Cover Guide Rating Information

(M) = Mint = No blotches, stains, labels, writings, tears or splits

(NM) = Near Mint = A cover that is otherwise (M=Mint) with minor shelf wear

(VG+) = Record /Cover has been handled and played either infrequently or carefully, which is an item not perfect, but not too far from it. On a cover, this could mean there are light scuffs from sliding the record in and out of its sleeve.

(VG) = Record/Cover with minor splits, tears, labels, shelf wear and minor warps (3-5 deflection) that do not affect the playability are acceptable (i.e., a collectible record that can be played and enjoyed).    

Record Guide Rating Information

(M) = Mint = Record has luster and no visible scratches

(NM) = Near Mint = A record that does not have luster-otherwise (M=Mint) with minor play

(VG+) to (VG++) = Minor surface spots with minor surface noise that does not affect play

 (VG) = Records will display visible signs of handling and playing, such as loss of vinyl luster, light surface scratches, groove wear, and spindle trails form countless spins on the turntable. A VG record looks like it will have some audible surface noise when it is played, although any such noise should not overwhelm the musical experience.::::::

THE PROCEEDS FROM THE SALE

I am the Director of Programs for a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit and public 170(b)(1)(A)(vi) charity organization, and by special arrangement the donors have given the program an opportunity to replace funds from 2018 reductions in the nonprofits budget.

We have 3 programs that require additional funding and all proceeds from the sales are applied to the needs of each program. The students, and community appreciate your support, and donations will be gladly accepted when the program is taken nationally and placed on crowdfunding to expand the acquisition and repurposing of the designated obsolete Windows XP laptops, and the production of Senior Therapeutic Gaming Consoles for assisted living facilities.

The Mission: In the past 6 years of the programs developed for students, education, business, and their communities, over a thousand computers have been returned to duty that assisted many young people, isolated communities cross the digital-divide to complete or further their education online,

The First Vision - Excellence in Education Program: The recovery and refurbishment of obsolete computers donated to the nonprofit, are ear-marked to provide desktop computers to students that lack the resources to purchase a computer for use in their home, and help them and their families cross the digital divide. Excellence in Education's core value is to inspire students to contribute to their community by volunteering in local organizations, with the belief that their actions will inspire other young people to do the same.

The Second Vision - The Cyber Security Warrior Program: The recovery of  usable laptops with Windows XP, are deemed obsolete by the manufacturers, and are repurposed for the Cyber Security Warrior Program, and all funds for this program are ear-marked to expand the program by purchasing additional units that will allow expansion of the program to benefit students enrolled in Computer Science, Server Management, and Network Technician classes. The Cyber Security Warrior program is designed to assist students and the country by increasing their knowledge and capabilities with the availability of these laptops, and provide a student with employable skills that will assist them in the pursuit of their career.

The Third Vision - Senior Game Therapeutic Consoles: The recovery and refurbishment of obsolete computers components are used to produce a therapeutic and activity based game console for seniors in assisted living. These components are tested and installed in the custom console which is a stand-alone unit with wheelchair access for use. The reduction in cost that the components provide offset the cost of the console housing, and reduces the overall cost. The Senior Game Therapeutic Consoles are designed for an enjoyable activity that assisted living seniors can share with their children and grandchildren by playing a game with them while they are there. The mental activity the games provide exercise the minds of these seniors in the assisted living communities where they reside.

The 3 Visions Programs adheres to the principles developed and approved by the Board of Directors for the mission and purpose of the nonprofit and by promoting a cooperative effort among education, students, and community organizations to recognize that studentsare willing to adhere to a high standard that encourages academic excellence, and volunteerism in their community.

How the First Vision Program Works - Excellence in Education: Students are nominated by instructors, professors, and teachers, which the board reviews and approves the distribution of the refurbished computers to the students, in recognition of their citizenship, academic achievement, and attaining the standards of the Excellence in Education program.

The First Vision - Excellence in Education provides incentives for elementary, college, and university students to achieve their goals by volunteering on campus or in their community, and excel in their educational goals.

The incentive of the program is designed to offer the opportunity to disadvantaged students, because many students could benefit, if they could have access to a computer in their home.

Students in Higher Education volunteer their time to refurbish the donated computers, which are certified to return to duty, and offer the opportunity for a student and their family to cross the digital divide.

How the Second Vision Program Works - The Cyber Security Warrior: A critical link in the protection of our countries networks and systems is the dependency upon OEM Software Manufacturers to provide "built-in" security, and creates a false sense of security which has been revealed by the number of successful attacks on our countries networks.

The Problem of Weak Network Security Education has limited programs and courseware available for students entering education, which has made network and server security, a specialized trade that can only be achieved by extending the students time in education to achieve the qualifications that a network or server security specialist requires.

Repurpose Obsolete & Reduce Potential Harmful Disposal with the dual-boot laptops that contain 2 pen-test tools and will allow an instructor, professor, or teacher to provide a hands-on experience their students can use to protect the systems they are responsible for. With over 10-million obsolete Windows XP laptops in the secondary marketplace that can be repurposed to develop a cadre of security trained network-server management technicians that will protect the countries data now and in the future.

How the Third Vision Program Works - Senior Game Therapeutic Consoles: The country is experiencing a large demographic growth of the elderly and many experience limited mobility and require assisted living. Lower daily activity and allowing aides to provide services they need, reduces their mental acuity and contributes to a lethargic lifestyle.

Everyone Should Have the Opportunity to Enjoy a Game Many of the residents were active and now require stimulation they can use and enjoy while simultaneously exercising and improving their faculties.

Assisted Living is a Large Demographic The expected population increase is significant and requires an approach that can be used in communities across the country by engaging students and their districts to contribute to the betterment of the elderly in assisted living.
