Q: how to open files using intent action with latest Android storage framework? Since Android introduced major changes in storage framework recently much of the documentation talks about permissions and scoped storage. But I couldn't find details on how to process Uri of a file, for it to be readable by other apps.
The intent action to view/read a file by other apps fail. I don't understand what's the problem here;

*

*Does it have to do with difference between java.io.File and java.nio.File?

*The Uri has missing permissions or the Uri is not well formatted.

The Android storage samples (FileManager) has this bug as well. It lists all the files in a directory successfully but can't open a selected image, or a document. I've reported this issue but no help so far.
Following snippet is from FileManager (storage-samples)
fun openFile(activity: AppCompatActivity, selectedItem: File) {
    // Get URI and MIME type of file
    val uri = Uri.fromFile(selectedItem).normalizeScheme()
    val mime: String = getMimeType(uri.toString())

    // Open file with user selected app
    val intent = Intent()
    intent.action = Intent.ACTION_VIEW
    intent.data = uri
    intent.type = mime
    return activity.startActivity(intent)
}

A: After the hints from the comments, I found the answer in developer docs.

Caution: If you want to set both the URI and MIME type, don't call setData() and setType() because they each nullify the value of the other. Always use setDataAndType() to set both URI and MIME type.

The reason behind openFile didn't throw FileUriExposedException in android-storage-samples is that after setting intent.type, the Uri gets nullified and when I changed it to setDataAndType() I got the exception. The final snippet looks like
fun openFile(activity: AppCompatActivity, selectedItem: File) {
// Get URI and MIME type of file
val uri = FileProvider.getUriForFile(activity.applicationContext, AUTHORITY, selectedItem)
//    val uri = Uri.fromFile(selectedItem).normalizeScheme()
val mime: String = getMimeType(uri.toString())

// Open file with user selected app
    val intent = Intent()
    intent.action = Intent.ACTION_VIEW
    intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION)
//    intent.data = uri
//    intent.type = mime
    intent.setDataAndType(uri, mime)
    return activity.startActivity(intent)
}

I think they forgot to update the samples over time, let me create a pull request to commit this change over there as well.

Following one of my previous posts about slip-on sneakers, today I decided to share with you my outfit of the day. We went for a coffee with some friends so this is a very casual, simple and comfortable look. Hope you like it!
So basically I just put together a simple, comfortable and grey day outfit. Nothing that special but still I decided to share with you. I am so in love with these slip-on sneakers. My friend loved them too.
Can I just say: sorry about my hair! Was working in the morning with my hair in a ponytail and this was the best I could do with it.
I also love this bag so much. Pretty good when you go out shopping – your hands are free to hold every piece of cloths that you want to take with you.

Redmen want to rein in Stamps
Nanaimo's Vancouver Mainland Football League team starts playoffs Sunday (Nov. 20).
Nov. 17, 2011 6:00 a.m.
The regular season had its ups and downs for the Nanaimo Redmen. There were injuries, scoring slumps, wins and losses.
"When you're a good team, [you'll] often find a way to win when you haven't played your best and we didn't do that as well this year as we would have liked and as a result it cost us a couple of positions in the standings," said Sean Roden, coach of the Redmen. "But we're all starting from scratch here now."
The Redmen (7-3) did enough to earn a first-round bye in the Vancouver Mainland Football League playoffs. Now, that bye week is behind them and they're ready to face the Langley Stampeders (8-3) on Sunday (Nov. 20).
The coach said dealing with adversity this fall means the Redmen are a battle-tested squad.
They've won and lost battles since they defeated the Stamps 21-7 way back in Week 1.
"We were a better team then and we've both changed, but we believe we're the better team now, too," said Jordan Pugh, Redmen safety.
Nanaimo and Langley have similar-looking personnel and playbooks, said Roden.
"I think we match up well against them but I think that they probably think they match up well against us, too," he said. "We both play smashmouth football, nothing really flashy from either team. So it's going to be won in the trenches, for sure."
Especially in playoff-football conditions in the north end. The red team hopes it can pound the ball better than a Stamps team used to the firm footing of a turf field.
"They're not used to getting down in the muck as much as we are and with the weather, we're supposed to have some pretty good rain and maybe even snow," Roden said. "I'm looking forward to that, actually."
GAME ON … Sunday's kickoff is slated for 2 p.m. at May Richards Bennett Pioneer Park. Admission is free.

