The LeakStop system will constantly monitor the user selected areas for moisture and close the valve as soon as moisture is detected. The valve can be manually opened and closed independent of leaks by pushing the open and close soft touch buttons located on the front of the actuator. A brass ball valve is used to prevent clogging within the valve. Two moisture sensors are attached to the electrical control box for placing around the area or appliance you would like to monitor. When activated, this valve will stay closed until it has been manually reset. Available in a variety of different sizes, these systems pay for themselves after the first activation. Read more

• Breakthrough Infrared Sensing Technology including New Hi-Tech Delivery System
• Humanely Exterminates Both Mice and Rats!
• Approx. 2 Years of Battery Life on 4 “D” Batteries
• Clean and Easy to Operate – 100% Effective
• Environmentally Preferred – Poison Free!

The new AgriZap RZUIR1 Rat Zapper Infrared Ultra utilizes a revolutionary new infrared detecting system to sense the presence of the mouse, rat or other rodent. A newly designed high tech delivery system, including stainless steel kill pads housed in an aesthetic recycled plastic canister, now offers a 100% humane kill rate with this new model Rat Zapper. The Ultra IR Rat Zapper utilizes 4 “D” Cell Batteries which, in standby mode, will last approximately 2 years or provide 100 kills per battery set. Red and Green indicator lights provide system alerts. Simply bait the Rat Zapper with any dry food as an attractant to the rodent (dry pet food, trail mix, peanuts, etc.), turn the main switch ON (Green light says all systems are GO) and when the rodent enters the Rat Zapper it will be humanely exterminated with a quick but deadly shock – no escapes. Disposal is easy; just tip the Rat Zapper over an appropriate receptacle and you never have to touch or come in contact with a dead mouse or rat again. Simply re-bait, place in an active rodent area, and turn the main switch back ON. It’s that easy and efficient. Read More

The New Year brings introspective thoughts to the minds of all Americans. Personal trainers may be asking themselves, Am I doing all I can for my fitness marketing? Have I invested in my education and developed automated systems to make my life easier? No one likes the rat race of working 60 hours of week for low wages and wondering how theyll pay the bills each month.

Sam Bakhtiar is a self-made millionaire who works in the trenches of personal training not because he has to, but because he loves to. He spends more time with his wife and daughter, truly enjoying life now that he has a handle on fitness marketing techniques that work. At one time, I operated every day by the seat of my pants. I didnt have any systems in place and I had no idea what was or wasnt working with my fitness marketing efforts. Everything changed when I decided to invest in my education and expand my knowledge base.

Sam had already been through college, where he graduated with a bachelors degree in pre-med and nutrition, as well as a doctorate of chiropractics. Yet, he felt they didnt really drive home the most important lessons of all how to market oneself, how to automate business processes as much as possible, and how to close more clients. He found a couple of fitness marketing experts who were living the lifestyle he imagined for himself and apprenticed for 18 months. By the time he left the wings of the professionals, he took his business off the ground and became a full-fledged millionaire using his newfound knowledge.

Its amazing how much you can learn from someone else who has already experimented and made all the mistakes for you. I know you feel like youre so busy you cant spare the time or money to better yourself, but if you want your fitness marketing to become easier, cheaper and more efficient, youve got to put your ego aside and seek help in earning the income you know you deserve, Sam explains.

Twenty-year industry veteran Sam Bakhtiar offers several different types of fitness marketing mentorship opportunities. The most in-depth type of mentorship is his annual coaching program, where he gives participants a blueprint of how he runs his business that will virtually guarantee success. If you want to skyrocket your income during the first month of implementation and cut your work hours, this is the program you want, Sam says.

Sam says the results speak for themselves, explaining, One of my prot

Sharon Kleyne, host of the Sharon Kleyne Hour Power of Water syndicated radio talk show, recently interviewed Anil Naidoo of Canada’s Blue Planet Project about water storage, “fracking” (hydraulic fracturing), gender equality with respect to water, and the 2012 Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro. The interview may be heard on-demand on World Talk Radio, Voice America, Green Talk Network and Apple iTunes.

Part of the Sharon Kleyne Hour Power of Water’s mission is education about water access, purity, and conservation. Lack of reliable water access, according to Sharon Kleyne, frequently prevents education and economic growth in the world’s poorest regions.

The Blue Planet Project, founded by author and environmental writer Maude Barlow, is a worldwide activist movement, headquartered in Canada, that promotes improved water access and water justice.

Sharon Kleyne asked about expanded use of reservoirs to impound water for drinking and agriculture, to support a growing Earth population. She believes that water storage reservoirs also increase and improve the air’s natural humidity.

Mr. Naidoo suggested that there may be alternatives to water storage reservoirs and that there is still plenty of fresh water on the Earth’s surface. For maximum environmental benefit, we need to make sure that rivers are unpolluted and free to flow, that human caused global warming is controlled and that water is used sparingly and wisely. It is never good science, Mr. Naidoo suggests, to attempt to override natural systems.

Sharon Kleyne noted that when a small dam and power generator near her home was recently removed to improve fish habitat, area power bills doubled. Sharon Kleyne and Mr. Naidoo agreed that modern technology often requires a huge amount of water and that this should be carefully monitored. They cautioned against going blindly into the future.

Regarding the global water situation, the Blue Planet Project contends that the time for talking is past and that immediate action is necessary. However, this is not happening and there is not nearly enough public awareness of the potential problems caused by global water degradation and loss in the ground and in the air.

Mr. Naidoo discussed hydraulic fracturing or “hydrofracking,” a recently introduced method of extracting crude petroleum from oil sands in Canada and parts of the United States, including North Dakota. The system is also used to extract methane and natural gas, and to reactivate old oil and gas wells. This entails pumping a huge volume of water deep into the ground to force the oil and gas upward. The water then lost to the hydrological system, in some cases forever.

As it happens, Canada (home of the Blue Planet Project) is one of the most water rich countries in the world. But they still need to manage, protect and conserve their water and not take it for granted.

Blue Planet Project and Sharon Kleyne are deeply concerned with “gender equity” regarding water. Where water is scarce or unsanitary, and must be fetched every day from a distant location, the task invariably falls to women and children, who are then unable to be educated or involve themselves in economic activities. This is one reason why the poorest countries remain poor. Statistics strongly indicate that when this cycle is broken, economic growth occurs.

Mr. Naidoo expects 2012 to be a “watershed” year in the management of global water resources. He is encouraged by the upcoming Earth Summit in Rio de Janiero, the first in 20 years, and by the general global movement, however slow and tentative, towards a “green economy.”
