Non-discipleship costs abiding peace, a life penetrated throughout by love, faith that sees everything in the light of God's overriding governance for good, hopefulness that stands firm in the most discouraging of circumstances, power to do what is right and withstand the forces of evil. In short, non-discipleship costs you exactly that abundance of life Jesus said he came to bring!
Dallas Willard
There is a cost to discipleship, for sure, but the cost of non-discipleship is much greater! Choosing the path of non-discipleship means we forfeit the life Jesus said he came to bring. Which cost are you willing to pay?

Asante Samuel is happy.
That�s the picture the (supposedly) formerly disgruntled cornerback painted yesterday after finally re-signing with the Patriots for a reported one year and $7.79 million. So ends a stalemate that began in February when the Patriots placed the franchise tag on Samuel and continued through July as the NFL-mandated date passed for the sides to agree on a long-term deal.
That left Samuel with a handful of options, only one of which would have kept him from leaving cash on the table. With training camp in its final week (hmmm), he chose Door 1. Somehow, both player and the house won their wager.
�Both sides are happy, so there are no winners and no losers,� Samuel said. �We�re happy we got it done, and we�re here.�
Coach Bill Belichick offered up similar words of joy, although he was initially more interested in announcing the release of obscure offensive lineman Chris Patrick rather than the return of one of his top defenders to the fold.
�I�m glad that we got things worked out,� Belichick said. �I�m looking forward to working with him. We drafted him four years ago and this will be his fifth year. He�s been a very productive player for us.�
Talk about a golf clap. But hey, everyone�s happy � for now, at least.
Samuel has yet to practice although he�s anxious, too. He believes he�s ready to jump into the deep end after working out on his own in Florida for the past seven months, but is uncertain if he�ll play tomorrow in the preseason finale against the Giants.
Yup, Samuel is one happy camper. He�s happy with his new contract. He�s happy to be back with his old teammates. He�s happy to work to regain his starting position and he�s happy with the way things worked out.
But for someone so happy, it was hard not to notice how Samuel never once flashed that golden grin as he stood in front of his locker answering � more or less � questions from the media for about 10 minutes. He didn�t go so far as to bite his lip, but you got the feeling at least a couple of fingers were crossed behind his back.
�I�m here,� he said. �We made an agreement and both sides are happy. So if I�m here, I�m obviously happy.�
As a franchised player, Samuel will earn a salary equal to the average of the top five players at his position in the league. However, he loses out on the hefty signing bonuses and other guaranteed riches he sought via a multiyear contract.
Samuel entered into a cat-and-mouse routine when asked why he was now suddenly happy with the only deal he knew the Patriots could offer him, one that�s been sitting there unsigned for six weeks. �I�m not getting into that,� he said.
It had nothing to do, though, with skipping two-a-days.
�As much as you guys probably think, being home and not being out there in the sun, I really did miss it,� Samuel said. �I missed joking around with the guys in the locker room and working hard. I really did.�
Samuel, a fourth-round pick of the Patriots in 2003, is coming off a breakout season in which he tied for the league lead with 10 interceptions, led the league with 24 passes defensed and set a career-high with 62 tackles. He continued his fine play in the postseason, intercepting two passes and returning both for touchdowns.
Samuel�s value this offseason has never been higher, although many questioned whether his performance was more contract-driven than anything else. That remains subject to debate, although Samuel didn�t attempt to discount the public perception he was looking to cash in.
�I�m not getting into any contract talk or things like that, but your fourth or fifth years are usually your prime years,� he said. �I�m in those years and hopefully I can keep it going. Hopefully, I can do what I did last year and that would be great for all of us.�
In a rare show of bravado in the Patriot locker room, Samuel admitted he has aspirations of individual greatness.
�No doubt about it,� he said. �I�m a competitor. I�ve been a competitor since I�ve been born, and everything I do I want to be the best at. I want to leave a legacy. I want (the name) Asante Samuel to be set in stone in the NFL when I leave this game. So I�m going to go out and work hard and leave it on the line and make plays like I know how to make plays.�
And for the one of the few times, Samuel honestly sounded happy.

I like to put realistic-looking content into my higher-fidelity prototypes. The main reason for my preference is that, in many cases, a design can't be effectively evaluated if it doesn't present realistic data and/or information. You need to see how the design handles the real thing.
When I was at Karos Health, I regularly used the names of jazz musicians to create fake patient data that was used in various design prototypes. I did it for two reasons, the first being my preference for realistic data and/or information.
The second is more subtle: while the names looked realistic, anyone who recognized a name like Miles Davis or Louis Armstrong would realize that what was being shown wasn't real real patient data. That was an important consideration in health care, where patient privacy is a critical concern. One of my favourite moments came when someone viewing a prototype noticed that a birthday shown for Miles Davis was correct. (In fact, all the birthdays were correct.) The attention to detail made an impression!

"My name is Colleen Roersma and I would like to tell the world about the amazing experience and results that I have achieved through Barb Meconis who is an incredibly gifted practitioner of NAET. I have suffered from allergies most of my life. In the early 90's I tried allergy shots with limited success. As the years progressed the affects of the allergies had really taken their toll on me. I had continuous swelling of my sinuses, brain fog and was limited on the type of food groups I could eat without side effects. I was desperate for some kind of relief. In a short time through NAET Barb had me back to "normal" and my body began to absorb the healthy food and nutrients with no negative reactions. Without medication I am no longer tired, I can eat what I want and am happy to say I can enjoy the outdoors without suffering."
– Colleen Roersma
"I have been a client of Holistic Care Approach since the summer of 2000. I found HCA when I was looking for a qualified massage therapist to help alleviate my back pain in my later stages of pregnancy with my first daughter. Once my daughter was about 6 weeks old, I then began bringing her in for infant massage with Molly while I got massages with Barb. It was the most amazing experience. Now several years later, and several children later, I have had a wide variety of experiences with HCA. These services have ranged from Craniosacral Therapy for my infant daughter and myself to Hot Stone therapy and Thai massage. Each and every practitioner I have had has been excellent. As a personal trainer in the health industry for over 20 years, I have experienced massage all over the country and I have never had a better experience with more qualified professionals. I recommend HCA to all of my clients, friends and colleagues."
– Kristi Tuck

