A: In general, they became effective on January 26, 1992.
A: The ADA requires that all new construction of places of public accommodation, as well as of "commercial facilities" such as office buildings, be accessible. Elevators are generally not required in facilities under three stories or with fewer than 3,000 square feet per floor, unless the building is a shopping center or mall; the professional office of a health care provider; a terminal, depot, or other public transit station; or an airport passenger terminal.
A: The cost of incorporating accessibility features in new construction is less than one percent of construction costs. This is a small price in relation to the economic benefits to be derived from full accessibility in the future, such as increased employment and consumer spending and decreased welfare dependency.
A: No, only a specified number of elements such as parking spaces and drinking fountains must be made accessible in order for a facility to be "readily accessible." Certain non-occupiable spaces such as elevator pits, elevator penthouses, and piping or equipment catwalks need not be accessible.
A: All alterations that could affect the usability of a facility must be made in an accessible manner to the maximum extent feasible. For example, if during renovations a doorway is being relocated, the new doorway must be wide enough to meet the new construction standard for accessibility. When alterations are made to a primary function area, such as the lobby of a bank or the dining area of a cafeteria, an accessible path of travel to the altered area must also be provided.
A: Appropriate auxiliary aids and services may include services and devices such as qualified interpreters, assistive listening devices, note takers, and written materials for individuals with hearing impairments; and qualified readers, taped texts, and brailed or large print materials for individuals with vision impairments.
A: The ADA does not require the provision of any auxiliary aid that would result in an undue burden or in a fundamental alteration in the nature of the goods or services provided by a public accommodation. However, the public accommodation is not relieved from the duty to furnish an alternative auxiliary aid, if available, that would not result in a fundamental alteration or undue burden. Both of these limitations are derived from existing regulations and case law under section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act and are to be determined on a case-by-case basis.
A: Only if waiters or other employees are not made available to read the menu to a blind customer.
A: No, not if employees communicate by pen and notepad when necessary.
A: Barrier removal limitations do exist. Barrier removal need be accomplished only when it is "readily achievable" to do so.
A: It means "easily accomplishable and able to be carried out without much difficulty or expense."
A: Examples include the simple ramping of a few steps, the installation of grab bars where only routine reinforcement of the wall is required, the lowering of telephones, and similar modest adjustments.
A: Possibly. For example, restaurants may need to rearrange tables and department stores may need to adjust their layout of racks and shelves in order to permit access to wheelchair users.
A: Businesses are not required to retrofit their facilities to install elevators unless such installation is readily achievable, which is unlikely in most cases.
A: Alternatives may include such measures as in-store assistance for removing articles from inaccessible shelves, home delivery of groceries, or coming to the door to receive or return dry cleaning.
A: None, only readily achievable alternative steps must be undertaken.
A: In determining whether an action to make a public accommodation accessible would be "readily achievable," the overall size of the parent corporation or entity is only one factor to be considered. The ADA also permits consideration of the financial resources of the particular facility or facilities involved and the administrative or fiscal relationship of the facility or facilities to the parent entity.
A: The ADA places the legal obligation to remove barriers or provide auxiliary aids and services on both the landlord and the tenant. The landlord and the tenant may decide by lease that will actually make the changes and provide the aids and services, but both remain legally responsible.
A: As amended in 1990, the Internal Revenue Code allows a deduction of up to $15,000 per year for expenses associated with the removal of qualified architectural and transportation barriers. The 1990 amendment also permits eligible small businesses to receive a tax credit for certain costs of compliance with the ADA. An eligible small business is one whose gross receipts do not exceed $1,000,000 or whose workforce does not consist of more than 30 full- time workers. Qualifying businesses may claim a credit of up to 50 percent of eligible access expenditures that exceed $250 but do not exceed $10,250. Examples of eligible access expenditures include the necessary and reasonable costs of removing architectural, physical, communications, and transportation barriers; providing readers, interpreters, and other auxiliary aids; and acquiring or modifying equipment or devices.
A: The ADA does not cover strictly residential private apartments and homes. If, however, a place of public accommodation, such as a doctor's office or day care center, is located in a private residence, those portions of the residence used for that purpose are subject to the ADA's requirements.
A: Multi-family housing that was first occupied after March 13, 1991, should have been constructed with accessible units, public and common areas. If not, the units and common use areas may have to be changed at no charge to the tenant. For older units, the tenant may have to pay for the changes. Changes to common use areas do not have to be changed back.
A: A tenant must ask for a reasonable accommodation. The landlord is not responsible for suggesting an accommodation. A tenant needs to show that the change is needed so that she/he has an equal opportunity to use the dwelling. A tenant may need to have medical or doctor statements to support the request for accommodation.
A: A landlord may set a minimum income level to quality for a property. If the landlord sets a minimum standard it should be used for all applicants, not just one group or another.
A: Never. This action is called "steering". It is unlawful discrimination for an agent to restrict a client's housing search to a neighborhood because of race or because of any other protected characteristic.
A: Financial institutions may evaluate a person's financial ability to pay back a home loan, but all decisions affecting the loan – including the interest rate, points, and other fees should not be based on race or any other protected characteristic.
A: Never unless you are: - Applying for housing set aside for people with disabilities - Asking for a "reasonable accommodation." Then a landlord may ask you to show how your disability creates a need for that change.
A: A landlord can't charge people with disabilities a higher general deposit. It is discrimination to charge tenants with disabilities more. Even if a landlord worries that a wheelchair may bump into walls or wear out carpet, he cannot make the deposit higher. However, a landlord may be able to charge an extra deposit if a tenant asks for a reasonable modification.
A: A tenant must ASK for a reasonable accommodation. The landlord is not responsible for suggesting an accommodation. The tenant must show that the change is needed so that she has an equal opportunity to use and enjoy the dwelling. In some cases, a tenant may need to have a doctor or other expert support her request.
A: You have the right to keep a service animal, if it is required for health reasons, even in a "no pet" community. Animals trained to assist or support those who are blind, deaf, suffer depression, or mobility-impairment can be deemed medically necessary.
A: Reasonable modifications are changes you make yourself. These changes must be necessary for full enjoyment of the housing. When you leave, you may need to put things back the way they were. To cover the cost of this, the FHA allows a landlord to request an extra deposit: How much depends on what it will cost to put things back. The amount of the deposit must be "reasonable." The total cannot be more than the cost of restoring the unit. The tenant should be able to pay the extra deposit "over a reasonable period." Any interest earned on the extra deposit belongs to the tenant. The next tenant may not want the modification changed back. If so, the landlord should return your extra deposit to you when you move. The landlord can then ask the new tenant for an extra deposit. This would pay to put things back the way they were when the new tenant moves. Federal regulations discuss two examples of modifications that might need to be changed back:- Grab bars in the bathroom - The regulations say it is reasonable for a landlord to require the removal of grab bars. Wall reinforcements can be left as they are.- Widening a bathroom doorway - This does not have to be changed back.
A: The city plays no role in landlord/tenant disputes, but there is a program that might be able to help. Call Home Incorporated at (515) 243-1277.
A: A Building permit is required when any building or structure is erected, constructed, enlarged, altered, repaired, moved, improved, removed, converted or demolished. There are certain "exceptions" when a permit is not required, as in City Code Section 26-231, however, this does not relieve the construction from complying with all applicable laws and ordinances.
A: An electrical permit is required for the construction, repair, installation or modification of any electrical system or equipment, except when a single fixture is replaced and no other construction or repairs are needed?
A: A mechanical permit is required for the construction, repair, installation or modification of any mechanical system or equipment, except when the repair work is valued at less than $100.
A: A plumbing permit is required for the construction, repair, installation or modification of any plumbing system, except the direct replacement of a fixture (sink, water closet, etc.) which may to be replaced without a permit.

