helpful resources A properly designed API makes it difficult to make type errors. The error that the article brings up is getting the units wrong: a method might expect a duration specified in milliseconds, but the caller passes a duration measured in days. The article says that a better API is one that takes an explicit Duration type which makes it impossible for this kind of error to occur..

I've got a 90 square u-shaped building, its 5/12 needs approx 8-9 sheets plywood. I've called many companys but only 1 gave me a bid another came out but haven't heard back from them. the bid I got is for 22k for a tear off (1 layer), 30# felt, ice and water shield, up to 12 sheets of plywood, 30 year shingle and says it could be done in 4 days. I just wanna know if thats a fair price or if anyone else wants to bid on it! I'm in the Chicago suburbs (35 miles west of chi.) The job looks really quite easy as far as roofs go - but i'm no roofer!
sorry guys , I meant to post this in the business section!
Let me grab my cut and paste!
Many people come here asking for estimates on their projects, unfortunately price can vary greatly due to a number of factors which make it almost impossible to do over the internet. Your best course of action is to get at least three estimates from local, reputable, insured roofing contractors and compare. If you post a full set of quality pictures, list your city/state and a quick synapsis of your project, you may get lucky and have a Roofing.com member shoot you a very ball park price for your area. However keep in mind that the only price that will matter in the end is the one on the contract you sign.
Call reliable american or theres another guy on here thats from your neck of the woods ed the roofer.
I am from the NW suburbs, near Elgin, and the company is named. Right Way Roofing Company. (847) 426-9730
If you are closer to the North Shore, Grumpys company is called Reliable American Roofing Company and I think he just moved to a new office in either Skokie or Niles.
If you are located around the South Suburbs, Aaron B of Rose Roofing is our of the Lockport or Joliet area.
That is about $250 a square, which is probably about right for the Chicago area.
FYI I moved my residence, not my office. My office is and always has been in Glenview IL, however I have had 3 offices now in Glenview, each one a larger size.
$250 a square was good in March. After the steady increases of materials we've had this year, I can't do a standard 25 square house for less than $300 unless it's charity. However I just did a Church at 200 squares for about $186 and made good money. Having said that, I suppose you can tell that every job is different.
Ed or grumpy would be a good choice, really and educated choice.
Have them out there to survey what you have. They are both very good at what they do on a roof!
Tar, while what you posted is still relevant, in the case of this 'dear reader', a good portion of their topic had to do with the lack of return info or calls from those who have been out to see the project.
I have no clue how some guys from another part of the country can say a price is good when they are not from there. I just dont get it. That is not ment to be a hit or anything i just dont get it. Thats why i refered them to the 2 roofers in that area.
GTP, in the case of Cerberus, he may live in Houston, but he works nationally.
The Original Post date is from April 1st guys. I think this one is over and done with, or was a prank.
Let's blame Grumpy for digging this out of the grave (I would assume the customer has completed his repairs by now).
aint rite.

