Alarms for the Elderly Person in Tyler, Texas

Elderly Alarms in Tyler TX

Alarms for the Elderly in Tyler Texas

Many years ago there was a very popular commercial on television of an elderly woman lying on the floor and crying, “Help! I’ve fallen and I can’t get up!” This went on to become a popular phrase that appeared in songs and on t-shirts. While it may have been amusing to many people, it was actually a very important lesson in how the right types of alarms can help elderly people remain independent for just a little while longer.

This particular alarm is made for elderly people living alone or with another elderly person. It’s worn on the body and is wired in to a center that monitors these alarms 24 hours a day 7 days a week. If the person wearing the alarm is in need of something, the response time is cut in half or more so. These alarms basically give the elderly person the freedom to continue living independently for as long as possible.

Elderly people in the city of Tyler, Texas have even more choices in alarms. There are alarms that will alert a caregiver when their patient has wandered out of the safe perimeter so that they can be returned before getting too far and getting lost. These are highly popular with home health workers, as it allows the elder their freedom while giving the worker confidence that a situation will not get out of control. These alarms could be life-savers for your elderly relative and any aging loved one determined to remain at home would benefit highly from having one.

Tyler, Texas MLS for Commercial Property

November 9th, 2010

If you are interested in basing your business out of the ever growing city of Tyler, Texas, you may be interested in working with an MLS for commercial property. This is basically a multiple listing service that describes individual services or exchanges to keep up with commercial property available for sale or lease in the Tyler, Texas and surrounding areas.

Many times, working with both a commercial realtor and an MLS service can cut your searching time in half when trying to find your perfect Tyler, Texas commercial property. It opens a lot more doors to you by introducing you to commercial property that you may not have had access to by just going through a commercial realtor.  These two can work for you hand in hand and offer you even more choices when it comes to finding the most profitable location for your type of business.

It is also possible for you to work on your own with an MLS service. If you choose to keep your commercial realtor and MLS service as two separate methods of finding the right commercial property in Tyler, Texas, that is your prerogative. However, you should have a good working relationship of complete trust with your realtor so that you feel comfortable combining the two. Keep in mind that your realtor can help you even more with information on any commercial property you find through an MLS service. Don’t discredit the importance of an expert for finding the perfect commercial property for you.

The Tyler Marathon, Bringing a Little Excercise to East Texas

January 27th, 2010

The City of Tyler Texas welcomes you to the first annual Tyler Rose marathon, half marathon and 5k. With the idea that Tyler is kind of the picturesque garden destination in Texas with all of the azaleas, trails, and roses it was picked as a new marathon event. The marathon will wind through streets, sidewalks, wooded areas, and finish up in the azalea trail. This is really needed considering how bad the Azalea trail has become over the years. At one point back in the 80’s you would have athletes flying in from Africa to run the Azalea Trail but now all Tyler gets is a unique pack of teenagers wearing the same shirt from a ministry or two in town. Hey a lot of people running the Azalea Trail from the same organization is great but without those great groups like Teen Mania running the 10 and 5k we would only have a handful of people left running it. Tyler Marathon

So this marathon event represents a revitalization in the Tyler Texas running community and will hopefully create something like we used to have back in the 80’s with the Azalea trail. Tyler really needs another serious racing event
and I hope this one takes off and becomes popular. In order for the Tyler marathon to become popular we need to get the word out so be sure to send out tweets and facebook messages to your friends and let them know about www.tylermarathon.com. They can read more about the event in order to plan for it this October. It is still a long ways off to give you plenty of time to train for it.

Many of the details regarding the marathon are still in development stages but it is going to happen so start preparing now. Marathons are not something that can be done without training first. I attempted to run a marathon once at the White Rock Marathon in Dallas and got to about mile 18 when I had to stop because of a lack of preparation and I had just past the donut whole and fresh milk booth.

