Big Trees Inc. To Acquire New, Stronger Tree Transport Truck

Tree Transplanting Company Very Pleased With Acquisition Of New Workhorse

SEATTLE, CA: Big Trees Inc. (http://bigtreesupply.com/), a tree transplanting company and tree nursery in the Seattle area, has expanded their operations by acquiring a larger truck for transporting large trees for installation or transplanting.

The new Semi truck is now completely equipped to transport almost any large tree from one site to another, and will be used for all of the company’s larger transport projects, such as with trees measuring from 10 feet tall up to 30 feet tall.

old truckNancy Latham, owner of Big Trees Inc., stated “We’re going to miss the old International truck. That has been our mainstay for years. It’s seen us through our University of Washington work, our work planting in downtown Seattle, and innumerable large residential projects. But it seems she has decided to move on to greener pastures, so it is now time to lay her to rest. We are very excited to welcome this new, stronger truck to Big Trees Inc., and I can foresee we can now take on even larger projects than before. We very much look forward to the years of service to come.”

Big Trees has been involved in a extraction and storage project for an estate in the Clyde Hill neighborhood, and are preparing to bring the trees back into the property as the remodel work is coming to a close. There are two 8’ tall, 14’ wide Laceleaf Japanese Maple trees, weighing in around 7,000 pounds each, that will be placed back into the new landscape, as well as two specimen Pine trees. These trees will be handled and reset into their new gardens under direction of the landscape designer and the owners of the estate. It will be exciting to see the trees reintegrated into their former property. They have been in storage for a year and a half here in our nursery.

Nancy Latham is the owner of Big Trees Inc. (http://www.bigtreesupply.com), located in Snohomish, WA, in the Seattle area. The company is one of the largest tree nurseries in the Seattle area with over 120,000 trees available in over 300 varieties. They not only can deliver young trees but also mature trees in a wide range of sizes. Some types of trees available include spring flowering, deciduous, evergreen, and privacy trees. The company also does tree transplanting including large trees. Their blog can be seen at http://www.bigtreesupply.com/blog/

Foundation Professional Advises On Inspections For A Home

Foundation Inspection Specialist Gives Indicators That Show When Foundation Inspection Needed

LOS ANGELES, CA: Julian Construction Inc., (http://www.julianconstruction.com/), a foundation construction and foundation repair company in the Los Angeles area, issued a recommendation to homeowners detailing when the home foundation may need an inspection to determine if any problems need to be addressed. Shawn Kyles, co-owner of the company, released the recommendations.

The report reads in part:

“Some of the signs that you may be having a foundation problem are:
Windows and doors that won’t open, close or lock properly
Cracks in walls or ceilings
Tilting or sloping floors
Cracks through brick mortar
Twisted or un-even outdoor siding
Out-of-square garage doors
These are indicators that your home may need foundation repair or even replacement.”

 

The report can be read in full here:

http://julianconstruction.typepad.com/julian-construction-blog/2009/08/how-to-tell-if-your-home-foundation-needs-an-inspection.html

Julian De La Torre, founder of Julian Construction Inc., also issued a statement: “These points are something we are always looking for, but sometimes we arrive at the house and notice these things could have and should have been addressed sooner. Some homeowners do not know the points to look for and so they do not call a foundation specialist soon enough. This makes the problem even bigger and more expensive to deal with. If more people know the simple points to look for then the problems could be detected quickly and dealt with before they become a serious issue for a home.”

Simple Steps For Preventing Foundation Damage In A Home

Foundation Construction Company Urges Homeowners To Maintain Foundations

LOS ANGELES, CA: Julian Construction, Inc. (http://www.julianconstruction.com/) is beginning a campaign to raise public awareness on the importance of maintainng a stable foundation for a home. In addition to their assertion on monies saved, the company has also raised questions on the safety for a family living in a home with a poor foundation. The company is also listing recommendations on the steps to take to maintain a foundation. Julian Construction is a foundation repair and foundation construction company in Southern California.

The company provided the following list as part of its campaign, as ways to maintain a foundation and protect it from damage.

1. Ensure proper drainage. Gutters, drain spouts etc. should be used to stop water from accumulating in any one place around a home and should move water away from the house. Water can be erosive of a foundation, so steps should be taken to ensure it is properly channeled. Also ensure the ground around the house is graded to slope away from the foundation.