Look Here For Great Advice About Video Games
Helping You Better Understand Video Games With These Simple To Follow Tips What's more exciting or potentially more educational than the world of video gaming? Pretty much nothing! Video games go beyond the realm of reality and help you exceed any boundary you may face from failing grades to earning a promotion. Learn more about raising your play up a few notches with the following article. Look for one that allows several people to play together if you are purchasing a game for your child. Gaming can be a solitary activity. However, it is important to encourage your child to be social, and multiplayer games can do that. They allow friends and siblings to all sit down and laugh and compete with one another. Avoid buying the costly edition of games, unless they are a favorite. It isn't necessary to have in order to play the game, though many times, video games will have a special edition. By not purchasing the special edition you can save money on the video game and still enjoy it. Sometimes a game will come out and then a bunch of downloadable content follows. If you want to save your money, then you may want to wait for a while. This is because there may be a version of the game that comes out later that includes all of these things for a lower price. Don't get stuck paying for a bunch of extras that you could get on one disc later on! If your kid wants a certain game, check out the ESRB rating before you buy it. Ratings will tell you the appropriate age levels for a game. Before a purchase is made, this should also be the deciding factor. Play video games to help you learn. Video games are not only a lot of fun, but they can be quite educational, too. Look for a game that will help teach it if you or someone you know is having a hard time learning some concept. You will be surprised at just how much a video game can teach you. Before you buy, rent! It is not uncommon to buy a new game, take it home and then play it only to realize that it is nowhere near the fun you thought it would be. It may not appeal to you in any number of ways. Rent it first and find out if it truly offers what you want. Take the plunge into the pre-owned video game market. Many gamers will purchase a game and finish the game quite quickly. Many stores allow these games to be traded in and then sell them at a reduced cost. This could be the most cost-effective way for you to get newer games without the high cost. Try to find rich, entertaining games that have some educational value for your children. These games will not only provide fun for your child, but can also teach them something as well. This will help to broaden your children's horizons and set a strong foundation for their morals as they will be getting something out of it. Check the reviews and consider after-market accessories for your gaming. Controllers and other accessories can be costly, which can prevent many people from buying them. Surprisingly, there are some great third party companies that make quality accessories. Do some research to ensure you are finding the best deal for your money. Even if you trust your child to make the right moves when it comes to online video games, don't trust all sites. Check each one over carefully for the different elements that may attack your computer or surprise your child with more than just an interesting game. Always be on guard with online gaming. Before you purchase them, read reviews of games. If you buy it without reading reviews, it will be a huge waste of time, even though you may be waiting for the new shooter game to come out. Before putting your money down on a game you won't like, check out at least three to five reviews. Try the library if you want to try out a game before buying it. Some public libraries have video games you can borrow or try. Call your library or check their website to find out which video games they have. Try to find rich, entertaining games that have some educational value for your children. These games will not only provide fun for your child, but can also teach them something as well. This will help to broaden your children's horizons and set a strong foundation for their morals as they will be getting something out of it. Is the game you are playing have you stumped? While it is not always easy to do so, step away from the game. Take a break and come back in a little while, you will have a clear mind and be ready to play successfully, if you will distance yourself. If you are purchasing a game for a child and have no idea what type of game to choose, use the ESRB rating on the case as a guide. The rating system isn't perfect. It does give you a good idea about the content of a game. Even so, so you can ensure the game is age-appropriate. When you create characters for online roleplaying games, give some thought to the world they're supposed to inhabit when you name them. Although some players don't care about the names of the other characters they encounter, some will react negatively to out-of-place names. Not everyone in a medieval fantasy game will be willing to partner up with "WeedToka420." If your child is interested in online video games, make sure to talk with them about the ads that they may see on their favorite gaming site. These adds can entice your child to download freebies and offers that may contain spyware and viruses. Sets limits on how and when your child can download things from gaming websites. Whether you want to own a virtual pet or beat back alien forces on the Earth, a video game is out there which lets you do just that and more. Having some hints to make you a better gamer won't hurt!

Finding your way to valuable family therapists
Finding your Way to Valuable Family Therapists
There are times when your family faces some problems that you can't resolve easily leading to some degree of emotional distress. There comes a time when your predicaments almost causes overwhelming emotions that even you cannot find the right way out of the situation. During times like this, confiding your concern to a friend might end up in getting a sensible advice of hiring the services of a valuable family therapist. Family therapists are those qualified professionals who have gained enough knowledge to offer expert assistance during stressful predicaments similar to what you are undergoing now.
After you have thought about the weight of the idea of seeking assistance from a family therapist and you have realized that this is the best option to go with, you are probably now on the verge of finding the best family therapist to seek consultation. You can ask a friend or relative if they can recommend someone they have done business with. If none, you can ask your general practitioner for a recommendation or your parish priest, school guidance counselor and other valuable persons within the community. With the help of any of these persons, you would probably end up in getting a list of worthy recommendations.
Now, after getting the entire list, the next task is to set some guidelines on how you can choose the best family therapist from the long list of recommendations that you have in hand.
One of the most important qualities that you have to pay attention to is with regards to the reputation of the family therapists in the field that they are evolving in. In the same way, it is best that you find someone who would treat you well and tackle all your concerns and interests. This is important because the rapport that you would be able to build is crucial in the success of resolving your issues. Your relationship with your family therapist is of great importance in making sure that everything will flow smoothly.
It is best that you choose a family therapist that has a long list of patients and of course a long list of impressive results in resolving their concerns. The competence of the family therapist is not limited to having a diploma alone. Her record in dealing with patients is another important factor to consider.
A family therapist that is very accommodating in terms of answering questions and explaining the methods and techniques that she will use to deal with your concern is worthy to consider. It would really be beneficial to choose family therapists who are always ready to respond in case of emergency and able to answer simple queries such as replying to questions and concerns sent through emails.
While looking and choosing for a valuable family therapist to help you deal with your emotional concerns, you should never think negatively about yourself. You should not look at the wrong direction and the misconception that you are mentally ill because you are seeking consultation with a valuable family therapist. You have to bear in mind that consulting with a family therapist is just an intelligent approach to resolving issues and concerns that you find difficult to overcome.