The website says the event is being produced by Mellew Productions. I have never heard of this company but I am glad they are heading this up. After reviewing their website I found out they specialize in creating fun and festive events in cities across the US.

The Tyler marathon course has not been publicized at this time as the production company awaits approval from the city of Tyler.

Mellew will plan the whole event so that food, prizes, T-shirts, surroundings, the running course, volunteers, and staff are all coordinated to make it as fun and exciting as a marathon can be while making a profit. Isn’t lack of profit why Tyler’s Azalea trail became a miserable failure over the years? Maybe this is our town’s needed turnaround for exciting running events once again. Mellew is based out of Richardson Texas and some of their services are listed below.

Services include:

New Run/Walk Events:

· Event creation and design with event day management.
· Designing effective sponsorship proposals
· Assistance in finding host site for the event
· Create businesslike structure to insure profitability
· Produce brochure, web site, and T-shirt design
· Direct all promotional activities
· Provide all assistance and advice to create a fun and exciting event.

Choices Among Internet Providers in Tyler Texas

If you are like me and live out in the country you don’t have as many choices as someone living in the city limits of Tyler. There are a lot of things that I don’t have the privilege of doing without paying more money such as having a fast internet connection and going to the Tyler Public Library. Both of these things I will end up paying much more for than the average Tyler Texas joe living in the city limits. For those inside the city you can go with Suddenlink cable internet or AT&T highspeed internet service.

There are now even more internet options available for those in and outside the city of Tyler Texas than there has been for many years. There are these highspeed wireless PC cards offered by all the major cell phone carriers that allow you to plug a PC card into your laptop or desktop computer and have a fairly fast wireless internet service. The downside to the PC card wireless access is if you go over your usage limit you could be charged as high as 25 cents per megabyte. Those megabytes go pretty quick especially if you watch Youtube videos or download software.

Best Deal On Wireless Internet PC Card Service In Tyler

As far as cell phone wireless internet PC card service the best deal in Tyler is probably with Sprint although their coverage is spotty out in the country. The fastest and pretty good coverage in and outside the city of Tyler is with Verizon. Verizon will charge you 25 cents per megabyte if you go over your usage limit which is why I no longer use this company. Sprint only charges 5 cents per megabyte if you go over their limit however they also have an unlimited usage plan for a little more money.

Which Wireless Internet PC Card I Prefer The Most

AT&T’s wireless internet PC card goes by the name aircard and offers great speeds and coverage in the city of Tyler although the coverage gets a little spotty depending on where in the country you may be living in Smith County. Overall I prefer the speed of Verizon wireless internet PC card, the price and coverage of the Sprint wireless PC card, and enjoy the speed and coverage of AT&T’s aircard provided you use it within the city of Tyler and not out in the country.

Best Choice For Wireless Internet in Tyler Texas

For an even faster wireless internet outside the city limits of Tyler I recommend going with a wifi service that broadcasts from tower antennas. There is a company by the name of East Texas Wifi that I use and I love the service, low latency and internet speed they offer. There is another wireless internet company that competes with them called DCTexas Internet and they also boast some very fast speeds and low latency. Low latency simply means that any downloads you do will be very quick. If you were to compare the latency of a satellite internet service as you would get with Hughes net it would be a night and day difference. For instance, if you attempted to watch a funny youtube video with Hughes net you might as well queue it up and go eat a sandwich before it will be ready. With East Texas Wifi you will be able to watch the movie immediately almost as if you turned on TV to watch a show you like.

Stay Away From Hughes.net Satelite Internet Service!

WARNING!!! If you live in Tyler Texas or around the area avoid Hughes net at all costs! They will have you commit to a contract while wireless internet service companies like East Texas wifi will put you on a month to month plan. Once you are locked into the Hughes net contract you will quickly discover that the internet service is very slow and reminiscent of old dial up service back in the olden days. You will pay a high price for this lousy internet service too. It simply is not worth it and everyone I have spoken with about Hughesnet in Tyler have told me just how much they hate their internet service.
