Traffic Guard Direct is a company that sells traffic bollards. Now, what are they? Traffic bollards are removable car barriers of a sort.

It’s very common to see them in parking lots, and also blocking cars from entering into dedicated shopping strips. The idea is that you’re able to keep cars out, but at any time remove the poles for special access to vehicles, or maybe just because an event is being held in the car park at the time and safety poles can be a little unsightly.

They’re produced with heavy duty USA steel and are all quite brightly marked, which will save from the possibility of an untimely accident.

There’s lots of uses, ranging from a driveway that people constantly use, or bike paths or walking trails where emergency or maintenance vehicles may need to drive.

Well I am still keeping in touch with home soil following my beloved Melbourne Victory.

They lost tonight in the Asian Champions League against Gamba Osaka, 4-3. This is proving to be a very difficult for Australian clubs. Last year Sydney was very unlucky not to go through to the next stage while Adelaide left much to be desired.

This year, Melbourne’s campaign is now on a knife-edge, with results already needing to go our way and us needing wins and maybe a draw from here on in to qualify, most likely. And that will be tough, with a trip to Japan coming up and also a trip to South Korea.

So yeh, that’s disappointing. Always next time lads…

Executive Language Training is a company that offers an accent reduction course to help people sound like fluent English speakers.

This is a great idea that will be very valuable for many immigrants to English speaking countries, and those who trade often with English businesses.

English speakers often judge someone if they have a particularly strong accent - they might avoid doing business with them, or even falling in love with them, if they find it hard to communicate in a real way.

The goal is to help people with the specific areas they are struggling with and help with correct pronunciation of American English. The site is basic, but does the job. Too many sites have idiotic bells and whistles but these guys keep it real, delivering just the vital information.
