Palamalai, is a small hill near near the sub-urban areas of Coimbatore. From the center of the city, it is located at around 25 KM distance. One needs to go to the Mettuppalayam Road, Periyanayakan Pirivu, Kovanoor and Palamalai. The roads are quite ok, and there was a road going over this small hill – So I thought why not go there and have a look…
The (far) sub-urban areas of Coimbatore are almost like villages. These are quite different from the city. You can see vast expanse of fields, lush greenery, small houses all along the way and even Tea shops with a bench – typical village style.
Once you cross Kovanoor, there is absolutely no sign of people or houses. Its just you and the mountains.
I was expecting some people to cross me from the other way (or even by my way), but throughout my way up, I wasn't able to see even a single vehicle! So, its me. my bike and the hills – Nothing else. I was actually getting a cool breeze at 2 PM in the afternoon, when I went! But while coming back, I saw a couple of Jeeps and bikes coming in the opposite direction. One guy was even driving a TVS 50 over the hills!
It seems, people can come till Kovanoor by bus and from there they can hire Jeeps to go up. I asked if I could go with a Two Wheeler, and they said yes. It seems, its only a small hill.
The scenery was much better than what you can see in the above photo. Actually I did not plan to go here. I went to the Ramakrishna Mission Ramayan park and was casually speaking to people out there. I saw some hills near by and asked if there was a road going near it, so that I could take some photos. They told me that I could even climb over the hills through a road, and visit a temple there.
Yes, there is a temple on the hill. One needs to travel for 4 KM over the hill to reach this place. This temple is called 'Arulmigu Palamalai Aranganadhar Thirukkovil' – A Perumal (Vishnu) Temple.
Driving on a mountain was tougher than I thought. I went only for 4 KM over the mountain road, and boy, it was exhausting. Perhaps more exhausting for my bike! Actually there was a road going beyond the temple (in another direction) too, but I did not try it! It seems there are some small tribal villages there. I was able to see one of them from a distance.
The roads were pretty narrow & curvy and one needs a lot of patience (and good breaks) to drive over hills! The way back was even more challenging than going up. The bike would get more momentum when traveling down hill and if you are not on your breaks constantly, the bike might just speed up very fast. Yeah, you can just switch off the bike and ride it down, but I kept it in neutral.
I think, since this place is just around 25 KM from the city, people could just go there for the nice and pleasant view. How much people of Chennai/Bangalore would wish that they had a hill so close to the city! 🙂
You can see some more photos taken by me at Palamalai from the below embedded video slide show (Youtube; 4 min: 09 sec):

Technology is disrupting most industries and has had an enormous impact on the agency industry. Today's clients are expecting more and agencies have to become more collaborative, integrated and data-driven to remain competitive.
Agencies are now turning to CRM systems and applications that are designed to manage and maintain customer relationships, track engagements and sales, and deliver actionable data—all in one place.
CRM solutions streamline processes and increase profitability in your sales, marketing, and service divisions. A strong CRM solution is a multifaceted platform where everything crucial to developing, improving, and retaining your customer relationships is stored.
Without the support of an integrated CRM solution, you may miss growth opportunities and lose revenue because you're not maximising your business relationships.
Imagine misplacing customer contact information, only to learn that your delay pushed your client into the arms of a competitor. Or, picture your top two salespeople pursuing the same prospect, resulting in an annoyed potential customer and some unfriendly, in-house competition.
Without a centralised program where your people can log and track customer interactions, your business falls behind schedule and out of touch.
CRM tools make the customer-facing functions of business easier. They help you centralise customer information; automate marketing interactions; provide business intelligence; facilitate communication; track sales opportunities, analyse data and enable responsive customer service.
Running a successful business is no simple task. When marketing campaigns, data analysis, meetings, customer care, and more all happen simultaneously, you need a powerful CRM solution to bring all these functions together in one place.
Chase Software delivers the full spectrum of CRM that work seamlessly together including sales, customer service, field service, project service automation, and marketing. Experience a comprehensive business management solution that helps people work faster and smarter, and gives your business the flexibility to adapt to new opportunities and growth.
Sometimes, it's as simple as remembering a request from a customer – which becomes so much more important if you forget it. Because we're always looking for ways to make our software a key element of your success, we had to acknowledge those critical encounters with customers that could result in new business.
Neglected, they not only mean a lost opportunity but also an overall loss of your clients' trust in your attention to their needs. CRM helps enhance your relationship with your clients, because you can provide personalised communication and service to each one equally.
Furthermore, you can accumulate data across client interactions and analyse this information to discover hidden patterns. It helps you get a grip on those soft metrics that are so important. Things like remembering to phone them back about a query, email an important brochure, or send them a thank you card. These may not result in immediate income but often create the good will that paves the way to it.