If your organisation is using social media without a proper plan, you could be missing out on opportunities to engage and build relationships with your customers. It could also leave you exposed to some of the risks and pitfalls that can occur.
For my MBA thesis, which I completed earlier this year, shockingly I found that only 17% of SMEs are using social media based upon a proper plan or framework and the blame for this sits at the MDs door.
As part of my research, I asked SME business leaders if they had a proper strategic framework for Social Media. I defined this strategic framework as having at least 7 out of a possible 10 pillars, including elements such as the commitment of top management, defined objectives and strategy, monitoring & publishing tools and key performance indicators.
Although my research confirmed the widespread use of social media (97% of businesses are using this new media), it was concerning to find that only 17% of SMEs are using it with anything close to a proper plan in place.
It's the MDs fault!
When I investigated what impacts social media usage in SMEs and whether there is a social media plan, I was surprised to find that factors such as industry, revenue, size of marketing budget or number of staff had no real impact.
Instead, the factor that had most significant impact was the mindset of the organisation - more specifically whether the business leader (their MD or CEO) personally used social media.
What does this mean if you are a business leader?
In short, if you're not personally willing to embrace social media then you are likely to be impacting on your organisation's mindset towards social media.
I'm not suggesting that all MDs and CEOs should start tweeting or posting updates on LinkedIn every second. However, if you're not participating as part of the online conversation, then you need to at least realise that this may be having a negative impact on your business.
How can you overcome this?
Start asking the staff that are powering your social media what plans and structures they have in place. Questions could include:
- What are they trying to achieve?
- What is the plan?
- Do they have the right tools and systems?
- Have the right resources been provided?
- How are they measuring results?
- Have the risks been minimised?
After all, the business leader is the heart and head of the organisation and needs to drive the right culture and mindset in this, as with many other areas.
Why are the stakes so high?
Over the last 3 years there has been a dramatic increase in the number of businesses using social media – with over 97% of organisations now using social media to market their products or services.
The statistics in terms of numbers of users and posts made on social networking sites are enormous:
- Facebook recently reported a further increase in their monthly active users to an incredible 1.23 billion people.
- Twitter reports that over 500 million tweets are sent every day
- LinkedIn has more than 277 million users in more than 200 countries.
With all of this opportunity why do so many SMEs approach their social media without a real structure in place?
We understand that social media provides a fundamental shift from traditional media as it provides a two-way communication meaning consumers, customers or suppliers are no longer just quiet recipients of marketing messages. But, failing to make this shift means you are missing out on the real benefits that come from using social media, such as:
- Grow your reach and build relationships
- Open communication channels for support, questions and engagement
- Increased awareness of your brand
While there are clear benefits of using social media, we also understand there are some risks. A proper social media plan is important to help mitigate these risks. Without one in place you could be leaving yourself exposed to the following:
- Higher staff workloads and loss of productivity
- Reputation damage
- Legal & operational risk
- Privacy violations
For social media to truly deliver for a SME, and minimise the risk, have a proper plan and introduce a strategic framework. This is the same as with any other major marketing or wider business activity - so why consider this differently?

A "family insider" tells Radar Online that Fantasia's boyfriend and the alleged father of her second child, Antwaun Cook, regrets leaving his estranged wife, Paula Cook, and is ready to go back home. And it seems that while Paula may be hurt, she might be ready to forgive and move forward.
On their reunion, the source says, "Paula and Antwaun both ended up at Club RE:Public in Charlotte over the weekend and things got a little cozy between the two. I don't know where Fantasia was, but she definitely wasn't in the club where they were!"
Lots of PDA followed: "Antwaun was shoving his tongue down her throat and she kept having to push him away without trying to make a scene." The source went on to add that Paula never changed the locks and that Antwaun still has the keys "so you can put two and two together."
"Antwaun has lost interest in Fantasia," Radar's source noted. "He was even egging people on to take pictures of him and Paula together…he didn't care who knew."
Fantasia and Antwaun first began dating in early 2010 while he was still married to Paula.

It has been the fashion trend today for the young to wear skimpy shorts, or very short pair of shorts, and for the tops, it's tank tops or sphaghetti strapped tops or blouse.
And with the rising crime rates specifically involving rapes, one of the causes could be too much skin exposure, or too much display of one's physical assets or body parts. It is like putting yourself as bait for people with criminal minds, as they imagine things when they look at you. It is alright if you are travelling using your own vehicle, but if you are riding a public transportation, like jeepneys here in the Philippines, you can feel awkward on how you will cover the exposed body parts, to the enjoyment of some co-passengers who have that malicious intent.
I do not mean to say that you do not have the right to dress the way you want. What I want to stress here is dress decently, appropriately depending on the situation. It is alright to dress like that if you are on a beach , in a party, or exclusive family gatherings and the party is being held in your own home.
But if you are going to the church, do you think it is alright to dress like that? Churches in the Philippines have posted pictures of how those attending Mass should dress. Pants or denims are accepted for females, but they should not wear too much revealing blouses.
You should not give rapists the opportunity to justify their crimes. They will blame you for their acts, saying you gave the motive to be abused. And we know this is a crooked reasoning. We admire people with beautiful bodies, but it is not always right to flaunt it in public. It is alright if you are inside your homes, inside your compounds because you will be safer there. (Though there were cases when the perpetrators could be the victims's relatives themselves).

