Why Would There Be No Callback After Applying For Food Stamps

I need to do a phone interview for my foodstamps in florida does anyone have that number?

1-866-762-2237

Cost to install Carrier Infinity HE gas furnace MD#58MVC080-14 (2-stage, 95.4 afue)?

Trying to see if an estimate I got is in the ballpark. If it is, I'll go with it.

The estimate is for taking away existing Carrier furnace (1992 Weathermaker), using its existing PVC pipes, and putting in the following system:

Carrier Infinity gas furnace MD#58MVC080-14 (2-stage, 95.4 afue)
Carrier Infinity Control (thermostat)
Condensate pump
Duct modifications
Electrical, gas and PVC supplies
Misc. materials, sales tax and labor

EXCLUDES:
Cut, patch or paint.

Also includes an Aprilaire Humidifier Model 400.

We live near DC, so prices here are expensive and may be more than in some areas.

Around what would you expect someone to charge for this job?

Thanks for any educated guesses, experience, or expertise.

Is Kim Myers ARTS a scam?

I don't know anything about her or her company so can't comment on her specifically but can talk about talent showcases in general

If your children are genuinely talented there is NO reason to ever pay hundreds or even thousands to attend anything. You can submit them for free to any SAG/AFTRA agent. If an agent is not interested in them when you submit their headshots, resume and demo reels, they are not going to be interested in them if they are at a showcase. The reality is, agents are not interested in beginners. They are looking for kids who not only have experience acting locally (school plays, community theatre, etc) but also have taken acting, and ideally singing and dance lessons

Also with any showcase get the names of the agencies that are attending before you agree to anything. And when you get names then CALL those agencies directly to verify they are sending agents to the showcase. Are the major agencies for children like CESD, Abrams Artists, Osbrink, Gersh, Talent Works, Origin or Kazarian Spencer attending?

At any sort of showcase, 5% of attendees are lucky enough to get a callback from an agency and 95% go home empty handed, and it's those 95% who go around yelling "scam" -- but these are not scams. They do what they say -- you pay to attend a showcase where agents can see wannabe actors and models. Unfortunately 95% of attendees are not what agents are looking for because they don't have enough training and experience. These agents are under NO obligation to sign anyone, and anybody they do sign is the type of person they would have signed anyway had they submitted their headshot and resume directly to the agency for the cost of a stamp.