1996 saw the lowest number of unofficial strikes in the 1990s
According to the yearly wage statistics from the Danish Employers'
Confederation (DA), 1996 was the most conflict-free year for the private
sector labour market in the 1990s. From 1995 to 1996, the number of
unofficial strikes - defined as those in contravention of a collective
agreement - fell from 1,740 to 791 and the number of working days lost
decreased by 70% to 52,808 in 1996. Although there was an overall decrease in
working days lost, the proportion of working days lost due to wage
disagreements increased from 45% to 52% and conflicts related to redundancies
and dismissals increased from 5% to 13%. Between 1995 and 1996 secondary
action fell drastically, from 34% to 9% of the total number of working days
lost. This can be attributed to the 1995 bus conflict ("RiBus-konflikten"),
one of the longest disputes in post-war Danish industrial relations.
Police follow nurses' example and seek special commission
A protest march on the Dail by rank-and-file members of the Irish police
force, the Garda Siochana, was due to take place on 16 April to highlight
their demand for the first independent review of police pay since 1981.
Akzo Nobel abandons a standard 36-hour week
Akzo Nobel has announced that it will not observe its 1995 collective
agreement and that it will abandon the introduction of a standard 36-hour
week as of 1 July 1997. Its new proposals have divided the unions.
Commission underlines the role of the social partners in fighting racism
Over the past decade there has been increasing concern among the institutions
of the European Union about the rising tide of racism across the member
states. In a recent address to a conference on combating racism organised by
the ETUC, social affairs commissioner Padraig Flynn highlighted the
importance of the fight against racism in "achieving improved working
conditions, creating jobs, improved industrial relations, the use of human
resources to the best possible effect, social justice, equal opportunities,
wealth and tolerance".
The closure of Renault-Vilvoorde
On Thursday 27 February 1997 Renault announced - completely unexpectedly -
the closure of its Belgian production plant in Vilvoorde by July of this
year. As a result, more than 3,000 Renault employees and an estimated 1,500
employees in direct supply companies will lose their jobs. There is a general
consensus that the decision ignored all legal rules and procedures concerning
factory closures. This includes ILO and OECD procedures as well as national
codes of conduct, and European Union and national legislation on collective
redundancies and works council rights. These regulations lay down that
employees have to be notified before a decision about a factory closure is
made and informed about the ways in which the company plans to deal with the
consequences for the employees.

Employer and union leaders in commerce urge a three year "stabilisation pact"
On 13 March 1997, the readers of Sweden's leading morning paper /Dagens

chair of Handelsanställdas förbund (Commercial Employees' Union), the
leaders of the two employers' organisations in commerce and the managing
directors of three leading retail chains.
The use of "hardship clauses" in the east German metalworking industry
Since the beginning of the 1990s, the German system of centralised sectoral
collective bargaining (Flächentarifvertrag), which guarantees all employees
in a certain sector more or less the same basic income and working
conditions, has been under increasing pressure. With growing
internationalisation of capital and markets and an increasing pressure of
international competition, more and more employers and economic experts have
been demanding a more decentralised and company-related collective bargaining
system. German unification in 1990 brought a further dynamism to the debate.
Originally, all the relevant social partners agreed to transfer the western
collective bargaining system to eastern Germany, but because of the
continuing immense economic problems. more and more eastern employers became
dissatisfied with that decision. For instance, in the eastern metal industry
the proportion of employers who are members of an employers' association
decreased from 60% in 1991 to 36% in 1994 - though still covering between 55%
and 65% of the employees ("Ostdeutsche Tariflandschaften", Ingrid Artus and
Rudi Schmidt, in Die Mitbestimmung No. 11, p. 34-36 (1996)).

Five Worst Valorant Habits You Need to Break
By Will HarrisonOctober 27, 2020
Hey, you. Yes, you--the Valorant player reading this right now. Stop it. Just… Stop. You know what you did, and you're going to keep doing it until someone points it out and you're haunted by your actions every waking moment.
Or at least until that next Ranked loss. Have no fear, we're here to help you out and point out the small things that all Valorant players do every once in a while. These can either be a small hiccup or turn into a recurring bad habit that you're doomed to repeat until the end of time.
Let's take a look at the five worst Valorant habits that you need to break immediately.
Spray And/Or Pray
There's a kind of panic that sets in when two opposing players lock eyes from across a crowded battlefield and decide that it must end there and now. Suddenly, both players unload every ounce of ammunition in their weapon and take on a real "let god sort them out" kind of mentality. And I'm here to tell you: It's bad.
One of the biggest things you can do to improve in any game, but especially Valorant, is stay alive. Do yourself a favor and don't get into a battle of wills where you and your opponent have both decided to stubbornly commit to a fight or die trying. Not only are you letting the other players know exactly where you are and what you're doing, you're also taking unnecessary damage and risk.
Don't pray and spray, just run away.
Abilities (Do Not) Get Kills
There are exceptions to this rule, but for the most part, Valorant is a game about guns, not Agent abilities. This rule applies less to Duelists than most, but in a panic, I'll tell this to a Raze main as much as I will a Cypher: stop trying to use your abilities in panic situations to secure the kill when your gun is far more reliable. There will be plenty of moments where you and an enemy both round the same corner, walk right into each other, and start firing off abilities and hoping something lands.
Stay calm and remember that you have a gun; otherwise, you're not only wasting round utility but you're also costing yourself economy in the form of re-purchasing ability uses. Once again, the best thing you can do for your team is not die, and this includes not dying while using every ability you purchased at the start of the round.
Going All In
There's a real risk-reward system at work with the economy of Valorant. Entire books could be written about the game's purchasing system, credit flow, and when's the best time to go for the big guns. However, there's also fallacy at work: Having a bigger gun doesn't always mean you'll win the day, nor does having that big gun earlier than the other team. Far too often players will race to get that round 4 Operator, only to immediately die and wreck their economy for the proceeding rounds. This doesn't mean that you should never go for the big buy, but get a feel for the pace of any individual game and ask if having an Odin is really the best fit for any particular round.
Rambo Isn't Home Right Now
Valorant is a team game. I know that sounds obvious but I think, on occasion, some of y'all need a friendly reminder. Moreover, unless you're a member of Sentinels or something you're most likely not going to be the big playmaker who runs onto a point, gets the Ace, and plants all within the span of twenty seconds. Playing carefully and conservatively in Valorant always provides an advantage over being the first to run through Hookah, only to get donked in the head. Stay in communication with your team and actually talk about round-to-round strategy. Go play deathmatch if you really can't quell that urge to be Leeroy Jenkins and ruin everyone else's time.
Show A Little Self-Care
The biggest habit that all players of competitive games have, and maybe the hardest to break, is that they're all too hard on themselves. Life is about mistakes and learning from them, not making a mistake and then ruminating on it for the next hour. And this isn't to say "Hey, don't take your mistakes seriously because none of this matters." But far too often players allow their worst mistakes to hang around too long, and that's what leads those mistakes to turn into bad habits. The best thing you can do to improve in Valorant is learning to give yourself a break, accepting that not all matches are going to go your way, and that there's a learning experience around every corner.
Everyone messes up. Even the professionals. What you do after you mess up is what separates the different classes of players.

