If you smell propane in your home, IMMEDIATELY evacuate everyone and your pets and then shut the tank off. The shut off valve is located under the hood of the tank. Then, immediately contact Western Propane Service by calling from a neighbor's home.
All systems installed by Western Propane Service are pressure checked at the time of installation to assure that there are no leaks and that the pressure in the lines is at the optimal operating level for each appliance's operating level. If any lines are disconnected for any reason, a pressure check must be reapplied. Remember, if you are in doubt about anything regarding your propane gas system; please call us so we can insure the safety of you and your family.
Pressure Situation
The propane in your gas system is stored under pressure. While it's stored, there's no problem. However, in the unlikely event your system develops a leak (which can be caused by physical damage or deterioration), it can become dangerous.
Propane burns at an even rate when properly mixed with air, as in your stove or furnace. But, if a leak occurs, a flame or spark could ignite it. If that happens, it could cause a fire. Although such accidents are very rare, we want you to be aware of this possibility.
Know Your Propane System
Your propane system has four basic parts:
- A tank or cylinder, equipped with a main shutoff valve;
- One or more regulators, designed to maintain the proper pressure between the container and your appliance(s);
- Gas piping, to carry the propane to your appliance(s);
- Gas appliance(s).
The tank or cylinder is where the propane is stored. It is equipped with a shutoff valve, which turns the gas "on" or "off". The regulator controls the gas pressure, while the gas piping carries the gas to your appliance(s).
It is important for all family members to know the location of the main shutoff valve on your tank or cylinder. Remember its location and become familiar with how to shut it off in an emergency situation.
How to Tell if There is a Leak
- By smell. A disagreeable odor is added to the propane so that you will be able to detect the smell easily in case a leak develops or an unlit burner is left on.
- By electronic gas alarm. If used, the gas alarm supplements a person's ability to detect a gas leak and sounds a warning when it detects the presence of unburned propane.
What to do if You Smell Gas or the Alarm Sounds
Never just assume that the odor of gas is a sign that your tank is running low. If you smell gas in the house or if the gas alarm signals the presence of gas, IMMEDIATELY follow these suggestions:
- Extinguish all smoking materials and any other open flames or sources of ignition.
- Get everyone outside and away from the building.
- Shut off the gas supply at the tank.
- Check the level of the propane in the tank.
- Call Western Propane Service (805-922-8017) from a neighbor's phone.
- Stay outside and leave the gas off until the leak has been found and fixed.
- Turn light switches, appliances or thermostats on or off, and do not use the telephone.
- Light or try to re-light any appliance(s). Leave this job to us.
- Re-enter the building, until the problem has been corrected.
Inspecting Your Appliances Routinely (at least annually) call Western Propane Service to examine your gas appliance(s) for any conditions that may render the appliance(s) inefficient or unsafe for use, similar to how you have your automobile checked periodically. All appliances, including gas, should be regula rly inspected and maintained, just as electrical appliances, to eliminate possible hazards from short circuits and other malfunctions that could create hazards.
Vented Appliances
Some appliances are required to have vents in order to exhaust harmful combustion gases outside. Poisonous carbon monoxide can be produced from improperly installed or operating appliances. Frequent headaches and nausea may be indicators that this colorless, odorless gas is causing carbon monoxide poisoning. To minimize the chance of this happening follow these practices:
Vented appliances must be installed by a qualified appliance installer.
- Do not operate vented appliances until they have been vented properly.
- After appliance installation and before each heating season, the vents and flues should be checked for blockage and corrosion, either by a qualified installer or our service technician.
- If you buy a used appliance, have it inspected and installed by a qualified propane appliance installer.
General Safety Precautions
Here are some general safety procedures to follow when using your propane appliance(s):
Be alert for the odor of propane when around a gas appliance or container.
- If you smell gas, do not try to light the appliance. Call your propane supplier.
- Read and follow the operating and lighting instructions and warning labels provided by the appliance manufacturer.
- The pilot has a safety device. If you have trouble keeping it lit, this device is warning you about a problem. Call us for assistance with this problem.
- Never force any appliance control. If you cannot operate the knobs, switches or buttons by hand, replace the part.
- Keep combustibles, such as curtains, paper, cleaning fluids, etc., away from any energy source, including gas and electric appliances where they may cause a fire.
- Have a B/C rated fire extinguisher readily available. Be sure it is charged and that you and your family know how to use it.
- Gas appliances, like humans, need oxygen (air) to function properly.
- If you smell gas near your tank or cylinder, call us.
- Use only listed propane appliances. Look for the seal from a nationally recognized independent testing laboratory.
- Use gas grills outdoors only. Use or store propane cylinders outdoors only.
If You Run Out of Gas
Letting your propane container run empty creates additional hazards. If you run out of gas and lose pressure in the system, a potentially hazardous condition can result. If you do run out of gas, follow these steps:
- Turn off all control valves on all gas appliances.
- Turn off the shutoff valve on the propane container(s).
- Call us to arrange for delivery, and advise us you are out of gas.
- Don't turn the gas back on yourself. Let us do it. When you schedule your fill, be sure it is for a time when you are at home, so we can relight and check your appliances and system to assure that they are operating properly and are leak free.
- Immediately after your tank is refilled, have a service technician check to see that all safety controls are functioning properly and the piping system is leak free.
If You Move or Change Gas Appliances
Always call us when you need a gas appliance connected or disconnected. It is for your safety that the gas system remain in a safe condition at all times. Should the gas system develop a leak, a fire, or serious injury could result. Properly operated and maintained, your propane system and appliance(s) can provide you many years of clean-burning, safe, efficient service.

