S-Line Contractors Introduces Expanded Commercial Pipeline Services Across Southern California

August 21, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
S-Line Contractors, a licensed pipeline and underground utility contractor based in Southern California, has introduced an expanded suite of infrastructure capabilities covering water, gas, storm drainage, electrical conduit, telecommunications, and fiber pipeline systems for commercial and industrial clients throughout the region.
The expanded offering brings together the installation, upgrade, repair, and coordination of essential underground infrastructure under a single licensed contractor. The scope is designed to serve developers, property owners, general contractors, and industrial operators who require multiple utility trades coordinated within a single project. The capabilities span water and gas lines, storm drain systems, electrical conduit, and telecommunications and fiber pathways.

S-Line Contractors holds several state classifications that support this broader scope, including a C-34 Pipeline Contractor license, a Class B General Building Contractor license, and a C-10 Electrical Contractor license. These classifications allow the company to manage construction projects involving multiple trades, site work, building improvements, and related coordination without requiring clients to engage separate specialty contractors for each utility discipline.
"Underground infrastructure is often the most complex part of a commercial project, and it rarely involves just one utility," said Fahed EL. Bitar of S-Line Contractors. "Bringing water, gas, storm drainage, electrical conduit, telecommunications, and fiber capabilities together under one licensed contractor removes coordination gaps that can slow a project down and helps keep timelines and scopes aligned."
The company reports that combining pipeline work with general building and electrical classifications addresses a common challenge for developers and general contractors, who frequently must coordinate multiple specialty firms to complete underground systems. By managing these disciplines internally, the company aims to reduce the number of separate contracts and handoffs required on a given site.
S-Line Contractors provides services across Los Angeles County, Riverside County, Orange County, and San Bernardino County. The company has completed more than 100 projects and has received multiple industry awards for its work. Its client base includes commercial, industrial, retail, hospitality, health and aged care, civil works, and government sectors across Southern California.
"Clients increasingly expect a single point of accountability for underground utility work," El. Bitar added. "The combined licensing allows the team to take responsibility for a full range of pipeline and utility systems, from the initial installation through repair and upgrades over the life of a facility."
The expanded capabilities reflect a broader focus within the construction industry on integrated project delivery, where owners seek to consolidate specialty trades and reduce the administrative burden of managing multiple subcontractors. Pipeline and utility coordination is a frequent source of delays on commercial sites, particularly when multiple systems share the same underground corridors.


S-Line Contractors is a commercial construction and pipeline contracting company headquartered in Riverside, California. The company delivers pipeline and underground utility solutions alongside general building and electrical services for clients throughout Southern California. Guided by core values that include safety, integrity, craftsmanship, collaboration, innovation, and community building, the firm serves a diverse range of commercial, industrial, institutional, and government clients across Los Angeles, Riverside, Orange, and San Bernardino counties.

Zahnarztbleaching Highlights Gentle Dental Bleaching Options for Swiss Consumers with Sensitive Teeth

Zurich, Zurich - August 21, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Zahnarztbleaching, the independent Swiss resource for professional teeth whitening information, has expanded its educational content to address one of the most common concerns among consumers considering cosmetic dental treatments: tooth sensitivity. The new material explains why sensitivity can occur during whitening and outlines gentler approaches that make treatment accessible to a wider range of patients across Switzerland.
Sensitivity has long discouraged many people from pursuing whitening procedures. According to the educational guides published on the platform, discomfort typically arises when the active ingredients in whitening agents temporarily reach the nerve endings within the tooth. The content clarifies that this reaction is usually temporary and can be managed through several established methods.

Among the options described for those seeking Zahnarztbleaching sensitive teeth solutions are low-concentration whitening gels, desensitizing pre-treatments, custom-fitted trays used with scheduled breaks, and LED light-assisted procedures. The guides also provide practical tips for minimizing discomfort before and after treatment, giving readers a clearer understanding of what to expect throughout the process.
The expanded coverage reflects broader interest in cosmetic dentistry within Switzerland. As more consumers explore whitening treatments, demand has grown for objective, science-based information that is not tied to any single clinic or product. Zahnarztbleaching addresses this need by offering provider-neutral guides covering professional whitening procedures, cost transparency, safety considerations, and the differences between clinical treatments and at-home kits.
Beyond sensitivity, the platform maintains a range of educational articles for Swiss readers. Topics include the science behind whitening, realistic before-and-after expectations, dietary habits that influence results, and guidance on maintaining brighter teeth over time. The material is written for general audiences, translating dental science into accessible language for consumers weighing their options.
Cost transparency remains a central theme of the resource. Swiss patients often face uncertainty about pricing for cosmetic dental work, and the platform publishes cost guides intended to help individuals budget for bleaching procedures before consulting a provider. This focus on clear, practical information distinguishes the resource as an educational tool rather than a promotional channel.
In addition to consumer guides, the Zahnarztbleaching platform functions as a directory connecting patients with teeth whitening providers throughout Switzerland. Dental professionals may register their practices to reach individuals actively researching cosmetic treatments, while patients can compare providers and review independent educational content in a single location.
The emphasis on sensitive teeth is part of a wider effort to ensure that whitening information reflects the full spectrum of patient needs. By documenting gentle alternatives, the platform aims to reduce hesitation among those who assumed that sensitivity ruled out cosmetic whitening entirely.


Zahnarztbleaching is an independent, Swiss-focused educational resource dedicated to professional teeth whitening and dental bleaching. Available at www.zahnarztbleaching.ch, the platform provides expert guides, provider comparisons, cost information, and science-based articles covering both professional and at-home whitening approaches. Its content addresses safety concerns, dietary influences, sensitive teeth considerations, and realistic treatment expectations, while its directory helps connect Swiss patients with dental professionals offering whitening services.

822 Heat and Air Expands Commercial HVAC Service Across the DFW Metroplex

Benbrook, TX - August 21, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
822 Heat and Air has expanded its commercial HVAC installation and air conditioning repair services to better serve businesses throughout the Greater Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex and surrounding suburbs. The expansion broadens access to full-scale heating and cooling solutions for commercial property owners across communities including Crowley, Burleson, Benbrook, Granbury, Joshua, Godley, Cleburne, Alvarado, Fort Worth, Arlington, and Dallas.
The expanded offering focuses on complete commercial HVAC installation for large-scale facilities, along with repair and ongoing maintenance. As demand for reliable climate systems continues to grow across the region, the company has increased its capacity to handle central air systems, rooftop units, split systems, ventilation solutions, ductwork design, heat pump systems, chiller systems, and building automation systems.

Commercial buildings depend on properly functioning climate systems to maintain productivity and comfort, and aging equipment often reaches a point where continued repairs become less practical than a full upgrade. The company now provides comprehensive hvac replacement commercial services designed to help businesses transition to newer, more energy-efficient systems that reduce operational costs.
David, a spokesperson for 822 Heat and Air, said the expansion responds to steady growth in commercial demand across North Texas. "Businesses across the region have been looking for a contractor that can handle everything from the initial consultation through installation and long-term maintenance," David said. "Expanding these services allows the team to meet that need with a single point of accountability, whether a facility requires a new rooftop unit or a complete system overhaul."
The company's certified technicians perform each installation with an emphasis on precision, energy efficiency, and system longevity. Energy-saving solutions remain central to the company's approach, helping commercial clients lower utility expenses while reducing environmental impact. Support extends from the first assessment through post-installation service, giving property managers ongoing access to maintenance and repair.
For businesses in and around Johnson County, the addition of cleburne commercial hvac service reflects the company's continued investment in areas outside the immediate Fort Worth core. Serving these communities directly allows for faster response and localized support for commercial clients.
"The goal is to deliver dependable commercial hvac systems that keep facilities running without interruption," David said. "Every project is approached with the understanding that downtime affects a client's operations, so the work is done efficiently and correctly the first time."
Along with its commercial work, 822 Heat and Air continues to provide residential HVAC services, ductwork installation and repair, and AC tune-up services for homeowners throughout its service areas. Financing options are available subject to credit approval and offer eligibility, with terms arranged directly between the customer and the chosen finance company.

