The Steelville Therapy Center at Gibbs Care Center is now complete. The 6,000 square foot wing provides private rooms, a beautiful new sunroom and a whirlpool bath and shower area in addition to a new lounge at the end of the east wing for residents to enjoy. An Open House will be held on Sunday, February 19 from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Ribbon cutting ceremonies will take place at 1:30 p.m. and tours of the new wing will be offered.

    The new $1.5 million wing, constructed between the north and east wings of the center, provides the opportunity to receive comprehensive short-term rehabilitation services close to home. It includes state-of-the-art equipment and access to skilled professional therapists for those in need.
    The rehabilitation wing extends northeast of the existing nurse’s station and has 10 private rooms for those who need shorter term care and therapy services to help them recover from an injury or illness.
    In addition to the lounge and sunroom, an outdoor courtyard is featured between the new wing and the original north wing. The new “Volenetz Garden” courtyard with fountain is touted as a “must see,” especially in the spring, summer and fall.
    Gibbs Care Center was opened in 1977 after the Clarence and Geraldine Gibbs estate and the Steelville Presbyterian Church donated the initial funds toward the construction of a community nursing home. In 1987, the Gibbs Manor Residential Care Facility opened. The center’s facilities were expanded and renovated in 2003. The center has been assisted through the years with donations from citizens, churches and civic organizations, including the establishment of the Evelyn and Bill Volenetz Endowment Foundation in 2002 and the donation of funds by Kathryn Morgan in memory of her mother, Florence Myers, in 2006. Since the center was opened, it has served over 1,300 residents and their families.
    Work on the new wing was assisted through the “Help Us Grow!” Campaign, initiated just before construction began. Community support has helped in furnishing the new wing and renovating other portions of the existing facility. The project was financed by USDA Rural Development.

25-09-2011 13:49 Lalibela located in Northern Ethiopia is the site of 11 churches that have been cut entirely out of a single block of stone from top down into the ground. Lalibela was not built or constructed, but literally cut from stone. This amazing building technique is considered by many to be a mystery. This segment is from the "Ancient Aliens" season 3 episode 3 originally aired on the History channel and there was more than what I provide here. This is the only monolithic site known to be related directly to Christianity. In addition to the pure mystery surrounding these stone structures, there are also myths suggesting that Lalibela was also once used as a shield to protect the Ark of the Covenant.

09-01-2012 10:34 The economy of scale. Don't worry, as the economy collapses into anarchy under the Republican policy, the Republicans, like Fineswine, will suddenly become democrats with a small "d". When Carter was Prez. he put solar cells on the White House. When Reagan came into office, he ripped the Solar cells off the House and threw solar into the dust bin of history. The Chinese, familiar with recycling, picked up the solar cell industry and decided to install them on all their new houses. China decided 10 years ago that solar energy was a form of nuclear power, fusion, at the only safe distance from our environment, 93000000 million miles away. So to ban nukes, dirty coal and oil, China decided to make sun power their national power. Let the sun shine in. Sing the song each day. China is building a million new solar powered apartment buildings a year. The national bird of China is the crane, the construction crane. China now produces more high quality PV solar cells than any nation. In 5 more years China was have 50% of its power needs supplied by solar power. You may scoff, but by 2020, you will be crying, "Why didn't someone tell me that solar power is better, cheaper and FREE!" Stop crying. Start building solar BERM housing today. We need to buy solar cells from China and make them into solar powered houses to break our addiction to OIL and nukes. This will jump start the California housing economy. All non solar housing must be scrapped. This is the dawning of the age of Solar ...

30-01-2012 17:58 YoChicago.com Jonathan Jackson is a Technical Engineer with Plumbers Local 130 and a licensed surveyor. When I stopped to chat with him at K2 at K Station, a 34-story apartment tower under construction in the Fulton River District, he was checking to ensure that nothing outside of the site was moving. Moving? As Jonathan explains in the video, large-scale construction can cause settling and movement of other structures, utility lines, etc. outside of the site itself.
