Runaway and Homeless Youth and Trafficking Prevention Act Moves to Full Senate Vote

Legislation protects the nation's most vulnerable youth.
September 18, 2014 – Legislation to reauthorize the Runaway and Homeless Youth Act (RHYA) cleared the Senate Judiciary Committee today (15-3) with bipartisan support, moving the bill forward to a full Senate vote.
Led by Senator Patrick Leahy (D-VT) and Senator Susan Collins (R-ME), the Runaway and Homeless Youth and Trafficking Prevention Act reauthorizes RHYA, which expired on September 30, 2013. This legislation recognizes the needs of all youth, including gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender youth experiencing homelessness. While gay and transgender youth comprise only up to seven percent of our total youth population, they comprise up to 40% of all homeless youth in America.
"It is critical we provide vulnerable youth with the resources and support they need," Senator Patrick Leahy said. "Homeless children are less likely to finish school, more likely to enter our juvenile justice system, and are ill-equipped to find a job. The services authorized by this bill are designed to intervene early and encourage the development of successful, productive young adults."
RHYA is the only federal law that provides vital services specifically to homeless youth, including street outreach, basic shelter, and transitional living programs. A significant factor causing youth homelessness is family rejection, which is often the reason for homelessness among LGBT youth. Among the improvements made to RHYA reauthorization are improved support systems for family reunification and intervention.
"Despite the recent decline we have seen in chronic homelessness, there are still more than 1.6 million homeless teens in the United States," said U.S. Senator Susan Collins. "As the Ranking Member of the Housing Appropriations Subcommittee, I have made it my goal to address chronic homelessness. We must make sure our nation's homeless youth have the same opportunity to succeed as other youth. The programs reauthorized by this bill are critical in helping homeless youth stay off the street and find stable, sustainable housing. I look forward to working with Senator Leahy to quickly move this bill through the full Senate and House so that the President can sign it into law."
"I applaud the Senate Judiciary Committee for voting to move this legislation forward to a full vote in the Senate," said Cyndi Lauper, Co-Founder of the True Colors Fund. "I am especially grateful for the leadership of Sen. Leahy and Sen. Collins, and their efforts to ensure that this bipartisan bill includes protections for gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender youth experiencing homelessness. It is now time for the Senate to vote yes on this legislation, and help the 1.6 million youth across the United States whose very survival can depend on RHYA supported programs."
The True Colors Fund is in strong support of this Act and will continue to work with Congress to see it enacted. The Runaway and Homeless Youth and Trafficking Prevention Act strengthens critical services in the fight against youth homelessness and we thank Senators Leahy and Collins for their leadership on this reauthorization.
The True Colors Fund was co-founded by Cyndi Lauper to raise awareness about and bring an end to gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender youth homelessness and to inspire and engage everyone, especially straight people, to become active participants in the advancement of equality for all. www.truecolorsunited.org

On the way home from a science fair in Algiers, my boss and I came across a rather astonishing sight. I don't think the camera can really capture the weirdness, but I tried.
So, you're saying that the flood was a good thing.
PJ and I kept repeating the same mantra while viewing those pix. That is insane!
Half a house! Isn't that where people in rehab go? Oh, I must be thinking about a halfway house. The photos are interesting, even though they are really depressing. Can't that wonderful reality show "Extreme Makeover Home Edition" step in?

Q: Is it possible to "push up" the entire app when keyboard appear? Currently, I have a UICollectionView, which multiple rows of UITextField.
When the bottom UITextField, keyboard will block its visibility.
To make UICollectionView still scrollable to bottom, many techniques have been intoriduced

*

*How do I scroll the UIScrollView when the keyboard appears?

*How can I make a UITextField move up when the keyboard is present - on starting to edit?

*Third party library https://github.com/hackiftekhar/IQKeyboardManager

Most solution ideas are

*

*Calculate the high of keyboard.

*Adjust the contentInset and scrollIndicatorInsets of UICollectionView
However, such solution doesn't work very well, if my screen is consists of a UICollectionView and a bottom UIView.

When keyboard is hidden
--------------------
|                  |
|                  |
|                  |
|                  |
| UICollectionView |
|                  |
|                  |
|                  |
|                  |
--------------------
|                  |
|  Custom UIView   |
|                  |
--------------------

When keyboard is shown (My expectation)
--------------------
|                  |
|                  |
| UICollectionView |
|                  |
|                  |
--------------------
|                  |
|  Custom UIView   |
|                  |
--------------------
|                  |
|                  |
|  Keyboard        |
|                  |
--------------------

However, current provided solution, is only able to "push up" UIScrollView/ UICollectionView.
I tend to "push up" entire main UIView. Unfortunately, UIView doesn't have contentInset for me to act upon, based on keyboard height.
This is my current outcome using https://github.com/hackiftekhar/IQKeyboardManager. The outcome is the same, if I apply solution from https://stackoverflow.com/a/32353069/72437

When keyboard is hidden

When keyboard is shown. Only UICollectionView is being pushed up. The bottom UIView will be "covered"

Any idea how I can "push up" entire app screen, instead of just UICollectionView/ UIScrollView?

A: One of the most popular answer (https://stackoverflow.com/a/31124676/72437) is adjusting the Y of the view.
However, that is a wrong solution, if one of the UI component inside the view is UICollectionView. You will not able to scroll till the start of the list, after you adjust Y of the view.
The correct solution should be adjusting the height of the view.
private var originalSize: CGSize?

override func viewWillAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
    super.viewWillAppear(animated)

    NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector(keyboardWillShow), name: UIResponder.keyboardWillShowNotification, object: nil)
    NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector(keyboardWillHide), name: UIResponder.keyboardWillHideNotification, object: nil)
}

override func viewWillDisappear(_ animated: Bool) {
    super.viewWillDisappear(animated)
    NotificationCenter.default.removeObserver(self)
}

@objc func keyboardWillShow(notification: NSNotification) {
    if let keyboardSize = (notification.userInfo?[UIResponder.keyboardFrameEndUserInfoKey] as? NSValue)?.cgRectValue {
        if self.originalSize == nil {
            let originalSize = self.view.frame.size
            self.originalSize = originalSize
            self.view.frame.size = CGSize(
                width: originalSize.width,
                height: originalSize.height - keyboardSize.height
            )
        }
    }
}

@objc func keyboardWillHide(notification: NSNotification) {
    if let originalSize = self.originalSize {
        self.view.frame.size = originalSize
        self.originalSize = nil
    }

Cracks at embattled former P.S. 64 building spur evacuations
"It's all political. This is part of a concerted effort to put pressure on us," the developer said
By Caroline Spivack Feb 6, 2019, 2:18pm EST
The controversy-laden former P.S. 64 building.