Has your professional resource in Google been suspended? Not certain what was the deal? Writer Joy Hawkins talks about the conceivable causes and how to address them.
I see strings over at the Google My Business discussion all the time from froze entrepreneurs or SEOs who have signed into Google My Business to see a major red "Suspended" flag at the highest point of the page. The Google My Business rules have an extensive rundown of things you shouldn't do, however a few offenses are a great deal more genuine than others.
Before I get into which run infringement lead to suspensions, it's essential to know the certainties around suspensions.
Google won't let you know why you got suspended
A Google representative will once in a while let you know why your record got suspended.
Entrepreneurs frequently need Google to illuminate what standard created their suspension, however Google isn't going to administer breakers show signs of improvement at doing it and stay away from results.
There are two diverse sorts of suspensions
The main sort of suspension is the thing that I allude to as a delicate suspension. This is the point at which you sign into Google My Business and see the "suspended" name and didn't really be able to deal with your posting. Be that as it may, you're posting still appears on Google and Google Maps/Map Maker.
For this situation, the posting has truly recently ended up unconfirmed. Since you softened Google's rules up some way, they have evacuated your capacity to deal with the posting, however the posting's positioning is once in a while affected. I once worked with a locksmith who positioned first in a noteworthy metro region; even after his record got suspended, his positioning didn't decrease.
To alter this kind of suspension, you should simply make another Google account, re-confirm the posting and quit breaking the tenets.
The second sort of suspension is the thing that I call a hard suspension. This is intense and implies your whole posting has been expelled from Google, including all the surveys and photographs. When you pull up the record in Google Map Maker, it will say "expelled."
For this situation, your just arrangement is to inspire Google to reestablish it; in any case, the odds of that are thin in light of the fact that this by and large just happens when Google has chosen the professional resource is not qualified to be on Google Maps.
Taking after are the main nine reasons that Google suspends nearby postings:
1. Your site field contains a sending URL
I managed a case a year ago where I couldn't make sense of why the posting got suspended. Google could openly affirm that it was on account of the site URL the business was utilizing as a part of Google My Business was really a vanity URL that sent to an alternate space.
According to the rules, "Don't give telephone numbers or URLs that divert or "allude" clients to points of arrival." This regularly brings about a delicate suspension.
2. You are adding additional catchphrases to your business name field
According to the rules:
Adding pointless data to your name (e.g., "Google Inc. – Mountain View Corporate Headquarters" rather than "Google") by including showcasing taglines, store codes, unique characters, hours or shut/open status, telephone numbers, site URLs, administration/item data, area/location or bearings, or control data (e.g., "Pursue ATM in Duane Reade") is not allowed.
This regularly brings about a delicate suspension, since the business is still qualified to be on Google Maps yet simply has an alternate genuine name.
3. You are an administration region business that didn't conceal your location
As indicated by Google's rules on administration region organizations, you ought to just demonstrate your location if clients appear at your work locale. At whatever point I've seen this, it was a hard suspension, since the posting was not qualified to appear on Google Maps in light of the Map Maker rules.
It's amazingly imperative for an entrepreneur of an administration range business to confirm their posting, since Google My Business permits them, yet Map Maker does not. This implies any non-confirmed posting that shows up on Google Maps for an administration territory business can get expelled, and the surveys and photographs will vanish alongside it.
4. You have various confirmed postings for the same business
As per the rules: "Don't make more than one page for every area of your business, either in a solitary record or various records."
Google will frequently suspend both postings (the genuine one and the copy you made) however will un-check the genuine one (delicate suspension) and expel the copy (hard suspension).
5. Your business sort is touchy or not permitted on Google Plus
This one is different to me, yet as of late Google suspended (delicate suspension) a weapon shop and asserted the business sort is not permitted on Google Plus. Since each confirmed posting is consequently on G+, the main alternative is for them is to have an unconfirmed posting on Google Maps.
As per the Google Plus rules, managed merchandise are permitted in the event that they set a geographic and age limitation, so the jury is still out on whether Google will restore it or not.
6. You made a posting at a virtual office or letter box
Google states:
In the event that your business leases an impermanent, "virtual" office at an alternate location from your essential business, don't make a page for that area unless it is staffed amid your typical business hours.
I regularly see organizations making different postings at virtual workplaces since they need to rank in various towns and not only the city their office is really situated in. In the event that Google gets them or somebody reports it, the postings will get evacuated (hard suspension).
7. You made a posting for an online business without a physical storefront
The main guideline for qualified organizations is that they should reach clients. Since online organizations don't do this, Google indicates that they should make a G+ brand page rather than a nearby page, which implies they won't rank in the 3-pack or on Google Maps.
I was once assisting a bushel store in Ottawa on the Google My Business gathering that makes custom blessing wicker container that you can arrange on the web. When I raised it to Google to alter something, they out of the blue expelled her posting totally (hard suspension) since she ran an online store.
8. You run an administration or class that works in a building that you don't claim
For instance, my congregation has an AA gathering that meets there week after week. They would not be qualified for a posting on Google Maps. As indicated by the rules, "Ineligible organizations include: a progressing administration, class, or meeting at an area that you don't claim or have the power to speak to."
9. You didn't do anything incorrectly, however the business you are in is jumbled with spam, so the spam channels are more tightly
I generally see this regularly with locksmiths. I have keep running into a few true blue locksmiths who have had their postings suspended (hard suspensions, more often than not) on the grounds that the spam channel coincidentally brought them down.

