Siding Pros Of Idaho Announces Full Manufacturer and Installation Warranty for Boise Siding

With 15 years award-winning craftsmanship and experience in home exterior services, Siding Pros Of Idaho has announced full manufacturer and installation warranty for Boise siding. They are fully licensed, bonded and insured for installing siding correctly and on time. Besides, they are one of the few preferred James Hardie installers in the Treasure Valley. James Hardie provides innovative siding products that are designed to last for up to 50 years against cracking, rotting, hail damage, termites and many other possible problems.

“We specialize in installing James Hardie and are also qualified to install any Siding Boise you choose. However, we highly recommend James Hardie siding products because of its durability, protection, life time value and recognition. Your siding will be backed by full manufacturers’ warranties in addition to our installation warranty. Moreover, our handpicked installers are drug-free and have had thorough background checks”, says a spokesperson for Siding Pros Of Idaho.

Siding is becoming more popular among the homeowners due to its several benefits. Generally, siding is performed to protect the home from structural damage that might be caused due to pests such as termites and mold. However, recent studies clearly portray that pests not only affect the structural beauty of the home, but will also cause health hazards especially to seniors and children. Therefore, it’s important to maintain the health of both home and family members. But, there is no use in blindly hiring a siding firm since low quality siding products and installation might not be able to secure your home and family members. Ultimately, you might have to regret for the decision you made.

So, make a thorough analyze regarding the siding company’s experience, reputation, certification and products used. Nowadays, James Hardie siding products are used by most of the reputed Boise siding firms because of the standard quality of its siding products. Furthermore, James Hardie is also recognized by media and industry leaders alike for its role in creating better places to live.

“In addition to Siding Boise, we also offer home exterior services such as Roofing, Windows/Doors, and Exterior Painting. We can properly diagnose your home exterior problems and help you identify the best solution for you”, adds the spokesperson.

Mike Kergosien, on the Housing and Job Market in Texas

Texas was among the last states in the United States to be affected by recession, and certainly the first to bounce back. In fact, Texas stands in the top ten lists of the best places for business and careers, conducted by Forbes. Texas has indeed been adding jobs faster when compared to other cities in the country. But what’s the future of the Texas housing market? Mike Kergosien speaks about the housing market in Texas.

Even as several states became victim to the housing bubble, Texas remained largely unscathed. The conservative approach of the state that restricted mortgage borrowing to 80 per cent of the appraised value has a large role to play in this.

For some time now, Texas has been in the centre of a long term process of an employment shift. Low cost of wages, relatively cheaper housing and low cost of living in Texas have been a contributory factor. This has also resulted in Texas being voted as the preferred city for relocation. Those who relocate do not mind that the wages that they earn are far less than the wages they earn elsewhere, because houses here are far more affordable than they are throughout the country.

The state’s oil reserves have also played a major part in the steady employment rates. A few years ago, a barrel of oil was sold for $25. Over the last two years oil prices have risen and stayed steady at over $80 a barrel. Technological breakthrough has resulted in the opening up of several oil and gas fields all over the state.

Another factor that has played to the advantage of the state is exports. Trade between the United States and Mexico has grown up with factories in El Paso working overnight to keep up with demands.

Texas sits wise largely because of its lessons learnt from the recession it experienced in the late 1980’s. Governors who followed this period worked with business leaders to diversify the economy. The recession also resulted in strict legislation to control the mortgage market.

About Mike Kergosien: Director of Operations at the American Home Free Mortgage has in-depth knowledge about the housing market in Texas.

Career Centre saves G4S £1m in first year

International security solutions firm G4S is tracking savings of more than £1m on UK recruitment since launching its Global Career Centre in November last year.

Head of resourcing Colin Minto told Recruiter that the aim was to move to a direct resourcing model in the “truest” sense of the word. “That is empowering our frontline supervisors, managers and HR teams to directly recruit themselves,” he says.

“Technology is the driving force of the modern resourcing strategy and the most important element is the corporate career centre.”

Following the launch of the Global Career Centre, G4S is rolling out local versions to its UK operating businesses, as well as in Australia and New Zealand, Africa and the Netherlands.

“The idea is to capture local traffic, local Google and local web content and aggregate all of it back to the Global Career said Minto. The centre includes a multi-lingual job board in 30 languages and a single global searchable database for all G4S hiring managers. G4S has more than 635,000 employees and is one of the world’s biggest private-sector employers, operating in 125 countries.

The system integrates multiple applicant tracking systems (ATS) and an online corporate career centre that provides all of the facilities necessary to take a candidate from attraction through to appointment. The backbone of the system is the talent management platform TribePad, developed by technology company Talent On View, which sits between an ATS and a corporate website.

It allows organisations to build their own social networks and talent communities and allows a range of apps to be run from it, including job posting to all available channels including social media, semantic searching to help match candidates with jobs, and CV parsing to create candidate profiles. It also features a community jobseeker area in which candidates can access video, learning content, resources and forums.

Minto also worked with specialist online recruitment providers Kaonix, Monster TMS and RecruitActive in developing the career centre.

Talent on View CEO Lisa Scales says the company is in talks with global businesses from the pharmaceutical, FMCG, retail and media industries regarding TribePad.