The city evacuated buildings beside an embattled former schoolhouse after discovering cracks in the building, according to fire and building department officials.
Inspectors and engineers with the Department of Buildings (DOB) investigated cracks at 350 East 10th Street's facade after a 311 call Wednesday morning, a building spokesperson said. The discovery prompted fire officials to evacuate four nearby apartment buildings—346, 348, 362, and 364 East 10th Street—as a safety precaution, fire ans building department officials said.
No injuries were reported and a Con Edison crew was also on the scene, said FDNY. The building's owner, Gregg Singer, said "it was all a bunch of nothing" and charged opponents to his plans for the building with creating a fuss.
"It's all political. This is part of a concerted effort to put pressure on us," Singer told Curbed. "I was just at the building. There's definitely cracks—that we were already aware of—that will be pointed and repaired, but there's no immediate danger."
After surveying the building, city inspectors determined that the building is safe but did issue a violation to Singer for failure to maintain the exterior facade for cracks observed on the corner of the building at the third floor, a DOB spokesman said.
"DOB Engineers on site have inspected the entire building, and have found that the building is not in imminent danger of collapse, and does not currently pose a danger to the public," said DOB spokesperson Andrew Rudansky in a statement. The vacate orders for the evacuated buildings have since been lifted.
Singer has sought to transform the controversy-laden building, which has sat vacant for more than 20 years, into college dormitories. But neighborhood groups and elected officials have long-fought the project and insist the building be converted into a community center.
The city once owned the building, which became known as the CHARAS/El Bohio Community Center, but sold the property to Singer in 1998. At the time, activists railed against the city's plan to sell the parcel, but the auction went ahead and Singer acquired the building for $3.15 million.
In October 2017, Mayor Bill De Blasio stoked hopes that the property could convert back into a community center when he announced, shortly before the mayoral election, that the city aims to reacquire the building. The city took little action for several months and in August 2018 Mayor Bill de Blasio told reporters that the city has "tried to have a productive conversation about purchase" but that he is "very frustrated with that owner" who the mayor claimed was stone walling the city.
Singer shot back saying that he "was astonished at the brazenness of the mayor's lie" and said he had heard no word from the mayor's office since the 2017 announcement.
In the meantime, Singer has been unable to move forward with his plans to turn the building into dorms after the city concluded that the proposal violated what is commonly referred to as the city's Dorm Rule and served the site with a stop work order that remains in place, according to the DOB. Singer is in the midst of suing the city to develop the land.

'Trust the process' approach guides South Bend's Mitchell
August 13, 2017 stvkrh905	2 Comments
Major League Baseball's minor leagues are about development.
With a motto of "trust the process," South Bend Cubs outfielder Kevonte Mitchell continues to learn the game in his fourth professional season.
Mitchell, who celebrated his 22nd birthday Saturday, Aug. 12 at Four Winds Field by going 2-of-5 at the plate with a double, two runs batted in and one run scored, originally committed to play at Southeast Missouri State University.
When the baseball and basketball standout and honor roll student at Kennett (Mo.) High School was drafted by the Chicago Cubs in the 13th round of the 2014 MLB First-Year Player Draft, Mitchell opted not to put off his pro development.
"The Cubs made an offer that I couldn't refuse," says Mitchell. "Coming out of high school and learning from professionals right away, I felt I needed that. I wanted to learn."
Kevonte's dad did not play baseball. His mom played a little softball.
Growing up in the Bootheel region of Missouri, the son of Kevin and Darlene Mitchell and younger brother of Brianne took to the diamond at an early age.
"I found out I was kind of good at it so I just kept playing it when I was younger and here I am today," says Mitchell.
He looks back on his days as a newly-minted pro and remembers that as another learning opportunity.
"I had to grow up really quickly, I'll tell you that," says Mitchell. "I'll never forget my first night out in Arizona. I'd never been that far from home."
An 18-year-old Kevonte gave himself a pep talk.
"There's no turning back now," says Mitchell. "I've got to do what I've got to do and play the game that I love."
After stints with the rookie-level Arizona Cubs in 2014 and 2015 and Single-A short-season Eugene Emeralds in 2015 and 2016, Mitchell has spent the whole 2017 season with South Bend in the Low Class-A Midwest League. The Cubs are 61-56 overall; 22-26 in the second half.
Using his swiftness, Mitchell has played mostly right or left field and been a threat to steal or base or go first-to-third. He was a third baseman and shortstop in high school.
"My speed is a big factor to my game," says Mitchell. "As an outfielder, I've learned about routes and how to get to the ball quicker. I still need help with that.
"I'll play anywhere (manager Jimmy Gonzalez and the Cubs) need me. I'll be ready to go out there."
Where trusting the process comes in the most for the 6-foot-4, 185-pounder is in the right-handed batter's box.
"I've made a lot of adjustments since the start of spring training," says Mitchell, who came through action Saturday hitting .252 with 11 home runs, 53 RBI, 51 runs scored and 18 stolen bases (.270, 1, 8, 8 and 3 in the last 10 games). "I don't consider myself a power guy. I have the potential to maybe be a power guy one day.
"I'm just trying to be a better hitter. I'm focusing on going the other way, knowing what the pitcher is doing with runners on base. With two strikes, I try to shorten up (my swing) and see the ball."
Mitchell saw the basketball go through the net on a regular basis during his time with the Kennett Indians. He poured in 1,585 career points. He was all-state as a senior and holds the school record for rebounds.
"I played whatever the coach needed — 1 through 4," says Mitchell. "Sometimes I'd bring the ball down (the court). Sometimes I'd be posting up."
The Cubs don't want Mitchell getting hurt by playing full-out hoops.
"I'll shoot a couple shots here and there," says Mitchell.
But mostly he trusts the process while getting better on the diamond.

stvkrh905 says:


Identification of parasite species is particularly challenging in larval and juvenile hosts, and this hampers the understanding of parasite acquisition in early life. The work described here employs a new combination of methods to identify parasite species and study parasite succession in fry of perch (Perca fluviatilis) from Lake Constance, Germany. Classical morphological diagnostics are combined with sequence comparisons between parasite life-stages collected from various hosts within the same ecosystem. In perch fry at different stages of development, 13 different parasite species were found. Incomplete morphological identifications of cestodes of the order Proteocephalidea, and trematodes of the family Diplostomatidae were complemented with sequences of mitochondrial DNA (cytochrome oxidase 1) and/or nuclear (28 s rDNA) genes. Sequences were compared to published data and used to link the parasites in perch to stages from molluscs, arthropods and more easily identifiable developmental stages from other fishes collected in Lake Constance, which both aided parasite identification and clarified transmission pathways. There were distinct changes in parasite community composition and abundance associated with perch fry age and habitat shifts. Some parasites became more abundant in older fish, whereas the composition of parasite communities was more strongly affected by the ontogenetic shifts from the pelagic to the littoral zone.