Can dogs eat pistachios? Are pistachios safe for dogs? Are there any benefits or risks of dogs eating nuts? Find the answers in the guide below!
Pistachios are a rich and flavorful nut, packed full of nutrients.
They make a great snack for humans - but what about our furry friends? Often, the foods we eat ourselves aren't necessarily safe for our pets to eat.
So, are pistachios OK for dogs? We'll explore this question in detail in the guide below.
Fun Facts About Pistachios
Pistachios come from one of the oldest flowering nut trees in the world. It is thought that our ancestors have consumed pistachios for upwards of 9,000 years.
The pistachio is also one of only two nuts ever mentioned in the Bible (Genesis 43:11). They have a long and storied history, and in the modern age, they even have their own holiday (February 26th is National Pistachio Day in the United States)!
The pistachio tree grows well in hot climates. Iran is the largest exporter of pistachios, but in the United States the majority of pistachios come from California.
Pistachios make for a popular snack in many areas of the world. They are often roasted and salted to enhance their flavor.
They are a nutritious treat for humans - but are pistachios good for dogs? To explore the relationship between pistachios and dogs, let's first look at nuts in general.
Nuts and Dogs
Most nuts are considered relatively healthy for humans - but what about dogs?
Well, there are a few things to understand. One is that nuts are generally very high in calories. The other is that they are high in fat.
Fat is not necessarily a bad thing, although it has been demonized in the past. Many people claim that a high-fat diet in dogs can contribute to pancreatitis, but this claim has not been adequately verified.
In fact, it appears that fat is not intrinsically bad for dogs, and some experts say that a significant portion of daily calories should come from fat sources.
The topic needs more research, but it's important to understand that, in moderation, fat is healthy for dogs. This guide explores the facts about fat in a dog's diet.
With that said, the high caloric content of nuts and other high-fat foods is important to keep an eye on. This is particularly true if your dog is overweight.
Some nuts are difficult for dogs to digest, which can result in an upset stomach.
Specific nuts, like walnuts and pecans, may contain toxins that can be harmful for dogs.
So, what about pistachios? Are pistachios bad for dogs?
Can Dogs Eat Pistachios?
Are dogs allergic to pistachios? Are pistachios poisonous to dogs?
The answer to both of these questions is NO.
Pistachios are not toxic to dogs, nor do dogs typically have allergies to pistachios.
In small quantities, pistachios are safe for dogs.
With that said, there are some things to keep in mind.
Never feed your dog unshelled pistachios (or any unshelled nut). The tough shells can cause digestive issues, and some nut shells are toxic.
Also, be aware of the high fat and high caloric content of pistachios. Nuts should be eaten in moderation.
Lastly, allergic reactions in specific dogs are always possible. Like humans, dogs can develop allergies to nearly any food. Pistachios are not often an allergen for dogs, but it's always possible.
When are Pistachios Bad for Dogs?
Feeding dogs pistachios occasionally and in small quantities is not harmful.
However, feeding a dog large quantities of pistachios or other nuts can lead to weight gain, upset stomach, and potentially more serious health problems.
Nuts should not constitute a significant portion of a dogs diet, and should be used more as an occasional treat.
If your dog is overweight, pistachios are not a good treat due to their high caloric value. Just 1 oz of pistachios contains more than 150 calories!
Additionally, pistachio shells can be harmful, so only feed your pet shelled nuts.
When are Pistachios Good For Dogs?
In moderation, treats of pistachios for dogs may actually be beneficial.
Pistachios are protein-rich, and offer a good portion of dietary fiber.
They are high in fat, but the bulk of the fat content is unsaturated fat, which can have some health benefits in moderation.
In short, a few shelled pistachios make for a good snack for otherwise healthy dogs.
For overweight dogs, pistachios are not the best snack.
How to Prepare Pistachios For Dogs
Pistachios should always be shelled prior to being given to your dog.
You can either buy shelled pistachios, or remove the shells yourself.
Pistachios can be given as occasional treats, or mixed into your dog's normal food.
These nuts should not make up a significant portion of your dog's diet.
Can Dogs Eat Pistachios? Summary
So, we've answered the question of can dogs eat pistachios - and the answer is yes, in moderation.
Just be aware of a few things: pistachio shells can be harmful, pistachios are high in fat, and pistachios are high in calories.
If your dog is overweight or has pancreatitis, pistachios should be avoided. If your dog has any other medical condition, it's best to check with your vet.
As long as you remember these things, and use them in moderation, pistachios are safe for dogs!

TPO Roofing: Everything You Need To Know
If you've seen a bright white roof, then you may be familiar with TPO roofing. As one of the most common roof types of big commercial facilities, TPO has some of the best energy savings for single-ply membrane roofing!
Here at West Roofing Systems, we've been installing Single-Ply Membrane Roofing for over 40 years.
In this article, we cover everything you need to know about TPO roofing.
What Is Single-Ply Membrane Roofing?
Single-Ply Membranes are sheets of rubber and other synthetics that can be ballasted, mechanically fastened or chemically adhered to insulation creating a layer of protection on your commercial facility.
While Single-Ply Membrane Roofing is one of the most well-known types of commercial roofing material, there are several types to fit your budget and facility needs.
There are two main types of single-ply membrane commercial roofing: Thermoplastic Polyolefin (TPO) and Ethylene Propylene Diene Terpolymer (EPDM).
They differ in their chemical makeup, how they are installed and their energy efficiencies.
What is TPO Roofing?
Thermoplastic Polyolefin is a single-ply roofing membrane that is one of the fastest growing commercial roofing systems on the market. TPO roofing systems are made up of a single layer of synthetics and reinforcing scrim that can be used to cover flat roofs.
TPO membranes are manufactured in sheets that are 10, 12 or 20 feet wide. These sheets are then rolled up and taken to the commercial facility.
TPO has gained industry acceptance with the natural reflective surface to reflect UV rays. As reported by the National Roofing Contractors Association (NRCA) TPO takes up about 40% of the commercial roofing market share.
TPO Roofing Installation
After the existing substrate is prepared, either by cleaning or removing the existing roof, the insulation is installed. There are a few types of insulation options the facility manager/owner can choose from:
- Polyisocyanurate (Polyiso) – The most used insulation type for roofing applications, Polyiso is more expensive but pays off with a higher R-value rating.
- Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) – With the highest R-value per dollar, EPS is used for roof, wall and floor insulation. EPS can be used for ground contact and does not retain water over time.
- Extruded Polystyrene (XPS) – Usually defined by the blue, green or pink color, XPS falls in-between Polyiso and EPS in the range of price and performance. XPS is semipermeable with a perm rating of 1.
The TPO membrane can be attached to the cover board with a bonding adhesive or mechanically fastened. When the membrane is rolled out, the contractor then returns and uses a hot-air gun to hot air weld the seams together.
Here's a video of the West Roofing Systems team installing a TPO Single-Ply Membrane Roofing System:
TPO Roofing Costs
For an average 20,000 sq. foot commercial roof, it will usually cost between $3.50 and $7.50 per square foot in materials and labor to install a typical single-ply membrane commercial roofing system.
To get the best rubber roofing prices, you will need to consider these key factors:
- The size of your roof
- The condition of the existing roof
- Access to roof
- Insulation choice
- Membrane choice
- Installation choice
- Roof penetrations
- Type of warranty
Advantages of TPO Roofing
If properly installed and maintained, a commercial single-ply membrane roof can last 30 years. There are quite a few other benefits of single-ply membrane roofing systems:
- Customer Choice of Insulation – Since single-ply membrane roofing does not include the insulation factor, as a customer you have more options to choose from to insulate your facility's roof.
- Class A Fire-Rated – TPO membranes and EPDM can achieve Underwriters Laboratories (UL) Class A fire resistance listings by adding fire retardant chemicals during the manufacturing process.
- Reflective or Retentive – TPO is generally white and highly reflective. On the other side of the spectrum, EPDM is often described as "Black Roofs," due to the natural dark color of the membrane.
How TPO Roofing Saves Money
The most common TPO material is bright white with highly reflective properties. This bright white roof installation can reflect UV rays and heat from the building, saving money during the summer months from decreased energy usage to cool the building interior.
Single-Ply Membrane Roofing Systems have been the go-to roofing for commercial, industrial, and manufacturing facilities for decades.
West Roofing Systems, Inc. installs sustainable and efficient roofing systems for commercial, industrial, manufacturing and municipal buildings. In over 40 years, we have installed over 57,000,000 square feet of commercial Spray polyurethane foam (SPF), single ply membrane and other popular roofing systems.

