CLARKSDALE, Miss. In business, advertising is everything and it always helps to have a catchy slogan or sign.
WREG reports that a couple of Clarksdale, Mississippi, developers created a buzz by opening a new hotel that pays homage to a famous Delta Blues legend, in a very eye-opening way.
The sign for Hooker Hotel, on East 2nd Street in downtown Clarksdale, immediately got Pamela Vances attention.
It just amazed me. And I came back just to actually came back to see if I was reading the right thing or if something was wrong with my eyes, said Pamela Vance of Friars Point.
No, Pamela, theres nothing wrong with your vision. The sign clearly reads Hooker Hotel.
Its the newest place in Clarksdale to bed down for a night or two.
Cause the first impression I know, was in the gutter. But thats just where my mind went, said Vance.
But before you call the Vice Squad, you should know this unique hotel is named for Delta Blues legend John Lee Hooker.
Probably one of the better old-time Blues guys. Very popular in the 60s, John Magnusson, the builder and property manager for Hooker Hotel, said.

DEADWOOD The journey to Deadwoods Highway 85 construction project has been just as bumpy and windy as the 1.5-mile road really is, but Monday crews will begin working to improve the major thoroughfare, looking to improve the ride for locals and tourists, alike.
With city, South Dakota Department of Transportation (DOT) and Oftedal officials in attendance, the project was discussed in detail Wednesday night at a public meeting in Deadwood.
Construction on Deadwoods Highway 85/Cemetery Street Reconstruction Project will begin in November and has an anticipated completion date of September, 2016.
The project timeline includes three phases.
Phase 1 will run from November through March of 2014 and includes four sub-phases, none of which involve highway reconstruction. Phase 1A includes Cemetery Street storm sewer and utilities work. Phase 1B includes constructing a retaining wall near the Mickelson Trail, and Phase 1D includes a rock cut in the vicinity of Twin City Hardware. Phase 1C includes a rock cut in the vicinity of Mollmans gas station.
Phase 1 traffic control involves closing down a portion of Cemetery Street; a temporary pedestrian access detour on the Mickelson Trail; one lane of traffic through the rock cut 1 and 2 areas using flaggers and temporary signals.
Chris Audiss, project manager for the principal contractor on the project, Oftedal Construction, said that Monday, crews will begin setting up barriers at the site of the first rock cut, near Mollmans corner.
Well be setting up concrete barriers along the south edge of the highway, Audisss said. The barriers are to protect any rocks that may fall down from up top, as we are starting to excavate this rock cut.
On Monday, motorists should expect 10 minute delays.
Tuesday, the project begins in earnest, and motorists will experience two weeks of 30-minute delays between the hours of 9 a.m. and 3 p.m.

Introduction
DMR's Work Standards for Gutters The list below explains most of the details regarding our 31 unique advantages over most any other local Gutter Contractors for just basic gutter and downspout installations, which are well above Building Code. These don't even cover the descriptions of the our 'affordable' No-clog option advantages we've done on most gutter jobs over the past 18 years. For a comparison of leaf debris protection for gutters with the different concepts out there and a list of advantages go to my No-clog Comparison web page, which is much more than just a check list you may have seen on other web sites.
To the right is a copy of our cover sheet I have as part of our presentation folder I give each client when providing them a bid. In this presentation folder I also provide a list of my current prices, a copy of the Better Business Bureau's NW Business Integrity Award for the year 1997/98, 10 page FAQ, consumer protection information required by the CCB, along with other consumer protection pamphlet they wrote, and of course a detailed bid with a selection of color options for the pre-painted aluminum gutter parts.
I also supply a physical sample of the gutter I install with a Monster Hidden Hanger screwed in place w/stainless steel screws. If the client is present at the time of the bid I also have a physical example of the Leaf-catcher we make, which has a stronger stainless steel screen in them, along with other samples of parts you will see no where else.

