KALISPELL - A group of volunteers are brightening up a Kalispell park this week, just in time for the warm spring time weather.

Sherwin-Williams employees have partnered with the Kalispell Lions Club to refurbish three wood gazebos, a pavilion, and a storage building inside Lions Park.

The Sherwin-Williams Kalispell store donated enough materials to paint and re-stain all five structures in the next two days, as part of National Painting Week.

Several of the store's employees were out at Lions Park on Monday, power washing the gazebos.

"We're probably going to have about 3-5 volunteers in the next day, depending how everything shakes out. We'd be more than happy to have more volunteers. We have enough t-shirts for 12 people, so anyone can come down and help, said Matt Stone, Sherwin-Williams Kalispell Store Manager.

This is one of about 150 Sherwin-Williams community projects happening nationwide right now.

Hotdog fanatics David Didz Parker, 28, and Alex King, 26, launched gourmet sausage company Potdog late last year to challenge the dominance of cheap frankfurters and poor quality buns.

The fillings always drop out and you end up eating a horrible stale bit of bread, said Mr Parker. We wanted to raise the game.

The two founders, both full-time advertising executives, have developed a concept that pairs sausages with a variety of vegetables and other toppings in a pot. From a standing start in December, the first Potdog stall in Maltby Market, London Bridge, now turns over up to 600 every Saturday. Street food is a massive business now, said Mr Parker. We sell about 100 pots a day.

Setting up a market stall is easier than people think, said Mr Parker. We just walked down there and asked the other stall-holder how to get a plot. Everyone was really helpful.

The young entrepreneurs source their sausages from renowned butcher OSheas and the fruit and vegetables from Tayshaws, both based a few minutes from Maltby Market. It was really important to us to find local suppliers, said Mr Parker. We like being part of the community and supporting our fellow businesses.

The Potdog founders consistently come up with new flavours to keep hungry shoppers coming back for more. We just finished a run of an American-style pot, said Mr Parker. We set OSheas the challenge of finding the right sausage. They recommended a smoky bacon one, which tasted incredible with hash browns and fried onions. On Saturday, the pair added an Italian-inspired creation to the menu: the Casanova, with garlic sausage, herby potatoes, caprese salad and home-made pesto.

Mr Parkers advice to other foodie entrepreneurs looking to make a living on the market: Avoid gazebos. Nothing makes food look more delicious than natural light. And watch out for the weather. If it rains, youll make half what you do on a sunny day.

Excerpt from:
ANA LUCIA BIGHETTI FENG SHUI E A GRANDE HARMONIA. - Video

Punkhannock, PA (PRWEB) April 08, 2014

In their book Welcome Home: Creating What You Want by How You Live (published by Balboa Press), Sybilla Lenz and Deborah Courville teach readers to incorporate the principles of Feng Shui into their everyday lives.

In Welcome Home Lenz and Courville make Feng Shui the ancient Chinese philosophy and study of the relationship between human beings and their environment easy for anyone to practice. By following their techniques and solutions, readers can make positive and effective changes in their lives through making simple changes to their homes. Welcome Home gives readers many examples of people who have used Lenz and Courvilles techniques to transform their lives.

An excerpt from Welcome Home:

A life we truly love is possible and supported by a home that is an intended space for all aspirations we seek in life. When a home is balanced energetically with the elements in our environment such as fire, earth, metal, water, and wood, it radiates a message of content. If a home is not balanced, it may broadcast discontent.

Lenz and Courville hope readers discover the practical benefits of Feng Shui through Welcome Home.

What makes our book different is that we focus on enhancing our home and life in it, says Lenz. When we do that we enhance our life too.

People: Week of April 7, 2014

Upgrading Millennium Park trails is on this years BOMB (Bloody Old Mens Brigade) Squad plan, but the group is in need of liability insurance coverage.

Representatives were at the City of Powell River committee of the whole meeting March 20, with a proposal to upgrade the trails. Once a year the team meets to choose up to 20 projects for the coming years labour.

The proposed work would concentrate on Willingdon Beach trail, UNAMIT trail, McFall Creek trail, the cut connector, kingfisher trail, triple by-pass trail and McGuffie Creek trail extension. The squad also plans to re-establish a lost trail along McGuffie Creek that previously existed until about 2000. The new trail construction will provide a link to Powell River General Hospital complex and the existing trails beyond.

Its generally recognized that the trails are lacking a bit of attention for ease of use and for safety reasons, Mayor Dave Formosa said. The timeline is a bit of a concern. I guess what we can commit to is to make it a priority because we know that the seasonal influx is just around the corner.

Tony Matthews was the BOMB Squad founder and a long-time member of the community. In 1986 Matthews decided to build a trail from Haywire Bay to Mowat Bay, touching a few of his favourite fishing spots along the way. When the route was finished, it ran from Mowat Bay past Lost Lake and Inland Lake before winding back to Mowat Bay. When it came time to build bridges over creeks and waterways, Matthews enlisted the help of friends Roy Hurt, Roger Taylor and Jim Koleszar. Taylor and Koleszar were carpenters in the mill for 40 years. Hurt was an electrician.

In 1988 we finished the bridge and we met up with another four people who were also building trails, Taylor said. We discovered our goals were similar and joined forces.

Originally working under the auspices of what was the ministry of forests, the squad was covered under the ministrys liability insurance. When the forestry service branched out and developed a recreation department it didnt have the funds or the bodies to do what it needed to do. The BOMB Squad was a team of 22 men, Taylor explained. We needed a liability clause but were unable to obtain one. Our need to associate with an organization to get liability coverage matched the ministrys need for bodies. Forestry took us under wing and supplied us with what we needed and supported us with a liability clause.

Taylor said the squad was able to cut down the odd tree if absolutely needed in order to construct the trails. Everything we built in the forest came from the forest itself.

He pointed out that at one time there was a rumour that the trails built by the squad were unauthorized. The fact is, whenever we built a new trail we turned it over to forestry under section 54 of the Forestry Practices Act. We maintained the trails by virtue of the agreement we had with them.

Formosa said the trails and bridges the bomb squad has built over the years are noted worldwide. Weve never had this opportunity to extend our sincere appreciation to the crew.
