A BSP Advisory on Phishing and Spoofing!

And now... Here is a PSA from BSP brought to us by Robinsons Bank.


Last year saw a lot of compromised accounts. We need to be more vigilant and critical. I hope it won't happen to anyone anymore. Do you have any tips to prevent fraudsters from getting our private and sensitive information?

Human Nature Acne Defense Solution Gel

The common misconception is that pimples break out during the awkward teenage stage. I am in my 30's and pimples still appear randomly. When that happens, it goes to show that my face is really oily or there's bacteria. It also gets annoying! It's painful and a woman in her midlife having zits is not a nice sight to behold.

I haven't yet found the perfect facial wash to prevent that. But, I did discover a product that makes zits more manageable.



The Human Nature Acne Defense is a wonder product that dries up acne breakouts in 3-5 days. I can feel my skin tightening and the pimples becoming smaller, then eventually drying up. I have to be religious in applying it, though, or else it will take longer than a week. The affected area tingles and then after a few hours, the pimple becomes smaller. Eventually, only a scab will be left. I suggest not removing this with your nail so that the skin will not scar. I made this mistake and I could still see a light and faded brown spot.

It's a solution gel that I dab (it should not be rubbed!) on my pimples after I clean my face. The product's consistency is viscous. It doesn't drip when applied on the face and yet it spreads easily on large areas. It comes in a 20g pump bottle which I find easy to use. I just have to figure out how to get the last drop when it's almost empty. The packaging is simple. There's cardboard with a round hole on the bottom and there's another on the top to hold the bottle in place to avoid it rolling around in the box since the size is perfect for traveling.

It smells like herbal medicine at first, but the scent is not overpowering. I don't notice it after a few seconds.

It is made with tea tree oil that has antibacterial properties. Human Nature is a brand that manufactures natural products that are free from harmful alcohol, SLS/SLES, synthetic fragrances, parabens, etc. 

The skin absorbs 60% of topical products, that's why I am relieved that this product is 100% natural. 

I would highly recommend you defend your face from pimples using Human Nature's Acne Defense.

Safety Matting is Extremely Important

Safety Matting is Extremely Important

Safety is of prime importance in any type of facility, whether it is industrial, commercial, businesses, schools, restaurants, hotels and motels, nursing or assisted living homes, warehouses, fitness centers, gyms, walkways, entrances, playgrounds, wet areas, and other locations which are heavily used and require the addition of a preventive measure.



Why Are Floor Mats So Needed?

Floor mats are among the safety necessities required in order to protect workers, visitors, and the floors themselves. AntiFatigue mats keep workers’ legs and feet comfortable and cut down on absences from work caused by the resultant aches and pains from having to do a lot of standing. In addition, non-slip mats reduce slip and fall injuries by both workers and customers who come to the business or facility.

What Types of Matting Are Available?

More than 30 years of first-rate experience in the industry learning about the requirements to accommodate a safe environment has resulted in a very wide selection of high quality durable and affordable matting products. Competitive prices are maintained, especially with one choice being recycled rubber mats.

Manufacturing

Combining sales with the added benefit of actually manufacturing many of the mats results in being able to keep pricing down for customers who have to operate within a predetermined budget. Examples of such mats are Grip Rock, Super G, Grip Rock-Freezer, and Brite Trac slip resistant matting.

Warranty

Always offered is at least a standard one-year warranty against any manufacturer's defects on all products, and some products have an even longer warranty.

Assistance

Utilizing JCH International in Rome, Georgia, and its knowledgeable and friendly sales staff will assist you in the proper product and quantity selection that is right for your particular purposes.

You can get quick immediate delivery by using products in stock, or you can get help designing a logo or other unique or unusually-sized mat if you are willing to wait for your order to be completed according to your directions.. You can also obtain free samples to assist in the selection of the many colors and complete line of products.

4 Ways Your Family Benefits From Radon Mitigation

There are many different hazards that you need to watch out for when it comes to your home and one of them is radon. If you are not familiar with radon then do not feel out of place as it is not a common topic among many people. By visiting the websites of companies such as SWAT Environmental and following the prompt to click here, you can get more information on radon mitigation and find out the many ways your family can benefit from the mitigation process.



Increase The Value Of Your Home

Many states are starting to require radon testing prior to the approval of any mortgage, which means that your home's value on the market could be affected if radon mitigation has not already been done. You can get more for your home and sell your home faster when you take the proactive steps to get radon testing and mitigation done by a professional organization.

