Home Builder Developer - Interior Renovation and Design

Library of Things is on a mission to make borrowing better than buying. Set up by 3 close friends, the Library of Things started life in Norwood Library where neighbours were invited to borrow items instead of buying new.

Co-Founder Rebecca Trevalyan says We were living in Brixton when we started Library of Things, and now we have our office here too so were really excited to finally be bringing a version of the service to the neighbourhood!

Library of Things aim to help people to save money and reduce waste by affordably lending out useful Things.During the lockdown Library of Things started offering a home delivery service which has been popular with Crystal Palace residents, who have been borrowing Things to do DIY, cleaning, gardening and crafts to stay active during the pandemic.

Its been a really tough few months for lots of people. Our borrowers in Crystal Palace toldus that they needed tools for DIY projects, for cleaning and for entertaining families whilst spending more time than usual at home so we feel its more important than ever that good quality Things are made accessible says Rebecca.

The extension of the Things on Wheels service to include Brixton has been part-funded by a post-COVID-19 recovery grant from Lambeth Council. Brixton residents will be able to reserve and borrow items from mid-September.

Rebecca continues Were still looking for a permanent community hub home for Library of Things in Brixton, but in the meantime, people can get items like drills, carpet cleaners, sewing machines and strimmers delivered to their door for a few pounds per day.

If you want to borrow quality power tools, sewing machines, projectors, carpet cleaners and more for just a few pounds per day then Library of Things is the answer to affordable, planet friendly tools.

The Library of Things Things on Wheels home delivery in Brixton can be booked online soon, with deliveries in the Brixton shared Electric Van starting in a few weeks. The item catalogue is online and you can vote on the items you wish to borrow to be added to the collection.

Stay up to date with Library of Things on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn.

Prestige Planner: Best Things to Do This Week (September 7 13) - Prestige Online

Vietnamese carmaker VinFast has released pricing and additional details for its limited-run President SUV, which is listed at 4.6 billion VND, or around USD198k (RM822,096). Based on the prior VinFast LUX SA2.0, the President is capped at 500 units, and the first 100 customers to place their orders will get a special price of 3.8 billion VND, or approximately USD164,000 (RM680,928), according to the company.

While the SA2.0 is powered by a 2.0 litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine, the President packs something altogether more aspirational, namely a 6.2 litre V8 engine that produces 420 hp and 624 Nm of torque. This is mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission and full-time 4WD, and can propel the President along the 0-100 km/h acceleration benchmark in 6.8 seconds, and to a top speed of nearly 300 km/h, VinFast claims.

Keeping the luxury SUVs performance in check is a host of safety systems including brake assist, ABS, EBD, stability control, traction control, hill descent control, hill start assist and roll-over mitigation, while further driver assistance includes blind spot warning, lane departure warning and a 360-degree camera system. Six airbags round up the passive safety kit list.

The President wears a rather sporty exterior, with a bonnet scoop near the front of the panel, while the front bumper features large air intakes. Customers can specify the colour of the logo, roof rails, running boards, door exterior garnish and front and rear bumper trim pieces from a choice of gold, copper bronze, gunmetal or silver.

The President is claimed to offer exceptional space from a segment-leading wheelbase of 3,133 mm, which isnt far-fetched this measure is longer than that of the BMW X7, which sports a wheelbase of 3,105 mm. Space for occupants is a primary consideration here, as VinFast notes that the President has been given wide door openings and a second row of seats that has been enlarged to its maximum.

The roof gets large, UV-resistant panoramic glass sections, and the running boards have been designed to offer easier access up into the cabin, says VinFast. Meanwhile, armrests in the second row include cup holders, and the interior also features a wireless device charging pad and USB connectivity.

Premium Nappa leather is used for seat upholstery throughout the Presidents cabin, and can include a new Cotton Beige leather colour option, as well as the choice of made-in-Italy wood veneer. As natural woods are used, each example of wood trim will have its own distinct grain, and therefore no two units of the President will be exactly alike, thus ensuring the exclusivity of each car.

