Cleaner Indoor Air strives to educate churches and other religious groups on how to create a less threatening environment for a growing number of people who report mild to serious reactions to synthetic fragrances and chemicals. These efforts do not claim to be “foolproof” nor a solution for every case. However, in many situations, these changes can help to remove some barriers keeping people from entering a building.
Once educated on the numbers of people living with asthma, allergies and/or MCS, many churches may have interest in asking staff and/or visitors not to wear perfumes or fragrances, using fans and air purifiers in the restrooms instead of air fresheners and/or using alternative cleaning products.

Which film should I use?
I am a traditional photographic printer, meaning that I like to make prints in the darkroom. Unfortunately, it isn't always practical or quick to produce work this way.
The original negative scan inverted.
All the image are clickable to larger sizes.
The digital retouching was done on a 3rd Gen iPad using various programs, but somewhere along the way, the image lost some resolution. Probably in Sketchbook as the app resized the image to it's maximum or default. Sketchbook was used to spot the image, a process remarkably similar to spotting a silver gelatin photographic print. In the future, for work which will be output to digital prints, they will be retouched on a desktop computer and a full version of Photoshop CS6, in order to more easily spot, retouch, and refine the images while holding onto the maximum resolution. I hope the experience will become better on the iPad as new apps and tools are added that make retouching easier. For now, it is an exercise in patience.

Burn: AAAA – Burns well and a fairly smooth smoke. Appears to be flushed.
Info: Love Potion #1 is a sativa dominant hybrid cross of the popular G-13 and Colombian Gold strains. This bud was reportedly named for its ability to stimulate and arouse….the cure for any of your loving needs. Regardless of how it may or may not effect you, this strain was the winner of the 2004 High Times’ Cannabis Cup. The high gives you an extremely uplifted and euphoric mood and a tingling body high that can make you sensitive. This stimulation can be very arousing to some. Many reviewers actually use the term ‘horny’. Because of these stimulating effects, Love Potion #1 is often used to treat chronic fatigue, chronic stress or anxiety, mild to moderate cases of depression, and nausea.
Sample submitted: “Love Potion #1” dried cannabis flowers.
Visual Inspection: Free from visible contamination and foreign matter.
This Love Potion is a nice subtle high, I can enjoy any time of day or night. It’s not too heavy.. But, still effective at pain relief and helps me relax and get comfortable at night.
Unfortunately I don’t seem to receive the tingly (horny) feeling that some users talk about.. So, that was a little disappointing.
Great strain for any time of day. I highly recommend this one.
Very nice high. My partner who is not as regular a smoker as I am said she felt euphoric and really enjoyed the full body buz from the tips of her curling toes (wink wink) to the top of her tingling head. My experience was exactly the same.
I love the light high from this. Helps my anxiety a lot!! I find it made me super chatty and motivated to get things done!!!

Disruptive innovations are leading to new ways of delivering applications and services. Enterprises and CSPs will find it difficult to navigate unknown territory. We have experience captializing on these new opportunities.
Challenge: How do we migrate from a non-robust wide area network (WAN) over a commercial network to a highly reliable and high performance WAN over utility fiber infrastructure?
Methodology: We architected a future-mode smart grid network architecture based on a network design tested by Bell Labs, designed to support operations technology and IT applications, designed to suport both regulated and unregulated parts of the utility’s business, and uses previously underutilized utility network resources as part of the network backbone. This eliminated purpose-built disparate networks.
Value Creation: Our architecture made a private IP/MPLS network more robust, efficient and cost-effective than that typically provided by commercial operators to support all current & future smartgrid needs.
Challenge: Should we base our Public Safety Mobile Broadband (PSMB) strategy on private soutions, commercial MNO-based solutions, or a commercial-private hybrid?
Methodology: We compared public safety mobile broadband network deployment alternatives and appraised rollout options for a mission critical public safety LTE network for 5 public safety and emergency agencies within the agency's region. We compared different investment scenarios with public or private LTE in different bands.
Value Creation: We demonstrated that a private LTE network in the 450 MHz band is most technically optimal and cost-effective.
Challenge: How can we improve the resiliency of our network with 6,000 locations across 15 countries and with 2 datacenters?
Methodology: We conducted a network architecture audit, with a focus on risk mitigation and quantified the current maturity of operations against our Bell Labs index across 5 innovation dimensions. We developed a recommendation roadmap with medium and long term actions, quantifying impact on network future-proofness.
Value Creation: We provided organization repositioning recommendations to leverage virtualization and automation opportunities and a 5 year roadmap with over 40 actions to close maturity gaps.

As usual Walney's 2009 carnival set off from the Roundhouse, proceeding through it's now well established route north east along Ocean Road, turning left into Black Butts Lane. At the most northerly junction of Black Butts the carnival turns right onto Central Drive followed by an immediate left on to Moor Tarn Lane, following the road round to Mill Lane. The carnival procession completed it's route at North Walney Junior School Field to allow the afternoons planned events to take place. Growing year on year on year and with a little help of the good weather this year gave one of the best, if not the best ever turn-out for the crowds for what was a stunning and entertaining day.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Due to the lack of organisational assistance this year, 2009 may well have been the last Carnival to be held on Walney for the foreseeable future? Due to there only being 4 organisers, for this massive undertaking. Walney's annual carnival has raised many thousands of pounds for the island's good causes and has been a major fund raiser over the past 11-years. if you would like to see this event continue and feel that you may have something to offer, or are simply willing to offer your services, no matter how small please contact Steve on 01229-472409 or Tony on 01229-476669. With 2010 fast approaching planning needs to be underway very shortly, so the sooner services are offered the better the chances are of retaining this event.