Protect Your Family's Health

Radon is a serious issue that can lead to health problems if it is not contained. The process for detecting and taking care of any radon problems is very simple, which means that you can protect your family from harm by taking the simple step of bringing in a professional radon mitigation organization.

Protect Your Guests

Any family member and friend who regularly visit or stay at your house are subject to your home's environment. A responsible homeowner recognizes the need to protect friends and loved ones by getting some simple radon testing done to see if there is a radon problem in the home. The solution to the problem is equally as simple when you trust a professional mitigation organization.

Clean Your Drinking Water

Radon is an intrusive substance that can even get into your drinking water if it is not checked. A thorough investigation by a professional radon mitigation company will determine if there is an issue with your drinking water, and then the issue can be dealt with immediately.

You put up a smoke detector to protect your family from fire and a CO2 detector to protect your family from harmful fumes. Now you can complete the protection process by bringing in a professional radon mitigation company to test your home for radon and take the necessary steps to mitigate the problem if necessary.

Tips For Protecting The Home During Vacation

Crimes against the home are among the most common crimes that occur in the United States. In fact, one home robbery occurs every 14.6 seconds according to statistics listed by the Washington Post. Thieves gain entry for burglary by going through the garage, windows and the front door. Many accidents occur while the family of victims is on vacation. Burglars find out that the family is away using a number strategies, and then they hit while the homeowners are out of the area. The following are some tips that homeowners can use to avoid a burglary or robbery while they are away on vacation:



Alert the Neighbors

One thing that homeowners can do to provide themselves with additional protection is notify the neighbor that they will be going on vacation. A trusted neighbor can keep an eye out for the home and report any suspicious activity to the authorities. Most burglaries are successful because members of the neighborhood are unaware that the family is away.


Leave the Light and Television On

Leaving the lights and the television on is a trick that may help deter criminals. A would-be burglar will most likely not try his or her luck entering a home that has the television or lights on. Instead, the burglar will search for a property that looks less challenging. The electric bill may jump for the week of the vacation, but the home may be safe because of it.


Hire a House Sitter

Professional house sitters are people who make a living watching other people’s homes when they are on vacation. They usually have reasonable rates. A house sitter may be willing to perform a background check so that potential clients will not feel nervous about leaving their homes open to someone new.


Invest in Home Monitoring

Finally, a family can invest in home alarm monitoring. Sometimes, a reliable security system is the only option that makes sense. A homeowner can invest less than $10 a month and secure a reliable security system that keeps the home protected at all times. Many companies offer five-star service with a contract, but some companies provide the same quality without asking the consumer to sign a contract. Alarm Relay is an example of a company that provides home security services at an affordable price.


Families no longer have to worry about getting robbed while they are trying to enjoy themselves. Any of the aforementioned actions will help.

3 Tips for Safe Overhead Crane Operation

Your overhead crane is a vital part of your company's everyday doings, whether you work in a factory, a chemical plant, or outdoors on construction sites. But regardless of the setup of your overhead crane, it's important that you use it and care for it according to manufacturer instructions, and that you always obey all safety rules and regulations, and have the crane and any other equipment you own tested regularly. Here are three tips to ensure that you use your overhead crane -- and any other large equipment you'd like to apply these tips to - properly and safely, which ensures the minimization of on-the-job injuries, as well as damage to expensive equipment.



Always respect manufacturer rules and guidelines.
Operate your overhead crane according to instructions, and take care to make sure that you do not overload your crane, or attempt to lift loads that are unbalanced or prone to becoming easily unbalanced. One small shift in an overloaded or unsteady load is all it takes for catastrophic results. Online resources such as www.ProservAnchor.com can provide you with helpful information on rules and guidelines for various cranes and related equipment.

Take into consideration the use of hoists.
Hoists and other types of external lifting equipment all play an important role in helping you to use your overhead crane to its maximum abilities. Of course, you'll want to make sure that with straight-lift cranes in particular, any third party equipment you bring into the equation -- such as an overhead hoist or other lifting equipment -- is being used properly, and has been recently inspected to ensure safe operation.

Perform your own inspections.
State-required minimum inspections ensure that you can continue to run your business, but if you are prioritizing safety on the job, conduct your own monthly inspections to ensure everything is top notch.