“They are all looking to consolidate their social recruiting activities while underpinning their direct hiring strategy and making cost efficiencies,” she said.

OILPRO Launches Procurement Services In Nigeria

OILPRO Nigeria is a company that specialises in procurement of oilfield equipment for the upstream oil and gas industry in Nigeria in particular and West African Sub – region.

OILPRO creates value for our clients by reducing the time it takes to source a product to the barest minimum. Without OILPRO, the client will have a procurement officer search out the product, make contact with the manufacturer or distributor, arrange to visit the manufacturer in the case of a big ticket item, and proceed with payment and shipping plans. With OILPRO, all our client has to do is send us a list of products and specifications and we will search our extensive database to find out the manufacturer or distributor who can supply the product at the most competitive price. Once we locate the manufacturer, we arrange for the product to be shipped to our client and facilitate payment. This process will help our client streamline their operations by outsourcing the procurement department to us, they will save money by not having a procurement department, and they will also get their product shipped to them faster because of OILPRO’s superior mobility and network infrastructure.

Speaking recently at Oilfield Equipment Supplier private forum in London, United Kingdom, Peter Eledan, CEO of OilPro said: "We are delighted to introduce innovative ways on how Oil and Gas procurement services are offered and changing the way big and small companies do business in Nigeria and West African Sub region." We differentiate ourselves through technical expertise, customer focus, on-time delivery and competitive pricing.

OILPRO Procurement Service aims to help clients reduce 10-40% on their past spend, create immediate and long-term savings, reduce time-to-contract, drive contract compliance and streamline employee ordering and control across the organisation.

OILPRO is your supply chain solution - we consolidate multi-vendor orders saving our customers time, money and paperwork. For more information about our products and services, visit http://www.oil-pro.com

Website Keeps Diabetes Patients On Track

Data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) “2011 National Diabetes Fact Sheet” puts the number of adults and children with diabetes in the U.S. at an astounding 25.8 million, with another 79 million teetering on the edge of the disease having a precursor condition called “prediabetes”. That is one of every three Americans. Diabetes and prediabetes are defined by a flaw in the body’s natural capacity to utilize its primary source of fuel-- the sugar, glucose-- resulting in excessive levels circulating in the bloodstream. High blood glucose levels contribute to serious “complications” of diabetes including heart attack and stroke, kidney failure, severe infections and limb amputation, vision loss and blindness, digestive and sexual dysfunction, and premature death.

“Diabetes doesn’t have to equal poor health though”, says Toby Smithson, Registered Dietitian (RD), Certified Diabetes Educator (CDE), and founder of DiabetesEveryDay.com. “Diabetes can be a manageable condition, but challenging responsibilities fall squarely on the patient. It’s called self-management.” Smithson would certainly know the challenges intimately, having managed her own diabetes successfully for more than 40 years with no hint yet of those insidious “complications”.

Self-management means acting personally to keep blood sugar levels as close to normal as possible with a combination of regular medical care, medication (sometimes insulin injections), frequent monitoring of blood sugar levels, eating a healthy diet with particular attention to carbohydrates, and getting regular physical activity. Following through with these personal responsibilities consistently clearly works to preserve health, but it’s estimated less than 10% of people with diabetes meet recommended goals for their ABC’s…A1C (effective blood sugar control), Blood pressure and Cholesterol.

So how can people successfully manage their diabetes? “Controlled studies almost always show that ‘intensive lifestyle intervention’ brings marked improvements in these key health indicators, greatly reducing the risks of diabetes complications”, says Smithson. “But in our real world a person with diabetes may go for months between visits with physicians or dietitians or educators. The lifestyle can be complicated, time consuming, frustrating, and lacking in short term positive feedback, so many simply lose their daily connection with diabetes management against life’s other demands.”

She explains, “I founded DiabetesEveryDay.com to provide accurate information about diabetes and diabetes management, of course. But more importantly, I want to keep people with diabetes interested in, and connected to, this crucial part of their life. It’s easy for them to lose focus, so we were determined to create something interesting and always changing that will keep people who are self-managing diabetes engaged with us, and therefore engaged with improving their own self-care.”

Smithson explains that DiabetesEveryDay has taken her own patients’ pleas to heart – “don’t give me more stuff to read”, “just tell me what to eat” – by providing unique resources such as original and practical “how to” video clips, weekly menu recommendations (complete with shopping lists), and practical lifestyle tips that Smithson herself uses every day to maintain her own health. “We are dedicated to providing something completely different that encourages and motivates people with diabetes to take control- other resources just aren’t working for too many.”

“Our subscribers can develop a personal connection with me through the video medium, and we can relate ‘face-to-face’. Only someone else doing this daily can really know the struggles, and I never promise I can make it easy. But, I’m absolutely convinced that DiabetesEveryDay can help people managing this disease become comfortable and confident with this overwhelming personal responsibility. A consistent focus is necessary, and the stakes are so high.”

Toby Smithson is a Registered Dietitian and spokesperson for the American Dietetic Association, a Certified Diabetes Educator, and a “diabetes lifestyle expert”.