This 6-day luxury tour offers travelers a well-rounded journey from the capital Phnom Penh to the temples of Siem Reap. On the way, you’ll visit Battambang, a former trading post for Thai, Khmer and French traders, with an interesting architectural legacy of French colonial mansions and elaborate Buddhist temples.
Your journey begins in Phnom Penh, where you’ll see the indelible Khmer Rouge memorial sites Tuol Sleng Museum and the Killing Fields. Today, you’ll also travel to the picturesque old capital of Phnom Udong, its beautifully-adorned temples nestled in greenery. In the evening, take a relaxing stroll along the Tonle Sap River to really get a feel for life in Phnom Penh. This city has a great selection of luxury hotels on offer - we recommend Raffles Hotel Le Royal.
Today you’ll spend time getting to know your host city. Browse a comprehensive collection of Khmer art at the National Museum of Cambodia, see the Royal Palace, get active with the Cambodian Living Arts organization’s dance classes and enjoy sundowners and cerebral chatter at the Foreign Correspondents Club. In the evening, return to your luxury Phnom Penh hotel.
The rural city of Battambang is a former trading hub for French, Thai and Khmer traders. Established in the 11th century, it’s replete with ancient temples, ruins and Khmer artifacts, as well as colonial French houses and, uniquely, statues of mythical beasts. In Battambang, you’ll have the chance to attend a Khmer boxing match (the origin of Muay Thai), visit centuries-old temples and enjoy the green countryside and fresh air aboard the “bamboo train”. Tonight, sleep in a four-poster bed in the charming 1930s French Colonial guesthouse, La Villa.
People come from around the world to visit the Angkor temple complex and on this luxury tour you have your own guide - a local archaeologist - to take you through the chambers of Angkor Thom and Bayon Temple. After exploring these architectural marvels, you can haggle with the locals at the old markets before checking into your luxury Siem Reap hotel. Amansara, Raffles, and the Park Hyatt are all great choices.
In the cool morning air, you’ll visit the 10th-century Banteay Srei temple, built to worship the Hindu God, Shiva. After that, visit an orphanage and be uplifted by the humanitarian work of NGOs. Today you’ll also get the chance to shop for a memento with a bespoke shopping trip at Artisans d’Angkor, a collective of skilled local artisans offering Khmer fine arts and crafts. In the evening, enjoy a sumptuous dinner at your five-star hotel, or see what local delicacies the streets of Siem Reap have to offer.
Finish your Cambodian journey with an unforgettable experience - watching the sun rise over Angkor Wat. After exploring this immense temple, buckle up for a thrilling helicopter tour offering a bird’s-eye view of the complex. For dinner on this final night, a special treat - a private meal at Angkor Athvea, a 12th-century Hindu temple just outside Siem Reap.
Set in an historic 1930s French colonial villa that has previously played host to both the Khmer Rouge and the Vietnamese army, La Villa is beautifully located on the riverbank in the centre of Battambang. Decorated with antique art deco furniture and photographs of the colonial era, La Villa is a real slice of history and offers seven charming guest rooms as well as a pool, bar and restaurant.

Is There a Relationship Between Hardiness and Burnout in Full-Time Staff Nurses Versus Per Diem Nurses?
Recent advances in technology and the focus on cost-effective care may subject nurses to increasing demands in their jobs. These demands can lead to an increased level of stress and burnout. The concept of hardiness has been linked to burnout in studies among various groups. Hardiness is a set of personality characteristics that may function as a resource in coping with stress. This study examined the relationship between hardiness and burnout in full-time staff nurses and per diem nurses. The Neuman systems model served as a theoretical framework for the concepts of hardiness and burnout. A descriptive correlational design was used to assess these relationships. Seventy-five nurses in two area hospitals were surveyed using the Staff Burnout Scale for Health Professionals, the Cognitive Hardiness Scale, and a socio-demographic questionnaire. Data were tested using Pearson’s r correlation and t-tests. The Hypotheses: 1 ) Per diem nurses will have more hardiness than full-time staff nurses, and 2) Per diem nurses will have less burnout than full-time staff nurses were not supported. A moderately strong, direct, statistically significant relationship was found between hardiness and burnout among the total subjects. No significant differences were found between per diem nurses and full-time staff nurses. Demographic variables had no significant relationship with hardiness or burnout. Implications of the study include further investigation into the concept of hardiness. A universal definition of hardiness, and new ways of measuring hardiness is needed in order to utilize interventions based on one’s level of hardiness and burnout.

Nursing homes, whether called skilled nursing Homes, residential care homes, or assisted living centers, now rival restaurant chains as a growing presence on the American landscape. The increase in the number of facilities reflects the number of Americans needing some kind of long-term care. Approximately 1.6 million Americans live in nursing homes today, and nearly half of all Americans will eventually become residents of a facility.
We have handled several cases of nursing home or assisted living abuse and it is always tragic. Federal and state laws require that a nursing home have an adequate number of qualified staff and that each resident’s specific needs are met. Under the Federal Nursing Home Reform Act, it is a nursing home’s obligation to provide services and activities to attain or maintain the highest practical physical, mental and psychosocial well-being of each resident.
There are three levels of care facilities in Oregon, each governed by a different set of regulations: skilled nursing facilities, residential care facilities, and assisted living facilities. You should determine what level of care is needed for the intended resident.
Visit your local Seniors and People with Disabilities office. The office should have a file of annual surveys of each facility, with its written evaluation of the facility. The office should also have a file of all complaints filed against the facility.
Review the nursing home’s compliance with state and federal regulations on the Medicare website.
Seek the advice of knowledgeable physicians, nurses, physical therapists, and friends.
Consider the preferences and personality of the person to reside in the facility.
Unfortunately, neglect and abuse of nursing home residents is all too common. In 2001, a Congressional committee found that one in three U.S. nursing homes had been cited for abuse over a two-year period. In Oregon, there is a backlog of over a thousand complaints against nursing homes. Many of these complaints, once investigated by the State, are likely to reveal neglect, failure to follow safety procedures, medication errors, failure to protect residents from other violent or sexually predatory residents, and abuse.
Physical abuse sometimes involves situations where a nursing home resident is intentionally harmed by an employee or staff member or by another resident. Physical abuse can also include neglect, such as pressure sore formation, failing to prevent falls, medication errors, failing to monitor dangerous residents, malnutrition, dehydration, and infections. Without sufficient staffing, residents may wander away from the facility and suffer injury or death.
Also, the resident’s general care physician should be alerted. If immediate care is needed, the resident should be taken to the closest emergency room. The nursing home should prepare an incident report regarding any injury or incident and include statements from witnesses, an evaluation of the cause of the injury or incident and, if appropriate, a plan to avoid such an injury or incident in the future.
You should also report any suspected abuse or neglect to the local branch office of the State of Oregon’s Seniors and People with Disabilities Department. An investigator should be assigned to the case and should interview all relevant witnesses to determine whether any wrongdoing occurred.
Prosecuting nursing home abuse and neglect cases is important work. We respect that we are representing an extremely vulnerable person who needs help. Such claims also help to improve nursing home care.
The Elder Abuse Act, Oregon Revised Statute 124.100, permits an elderly person or that person’s representative to bring a civil action against the person directly responsible for the physical or fiduciary abuse of the elderly person and any person who permitted the abuse to occur. If successful, the elderly person is awarded fees for both their attorney and guardian in addition to the verdict.
fraud or undue influence to gain control of or obtain money or property.
prevent abuse to its residents.
Also, if the resident dies as a result of negligent or abusive care, or if a wrongfully injured resident later dies for reasons unrelated to the care, a personal representative of the deceased resident may bring a court case against the nursing home. If successful, they may collect attorney fees in addition to the damages assessed.
A breach of contract claim is sometimes warranted. Money was paid to the facility to provide a certain quality of care. The admission agreement may contain promises about the type and quality of services the nursing home agreed to provide in exchange for a fee. If such service was not provided, the resident or his or her representative may be entitled to a full or partial refund of such monies. Other breach of contract cases, and sometimes fraud cases, arise from mismanagement of a resident’s assets or billing for services that were not provided.
This agency is charged with licensing all nursing home facilities, the investigation of all complaints regarding nursing homes, and the development of all regulations governing nursing homes.
This agency protects the public by developing and enforcing standards for individuals to receive and retain a license as an Oregon nursing home administrator.
This agency’s mission is to improve the level of care of each resident living in a long-term care facility. Trained volunteers visit the nursing homes to carry out this mission. However, there may be no ombudsman assigned to a particular facility.

