Hi everyone! I am a graduate student at the University of California, Davis. I'm desperately looking for individuals who use ASL--especially interpreters--for a pilot study for my dissertation. If you have a spare moment, I would like to invite you to take this completely online research survey. Your contribution to this research will help neuroscientists learn more about how sign language is processed in the brain for those who use both a spoken and signed language. This research has been approved by the UC Davis IRB board. Below is some more information, and the link to the study: --- Study of Sign Language Processing:  What is the purpose of this study? By evaluating participant responses to this short, online experiment, we can get a better understanding of the neural mechanisms that are used to support sign language processing in the brain. Who can participate? We encourage anyone (even hearing parents or individuals who use ASL consistently) from anywhere in the US to participate. Eligible participants meet the following criteria: ·       Between 18-50 years of age. ·       Normal cognitive function. ·       Consistent use of American Sign Language. ·       Have normal or corrected-to-normal vision. ·       High school competency (9th grade) in reading English What does participation look like? This experiment is an approximately 20-minute online study, which should be taken on a laptop or computer. You will be presented with a consent form, a short background questionnaire, and then a decision task. You will see videos of a deaf person signing, then you will press a key on the keyboard in response. Here is the link to the study: https://research.sc/participant/login/dynamic/DFB825B2-1571-4380-9CBD-D666D51DAAB9 Additional Project Information: This study was approved by the University of California, Davis IRB (an ethics board) [2402245-1] Your information will be kept confidential and in a secure database. If you have any questions, please contact Anna Boyer at [email protected] or 330-357-1277.

Client changes in residential projects is very common and can affect original budget and timeline. Most time changes happen due to new design choices, material upgrade, or site condition not seen in early stage. Best way to handle it is to update takeoff quickly, recheck quantities, and communicate new cost clearly before work continue. Keeping proper documentation also help avoid confusion between contractor and client. Using reliable residential estimating services can make this process more controlled because estimates are updated correctly when changes happen, so project stay closer to real cost and reduce budget issues.
