MOM.  Can you even think of another word that has the power to invoke more emotion, passion, respect and admiration?  Moms seem to have a special power – a superwoman power of sort.  Who else can do the job of a CEO, housekeeper, cook, psychologist, janitor and taxi driver all in one day? Maya Angelou said in her 1969 memoir, “To describe my mother would be to write about a hurricane in its perfect power.” A hurricane.  Now that’s some power.  Forbes.com ( compiled a list of the powerful moms from around the globe. It’s an interesting read, but if you think about it there are also a few moms from pop culture that have helped blaze the trail to empower women as well.

There you have it - 5 TV moms with their own style of superwoman powers.  Admittedly, some may be a bit unconventional.  Nonetheless, these moms get the job done and they have empowered our tomorrows.

Unite to Light, a non-profit organization dedicated to providing low-cost solar lighting to global communities without electricity, and were humbled to learn just how much lighting is taken for granted. Recently, Mark and Valerie Malangko sent us a note of thanks along with heartwarming photos as the lights were handed out to the students at St. Augustine’s Secondary and Technical School, one by one.

We are proud to have played a small part in this huge effort to bring light to deserving students across the globe, and we thank all of our customers that celebrated with us by contributing to this terrific cause.

Question:

I’m an electrical contractor in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. In one of the earlier posts I’ve noticed that you offer a lifetime workmanship warranty. Could you explain to me how it works? As I am planning to implement something similar here. If you can share a copy of you warranty agreement – that would be ideal, but if you cannot I understand that. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Best, Fred Samson

Answer:

For over 30 years I have offered a Lifetime Guarantee on all my company’s work. Over the years, this has generated a lot of extra sales for our Los Angeles electrical contractor customers. The way our guarantee has been so successful for us is that we have a Lifetime Guarantee on all my company’s [B]work[/B], not the materials used.

We tell customers that we guarantee our own work for LIFE, but we can’t be responsible for materials that we didn’t build ourselves (light fixtures, smoke detectors, dimmers, circuit breakers, etc.). On materials, we back-up whatever the manufacturer’s warrantee is.

I’ll be happy to talk about this with you in more detail if you want. Feel free to call me during business hours M-F.

Good luck with your business.
