (which goes through the middle of the wheel). There is a groove cut in the crank to take an O-ring or and E-clip."
},
{
"question": "Why does the drive band keep popping off my Elizabeth when I set it in double drive?",
"answer": "It is likely that the bobbin whorl is not quite in line with your wheel. This can be easily corrected by loosening the bolts securing the main wheel supports under the base. Twist the supports slightly so the wheel moves to the left or right until correctly aligned. Then retighten. As you retighten ensure that the wheel continues to turn freely."
},
{
"question": "What is the Kiwi Wheel made from and how do I finish it?",
"answer": "The Wheel part of the Kiwi is made from composite materials (customwood) so it is actually more stable than solid timber products. The rest of the wheel is made from Southland Silver Beech. As with all wooden products a protection from dry moist climates is achieved by coating the product with a finish. Either the Ashford wax finishing kit or a Danish oil finish would be suitable. The customwood can also be stained with NGR stain and lacquered over the top. I have recently purchased an Ashford Traditional Wheel and assembled it. I’ve placed the DD belt around the wheel, whorl, then the wheel again and under the bobbin and attached it with a square knot."
},
{
"question": "Is this correct?",
"answer": "Yes, you are correct. The result is the bobbin rotates faster than the flyer due to the smaller whorl on the bobbin. When drafting the yarn, the drive cord slips in the bobbin whorl, but when you release the tension on the yarn, the bobbin accelerates to the speed it is being driven and pulls the yarn onto itself. To vary the pull on the yarn, loosen or tighten the belt tension."
},
{
"question": "How can I tell if my Traditional Wheel will accept the double treadle conversion kit?",
"answer": "To identify if it will fit, the front treadle rail should be 19 3/4″ long. Earlier models (pre 1972) were about 2″ longer."
},
{
"question": "How do I prevent my Ashford Traditional Wheel ‘walking’?",
"answer": "1) Try attaching rubber feet (available from hardware stores) to the ends of the three feet if the floor surface is wooden. 2) ‘Walking’ on carpet suggests too much horizontal pressure, rather than vertical. Try pushing down with your ankle, rather than away with your leg. 3) The wheel, flyer or bobbin may not be rotating freely. a) Remove the drive cord and brake band, and conrod from the crank. b) Rotate the wheel. If it stops quickly the wheel bearings need oiling. c) Move the con rod up and down. If it does not move freely, lie the wheel on its ends and drip a little oil into the holes in the legs for the treadle pins. d) Re-attach the con rod to the crank and secure. Oil the con rod bearing. – the bearings are clean and lightly oiled, and at 90 degrees to the flyer shaft. – If the bobbin is tight on the flyer shaft use a 1/4″ chainsaw file to ream it out slightly. – there should be 1-2 mm (1/16″) end float between the flyer bearings and bobbin. 5) Smooth the groove in the bobbin whorl so the brake band doesn’t catch. 6) Cut the brake and between the tension knob and screw eye and add a second tension spring. 7) Replace the drive cord and brake band."
},
{
"question": "Do you plan to make a Jumbo Flyer for the Joy?",
"answer": "Due to the outrigger style of the flyer we have decided it is unwise to offer a Jumbo size Flyer for the Joy as it could potentially be damaged by a heavier bobbin. The Joy is first and foremost a light-weight portable wheel and to beef it up to take a Jumbo Flyer would unfortunately make it heavier. The plastic drive band on my Joy Wheel seems to be slowly stretching making it hard to maintain proper tension."
},
{
"question": "Is there a way to stop the stretching or get it a little smaller?",
"answer": "The drive band can be cut and rejoined by melting the ends with a gas flame (a match is OK but tends to carbon up the joint slightly), then just push the ends together while the material cools. We recommend loosening the drive belt tension when not in use by popping the belt off the flyer whorl and letting down one speed. While spinning with my Joy Wheel the machine moves along easily, however when I start plying, the treadling becomes harder."