Jon Hamm is reportedly keen to become the next Batman in the DC Extended Universe.
Jon Hamm is reportedly ''desperate'' to takeover from Ben Affleck as Batman in the DC Extended Universe.
An insider told Radar Online: ''This is business for Jon - not personal.
''(Ben and Jon) enjoyed working together and have been on good terms since.
Yesterday (08.12.17), Affleck admitted he doesn't know if he will continue playing the superhero.
The 45-year-old actor has starred as Batman in two films so far, 'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice' and the upcoming 'Justice League' and also cameoed in both 'Suicide Squad' and 'Wonder Woman', but is non-the-wiser what the future holds for his character.
Affleck will be seen once again as Batman alongside Gal Gadot (Wonder Woman), Jason Momoa (Aquaman), Ezra Miller (The Flash), Ray Fisher (Cyborg) and Henry Cavill (Superman) in ensemble superhero movie 'Justice League' which hits cinemas this month.
Affleck is also due to be Bruce Wayne and his heroic alter ego in 'Justice League 2' and the standalone Batman movie planned by Warner Bros. Pictures, which is being directed by Matt Reeves from a script co-written by Affleck.
Recently, Miller admitted he would love to see Jeffrey Dean Morgan be Batman in 'Flashpoint'.
The 25-year-old actor is set to get his own standalone film as the speedy superhero, which if it follows the comic storyline of the same name, will explore an alternate universe for the famous characters.
'Flashpoint' involves Barry Allen aka The Flash travelling back in time and saving his mother's life, creating a radical new reality where the Justice League never formed.
With the new reality, heroes and villains have swapped places, while characters like Aquaman and Wonder Woman have become competing warlords and Batman's father Thomas Wayne takes on a very different version of The Dark Knight.

I'm a renaissance educator so I thankfully teach mainly in self-contained. Over the years I have asked my students which subject I teach best when I thought I'd have to specialize. There has never been any real difference across the subjects. In keeping with that, I work on my professional development across the curriculum.
Renaissance. I think that everything in the world is connected and so teachers should have a broad range of interests and knowledge.
Well. I should probably say that I am over 50, and hate being pigeonholed. In fact, as a 30-year teacher, I assume I'm good at many things simply because I've been forc--umm, encouraged to do them, without training. Things like, say, mentoring new teachers. Or writing a blog. Or building virtual communities, developing interdisciplinary content, and standards-based instruction. BTW, S-Goddess, I also have a masters degree in Gifted Education.
Perhaps those of us over 50 have decided that we only (cough) have so many years left, and want to spend them doing our favorite things, not presenting workshops to youthful ingrates.
I believe it has more to do with generational job market expectations. Younger workers have experienced a career market that shows no expectation of providing employment for any second longer than is profitable and that tends to view "experience" as something suspicious and costly. Skill sets that allow for flexibility to be placed in any job are more valued by younger workers because it translates to better job security.
Put me down for Renaissance, with a specialite. What good is a narrow range of expertise without a broad range of knowledge and experience to temper that narrow range?
For the record, I'm 64 and not close to quitting education.

