Tim Ryan on CorporationsDemocratic Representative (OH-17); Presidential Challenger (withdrawn) | |
RYAN: General Motors got a tax cut. Then they have the audacity to move a new car that they're going to produce to Mexico. The bottom 60% haven't seen a raise since 1980. Meanwhile, the top 1% control 90% of the wealth. We need an industrial policy saying we're going to dominate building electric vehicles, there's going to be 30 million made in the next 10 years. I want half of them made in the United States. I want to dominate the solar industry and manufacture those here in the United States.
Q: Are these jobs coming back?
Sen. Elizabeth WARREN:˙We've had an industrial policy in the United States for decades now, and it's basically been let giant corporations do whatever they want to do.
The once famous American middle class, the bedrock of our democracy, is disappearing while the media distracts us with "reality" TV, shock jocks, and rants delivered by talking heads.
Are you ok with that? I'm not okay with that.
Corporate and Financial Institution Compensation Fairness Act: Amends the Securities Exchange Act to require that any proxy for an annual shareholders meeting provide for a separate shareholder vote to approve executive compensation for named executive officers. The shareholder vote shall not be:
Proponent's argument to vote Yes:Rep. BARNEY FRANK (D, MA-4): The amount of wages is irrelevant to the SEC. What this bill explicitly aims at is the practice whereby people are given bonuses that pay off if the gamble pays off, but don't lose you anything if it doesn't. That is, there is a wide consensus that this incentivizes excessive risk.
Opponent's argument to vote No:Rep. SPENCER BACHUS (R, AL-6): True, the first 6 pages of the bill give the owners, the shareholders, a non-binding vote on the pay of top executives. But then come the next 8 pages, the switch, which gives the regulators the power to decide appropriate compensation for not only just top executives but for all employees of all financial institutions above $1 billion in assets and all without regard for the shareholders' prior approval. So under the guise of empowering shareholders, it is, in fact, the government that is empowered. And, finally, on page 15, the bill designates those same government entities which regulated AIG, Countrywide, and collectively failed to prevent the worst financial calamity since the Great Depression. This bill continues the Democrat majority's tendency to go to the default solution for every problem: create a government bureaucracy to make decisions better left to private citizens and private corporations.
Proponent's argument to vote Yes:Rep. NYDIA VELÁZQUEZ (D, NY-12): We need jobs that cannot be shipped overseas and will not evaporate in the next cycle of boom and bust. But those jobs aren't going to appear out of thin air. They need to be created. By expanding existing industries and unlocking new ones, H.R. 2965 will generate the jobs we need. Job creation is the primary goal of R&D. But in order to generate new positions, we have to first develop new industries. Commercialization is critical to that process.
Opponent's argument to vote No:Rep. ED MARKEY (D, MA-7): I must oppose this bill because I have serious concerns about allowing SBIR awards to go to an unlimited number of businesses owned or controlled by venture capital (VC) firms. The SBIR program, responsible for over 60,000 patents, has always focused on innovation from truly small businesses for whom commercial capital market funding is typically not an option. However, with the change made in this bill, the SBIR program would be wide open to applicants that already are well-capitalized due to VC participation, crowding out the small businesses that have been the focus of the highly successful SBIR program.
While I support VC participation in the SBIR program, enabling an unlimited amount of large VC majority-owned firms to qualify for SBIR funding calls into question whether this program, intended for genuinely small businesses, is, in fact, still focused on these firms.
We should do everything in our power to strengthen small businesses that generate 70% of new jobs in our country. H.R 2965 does not do enough to ensure that small businesses are the focus of the SBIR program, and therefore I cannot support the bill.
Proponents support voting YES because:
We should not deprive the public, the stockholders, from being able to do anything meaningful once they find out about scandalous levels of executive compensation or board compensation. Everyone talks about the corporate board as the remedy. But the board is often a part of the problem, being paid huge amounts of money for showing up once or twice a year at meetings.
Give the stockholders a meaningful remedy. Once you get the mandatory disclosure put in place by previous legislation, we are saying the stockholders should be allowed to have a referendum on that and not have a runaround by the board.
Opponents support voting NO because:
This vote is based on mischaracterization--it is an unnecessary amendment. The opportunity for these kinds of votes already exists within the structure of corporate governance right now. A good company from Georgia, AFLAC, went ahead and already has these nonbinding shareholder votes. But there is a difference between having individuals in the private sector, shareholders and individuals outside of the mandating of government to have it occur and have government come in with its heavy hand and say, this is exactly what you need to do because we know best. Our constituents know better how to act and how to relate to corporations than Washington.

Congressional Summary:
Supporter's Comments: (by CUNA, a pro-credit union organization)
America's small businesses are the engine of growth of our nation's economy. The effects of the financial crisis of the past few years have spread to all types of lending, resulting in a reduction in the availability
of business credit. At a time when banks are withdrawing credit from America's small businesses, credit unions have actually been expanding credit to small businesses, but with more credit unions approaching the cap, this growth is threatened. Congress should enact legislation which increases the credit union member business lending cap from 12.25% of assets to 27.5% for well-capitalized credit unions
Opponent's Comments: (by the Independent Community Banks of America, Nov. 15, 2012)
The tax-subsidized credit union industry is pressing for doubling the statutory cap Congress placed on member business loans. Shifting assets from tax-paying banks to tax-exempt credit unions would reduce tax revenue to the government; the CBO estimates the revenue impact at $354 million over 10 years. We believe that banks are currently meeting the needs of credit-worthy businesses, as substantiated by numerous business surveys.
The United Food and Commercial Workers International Union (UFCW) is North America's Neighborhood Union--1.3 million members with UFCW locals in all 50 states, Puerto Rico and Canada. Our members work in supermarkets, drug stores, retail stores, meatpacking and meat processing plants, food processing plants, and manufacturing workers who make everything from fertilizer to shoes. We number over 60,000 strong with 25,000 workers in chemical production and 20,000 who work in garment and textile industries.
Constitutional Amendment
Opponents recommend voting NO because:[Supreme Court majority opinion in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, for which the Constitutional Amendment is proposed as a remedy. The FEC had ruled that the movie "Hillary", released in 2008 to persuade voters against Hillary Clinton, was illegal because it was a disguised campaign contribution made by a corporation. The Supreme Court overruled the FEC]:
Modern day movies might portray public officials in unflattering ways. Yet if a covered transmission [is broadcast] during the blackout period, a felony occurs solely because a corporation, [instead of a candidate or donors, paid] in order to engage in political speech. Speech would be suppressed in the realm where its necessity is most evident: in the public dialogue preceding a real election. Governments are often hostile to speech, but it seems stranger than fiction for our Government to make this political speech a crime. Some members of the public might consider Hillary to be insightful and instructive; some might find it to be [unfair]; those assessments, however, are not for the Government to make.