The importance of premix mortar in present days is inevitable. Depending on the type of products we are dividing it 4 categories
a) Readymade Plaster
b) Block Jointing Mortar
c) Cementitious Tile Adhesive
d) Cementitious Underlayment
A. Readymade Plaster
Plaster is a mineral coating with protective and decorative functions. Plaster is applied at a thickness that can vary from a few millimetres to a few centimetres, for the purpose of levelling off masonry surfaces in order to make them even. The widespread use of this type of coating is due to the fact that it is economical, quick to prepare and easy to apply. Since it was first introduced at the end of the nineteenth century, plaster has been subjected to substantial variations regarding both its composition and its function. Initially the so-called "gauged" mortars (a mixture of lime, cement and sand) were formulated, while from the second half of the twentieth century the ready-made, "pre-mixed" plasters started to be developed.
Readymade plasters are ready-made, powder compounds consisting of binders, aggregates and additives which serve to improve both the performance and the laying of the product. Once water has been added, they are ready for use. The majority of plasters produced using ready-made mortars require the application of a plaster undercoat and a skim or finishing plaster. In the choice of the various types of material, it is of fundamental importance to ensure compatibility among the various product types. The composition of the mix may vary depending on the type of application – by hand or by machine – and according to the coats and thicknesses to be applied.
The name of our readymade plaster is Readyplast which is available in 25 kg and 40kg bags and one 40 kg bag can cover approx 15 sqft at the thickness of 15mm.
B. Block Jointing Mortar
AAC blocks is a new kind of building materials which has heat preservation, thermal insulation, sound insulation, light weight, fire prevention and so on. It is a very ideal wall material simultaneously with high heat preservation and good surrounding protection function and is only one able to satisfy 65% energy savings index and has good developing prospects. However, AAC blocks is a silicate materials with very porous structure, the porosity reaches 70~80%. If the mortar usage and job practice are unsuitable, cracking and leaking in wall, hollowing and spalling in plastering layer and other quality defects are often rise, which affects seriously the application of AAC blocks.
For jointing those blocks the mortar should have excellent workability, good water retention high cohesiveness, small shrinkage. Mortar joint thickness is only 3~5mm and much smaller than that of traditional construction (level joint about 15mm, vertical joint about 20mm), not only saving raw materials but also facilitating the manage and construction. Furthermore, Block Jointing Mortar could reach a high wall-construction quality for its excellent workability, good water retention, higher cohesiveness and high crack resistance. It avoids piling up massive raw material in job location, reduces environment influence, especially in building face-lifting and improvement project in big or medium cities. Besides, the AAC blocks needn't to sprinkle before building into wall, which can save water.
The reasons of mortar quality defects cause by traditional construction
AAC block is a porous silicate material with many internal isolated pores. The pores can be divided into "bubble pores" and "micro pores". "Bubble pores" are formed from gas-forming reaction of aluminum powder, its majority shape is like "ink bottle". "Micro pores" includes "gel pores" and " capillary pores" forming from the evaporation of water, most of them exist in wall between bubble pores. Although all these pores make AAC blocks having high porosity from 70% to 80%, most of the pores are isolated one another, interconnected pores are little, many capillary pores are separated by the bubble pores, so the capillary action is weak; as a result, the absorption of water by AAC blocks is rather slow resource and avoid sewage pollute the job site, facilitating civilized production.
The pore structure and slow absorbent property of AAC blocks lead it to have a characteristic of "water could not pour through". Therefore, relevant regulations require the AAC blocks for "twice wetting": firstly wetting AAC blocks at 1 or 2 days before construction, secondly wetting at about an hour before construction. But, it is difficult to make AAC blocks absorbing enough water in practice. If a mortar with poor water retention and bad workability is used in this case, AAC blocks will constantly absorb the water from mortar, so that the mortar cannot fully hydrate and produce enough amount of cementing products, as a result, compressive strength and bond strength of the mortar cannot reach engineering requirements and widespread cracks and leaks in wall, hollowing and spalling in plaster layer and other defects would rise.
We have eco friendly sand free block jointing mortar named Readyplast Block Bond Powder which is available in 5kg & 25 kg pack size.
C. Cementitious Tile Adhesive
From the early beginnings until the middle of last century cement based mortar p.e tilling mortar prepared by basically mixing cement, sand and water in the appropriate ratio by hand at the jobsite. The quality of the site-mixed mortar depended on the quality of the raw materials and on the correct batching ratio which could not be controlled easily. However in 1950 s two major innovations revolutionized tiling mortar technology.
The first revolution was the development of redispersible polymer powder. Polymers are added to cementitious tile adhesive in order to improve their elasticity and bonding to the substrate with the tiles. The advent of this technology enabled to produce polymer modified dry mix adhesive.
The second revolution was the improvement of the substrates. Due to modern plaster and dry construction technologies substrate got more and more even. Therefore the thick bed mortar was required to level the substrate for laying tiles were necessary.
We have 3 categories of cementitious tile adhesives
Fairfix Mortar: It is general purpose tile adhesive and conforms to IS 15477 : 2004, ANSI A118.1-1999 & Type C1 of EN 12004. It is available both grey & white colour.
Fairfix TA STD: It is medium quality tile adhesive and conforms to IS 15477 : 2004 and C2TE of ISO 13007. It is available both grey & white colour.
Fairfix TA Ultra: It is very high quality tile adhesive and conforms to IS 15477: 2004 and C2TESI of ISO 13007. It is available both grey and white colour.
D. Cementitious Underlayment
Laying a concrete floor slab or floor screed over a fairly large area lends itself to a little inaccuracy simply because of the difficulty in moving and laying an extremely wet and heavy material like concrete.
Traditional methods of leveling and repairing concrete floors are both labor intensive and require the use of screeds, trowels and sanders that are less than desirable because of site mixing, waves, cracks, etc. Self-leveling products have a variety of advantages over trowelable underlayment.
The flooring industry has always placed a strong emphasis on smooth and level concrete surfaces upon which to install resilient flooring. With today's large amount of commercial remodeling/renovation projects, the attempts to reduce costs in the new construction market and the declining availability of competent cement finishers, you need a product that help to solve most problems related to floor leveling and repair. Fortunately, modern self-leveling cements provide you with solutions that are technically sound and cost effective.

