Extra Mile Day Movement Shines Light on 1,000 Volunteer Heroes

575 Cities Go the Extra Mile with November 1 Declaration.

Los Angeles, CA, August 11, 2015 -- The number of cities declaring November 1 Extra Mile Day continues to soar. With 150 cities currently onboard for 2015, it is expected that over 575 mayors from across the U.S. will recognize this passionate movement celebrating individual heroes and organizations that are “going the extra mile” in service and volunteerism.

In association with Extra Mile America, mayors from both sides of the political aisle are coming together to join the mission. At a time when many are demanding changes in service and opportunity, Extra Mile Day shines a light on the heroes who are creating community transformation and reminds us all that creating change is always possible in ourselves, families, organizations and communities when we “go the extra mile.”

Extra Mile Day is the vision of motivational speaker and author Shawn Anderson. First spreading the “go the extra mile” message in 2009, Anderson used a symbolic 4,000-mile ocean-to-ocean bike ride. On the solo ride, the non-bicyclist interviewed over 200 people who had been identified as going the extra mile in overcoming setback or who had risked everything in order to accomplish something extraordinary. It was on that tour that Extra Mile Day was established with 23 cities making the inaugural declaration.

“I believe life’s real heroes are the ones who unselfishly give of themselves to purposes that make life better for others,” Anderson shares. “It’s the teacher spending after school hours in preparation, the volunteer serving food to the homeless, and the neighbor mowing the lawn for a busy neighbor. Gestures big and small make a difference.”

“The ‘go the extra mile’ message gives people an option to just throwing their arms in the air and saying ‘I give up’ when life punches them in the gut,” Anderson says. “‘Going the extra mile’ is about choosing to quit complaining about all that is wrong in our lives, and instead, taking action to initiate the change we desire.”

Anderson and his team have expanded the audience for the message and are now taking it to an international stage, starting with an August 2015 speaking tour in the Philippines that is expected to draw thousands of people.

“We wait for a government program, a boss, or a spouse to make our lives better. That’s the wrong strategy. It’s up to us. It’s you and me looking in the mirror and saying ‘It’s my time to make a difference,’” Anderson shares. “Extra Mile Day is a reminder of the power we each have to make change happen when we choose to do more, give more, and go the extra mile.”

Floods Leave Behind a Legacy of Devastation-New Weapon Offers Hope to Flood Victims

Flood and rain in the country leads to disastrous consequences for most home owners. Besides evident damage (wet walls, ruined furniture, etc.) there are also unforeseen dangers as presented by level 4 black-water including gram negative bacteria and toxic mold. Using a high powered ozone generator to sanitize the damaged buildings can eliminate the biological hazards posed by mold mildew and bacteria, provides a complete and effective solution to such problems.

New York, August 01, 2015(PressReleaseCircle) -- From Kentucky to Oklahoma, there are very few regions unaffected by the recent spate of rains. Just recently, two people lost their lives, and thousands were forced out of their homes in eastern Kentucky, owing to widespread floods in the area. Even now, workers from the Kentucky State Guard and the Red Cross are working ceaselessly to help people recuperate in the shelters set up across the region.

This isn’t even the worst flooding of the season, with the May 26th, 2015 floods in Texas and Oklahoma gaining prime spot in the new. Oklahoma and Texas recorded the highest rainfall in the region in May, leading to huge amounts of water being accumulated in the Southern Plains. As a direct consequence of this, the Louisiana plain suffered from the rise in the water levels of the Red River.

Levels of the Red River were at their highest recorded state, ever, last month in June. This is a 70-year high, or so it would seem, with the water reaching 37.14 feet height at its peak near Shreveport. The disaster which followed in its wake led to the President of the United States declaring an emergency in the state. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) announced the emergency, promising hopes of federal disaster assistance for the local recovery in flood related areas.

While this federal financial support on the part of the US government is admirable, the inhabitants of the state still have to deal with the effect of the flood. Cities like Shreveport, parishes of Bossier and Caddo, saw the worst of this flood, with both homes and businesses being damaged badly. Even for those lucky enough to have their homes still intact, the damages of water accumulated for days in their homes is likely to leave its mark.