Listing Bits: 'Too many crappy agents,' the biggest issue in real estate
Whose job is it to set and uphold certain industry standards? Rob Hahn and Greg Robertson hash it out
Reposted from Vendor Alley with permission from Greg Robertson.
"The No. 1 problem of the industry is that we have too many crappy agents," Rob Hahn tells Vendor Alley's Greg Robertson in the fourth episode of Listing Bits. "Bottom line, the problem is we have far too many people helping consumers buy and sell real estate who have no business helping people buy and sell real estate."
//webassets.inman.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/04-Raising-Standards-in-Real-Estate.mp3
So that's the problem — what's the solution? Robertson questions, who's to say on paper, who's going to be successful and who's not? Who gets to be that panel?
Hahn lays out his take: Look to Realtors, and specifically, re-read the National Association of Realtors' preamble to the Code of Ethics.
"Who gets to decide, to me, are Realtors. Not real estate agents, not licensees, not you and me but it's Realtors," Hahn says.

Apologies for the radio silence lately – I've not dropped the ball or decided to embrace 'Parched March' or whatever abstinence-based month of booze-free charity has been dreamed up recently. Instead, I've been studying hard for (and last Monday, sitting) my Certified Cicerone® exam. As you may know, BrewDog encourage their staff to have a crack at any and all levels of the Cicerone scheme, gaining beery knowledge along the way that will help them in their careers. Now for someone like me who had already filled up some of the old precious grey matter with beer-based info already, how was it, to learn and then sit the Cicerone exam?
Well, as you can imagine you realise pretty quickly exactly what your level of knowledge really is. For someone like me, 'who writes about the people' involved in brewing (aka we have little real idea of how it all works) it meant I needed to brush up on the mechanics and even the basics pretty quickly. So hopefully as a result the next brewery I end up bumbling around I will be able to do more than point and make hopeful statements like "So…is that where the hot water's at?".
The written part of the exam was pretty comprehensive, with 160 questions and three essays in three hours but it was the tasting part that was really interesting. I've done an off-flavour tasting before, so knew vaguely what to expect – but it always surprises me how quickly you can train yourself to recognise something you hardly ever smell or taste. In preparation for the off-flavour tasting we had done a couple of test runs over the last few weeks, and each time I was struggling to pick out the green apples of Acetaldehyde and the corny tang of DMS. And yet in the exam, the hesitant initial sniff of the first tainted cup and it smells like the Jolly Green Giant's loincloth. Corn City. The human nose is an amazing thing (which I guess is why we punish it from time to time).
Anyway, having to differentiate between beer styles (untainted from thereon) was also really interesting. I mean, I've judged beer in the past, and often head to new brewery launches or whatever where you are actively trying to critique a beer, but this was very different. A simple small cup and two potential styles to choose from. Now, you can try this at home if you have someone willing to do the pouring and make it a blind test, but when the cup is in front of you it instantly puts you back to square one. I've always been pretty good at appending random flavours to the first sip of a beer – "oh wow, yeah you really get the blackberries/chillies/avocado" – but a simple 'A or B' question and you actually have to quantify all of this airy fairy language into why the beers taste like this, and what that actually means they are. It was really interesting.
Am I right in thinking that in the Certified Cicerone program, the food pairing only plays a minor role, seeing it only counts towards 10% of the grade, and you didn't even mention it in the above text?
Seems to be more what I'm looking for than the Belgian options currently available!

Not to mention the amazing taste will give you the invincible morning you need to start your day. Make your updgrade from bulletproof coffee today.
I'm so glad to have discovered Crio Bru ... it's the best. I hardly ever drink coffee anymore because Crio Bru has so much more flavour and so much less of the bad stuff.
I'm totally hooked on this stuff. I'm very sensitive to caffeine, and the boost I get from this is totally different. It makes me happier and more energetic, but not to the point of anxiety. It's a softer, smarter, safer version of a pick-me-up. And the flavor...it's so delicious. I add a pinch of salt, sometimes monk fruit powder, and sometimes vanilla or cinnamon. And unlike coffee, this doesn't give me heartburn. Dunno what I'd do if this product disappeared!
Add ½ cup of Crio Bru to 34oz French Press. Add boiling water. Steep for 10 minutes. Stir occasionally.
Stir one last time. Depress plunger.
Pour & Enjoy. If desired, add creamer, almond, soy or coconut milk and your favorite sweetener.

