I have a Chicago Firearms Permit
I originally posted this on another forum, but the mods thought it would be good to crosspost. I didn't see any other thread like this, so hopefully this will be something new.
As we all know, Chicago recently passed the "Responsible Gun Ownership Ordinance," allowing us city residents to finally legally keep handguns within city limits. I've gone through the application process for the Chicago Firearms Permit, and quite surprisingly, received it in the mail on Thursday of last week. I figured I would relate the story for anyone who may be interested.
To start with, soon after the ordinance was passed there was a lot of confusion about the application process. The CPD eventually posted this memo explaining the application process. The ordinance and all relevant documents can be located at the CPD website. One of the most frustrating parts to the application process was locating a "state licensed" firearms instructor that would teach an ordinance approved class. I had some other questions that I wanted answered as well, so I called the CPD gun registry department. I admit that I approached the application process with some skepticism, both because the ordinance was so new that nobody was quite sure how it worked and because of the general mentality Chicago has against firearms.
I had some logistical questions due to the timeframes the ordinance specified for registration of previously owned handguns. The ordinance requires all previously unregistered firearms to be registered within 90 days of the ordinance passage, which seems like a nice window to allow you to make your gun legal. Of course, the ordinance also provides for up to 120 days processing time before your CFP could be issued. I was curious if, due to the potential delay of processing, the 90 day window could expire before I received my CFP which would prevent me from getting a registration certificate for my Sig. I also wasn't sure if the 90 day window applied to me because I never brought my pistol into city limits, which I also wanted to make clear on any application. The officer I spoke with assured me that I could register my handgun at the time of application for the CFP, so that wouldn't be an issue. This of course did not turn out to be the case.
My other concern was due to the fact that I will be moving to a different apartment soon, and I didn't know if I should wait to apply since the address would obviously be changing. I learned that the state police so not send out new FOID cards when you submit a change of address, so my old address will be on my FOID card until it needs to be renewed. The officer I was talking to suggested that I submit my application before my move, since my FOID and drivers license have matching addresses and would thus not delay the paperwork.
I then asked if there was a list of approved firearm schools and they provided the URL for the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation which they claimed would answer my questions. There is a section for "Firearm Training Course" but the site does not allow you to search for a course. Rather, it is used to either verify if a license number you already know is current, or gives you the documentation to become a licensed instructor. Not very helpful, so I called the office to see if they had a list. They gave me a number to the state police because apparently they would know. The number turned out to be the emergency line, which was super fun and the dispatcher tersely transferred me to the FOID department, who of course had no list. Luckily a quick google search brought me to Fidelity Investigative Training Academy, which has a course specifically designed for the CFP. They even posted their Illinois license number and it checked out!
The school is located in the second floor of a strip mall, and shares space with a jujitsu school and a dance studio. The class was a very diverse group of people. A few people had stories about their homes being broken into and how they wanted a firearm for protection. One woman told me how the guys who robbed her house were caught and were serving a prison sentence that would be ending in a few months. She was particularly motivated to get a gun legally. The class was a good basic intro to handguns and included safety, general maintenance, an overview of different brands (don't by Hi-Point, they're for gangbangers!), and an overview of "how we think the new ordinance works, though don't hold us to it." None of the info was particularly new for anyone in the class, though I guess it would be good for anyone new to handguns. The next day was the range qualification portion. The requirement to pass was to fire 50 rounds at a target that was about 10 feet away. I was done shooting before most had gone through their first magazine. The instructor really liked my P220 though, so I let him shoot a magazine. I got my certificate of completion and my training affidavit and I was off.
The next day was paperwork day. You are required to file the permit application in person at police headquarters between 8AM and 3PM, Monday through Friday. After filling out the application and paying the $100 fee, you are fingerprinted. Contrary to what I was told on the phone, I could not register my Sig that day, which made me worry. The officer assured me that "it would all work out," and that if I didn't get my permit before I moved, that I could file a change of address. I did learn that while the registration is $15 per firearm, the yearly renewal is free. I was fingerprinted twice (their laptop froze the first time) and was on my way.
Since receiving my permit, I have submitted the registration form for my P220. I included a letter with it stating that the pistol had not been in city limits prior to registration, as I don't want to be filing what is essentially a tattle slip. The most obvious observation to make of this whole process is that the ordinance is designed to prevent as many people from getting the permits as possible. It seems particularly difficult difficult for people living on lower incomes. The process is fairly expensive, with the class, permit, and registration fees, and requires a significant time commitment. Since no ranges are allowed in the city, you need to trek out to the suburbs for your range qualification with the class. Since ranges are booked on the fly by the school, there isn't likely to be much access to public transport, especially if going out to a far suburb (This actually was a gripe some people had. I was going to offer to carpool, but everyone was able to figure out transport). Good luck if you can't get off work during the limited window the registration office is open. Also, all of the information is online so hopefully you have a computer and internet access. Calling the police wasn't particularly helpful as most of the info I got over the phone was wrong or useless, though I will chalk that up to the fact that the process is still new. Anyway, I'm now a permit holding registered and fingerprinted Chicago gun owner, so hooray! The ordinance allowed me to bring my pistol into the city while my registration is processed, so I have it at home and got a weapon light to celebrate. Seeing as how my license number is very low, it doesn't seem like they've given out very many yet. If anyone has any questions I hope I can help.

While it's a step in the right direction, I wonder how people would view the infringement on their first amendment rights if they were required to go through that process to get a permit to write a editorial against the government or belong to a church.

Congrats on having the paitence to put up with that. Even here in California, that seems absurdly draconian.
But help me out here...
Chicago Firearms Owners Permit (CFP).....: $ 100
Chicago CFP Fingerprinting fee (if any)..: $ ??
Chicago Gun Registration Fee ............: $ 15
Illinois State Firearms Owner ID Card ...: $ 10
Certified Class & Range Training course..: $???
One box (50 rounds) of .45 ammuntion.....: $ 32
I'm guessing between $175-$225 just to get this far.
How far did you have to drive out of town to get to a shooting facility (miles)? How much time did the trip take you (one way). How long was that portion scheduled to last? (:30, 1:00, 1:30, 2:00hrs ?)
How long was the classroom instruction? 3 Hrs?
How long did it take for you to arrive, check-in and get processed at the CPD bureau that processes permits?
The next question -- the Chicago certificate of firearm ownership, as I understand it, is specific to each gun and lists the address where that gun is supposed to be. So what happens if you must move to a new address before applying for a new certificate (i.e. due to a fire, water damage or some other unforeseen event)? Do you incur any liability (risk of arrest) if the city cannot provide the certificate before you move to the new address?
Inquiring minds need to know.

