NYC Transit president Andy Byford said Thursday that he was “very confident” his plan to overhaul the subways and bus network will get funded, despite the “very challenging political climate” in New York.

The plan, called Fast Forward, outlines a five-year and 10-yar road map to modernize the subway’s aging signal, overhaul the bus network, dramatically increase wheelchair accessibility in subways and improve the corporate culture at the state-controlled authority. The plan is expected to cost tens of billions of dollars, though MTA officials said it has not yet calculated a specific price tag.

“I’m very confident that we will find funding to deliver this plan. I think everyone in New York knows that do[ing] nothing is not an option,” said Byford, after touting the plan in front of civic and business leaders in Manhattan on Thursday. He remained upbeat, and kept out of the political fray in front of the press.

While the plan received widespread praise from transportation experts, advocates and the MTA’s board at its unveiling Wednesday, Mayor Bill de Blasio and Gov. Andrew Cuomo, two expected sources of funding, immediately began sparring over giving the MTA more money.

“It’s a very challenging political environment, but so was Toronto …,” Byford continued. “So I’m used to robust political debate. I think it’s good that politicians are interested in transit, that the citizens are interested in transit. We’ve all got a stake in it. So my job isn’t to get involved in the politics it’s to provide honest, straight advice; to speak truth to power; to say what needs to be done to give my professional opinion.”

When questioned about the plan after its release Wednesday, neither Cuomo nor de Blasio offered rousing support. De Blasio’s spokesman said the city was unwilling to put money toward the plan, even before seeing it in whole. The governor said he hadn’t reviewed Byford’s strategy, though it would have to be “realistic.” Cuomo added that there must be new, faster-to-install subway signal technology in the age of self-driving cars.

Initiatives for the first five-year forecast of Fast Forward will be outlined in the MTA’s next five-year capital plan for 2020-2024, which typically is supported by funding from both the city and the state governments. Some board members called for an increase in spending toward the MTA’s capital projects, especially now that there’s a clear-eyed vision for improvement.

“I think we need to dispel this fallacy that . . . basically $3.6 billion a year is enough to fund the needs of our transit system; it is not,” board member Veronica Vanterpool said on Wednesday. “We as a public have been falsely conditioned to think that is the right and adequate and sufficient amount of money to address the capital needs of this system; it is not.”

Byford, who arrived in New York to head the NYC Transit division in January, feels multiple new sources of revenue — not just something like congestion pricing — would be needed to fix the agency’s problems.

“No single funding source is going to fix this,” Byford said. “I don’t think there’s a single panacea — you know, congestion charge: ‘Good, job done. We’ve sorted it.’ I think it’s going to be a package of measures.”

Lesson: Introduction to Funding and Resource Allocation

#### Section 1: Theoretical Concepts
In this lesson, we will learn about the process of allocating resources to achieve a specific goal or objective. We will focus on the case study of the NYC Transit's Fast Forward plan, which aims to modernize the subway system and improve accessibility for people with disabilities.

#### Section 2: Practical Examples
Let's consider the following scenario: You are a member of the NYC Transit team responsible for developing the Fast Forward plan. Your task is to identify potential sources of funding for the project.

1. What are some possible sources of funding for the Fast Forward plan?
   - Federal grants for public transportation infrastructure
   - State and local government contributions
   - Private sector partnerships and sponsorships
   - Passenger fare increases

2. How can you determine which source(s) of funding would be most effective?
   - Analyze the potential impact of each funding source on the project timeline and budget
   - Assess the feasibility of securing funding from each source based on current political and economic conditions
   - Consider the trade-offs between different funding sources, such as increased passenger fares versus potential private sector investment

#### Section 3: Self-Debating Discussions
Let's engage in a self-debating discussion to explore the pros and cons of different funding sources.

1. Advantages and disadvantages of federal grants:
   - Advantage: Federal grants can provide significant funding for large-scale infrastructure projects.
   - Disadvantage: Securing federal funding may be politically challenging due to competing priorities and limited resources.

2. Advantages and disadvantages of private sector partnerships:
   - Advantage: Private sector partnerships can bring additional resources and expertise to the project.
   - Disadvantage: Partnerships may require compromises in project goals or timelines to accommodate private interests.

