If it needs to be done, Lady Bug'z Lifestyle Assistant can do it.
"Anything that you need, we'll do," says Anna Erickson, who started Lady Bug'z with partner Mike Alioto two years ago.
The initial aim of the business was to help local seniors be able to live independently longer, as well as make the transition into a care home.
"We try to keep our seniors in our community living independently," Erickson says.
From care aides and housekeeping to organization, help with running errands or simple companionship, Lady Bug'z Lifestyle Assistant offers a variety of services aimed at helping seniors stay comfortable and safe at home as long as possible.
The help is not just for seniors, however, as the couple says Lady Bug'z services are available to anyone who needs a hand.
In addition to care aides, housekeeping and organization, and personal assistant services, Lady Bug'z offers yard work and handyman services, home check while you're away and even help with season preparations, such as decorating for major holidays. It can also take care of vacation and party planning, gardening and has an arsenal of experts in everything from plumbing to a notary public available.
Erickson says she came up with the idea for the business while working at The Waterford seniors' facility in Tsawwassen.
"The thing that I heard the most was how difficult it was for some seniors to live on their own and how hard it was to transition."

Lady Bug'z helps seniors maintain independence
Leon Stackhouse, of Pen Argyl, has owned this rare 1957 Chevy Handyman station wagon for about two years.
Stackhouse has wanted a Handyman ever since he saw one for sale at a Pen Argyl gas station while a senior at Bangor Area High School in 1970. He told a high school friend he was going to see about buying the Handyman to convert for the drag strip.
"Turns out his uncle ran the Gulf station near Weona Park. That's how he beat me to it," Stackhouse says. "He paid $250 for it. I bought a '58 Chevy convertible instead."
Described as the "workingman's Nomad" because of its popularity among carpenters, plumbers and other tradesmen, the Handyman came standard with a six-cylinder motor and three-speed manual transmission with column-mounted shift.
"Everybody thinks it's a Nomad," Stackhouse says. "At car shows Nomads are a dime a dozen, but you never see a Handyman."
Stackhouse has worked on cars for about 40 years. He wasted no time in upgrading the classic Handyman, dropping in a 305-cubic-inch Chevy V-8 from a 1988 Camaro and a Muncie four-speed transmission with floor-mounted shifter.
"The paint and chrome was already done," Stackhouse says. "I put in new windows, total interior, power steering and brakes. I pretty much disassembled it and put it back together."
The color is a two-tone 2001 Lincoln metallic tan and pearl that closely matches the colors of the day. The classic Cragar chrome wheels add to the car's 1960s ambience.
Stackhouse and his wife, Doris, are members of the Wanderers Car Club and can be seen with the Handyman at area car shows and cruises.
Stackhouse has owned and restored more than 20 classic cars over the years and is still going strong so much so that he recently installed a gas-station lift in his garage.

INDIA: Two more sanitation workers die cleaning sewer
ISSUES: Right to food; inhuman and degrading treatment; hunger, starvation, corruption; impunity; rule of law, Right to life and livelihood; right to rehabilitation and compensation
Dear friends,
The Asian Human Rights Commission (AHRC) has learnt about the death of two sanitation workers in Hyderabad. They have died while cleaning a gutter, a practice outlawed by the Supreme Court of India. These deaths follow others one sanitation worker in Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, and three in Gujarat that have taken place in the wake of the historic 29th March Supreme Court verdict criminalizing the practice of manual cleaning of human excreta.
CASE NARRATIVE:
The AHRC has learnt about the death of two sanitation workers, Mr. Beemulu, 23 years, and Mr. Narayana, 53 years. They died inside a drain in Rajendra Nagar, Hyderabad, this Saturday. Mr. Beemulu was trapped first. When Mr. Narayana entered the drain to help him and got trapped too. Media reports state that the workers were cleaning an 18-foot deep drain; they were trapped inside and suffocated to death due to the lack of oxygen. The owners of Imperial Residency apartments employed the two men to cleaning their sewer; one of the sewage lines had overflowed due to a blocked manhole. Media reports also note that the residents were compelled to employ private manual scavengers. Repeated complaints to the municipal authorities regarding the sewage problem remained unanswered.
The deaths occurred despite the practice of manual cleaning of human excreta, in any form and in any place, having been outlawed both by the Indian parliament and the Supreme Court of India. On 27 March 2014, the Supreme Court has imposed a categorical ban on anyone entering, or being forced to enter, manholes, unless there is an emergency. The Court clarified that even in a case of emergency, entering a drain or manhole can only be permitted with the written approval of a Chief Executive Officer and with all protective gears in place.
The Court ordered all state governments to strictly enforce the Prohibition of Employment as Manual Scavengers and their Rehabilitation Act, 2013, and to take immediate measures to eradicate manual scavenging. The verdict has also put command responsibility on the Chief Executive Officer (or equivalent post) of the locality and instituted a compensation of Rupees 10 lakhs in the case of death due to such a practice.
The death of Mr. Beemulu and Mr. Narayanan, however, exposes the criminal disdain authorities have even for the orders of the higher judiciary. Forget about being permitted or not in writing by the chief executive officer, the deceased sanitation workers were not even employed by municipal authorities and were working for private citizens. Unfortunately, this situation is not peculiar to Hyderabad or the state of Andhra Pradesh; such deaths keep occurring across the country. Though data on such deaths is hard to come by, both because of such private employment and authorities quest to hush up the matter, a conservative estimate by dalit rights activist S. Anand puts the toll at 22,237 deaths a year across India, with around 700 deaths occurring inside manholes.
These deaths have followed the deaths of a manual scavenger, Mr. Pavan, in Varanasi and three others in Gujarat; all of them have taken place after the Supreme Court verdict. In case of the death of Mr. Pavan, the authorities even feigned ignorance about who employed the man to do the job. The AHRC condemns the continuation of such deaths and holds the authorities responsible. The AHRC demands compensation for the families of the deceased workers and also the prosecution of the Chief Executive Officers administering areas where the deaths occurred.