Unfortunately this giveaway has now ended! Thanks to all who entered.
Try my foolproof recipe for this chocolatey cheesecake that the whole family will love!
My review of the Williams Sonoma :"Knife Skills Class" at their store and Cooking School in Bondi Junction, NSW.
Unfortunately this giveaway has now ended. Thanks to all who entered!
I have previously visited the Victoria Room in the past for their famous high tea, but was pleased to be invited along to sample their new menu and check out their updated surrounds.
I really loved the new British-India themed interior, a theme I haven't seen very much of in other restaurants. Picture gorgeous vintage couches dotted about the place, with just a hint of traditional English and Indian themes in the lamps, restaurant seating and more. I just love fusion cultures (heck I am one myself!) It's the type of place you'd love to swoon on one of the couches in an 1800's style corset gown, when the day has just become too much and only a cup of tea and cake will make it better.
Chinese New Year is coming and I am really looking forward to it! Unfortunately I no longer receive red envelopes containing money as I did as a child in Hong Kong, but I enjoy any chance to celebrate festivities! You can imagine my excitement when hearing that a Chinese New Year themed high tea created by the lovely and extremely talented pastry chef Anna Polyviou would be featuring at Shangri La in Sydney this year.
I was recently invited along to Wok On Inn at the Rocks to sample some of their dishes.
Funnily enough I actually spent several months working at a friend's company a few minutes' walk away, so it was a good opportunity to visit one of my old haunts.
Please note that I was served 'half size' dishes, so expect a larger size for yourself when you visit. Given this in mind I would expect that double sizes of the dishes I sampled would be quite massive and filling!
Gingerbread is without a doubt one of my favourite Christmas-time treats and I love to bake (and eat) it regularly every Christmas! So when the opportunity to do a gingerbread-decorating class arose with some of my fellow foodie blogger friends (Dining with a Stud, Love Swah, Corridor Kitchen, Cats Love Cooking and VegeTARAian), I couldn't say no! We were basically doing an extended version of their kids gingerbread-decorating cookie class. The kids class runs for 30 minutes where they decorate 5 gingerbread cookies and costs parents only $20 (perfect time to grab a coffee and lunch in the café next door)!
Just to get us ready to start baking, we sampled a few of Brasserie Bread's signature fruit mince pies just in time for Christmas! The buttery pastry had the perfect tender bite to it and the insides revealed a deliciously moist and fruity filling. At $3.50 a pop they are definitely at the top end of fruit mince pies, but Brasserie Bread clearly do not skimp on quality here.
Pie sampling aside, we get down to business and started 'pinning' the gingerbread dough (each students was given 750 grams). For those of you who didn't know (like me!), pinning is the fancy professional baker's word for rolling out your dough, (rolling'pin', geddit? took me a while, haha.) We rolled our dough out to roughly 0.4 millimetres thick and prepared to go to town on it with our cookie cutters.
And then there were cookies! It was very fun using all the cookie cutters I have accumulated over the years (you can see I have a thing for cupcake shaped cookie cutters) as well as swapping cookie cutters with everyone else in the class.
A blogger's-worth of cookies.
And into the magical fancy rotating ovens our cookies go! (WANT!)
Matt, our resident baker/teacher for the evening whipped out some pre-baked cookies for us that we would get to decorate. If your child was attending a Brasserie Bread kids gingerbread cookie course, this is where their class would start.
Decorating ahoy! OK, ok, my cookies don't win any art prizes, but they certainly were delicious 😉
If this were the kids gingerbread decorating class, this is where the class would end.
And to finish the evening, we were spoiled with a tasting of Brasserie Bread's quality goods – bread with all the trimmings! Smoked trout, gorgeous cheeses and Pepe Saya butter.
You can book in a class at Brasserie Bread for your child (or another class for yourself!) online or phone 1300 966 845 for availability. The Brasserie Bread gingerbread class is suitable for kids from ages 5-12. There are still classes being run before Christmas, but book in before spots run out!
Cooking Crusade attended the Brasserie Bread gingerbread class as a guest.

You will want to makeover your personal kitchen when you see these jaw-dropping earlier than-and-after pictures. All you would have to do is remove the doorways from a few of your open cupboards and sand/paint the interiors. Take Snapshots and create 3D Pictures and Ground Plans to document, evaluate and share different flooring plans and design ideas. Painting the cabinets is a fast and inexpensive method to give your kitchen a facelift. L-shaped kitchens or U-formed kitchens with an island can work nicely for two cooks, but be sure you really have enough room for these layouts; ideally islands can have 42 inches of clearance on all sides.
As soon as the dimensions and kinds are chosen the cabinets will come by particular order. In addition, it's nice underfoot which makes it easy to finish kitchen work with out worrying about sore feet. For example, marble counter tops can be installed on the cabinetry on the perimeter of the kitchen and a butcher block surface can be used on the island. Changing around the kitchen footprint is one certain way to drive up costs like loopy.
Perhaps more than every other room, the kitchen is a spot where desires run wild. A more open plan, or one with a built-in eating space, could transform your kitchen into the central heart of your entire home and household life. You have to look for a professional Kitchen Set up contractor who can provde the better of providers. An important and inexpensive approach to add more storage to the kitchen is by installing swing-out cabinets.
From excessive-finish kitchen designs with custom cabinetry, to practical pullouts and inserts for everyday use, our kitchen design professionals will provide help to assemble every part you want. As ceramic tile is tough underfoot, further rugs or floor runners will probably be wanted to make working in the kitchen easier. The identical purpose may be completed by mounting hooks underneath the cupboards for holding espresso mugs.
What's more, once you've got lived in your home for some time, you'll be much better equipped to plan a kitchen design that optimizes the accessible area, and suits your loved ones's traffic patterns and routines. When you are searching for one thing a whole lot extra price range-pleasant, a mini kitchen makeover for about $500 can go a surprisingly great distance toward making the identical previous house where you've been getting ready dinner for years right into a brand new room.

New Mexico Water Quality Control Comm'n v. Molybdenum Corp. of Am.
ELR Citation: 7 ELR 20077
Nos. No. 2422, 555 P.2d 375/89 N.M. 552, (N.M. Ct. App., 09/07/1976)
Reversing the lower court, the New Mexico Court of Appeals holds that the Commission need not seek voluntary compliance with its regulations before proceeding against defendant for civil penalties and cleanup costs for alleged past violations. The lower court had granted defendant's motion for summary judgment and ruled that the state was required to seek voluntary compliance before initiating any proceedings for past violations of the New Mexico Water Quality Act or regulations thereunder. In rejecting this notion, the court of appeals holds that the statute only requires the Commission to seek voluntary compliance before initiating proceedings for injunctive relief from current or threatened violations. It would be absurd to require the state to spend time seeking compliance with the regulations when the violations had ceased before the state was aware of them. The Commission may therefore proceed against defendant for civil penalties and cleanup costs for alleged water quality violations without first seeking voluntary compliance with the applicable regulations.

Keyless Access Controls Keep Businesses and Homes Secure
Keeping a home or business property safe and secure in the Chicago area is essential for peace of mind. Whether for business or residential use, Keyless Access Controls provide an additional level of security that is not attainable with a traditional key-lock entry. For employees that work late hours, carrying around a pocket full of keys can be time-consuming and also make them more susceptible to serious crimes and theft. Fumbling around for the right key can distract an employee's attention from their surroundings, making them less likely to notice suspicious activity.
For children who are home alone after school, a keyless entry avoids the hassle and expense of replacing lost keys. Kids can enter their home quickly and safely without having to search in their backpack or jacket pocket for house keys. In today's world, leaving a house key under the doormat or some other hiding spot can be a serious security issue. Instead of risking the safety of your children, upgrading to a keyless control lets you manage who can access entry to your home. Family members and employees can be easily added or deleted to an access list from a remote location.
An Intercom System Can Provide Additional Security
In addition to Keyless Access Controls, installing an intercom system allows businesses to confirm identities before allowing customers or employees access to a building. Companies that work late hours may wish to employ an intercom system in the evenings when staffing and security may be reduced. Apartment buildings are also an ideal setting for an intercom. Tenants can screen guests before allowing them access. This prevents the problem of allowing general access to anyone which can lead to an increase in stolen property.
With more than 175 years of combined experience in the Chicago area, Security Shop Inc. is the industry leader in providing a variety of residential and commercial locksmith services. From electronic locks and keypads to convenient intercom systems, they have the knowledge and skills to keep your property safe. For more information about installing a security system in a new or existing residence, contact securityshopinc.com or their Facebook page today.