},
{
"question": "Why does this occur?",
"answer": "1) Smooth the bottom of the bobbin whorl groove with sandpaper or scotchbrite. 2) Apply a drop of oil to the bobbin whorl to allow the brake band to slip more easily. 3) On the Joy we drill pilot holes beside the holes for brake tension knob and threading hook knob. These pilot holes allow you to swap the screw eye attached to the tension spring from one side to the other as well as the tension knob and threading hook. Have the spring on the left when spinning (clockwise) and on the right when plying (anticlockwise). The tension spring lets the brake band slip which makes treadling easier. 4) Cut the brake band between the tension knob and bobbin whorl and add a second tension spring. This means there is no need to swap the tension knob from side to side. Springs are available from Ashford dealers all over the USA. My Elizabeth wheel has been moved so many times in the last 12 years that its wheel is very wobbly. The spokes are very loose and there is a wide gap (around 1/4 to 3/8 of an inch) in the center of the wheel where the spokes go in."
},
{
"question": "Could you give some suggestions of what and what not to do to repair it?",
"answer": "It’s a relatively simple repair job. Remove the crank, prise open the hub so it’s in 2 pieces but make a mark so you can put the spokes back in the same holes. Use regular wood glue on the spokes and hub and glue it back together clamping it with 2 G clamps. Leave the crank through the hub so the hole remains aligned but remove it and clean out the hole for the hub pin before the glue dries. Check if possible that the rim and crank are at right angles so the wheel will run true. If this is unsuccessful a replacement wheel can be ordered from your local Ashford dealer."
},
{
"question": "How do I get the wheel to slow down and still turn the bobbin to wind on the yarn?",
"answer": "To slow the wheel down treadle slower. One treadle per second is a nice speed. If the yarn won’t pull onto the bobbin check that there are no snags in the flyer orifice. Possibly in manufacture these weren’t removed & they are catching the yarn & preventing it from being pulled onto the bobbin."
},
{
"question": "If there are snags, scrape them out with a file..\nWhat can I do to my Elizabeth wheel to keep it from getting out of alignment when I travel?",
"answer": "For easy treadling check the alignment of the wheel supports with the wheel. You can unloosen the bolts securing them into the base with the 4mm allen key which came with the kit, then twist the wheel supports until the wheel turns freely & retighten. Check that the flyer bearings are at right angles to the flyer shaft. If not twist the upright into alignment. If you have set it up for double drive then the drive belt goes around the wheel, around the larger pulley on the flyer, around the wheel again & around the smaller bobbin pulley & tie the ends together. Check that the bobbin rotates very freely on the flyer shaft. If not the bearings may need oiling. If in extreme cases that doesn’t help, then the bobbin bearings may need to be reamed with a 1/4″ round chainsaw file. If you handle your Elizabeth reasonably carefully it should remain set ready to spin."
},
{
"question": "Why are there two tension springs on the Joy?",
"answer": "We include two springs so that when plying, the brake band will flex rather than pull against a fixed point (tension knob). Folk have generally found it harder to treadle when plying and two springs seem to make it easier."
},
{
"question": "I would like to dismantle my large drum carder to remove some fluff from the bearings – is it possible to do this without interfering with function?",
"answer": "Yes, it is reasonably easy to dismantle your drum carder for cleaning. Just remove the handle and 4 screws securing the right hand side to the tray and back rail. Then slide the side off and clean the bearings on the right hand side. The left side can be moved sufficiently to get in with a hook to catch the tangled fibres. If it’s bad, then I suggest a complete disassembly. Hammer the tension pins out of the shafts. Then the carder will come completely apart. Take care to note how to reassemble it and the direction of the card wire teeth where they touch."
},
{
"question": "Where should I be oiling my drum carder?",
"answer": "There are oil holes in the two nylon eccentric bushes holding the small drum. try a drop of Ashford Spinning Oil or similar light oil into these and also the two bearings supporting the large drum and the two bearings into the idler pulleys."
},
{
"question": "My drum carder is very dirty, how do I clean it?",
"answer": "The best way to clean the drum carder is with warm soapy water. Wash the carder teeth carefully with an old toothbrush and some mineral turpentine. You should also check to see if there are any fibers wrapped around the shafts. If so clean them out with a fine hook or needle. For best results you may take some of the carder apart. 7. Reassemble the right side, tightening the screws. Put the handle in place, adjust the front drum and tighten the bolt. If it is really jammed up, remove the C-Clips from the shafts so the whole machine can be disassembled, but take care not to let the clips fly into your eyes or just disappear."
},
{
"question": "Why am I getting shades of rust when mixing the dyes?",
"answer": "The dyes are very strong so it’s easy to get mud (or rusty shades). When you use the rainbow dye method with the correct quantities, and instructions…a wonderful spectrum of colour is produced. The slower you cook the pot, the clearer the colours. I am Interested in taking up tapestry weaving. Please tell me the sizes of your looms."
