2019 is about hacking the self, about seeking inspiration and not simply being influenced. It's about experimentation and playfulness. It's about creative gorging. It's about exploring the new. I decided to take a total social media break for 100 days to see what I could do with a little extra time. I'm also doing my second body hacking challenge of the year with 28 days complete plant-based diet. I started out the year with a 28 day ovo-lacto-pescatarian challenge which went very well. Every 10 days or so I'll attempt to post some daily observations, notes, etc. Expect lots of pictures of vegan recipes for the next 28 days!

Work hard, play hard, create hard. That's happiness.

Movie: The Gospel of Eureka @ Hollywood Theatre
Really sweet film about the tension between fundamentalist Christians and queers in rural Arkansas. (4/5)

I can see signs of a new recession. Just walking around finding all the empty retail spaces. People are going out less, are spending less. We will partly Kondo-tidy-joy ourselves into a new recession. There is only the present.
Movie: The World Before Your Feet @ Cinema 21
I really wanted to love this film. I think it's an amazing idea, but I could not connect with Matt Green. There is a story here, but his process isn't storytelling, it's reportage. Left me feeling ultimately flat. (3/5)
15 February 2019 – 3/100
What is the story? What is the why ? To continue, to explore, to adventure, to tell stories. To play. Is it the story of continuing, finding purpose, finding self? It is more than just process, or is it just process?

Wearing wool and running in the rain. Sore and delighted. "Attention is the beginning of devotion." (Mary Oliver (RIP) – Upstream). Impatient baking failure.
TV: Season 1: The Travelers
Binge watched season 1. Enjoying it even though there isn't enough story about future conditions to make it fully satisfying. Really craving more back story. Concept and characters are good though.
17 February 2019 – 5/100
Butt in the saddle for 16+ miles on Aknot the Krampus. Maybe a little too much for the first ride, maybe not. Slept a ton. The energy levels feel a bit low, but I might not be eating enough overall. Pushing myself physically feels awesome – flow. Also, stopped to stretch my arms on Williams and found $10 lying in front of me. Used it to buy a vegan BBQ sandwich "almost-bonk-buster".
New Experience: First time mountain biking. Did an out and back from the house to Leif Erickson drive in Forest Park.
18 February 2019 – 6/100
The flow state is peace. Must optimize time spent in flow state. Cooking puts me into flow state. Having too much fun making vegan food!
Concert: Barrie & Miya Folick at Mississippi Studios
Miya Folick is a freaking force of nature. Energetic, fun, passionate small show with an engaged crowd. Went on a whim, and so glad I did!
19 February 2019 – 7/100
First week of freedom from meat and social media (that is anything but). Alive and vital. Pursuing an even healthier physical and mental course led by more vibrant dreams and a clearer head. S.T.A.R.T
20 February 2019 – 8/100
The ability to turn off the monkey lends sharper focus. Immediate and freeing.
Inspiring: Lili des Bellons animation Alma. The colors and style are invigorating.

The wheat bloat is real. Starting to make good forward progress. "Spend the rest of your life celebrating." My nephew received a 2019 Sloan Research Fellowship award, many congrats to him!
Food for thought: When Algorithms Think You Want to Die.
One of the reasons I'm taking a break from social media is directly due to the algorithms, they have ruined the experience for me which used to be all about surprise and delight. I'm finding that again by revisiting blogs. Articles like the above paint a bleak picture. As if it wasn't bad enough…

Running has improved dramatically over the past two weeks. What has value? Mindfulness. Creativity. Travel.

