As part of Valor Roofing’s Raise the Roof program, US Army Veteran, SGT George Welch received a free roof on his home in Edgewater, MD. SGT Welch is 73 years old and was an Army Military Policeman (31B), as well as a Gunner on a Helicopter Gunship. His platoon was involved in the Battle of Saigon in which they were trapped in an alleyway. Unfortunately, a few of his platoon members did not survive. “When we consider a Veteran for the Raise the Roof Program, it is important to not only establish a need, but to ensure we recognize the Veteran for their dedication to our country,” said Al Kincaid, Founder of Raise the Roof.“ SGT Welch exemplifies the bravery and heroism we have come to expect from our servicemen and women. Furthermore, SGT Welch deserves a roof that is sturdy and safe. His current home desperately needs something that we can provide. It is our duty as grateful Americans to do our part.” Living in Edgewater, Maryland for the last 41 years has been a blessing for SGT Welch, but more importantly, for the community that surrounds him. SGT Welch is a cancer survivor, but that doesn’t limit his ability to walk his beloved dogs and get his daily exercise in. This is wonderful news for the neighboring K-9’s, as they all have grown accustom to sneaking a dog treat from his pockets — purposefully — full of delicious snacks. “SGT Welch was flabbergasted when we arrived. Most Veterans are very humble and do not believe they deserve recognition for their service,” said Will Fisher, Program and Brand Manager at Valor, “After we saw his reaction, we took a moment to show respect. The last thing we wanted was to overwhelm him even more. That is just the type of guy he is; humble and prideful.” The Raise the Roof program was created by Valor Roofing to give back to service disabled veterans in need, especially Veterans of Foreign Wars such as WW2, Korean War and Vietnam War. Veteran recipients are nominated by their community through Valor Roofing’s radio partners 93.1 WPOC, 98.7 WMZQ, 105.7 The Fan, and 100.7 The Bay. With hundreds of applications to choose from, Valor Roofing selects four veterans a year, one per quarter, to receive a new roof. In less than three years, the program has donated 11 roofs, a value of $132,000. Through their partnership with Operation Second Chance and Flags of Valor (FOV), each recipient also receives a custom wooden flag, hand-built by veterans.

You will feel asleep cradled in the arms of VASCA collection. It takes inspiration from the long summer days, when you are so tired that the only thing you would do is to be rocked by the light of the moon. The weavings of the furnitures' structure remind you of the cord of an hammock childhood.

Regardless of the length of your trip abroad, you should know that packing is an essential step of your stay. This goes doubly so when it comes to students, so you must always keep a few things in mind when you’re getting ready, such as what you need to take. The following list from https://mcessay.com/write-my-essay/ will provide you with some useful tips on what you must do to have a trouble-free packing experience: You should never be extra picky about your toiletries and personal hygiene products, but you should have a small supply of it if you have a favorite product. Face wash, shampoos and conditioners as well as other products may not be available as the same brands in the new place, so have a spare at least. Always make sure you have your liquids sealed in a plastic bag to avoid issues with airport security. Make sure you pack some weather-appropriate clothing as part of your luggage. The last thing you’ll want to do is look for clothes in the new location if the climate is extreme, compared to your point of origin. You should look into the weather ahead of time so you can pack accordingly to avoid issues with it. Use a backpack or a duffel bag that suits the airline requirements so you can haul your luggage with greater ease once you’re off the airport. This will help you be more mobile, while at the same time allowing you a choice between walking on foot without dragging luggage and using a cab or public transport. Prepare a few international adapters, so you won’t have any issues powering your electronics at the new location. Different countries use different types of plugs, so you must make sure you have what you need. The last thing you’ll want to do is getting stuck in a foreign country without a chance to use your tech. Prepare a list of things you must do during the semester so you won’t have to deal with the organizational aspects of it. You can start with a checklist, keeping it in a place where you’ll be able to see on a regular basis. You will need the preparation to ensure you do things right and on time. Take at least two pairs of good walking shoes along, as well as your normal shoes. This will help you greatly if you need to walk around different towns or cities. Not all places have the same policy when it comes to sidewalks and public areas, so having a few pairs of good, comfortable shoes will go a long way. Taking a cross-shoulder bag alongside your luggage will be a very comfortable option when it comes to urban exploration, travel and study. Its hard to rip off of you, easy to carry and also easy to use. Make sure you keep an eye on it from time to time though, as there’s always the possibility of meeting would-be thieves.

Eclectic home design photo in New York

This project was completed for a client who recently moved from a California mansion to a Georgia penthouse in order to be closer to family. It was a huge down size so it was important for our design team to help obtain that same grand appeal that the client was accustomed to, within a significantly smaller home. We created an open space plan that would allow for entertaining many guests at once. With proper scale in consideration, we chose to use large furniture that would make up the living room and dining space to reinforce that grand effect. Lending to this concept we hung drapery higher than the window frames and a bold ceiling fixture in order to compliment the height of the ceiling. Along with these accommodations we utilized the clients existing collection of eclectic wall art to fill the bare walls. In the end we were able to create a space that did not feel foreign to our client, but rather like home.