When I still worked for the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania I would work diligently on a nice piece of rough tourmaline over the holidays. It would help me get threw them without my family. Now that I have been retired for over seven years, I have plenty of time year around, but very little tourmaline to cut. The market for interesting tourmaline continues to be very poor. Still I did work on a little golden emerald cut with flashes of orange. A friend sent me the rough and it had been sawed. The most unusual feature of the rough was that I could develop a longer ratio emerald cut with its table perpendicular to the c axis. This lets both the dichroic colors mix together and gives a richer uniform color to the gemstone. I don't think that it is the species Dravite because it gave me absolutely no problems polishing and I don't think that it is a "sunset" tourmaline, because it did not try and fall apart on me. It did have a couple of flaws that reduced my yield, but I have come to expect that in even AAA graded material. I try very hard to eliminate any flaws the extend into the body of the tourmaline from the surface, because they can be a threat to the integrity of the finished gemstone when it is set or cleaned.
I just finished walking the 1.05 carat emerald cut on one of the first sunny days that we have had in a while. It is certainly flashy and in a color that is very different than most tourmalines. The dominant reddish side of yellow shapes the color of this gemstone and prevents even a hint of green that washes over so many blue and yellow tourmaline. No brownish overtones to force me to call this little beauty a dravite. (I have been informed that much of the desaturated brown tones in the dravite gem variety are caused by titanium not iron.)
I hope that we all have a fine new year with a bit of tourmaline color in it.

Creating module configuration groups and configuration items
In BMC Atrium Orchestrator, a configuration item is a variable that persists across multiple modules within a grid. You use the module configuration editor in BMC Atrium Orchestrator Development Studio to define its value. When its module is active, you can modify its value in Grid Manager.
The BMC Atrium Orchestrator Grid Manager module configuration editor contains configuration groups, such as BMC_AR_System or HP_ServiceCenter, for specific applications. These configuration groups contain configuration items that you use to integrate with a BMC Remedy IT Service Management (ITSM) system and to define how the Operations Actions Management modules use workflows within an ITSM system. Default module configuration items that are installed with each module provide integration with BMC Remedy ITSM and HP ServiceCenter.
Although each Operations Actions Management module contains default configuration items, you can create or change configuration items at any time. The procedures in this topic describe how to use BMC Atrium Orchestrator to create and edit a module configuration item.
To create a module configuration group
- In the BMC Atrium Orchestrator Development Studio application, select the module in which you want to create the configuration group.
- Click Add Module Configuration Group, labeled in the following figure:
- (Optional) Enter a new name for the group.
- Click Save.
If you do not enter a name for the group, the group is named NewContainer appended with a number. The first group is NewContainer1; subsequent groups are numbered sequentially.
To create a module configuration item
- In the Module Configuration group that you created in the previous procedure, click Add Module Configuration Item, labeled in the following figure:
Enter values in the Item Details fields:

It is currently believed that vitamin A, retinol, is biologically inert and that its myriad of biological functions are exerted by active metabolites: the visual chromophore 11-cis-retinaldehyde, and retinoic acids, which regulate gene expression by activating specific nuclear hormone receptors. Surprisingly, our preliminary data suggest that retinol is a transcriptional regulator in its own right. Retinol circulates in blood bound to serum retinol- binding protein (RBP) but it must dissociate from the protein prior to entering target cells. It was recently shown that an integral plasma membrane protein termed STRA6 binds RBP and mediates the uptake of retinol into cells. Our preliminary results demonstrate however that, in addition to its function as a vitamin A transporter, STRA6 is a ligand-activated cell surface receptor which activates a JAK/STAT pathway in response to binding retinol-RBP. Specifically, the data indicate that, association of STRA6 with retinol-bound RBP results in phosphorylation and activation of STATs, which, in turn, induce the transcription of specific STAT target genes. Studies proposed here will address the hypothesis that retinol can regulate gene transcription by activating a signalling pathway mediated by an RBP/STRA6/STAT pathway. We further propose to elucidate its involvement of this pathway in regulation of lipid homeostasis and insulin responses and in control of cell growth and survival. The results of these studies may point at novel targets for therapeutic approaches in treatment of diabetes and cancer.
Insulin resistance and diabetes are global public health problems of epidemic proportions and there is an urgent need for elucidating the molecular basis of these diseases and for identifying novel therapeutic targets. Vitamin A (retinol) is present in blood bound to a protein termed retinol binding protein (RBP) and is taken up from this protein into target cells by a transporter called STRA6. It was recently suggested that RBP is a causative factor in the induction of insulin resistance but it is unknown how the protein may exert such an effect. A mechanism through which RBP inhibits insulin action is suggested by our preliminary observations. These data show that binding of vitamin A-bound RBP to STRA6 results in activation of a signalling cascade that culminates in upregulation of the expression of genes that inhibit insulin signalling. The findings thus indicate that vitamin A possesses a previously unsuspected function in regulation of gene expression. Proposed studies will examine the involvement of the novel activity of vitamin A in regulation lipid metabolism and insulin sensitivity as well as in control of cell growth and survival. The results of these studies may point at novel targets for therapeutic approaches in treatment of diabetes and cancer.