#### Glossary
- Funding: The process of providing financial resources to support a project or program.
- Resource allocation: The process of distributing available resources (e.g., money, time, personnel) to achieve specific goals.

#### Conclusion
In this lesson, we learned about the importance of resource allocation in achieving project goals. We explored different sources of funding for the NYC Transit's Fast Forward plan and considered the advantages and disadvantages of each. By understanding these concepts, we can apply these skills to other projects and initiatives in the future.

Lesson: How to Read and Understand News Articles

Introduction:
 Reading news articles is an essential skill that helps us stay informed about current events and understand the world around us. In this lesson, we will learn how to read and understand news articles by analyzing a sample news article from Nightly News.

Section 1: Understanding the Structure of a News Article

A typical news article has several key elements, including the headline, lead, body, and conclusion. The headline is the title of the article, which summarizes the main idea of the story. The lead is the first paragraph, which introduces the story and provides the most important information. The body of the article contains additional details and background information. Finally, the conclusion summarizes the main points of the story and provides closure.

Example:
Headline: Nightly News | May 17, 2013
Lead: It's a heck of a choice, but a show of hands: You're on an airplane. Would you rather sit next to a crying baby or an aromatic passenger? Most chose crying baby. Perhaps it's because a lot of us have kids and regard a good set of headphones as a critical investment if you fly a lot.
Body: Most passengers said the greatest amenity is seat choice. Close to 60% of people said they would happily pay for more leg room.
Conclusion: So, what do you think? Would you rather have extra legroom or the ability to choose your seat? Let us know in the comments below.

Questions:
1. What is the main idea of the news article?
2. What information does the lead provide?
3. What are the key elements of a news article?

Section 2: Analyzing the Content of a News Article

Lesson: Introduction to Bearings and their Types

**Objective:** In this lesson, we will learn about bearings, their types, and their applications. By the end of this lesson, you should be able to identify different types of bearings, understand their functions, and know how to choose the right bearing for a specific application.

**Section 1: What are Bearings?**

Bearings are mechanical elements that allow one object to move smoothly and easily over another object. They are used in various machines and devices to reduce friction and wear, and to support rotational or linear motion.

**Section 2: Types of Bearings**

There are several types of bearings, including ball bearings, roller bearings, and plain bearings. Each type has its own unique characteristics and applications.

- **Ball Bearings**: These bearings consist of balls made of metal or other materials that are placed between the inner and outer races of the bearing. They are commonly used in applications where high precision and low friction are required.

- **Roller Bearings**: These bearings consist of cylindrical rollers that are placed between the inner and outer races of the bearing. They are designed to handle heavy loads and are commonly used in industrial applications such as conveyor belts and cranes.

- **Plain Bearings**: These bearings consist of a flat surface that is lubricated to reduce friction. They are commonly used in applications where there is limited space or where the bearing must be able to move in multiple directions.

**Section 3: How to Choose the Right Bearing**

When selecting a bearing for a specific application, several factors must be considered, including the load that the bearing will have to support, the speed at which it will be moving, and the environment in which it will be operating.

- **Load**: The load that the bearing will have to support is an important factor in determining the type of bearing that should be used. Ball bearings and roller bearings are designed to handle heavy loads, while plain bearings are better suited for applications where the load is lighter.

- **Speed**: The speed at which the bearing will be moving is also an important consideration. Ball bearings and roller bearings are designed to handle high speeds, while plain bearings are better suited for applications where the speed is slower.

- **Environment**: The environment in which the bearing will be operating is also an important factor in determining the type of bearing that should be used. Bearings that are exposed to harsh conditions, such as high temperatures or corrosive substances, may require special coatings or seals to protect them from damage.

**Section 4: Conclusion**

In conclusion, bearings are essential components in many machines and devices, and understanding their types and applications is crucial for choosing the right bearing for a specific application. By considering factors such as load, speed, and environment, you can select the appropriate bearing to ensure smooth and efficient operation.

**Lesson: Introduction to Healthcare Law**

**Overview:** This lesson introduces students to the basics of healthcare law, including confidentiality, privacy, and security. It covers the legal risks and compliance issues that healthcare providers face in their daily operations.

**Objectives:** By the end of this lesson, students will be able to:

1. Define confidentiality, privacy, and security in the context of healthcare law.
2. Identify the legal risks and compliance issues associated with these concepts.
3. Explain how healthcare providers can manage and prevent potential legal entanglements.
4. Apply the concepts learned in this lesson to real-world scenarios.