},
{
"question": "Why should I choose an Ashford loom?",
"answer": "The Ashford company has been in business for over 60 years and has distributors world-wide always on hand for advice and after sales service."
},
{
"question": "Why can’t I get my edges right when weaving a plain twill?",
"answer": "Beginning weavers are frequently frustrated because the edge thread of the selvedge does not weave in. In this case, take out the rows you have woven and start your weaving from the opposite side. If you change the direction of your twill, you must change sides again."
},
{
"question": "How do I decide what kind of yarn is best for my project?",
"answer": "Usually it is best to try a sample of each yarn you are considering. People seem to be changing to Tex solv heddles."
},
{
"question": "Why is that?",
"answer": "The Tex solv heddles are strong and light weight. This makes the shafts lighter to lift. Sometimes the heddles tend to rust."
},
{
"question": "Can I make a rug on the Rigid Heddle loom?",
"answer": "Yes, certainly. Use a beater after each row of weaving rather than the heddle. It makes a firmer rug."

Your vehicles are always clean and include little extras like beverages and a newspaper. I am sure you are ruining it for other limousine companies.\" On hourly packages, such as weddings, there are no additional charges for extra stops. This includes taking Home to church, to pictures, stopping at home, to the reception, etc. This does NOT apply if you want to use the vehicle as a shuttle service or to tour around with no specific destinations in mind. We do not 'Cruise' aimlessly in any of the vehicles. 'Picture Packages' where we pick up after the ceremony to drive around only for pictures will incur extra fuel/location charges.

As long as the vehicle isn't scheduled to be somewhere else, we will gladly extend the length of your event. This is completely dependent upon scheduling. The best rule is to schedule for as long as you feel you may need the vehicle, but there is no refund for unused time, so being punctual counts."

"question": "Q: Who can handle firearms/air weapons/shotguns on the range?",
"answer": "A: Full members of an approved club can, without a personal certificate, have possession of firearms on the range so long as their reason for doing so is target shooting. Until a probationary member has satisfactorily completed a course in the safe handling and use of firearms, he/she must be supervised at all times when in possession of firearms or ammunition by either the range officer, a full member of the club, or someone who is a coach with a qualification recognised by the governing bodies. Non-shooting forms of membership such as associate, family, social or honorary (where applicable) may only have access to firearms and ammunition when participating in 'guest days' and operating under the strictest of supervision. RCO's and coaches can obviously possess the weapons, provide instruction and ensure safe shooting practices whilst on the range. RFD's and any servants can possess weapons in relation to the usual RFD business practices, including the testing and zeroing of weapons but not for casual target shooting."
},
{
"question": "Q: Do Club members need to take part in competition to keep their certificate, or is practice/target shooting sufficient?",
"answer": "A: If the good reason for an air weapon certificate is provided as a club target shooter, it is expected that the certificate holder will be a member of a club, approved or otherwise, and shoot regularly. There is no requirement to shoot at competitions or events but the member should sign in to allow later review of club attendance. In terms of firearms, a firearm certificate holder must show ‘good reason’ for the possession of the firearms on their certificate. There is no requirement to take part on competition but there is a requirement to show that each firearm that is possessed is used regularly."
},
{
"question": "Q: How many times per year (if any) Do Club members need to take part in competition to keep their certificate, or is practice/target shooting sufficient?",
"answer": "A: If the good reason for an air weapon certificate is provided as a club target shooter, it is expected that the certificate holder will be a member of a club, approved or otherwise, and shoot regularly. The number of times to shoot regularly has not been defined in law, however can be taken in line with the Home Office Guidance on Firearms Licensing Law in respect of approved rifle and muzzle loading pistol clubs in that they should be used at least three times a year to be sufficient to be classed as regular shooting at a club. There is no requirement to shoot at competitions or events but the member should sign in to allow later review of club attendance. There is nothing preventing the certificate holder expressing multiple good reason for the use of the weapon. In terms of firearms, it should be considered the same as above, and a note made of the firearms that are being used on each occasion. Ammunition purchased at the club or range should be noted on the firearm certificate as that shows a purchase and use history that could support you later when approaching the police to increase your ammunition levels as good reason is again scrutinised."