You know how Canadians aren't really in a mad rush to accept a high number of refugees in a short period of time?
Well, as some of us learned at a technical briefing held in Ottawa by government officials Wednesday morning, neither are a lot of those refugees in a rush to come to Canada.
Turns out, a lot of people want to go home when the war is over.
The 271 Syrian refugees that have arrived since November 4th when the new government took power, were people whose applications were already in process, and then there are the other 9,090 people in process that aren't here yet. That's right - ones that the mean old Harper government were working on bringing in. Conservatives focused their efforts on private sponsorships so that would be mainly people with family in Canada who have connections to our country.
Many of the others simply don't want to come. They don't hate Canada per se, it's just that they'd rather go home and that's why they prefer to stay in refugee camps in Turkey so they'll be close to home when the war is over.
Funny, that was a point that Stephen Harper made during the election campaign. He quoted people he had spoken to who said that Canada could help by helping those on the ground that didn't want to leave. For that he was described as uncaring.
This refugee rush has been a white liberal guilt exercise from the beginning - driven by partisan politics and the heartbreaking picture of a dead toddler shared generously by the main-stream media along with the false story that his family had been rejected by Canada.
The Liberals promised 25,000 refugees, a number which has now grown with Immigration Minister John McCallum saying we'll likely take in close to 50,000 by the end of 2016 but so far, just 1,800 of 41,000 contacted even expressed an interest.
It looks like the hesitancy of Canadians to take part in the refugee rush is matched by the hesitancy of Syrians who don't seem to want to be part of it either.

Trudeau's Liberals MUST halt plans to bring in 25,000 Syrian refugees
until they can guarantee the safety of the Canadian people.

Course descriptions
Industrial Design Principles An introduction to processes used in all areas of design and illustration, this course provides a foundation in the methods of concept, image, and form development. Using initial techniques such as brainstorming, mind mapping, and researching, ideas are developed for a variety of 2D and 3D solutions to applied projects. Tackling common issues of personal engagement, collaboration, and client interaction, students express a personal voice within the specific parameters of each assigned problem.
Industrial Design Form The purpose of this course is to endow students with a vocabulary of form with which to express the function and meaning of their ideas. This will be achieved through the exploration of the objects and object vocabulary, which surround us, and the development of the students' skills to express ideas visually. The students will be required to develop their communication skills as well as refine their two and three dimensional conceptualization and actualization of projects.
Manufacturing Process I A materials and manufacturing awareness production course in two parts. Part one includes casting, fabrication, and molding techniques for metals and plastics. Students discuss production techniques, selection and use of modern machine tools, dies, jigs, and fixtures. Part two includes product development documentation (three-view preliminary design layout drawings) for manufacturing processes such as sheet metal, casting, extrusion plastics, injection molding, vacuum form, blow molding, and fiberglass.
Human Factors-Ergonomic Review of current theory and practice in issues related to human/machine interface, ergonomics, universal design, etc. Methods and practice of human factors research applied to the re-definition of a product idea.
Manufacturing Process II An investigation of specific problems in the manufacturing development of a product. The course uses a detailed case study of a new product from its inception to its completion. Topics include cost analysis and research into the technical problems of competitive manufacturing and marketing.
CAID Surface Modeling The course explores the use of 3D surface-modeling programs as visual communication, design exploration, and a tool for production within the design industry and to communicate intent with clients, modelers, engineers, and manufacturers.

In other seasons, we'd currently be in the midst of a very exciting title race. Unfortunately, Man City are finding the game we love so easy to play right now, they may end winning the title by mid-April at the latest on current form. Consequently, while City look magnificent, their city rivals do not.
Considering the vast sums spent at both clubs since Pep Guardiola and Jose Mourinho assumed their roles in Manchester nearly two years ago, it had been hoped that a far closer race would be run between the two. After City's win on Sunday, they're 19 points ahead of Mourinho and his lot.
It really is imperative that United lose as few points as possible between now and the end of the season if the gap between the two isn't to widen further given how imperious City look right now. United's next game is at Selhurst and they arrive off the back of a morale boosting win at home to Mourinho's former employer, Chelsea. One down after 25 minutes, the Old Trafford faithful may have started to become restless but goals from Romelu Lukaku and Jesse Lingard turned the game around.
Summer recruitment will need to be swift and decisive in view of the World Cup and a shorter transfer window. Clearly work needs to be done if the gap between blue and red of Manchester is to lessen but perhaps chucking the chequebook at the problem isn't the answer. The money spent at United, on wages as well as fees, is incredible but it doesn't seem to have increased the chances of winning their first league title since 2012. Zlatan Ibrahimovic's return to the club after the season had started encapsulated the economic madness that surrounds the club. On over £200k a week, the Swede is unlikely to make more than ten appearances by the time the season finishes in May and he departs for, most likely, the MLS.
A week in which Roy Hodgson won a 'Manager of the Year' award also saw us drop into the bottom three for the first time in a number of months. A mixed bag of results hasn't isolated us with Stoke and West Brom but has narrowed the field of candidates for who will be playing in the second tier next season. While any game between now and the end of the season must be a target for points, this Palace team (with about 43 injuries) is unlikely to get anything against United.
Note I said unlikely.
Key players
David de Gea
Just when you think this guy is as good as possible, he pulls out another astounding save. The reflexes on display when keeping out a goal bound header against Sevilla last month were out of this world. It was another example of why he's rated so highly and can lay claim to currently being the best goalkeeper in the world right now.
A busy few months lie ahead of the keeper with a World Cup on the horizon. A good tournament for de Gea is likely to see louder calls for Real Madrid to sign the keeper but United have stood firm before and will surely try their damnedest to keep hold of one of their truly world class assets.
Paul Pogba
Once the world's most expensive player, the French midfielder finds himself under a huge deal of scrutiny at the moment. Since being hauled off during the defeat to Spurs in January, Pogba's role at United, as well as his future, has been called into question.
Having been dropped, for just one game, Pogba has started the last few games and will surely do so on Monday night. He needs a performance akin to the one he offered at Selhurst last season to put the doubters off giving him another ear bashing come Tuesday morning.
Alexis Sanchez
If Alexis is half as influential as he was at Selhurst in December, Palace are bang in trouble. The Chilean's performance in an Arsenal shirt that night was superb. Strong in possession, held the ball up brilliantly and, of course, took his two goals with the aplomb we've come to expect from the Chilean.
His summer move to Manchester surprised a few in that he chose United over City but his departure from The Emirates had been a lo
ng time coming. Already a key part of Mourinho's plans, Sanchez can play in the knowledge he's got his manager's full backing.