Walden University offers several specializations in Psychology, including Clinical Psychology, Health Psychology, Organizational Psychology, Psychology Education, and Psychology Research. The curriculums follow a scholar/practitioner approach that integrates scholarly research with practical experience. The programs include fieldwork and faculty mentoring, along with a dynamic learning environment.
The University of the Rockies offers several Psychology doctorate programs, including the Psy.D. in Business Psychology, Psy.D. in Executive Coaching, Psy.D. in International Leadership, Psy.D. in Non-Profit Management, Psy.D. in Organizational Diversity, and Psy.D. in Organizational Leadership. These programs focus on applying comprehensive principles and theories towards every day problems.
At Argosy, students interested in applied learning have the opportunity to enroll in the Doctor of Education in Counseling Psychology program. The curriculum features courses that focus on the application of research analytics towards the counseling field. This program usually takes three to four years to complete.
The Doctor of Psychology degree, abbreviated as PsyD, is a professional doctorate degree, much like an M.D. for doctors or a J.D. for lawyers. Students in PsyD programs are trained to become clinical psychologists who treat mental disorders and provide psychotherapy. This degree was established in the 1970s after widespread debate over whether a PhD in psychology adequately prepared students for clinical practice. All PsyD programs must be accredited by the American Psychological Association (APA).
What are the Admissions Requirements for PsyD Programs?
Anyone applying to a PsyD program should have a at least a bachelor’s degree or equivalent in a relevant area such as psychology, biology, or sociology. Most programs also expect candidates to have professional work experience related to psychology, especially clinical work. They should have a strong interest in clinical psychology with a plan to practice after receiving the degree. Other admissions requirements include a personal statement, multiple letters of recommendation, a resume, college transcripts, results from a standardized test such as the GRE, and a completed application. After submitting an application, candidates may also have one or more interviews with the program’s admissions committee. Competitive programs will look for high academic performance, professionalism, and integrity in candidates.
What Courses Will I Take in a PsyD Program?
The majority of courses in a PsyD program will be aimed at training students to perform clinical psychotherapy. Classes will cover topics such as the theories of clinical psychology, types of psychological assessments, ethics, and various practicum experiences. Students will usually be required to write a dissertation at the end of the program.
How Long Does it take to Complete a PsyD Program?
The majority of PsyD programs take between four to seven years to complete, due to the extensive amount they must learn and the practical experience involved. After earning a PsyD degree, graduates must complete two years of a supervised internship before they can take licensing exams, although one of those years can be waived if the student has had a prior internship.
What Kind of Financial Aid Exists for PsyD Programs?
Unlike a Ph.D. in Psychology, a PsyD degree program does not usually offer the same kinds of grants and scholarships for research. This is because the program is a professional doctorate degree rather than a research-based one. However, other options exist to help students fund their educations. Some PsyD programs may offer fellowships to students who work as Graduate Assistants at the university, however these fellowships are usually quite competitive. Scholarships may also be awarded by the university to students based on merit or need. Another financial aid option is through federal loans, which students can apply for through their university’s financial aid department. Keep in mind that loans must be paid back once the program is finished.
What Kind of Career Can You Have With a PsyD Degree?
Students usually enter PsyD programs because they plan on practicing clinical psychology. After completing a clinical internship and passing the licensing exams, an individual with a PsyD degree can diagnose and treat mental disorders with the help of various assessments and psychotherapy services. Clinical psychologists work in a number of settings, including hospitals, mental health clinics, schools, government offices, or private practices.
While the traditional doctorate degree, the PhD, has existed since the study of psychology was founded, the PsyD degree has only existed since the 1970s. However, both are doctoral degrees in psychology. So how do the programs differ?
Focus – One of the main differences between the two degrees is their focus. Like other doctorate degrees, the PhD in Psychology emphasizes research, although many students who receive PhD degrees go on to practice rather than perform research after they graduate. On the other hand, the PsyD program was created specifically to train students of psychology for applied work in therapy, just as a J.D. program trains lawyers to practice law.
As a result, the curriculum of a PsyD program teaches students about therapy techniques and gives them opportunities for supervised practicum experiences. PsyD students will be familiar with research methodology and analyzing findings in order to apply them to their work. Students who want a career performing therapy will probably want to consider a PsyD program.
On the other hand, a PhD program in psychology will be heavily research-based. Students will learn how to understand research and apply it in practice, but most of the curriculum will involve actually performing research. PhD programs in psychology may vary on how much or little they teach students about practice, since the emphasis is on producing knowledge rather than applying it to therapy. Students who want a career in research or academia should consider a PhD program.
Length of Study – Another important thing to consider is the amount of time each program takes to complete. Since PhD programs are research-based, they generally take longer to complete that PsyD programs. Both programs will require students to have a certain amount of coursework and practice, along with a dissertation. The main difference is that a PsyD dissertation may focus on theories or case studies, while a PhD dissertation will require a significant amount of scientific research.
Funding – An advantage to pursuing a research-based program such as a PhD in psychology is that PhD candidates generally receive more funding than those in PsyD programs. Many PhD programs offer research grants for students to work alongside faculty members for a stipend. Since PsyD programs are more focused on applied training, they do not have the same funding opportunities. However, PsyD students may have the possibility of being awarded a teaching fellowship to fund part of their education.
Baylor is a private Christian university and is the oldest university in Texas. Baylor established its PsyD program in 1971, making it the second in the U.S. and the program with the longest history of accreditation from the American Psychological Association (APA). It has ranked in U.S. News’ list of top 100 clinical psychology programs in 2001 and 2005. The program spans four years of intensive training along with a year-long internship. The curriculum covers the core theories of clinical psychology, community practicum experience, research experience and a research-based dissertation.
Rutgers University is comprised of three campuses that began as separate colleges and universities. It is the eighth oldest college in the U.S. and is now the State University of New Jersey. Rutgers offers two PsyD. programs, one in clinical psychology and another in school psychology, along with concentration options in community or multicultural studies. All PsyD. programs at Rutgers emphasize practicum experience within the community.
Like other PsyD. programs, the program at University of Indianapolis stresses a scholar-practitioner model. The program takes four years to complete with an additional year of internship, but it may be completed in three years if students have previous postgraduate and clinical experience in a related area. Students have the option to choose one of three concentrations: Health Psychology and Behavioral Medicine, Childhood and Adolescent, or Adult Psychopathology and Psychotherapy.
This private university hosts the nation’s oldest PsyD program, which moved to Widener from Hahnemann University. Students take courses for three years, then fulfill internship requirements in their fourth and fifth years while continuing full-time classes. Widener offers several concentrations, called “curriculum clusters,” to PsyD. students, including psychological therapy fields such as cognitive-behavioral, cross-cultural, family, forensic, group, health, organizational, and psychoanalytic psychology.
This private university has a Roman Catholic Jesuit affiliation and has ranked highly in a variety of college reviews. Loyola’s PsyD program is especially service-oriented so that graduates are prepared for a career in mental health services. Like many PsyD. programs, it lasts four years with an additional year in a clinical internship. The program trains students based on six goals with additional objectives; these goals cover areas including demeanor, intervention, assessment, supervision, consultation, and research. Students must also fulfill a dissertation requirement.