All the world's a stage, And all the men and women merely players; They have their exits and their entrances, And one man in his time plays many parts, His acts being seven ages. At first, the infant, Mewling and puking in the nurse's arms. Then the whining schoolboy, with his satchel And shining morning face, creeping like snail Unwillingly to school. And then the lover, Sighing like furnace, with a woeful ballad Made to his mistress' eyebrow. Then a soldier, Full of strange oaths and bearded like the pard, Jealous in honor, sudden and quick in quarrel, Seeking the bubble reputation Even in the cannon's mouth. And then the justice, In fair round belly with good capon lined, With eyes severe and beard of formal cut, Full of wise saws and modern instances; And so he plays his part. The sixth age shifts Into the lean and slippered pantaloon, With spectacles on nose and pouch on side; His youthful hose, well saved, a world too wide For his shrunk shank, and his big manly voice, Turning again toward childish treble, pipes And whistles in his sound. Last scene of all, That ends this strange eventful history, Is second childishness and mere oblivion, Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything.

INTRO(4) NetBSD Kernel Interfaces Manual INTRO(4)Powered by man-cgi (2024-03-20). Maintained for NetBSD by Kimmo Suominen. Based on man-cgi by Panagiotis Christias.
intro -- introduction to devices and device drivers
This section contains information related to devices, device drivers and miscellaneous hardware. The device abstraction Device is a term used mostly for hardware-related stuff that belongs to the system, like disks, printers, or a graphics display with its key- board. There are also so-called pseudo-devices where a device driver emulates the behaviour of a device in software without any particular underlying hardware. A typical example for the latter class is /dev/mem, a loophole where the physical memory can be accessed using the regular file access semantics. The device abstraction generally provides a common set of system calls layered on top of them, which are dispatched to the corresponding device driver by the upper layers of the kernel. The set of system calls avail- able for devices is chosen from open(2), close(2), read(2), write(2), ioctl(2), select(2), and mmap(2). Not all drivers implement all system calls, for example, calling mmap(2) on terminal devices is likely to be not useful at all. Accessing Devices Most of the devices in a UNIX-like operating system are accessed through so-called device nodes, sometimes also called special files. They are usually located under the directory /dev in the file system hierarchy (see also hier(7)). Note that this could lead to an inconsistent state, where either there are device nodes that do not have a configured driver associated with them, or there may be drivers that have successfully probed for their devices, but cannot be accessed since the corresponding device node is still missing. In the first case, any attempt to reference the device through the device node will result in an error, returned by the upper layers of the kernel, usually ENXIO. In the second case, the device node needs to be created before the driver and its device will be usable. Some devices come in two flavors: block and character devices, or to use better terms, buffered and unbuffered (raw) devices. The traditional names are reflected by the letters `b' and `c' as the file type identifi- cation in the output of `ls -l'. Buffered devices are being accessed through the buffer cache of the operating system, and they are solely intended to layer a file system on top of them. They are normally imple- mented for disks and disk-like devices only and, for historical reasons, for tape devices. Raw devices are available for all drivers, including those that also implement a buffered device. For the latter group of devices, the dif- ferentiation is conventionally done by prepending the letter `r' to the path name of the device node, for example /dev/rsd0[cd] denotes the raw device for the first SCSI disk, while /dev/sd0[cd] is the corresponding device node for the buffered device. Unbuffered devices should be used for all actions that are not related to file system operations, even if the device in question is a disk device. This includes making backups of entire disk partitions, or to raw floppy disks (i.e., those used like tapes). Access restrictions to device nodes are usually subject to the regular file permissions of the device node entry, instead of being enforced directly by the drivers in the kernel. Drivers without device nodes Drivers for network devices do not use device nodes in order to be accessed. Their selection is based on other decisions inside the kernel, and instead of calling open(2), use of a network device is generally introduced by using the system call socket(2). Configuring a driver into the kernel For each kernel, there is a configuration file that is used as a base to select the facilities and drivers for that kernel, and to tune several options. See config(1) for a detailed description of the files involved. The individual manual pages in this section provide a sample line for the configuration file in their synopsis portion. See also the sample config file /usr/src/sys/arch/i386/conf/GENERIC (for the i386 architecture).