It is also suitable for substrate such as glazed tiles, terrazzo and suitably prepared timber.
Surface Preparation:
All surfaces should be sound and thoroughly cleaned before FAIRFIX TA ULTRA is applied. All traces of greases or oil must be removed with degreaser. All loose particles of mortar must be physically removed.
FAIRFIX TA ULTRA can be applied directly on concrete, cement screeds, cement, lime mortars andexisting tiles. Timber surfaces should be checked to ensure rigidity and soundness to accept the additional loading without deflection. Provision must be made to ensure adequate ventilation beneath tiled timber flooring.
FAIRFIX TA ULTRA should be mixed with water in the ratio of 3:1 by volume. Place gauging water in a clean mixing vessel. Add powder and mix with a suitable stirrer or mixer mounted on slow speed electric drill until a plastic, lumps free consistency is achieved. Hand mixing may be allowed if drill/paddle is not available. Allow to stand for 5 mins before use.
Apply thin bond coat to the substrate with the straight edge of the trowel. Then comb mortar on to the fresh bond coat with the notched edge of the trowel working in the direction. Apply only that much mortar which can cover the tiles within the open time. Open time can be checked by touching the adhesive bed with fingertip.
Position tiles in the adhesive bed and align with a slightly pushing motion, ensuring the tile back achieves full contact with the adhesive.
Remove excess adhesive with a damp cloth before material has set. Joint grouting may be commenced24 hours after tiles have been laid.

Why do we need to use tile adhesive to lay tiles, what are the benefits?
SAND-CEMENT conventional way of tile fixing
• Sand cement composes of Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) and sand. OPC is used for rendering and masonry while sand is normally river sand, which is hard to control grain size, cleanliness, and quality.
• Inconvenience to work with OPC comes in form of small bags and sand must be bought in huge quantity, which extensively occupy storage areas. OPC and sand must be relocated to another area for mixing and the process is dirty and dusty. Tiles need to be soaked in water for at least one day before being laid with sand-cement, and this is time consuming.
Tiles soaking in water
Time consuming and inefficiency
• To lay tiles with sand-cement traditional way is to apply the mixture of sand-cement in lump on tiles' back so it has to be done with one tile at a time.
Aesthetic and de-bonding problem
• Without additive to help retaining water, mixture of sand-cement dries fast and then causes the difficulty to adjust the tiles after being laid. This leads to aesthetic problem of the line of tiles and also poor bonding strength, which will be the reason of de-bonded tiles later. Laying tiles traditional way by applying sand-cement mixture in lump at tiles' back will create voids underneath the tiles and water can seep through. This creates white stain problem. Moreover, tile will be fragile at the area without any adhesive underneath.
Limitation of application
• Poor bonding strength of sand-cement mixture causes by dirt(mitti) in the sand and uncertain proportion of the mixture. Besides, there are limitations to use the mixture for laying following tiles in the following conditions.
• Low absorbent tiles
• Granito with 60 x 60 cm or greater size
• Glass mosaics – On polished substrates
• On existing tiles
• On substrates where subject to movement
• On the areas with high pressure and impact
Material wastage
Thick layer of sand-cement mixture must be used to lay tile traditionally in lump and/or to adjust the floor level, in order to gain its bonding mechanism. There will then be more loads onto structure. Moreover, there will be material wastage since the mixture dries faster than the application.
Tile adhesive is ready-mixed and specially formulated from special cement grade, selected fine sand, and additives to improve its essential properties for laying tiles. High performance tile adhesive can be used to lay tiles on existing tiles, on polished cement, on wooden substrates (with the use of primer), or on other special substrates.
Easy to use
It's very easy to use tile adhesive, it will be already ready to use after just mixing with water. Bagging product makes it convenient for transportation process, providing low dust and clean working space. Tiles are not needed to be soaked, just un-box them and lay.
Notched trowel is normally and efficiently used to apply the mixture of tile adhesive on the area of about 1 m2. Tiles are then continuously laid onto notched adhesive and quickly adjusted into the lines.
Working quality
Optimum setting time of tile adhesive allows tiles to be easily adjusted within a certain period of time. It makes tiles being laid in line and gives the aesthetic final look. Applying tile adhesive with notched trowel provides full spread on back of tiles and will reduce many problems like broken tiles esp. on the corner, water seeping, and stain or efflorescent. Full contact of the adhesive on tiles' back and substrate provides strong bonding strength and long lasting tiling work.
Variety of work
Tile adhesives are formulated according to specific applications such as to lay tiles, glass mosaics, large-size granito (up from 60 x 60 cm), to lay tiles on polished substrates, on dry wall system, on existing tiles without removing them, on external areas, parking areas, industrial areas, in swimming pools, and many more.
Economical reasons
Laying tiles by using tile adhesive with notched trowel requires less amount of material. Adhesive layer is a lot thinner than the mixture of sand-cement, and this leads to lighter load to building structure. A bag of 20 kg tile adhesive can be used to lay tiles on the average area of 4 – 5 m2. A bag of 25 kg tile adhesive can be used to lay tiles on the average of 6 – 7 m2. Area coverage depends on substrate smoothness, working tools, and skill of tilers.
Tile Adhesive- FAIRFIX MORTAR
• Fast and efficient
• Easy to use, only mix with water
• Better bonding strength
• Can be grouted within 24 hours without waiting for the moisture to evaporate
• Applicable on existing tiles, many special substrates like polished cement, dry wall system, etc.