Learning about native plants on green roof is my passion! (Can you tell from that picture?!?) I also love teaching folks of all ages and from all backgrounds about the many ecological and environmental benefits of installing green roofs in cities around the world. My green roof ecology studies and teachings have taken me to cities all over the world, from my hometown of Chicago, to London, Sydney, Paris, Guatemala City, Berlin, and many more.
Do you think you or your organization could benefit from my knowledge and passions? Do you have an idea for a collaborative research project? Feel free to get in touch to discuss the possibilities.

It's been two weeks since I submitted my PhD and I'm fairly sure my body is still in shock. After a long three years of study, not waking up every morning and having to write, research and redraft my thesis is positively bizarre. When I woke up on the morning of submission I felt excited more than anything else- a bit like a child at Christmas. The promise of seeing my thesis bound properly and submitted on time was all a bit too much. After submission I travelled back to Darlington, made myself a cup of tea and instinctively loaded my thesis on my laptop in my study. It was only then that I realised I could do no more to it- it was out of my hands.
|Submission Day
The final few months of my PhD were unusual to say the least. I had a full draft completed at least six months before the deadline, and my supervisors had looked over every chapter. The main problem was accepting that I had to stop. I probably could have redrafted my thesis forever. About a month before my submission deadline I accepted that the changes I made would be final. From then on I made any last minute additions and spent my time proofing and ensuring the submission was presented correctly. I was reassured by the fact that 85,000 words was not enough for me to say everything I wanted to on the subject of mystical theology. My supervisors once told me that the topics you leave out of your PhD form most of what you will research for the rest of your career. I hope that is true, as I'm still eager to develop the topic further.
One of the most challenging aspects of academia is undoubtedly engaging with other academics. Some send emails telling you to 'back off' from a shared research interest, others belittle your conference papers, while the especially mean ones doubt the legitimacy of your research. I've met my fair share of people who will scoff to your face when you suggest something they disagree with. I've also met those who consider your research to not be important or interesting, and are quite vocal in making that clear. The problem is that academia demands you silently accept these little episodes as part and parcel of the job. The main issue seems to be insecurity. At every level from PhD students upwards, there is always an element of competition in a job market that cannot accommodate the sheer volume of newly qualified researchers. It can leave you (intellectually) battered and bruised.
I've been told many times that academia requires you to develop a 'thicker skin', something I'm terrible at doing. Instead, I've found the greatest way to counteract this negativity is to actively seek out and surround myself with supportive fellow researchers. At many conferences, especially a recent one at Ushaw College, I've met PhD students and more established researchers who have a genuine interest in my research. It is these people I email, follow on Twitter, and share my research with. Their positivity, warmth and supportive comments all help counteract journal rejections and harsh emails. As I'm currently the only early modern PhD student at my institution, I've found that this helps combat feeling isolated. Many of the academics I've emailed out of the blue have also been more than happy to offer advice, even offering to read over journal articles before I submit them. Having the confidence to reach out to others is something I've learnt during my PhD- 90% of academics are more than happy to help. That is why I started this post with a quote from a fellow Twitter user Dr Anne Galloway- the real key to success in academia is to surround yourself with kind people and pass this kindness on to others. It is the only way to feel 'human' in an environment of rejection and competition.
As for the near future- I'm actually looking forward to my viva. I'm excited to see what my examiners think of my thesis, especially as (so far) my supervisors are the only academics to have read the entire thing. I'm eager to see how my examiners engage with it. I'm trying to keep busy until then; I've written a book review for British Catholic History, which I'm also planning to submit a journal article to in the near future. Teaching at Northumbria is proving to be very rewarding- my students are becoming confident in debating and expressing their opinions. It's great to see them developing. Giving first year lectures on early modern religion to our new 120 strong cohort is also thrilling to say the least! Far from exhausting my interest, my PhD has given me a thirst for new challenges and new research. To quote Rainer Maria Rilke- 'the purpose of life is to be defeated by greater and greater things'.

