Q: It’s critical to start with a business plan for your farm. The planning process will help you address most of the issues you’ll encounter in your business. Your experience in the farming industry has a big impact on your plan, along with the types of crops grown in your area of the country.  Evaluate your level of expertise as a farmer. If you’re new to farming, you may be able to find grants that pay for training and mentoring programs. Think about your available resources. Do you have access to enough land to farm? Consider what equipment you’ll need and how many people it will take to operate your farm. Take a look at the types of crops grown in your area of the country. You may be able to apply for grants that support organic farming, or specialty crop farming (fruits, vegetables, tree nuts). Analyze whether or not your area can support these types of farming. . A comprehensive business plan will show a potential grantor that you should be considered for a grant. Your plan should include a discussion of how you will market and sell your crop. The plan should also explain how you will generate a profit and manage cash.  Compute the initial costs you’ll incur to open your farm for operation, if you’re starting from scratch. If your farm is already in operation, explain why you need financing. In both instances, you’re explaining how you will use the grant proceeds. You may use the grant proceeds to purchase land, seeds, or new equipment. Your grant proposal may include your need for more labor, or improved housing for your labor force. The business plan should include a projection of the income you’re going to generate and the expenses you will incur each year. A good business plan will also include projections of cash inflows and outflows. Most business plans include at least three years of business projections. You may need to change your plan to meet the requirements of the grant application. Every grant, however, will require you to create a business plan in some form. Once you get your plan on paper, read through it. You may find a facet of your plan that relates to a specific grant.  If you can connect your business plan to the purpose of the grant, you can make a compelling case to be awarded the grant.  Say, for example, that you manage a profitable farm. You have more available land to farm, but you need capital (money) to hire more workers and expand production. You may be able to find a grant that exists to help disadvantaged workers find jobs. Assume that you have expertise in organic farming, but you don’t have the capital to expand your operation. There are grant programs specifically designed to help the organic farmer produce more crops. That type of grant may be a great fit for you.
A: Consider your farming background and geographic location. Write a business plan Decide which components of your plan may qualify your farm for a particular grant.

Q: Scorpios do not tolerate a person breaking their trust. They tend to be the jealous type and also expect a high amount of integrity from those around them. If you are not trustworthy or faithful, you can tank your relationship with a Scorpio.  Talk to your partners about their boundaries and what you expect from each other in the relationship. For instance, harmless flirtatious behavior may not feel serious to you, but your partner may find this very hurtful or a violation of trust. It is important that you discuss what loyalty and trust means to you both. Scorpios expect honesty and tend to give it in return. Lying to a Scorpio, even a white lie, is a bad idea. Never do anything that could potentially break a Scorpio's trust, as it is hard to win back. A classic Scorpio may need a lot of alone time. They can be mysterious by nature, and may be secretive and private about odd things. A Scorpio, for example, may never let their partner read their emails or use their laptop. This does not mean a Scorpio is hiding something. They just have a strong need for privacy. If you want the relationship to work, you should respect this boundary. Scorpios are very driven people, and need a partner who will support them. Allow your Scorpio partner to pursue their passions. If you get between a Scorpio and their dreams, your relationship is less likely to work out. Remember, never disrupt a Scorpio at work. There may be times when a Scorpio is engaged with a task for a prolonged period of time. Let the Scorpio have this space to work and think. Put your signs aside for the moment and ask yourself if you and this person are compatible based on who you are as individuals. Do you share common values, beliefs, interests? Can you trust each other, get along, and be vulnerable with one another? Can you be yourself around this person? If you are compatible in these ways, then you have a better chance of a longterm relationship.  If you also want to take your signs into account, you can find out which signs are thought to be most compatible with a Scorpio. Capricorn, Pisces, or other Scorpios, are thought to have a better chance of a long-term relationship. If you're a Taurus, Gemini, or Cancer, you may have good chemistry with a Scorpio. You may have a fun short term love affair, but things may not work out long term. If you're an Aries, Leo, Sagittarius, or Aquarius, it may not be a good idea to date a Scorpio. Again, don't let your sign compatibility interfere with how you and the Scorpio match up when it comes to values, personality, and beliefs.
A: Remain loyal and trustworthy. Avoid invading a Scorpio's privacy. Support a Scorpio's passions. Make sure you're compatible beyond your signs.

Q: Use a swirling motion with the wet float to start leveling the wall. Be careful not to press too hard against the wall so that you dig into it, but use enough pressure so that you are effectively roughing up the surface of the wall. Make sure the outside edge of the patch is smoothed out onto the existing wall with the float. You may apply more pressure on the outside of the patch for this purpose. When the patch is roughed up and evened out with the area previously existing wall around it the job is complete. Make sure the patch cures before putting a finishing coat on.
A: Rough the patch area. Make sure the new patch and wall are connected. Finishing up.

Q: It is important to wait so that the debris in your inner ear can settle before you inadvertently shake it up again. This helps to avoid any rebound symptoms of vertigo right after leaving the doctor's office (or right after performing the maneuver on yourself). After about 10 minutes, the debris should be settled and you are safe to proceed with your day as normal. After you get the maneuver performed on you by a doctor, you will be given a soft collar (also known as a soft neck brace) that you will be asked to wear for the rest of the day. The collar will help to control your head movements so that you don’t accidentally move your head in a way that makes your inner ear crystals get out of place again. The night after you have the maneuver done, you should plan on sleeping with your head kept up at a 45 degree angle. You can do this by propping yourself up with pillows or by sleeping in a reclining chair. This means keeping your neck as straight as possible, with your head facing forward. Avoid doing things like going to the dentist or hairdresser, where they tilt your head backwards. You should also avoid exercises where your head moves around a lot. You should not tilt your head back more than 30 degrees.  When you shower, position yourself so that you are directly under the shower head so that you don’t have to tilt your head back. If you are a man who needs to shave, bend your body forward rather than tilting your head to shave. Avoid any other positions that are known to trigger your BPPV for at least one week after the Epley maneuver has been performed. After you have waited for a full week avoiding symptoms that are known to provoke your BPPV, try an experiment and see if you can cause yourself to experience vertigo again (by assuming one of the positions that may previously have triggered it). If the maneuver was successful, you should not be able to trigger the vertigo in yourself at this time. It may return again down the road, but the Epley maneuver is highly successful and serves as a temporary cure for BPPV in about 90% of people.
A:
Wait for 10 minutes before leaving the doctor's office. Wear a soft collar for the rest of the day. Sleep with your head and shoulders in a mostly upright position. Keep your head as vertical as possible during the day. Test the results.