Today Ben Curry interviewed Ray, a realtor from Illinois’s who has been on a roll recently listing FSBOs.
How he listed 5 homes that were FSBO.
The exact script he uses to give the book to the FSBOs.
How he is marketing himself.
His high conversions on these listings appointments and why he is getting them.
Ray: Have a $2,000 investment in you guys. But this one’s gonna be another $300,000 listing. The list side of it’s $10,000.
Smart Agents: It’s a little over three hundred?
Ray: What I’m getting at is now you’re talking about almost $40,000 of income just off your little book. Within a year’s time I have to spend two grand and I get $30,000 to $40,000 worth of income off of. I’ll take that deal all day long. I take my book with me on my listings, I will tell you that. It gives you credibility is what it does. Like I said, I listed three townhouses all in one neighborhood.
Smart Agents: Each was a different owner? Or all the same owner?
Ray: All different. Different owner.
Smart Agents: What did you do? How did you generate the leads? Or how do you know they want to sell?
Ray: The first one I got from the book.
Ray: I dropped it off. I handed it to her husband.
Smart Agents: Was it a FSBO?
Ray: It was a FSBO.
I just said, “Hey, I just listed the house down the street. I see you’re selling your property. I have a book on how to get the most amount of money for your home.” And he took it from me. Four or five months later his wife calls me and she says, “Hey”. She actually owned two townhouses but she was selling one of them. She actually knew a lot of people there. It was a group of townhouses, a subdivision. Actually she’s referred me out to four people already. Five people.
Ray: I actually have another guy’s townhouse I have to sell. He just isn’t ready yet. He has tenants in there. I was supposed to have it listed already, so I’m gonna list that probably in about two or three weeks. That’s from one person, but I have to attribute that to the book, because without doing that I never would have talked to that lady.
Smart Agents: Do you think the book made them more likely to refer you to the other people?
Ray: Without a doubt. Actually this lady, she just moved to Florida.
Ray: I’m upset she moved because she’s one of those people that refers you out.
Smart Agents: What was it that you said when you knocked on the door? How did you put it? Because you put it so well.
Ray: Yeah. I handed it to him.
Smart Agents: There you go. And you didn’t say, “I wrote the book. I’m so smart.” Just, here’s a book, I’m here to help you out.
Smart Agents: Now whenever you’re driving around and you see a FSBO you just stop and knock on the door? See if you can give it to them or you just leave it at the door?
I’ve left at the door with the plastic bag with the letters before. I’ve sent them out. I think this is where the one I just got, she came from that lead gen off of a Facebook ad. A paid ad that I was doing. And I probably just looked. I’ll look and see where the property is and if it’s in the price range in the area that I would like to target, then I’ll send them the book.
Smart Agents: You’ll mail a copy to them.
Ray: Yeah. I send it to them. Now actually, the size of them is nice, you can throw it in an envelope for like a buck.
Smart Agents: Mm-hmm (affirmative)- that’s true. So you’ve got four listings off of that one FSBO who referred you. Have you gotten any of the listings from the book besides those four listings?
Ray: That’s one, two, three, four. I’ll have one. We just haven’t done it. I’ve gotten a number of them off of when I bring the book with, but not any more than that directly tied to it.
Smart Agents: Okay. But do you feel you’ve probably gotten a better conversion on other listing appointments you had because you brought in the book and you gave it to them right at the beginning?
Ray: There’s no doubt about it.
Ray: Confidence. Like you said, it changes the whole dynamic of the appointment. I go through my listing presentation. But at one point I’ll say I have this book that I wrote, on how to prepare your home for sale and get the most amount of money for it.
Ray: They’ve already seen the book sitting there. It’s got my picture on it. They’re already looking at it like, what the heck is this?
Ray: It’s just sitting there.
Ray: I don’t say I’m an author. I don’t say anything like that. I just let them look at it.
Smart Agents: Okay. Let’s say we’re sitting there and all of a sudden I’m like, “Ray, what is that? Did you write that book?” What would you say to that?
Ray: I’d say yeah. It’s a great book that I wrote. It has all kinds of helpful information on how to get the most amount of money for your home. And sell it quickly. That’s what they want.
Smart Agents: Yeah. That’s true.
Ray: They want the most amount of money and they want to sell it quickly.
Ray: To get ready for sale. What kind of clutter and so on and so forth.
Smart Agents: Yeah. We went back to that one thing. I’ve talked about this myself and I have seen it happen myself where they keep the book and they mark it up. Who was the seller who had the book and she marked it up? Was that the FSBO? The first one?
Ray: The first ones. I gave it to her husband and she’s about sixty-five years old.
Ray: Very smart. She’s an engineer.
Ray: Great lady. And she referred me out. She referred me to this one guy. And she said, “You better go get Patrick, he’s moving to Florida, and you better go get him.” And I called him up and he says, “Hey, I got an appointment with so-and-so tomorrow.” Now, so-and-so is this realtor in town, that approximately half a mile from their house, from Patrick’s house, is a billboard with him and his beautiful wife on there saying the nine gazillion homes that they’ve sold.
Ray: Of all things, you want to set the appointment. I got the appointment. He said, “You can come here at 06:30.” I said, “all right”. I went there at 06:30. I go there. I can tell he’s packing up. He’s getting ready to go. He’s really wanting to leave. I have the book with me. Of course, I have this book with me, right?
Ray: I tell him how much I think his home is worth. I told him I thought it was worth around $200,000. And our prices have been depressed up here, but they’re starting to pick up. He’s like, “Wow.” He goes, “I’ve got an appointment with Tony.” I said, “Listen, I will call and cancel that appointment for you.” I actually did that. The guy was not too happy.
Ray: From one referral from this other lady and I still hadn’t listed her house yet.
Smart Agents: So, when you go to this engineer’s house, you see the book and she’s read through it and she’s marked it. How did she mark it up? She highlighted it? Or underlined it? Or what?
Ray: She had highlighted it and she had markers in there.
Smart Agents: Oh my god.
Ray: Like the little tab.
Smart Agents: Get offended. Yeah, they get offended.
Ray: So we reject it, but say that first and I’m telling you it has helped to sell a number of homes that way. You guys give tons of value. It’s not just like…I can’t stand like the hype guys. They had a girl in my office. She was spending like a thousand dollars a month with him.
Smart Agents: Oh wow. On coaching or something else?
Ray: Yeah, it’s crazy. Oh it’s on coaching. I’m like, are you kidding me? Then she quit after five months. She goes, “I can’t afford this stuff.” You guys have great customer service, I know that. Actually, I did get another listing, now that you had me think of it, directly from the book that didn’t sell. I had it listed throughout the winter. It was the first one I got and I went there and she had the book too.
Smart Agents: They sold it with you or with someone else?
Smart Agents: Was that an expired or FSBO or what kind of lead was that listing?
Ray: That was just a…that was…I sent them that book after they went on one of my Facebook ads.
Ray: It was a Facebook ad and they’d never had it for sale yet.
Smart Agents: Okay. I see. Interesting. If you get the time, the virtual assistants in the Philippines, they’re real good at basic stuff. Here’s your script, here’s your leads, call the leads, send me any people that you talk to that want to sell. I know people could train them on how to do closings and follow-up with your listings and all that stuff. I’ve never done that. It’s not as leverage-able. It’s not as simple to do.
Ray: No, I wouldn’t want that.
Ray: Yeah, You’re only gonna keep a portion of that right?
Smart Agents: Yeah, yeah, yeah, of course. And I’m not gonna give out your contact information. Call me and I’m gonna send you an email and if you need help you just reply to the email and I’m here to help you out.