I am able to get outside into nature almost every week, I am able to work in healthcare as a designer helping to improve the experiences of other patients and clinicians, and I've recently done a good job at maintaining a pretty good social life.
My friends have gotten used to me bowing out of events or bailing last-minute sometimes if I'm not feeling well. My husband is especially understanding of my limits and always encourages me to 'be calm' and take a break.
I often have physical sensations that have not been officially 'diagnosed' as part of my conditions but that I recognize as being autoimmune in some manner. Things like prickling in my legs, a 'coolness' in my toes, hot joints, extreme fatigue, and this feeling that I can only describe as 'achy bones' that I feel down the backs of my calves and in my forearms sometimes when I wake up. It truly feels like the bones are aching. It's difficult to put these sensations into words, much less have them officially recognized as part of an autoimmune disorder (or family of disorders.)
It is scary when a new symptom crops up, or when it seems that one is getting worse. Sometimes I will have completely unrelated sensations in my body that I will attribute to one of my autoimmune diseases before realizing that it's just a coincidence. My left arm was bothering me recently, and I thought, 'am I having a heart attack due to Sjogren's Syndrome heart problems?' It seems like a ridiculous thought and I've since realized it's probably just a muscular pain due to sitting too much for work, but that's life with multiple conditions.
You're always wondering.
-Any memorable moments while being tested?-
I was fortunate to get a quick diagnosis, after my mom noticed that my smile at the dinner table looked more like a grimace. She got me into the doctor right away, and I was soon seen by multiple neurologists who made the diagnosis.
Regardless of the speed with which I was diagnosed, the painful or uncomfortable tests do stand out in my mind. While I was in the process of getting diagnosed with Myasthenia Gravis at age 13, I had to have an EMG test that sent shocks through my muscles to measure my body's muscle response. I remember sitting in the dim exam room in the hospital with my gown to the side and electrodes placed on my neck and back, and having shocks coming at intervals. I hated it. I did ok during that session, but since that time I have not been able to tolerate electrical shocks in any capacity. Another neurologist decided to re-test me when I was about 25, and I walked out in the middle of the test because it was too emotionally overwhelming. So now I don't do the EMG.
While I was trying to figure out some other symptoms, I had a test to measure my 'dry eyes.' For this, they put little pieces of paper in the corner of your eyes, and the paper is soaked with a chemical that stings. This is intended to make your eyes water, so that they can measure the extent to which your tear production is normal. It sounds barbaric. That was pretty awful as well, to have chemical-soaked papers sticking out of the corner of your eyes, but it did lead to my secondary diagnosis of Sjogren's Syndrome, which was a relief because it helped explain some of my other symptoms that couldn't be attributed to Myasthenia Gravis (joint pain, stomach problems, neuropathy, and I realized that my 'dry eyes' were part of the Sjogren's as well.)
-What would you like to see more of from your healthcare giver?-
My neurologist is my main provider for my primary condition, Myasthenia Gravis. He is pretty great, and progressive, and he usually spends a full 30 minutes with me at every visit. He will email me if I email him, and he's even emailed another provider (an herbalist) about my care. I hold him as a very good example of the type of provider I want to interact with.
The 'whole body' view of an autoimmune patient is difficult, and seeing multiple specialists over time has been challenging. Specialists like neurologists and rheumatologists do not always feel confident about commenting on symptoms related to 'other' autoimmune conditions that don't fall under their specific domain.
My big wish is that we could all be in a room together to talk over my symptoms, how I'm doing, and what a good plan for action is.
-Have you experimented with diet? How has your diet helped you?-
I have extensively played with my diet in an attempt to manage my IBS symptoms, which have flared on and off since 2007, and maybe even earlier. Currently I avoid dairy, gluten, fruit, and high-fructose sugars like maple syrup, honey, agave, and high-fructose corn syrup. Through self-tracking and working with the start-up Mymee, which is a health data coaching service, I found that high-fructose sugars directly aggravated my sensations of my fingertips burning and becoming numb. Within a half hour of eating or drinking fruit, my fingers and toes would be burning. This was an amazing revelation that has changed my approach to eating.
Experimenting with visualizing my symptoms:
In order to better communicate with my doctors about how I've been feeling, I have some personal projects to visualize my symptoms – both on the outline of a body, and showing their severity over time on a timeline. I've had a wonderful reception from the doctors I've shown these projects to, and I have hope that other patients could use this type of expression to advocate for themselves and tell their stories more effectively. You can read more about my experiments on my blog.
-How would the use of health & wellness type apps help you in your everyday life?-
I currently track aspects of my health using a spreadsheet. I think tracking symptoms is helpful, if you can keep up with it. Being able to communicate with my doctor and express how I am feeling would be a big help. I am a fan of apps or services that helps patients express themselves, communicate more effectively, and better understand their conditions.
The trick is not requiring too much work from patients and creating something that fits into their daily lives.

Shelton Grand List is up by 0.8%
The city's Grand List has increased by 0.8%, a more significant jump than in the past few years.
The 2014 Grand List, based on assessed values as of last Oct. 1, is $4.55 billion. This includes the assessed value of all taxable real estate, personal property (business equipment), and motor vehicles in the city.
"We will probably lead the area in growth," Mayor Mark Lauretti said.
During the two previous years, Shelton's Grand List had gone up by 0.5% annually.
An increasing Grand List enables the city to produce more tax revenue without having to raise the mill rate. Basically, the city benefits from an enlarged tax base.
Personal property audits
One factor in Shelton's new Grand List was a big increase in the overall value of business equipment, helped by a number of personal property audits done by the city.
The city hired an outside firm to audit 600 businesses to see if all their equipment was being properly declared and taxed. "That had an effect," said city Assessor William Gaffney.
The business equipment category increased in the new Grand List by more than 9%, or $32 million in assessed value.
(Story continues below)
Real Estate:
0% (no change)
Business equipment:
Motor vehicles:
Personal property owned by businesses includes computers, machines, furniture, fixtures, and various other equipment. The city has 1,521 personal property accounts.
The city had not done personal property audits in the past.
The overall value of real estate remained essentially flat in the Grand List, while motor vehicles went up by 0.9%. The city has 15,411 real estate parcels and 38,468 motor vehicles.
The Grand List for a year is finalized by the end of the following January. The new Grand List will take effect on July 1, when the next municipal fiscal year begins.
Gaffney said Shelton's Grand List growth appears to compare well to many nearby towns. "When we checked other towns, we found we were either above or consistent with them," he said.
Lauretti highlights 'affordability'
Lauretti said Shelton continues to benefit from its pro-business approach, affordability and quality of life.
He said the city is able to withstand economic downturns better than most other communities.
"When we have a recession in Connecticut and the country, Shelton is the last one in and the first one out because of our affordability," he said, pointing out he's served as mayor through three economic recessions.
The largest property owner in Shelton remains R.D. Scinto Inc., which has built many office buildings along the Route 8 corridor.
See separate story on the city's Top Ten taxpayers:
Lauretti said developer Robert Scinto continues to pursue projects in Shelton because of the city's stable tax rate and business-friendly attitude.
He said Scinto's proposals aren't always received as favorably in other towns. "We get it here," Lauretti said. "It's been a good marriage. It works for us and for him."
Future business equipment audits?
Gaffney said the city could do more personal property audits in a few years, looking at the companies not covered by the recent audits as well as firms new to Shelton. He said the completed audits give the city "a base" on which to track a company's business equipment values in the future.
Gaffney also noted the audits didn't lead to higher personal property assessments at all companies. "Some went down," he said.