},
{
"question": "Q: Is it correct that Police Scotland are expecting all FAC holders to have shot each rifle a minimum of 3 times?",
"answer": "A: Section 13.53 of the most recent Home Office Guidance on Firearms Licensing Law states that firearms should be used, at least, 3 or more times a year, with some exceptions. This is a minimum standard, however each case would be considered on its own basis in terms of a certificate holders continued good reason if for any reason they were unable to regularly attend their club."
},
{
"question": "Q: Can Police Scotland access the firearms database while on patrol?",
"answer": "A; Not currently however Police Scotland are constantly looking to introduce technology to enable workforce efficiency and operational effectiveness, using analytics, better quality data and wider sources to improve decision making. All these factors will impact on how we deliver Firearms Licensing in the future. Police Officer cannot access the database whilst on patrol but have indirect access through “Shogun”. It was confirmed that if a person does not have a licence on their person then the Officer could call to check Shogun. Currently, Police Scotland is ascertaining the capability of their existing ICT systems to allow their command and control system to allow immediate identification of properties where weapons may legally be held. This will support public safety immeasurably if it is feasible."
},
{
"question": "Q: what provisions do I need to make for storing my air weapon(s)?",
"answer": "A: The Home Office provides more extensive guidance about this but essentially it advises that in many cases it will be sufficient to store your air weapon in an existing, suitably robust, lockable cupboard - keeping the keys separate and secure. Alternatively, use a lock or locking device to attach your air weapon to the fabric of a building, or to a fixed feature or use a security cord, lockable chain or similar device attached to a point of anchorage within the building. You, as the certificate holder, must show that you have taken all reasonable precautions for the safe custody of your air weapon(s). If unsure what is acceptable, do not hesitate to contact Police Scotland directly who will be able to advise what is appropriate in your own specific circumstances."
},
{
"question": "Q: what is the legal position of shooting with an expired licence while waiting on their licence renewal to be processed?",
"answer": "A: Where an individual has applied for the renewal of an air weapon certificate before its expiry but the Chief Constable has not, as at the date of its expiry, determined whether or not to grant the renewal, the certificate is to continue to have effect until the application is determined (sec 8(2) of the AW Act). It has been considered from a legal perspective that receipt of application by the relevant National Firearms and Explosive Licensing Processing Office would be the standard that would be considered when determining if an application has been made which would allow for the above to stand. A certificate holder could not walk into a police office in Aberdeen on their day of expiry and consider that they would be allowed to continue use of their air weapon until a decision has been made by the Chief Constable."

"question": "Q: If a junior aged 14 to 18 has a Certificate and one parent also has a Certificate, is it legal for the other parent, who does not have a Certificate, to transport the junior and their air Gun to an event, competition or training?",
"answer": "A: A parent who does not possess an air weapon certificate (or otherwise) cannot transport a weapon from A to B on behalf of their child."
},
{
"question": "Q: If the second parent requires to have a Certificate and is not a member of recognised air Gun club and has no intention of joining a club, is “to transport child” an acceptable reason to apply for A certificate?",
"answer": "A: Parents can apply for a full Air Weapon Certificate and will be granted on the grounds that possession and transportation on behalf of a minor is good reason."
},
{
"question": "Q: does The Air WEapons and Licensing (Scotland) Act 2015 interact with the Violent Crime Reduction Bill with regards to purchase of air guns in Scotland?",
"answer": "A; The sale of air weapons has not changed. Sec 31 of the Violent Crime Reduction Act 2006 provides Prohibition on sale or transfer of air weapons, except by registered dealer to the 1968 Act, by way of trade or business. The Air Weapons and Licensing (Scotland) Act 2015 does not encroach upon this piece of legislation in this respect. Q: we have seen a drop in shooters attending competitions due to the uncertainty since the introduction of Air Gun licences. some clubs are taking a ‘no licence, no shoot’ approach."
},
{
"question": "What is the legal position while shooting without a licence under supervision at clubs?",
"answer": "c) where A is under the age of 14, A's use and possession of an air weapon is supervised by another club member aged 21 years or more. Section 16(1) of the Act, provides it is not an offence under section 24(1) or (2) for a person listed in sub-paragraph (2) to lend or to let on hire an air weapon to an individual (“A”), who does not hold an air weapon certificate, for the purpose of A's using and possessing the weapon in accordance with an exemption under this schedule."