There’s a new bad guy in town in the form of William Tockman (the Clock King, as he’s dubbed by the Starling City media and DC Comics). He sends two minions into a major research corporation (surprisingly NOT Queen Consolidated) to pull off an extremely well-planned heist of the “skeleton key,” a code-breaking device that can magically hack into anything, up to and including bank vaults. One of the minions goes off-script, causing the heist to turn into a shoot-out that draws the attention of Quentin Lance, and therefore puts the whole shebang on the Arrow-team’s radar. Tockman is not happy about the operation’s end, and uses a minute hand to stab the bejeezus out of the offending henchman.
Meanwhile, Ollie is throwing a “Welcome Back” party for Sara at Casa de Queen. Laurel refuses to come, but Ollie calls her anyway, just in case. Papa Lance appreciates the gesture and takes the opportunity to apologize for pretty much everything he ever said back in season one. Quentin is called away to deal with the body of the aforementioned henchman, but not before he manages to have an uplifting, hand-holding moment with his ex-wife.
Sara and Ollie see Lance go, then head for the crime scene themselves. The body leads the team to figure out the Clock King’s next move, a bank robbery using the skeleton key. Felicity gives them the location, but Tockman is able to divide and conquer, hacking into their comm channel and sending a metro bus directly into the path of an oncoming train (which, if you think about it, is an impressive feat of timing more than anything else). Ollie stops the bus and Sara tracks down Tockman’s van. The bad guys get away, but Sara manages to get a blood sample. Sara’s analysis leads the gang to Tockman’s identity. Felicity can’t help but feel a little left out that the Amazing Sara is good with the science and tech as well as the fighting. Bless Digg for noticing.
Ollie tells Felicity to have Walter liquidate 800,000 shares of Queen Consolidated and place the cash in Ollie’s account in Starling National Bank as a trap for Tockman. (Oliver has evidently forgotten that he owns Queen Consolidated by the barest skin of his teeth, and that “liquidating” translates to “selling his shares.”) While that’s processing and Felicity is up to her elbows in scorched computer bits, Ollie is going to attend a Lance Family Dinner that Laurel has finally agreed to hold. It seems that Papa Lance thinks that he has a chance to reconcile with his wife now that all of the family is back together (or at least they will be once Laurel gets on the ball).
Dinner is super awkward. Dinah is already seeing someone in Central City and has no plans to move back or get back together with Quentin. Things go even more pear-shaped when Laurel wakes up enough to read Ollie and Sara’s body language and figures out that they’re together. Laurel pitches a fit, screams at everyone, then walks out, telling them to lock up when they leave. Ollie follows her out and finally, finally calls her on the carpet for her behavior. He basically tells her that she hasn’t taken responsibility for a single thing in six years that that he’s done helping her.
Sara and Ollie get back from the Dinner of Doom to find that Felicity has disappeared, leaving just Digg at the Arrow-cave. Before they can ponder too long, Felicity calls to tell them that Tockman has taken the bait at Starling National – a fact that she knows because she’s currently there and waiting for him. The rest of the Team Arrow gets there post haste. Tockman has one team physically breaking in while he remotely manipulates the gas mains from a nearby location. Ollie goes after the minions, while Diggle runs down to the basement to manually take care of the gas problem. Felicity is able to use Tockman’s signal to trace him, so she and Sara head in his direction. Felicity tackles Sara to the ground, saving her and taking a bullet to the shoulder. She uses Tockman’s own virus to make his cell phone explode in his pocket, knocking him out cold and effectively defeating the bad guy.
Back at the Arrow-cave, Sara sews up Felicity’s shoulder, giving her her first real scar, just like the rest of the team. Digg has had a little chat with Ollie about where Felicity’s head has been in regards to Sara’s joining the crew, so he tells her that she’s always going to be an irreplaceable part of the team. (Hush, it was an adorable moment).
Thea hires Sara as Verdant’s new bartender, a job she evidently had back in college. Laurel comes in not to drink, but to talk to Sara. It seems that Ollie’s talk actually got through to her. The two reconcile and hug it out before Laurel leaves to attend Quentin’s AA meeting.
Meanwhile, Thea has texted Ollie with a 911 request to come home. Nothing’s actually wrong. Thea just wanted Ollie to talk to Mo again. Mo, however, is in the middle of a meeting with someone that she wants Ollie to meet: Slade Wilson.
Okay, I admit it. I’m a sucker for the shy girl’s unrequited love trope. Call it a remnant of my awkward adolescence. What can I say? I read Mansfield Park many, many times. At any rate, Arrow likes to play this trope, and they play it extremely well. My props to Arrow for going down this road and not making Felicity whine about it, but rather pick herself up and keep going.
So can anyone tell me why we randomly got Sin’s backstory this episode? We haven’t seen her in a while and all she actually did this episode was hug Sara twice. How does that merit dedicating the entirety of the island flashback to her? Not that I don’t appreciate new information and all, but this just seemed out of place and somewhat jarring. Maybe she’ll be much more important in upcoming episodes.
Slade and Ollie have finally met in Starling City! What’s making Slade show his hand now?

West Worcestershire MP Harriett Baldwin has welcomed extra funding being offered to local councils to help rough sleepers to rebuild their lives.
The Government has allocated more than £200,000 to help local councils to provide vulnerable people across Worcestershire with the specialist support they need.
The money will be used to help rough sleepers into accommodation, increasing existing accommodation and providing new temporary accommodation, including night shelters and hostel spaces.
Malvern Hills and Wychavon District Councils have already appointed specialist staff to help people at risk from becoming homeless and the councils led a summit last month on local issues.
Harriett commented: “I offered my support to my two District Councils in January when they took specific actions to focus on the issue of local homelessness and rough sleeping and I wrote to the Communities Secretary asking for financial support.
“I am delighted to see these funds allocated to our local councils, which is part of a £46 million programme to reduce the numbers of people who are without permanent accommodation.
“I know from my own casework that there are often complex reasons why people end up sleeping rough and having spoken to local council officers, healthcare experts and the police, everyone agrees that a multi-agency approach is important to help these people.

KCPT’s Nick Haines, executive director of public affairs and Week in Review host, picks out the big stories of the week ahead and the interesting stories you may have missed.
In the last decade, the Kansas City Zoo has added a polar bear exhibit and a penguin attraction. Now zoo officials have set their sights on a destination aquarium featuring everything from sharks to jellyfish. The timeline calls for the saltwater aquarium to open in late 2021 or early 2022. It would be paid for through private donations and money from an existing zoo sales tax. But the city may be asked to contribute, too. A proposed resolution before the City Council would earmark $7 million from the recent voter approved bond election for capital improvement projects.
Prepare to empty your pockets and go through a metal detector if you’re headed into Westport this weekend. After barricades and checkpoints went up last week, the final layer of the entertainment district’s new security plan launches tonight. Westport released a 19-page list of prohibited items you can bring into the bar and nightclub area. It included a ban on glow sticks, stuffed animals, violins and wizard wands.
Bill Graves, the former Republican governor of Kansas, is creating a political stir as he declared he will endorse Democrat Laura Kelly in the fall election for Kansas governor. Last week, Steve Baccus, the chair of the Colyer for Governor campaign, announced he was supporting independent candidate Greg Orman over Republican Kris Kobach. This week, KCPT broadcasted the first Kansas gubernatorial debate. If you missed it, you can catch the rebroadcast Sunday, Sept. 9 at 10 am. Or watch anytime online.
As confirmation hearings continue for U.S. Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, Missouri Sen. Claire McCaskill is being closely watched by news organizations and political writers across the country. McCaskill is one of a few red-state Democrats whose vote could be critical to deciding whether Kavanaugh joins the nation’s highest court. But she has yet to announce how she’ll vote. McCaskill, who is locked in a close race for re-election, was one of a handful of Democrats in the Senate to meet with Kavanaugh before the hearings got underway.
A state of emergency has been declared in Manhattan, Kansas, after what local officials call a “500-year flash flooding event.” Nine inches of rain in 12 hours caused a creek to burst its banks and flood the Kansas college town. More than 300 people were forced to evacuate their homes, including some who were ferried to dry land in boats. Kansas State University’s main campus in Manhattan wasn’t flooded, but a help center has been set up for displaced students.
Seven years ago, UMKC was making local headlines as it announced plans to build a brand new downtown arts campus. It became one of the KC Chamber’s “Big 5 Ideas” for moving Kansas City forward. This week, Kansas City’s hometown university officially abandoned that quest. UMKC officials now say they plan to build a new conservatory for theater, music and dance on or close to its main campus. Last year, Missouri lawmakers approved up to $48 million in bonds to help finance the project, but the money was vetoed by then-Gov. Eric Greitens.
Last month, Kansas City, Missouri, voted to approve a new rental inspection program designed to protects tenants in unhealthy and dangerous homes. This week, the program begins. If Kansas City renters have a complaint about conditions in an apartment or house, they can call 3-1-1 or 816-513-6347. Renters can also take complaints into the Kansas City, Missouri, Health Department at 2400 Troost Ave. Officials say they will respond within 48 hours.
Nick Haines hosts KCPT’s primetime public affairs show, Week in Review. The show is on a hiatus this week, as KCPT is in a funding drive, but catch the next broadcast Friday, Sept. 14 at 7:30 p.m., and the rebroadcast Sunday at 11 a.m. on KCPT.