3 Crucial Elements Within Deciding on the best AIR CONDITIONING Service provider
Therefore it is the center of summer time as well as your ac program sputters as well as passes away. Or even even worse, it is beneath absolutely no as well as your heater flickers it's final fire. Appears like it is lighting away for the cooling and heating program as well as period for any main expense.
To buy a brand new program, the majority of wise home owners might phone a number of nearby AIR CONDITIONING companies and obtain estimates depending on setting up the heater or even ac. They might possess a particular effectiveness score in your mind as well as might want to conserve whenever possible through buying the cheapest listed service provider to set up this. However the reality from the issue is actually how the effectiveness from the heating system or even air conditioning device is dependent nearly just as much upon the caliber of the actual ductwork as well as ventilation in your home since it will about the device by itself.
Whenever buying any kind of brand new heating system and/or air conditioning program, exactly what home owners require to pay attention to may be the high quality craftsmanship from the service provider. An expert AIR CONDITIONING professional might not continually be the cheapest bidder, however may conserve 1000s of dollars over time through making the most of the actual effectiveness from the total program.
An entire program might consist of a competent heater and/or air conditioner along with the ductwork which directs the environment round the house.
Here are a few points to consider to judge if the service provider is going to be providing probably the most power effective program, not only a competent device.
Fill Necessity Evaluation
Numerous companies may request the actual sq . feet dimension of your house as well as speculate in the dimension device they would like to set up, however the greatest experts may take time to perform a comprehensive fill evaluation. This particular evaluation involves collecting details about the house as well as getting into this right into a pc plan. Particulars such as space dimensions, quantity of flooring, loft room, regardless of whether areas tend to be over unheated areas for example garages or even overhangs in addition to sunlight path as well as environment information are joined to the formula. Ultimately the actual pc evaluation may suggest the right BTU dimension from the device. Not enough or even a lot of BTUs may toss from the effectiveness. A good extra-large device may destroy power cost savings equally well being an small 1.
Duct Program Evaluation
A genuine expert goes the additional action associated with doing an entire assessment from the ductwork program. They'll begin with the five-minute static stress reading through. This particular reading through can be used like a crucial analysis sign with regard to interferences in order to ventilation. In the event that air flow as well as static stress aren't calculated, the actual overall performance from the brand new AIR CONDITIONING program is only going to be considered a speculate. Models on their own could be SEER or even AFUE ranked, however this particular score is just obtained from optimum circumstances inside a laboratory. The real rankings is determined by the actual effectiveness from the air flow through the house.
Structural Factors Associated with Duct Function
The actual builder that created the house might not possess regarded as the actual ductwork to become set up. Presently there was areas exactly where spacing had been as well restricted. Remarkably, companies may quickly pull ductwork in to restricted areas to save upon price. The broke duct may slow down ventilation through 10% or even more reducing effectiveness. Additional difficulties such as free duct liners, incorrectly covered or even damaged ductwork can make additional limitations in order to ventilation leading to greater power utilization.
Extreme utilization of elbows within the ductwork can lead to reduced stress within the program, leading to the system to possess to operate tougher in order to drive atmosphere via this. However numerous companies whenever creating the house may look for to obtain the least path to the system. Whenever changing a good out-of-date program, an excellent service provider may research the actual design from the ductwork program as well as suggest any kind of changes. Occasionally enhancements may assistance much better general power effectiveness in addition to higher comfort and ease through the house.
Whenever meeting with the actual service provider, be sure to tackle that they intend to start selecting as well as setting up the best device for the house. Your investment reduced bidder attitude. With regards to any kind of substantial expense inside a house, the additional cost associated with employing an excellent service provider can be really worth this over time.