},
{
"question": "Q: if a junior (under 18) has a rifle but this is listed under a parents FAC (or has an air gun listed under the club’s guns), can that junior transport either gun unaccompanied?",
"answer": "A: An under 18 with an air weapon cannot transport their weapon from A to B without supervision of a suitably certified person over the age of 21. For a firearm it is slightly different in that they can possess their firearm if over 14. However, Police Scotland would always advise that a responsible adult accompany them at this age."
},
{
"question": "Q: Is it possible to issue an Air Weapon Certificate card that can fit in a wallet or purse instead of having to carry the full certificate all the time?",
"answer": "A: This is not something that would be progressed by Police Scotland. The Air Weapons and Licensing (Scotland) Act 2015 and its associated Orders defined what an ‘air weapon certificate’ should look like and thereafter set it out on statute. Even the paper that is used upon which the details of the certificate is printed is a specific style of paper which is to prevent illegal copying. Police Scotland would not have any objections to changes but the implementation of the change would need to come from the Scottish Government so it is recommended a request to make a change like this is best taken to the Scottish Government. Q: Given the experience of trying to carry a paper certificate in all conditions."
},
{
"question": "If asked for his/her licence when in possession of an air rifle, what would the process be and can a plastic card be introduced which is more resilient to weather conditions?",
"answer": "A: This is not something that can be progressed by Police. This is a certificate agreed within UK Government and provided by statute. It is believed, there has been no discussions where the paper certificate is to be replaced by a card. The capability to do this is available, but not something any police force in the UK is able to progress without Government approval."
},
{
"question": "Q: Can Certificates or Licences be laminated?",
"answer": "A: With regards to firearms certificates, these cannot be laminated as there will remain the need to add or remove weapons as well as show a purchase history with regards to ammunition. With regards to air weapons certificates, these can be but SHOULD not be. The paper used for the air weapon certificate incorporates certain anti-identity theft security features and allows greater chance of forgery as the feel of certificate paper is quite different than normal paper. An alternative option is the use of a polypocket which can be sellotaped at the top which means it can be opened to confirm authenticity if required."
},
{
"question": "Q: What Information am I required to provide to Police scotland and when with regards To new members?",
"answer": "A: As per Home Office Guidance in relation to the 'Approval of Rifle and Muzzle loading pistol clubs' it states that in relation to new members Clubs are only required to provide the 'Full Name, Home Address, Date and Place of Birth, and date on which they became a full member'. Over and above that criteria you do not lawfully need to retain or provide any additional information. Notification should be submitted to Police Scotland when someone submits a 'formal application' for membership. For clubs that have a probationary period, notification would need to be made at that point but would not need to be submitted again if the individual is made a ‘full’ member."
},
{
"question": "Q: My Club has been Asked to complete a Questionnaire by Police Scotland, Am I required to complete this?",
"answer": "A: Police Scotland have now confirmed that it is not a “requirement” under the firearms legislation that the questionnaire be completed. Nonetheless, Police Scotland do have powers which would entitle inspection of Club records in terms of the club’s approved status - therefore they would be entitled to recover at least some of the information requested by means of an inspection. Such inspections, however, would obviously be time consuming and a drain on resources as well as inconvenient for clubs. Bearing in mind that Police Scotland have responsibility for ensuring compliance with that legislation by all clubs, by certificate holders and for public safety, it is in all of our interests, as well as the public interest generally, that the shooting community should provide its assistance and co-operation providing the information requested. That having been said, Police Scotland have very helpfully indicated that it was not the intention of this exercise to subject Club Secretaries to a significant volume of work. In particular, there is no requirement for Club Secretaries to find out information requested which is not already in their possession. That is to say, that they do not need to chase up any of the information requested which they do not already hold. An important reason for the thought which has required to be given to this matter is the fact that Club Secretaries, and Police Scotland, are bound by Data Protection legislation, in particular, Section 35 of the Data Protection Act 2018. For the protection of Club Secretaries, STS suggests that clubs obtain and record (in any convenient form in your club records) the agreement of each of your club members to the club providing that information to Police Scotland. That is the same information which Police Scotland would have been entitled to obtain by the inspection exercise described above."

