My son & his friends are staying in a hostel in Queensland and doing farm work. The hostel they are staying in is demanding a rent increase of $45 a week each for a room shared by 10 backpackers so gaining an extra $450 a week but we can't afford the increase as they haven't always secured work. Is the hostel within its rights to do this without any notice or even at all?
The hostel may not be within its rights to impose such a significant rent increase without prior notice or agreement. Check the terms of the rental agreement for any clauses regarding rent adjustments. If there's no provision for sudden increases, negotiate with the hostel management or seek advice from local tenant rights organizations. Consider exploring alternative accommodation options if the hostel refuses to reconsider the increase. Keep records of communications and seek legal advice if necessary.
The answer to your question depends on the specific terms and conditions of the rental agreement between your son and the hostel. Typically, rental agreements include clauses regarding rent increases, such as the frequency and amount of increases, and the notice required to implement them.
In Queensland, rental agreements for hostels are subject to the Residential Tenancies and Rooming Accommodation Act 2008 (RTRA Act). Under this Act, a lessor (landlord) must give written notice to a tenant of any rent increase at least two months before the increase takes effect.
If the hostel did not provide your son with proper notice of the rent increase or if the increase is not in accordance with the terms of the rental agreement or the RTRA Act, your son may have grounds to dispute the increase. Your son should review the rental agreement and seek legal advice or contact the Residential Tenancies Authority (RTA) for further guidance.
It is also important to note that under the RTRA Act, a lessor cannot increase the rent within the first six months of a tenancy, unless the rental agreement specifically allows for it.
If your son is unable to resolve the rent increase issue with the hostel, he may need to consider finding alternative accommodation or seeking assistance from a support organization for backpackers, such as the Australian Backpackers Association or the Backpacker Operators Association of Queensland.
SOURCE: watch not keeping the right time
I wonder if someone (I usually blame my kids for that sort of thing) has dropped it and managed to get adjacent turns in the balance spring tangled. Finding out means opening the watch up, examining, and if necessary fiddling with the most delicate part of the movement - there's plenty of potential to do further harm. (The balance spring is hair spring that sits beside the little wheel that you'll see rocking back and forth to make the watch tick. It should be a neat, open, flat spiral). A.

It is definitely the little spring steel flappers in the head. They are similar to the reeds in a 2-stroke motorcycle engine -- if you've ever had one. They open up a little to let air in on the down-stroke and close off the air intake port on the upstroke. Probably just a piece of one has broken off and it will allow the compressor to pressurize the tank somewhat depending how much of the flapper has broken off. You will notice that your air gage needle on the compressor pulsates when it comes up to the maximum pressure it can attain with that piece missing.
There are two different sets of the flappers in the head -- one for air intake and one for allowing the newly compressed air into the tank. Buy them both and a new head gasket or "O" ring.
Good Luck, Richard

Your carbeurator is gummed up. Remove the old fuel and make up a new fuel mix with new gas from the gas station. Then get a can of carbeurator cleaner spray. Three short squirts in the air intake and let it run. Three more squirts every minute or so until you dissolve the partial blockage that is causing your problem.

If there's nothing in the bios, then check the intel video driver/management software installed on the laptop. Also consider calling Acer support. They are excellent.
