Today, we're diving into the crucial topic of awning fabric replacement. Have you noticed your awning's colors fading? Or perhaps there are visible tears and stains? These are clear signs that it's time to consider replacing your awning fabric. Mold growth and weather induced damage can also significantly deteriorate the fabric, affecting its appearance and functionality.
Now, let's talk about preventative maintenance to ensure the longevity of your awning fabric. Opting for UV protected fabrics can make a huge difference in how your awning withstands the harsh rays of the sun. Regular cleaning and prompt repairs to any small damages can also extend the life of your awning significantly.
Remember, a little care goes a long way. Weather plays a major role in the health of awning fabrics. Prolonged exposure to sunlight, rain, and wind can lead to fabric deterioration over time. This not only affects the fabric's appearance, but can also lead to operational challenges, such as difficulty in extending or retracting the awning, and increased resistance.
Being aware of these factors can help you better maintain your awning. Seeking professional help for assessment and replacement is recommended. Contacting awning experts, selecting durable materials, and monitoring fabric integrity are key for longevity. Prioritizing maintenance and selecting suitable fabrics can help prevent future issues and ensure the awning's functionality and lifespan.

World War has been declared!
The Green and Tann nations have broken off peace talks. There is no choice but to prepare for a full-scale battle. Only after storming the enemy homeland's shores, traversing thick jungles, and securing war-ravaged cities, does final victory await. Dive back into the trenches!
Real combat. Plastic men.
Plot
In the sequel to the best-selling Army Men and Army Men 3D, you lead the Green Army in a fierce battle against your nemesis: the Tans. Carefully guide your troops through a deadly barrage of enemy fire in over 16 missions covering 5 different terrains. Only the best military minds will prevail in this fiery ground infantry battle. There are plenty of weapons at your disposal: fire with the howitzer, shred plastic with the twin .50-caliber machine gun, or silently stab the enemy with your razor-sharp bayonet. Never before has a plastic war reached this size and scale.

But to the misfortune of the Blue spy, the place where they ended up is too small to escape, and Hawk captures him back for debriefing.
The Spy provided a lot of information about the plans of Plastro and the Tan army, about the discovery of the "Portals" and the weapons that Plastro can get from there. Also the whereabouts of the Heroes.
Having rescued Hoover, Riff, Thick, and Shrap, Sarge is informed by Colonel Grimm that Plastro has sent an ultimatum to the Green nation: "Surrender or be destroyed." The Greens' only option is for Hawk to destroy the last remaining portal in the most heavily guarded corner of Fort Plastro. Hawk eventually manages to use the portal after fighting his way through in an epic one-man battle. After believing Vikki had betrayed the Green army, Hawk rescues Scorch and is told that she stayed with Plastro to try to gain his trust and gain information, so the two of them deliver that valuable strategic information to the Green army.
Returning to Fort Plastro again, this time Sarge attacks from the east side of the base, managing to take it with the help of the Green army for the finale.
After this, Vikki is discovered and Plastro sends a bomb through the portal, destroying the Greens' ability to pursue him, with Hawk being the only one who manages to pass through the portal by using it to escape. He fell into a giant sandbox, watching in the distance as Vikki calls for help while she is kidnapped by Plastro.
Finally Hawk manages to overcome the sandbox and uses a rocket to go to the coordinates where they took Vikki, and after rescuing her they both must escape from a gigantic monster, separating again. But after crossing the entire Christmas living room, Sarge is about to meet Vikki again and reach the portal that will take him home.

Sarge Hawk and Colonel Grimm narrowly escaped by helicopter from the Tan attack on their Green base, but on the way they spot a Blue tank in the middle of the nearest town, which is very suspicious given the circumstances, and Hawk He decides to go and investigate. Trying to follow the Spy, Sarge enters some kind of strange, illuminated cave or hole, which leads him to what appears to be another world totally different from his own: a vast and gigantic world. But to the misfortune of the Blue spy, the place where they ended up is too small to escape, and Hawk captures him back for debriefing.