'Careless Crime' to vie at Taoyuan Film Festival
TEHRAN, Aug. 22 (MNA) – Written by Nasim Ahmadpour and Shahram Mokri, 'Careless Crime', is slated to be screened at the 9th Taoyuan Film Festival.
The synopsis of 'Careless Crime' reads, "Forty years ago, during the uprising to overthrow the Shah's regime in Iran, protestors set fire to movie theatres as a way of showing opposition to Western culture. Many cinemas were burned down. In one tragic case, a theatre was set on fire with four hundred people inside, most of whom were burned alive. Forty years have passed and, in contemporary Iran, four individuals also decide to burn a cinema down. Their intended target is a theatre showing a film about an unearthed, unexploded missile. Will past and present meet?"
The film has won several awards in other international events before.
The 2022 edition of the Taoyuan Film Festival is being held from August 19th and will end on August 28th.

Q: Rails way to create several "create" pages I have an "admin control panel" page which is handled by an AdminController. You can do two things in the control panel: create_product and create_order. There will be forms for each object, and when you submit the form, it will insert new records into the database.
What is the Rails way for implementing this? Do I generate a CreateProductController and CreateOrderController along with the appropriate view, which are accessible by clicking on the create_product and create_order links from the control panel?
Does the Rails way describe a way to handle both workflows using a single controller? At some point I will need to define a post method for each form, so it seems like creating separate controllers is the easiest way to set up required behavior and also the routing details.

A: Product and Order are all resources when having controller. The better way is to use RESTful resources. You can also add namespace for easier identification.
class Admin::ProductsController < AdminController

  def create
  end

  def new
  end

  # And #show, #index, #destroy etc.
end

class Admin::OrdersController < AdminController

  def create
  end

  def new
  end

end

I want to be able to index with timestamps. But it gives me an error. For example if I want to do:
df1['2016-03-01']

this works and returns the first line of df1.
But if i do:
df1[df2.index[0]]

This does not work and returns and error. I'm coding something that is iterating dates and I'm struggling to find a solution. Please help

A:
Make your dfs

df1 = pd.DataFrame({"Date": ["2016-03-01","2016-03-02","2016-03-03","2016-03-07"],
                   "AAPL": [0.013422,-0.012341,-0.000772,-0.413103],
                   "GOOG": [-0.321900,-0.000800,0.055500,-0.009555]})

df2 = pd.DataFrame({"Date": ["2016-03-18"],
                    "NFLX": [0.23525],
                    "FB": [-0.28942]})

# set date to datetime
df1["Date"],df2["Date"] = pd.to_datetime(df1["Date"]),pd.to_datetime(df2["Date"])

# set Date as index
df1,df2 = df1.set_index("Date"),df2.set_index("Date")

# output1

Do you get that feeling that our lives are getting complicated as we get older? Well I read this marvelous book called Getting things done The art of stress free productivity. I highly recommend it. I am trying to apply all the things from this wonderful book. Let me see, Dev and I bought a big filing cabinet to organize all of our documents, we bought a lot of folders, we bought a labeler, notebooks (Moleskine) and we have an inbox, sort of. And for the techie in me, I found orgmode.
Orgmode is the best thing invented since sliced bread!
Getting things done (GTD) has this mantra that everything needs to be captured. By that we mean, any input such as telephone calls, emails, snail mail, and even random ideas that props up in our brain, needs to be captured. They call this capturing. So when we capture, we put all this stuff in a "to-be sorted" inbox. The idea is to get the "captured thing" and move on and continue whatever one is doing. One part that I haven't gotten an optimum solution yet is the capturing while I am driving. I have driven long hours ever since I moved and Dev still lives two hours away. I was thinking that I could use my cellphone's voice recorder function but I found out that this is not easy with an Iphone or an Android phone. I miss my Blackberry's one button voice recording. I really miss that functionality. I wanted to go back to Blackberry. I read rumors that Blackberry might be switching to Android. I hope they do it. I also hope that my carrier supports it.
I recently switched to Textnow, which is a Sprint MVNO. So right now, I am missing a lot of this cool ideas, what I usually do is have Dev write the idea on my Moleskine if she is there beside me.
I now use an iphone. Dev upgraded her Iphone and i am trying out her 4S.
At first, I miss my Bold's keypad . But i am now sort of getting use to the virtual keyboard. It seems like my thumbs are too big sometimes. Maybe i should try the autocorrect thingy.
I am almost done with my transition except that I don't know an easy way to migrate passwords that I stored in Password Keeper on the BB. I guess i have to transfer it one by one.
I am still watching out for the Blackberry Z10 and maybe if the App store blows up like the Iphone. Maybe the Z11 would have more apps.
Forget it ! whats the password?
I finally had it with passwords. Having to many computers and devices and too many websites that need some kind of password is killing my neurons. I know that its a known fact that each day as we get older are brain cells are dying one by one. I can't help but think that having all these things to remember is not really a good thing for my brain not that I have much to speak of anyway.
So here is my little solution to all the password dilemma. I gave up memorizing it and just let my blackberry remember it for me. Password keeper is installed on my Storm 2 so it was a cinch to setup just give it a new password and enter all the stuff you want it to remember. I use the random password functionality so that I get a much secure password. So there you go you pretty much secured all your important stuff. Just be sure that you don't lose your BB.
One thing that I haven't investigated yet is whether I can back and restore all the stuff in password keeper. So off to twitter I go. I better DM @blackberryhelp.
Trying out if I can post a video via this wordpress app.
Woah! I am now blogging using wordpress's BB app. I find it somewhat new and refreshing . Just like doing a tweet . So this is just a beginning , I might do this more often . Typing using Surepress is really quick and very easy. It does auto-complete and a lot of stuff like appending a period at the end of sentences.
So long for now. I got to get some sleep.

INDONESIA - According to the UN's Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO), almost 90 percent of the world's fish farm production takes place in the developing world, with Indonesia ranking number two in output.
The fresh- and salt-water industry is scattered across the archipelago, with most enterprises small scale; sea cage aquaculture tends to be run by villages.
The Australian Institute of Marine Science has been working with Indonesian scientists to check the impact of sea cage aquaculture on the environment and develop management guidelines. But most research on this has been done in Europe and North America, and little in the tropics.
This is a major concern in Australia, where the industry is tightly regulated. In Indonesia, however, there are reported to be few controls and the sea cage business is expanding rapidly.