A minute's silence was held at Tyseley Loco Works at 11.00am today to mark Remembrance Day and to remember all of the Railway Employees who lost their lives fighting in The Great War over 100 Years ago, WW11 and in subsequent wars. Railway employees from locomotive sheds such as Tyseley near Birmingham gave up their jobs on the Railways to fight for their country, many of whom never returned.
'The Unknown Warrior' is expected to bring in the crowds at Barrow Hill roundhouse, near Chesterfield for the three day LMS Gala of the year - 'Ticket to Ride'. Starting on Friday 25th September and running until Sunday 27th September, visitors to the Gala will be able to view the latest progress of 'The Unknown Warrior'.
The LMS Patriot Project is pleased to announce that the Unknown Warrior will be displayed at the Barrow Hill 65 gala on 25th - 27th September.
The Barrow Hill 65 event is planned to be the biggest gathering of former LMS motive power for many years.
More details to follow.
The LMS-Patriot Company, the charitable Project that is building the new Royal British Legion Endorsed National Memorial Engine 'The Unknown Warrior', is pleased to announce its intention to build a new Fowler 2-6-4T once 45551 'The Unknown Warrior' is up and running.
The new tank engine will feature a parallel boiler and will be numbered 42424. Fundraising will not begin until 'The Unknown Warrior' is completed.
Building the new national memorial engine from scratch can easily be described as hard as running a marathon but that's what Andrew Laws, Marketing & Publicity Director for The LMS-Patriot Project is attempting to do. It will be Andrew's first marathon, and Hamburg is a great flat course ideal for his first run over 26.2 miles. Andrew had been previously working in Hamburg so chose the Hamburg Marathon as he had trained on part of the city centre course.

I heard the Lord saying, "Australia, the word over you is no longer delay, but now are your greatest days."
Suddenly, I could hear the sound of birthing, like a woman in labor and I kept hearing the words, "It is time to forge and bring forth. It is time to forge and bring forth."
The words 'forge' and 'bring forth' were booming in my spirit so strongly.

If you've been following either my personal social media or Indientry's at all for the past month, you're well aware of the fact that two weeks ago I moved down to Athens, Ohio for college. The transition has been a little difficult, but not bad, as I've already begun to make friends and bond over some of my favorite bands (The Cordial Sins and Jetty Bones, anyone?).
In a previous post in July, I mentioned that I wasn't sure what my posting schedule would look like as I began classes and things got more hectic, but as of right now, this will be the last Thursday post for a while. Class started on Monday, and until I get my bearings regarding the workload and time management, I'm just going to post on Sundays for the sake of ease and not having to worry about Indientry on top of everything else!
(Hopefully, this will also help me stay consistent and not let the blog slip behind other obligations and to-dos like it did at times over this past summer.)
If anyone is interested in keeping up with the things that I write for other publications, I've set up a "professional" Twitter account at the request of my Journalism professor. It can be found here (the handle is @AbbyJJeffers) and I'll retweet or post everything I'm working on there.
I won't be giving up Indientry by any means, though, as this is my baby and I've worked to stay consistent for three years now. In fact, I'm only posting this heads-up as a way to be totally transparent; I won't be able to cover as much content, and I'll re-evaluate once I feel like I'm settled into the routine of classes and living on my own.
In the meantime, happy end of summer and beginning of school to you all. One thing I've been loving here is taking a walk around campus to enjoy all of the green and the trees, and so I hope for all of us that as the weather cools down, life isn't too busy to take a break, go for a walk outside, and look at the beautiful world around us.

Peru Central School student Reese Duprey featured in the district's first Buddy Bench video. The video portrayed an act of compassion between students.

Peru Central School has created three new superheros to teach kids lessons on compassion, self-control and citizenship. Pictured above is Captain Compassion (kindergarten teacher Meg Tolosky), Super Self-Control (elementary physical education teacher Stephen Komanecky) and Citizen Prime (second grade teacher Mike Castine).
PERU — Peru Elementary School student Brooke Smith beamed as she recalled how a new initiative at the school revealed her inner compassion.
The first-grader saw one of her classmates sitting on a bench alone during recess.
And then she asked the student to swing.
Smith not only made a new friend, but also received compassion badge and a shout-out on the loudspeaker during the morning announcements.
Meet the Buddy Bench.
When students don't have someone to play with, they'll sit on one of the benches in the hopes another child will ask them to play.
"I helped people," Smith said. "It was exciting."
Every kindergarten, first-grade and second grade student receives the same rewards for showing compassion to a fellow classmate.
This system is part of the elementary school's initiative to teach children a variety of character traits.
Since October, the focus has been compassion.
"Exclusion is an early form of bullying," said K-2 Principal Michelle Rawson. "If we teach them to accept others now, they'll be more likely to engage one another in the future."
Rawson said she came up with the idea of a Buddy Bench through social media and installed five benches throughout the K-2 campus in the beginning of the school year.
Recess monitor Charles Mowers said the blue-colored seating areas have been very successful.
Pictured above is first-grader Brooke Smith and K-2 Principal Michelle Rawson. Smith showed an act of compassion earlier last week and was awarded with a badge and loudspeaker announcement.

