I would have said Public notices, in short was ADS.
Not sure about the other.

glomerulus
OR....It could be glomerules: compacted cyme of almost sessile and usually small flowers. ( Cyme: cabbage sprout, to be pregnant, swells, grows, an inflorescence in which each floral axis terminates in a single flower; a determinate inflorescence of the type containing several flowers with the first-opening central flower terminating the main axis and subequent flowers developing from lateral buds
glomerulus: a small convoluted or intertwined mass; a tuft of capillaries at the point of origin of each vertebrate nephron that passes protein-free filtrate to the surrounding Bowman's capsule.

ArtSparker, thanks a million for your help and DOH! of course it's ads, what was i thinking of? EEjit!! Mucho gracias amigo :)
Hey Jeanne, ads it is (I is complete blind idiot looking for obscure acronyms) and be-da- hokey, ye had me scratching me head in amazement at the scientificatious words, but they all fitted and sounded so almost plausible and then like a Eureka moment,a bolt of inspirational lightening explodes clarity across the universe and up pops the prosaic simplicity of goosebumps. The penny drops, the jig-saw is complete. You is GENIUS, thank you , thank you ,thank you!
Three cheers for my brainy Americanissimoblogerooneysamigos,
ArtSparker and Jeanne. Pip,pip!