Owning a car means having the freedom to venture at your own pace… it also means a great deal of expenses, and surprisingly a study found that it might be cheaper to Uber in these major cities than to own a car. Buzz60's Maria Mercedes Galuppo has more.
Correction: This article misspelled the name of the driver's brother, Mark Koenig. And a family member provided the wrong day of death.The article has been updated to reflect the corrections.
Michael Wallace was a full-time Uber driver who enjoyed the flexible schedule the job allowed so he could spend more time with his family.
Michael Wallace was an Uber driver who died Tuesday. Police say the driver and a passenger got into a psychical fight outside a Louisville hotel.
But on Saturday night, Wallace got into a fight with passengers outside an east Louisville hotel. Three days later, he died.
The fight was over "something money related," Wallace's brother, Mark Koenig, told the Courier Journal.
The incident happened around 6 p.m. Saturday outside the Courtyard by Marriott off Hurstbourne Parkway, police said.
The shouting match turned physical, and after a few minutes, Wallace went limp.
"I had just spoken to him a couple days ago," Koenig told the Courier Journal. "But after the incident, he never regained consciousness."
Wallace was taken to Baptist East Hospital that night. On Tuesday morning, surrounded by family and friends, Wallace died, Koenig said.
No charges have been filed against the passengers. Louisville Metro Police is looking into the incident as a death investigation and an autopsy is pending. A hotel employee said the hotel does not have surveillance video.
LMPD spokesman Dwight Mitchell would not discuss details of the incident but said the driver had a "history of medical problems." He added that once the autopsy comes back, police will decide whether to file charges with the Commonwealth Attorney's office.
A GoFundMe account for Wallace was set up Wednesday to raise $10,000 to pay for Wallace's funeral. As of Thursday afternoon, almost $700 had been donated.
Randi Vibbert, who set up the fundraiser, said she and Wallace were childhood friends and they both went to North Bullitt High School.
"He didn't have life insurance because he drove for Uber," Vibbert said. "He had been driving for them for quite some time and he enjoyed it a lot. When I heard about his passing, I knew I had to help out."
Vibbert said Wallace has three children under 10 years old with his fiancee, Amber Combs. Koenig said he also has a 19-year-old son.
"He was working that night to support his family," Koenig said. "He was a good father and a really funny guy. He cared for his kids so much."
In a statement Thursday, Uber spokeswoman Kayla Whaling said the company is willing to assist police with the investigation.
"Our deepest thoughts are with all those grieving for the loss of their loved one. We will support the Louisville Metro Police Department's active investigation in every way possible," she said.
She did not respond to questions about how long Wallace worked for Uber.
Koenig said police haven't given him specific details about the ongoing investigation. He said police told him the only witnesses so far were the passengers in the Uber.
"If anyone was a witness that night, please talk to LMPD," Koenig said. "Help us get closer to the truth."
Anyone with information is advised to call 502-574-LMPD.

Sir Timothy Thrapp on POWER Scriptures!
Teaching: Sir Timothy Thrapp on POWER Words from the Hebrew Scriptures! (Old Testament) – Old and New Testament Scriptures Demonstrating That YOU are a key element in God doing His will on this planet.
Greetings to all our brothers and Sisters in the Lord!
We have a fascinating program for you this evening!
Sir Timothy will be sharing Some inspiring scriptures and stories from the Hebrew Scriptures. Also known by many Christians as the Old Testament.
How was Moses instructed to work the power of God?
What strategies did Sampson and others use in their battles with the Philistines?
By what methods were Kingdoms conquered, for the Glory Of our Father God?
Can we use that Power today? Does God want his people to use His Power today?
We had the privilege of being visited this week by a brother from Israel, from the priestly tribe of Levi, I believe. This is the tribe that the Priests and the High Priests came From.
These men helped lead Israel, They advised The Kings, And the people. They taught the people the Word of God. They worked on community improvement projects and even world improvement projects.
The link above is to the newspaper reports, that prove, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that the super rich are already using "vaccines" and "mandatory health care" to commit mass murder of millions of innocent babies and others, worldwide.
TAKE NOTE! This is worse then Hitlers Holocaust. And its already started!
The Good news is , WE HAVE AUTHORITY OVER ALL THIS. If only 300 good guys, learn the power of God, We can fix all this. And restore paradise here.
GOD WANTS YOU! to help.
How bad it gets, or how good it gets, is up to us!
Do as God leads your heart!

Blank & Jones copyright
Thread starter dmgtz96

Just saw that the Transa tribute mixes on Youtube were blocked worldwide because they contained a single Blank & Jones remix.
Who the heck do these guys think they are? We live in a world where Youtube streaming is how most people listen to music. Are these guys technology-age luddites?
Why is it that every upload of Blank & Jones' music gets blocked worldwide, and why would they/their label do this?
Reactions: DazTC
Is it them or Kontor?
A lot of their music isnt on Spotify. Its weird. I want to support by streaming (whatever you think about the payment-system etc, thats another discussion). But now I simply can't.
Its not really strategic either. I think its effect is that some tracks don't grow into big trance classics. Tracks like The Nightfly, of Desire. Im guessing they are still like small respectable 'cheese-trance-classics'. But they could have been bigger.
Matrixmorpheus
These guys did the right thing abandoning trance while it was a sinking ship. Their music would have sucked monkey dick anyway if they would have decided to stay on the sinking trance ship.
Reactions: Halon
Its ridiculous isnt it...just let us share the songs...theyre ancient anyway!
Reactions: J. Dorian and dmgtz96
I don't know if this is coming from them or Kontor. It could be both.
I doubt there are many people buying their tracks physically, and as you mentioned they're not even available digitally. This is one of those cases where piracy is the only convenient way you can hear the originals in good quality.
Frankly I didn't care much for their tracks except for Cream. If they're forgotten because of their actions and lack of availability in legal platforms, I don't really see a problem.

I've heard over the years it's actually them, but Kontor is known to take all of their tracks down too so... But based on the fact they're not on streaming platforms, could very well be B&J themselves. A shame, because a lot of their older tracks aren't that easily found anymore.
DazTC
It's both Blank & Jones and Kontor.
We actually received a private message from Piet Blank some years back now telling us to remove a list of uploads (which he provided around 30 links to) on our channel. As dissapointing it was we were of course obliged and didn't want to cause any problems with them.
What I struggle with though is why are they placing restrictions and blocking tracks and remixes that don't even feature on their own channel?
I mean, it makes sense if they want all traffic to go through themselves and get the views etc, but....The Nightfly (Transa Remix) which is what saw our mix blocked isn't even on their channel.
More so, why are they also blocking fully mixed DJ sets which if anything are promoting their work. It goes completely against the point of DJ'ing in the first place.
Anyway, I tried to dispute this particular claim, explaining as best as I could that we were trying to do some good and something positive in the Trance scene helping to promote the return of Transa....
...after reviewing your claim 'Kuntor' New Media have decided their claim is still valid.