Road through hospital road
Traffic chaos is expected in Portlaoise next year when five primary schools relocate to a new purpose built campus on the Stradbally Road if a planned link road is not opend time.
Last week Laois County Council agreed to include access points for a new road cutting across a HSE field the grounds of St Fintan's Hospital on their Local Area Plan. The road would link Portlaoise's Dublin and Stradbally roads, alleviating the traffic jams that already take place at the Block road and Dublin road junction, beside the hospital.
However, the new road is unlikely to be built before more than a thousand children arrive for school at the campus off the southern circular road in September 2013.
Portlaoise county councillor Catherine Fitzgerald requested that the East Circular road be included on the LAP. She is urging her colleagues to push to get it built in time.
"We have to get the new road there before any schools open. The Block road is already a major problem. It is a great plan to go across through St Fintan's, I believe we have to push it," she said.
Cllr Fitzgerald pointed to the road alterations on the Borris Road, after the two new secondary schools opened, as an example of what not to do.
"It cost us a lot of money to try put infrastructure in after the schools were built," she said.
The road has been in the planning for twenty years now, says Cllr Fitzgerald.
"This was originally the route planned that would come out at the Fielbrook estate on the Dublin road, with a roundabout there. There is going to be chaos on the Block Road, it was under pressure twenty years ago," she said.
The road would link with the new southern circular route at Beladd on the Stradbally road, necessitating the demolition of two two-storey empty houses on the Stradbally road. It would run behind the Kolbe Centre and the Cuisle Centre, exiting at the Dublin Road.
The five schools relocating to the new campus are Gaelscoil Phortlaoise, Maryborough NS, Educate Together, St Paul's NS, the Sacred Heart and Scoil Mhuire. Planning permission is due to be lodged for some of the schools shortly.

An earwig's body is divided into three parts ― head, thorax, and abdomen.
The earwig isn't capable of staying airborne for a long period and compensates for it by running fast on the ground.
They nest in dark, moist places, especially under stones, mulch, leaves, logs, flowerpots and rotting wood.
They are predominantly social and gather in large groups to cause noticeable damage to vegetation.
An earwig's body is divided into three parts ― head, thorax, and abdomen. Two small eyes, a mouthpart for chewing and two long antennae are positioned on the head. Two pairs of wings and three pairs of legs are attached to the thorax. The short leathery forewings cover the large and circular hind wings.
The earwig isn't capable of staying airborne for a long period and compensates for it by running fast on the ground. The pincers (forceps) located at the rear end of the abdomen are the most prominent feature of this insect. They are large and look terrifying. They are used for seizing prey and defending against predators.
Earwigs have a flattened body, which enables them to squeeze into tiny spaces. Their body length varies from 6mm to 18mm. The Australian earwig is relatively large species that can grow up to 50mm in length.
Types of Earwigs
Here are the common species of earwigs that are found in homes:
- Red Legged Earwigs
This species is commonly found in the southern parts of the U.S., especially in Florida. It has a dark back and a yellowish underbelly. It lacks the short, leathery wings found in most other species. However, it does have pincers to capture prey and is very much capable of infiltrating homes in large numbers.
- Striped Earwigs
Unlike the red-legged earwig, the striped earwig is not fond of attacking homes and outdoor vegetation. However, in dry and unfavorable conditions, it has no choice but to find refuge in the dark and moist locations inside a house or a building.
Earwigs are predominantly social and gather in large groups to cause noticeable damage to vegetation. It is highly unlikely for earwigs to access your homes, as they are primarily outdoor insects.
However, they are often carried accidentally inside homes by way of flowerpots and fruits. The female earwig does a great job at taking care of its kids, unlike mothers of other insects. She makes sure that the eggs stay in sight and inside the burrow.
She constantly cleans them so that parasites and fungi don't cause them any harm. She also provides food to them until they are capable of fending for themselves. However, there's a dark side to Mama Earwig too. If one of her offspring does not leave the nest when she wants it to, she eats it for showing disobedience.
Earwigs nest in dark, moist places, especially under stones, mulch, leaves, logs, flowerpots and rotting wood. They are nocturnal animals and mostly seen foraging during the night, under bright lights. They only reproduce in moist soil.
Life Cycle and Reproduction
Like most insects, earwigs undergo three stages in their life cycle ― egg, nymph, and adult. The mating season is fall. During this time, the male and female spend time together in a nest covered with debris, soil or a crevice.
In early spring, when the male leaves, the female lays around 50 to 80 eggs. In about seven days' time, the nymph hatches from the egg and nourish itself on the same egg-casing from which it hatched out from.
Nymphs lack wings and are tiny and yellowish. In a process known as molting, they discard their outer skin at least 5 times to grow in size. After each molt, the size of their antennae and wings increases. The nymphs sexually mature in 45 days and appear more or less like adults around that time.
Signs of Infestation
-Bitten-off vegetation especially leaves in your garden.
-Ripe fruits and vegetables in your kitchen that have distinct holes and black discoloration.
-Flowers in vases that show signs of an earwig bite.
-Funky odor inside the house.
Threats and Damage
Earwigs don't pose any serious threat to humans. They don't painfully bite or sting and aren't poisonous. However, homeowners should get rid of them at the earliest because they cause massive damage to roses, oranges and other plants. In rare cases, they can also enter into a human's ear and pinch it with its anterior pincers.
Prevention Tips
- Natural Predators
Since birds don't mind the odor of earwigs, which makes them excellent control predators. Toads also love the taste of earwigs.
So, what you can do is attract birds by positioning bird feeders close to dark and moist places especially around flower vases, and other wet vegetation.
Toads can be attracted by planting shrubs that allow them to hide and provide a lot of insects to feed on. The earwig hatches its eggs in late winter. Luckily, this is also the time when birds find it hard to get their hands on an adequate supply of food. Placing bird feeders in this time is an excellent tactic to lure these desperate birds towards an earwig's nest.
- Trapping
Trapping is an effective way to manage an earwig problem. Place several traps alongside shrubbery, fences, and vegetation. Make sure they are hidden. A can containing tuna fish or pet food and 100 ml of oil is an excellent trap to bait earwigs. You can also line the can with bacon grease.
The best way to place these traps is to sink them in the ground in a way that only the topside of the can is above ground. Dispose of captured earwigs and recycle traps.
You can drain them into soapy water or crush them in sturdy plastic bags. Keep on repeating these trapping practices until there are no signs of earwigs.
- Indoor Control
If there are frequent sightings of earwigs inside your home, inspect it thoroughly and seal cracks and entry points with inorganic caulk.
Remove harborage outside the building, especially the ground cover, tall mulches, leaf litter, wood piles, and other organic matter that earwigs are prone to survive on.
Also, fix leaky faucets, and keep moisture to a bare minimum. Earwigs love to hunt and forage in bright lighting. Replace bright lights with sodium vapor lighting, which has a little to no chance of attracting these pesky insects.***