The Bishop England baseball team captured the Class AAA state championship last spring. This spring, the Bishops just might prove to be the best team in the state regardless of classification if the prestigious International Paper Baseball Classic is any indication.
The Bishops claimed the title of the Georgetown-based tournament Sunday with a 3-1 victory over Boiling Springs to complete a 4-0 effort that saw the Bishops outscore foes 28-10 in the four games.
“They play the game hard and have a ton of life and enthusiasm when they play,” Bishop England coach Mike Darnell said of his team.
Ryan Gaffney was the winning pitcher in the championship game, pitching a complete game and allowing only one run to be named the tourney MVP.
Geoffrey Gilbert, Leo Albano and Jacob Moore joined Gaffney on the all-tournament team. Gilbert, who has already committed to Clemson, struck out 10 batters in the 11-1 victory over Summerville in Saturday’s semifinal.
The Bishops had their bats working. Corey Cochran and Moore both batted .444. Albano hit .429 while Matthew Lobeck hit .417 and Gilbert .400. Albano also had a strong pitching effort with seven strikeouts in four innings.
The Class AAA state individual wrestling tournament was recently held at the Anderson Sports & Entertainment Center and Hanahan and Bishop England fared well. The Hawks finished in 11th place with 27 points while Bishop England was tied for 21st with 10 points.
Brooks Cribb and Kevy Bell of Hanahan both claimed bronze medals. Cribb finished third in the 152-pound weight class with a victory over Jaylon McCaslan of Emerald.
Bell claimed third in the 220-pound division with a decision over Kahvon Brown of Camden.
Bishop England’s Anthony Battista also claimed a bronze medal with a victory over Michael Freeman of Woodruff at 132 pounds.
The Hanahan Hawks softball team did it again. The Hawks won their fourth straight Battle of the Bases tournament, claiming the title game with an 8-3 victory over Cane Bay.
Drayton Siegling was named the tournament MVP while Rachel Shelly and Madeline Ferris were also named to the all-tournament team.
The Philip Simmons boys’ and girls’ track and field teams more than held their own in the first major meet in the school’s brief history.
The boys team finished in 10th place Saturday at the Adidas Lowcountry Invitational, which was contested at Woodland High School. The girls finished in 13th place.
The girls had a good showing with a seventh-place finish in the 4x100-meter relay.
The Hanahan boys and girls also competed in the meet and both teams finished in ninth place.
Meanwhile, the Bishop England girls’ and boys’ teams both finished in eighth place at the Sandlapper Classic Saturday at West Ashley High School.
Aidan Richter led the Bishop boys with a second-place finish in the 800-run with a time of 2:04.21. The 4x1,600-meter relay team also finished second while the distance medley team captured a bronze medal. Jacob Wilkins also collected a bronze in the discus.
In the girls’ meet, Bishop England’s Emma Albano picked up a bronze medal in the discus and was fourth in the shot put. The 4x400 relay team placed third while Patricia George was fourth in the 400-meter dash.

text: One of my favorite sounding rooms at SSI was the large suite featuring Verity Sarastro II speakers, the new Nagra 300B stereo amplifier that made its debut at the 2011 CES and a Nagra PLL preamp, with a Nagra CDP CD player and Nagra VI solid-state digital recorder being used for the front-end, all hooked up with Nordost Valhalla cables. The sound of a Jordi Savall ensemble performance of Vivaldi Oboe Concerto, played back on the Nagra VI with 24/48 resolution, was lifelike and easy on the ear, but without sounding either mellow or laidback. perhaps the sound was a little congested on the climaxes with larger-scale music, but this was one of the bigger rooms at the Hilton Bonaventure and the amplifier is limited to 20Wpc.

Crystal Palace welcome Brighton to Selhurst Park in the first Premier League match of the weekend - knowing they are essentially two wins from ensuring their status in the top division for another year.
The visitors can go level with on points with their rivals and Chris Hughton knows his team must get something from this game to ease their own relegation worries.
This fixture is known as the M23 derby and the reverse game saw one red card and five yellows dished out in a feisty encounter that Brighton won 3-1.
Roy Hodgson's side will want revenge for that loss last December, while Hughton can become the first Seagulls manager to secure the double over Palace since the 1983/84 season.
Check out 90min's preview ahead of the latest encounter between the sides.
Pape Souare remains out with an shoulder injury sustained in December 2018 while Mamadou Sakho and Connor Wickham are doubtful with knee and calf problems respectively.
Pascal Gross has a hamstring injury and has been ruled out for Brighton, otherwise they are at full strength as Leon Balogun has recovered from a knock.
Crystal Palace Hennessey; Wan-Bissaka, Dann, Tomkins, Van Aanholt; Milivojevic (c), McArthur, Meyer; Zaha, Batshuayi, Townsend.
Brighton Ryan; Montoya, Dunk (c), Duffy, Bernardo; Knockaert, Bissouma, Stephens, Propper, March; Andone.
Palace have lost just one of their last nine home meetings with the Seagulls in all competitions, having won six and drawn two.
There hasn't been an away win in this fixture since both sides were in the Championship, when Palace won 2-0 at the Amex in May 2013. Brighton have failed to win at Selhurst Park since 2005.
The sides played each other three times last season, winning one each and drawing the other. Overall, Brighton lead 38 wins to 35 with 25 stalemates between them.
Palace have won three out of their last five league games, only losing to a rampant Manchester United during that spell, and have pulled away from the relegation zone - they are now eight points clear of 18th placed Cardiff City.
They were impressive last time out, winning 3-1 at Burnley, and beat Leicester City 4-1 at the King Power Stadium two weeks earlier.
While their away form has been good, they haven't won at home since the beginning of last month and the fans will expect to win this match.
Last week's win at the Amex against Huddersfield was the Seagulls' first triumph in the Premier League this year. That victory moved them five points clear of the relegation zone but they'll still be looking over their shoulders if they don't pick up more points soon.
They may have won at home seven days ago but Brighton are without an away win since December and that form is a cause for concern for Hughton.
Brighton are woeful away from home while Palace have a spring in their step, so this should go only one way.

