The Window Fashion Pros Proudly Announces Recent Product Inclusion of the Synergy Pro Replacement Window Series to ...

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has revealed he plans to improve his struggling side with several signings during the January transfer window.

Rodgers' team are languishing in 14th place in the Premier League after winning only one of their first seven matches and the Reds boss believes their poor form is down to a lack of strength in depth.

Liverpool are short of options in attack after failing to bring in a replacement for Andy Carroll following the England striker's loan move to West Ham.

The need for reinforcements has increased after Italian forward Fabio Borini suffered a recent foot injury that left Uruguay's Luis Suarez as the only recognised fit senior striker at the club.

Rodgers had been told to reduce the squad size and wage bill when he arrived from Swansea in pre-season, but he has spoken to the club's American owners about the need to bolster his squad in January and he is hoping to get the green light to bring in some new faces.

"There are still areas we want to reinforce - and we have to reinforce as soon as we can," Rodgers told the Mail on Sunday.

"Our best team are comparable to any team in the Premier League. But we're a very thin squad and we are having to challenge on a lot of fronts.

"I've had good conversations with the owners and they understand where we are at as a team."

ROCKFORD The window is quickly closing to apply for Rockfords sole federal magistrate judge position.

The $160,080 position has been held P. Michael Mahoney since 1976. He plans to retire Dec. 31. There are 29 judges in Rockfords federal and state court systems. The jobs pay $160,000 to nearly $180,000 annually, and competition to fill a vacancy typically is steep with dozens of lawyers submitting applications.

District judges are hand-picked by the U.S. president and confirmed by the Senate, but magistrate judges are appointed by the federal courts district judges, similar to associate judges in state court.

Mahoneys vacancy is in the Western Division of the U.S. District Courts Northern District of Illinois, hearing cases in the new Stanley J. Roszkowski Courthouse in downtown Rockford. It is an eight-year appointment.

Completed applications must be submitted by 4:30 p.m. Monday.

Information on eligibility, salary and benefits and how to apply is available at ilnd.uscourts.gov. Clerk Thomas Bruton said the court will not release the names of the applicants or the number of applications it receives.

Once the application period closes, a panel of residents and lawyers of the Western Division will review the applications, make recommendations and narrow the field.

Once the panels work is complete, the judges of the Northern District of Illinois will select Mahoneys replacement. The new judge should be selected in January or February.

The Manheim Town Council last month voted unanimously to seek out a contractor to replace the vinyl siding on the town office building on State Route 167. The council authorized advertisement for bids for the siding and window trim, which they said is in dire need of replacement. Town officials said the siding and window sills are beginning to rot and separate from the building, and they are concerned water may cause further damage. Speaking during Tuesday evenings council meeting, town Supervisor John Haughton reiterated the issue with the siding is not a good situation and remains something that needs to be looked at. Since the last meeting weve learned the siding has a 50-year warranty on it, so a representative from the company that manufactured it will come and take a look at what is happening, he said. The concern is if water gets behind the siding, the building will have bigger problems in the future. Prior to authorizing advertisement for bids last month, the council discussed the possibility of replacing the window trim only, however, Councilman Peter Jaiken said that could prove more costly. If the trim is replaced now, it would have to be ripped up and replaced again when the siding is replaced or it wouldnt match, he said. If it is going to be replaced, it would make sense to replace the siding and the trim at the same time so everything is done properly and everything matches. Tuesday evening, Haughton said the town would meet with the representative from the manufacturer of the siding before making a decision on how to proceed with the repair. If the siding is under warranty like we have been told, then cost should be lower, he said. The council previously decided if the bids were determined to be too high for the current budget year, they would likely be rejected as the town does not have to accept any of the bids it receives. The specifications for the project are to be drawn up by Highway Superintendent Carl Stallman.

Update, 3.05pm: Train services on the Joondalup line may not return to normal until Friday after a power line crashed onto a city bound train this morning, according to Transport Minister Troy Buswell.

Passengers endured a terrifying few minutes when a downed power line hit the train, slamming against a window and sending people ducking for cover as they feared the windows could smash.

The power line and supporting poles were ripped out as the Joondalup line train continued along the track for about a kilometre after becoming tangled in the line.

Debris showered vehicles travelling along the freeway.

Train transport was in chaos with hundreds of people stranded at stations. The interruptions have extended into this afternoon with replacement buses used to clear the backlog.

Passengers were initially stranded on the disabled train this morning.

Do you have pictures from this morning? Send them in

Trains have been stopped between Whitfords and Leederville and Mr Buswell said the trains may not return to normal until Friday.

Mr Buswell described the incident as significant and said it had caused damage to 1.5km of overhead wire and to some rail infrastructure.

He said all rail crews were working to repair the line and a full investigation was underway to find the cause.

Experts at Simonton Windows offer timely tips for homeowners to enhance the energy efficiency of their windows and doors during Octobers National Energy Awareness Month.

Columbus, OH (PRWEB) October 02, 2012

Virtually every building component in a home needs to be replaced at some point, and windows are no exception, says Gary Pember of Simonton Windows. Wed like to think that our roof, siding and windows will last forever, but they wont.

Marking your calendar each October to routinely check your windows and patio doors helps ensure they are performing the way they were designed to perform. These checks also help determine when its time to consider a window replacement project that can offer you long-term energy savingsespecially if you live in an older home.

Pember recommends the following do-it-yourself tips to gain an initial impression of how well your current windows and patio doors are functioning:

Tip #1 - Examine the inside of your windows and patio doors for hot and cold drafty spots (or drafty areas). This indicates air infiltration which can lead to reduced energy efficiency.

Tip #2 - Check every window and door to make sure there is adequate weatherstripping and caulking around the units. This helps eliminate air infiltration and ensure a weather tight, secure seal.

Tip #3 Look for burnt out or faded areas on your furnishings and carpeting. This could indicate harmful, damaging UV rays are entering your home through your windows or doors. You may want to consider replacement with more energy efficient units containing Low E coatings on the glass.

Tip #4 If your windows no longer open or close easily--or if they need to be propped open--it could mean key components within the units are damaged or need adjustment. It could also mean the unit needs to be replaced entirely.

Tip #5 Check the fit of your current windows or patio doors by having someone stand outside the units at night. With a small flashlight, stand inside and travel around the edge of the units. If the person outside sees light coming through the edges, this indicates a poor installation and is resulting in energy loss.
