			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Mobile homes are usually mounted on grade-level wooden or concrete  blocks, with the trailer wheels removed.   They are typically skirted  with vinyl or aluminum siding, or painted plywood sheathing.  Mobile  homes are sometimes installed on concrete block foundations, and it can  be difficult to determine whether the foundations are mounted below the  frost level, because the crawl spaces are normally back-filled to grade  level.  We&#8217;ve seen the odd mobile installed on a full-depth, finished  basement.  From an occupancy point point of view, there is essentially  little to separate such installations from many other manufactured  homes.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Mortgage lenders and insurance companies generally request  storm tie-downs for mobiles homes in most areas, unless they are bolted  to foundations at least 5 feet deep.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Experienced home inspectors  ask the same fee for mobile home inspections as for traditional homes.   Although mobiles tend to be smaller than the average house, they do take  as much, and sometimes more time to inspect.  The same is true for most  cottages.  We frequently hear &#8220;It&#8217;s only a small cottage&#8221;, or &#8220;It&#8217;s  only a mobile, why should it cost as much as a house?&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We do a  number of mobile home inspections every year, however they account for  less than 2% of our total volume.  The following are some of the points  that we pay particular attention to, some of which are specific to  cold-weather climates.  There are certainly more items than listed here,  to check for &#8211; but these are some of the more critical items that come  to mind, which are specific to mobile homes.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">1.  Check crawl space  venting, and look for evidence of mildew, rot, rust etc. under the unit  &#8211; especially exposed, retrofitted plumbing, electrical and duct work.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">2.  Are the supply and waste piping adequately insulated, and/or heated for winter conditions?</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">3.   Is there adequate combustion air for a standard gas or oil furnace?   Most of the furnaces we observe are standard gas or oil, forced-air,  down-flow style.  The make-up (combustion) air source is usually from  under the trailer, excepting newer installations of direct-vent  furnaces.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Is there adequate ductwork?  In some mobile mobile  homehomes the original configuration provided for supply and return air  only at the furnace closet door.  Much of the retrofit ducting is  flex-duct, and may be damaged or deteriorated under the unit.   Everything under the unit is also susceptible to rodents.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">*  Speaking of rodents, don&#8217;t be too quick to stick your head into dark  spaces &#8211; you could meet any number of cats, rats, coons and other  critters &#8211; they can be vicious when they&#8217;re cornered!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">4.  In cold-weather regions, uninsulated oil tanks (outdoors) are subject to condensation and rust, especially at their bottoms.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">5.   Depending on the soils under the trailer, the unit may heave and shift  under heavy frost conditions, unless the pilings are mounted below  frost level.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">6.  Many units are insulated with Urea Formaldehyde  Foam Insulation (UFFI).   This might, or might not be a consideration &#8211;  depending upon history and attitudes in your local area.  Polyurethane  foam and other insulations are sometimes mistakenly identified as UFFI.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">7.  Mobiles are generally quite air-tight and (in cold-weather regions)  retained moisture will cause excessive condensation on windows,  especially metal-framed and/or single-pane units.  Many mobile home  in  colder areas are re-fitted with wooden or vinyl, double-pane windows.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">8.  Older mobiles had 50 or 60 amp electric capacity, and newer models most  often have 100 amps.  However, depending on the mobile home park, they  may be connected to a pole-mounted shut-off, of less than 100 amps.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">9.  In many mobile home parks, water and sewage are private or communal &#8211;  not municipal.   It is important to know how your sewage is managed, who  is responsible and who pays for maintenance and repairs to private or  communal systems.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">10. Beware of owner-installed porches and  additions.  These demand diligent inspection.  There is frequently  wood-earth contact, and poor ventilation underneath &#8211; and frequently  unorthodox framing methods.  The porch roof-to-wall flashings are  frequently substandard and problematic.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">The evening news screams scary headlines (&#8220;Pedophilia!&#8221;,  &#8220;Cyber-bullying!&#8221;) that make it seem as if mobile devices in the hands  of children are more dangerous than handguns. As a parent myself, I  obviously agree that every parent needs to safeguard their child&#8217;s  mobile computing experience. However, mobile devices can be the key to  learning and dare I even say it&#8230;success.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The question is not IF  your child should use a mobile device in school, but HOW to do it  safely. As mobile devices like iOS devices (like the iPod, iPhone, iPad,  etc); Android (the Barnes &amp; Noble Nook, a variety of tablets and  cell phones) or other platform (such as Windows Mobile, Palm,  BlackBerry, Nokia, etc.) make their way into classrooms, students,  parents, teachers and administrators need to implement best practices  that increase learning without compromising safety.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In the United  States, many schools are seeing six-year-olds with cell phones. The  average UK kid gets their first cell phone at eight. Children&#8217;s access  to mobile devices is staggering, as you can see from the &#8220;Learning in  the 21st Century: Taking it Mobile!&#8221; survey. For instance, among middle  school (6th-8th grade) students:</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">• 59 percent have a cell phone<br />
• 24 percent have an Internet-enabled Smartphone<br />
• 53 percent have a personal laptop or tablet</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">A generation of students is growing up with a different level of access to information at their collective fingertips.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Mobile Education 101</strong><br />
Mobile learning, aka m-learning, is one of education&#8217;s fastest  growing trends (starting in kindergarten and going all the way through  university, as well as professional learning environments). Properly  used, these devices are effective educational tools.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Benefits of mobile learning include:</strong><br />