Water damages also include the dangers of mold, which brings with it not just a health hazard (asthma, lung infections, etc.) but serious damage to wooden furniture or structure of homes as well. By affecting the foundation itself, mold can creep into your house and adversely affect your family and yourself, even without you noticing it. Floodwater is often a Level 4 black-water and also carries viruses and gram negative bacteria. Since structures have 3 dimensional interfaces there are always places the water carries pathogens that cannot be easily disinfected with anything else but a gas. Accordingly scientists at Los Alamos National Laboratory recommend using ozone gas to accomplish this.

In conditions such as these, homeowners would do well to follow these steps: remove water from basements and other similar areas, replace the wet walls, dry your home and furniture completely, and then run a high powered ozone generator. Most ozone generator do not produce enough ozone to truly generate high enough concentration levels to kill the viruses bacteria and mold. The BiO3Blaster ozone machine product line was created for both homeowners and professional contractors to treat situations just like this. Ozone shock treatments are the only foolproof mechanism for killing viruses, bacteria, and mold spores all at once, eliminating the musty odors sanitizing everything.

Hygienist Phillip Fry Recommends Inspection To Find Mold Hidden in Lansing and Ann Arbor Homes

Certified Environmental Hygienist Phillip Fry suggests that homeowners and owners and managers of commercial buildings in Lansing, Ann Arbor, and southern Michigan hire the professional mold inspection and testing of their buildings to find dangerous, toxic mold growth lurking inside walls, floors, ceilings, attics, basements, crawl spaces, and heating/cooling equipment and air ducts.

Montrose, MI, August 05, 2015 -- "Dangerous, health-destroying toxic mold growth often lurks unseen inside walls, ceilings, floors, attics, basements, crawl spaces, and heating/cooling equipment and air ducts in Lansing and Ann Arbor area homes, workplaces, and commercial buildings," warns Phillip Fry, Certified Environmental Hygienist, Professional Industrial Hygienist, and webmaster since 1999 of the mold education website www.moldinspector.com.

New Clean Coal Technology is Good for Environment and the Coal Fired Power Industry

Recent rulings on coal may come as a breather for the coal industry, but it’s hardly future proof. To safeguard the interests of the environment and legitimize the use of coal, a solution such as Burn Less Coal’s clean coal catalyst technology is good for the environment and breathes new life back into the coal power industry.


New York, July 23, 2015 -- President Obama’s signature campaign towards a green legacy just took a setback, with the Supreme Court judgment that ruled against the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) proposal to curb the use of coal and also emissions of greenhouse gases. But this decision of the Supreme Court, led by Justice Antonio Scalia, in no ways puts the nail on the coffin of the president’s campaign. What is more, this ruling in favor of the coal industry may not be entirely black and white. Here’s why.

The “Mercury Case” ruling had a 5-4 victory which held that the costs were of utmost concern to the bench. In terms of the result on the environment, this victory is a major setback because it means that coal companies can essentially continue generating power. America needs all the jobs that it can keep. America needs to energy to run or it will not be able to compete with its allies and foes.
Just to clarify the ruling, the Supreme Court judgment, in no way at all, completely negates the proposal to curb mercury emissions. It just adds more hurdles to the EPA’s proposed crackdown, slowing coals seemingly inevitable demise.

Even though the judgment has been touted as a major victory for coal companies, in terms of future prospects, the situation still looks fairly bleak. As per the Clean Act Rule, it is still possible for companies to be shut down and the use of coal prohibited without any concern about the families and jobs these irrational moves undermine and damage.

This move, however, is foolhardy for at least two reasons – a) Because proposed replacement fuels such as Natural Gas aren’t as “Clean” as environmentalists would have you believe, and b) The expense of switching out existing systems of combustion, production of energy, and transportation would accrue more economic debt and put tens of thousands of people out of their jobs.

The coal industry is part of the human legacy – the best approach, perhaps, is one that doesn’t completely forsake it, but instead takes into account years of painstaking research that allows coal energy to become a more clean, green fuel than it is at present. By minimizing the amount of infrastructural changes required, by allowing workers to retain their jobs, by creating new jobs, truly clean coal allows a seamless delivery of energy without the pollution. A new approach using a clean coal catalyst provided by the company, Burn Less Coal, serves this very end. This catalyst increases heat of the combusticon of coal and reduces the amount both carbon monoxide (up to 76%) and carbon dioxide (up to 40%) gas produced, it can increase energy efficiency by up to 25%. When coupled with Burn Less Coals new 99.9% effective W.E.S.P. air scrubbing technology coal power production can bear nearly 100% clean.

Futuristic solutions such as these are perhaps the only way to protect the interests of both the coal industry and the environment.