Sprayman Highlights Acoustic Performance of Spray Foam Insulation for Noise Reduction

August 21, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Sprayman is addressing the acoustic performance of spray foam insulation as demand for quieter interior spaces rises. According to the World Health Organization, environmental noise is one of the most significant environmental risks to public health in Europe, contributing to sleep disturbance and other effects for millions of residents. The trend toward open-concept floor plans and multi-family construction has placed greater attention on how insulation materials manage sound transmission between rooms and units.
Sound performance in building assemblies is commonly measured by Sound Transmission Class, or STC, a rating derived from laboratory testing under ASTM E90 for airborne sound transmission loss and calculated according to ASTM E413. Wall assemblies insulated with spray foam can achieve higher STC ratings than uninsulated cavities, since eliminating air gaps and voids is a primary factor in reducing airborne sound transmission. Closed-cell spray foam's expanding, void-filling application is well suited to closing those air pathways as it cures, in addition to its thermal and structural contributions to the assembly.

Sprayman said sound frequently travels through the small gaps and cavities in framing rather than through the structural members themselves, and that because spray foam expands to fill those voids as it cures, it reduces the air pathways that carry noise between spaces, a different mechanism than simply adding mass to a wall.
Research conducted at the National Research Council Canada's acoustics laboratory has examined how air leakage paths within a wall or floor assembly influence airborne sound transmission, finding that sealing those paths is a recognized factor in improving measured sound isolation, separate from material density alone. The ASTM E90 standard provides the controlled laboratory method used to quantify those differences across assemblies.
Sprayman added that for a home office located next to a shared living area, or for units in a multi-family building, the comfort difference often comes down to how well the assembly controls both airborne noise and air leakage paths, and that insulation which also seals the cavity addresses two of the variables that influence perceived quiet in occupied spaces.
Sprayman has published a spray foam soundproofing guide that explains how spray foam insulation contributes to sound control in walls, floors and ceiling cavities, along with general guidance on foam types and application methods for acoustic use cases.
Additional demonstrations of product applications are available through Sprayman on YouTube, where the company hosts videos covering the use of its spray foam insulation, sealants and related tools across a range of construction surfaces, addressing both professional installation and do-it-yourself use.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zchdmSB85Bk&t=1s
Sprayman is a Chantilly, Virginia-based provider of spray foam insulation and sealant solutions serving both professionals and DIY enthusiasts. The company's product line includes spray foam insulation, foam sealants, cleaners and lubricants, guns and accessories, and specialty foam products for applications including thermal insulation, sound control, pest exclusion and fire-rated construction.

Brilliant Restoration Expands Mold Remediation Services Across Four-State Area

JOPLIN, MO - August 21, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Brilliant Cleaning and Restoration, a locally owned, licensed, bonded, and insured damage restoration company serving the Four-State area, has announced a formal expansion of its mold remediation service. The enhanced offering uses EPA-approved methods to remove mold at its source and address the underlying moisture conditions that allow it to return.
The expansion reflects a growing demand for professional intervention in properties affected by hidden mold growth throughout Southwest Missouri, Northeast Oklahoma, Northwest Arkansas, and Southeast Kansas. Brilliant Restoration Mold Remediation Services follow a structured, multi-stage process designed to restore a safe indoor environment. The process begins with a thorough inspection and continues through containment, biocide treatment, HEPA vacuuming, and moisture control.

IICRC-certified technicians employ advanced detection tools capable of identifying mold behind walls, under flooring, and within HVAC systems, areas that often escape visual inspection. Technicians use specialized protective gear and treatment systems, combined with moisture-source correction, to reduce the likelihood of recurrence after the remediation is complete.
The company distinguishes professional remediation from do-it-yourself approaches. Improper handling of larger infestations can spread spores and worsen contamination, while trained technicians work to ensure complete removal and long-term prevention.
"Mold is frequently a symptom of a deeper moisture problem, and removing visible growth without correcting the source often leads to a return within weeks," said Justin, Operations Manager at Brilliant Cleaning and Restoration. "The structured process allows technicians to contain the affected area, treat the contamination, and address the conditions that caused it, so property owners are not left dealing with the same issue again."
Mold can develop in homes and businesses following water damage, plumbing leaks, or elevated humidity, and it may pose health concerns for occupants when left unaddressed. The company notes that early identification and professional handling can help limit both structural deterioration and the spread of contamination to unaffected areas of a property.
"Attempting to remove a significant infestation without proper containment can release spores throughout a structure," Justin added. "Certified technicians rely on containment, HEPA filtration, and detection technology to manage that risk and verify that the environment has been properly restored."
Brilliant Restoration provides mold remediation as part of a broader set of restoration capabilities available to residential and commercial clients across the region. The company operates on a 24/7 emergency response basis, allowing technicians to respond to property damage situations as they occur.

Copperhead Construction & Remodeling Reports Rising Demand for High-End Home Remodels Across Utah in 2026

Midvale, Utah - August 21, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Utah homeowners are increasingly choosing to reinvest in the homes they already own rather than relocate, according to remodeling trends identified by Copperhead Construction & Remodeling. Limited housing inventory, higher interest rates, and a desire to remain in established neighborhoods are driving a shift toward comprehensive, high-end renovations throughout 2026.
The family-owned contractor, based in Utah, reports that the nature of remodeling requests has changed considerably. Where projects once centered on cosmetic touches, many property owners now pursue updates that improve layouts, functionality, energy efficiency, and modern finishes. The result is a growing category of larger, more complex projects designed to transform existing homes into more functional, like-new spaces.

Whole-home remodels rank among the most requested projects. Instead of renovating one room at a time, homeowners are opting for cohesive updates that modernize floor plans, unify design across the house, and add practical storage. Kitchens continue to be a central focus, with larger multipurpose islands, integrated appliances, hidden storage, and durable countertops shaping current requests. Bathrooms are being reimagined as private wellness spaces, featuring walk-in showers, freestanding tubs, layered lighting, and improved storage.
Interest also extends beyond the primary living areas. Finished basements are being designed as natural extensions of the main floor, accommodating entertainment areas, guest suites, home gyms, and offices. Outdoor living spaces, including covered patios, outdoor kitchens, and fireplaces, are treated as additional rooms rather than afterthoughts. Accessory dwelling units are gaining attention for their flexibility, providing space for aging parents, adult children, long-term guests, rental income, or a private home office.
Energy-conscious upgrades round out the trends, with homeowners requesting better insulation, high-performance windows, efficient HVAC systems, smart thermostats, and improved air sealing. Flexible living spaces designed to serve multiple purposes are also common, allowing homes to adapt as household needs change over time.
"Homeowners are looking at their properties differently in 2026," said Ralph Kunz of Copperhead Construction & Remodeling. "Rather than starting over somewhere new, many are investing in thoughtful updates that make their current homes more functional and comfortable for years to come. The key is careful planning that accounts for long-term goals, budget, and the existing condition of the home."
The company notes that similar patterns are emerging in commercial tenant improvements, where businesses are updating spaces to better serve customers and employees. Kunz added that quality craftsmanship and clear communication remain essential for larger projects. "Complex remodels and additions require a coordinated process from initial design through final finishes," he said. "Clear timelines and open communication help keep these projects on track."
Additional information about remodeling trends and services is available from Copperhead Construction & Remodeling services.