Researching Microbial Food Safety and Spoilage
Microbial Food Safety
It is estimated that one in six people in the U.S. will contract a food-borne disease this year, resulting in 48 million cases, 128,000 hospitalizations, and 3,000 deaths (Scallen et al., 2011). The food industry combats threats to microbial food safety through implementation of scientifically valid intervention strategies. Through research, teaching, and extension we work to develop these interventions in the form of formulation and processing controls, sanitation and environmental detection programs, and identification of critical gaps and evaluating employee behavior. (See: Phage Biocontrol, Murcor control in yogurt, Bacteriocins for food safety)
Microbial Food Spoilage
Food quality issues resulting from microbial food spoilage are a significant problem within the food industry that result in waste, customer dissatisfaction, and that threaten brand protection. Global estimates on food waste and loss suggest that 40% of the food supply is not consumed due to pre-harvest loss or post-harvest food waste (FAO, 2012). Specifically, 25% of the post-harvest food supply may be wasted due to microbial food spoilage (Gram et al., 2002). We work to characterize spoilage biota, including bacteria and fungi, retroactively evaluate quality failures to determine cause, and determine methods to prospectively extend shelf-life and reduce the likelihood of special-cause quality failures. (See: Microbial spoilage in juice production, Food spoilage)
Regulatory Compliance, Tradeoffs, and Industry Technical Needs
Food safety and microbial food spoilage can, at times, be considered two sides of the same coin. In one sense, both are related to microbial contamination and/or proliferation and are mitigated by similar intervention strategies; only the target and its relative sensitivity to the intervention varies. Similarly, big-picture strategies for managing microbial food safety and quality risks are philosophically very similar. HACCP-based programs exist for both quality and safety, statistical process control methods can be applied in either case, etc., again by varying the target.
In other cases, food safety and quality goals are in opposition and tradeoffs exist between either and emerging issues and trends. For example, conditions designed to control spoilage and extend shelf-life may enhance the risk for outgrowth of psychrotolerant bacterial pathogens during refrigerated storage. Or, trends in clean-label and minimal processing, while validated for safety, may change the relative risk of a spoilage incident occurring. We work to evaluate the nuances in these production factors by considering both safety and spoilage, and translating this work into concrete deliverables for the food industry. (See: Quality Produce, Risk mitigation for immunocompromised consumers, Fungal spoilage)

What attracts the Rodents most towards your property?
Do you think rats are cute? Well, they are, there's no doubt in that. But at the same time, rats belong to the family of rodents who are infamous for causing nuisance and damages to your property.
Even babies are cute, but do they cause damage and nuisance in the house?
They do sometimes. Don't they?
Well, it doesn't matter, because you cannot do anything about them. They are babies, causing nuisance is like their thumb rule.
But, not for rodents. They may be cute, but they are also dangerous, bring diseases, spread litter all around, they smell foul and whatnot.
Did you know that a rat bite can cause renal failure?
Yes, now you know why it is essential to get rid of them from your house and that too as quickly as possible.
As important as it is to contact a professional pest service in your city, you also need to know about what attracts them to come to your house and start disturbing your life.
So, here are some things that you need to take care of if you do not want rodents to come into your house.
Reasons why you might start to see Rodents in your house
- Improper Sanitation: Rodents live for unhygienic conditions, they like to stroll in areas that are decorated with garbage. You can say that it gives them a pleasure to toil around the garbage dumps.
Basically, they are scavengers and will eat anything that they find easy access to. With this in mind, if there is litter and garbage lying around in your house the rats will be attracted to them.
But, they will need access to that garbage dump in your kitchen or the grime in the washroom. Won't they?
That access point comes from poor sanitation. When the drains are not closed off properly from all ends or when the waste water holes are not covered properly, the rodents will find it easier to breach your house.
So, make sure that all the drain holes in and around your property are properly covered leaving no space for the rats to squeeze in (or out if you look at it from a rat's perspective).
- Bird Feeders, nuts, and fruits: Bird Feeders are also responsible for attracting mice to your house. Yes, even if the bird feeders are hung up on the tree, the bird food can drop on the ground and this gives the rats an open invite.
Other than this, if there are nuts and ripped or dried fruits lying around in your backyard, they can also attract them.
So, as a precaution, ensure that there is no bird food, nuts, and fruits lying around in your house garden or the backyard.
- Leaf Piles, mulch or debris: If any of these three things are lying outside your house, then it is not at all good. This is because, the rats are always on the lookout for some safe, warm, and hidden places to raise their young ones.
You cannot blame them, after all, they are also responsible parents and want to give them the best environment to grow and develop.
But, this does not mean that you give them a method to invade your property. If there is deep mulch, leaves, and any other such thing lying outside your house, get rid of it.
And once they have set up a good place for themselves in the debris or mulch, then comes the time to start looking for food and a new place to live. Since your house is an arm's length from the rodents, guess, who will be the first target?
The rodents will certainly find a way to come inside the home via small holes and cracks. Hence, it is best to remove any debris or piles of leaves from outside the house.
- Indoor Plants: Where the rodents love to make their home under the mud, trees, and other forms of debris, they are also very keen to check the indoor plants.
And not only check, but they can also pay a visit to eat the fruits or any other sort of eating material that grows on the indoor plants.
Well, not that you stop keeping indoor plants, it is just that if you have them make sure that their fruits, leaves, and stems are well nurtured and farmed properly. They should not ooze out any kind of smell.
- Safety: The world is a dangerous place. We all know it and especially for the small rodents who are prone to a lot of things let alone predators.
In this case, your house seems like a good and safe place for them to come and rest. There is a lot of food, warmth, and enough space for the entire rat family to live happily.
But, this does not mean that you will leave out open spaces in your house to let them in. As a precaution, ensure that there are no open spots in the house.
Like there are vacant boxes in the garage, opening under the patio, and others.
What can I do if the rats have already made themselves at home?
Well, you can try a lot of DIY techniques and methods, but they will only help you get a clean and rat-free house.
But, if you are looking to get permanent solutions and complete eradication of such pests from your house, contact us. We are working in the pest control industry for the last many years and have helped several families live in a safe and pest-free house.
We adopt the latest elimination methods by using environment-friendly products that won't contaminate the indoor environment and won't harm your kids and pets.