Time and again they've proven they're unreasonable when it comes to copyright. May their productions remain unknown and their legacy forgotten.

dmgtz96 said:
Most musicians these days especially the old guys think because they produced and created them they feel they hold all of intellectual rights for the tracks to be distributed and decide where to distribute the product. It's greediness most of their recent stuff is forgettable just chillout stuff the only good thing they've released is a track with van bellen. They have a very archaic way of looking at music distribution. I personally think you should look music as a hobby not as a career because 1) you stop learning new things or trying new things creatively 2) You get pressures from peers like partners to put money first rather than enjoyment of the experience 3) The moment you start taking things seriously, is a moment you are doomed for a life to pull you down which will be full of bitterness and misery.
Sadly, social media and hell the internet has ruined it it's a double edge sword.
You would think that they could work out a deal with you guys because of the views you get. You probably rake in more money compared to their sales. I know some companies out there pay good money for internet traffic or for blogs and I get paid $100 in 6 month period with over 11,000 subscribers but you have 97,000 subscribers on your channel so I assume you guys should get a lot more or at least the artist or labels.
TRANCEBLASTER
Piet Blank was one of the hardest working guys in the german Trance scene.. he even collaborated with Paul van Dyk at his peak.. when he don't want his music to be shared by other persons, then i'm totally on his side, he is a music biz dinosaur, knows what he is doing..
Laughing at a lot of comments in this thread where people are saying 'Well why don't they just give away their music for free!! How unreasonable!!!'. If you really want to listen to B&J stuff, go to beatport where their entire back catalogue is available and purchase.
Ironically, people are saying they will be forgotten yet this thread and others have had precisely the opposite effect and generated publicity for the artists. They were pretty average trance producers IMO but their stance on copyright has shown them to be shrewd businessmen.

I don't know, when was the last time you ever saw someone play a Blank & Jones track?
Hot Tuna said:
I don't know, I for one would have more or less forgotten about them had it not been for these posts slating them. Maybe the tough stance has led to more people purchasing their music hence their persisting with it.
Blank & Who?
I don't think forgetting they exist is a good argument that they might be doing it right. But if it's working for them I suppose that's fair enough. They seem to be making exclusively ambient and occasional deep house records now anyway.
I don't think forgetting they exist is a good argument that they might be doing it right.
Exactly. Think about the Internet traffic that trancefix and (maybe) r/trance have. In the grand scheme of things, it's not that much.
How many CD, digital sales can Blank & Jones really make from the traffic in these two sites? 20-50?
See above. No, I don't think they're "shrewd businessmen." I have more respect for artists that give away their albums for free and then use the popularity gained from that to get gigs and performances.
Gatekeeping is not fit for the streaming era.
I don't think forgetting they exist is a good argument that they might be doing it right
It wasn't my argument. You asked a question about when was the last time I heard someone play their track and I was answering that.
There's nothing wrong with them blocking unauthorised use of their content. They won't make any money from streaming or other people posting their tunes on personal YouTube channels. They can make some money from beatport sales though.

Most of us have a problem with cluttered space. And I am sure you hate your home, cupboards and spare rooms being overcrowded with things.
We sometimes use our garages to store our items and this makes your garage very cluttered. Garages are for vehicles and sometimes, we leave our cars outside because they can no longer fit inside the garage.
Most of the time the items stored in these areas are important but are not used regularly so that's why most Australians own a garden shed of some sort.
Garden sheds are your perfect solution for storage problems. You can put anything you want in them including your bicycle or outdoor activity equipment, surfing boards etc. Other than leaving them in the garage or even inside the house, it would be better if they have their own storage space so you can free home your home and garage for daily needs and use.
You can choose what type of shed you need to suit your needs.
Below are more details of your options.
For one, if you are the type of person who is always 'on the go', and do not have time for DIY projects, there are sheds available that are already made and delivered straight to your home. There are various companies that offer you ready-made sheds, called Panel Sheds.
Panel sheds used to be the only options in Australia. These were ordered from your local hardware store and came in pieces and assembled on your property but requires a team. They are bulky and not cheap but still, they are around today.
The newest and most popular option on the market is kit sheds.
They are made from the same quality steel as most sheds in Australia, the only difference is they come flat packed and engineered to be put together by the customer.
You can order garden shed kits online to be delivered to your house. They come with an illustrated manual on how to build the garden sheds. You can choose to build it yourself or hire someone locally to come to do the job.
Many find the project of assembling a shed satisfying once you finish building it.
Like most DIY products some previous experience in putting kits together is beneficial. If you are NOT the type of person who enjoys DIY projects, this might not be the right shed for you or you may want to consider hiring a local tradesman.
However, if your budget is tight you can always assemble a team of friends or family to help with the project, the more the merrier and anyone with skills will be a benefit. It is a perfect bonding experience for the family or your mates. Afterwards, you can reward them with an outdoor party!
Another option is custom designing a shed. This a very costly but if you have a specific design in mind, a challenging backyard to navigate and need a specific shape or maybe you want it to be MORE than a standard shed, then this option is for you. As the name says "custom", which means each company will have a different price, experience and assembly options.
Finally, you can become an engineer and master builder, and design and build your shed from scratch. With some planning, measuring, a few trips to the hardware store for supplies you can create anything you like.
This can be a very rewarding venture but a fairly big project. However, if you have minimal time and experience with building large structures Id avoid this option as you can end up spending more than you plan and ending up with something you don't love.

  * Gain/regain the experience of a "hackathon" style lab involving collaboration
  * Become more comfortable and familiar with the notebook shortcuts and tools
  * Get some experience doing image color quantization
*  Microsoft Azure and Jupyter notebooks (they've got a few services available)
*  Teaching, training and workshoping with Jupyter notebooks
*  Wrap up

## What's so special about Jupyter notebooks?

* Jupyter's power is in having code, data, and text all accessible from **one file viewed in a browser**, living locally or in the cloud.
* The Jupyter Project used to be part of the IPython Project and has spun off.
* It supports over 40 different languages (see this [article](https://github.com/ipython/ipython/wiki/IPython-kernels-for-other-languages)) and that is actively growing.

## Text bits (non-code cells)

The text in a notebook is written in the simple __markdown__ language, making it a rich format capable of "rendering" latex, links, images and even html (since we're in a browser and the R kernel let's us).

## The "new" wave on the block (at least R-flavored notebooks)

Amazing fact: in 2014, there were 80,000 jupyter notebooks on github.  In 2015 the number almost tripled to 230,000.  This shows how popular and fast-growing the usage is in the community.