How has your wrestling experience benefited you in your life?
"I learned how to overcome the fear of failure and the value of working hard for a goal. Wrestling built more character in me than any other endeavor in my life." - Kevin Drendel ('78)
"I learned how to kick butt!!" - Daniel Teeter ('60)
"Although wrestling is a team sport it taught self reliance and individual effort are the key to team performance. Wrestling helped develop these traits in my personality, along with leadership. These were invaluable to me when I was a faculty member and wrestling coach at Gonzaga University and later in my business career." - Jon Horton ('59)
"I was not much of an athlete - Jerry Linton, if he were ranking the abilities of those on the 1957-58 squad would probably have placed me last - but in terms of life's impact, I probably benefited at least as much as anyone else. You see, I was a chubby kid, but in going out for wrestling, I lost my baby fat and remained relatively trim ever since. And then there was the sense of accomplishment: being able to climb the rope using only my hands; being able to kneel and bend backwards so that the back of my head could touch the floor." - Rodney Ross ('61)
"How to overcome challenges even when the odds are against you. Hard work and dedication produces a self-fulfulling result." - Ben Stenman ('74)
"Mr. Linton and Mr. Carlson teaching disciplines that helped me in life, the army and in business." - Dan Hamingson ('64)
"Never give up no matter how bad things get" - Paul Genske ("78)
"If there is one thing wrestling taught me is to never judge a book by its cover, to give 100% of yourself and to walk away a gentleman." - Dave Byers ('76)
"Mental toughness." - Chris Faber ('82)
"Wrestling helped me understand that I could achieve any goal I set for myself." - Michael Thurber ('94)
"Taught me the values of hard work, self-confidence and self reliance." - Dwight Varner ('95)
What are your lasting memories of wrestling at Batavia?
"The wrestling program began when I was a junior at Batavia High. Coach Linton and Carlson worked very hard to get it off the ground. It was exciting and challenging to part of this new sports program" - Jon Horton ('59)
"Scott Willis instilled in us a dolid foundation in junior high and Mike Rumple and Jim Cliffe built on that foundation to turn the program into one of the best in the state at that time. The two team memories that stand out were beating Oswego and West Aurora for the first time in their gyms!!" - Kevin Drendel ('78)
"My entire wrestling career was under the leadership of Floyd Carlson. He was an outstanding man who believed in youand encouraged each wrestler to do their best. He had a strong influence on my life" - Jack Hinterlong ('66)
"Junior high meets in the old gym and beating Oswego." - Jeff Hall ('78)
"Coaches Kelley, Rumple and Cliffe are three individuals that had a positive influence on my life." - Ben Stenman ('74)
"Great coaches and fellow wrestlers." - Jeff James ('74)
"My fondest memory is our undefeated 1979-80 season." - Mark Douglas ('81)
"The hot box room in the little gym, road trips and Mr Cornwell (George's Dad) buying meals for the whole team." - Dan Hamingson ('64)
"Great coaches and fellow wrestlers." - Jeff James ('74)
"I wasn't very good and most of the team was, but I had some wins that were not expected and I gave my all" - Paul Genske ('78)
"Our undefeated season and first conference championship" - Chris Faber ('82)
"Beating Geneva in their own gym on Senior Night." - Dwight Varner ('95)
"Very loud and loyal fans." - Brian Drendel ('81)

Airborne Mini-Modifieds – Can Doner Be Beat?
For Immediate Release AS-041610-1
South Plattsburgh, NY – Rick Doner of Ausable Forks, a.k.a. "Captain Thunder" heads up the list of nearly 30 Keeseville NAPA Auto Parts Mini-Modifieds registered for Airborne Speedway's 58th season opener Saturday, May 1.
Doner was the Mini-Modified runner-up in 2009. He won four races and had 12 top-5 finishes, but trailed champion Bill Thwaites by 16 points. Thwaites will compete in the J&S Steel Sportsman ranks this season. In 2008, Doner came within 15 points of the title as he tried to repeat as the NAPA Warrior champion, the division from which the 4-cylinder Mini-Modifieds were formed.
"I always race to win," Doner said. "I didn't quite make it to the title last year, but I had a lot more fun racing on the new track. You could come into the turns three wide. The third lane was just as fast as the bottom."
Doner's No. 95 Cavalier carries the paint scheme of Lightning McQueen the animated race car from the Disney/Pixar movie Cars. He's sponsored by Watson Glass and Gordon's Oil of Ausable Forks and supported by wife Nanette and his daughters Rikki and Charley. Two of his Mini-Modified competitors are his nephews Steven Bresette and Justin Doner. Nephew Dustin Duval, third in points in 2009, may return. Other title contenders include Chris and Bobby LaVair, Randy Martin, Jim Collins, Speedy Bresette and Tom Santillo.
The Econo Lodge 50 Syracuse Qualifier for DIRTcar Modifieds headlines the May 1 season opener.
Airborne hosts the American Canadian Tour (ACT) Spring Green 100 presented by Furniture World of Vermont and Soleil Lumber Saturday, May 8 at 5 p.m.

I was recommended to Sage Acupuncture by my team at Texas Fertility Center... they not only helped increase my fertility, but worked on other related issues like my digestion and anxiety as well as periodic headaches and allergy symptoms. - Meg H.
Sage Acupuncture is simply wonderful! I've been a client for over two years, before, during and after pregnancy. - Shannon H.
These ladies are great-- very knowledgeable, kind and gentle. I started a year ago to help with fertility, my progesterone was extremely low. Within a few months it was within normal range and I was pregnant. I then continued all throughout my pregnancy for maintenance and comfort.
- Stacia D.
Sage provided the ultimate support I needed in my fertility journey. I couldn't have asked for a better team and now my daughter just turned 1! I first came to Sage filled with pessimism, frustration, sadness, anger and ultimately because of their support felt hopeful again, empowered, healthier and happier. Other than the actual baby... working with you ladies was the best part of my fertility journey! - Anne M.


text: Aqualine Midgard® System Brochure Close Link to brochure Aqualine Midgard® System is a complete net cage system in which all components work together to protect the fish and personnel. Aqualine Midgard® System is our biggest accomplishment so far. Years of determined work to find new and improved solutions within the cage technology has paid off, and the result is the industry's first escape-proof fish farming system. We have worked long and consistently to reduce the risk of escape and to find ways of improving working conditions for the personnel. We also explore solutions that make it easier to produce farmed fish in more exposed locations. In addition to the work we do in-house, we have also worked closely with such industry leaders as Lerøy, Marine Harvest and Salmar on many other projects. In 2012 and 2013 alone, we completed 3 model tests in the SINTEF Marintek Ocean Laboratory. These were important to verify the efficiency and safety of our current solutions, not to mention new products. Several full-scale tests have also been conducted, with excellent results.

BC's recent measles outbreak has reached Vancouver Island.
On Friday morning, Island Health confirmed that two cases of measles infection have been reported on southern Vancouver Island.
In both cases, the individuals were Vancouver Island residents who contracted the disease while traveling to Vietnam and sought treatment in Victoria.