Am I Covered When I Lend My Car To Friends Or Family?
If you own a car, chances are you've let a friend or family member borrow it at least once.
After all, there are plenty of reasons to hand over the keys. Maybe you needed a relative to pick up your kids from school. Or you're helping someone get to work after their car broke down.
But did you know that in the event of an accident, it's your auto insurance policy that typically would have to pay?
"By far, the number one misconception about loaning out your vehicle is that if you let your neighbor borrow your car, an accident should go on his insurance because he was the one driving," said Dave Freeman, vice president and regional underwriting officer at Erie Insurance. "But in private passenger auto insurance, the coverage typically follows the vehicle, not the driver."
Let's break it down.
If you're an ERIE customer, insured drivers include:
- Resident relatives: Most ERIE personal auto policies provide coverage to the named insured, their spouse or domestic partner, and any other resident relatives. So if someone is a member of your family and lives in your home, they're automatically an insured under your policy unless excluded.
- Domestic partners: If someone lives with you but isn't a relative, they are not named insureds under your policy. However, if you're living with a domestic partner, they can be added to your policy as a named insured but only if your relationship is the long-term, committed type – you share domestic responsibilities and have joint financial obligations. All you have to do is call your agent and let them know. They'll send out a short driver questionnaire and check your partner's driving record to determine eligibility.Related: What Insurance Do You Need When You Move in Together?
- Someone with permissive use: If you loaned out your car to a friend or neighbor, your ERIE policy generally will cover them – as long as you gave your permission. If they are a regular and repeated user of the car, they should also have coverage. The only exception is if a driver has been specifically excluded on your policy.
Finally: If someone else is regularly driving your car, it's important to let your agent know.
Chances are, anyone you let borrow your car will fall into one of these three categories. But just because someone is covered doesn't mean loaning your car is risk-free.
Here's the good news: If the driver falls into one of the three categories above, and the loss is covered under the terms of your policy, your insurance can help pay for the damage – even if you weren't the one driving.
But here's the tricky part: Depending on the situation – and the specifics of your policy – you might get stuck paying a surcharge on your auto insurance premium for an at-fault accident, even if you weren't the one driving at the time. (Every policy is different, so ask your ERIE agent if this applies to you.)
Related: What Determines the Price of My Auto Insurance?
According to Freeman, most people don't think about these 'what if' scenarios before lending their car.
"When you loan someone your car, you're putting your name out there as a responsible party," he explains. "You'll be protected within the limits of your auto policy, but there's always a chance of something happening that exceeds them."
For instance, if your neighbor runs a stop sign and causes significant injuries and property damage, you could be responsible for paying any amounts owed above the limits on your policy. That means you could be sued for your neighbor's negligent actions because they were using your vehicle. Liability in these situations varies by state, so check with your ERIE agent if you have specific questions.
And then, there's the question of what actually constitutes "permissive use." For example, maybe your daughter goes off to college and lets her friend borrow a car that's in your name – but you, as the named insured, didn't give permission. Is her accident covered? The answer could vary based on case law in each state.
Related: Whose Insurance Pays When My Friend Crashes My Car?
If you do have to file a claim, rest easy. Your ERIE agent can help you understand the ins and outs of your policy, and our award-winning claims service gives you prompt and personal attention to get back to normal.
"At ERIE, we look for a reason to pay a claim, not a reason to turn one down," said Freeman. "We want to find a way to pay your claim if the coverage is available. After all, that's why you bought a policy."
So here's the moral of the story: Always make sure you understand your liability before loaning out a vehicle.
And if you have any questions, your best course of action is to talk to your local ERIE agent<. they your trusted insurance advisor and are always ready to help you get the coverage personal attention deserve. id="cm-erie-footer">
A better insurance experience starts with ERIE.

Pest management is the measures or systems designed to regulate, relocate, or terminate insects or animals considered harmful to human and the environment. Proper pest control can be difficult and time-consuming but is often a necessity, especially in commercial and residential areas. This service is an important consideration for every home and business owner in Woolloongabba. Apart from saving money in the long-term the other reasons for this are discussed below.
Talk to a Specialist in Woolloongabba
If you need help with pest management in Woolloongabba get in contact with the our team of friendly, experienced and helpful staff right now. Simply fill in the contact form of give us a call on 1300 767 786. If you want to learn more about how and why control of insects and other animals is so important then please continue to read on.
Prevention of Allergies
Pests cause a range of health problems in susceptible people. These include skin allergies, asthma, and other respiratory problems. Bed bugs and mosquitoes for example, are notorious for causing skin rashes. Pests can also carry certain allergens that can cause strong allergic reactions in some people. Cockroach populations, for example, cause allergies in around 7% of the population. They are also to blame for causing asthma in children.
Avoiding the Spread of Diseases
Leprosy, Lyme disease, intestinal infections, skin infections, dengue, malaria, urinary tract infections, dysentery, and food poisoning are just a few of the health problems that bacteria and pathogen infested pests can cause. They also carry a number of other viruses that can affect human and animal health. Many of these diseases are treatable, but prevention is better than a ton of cure! Many of these health concerns can cause serious health issues in children, the elderly and immune-compromised individuals, many of whom may require professional medical treatment or hospitalization is infected. It is estimated that in Australia tens of millions of dollars are wasted each year in medical bills caused by the spread of diseases by insects, rodents and other animals.
Protecting Furniture, Carpets and Clothing
COntrol methods should be utilised to save furniture, carpets and clothing and avoid the expenses associated with repairs and potential replacement. Burrowing insects are notorious for causing damage to the wooden and fabric components of furniture. Others, such as carpet bugs, moths, cockroaches, bookworms and silverfish are also attracted to fabric, and will use it as a source of food, causing often irreparable damage.
The Future
Beyond residential and commercial pest control, there are other reasons why this service is vital for humanity. Our own food supply is critical to the survival the Australian population. This affects people in Woolloongabba just as much as it affects people anywhere else in Australia. On a macro economic level, it also influences the world's economies and supports majority of today's active industries. Without pest management, over 20% of our food supply could be wasted due to consumption by rodents. Each year, hundreds of millions of dollars worth of food is lost due to rodent infestation.
By controlling the threat, it is possible to keep food supplies at optimum levels. Implementing pest control measures can help prevent food waste and contamination. Pests do not only consume food, they also leave behind undesirable organic matter such as dead skin, body parts, feces and urine, all of which can affect the quality of the food we eat. We certainly don't want that in our food supply and we're sure you don't either!