Meeting called to order by Vice-President Jim McAllister at 6:00 p.m.
The Pledge of Allegiance was said, and a Moment of Silence was held.
Officers Deborah Iturralde, Secretary and Charlie Schneider, Treasurer and Member-at-Large Jesse Downhour, were sworn in by Mary Jo Hackett.
Officers' Rollcall: Present were Vice-President Jim McCallister, Secretary Deborah Iturralde, Treasurer Charlie Schneider and Members-at-Large Jesse Downhour and Mary Jo Hackett. Absent were Dale Gray and Mary Rodgers.
Minutes of previous meetings were read and approved.
Reports Given:

FMO
Wayne Tester, Executive Vice-President of the Region FMO gave report for Mary Rodgers. He had information and a form for permanent residents who might be interested in filing Homestead Exemption with the State. He reviewed the form and its directions. Deborah said she would make copies available in the Clubhouse.
MARINA none
WELCOME none
Penny Swiger at Lot 223 as the only new resident attending, drew from the 2 door prizes and won a free oil change from Total Automotive Services. Please encourage all new residents to get involved.
Jim informed group that bids were being received for a new tree-trimming company. Management reported that the previous company wanted an additional $30 per tree on a new contract. It was determined by Management and the Park owners that a new contractor be procured with instructions to only trim trees as necessary and avoid the radical and damaging hurricane cuts done in the past. Trees in the Park will be groomed as soon as this is in place.
Deborah reported that someone is still turning off the mailbox hut light. This is a liability for the Park.
One alligator was removed recently, but a second larger one is still here. She explained the trapping permits are specific and the second gator will be removed when the permit is amended to two captures.
She reported that Management isn't sure what is wrong with the handicap bathroom in the Ladies room in the Clubhouse. It always seems to be operating when it's been checked. Ladies were asked to leave a specific note about what's failing if they witness it breaking again and notify Management or an HOA Board Member.
Wild raccoons, foxes and coyotes have been seen roaming the Park. They are looking for food and will become a danger to Residents if food continues to be left outside for feral cats . Feeding feral cats prevents them from performing their function in the Park – to keep down rats, mice and snakes. All residents should be vigilant when walking at daylight and dusk.
FOR THE GOOD OF THE PARK
Sue Burgett briefly addressed the issue of April deposits made by the Activities group. She asked that if anyone had a concern, they should bring it directly to the Activities Committee.
Sue reported that four new barstools were bought for the workers in the kitchen.
She announced a profit of $2400 from the Penny Sale and gave the Activities report of upcoming events and activities. Please check sign-in sheets.
The Activities Committee is looking for a new Editor for the Chattings newsletter, someone to do the Recycling and a Host for the Easter Potluck Dinner.
Vice-President Jim McCallister called for adjournment and the meeting was adjourned at 6:40
Respectfully Submitted by Deborah Iturralde, HOA Secretary
Meeting called to order by President Dale Gray at 6:00 p.m.
Officers' Rollcall was taken: Present were President Dale Gray, Secretary/Treasurer Deborah Iturralde and Members-at-Large: Jesse Downhour, Mary Jo Hackett, Mary Rodgers, Charlie Schneider, Wayne Tester and Ron Thompson. Absent was Jim McCallister.
Guest speaker from the Hillsborough County Fire and Rescue, Ms. Vivian McIlrath, gave residents a brief overview of home safety. Falls are the number one call for Fire & Rescue. In a light-hearted manner she critiqued residents' shoes regarding soles and safety. Good traction helps prevent a slip – especially getting out of bed first thing in the morning. She discussed that all smoke alarms have a 10-year life, even those hard-wired. She said this has nothing to do with changing batteries but with the technology/mechanics of the detector itself. She encouraged all to go home and check date on back of each alarm and change batteries twice a year. She also demonstrated the proper use of a fire extinguisher. Lastly, she suggested everyone on multiple mediations use daily organizers to ensure proper dosage, and always share information between doctors and pharmacists. She said overdoses are too common among senior citizens because they often have multiple doctors and sometimes use more than one pharmacy. Ms. McIlrath was very engaging, and the residents enjoyed her humor and the knowledge.
The vote was conducted on the proposed By-law changes. Ballots were counted, and results reported. They are as follows:
With regard to separating the offices of Secretary and Treasurer, the amendment passed 51 for, 10 opposed.
With regard to adding the term "Landings" to the title Chulavista Homeowners Association terminology in Article V, the amendment passed 51 for, 10 opposed.
With regard to adding the duties of the Treasurer in lieu of Trustee, the amendment passed 44 for, 17 opposed.
With regard to changing the wording of Article VIII. Committees to eliminate the "Activities and Security" to read "HOA activities." The amendment passed 45 for, 16 opposed.
Jesse and Dale brought residents up-to-date on shuffleboard resurfacing. Courts should be done within next ten days and a resident has volunteered to plane pucks if we buy new planing blade.
Karen Sarley-Wiant, Elections/Nominations Chair addressed the group and asked for HOA nominations for upcoming vacancies. The retiring members of the BOD were polled, and Deborah Iturralde and Jesse Downhour will be running next term. Ron Thompson and Wayne Tester said they would be retiring at the end of this term. No nominations were made from the floor for the HOA. A call for nominations for Trustees was made. Bill Dohn was present and stated that he would run again. The other vacancy would be Linda Schwartz's position. She is on a cruise and will voice her intent when she returns. No other nominations were made from the floor. February's meeting will be the final opportunity for additional nominations. If a run-off is required, Election Day is Feb. 19th 7:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.
Dale asked residents to be aware of safety at dusk/night and use lights on golf carts and bicycles. He also notified residents of a recent theft in the park. Items taken included a golf cart, a weed-eater, propane tanks, and fishing poles. Many of these were taken from an unlocked shed. Please lock up sheds, your home doors if you leave and secure bikes and carts.
Minutes of previous meeting were read and approved.
New resident Voss Fernandez and his partner, Lot 275, were recognized and welcomed.
For Good of the Park
Sue Burgett gave an Activities update. Many things are happening and lists are available in the Clubhouse and at Mail huts. Several trips are being planned so check for flyers and sign-up sheets.
Bill Dohn said he would be getting long tables to residents for the upcoming garage sale (Jan. 26th). If you need a table, put your name, street address & lot number on the sign-up sheets hanging in the Mail huts or on a piece of paper in the park mail.
Sue Burgett informed residents that an ice maker for residents' use is being installed in the Clubhouse. It is for everyone's use and she emphasized that all should practice good hygiene and put the ice scoop in its designated spot. No cups, bowls, coolers, etc. should ever be put inside the ice bin.
Dale shared that a tentative date of March 28th has been set for a CVL Block party. More news will be forthcoming.
The meeting was adjourned at 6:50.
AMENDED: Dale Gray stipulated that the Block Party is not being don
e as CVL, but as a private party with an open invitation to residents. Several residents are helping to sponsor it and those attending are asked to bring something to share. A sign-up sheet will be placed at the Clubhouse.
Officers' Rollcall was taken: Present were President Dale Gray, Vice-President Jim McCallister, Secretary/Treasurer Deborah Iturralde and Members-at-Large: Jesse Downhour, Mary Rodgers, Charlie Schneider, Wayne Tester and Ron Thompson. Absent was Mary Jo Hackett.
Minutes of the previous meeting were read. Amendments were made, and minutes were approved as amended.