Congrats. And I admire and commend your determination to exercise the right. Hopefully, the process will be streamlined and trimmed to be less burdensome in the future.
And nice choice of weapon as well.

I appreciate what you did. I am sorry it was required to exercise a Constitutional right.
Wonder what would happen if you had to jump through hoops like that to write a letter to the editor or otherwise exercise your rights under the First Amendment.

Since taking the class at Fidelity I have heard of other classes that cost $135 plus an all inclusive range fee of $50. All told I guess it cost me $225 after registering my handgun and re-registering my shotgun and not counting the FOID which I already had. The FOID has a 30 day processing time and the CFP currently can take up to 120 days. So I guess that someone totally new and who takes the more expensive class faces a $310 cost plus up to a 150 day wait. This is CLEARLY designed to dissuade people from applying.
Processing at the police headquarters took less than an hour but the train ride was 20 minutes each way. I was asking lots of questions though, so it could have gone a little quicker I suppose. The biggest delay was when their fingerprinting computer froze.
I was determined to get my CFP forms submitted as quickly as possible and was quite surprised that it came as quick as it did. I'm sure that others will forego the process simply because it is so burdensome.

There was another recent thread on TFL asking:
" What kind of law would it take to be passed in your state for you to move?
Kudo's to you for staying and fighting for your basic right of self preservation in a city full of corrupt politicians, a city with some of the worst gun laws yet one of the highest murder rates in the US.
Remember the past anti-gun political agenda of your present city/state leaders, make it your business to know the agenda's of future candidates and come election day vote accordingly.
Keep up the fight.

I live in Illinois south of I-80. I find even the FOID highly objectionable. I can't imagine jumping thru the hoops you did in Chicago. It's time to take state control away from the crooked Chicago machine and restore some sanity to Illinois. After the next round of lawsuits, you sir, should be entitled to a refund. Good luck to you for all our sakes.

It's clearly designed to make it prohibitively expensive for someone like a single mom struggling along as an accounting clerk and part-time waitress. Or a senior citizen on a limited income who might be able to scrape together $275 for a nice used gun.
Illinois State Firearms Owner ID Card ...: $ 10
Chicago Firearms Owners Permit (CFP).....: $ 100
Chicago Gun Registration Fee ............: $ 15
Certified Class & Range Training course..: $ 75
Training Course Range Fee ...............: $ 20
One box (50 rounds) of .45 ammuntion.....: $ 32
This is probably typical within $15... I make that to be $252 in extra, government-mandated costs just to own your first gun.
If you're paid about $18/hr, also figure your time -- five hours of instruction time, about 4 hours of driving time, 90 minutes submitting the paperwork in person, plus the time to fill out all those permission-slip request forms. That's close to another $190, not counting fuel, transit or parking expenses.
I may drop Alan Gura a note about it, though I'm sure he's aware. He just may not yet know someone who's actually completed the process yet. Let's see if we can help him stir the pot.

Hazborgufen.... congrats on successfully "jumping through all the hoops". Seems like everything for the most part went rather smoothly for you... I haven't been having much luck. My inquiries have netted conflicting advice, a few shoulder shrugs and some plain ol' "I'm not sure, we'll need to look into that." I've also gotten a few hmmm, how to say it, ....looks?
With the exception of one legally registered shotgun I have kept my collection at a family members home in the 'burbs for over twenty years. When I was inquiring about the "previously owned/must be registered within 90 days" aspect of the whole process I was asked how many weapons (his word) are we talking about? I said there would be 16 handguns and 9 long guns..... I was told point blank, "that will be a problem, you will not be allowed to own that many"..... and here's the best part, another officer who was close by and overheard said, "why in the world do you need that many guns!?"
With the misinformation and associated fees involved I believe my "weapons" will be living in the burbs for a while longer, they've been there this long so a little longer isn't going to matter. Plus I am hoping that there will be some changes made (for the better) in the whole process, especially the fees... not in the cards for me right now to throw down that kind of money, unemployment only goes so far.... good thing they don't charge you to vote, eh?

I want to see what happens to the first CCW holder that's stopped for speeding.
That's going to be interesting

It's interesting that many of the politicians working so hard to make firearms if not illegal, then prohibitively expensive, to own are also the purported allies of the poverty-stricken, who are least able to pay for all the hoops the prospective gun owner must leap through in order to possess one legally. Makes you wonder...

Wow, what a process, glad you survived it. And all that is just to keep it in your home, no carry allowed, so far. I hope things get better fast, but at least you got this far.

