LAS VEGAS, NV, March 04, 2011 (Press-News.org) American Professional Services (APS) recently announced that it is offering a commercial hood installation training program in the Los Vegas, Nevada area. The training will include how to install HVAC (Heating, Ventilating, and Air Conditioning) and fire suppression systems for businesses currently involved in restaurant construction, and for businesses running commercial kitchens needing an upgrade.
With headquarters in Denver, Colorado, APS specializes in commercial hood sales and professional cleaning services for commercial exhaust hood systems throughout the country.
When asked why APS is offering this training program in Las Vegas, Nevada CEO Massoud Farazandeh said, "We have received a tremendous amount of calls from businesses involved in restaurant construction in Las Vegas who need HVAC and fire safety systems installed. The reason we are offering this training session, is so that we can continue to keep up with the demand for our hood installation services with sufficient highly-trained personnel."
Why is it important to install these systems during restaurant construction?
Installing fire protection and HVAC systems during restaurant construction will save the business a great deal of time and money.
Farazandeh said, "By making these installations during the construction phase, we can ensure that the kitchen is built to allow for easy future maintenance, cleaning and repair. In addition, by doing this early, the costs for materials and labor for the restaurant owner are less. When we install new systems in established businesses, the cost is greater because we have to make so many changes and improvements to get them or keep them up to code."
What will the training program include?
The training program will include how to install all of the components required for a complete HVAC and fire prevention installation including but not limited to installation of:
- stainless-steel hoods
- required duct work
- exhaust fans
- a complete UL300 compliant fire-suppression system
- needed electric connections
- roofing and roof patches for ducts.
Also included in the training program will be how to repair, inspect, and service all the elements of a commercial kitchen hood and fire safety system.
What certifications and affiliations does APS-Hoods have?
In business since 1989, and fully insured and bonded, APS-Hoods retains licenses in mechanics, electric, and fire protection contracting. Nation Wide Protection Corporation performs all installations.
Professional affiliations include the National Fire Protection Agency, relevant states' Division of Fire Safety Fire Suppression Programs, and the Heiser Fire Protection Certificate of Achievement program.

Former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan speaks out on the costs of government activism
2011-03-04
NEW YORK—March 3, 2011 — In an article to be published in the forthcoming issue of International Finance, Dr. Alan Greenspan, former chairman of the Federal Reserve, issues a major analysis of the U.S. government's economic recovery and reform efforts since the collapse of Lehman Brothers in September 2008.
Greenspan calculates that long-term fixed corporate investment "is now at levels, relative to cash flow, that we have not experienced since 1940." This shortfall, he explains, accounts for much of the tepid recovery and current abnormally high levels of unemployment. ...
'David and Goliath' viruses shed light on the origin of jumping genes: UBC study
2011-03-04
University of British Columbia researchers have identified a small virus that attacks another virus more than 100 times its own size, rescuing the infected zooplankton from certain death. The discovery provides clues to the evolutionary origin of some jumping genes found in other organisms.
The study, by UBC marine microbiologist Curtis Suttle and PhD student Matthias Fischer, is published online today in Science Express. It describes the marine virus Mavirus and its interaction with marine zooplankton Cafeteria roenbergenesis and CroV, the world's largest marine virus.

2011-03-04
Following a week of intense bidding, the auction for Justin Bieber's hair closed today with a final winning bid from GoldenPalace.com. The popular online casino spent $40,668.00 to lock down the teen singing phenom's famous locks with all proceeds going to support The Gentle Barn Foundation.
The idea for the auction began when The Biebs paid a surprise visit to Ellen DeGeneres during the taping of her show in February. The 53-year-old talk show host had recently tweeted that she wanted a lock of Bieber's hair for her birthday. Never one to disappoint a belieber, Justin ...
Chicken litter provides organic alternative to synthetic fertilizers
2011-03-04
CRYSTAL SPRINGS, MS—Recent movements aimed at managing environmental impacts of agriculture have spurred interest in the development and use of organic and natural fertilizers for commercial applications. Many organic fertilizers are byproducts of livestock, fish, food, and other processing industries. In Mississippi, where the poultry industry produces more than 730 million broiler chickens each year, and annual chicken litter production is estimated at more than 730,000 tons, there is a naturally abundant supply of chicken litter available for fertilizer.

Using wastewater to enhance mint production
2011-03-04
SOUTH VERONA, MS—When essential oils are extracted from plants through the process of steam distillation, wastewater is produced and subsequently released into rivers and streams. Finding new uses for these unused by-products could benefit essential oil crop growers and processors as well as the environment. A team of researchers has found that the residual distillation water of some aromatic plant species has a beneficial effect on yields and can increase essential oil content of peppermint and spearmint crops.
Peppermint and spearmint are commercially produced for their ...
Researchers find possible new treatment strategies for pancreatic cancer
2011-03-04
Athens, Ga. – New University of Georgia research has identified a protein that can be modified to improve the effectiveness of one of the most common drugs used to treat pancreatic cancer.
The research, published in the March edition of the journal Cancer Research, found that a cell-surface protein called CNT1, which transports cancer-killing drugs into tumor cells, was reduced in function in two thirds of pancreatic tumors. By improving the function of CNT1, the researchers increased the effectiveness of the cancer-killing drugs in pancreatic tumor cells derived from ...
Feet first? Old mitochondria might be responsible for neuropathy in the extremities
2011-03-04
The burning, tingling pain of neuropathy may affect feet and hands before other body parts because the powerhouses of nerve cells that supply the extremities age and become dysfunctional as they complete the long journey to these areas, Johns Hopkins scientists suggest in a new study. The finding may eventually lead to new ways to fight neuropathy, a condition that often accompanies other diseases including HIV/AIDS, diabetes and circulatory disorders.
Neuropathies tend to hit the feet first, then travel up the legs. As they reach the knees, they often start affecting ...
Doctors lax in monitoring potentially addicting drugs
2011-03-04
March 3, 2011 — (BRONX, NY) — Few primary care physicians pay adequate attention to patients taking prescription opioid drugs — despite the potential for abuse, addiction and overdose, according to a new study by researchers at Albert Einstein College of Medicine of Yeshiva University.
The study, published in the March 2 online edition of the Journal of General Internal Medicine, found lax monitoring even of patients at high risk for opioid misuse, such as those with a history of drug abuse or dependence. The findings are especially concerning considering that prescription ...
Method developed to match police sketch, mug shot
2011-03-04
The long-time practice of using police facial sketches to nab criminals has been, at best, an inexact art. But the process may soon be a little more exact thanks to the work of some Michigan State University researchers.
A team led by MSU University Distinguished Professor of Computer Science and Engineering Anil Jain and doctoral student Brendan Klare has developed a set of algorithms and created software that will automatically match hand-drawn facial sketches to mug shots that are stored in law enforcement databases.
Once in use, Klare said, the implications are ...