Software for Food Distributors
What our customers are saying
The service I get from NECS throughout the years has been excellent. I've recommended the entrée software throughout the years to several distributors as the best software for a food distributor at the most affordable price.
Stephen Marque
Vice President, Marque's Food Distributors
Get on board as soon as you can with this software. It works well for us and every food distributor that I've ever known has nothing but good things to say about NECS. The entrée software definitely modernized our business and made us more efficient and productive.
Scott Nevland
General Manager, Guderian Foods
I would recommend entrée to other food distributors. We chose NECS because we extensively visited other food distributors that were using it and they were all very satisfied. I couldn't imagine doing business without it.
Tom Wheat
President, Cable Meat and Food Service
The entrée software gives us everything that is necessary for our operation. I don't even need an IT person to run our computers because of the ease-of-use of entrée. More than anything is the excellent support you get from NECS. Our computer software has to do more than it's ever done before, and for that entrée is the way to go.
Bill Borges
President, New Orleans Fish House
I think we are a step ahead of the biggest broad liners in the business right now, because of entrée.

All Of Your Debt Consolidation Questions Answered
Do you have bills coming in from every direction? Is this making paying down your debt frustrating? If you can answer yes to these questions debt consolidation may be right for you. When it comes to this service there are some things you should know. Continue reading and learn more about consolidating your debt.
Consider the benefits of debt consolidation, even if you're debt isn't that heavy. For example, a debt consolidation loan with very favorable terms can save you a lot of money in interest every month. A single payment is also much easier to manage than many. Weigh the pros and cons, and see if debt consolidation can put you in better financial shape.
Know what you're getting into. This is critical. Before you sign up for any debt consolidation program, be crystal clear about the terms. Not only that, but if you've taken out a debt consolidation loan, make sure you are sure that you got the best loan rate available. Find out as much as you can.
Never borrow money from professionals you aren't familiar with. There are many loan sharks out there who might take advantage of you. When you make the decision to borrow money in order to pay off some of your debt, only do business with a loan provider with a solid reputation. You should ensure they provide a reasonable interest rate compared to the rate the creditors charge.
Some creditors will consider your debt as paid off if you can give them enough cash to cover 70% of what you owe them. Contact your different creditors to see if they are interested in this kind of payment arrangement. Try gathering as much cash as possible so you can make a reasonable offer to your creditors.
Debt consolidation doesn't just mean having companies speak to other companies on your behalf. If you are still able to, a traditional bank loan is probably the smartest way to get out of debt. A loan from a bank or a credit union doesn't yield the same drawbacks as other debt consolidation methods do.
Are you able to refinance your home? If so, you can do so and take the extra cash at closing. Eliminating your debts can be done quickly this way if you have equity in your home. This is a great way to "reboot" your finances, but you must act responsibly for this to work.
If you're trying to find a place that gives you the option to consolidate your debts, be sure you're able to spend the time needed to do some research. Inquire with the BBB to make sure you can trust your chosen company.
Remember that the future shouldn't hold any more debt for you if you are already using debt consolidation. If you end up with some extra cash now that your payments are less, put it away so that when other problems crop up, like a broken car, you have the money to pay in cash.
Ask how the debt consolidation agency you are interested in gets its funding. Reliable professionals will explain how they get their funding through contributions from different creditors. If your debt consolidation counselor does not want to give you any details about funding, you should try finding a more reliable professional.
Always do research with the Better Business Bureau before choosing a debt consolidation firm. They are one of the best places to go to help confirm that the company you are considering is out for your best interest. If the company has complaints on record, then it's best to move on and consider other options.
When consolidating together all of your debts, try to negotiate discounts by paying off your debts in lump sums. In many circumstances creditors will be willing to accept lump sum payments of up to 60 percent off of the money you owe. With the defaults in place, creditors are happy to get something rather than nothing at all.
Consolidating your debt is a great idea for many people. It can help you pay all your debt off, but avoid having to make a different payment multiple times each month. This article contained several tips that can help you if you decide that debt consolidation is right for your situation.