Sen. George McGovern, who lost the 1972 presidential bid to Richard Nixon yet inspired a new generation of voters, has died. He was 90.
A family spokesman told the AP that McGovern died at 5:15 a.m. Sunday at a hospice in Sioux Falls, S.D., surrounded by family and friends.
Despite a landslide loss to Nixon, McGovern's candidacy and particularly his opposition to the Vietnam War was embraced by the left. McGovern later described the loss as one of the most disheartening points in his life, as South Dakota Public Broadcasting's Charles Michael Rays reports for our Newscast desk.
"I thought the program I spelled out there was the truth," McGovern said. "I thought it was best for America and I'll go to my grave believing America would be better off had I been elected."

20+ Years Experience
Specialist HVAC Installation
Your HVAC system (heating and air conditioning system) is one of the most important parts of your home. Not only does it keep your home cool in heatwaves or warmer months, but it can become an important part of staying comfortable during your day-to-day life.
If you need a new air conditioning system to replace an older worn-down model in July 2024 – or simply do not have a system at all yet – then you will want specialist help in getting the entire system set up. We can offer all of the HVAC installation expertise you will need to get the job done.
Our expert HVAC contractor teams are made up of dedicated HVAC industry specialists that know these systems inside and out. No matter what kind of new equipment you are looking for or how you want your new installation to be handled, we can provide the tools, equipment and capable hands to perfectly match our customers' needs.
We are a large team of experienced HVAC engineers in Sutton have an in-depth understanding of heating, ventilation and air conditioning. Working with countless clients in the past has allowed us to build up a wide range of experience, all of which enables us to provide even better service as air conditioning contractors.
Our work has always been carried out to the best of our ability, and we aim for maximum customer satisfaction whenever possible. We hold a variety of accreditations, including SFG20 for the maintenance of HVAC services and certifications, and install systems to BESA and BESCA Accreditation.
We have worked with domestic, industrial and commercial properties nationwide, providing Sutton Greater London customers with the HVAC installation options they need to keep their homes comfortable and safe. This means operating with both existing buildings and newly-built properties that lack an HVAC system design entirely.
Below I have made a list of the 6 most important things to know before installing a HVAC system:
We can provide all of the expected HVAC installation services in Sutton ,customers might need from plumbing work and heating system construction to air conditioning installation. No matter the combination of different tasks we are given, we can work on making sure that they are all done correctly.
The chillers we install throughout Greater London are all designed for maximum climate control and energy efficiency, helping to keep your home cool during summer. These systems can be complex, relying heavily on plumbing and pump systems, but they are a part of your new air conditioning system that we can install very well.
A condenserless chiller is a compact and reliable option that can provide a good air conditioner system in smaller buildings. This makes it an ideal cooling system for a smaller space, but the larger models are more useful in industrial settings.
Our expert staff can handle HVAC installation at almost any level, even if that means installing an industrial cooling system in a warehouse or other important building. Chillers have multiple core uses across various industries and scales, and condenserless options are one of many choices that can work very well.
An Air cooled chiller unit is a good alternative to water-cooled chillers, offering an easy way to cool down a room using ambient fresh air. These are incredibly effective in outdoor spaces or areas with a poor water supply, making them a great choice for certain industries or worksites where a normal air conditioner would not work well.
A VRV system is a specific kind of HVAC installation technology trademarked by Daikin industries. This has resulted in it being called VRF (variable refrigerant flow) by other companies.
This kind of system has become the standard option for 'premium' air conditioning systems, allowing for an automatically-adjusting flow of refrigerant that helps save energy and provide a more controlled kind of cooling system.
An air conditioning installation using a VRF system is often a very energy-efficient unit, automatically regulating energy usage based on temperature. This makes it one of the most popular choices in the industry since it can adjust the heating system to dynamically match the desired heat levels of each space it serves.
Not only do these units make proper operation much easier, but they can have the same general installation costs as a normal unit. Our expert staff have installed many heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems in the past, including multiple major VRF systems with highly specific installation requirements and client needs.
The cost of a HVAC replacement can vary but on average for a whole system replacement you would be looking at spending between £3,500 and £11,000 with an average cost of around £7,250. If you are looking for a new HVAC system installation you would be looking at paying anywhere between £5,000 and £30,000 with an average cost of around £17,000
An AHU, or air handling unit, is part of a central air conditioner system that helps to purify and renew indoor air that has been circulated through an entire building. These are essentially large air filters, but these systems also offer more control over temperature and humidity.
These units see a lot of use in industrial spaces or licensed professional businesses, places that are likely to have a large flow of people at all times. The added hygiene benefits and higher quality air also make it a better choice for anywhere that requires high hygiene standards.
An air handling unit can also contribute towards cooling, reducing the temperature of the air being pumped back into the building to help maintain moderate climates indoors. This kind of installation can be important for situations where an entire building needs reliable cooling and ventilation.
An FCU uses an indoor coil and fan to alter a room's temperature without needing any ductwork installation. The fan helps to push air over the coil, which either heats or cools the air itself before it is pushed back into the room.
These systems are a great single-unit option for situations where you need to alter the temperature of a single room. They also provide much lower energy costs and are far cheaper to install, as well as being one of the cooling options that we can install the fastest.
Despite their simplicity, we can easily install an FCU which will provide cool air and hot air on demand: either to supplement your existing air conditioning system or to provide easy cooling and heating to a single room-sized space.
A heat recovery unit is a good way to draw in heat that has already been used, improving energy efficiency and allowing some of the heat to be recycled into the fresh air being pumped into the system. These can help to heat an entire home while also reducing energy costs, but without sacrificing air quality or heat gain.
We can easily install these systems into an existing home or building, replacing part of your worn-out system and ensuring that you can get the warm air that you need to stay comfortable on a limited budget.