Interior equipment in the President also includes a central seven-inch multi-function display within the drivers instrumentation panel, while infotainment is handled by a 12.3-inch screen, while audio is handled by a high-end 13-speaker setup, according to the company.

The exterior colour palette for the VinFast President includes Sunset (orange), Deep Ocean (dark green), Gun Metal, Competition Red and Purple Rain. Additionally, customers for each of the 500 units exclusively for the Vietnamese market can select from a further 18 customised colours according to their preferences, personalities and feng shui requirements, says VinFast.

The President SUV is on display at showrooms and dealers in Vietnam, and customers can place orders for the vehicle from today.

Fall is a great time to tackle projects around the house. The weather each fall allows homeowners to make improvements to their homes exteriors without worrying about extreme heat or cold, while interior projects like painting are made easier because homeowners can open the windows to allow for proper ventilation.

Fall also marks a great time to prepare for upcoming projects that can make winter work that much easier. For example, fall is a great time to take stock of your gutters so you can address any issues before leaves begin to fall or the first snowstorm touches down. Compromised gutters can contribute to water issues in basements and adversely affect a homes foundation if not addressed immediately, so it behooves homeowners to learn the signs that gutters are in need of repair or replacement.

Gutters hanging off the home: Gutters were once installed predominantly with spikes. However, many industry professionals now install gutters with hanger brackets. Why the change? Spikes loosen over time, leading to the gutters hanging off the home. That can contribute to serious issues if left untreated. Gutters hanging off the home need not necessarily be replaced, but rather secured to the home, ideally with hanger brackets instead of spikes. Brackets hook into the front of the gutter and are then screwed into the fascia of a home. A professional who specializes in gutter repair can perform this task relatively quickly, and its an inexpensive yet highly effective solution.

Gutter separation: Gutters that are no longer fastened together can leak and contribute to issues that affect the homes foundation, siding and appearance. Clogs and the accumulation of debris can cause gutters to separate because they are not designed to hold too much weight. Replacement of separated gutters may or may not be necessary depending on how big the problem is and the condition of the existing gutters. If replacement is not necessary, separated gutters may be remedied by securing the joints, another relatively simple and inexpensive fix.

Peeling exterior paint: Paint that appears to be peeling off of your home may indicate that water is seeping over the edge of the gutter closest to your home. When that happens, water is coming down the side of the house, causing the paint to peel. In such instances, replacing the gutters is often necessary.

Basement flooding: Not all signs of deteriorating gutters are outside a home. Many a homeowner has been flummoxed by flooding in their basements, and such flooding can be caused by aging, ineffective gutters. Thats because deteriorating gutters sometimes allow water to leak near the foundation of a home, contributing to basement flooding.

Fall is an ideal time to inspect gutters and have any issues fixed before leaves begin to fall or harsh winter weather arrives.

The Illinois Department of Public Health reported 1,403 new confirmed cases of COVID-19 and five additional deaths Sunday, as several regions saw a significant drop in positivity rate.

The state received the results of 46,496 COVID-19 tests in the 24 hours leading up to Sunday afternoon. The state's seven-day rolling positivity rate went down to 4.04%.

Illinois now has seen 249,580 total cases of the virus and 8,171 people have died. The state has conducted a total of 4,418,372 tests since the start of the pandemic.

As of late Saturday, Illinois had 1,504 COVID-19 patients in the hospital. Of those, 356 were in intensive care units, and 134 were on ventilators.

Regional update: According to aJuly 15 updateto Gov. JB Pritzker's COVID-19 response plan, the state will be tracking public health metrics in a slightly different way to monitor any potential resurgences of COVID-19. Additional restrictions can be placed on any of the state's 11 health regions if the region sustains an increase in its average positivity rate for seven days out of a 10-day period.

A region also may become more restrictive if there is a seven-day increase in hospital admissions for COVID-19-related illness or a reduction in hospital medical/surgical beds or ICU capacity below 20%. If a region reports three consecutive days with more than an 8% average positivity rate, additional infection mitigation will be considered through atiered system of restriction guidelinesoffered by the IDPH.

