Alex Sevren, Sales Manager Recommendation – Denver

Susan McGuire – Owner/President at M P Weather Restoration, L.L.C.

“I had the pleasure of working for Alex Sevren at Storm Guard. I stood in awe of Alex’s ability to take a new office and grow that office, to an office with a record for production yet to be surpassed. As Sales Manager Alex motivated and molded experienced and inexperienced sales representatives for success. I found Alex to be a dynamic presenter and his understanding of the sales philosophy tremendous. I learned the business from the ground up, with little understanding of the industry, thanks to Alex’s tutelage and guidance as a Manager. I would recommend Alex Sevren for any position he sets his sights on and I would follow him there.”

Site Ranked Unfairly

RipOffReport.com is a biased site that purports to be a consumer-protection function, ala the BBB, but provides for no protection against liable, lies, or character assassination. It has a “rebuttal” function but that does not remove an inaccurate, distorted, or unfair entry from being displayed but only serves to increase its ranking on Google search.

RipoffReport.com has no process for removing false information and NO process for requiring that the complaining person has at least given the company in question the opportunity to resolve their issue. Complaints can be taken directly to the public without the company even knowing a problem occurred and then displayed (ranked high) by Google without any verification — imputing validation. This is unfair.

Further, RipOffReport gets ranked unfairly high on Google as well because it generates large numbers of hits by being sensational, like a tabloid, and therefore allows smear tactics to sully the reputation of good companies and people unfairly and there is nothing a good company can do.

Do the “accused” simply take the HIGH road and respond once with professionalism and honesty?!.. well maybe in a better world… because the cycle continues and the site only prints the last response – the fraudulent accuser can continue to write whatever pleases them. UNREAL.  “Trail” by insult AND insinuation are without merit.

Google should immediately either block RipoffReports.com from appearing in the search engine or somehow relegate them to some form of “tabloid” status!!

96 Percent Of Network Nightly News’ Coverage Of Extreme Weather Doesn’t Mention Climate Change

Even though I no longer am involved in the SM for SGFS-this is an issue too big to just stop paying attention to.- Alex Sevren

2013 was a big year for climate. Global carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere hit 400 parts per million for the first time in recorded history; global sea levels hit a record high; oil spills, coal mine landslides, and gas explosions beset the world.

But arguably the most visible and persistent climate event was the increase in ferocity of our weather. 2013 was marked by extremes in temperature and precipitation, conditions that fueled deadly wildfiresflooding, and storm surges.

Despite those facts, America’s major television news stations mostly failed to mention climate change when reporting on events like deadly flooding in Colorado, the string of major wildfires across the American West, and bouts of unseasonable temperatures across the country.

Those are the findings of a new survey released by Fairness and Accuracy In Reporting (FAIR), a progressive media criticism group. The results were achieved through analysis of extreme weather news reports with more than 200 words from CBS Evening News, ABC World News and NBC Nightly News for the first nine months of 2013. Extreme weather event reports analyzed included news about hurricanes, drought, wildfires, floods and heat waves.

“Our study demonstrates that when weather is the news, the climate is seldom mentioned,” the organization wrote on its website. “It’s almost as if the climate and the weather were happening on two different planets.”

Out of this year’s 450 segments about extreme weather, just 16 of those reports mentioned climate change, according to the survey. “In other words, 96 percent of extreme weather stories never discussed the human impact on the climate,” FAIR said.

Breaking it down by network, CBS Evening News was the worst culprit of ignoring climate when talking about weather. According to FAIR’s survey, only two out of 114 reports about extreme weather mentioned the terms “greenhouse gases,” “climate change” or “global warming.” One of those segments was about flooding in North Dakota, wherein the only mention came from the mayor of Fargo, who commented: “Is it climate change? I really don’t know.”

On ABC World News, just eight out of its 200 extreme weather segments — approximately four percent — attributed weather outcomes to climate factors. NBC Nightly News mentioned climate change six times in 136 reports on extreme weather.

“It’s unrealistic to expect that TV newscasts would find a way to mention climate change or a warming planet in every significant story about extreme weather,” the organization wrote. “But you’re unlikely to ever bring up global warming if you don’t think that it’s real.”

While the scientific community is still studying certain aspects of the link between climate change and extreme weather, many connections are clear. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s most recent report did not establish whether there was a pattern suggesting an increased frequency of hurricanes and tornadoes due to global warming. But the connection between climate change and the severity of droughts, floods, wildfires and heavy rainfall is obvious. The relatively conservative IPCC warns of increased heat, drought, deluges, and sea-level rise — all the direct result of man-made global warming.

And, as Climate Progress’ own Joe Romm has pointed out, it is all but certain that warming-driven sea level rise makes storm surges more destructive, and that increased water vapor in the atmosphere from increased sea surface temperatures leads to five to ten percent more rainfall and increases the risk of flooding.

As for Hurricane Sandy, there’s little doubt that global warming worsened its impact. In particular, a September study by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration researchers found “climate-change related increases in sea level have nearly doubled today’s annual probability of a Sandy-level flood recurrence as compared to 1950.”  –  EMILY ATKIN