Where Can I Serve?
Jesus told us, his disciples, to make disciples of all nations. One of the most important values of Blooming Grove is our mission to the world. It begins in our own community, and spreads overseas to every nation. Blooming Grove members are involved in a variety of ministries from things as simple as preparing communion, to teaching a Sunday School class.
Music & Worship
God-honoring worship is something we strive for. Many church members get involved in our worship team. Some play their instruments. Some are vocalists. These volunteers play an important role every Sunday as they invite us into God's presence and lead us in worship, using their talents and gifts to glorify God.
The greeter team at the Grove fills an important role. They are involved in directing attendees to their seats, helping visitors, answering questions, handing out weekly bulletins, and providing direction. They are always equipped with a warm smile and a hardy hug or handshake.
Audio & Video
Using media to spread the gospel is a privilege of Blooming Grove. In an age of widespread technology, we have a stewardship to use these tools as best as possible for kingdom purposes. All of our weekly worship services and sermons make use of PowerPoint and Exalt Now presentations with occasional videos or other media. We also maintain an active Facebook page for additional church communication.
Prayer Team
Prayer cannot be overestimated. Prayer moves the hand of God. Blooming Grove is a body of believers dependent upon prayer, and committed to God's sovereignty. Each Sunday, a team of volunteers is praying for the families of the Grove, the community around us, as well as our nations leaders. We take prayer requests at every service and often share them on Facebook.
Children's Church
In order to give our children the best Bible teaching possible, the Grove holds a children's church service in conjunction with the main service. This special time gives kids more opportunity for interaction and learning in a context and manner that may be better suited to their age and learning styles. Our friendly children's church volunteers have an endless stream of creativity–ranging from puppet shows, to games, to object lessons.
Centershot is an eight-week outreach ministry that uses the life skill of archery as a tool to encourage kids of all ages to "make Christ the target of our lives." Several sportsmen from the Grove volunteer two hours a week to teach kids the art of archery while at the same time enabling Dads to interact with their children in a Christ-focused activity.

Xu Haidong
6 Aug - 9 Sept 2008
Hong Kong
Like many of his contemporaries, Xu Haidong's work for his exhibition 'Muted' presents us with the social realities of China. His multiple dogs are painted in thick impasto, in subdued, 'muted' colours on large -scale canvases, representing the many miners in China who have died in accidents over the years and have gone unnoticed and unremarked. They are treated as nothing more than disposable labourers, hard working 'dogs' who can be replaced by the multitude of other hungry able bodied men waiting for work. These workers have no voice, no names, perhaps only a picture for identity purposes. This is reflected by the format of the paintings, squares of photo-portrait-like painted dogs, calling to mind photo-ID cards.
His open mouthed babies, chubby and fleshy with their impasto applied paint signal a new China. A China belonging to the post 70s and post 80s babies- lackadaisical and taking for granted the social and political conditions that brought about the change allowing for their open-mouthed consumerist gluttony.
Xu Haidong's exhibition is a sum of his passions and his concerns and through the curation of his apposite painted images the viewer not only engages with some challenging issues but also gets a glimpse of the artist himself.

Columbus, OH US
see all...Viewing 3 out of 16 projects
I have graduated from the Ohio State University in June 2007 with a bachelors of science in Interior Space Design. While attending the University, I also received my bachelors in History of Art and interned at The Columbus Museum of Art. At the museum I was an assistant to the registrar where I was in charge of the organization and research of the museum's main collection.
As a design student I have been introduced to a variety of representational methods. Although my area of concentration has been in the digital realm, I have also been trained in analogue drafting skills as well. I have experience with a number of digital programs which are used to make architectural and interior representation possible. These programs include: SketchUp, AutoCAD, Rhinoceros, Flamingo, and 3D Studio Max. In addition to 3D software I am also fluent in 2d Graphics programs such as Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign.
While at Ohio State I was also given the opportunity to participate in multidisciplinary competition projects. One such project was the 2006 Natural Talent Competition sponsored by the United States Green Building Council. Throughout this project I worked with students from architecture, landscape architecture and product design. The result of this competition was a first place standing at the regional level.
I have also worked as a co-op designer at Mosaic Design Studio in Columbus Ohio. As a designer at Mosaic I worked on a variety of different projects ranging from health care and hospitality to restaurant and residential. My tasks on these projects included site visits, ff&e selections, floor planes, finish schedules, project documentation, and furnishings and finishes boards. I was also in charge of organizing the materials library and keeping contact with manufacturer representatives.
In 2008 I worked as a freelance designer with Fury -X design studio. As a freelance designer I have been involved in the creative end of two projects. The first being a hospitality design for the Residence Inn hotel chain, and the other being a trade show exhibit for Sony. As a freelance designer, I have learned to work as an independent entity of a design team while at the same time keeping in mind the goal of the entire team.
In 2008/2009 I was employed as a retail designer at Charles Sparks and Company where I was involved in concept design on a number of different retail projects. My responsibility entailed concept sketches, hand drawn elevations and floor plans as well as fixture design and rendered images of the spaces.
In 2010 I worked as a consultancy designer for Zen Genius, a visual merchandising firm and also D Hospitality, a case good design studio and manufacturer. At DHospitality I designed marketing materials for various business types. While working at Zen Genius I designed and 3D modeled concepts and graphics for store windows.
In 2011 I was employed by Fitch Design Studio in Columbus, Ohio as a contract 3D retail designer. My duties included 3D modeling and representation of retail spaces. I was also involved in diagramatic 3D modeling of spaces for initial design ideation. At fitch I utilized modeling and visualization programs such as SketchUp, V-ray, and Adobe suites.
In 2012 I was employed by Nook Industries as a contract 3d designer in their marketing department. At Nook I utilized 3DS Max and scanline rendering engine to create thumbnail images of their product line.