Hunting for More of the Massive Meteorite
The meteorite that hit Russia last week may have been 55 feet long but the largest fragment scientists have found is only about a quarter of an inch. WSJ's Gautam Naik explains why, and looks at the meteorite's likely path through space. Photo: Getty Images

Also, for embossing with the Texture Fades, you'll need the Big Shot White Platform Base. A helpful tool for die maintenance is the Tim Holtz Craft Pick by Tonic.

of the moment, biker jackets are up there with the best.
Actually biker jackets have become forever pieces this decade,
so here is something more.
The heart of this look is definitely the jacket. I know this could be overdone
or too artsy. But I bet it will never be the same as your friends' and of course,
I will never ever get bored of the origami-like details.

After nearly 11 years, I've finally decided to pull the plug on Usenet archive: Groupsrv.com.
During the best times (6+ years ago), Groupsrv.com had over 1 million monthly visitors and very active discussion forum. At one point it was even in the top 10k of most visited websites in the world. But those times are long gone.Overall usage of Usenet among internet users has been slowly declining ever since and number of visitors to Groupsrv.com could no longer sustain the expense of storing hundreds of gigabytes of compressed Usenet archives. I've realized, it was time for me to move on and take the site down.
Little background. For those of you who didn't know… Usenet was developed in 1979 and fully established in 1980. It allowed its users to read and post messages (articles – posts) in various categories, known as newsgroups. Unfortunately, Usenet never grew up to be a full fledged discussion system and for many years it remained as a superficial hybrid between email and a discussion board. I've created Groupsrv.com to help bridge that gap. Domain allowed its visitors to read and post articles to Usenet by using only a browser, skipping complicated newsgroup email configuration and use of an email client altogether.