Prescribed pile burn planned as early as Wednesday on the SFNF's Cuba Ranger District. Courtesy/NPS
SFNF News:
SANTA FE – Fire managers on the Santa Fe National Forest are planning a prescribed pile burn on the Cuba Ranger District.
The 20-acre Ojitos prescribed pile burn, located just northeast of Rancho Del Chaparral Girl Scout Camp, may begin as early as Wednesday, Dec. 14, only if conditions, including air quality and weather forecasts, are favorable. Fire managers expect to complete ignitions in one day.
Prescribed fires are one of the most effective tools available to resource managers for restoring fire-adapted ecosystems. These fires mimic natural fires by reducing forest fuels, recycling nutrients and increasing habitat diversity. The Ojitos prescribed pile burn is designed to remove dead forest fuels, provide community protection and promote forest health. Prescribed fires are managed with firefighter and public safety as the first priority.
Smoke from the prescribed burns will be monitored to ensure that New Mexico Environment Department's Air Quality Bureau regulations are being met, and the information will be available to provide health advisories as necessary. Lingering smoke may be present for a few days after ignitions are complete. Smoke will likely be visible from the communities of Seven Springs, Gillman and Jemez Springs.
Smoke-sensitive individuals and people with respiratory problems are encouraged to take precautionary measures. Information on air quality and protecting your health can be found online at the New Mexico Department of Health website at https://nmtracking.org/fire.
For additional information about the Ojitos pile burn, contact the Cuba Ranger District at 575.289.3264.

What participants say about our programs:
"Honestly, the set up of one instructor - four students is brilliant."
"I'm super impressed with the organizers and participants, and I think it's a really valuable initiative"
"[The best part of the workshop was] the positivity, helpfulness and eagerness to learn/teach of every person in the room."
"After years of teaching myself to code, I wasn't sure how I'd find the collaborative experience of an LLC workshop- but it completely exceed my expectations. The lead instructor was clear and throrough, and the volunteer instructors were always ready to throw new challenges at us the moment they saw we'd completed the current task. Solving a coding problem has always been exciting for me, but havin a group of people equally excited about it was amazing!"
Hope to see you soon!

Israel Trademark Application Number is for the name JOSEPH. Joseph LTD filed the application for clothing; footwear; headgear; excluding jeans in class 25.
Castro Model LTD has Israel Registered Trademark No. 199244 for the wordmark Joseph for Clothing, pants, jeans, belts, jackets, shirts, t-shirts, pockets for clothing, overcoats, clothing of leather and imitation of leather; all included in class 25.
The Examiner cited this registration against the Application under section 11(9). In response, the Applicant produced a letter from Castro to the effect that they had no problem with coexistence so long as the registration specfically excluded jeans.
As to the likelihood of confusion, Joseph LTD sell designer clothing at
rediculously very high prices in boutique stores in Tel Aviv's swanky Kikar Medina and in Factory 54, whereas Castro is a high street brand. They argued that the targeted demographic is very different.
Furthermore, Castro only sells their own lines in their stores and Castro clothing are no available elsewhere.
The name Joseph comes from the name of the founder, Mr Joseph Etdaji, and is in use since 1989 and is registered in many countries. Applicants are aware that the name Joseph is in common usage and have no objection to others using the name in good faith.
They consider that parrallel registration should be allowed as per Section 30.
After a hearing, the Commissioner felt that there is no likelihood of confusion with Castro who agreed to coexistence, and since the mark was already registered by Castro, its registration to Joseph LTD would not unduly affect third parties using the name in good faith, so allowed the mark to be registered.
Joseph Kaufman is a well known brand. So is Castro, but as Castro only sells their own lines in their stores and Castro clothing are no available elsewhere, I think the Commissioner is correct to allow coexistence.
However, I hope that patents writing his name on the labels of Joseph's clothes are not considered as infringing. I also think that Coats of Many Colours should be excluded from the list of goods…
I feel in an ecumenical and tolerant mood today, so have provided pictures for Jews, Christians and Communist Atheists to colour in.

At 86 years young, Mel Brooks is still an engaging storyteller and a child at heart, something that's apparent in Mel Brooks Strikes Back!, an intimate conversation with BBC creative director Alan Yentob. In addition to classic clips from such TV series as Your Show of Shows, a routine of "The 2,000 Year Old Man" with Carl Reiner, and famous scenes from his numerous films, Brooks also tells humorous anecdotes from his childhood in Brooklyn and the early days of his career. Brooks is one of few artists to have received an Oscar, Grammy, Emmy and Tony, but remains humble enough to tell a story about a tomato sandwich that manages to bring the house down. "It's good to be the king."
Mel Brooks Strikes Back! debuts tonight on HBO at 9pm ET/PT. Hit the jump for more.
If you're not a fan of Brooks or his films, you're probably not going to get a lot out of this special. However, if you're like me and celebrate the funnyman's entire career as actor/writer/director/producer, then this hour will delight you with little-known facts from Brooks' life as well as retrospective looks at some of his greatest works. Mel Brooks Strikes Back! is a very intimate and pared down interview which makes it feel almost as if Brooks is in your living room sharing stories over a bowl of veggies and sour cream.
You might think you know Brooks' films inside and out, but he reveals little stories about the production of his pictures (such as the role of "The Waco Kid" in Blazing Saddles originally belonging to Gig Young, who was suffering from alcohol withdrawal during the shoot and was replaced by Gene Wilder), his cameos (Wilder would only sign on to Young Frankenstein if Brooks stayed behind the camera) and even his first experience being star-struck (a hilarious anecdote featuring his lunches with screen great, Cary Grant). All in all, Mel Brooks Strikes Back! is a nice little conversation with one of Hollywood's greatest living legends; for fans of Brooks, it's certainly worth a watch.