I can see where you are coming from. This whole process is clearly designed to dissuade as many people as possible from owning a firearm in the city. The costs in time and money is really prohibitive, a point that is clearly recognized. I don't like the process from that standpoint along with the more basic argument that Chicago requires a license to exercise a right. The comparisons to free speech licenses have been made and I agree with them.
However, to dwell on this is very gloomy. The key point is that now a legal avenue exists to own a handgun in a city that fought tooth and nail against it. The process is flawed and many aspects will fail legal challenges, some of which are working their way through as we speak. All I can say is that I have jumped through their hoops, done all the legwork and paperwork, and paid all the fees. I've done everything that they put up to deter me however I, and the people in my class, refused to be stopped. And now, as much as I'm sure the city hates the fact, I have a handgun in my home. This is a victory.
I also think the momentum is on our side. People seem to be warming up to the idea of law abiding citizens owning firearms. Positive exposure to shooting sports helps. I take new people shooting as often as I can. So far everyone has really enjoyed the experience and it helps to dispel many gun myths and stereotypes. The more positive experiences people have, and the more knowledge they have, the better it will be for gun owners in the long run.
I guess my point is that this while this is a draconian process it is a step in the right direction.
You have until your current registration on your shotgun runs out to get a CFP, though I would advise against waiting. Get your CFP as soon as possible so that you can take advantage of the 90 day window, and so you don't accidentally end up making your shotgun "unregisterable." While there is a one handgun per month rule, it doesn't seem to apply during the 90 day window that we are currently in. I also don't recall any language that indicates any total limit to your collection, only how many can be assembled at the same time. The only outright bans that still exist are on "assault weapons," "unsafe weapons," and some wording on magazine size limits. Assuming your guns would individually qualify to be registered you could probably get your permit then send in a stack of registration forms. In fact, I recall another person at the station asking for 10 gun registration forms, which were handed to him without comment. You have to speak with the gun registration department directly, as they are the only ones who actually handle this process. While I had some difficulty over the phone with them, I still believe that it was due to how new this whole thing was rather than any malicious intent. The officers I spoke with in person were immensely helpful and supportive.
You are correct in your breakdown of the costs of this license. It essentially prohibits lower income families from being able to protect themselves. The cruel irony is that these are the families that most need the protection. Oddly enough, registering a shotgun or rifle was actually easier before this ordinance passed. It used to be only a $20 fee and you mailed in a form that you could pick up from any police station. Now you need the CFP for any firearm which requires the trip to CPD HQ during their limited hours of operation. My worry is that people who only possess shotguns and rifles will forego the CFP, thinking that it only pertains to handguns. Then when their registration expires, they find out they can't renew without the CFP and now their firearms are in the city illegally.
I haven't sent any emails to the people who helped win this case, but if my story can be of any use, I would most certainly want it to be. I should probably send some correspondence to at least thank them.

Just saw this and i am a step behind you.
Had to replace foid card - i lost it, but that took 3 months.
then found and took class. was not bad, but took time and money - like all day.
tomorrow will go over and shell out more money for the cfp and then - according to you - wait for that and then register the gun.
You are right, they make it very hard to do this because they don't wanty anyone to do it.
My costs so far.
foid = 10
picture for foid - 6
class = 100
range fees including 100 rnds ammo, targets, ears, free glasses i got to keep = 62.00
yet to do
chicago firearm permit = 100
gun registration = 15
= 293
not to mention a day off of work and gas all the way out to somewhere near joliet for the range portion and all the time, 1hr each for forms and pictures and mailings etc.
= so thats another few hundred.
I don't care really, just glad that it is legal now and i won't get thrown in prison for driving to a suburban range with my gun in the trunk.
But at least I will be legal - all the criminals will still be illegal!

ha, imagine if City of Chicago allowed concealed carry!
That will never happen at least to the general public. There will always be some type of restriction.

Speaking as a Chicago Cop, we haven't received any instruction in this new permit. so be careful.
It's not a CCW right? it allows you to own one and transport it not carry....correct?

I guess it is just permission to buy one for your home of residence.
www.handgunlaw.us is a good website, and you can click on Illinois for more info(such as what the laws in your vehicle would be).

It is a bit confusing, but was just at the office this morning to hand in the application for the CFP (Chicago Firearms Permit) after renewing my FOID card and taking a firearms class. I thought it would be a hassle as there was a line out the door, but that was for parking tickets! The Police Officer was actually very helpful in filling out the form and directing me to get finger printed etc. They will mail it to me in a week or so.
After I have recieved that, I can regester any handguns that I want to have at my house by mailing in a form with the info on the allowed firearms.
Anyway, the Police officer also said there is a 12rd max. for any gun I try to regester or they will deny me. So, no 17rd glocks. Have to get a lower mag. for Chicago.

There are nearly 30,000 people who want to brush their teeth without using their hands. We know this because earlier this year, 26,832 Kickstarter backers pledged €3,198,516 (USD $3.75 million) to bring the Amabrush, an "automatic toothbrush," to life.
Yes, our resident illustrator of imagined contraptions, Steven M. Johnson, came up with this first. But here's what Amabrush's real-life version looks like and how it's used:
Early tester models were supposed to have gone out by now, with the final product to ship in December. But those plans have been derailed. So what happened? According to the Amabrush developers,
…We unfortunately could not manage to send out Amabrush to our Pilot Testers, due to legal concerns.
…For everyone to know why we had to take those steps: We had some serious discussions with legal departments. Governmental matters did put us [sic] obstacles in our way and with every step it seemed to get more complicated and so a pre-release of our product was not possible, due to certification and other governmental issues.
It's somehow really complicated and we don't want to go into detail right now….
Doesn't sound very promising, but it's amazing that it brought in $3.75 mil.
Would-be design entrepreneurs among you, we suggest you start poring over Johnson's Bizarre Inventions to see what other crowdfunding gold might be in there.
Maybe it's because it's definitely not the first! I worked on a product like this in 1998...
What happens with all the money? Is it refunded?
Looks like there is another version on Kickstarter as well... still looks like they have a lot to figure out though: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2077043275/unicotm?ref=FundedToday&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=41dsa.fnd.to

Cerro Electrical®'s building wire is known for its outstanding quality and attractive combination of features. Building wire carries electrical current for external uses of power used in the construction of commercial, industrial, and residential properties. It is also used in power distribution applications, service entrance, and branch circuit applications for lasting installations. It is available in a variety of types, such as THHN/THWN, NM-B, and TFFN, and in different conductors, such as aluminum and copper.
Aluminum is as safe and reliable as copper. Listed connectors are evaluated and manufactured specifically for aluminum connections. AA-8000 conductors now have over 30 years of field installation proving their reliability. They have been recognized in the NEC for nearly 20 years.
AA-8000 series aluminum alloy conductors provide a safe and reliable method of designing and installing electrical systems. They are available as single conductors, in cable assemblies, and a variety of other configurations to meet the needs of different installations.
Copper wiring complies with every code, ordinance and regulation for electrical conductors throughout the United States. Copper provides more current carrying capacity for a given diameter of wire than any other engineering metal.
Because of its strength, copper resists stretching, neck-down, creep, nicks and breaks. All your connections will be solid with sturdy, copper and its flexibility makes it easy to join, while its hardness helps keep connections securely in place. The pure copper used in building wire will resist corrosion from moisture, humidity, industrial pollution and other atmospheric influences – to insure safe, trouble-free performance for the life of your system.