Largest Arctic Ozone Hole Ever Recorded Has Closed
Researchers say the coronavirus pandemic, which has reduced air pollution levels around the world, likely had nothing to do with its closure.
The largest ozone hole to open up in the Arctic has now closed.
Scientists at the Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS) who were monitoring the "unprecedented" Arctic hole announced its closure on April 23.
"The last time similarly strong chemical ozone depletion was observed over the Arctic was during spring 2011, and ozone depletion in 2020 seems on course to be even stronger," a CAMS release in early April said, of the "unusually large" ozone hole that formed this spring.
And though lockdowns to curb the spread of the coronavirus have led to reduced air pollution levels around the world, the CAMS researchers said that the pandemic likely had nothing to do with the ozone hole's closure.
"Actually, COVID19 and the associated lockdowns probably had nothing to do with this," the climate service tweeted on April 26. "It's been driven by an unusually strong and long-lived polar vortex, and isn't related to air quality changes."
According to NASA, an ozone hole isn't technically a hole, but rather an area of "exceptionally depleted ozone in the stratosphere."
CAMS researchers explained that while ozone depletion happens regularly in the Antarctic, it isn't not normally found in the Northern Hemisphere.
"The Arctic stratosphere is usually less isolated than its Antarctic counterpart because the presence of nearby land masses and mountain ranges disturbs the weather patterns more than in the Southern Hemisphere," they said. "This explains why the polar vortex in the Northern Hemisphere is usually weaker and more perturbed than in the Southern Hemisphere, and temperatures do not fall so low."
But the polar vortex in 2020 was exceptionally "strong and long-lived," and temperatures in the Arctic stratosphere were low enough at the beginning of the year to allow the formation of Polar stratospheric clouds (PSCs), which contributed to the Arctic ozone depletion.
Now that the intense and unusual polar vortex has ended, the researchers say they don't anticipate the Arctic ozone hole appearing again next year.