I spoke at my second BibleTech Conference in Seattle this past week, and it was an enjoyable time. I’m afraid I made the mistake of putting in three paper topics, assuming the organizers would pick one. They picked three. And I did a Q&A for Authorized. And I interviewed two Bible translator nerds for a new podcast, still under wraps. =) Busy time. Loved connecting with new people and having the chance to talk at leisure with coworkers. You should come—and put in a paper topic—next time.
Here are quick run-downs of the three talks I gave.
It was a true delight to announce at #BibleTech the official launch of KJVParallelBible.org, a tool for teaching textual criticism to English-speaking Christians. That same morning, the first of the conference, an accompanying article was released at the Evangelical Textual Criticism blog.
What are the most fruitful ways we as Bible software creators can tag Scripture for meaning and not just form, beyond the ones that have already been done?
What are the best ways we can make this tagging useful and accessible to those who should be searching for meaning in a Bible software world in which everyone is used to searching instead for forms?
I gave real-life examples from Logos, such as the recent need I had to find out how the KJV translators translated λέγω (lego, “I say”) when it is a historical present. Tagging for meaning (historical present) and not just form (historical present) is what enabled me to do this work.
In this session I was mainly tossing out examples and hoping that we together could come up with good ideas for the future. I was not disappointed. Participants (mostly but not only fellow Faithlifers!) did a great job with this.
I really poured time into this one, and the night before I gave it I had a fun talk with a group that included our CEO, Bob Pritchett. He said a number of things that stimulated me to do some rewriting. He’s super thoughtful, and quicker on his feet than nearly anyone else I know. Here’s an audio recording for my blog reader.
The sessions I enjoyed the most were those by Jen Miles and Stephen Smith, though others were of course great!
Stephen Smith was hilarious, and he categorized very helpfully the kinds of topics that people search for in the Bible. Fascinating (and a little scary). He works for Bible Gateway. He also told us about a super-cool project he’s working on, the Expanded Bible. This would be a fantastic tool for teaching people about the number of minor (and the few major) decisions that go into Bible translation.
And just think of the possibilities. Some day we’ll have LEB-Only people—LEBOs. I can’t wait.

Aldi has a 9' x 11' patio Pergola for $149 in stores.
We picked one up last year and it's very well built. Much sturdier than the 10' x 10' gazebos.
The shade is adjustable, as well as removable. You can secure the legs down with screws.
You gave thanks to Buckeyefan 1 for this post.
Buckeyefan 1 posted this deal. Say thanks!
Probably need to put "Aldi" in title subby.
Why is the link for a grocery store ad?
Sorry, but this is a pretty terrible post by a long time member.
They sell other things besides groceries. Did you look at the ad?
Yes and I sure didn't see a Pergola.
My bad, tried posting from a phone, and cannot edit. Updated post finally from laptop.
Does anyone know of this pergola is waterproof. ?
I purchased last year. While it does not leak - water fills up the fabric cover and ends up sagging each segment between ribs (side anchors ride up rails as rail falls allowing for the sags in fabric to occur). Friction cams locks the sides of fabric in place and weight of rain water let's them slide up. Need to get broom and empty after each rain. Built it by myself but really 2 persons needed when 2 sides go up. Really strong. Held through winds. Took fabric off over winter just put back up. It's big.

Thanks for you reply. Are you happy with this purchase?
Yes. Would get it again. Fabric still in excellent shape but very unique in how it zips on and off the side rails. Watching ALDI flyer they may have a replacement fabric in next week or two. I'll purchase just in case. They have done this for other fabric covers in past.
@braddster, thank you for the info. I am thinking about getting one of these. Is the cover quick/easy to remove (in case of storm coming)? Can the cover be pulled more to one side to get more shade when sun is lower in the sky? Is metal rusting much? Thanks in advance!
Yes and yes. 1 person can take it down in 2 min. Just unzip each side n pull it off from either side. I'm 6' tall and putting it back up takes longer. Can barely reach top of pergola so kinda throw one end over top and then start pulling over each "rung" then when get to other side flatten it out and zip up both ends. There are two cams on each side bar. Just release them and slide up or down (the fabric sides with zippers - these ride on side rails) and fabric adjusts immediately. Lock the cams and the adjustment is done. Takes longer to walk to other side then to make adjustment.
Fabric can only be adjusted the long way btw so set up accordingly. I leave fabric up all summer. As I posted earlier the rain collects on top of fabric between rungs. As volume/weight grows it slides the cams up on either side or both until water starts spilling out. Still holds a ton of water with each rain. Need to empty after it rains. I've left on vacation for a couple weeks n it's usually quite full but no disasters yet.
Long ways is left to right on OP picture above.

Regular meetings are scheduled for the Third Tuesday of each month beginning at 5:00 P.M.
A Governing Board is a legal entity for providing services to public education within a geographic area of the State of Ohio. The systems was created by, and is governed by, State statues. Members of a Boards are, therefore, State officers chosen by citizens to represent them and the State in the legislative management of the local schools.
The Governing Board has the dual responsibility for implementing statutory requirements pertaining to public education and for meeting the desires of the citizens. While the Board has an obligation to determine and asses citizen desires, it is understood that when the citizens elect delagates to represent them in the conduct of specified educational programs, they, at the same time, endow their representitives with the authority to exercise their best judgment in determining policies, making decisions, and approving procedures for carrying out our responsibility.
Maintain two-way communications with citizens of the Educational Service Center. The Board shall keep them informed of the progress and the problems of the Educational Service Center, and the concerns about the Center to the attention of this body.
Establish policies and make decisions on the basis of declared educational goals.
Act as a truly representative body for citizens in all matters related to the programs and operations. The Board recognizes that ultimate responsibility for public education rests with the State, but the Governing Board has been assigned specific authority through statute, and the Board shall not relinquish or fail to exercise that authority.
Recognize and value the concept of local control of school districts through the local boards of education.

I just finished Day 5 working out in a row and I feel fantastic! I can definitely see some progress in my movements, especially with the daily yoga stretch, and the mirror I added to my workout area has been incredibly helpful in keeping my form correct!
Pull Day B tomorrow and I'll take a rest day when I feel that my body needs it!