Rawson said she's also seen success outside of the classrooms.
During winter break, for example, one student shared how he helped his father shovel and gave him lemonade when he looked tired.
That student drew a photo and wrote a sentence of this scenario, which was posted on the elementary school's board of compassion.
With the help of Captain Compassion, who is kindergarten teacher Meg Tolosky, students are reminded to think of others on a day-to-day basis.
Earlier this week, the elementary school held the second character education assembly of the year, introducing the next trait: self-control.
In March, the student body will learn about citizenship.
With each new trait comes a new badge, goal and superhero, who features in an educational video showing students how to portray that trait.
During the last assembly in June, Rawson said the faculty, staff and three superheroes will tie all the character trait lessons together into one main message:
"Everyone is a hero," she said. "And your superpower is your character strengths."
Several classrooms have incorporated their own badges for making different efforts, such as completing homework and helping teachers and students.
Photo by Teah Dowling
Student involvement in this effort has been heightened primarily because of the recognition through loudspeaker announcements and badges, said Rawson.
Once obtained, students take these character trait badges and tag them onto their blue lanyards.
Several classrooms have incorporated their own badges, including ones for completing homework and helping teachers and students.
Rawson said these little prizes act as an incentive for kids to do better in school, both academically and behaviorally.
Rawson said eventually she hopes to incorporate these lessons outside of school. Installing Buddy Benches in the town's parks is one example of a future goal.
"We want to make it cool to be compassionate both in and out of school," she said. "And we're starting to do that."