The North Suburban region (McHenry and Lake counties) has seen four days of positivity increases and three days of hospital admission increases. The region's positivity rate decreased to 5.4%, a decrease of 0.6 percentage points in one day. Currently, 41% and 57% of medical/surgical beds and ICU beds are available, respectively.

The West Suburban region (DuPage and Kane counties) has seen four days of positivity increases and two days of hospital admission increases. The region's positivity rate decreased to 5.3%, a single-day decrease of 0.6 percentage points. Currently, 32% of medical/surgical beds and 47% of ICU beds are available.

The South Suburban region (Will and Kankakee counties) has seen three days of positivity increases and four days of hospital admission increases.The region's positivity rate decreased to 7.6%, a decrease of 1.1 percentage points in a single day.

Additional mitigation measures from the IDPH have been placed on the region, and the region has gotten down below 8%. If it can hold below 8%, it will avoid additional mitigations. To return to the standard Phase 4 restrictions, the region will need to maintain an average positivity rate of less than or equal to 6.5% over a 14-day period. Currently, 31% of the region's medical/surgical beds and 30% of its ICU beds are available.

The North region (Boone, Carroll, DeKalb, Jo Daviess, Lee, Ogle, Stephenson, Whiteside and Winnebago counties) has seen six days of positivity increases and two days of hospital admission increases. The region's positivity rate decreased to 5.7%, a decrease of 0.9 percentage points in a single day. Currently, 42% of medical/surgical beds and 50% of ICU beds are available.

The North-Central region (Bureau, Fulton, Grundy, Henderson, Henry, Kendall, Knox, La Salle, Livingston, Marshall, McDonough, McLean, Mercer, Peoria, Putnam, Rock Island, Stark, Tazewell, Warren and Woodford counties) has seen five days of positivity increases and three days of hospital admission increases. The region's positivity rate decreased to 7.5%. Currently, 41% of medical/surgical beds and 41% of ICU beds are available.

Chicago has seen two days of positivity increases and two days of hospital admission increases. The region's positivity rate decreased to 5.0%. Currently, 27% of medical/surgical beds and 40% of ICU beds are available.

Suburban Cook County has seen three days of positivity increases and four days of hospital admission increases. The region's positivity rate decreased to 5.9%, a single-day decrease of 0.8 percentage points. Currently, 30% of medical/surgical beds and 35% of ICU beds are available.

Expectations are always sky high at most Power 5 programs before the season.

Dreams of magical runs to a championship or an upper-tier bowl game dance in the heads of nearly every fan at every program, but the reality is the majority of the fans will be disappointed by these high expectations.

What should fans expect? What is a reasonable expectation for your team?

We are taking a look at every Power 5 program in the country and assigning a realistic win expectation for each team. These are not over-under betting odds you will find overseas or in Las Vegas. No, these are my personal expectations for each team and why I believe fans should keep these realistic expectations in mind as they try to provide a proper perspective on the upcoming season.

Today we end with the SEC, the only Power 5 conference siding with a conference-only schedule this fall. Alabama and Georgia are the favorites to meet in the SEC Championship Game, but upsets are bound to happen in an expanded conference season, right? The conference is also breaking in four new head coaches while replacing several star quarterbacks, including LSU's Heisman Trophy winner Joe Burrow. Could chaos reign in the SEC?

More importantly, as a rabid fan, how can you put this season in perspective? How many wins should you realistically expect for your team? My win totals and explanations can be found in the space below.

During Cordovas early days (1908-1911), when it was a boisterous railroad boomtown, the religious and social needs of both construction workers and the more genteel town residents were served by an Episcopal social club called the Red Dragon. Built on land donated by the Copper River and Northwestern Railway and painted railroad red with paint provided by the railway, the Red Dragon was a 24-feet-by-36-feet wood-frame building perched atop a steep hill overlooking Odiak Slough (the oldest section of town).