Our expert staff are able to approach data centres with specialised cooling options, helping to reduce severe temperatures and keep devices from overheating during long-term use. Servers can be a vital part of any business, especially those that operate entirely online, and good air conditioners are vital to maintaining the servers themselves.
We have numerous different methods for handling server room cooling, using various air conditioner and refrigeration system options to keep them cool and safe. This could include dynamically-adjusting temperature systems, split systems to cool rooms from both sides, or even specialised air conditioning systems aiming to maintain the room temperature at all costs.
Server room cooling requires some careful work to manage. Not all servers are designed the same way, so premade package systems are not the right choice – instead, our engineers can install an AC system that targets the servers in places where they generate the most heat.
Heating is an important part of any commercial business, and we aim to ensure that all of our clients can get the heating options they need with minimal issues. This means looking into the design of your space and figuring out how a split system could help to heat all of the important spaces without staying inconsistent.
Our engineers are capable of working out how to regulate the temperature of your building properly, focusing on both heating and cooling options while also considering ventilation and air quality. A commercial setting needs to be comfortable for customers, so keeping the air at the right temperature can be a major factor to consider.
If you have any specific requirements regarding the kind of commercial heating that you need, then you can talk to us directly for a full conversation about how the new system should be designed. Heating is important for any space, but commercial buildings thrive on using heating and comfort to drive customers towards possible sales.
A standard commercial boiler should provide more than enough heat and hot water to supply an entire building, but this depends on the boiler model. Some boilers boast higher energy efficiency than others but may be lacking in other factors such as water capacity or heating speed.
We can have our engineers look into finding the right boiler for your needs, especially if your existing boiler is damaged or worn down and needs immediate replacement. Like air conditioners, a boiler can be the heart of your building's ability to stay within a comfortable temperature range.
Boilers are also vital for getting hot water, which often means that some commercial businesses need them more than others. In some instances, a company may need a specialized boiler to meet their hot water demands since a standard boiler will not produce enough.
We can also replace your existing gas or oil boiler with a biomass boiler, which can use a range of different fuel sources to provide heating with a greater level of energy efficiency. Having a unit like this can also lead to reduced CO2 emissions in many cases, which might result in higher air quality in your home or business.
Systems like this are not always a standard option, but we can still have our engineers provide one if it is something that you have been considering. Biomass is available anywhere in the UK, and you can sometimes even use waste wood during an emergency if no other biomass is available.
We are able to provide a range of commercial plumbing and heating options alongside the usual air conditioning units that most people associate with these systems. Plumbing is a key component in any building, and heating can be vital for staying comfortable and safe throughout the year.
Each new system is meant to offer as much energy efficiency as possible while still staying in working order. The exact way that we install these systems heavily depends on both the building's floor plan and the kind of system that you want, meaning that each project is handled bespoke.
If you would like to receive even more information on HVAC services in Sutton, make sure you get in touch with us today!
A large part of our work involves setting up the installation options for plant rooms in industrial buildings, such as warehouses or manufacturing spaces. These are areas that require a lot more care and effort to keep at a stable temperature and air quality.
The work that we do is heavily based on making sure that we can satisfy client needs, and that includes setting up air conditioning systems that match the chosen space. For example, a warm industrial space may require more air conditioners to reduce the temperature and humidity to comfortable, safe levels.
Most plant spaces are going to be unique in design and functionality, meaning that every single air conditioning system will have to be bespoke. Even two buildings performing the same roles will require different levels of heating in different places, and that can require some careful planning to achieve this.
How we handle an industrial space depends on the client's requests and wishes, so we will always aim for the best results possible while still sticking to their budget and needs. Each air conditioning system has to be tweaked to match the space it will be servicing.
Commercial air conditioning is vital for keeping commercial spaces cool, something that can matter a lot in a wide range of industries. Any space that gets too hot can become both uncomfortable or a genuine health hazard, and those are two things that can kill a commercial business completely from both a social and legal standpoint.
Using a heat gain calculation based on the heating and cooling season times can work, but we use our engineers to figure out simple, effective ways of treating overheating spaces. This can mean installing a more reliable air conditioning system or even replacing parts of the outdoor unit while keeping the indoor unit roughly the same.
A large part of our work regarding air conditioning units means gathering further information about how a space heats up. Understanding the flow of air and the main sources of natural heat in a space can enable us to cool it more effectively, giving you a more reliable and energy-efficient system.
A chilled water air conditioning system can provide great results while also boosting energy efficiency, helping to cool down a space using both air and water rather than relying purely on cool air.
These systems are also more complex than a standard AC system since they rely on components like a condenser coil instead of evaporator coil technology. While this leads to additional costs, the system can save you money on the energy used to actually cool the space in the first place.
Water has to be regularly re-added to these systems to make up for any water lost during evaporation, and the results of the system's cooling efforts depend on the humidity and pressure of the air around it. This is often still more effective than a standard evaporator coil like those found in normal air conditioning units.
Heat pumps are an effective all-weather method for heating a building up, pumping air between spaces and ensuring that the air is always warm when it arrives in another room. These pumps extract heat from the air and pump it into the coolant, which is compressed to release the heat into the indoor air.
While this is a very simplified breakdown of how these pumps work, they can be a very effective tool that can work even if the air outside is not particularly warm. These pumps do not use much energy, making them an energy-efficient unit that can work in almost any building that needs additional heating.