Keighley Invisalign Clear Angel Aligners Teeth Straightening Dentist Dr Carl Taylor Offering Consultations for Aesthetic Smiles at Taylored Dental Care

KEIGHLEY, UK - August 21, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Taylored Dental Care Keighley has opened consultation slots for patients interested in clear aligner treatments for teeth straightening. Dr Carl Taylor, Practice Owner and Dentist, highlighted the availability of both Invisalign and Angel Aligners for individuals seeking discreet orthodontic solutions. Appointments are now bookable for those considering whether clear aligners might suit their needs.
Invisalign and Angel Aligners are both clear aligner systems that use transparent, removable trays to gradually shift teeth into better positions. Each system works by applying controlled pressure to teeth through a series of custom-made trays, with each tray worn for a set period before switching to the next in the sequence. According to the practice, both Invisalign and Angel Aligners are indicated by their respective manufacturers for addressing certain alignment concerns including crowding and spacing issues. Suitability for specific bite irregularities depends on individual clinical assessment. The transparent material makes them far less noticeable than traditional metal braces, appealing to patients wanting a low-profile approach to teeth straightening.

The practice noted that Invisalign and Angel Aligners share similar principles but may differ in specific design features and treatment planning approaches. Both systems are removable, allowing patients to take them out for eating, drinking, and cleaning their teeth. This means fewer dietary restrictions during treatment, though the aligners need wearing for the recommended hours each day to achieve intended results. The choice between systems gets decided on a case-by-case basis, with recommendations based on individual smile goals and what each patient's teeth specifically need.
A 2019 study titled "A comparison of treatment effectiveness between clear aligner and fixed appliance therapies", published in BMC Oral Health and conducted in Beijing, China, examined outcomes across clear aligner therapy as a treatment category and fixed appliances. It should be noted that the research assessed clear aligners generally rather than validating any specific aligner brand. Researchers Ke Y, Zhu Y, and Zhu M found comparable effectiveness between the two approaches for certain tooth movements, though the study noted that fixed appliances showed advantages for some occlusal outcomes and more complex movements. The authors also acknowledged limitations in the available evidence quality. The study concluded that treatment selection should be based on each patient's individual clinical needs, reflecting the assessment approach taken at Taylored Dental Care Keighley.
Those curious about Invisalign and Angel Aligner treatment insights and unique treatment planning can also visit: https://tayloreddentalcare.co.uk/keighley/teeth-straightening/invisalign-angel-aligners/.
Consultations at Taylored Dental Care Keighley include a discussion about what the patient hopes to achieve through treatment. The dental team takes digital scans or impressions of the teeth, which get used to create a treatment plan showing how teeth are expected to move throughout the process. Patients have the opportunity to ask questions about treatment duration, the number of aligners they may need, and any other aspects of the procedure. The consultation also covers practical considerations such as how often aligners need changing and what to expect during regular monitoring appointments. Treatment duration varies depending on the complexity of each case, with some patients completing treatment in several months while others may require a longer timeframe.
Taylored Dental Care Keighley has made clear that support is available for nervous or anxious patients who may feel apprehensive about orthodontic treatment. The practice noted that concerns about dental procedures are common, and the team takes time to address worries and ensure patients feel comfortable throughout the process.
The broader range of teeth straightening treatments offered at Taylored Dental Care Keighley can be found at: https://tayloreddentalcare.co.uk/keighley/teeth-straightening/.
The announcement forms part of the practice's broader provision of orthodontic care for patients in Keighley and surrounding areas. Taylored Dental Care Keighley offers various teeth straightening treatments including fixed braces, ceramic braces, and Quick Straight Teeth alongside clear aligner systems. Fixed braces use brackets and wires to move teeth over time, while Quick Straight Teeth is a system designed to focus on the cosmetic alignment of the front teeth, typically used for cases where improvements to the visible smile are the primary concern. Treatment plans get discussed on an individual basis, with costs outlined clearly during the consultation stage.
According to the release, the availability of clear aligner consultations reflects patient demand for teeth straightening options that fit around daily routines. The practice has confirmed that suitability for both Invisalign and Angel Aligners gets determined through careful assessment. Factors such as the type and extent of misalignment, the patient's age, and the ability to comply with wearing requirements all influence which system gets recommended.

European Auto Repair Shop Relocates to New Service Facility

Hermosa Beach, California - August 21, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Luxury Motors of South Bay has relocated its European and German auto repair shop to 505 Pacific Coast Highway in Hermosa Beach, moving the business onto the coastal corridor that runs the length of the South Bay. The shop's phone number, technicians, and marque specialization carry over from its previous Torrance address, and the new site adds customer parking on site.

The new address sits a short drive from Manhattan Beach to the north and Redondo Beach to the south, with El Segundo, Palos Verdes, and Torrance reachable along the same corridor. Customers from the prior location continue to be served, and the phone line remains 310-504-0089. Downtown Hermosa Beach and Pier Avenue are within walking distance of the shop.
According to owner Shawn Baker, the move changed the address and the size of the space rather than the service. The same technicians, the same four primary marques, and the same inspect-before-quote process transferred to Pacific Coast Highway, and Baker says the larger floor gives the team more room to work per vehicle.
The shop specializes in European and German auto repair for Porsche, BMW, Audi, and Mercedes-Benz, and also services Maserati, Volkswagen, and Volvo. Its work covers brake systems, suspension components, cooling systems, oil leaks, electrical faults, transmission service, routine maintenance, and engine performance diagnostics. Each marque is serviced using the make-specific scan tools and factory diagnostic software written for it.

Across those makes the work stays make-specific. On BMW engines the shop regularly replaces oil filter housing gaskets, valve cover gaskets, and the electric water pumps that weaken with heat and mileage. Audi and Volkswagen models built on the shared 2.0T platform come in for intake-valve carbon cleaning, ignition coils, and PCV service. Porsche owners bring Cayenne, Macan, and 911 models in for oil service, coolant work, and suspension components, and Mercedes-Benz vehicles arrive for air suspension, electrical, and cooling repairs.
Oil service on these vehicles is not interchangeable, since each engine calls for a specific synthetic grade, fill volume, and filter, so the shop follows the manufacturer specification for the engine in front of it rather than a universal bulk oil. That scheduled work is detailed at luxurymotorssouthbay.com/routine-maintenance.
Diagnostic work accounts for a large share of what comes through the bays. The shop's stated approach is to isolate a fault to its root cause and confirm it against live module data before quoting a repair, a process it applies to persistent warning lights, intermittent electrical problems, and drivability complaints. That work is described at luxurymotorssouthbay.com/engine-diagnostics.