NEW YORK (WLNY) — Relationships — whether personal or professional — play an important role in our lives.
But some relationships can end up being toxic, and it's not always easy to end them.
Family therapist, Dr. Paul Hokemeyer, visited the Couch to talk with us about what this can mean for you.
More: Love Advice: Hormones & Happiness With Dr. John Gray
Does your relationship drain you? Do you constantly feel off-base? Are you always on the defensive?
These are all signs you could be in a toxic relationship. Check yourself for signs of what Hokemeyer calls "relationship addiction" signs.
More: When To Text, When To Have Sex & More Tips For Landing Mr. Right
"We can get addicted to relationships in the same way we get addicted to substances," he said. "When we get love, acceptance and validation, our bodies and minds respond in ways that mirror the same endorphin rush that a person gets from cocaine."
This drug-like addiction is what makes toxic relationships so hard to break away from.
"We think we need the approval, validation and love of a person who once gave it to us. We keep chasing the original high, hoping it will come back to us," Hokemeyer said.
"We deny the truth of the situation, because it's painful."
Be willing to admit there is an issue, limit your time and exposure to certain people who trigger negative emotions in you, and believe in yourself that you fill find a more loving place.

So the festival season has well and truly begun. This weekend alone you had Radio 1's Big Weekend, Common People and Mutiny Music Festival to name a few. But this bank holiday my attention was turned to We Are Fstvl; a house music festival in Upminster, East London.
Me and my best girl friends got tickets for the Saturday – Fat Boy Slim sold it for us – have you seen him before? We decided to make a weekend of it so the girls came up to stay with me. Now I have to admit I'm not really a festival goer – I would love to do Glastonbury but apart from some local festivals (Fairport mainly) I hadn't caught the festival bug…until now.
Packing your bag for a day festival is much easier than a weekend – money, a bit of make up, hand gel, tissues, hair tie, sunglasses & your ticket then you're about ready to go. I wore jeans, a backless body suit and pumps – I didn't want to be cold and I love a backless item so it was a perfect outfit for me but some people went all out on the crazy scale. I think festivals are a place that you can get away with wearing something you wouldn't necessarily wear walking down the street on a normal day. There were boys wearing patterned leggings and girls dressed as aliens but the great thing is no one cares because it's a festival (where anything goes).
Now you can't go to a festival without having a few cheeky ciders beforehand so 11am we were ready to go and had a few ciders, and one for the road. This was the first festival that I have been to where you had to buy drinks tokens to exchange for drinks but it worked really well and made the queue go a lot quicker! There were plenty of food stalls ranging from Mexican – Thai – Chicken – Pizza – Ice Cream, but my go to food at a festival is a burrito!
The festival was split into different zones: Ancient Realm, Whse District, Favela Fiesta, Island Hideaway and Disco Tropics VIP. We didn't get VIP tickets as we weren't too fussed about the extra privileges – especially as we were only there for one day. Obviously I was drawn to the Favela Fiesta zone – it was vibrant, had a helter skelter, a photo booth and two tents! The main stage was open, in the Ancient Realm zone, Whse District contained the techno warehouse and then Island Hideaway – which we never found! But it was huge and we had plenty of time to run around the different zones and experience everything.
Now the important bit, the music! Throughout the day we saw Amine Edge & Dance, DJ Fresh, Philip George, MK, Becky Hill, Hannah Wants, Eats Everything and of course Fat Boy Slim who closed the festival. The crowds were huge and everyone was having an awesome time. It was so much fun listening to lots of great DJs, partying the day away, singing and of course lots of dancing! My favourite. I think my whole body ached the next day when I woke up.
So that's me for now, I don't have any more festivals planned this summer but its never too late! Watch this space and let me know your festival plans!

Assassin's Creed II Cheats
This page contains a list of cheats, codes, Easter eggs, tips, and other secrets for Assassin's Creed II for Xbox 360. If you've discovered a cheat you'd like to add to the page, or have a correction, please click EDIT and add it.
Lower Your Notoriety
If you're close to getting a "Notorious" rating, go to a Herald and bribe him. After you bribe him just steal the money back.
From the Deep
In Santa Maria Delle Visitazione, in the Assassin's Tomb, you'll come across a large flooded room just before one of the Armor of Altair seals. Pull the lever and peer into the water. Wait a minute or so and you'll see a shadow below. Pull the lever again and peer into the murky depths once more and a tentacle will reach out to grab (and miss) Ezio.
Air Walk
You must have the throwing knives equipped for this. Hold RT + X and run off of a roof. You will run in a straight line in mid air! Switch weapons or release the buttons to fall.
The following items can be unlocked by performing the actions below:
- Climb Leap Ability - Complete Rosa's mission "Monkey See, Monkey Do" in Sequence 7 to earn the climb leap ability. With this ability, you can make longer jumps while climbing, letting you grab hand holds that'd normally be out of reach.
- Disarm Combat Technique - Complete Mario's "Evasive Maneuvers" mission in Sequence 5 to unlock the disarm technique. Disarms let you counter incoming attacks from weapons that are normally too heavy to counter (like axes).
Free Medicines and Throwing Knives
If you've got room in your inventory for more medicines or throwing knives, loot dead bodies and you'll occasionally find these items for free.
The following items can be unlocked by performing the actions below:
- Condottiero War Hammer - Collect 50 hidden feathers and the Condottiero War Hammer will become available in the blacksmith's shop in the Villa Monteriggioni.
- Auditore Cape - Collect 100 hidden feathers and then talk to Mario in the Villa Monteriggioni. He'll award you the Auditore Cape.

A collection of the herbal components is a big challenge for drug manufacturing companies. There are several ways of collecting raw materials but having strict principles. If we go through the classics regarding the collection of raw materials, many things are not possible my modern age so I am just ignoring those parts.
Guide Lines For Collecting Raw Herbal Materials:Seasons for collecting raw materials
- Stems : Varsa and Basant Ritu (Plants should be in its maturity stage)
- Leaves: Varsa & Basant Ritu (Plants should be mature and the middle time in between blooming and maturity of fruits)
- Roots: Grishma & Sishir Ritu (When leaves started falling or new leaves stared growing)
- Bark: Bark should be collected in the Sarad Ritu.
- Latex: Latex should be collected in the Sarad Ritu.
- Flowers: During the time of blooming.
- Fruits : During seasons of fruiting.
- Sar: It should be collected on Hemanta Ritu.
- Kanda: It should be collected on the Sarad Ritu.
Other Guidelines For Collection Of Herbs:
- Some alternative season are mentioned in Rajnighantu but the above list is considered as the best.
- A collection of drugs according to the virya (potency) of a herb. Like Herbs having shita virya should be collected in the Visarga kaal. Again Herbs having ushna virya should be collected on Adankaal.
- A collection of herbs according to their karma (way to work in the body) According to Sarangadhar Vaman and Virechan Herbs should be collected in the Vasant Ritu. And all other drugs should be collected in the Sarad Ritu and in the mature state.
- Few medicinal plants are described separately for collecting them without any laws.
- Use of locally collected Herbs is found more effective for a local individual.
- A collection of herbs like fruits, vegetables are described separately with special focused on their quality at the time of collection. All partially damaged or defective or contaminated Herbs should avoid.