Available thicknesses: 2 ½""----2 7/8"
Appropriate volume with easy paddling allows early entry into the wave to avoid late takeoffs. These boards can be surfed either from further forward for longer turns, or off the tail enabling quick directional changes as necessary. Bottom shape is a soft single concave in the middle fading into a soft Vee under the back foot. The bottom concave allows the board to be ridden high in the wave to enable maximum speed whilst the Vee and subtle rocker (bottom curve) keeps the board nice and loose for optimum positioning.
A Semi-Gun is a specialized surfboard designed for larger than average waves…….say in the 6'-10' or double overhead plus range. Depending on location, bigger waves are usually faster moving, more powerful and more hollow than smaller waves. Bigger waves could accurately be termed waves of consequence since the effects of any mistakes made whilst surfing them are significantly magnified when compared with those occurring in smaller waves. Particularly when reef breaks are involved, failure to successfully negotiate large waves can result in serious injury.
It follows then that surfboards designed for larger surf must successfully address the issues of wave size, power and shape. If this is done correctly, the surfer will be able to confidently deal with whatever comes his/her way.
Large waves have typically traveled from storm centers a long way away and are faster moving as they approach the break than smaller waves. Therefore a Semi-Gun needs to paddle very efficiently to allow early entry into the wave, and to be of a length proportionate to wave size. Volume and length are the main variables of interest here.
Large waves naturally have more power than small waves. Therefore a Semi-Gun ridden in large surf will be propelled much faster than a surfboard being surfed in small waves. Consequently the board needs to contain design attributes to allow the surfer to maintain control at high speeds. The primary variable concerned here is rocker.
For a number of reasons large waves are usually steeper and more hollow than smaller waves. Again the Semi-Gun needs to be able to accommodate these conditions and ensure that the surfer has control. Primarily this entails narrower planshape dimensions and adjustments to rocker.
As you can see in the photo, our Semi-Guns have a continuous free flowing curve through the outline with no straight sections or hips at all. The effect of this outline is to allow smooth and predictable transitions between turns….for example between coming off the bottom and laying the board over on the rail for the first turn. The nose area is pulled in, but still retains sufficient area to enable the surfer to move forward on the board if desired to draw out a longer turn….thus having multiple sweet spots. Boards which are too narrow in the nose can only be surfed off the tail because they cannot support the surfer's weight when forward and hence are restricted in their length of turn. Also obvious is the rounded pintail whereby the tail area is significantly reduced in comparison with small wave boards like the F-SKATE or V-SKATE. Reduced tail area is critical in large waves since it allows the tail to be buried during turns at high speed, rather than sitting up on top of the water and spinning out or "chattering"on the wave surface. The narrow tail actually bites into the wave face and helps hold the line through each turn. Tail shapes in my Semi-Guns are invariably rounded pintails……there is no good theoretical reason for using squares or swallows. Although a rounded squaretail would have a touch more drive……in practice this is inconsequential since there is abundant wave power to propel the board.
Outline and rocker (bottom curve) are the two most important determinants of surfboard performance.
You can see from the picture here that there is significant rocker in the Semi-Gun.
This is in stark contrast to our small wave boards such as the F-SKATE and Powerglide. As wave power increases, so should rocker. Why? The less rocker a board has the faster it will go and with more drive…..but it will be relatively stiff and hard to turn. In small waves we use less rocker to compensate for low wave power. In big waves with abundant power…..a board with low rocker would be really fast but almost impossible to turn and control. Therefore we use more rocker in Semi-Guns to enable the surfer to turn and position the board. In essence the heavier use of rocker allows the board to be slowed down in turns from the tremendous speeds which are generated. Whilst there is gradual rocker throughout the bottom……there is a relatively straight section located somewhat behind the halfway point. This is the engine room so to speak and can be used to increase speed when necessary by weighting slightly forwards. Because of the steeper character of most big waves….extra rocker is also required to facilitate late takeoffs. Additional tail lift enables the tail to fit into the steeper wave curve on takeoff…….and allows the nose to rise simultaneously so as to minimize the chances of nose diving.
After many years of surfing and shaping I have developed a bottom shape which produces predictable and confidence building results. A very slight roll in the nose area ensures that there will be no rail catching up front during full rail turns. This roll graduates into a flat area and then into a fairly shallow single concave under the chest area. Concaves promote speed by allowing the formation of an air pocket between the board and the wave and thus reducing friction. Concaves also have the effect of drawing the board up the wave face. This ability to be drawn up the face in a controlled manner allows the surfer to ride high in the wave……which is the fastest part of the wave, and to generate tremendous speed runs which have obvious benefits. The concave gradually flattens out and is replaced with a soft Vee under the backfoot area. The Vee facilitates rail to rail turns at speed. So overall we have a very fast bottom shape which still allows for control and direction changes.
As you can see in the foil picture, the Semi-Gun has the majority of its volume under the chest, and thins out significantly in the nose and tail. The tail in particular needs to be relatively thin to allow it to be buried in turns rather than to ride up on top of the water. Its perhaps obvious but nonetheless very important that you can paddle in early in big waves. There is nothing worse than not being able to get into the wave in time and going over the falls. By contrast, early entry allows you to set yourself up for what's ahead and creates tremendous confidence. The exact thickness of each board depends on many variables which I take into account with each person. Likewise with length……the board needs to be long enough but not too long, and depends on variables such as where the board will mostly be ridden/whether the surfer has other boards/level of experience and their weight.
Rails are low soft in the nose area blending into a slightly harder rail through the center and then very hard in the last third of the board for drive and bite. The rails through the center need to be fairly neutral or else catching will occur in choppy conditions. The rail foil.....the thickness of the rails themselves is also very important. Too much thickness and the board will feel "boaty" and will lack response/too thin and the board will catch through turns and will feel unstable. Complicated huh?
Fin positioning is critical. Too far forward and the board will lack drive/too far back and it will feel too stiff and will be very hard to control at high speed.
It's obvious then that a successful Semi-Gun contains a marriage of many subtle variables. When these are combined appropriately by an experienced shaper the surfer will feel confident in larger waves and will look forward to testing his/her limits.