Fierce fighting was reported in Syria again Thursday, and skirmishes were reported spilling out of the capital of Damascus into outlying suburbs. Battles between rebels and troops loyal to President Bashar al-Assad were said to be breaking out south of the city, towards the direction of the border with Israel. IDF officials were keeping a close eye on the situation, Defense Minister Ehud Barak said near the northern border Thursday morning.
Speaking while on a tour of the Golan Heights, Barak said that "you can see the fighting from here. The battles and the attacks on senior Syrian officials Wednesday were a heavy blow to the Assad regime." Barak said that Israel was preparing for the fall of the regime, and especially for a flood of refugees who may try to cross the border in the event of a change of regime.
Israeli officials are especially concerned that Druze living on the Golan could cooperate with relatives on the Syrian side of the border and help them enter Israel. Last year, Golan Druze tore down several parts of the border fence on the Golan, enabling dozens of Syrians to enter Israel. Earlier this month, reports said that security officials had arrested a Druze resident of Syria who had attempted to enter Israel at the Kuneitra crossing. Security officials have placed a partial gag order on the incident. The IDF has in recent days boosted its presence in the Golan border area to prevent a mass invasion of Syrian refugees.
Meanwhile, a report in the New York Times Thursday said that Israel and the United States were discussing the possibility of Israel's destroying advanced weapons systems in Syria to prevent them from getting into the hands of terrorists in the event of Assad's downfall. The report said that there was a strong likelihood that Hizbullah or other terror groups would seize the weapons systems if there is a breakdown in authority in Syria. The issue was discussed, the report said, this past weekend, when US National Security Advisor Thomas Donilon visited Israel.
The report also cited several officials in President Barack H. Obama's administration as opposing an Israeli raid of the Syrian weapons system, because that might "give Mr. Assad an opportunity to rally support against Israeli interference."

[ Skip to current calculator list ]
The free online credit card calculators in this section will help you to calculate payments, payoffs, interest, transfers, balances and more.
My goal for this section of the website is to help you to escape from credit card debt and to convince you to stop carrying balances on your cards.
It never ceases to amaze me how people think it's okay to be charged 18% interest by the same lending institutions that only pay 1% interest for the money they borrow from us.
Or, how the same companies that cause us to become credit unworthy, use credit unworthiness as an excuse to charge us higher interest rates -- making it nearly impossible to become credit worthy and gain access to the lower rates.
Or, how the CEOs of the these card companies can sleep at night while financially raping so many people -- many of whom are just college kids. If none of that bothers you, then you may want to use the credit card calculators located on the websites owned by the card companies instead of using those included in this section.
If you had to have a hole drilled in your tooth before you were permitted to eat a food item containing processed sugar, would you choose to eat the food item?
If you had to experience an 8-hour, mind-numbing, dry-heaving hangover before you were permitted to go out for a night of drinking, would you still choose to go out for the night of drinking?
If you had to experience a high-speed, head-on collision with a semi before you were allowed to create text messages while driving, would you still choose to send text messages?
My point is, the reason we humans make so many poor decisions is because in most cases the decisions we make are painless at the moment we make them. It isn't until later that the consequential pain makes itself all too real.
This explains why card companies have been so successful at sucking the potential wealth out of the hands of people who actually have to work for a living. It's because no immediate pain is felt when you swipe that plastic through the wealth-sucking credit card machine.
If I could somehow make the pain of buying on credit strike you the moment you even think about making that mistake, you would not believe how financially happy you would be today.
Unfortunately, since I don't have a magic pain wand, all I can do is to give you the best credit card calculators I can come up with to help you to foresee and hopefully avoid the pain of buying on credit. Making that pain feel as real as it actually will be is up to you.
The most destructive belief that comes from having easy access to credit, is that you feel like you can afford to have it all. As a result you probably won't spend very much time researching your spending decisions, which in turn causes you to experience fewer benefits with greater sacrifices.
If you want to experience the opposite, then you need to force yourself to pay cash for everything. When you do that, one very important thing happens. You quickly realize that you can't have it all, which causes you to carefully consider which purchases will bring the greatest benefit for the least amount of sacrifice.
Below is the current list of credit card calculators you can use to make the pain of buying on credit real, and to reduce the pain caused from buying on credit in the past.