"Clinton Hill Apartments' Microturbines Cogenerate Electricity," a press release cryptically alerted us this morning.
"You don't know what that means?" asked Clinton Hill Apartments owner Ed Friedman. "I'm embarrassed for you"
David Ahrens, director of Brooklyn's Energy Spectrum, was more helpful: "Microturbines, basically like a small little jet engine, fire from natural gas. They simultaneously produce heat for hot water and electricity, which is interconnected with the Con Ed grid… We anticipate this project will be the equivalent of taking 1,000 cars off the road every year."
Why? The new energy and heat will mean the apartments' old boilers ("which burn Number 6 oil," Mr. Friedman pipes in, not a wonderful thing") can be intermittently turned off.
"Which means emissions will be reduced," declares Mr. Ahrens.
Thankfully, the $2 million project was partially subsidized by the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority, plus the Clean Air Communities group.
Will other Brooklyn co-ops be following suit?
Mr. Friedman offers: "They'd be wise to."

CEO's Corner: Paul Mitchell's DeJoria Talks Philanthropy, Animal Testing, More
The CEO of John Paul Mitchell Systems has spent the past three decades building the company's Paul Mitchell brand into a business that grosses about $900 million annually. At the same time, he's taken been an activist for causes ranging from pediatric medical treatment to AIDS awareness. More recently, he has focused his efforts on helping eliminate hunger and improve health among the people of America's Appalachian region.
DeJoria, a Los Angeles native who will turn 67 in April, worked as a janitor, encyclopedia salesman, tow truck driver and even had a stint in the Navy before taking on a marketing position with Time magazine, and eventually moving into the hair-care industry. In 1980, DeJoria and hairdresser-friend Cyril Mitchell started selling products under the Paul Mitchell brand (Mitchell, who took on the name "Paul" as his professional moniker, died of pancreatic cancer in 1989) with a promise to salon-owner customers that the brand would be sold exclusively through professional salons, and would never be found on retailers' shelves.
DailyFinance talked with DeJoria, who signs off phone conversations with a wish of "peace, love and happiness," about his businesses -- he also co-founded Patron tequila in 1989 -- and his causes.
DailyFinance: Tell me about Grow Appalachia?
DeJoria: We're trying to help the people of Appalachia help themselves. When you don't have any money, it's poverty eating -- people are shoving all of the wrong foods into their stomachs. So we planted 100 gardens, paid for tools, seeds, fertilizer and full-time people to show these people how to feed themselves on all different kinds of terrains. With the gardens we planted last year, 2,700 will eat this year. Our goal is to end hunger in 50% of Appalachia, and we may feed close to 10,000 people.
You come from modest means, yet you've taken a philanthropic approach since founding your company. What has been the philosophy behind that?
When I was a kid in the early 1950s, my mother, brother and I would take the streetcar to downtown L.A. for a nickel to see all of the Christmas decorations at stores like the May Company, Bullocks and the Broadway. My mom would take a dime, which was a lot of money for us at the time, and make each of us hold half the dime and put it in the Salvation Army Bucket. The lesson was that, no matter how bad you have it, someone's worse off than you. So that impregnated something, and I started with so little, so I feel so blessed with the success I've had. Success not shared is failure. When you get enough, you bring the rest of the world along.
A company I used to work for tested its products on marmosets, and I really felt sorry for the marmosets in that cage. They kept injecting them with stuff. So I said, 'Let's experiment on ourselves.' Everything we make, we experiment in our own eyes. Some of the big companies like Sebastian and L'Oreal attacked us on it, saying, 'We would never stoop so low' (to test on humans). Now, the rest of the industry doesn't want to be known for animal testing.
Some would call a visit to a hair salon a luxury item of sorts. How has your company fared during the recent economic downturn?
A lot of salons have gone out of business, but we've grown each year. Last year, we had double-digit growth. We're the only major company in the professional beauty industry that's only in the professional beauty industry. My competitors are bigger in the retail industry. So the salons have been more supportive of us because they know we're only in this industry for them. If you ever see Paul Mitchell in a drug store or supermarket, it's counterfeit.
Have you ever considered branching out into retail or going public?
No. If Paul Mitchell went open market, I'd double my business overnight. But I always said (to salon owner-customers) that if we were lucky enough to make it, we'll be the only ones that never sold you out. And companies like Jhirmack, Nexxus -- people fell out left and right for the money. But the people who brought me to the dance deserve to stay at the dance.
What made you start Patron tequila?
We started Patron in 1989. I told (Patron Co-Founder and DeJoria home architect) Martin Crowley to go down to Mexico and bring back the tequila that the aristocrats drink. It was very mellow, and I said that if we could do it in recycled glass and label it with recycled paper so it would be environmentally friendly, and if we could make it a little smoother than what we'd brought back, I'd pay for a thousand cases, or 12,000 bottles. We started to sell it in the U.S. for $38 a bottle, so it took off slowly. But people want to treat themselves.

Bainbridge Swim Champ Heading to Junior Nationals
It didn't take long for Andrew McCarthy to decide he wanted to swim in the Short Course Junior National Championships.
The Bainbridge High junior qualified for the meet at the Senior Sectionals while swimming for Bainbridge Island Swim Club this summer at King County Aquatic Center in Federal Way.
McCarthy knew right away he wanted to make the trip to Atlanta for junior nationals, which begin today with the 500-yard freestyle at the Georgia Tech Aquatic Center. He will also swim in the mile (1,650) on Saturday.
"I think junior nationals is a really big deal," McCarthy said. "To even qualify is pretty big, so everybody from my high school coaches (to family) totally support me going down there."
Since qualifying during the summer, McCarthy averaged 11,000 yards a day during practice to build his endurance for the mile — something McCarthy feels "is more my event." Tapering brought him down to about 6,000 yards.
"I'm feeling pretty good," he said, adding he's confident his coaches have put him in a good position to do well at the meet.
McCarthy is no stranger to competition either. He won the 500 free last year at the Class 3A state swim meet, giving Bainbridge the first individual boys title in that event in the school's history.
McCarthy said his excitement has increasingly turned into nervousness each day the meet gets closer.
"It's a very nerve-wracking experience, actually," he said.
Although he's pretty sure he's not going to win a national title, McCarthy is ready to take on some of the best young swimmers in the country.
"I'm going for the competition," he said. "It's going to be fantastic."