**Section 1: Confidentiality, Privacy, and Security**

**Topic 1.1: Confidentiality**

Confidentiality refers to the protection of personal and medical information from unauthorized disclosure. It is crucial in healthcare because patients rely on their doctors to keep their information private.

**Topic 1.2: Privacy**

Privacy refers to the right of individuals to control the use and disclosure of their personal information. In healthcare, this means that patients have the right to decide who has access to their medical records and other personal information.

**Topic 1.3: Security**

Security refers to the measures taken to protect personal and medical information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. This includes physical security measures such as locked cabinets and digital security measures such as encryption.

**Section 2: Legal Risks and Compliance Issues**

Healthcare providers face several legal risks and compliance issues related to confidentiality, privacy, and security. These include:

1. HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) violations: This law requires healthcare providers to maintain the privacy and security of patient information.
2. Breach of contract: If a healthcare provider fails to maintain the confidentiality and privacy of patient information, they may be in breach of their contract with the patient.
3. State law violations: Some states have laws that are more stringent than HIPAA, and healthcare providers must comply with these laws as well.

**Section 3: Managing and Preventing Legal Entanglements**

To manage and prevent potential legal entanglements, healthcare providers should:

1. Develop and implement policies and procedures that ensure confidentiality, privacy, and security of patient information.
2. Train staff on these policies and procedures and ensure they are followed.
3. Regularly review and update policies and procedures to stay current with changing laws and technology.
4. Conduct regular audits to ensure compliance with policies and procedures.

**Section 4: Real-World Scenarios**

**Scenario 1: A patient requests access to their medical records but the healthcare provider refuses to provide them.**

**Answer:** The healthcare provider should provide the patient with a copy of their medical records, as it is their right under HIPAA.

**Scenario 2: A healthcare provider discovers that an employee has been accessing patient records without authorization.**

**Answer:** The healthcare provider should investigate the incident, determine whether any PHI was accessed or disclosed, and take appropriate action against the employee, such as termination or disciplinary action. They should also notify affected patients and the Office for Civil Rights (OCR) if required by law.

**Conclusion:** Understanding the concepts of confidentiality, privacy, and security in healthcare law is essential for healthcare providers to protect their patients' information and avoid legal entanglements. By implementing policies and procedures and regularly reviewing and updating them, healthcare providers can minimize their legal risks and maintain compliance with relevant laws and regulations.

Lesson: Introduction to Forest Monitoring

## Section 1: What is Forest Monitoring?
Forest monitoring is the process of collecting information about trees, vegetation, and the surface under them in a specific area. This information is essential in forest resource management, as it helps evaluate the health condition of the forest, its changes, and determine the impact of air pollution and other environmental factors on the forest ecosystem.

## Section 2: Why is Forest Monitoring Important?
Forest monitoring is crucial because forests are essential to our planet's survival. They provide us with oxygen, clean air, and water. They also help regulate the Earth's climate and provide habitats for many species of plants and animals. By monitoring the health of forests, we can ensure they remain healthy and productive for future generations.

## Section 3: How is Forest Monitoring Done?
There are several methods used to monitor forests, including satellite imagery, aerial photography, and ground-based surveys. One of the most advanced methods is laser scanning, which involves using a laser to measure the height of trees, growing density, division of conifer and deciduous tree territories, and volume of damaged territories. The data collected is then processed using specialized software to create detailed maps of the forest.

## Section 4: Applications of Forest Monitoring
The information collected through forest monitoring has many applications, including:
- Assessing the health of forests and detecting changes over time
- Identifying areas that may be at risk for forest fires or other natural disasters