Up to 20% linked to ALA most likely will be adjusted into Environmental protection agency but quantity than half-a-percent can just be changed onto DHA, in accordance with to per study uploaded in the specific American Publication of Clinical Nutrition inside of September the year 2008. This means that ALA is sufficient to raise Omega-3 numbers.
Gender while age play golf a key role around how ALA is almost certainly converted. Your current same examination in October 2008 established that beginning women converted ALA firmly into EPA worries a beat that used to be 2.5 times greater than men!
[2] Upper Fibre
Flax is extremely remarkable in both choices soluble as well as a insoluble much. Eating some tablespoons related flaxseeds a day should certainly provide at just least 20% of those need just for fibre.
Because this fibre found in flaxseeds cannot make broken along during digestion, some of all the calories contained within just flax can no longer be passed. This perhaps help together with weight lowering and the detoxification of the colon. It what's more tends to reduce increased appetite for sugar, a heartening fact concerning diabetics.
Flax contains high stages of mucilage gum. This valuable water-soluble dietary fibre forms a major gel while in your stomach muscles and moves through your gastrointestinal region undigested. The mucilage aids the stomach from clearing quickly into the moderate intestine. Compared to well whenever increasing the amount relating to nutrients the public absorb, that makes you feel fuller and presumably prevent someone from over-eating.
[3] Lignans (antioxidants)
Flaxseed may be packed who have antioxidants, danger the write called lignans which happen to be fibre-related.
Oxidation must be a chemical substance reaction exactly who can construct free radicals, unstable atoms or compounds that are almost always highly reactive chemically towards other materials. The birth of cost free radicals does lead regarding chain allergic reactions that can damage the body.
An antioxidant is the new molecule the inhibits the oxidation behind other compounds. Lignans can be of help reduce some of the damage induced by by costless radicals. They help regrow cells moreover have anti-aging properties. Cause they can be found vital wearing protecting your cells due to becoming malignant.
Lignans may very well be fund by using unprocessed factory foods which include seeds, existing grains, beans, berries and nuts. Smoking, obesity, less than ideal gut effectively being and unquestionably the use including antibiotics should affect some levels of lignans circulating in your body.
Lignans further have antibacterial and antiviral properties. This means consuming flaxseeds can enable reduce common colds and times of influenza.
Lignans may possibly also aid the growth of probiotics in the gut as outlined by to medical studies published to the Us National Stockpile of Remedy National Organizations of Nicely in 2012.
[4] Cholesterol
Flaxseeds, taken regularly, may want to reduce your incredible cholesterol levels, according that will a study published doing Nutrition and Metabolism in February 2012. It totally does so merely increasing an amount concerning fat passed through intestinal movements.
The study of 20 subjects got that daily a flaxseed drink dropped fasting total-cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol by 15 and 15%, respectively, moreover increased each excretion because of faecal system fat and strength by 50 and 23%. This is very much because you see, the soluble fibre in flaxseed traps flab and blood cholesterol in currently the digestive circle so it's can't wind up absorbed.
The disolveable fibre simultaneously traps bile, which is always made near the gallbladder from cholesterol level. The bile is and after that excreted typically forces the body you can make a whole lot. This, found in turn, helps make up an excessive amount of cholesterol thus lowering cholesterol in this blood.
[5] Digestif health
The the ability of flaxseeds to encourage digestive physical shape has been well confirmed.
When your business excrete, your stool should evacuate really like toothpaste new out of a tube, soft coupled with with petite resistance. The type of fact which often 27% attached to the cannabis seeds are fibre means those eating flaxseeds is a of each best non-chemical remedies when considering constipation.
To keep yourself regular, you also can add 100 % or bottom flaxseeds – your porridge or healthy smoothies in their morning or take a few tbsp of flax seed oil around a magnifier of fruit flesh juice. The will quite possibly give you a enormous dose magnesium which will assist hydrate your stool and as well , relax the muscles most typically associated with your gastro-intestinal (GI) tract.
Flaxseeds customer support your digestion health on the inside several other, well-researched, ways. For example, the ALA in flaxseed can can be helpful reduce aggravation and provide help to the boat of some GI area.
Flaxseed may possibly also getting beneficial at persons having financial problems from digestive system ailments such as Crohn's disease (an inflammatory digestive tract disease). The seeds induce beneficial belly flora while provide food for micro-organism in your colon the idea help wash waste away from your programme.
[6] Cancer prevention when it comes to (mainly) women
When flaxseeds are tried as fraction of a brand new healthy meals they possibly will be in a very position to prevent certain layouts of cancer, including breast, prostate, ovarian and bowel cancer.
According to a survey published while Clinical Disease Research while May 2005, dietary flaxseed has the potential for you to reduce tumor growth in the post-menopausal patients with chest enlargement cancer.
Other studies have shown that all women reduce its risk of developing breast area cancer when they dine large sizes of celebrity fibre, lignans, carotenoid vitamin antioxidants (pigments who give fruits and patterns such even as carrots distinct vibrant orange, yellow, and green colours), stigmasterol (a steroid created from plants), vegetables along with poultry. For this reason, some cosmetic surgeons now plant-based eating habits for reducing the concerns of varieties of cancer related in unbalanced body's hormones.
Another study published through June 2013 in one particular Journal including Nutrition situated that our own lignans in flaxseeds would possibly also restrict the risk of ovarian and endometrial cancers. The endometrium is the blackout lining of some uterus.
[7] Load loss
Since flaxseeds are standard of in perfect shape fats and even fibre, everything can assist you can feel full for longer. Then you may end inside eating a lot less calories overall, thereby reducing your fats.
An inflamed body tends to transport on to excess weight. ALA helps reduce aggravation. another technique flaxseeds may help your organization reduce those weight.
Thus uploading a many teaspoons coming from all ground flaxseed to your personal soups and thus smoothies around a monthly basis will need to have your positive effects on a person's weight.
There would be other benefits of eating flaxseeds within a constant basis:
The large amounts at B vitamins, along with essential greasy acids, in flaxseeds diminish the flakiness of arid skin and as well as improve breakouts and meals. These dietary vitamins make curly hair and nails stronger, whole lot more resistant on to damage. Our seeds lubricating effects reduce dry opinion. In addition, Flaxseed oil, mixed offering essential oils, can end up used even though a pores moisturiser.