- Province announces measles immunization catch-up program in BC schools
Vaccination rates for measles have dropped by 12% in six years on Vancouver Island
"Based upon clinical management and prior immunization, we want to assure people that risk of transmission is extremely low," said Dr. Richard Stanwick, Island Health Chief Medical Health Officer.
In a press conference on Friday morning, Dr. Stanwick stated that both individuals had previously received only one dose of the MMR vaccine.
The authority advises that people who were at the following locations on the given dates and times may have been exposed to measles:
|March 6, 2019
|5:00 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.
|Royal Jubilee Hospital, Emergency Department
|March 8, 2019
|7:00 a.m. – 10:30 a.m.
|Royal Jubilee Hospital, Outpatient clinic
|March 9, 2019
|8:30 p.m. – 11:30 p.m.
|Royal Jubilee Hospital, Emergency Department
Island Health has identified 117 individuals who were in the Emergency department at the same time as the measles patient who attended the hospital.
Out of those 117, authorities will be contacting around two dozen people who were unsure of immunization status or did not have one or either MMR vaccine dose administered.
Dr. Stanwick also pointed out that two people associated with the measles patients had previously received both doses of the MMR vaccine and therefore did not contract the disease despite close contact, which speaks to the importance of immunization.
Symptoms and what to do
If you've been exposed to measles, monitor your health for the next 21 days for symptoms of the disease including fever, runny nose, sore throat, cough, diarrhea and red eyes, followed a few days later by a rash that starts on the face and spreads to the chest.
Those who have never contracted measles or have not received two doses of the MMR vaccine are at highest risk of measles, and are encouraged to get immunized as soon as possible.
Island Health also states that those who believe they now have measles should contact their local health care provider before arriving at the facility so that health care practitioners may take precautions to minimize the risk of transmission.
Contact the following lines for information about measles and treatment:
- South Island: 250-544-7676 ext. 27545
- Nanaimo/Ladysmith/Gabriola: 250-755-3388
- Courtenay/Comox Valley: 250-331-8599
- Campbell River and area: 250-850-2120
- Mt. Waddington/Port Hardy: 250-902-6079
Free vaccinations are available from your local health unit, family doctor, and many pharmacists. All Health Units in Island Health are also currently offering additional booked school age immunization appointments scheduled during regular clinic hours, after hours and Saturdays.
In the past 4 weeks Island Health has administered a total of 2,966 measles vaccinations which is more than double than the previous year. In addition, the health authority is offering to catch up all vaccines that the patient is behind on at the appointment.
Prior to this recent increase, BC Centre for Disease Control statistics for 2012 and 2018 have shown that the immunization rate in 7-year-old children on Vancouver Island has decreased by 12-13% on Vancouver Island, and by 7% in B.C. within a 6 year span.

BEIS reveals funding boost for UK-only GPS satellite
UK Space Agency allocated £92m in contingency cash following Brexit row with EU
Credit: Pixabay
A £92m allocation has been made to the UK Space Agency to develop a British satellite navigation system if the country is removed from the EU Galileo project after Brexit.
Ministers fear the UK will be excluded from Galileo, to which it has already contributed, and so be left unable to use either its military or civilian applications. Galileo is intended as an alternative to the US global positioning system.
The cash is being made available from the £3bn Brexit readiness fund, announced last year by chancellor Philip Hammond, and will finance an 18-month study of the engineering, design and development of a UK system, which would provide both civilian and encrypted military signals and be compatible with GPS.
- At a glance: What could happen in the event of a no-deal Brexit?
- How the UK Space Agency is helping Whitehall from the exosphere
- BEIS under fire for research and development investment failings
A statement issued jointly by the UK Space Agency, parent ministry the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, and the Ministry of Defence, said satellite navigation was increasingly important to the economy and any sustained disruption to it could cost £1bn a day.
Ministers want the UK to remain involved in Galileo and have been negotiating with the European Commission, but said uncertainty over the potential for the nation to be excluded from elements of it meant that contingency planning was essential.
"Without the assurance that UK industry can collaborate on an equal basis now and in the future, and without access to the necessary security-related information to rely on Galileo for military functions such as missile guidance, the UK would be obliged to end its participation in the project," the statement said.
Business secretary Greg Clark said Britain was a world leader in the space industry and had already played an important role in the development of Galileo.
"We are investing in an alternative option to Galileo to ensure our future security needs are met using the UK's world-leading space sector," he said.
"Our position on Galileo has been consistent and clear. We have repeatedly highlighted the specialist expertise we bring to the project and the risks in time delays and cost increases that the European Commission is taking by excluding UK industry.
"Britain has the skills, expertise and commitment to create our own sovereign satellite system and I am determined that we take full advantage of the opportunities this brings, backed by our modern industrial strategy."
BEIS said the MoD would be "playing a full role in support" of the project.

Diamonds and Dogs
Eagle Pharmaceuticals (EGRX) is soaring today up 19% following better than expected earnings. Total revenue came in at $40.9 million during the second quarter compared to $6.0 million in the second quarter of 2015. Sales of Ryanodex grew 81% quarter over quarter to $3.4 million. Bendeka now commands 80% of a branded market and will be an important earnings driver through at least 2019. Now that the company has clarity on Bendeka and its associated cash flows through 2019, the company is issuing a $75 million share repurchase program. This stock may keep soaring.
Another tough day for the retailers. Coach and Gap are lower following earnings, but Wayfair (W) is the dog down 16% following a bigger than expected lost. The Boston based, online home furnishings company reported second-quarter loss of $48.27 million, or 57 cents per share, compared with a loss of $19.33 million, or 23 cents per share, for the same period last year. Revenue for the quarter totaled $786.93 million, up from $491.75 million for the same period last year and exceeding the $782 million consensus. The CEO said they are achieving strong momentum across the business as Wayfair continues to take between a third and forty percent of the online dollar growth in their categories. Strong sales, but no profit, not a great long term strategy.