1. Our Installation Experience and Ethics: Doing business as DMR I have been local to the Portland Oregon area since 1985. Your new gutter parts will be installed by a seasoned professional who is also the owners of DMR Gutters with an apprentice I've know since he was a young lad. I have a vested interest in my company's reputation, which it seems I cannot pay others enough to care as much. Not installed by workers you never got a chance to meet before hand, as with most any other Gutter Contractor. Ask their sales rep how much experience they've had installing gutters, if not actively an installer. Did they walking around your house with you pointing out suggestions for improvement which can and will be made to improve your rain management system?
I, David Rich have been working in forms of paid construction work since 1980 coming up with innovative solutions. I was tested in school to have a 99% mechanical aptitude, with a high skill in spatial arrangement, math, and an artistic back ground. The first paid gig for wood working I got was building a large humanoid skeletal and muscular structure in a dramatic stance for a life-size Darth Vader costume I designed and made for the promotions of the Star Wars sequel 'Empire Strikes Back' in 1980 in Salt Lake City Utah, since they do not sell a 7' tall mannequin. That demonstrated my early remarkable ingenuity at just 17 years old. My fellow classmates must have thought I was nuts!
I was an auto mechanic at my Father's shop specializing in Honda 600 cars. I've specialized in custom rain management sheet metal fabrication and installation since 1992. In most cases I redesign the replacements to improve their rain management system from what was there before in numerous different ways not offered by other Gutter Contractors.
Tia Rich decided to set aside her career in Nursing and Social Work to join David in this line of work full time for a few years, so she understands this work from all angles as well. Tia is also very artistic and has a positive influences on this presentation and the gutter work. She still loves being active in this business, but she has built up her business as a Midwife, so getting her hands covered with spray paint, caulk, and cuts from working with the sheet-metal would not be good for her line of work these days. she does not physically work with David much any more, but is often found with him writing up bids. Her web site for her business is: http://inner-serenity.org.
Other than coffee and tea, I don't use artificial stimulants or depressants on or off work. I have written web pages on the philosophy of good ethics in business and one's personal life to express my feelings on ethical responsibility. You can read more about my background on my Company History web page and Biography web page if you're so inclined.

Install new gutters on your house fairly easily, with a few tool and a set of extra hands. Check out this video tutorial on how to install new gutters.See Transcript
Hi, Im Rocky Matson for About.com, and today were going to show you how to install gutters.
Were using seamless gutters. They cost a little bit more, but they are well worth it. They help prevent your gutters from leaking. Seemed gutters almost always tend to leak after a while.
Well start with one ladder to measure the roof. Once you know how long your gutters need to be, have them cut to length. You can start on any corner of the house you want. Pick up the gutters and make sure they slide up tight underneath the drip edge.
Screw your gutter securely to the facia board or trusses. Facia board is better if your house has it like most houses do. This one doesnt, so well screw into the trusses. Work your way down the side of the house. Secure the gutters firmly every 18 inches to 2 feet. Any farther apart and it will be too flimsy.
Measure the downspouts. Cut them with snips. Use a level to make sure they are straight up and down. They dont have to be, but they will look better. Now put on the downspouts. When you put them together, make sure the top piece goes into the bottom piece.
It should be like this all the way down. That way you get a good flow of water and they wont leak. Put the pipe bands on and screw them to the downspouts with the self-tapping screws.
Thats it. If you do a good job the gutters should last the life of your roof. Thanks for watching. For more information, join us on the Web at About.com.

'Tree', Paul McCarthy's monumental artwork at Place Vendome on Oct. 16 in Paris, France.

Shield your eyes, art aficionados.
A giant inflatable sculpture was erected in Place Vendme in Paris, France, on Oct. 16, and ever since, it has been making waves for locals and tourists alike. The reason may be fairly obvious: The sculpture, called "Tree," looks suspiciously like giant butt plug.
Paul McCarthy's piece of art, which measures roughly 80 feet tall, was installed as part of a contemporary art fair. Despite McCarthy's insistence that his work is simply meant to resemble a Christmas tree, people can't keep their minds out of the gutter.
Some, including those from a movement called the "French Spring" (Printemps Franais), were humiliated by the installation.
(Rough translation: Place Vendome is disfigured! Paris is humiliated!)
But others can't take enough hilarious pictures of themselves hanging out next to a giant sex toy in a public square.