In this review, we'll find out just what it is that makes the world's best Wi-Fi extenders so great to begin with while pointing you in the direction of three of the best products on the market.
Introduction to the Wi-Fi Extender
In a society where the typical solutions to common problems require spending a bit of extra money for the latest and greatest in technology, it's understandable why it might be easy to assume that a poor Wi-Fi connection can only be solved by upgrading said connection. However, by purchasing the proper Wi-Fi extender, you won't only save money now, but will continue saving money in the long run through being able to opt for cheaper connections, being that you now have the power to give them a little boost. However, to cash out on said savings, it's important to ensure that you're getting the right extender in the first place. In this review, we'll find out just what it is that makes the world's best Wi-Fi extenders so great to begin with while pointing you in the direction of three of the best products on the market. Getting the proper unit for you might be easier than you think.
Best Overall Wi-Fi Extender
NETGEAR AC1200 WiFi Range Extender
When it comes to saving money, there are two major camps of thought. One tells you that you should pick up the cheapest product you possibly can, while the other tells you to put some extra money down on the right product, as this will save you money in the long run. If you subscribe to the second camp of thought, then the NETGEAR AC1200 WiFi Range Extender is just the Wi-Fi extender for you. Although it comes at an extremely high and downright intimidating price, it's important to consider all of the factors at play here before running the other way. As you'll find out, the product will (usually) more than pay for itself in the future. As such, you can consider it as being a long-term investment of sorts.
It truly doesn't matter what your internet connection's specifications are, the NETGEAR AC1200 WiFi Range Extender can handle it. It is this characteristic that ensures it will keep saving you money down the road. Sure, a unit at one quarter the price might be able to handle your current connection, but what about your connection ten or twenty years from now? If you firmly believe that internet technology will continue to flourish as it has been, you can be sure this product will be your best long-term solution.
Of course, savings aren't the only thing to consider. The unit's ability to tackle any given internet connection also makes the process of setting it up a whole lot easier. No longer will you have to worry about whether or not your Wi-Fi extender will be compatible with your current setup at home. Simply pick the unit up, plug it in and you're good to go. It is the NETGEAR AC1200 WiFi Range Extender's sheer power and versatility that makes it the best extender on the market. If you'd rather not read too much into whether or not your Wi-Fi extender will work with your current connection, or if you're in the business of purchasing something which is sure to last a lifetime, no matter where internet technology may happen to take us, you'll have a very hard time finding a product which even begins to match the quality of this unit. However, if you simply can't justify spending one hundred dollars on an extender, take a look at the two below products. You'll find their price tags to be much more agreeable.
The first thing you'll notice about the NETGEAR N300 is that it comes at one quarter the price of its heavy-duty counterpart. It's certainly hard to turn down savings like this. But, why is it so cheap anyways? Will you need to make any sacrifices to save this much money? Actually, no. At least, not any time in the near future. More often than not, the NETGEAR N300 will do its job seamlessly in any home. Despite its low price, it does exactly what a Wi-Fi extender is supposed to do.
So, what's the catch? The catch is that there's no guarantee that this extender will continue to be even slightly useful five years down the road. This is due to the maximum internet speed it can handle at any one time – 300Mbps. Now, it's very, very unlikely that this won't be enough for you to take full advantage of it. However, if you one day decide to throw down as much money as you can on the most high-speed internet connection possible, you may find yourself in need of a new Wi-Fi extender.
However, if you're less about World of Warcraft and more about checking your email before heading off to work in the morning, you'll likely never have such a high-speed connection in the first place. For this reason, it helps to take the time to think about what the future holds in order to save the most amount of money possible. After all, these extenders serve only to provide a cheaper solution to upgrading your Wi-Fi connection. If you can't even begin to imagine yourself ever acquiring an internet connection whose speed is higher than 300Mbps (many folks never do), then the NETGEAR N300 is an excellent choice.
Best Budget Wi-Fi Extender
The TP-LINK N300 is identical to the above model we just covered in terms of how compatible it is with internet connections of varying speeds. Because it is able to handle speeds of up to 300Mbps, the odds that it won't work with your current Wi-Fi connection are extremely low. Once again, this may change as does your internet connection. For the time being however, the TP-LINK N300 should prove to be more than enough. While the last model we covered might be somewhat more renowned for its convenience, the TP-LINK N300 sacrifices some of said convenience in favor of giving you a whole lot of control over what it is you're able to do with it.
One such example of the control it gives you lies within its feature which allows you to set up a new access point for your Wi-Fi connection. This is somewhat similar to the "personal hotspot" feature found in many of today's smartphones which allows you to connect other devices to your data connection. It also comes with an Ethernet port which allows you to use any internet-enabled device with your new extender, even if the device in question doesn't actually support wireless connections.
Lastly, the TP-LINK N300 comes complete with a two-year warranty. While two years of coverage may not sound that impressive, when you stop to think of the fact that you're getting a whole year of coverage for every ten dollars you spend, you'll come to find that the TP-LINK N300's warranty isn't only one of the best among Wi-Fi extenders, but one of the best among almost all types of products. This makes it an even more frugal a purchase, being that you're guaranteed it will stick around for at least two years. However, you'll most likely find that it will outlive this warranty by quite some time. All of these features go on to make the TP-LINK N300 one of the very best Wi-Fi extenders on the market.
Top Rated Wi-Fi Extenders Summary
With all three of the above extenders being of such a high quality, it can be hard to settle on the right one for you. However, picking out a product is rather easy when you know which type of person each one is targeted toward. If your biggest priority is saving money in the long term, you simply cannot beat the NETGEAR AC1200. Although its price may seem quite intimidating at first (and rightfully so), this model is the most likely to save you the most money throughout its entire life. You likely won't have to worry about whether or not it will be able to handle any new Wi-Fi connections you may find yourself utilizing in the future.
Of course, no matter how much money it may save you in the long run, many of us just can't part with one hundred dollars for the above unit. If this sounds like you, you'll be limited to choosing from one of the other two units. These are likely best if you know you'll never be bothered with insanely fast internet connections in the future. Which one you decide to go with will depend entirely one what's more important to you – a high level of control or a high level of convenience. If it's the former you're after, the TP-LINK N300 is your best bet. If you're more into convenience; however, you're better off going with the NETGEAR N300. It's up to you to decide which of the above models will most likely suit your interests.
Wi-Fi Extender Buying Guide
What is a Wi-Fi Extender?
If the above three units don't seem to offer just what it is you're looking for, you might just find it beneficial to expand your search beyond the above list. As it turns out, I can help you there as well! Try keeping the following buyer's guide in mind when shopping for a new Wi-Fi extender.
Do you need an Ethernet port?
If you don't need an Ethernet port but end up buying an extender which comes equipped with one, this isn't really a big deal. It costs very little for a manufacturer to include one in their product's make. However, if you do need an Ethernet port but end up getting a unit that doesn't have one, things start to get a little more serious. Don't assume that every single Wi-Fi extender comes complete with this feature, because this isn't the case. If you can't find out whether or not an extender comes with an Ethernet port, you're best not taking the chance if you know you need one.
Are you computer literate?
If not, it's essential that you buy a product which not only comes with a warranty, but with round-the-clock customer support. The last thing you need after picking yourself up a brand new Wi-Fi extender is to spend hours online trying to figure out just how to work the thing in the first place. One of the above products we reviewed earlier comes with such support, making it great if you'd rather not fuss around with getting your internet up and running. What's more, you'll be able to find a variety of Wi-Fi extenders whose prices seem to not have been marked up in the slightest on account of the presence of said support.
Common Wi-Fi Extender Features
It doesn't matter what type of product you're looking at buying – Wi-Fi extender or otherwise, there will always be features which are downright lifesaving for some and completely useless for others. However, there are a few features which are always a nice plus in a Wi-Fi extender. To ensure you get the highest level of satisfaction possible from your new extender, try to look for models which come complete with the below features.
- A Strong Ethernet Port – Of course, if you don't plan on buying a unit which comes with an Ethernet port, you may skip this feature. However, when a unit does come with such a port, it should be able to handle speeds way higher than a few hundred megabytes per second.
- Antennas – Although transmission electronics without antennas can work great, those with antennas work better. Because we're talking about a product whose sole purpose is to extend the range of your internet, there's simply no reason for a unit not to have antennas.
That's it! By keeping all of the above information in mind, getting the best possible product to meet your needs is a breeze. Remember, it's up to you to decide whether you'd prefer to save some cash immediately or later on down the road. There is no right answer in this sense, only personal preference.