Bruce Dan, Who Helped Link Toxic Shock and Tampons, Is Dead at 64
By DENNIS HEVESI
Published: September 10, 2011
Dr. Bruce Dan, who as a leading federal researcher helped establish a link between the life-threatening disease toxic shock syndrome and the use of tampons, prompting a major shift in the way tampons are produced, died Tuesday in Baltimore. He was 64.
The cause was complications of a bone marrow transplant he received last year after learning he had leukemia, said his wife, Lisa Stark, a correspondent for ABC News.
Dr. Dan, who later became a television medical commentator, was a member of the Toxic Shock Syndrome Task Force, which was created by the Center for Disease Control in 1980 after a virulent outbreak of the disease. For two years, with no official leader, the group's members traveled around the United States and to foreign countries acting as disease detectives delving into the daily habits and medical histories of victims.
"Bruce was one of the most critical people in all these studies; his contributions were central to the findings," said Dr. Arthur Reingold, who was a member of the task force and is now a professor of epidemiology at the University of California, Berkeley.
Toxic shock syndrome, caused by a potent strain of the bacterium Staphylococcus aureus, is an infection that produces high fever, a drastic drop in blood pressure, organ failure, a skin rash that frequently covers the entire body and, if the patient lives long enough, a peeling of the skin in layers. Patients can die within days.
The task force found that a large proportion of cases involved previously healthy women who had been stricken during a menstrual period, and that tampons were a highly significant risk factor. One study, in which Dr. Dan played a central role, showed that one brand of tampon, Rely, made by Procter & Gamble, carried an elevated risk because its lubricant, Pluronic L92, greatly increased the level of toxins in the bacterium.
"He was an extraordinarily energetic and imaginative investigator," said Dr. William Schaffner, an infectious disease specialist at Vanderbilt University, "and, as such, provided much of the critical information that led to the conclusion that the use of Rely tampons provoked this infection."
Based on the task force's findings, Rely was removed from the market and other tampon brands were redesigned so that their surfaces were far less able to provide a growth medium for the bacterium.
The findings received wide news coverage, with Dr. Dan often before the cameras answering reporters' questions. That struck him as another way to make a contribution, through journalism, so in 1983 he became a senior editor at the Journal of the American Medical Association, a position he held for nine years.
While at the journal, which is based in Chicago, he was hired by WLS-TV, a local station, as its on-camera medical expert. In 1993, he moved to New York to become executive editor and anchor for the Medical News Network, which provides daily newscasts directly to doctors' offices.
In 1981, Dr. Dan received the C.D.C.'s highest award for epidemic investigation, the Alexander D. Langmuir Prize, and the United States Public Health Service Commendation Medal.
Bruce Bespalow Dan was born in Memphis on Dec. 20, 1946, to Merrill and Hope Bespalow Dan. Besides his wife, he is survived by a daughter, Rachel; a son, Ethan; his parents; two brothers, Terry and Henry; and a sister, Wendy Dan.
Dr. Dan's shift from medical researcher to television commentator was an indication of his range of interests. He received his bachelor's degree, in aeronautics, from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1968, and a master's degree, in biomedical engineering, from Purdue a year later. While at Purdue, however, he decided that he really wanted to be a doctor. He graduated from the Vanderbilt School of Medicine in 1974.
"I have no idea why he decided to go to medical school," his wife said. "He was like a renaissance man, always reinventing himself."