INDIA: Two more sanitation workers die cleaning sewer
Lenoir City, TN (PRWEB) June 05, 2014
Window Genie announces the grand opening of its newest location in SW Knoxville on Monday, June 9th. Debbie Lunsford is the owner/operator. Window Genie is a nationally ranked home service franchise that specializes in window cleaning, window tinting, pressure washing, gutter cleaning and more. Window Genie of SW Knoxville will service Lenoir City, Loudon, Louisville, Karns, Concord, Farragut and surrounding communities.
Before joining the Window Genie team, Debbie Lunsford spent 14 years as an investigator, doing background checks for federal security clearances. This past year as work slowed down, Lunsford was among many that were laid off. I typically take things pretty well and was able to see the positive in this situation, Lunsford said. I believe everything happens for a reason and I simply looked at it as an opportunity to pursue my next venture. I had always thought Id be a business owner one day, but for many years I had a job with great benefits that I enjoyed very much. This past January, when I was laid off, I decided to seriously look into business ownership.
Lunsford was a frequent listener of a Chattanooga radio program, Lets Talk Money. Franchise coach with The Entrepreneurs Source, Bruce Krebs, was a frequent guest on the show. Lunsford said, I enjoyed what he had to say and when I was laid off, I felt it was time to reach out and see if he could help steer me in the right direction. I didnt know what to expect but through conversations where we analyzed my goals, interests, strengths and weaknesses, Bruce presented six franchises he felt I could excel with and enjoy. After researching each opportunity, Lunsford was able to narrow her choices down to two franchises, Window Genie and one other.
On making her decision, Lunsford said, Talking to existing Window Genie franchise owners really helped me make my decision. I spoke to some whove been in business over 10 years, some who just bought a business last year. Every conversation left me feeling re-assured that I was headed in the right direction; every franchisee was incredibly honest about their experience and were ultimately happy running the business because they felt that no matter what issues theyve run into along the way, the corporate support staff was always there to guide and coach them back on track. I am realistic and know that opening a business is not going to be easy or smooth sailing, but Im up for the challenge and trust the support and training Ive received and will continue to receive along the way.
Lunsford officially opens for business on Monday, June 9th and will service the surrounding SW Knoxville communities of Lenoir City, Loudon, Lousiville, Karns, Concord, Farragut and more. To learn more about Window Genie of SW Knoxville or for a free estimate, call Debbie Lunsford at (865) 309-9439 or email her at dlunsford(at)windowgenie(dot)com.

How to Clean Your Gutters the Right Way
Leaf Guard, 1239 Aerowood Drive, Mississauga, ON 905-206-9916
If you are a homeowner, we are willing to bet that somewhere on your house there is an eavestrough. An eavestrough that always seems to need cleaning, even though it feels like you just cleaned it!
Gutter Depot is here to assure you, although eavestrough maintenance seems like another tireless chore, it is absolutely vital to the wellbeing of your home!
An eavestrough will collect the rainwater pouring down your roof and redirect it away from your home. However, standard eavestroughs also collect leaves, small branches and other dirt, causing them to block during rainstorms. If the eavestrough remains clogged, water damage can take place through leaks in the roof and flooding through the walls and foundation. It can even split the pipes!
To keep up with your eavestrough maintenance, we recommend a scheduled cleaning 2-3 times a year, preferably mid-Spring (May-June) and mid-Fall (October-November). Consider waiting until most of the leaves have fallen, but dont wait too long or you might get caught with an early snowfall!
If you are thinking of cleaning out your gutters, remember this important rule: ladder safety! When cleaning gutters it is a good idea to attach either a bucket to your ladder or a trash bag to collect the leaves and other debris from the gutters. Be prepared, cleaning out gutters can be a very messy job!
This is why Gutter Depot recommends LeafGuards patented system. It allows rain to travel down and around its rounded hood and into the eavestrough, while keeping leaves and dirt out! LeafGuards patented system specializes in delivering a hassle and repair free peace of mind investment all with a no-clog guarantee for as long as you own the house.
Gutter Depots LeafGuard Eavestroughs are the most effective eavestrough solution for your home. They are custom fit, resilient, and are available in a wide range of colours.
To learn more about how Gutter Depot can assist with your eavestrough needs, call us toll free at 1 (888) 909-1665 or visit our website. We can also be found on Facebook and Twitter.
