| Parish hopes to reopen improved office annex
ST. FRANCISVILLE — West Feliciana Parish Police Jury officials said Thursday they hope improvements made in recent weeks would allow them to reopen the parish’s courthouse annex Monday. Jury President Bert Babers and Parish Manager Ambrose Sims said the jury will monitor the air quality in the building through the weekend and again Monday morning. "All things being equal, we hope we can reopen Monday," Babers said after meeting with a consulting engineer the jury hired last month when workers in the building began complaining of illnesses. Investigations into possible causes for the illnesses showed a buildup of carbon dioxide in the building, as well as dirty ductwork in part of the building’s heating and air conditioning systems. A year ago, dangerously high levels of carbon monoxide made workers ill and forced the jury to close the building until the jury sealed an exterior opening in its boiler room wall near the boilers’ exhausts.
Manufacturing company moving into old GM plant (video)
The old General Motors plant in the Town of Salina is about to have some new life breathed into it. BITZER Scroll, an independent air conditioning and refrigeration company, will be moving into the plant. The move is expected to create around 300 engineering and manufacturing jobs. BITZER Scroll will use a 1.4 million dollar grant from the Empire State Development Corporation to invest in the plant. The company says it will invest 30 million dollars over the next five years. In a press release Governor Spitzer says that BITZER Scroll could have located anywhere in the world, but "the company chose Syracuse and Central New York because we demonstrated the value of our workforce and our knowledge-based resources. " He goes on to say that BITZER Scroll will be the cornerstone of upstate economic revitalization.

Yes, we as a race are responsible for some of the problems but the Earth has had periods of heat and cold for billions of years.