The Red Dragon served as a social club six days a week, but on Sundays an altar was lowered from the rafters for services. This arrangement served the needs of Cordova during its early years before the railroad was completed, but by the mid 1910s, the now well-established parish needed a church building.

The priest in charge of the Cordova parish during the 1910s, Eustace Ziegler, was also an accomplished artist and draftsman. He drew up plans for a church building that shared the same dimensions as the Red Dragon. Although smaller in size, Cordovas Episcopal church is similarly-styled to Sewards St. Peters Episcopal Church (built in 1906), with steeply-pitched gable roof, arched windows, decorative buttresses and shingle siding.

It took several years to arrange adequate financing, but in the fall of 1918 construction of the Cordova church started at a site about 100 feet east of the Red Dragon, at the corner of Lake Avenue and Second Street. Construction was financed in part by a large contribution from the Kennecott Copper Corporation. According to Nicki Nielsens book, The Red Dragon and St. Georges, the churchs pulpit was even constructed in the railways shops.

By the spring of 1919 the church building was debt-free and sufficiently finished to be consecrated on Easter Sunday, April 20 as St. Georges Episcopal Church. The building was dedicated to the memory of Erastus Corning Hawkins (1860-1912), who was the chief engineer in charge of construction of the White Pass and Yukon Railway as well as the CR&NW. He was also an active member of the St. Georges parish.

National Park Service documents state that St. Georges, as constructed, was a 24 feet wide by 36 feet long single-story wood-frame structure, with an 8-feet-by-12-feet entrance vestibule at the buildings northern end. Both the sanctuary and the entrance had steeply pitched gable roofs. Atop the sanctuary roofs northern gable end sat a square, pyramid-shaped belfry with steeple, and a chimney occupied the sanctuarys southern gable end.

Decorative buttresses divided the sanctuarys east and west walls into four bays, and each bay had a tall arched multi-paned window centered in it. Smaller matching windows were located on the east and west walls of the entrance vestibule. The entire building roof, steeple, and walls was sheathed in wood shingles, with the shingled painted a dark brown and trim painted white.

The original structure had a concrete basement under half the sanctuary. In 1980 the concrete basement was extended under the entire structure.

The church has changed very little since it was constructed. In 1982 it, as well as the Red Dragon parish hall next door, were added to the National Register of Historic Places as the Red Dragon Historic District.

In 2013 St. Georges parish began restoration work on both the Red Dragon and St. Georges Church, including roof replacement, and foundation and electrical work. Most of the work on the Red Dragon has been finished, but work continues on the church building.

The National Park Service, through its Heritage Documentation Programs division, has produced a fascinating 2-minute fly-through of both the Red Dragon and St. Georges. The video can be viewed at bit.ly/3h0QFUb.

A wildfire hazard property assessment class was held in Castle Valley Aug. 25 to train eight members of the Castle Valley Fire Department and several fire personnel from the State Division of Forest, Fire and State Lands.

The class was held to train students on assessing the fire risk by using several homes in Castle Valley as examples and used a point system to determine how likely they were to catch fire during a wildland blaze. The class was conducted by Grand County Fire Warden Bruce Jenkins and FFSL Wildland/Urban Interface Coordinator Duncan Fuchise.

When determining the assessment for each property, the evaluator looks at the road leading to the property to determine if the road and bridges are adequate for fire engines to enter. The roads in the town are mostly adequate, but some are steep with inadequate cul-de-sac space at the end of the road. The evaluator also looks at the driveway leading to the structure and whether access is restricted by gates, low overhanging limbs, inadequate culverts or bridges, or narrow passage with no turnarounds. There should also be a reflective noncombustible address sign that can be seen from the road.

The construction of the structure is also considered in the assessment. The chimney should be screened, the gutters should be made of noncombustible material and are clean, fences that are attached to the house should be of fire-resistant material, windows should be double or triple paned or tempered glass. The eaves of a house, the vents, roofing material, exterior siding, and decks and balconies are also considerations, not to mention the defensible space around the house.