{
"question": "Q: Does a club need to apply for an event certificate if they hold an open shoot (not necessary an STS event)?",
"answer": "A: For rifle and muzzle loading pistol clubs, these would operate as they do currently in respect of club competitions. The Home Office make allowance for guest days which clubs should notify police about but would pay for in reference to a permit. In reference to an air weapon club, the chief constable may, on the application of a person who is organising or otherwise responsible for an event, grant a permit authorising individuals at the event to borrow, hire, use and possess air weapons while engaging in an event activity without holding an air weapon certificate. This would possibly include an open shoot whereby you have shooters coming from the UK or abroad. Were all the attendees legally able to hold and use an air weapon in their own right, then you would not need to have an event permit. Q: Does a non-certificate holder (e.g. visitor to an approved club) need close supervision (i.e."
},
{
"question": "one to one) or is it just the case that a licence holder needs to be present at the club?",
"answer": "Visitors possessing firearms that fall within the terms of the club’s approval and that are held on their personal FAC or Visitor’s permit or Permit under Section 7 of the 1968 Firearms Act. The club does not have more than 12 guest days a year. Guest members (other than members of another approved club or visitors with a Firearm Certificate, Visitors permit or Permit under Section 7 of the 1968 Firearms Act as above), may only shoot during a guest day, and must be supervised on a one to one basis at all times when handling firearms and ammunition by either a full club member or someone who is a coach recognised by the governing bodies. The club secretary must notify each guest day to the police firearms licensing department of the area in which the guest day is to take place at least 48 hours in advance. Where A is under the age of 14, A’s use and possession of an air weapon is supervised by another club member aged 21 years or more."

{
"question": "Q: We see a huge variety in the medical check charges from free to £200 – do you have any advice around this?",
"answer": "A: Police Scotland has identified this as a problem both to the Home Office and Scottish Government. Ultimately it is outside the responsibility of Police Scotland and would require to be considered from a national (UK) perspective. A recent survey provided the average fee to be £40 but I am aware of certain GP’s who charge in excess of £200. Unfortunately, Police Scotland can provide no advice around this issue but is working with GPs to try and bring these down and currently, out of 1,025 GP Practices in Scotland, there are now only 10 who are registered as conscientious objectors which is down from 12 months ago due to ongoing conversations Police Scotland have been having with these GPs."
},
{
"question": "Q: Can the difference between ‘refused’ and ‘banned’ be clarified?",
"answer": "Any person sentence to serve between three months and three years (or who has been given a suspended sentence of this duration) is prohibited from possessing any firearm for a period of five years. Any person sentenced to serve a prison sentence of three years or more is prohibited as above for life. These prohibitions may be listed on appeal to an appropriate Sheriff. In terms of refusal, this is when Police Scotland have undertaken an enquiry at time of application and determined that the applicant is unsuitable, for whatever reason to possess a certificate that allows access to weapons. This does not prevent that person shooting where an exemption under the Firearms Act 1968 applies. Further advice can be found within Chapter 6 of the Home Office Guide on Firearms Licensing Law. Where a club member is refused, then that Club would be notified of the refusal as per the Home Office Guidance. It would rest with the Club to determine whether they would continue with the membership of the individual. In terms of revocations, these should be considered the same as a refusal in terms of what it considers. Whilst reviews are undertaken into a refusal or revocation, where weapons are held, these will tend to be seized by the Police where there is a perceived danger to public safety. It was noted that by June 2017 there had been 126 refusals out of 14,500 air weapon certificate applications. Police Scotland apply common sense and proportionality when reviewing applications."
},
{
"question": "Q: When should licence holders start applying for renewals?",
"answer": "A: In Scotland, certificate holders will be notified around 16 weeks prior to the expiry of a certificate. In respect of a firearms certificate holder, they will be asked to download and complete and retain the application, make payment digitally and ensure they have all the paperwork they require for the enquiry to be processed, i.e. land suitability etc. They will be asked to provide a letter to their GP which asks the GP to make comment of the medical history of the applicant. A firearms enquiry officer will make contact with the applicant and arrange a suitable time to attend and undertake the enquiry. At this point, the firearms enquiry officer will attend, undertake an interview, review your application, evaluate the security, confirm payment and finally uplift all the paperwork so your certified enquiry can progress hopefully to re-certification. In respect of air weapons, certificate holders will be notified around 16 weeks prior to the expiry of a certificate. They will be asked to download and complete their application before sending it, photographs and payment to the relevant Firearms and Explosive Licensing Office who will progress the enquiry. It is recommended that the return of the application is not delayed and certainly submitted prior to 8 weeks before expiry to ensure it smooth process and no weapon is held illegally. Q: Does the renewal Process Require a complete re-application i.e."