President Gray reported that the water usage study done for the Reverse Osmosis ultrafiltration system identified that the Park is using too much water per the Park meter compared to what's being treated. As a result, the County may be installing individual water meters – not that residents will be charged independently, but to discover excessive water loss/usage. Dale shared that a leaking toilet could use 6,000 gallons of water a month. Often the Management has been unaware of leaks until adjacent lots have been impacted by flooding. Residents were asked to notify Management or an HOA member if they have a leak in their units, and if assistance if needed in remedying it, there may be help available.
Dave Sampson reported that the Shuffleboard surface will be completely resurfaced, and the job has been put out for bids. Work is expected to begin within 10 days. Pucks have been and/or are being sanded.
Dale reported that after meeting with Management, it was decided that the pool ladder we have now will be removed and two ladders will be put in just off center in order to assist Residents in exiting the pool. The new solar cover has been installed and volunteers are needed to cover and uncover the pool as necessary. Joyce Tubergen and Jinny Logan have volunteered to help but need additional volunteers. Dale shared that a pull-bar will be attached to the free end to make it easier to pull and not tear.
The downed palm tree is to be removed within the week.
Lyn Burgett asked for clarification as to why the Board felt the need to separate the duties of the Secretary/Treasurer, requiring a separate office of Treasurer. Dale explained that the Board hoped to sponsor revenue generating activities to primarily cover certification requirements for new Board members. Current Secretary is prohibited from serving as a treasurer due to her employment. This situation could present itself in the future if the HOA generates funds. There were no other questions of the proposed By-laws amendments and it was agreed that a vote would be held at the next meeting. Each proposed change will be voted on independent of the others.
The Questions or Concerns sessions were discussed, and it was decided by the group that these sessions would be conducted bi-monthly until there was no need. The next meeting will be Tuesday, Dec. 11th.
Call for Reports:
Mary Jo Rodgers gave an FMO update and shared the value of having representation at the local and state government level. She explained that the FMO provides for legal representation that protects mobile home owners from not only State regulation changes, but also from Landlord issues/conflicts. Membership ($25 yr.) includes a magazine, workshops, training on the Florida Statutes and contact information for your local reps. She encouraged everyone to join the FMO.
New Residents:
Bill & Marjorie Sabin, Lot 259
For the Good of the Order:
Dale asked residents to respect each other and not walk or drive through anyone's lot without permission.
A resident expressed concern about an RV in the secured storage lot that is very dirty and can be seen from the road. An attempt to identify the owner and see if assistance is needed in washing it.
Cindy Ringler asked everyone to have a Park mailbox conveniently located. She is delivering in-park Christmas cards.
Jim McCallister asked that clarification on trash pickup be provided to Residents. Dale shared the week days for pick up and updates on what will be picked up by the Park and what the contracted trash service will pick up. Deborah volunteered to add this information to the HOA website pages.
Marita Stroud thanked her helpers for working hard to decorate the Clubhouse.
Sue Burgett reported on the upcoming activities. (These are posted throughout the Park and a copy for Residents can be picked up at Clubhouse.)
Meeting was adjourned at 6:50
Respectfully submitted by Deborah Iturralde, HOA Secretary.
The Pledge of Allegiance was said, and a Moment of Silence was held
Officers' Rollcall was taken: Present were President Dale Gray, Vice-President Jim McCallister, Secretary Deborah Iturralde and Members-at-Large: Jesse Downhour, Mary Rodgers, Charlie Schneider, Wayne Tester and Ron Thompson. Absent was Mary Jo Hackett.
Minutes of the previous meeting were read and approved.
Dale reported that the mailbox hut lights are working – please do not turn off; the damaged speedbump at the park entrance has been replaced; fence is completed, and the water ultrafiltration system is still pending County approval.
Deborah Iturralde reported on safety issues previously brought up:
● Hillsborough County has "Yellow Dot" program for vehicles. A yellow dot on a vehicle indicates to emergency responders that there is medical information in the car glove compartment. There were limited numbers of yellow dot stickers and accompanying cards and were dispersed at end of meeting first come, first serve. Deborah would procure more before the next meeting. She also shared information on the File for Life program. The HCFR doesn't currently have a grant to fund this and suggested that residents write out medical information and keep a copy on the fridge for first responders. Having multiple copies on hand allows the medic to take a copy with the unit in transport. She shared that the Fire Dept. spokesperson she met with said first responders always check fridge for medical info and cell phones. She shared his comment that all I-phones have an automatic app that allows first responders to access the medical information input by the phone's owner without unlocking the phone. Android users can download a free app from their Google Play Store. Deborah will contact the Fire Dept. PR person to see if a guest speaker can come to discuss safety with the residents after first of year.
● Address numbers should be placed on the home according to County Regs to better assist first responders. Street numbers are to be 4 inches tall and 7 feet up and lot numbers are 3 inches tall and 3 feet up from the ground on the side of the house with the driveway.
● She shared costs of door/window alarms and motion lights that Management had purchased for Residents to conveniently buy. The items were available for purchase following the meeting.
Jesse Downhour gave report on sanding the shuffleboard pucks at a cost of $2.00 per puck versus paying $8.00 a piece for new ones. Plan is to resand 40 pucks. Dave Sampson still waiting on estimate to resurface. Jesse said company he had spoken with said it would take 90 days after resurfacing to get area ready for tournament play. This could impact the park's ability to host a tournament next Spring.
Dale asked for volunteers for the Nomination/Election Committee. This committee is responsible for preparing the slate of nominees for next year's BOD elections. Four positions (as it stands now) are up for re-election; Secretary and three Members-at-Large. The President has the authority to appoint committee members and this may be done. Lyn Burgett, Dale Kittle and Karen Sarley volunteered to count ballots after the election. A Committee Chairperson is still needed.
FMO Representative Mary Rodgers explained the many benefits of belonging to the FMO and asked members to renew their memberships. She has the forms available.
For the Good of the Order
Sue Burgett shared that leaking water from the compressor flooded the Club House kitchen/bathroom area and this was just before the planned Veterans' day celebration. She said they had attempted to contact Management for help but got no response. She asked that someone be delegated the "weekend" or "holiday" contact for emergency situations. She found two residents to help clean up the water.
She also requested a second safety handrail be installed at the pool to assist residents with exiting the pool. She turned in a Resident's Concern form to the Office regarding this.
Ferol Thompson shared information on the Thanksgiving Food Drive and asked for assistance in collecting door to door and then delivering collection to Mary Martha House. Several volunteered.
Residents are concerned about an abundance of roaming cats. Please don't feed feral cats.
Marita Stroud expressed concern about her leaning electric power box. Dale responded that it would be repaired when Teco came to move the green power box.
Shirley Nichols asked that someone be responsible for picking up the memorial stands in a timely manner. They are being left out too long in her opinion.
Thanksgiving Dinner will be provided for Residents and Guests on Thanksgiving Day. The park owners provide this in appreciation. Tickets must be bought by the 19th: $5.00 per Resident and $7.00 per Guest. At the dinner the Resident ticket will be reimbursed. This ensures an accurate count for the cooks.
Activities will host a Medicare Supplement speaker on Nov. 27th at 9:00.