Spring Sports Update
By Samuel Munsey
The baseball team has been on a roll as of late, winning six straight games as of April 14th. The team has five more games over the next two weeks before the playoffs
, where they will be the number one seed in the district as they look to make a state championship run. Logan Allen has been leading the effort in the pitching and hitting areas, but many others such as Nathan Peden, Cameron Robinson and Jesus Ruiz have made major contributions as of late.
Also playing well at the moment is the Titan softball team, who are currently 17-6 at the time of writing and face Pine Ridge and Seabreeze in their final two games. Sophomore Kendall Walsh and seniors Taylor Langworthy and Jenna Weldon lead the team at the plate, all hitting at least .340. On the mound, Walsh, Weldon and junior Marissa Adame all have ERAs below 2.00.
Also, there were many boys Titan lifters that made it to the state championship meet in DeLand. Brandon Elias, Joey Rago, and Anthony Pearsall were there, fighting for a shot at the state championship. Unfortunately, all three fell short of the championship but they all put in great efforts and had great finishes in their divisions.
"Seeing this many people on our team make it this far is truly an exciting time for the team and an inspiration for everyone else," said senior Tyler Thompson.
Finally, the tennis team has had their season come to a close recently after the district tournament. The boys team fought hard but fell short in their doubles match against DeLand, while the girls had one winning duo on the first day that had the chance to move on to the next round but failed to pass further than that.
"It was a great season for us and it was a lot of fun to try tennis for the first time," said senior Ryan Kenis.
Overall, the Titans are rolling towards the end of the school year with many great seasons, accomplishments, and possible championships. Between all these teams, the future is bright and the present is even brighter.

Landlord and tenant; tenant rights and responsibilities.
Requires the Director of the Department of Housing and Community Development to develop a statement of tenant rights and responsibilities explaining in plain language the rights and responsibilities of tenants under the Virginia Residential Landlord and Tenant Act (� 55.1-1200 et seq.) and maintain such statement on the Department's website along with a form to be signed by the parties to a rental agreement. The bill requires that the statement be provided to any prospective tenant and that the form developed by the Department be signed by the parties to the rental agreement. Failure to provide the statement of tenant rights and responsibilities to a prospective tenant or to provide a signed copy of the form with the copy of the signed rental agreement creates a rebuttable presumption that a landlord who has an assertion made against him of material noncompliance with the lease agreement has failed to maintain the dwelling unit in a fit and habitable condition.

including rent, charges for late payment of rent, the term of the agreement,
automatic renewal of the rental agreement, requirements for notice of intent to
vacate or terminate the rental agreement, and other provisions governing the
rights and obligations of the parties.
B. The A landlord shall offer the a
prospective tenant a written rental agreement containing the terms
governing the rental of the dwelling unit and setting forth the terms and
conditions of the landlord tenant landlord-tenant relationship
and shall provide with it the statement of tenant rights and responsibilities
developed by the Department of Housing and Community Development and posted on
its website pursuant to � 36-139. The parties to a written rental
agreement shall sign the form developed by the Department of Housing and
Community Development and posted on its website pursuant to � 36-139
tenant rights and responsibilities. Such The written rental
agreement shall be effective upon the date signed by the parties.
C. If a landlord does not offer a written rental agreement,
the tenancy shall exist by operation of law, consisting of the following terms
and conditions:
1. The provision of this chapter shall be applicable to the
dwelling unit that is being rented;
2. The duration of the rental agreement shall be for 12 months
and shall not be subject to automatic renewal, except in the event of a
month-to-month lease as otherwise provided for under subsection C of �
55.1-1253;
3. Rent shall be paid in 12 equal periodic installments in an
amount agreed upon by the landlord and the tenant and if no amount is agreed
upon, the installments shall be at fair market rent;
4. Rent payments shall be due on the first day of each month
during the tenancy and shall be considered late if not paid by the fifth of the
month;
5. If the rent is paid by the tenant after the fifth day of
any given month, the landlord shall be entitled to charge a late charge as
provided in this chapter;
6. The landlord may collect a security deposit not to exceed
an amount equal to two months of rent; and
7. The parties may enter into a written rental agreement at
any time during the 12-month tenancy created by this subsection.
D. Except as provided in the written rental agreement, or as
provided in subsection C if no written agreement is offered, rent shall be
payable without demand or notice at the time and place agreed upon by the
parties. Except as provided in the written rental agreement, rent is payable at
the place designated by the landlord, and periodic rent is payable at the
beginning of any term of one month or less and otherwise in equal installments
at the beginning of each month. If the landlord receives from a tenant a
written request for a written statement of charges and payments, he shall
provide the tenant with a written statement showing all debits and credits over
the tenancy or the past 12 months, whichever is shorter. The landlord shall
provide such written statement within 10 business days of receiving the
E. Except as provided in the written rental agreement or, as
provided in subsection C if no written agreement is offered, the tenancy shall
be week-to-week in the case of a tenant who pays weekly rent and month-to-month
in all other cases. Terminations of tenancies shall be governed by � 55.1-1253
unless the rental agreement provides for a different notice period.
F. If the rental agreement contains any provision allowing the
landlord to approve or disapprove a sublessee or assignee of the tenant, the
landlord shall, within 10 business days of receipt of the written application
of the prospective sublessee or assignee on a form to be provided by the
landlord, approve or disapprove the sublessee or assignee. Failure of the
landlord to act within 10 business days is evidence of his approval.
G. The landlord shall provide a copy of any written rental
agreement signed by both the tenant and the landlord and the
statement of tenant rights and responsibilities to the tenant within one

The Energy Business Unit showcases the best technology and solutions for the solar industry at Intersolar Europe 2018.
From June 20 to 22, over 3 days, "Intersolar Europe 2018" was held in Munich, Germany.
As one of the 4 major global solar energy expos, "Intersolar Europe 2018" displayed and demon-strated a variety of solar energy technology and their applications using the sun's rays and heat.
At this great expo, visitors were able to see the new technology and trends of the solar industry.
LG participated in the Expo where installers, EPCs, and distributors from many countries were gathered and actively promoted the excellent technology and solutions of their products.
LG also made efforts to enhance their premium image through this Expo.
This zone was set up to promote the High-Powered Premium products, "NeON® R" and "NeON® 2" with the emphasis that these products were made from the technology that has long led the solar industry.