Object::Boolean::YesNo - Boolean objects which stringify to "Yes" or "No"
use Object::Boolean::YesNo
True => { -as => 'Yes'}, # optional
False => { -as => 'No' }; # optional
# The constructor will create a false object with a Perl
# false value or the word 'No'.
my $a = Object::Boolean::YesNo->new(0);
my $b = Object::Boolean::YesNo->new('No');
# Anything else will be true :
my $c = Object::Boolean::YesNo->new(1);
my $d = Object::Boolean::YesNo->new('hippopotamus');
# These objects stringify to 'Yes' and 'No'.
print $a; # No
print !$a; # Yes (negating produces another object)
print $c; # Yes
print $d; # Yes
Boolean objects that stringify to 'Yes' and 'No', but behave like booleans in boolean context. The constants (functions) True and False can be imported as Yes and No as shown above.
If you are using Class::DBI, and you have columns which represent booleans as enum('Yes','No'), then doing this :
__PACKAGE__->has_a(column_name => 'Object::Boolean::YesNo')
will make column_name inflate and deflate into Object::Boolean::YesNo objects.

We're excited to announce DREAMaps Online now includes a comp tool. The new comp tool allows you to select a subject parcel and identify the most relevant comps. Sounds simple, right? Well, simple is often difficult to create. We spent a lot of time during the design process talking with many appraisers, GIS professionals, and realtors to identify what would provide you with the most value. We also reviewed other comp tools on the market to identify what was missing from current offerings.
Based on the feedback, we focused on two things: usability and flexibility.
- Usability – This is a core focus in everything we do. Our goal is to make it so easy to use that a child could figure it out just by clicking around. Of course, that may not be as impressive as it used to be since kids these days seem to be training us on how to use various devices 🙂
- Flexibility – One of the biggest complaints we received about other comp tools was that they were not flexible enough. Therefore, we made ours as flexible as possible by providing an easy to use admin section that allows users to configure most of the data in the comp tool. Users can decide what filters to include in the drop down menu based on any attribute in the database and even set default filters to automatically run. Users can also decide what data to display in each of the pop-up windows as well as what to display on the printable comp report.
Here's what the tool looks like:
As you can see, the DREAMaps Online comp tool makes it easier than ever to "show your work". If you would like to learn more or see a live web demo contact firstname.lastname@example.com