Assessing early signs of relapse in psychosis: review and future directions.
Relapse of psychosis is common and has profound adverse consequences. Early signs interventions assume that timely prediction of relapse allows preventative action to reduce the chance of full relapse. The utility of early signs in this context is critically reviewed. Cohort studies suggest that early signs (e.g. anxiety, insomnia) appear in the few weeks before relapse and have modest predictive validity (sensitivity 10%-80%, median 61%; specificity 38%-100%, median 81%), indicating that accuracy of relapse prediction needs improvement. Trials using early signs to target interventions show that targeted antipsychotic medication is less effective than adequately dosed maintenance medication but relapse rates are lower than when intervention is delayed until relapse. The relative value of more complex interventions including psycho-education and relapse prevention strategies is not yet clearly established because there are few trials, some with important design limitations. Basic symptoms are subtle, subjective, qualitative changes in experience claimed to precede psychosis. One retrospective cohort study and studies of "at risk mental states'" transition to psychosis indicate some predictive validity. We suggest that basic symptoms are potentially valuable additions to the range of early signs and deserve further investigation in the effort to enhance the predictive validity of the early signs syndrome.

textbook:
Lesson: Introduction to Psychosis Relapse Prediction and Prevention

**Objective:** To understand the importance of early signs in predicting and preventing relapse in psychosis, and to learn about the different types of interventions that can be used to prevent relapse.

**Overview:** Psychosis is a mental disorder characterized by symptoms such as hallucinations, delusions, and disorganized thinking. Relapse of psychosis is common, and it has profound adverse consequences for individuals and their families. Early signs interventions aim to predict relapse early enough to take preventative action and reduce the likelihood of a full relapse.

**Key Terms:**
- Psychosis: a mental disorder characterized by hallucinations, delusions, and disorganized thinking.
- Relapse: a return of psychosis symptoms after a period of improvement.
- Early signs: subtle, subjective, qualitative changes in experience claimed to precede psychosis.
- Intervention: a planned action or set of actions taken to prevent relapse.

**Section 1: Introduction to Psychosis Relapse Prediction**

**Question:** What is psychosis relapse?
**Answer:** Psychosis relapse is a return of psychosis symptoms after a period of improvement. It is common and has adverse consequences for individuals and their families.

**Question:** How does early signs intervention work?
**Answer:** Early signs interventions assume that timely prediction of relapse allows preventative action to reduce the chance of full relapse. Early signs (e.g. anxiety, insomnia) appear in the few weeks before relapse and have modest predictive validity. This means that accuracy of relapse prediction needs improvement.

**Section 2: Types of Interventions for Psychosis Relapse Prevention**

**Question:** What are the different types of interventions for psychosis relapse prevention?
**Answer:** There are three main types of interventions for psychosis relapse prevention: targeted antipsychotic medication, more complex interventions including psycho-education and relapse prevention strategies, and basic symptoms interventions.

**Question:** What is targeted antipsychotic medication?
**Answer:** Targeted antipsychotic medication is when medication is adjusted based on early signs of relapse, such as anxiety or insomnia. This type of intervention is less effective than adequately dosed maintenance medication but relapse rates are lower than when intervention is delayed until relapse.

**Question:** What are more complex interventions?
**Answer:** More complex interventions include psycho-education and relapse prevention strategies. These interventions aim to educate individuals about the signs of relapse and teach them strategies to prevent relapse. There are fewer trials of this type of intervention, and their effectiveness is not yet clearly established.

**Question:** What are basic symptoms interventions?
**Answer:** Basic symptoms interventions involve identifying and addressing subtle, subjective, qualitative changes in experience claimed to precede psychosis. This type of intervention has not been well studied, and its effectiveness is not yet clear.

**Section 3: Conclusion**

**Question:** How can we apply what we have learned about psychosis relapse prediction and prevention?
**Answer:** By understanding the importance of early signs in predicting and preventing relapse in psychosis, we can take action to reduce the likelihood of a full relapse. This can be done through targeted antipsychotic medication, more complex interventions including psycho-education and relapse prevention strategies, and basic symptoms interventions. By staying informed about the latest research and developments in this area, we can continue to improve our understanding and ability to prevent relapse in individuals with psychosis.

Super Hero Training: Part 1

If you could wake up tomorrow morning with any super power, what would it be? What would be the ramifications of having such power? What would change in the world if you had that power? How would you change if you had that super power?

As I thought about the first question, I realized, I already have super powers. The first one that came to mind, through Christ, was that I am immortal. That’s right, nothing can kill me (Titus 1:2). The worst that an enemy’s arrow can do (under the watchful eye of God) is remove this fading outer body and unleash my full potential.

I have the power of super sight. Even though I cannot see through brick walls, I can see past time and see the objects of which this temporal world is only a shadow (Hebrews 11:13). This power of sight, lets me see reality and find bad guys and servants of evil (Mat 7:13, James 3:9).