Motion to adjourn was made, seconded, approved and Dale Gray closed the meeting at 6:15.
Roll Call was taken: Present were President Dale Gray, Vice-President Jim McCallister, Secretary Deborah Iturralde and Members-at-Large: Ron Thompson, Jesse Downhour, Mary Jo Hackett, Mary Rodgers, Charlie Schneider and Wayne Tester.
President Gray presented the Board's findings regarding the current By-laws and referred residents to follow their copies of current version and suggested "corrections" and "updates." Copies of these documents have been attached. As each Article/Section was presented there followed a discussion. A summary of these discussions follows:
● Article III: Board requested change to By-laws to read "Secretary, Treasurer, and three (3) members-at-large. Reason: Secretary's role is extensive and while there is no HOA money presently, there is the possibility that there may be HOA funds collected, donated or held for specific purposes. The current Secretary is unable to act in a fiduciary manner due to her employer restrictions. This situation may or may not repeat itself in the future. Because the Board had other recommendations, it was thought prudent to request this change now and not be compelled to revise the By-laws in the near future. There has always been a Secretary and Treasure position in the HOA. The Board requested to remove the "/" and replace it with a ",". If a Treasurer would be needed, the position would be filled at election time. Discussion was held and Linda Schwartz suggested that the proposed wording "and Treasurer" be replaced with "and/or Treasurer." There was no opposition to this change.
Lyn Burgett asked why the change from six Members-at-large to 3. Dale Gray explained that unless stipulated by the By-laws, the FMO states that a Board should consist of 5 members. The Chulavista Landings HOA is presently at 9 members, and it has been hard to fill these positions in the past. The FMO recommendation is that Board members be tasked with responsibilities. The Board previously held an open discussion on task assignments and the ability to have a majority vote if the size of the Board was decreased by 3, to be eliminated by attrition.
Article V: Correct the wording in Section 4 to read Chulavista Landings Homeowners' Association to be in compliance with the HOA Charter.
After extensive research it was verified by the Board that neither the Activities Committee, nor the Trustees are part of the Homeowners' Association. However, the By-laws, going back many revisions, list the Trustees under "Officers." For compliance purposes it is necessary to remove Section 5. Trustee from the HOA By-laws. This removal also includes the "NOTE: At the annual meeting, the following will be added to the agenda: Trustees' Audit Committee Report."
Duties of the Officers must now include a separate description of duties of the Treasurer.
Article VIII: Correction to the Article V, Section 5 whereby the "Trustee" verbiage is removed requires that Section 1. Under this Article "Audit Committee Trustees" be removed. Committees will be Nominating/Election.
A lengthy discussion ensued with considerable and valid input from Residents and the Board. Mike Sandy, Lot 263 stated opposition to voting on all changes in a blanket vote. Sharon Van Alstine, Lot 371 suggested that the changes be broken out and presented individually for a vote at election time next fall. Several Residents supported this as it would allow more time for discussion on each proposal and could possible prevent a no vote on all issues. Dale Gray asked for a motion to table this topic until the fall meeting. John Dester made a motion to table and Karen Peterman seconded it. The motion carried. The Board will entertain any discussion with Residents regarding this topic between now and then.
Old Business: Dale shared information on the new fencing that will enclose the park along Gulf City Road. It will be vinyl and has been ordered, is being paid for the Owners, will not be gated. A chain-link fence will be placed between CVL and Betty Park, the cemetery and Handy's, with a gated pass-through to Handy's.
Luau will be held Friday night.
Reverse osmosis system for water system is being reviewed because it changes the amount of water used. Permits are being checked.
Reported that light out at mailboxes again. Dale will follow-up (NOTE: LIGHT SWITCH WAS TURNED OFF BY SOMEONE. HAS BEEN TURNED BACK ON.) Residents appreciated the lighting at Clubhouse back on.
Outgoing mailbox is loose and mail has been slipping out onto the ground. Dale will follow-up (NOTE: COVER HAD BEEN BENT. IT HAS BEEN REPAIRED.)
Dave & Helen Cook, Lot 260, asked that someone assist them with the recycling project over the summer. They will gladly resume it in the fall. Dale will get new, larger signage made for Recyles.
New Business: Dale explained the Personal Information sheet that accompanied the Rent Negotiation Notice. Most residents completed a similar form when they first moved in. the Office is asking for updated info in order to provide this necessary medical information should EMTs or Fire Rescue ever be called. It is strictly a voluntary act. The Board will look into a refrigerator magnet folder, similar to File of Life that many EMT/Sheriff's Offices provide where this info can be placed in a prominent position on each Resident's refrigerator.
Deborah informed Residents that HOA info now posted on CVL website and in the Chattings and Tuesday Questions and Concerns sessions will continue.
Deborah read the Minutes of the March 6, 2018 meeting and Mike Sandy, Lot 263 made motion to approve. Karen Sarley, Lot 248 seconded the motion and the minutes were approved as presented.
Reports Called for:
FMO –Mary Rodgers reported that on Nov. 6, 2018 both the House Bill 76 and the Senate Bill 76 need a "yes" vote to protect mobile home owners. She will provide more information at a future date.
Meeting called to order by President Joyce Tubergen at 6:00 PM.
Roll Call was taken: Present were President Joyce Tubergen, Vice-President Karen Peterman, Secretary Deborah Iturralde and Officers: Dave Sampson, Ron Thompson, Carl Roark and Wayne Tester. Joyce read Barbara Kukel's resignation dated Feb. 14, 2018. She has moved out of the park. Jesse Downhour was appointed to complete Barbara's term, and he joined the Board at the front of the room.
Minutes of the Feb.6, 2018 were read and approved.
Joyce introduced the Rent Negotiation Committee and presented the proposal from the Park Owners. Particulars are that a 3-yr. contract was proposed stipulating increases of $13, $14, and $15 respectfully and to commence July 1, 2018. Joyce explained this is in fair market value based upon a 2017 survey done of neighboring parks with similar amenities. Alternate option is a one year lease to be renegotiated annually with a top-off rent increase of 7% possible. Park owner Dave Marger met with Board members, Park Management and the Negotiating Committee and discussed adding a system to improve the water quality for all residents, as well as, costs for installing fencing along Gulf City Road for the betterment of park security. Neither of these improvements are connected to the rate increase. Joyce read the Agreement and explained how each owner should vote his/her preference. Only 1 resident per unit is allowed a vote even if both are on the title.
Reports were asked for:
Trustee Bill Dohn gave the annual audit report (see attached). Ending balance Dec. 2017 $3447.37.
No Marina report