Every job begins with photo-documented findings and an itemized estimate, and no parts are ordered until the customer approves the work.
Service also extends to the drivetrain. Many German models run the ZF eight-speed automatic, which the shop maintains on a scheduled fluid and filter interval, while Audi and Volkswagen dual-clutch gearboxes get their own fluid interval and adaptation reset.
Baker is an ASE Certified Master Technician and is EPA certified. He is a U.S. Marine Corps veteran who worked in aircraft maintenance and a Universal Technical Institute honors graduate. He estimates he has serviced more than 20,000 vehicles across roughly two decades in the trade, a figure he describes as his own approximation drawn from his working history rather than a documented or audited total. Baker says the shop regularly sees brake, cooling, and suspension wear that he attributes to stop-and-go coastal traffic and salt air in its service area.
"The address changed and the work did not," said Shawn Baker, owner and ASE Certified Master Technician at Luxury Motors of South Bay. "Same crew, same tools, same four marques. We look at the car, show the customer photos of what we actually found, and quote it before anyone picks up a wrench."
The shop offers service in English and Spanish, along with concierge pickup and drop-off across the South Bay. Hours are Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Owners of Porsche, BMW, Audi, and Mercedes-Benz vehicles can find the new location, hours, and service list at luxurymotorssouthbay.com.


About Luxury Motors of South Bay Luxury Motors of South Bay is an independent European and German auto repair shop at 505 Pacific Coast Highway in Hermosa Beach, California, serving Porsche, BMW, Audi, and Mercedes-Benz owners across the South Bay. Founded in 2022 by ASE Certified Master Technician Shawn Baker, the shop pairs make-specific diagnostic tooling with photo-documented estimates and customer approval before any work begins.

Big EZ Renovations Publishes Decking Material Guide Addressing Humidity and Termite Durability Factors

NEW ORLEANS, LA - August 21, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Big EZ Renovations, a licensed residential and commercial renovation contractor, has published an educational guide comparing wood and composite decking for homeowners across the Greater New Orleans metro, citing year-round humidity, intense ultraviolet exposure, and one of the highest Formosan subterranean termite concentrations in the continental United States as conditions that change which material proves more economical over time.
The guide examines how the region's climate, classified as IECC Climate Zone 2A, affects each material differently. Average annual relative humidity above 70 percent, combined with summer temperatures that regularly exceed 95 degrees Fahrenheit, accelerates wood decay faster than most of the continental United States experiences. According to the guide, pressure-treated pine, the default choice for cost-conscious property owners, typically lasts 10 to 15 years before requiring full replacement, and that estimate assumes resealing every one to two years to maintain its chemical protection.
Capped composite decking performs differently under the same conditions. The guide reports that quality capped composite products resist moisture, rot, and surface mold, carry warranties ranging from 25 years to lifetime, and require only periodic cleaning rather than annual sealing and staining. It distinguishes between uncapped composite, an older category that can still develop mold in shaded, consistently wet conditions, and capped composite enclosed in a polymer shell that blocks moisture from reaching the wood-fiber core. Products with four-sided capping are identified as the stronger specification for sustained humidity.
The guide gives particular attention to the Formosan subterranean termite, which the LSU AgCenter identifies as heavily concentrated in the region. Formosan colonies can structurally compromise a wood deck within months, and the LSU AgCenter estimates the species causes roughly one billion dollars in property damage across the United States each year. Because composite boards contain no cellulose in their outer shell, termites cannot consume the deck surface, though the guide notes that the supporting structure of joists, posts, and ledger boards still requires proper treatment and periodic inspection.
Cost comparison forms a central section of the resource. Pressure-treated pine is listed at roughly 17 to 35 dollars per square foot installed, capped composite at 40 to 80 dollars, and tropical hardwood at 30 to 55 dollars. While composite costs more at installation, the guide explains that its 25-to-50-year lifespan and minimal maintenance typically make it less expensive than wood over a 25-year ownership window, during which a wood deck would likely require a full rebuild. For shorter-term owners working with tighter upfront budgets, the resource notes that pressure-treated wood remains a practical option with a predictable replacement cycle.
A spokesperson for Big EZ Renovations said the material question arises on nearly every deck consultation. "The right answer depends on the property's sun and moisture exposure, the owner's budget, and how long they intend to stay," the spokesperson said. "Our aim with this guide is to give homeowners the climate-specific information they need before they commit to a material, rather than relying on national comparisons that do not account for conditions here."


The guide also addresses permitting. Decks visible from the public right-of-way in neighborhoods governed by the Historic District Landmarks Commission require a Certificate of Appropriateness before work begins, separate from the standard building permits issued by parish authorities. Big EZ Renovations builds outdoor decks, roofing for commercial and residential properties across New Orleans, Metairie, Kenner, Slidell, and the surrounding parishes and coordinates permitting and material selection as part of each project. The full guide is available on the company's website.

MedRoots Releases Pelvic Pain, unPacked Episode Exploring CBD Muscle Cream and Everyday Muscle Comfort

WINDERMERE, FL - August 21, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
MedRoots, a physician-created CBD brand based in Windermere, Florida, has published a new episode of its Pelvic Pain, unPacked podcast that explores topical options for everyday muscle comfort. The company offers CBD Muscle Cream, a non-greasy topical cream that supports muscle comfort after activity, formulated under the medical oversight of Charity Hill, MD, a board-certified physiatrist. In the latest episode of the Pelvic Pain, unPacked podcast, MedRoots turns a plain-spoken conversation toward the products people reach for after a workout, a long shift, or time on their feet, and toward the questions listeners often ask about how topical personal-care products are made.
MedRoots' CBD Muscle Cream is formulated to support muscle comfort after activity, combining full-spectrum hemp CBD with cooling botanicals such as menthol and peppermint in a non-greasy base. The 2 oz jar contains 500mg of full-spectrum CBD and is manufactured to CBDTQM standards using U.S. organically grown hemp, with three rounds of testing that include two independent ISO-accredited third-party laboratories. The episode also explores gate control theory, a concept from sensory science that helps explain how the body registers cooling and warming sensations on the skin, giving listeners a plain-language look at the ideas behind a familiar shelf category rather than a set of instructions.
The conversation also turns to transdermal formats for people who prefer a wearable option. For that approach, MedRoots offers the Intensity Transdermal CBD Patch, a transdermal CBD patch with lidocaine for targeted, sustained topical comfort, available as a THC-free four-pack with each patch delivering 55mg of CBD alongside 4% lidocaine. The hosts describe reaching for these products not only after intense effort but as part of a steady routine, whether following a training session, time in the garden, or a long day on their feet. Throughout the episode, MedRoots keeps the focus on how these personal-care products fit into an ordinary day, describing them as everyday options for supporting muscle comfort after activity.
"So much of wellness happens quietly, after a long shift or a hard workout, when someone is simply trying to feel like themselves again," said Tamar Hill, co-founder and CEO of MedRoots. "We made this episode to talk plainly about the everyday options people reach for, and to give our community better information about what goes into a topical product and how to fit it into a daily routine." Dr. Hill, who reviews every MedRoots formula, spoke to the manufacturing behind the product. "My focus as medical director is the formulation itself, how it is made and what goes into it," said Charity Hill, MD, medical director and co-founder of MedRoots. "Our muscle cream is a non-greasy topical formulated to support muscle comfort after activity, produced to CBDTQM standards and tested by independent third-party laboratories, and that discipline is what I care about most."
MedRoots was founded in 2021, originally as Pacific Roots, and remains a sister-led, family-founded company. Tamar Hill serves as co-founder and CEO, Charity Hill, MD, as co-founder and medical director, and Brandon Manikowski as president and chief operating officer. The company describes its products as a plant-based approach to personal care, developed with direct medical-director oversight and manufactured in pharmaceutical-grade facilities.
MedRoots ships its full product line to all 50 U.S. states and Washington, D.C. and backs direct purchases with a 30-day money-back guarantee. The company also operates a wholesale practitioner channel serving medical doctors, naturopathic doctors, pelvic floor physical therapists, chiropractors, nurse practitioners, and pharmacists who look for plant-based personal-care products backed by third-party testing.