I have a super weapon that was forged by God in Heaven (Eph 6:17). This adamantine blade can never be destroyed (Mat 5:17) and causes the Prince of Darkness to flee (Mat 4:1-8). Whoever wields it must first conform to its commands (II Tim 2:15) and then follow where it leads.

As I ponder, I realize that sadly not much has changed because of these super powers, and it is not the super power’s fault. I have not consistently lived like I have super powers.

Who hasn’t been enraged by the negligence of a super hero (see Metroman from Megamind for a case study)? Even worse is the abuse of powers for personal gratification (this is why I struggle with Iron Man, no hate speech please). I could rant on about heroes that failed to meet up to our expectations, but to make it personal, what about us?

What super powers has God given you as a believer, and what should you do with them?

textbook:
Lesson 1: Superhero Training: Part 1

Introduction:
In this lesson, we will explore the concept of having superpowers and how they can be used for good. We will analyze the advantages and disadvantages of having superpowers and discuss how they can change the world.

Lesson: The Importance of Giving Credit Where It's Due

**Introduction**

In this lesson, we will learn about the importance of giving credit where it's due. We will explore the story of Batman and how giving credit to the person who deserves it can make a big difference.

**Theoretical Concepts**

- Credit is given to the person who deserves it for their work or contribution.
- Giving credit to someone is important because it acknowledges their hard work and effort.
- Sometimes, people don't get the recognition they deserve, and that can be unfair.

**Practical Examples**

- Let's take the example of Batman. The character was created by Bob Kane and Bill Finger. However, for many years, only Bob Kane was given credit for creating Batman. This was unfair to Bill Finger, who played an essential role in creating the character.
- In 2015, Bill Finger's family fought for him to receive co-credit recognition, and they won. This shows that giving credit where it's due is important, even after a person is gone.

**Definitions of Purpose**

- Credit is given to acknowledge someone's work or contribution.
- Giving credit is important because it is the right thing to do.
- Sometimes, people don't get the recognition they deserve, and that can be unfair.

**Self-Debating Discussion**

- Why is it important to give credit where it's due?
- Can you think of any examples where someone didn't get the recognition they deserved?
- How does it feel when you don't get credit for your work or contribution?

**Conclusion**

In conclusion, giving credit where it's due is important. It is the right thing to do, and it acknowledges someone's hard work and effort. We can apply this lesson to our everyday lives by giving credit to those who deserve it. Whether it's in school, at work, or in our personal lives, giving credit is a valuable skill that can help us build strong relationships and promote fairness.

**Glossary**

- Credit: Recognition for someone's work or contribution.
- Acknowledge: To recognize and appreciate someone's effort or work.
- Contribution: Something that someone gives or contributes.

Shape of Fano resonance line spectra calculated for silver nanorods.
Using theoretical tools, we numerically demonstrated Fano line shapes in the scattering spectra of silver rods resulting from different mechanisms. One of the Fano line shapes is due to the coupling of an in-plane quadrupole and a dipole mode in a single rod. Two nodes were observed at the resonance wavelength, each of which is located at a quarter of the rod length from the two ends. The Fano resonance is strengthened when the silver rod is cut at the two nodal positions. The second mechanism that gives rise to a new Fano resonance peak occurs when the symmetry of the rod is broken and is a result of the asymmetric coupling between the two excited dipoles.

textbook:
**Lesson: Understanding Fano Resonance in Scattering Spectra**

**Introduction**

Fano resonance is a phenomenon in which the scattering spectra of a system exhibit a series of lines or peaks that are separated by a constant frequency interval. This effect is named after the Italian physicist Ugo Fano, who first described it in 1957. Fano resonance has been observed in various systems, including atomic and molecular spectra, quantum dots, and plasmonic nanostructures. In this lesson, we will focus on understanding Fano resonance in the scattering spectra of silver nanorods.

**Theoretical Concepts**

1. Quadrupole and dipole modes: In a silver nanorod, the vibrational modes can be classified as either quadrupole or dipole modes. Quadrupole modes involve the deformation of the entire rod, while dipole modes involve the deformation of individual atoms at the ends of the rod.

2. Symmetry: The symmetry of a system plays a crucial role in determining the allowed vibrational modes and their corresponding frequencies. In general, a system with higher symmetry will have fewer allowed modes.