What is mobsync.exe? Should I remove it?
mobsync.exe is a legitimate executable file, which is also known as mobile synchronization component of the Internet Explorer web browser. Its purpose is to make web-pages available offline. From the publisher: "With Internet Explorer, you can make pages available offline. You can use Synchronization Manager to set specific parameters for when your offline pages should be synchronized with the current cached page. To run Synchronization Manager, click Synchronize on the Tools menu. You can synchronize pages three ways: at logon, during idle time, or at a scheduled time. To set your synchronization preference, start Synchronization Manager, click Setup, and then click the appropriate settings on the Logon/Logoff tab." So, if you found mobsync.exe running in your Task Manager, you shouldn't terminate it. However, if you think that it misbehaves and initiates problems, you can disable it by going into Task Manager and ending mobsync.exe.
Any malware can be named anything! This is done for hiding dangerous files and preventing their removal. If mobsync.exe is located in order folder, not in C:\Windows\System32, you should check the trustworthiness of this file with a help of RegCure Pro. According to security experts, it has been used by WORM_SDBOT.CNT worm but noone can guarantee that other viruses won't be hidden using this name.

What do you call a man who injures himself before a tour, gets himself fit before the final of a tournament that supposedly has no bearing on the selection of the team to the tour, finds that a middle order batsman, prone to injuries as much as him, is… injured, and called up to make a dash to Johannesburg when he is celebrating the tournament win with his friends? Lucky, or if you want to be more specific- Shaun Marsh.
You never feel assured with the man, not when he is the only guy apart from Shane Watson to have scored a century from number three for Australia in the last three years . Not when you are the only guy apart from Michael Clarke who looked confident in that disaster of a Cape Town Test . Not when you scored 17 runs in 6 innings against India at home. So it was natural that there would be more than a few resenting voices against his selection to the South African tour.
The selectors seem to have a lot of faith in him. He is yet to repay that faith with a consistent run. It can be argued that he hasn't been given a fair run in the baggy green cap. His run with injuries hasn't helped him either. Today, when he came to the crease, the score read 24/2 and a lot hinged on the way he would bat. He saw Amla drop a tough chance off him and then saw Doolan mesmerised by three away swingers out of four by McLaren. All the three outswingers beat the outside edge of Doolan's bat. In between all that, he served notice of the talent that first impressed Steve Waugh and a generation of selectors. The drive he played off Morkel, by literally walking to the pitch of the delivery, will remain in the minds of the people lucky enough to have witnessed it. As the time spent at the crease grew, he grew confident to play the strokes he wanted to. The off drive off the bowling of Morkel, the skip down the pitch and lofted shot off Peterson, the straight drive off Steyn and the cut off Duminy- all these shots are the hallmarks of a good player.
Every single time we think that he has turned a corner, he either gets bogged down by an injury or has an inconsistent run. Today, he put his down and concentrated on getting himself in. Once he got the initial nerves calmed, he started playing the strokes. The period between lunch and tea was tough on him as it looked that he was hobbling. Though he seemed to be pain, he rotated the strike well.
He grew nervous as he got closer to the century. He got an outside edge on 96 that did not carry to the fielders behind and inside edge that didn't hit the stumps. At the present stage in his career, it will be said that he has taken a turn for the better only if performs well in Port Elizabeth and Cape Town.

AN ex-Amazon employee claims she ended up being evicted from her home and having to sleep at the warehouse car park after becoming injured at work and receiving no sick pay.
Vickie Shannon Allen, 49, from Texas, says she suffers back problems because of their faulty equipment.
Without full pay she fell behind on her rent and was made homeless.
Yesterday she uploaded a heartfelt YouTube video in which she laid bare her plight and made allegations against Amazon.
Standing by her car which was parked outside her workplace, she said: "I just can't believe this is my life now. I am just in awe that I live in my car at my job - who does that?
"I work for the world's richest man [Jeff Bezos] and I live in my car."
Ms Allen claims Amazon gave medical attention after her injury but bosses sent her home every day without pay because she was unable to work.
After nine months of wrangling with the company, she says she ended up with just ONE day's paid leave.
She alleged she refused the firm's offer of a buyout of only for $3,500 (£2,600), which meant she would have to sign a nondisclosure agreement to not say anything derogatory about Amazon or my experience.
Allen said she had found somewhere to live more permanently but needed money to pay the first month's rent and deposit.
After being contacted by Sun Online about the claims, a spokesman said: "We don't recognize these allegations as an accurate portrayal of working at Amazon.
"We are proud of our safety record and thousands of Amazonians work hard every day innovating ways to make it even better.
"Ensuring the safety of these associates is our number one priority.
"We encourage anyone to come see for themselves by taking a tour at one of our fulfillment centres."
The global online shopping goliath is at the centre of claims in the UK and across the world about poor working conditions.

Showcase your favorite vegetable or flower vines on your patio, deck, or up against your house. The innovative design of this small-space system makes it a convenient and foolproof way to grow super-productive plants right outside your door. The integrated trellis makes it ideal for cucumbers, peas and beans and other vegetable vines, as well as annual flower vines like sweet peas, mandevilla and black-eyed Susan vines. We recommend using the included tie-back to secure the planter to a post or railing.
Success starts in the roots. The perforated planter with Honeycomb Ventilation and lightweight Grow Bag liner air-prune roots, ensuring a dense, vigorous root system that can take up more water and nutrients — the secret to super-productive plants.
Dual-Hydrate Watering System. Draws water from the reservoir into the soil two ways — an evaporative grid plus capillary strip — efficiently providing roots with water. A new, larger port makes it easy to fill the reservoir.
Built-in support. The heavy-duty trellis is integrated into the planter, giving vines a secure place to climb.