Now in its second decade, the ambitious African Union–led restoration initiative known as the Great Green Wall has brought close to 18 million hectares of land under restoration since 2007, according to a status report unveiled by the UN Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD) at a virtual meeting on Monday, 7 September.
In 2021, on a date to be determined, the UN Secretary-General will convene a Food Systems Summit with the aim of maximising the co-benefits of a food systems approach across the entire 2030 Agenda and meeting the challenges of climate change.
The fifteenth meeting of Group of Twenty (G20) will convene from 21-22 November 2020 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. This event marks the first time that Saudi Arabia will hold the Presidency of the G20.
Coinciding with the first days the German Presidency of the European Council, on 3 July 2020 adelphi and the Institute for European Studies at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel launched a new report "The Geopolitics of Decarbonisation: Reshaping European Foreign Relations". This summary highlights the event's key outcomes.
Under the Paris Agreement, governments have committed to radically cutting carbon and other greenhouse gas emissions over the coming decades. This decarbonisation process has profound implications for both domestic and foreign policy, and is likely to have important geopolitical consequences. As a global power and leader on climate action, the EU has an important role to play in meeting these challenges.
How will the EU's and global decarbonization patterns impact the EU's relations with fossil fuel suppliers? A new study from adelphi and the Institute for European Studies inquires the impact of decarbonization on six fossil fuel suppliers, exploring the consequences for the EU's foreign policy and providing recommendations to the EU, including the incoming German Presidency of the EU Council.
"Food in the time of crises – how to feed the world without eating the planet?" That is the title for this year's Global Landscapes Forum (GLF) digital conference, which will be broadcasted from Bonn, Germany.
Can nature-based solutions be part of post-pandemic global recovery efforts? This webinar, organised by Climate Action and Capitals Coalition, will explore these possibilities.
Decarbonisation won't come as fast as the pandemic. But if fossil fuel exporters are not prepared for it, they will face an enduring crisis. The EU can help.
As water is the most disruptive element in the ongoing climate crisis, how land is managed plays a major role in taming this disruption. This publication shows that avoiding, reducing and reversing land degradation can have positive long-term gains in water security.
Greenhouse gas emissions are down and air quality has gone up, as governments react to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the head of the UN Environment Programme (UNEP), Inger Andersen, has cautioned against viewing this as a boon for the environment. In this First Person editorial from UN News, Ms. Andersen calls instead for a profound, systemic shift to a more sustainable economy that works for both people and the planet.
With cities continuously more threatened by climate change-induced disasters, urban planning's reflex response is to protect cities against nature. But what if the solution lies in working with nature instead against it? Architect Kongjiang Yu invites readers to imagine what cities could look like if they took into account ancient wisdom on spatial planning.
With the advance of climate change and environmental changes threatening livelihoods, their impacts on migration and displacement are receiving increasing attention in research, politics, and civil society. The issue is complex and multi-dimensional, with environmental changes affecting human mobility in diverse ways. The three reports in this series thus evaluate the evidence base for policymaking, and provide entry points for responses in the field of climate change adaptation.
Nature and its vital contributions to people are deteriorating worldwide, and the goals for conserving and sustainably using nature and achieving sustainability goals cannot be met by current trajectories, unless transformative changes are made.

THARPARKAR - People drag dead animals' carcasses over sand dunes, women fetch water from miles away, malnourished children are sick, parents uneducated, youth jobless and schools empty. This is Thar, a vast desert region known for frequent droughts, abject poverty, illiteracy, poor health and old lifestyles!
This is the area which is considered highly backward, where education, health and modern lifestyle are a dream.
"In other word, we can say that Tharris are living in centuries old socio-economic conditions," laments Suresh Kumar, a schoolteacher in at Islamkot.
According to Kumar, Tharris are still ages away from the modern life in this 21st century. They spend their entire day to get basic means of life. Standing in long queues to fetch water or travelling miles for medical treatment are the best examples to express the ordeal of Tharris.
"But there are still some positive signs to suggest that a much deeper shift is taking place at a local level," he points out.
"Such as plantation of reverse osmosis plants, development of schools, new jobs opportunities, construction of hospitals and most importantly the people from the crushed working class contesting the upcoming general elections next month," he says optimistically.
In fact, Kumar refers to recently elected Senator Karishna Kolhi, a woman from the Tharparkar district, who worked as bonded labourer for quite some time in the past.
In an area named Godhial, a large number of the women and children gathered at two separate water tank constructed by a private company, Pak Oasis Private Limited, as they struggle hard to fill their Mashkeezas (water bags). Outside the building, a makeshift water pond was also built for animals to drink water. Abdul Karim Solangi, hired by Pak Oasis Limited to make functional the RO plant, said while talking to The Nation that this plant is going to shut down within few days as they have been deprived of their monthly salaries for the last two months.
"I earn only rupees12,000 per month to operate the RO plant, but now the company has nothing to accommodate us," he tells sadly, adding, "I am the sole bread earner for the eight-member family. What should I do?" he asks helplessly.
Solangi is not alone. He says nearly 1,200 other employees hired to look after operations of different plants are facing the same fate.
However, he says that installation of sweet water plants is a revolutionary step and they should continue operations any way.
In 2015, the M/s Pak Oasis Limited installed 589 RO plants in villages to provide filtered water to Tharris. The company's operations, according to locals, were good but now it was going to shut down its operations.
They installed filtration plants to remove high TDS content from water. The largest RO plant was installed in Mithi district headquarters. This one plant can treat two million gallons of water daily using solar energy or electricity.
But now on the directives of the Supreme Court-appointed water commission, the control of filtration plants is being transferred to the provincial Public Health Engineering Department. Earlier, the plants were being operated under the control of the special initiative departments and energy department.
Deputy Commissioner of Tharparkar Hafiz Saiyal said while talking to The Nation that these RO plants had remained an entity of the government but now they were being handed over to public health engineering department and later on they would be handed over to another private company through a bid to make them functional.
"There is nothing wrong," he maintained, adding that the issue of payments would also be resolved.
CEO of Pak Oasis Irshad Hussain told The Nation that public-private partnership is most important for any development. Pak Oasis has vast experience to run these filter plants, but government has stopped the payments, he said.
He says the reason RO plants are getting out of order is that cartridges of plants need to be replaced every week and machinery has to be maintained. All this has a price but they have no interest in running the plants.
"We are only a company, which has capability to run the plants, otherwise, they (plants) will go directly to junkyard," he comments.
According to a letter available with The Nation, the Sindh government owes Pak Oasis Rs350 million.
On the last day of submission of nomination papers for the candidates contesting the upcoming general elections, a police mobile appeared on the main street of Mithi city. The policemen stopped the traffic for a huge convoy of buses and cars heading towards the city. Their lean bodies and torn cloths reflected their socio-economic condition.
The convoy was led by former provincial chief minister Arbab Ghulam Rahim, chieftain of his tribe, who was going to submit his nomination papers to the returning officer. These convoys and other political dignitaries depict how the Tharris have been living in the stone-age feudal system. These are the constituencies where candidates belonging to the Pakistan People's Party (PPP), Grand Democratic Alliance (GDA) and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) are contesting elections in 2018.
Suhail Rathor from an influential family of Islamkot says that for decades the politics of Thar is controlled by chieftains of Nohari, Rahmoon and Samejo tribes. "They basically develop some parts of Thar due to their own interest," he says, adding that "water filtration plants were also installed to serve only some parts of Thar".
He claims that these RO plants are serving only 40 percent of population of Thar. "It is responsibility of our leaders to develop this area sincerely. Development should not be done only for political point scoring," he concludes.

