The texts contain many words and phrases that I do not fully understand yet, but I'll keep working on them. And I hope the information will be useful even in this form. <dd>Please let me know if you have questions. <p> <hr> <a name=Responsibilities> <h2>Responsibilities/Consequences/Instructions</h2> <table width=100%> <td width=50% valign=top> <p> B> 2K B5<L 4J;6L=8 5AB5 <>;8B8 70 =K 1>30 8 ?@8 682>B5 8 2J AJ<L@B8 . 0 O7J 40;J @>C:>N A2>5N.&nbsp;