This zone was set up to show that a Home Energy Total Solution is possible with just LG products.
In the European market, where the self-generated electricity rate is high, there is a strong demand for a convenient and effective self-generated energy system.
Therefore, the visitors were very interested in the Home Energy Solution Zone.
ESS/HEMS was especially displayed as a block diagram so that the visitors could easily understand the system. Visitors were also able to experience the "Monitoring Application" via the introduction video (HEMS), smartphones, and laptops.
The final zone displayed Value-Add products. The "Solar Car Roof" is made from Back Contact technology, and it boasts of a premium car roof design, increased mileage from massive energy generation, and reduced carbon dioxide. This was displayed alongside the "NeON® 2 Optimizer," which is safe, quick to install, and has an array design. Also, the "NeON® 2 BiFacial," with the advantages of double-sided generation, additional energy yield, and more, was introduced to the visitors.
LG's Energy Business Unit plans to actively and continuously promote the main products,"NeON® R" and "NeON® 2," and its image as a company that can offer a Home Energy Total Solution. With the continuous effort of the Energy Business Unit, it is expected to greatly increase LG's market share in the solar energy market with its products in the future.

The advantages and disadvantages of the digital environment
Upnify Editorial Team - 17 de noviembre, 2021
Before explaining the benefit that the digital change brought, we will share some important data that must be taken into account when selling.
Even though Mexican e-commerce was growing more than other sectors before the beginning of the COVID-19 time, this trend intensified in light of the pandemic. According to data published indicated that in June 2020, e-commerce emerged a rate of 500% sales revenue, between March and April of the same year.
Nowadays, we are having a routine life and most of us are transforming it into sedentary and monotonous lives. What happen when we get out of our comfort zone, by changing the tasks of our daily life? Sometimes we cannot handle a change with ease, or even worse if we are forced to change our life without previous notice.
What is happening in the digital world?
Social networks have undergone many changes, we used to use social networks to get in contact with friends and family or simply to have a good time after a long workday, it was our moment of entertain ourselves at the end of a heavy day, taking away of the reality. But not everything was entertainment, we also used some tools or apps to make our work easier and we cannot let mention online shopping, we used to do it, but carefully and we wanted to make sure of the website where our money was received and was reliable and we did not end up scammed.
The digital environment and the pandemic
Let's talk about the current situation in terms of the digital environment. the pandemic drove the development of new digital ventures, communication is faster and users are not willing to wait at long waiting times, now they demand quick response, they are no longer scared of online shopping, just googling the stores most visited or in trend to click and make the purchase. Just by googling which are the most visited stores and which products are in trend to click and start shopping.
At the beginning, it seems to be a sudden change, but at the end it turns out to be new engines that raised digital commerce, implementing new practices to offer quick response and be able to supply and cover larger markets.
How has this change benefited companies?
We might think that there is no benefit, without restructuring and adaptability to the digital environment. Before explaining the benefit that this change brought, I will share the following important data.
According to a survey carried out in Mexico in January 2021, more than a third (34%) of the internet users interviewed who bought a product online in the country, resided in Mexico City, while only 8% of Mexican digital buyers were in the Pacific zone. In 2019, the majority of Mexican e-commerce revenue came from purchases made from desktop computers.
In 2020, it was estimated that more than 39% of the Mexican population purchased goods or services online. Only three years earlier, in 2017, the percentage of digital buyers did not exceed 30%. This upward trend is expected to continue in the coming years, touching 58% penetration in 2025.
As you noticed, e-commerce has been promoted in a relevant way in recent years, which has generated the demand for many products and services, where the benefits have come to companies that innovated and went hand in hand with technology. They had to adapt their digital processes or add new tools to their work list.

Beside the Place in 87a Victoria Rd - Kilburn where the most important work was done, we rented a property in Mortlake by the Brewery 1990 with basement to rebuild this Program - Beside a large Majority of SNM/MPR Executive, Mr Ralph Volcer ex Treasurer and Mr Savy from the Alliance Party - Mr L Betsey, gave us their support. In exile and Sechelles Seychelles then Mr Phillippe Boulle - his SNP. Mr/ former Minister Andre Uzice and his Party still in exile. ( The involvement of then Seychelles Oppositions - fragmented) The extended Seychelles old Community in Kingston Upon Thames - its rebuilding and Sir James Goldsmith Family in Richmond beside other individuals. An important percentage of those Seychellois and former expat communities who had initially ask we take this responsibility, still convinced of our ability, the very positive and uniqueness of this Program in Europe and across the world supported us then . We have been calling and demanding a national and international review of this exile/refugees Repatriation program, as is the norm and all those who oppose this - their special reasons.