How To Give Your Boots an Overhaul
Normally we'd be saying that it's that time of year when you're going to have to think about getting the wet weather kit out, but ours haven't been put away this season. Nevertheless, it's as good a time as any to make sure those boots are in good order. If you've got to ask yourself if it's worth all the bother, consider that these leather boots have seen over 1450km of use, and are still good for a while yet. Just like my last pair, they're cracking across the forefoot in the same place and will breach at some point. They kept my feet dry last week on an exceptionally boggy walk over Creigiau Gleision, which is as much as you can expect from any decent boot. So this weekend, I'm going to return the love and give them an overhaul!
1 – The first step, as always is to make sure they're spotlessly clean. Grit and dirt can cause wear and tear of the seams, so make sure you get right into those nooks and crannies. Some soils are more abrasive than others, i found that from the Grey Corries and the Peaks to leave an abrasive sandy residue, while I think the Snowdonia soils are a little more forgiving (if eternally wet). You can use a proprietary cleaner, but I just use warm water and elbow grease.
2 – If they're starting to show some serious wear and tear, you may want to look at doing some temporary repairs. Shoo Goo does a good job at sealing minor tears and so on, but you will need to let the boots dry off first. These could do with a bit of sealant around the rand, but I decided that they could wait till next time mainly as I couldn't be bothered waiting for them to dry.
3 – Check the laces. I found that mine are starting to go in a few places, which considering that these are the orginal laces is good going. While they'd be OK for a while, there was no way I was going to be able to remove these and get them back without a significant amount of cursing, so in the bin they went.
4 – Now you can give them a waxing to within an inch of their life. I won't go into full detail, click on this article for that. I used the Nixwax Waterproofing Wax for leather, the new variety in a tube. I compared this to the older version in a tin (here) and while I'm still convinced that the older type is better, I'm beginning to think it's a bit of nostalga in the same way that Curly Wurly's used to be larger. But seriously, have you seen how small they are these days? With the laces removed, it makes it easier to open out the tongue and get that wax into every bit.
5 – After a good polish, the laces were replaced. A bonus of this is that any wax that finds it's way into the eyelets gets cleaned out by the laces. I don't think it does them any harm.
6 – Finally, sit back and observe the fine job you've done and look forward to getting them muddy on your next trip out.

Roosevelt Collier: Exit 16
Remember when pedal-steel and lapsteel guitars provided that sweet sound that made country music sound like it actually came from the country? That is most definitely not what Roosevelt Collier is all about. Exit 16 , the debut release from the Floridian, is some nasty, mean-ass funky business. Affectionately called "The Dr.," Collier says his music is meant to heal, but that doesn't mean he treats it delicately: These seven tracks (three more on the digital) scream and grind and kick and bite. Collier shreds, as evidenced by the title track, which goes deep and heavy at the outset before it goes even deeper and heavier. But all that considered, Collier hasn't left behind his spiritual roots, either. Coming out of the tradition of sacred steel that also gave the world Robert Randolph, to whom comparisons are inevitable but not wholly justified— both got their start at House of God churches, albeit in different parts of the country—Collier's workouts exude buoyancy, even as he coaxes all sorts of grit from his machines. No song with the title "Church" ever felt this weighty, and while "Happy Feet" sure does make you want to get up and shake 'em, don't anticipate some chirpy little ditty. It is no big surprise that Snarky Puppy's Michael League produced and plays on Exit 16 — digging to the core of any situation is what he does—and the other players, including JT Thomas (drums) and Bobby Sparks (organ), are ideal coconspirators. Collier has been called "the Jimi Hendrix of steel guitar." That may be overstating things, but his ability to churn things up is the real deal.