MedRoots, a physician-created CBD brand, offers CBD Muscle Cream and its broader line of personal-care and wellness products to consumers across the country. More information about the company and its full-spectrum topical products is available at medroots.com. MedRoots plans to continue its educational work through the Pelvic Pain, unPacked podcast, opening plain-spoken conversations about comfort, wellness, and the everyday questions its community cares about.

South Shore Basement Finishing Company Expands Service Area

QUINCY, MA - August 21, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
South Shore Basement Finishing Company has extended its residential and commercial basement finishing services into Pembroke, Massachusetts, adding the Plymouth County town to a footprint that already spans more than two dozen South Shore communities. The step gives Pembroke property owners a local source for basement design, remodeling, and waterproofing work that has often required contractors from neighboring towns.
The company works across the region south of Boston, serving communities that include Quincy, Weymouth, Hingham, Marshfield, Duxbury, and Plymouth. Pembroke sits within that corridor, and its addition brings the firm's full slate of lower-level services to the town rather than a narrower selection. The company describes the town as a logical fit for a market it was already reaching in adjacent areas.
Pembroke is a South Shore suburb of the Boston area, situated roughly halfway between Boston and Cape Cod, and recorded 18,361 residents in the 2020 census. The town is largely rural in character with pockets of suburban neighborhoods, and its median household income of about $120,000 in that census sat above the statewide figure. The community includes the Bryantville, North Pembroke, and East Pembroke neighborhoods, a mix that spans longtime residences and newer suburban development. Those conditions point to a base of owner-occupied homes where added below-grade living space is a frequent objective.
Finished basements have become a common way for New England homeowners to gain living space without the cost and permitting steps of a full above-grade addition. Below-grade work carries particular technical demands in the region, where seasonal groundwater and humidity can reach lower levels, and the expansion pairs finishing with moisture control on each project. That pairing is meant to address a recurring concern in coastal Plymouth County housing.
Basement conversions have drawn steady interest nationally as a route to added usable square footage, and finished lower levels commonly recover part of their cost at resale. In coastal Massachusetts, many houses combine older construction with high water tables, and contractors in the region increasingly treat drainage and vapor control as a baseline expectation rather than an upgrade. The Pembroke expansion follows that pattern by folding moisture management into every renovation the company books in the town.
Work available to Pembroke residents covers complete design and build projects, custom wall systems, flooring and lighting, window and egress installation, and the conversion of unfinished areas into bedrooms, bathrooms, home offices, media rooms, and entertainment spaces. Waterproofing and mold-resistant materials are treated as standard components rather than separate add-ons.
"The expansion gives Pembroke homeowners a single local contractor for basement finishing and waterproofing, which shortens timelines and keeps design and moisture control coordinated," said Susan Snow, owner of South Shore Basement Finishing Company. "Demand from the Pembroke area has grown steadily, and setting a defined presence there was a logical next step."
South Shore Basement Finishing Company was named a winner in the 2026 Quality Business Awards for basement renovation in the Quincy, Massachusetts market, a designation the company points to as it extends comparable standards to Pembroke. Its service area now reaches close to thirty communities across Plymouth and Norfolk counties, with Pembroke among the more recent additions.
Scheduling for Pembroke projects follows the same consultation and estimate process the company uses across its territory, starting with an on-site assessment of the space and its moisture conditions. Scope, materials, and timelines are set before work begins. Commercial lower-level projects in the town follow the same intake, giving business owners the same design and waterproofing coordination offered to households. The company states that the Pembroke rollout does not alter service standards in the communities it already covers.

GULLCO International Details Engineering Behind Its Submerged Arc Welding Machine

August 21, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
GULLCO International, a manufacturer of welding and cutting automation equipment, has released detailed engineering information on its submerged arc welding machine, the SAM® Submerged Arc Welding System. The disclosure outlines the mechanical and control components that allow the system to perform precision submerged arc and MIG welding across heavy industrial fabrication settings. The information was made available through the company's product documentation and is intended to give fabricators and distributors a clearer view of the equipment's design.
The SAM® system is built around GULLCO's MOGGY® trackless travel carriage platform, a self-contained welding unit that combines a heavy-duty friction drive mechanism with a microprocessor-based motor control system. The carriage, offered as Model GM-02-295, uses a positive chain drive across four rubber-tired wheels and a closed-loop tachometer feedback loop to maintain accurate, consistent travel speed during welding operations. This configuration is designed to support the steady, repeatable motion that submerged arc welding requires for consistent bead quality and weld penetration.
Motor control on the carriage is handled by GULLCO's low-voltage, 24-volt GSP microprocessor, which uses pulse width modulation to regulate travel speed. The control system is housed in a remote pendant box connected by an 8-foot control cable, giving operators a forward, stop, and reverse switch along with an infinitely variable four-turn speed potentiometer. An LED display shows travel speed in inches per minute or centimeters per minute, allowing operators to monitor and adjust settings without interrupting the weld pass. An interface cable assembly also allows the carriage to be controlled through a Miller HDC 1500 DX power source, and a manual clutch enables free-wheeling movement when the carriage is repositioned by hand.
The carriage's mounting architecture is intended to accommodate a range of shop configurations. The base unit includes a main mounting mast and handle assembly, a mounting arm for a single wire reel, and quick jaw mast clamp assemblies. Vertical and horizontal manual four-inch by four-inch slides, built with hardened ground rods and sleeve bearings, allow for fine positioning adjustments, while a control support arm and a set of adjustable guide roll arms help maintain alignment along the weld joint. The system operates on 42, 115, or 230-volt single-phase, 50/60 Hz AC power, giving fabricators flexibility depending on available shop power.
GULLCO also offers two additional carriage configurations built on the same friction-drive platform. The GM-02-275 model is designed for shops that supply their own single submerged arc package, while the GM-02-250 model includes a 17-inch by 22-inch aluminum mounting plate for customer-supplied wire feeders. Both share the same carriage specifications as the GM-02-295, giving fabricators options based on the welding equipment already in use in their facilities.
"The engineering behind this platform reflects decades of feedback from welding operations that need reliable, repeatable travel control on heavy plate and structural work," said Jeff Zook, Director at GULLCO International. "Submerged arc welding depends heavily on consistent travel speed and stable positioning, and the carriage was engineered specifically to hold that consistency across long weld passes."
Zook added that the modular design of the carriage system was a deliberate response to the variety of welding packages already installed in fabrication shops. "Fabricators are not always working with the same wire feeder or power source from one job to the next," Zook said. "Building a carriage that can integrate with different submerged arc and MIG configurations gives shops more flexibility without requiring a full equipment replacement."

New Cobb County Guide Explains Office Lunch Catering Costs and Ordering Options

August 21, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Businesses planning workplace meals in Cobb County have a new resource for understanding the factors that can affect office catering costs.
AMARA Subway has published an office lunch catering cost guide covering per-person pricing, order sizes, lead times, meal formats, pickup and delivery requirements, and budgeting for recurring workplace lunches. The resource is designed to help office managers and employees responsible for ordering meals understand how group size, service requirements, delivery needs and ordering frequency can influence an overall catering budget.