An air source heat pump sucks heat up from the air. These can have fairly low installation costs and do not take much work to set up but are generally weaker than their ground-based counterparts due to the lower level of heat in the air compared to the ground.
A ground source heat pump will suck heat out of the ground directly, providing a more stable source of heat compared to the air. However, this costs more to install and can often be more expensive, meaning that the installation process will not be quite as quick and easy.
The core advantages of an HVAC system are often immediately apparent, but there are others that are not nearly as noticeable in day-to-day life.
Apart from increased energy efficiency compared to other options types, an HVAC system can warm or cool a space more reliably, providing consistent temperature control. Most HVAC systems also have a longer lifespan than the alternatives since they are a combined system rather than multiple systems jammed together.
These systems also ensure a greater return on investment, providing better results than the individual systems and also increasing the value of your home. For businesses, the benefits are even more clear since productivity and customer comfort are likely to spike after getting a good HVAC system installed.
We can help you get the exact kind of air conditioner that you need, ensuring that all of the right benefits apply while still giving you the results that you were expecting. Our engineers can find the perfect balance between direct improvements and long-term benefits, giving you the best of both worlds.
We can supply and install products from the following manufacturers throughout Greater London, among others.
All of these systems and products are installed to the highest possible standard of quality, based on what our clients need. We also make sure that equipment from different companies is compatible before trying to install these alongside one another.
Below I have listed some of the benefits of Attic Ventilation Systems:
An HVAC system can be the best unit choice for people who plan to sell their home soon. A freshly-installed HVAC from a well-known brand can often boost your house's value considerably, especially in areas where temperatures are naturally high, and a good air conditioner can have a lot of practical value.
An HVAC system is focused around controlling the environment of whatever room it is installed in. Like a typical air conditioner, these systems can help reduce heat in a space, but they are also capable of heating, providing ventilation, or even managing certain plumbing-related factors.
HVAC systems are essentially a perfected version of a standalone air conditioning unit, offering complete climate control. This makes them the ideal choice for anybody who wants to properly adjust their building's climate and temperature and can be as simple or complex as each client needs.
In certain industries, an HVAC system can be a necessary part of operating a business or service, usually those where the temperature has to be carefully controlled. Kitchens, server rooms and medical spaces are only a few of many, many examples.
These systems keep customers and workers comfortable, as well as increase overall safety in a space. However, its role in the hospitality and industrial industries is not identical.
Hospitality businesses often rely on an HVAC system to increase comfort, reduce air stagnancy, remove bad smells, and generally satisfy customers. It also provides a steady flow of clean, warm water, something that can be vital for any business that serves customers directly.
In the industrial sector, these systems are more of a protective tool, providing safety and comfort to workers while also ensuring that important materials or products are not left to freeze or overheat. Once again, having a reliable source of safe water at varying temperatures can be important for manufacturing or just for keeping employees safe and hydrated.
Most HVAC systems last between fifteen and twenty-five years, but this heavily depends on the system itself. This is about as long as a standalone air conditioner can last.
Remember that these systems can last longer if they are maintained properly, including damaged or worn-out parts (such as the evaporator coil and metering device) being swapped out.
HVAC systems can be a necessary part of increasing comfort and safety, both at home and in the workplace.
An air conditioner is a standalone air conditioner unit, while an HVAC includes an air conditioner by default. This means that you can have an air conditioner without an HVAC system, but not an HVAC system without an air conditioner.
An air conditioner is not the core focus of an HVAC system, so in some cases, the air conditioner may not be the main focus of the system itself.
Heat pumps are a worthwhile installation upgrade that offers great results with reduced energy usage, offering more efficient heating.
A furnace is less complex to install but also offers more limited benefits than a full system. Comparing a furnace to a heating system is like comparing a fridge to an air conditioner unit – similar in a few ways but with different purposes behind them.
A heating pump unit will rapidly heat up a space, while a refrigeration system will rapidly cool it down. Both offer great efficiency, but they are opposite units to one another.
These installations can use gas but mostly use electricity unless specified otherwise. This depends on the exact unit and type of equipment, so be sure to contact us if you want a specific option.
It is better to run a fan on a higher speed if you want more cooling effects. On a more windy day, your body will feel a lot cooler compared to a non-windy day when the temperature is the exact same.
It is a common misconception that air conditioning is expensive to run. Although costs can vary drastically from installation to installation and are dependent upon a number of factors, including the running time of the unit and the unit and the heating and cooling loads, air conditioning is usually very economically.
More modern units that include heat pumps provide heating in addition to cooling. This is often very economical to run when compared to other forms of heating systems.
You want to look at the air conditioning power, energy efficiency ad noise. There are many kinds of air conditioning units that can fulfill your cooling needs, but you should be able to shortlist the ones that work best for you.
Experts say that it is safe to have your window air conditioning unit running all day. No part of the air conditioning unit will get too hot and melt if you keep it running all day. The actual performance of the air conditioner wont suffer if you forget to turn it off.
It is not the kW that determines the size of the heat exchanger, but the amount of pressure drop allowed. This is because the applications are low NTU. Some other factors that determine size include the approach temperature and the plate material selected for the heat exchanger.
Whether you want a simple air conditioner or a complex outdoor condenser-based system, we can provide a range of heating, ventilation and air conditioner options that will work for you. Each one is aimed for maximum efficiency and quality whenever possible.
Remember that there are countless different options out there, all of which offer something new or specialised. If you want to find out more about what we can offer, then contact us directly to talk to some of our experts and specialists about a system that might interest you.
We are always happy to hear from you, and our engineers are on standby, waiting for another project to tackle. No matter your needs, we can aim to meet them perfectly.

