Questions 158-160 refer to the following Web page. https://www.greenroofplus.com Basics | Photos | Resources | News What Are Green Roofs? Green roofs are an energy-saving option for office buildings and homes. A green roof is one that’s covered with grasses, flowers, or other plants. It lowers heating and cooling costs while increasing a structure’s aesthetic appeal. This Web site is designed for sharing ideas, photos, and resources to create and maintain a green roof. Planting a rooftop garden is a rewarding do-it-yourself project, but special waterproofing and other preparations require the services of an experienced contractor. Costs vary widely by region, roof size, and complexity of the garden you want to create. Be sure to get estimates from at least two contractors. If your contractor determines that your roof can handle the extra weight of soil, plants, and irrigation, ask about the project’s timeline. Small, simple rooftop gardens may take only one week to complete. |

Questions 168-171 refer to the following online chat discussion. Colin Wikander (10:23 A.M.) I have reviewed the draft of the new client questionnaire, and it looks great overall. I would make the question about bookkeeping strategies more open-ended, though. As written, it may lead respondents to give simple yes or no answers. Midori Sakai (10:24 A.M.) That’s a good point. We’ll need to fix that. I also want to add a couple of questions about how financial and tax reports have been handled in the past. Ela Hamidah (10:24 A.M.) I could look at the bookkeeping question to see what I can come up with. Colin Wikander (10:25 A.M.) Well, it’s four pages already. Midori Sakai (10:27 A.M.) That’s true. I’ll just wait for Ela’s revision of the third question. Then Jack Neligan can put a draft of the form up on our Web site. Colin Wikander (10:28 A.M.) Is it true that we are not planning to collect any paper forms? Midori Sakai (10:30 A.M.) We might do that, but digital collection is preferable to avoid the lag time of waiting for our clients to print, fill out, and scan the forms to send them back. |

The new work sees Martin investigating mysterious events at a ski resort in the French Alps. Darr's storytelling has come a long way since readers first met Charles Martin in The Doorbell, and this installment is Darr's strongest work to date. Fans of the stories will welcome the return of Darr's wit after a three-year wait, and newcomers to the Martin series are sure to find themselves captivated. The story includes the right balance of suspense and humour, with an ending that is unpredictable, even to the most devoted Darr reader. I highly recommend this book to all mystery fans. You won't be disappointed. |