According to the company, individually packaged box lunches start at $6.50 per person and include a Subway sub from the catering menu, an individual bag of chips and a cookie. Box lunch catering requires a minimum order of 10 meals and at least 24 hours’ notice.
“Office lunch planning often involves more than choosing food for a single meeting,” said Alex Laldin, marketing director at the company. “Businesses also have to think about attendance, frequency, delivery and how the meals will actually be distributed. Those decisions affect the overall catering budget.”
Group size is one of the planning considerations addressed in the guide. While box lunch orders can begin at 10 meals, the same format can also accommodate larger workplace groups. Businesses are encouraged to confirm attendance before placing an order and consider whether additional meals may be necessary to account for changes in the expected headcount.
Individually packaged meals can be useful when employees are eating at their desks, attending meetings on different schedules or receiving meals without a central serving station. Vegetarian choices are available through the catering menu, and customers are encouraged to discuss dietary or ingredient-related requests when placing an order.
The individual format may also simplify meal distribution for routine team meetings, working lunches and other workplace situations where separate meals are more practical than a shared serving arrangement. This can be a consideration for offices where employees have limited lunch periods or where meetings take place in different areas of a building.
The guide also helps businesses identify situations where individually packaged box lunches may not be the appropriate catering format. Box lunches do not include shared serving trays, serving equipment or on-site setup. Events requiring hot entrees, multiple courses, on-site staff or formal table service may therefore be better suited to a full-service caterer or another catering format.
Understanding these differences can help businesses match the catering format to the type of event being planned. A routine staff meeting may have different food and service requirements from a formal company function, client event or workplace celebration requiring more extensive meal service.
Recurring workplace meals receive additional attention in the resource. AMARA Subway uses the example of a monthly lunch for a 25-person team to demonstrate how repeated orders affect an annual food budget rather than evaluating catering solely on the price of a single event. Looking at catering expenses over the course of a year can give businesses a broader understanding of the cost associated with maintaining a regular employee lunch schedule.
Businesses that regularly provide meals for weekly or monthly meetings can also discuss standing catering arrangements with AMARA Subway. The company presents recurring orders as another consideration for organizations developing annual meal budgets and planning regular workplace schedules.
Lead time is another factor addressed in the guide. AMARA Subway requires at least 24 hours’ notice for box lunch catering orders. Businesses are encouraged to consider the ordering deadline alongside the expected headcount, meal preferences and pickup or delivery requirements. Addressing those details in advance can help organizers establish what is needed before the scheduled workplace lunch.
Delivery is available for catering orders totaling at least $250. Smaller catering orders can be picked up through the company’s six Subway restaurants across Cobb County. These options give businesses the ability to consider both the size of the order and transportation needs when planning a meeting or recurring lunch.
The guide brings together information about ordering requirements, group sizes, meal formats, delivery and pickup options, and budgeting examples in one resource. Its purpose is to help workplace planners review the primary factors that can influence catering expenses before choosing a meal format for an upcoming office event.
AMARA Subway operates locations serving Acworth, Kennesaw, Marietta and Powder Springs. The family-owned restaurant group provides office lunch and group catering through its local Subway restaurants, including individually packaged meals and party platters. Its six locations across West and North Cobb County offer pickup for catering orders, with qualifying delivery also available.

Group Airport Transportation Demand Rises Across British Columbia as Corporate Travel and Event Sectors Expand

August 21, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Bookings for private shuttle and limousine services to Vancouver International Airport have increased as organizations resume in-person meetings and conferences.
Demand for private group transportation to and from Vancouver International Airport has risen over the past year, driven by a recovery in corporate travel and an increase in large-scale events across the Lower Mainland. KJ Limousine Services Inc., a Richmond-based ground transportation company serving the Vancouver region and the Whistler corridor, has reported increased requests for multi-passenger airport transfers, executive event transportation, and corporate fleet bookings. The company has observed that group bookings now represent a growing share of its overall reservation volume compared with individual trip requests, and has adjusted its fleet and scheduling to accommodate the shift in demand.
The Vancouver Airport Authority reported that YVR handled more than 24 million passengers in 2024, approaching pre-pandemic volumes, with international traffic showing the strongest recovery. The authority's annual traffic summary noted that transpacific routes and connections to the United States accounted for the largest share of growth, with December 2024 marking the busiest single month since early 2020. The increase in passenger volume has been accompanied by growth in ground transportation demand, particularly for services that accommodate groups traveling together for conferences, weddings, and corporate retreats, which require coordinated pickup and drop-off logistics.
In a statement, a representative from KJ Limousine Services said that the company has observed a shift in booking patterns toward larger group transfers, with organizations increasingly requesting multi-vehicle deployments for event arrivals and departures rather than scheduling individual trips. The company operates a fleet that includes sedans, SUVs, stretch limousines, and mini-coaches, serving airport transfers, corporate events, weddings, and custom group itineraries across the Lower Mainland. The company has expanded its fleet capacity over the past year to handle larger group bookings, adding additional vehicles to accommodate the increase in multi-passenger requests from corporate clients and event organizers.
British Columbia's tourism sector has reported steady growth in the meetings, conventions, and incentives market, with Vancouver hosting several major industry conferences in 2024 and 2025. The expansion of the Vancouver Convention Centre and new hotel developments in the city core have supported the growth of the corporate events sector, which in turn drives demand for group transportation providers. Destination Vancouver reported that convention-related bookings for 2025 are projected to exceed 2024 levels, based on confirmed event schedules and hotel occupancy data, pointing to another year of heightened demand for ground transport services that can handle simultaneous group arrivals and departures.


For ground transportation operators, the combination of rising air travel volumes and a strong events calendar has created sustained demand across both the corporate and leisure segments. The Whistler corridor continues to represent a significant portion of transportation bookings, with groups traveling between YVR and the resort destination during both the summer tourism season and the winter ski period. Operators serving the airport-to-Whistler route have noted that corporate incentive travel and executive retreats have been a particular source of growth in the past year, with multi-vehicle bookings becoming more common for large corporate groups traveling to the resort area for conferences and team events. The corridor's year-round tourism activity, with ski season running from November through April and summer travel peaking between June and September, provides consistent demand for group transportation services across both peak periods.

Straight 8 Barbers Announces First Annual Back-to-School Free Haircut Day

VERNON, BC - August 21, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Free walk-in haircuts for Kindergarten through Grade 12 students will be offered Aug. 27 and 28, with food bank donations encouraged at participating Straight 8 locations.
Straight 8 Barbers is giving local students a fresh start to the school year with its First Annual Back-to-School Free Haircut Day in Kamloops and Vernon. Free haircuts will be available to students from Kindergarten through Grade 12 at all four Straight 8 barber shops over two days in late August.