This interview with Rosailda Perez, Deputy Attorney General, California Department of Justice, San Francisco, who participated in the UC Hastings Legislation Clinic, was conducted and condensed by Rachel Goodman.
What does it mean to you now to be a government lawyer?
Here at the Attorney General's office I feel like I get paid to do the right thing, to help make California a better place. It is very rewarding. But along with that I feel a strong sense of responsibility to do good work. And that is pretty easy to do working here.
The Attorney General's office is comprised of three divisions: civil, criminal and public rights. I am in the civil division, in the licensing section. In this section we provide legal services to regulatory agencies that were created to protect consumers from harm from licensed businesses and professionals operating in California. There is a whole spectrum of service providers that require a license to operate and/or practice in California. We have well over 30 clients.
They range from entities that regulate nurses, accountants, engineers, etc. The cool thing about this section is that it is a litigation section. This is my first job out of law school, so there has been a real learning curve working in this section. At Hastings I had zero interest in being a litigator or being, what you would consider "a traditional attorney" but I was hired through the honors program and this is where I was placed.
My clients are the people at the state regulatory agencies who are in charge of enforcement actions. I litigate the cases when an agency wants to discipline the licensee for misconduct.
The way it works is when a client wants to seek administrative discipline against a licensee, they conduct an investigation and they forward the investigative file to the Attorney General's Office. It is assigned to one of the various attorneys in the section and we build a case. It is up to us to draft the pleading, which is equivalent to a complaint, serve it, communicate with the licensee or his/her attorney, and figure out how to resolve the matter. Normally the cases go to hearing. But we can also settle them. If it does go to hearing, that means we put on a mini trial in an administrative setting. We engage in the discovery process, identify witnesses, prepare witnesses, do direct and cross examination of witnesses, and do opening and closing arguments. From there, if a decision is appealed, we handle the appeal up the chain: Superior Court, Court of Appeal.
I have many clients. My caseload right now is extremely diverse. Every day is different. I get to learn about different areas of law and I love it.
What was your impression of government lawyers back when you were a student at UC Hastings?
I did not know any government attorneys. I did not really know what they did. I had been a social worker for the City and County of San Francisco prior to going to law school and I had seen the City Attorneys in court because they represented the social workers. That was my only point of reference for government attorneys, at the city level in San Francisco.
To be perfectly honest, while I was at UC Hastings, I did not know that there was an option of interning or externing at the Attorney General's office or the City Attorney's office. I went to law school knowing that I wanted to go into public service, working for a non-profit or some government entity. I just did not know that those externships where available during the school year. My first summer I worked for the County Counsel's office in Santa Clara County.
How is your social work background related to the work you do now?
I worked for Child Protective Services (CPS), for the City and County of San Francisco. I worked in the sex trauma unit, investigating cases of sexual abuse, primarily with monolingual Spanish speaking clients in the Mission district. The unit was an emergency response and court dependency unit. My role was to investigate sex abuse allegations. I would go out and interview family members and the minor and try to figure out what was going on. If I substantiated the claims, then I would write a court report that would get filed. I would go into court a couple of days later, and hopefully get a judge to grant jurisdiction over the minors.
I am not working with the same population now, but the skills I developed as a social worker are definitely beneficial to the work I do now: investigating, working in a fast paced environment, learning to deal with stress, working with other attorneys, having to write court reports to explain what my investigation yielded.
My social work background provides me with perspective. As a social worker I was dealing with, sometimes gruesome, cases of sexual abuse that directly affected an individual's life and well-being. This is not the case now. Being an attorney working with regulatory agencies can be stressful. There are definitely some difficult days. But I am able to look back on my experiences as a social worker to keep things in perspective. Knowing that some people have real life issues that are extremely challenging helps keep me grounded. My experience as a social worker has been invaluable, in that sense.
It sounds like you are speaking to the humanity side of the work you do. There is something about getting up close with things that can be quite horrific, but understanding that there are real people involved and be able to stay grounded in that.
Yes. Having my social work background helps me understand where licensees are coming from and helps shed light on why they engaged in misconduct. Maybe something difficult was going on in their life? That has also helped in trying to resolve these cases outside of the hearing process. Maybe this is a person who does not really have a drug problem? Maybe these other things were going on and it may not make sense to revoke their license entirely, but perhaps probation would be more appropriate? Most agencies have their own disciplinary guidelines. So, in that sense there is not too much leeway regarding the ultimate resolution of a matter, but sometimes my recommendation can make a difference.
Having been a social worker helps me understand where people are coming from, and reminds me that there different life circumstances that could have played a role in a licensee's behavior. Just because a licensee engaged in misconduct does not necessarily mean he or she is a bad person. It is important to recognize this, especially as a government attorney for the state.
So, tell me about a day in the life of you.
I live in the East Bay and take public transportation into the city, where the office is. I am usually in the office around 8:30 or 9:00. The first thing I do is check email to see what I need to respond to and then I start managing my caseload. I have about fifty or sixty cases that I am responsible for at any given time. And because it is a litigation section it is my responsibility to move them through the process. My cases are at various stages. So, I have to do a little triage to figure out what needs to be addressed first and then I make a "to do" list and try to work my way down the list. But obviously, like today (the phone rang several times during the interview), things just come up and my list gets ignored and I deal with whatever phone calls or emails I get from clients and go from there. No day is the same. On a quiet day I can just focus on my cases and get things done in the office. I am normally in the office, unless I am in a hearing or have a court appearance or I am out in the field preparing witnesses for hearings. I would say eighty percent of my time I spend in the office working on my computer or on the phone. And, if I am not preparing for a hearing, I am usually out of the office by 5:30.
There is always lunch. My section is really great. We try to do group lunches on a regular basis at least once a week. Other times I just eat at my desk, or with other colleagues from the honors program.
Your work sounds somewhat solitary. Are you often working with other people from your section?
It is actually a very collaborative and welcoming environment, particularly because I am the youngest and newest member of the section (I graduated in May of 2012 and started working in September of 2012), everybody else is aware that I need guidance. I go downstairs to my colleagues' offices and pick their brains because there are many things I do not know. I have been here two years now and everybody else has been here five years or more. And they have all come to the Attorney General's office with several years of experience.
It sounds very supportive.
It is extremely supportive! Early on my colleagues would come with me to hearings or they would accompany me to witness preparation sessions or court appearances and that was extremely helpful to ease the nervousness of appearing before a judge for the first time and being scared of messing something up.
What surprises you about your work?
The most surprising thing about the work I do is the variety of cases I have had the opportunity to work on. We work with over thirty state regulatory agencies. I had no idea I would have an opportunity to work with all of these matters and learn about the different state agencies, what they do, and the way they do things. Every day I learn something new.
Also the amount of responsibility I had upon arrival blew me away. It was a little scary but also gratifying that people trusted me to handle these cases. It was sink or swim. I think there is an inherent lack of resources working for the government, which to me means, you are given significant responsibility right away and you have to carry your own weight.
Can you say a little bit about your work/life balance and how it might compare to some of your colleagues who work in other areas of law?
I think I am spoiled being at the Attorney General's office because the work/life balance is great. I get to set my own schedule. As long as I get my work done, that is really all that matters. Sometimes I can get in late and stay late, or come in early and leave early. For the most part it is a nine to five job. I also get set my own calendar, meaning I request certain dates for my trials. If I know that I want to plan a vacation in a certain month I will not schedule a trial during that time. I am very lucky in that sense. I know that that is not the case for people working at firms two years into their profession.
You were in our Legislation Clinic, taught by Professor Michael Salerno, and I am wondering how that experience paved the way for what you are doing now?
The Legislation Clinic was one of the most valuable things I did while at UC Hastings. I enrolled in it right around the time I was offered this position at the Attorney General's Office for after graduation. For a brief moment I considered not doing the Clinic, because it is full-time commitment in Sacramento. I thought about whether my time would be better spent taking classes at UC Hastings. In the end I decided that the Legislation Clinic was a once in a lifetime opportunity and that if I did not do it then I would probably never experience what it was like to work in Sacramento and the State Capitol. And that has always been an interest of mine. So I decided to do it. It was great, and I would do it again in a heartbeat.
I was placed in the Assembly Revenue and Taxation Committee. I had no background in taxation, but that really did not matter. The point of the Clinic is to expose future attorneys to the legislative process and how statutory law is made, and I think that this exposure is incredibly important for any attorney practicing in California. Before that I was completely ignorant of the political or legislative process in California, aside from what you learn in school, which is not much. It was great. It was such an eye opening experience. I learned a lot, especially about bill drafting, how bills are passed, negotiations, and what role lobbyists play in the legislative process.
I also got to see the interaction of the executive and judicial branches with the legislative branch and that was great.
In my day to day work my Legislation Clinic experience has helped me with interpreting statutes and understanding the difference between a regulation and a statutory provision, and the rule making process with the state agencies. Also, sometimes clients call and want to make changes to one of the statutory provisions and they ask for our input. While I have not yet done that, I can see how my experience in Sacramento will be beneficial when that happens.
You mentioned you decided to take the Legislation Clinic when you already knew you would be employed at the Attorney General's office. Tell me more about your interest in continuing governmental work.
Before going to law school I knew I wanted to do public interest work, so I was seeking out opportunities that would position me to go down that route after law school. I had zero experience in politics, but I saw how what happened in Sacramento affected the work that I was doing as a social worker for the City and County of San Francisco. It is a bureaucracy. The level of advocacy was limited. Sometimes that is frustrating. You wonder why is this rule in place? Who decided that? That is what drove me to law school. I was frustrated by the level of advocacy I was able to do as a social worker. The same was true about my experiences while in law school.
For my first summer in Law School I was at the County Counsel's office and the second summer at the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund in Los Angeles. I was connecting the dots. There are these rules, and I wanted to find out how the rules are made. If I am going to be a lawyer I should know how laws are made. That desire is what prompted me to move forward and go to Sacramento.
Here, at my job, I am able to see that as an elected official, the Attorney General has an agenda and part of the Attorney General's work is to move the agenda forward for the benefit of the people of California, and often times that means finding legislators in Sacramento to sponsor bills that are going to provide a change that the Attorney General thinks is necessary. A lot of people do not know what this process entails. Participating in the Legislation Clinic gave me a glimpse into this world. It was fascinating.
Now, more than ever, there is pressure on lawyers entering the workforce. Do you have any advice you would like to give the next generation of law students interested in government law?
Yes. Be sure of your commitment to public service and know what it entails. It does not mean that you are going to become rich. You have to be interested in making the world a better place and that could be on a micro level or a macro level. After that, seek out opportunities in law school that will demonstrate your commitment to public service. So, at UC Hastings I did the Legislation Clinic and also a full-time semester long judicial externship. I would also highly recommend this externship to law students.
Is working in the public service sector a financial sacrifice?
I participate in UC Hastings Public Interest Career Assistance Program (PICAP) and plan to use the Federal Government Loan Forgiveness Program, so I am not too worried about this. It is definitely feasible to do this work, but you are not going to become rich. If your goal is to make a lot of money then yes, working in the public service sector can be a financial sacrifice. But, if your goal is to do work that makes you happy, then the financial pressure is not as strong. The financial sacrifice is worth it.
Since there are more opportunities at UC Hastings with the New Government concentration and the Government Law student organization, what feedback do you have for professors and the community in general for what the next generation of government lawyers needs to know to be prepared?
The most important thing would be to stress the practical skills courses for students. I did not take Trial Advocacy. But had I known what I was going to be doing, I would have taken it because I am in front of judges all of the time. There is no downside to taking a trial advocacy course or an appellate advocacy course, settlement negotiations too. I think it is important for professors to encourage students to take skills based courses so that students will be better prepared to start working for a government entity, where you are given a lot of responsibility right away. The more time you spend trying to research something on WestLaw, you put yourself at a disadvantage.
Also participating in the Clinics and Externship opportunities. They were beneficial to me. I spent the equivalent of a year away. I do not think I would have learned as much as I did, if I had spent that time at in the classroom.
It sounds like those experiences really brought it to life for you.
They did. And they helped solidify my desire to continue in public service. They also make applicants to positions like mine stand out. It is something different and more directly related to the work than taking a class and regurgitating what you learned on an exam.
Do you think your judicial externship as well as your experiences as a social worker were important in getting you the position you have now?
I do not know how much weight it carried, but I do know that I was definitely asked about my judicial externship in my interview. And I talked about my experience as a social worker during the interview as well. Particularly about the skills I gained as a social worker and how those skills would be beneficial to my work at the Attorney General's office. They definitely asked about those experiences. At that point I had not started the Legislation Clinic.
I think that extracurricular work experiences demonstrate maturity; that you are ready and willing to do the work.
Is there anything you would like to add before we wrap up?
Just that it is great if you can get a position working for the government either at the local, state or federal level. It is incredibly rewarding. You learn a great deal. And you end up getting a lot more responsibility and autonomy working on the cases than being a first or second year associate.
Thank you, Rosie, especially on a busy day.