},
{
"question": "will I need a referee again?",
"answer": "A: Yes, the same application forms are used for the grant and renewal of both firearms and air weapons. There remains a requirement to provide photographs and detail medical concerns and criminal convictions, even if the applicant has mentioned the same in a previous application. The only difference will be the fee to be paid in respect of a renewal. However, if an applicant makes a claim on a form that is later found to be false, the person will be charged."
},
{
"question": "Q: There have been hugely varying times for renewals - what are the factors that can impact this?",
"answer": "A: Most firearm licensing enquires follow a 16 week cycle which is transparent to the applicant, clear to the staff undertaking the enquiry, and allows sufficiency in most occasions for a fully informed decision to be made. Where applications are not completed properly or where GP’s are not engaged timeously, these can cause individual delays. Certificate holder unaware that they require to submit an AWL 1 form for renewal. No verifier’s details completed as they have previously supplied these on the original form. No reference number on online banking payment making it difficult to trace - it is accepted that this can be the fault of the bank and not due to the Certificate holder. Not completing the relevant sections with details and merely stating ' as per previous form'. Q: Does Police Scotland brief all travel entities (rail, air, sea etc.)"
},
{
"question": "about air weapon legislation and the carriage of air weapons to minimise disruption to the traveller especially when traveller is challenged to prove weapon is theirs?",
"answer": "A: Scottish Government has provided guidance which is available by following the http://airweapon.scot/images/uploads/downloads/Air_Weapons_Licensing_-_Guidance_-_April_2017.pdf. This is an open source living document that any person or organisation can review. Initially we did deal with significant queries in regards this very matter and we were able to provide guidance and direction to a multitude of companies. Police Scotland does not pro-actively approach companies per se but we are always willing to offer support and guidance where appropriate. It was asked who was responsible for weapons when they are taken off the FAC holder on a flight, as no receipt is given. It was confirmed that the FAC holder is legally responsible whilst they have them in their possession, but when the airline takes control of them, they have responsibility if they are authorised carriers. The Scottish Government holds a list of authorised airline carriers and these will provided to STS to share with members."
},
{
"question": "Q: What are the regulations for clubs transporting rifles that are under a Club FAC to another club for competitions?",
"answer": "Members of an approved rifle or muzzle-loading pistol club who carry club firearms and ammunition for the purpose of club shoots at ranges away from their home club premises benefit from the provisions of section 15 of the 1988 Act. People so doing might be encouraged to carry written authority from their club secretary or club official and a copy of the club certificate. Firearms removed from club premises for the purpose of participating in competitions should be returned, without delay, to the club storage after the competition, unless it is impracticable to do so. This supports the proposition that a club member, without holding a certificate, can indeed travel to a ‘target shooting’ activity without holding a certificate in their own right. From the point of a Club, this would support the sport, but places a significant responsibility upon the club and would seek reassurance that the person is a nominated club official and that a copy of the club certificate be present during transport. Police Scotland recommend from a Club perspective, where weapons cannot be returned to approved security, alternative measures are employed which does not breach legislation, i.e. the transporter cannot just take them back to their house. The security condition remains in place whoever has actual possession. Clarification was sought of whether a RFD certificate holder or appointed agent could transport weapons. It was confirmed that this was permissible if it forms part of the business plan."
},
{
"question": "Q: Can a member of a club use club firearms and airguns in the club and transport a club firearm and/or air gun to a competition venue or squad training?",
"answer": "A: That is correct for firearms and air weapons with regards to club usage and transportation. It is acceptable for members other than the firearm certificate holder, if the activity is clearly in connection with target shooting, to transport firearms (or air weapons) to another club or authorised range for a competition or to a dealer for repair. It is advisable when transporting firearms (or air weapons) as a member of a club to have some form of written authorisation from a club official. Police Scotland would also accept that a squad training camp is clearly in connection with target shooting and therefore the aforementioned would also apply for this scenario."
},
{
"question": "Q: Why do I have to wait for 16 weeks for a variation to my FAC when Another club member applied to Glasgow Division and was awarded the variation within a few days, without checks?",
"answer": "A: This is an ongoing issue in certain areas and is currently being reviewed. The process will, for the most part, be undertaken much quicker and smoother and allow for the certificate holder to receive their variation in a shorter period. However, this is with the caveat that where a variation request is considered contentious, further enquiry may be required and thus, on that individual occasion, it may be longer before a decision is made."