2. Repair any plumbing problems. Similar to #1, water is the issue here. Pipes, faucets, sprinklers and other apparatus that are leaking can cause foundation problems. Regularly inspect your home’s plumbing for these issues and get them repaired at once.

3. Keep soil moisture at a constant level. Soil contracts and expands depending on moisture, and this can disrupt the stability of the foundation for a home directly. In dry periods, ensure your lawn is regularly watered to keep moisture levels even.

4. Install a root barrier. This is conditional on if there are trees or shrubs placed near your home. If this is the case then steps must be taken to ensure the roots do not encroach on the foundation. A root barrier can stop these from doing further damage. In the future, take steps to plant trees and shrubs farther away from the foundation of your home.

5. Weatherproof your home. Check for the holes and cracks around your home that will allow moisture to go through. Use caulking, weatherstripping, etc. to handle these.

Julian De La Torre, founder of Julian Construction Inc., stated “Proper maintenance of a foundation is very, very important to the structure and value of your home. There’s nothing that could be more crucial than ensuring that this is kept up. First of all, when a foundation is damaged it could very easily cause uneven floors, cracks in walls, and other problems observable directly in the home. But even more important is the potential risk in the event of an earthquake, because if a foundation is in poor condition then the house may not stand up to the conditions of the earthquake, and would cause the structure to collapse or even move off of the foundation. So it is extremely important that a foundation be well maintained.”

Developmental Editor Publishes Essay On Story Creation Elements


Susan Mary Malone Writes Essay On How to Avoid the “Sagging Middle” When Crafting a Story

DALLAS, TX: Susan Mary Malone, (http://www.maloneeditorial.com/) developmental editor and author, has recently published an essay for the writing community on the subject of plot creation and “the middle” of a story. Ms. Malone talks from the experience of not only editing the works of others, but having written and had published fiction and non-fiction works of her own as well.

In her essay, she says, “What trips up more writers than anything is the middle section. This comprises over half of your book. It’s the meat, where the story and characters deepen. Where you take off on different tangents that all come back, eventually, into the mainstream, the main theme, the raison d’etre. In other words, the middle section of the book will make or break your novel.

“What we see most often here is sagging middles. Yep, the book’s setup is great. And it comes to a satisfying conclusion. But the middle is either so jumbled and convoluted, or, more often, very little happens here. The pacing lags, the characters take paths that don’t lead back to the story question, the book’s middle sags, and your reader has just gone off to make a sandwich. Once lured away, he rarely comes back. So, how to keep this from happening?”

The full text of the essay can be found here: http://www.maloneeditorial.com/blog/?p=214

Susan Mary Malone has worked as a freelance editor since 1993, with a BS in Political Science and minors in English and Journalism. Her client list includes NY Times Bestsellers, Essence Bestsellers and books featured in Publishers Weekly. She is also an award-winning author of fiction and non-fiction herself.

Aero & Marine Tax Professionals Helps Produce Company Obtain Sales/Use Tax Exemption on Airplane

Southern California Produce Company Gets Sales/Use Tax Exemption on Purchase of Beechcraft Baron Airplane

SACRAMENTO, CA: Aero & Marine Tax Professionals (http://www.aeromarinetaxpros.com), a tax consulting firm, recently assisted a produce company located in southern California to obtain a sales/use tax exemption from the California Board of Equalization on the purchase of a Beechcraft Baron.

A company executive, Mark Vestal, stated: “We needed the aircraft so we could be able to travel between growing areas in a timely manner. We are in the produce business, and we wouldn’t be able to do trips in one day on commercial airlines. With our own airplane we would be able to fly both to Arizona and inspect produce there and then fly to, say, Salinas in the same day to meet growers and shippers there. We saw Aero & Marine Tax Professionals advertised on the internet, so we called them up. We got a personal assistant from the company that helped us through the process. It gave a much better understanding of the tax liabilities and what needs to be done through this process, I actually learned a lot. We recommend them to others. It sure worked for us!”

Aero & Marine Tax Professionals founder, Tom Alston, stated “Many people who purchase aircraft aren’t aware that there are totally legal ways to avoid the sales/use tax on an aircraft, which can amount to between tens and hundreds of thousands of dollars. But equally unknown is the fact that you have to work with an expert from the very beginning of the purchase cycle, in order to be certain of getting an exemption.”