Hi I know this thread is from a couple of years back: 20737S VBat short to GND
but was there ever a resolution as we have had 2 chips fail?
One shorted out vBat to GND and the other suddenly pulls low the SPI and serial lines meaning it fails to communicate.
These are probably quality issues occurred during the manufacturing of the module. We have a stringent control process which we constantly share and work with our suppliers. Please approach our representatives in UK to initiate an RMA for these parts.

Formation of BRICS Development Bank will add a new chapter in global multilateral developmental agency having far reaching implications for other multilateral developmental banks such as World Bank , ADB etc which are working under hegemony of US, West and Japan. It will influence existing multilateral developmental banks to mend their ways in granting loans and aids to emerging economies and developing and least developing countries on more attractive terms and conditions without discrimination. The equal equity in BRICS Bank is a big achievement as no country can exercise hegemony. However, China is big gainer in getting its Head Quarter at Sanghai.
The concept proposed by Elvira Nabiulin, president of Russia's Central Bank; that all negotiations with the BRICS should bypass the US dollar will have far reaching implications for international developmental and financial institutions and many international currencies.

Maybe try a wood stain or paint wash or pickle (thinly watered down paint)Delete

I'm a huge fan of the India Pale Ale style, but I've never tried an Imperial IPA. I decided to start with one of the strongest beers on the market: Dogfish Head 120 Minute IPA. I was surprisingly unimpressed by this beer, but that might be my own fault for not truly being ready for it. Certainly a beer of this type is an acquired taste, so how credible is my critique?
Since the beer has a gravity of 45 degrees Plato, I wasn't at all surprised that it poured extremely smooth like very thin syrup. The beer has a very cloudy complexion without much carbonation apparent. It formed a small, off-white, soapy head that didn't leave much lacing on the glass and dissipated quickly.
The aroma was not what I was expecting, with a dry, subdued scent with just the slightest hint of citrus notes. The high alcohol content was detectable, but wasn't off-putting.
I honestly didn't know what to expect Dogfish Head 120 Minute IPA to taste like. I have drank other IPA beers that rank in the 60s on the International Bitterness Unit scale, so how bitter would a 120 IBU beer be?
I was fully expecting (and hoping for) an all-out assault of hop bite on my palate, but what I got was a seemingly gimmicky-tasting beer with a spicy, vanilla or butterscotch rum-like taste. The taste started out citrusy and juicy but then became dry and syrup-like. In fact, its taste is apparently derived not from its hops but from its malts and flavorings. Dogfish Head's taste is extremely sugary and sweet, making the beer reminiscent of some kind of rum cocktail.
The high alcohol content accounts for a significant portion of the flavor, but isn't overwhelming. I often find IPAs to be refreshing because of their citrusy qualities, but this just made me thirsty.
For a beer whose existence is based on the fact it's so strong, Dogfish Head 120 Minute IPA is remarkably smooth. Because of its potency I did notice a slight tingling, almost burning sensation in the bottom of my throat, but it wasn't any worse than a generic mixed drink.
There's no reason to criticize this beer for its weight since it comes with the territory of being an imperial brew. I have drank very potent beers of around 7% ABV, but I've never come close to drinking a beer with nearly quadruple the alcohol of the average lager. Dogfish Head is 20% ABV which means it's absolutely going to take its toll no matter who you are. I began to feel a buzz only halfway through my glass and it was in full effect by the time I finished it. However, this beer didn't get me intoxicated and that's fine because I drink beer for the appreciation of the craft and taste, not for the chemical effects.
At 450 calories Dogfish Head is practically a meal in and of itself. Then again at $10 per 12oz bottle it's not the kind of beer you're going to be drinking very often, so it definitely works as an after-dinner treat.
I think I may have done myself a disservice by not starting with Dogfish Head's 60 Minute IPA and working my up to their 90 Minute IPA and eventually to the extreme brew that is 120 Minute IPA. Even so, I thought the taste could have been better since it seemed a little gimmicky to me.
Grade: 6/10

During the implementation phase the project often has to deal with unforeseen events and thus update plans along the way. Project deliveries must be received and accepted by the line where the profits are to be reaped.
In the implementation phase, the project manager must:
- Coordinate and delegate tasks
- Provide monthly reports on the progress towards achieving goals (time, resources, user involvement and profits).
- Handle stakeholders
- Contribute in ensuring continuous anchorage and facilitate profit realisation in collaboration with the project owner
- Ensure that deliveries are completed at the right level of quality and that they are approved for reception in the line.
- Ensure that deliveries are transferred to the line
- Ensure that the project provides adequate training when transferring deliveries to the line
The project manager reports to the project owner on the 30th of each month, starting with the month following the project start-up. If the project is part of the project portfolio, the portfolio office must receive a copy of the monthly report.
The implementation phase is completed when the project owner has approved project deliveries (BP3) in accordance with the project plan.