If the difference is only few percents or less, this is not a problem for playing back recordings. You can simply sync the video playback to screen refresh and resample audio or drop/duplicate audio samples. That way there is no video judder and only a very slight reduction in audio quality. Heck, even most of the movies broadcast on PAL TV have been converted from 23.976 fps or 24 fps to 25 fps in a similar fashion; by speeding up and resampling audio. > With this bridge we come to VGA-hardware which might have 50.01Hz closest to > 50Hz signal.

(General description, the author can describe more if needed). The actual problem is that normally neither the video nor the audio outputs in a PC can be synchronized to _live_ broadcast. When the stream is live, one can't replay it faster. Slower playback would be possible with a buffer, but I don't know if anyone has implemented that. The vga-sync-fields (http://frc.easy-vdr.de/) patch collection provides support for synchronizing the video output exactly to a live transport stream. However, it only works on old pre-Avivo Radeons and Intel i9xx. I'm guessing that most general-purpose network media players such as Popcorn Hour and PS3 have the same problem with live playback? The only advantage they may have compared to standard PC hardware is that they can have a single clock source for both video and audio, which means that recordings can be played back in sync without dropping or duplicating audio frames. -- Niko _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list firstname.lastname@example.com http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

As of 2016, the Food and Drug Administration's employee health and personal hygiene handbook and its 2013 food code are good food safety and sanitation training materials. The National Restaurant Association's Servsafe program offers training courses and materials designed by industry experts and specialists from regulatory agencies, notes ServSafe.Continue Reading
The FDA's employee health and personal hygiene handbook offers information on hygienic practices, foodborne illnesses and guidelines for advising food service workers on how to maintain a sanitary work environment. The handbook includes tables and forms for food establishment managers to use in training employees, and it contains information on infective bacteria and viruses and various ways to prevent their spread. A chapter on foodborne illness lists the five most infectious pathogens that occur in food and notes their common symptoms and most susceptible populations. A lengthy section on employee health describes how to recognize and respond to workers who may show signs of illness. The 2013 food code is the FDA's comprehensive guide for governmental agencies that regulate food services and monitor public health.
ServSafe offers food safety training courses that use instructional materials based on the FDA's food code and contemporary research results, as its website explains. The certificate program for food safety managers provides training in time and temperature control, sanitation, personal hygiene, proper food storage, and several other topics.