3. Coupling: When two or more modes in a system interact, they can give rise to new modes or modify the existing ones. This interaction is called coupling.

4. Resonance: When the frequency of an incident wave matches the frequency of a mode in a system, the system undergoes a transition to a higher energy state. This phenomenon is known as resonance.

**Practical Examples**

1. Silver nanorods: When light is scattered by a silver nanorod, the scattered waves can interfere with each other, leading to the formation of Fano resonance peaks in the scattering spectra. These peaks arise due to the coupling of an in-plane quadrupole and a dipole mode in a single rod.

2. Quantum dots: Fano resonance has also been observed in the absorption spectra of semiconductor quantum dots. In this case, the resonance occurs due to the coupling of an excited state with a higher energy and a lower energy state.

**Self-Debating Discussions**

1. Why do you think the Fano resonance is stronger when the silver rod is cut at the two nodal positions?

Answer: The nodal positions are points of zero amplitude in the vibrational modes. When the rod is cut at these positions, the coupling between the in-plane quadrupole and dipole modes is enhanced, leading to a stronger Fano resonance effect.

2. Can you explain why the second mechanism giving rise to a new Fano resonance peak occurs when the symmetry of the rod is broken?

Answer: When the symmetry of the rod is broken, the allowed vibrational modes change. In particular, new modes that were not allowed in the symmetric case become allowed. This leads to the coupling of previously uncoupled modes, giving rise to a new Fano resonance peak.

**Conclusion**

Understanding Fano resonance in scattering spectra is an important aspect of nanophotonics and plasmonics. By studying the example of silver nanorods, we have learned about the underlying theoretical concepts and their practical applications. We have also engaged in self-debating discussions to deepen our understanding of the subject matter. As we continue to explore this topic, we will be able to apply the skills gained to new problems and further advance our knowledge in the field of physics.

Lesson: Understanding Real Estate Listings

Introduction

Real estate listings are advertisements used to market properties for sale, rent, or lease. These listings provide essential information about a property, such as its location, size, features, and price. In this lesson, we will learn how to read and understand real estate listings, including the different types of properties, their features, and the terminology used in the listings.

Section 1: Types of Properties

There are several types of properties available in the real estate market, including:

1. Single-family homes: These are standalone houses that are not part of a larger building. They usually have their own yard and parking space.

2. Condos: Condominiums are apartments that are owned rather than rented. They are often part of a larger building with shared spaces like a lobby, pool, or gym.

3. Townhouses: These are similar to single-family homes but are often part of a larger complex with multiple units. They may share walls with neighboring units but typically have their own yard and parking space.

4. Apartments: Apartments are rental units in a larger building. They may be furnished or unfurnished and may include utilities in the monthly rent.

5. Commercial properties: These are properties used for business purposes, such as offices, retail spaces, or warehouses.

Section 2: Features of Properties

Real estate listings often include information about the features of a property. Some common features include:

1. Number of bedrooms and bathrooms: These indicate how many bedrooms and bathrooms a property has. For example, a 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom property has three bedrooms and two bathrooms.

2. Square footage: This is the size of the property in square feet. Larger properties are typically more expensive than smaller ones.

3. Lot size: This is the size of the property's land in square feet. Larger lots are often more valuable than smaller ones.

4. Location: The location of a property is an essential factor in its value. Properties in desirable areas tend to be more expensive than those in less desirable areas.

5. Amenities: Properties may have various amenities, such as a swimming pool, garden, or view of the ocean. These can increase the property's value.

Section 3: Terminology in Real Estate Listings

Real estate listings use specific terminology to describe properties. Here are some common terms:

1. Active: An active listing means that the property is currently on the market and available for purchase or rent.

2. Contingent: A contingent listing means that the property is under contract but not yet sold or rented.

3. Pending: A pending listing means that an offer has been accepted but the transaction has not yet closed.

4. Sold: A sold listing means that the property has been sold and is no longer available.

5. Price: The price of a property is the amount being asked for it. This may be listed as the asking price or the listing price.

Conclusion

In this lesson, we learned about the different types of properties available in the real estate market, the features that make them valuable, and the terminology used in real estate listings. By understanding these concepts, we can better evaluate properties and make informed decisions when buying or renting.