There is, literally, no quit in Nick Wey. After a wild crash last year at Millville sent his bike into the Spring Creek drink, Nick was left with devastating injuries to his hip and back. No one would have blamed Wey for calling it curtains on a pro career that began in 1997, but his love of the sport, and racing, is shining through. He's healed up, and put his own effort together for this summer and beyond. Here are some details.
Racer X: It's been a long time since we saw you on the track. But you're coming to Hangtown this weekend. How's everything going?
Nick Wey: It's been a lot of work to recover from my injury that I had at Millville. I've been riding a lot and doing a lot of testing with Pro Circuit and Showa, and these guys are doing a lot of work for me, so I appreciate their help. Big Nasty and Mandingo Pickles are behind me 100 percent so he's been working around the clock. And I have my dad here now so my neighbors actually put some new steps into the truck tonight. A lot of odds and ends stuff we're finishing up this week. But, yeah, I'm excited about getting back to racing. Riding a Kawasaki again is awesome for me and I'm excited.
Physically how are you? Obviously you need to build up your strength. But physically on a dirt bike, you feel 100 percent?
Well, I definitely still have some strength for me to gain still but it's a long process. The doctors say that I won't be as strong as I was when I hurt myself until like a year after the injury. Obviously I've been working super hard to get back, but I know obviously the injury that I had was serious. I don't want to lack strength so I'm putting myself out there to get injured but at the same time I'm ready to get back out there and race. I just need to continue doing my rehab so I'm strong enough to try to prevent another injury, I guess.
I've gotten a few tweets and emails, what team is Nick Wey on? So please explain what team you are on.
Mafia Moto Crew, Team Mafia Moto Crew.
Nick and his ride.
Courtesy MSR
It's all your own deal.
So all your old-time sponsors stuck behind you? It must be nice to still have that. I imagine no one told you no when you called and asked for support?
Obviously a lot of people are into sponsoring me with products and such. Right now in this particular industry it's tough to get funding per se to make it make sense. But exactly what you alluded to, with MSR and Tucker Rocky sticking behind me, it makes a lot of sense for me to get back out there and try to sell some MSR stuff, like I've been doing over the years. Had Motosport.com come on, so that's cool. And then Arnette and Gaerne. There's kind of a whole list of folks that have stepped up to get behind me as well as a long time friend in Vaughn Smith who owns MMCR, which is Mid- Michigan Concrete Recycling. It's a group effort of people making it work. And really I couldn't do it without Big Nasty, my mechanic. He's been working around the clock and I really appreciate him. Kawasaki helps me a little bit and like I said Pro Circuit and Showa has been testing with me a bunch. So, I'm excited.
Why come back? No one would ever say, he shouldn't have quit. Everyone would understand if you did hang up. It was a pretty serious injury.
I don't know, it's just one of those things. I really enjoy riding and racing. The last few years I've surprised myself here and there as to what I can do, with my speed. I just feel like maybe I needed a little bit more support and maybe I could do this and that. It doesn't really make a lot of sense to put a lot of money into your racing when somebody else who's not doing that much for you gets the credit, to be honest with you. So I figure if I'm going to do it I need to do it right. I have, like, seven bikes. I've got six sets of kit suspension. I'm doing it the way it needs to be done.
Obviously I'm going to race this outdoor season. I realize that coming back from not racing for so long is going to be tough, but I'm going to stay in it. I expect to be top ten by the end of the series in the points. And moving into Supercross next year I feel like I'll be back to 100 percent. I feel like I'm a better supercross rider but at the same time I've put a lot of preparation for this outdoor series, too. I'm looking forward to getting things going and chipping away at where I need to be every week.
Get your autograph stock starting this weekend.
I'm not sure it matters how you do for the fans, you're obviously coming back because you want to, first. But, I think you'll be a popular guy in the pits. Your motorhome setup will be sweet. People will dig it.
I'm excited. I'm going to have some different stuff with my bike. I got fluorescence green plastic coming from Motosport. I'm into doing something that the fans will notice. I'm excited about getting back to the races and hanging out with the fans for sure and seeing what everybody's reaction to how my setup looks. Obviously I've spent a lot of time with the design and this and that. I'm pretty excited about how clean it looks and everything's pretty straightforward and pretty basic design, as you know as a model of my Mafia Moto Crew brands. Coinciding with the beginning of the Nationals I'll have my MafiaMotoCrew.com live so people can buy stuff directly from the website, which will be cool. So I'm excited to get out there and mix it up with everybody for sure.

Water Damage Restoration Process (Austell GA)
Water damage restoration is a complex task that requires a range of strategies and devices in order to guarantee that the job is correctly done. Depending upon the size and scale of the emergency situation, different steps are taken in order to remove the water and remediate any infected locations. Today
Water Restoration Austell
, we will certainly continue from our previous short article and review the different things that are generally done on a water damage job along with the scope of the devices used.
The essential steps to any water damage restoration task can be broken down as follows:
* Flood Water Removal
* Wetness Mapping
* Mold Examination and Removal
* Water Drying Techniques
Flood Water Removal (Austell GA)
Eliminating the source of the water is the first crucial step on any water damage restoration. When they show up on the scene, professional specialists ought to have a variety of devices readily available at their disposal. Generally, portable submergible water pumps are made use of to pump out water accumulation in structures. These pumps have a high threshold for extracting water and can usually dry out a whole immersed location in a short time, which is important to stop the damage from spreading.
Wetness Mapping (Austell GA)
Moisture mapping includes using detection equipment in order to obtain an approximate map for the wetness values on your home. Infrared is one of the more common methods used to acquire precise readings, and correctly trained specialists typically take high-quality digital images as well to examine the level of the damage. This step is crucial in order to get a concept of how bad the water damage might be and to take initial steps to prevent mold growth.
Air Movers (Austell GA)
Understood as evaporators, air movers assist the drying procedure by regulating humidity in a region and promote blood circulation of air. This assists on a broad level by getting rid of liquids from permeable products - carpet, wood, drywall, plaster and more - leaving the harder attempting to specialized devices.
Water Drying Strategies (Austell GA)
These are some of the most common water drying techniques utilized by IICRC-certified professionals. Each method is made use of according to the extent of the circumstance.
Dehumidifiers/ Desiccant Dehumidification (Austell GA)
Dehumidifiers get rid of the moisture from the air so sticking around water in the area can be extracted from the location. These can be classified broadly under refrigerant dehumidifiers and desiccant dehumidifiers.
Refrigerant dehumidifiers work under the concept of cooling the surrounding air. When this happens, the air loses its capability to keep water, causing condensation upon the cooling coils of the equipment. High-grade dehumidifiers work like an effective variation of customer dehumidifiers, swiftly pulling the excess wetness from the air.
Desiccant dehumidifiers do not require cooling to get rid of water; instead, they utilize products that naturally absorb moisture. When applied on a large scale, these machines can quickly extract humidity from the air in as reliable a way as refrigerants. The kind of devices utilizes depends on the business you work with and the conditions of the restoration task.
Added equipment particular to the homeowner's region might be made use of, depending on the size of the restoration firm. Each water damage task is completely distinct and requires appropriate evaluation of the circumstance at hand to apply the appropriate equipment and techniques for eliminating water as swiftly as possible.
Form Assessment and Removal (Austell GA)
If unaddressed, recurring water can lead to mold damage. Water damage experts will use special detergents that decontaminate the area and make conditions unfavorable for mold development. In addition, some restoration firms can use deodorization and ventilation as part of the process to get rid of any sticking around odors and airborne impurities.

Project Description
The BC Parkway is a 26-kilometre, multi-use path that roughly parallels the Expo SkyTrain Line, connecting Surrey City Centre, New Westminster, South Burnaby and Vancouver. With the development of transit oriented neighbourhoods around SkyTrain stations, the BC Parkway will become an increasingly important facility for walking and wheeling (pedestrians, commuter and recreational cyclists, wheelchair users, in-line skating etc.).
We completed the preliminary and detailed design for improvements to the BC Parkway Regional Pathway in segments of Vancouver, New Westminster, and Surrey. The design included the addition of pathway lighting, the removal of stairs and replacement with accessible grades, landscape architecture enhancements and route marking signage. We helped advance a number of unique features through the design process including a two-way cycle-track, a permanent bicycle counter, a structural retaining wall, specification of porous asphalt, and rain garden treatments. The overall effect of these improvements is expected to be an enhancement of safety and accessibility for pathway users of all ages and abilities. The detailed design and tender process were completed in 2014, with construction expected to be finished in Spring 2015.