Forthose curious, the exact escaping performed on the string may vary slightly depending on your database configuration.
For example, if your database's standard_conforming_strings variable is OFF, backslashes are treated as a special character and pg_escape_string() will ensure they are properly escaped. If this variable is ON, backslashes will be treated as ordinary characters, and pg_escape_string() will leave them as-is. In either case, the behavior matches the configuration of the database connection.

Complementary Color
Use the palette to pick a color or the sliders to set the RGB, HSV, CMYK components. Search for a color by its name in the list containing more than 2000 names.
There are many ways to mix/generate a color. Computer screens display the required color mixing tiny red, green and blue lights (RGB). Turning off all three components results in a black pixel, while if all components are lit up on full brightness that results a white light.
In print we use cyan, yellow, magenta and black (CMYK) inks because usually we print on a white paper. In this case the lack of the ink will result white paper, and we get a dark shade if more colors are mixed together. We can also define a color by hue, saturation and value (HSV).

Edgewater Debt Management
The two most difficult things to manage are time and money. In Edgewater, there are different debt relief options to choose from, but debt management and debt consolidation are the most reliable picks chosen by people. Debt consolidation can be utilized by making a loan or not. It refers to the financial strategy that combines all debts from different sources together and offering to pay for either a lower monthly rate or smaller lump sum amount.
Debt management is also a practical and proven choice. It involves a plan to eliminate all your debts through a counseling agency. Debt can pertain to overdue bills from a credit card company or an amount that you owe to someone. Preferably, you will make a monthly payment to the agency, and they will be the ones to distribute the money to the creditors you're involved in a schedule that's favorable for both parties.
Call Optimal Debt Solutions at (561) 475-5788 if you need help with your credit card debt.
Advantages of Debt Management
Debt Management Experts Represent You
Taking a debt management program will give you an extra hand in dealing with your financial problem. A debt management expert will walk you through the whole process, and he will do the negotiation job on your behalf. He will work in your favor.
The convincing part is the most crucial, but with the help of a specialist, everything will fall unto their proper places. He will use his skills, expertise, and experiences in handling the negotiation. Your monthly bills and interest rates must become lower after the negotiation. You have nothing to worry about; the right representative will portray you with a significant balance of pride and humility.
The Program Aims to Work on Your Budget
Not everybody has a stable income. When unexpected things such as hospital bills, educational fees, unemployment, etc. arise, your bills won't adjust to you, you will have to pay them no matter what your situation is. In a debt management program, a debt relief specialist asks for your monthly salary and basic expenses to help you come up with the most feasible budget that is appropriate for the type of living that you have.
These counseling agencies will never compromise your basic needs and essential concerns; they will analyze your income and spendings to give you a budget plan. They will adjust it to what you can only provide every month, also allowing you to save money to pay your debts.
A Loan is Never Necessary
Some people refuse to take a debt management program because they think they will have to make a loan first before anything can progress. That is not true. You can sign up for a debt management program despite the absence of any loan. Another line of credit can be a new cause of a dilemma, so it's okay if you don't want to make any of that.
What's necessary is to have an ambassador to represent you in front of the creditors and prove that you can stay true to your word that you will pay the agreed amount on a specific day every month. If you fail to do as agreed, troubles may start chasing you and you might come to a place that is worse than your previous situation.
Credit Score Does Not Disqualify You
Many people warn you about your credit score. They say when your credit score is low, companies will never trust you with an amount you are trying to borrow from them. In some cases, this may be true, but in orders like debt management, they don't matter at all. As long as you are doing your part, then your credit grade will not be taken against you.
Financial Debt Specialists Will Educate You
You may expect that financial debt specialists will guide you all the way. The best part is, they don't just do things for you, they also educate you. You are not left hanging and second-guessing; you will know what every step means and what implications it gives to your financial situation. They are obliged to provide information and tools that will help you grow financially.
They will teach you based on their expertise and experience put together to prevent other financial troubles that are waiting around the corner. The bottom line is, you will become financially stable as you should be!
Reach out to Optimal Debt Solutions in Edgewater
In Edgewater, having an expert by your side when resolving debt issues is like wearing a life vest. The procedure you have to go through in any debt relief method is best handled with the help of a professional. Debt can pull you down until your life becomes wrecked.
Our debt management experts will ensure that you will be free from any debt after the entire process. They will guide you in processing papers, and most crucially, in convincing the creditors to take your offer. With many years in the industry, we will educate you on the best financial strategies that we have. Book a free consultation now!

Credit bureaus collect and sell four basic types of information:
Identification and employment information
Your name, birth date, Social Security number, employer, and spouse's name are routinely noted. The CRA also may provide information about your employment history, home ownership, income, and previous address, if a creditor requests this type of information.
Payment history
Your accounts with different creditors are listed, showing how much credit has been extended and whether you've paid on time. Related events, such as referral of an overdue account to a collection agency, may also be noted.
CRAs must maintain a record of all creditors who have asked for your credit history within the past year, and a record of those persons or businesses requesting your credit history for employment purposes for the past two years.
Public record information
Events that are a matter of public record, such as bankruptcies, foreclosures, or tax liens, may appear in your report.

Stop us if you've heard this one: A spacecraft flies out of the solar system ...
Yes, the planetary probe Voyager 1, launched in the era of Jimmy Carter and bell-bottoms, has finally left the room, so to speak, years after completing its primary mission: a "grand tour" of the gas giants Jupiter and Saturn (twin Voyager 2 also visited Uranus and Neptune).
And years after we first started talking about its departure.
Rewind to 2003. NPR's Richard Harris reported that Voyager 1 is "starting to probe the outermost edge of the solar system."
That's the first of many stories we've done over the years anticipating Voyager's arrival at the mysterious boundary called the heliopause, a region of space where the solar wind dies out and interstellar space begins.
In 2005, Edward Stone, Voyager's chief scientist, told All Things Considered host Melissa Block that the probe had reached "a turbulent zone" roughly marking the edge of the solar system.
Jump ahead to 2010 and listen to an interview with astronomer Neil deGrasse Tyson on the subject of the probe's imminent departure.
Just in the last year or so, we've done six more stories in what might be dubbed "Voyager's long goodbye":
June 21, 2012: A Final Voyage, Into The Wild Black Yonder
July 22, 2012: Voyager 1 Bids Farewell to the Solar System
Sept. 5, 2012: After 35 Years, Voyager Nears Edge Of Solar System
Dec. 4, 2012: NASA's Voyager 1 Reaches The 'Magnetic Highway'
Aug. 19, 2013: Has Voyager 1 Left The Solar System?
Aug. 25, 2013: Far Out: Voyager 1 Might Be Over The Edge, Into Deep Space
The problem is, that "it's not that clear because there's no signpost telling you that you're now leaving the solar system," Arik Posner, Voyager's program scientist, told me in an interview last year.
Signpost or no signpost, Posner and others now say (and are pretty confident this time) that Voyager crossed over the boundary (drumroll ...) more than a year ago — Aug. 25, 2012, to be precise.
Which leads us to Thursday's fairly definitive headline: See Ya, Voyager: Probe Has Finally Entered Interstellar Space.
And just in time: Voyager 2, a few billion miles behind Voyager 1, is nearing the edge of the solar system.