Simplify your life and make finding things effortless with these 40 easy life hacks for organizing your home.
If you're short on space or just want to add some extra storage, there are some clever kitchen storage solutions you may not have considered. Check out these 30 Ways to Revolutionize Your Kitchen Space.
Next, wind the eyelet screw into the lego. Thread a split ring through the hole and use it to attach keys.
You'll be so excited to put the Lego on the Lego board that you won't lose your keys (hopefully) ever again!
Measure the diameter of the top of the coffee pod (to figure out the spacing needed between each piece of molding).
Cut the T-molding to the length of your cabinet.
Next, predrill screw holes in the racks and screw them to the underside of a cabinet or shelf (ours are 3 in. apart for Keurig pods).
For a neater look, use brass screws and finish washers.
Have you ever had a heavy load of groceries that your reusable grocery bag just can't handle without ripping? Find a scrap piece of plywood lying around your workshop and cut it to the measurements of the base of your reusable grocery bag. Replace the thin plastic insert (so prone to cracking and splitting) with the measured and cut a piece of plywood and place it in the bottom of your reusable grocery bag.
When I needed to find a new tool storage idea for my garage that would also fit in my new truck bed toolboxes, I discovered this tip: I found a perfectly sized tool bag that I was not using in my garage, but it lacked compartments that my larger tool bag has. I like to keep my tools organized in a way that I can see all my tools at once and so I can reach in to get a tool without having to empty the entire bag to get to it.
Make this simple razor organizer with a small piece of 1-in. PVC pipe.
Cut the pipe into lengths that are just larger than your razors.
Then glue them together with hot glue.
That's it! You can make as many razor slots as your family needs. To be even more organized, color code or write names on each piece of pipe so your family members know which razor is theirs. You could also add a bead of hot glue along the bottom of the assembled piece to secure it to your cabinet or drawer.
The long compartments in a silverware organizer are the perfect size for storing toothbrushes and tubes of toothpaste. Medium-size compartments are great for disposable razors or clippers, and the small compartments work well for corralling lip balm, floss containers, etc.
This plastic bag dispenser would also be handy in the basement or wherever you keep your cat's litter box or near your dog's leash. Then you'll have a stash of bags ready when it's time to clean up after your pet.
To keep your cleaning supplies upright, hang them from a short tension rod inside your cabinet. Another clever idea is to slide a paper towel roll through the tension rod for easy access. This is also a great place to hang dish-drying towels and rubber cleaning gloves.
File folders can be used for more than just organizing papers and magazines in your office. They can also be used for organization in your kitchen.
We filled file folders up with the clutter that normally barricades the cabinet under the kitchen sink. Place all of your kitchen cleaning supplies into file folders, putting the most frequently used items towards the front. This kitchen organization hack is so easy and satisfying!
Fold your towel into its desired form and attach Velcro strips in two spots, one on the front and one on the back, as shown in the photo.
Finally, hang your towel from the oven or dishwasher door and match velcro ends together. No more towels on the floor!
Check out these 11 ideas for organizing your kitchen.
To keep all of your condiments under control use an empty six-pack holder to hold and organize the condiments in your refrigerator door. This organization solution is also great for transporting your condiments for a backyard BBQ or picnic!
Plus, the storage possibilities for concrete forms are vast. Think outside the home as well. They can be used to corral wood scraps in the workshop, long-handle yard tools in the shed and more.
An empty toilet paper roll also does the trick!
One roll of wrapping paper can usually last a long time. Many people just stick a piece of tape on the loose edge to keep it from unwinding while it's stowed away. But when you try to remove the tape the next time you need to wrap a present, the paper rips and you have to cut a new clean edge.
Cut an empty toilet paper tube lengthwise and wrap it around the roll of wrapping paper. Cinch up the tube as tight as possible and secure it in place with a piece of tape. Then when you need to use the wrapping paper again, just remove the toilet paper tube. You may rip the tube, but your wrapping paper will remain intact!
When it comes time to move, this tip is especially useful for packing—and unpacking—your closet!
There's no need to take your clothes off of hangers, fold them and stack them in boxes. Just grab a handful of your hanging clothes and wrap the tops of the hangers together using bendable electrical wire or a zip tie. Drape a garbage bag over the clothes, pulling the tops of the hangers through a hole in the bottom of the bag. Then cinch up the garbage bag handles and tie them together.
I have several padlocked sheds on my property. To keep track of which key goes with which lock, I bought two identical sets of key ID rings, the kind that stretch around the edge of the key head.
Rather than take up space in a drawer or cabinet for storing rolls of tape, mount an old paper towel dispenser to your wall or pegboard. It can hold several rolls of duct tape, painter's tape, etc., within easy reach. And unlike stashing tape in a dark cabinet or cramped drawer, the paper towel holder makes it really easy to find the specific tape needed for different jobs.
Use old prescription bottles to hold nuts and bolts, screws, nails, etc., on a shelf by your workbench. Remove the original label, so you can easily see the contents inside.
My kitchen drawers used to be an absolute wreck; pans and dishes crammed in however they'd fit. And nearly every time I needed something, it was always at the bottom of the drawer. My solution was to cut a piece of 1/8-in. pegboard to the size of the drawer bottom and attach dowels using screws from underneath. Now my pans are organized and easy to access. The 10 minutes it took to build was easily made up for with how much frustration it has saved me.
Keep Your Car Clean and Organized!
Keeping your car clean can be difficult. There are dirt roads, messy trees, pet hair, food crumbs and wrappers. And there's likely trash on the car's floor, under the seats and in the seat cracks. Toss out any wrappers, bottles and other objects in sturdy car trash can! Line a plastic cereal container with a grocery bag and use it as an in-car trash can. To keep the container upright, apply a strip of self-adhesive hook and loop fastener to the bottom of the container, so it'll stick to your car's carpet.
For a truly impressive backyard barbecue, you need the right tools and a great plan for a successful day out in your yard. That's why we've collected 12 of the best tips to make sure your grill-out is fun, easy and delicious.
Not sure which cord goes with which electronic device plugged into your power strip? Save yourself the hassle of following the cord from the plugin to the device for each item you need to move by labeling them.
Plastic bread tabs are perfect for labeling cords that are plugged into a power strip because they're sturdy, have enough room to write on and can easily clip around the plugin end of a cord. Plus, they often come in different colors. You can also use bread tabs to label identical toothbrushes in the bathroom, silverware at a party and even wine glasses at happy hour. So save those tabs when you buy a loaf of bread!