Aero & Marine Tax Professionals shows purchasers how to avoid sales/use tax, specifically how to avoid aircraft tax and vessel tax in California and to make certain the full value of their next aircraft, vehicle or vessel goes into their pocket--not the government's. They have successfully filed hundreds of tax returns with the California State Board of Equalization. Mr. Alston has also published many articles on sales and use tax. Their blog can be seen at http://aeromarinetaxpros.typepad.com.

Aero & Marine Tax Professionals Helps Asset Management Company Win Tax Exemption

Company Acquires Sales/Use Tax Exemption on 2011 Pilatus PC-12/47E Aircraft

SACRAMENTO, CA: Aero & Marine Tax Professionals, (http://www.aeromarinetaxpros.com/), has helped a Southern California asset management company to obtain a sales/use tax exemption on the purchase of a 2011 Pilatus PC-12.

An executive from the company, Robert Hayes, stated “We needed the plane to be able to find and evaluate business opportunities quickly. Using commercial would not afford us the opportunity to move quickly on investment opportunities when needed. We were referred to Aero & Marine Tax Professionals by a pilot friend, and the experience itself was seamless. The instructions given were easy to follow, and the monthly follow-up on the aircraft usage was a great help. It was very easy and very manageable from our perspective. I would recommend Aero & Marine Tax Professionals to others.”

Aero & Marine Tax Professionals founder, Tom Alston, stated “Getting someone a sales/use tax exemption isn’t a simple matter, because there are so many rules and regulations in this field. That’s why we specialize, so we have the resources to know all the rules completely and stay abreast of every change that comes along. That way the process of applying for a sales/use tax exemption goes smoothly and the client can feel confident and not have to worry.”

Transplanting Time

by Nancy Latham

 

We’re approaching the most wonderful time of the year.

Now for those of you who think I’m getting into Christmas caroling a little too early, hear me out. I’m not talking about winter. I’m talking about the season we’re going into now, fall.

Why would I say fall tops all of the other seasons? Simple. It is far and away the most beautiful season, when nature really gets to show off its colors. The brilliant changes of red, yellow, purple, gold, orange, and every other color this season has to offer are really without equal. One of the best parts of owning a tree, hands down.

But even more importantly, this is transplanting time.

Some species of trees will survive transplanting year round, if the ground isn’t frozen, but this is a little more rare. You don’t want to wait until the ground starts to freeze to move a tree; anywhere close to this drastically reduces the chances of the tree making it. Early fall or even better late fall, after the leaf drop begins, is optimal. That’s why Big Trees Inc. gets its new trees at this time of year, and we highly recommend transplanting trees into a yard at this time of year.

At our nursery we can exert strict control over soil conditions and wind protection, so we can be assured of an easy transplanting of the tree into its new home. We take the same care when approaching a yard and the varying conditions that can be present. It just takes finding the right tree and knowing when to plant.

Now, for this season some of the more traditional and most popular trees to plant are Red Maples, Oaks and Birch. These put on a great display of fall colors and survive well in a yard. But each year we also feature different ornamental and unique flowering specimens. We also plant many varieties of evergreens, both as stand alone specimens and privacy screens. Depending on the various conditions, different trees will be better suited to a particular yard, and it also depends on exactly what you want for your yard. When making this decision consult with an expert on tree transplanting who can walk you through the process.

If you need to get a little more reality than a Google Image Search to find the right tree for your yard (I don’t blame you), then you can locate a nursery and see the different options. They will be happy to show you their selection and advise you on the best choice for your yard and your needs.

Tree Installation Project For Developmental School Completed

Big Trees Inc. Very Satisfied With Results Of The Recent Installation Project

SEATTLE, WA: Big Trees Inc., (http://bigtreesupply.com/) recently completed a large tree installation project for a school parking lot in downtown Seattle. The project was undertaken for the University Child Development School, a school first started on the University Of Washington campus and which now serves as a fully professional practice school. Big Trees Inc. is proud to announce the projects were completed to excellent results.

The project consisted of installing a large Japanese Maple Tree and five tall Katsura trees in the play area and child pick up zone of the school, as well as a Ginkgo being replanted from previous construction activities on the campus. The trees were wanted to provide shade and give a livelier aspect to the area for the children to play in. According to an executive from the company, the trees are doing well in their new environment and it is expected they will continue to develop very well there.

Nancy Latham, owner of Big Trees Inc., stated “We have done a number of projects for the University Of Washington, and it was a pleasure to work with the UCDS (University Child Developmental School). The installation went very well, and we’ll be checking up on the trees to make sure they thrive in their new yard.”