FMV Mod for Army Men: Sarge's Heroes in Sega Dreamcast, adding the video cutscenes.
Sarge's Heroes is a third-person shooting video game developed and published by The 3DO Company for Nintendo 64 in North America on September 28, 1999 and April 14, 2000 in Europe. The player normally controls Sarge Hawk, a sergeant of the Green Army and fights against the evil General Plastro and the Tan Army. The story is the eternal racial war between the Greens and the Tas. This is 3DO's grand attempt to incorporate a recognizable brand into the Army Men franchise. Establish a main cast, updating the generic "Sarge" from the original series to a strongman Sarge Hawk, giving him a squad, a girlfriend and an officer at the helm. It is a very successful launch, despite the fact that Jim Cummings only gives the voice to each male character, resulting quite convincing. This game helped to bring the franchise further to the subseries Sarge's Heroes. Both armies are named after the usual colors of plastic toy army men.
The campaign of a player is the main mode of Sarge's Heroes. The player travels through various missions, completing objectives.
Exclusive to the PS1 version of the game are the fully animated prerendered scenes, which the Nintendo 64 lacks, thanks to the limited space in the cartridges. Even the Dreamcast version, which is nothing more than an improved copy of the N64, stuck to the pantomime narration in the engine instead of the CGI-animated FMV films.
On N64 you don't have to deal with the clumsy physics and poor collision detection of PS1, even though N64 it's not perfect, it's just much better. DC is not much different to N64, but something worse. It's positive that the lack of verticality of PS1 and PC is not present in N64 and DC, because it adds a whole new dimension to the missions. The N64 version was not optimal in terms of its controls, but it was not as bad as Playstation 1 and PC.
Even though the Army Men games had already established a formula for their third-person shooting games with Army Men 3D, Sarge's Heroes deviates a lot, completely overhauling almost every aspect. The camera perspective, the detail, the movement, the animation; everything has been changed to allow for a faster and less deliberate pace. Sarge Hawk can also jump, which allows for a little climbing on platforms. Pero lo worst is the time it takes the camera that follows the player to adjust itself again, so that the view that we have ahead is not so disconcertingly vacillating.
The Dreamcast version is the same than N64, only with better graphics, textures, character design and voice acting included, which is why Dreamcast is probably the best version (except that the FMV is missing here too).