The NexusDB NXRecover Tool
NXRecover is a commandline/gui tool that will run a recover table procedure for
the given table. It is a free tool and we very strongly advise to run this
procedure for every table on upgrading to new releases of NexusDB server.
As recovery should be run using the same recovery version as the NexusDB version you are using, there are no downloads here. Licensed customers can find the recovery tool on their customer pages, under the binaries section; alternatively, compile the utility yourself from source provided in the ..\NexusDBx\Recover directory.
Users without source or license are limited to using the recovery facility built into Enterprise Manager.
While we're taking every care we can, bugs are natural and happen. Some of the bugs that
are fixed for every version of NexusDB can potentially have left some of your tables in
a fragile state that can lead to follow up problems even though the cause of the problem
is not present in the current version anymore.
A very good example of that is the infamous heap engine bug that plagued a small few of our customers and which has left some of their tables in a partly corrupted state without them noticing it:
All versions of NexusDB prior to 2.07 could cause under certain rare circumstances a subtle corruption in the management information in heap blocks. Heap blocks are used by both the blob engine and the variable length record engine. The initial corruption itself is not obvious as it doesn't directly cause any data corruption or error messages. But if the heap block is modified after the initial corruption in certain ways the corruption can escalate and result in actual data corruption and memory overwrites inside the server. The fixes in 2.07 can prevent this initial corruption, but not the escalation if the corruption is already present. Using EM to recover their tables (after applying the appropriate fixes to the code of course) solved all these problems.
To make this task easier we have created NXRecover which is included in source in every release from 2.07 onwards. On this site we also always link to the newest version of the tool which also includes a simple batch file that can be used to run the recovery process for every table of a certain directory.
How to use?
NXREcover is very simple to use. It takes one command line parameter being the name of the table. So you e.g. start it with:
nxRecover f:\MyData\table1.nx1
NXRecover will upon start create a backup of your table and then run a recover process and replace the old table with the recovered one. After that it will add an entry to the nxRecover.log file and close.
You can of course run it from a batch file, the following is included in the binary downloads and runs NXRecover for all tables in the either the given directory (param %1) or the current director (if no param specified):
@echo off cls echo ---------------------------------- echo -- NexusDB Batch Table Recovery -- echo ---------------------------------- set dir=%1 if /%1 == / set dir=%CD% set /A count = 0 for %%i in (%dir%\*.nx1) do set /A count += 1 echo. echo Selected Directory: %dir% (%count% tables to recover) echo. for %%i in (%dir%\*.nx1) do ( echo Recovering %%i start /wait /min nxRecover.exe %%i) echo. echo. echo Recovery done. Please check log file. echo. pause

The Science of Chiropractic
Chiropractic understands and appreciates the significant role the nervous system plays in the health of the entire body. As the master controller of all cells, tissues and organs in the body, the nervous system controls and coordinates the functioning of the body. Any irritation or interference to the nervous system will hamper its ability to communicate with cells, tissues and organs, thus, compromising it's control over the body. Once this occurs, the ability of the body to remain in health is jeopardized and the individual becomes susceptible to injury and disease processes.
By removing nerve irritation and interference via the treatment of vertebral subluxations and other spinal abnormalities, the nervous system is able to correctly manage and control the bodily functions. When the nervous system functions optimally, the body is able to fight off disease processes and maintain a state of optimal health.
The chiropractic spinal adjustment is the key to removing these spinal subluxations and other spinal abnormalities which cause pain and impair nerve functioning. The effectiveness of chiropractic treatment has been well established within the scientific research and has been consistently shown to be significantly more effective than medical management for most commonly encountered back-related ailments.

I read this interesting article from the Washington Post this morning talking about patients who have pain without a known cause -- meaning all testing that has been done is negative. The term somatization disorder is given to these individuals.
(Don't get me wrong, all the blogs that I read talking about pain do have a medical diagnosis and are receiving treatment. I want to be clear that I'm not labelling anyone that I read with the above term.)
I found the article interesting because it describes a treatment called "Cognitive Behavior Therapy," that teaches patients practical skills to help manage their symptoms.
The patients' ability to function, as measured by the number of stairs they could climb and the distance they could walk, was improved, and they reported being less troubled by 40 symptoms, including headaches, nausea, joint pain and difficulty swallowing.The article goes on to say that those with this disorder may be more focused on their bodies than other people and have difficulty determining what is "normal" aches and pains - perhaps a "hypersensitive nervous system."
Arthur Barsky, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School and expert on medically unexplained symptoms, said he considers cognitive therapy essential.From my perspective, pain is a difficult thing to get a handle on. There has been a movement, especially in the medical community, to make an assessment of pain (during an office or hospital visit) as common as taking a blood pressure or obtaining other vital signs. I think this is a good thing, because I admit that docs probably don't address pain very well.
"I focus on the way people think about their symptoms and try to decrease their hyper-vigilance," said Barsky, who has published studies of both somatization and hypochondria. He teaches patients to stop scrutinizing how fast their heart is beating, for example, to quit touching their neck to see if a lymph node is swollen, and to avoid searching the Internet for clues to their symptoms.
I definitely agree that there is a mind/body link. With that in mind, there has to be options for these individuals with somatization disorder. If cognitive therapy is proven to help is most cases, I'll definitely utilize this treatment option. I'll be closely watching the scientific/clinical studies as they further unfold.