Have you seen this quote before?
How did we get this way? We aren't getting enough sleep, or we aren't getting enough good quality sleep.
We go to bed exhausted, sleep for 6-8 hours, and still wake up TIRED.
How can that be?
Research shows relatively moderate sleep restrictions (6 hours or less per night) can seriously impair neuro-behavioural functions in healthy adults.
You can read more about this in our blog Top 10 Ways to Improve Sleep Naturally.
Your Vancouver Chiropractors at The Powerhouse note the negative consequences of not getting enough sleep and feeling tired are:
- Less productivity at work and home
- Feeling stressed out and anxious, which leads to poor and impulsive decision making
- Paying less attention, which can be dangerous while chopping veggies or driving
- Less likely to play with your kids or do the hobbies you enjoy
- Feeling isolated, and more likely to bail on plans with friends and family
- Disruption of hormone function which keeps you feeling tired
"But I am getting enough sleep! What else is making me feel so tired?"
Great question! Let's dive in…
Are you Eating By Design?
Your body needs to be fueled with nourishing foods like vegetables, protein, and good quality fats. If you're feeling sluggish throughout the day, try to record how you are feeling after you eat.
Did that heavy, processed meal put you in a "food coma"? Write that down.
How was your energy when you chose a fresh, colourful garden salad with roasted chicken? Writing down how you feel positively reinforces healthy food choices.
Giving your body the best foods to keep you moving makes you feel energized.
Food is fuel; it should speed you up, not slow you down.
What you eat has a big impact on hormone function. When your hormones are outta-whack, it affects your sleep. You can learn how to balance your hormones in this Life By Design podcast. It also includes a link to download the Eat By Design manual.
Pro tip: Eat 30 grams of protein within 30 minutes of waking up; this will help you feel energized and ready for the day.
Need accountability to help make changes? Register for the next Eat By Design workshop.
Are you Moving By Design?
What kind of job do you have?
Is it one where you're on your feet, being physical? Or do you have a desk job, with a long commute?
How many times per week do you get outside for a walk or hike?
Is your physical activity pre-booked in your calendar?
Working out for an hour at the gym even 5 times a week is only about 3{831152ed6c31b2d70bf685057a8ccfa0a5d9aec09f3ef830c770c48681358d83} of your week. If that's the only activity you're getting, that's not enough.
We're built to move!
Get our mobility recommendations by clicking here.
When our ancestors had access to an abundance of good foods, they spent their days walking great distances to collect it.
When we nourish our bodies and get lots of physical activity, our bodies respond well to this healthy way of life.
Our ancestors' health decayed during harsh winter months when food was scarce and movements restricted. Surviving meant reducing energy levels during the winter.
In our modern day-to-day, it's easy to see how restrictive dieting and sitting for hours could be mistaken for the harsh winters of our ancestors!
Here are some simple ways to get more active in Vancouver:
- Train at the gym (we recommend these guys)
- Dragon boat down False Creek from Olympic Village
- Walk along Vancouver's seawall or through the North Van forests
- Swim at Kits pool, Third beach or in Buntzen Lake
- Ski or snowboard down Cypress Mountain
In Vancouver, there's almost no excuse not to be getting adequate movement all year round!
Are you Thinking By Design?
What goals are you working toward?
What are your next steps are for achieving them, and why they are important to you?
If you want a process for achieving your goals, remember that we all have to start somewhere!
Get inspired by awesome people and use the systems that work. Hear more by listening to Dr. Jamie's story.
If you aren't excited about your day, it's only going to drain your energy. Time to check your mindset.
Living an extraordinary life with passion and purpose isn't just a dream, it's how we're designed!
When we do this, our mind will be active and invigorated.
Think By Design uses strategies to figure out what's important to you. It's an extremely valuable tool you can use to begin crafting the most extraordinary version of yourself.
Attend the next Think By Design workshop in Vancouver by clicking here.
Pro tip: A fun (and sometimes overwhelming) way to start thinking about the future can be with a 25-year vision. Start by creating a list of things you want to achieve in the next 25 years. Once you have this vision, break it down into what you can do this year to make that happen. Once you know your 25-year vision and 1-year goals, then create a 90-day plan to begin achieving them.
You will probably be surprised by what you can do in 90 days!
- Train for the Vancouver Sun Run
- Plant a balcony vegetable garden
- Start an online business
- Go scuba diving
- Plan a road trip across the country
- Volunteer at a soup kitchen
- Start writing a novel
- Apply for Chiropractic college

Tomatoes eaten?
This is my first hanging upright (sweet baby) tomato plant. It has done absolutely great. Lots of tomatoes and yellow flowers (which after a 3 day rain most of the flowers fell off) but new ones are in bloom now. I have had no problems till now. I have not seen any rotten ones, spots, holes or disease on the tomatoes or leaves. My plant is full of tomatoes. My problem. . . . both green and red tomatoes will look good on the vine but on 6 tomatoes(not in the same spot) it is like someone cut a third of the tomato away. I pick them off and the next day there are about 6 more. I read about the cut worm but it doesn't seem to fit except for the name. I cannot find any worms, spiders, bugs or birds around. What am I missing here? Please help.

ONET-10G-EVM: 10.3125Gbps SFP+ LR リファレンス・デザイン評価ボード
Our evaluation board for the 10.3125-Gbps SFP+ LR reference design was designed to show the optical performance of the ONET1151L laser driver, the ONET8551T high-gain transimpedance amplifier (TIA) and the ONET1151P limiting amplifier.
The ONET1151L is used to drive a 1310-nm DFB laser in an LC transmit optical sub-assembly (TOSA). The ONET1151P is used to amplify the signal from the PIN-TIA LC receive optical sub-assembly (ROSA) which contains the ONET8551T TIA. An MSP430FR5728 microcontroller (MCU) is used to control the setup of the ONET1151L and ONET1151P in conjunction with a graphical user interface (GUI). The MSP430™ MCU also stores the register settings in FRAM. The TPS82693 high-efficiency MicroSiP step-down converter is used to supply 2.85 V to the ICs to decrease the module power dissipation.
This design is a functional SFP+ module used to show the performance of the transmitter and receiver. Digital diagnostics and temperature compensation of the laser driver modulation current are not included.
- Enables <1-W 10GBASE-LR SFP+ transceiver
- Decreased component power consumption (<1 W)
- Low power supply voltage (2.85 V)
- High mask margin for both receiver and transmitter
- Decreases customer evaluation time
- Includes SFP+ host board and user-friendly GUI