Small Business Origins podcast. John Kelley special interview with telemarketing teacher Richard Blank.
On this podcast, John Kelley, seasoned entrepreneur and engaging storyteller, dives into the journeys of small business owners. Join him as he uncovers the inspiring, humorous, and often tough realities they face while creating distinct and impactful brands in their industries.
Hear our discussion on outbound lead generation and sales appointment calling, inbound customer support, how Richard got his start, and some best practices for effective communication on sales and support calls.
Guest Bio:
Richard Blank is the CEO and Founder of Costa Rica's Call Center, a full-service BPO call center providing lead generation, customer service, social media support and more for US companies. He founded the company 15 years ago and has grown it to over 300 seats.
Building Relationships Through the Phone Lines: Lessons from a Telemarketing Veteran feat. Richard Blank with Costa Rica's Call Center
Key Quotes:
"I believe in synergy. I believe in circles, and I also believe in the sanctity of a meal together, breaking fast, you know, feeding ourselves, making ourselves stronger." (15:37)
"Why call them gatekeepers, and why give them such a bad rap? These are the first impressions of Emerald City. As long as you understand the protocol and you can give an excellent first impression with that company name spike, you have a chance. Get them out of that trends." (41:44)
"Leaders remember small details about you, or they dress in case your mother shows up so I can go downstairs and thank her for raising such a fine young man who's been with me for 3 years." (16:39)
Main Discussion Points:
The importance of building relationships in sales, not just trying to force a sale
Techniques for effective communication and rapport building on sales and support calls
Why it's important to treat everyone in an organization with respect, not just decision makers
How to get referrals and repeat business through exceptional customer service
Why taking time to understand the local culture is key when doing business abroad
How Costa Rica’s Call Center vets clients to avoid unethical business practices
Accents and Market Perception in Business
There's a 95% literacy rate. And say what you want. If somebody has a slight accent, to me, it still bears the mark of higher education. And if you do, it's like a beauty mark. And so I think more people are becoming more accustomed towards a Latino accent in the United States than they would an Asian or a Middle Eastern. And so that has given us some leverage in regards to growing our campaigns.
Building Relationships: The Real Key Players
what we always call the gatekeeper is the one that you should make your best friend. That's the one, you know, it's not the doctor who owns the place. It's not the doctors that work there or the nurses that work there. It's the front desk receptionist, the first one that everyone sees when they enter that ER.
Richard's Journey and Philosophy on Bravery
And two months turned into four years of learning the business from the inside out, not as a C-level executive, And then in my mid-30s, I threw my hat in the ring, and I had some maturity and impulse control and some capital. And little did I know, we just celebrated our 15th year in business. And so it's been a great ride of twists and turns. But I tell you what, fortune favors the brave. And if you do your due diligence and your dedicated practice, and you believe that you can put your chest out there and your best foot forward, then by all means, I think you should drink life. And I think you should go for it. You only get 100 years on this planet. If you're lucky. That's right. So you left your parents. How much family did you have here in the States that you just said, hey, I got to go? Well, it's all my family. And they live in Philadelphia and Colorado, Arizona. They're scattered. But how about this, my friend? When I was expected to study law or finance or economics, I kind of used my great-grandparents as an example. They came to the United States at the turn of the 20th century from Eastern Europe, moved to New York in the garment industry. Great-grandpa learned English. He ramped up a company. He took his chance and had his adventure. Just skipped a couple generations and I'm going south.
The Double-Edged Sword of Telemarketing
If it wasn't for the marketing side of things and making those cold calls and doing sales like I'm used to, then I would absolutely probably hate you, instead of wanting to have you on my show, but seeing it from the other side and knowing that these phone calls are being made for a reason, to make a living, to feed people, to put jobs out there for others. I think that what you do is important, but who can lie and say that they really enjoy it when they get that spam call and somebody's calling them to solicit them or sell something to them. I think all of us have kind of grown to hate that. So let's just start with exactly what it is that you do and what it is that you don't do as far as those things are concerned, you know, where the, the good and the bad is kind of mixed and some people's perceptions may be bad, but you can change our minds on that. Not a problem at all. In fact, from an educated point of view, hopefully your audience can make a decision.

John Kelley:
Growing up in the fire service for the last 20 years, I've learned the value of service and leadership from my years in. As a full-time firefighter and lieutenant, I’ve been in the trenches, leading teams, solving problems under pressure, and keeping my community safe. That same drive to serve and protect has shaped my approach as a marketer, where I now help government leaders and public safety agencies transform the way they connect with their communities.
I understand the unique challenges you face. As a firefighter, I’ve seen firsthand how hard it is to keep the public informed and engaged, especially when resources are stretched thin. As a marketing professional, I’ve witnessed how outdated systems and scattered communication strategies can hold organizations back. That’s why I’m passionate about leveraging tools like AI, automation, and cutting-edge marketing platforms to simplify communication, build trust, and drive efficiency in ways that make a real impact.
From streamlining community engagement for city governments to creating campaigns that strengthen public safety messaging, my mission is to make your job easier and your results stronger. Whether you're a city manager balancing tight budgets, a fire chief advocating for funding, or a marketing director trying to reach every corner of your community, I’m here to help.
Soon, I’ll be launching a newsletter packed with actionable insights, tools, and strategies to empower leaders like you. Whether you're looking to modernize your communication, increase engagement, or simply free up time to focus on what matters most, this newsletter will be your go-to resource.
Let’s connect and start a conversation about how we can work together to make your vision a reality. After all, transforming the way we communicate doesn’t just make life easier—it makes our communities stronger.