Nancy Latham is the owner of Big Trees Inc. (http://www.bigtreesupply.com), located in Snohomish, WA, in the Seattle area. The company is one of the largest tree nurseries in the Seattle area with over 120,000 trees available in over 300 varieties.

Big Trees Inc Reports Good Progress On Construction Site Project

Transplanting Project On Construction Site Going Well Says Tree Moving Company

SEATTLE, WA: Big Trees Inc., (http://bigtreesupply.com/) has reported excellent progress being made on a project they have been contracted for, involving the moving of several trees off-site of a construction site in progress for the purpose of saving the trees. According to an executive from the company, the project will be completed and the trees transplanted in time for the fall season.

The company, Big Trees Inc., was approached to move a number of large Beech Trees, each over 10,000 pounds, to new locations. The purpose for the move is to avoid construction underway which would either damage the trees or stop the construction. Despite the fact that the trees are very large and thus present a challenge in safely transplanting them to a new location, Big Trees Inc. reports excellent progress being made on the project.

Big Trees Operation’s Manager, Todd Holmes stated “We’ve been happy to report that the project has been moving forward very well. All of the trees have ‘hardened off’ which means the new growth has become stable and secure as part of the trees standard foliage, so now this makes the trees exceptionally ready for transplanting. We try to schedule these projects of large tree transplants to be ready to move in the fall. Fall is the best time to plant, and this becomes even more vital with larger trees. So we fully expect to see this project come to a successful conclusion.”

Writer's Conferences In The Brave New World

By Susan Mary Malone

Last weekend I spoke at the first annual Lexicon Writer’s Conference, which promises to be a big player as time goes on. I’m a conference proponent, as I’ve written about before. The information is almost always useful, and the networking, a huge boon.

But as the publishing world changes, so too do writers conferences. Yes, they still offer sessions on the nuts-and-bolts of writing, author panels that address experiences, expert sessions on technical issues such as police procedures or poison deaths in mysteries, research for historical novels, etc. The focus is still on writing great and believable books. But a seismic shift has occurred in the “business” angle these days. Because before, the focus regarding that was on agents and publishing-house editors. And now, given equal billing (and sometimes more), that focus is on self-publishing—addressing book printers and book covers and e-book conversions and marketing the finished product. Today, as we’ve seen the e-book revolution turn traditional publishing on its head, writers come looking for not only writing tips, but also entrepreneurial skills and business acumen.

Wow, what a brave new world it really is! We’ve all watched our “revolution” spin publishing in a 180-degree different orbit, in such a very short time. And this was the first conference at which I’ve spoken that has changed direction with it.

While so very many of the old stand-by conferences have shrunk to mere skeletons of themselves, or disappeared entirely, Mitch Haynes, the mastermind behind Lexicon, has formed a new model. And that model was not only successful last weekend, but will be hugely so in the future.

We are in a new world. And as has happened since time immemorial, those who adapt progress. I won’t talk about the dinosaurs regarding everyone else.

Another thing that was in stark contrast with this conference was the camaraderie. At so many in the past, writers entered wide-eyed with terror at having to convince agents and editors of their books’ worth. Because those folks spelled life or death for any writer’s dream. And while I always work with my writers about letting go of that fear (agents and editors are just normal folks, trying to make a living as well), it’s an uphill battle. The thing in most stark contrast for me, however, was that at conferences of old, you could feel the competition between writers, as if there were only a precious few seats at the table (which in reality, there were), and one had to “best” another writer to grab that spot. This isn’t true, of course, as agents and editors just look for something they can sell! But writers felt the pressure nonetheless, and often left feeling jaded and unappreciated.

At Lexicon, the attitude was 180 degrees opposite. The feeling was that everyone was in this insanity together, and I can’t even list all the times I saw folks helping one another, making connections, touting each other. “You’re selling how many books? How’d you do that?” Response, “Let me show you!”

I’ll confess to being a true Pollyanna; I like for us to all get along. But you have to remember I’m a pretty danged jaded editor myself, so when the converse happens, I’m not surprised. However, when the true spirit of cooperation and support occurs, it makes my heart sing.

Writing and publishing have always been such difficult endeavors. And that remains—getting a truly publishable book out there requires copious amounts of blood, sweat, and tears. No way around that. But how fabulous to watch writers finally be on the same team, cheering and helping one another along.

Now, that’s a brave new world I’m proud to be a part of!