<strong>Individualized Instructions and Learning:</strong> With automatic  personalization, all learning styles are engaged so there is no &#8220;one  size fits all&#8221; program. Most programs adapt to the individual learner&#8217;s  strengths, allowing the learner to work through their weak spots in the  privacy of their handheld. If a student has problems grasping a concept,  they can do additional work on their device whenever they choose.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Learning is seen as fun:</strong> Subjects like algebra are more palatable when placed in a game format  and students can relate the relevancy of real world experiences.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Collaborative and Interactive:</strong> Mobile learning tends to increase communication between peers and  instructors. Young people communicate differently based on today&#8217;s  technology. Teaching on their terms helps this information sink in  faster.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Discipline issues nearly vanish:</strong> Discipline issues  went down by 90% after the Rowan-Salisbury School Systems implemented a  mobile learning project according to Phil Hardin, Executive Director of  Technology. This is because students were more engaged on learning  activities on the school bus and had less time to play pranks or bother  other students.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Class attendance and participation:</strong> There  is no need to cancel class due to bad weather, or fall behind as a  result of extended absences if mobile devices are set up with online  content filtering technology to protect the content they view when they  are not in the classroom. Students can attend class and submit homework  from any location with devices that have a two-camera system that allows  collaboration and participation. This has particular relevance for  disadvantaged and special needs students.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Saves schools money:</strong> Cash strapped school districts are also attracted to mobile learning  technology as a way to save money over the long term. The iSchool  Initiative estimates each $150 iPod touch would save at least $600 per  student per year.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Inexpensive lessons and materials:</strong> E-books for e-readers and other online educational tools like mobile  apps are less expensive to produce than traditional textbooks and will  save money. Some online materials such as Open Text book are free.  Amazon recently introduced a new ad-supported e-ink Kindle at a reduced  rate (less than half of a comparable tablet). Whether schools will allow  ad-supported technology in the classroom remains to be seen. E-books  shouldn&#8217;t be seen as a separate device like an e-reader, but as a free  application that exists on almost every platform. The e-book learning  experience can be enjoyed anywhere for free. Today a student can read a  free textbook on her school PC, continue reading on her BlackBerry  smartphone during the bus ride home and then open the reading app on her  iPad to the exact point where she stopped reading on her phone. Any  notes she made on any platform would be saved automatically. This  content and extra portability costs the student and the school nothing.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">You can use the &#8220;mobile web&#8221; to create more awareness for your  business to mobile users. This can be very specific to local business  like retail stores, professional services, or restaurants, and you can  also market to mobile users worldwide if you have products and services  that can be offered in a more traditional e-commerce delivery system  like on-demand downloads, electronic shopping and online payment  systems. The back-end of the sale can then be handled with the familiar  aspects of fulfillment, product handling and shipping.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">There are a  few things different about marketing on the so-called mobile web, and  you need to make sure that you understand a few basic concepts before  you jump in feet first. A lot of mobile marketing is just common sense,  and therefore you just need to think about how people on the mobile web  may be approaching search a little bit differently than someone doing  search from a desktop or computer workstation.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">First and foremost,  realize and understand that people using mobile devices are obviously  &#8220;mobile&#8221;. This means they are in motion and most likely don&#8217;t have the  luxury of focusing on too many details. They will be looking for very  specific facts that can be boiled down to the most basic of information.  This may include information such as office hours, telephone numbers,  maps, a store locator, or other contact information. They probably are  interested in finding this information much like local listings in the  yellow pages of telephone directories were used in the past. The mobile  web is also a good way to make special offers or present coupon codes in  real-time. Think of it as another sales platform, and know that there  is no reason to shy away from this new advertising medium. Make your  mobile marketing entertaining and valuable. It will not be intrusive if  your message is worthwhile.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">So, the key here is to think like the  mobile end-user. This above illustration will work best for businesses  at the local level. The other type of mobile search is not all that  different from a traditional Internet search. These are mobile surfers  that are looking for information online. It just happens that they are  not in front of a personal computer or a laptop. They are using wireless  and are on the go. You need to respect their time and the limitations  of the current technology. One way to think of this group is that these  people are on the road for one reason or another, and they are using  mobile devices to find, collect, and share information. Anymore this  could be just about anyone, but you could say this could run the gambit  from a grade school to college student, a salesperson, a professional  person, or a delivery person. People from all walks of life are  accessing the web from cell phones, smart phones, PDAs, and now computer  tablets.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Think in these terms, and you will begin to see the need  to have a mobile-friendly version of your full-fledged website. Most  mobile marketing experts will agree that the mobile web should be  intended for consumption with fewer pages, fewer graphics, and  abbreviated content all the way around. Even though some mobile browsers  are robust enough to handle traditional websites, most mobile users  appreciate quick downloads for a better mobile surfing experience.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Another  aspect of the mobile web is that many people will be using the net to  entertain themselves or just kill some time. Think about the social  networking sites and how younger people are always texting with friends,  playing games, or watching videos. This will give you some ideas of how  mobile advertising has to become more sophisticated to capture this  tech-savvy audience. Advertising and brand experts are finding they can  now reach new potential mobile customers with text ads and banner ads.  Popular mobile networks can now be used to target market to any niche,  any group, or any subset of consumers. You can also expect that mobile  devices will continue to eclipse the sale of computers, as the trend is  going to continue for smaller form factors and more mobility.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.ttnc.co.uk/call-management/bolt-ons/forward-to-all/">Call Forwarding</a> :- This Forward to All Bolt On is a great solution for getting your calls answered more quickly or if you want a fairer way of distributing your calls so it&#8217;s not always the same person answering the phone.</p>