Straight 8 Northshore will host Free Haircut Day on Thursday, Aug. 27, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Straight 8 Valleyview, Straight 8 Aberdeen and Straight 8 Vernon will hold their events on Friday, Aug. 28, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
All four events are walk-in only, with no pre-booked appointments. Free haircuts will be offered on a first-come, first-served basis during event hours, subject to barber availability and capacity.
With the theme “Fresh Cuts. Big Smiles. Ready for School.”, the event was created as a way for Straight 8 Barbers to give back to the communities it serves while helping students head into the new school year looking fresh and feeling confident.
Straight 8 hopes the event will become an annual community tradition that families can look forward to each August.
“We see families coming through our shops every day, and we wanted to find a meaningful way to give something back,” said Fava, founder of Straight 8 Barbers. “Going back to school is a big day for kids, and sometimes a fresh haircut gives them that little extra confidence. We hope families come out, have some fun and help us make this something we can do every year.”
No purchase is necessary to participate in the Back-to-School Free Haircut Day. Eligible students can simply visit the participating Straight 8 location during event hours and check in with the team. Because appointments will not be reserved in advance, families are encouraged to arrive early and be prepared for possible wait times during busy periods.
After their haircut, students can sit in the Straight 8 race car for a back-to-school photo in front of branded event signage. A photographer will also be on site to capture photos during the event. Parents and guardians may take their own photos as well, and any photography involving children will be handled with parent or guardian permission. Families may choose to share their photos on social media and tag Straight 8, but social sharing is optional.
The Back-to-School Free Haircut Day will also support local food banks. Straight 8 is encouraging families and community members to bring a non-perishable food donation when they visit a participating shop. Donations collected at the Kamloops locations will support the Kamloops Food Bank, while donations collected at the Vernon location will support the Vernon Community Foodbank. Donations are appreciated but are not required to receive a free haircut.
Suggested donations include canned foods, pasta, rice, cereal, peanut butter, soup and other non-perishable items. Bringing a food donation is encouraged but is not required for a student to receive a free haircut.
The combination of free haircuts and food bank donations allows the event to support the community in two ways: helping students prepare for the first day of school and collecting food for families who may need additional support.

Oregon Derma Center Announces Physician-Led Aesthetic Services

MCMINNVILLE, OR - August 21, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Oregon Derma Center, a naturopathic aesthetic medicine practice in McMinnville, Oregon, now offers physician-led cosmetic and regenerative treatments for residents of the Willamette Valley region. The practice, founded and operated by Dr. Jason Black, ND, a Board-Certified Naturopathic Physician, provides cosmetic injectables, laser therapeutics, RF microneedling, hormone therapy, and medical weight management from its location at 829 NE Highway 99W, Suite B.
Oregon Derma Center operates under a direct-physician model in which every treatment decision is made by Dr. Black rather than delegated to a technician or aesthetician. In many medical aesthetic practices, a physician sees patients at intake and then hands treatment execution to a licensed aesthetician or nurse injector. At Oregon Derma Center, Dr. Black performs the assessments, reads the anatomy, and administers or directly supervises each procedure. That structure changes the quality of treatment planning because the person who decides what to do and the person who does it are the same.
The practice uses named technology platforms including the Fotona 4D dual-wavelength laser system, which works across four separate tissue depths in a single session to address surface texture, skin laxity, and volume loss simultaneously. The Scarlet SRF radiofrequency microneedling system combines microneedling — a process that creates controlled micro-channels in the skin to stimulate the skin's own repair response — with radiofrequency energy that delivers heat to the deeper dermal layer, supporting collagen and elastin production without damaging the surface. Additional services include Agnes RF treatments for under-eye concerns, PDO thread lifts (which use dissolvable sutures to lift and reposition tissue), AquaFirme medical facials, laser hair removal, laser tattoo removal, and laser scar treatments.
The practice also provides services outside of traditional aesthetics. BioTE hormone pellet therapy addresses hormonal imbalances through small pellets inserted beneath the skin that release bioidentical hormones steadily over three to six months. Semaglutide-based medical weight management is supervised directly by Dr. Black and includes ongoing monitoring rather than a prescription-and-dismiss approach. PRP therapy for hair restoration uses the patient's own platelet-rich plasma, drawn from a blood sample and reintroduced at the scalp, to support hair follicle health. NightLase, a non-invasive laser treatment, works to reduce snoring by gently tightening the tissue at the back of the throat.
Dr. Black's naturopathic training shapes how the practice approaches every patient. Rather than addressing each cosmetic concern in isolation, he considers hormonal balance, inflammation, and overall wellness before recommending any treatment. Consultations begin with a full assessment of the patient's anatomy, health history, goals, and budget. No treatment is recommended until that assessment is complete, and every plan reflects the individual patient rather than a fixed menu. That approach means some patients leave with a different recommendation than they arrived expecting — and often a better outcome because of it.
"My approach has always been to slow down, ask the right questions, and build a plan that fits the person sitting in front of me," said Dr. Jason Black, ND, Founder of Oregon Derma Center. "Every face is different. Every body is different. The treatments we recommend should reflect that, and the results should look like you on your best day, not like someone else."
Oregon Derma Center accepts new patients and does not require a referral to schedule an initial consultation. The practice is located at 829 NE Highway 99W, Suite B, and is open to patients throughout the Willamette Valley region. Patients interested in learning more or scheduling a consultation may visit the website or call (971) 229-2185.

Federal Steel Systems Reaffirms Approach After New Colorado Building Code

ENGLEWOOD, CO - August 21, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Federal Steel Systems said it is reaffirming its commitment to all-inclusive, permit-ready building packages following the July 1, 2026 effective date of Colorado's Model Low Energy and Carbon Code, which became the state's new minimum building code standard for new construction. The company said the update changes baseline requirements for commercial and residential projects across its home state, including the metal buildings it manufactures.
The Model Low Energy and Carbon Code, published by the Colorado Energy Office, requires new construction to meet updated energy efficiency, electric readiness, and solar readiness standards. Under the new baseline, cities and counties across Colorado must adopt at least the code's requirements whenever they update local building codes, replacing a prior standard that gave jurisdictions more flexibility in how aggressively they pursued efficiency and electrification requirements. The Colorado Energy Office has described the change as part of a multi-year effort to align local building codes with the state's broader climate goals, and homebuilder groups had previously urged the office to adopt the underlying energy code without additional state-level modifications.
For metal building projects specifically, the updated baseline affects requirements such as insulation performance, electrical rough-in for future EV charging and solar equipment, and roof design that can accommodate a later solar installation, even for buildings that are not solar-equipped at the time of construction. Builders that rely on skeleton kits or a la carte accessory pricing may find that bringing a project into compliance after the fact adds cost and delay that was not reflected in the original quote. Local jurisdictions are expected to phase in enforcement of the new baseline as they update their own building codes over the coming months, meaning the specific requirements a given project faces will depend on when and where it is permitted.
Federal Steel Systems said the update reinforces the reasoning behind its practice of including insulation, panel types, and other accessories as standard components of its quoted building packages rather than optional add-ons. The company, which designs each building to meet or exceed local code requirements and provides permit-ready stamped engineering drawings with every project, said its process already accounts for the kind of code changes represented by the new statewide standard. The company added that customers planning a project in Colorado or any other state should confirm with their builder whether a quote already reflects current code requirements or whether compliance updates will be billed separately once construction is underway.
"Code requirements change more often than people expect, and the buildings we design today have to hold up under whatever the local jurisdiction is enforcing by the time they are permitted. That is why we do not treat insulation and electrical rough-in as extras," said Nick Guinn, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Federal Steel Systems.
Federal Steel Systems is a Colorado-based manufacturer of custom-engineered steel and metal buildings, founded in 2009 by industry veterans responding to widespread customer dissatisfaction with deceptive pricing and incomplete packages in the metal building sector. Headquartered in Englewood, Colorado, the company distributes buildings nationally and designs them to meet or exceed local codes in high-snowfall, high-wind, and seismic zones. Federal Steel Systems reports zero structural failures across its delivered buildings, offers a free 3D building design tool, and operates an Authorized Builder Program for contractors.

