Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Schedule a date and time. Tour the chosen location’s facilities to plan for the event setup. Notify the proper authorities and complete any required paperwork.

Answer: Make sure the space you want to throw the fundraiser in is available on the day and time you want and reserve it. Leave enough time between now and the date of the event for invitees to respond, if applicable. Don’t schedule your event on the same days as major holidays or other big events to avoid conflicts and maximize the number of attendees. Make sure there is adequate space and find out what supplies are available to use, if any. Make a map of the space and draw in where different things will go on the day of the event.  For example, if you are hosting a fundraiser at an event space like a conference center, they probably have things like microphones, sound systems, and other electronics available to borrow or rent. If you’re hosting an outdoor fundraiser, make sure you plan out where things like parking and concession booths will be. Research online or talk to other people who have hosted fundraisers in your area to find out what permits are necessary. Fill out any required paperwork and pay any fees to ensure your event is legal and avoid any fines or other problems. For example, if you are holding a raffle, you may need to speak with the gaming authority. If you're selling food, you may need to check with the health department.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Wash the zucchini. Cut the zucchini. Spread the zucchini halves on a baking sheet. Brush the zucchini halves with olive oil. Season the zucchini with salt and pepper. Distribute the Parmesan among the halves. Roast the zucchini. Serve with basil.

Answer: Rinse away any dirt and debris that may be left on the skin, using a scrubber if necessary to make sure it is entirely clean. Place a zucchini on a cutting board and use a sharp knife to cut it lengthwise. Repeat with the remaining zucchinis. Arrange them all flesh-side up. Make sure each one gets an even coat. Put a light sprinkling of each on all the zucchini halves. Put an even amount on top of each of the zucchini halves. If you need more Parmesan, feel free to add it - it won't affect the outcome of the dish. Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake the zucchini for 10 minutes, or until the Parmesan has turned bubbly and golden brown. Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Place the ribboned basil on top of the zucchini halves to serve. This is great as either a side dish or a light main course.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Move indoor plants away from the windows. Close curtains and blinds as often as possible. Turn off any lights inside when they are not in use.

Answer: If your home contains a lot of houseplants close to your windows, move them several feet away from the windows. Birds may spot them through the windows and view them as refuges. They may then fly into the window in an attempt to perch on the plants. Try to keep your curtains and blinds closed throughout the day, as this will help to deter birds from flying into the windows. Closed curtains or blinds will help to indicate that the windows are there. If you have vertical blinds in your home, you should try to keep them halfway closed or completely closed during the day. Keep your house dark at night by turning off any lights in rooms you are not using. This will prevent birds from being drawn to the lights in your home and flying into the windows.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Compare the programs. Check if you grow a qualifying commodity. Contact your FSA office.

Answer:
Farmers can receive subsidies if the price of their crops falls below a certain benchmark set by Congress. However, they must choose to enroll either for Price Loss Coverage or Agricultural Risk Coverage (ARC). Also, ARC comes in two forms.   Price Loss Coverage. You receive a payment if your covered commodity is below the reference price. Payments are made on a crop-by-crop basis using your farm’s base acreage and program yield. You can enter covered commodities individually.  ARC-County option. FSA will estimate crop revenue using the average county yield. You will receive payment if the crop revenue falls below the ARC-County guaranteed revenue. You can enter covered commodities individually.  ARC-Individual option. If the actual revenue from all of your covered commodities is less than the ARC-Individual guarantee, then you will receive payment. If you choose this option, then you must enter all covered commodities. Not every commodity is eligible for price loss payments or ARC coverage. Instead, only the following will qualify:  barley corn rice (medium grain, long grain, and California medium grain) oats grain sorghum wheat chickpeas (large and small) peanuts soybeans dry peas lentils other oilseeds In order to qualify, you will also need to meet certain Adjusted Gross Income limits and be actively engaged in farming. Talk to FSA staff about whether Price Loss Coverage or Agricultural Risk Coverage is better for you. Once you make a choice, you can’t change easily.