(not all flips have quite this large of ROI), but I also loved finding this one and cleaning it up. Once I spotted it on Offer Up, I knew there was potential to make some money, I just didn't know exactly how much.
This post may contain affiliate links. Please read our affiliate disclosure for more details.
One evening I was scrolling through my favorite app and I found this patio set for sale for $100. It didn't look to be in great condition, but it caught my eye because I thought it might be made of teak wood. Being a boat guy I knew that teak could clean up really nicely, and if it was in fact teak, it could be worth a bit more with some elbow grease.
I met the seller at his house and was excited to find that they were indeed made of teak wood! SCORE! I paid $100 for 4 bar stools, 1 couch, 4 chairs, and a small table and brought them home. Of course Melissa looked at me a little puzzled that I saw something in this old wood. (They really looked to be in rough shape when I got them).
To show her that they could become nice again, I pulled them out in the front driveway and started pressure washing them. Just look at the difference between before and after pressure washing!
Here is another picture of one chair while pressure washing it.
Check out the Facebook live we did after I pressure washed a few pieces.
After I pressure washed them and they dried, Melissa oiled them all with teak oil. She ended up using 3 coats on each piece because they sucked it up so much.
Then it was time for taking pictures and listing them online. We usually cross post our items on a few different selling platforms. We had these pieces listed on eBay, Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace. About 85% of the time, the items will sell on eBay first, and this time fell into that category. The funny part is that we usually list our prices higher on eBay than both Facebook marketplace or Craigslist. This specific set was listed for $1,400 on Facebook, but it sold for $1,800 on eBay first. A big part of that is the reach that it gets. Facebook marketplace and Craigslist are local markets only reaching a fraction of the amount of people that eBay can reach.
If you have been thinking about selling on eBay, but aren't exactly sure where to start, I just launched The Beginner's Guide to Selling on eBay! I am SUPER excited about this project because eBay has been my life for so long and such a huge passion of mine, and I love sharing that with all of you!
Another pretty cool part of this flip is that the buyer actually lives only 2.5 hours away. So instead of paying a shipping company to ship it freight, I will deliver it myself and save about $300. I charged them $400 for shipping, so with the cost of my gas being approximately $80-$100, I should make an extra $300 on this item. I'll take a $2,050 profit on a $50 item! Oh, and the reason it's only $50 is because this purchase was only for the couch, chairs and tables. This transaction didn't include the bar stools. I have the bar stools listed for $500 on Facebook and $750 on eBay. We will see when they sell. *UPDATE* I ended up selling the bar stools to the same buyer. Before I palleted it, I told him I had more teak and he was interested in it, so sent him pictures and sold it for another $400!
Here is a pic' of me palleting it all up to sell.
If you are ready to jump into flea market flipping (which also includes using apps from the comfort of your own home), for a side income or full-time income, then check out our online course Flipper University. I am so passionate about flipping used items and using eBay to do it, and I am excited to share that passion with you!
If you haven't already, download our pdf list of 4 tools I used to make this flip – and many more flips – possible. It is crazy how simple they actually are. This will also subscribe you to our flea market flips and eBay tip updates, you can unsubscribe any time.
Have you ever used Offer Up before? If so, what are some of your favorite finds you have found for personal use or for resale? Comment Below!
Seems like a hoax just to sell your own classes. Anyone can take pictures and make up a feel-good story.
Sorry you think it's a hoax Mike. Of course people could make up anything they want and post it on the internet. That doesn't align with our character and it's not our cup of tea. Have a great day and good luck with your flipping business!
I found this post so inspirational and interesting. I literally took notes on google drive learning how you flip flea market finds. I find it amazing you took the old barnwood patio furniture and made the patio furniture look like new. Never stop posting about your flea market flips I really loved this information. Im curious what is a freight company I saw you mentioned when talking about the patio furniture that you saved money on shipping because you delivered the item instead of using a freight company? Im curiois with big bulky furniture can you use a company like ups or fed ex or what is this freight company you speak of. Also Im curious how do you get your products for sale to show up in the search results on ebay? How long on average might you sell a item on ebay a week a month? Also did you use a different search term when you sold your exercise machine on ebay? I adk because I never saw any search results for the term exercise machine on ebay? So sorry for my long comment and all my questions just curious and ready to learn.
For Freight I use companies like Uship and YRC for shipping. I pallet these larger items.
The items usually will show up on ebay if someone searches for them. Exercise machine may have been too vague to find ours that sold a while ago.
We sometimes sit on items for a while, and sometimes sell them right away. My items are a little more unique so it takes the right person to find them. The profit margin we make is usually worth the wait though.
Thanks Kirsten! It is a fun hobby/side hustle/main hustle!