Gearstar Builds Yank Converters In-House, Dyno-Tests Every Build

AKRON, OH - August 21, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Gearstar Performance Transmissions now builds every torque converter that ships behind its custom performance automatics in-house, under the Yank Performance Converters brand, and runs every completed transmission and converter package on a transmission dynamometer before it is crated. Converter production and final assembly share one floor in Akron, Ohio.
For builders running LS swaps, restomods, pro-touring cars, and street/strip programs, that means every Gearstar arrives specified for the combination it is going behind, and it arrives after it has already been run. Founder Zack Farah frames the work this way: "What we're building are horsepower transferring systems. Whether it's a Ford, GM, or Mopar transmission going behind a mild small-block or a blown big-block, we approach each transmission as if it was going into our own personal car."


Platform coverage spans the GM 4L60E, 4L65E, 4L80E, and 700R4, the Ford 4R70W, C4, C6, AOD, and 6R80, and the Mopar 727 and NAG1, each built with the hard parts and clutch packs its target power level calls for. Because Gearstar builds to order, there is no shelf stock to pull from. "We are a totally custom shop, so we don't keep any product on the shelf," Farah said. "We don't focus on meeting any quotas. We focus on quality."
Assembly is assigned to a single technician, who carries the build from case prep through crating rather than passing it down a line. That technician stays with the unit after it ships, answering the tech line when the customer calls during installation. Gearstar states the arrangement on its homepage as one transmission, one builder, from start to finish.
The torque converter is where most performance automatics either come together or come apart. Gearstar acquired Yank Performance Converters in 2022 and moved production from Reno, Nevada, to Akron, Ohio. Yank is now the converter-building brand behind every Gearstar automatic, built under the same roof.
Yank converters are built to manufacturer dimensions for performance applications rather than stock replacement duty, in non-lockup and single- or multi-disc lockup configurations across a range of stall speeds. Building in-house means the converter is matched to the customer's transmission, engine, and stall target before dyno testing. Through the Summit Racing distribution lineup, that pairing shows up in the crate as a Yank billet torque converter included with every Gearstar automatic.
Verification happens on the shop floor rather than in the customer's driveway. Each assembled unit, matched converter installed, goes onto one of the company's transmission dynos for the equivalent of 100 miles under varying loads and speeds, where line pressures, shift points, downshifts, converter stall speed, and lock-up operation are read and corrected before the unit is signed off.
"Our dynamometer simulates the stress and drag that the transmission and converter package will experience in the customer's vehicle," Farah said. Testing every unit means Gearstar can confirm the package is right before it leaves the facility "instead of using the customer's car as a testbed."
What ships is a driveline package rather than a bare transmission. Crated through American Powertrain, it carries the transmission, its matched Yank billet torque converter, transmission fluid, a trans cooler, bellhousing bolts, and torque converter bolts. Workmanship and parts are warranted for 3 years and unlimited miles on 2wd units, and 1 year and unlimited miles on 4x4 units, from the date of shipment.
About Gearstar Performance Transmissions: Founded by Zack Farah in 2001 in Akron, Ohio, Gearstar Performance Transmissions hand-builds custom high-performance automatic transmissions for GM, Ford, and Mopar applications, and builds its torque converters in-house under the Yank Performance Converters brand. Every unit is assembled by one master technician, tested for the equivalent of 100 miles on a transmission dyno, and backed by a 3-year unlimited-mile warranty on 2wd units and a 1-year unlimited-mile warranty on 4x4 units. Learn more at gearstar.com.
About Yank Performance Converters: Yank Performance Converters builds non-lockup and lockup torque converters for performance automatic applications. Acquired by Gearstar in 2022 and moved from Reno, Nevada, to Akron, Ohio, Yank converters are built to manufacturer dimensions and a higher performance standard and are matched and dyno-tested with the transmission they ship behind.

Survivors of Abuse NY Updates Doctor Sexual Abuse Resources

NEW YORK, NY - August 21, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Survivors of Abuse NY has updated its informational resources concerning doctor sexual abuse and related civil claims, with the materials addressing legal issues that can arise when alleged misconduct occurs in medical settings. The New York City-based resource, created by attorney Thomas Giuffra, Esq., is intended to provide information about civil procedures, professional oversight, and factors that may affect claims involving physicians and medical institutions.
The update focuses on circumstances in which alleged sexual misconduct occurs during medical examinations, treatment, or other interactions between physicians and patients. It also explains that allegations involving medical professionals can raise separate questions involving professional conduct, institutional supervision, patient records, and civil liability.

“Medical abuse matters can involve both individual conduct and questions about the responsibilities of institutions that employ or supervise medical professionals,” said Thomas Giuffra, Esq., attorney and creator of Survivors of Abuse NY. “The updated materials are intended to explain the legal framework surrounding these cases and the types of records and procedures that may become relevant during a civil claim.”
Doctor sexual abuse allegations can involve conduct that a patient contends occurred outside the legitimate scope of an examination or treatment. Civil cases may require review of medical records, appointment histories, communications, institutional policies, and other documentation that provides context concerning the physician-patient interaction.
Medical institutions maintain policies governing professional conduct, reporting procedures, supervision, and patient care. When a civil claim involves both a physician and an institution, the legal analysis can include questions about what the institution knew, what information was available to responsible personnel, and what actions were taken before or after an allegation was reported.
Professional disciplinary proceedings and civil lawsuits are separate processes. A complaint involving a licensed physician may result in review by a professional licensing or regulatory authority, while a civil lawsuit addresses legal claims and remedies available through the court system.
The updated doctor abuse information also discusses evidence that may be examined when evaluating an allegation. Relevant material can vary by case and may include medical documentation, scheduling records, correspondence, internal complaints, witness information, and policies that were in effect when the alleged conduct occurred.
New York civil claims are also governed by filing deadlines that depend on the circumstances of the case. The applicable period can be affected by factors including the date of the alleged conduct, the age of the person at the time, the identity of potential defendants, and legislation governing claims arising from sexual abuse.
Determining whether a claim remains eligible for filing therefore requires examination of the facts and the law applicable to the particular circumstances. General information about filing deadlines does not establish whether an individual matter can proceed, because different legal provisions may apply to different defendants and factual situations.
Civil litigation involving alleged doctor sexual abuse can include claims against an individual practitioner and, in some circumstances, claims involving a hospital, medical practice, clinic, or other organization. The legal basis for an institutional claim depends on the relationship between the parties, the alleged conduct, available evidence, and the duties established under applicable law.
The litigation process can involve document collection, pleadings, discovery, witness testimony, expert analysis, motions, settlement discussions, and trial proceedings. Not every matter follows the same sequence, and the procedural history of a case can depend on the defendants, available records, disputed facts, and rulings made by the court.
Survivors of Abuse NY is an informational website created by Thomas Giuffra, Esq., who is licensed to practice law in New York. The site addresses several categories of sexual abuse litigation and publishes information about civil claims, legal procedures, institutional responsibility, and issues that can arise when allegations involve professionals or organizations.
The organization’s New York City office is located at 551 5th Avenue, 29th Floor. Its informational materials address matters involving doctors as well as allegations associated with other institutional and professional environments, while identifying the content as attorney advertising where required.

Additional information about the organization and its published legal resources is available through the media room. The materials are provided for general informational purposes, and the circumstances and legal requirements associated with individual civil claims can differ.

This complaint must articulate valid causes of action and contain sufficient detail about the allegations. Following the filing, the defendant will respond with an answer or a motion to dismiss. The case then progresses through stages of discovery, potential motions for summary judgment, and possibly a trial if the facts are disputed. Settlement discussions can occur at any stage to avoid further litigation."
