End Piracy, Not Liberty!

Tell Congress: Don’t censor the Web

Fighting online piracy is important. The most effective way to shut down pirate websites is through targeted legislation that cuts off their funding. There’s no need to make American social networks, blogs and search engines censor the Internet or undermine the existing laws that have enabled the Web to thrive, creating millions of U.S. jobs.

Too much is at stake – please vote NO on PIPA and SOPA.

Martin Luther King Day

“In 1964, King became the youngest person to receive the Nobel Peace Prize for his work to end racial segregation and racial discrimination through civil disobedience and other nonviolent means. By the time of his death in 1968, he had refocused his efforts on ending poverty and stopping the Vietnam War.” (thanks wikipedia)

BOCcentral.org LAUNCH!

Building Operator Certification® (BOC) training helps companies save money by improving the efficiency of HVAC and lighting systems—the biggest energy users—while giving staff the tools to research and pursue more efficient operational methods. BOC participants save an average of $12,000 per facility per year and more than 90% of participants and their supervisors say that BOC training has improved comfort, saved energy, or saved money in their facilities.

With its national accreditation and broad network, the BOC credential is recognized by employers across the country as a sign of the value and contributions certified facilities management personnel can bring to their organizations.

BOC needed a fresh new look and wanted an easy to use CMS. Working together we came up with a user friendly design and developed a Drupal CMS to use as a browser based editor for all their content updates - from training dates to instructor bios to the FAQ. The team at BOC was a pleasure to work with and the site is everything we hoped it would be!

If it is time for a refresh or converting over to a CMS, give JameyB a call to discuss your website wishlist! Call 773.665.2552