Anyone can ask for a free assessment of their house and property by calling the fire department and leaving a message at 435-259-3655. One or two of the evaluators will visit your property to determine how firewise it is and make possible suggestions.

It is sad to report the death of our longtime neighbor, Hank Freeman, who died at home during the early morning hours of Friday, Aug. 28. Born Harris Brown Freeman on Dec. 12, 1938, he lived in Castle Valley for many years and worked at various occupations, including as surveyor and satellite television technician.

He was an avid ham radio operator, having many friends, and was in contact with fellow ham operators around the world. He was very intelligent and had a technical mind with interests in many technical fields and he was always friendly with a keen sense of humor.

Hank was proud of his service in the United States Air Force. As an airman first class, he served six years in the Strategic Air Command during the turbulent Cold War years after the Korean War. He spent time at a SAC base in Wichita, Kansas, serving in an armament and electronics squadron and traveled on many missions to SAC bases across the country.

He spent a lot of time in the air in those historic B-52 Stratofortress bombers. During those years of high alert, he told me once, SAC kept a third of their fleet in the air at all times.

One night earlier this month Hank was out in the yard after dark getting a photo of the comet NEOWISE that was visible at that time. He tripped in the tall grass and damaged the bone around the area of an earlier hip replacement. After an operation in Salt Lake City and a period of recuperation at Moab Regional Hospital, he returned home but a reoccurring lung illness finally took its toll and he died. He will be sorely missed by all who knew him.

It was also tragic to learn of the untimely death of one of our former Castle Valley young women. Deone Ehlers Rhorer, 54, died unexpectedly from heart failure Saturday, Aug. 22 in Ogden. Even though Deone, the daughter of the late Jerry Ehlers and JoAnna Stoddard of Castle Valley, hasnt lived in the valley for a long time, she will be remembered by people in Castle Valley and Moab as a beautiful, bright and happy young woman.

Her family moved to the valley when she was 10 years old and she attended elementary and high school in Moab along with her nine sisters and a brother. Deone was a sister, wife, mother, grandmother, and a 30-year real estate professional who left this world as a successful contributor to society during her short life.

You can't always get what you want something Brie Larson has discovered the hard way and on a lot of occasions.

The Oscar-winning actress posted a video to YouTube on Sept. 3 in which she lists off a battery of films that she auditioned for and didn't get, and the list is stunning.

From just 2008 to 2009, she said she missed out on"Sucker Punch," "Gulliver's Travels," "It's Kind of a Funny Story," "Mars Needs Moms," "Percy Jackson and The Lightning Thief," "The Sorcerer's Apprentice," "The Book of Eli," "Get Him to the Greek," "The Descendants," "Jennifer's Body," "Legion," "The House on the Left," "Drive Angry" and "Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen."

After listing "Untitled Nancy Meyers Project," Brie said, "Not sure what that one was but I didn't get it!"

Similarly, she missed out on the "Untitled Wayans Brothers Project."

"Not sure what that is, but it didn't happen for me," she said.

She didn't get "Avatar" either, but she doesn't even remember auditioning for the film.

Ironically, Brie who went on to star in the blockbuster "Captain Marvel" didn't get cast in Marvel movies "Iron Man 2 or "Thor."

Taking the long list of rejections in stride, the actress said was nearly cast in "Juno," "Thirteen," "Brink," "Smart House," "Tomorrowland," "Pitch Perfect," "Into the Woods," "Youth in Revolt" and "Peter Pan." Brie also made it to the final round of "Halt and Catch Fire" and "The Big Bang Theory" castings. Ultimately, she got none of them.

"It's a lot of heartbreak, folks," Brie said. "Here I am, still standing."

Brie noted that networks and studios actually passed on her for several projects, only to later offer her work. That's how she booked her gig on "United States of Tara."

In July, Brie said she also auditioned for "The Hunger Games," "Star Wars" and a "Terminator" film all of which she didn't get.

Brie's getting the last laugh now.