ReleasesBack to
Paul Chambers
Dexter Gordon's second recording for the Blue Note label is a solidly swinging affair, yet constantly full of surprises. It's not unexpected that Gordon's tenor at this time -- 1961 -- is one of the most enjoyable in mainstream jazz, but his transition from the cool California scene to the hotter music environs of New York City had energized his sound and attitude. A first-time pairing with bassist Paul Chambers has something to do with this, but it also inspires pianist Kenny Drew to a great extent, while drummer Philly Joe Jones is his reliable, energetic self, and always works well with Gordon. This SACD edition features a broad range of jazz that Gordon mastered with wisdom and a bit of mad abandon on his solos. Where Gordon's fluent melodic sense is perfectly demonstrated during the simple-as-pie groove waltz "Soul Sister," the steady, steamy bopper "I Want More," and the familiar Charlie Chaplin evergreen "Smile," his sense of expanding the specific line upon soloing is truly remarkable. He constantly keeps the song form in mind, riffing on and on without violating the basic note structures, constantly reharmonizing, shuffling the chords like a card dealer and updating the song form. "The End of a Love Affair" takes this concept into an area where his deep, subtle voice is translated directly into the low-slung voicings of his horn. The remarkable "Modal Mood" combines hard bop with Drew's three-chord piano repetitions and Gordon's soulful, simplified sax, while the equally impressive "Clear the Dex" steamrolls the competition as the band -- cued by Jones -- skillfully pushes or pull tension and release elements, then busts loose into joyous swinging in a true signature tune that is immediately recognizable as only the long, tall tenor man. The sad ballad "Ernie's Tune" is based on a yin/yang theme via Freddie Redd's stage play The Connection and the crazy character that ran wild or tame. There's a previously unissued track, "Landslide," which sounds slightly like a knock-off of one of his other tunes -- perhaps "Cheesecake" -- but considering the time frame, it could be a prelude to one of his most famous songs of all time. The excellent band, solid musicianship, and memorable music on every track make this one of the more essential recordings of Gordon's career, enhanced by the improved audio quality. ~ Michael G. Nastos

(Reuters) - Little-known American Peter Uihlein produced a dazzling late run of birdies to sprint to the top of the Spanish Open second-round leaderboard in Valencia on Friday.
Scoring was difficult at the El Saler course but Uihlein made light of the conditions to shoot a four-under-par 68 for a six-under tally of 138, one ahead of Chile's Felipe Aguilar (71), Frenchman Raphael Jacquelin (66) and Swede Rikard Karlberg (67).
Spanish pair Miguel Angel Jimenez, on his competitive return after breaking his leg in a skiing accident in December, and Alvaro Quiros along with Ryder Cup player Francesco Molinari of Italy were among the casualties of the halfway cut.
Former U.S. amateur champion Uihlein, chasing his first victory as a professional, took control of the tournament towards the end of the day by birdying the 14th, 15th and 17th holes.
"Leading a tournament is fun," the 23-year-old told reporters. "I have been close a couple of times after two rounds so it's nice to have the lead and be able to see how I do.
"It's all part of the learning process and the more I do it the more comfortable I'll feel.
"It's nice to play a course like this now and then where distance isn't at a premium and you have to think your way around," added Uihlein who played a full season on Europe's second tier Challenge Tour last year.
World number 13 Sergio Garcia of Spain was seven strokes adrift of the leader after returning a 73 for 145.

Muay Thai represents one of the very basic and essential elements of Thai society. In Thailand, the legacy of this noble art of self-defense is regarded as national treasure, which should not only be preserved, but also greatly honored in the interests of the Thai people and their patriotism towards the Thai nation. These traditions carry on to this day not only in the teaching of Muay Thai, but in the evolution of Muay Thai equipments.
TOP KING believes that "Total commitment to superb design and implementation of cutting edge technologies and materials, while firmly rooted to the core essence of Martial Arts and Boxing, will insure the development of their top quality products will surpass industrial standards and set market trends".

Nikolaos Michaloliakos, General Secretary of Golden Dawn
One of the great tragedies of the Greek debt crisis is the flourish of bigotry that blooms so easily in economic panic. The Greek fascist party Chrysi Avgi, or Golden Dawn, now holds 18 seats in the Greek Parliament and are gaining support in an increasingly tense political atmosphere. Blaming immigrants for a bad economy is par for the course in nearly any developed country, but Golden Dawn are particularly overt in their racism, openly denying the holocaust, praising Hitler, and campaigning under the slogan, "So we can rid this land of filth."
Recently members of the party reached out to Greek American civic organizations in Queens for clothing donations. The boxes they supplied were labeled "for Greeks only", and the Greek community in Queens has responded by the hundreds in condemnation at a recent community meeting. Astoria has the largest Greek population in New York, and Golden Dawn's attempt to set up an office there would provide an advantageous and potentially well-funded base of operations, as well as potential for growth in their New York chapter.
While nationalist tendencies can run amok in any community (even a community made up of immigrants), Queens is said to be the most ethnically diverse urban area in the world, and Greek Americans from Astoria are organizing and pushing back against Golden Dawn.