State Control as an Alternative
Your State Should Control Your Local Resources
Every state is blessed with immense mineral and other resources! Every state has enough to launch into prosperity. Japan and some of so-called Asian tigers hardly started with potentials that most states in Nigeria have. Over the years, systemic deceptions and blights - ranging from the euphoria of 1980s oil glut to ethnic rivalries, inefficient military governments, economic mismanagement, deliberate misinformation and ignorance - have prevented Nigerians from optimally exploiting all that they are blessed with.
Every state should wholly control – or partially over a set period of time – its own resources while paying taxes to the federal government. Derivation principle as applied is a veneer under which the federal government perpetrates the fleecing of Nigeria: it is one of lifelines for the Nigeria unitary styled system of government founded upon corruption and injustice. It also helps to sustain an overbearing and uncontrollable bureaucracy that has hindered progress while also being used as a choice weapon of humiliation and cheating against minorities in Nigeria – especially peoples of the Niger Delta region. Resource control, on the other hand, is the magic wand in contemporary economics for empowering and prospering an entire cross section of the socio-economy while promoting individual and property rights expected in a true federalism.
The National Assembly should institutionalize resource control as a substitute for the unwholesome application of derivation principle through sensible legislations of relevant laws and abrogation of existing retrogressive ones. Resource control should not only be synonymous with the Niger-Delta region clamor for justice and equity, but a consensus agitation that ultimately empowers and prospers every Nigerian. For example, there are commercial quantities of Bitumen and Feldspar Ondo and Ekiti States, respectively – see Table 2 below. Under present system, the federal government has hardly exploited both resources and, therefore, 13% derivation principle hardly applies for consistent and meaningful revenue generation.
Why should Ondo State (population – 2,195,069) 4, with about 42 billion metric tons of Bitumen (twice Nigeria crude oil reserves and with potential capacity to provide over one million jobs) not at least have 15% resource control and set out to explore rather than wait endlessly for the federal government that notoriously mismanages every venture it touches? With that state's abounding intellectual capital and shrewd managers, how can it not become a model within few years of taking charge? Replace Ondo or Ekiti state with Benue, Bauchi, or any state of the federation, together with its abounding resources, the truth still remains.
Now, we see Ondo, Benue, Bauchi, Enugu and Ekiti indigenes and politicians, having not fully appreciated their endowed wealth – see Tables 1 and 2, being misguided by the federal government and consumed in idiosyncrasies of ethnic politics, cut their noses in order to spite their faces in rising to endorse an unfair derivation principle over resource control laws because they identify resource control mostly with Niger Delta oil politics. We also see Niger Delta politicians and leaders foreclosing the better alternative by capitulating to the faulty 13% derivation principle as if that better alternative is rocket science.
When crude oil reserves would have been depleted (they will be depleted someday) and the Niger Delta ecology devastated will not other Nigerians retired to their states and regions to force resource control so that they and only they can benefit from endowed minerals? Will not the majorities' benefiting and ethnically dominated hierarchy in today's oil industry then pressure for resource control to further frustrate, cheat and anger the Niger Delta people?
Not all states have each of listed minerals in commercial quantities. Those states, having obtained control over their minerals, may form joint mining or exploration ventures with others for mutual benefits. For purposes of encouraging research, development and mining of regional resources, Regional Resource Development Commissions – fashioned after the NDDC but with focus on R&D – may be set up in each of Nigeria geo-political zones. Below is a table that profiles key mineral resources in Nigeria:
|Solid Mineral

|Utilisation %
|Price Indicator (Average(USD)
|40 Million
|Niger, Osun, Ogun, Kogi, Kaduna

Vacuum packaging machines are generally divided into external vacuum packaging and internal vacuum packaging machines. In terms of vacuum degree, the internal vacuum packaging machine is higher than the external vacuum packaging machine, and the external vacuum packaging machine generally does not. Suitable for food packaging, the specific differences can be understood as follows.
1. Differences:
A construction. The external vacuum packaging machine is placed in the packaging bag of the packaged object through the air suction nozzle to extract the air; the pumping method directly seals the vacuum indoor air into a vacuum and seals it.
Two packaged objects. The external vacuum packaging machine is mainly used for the packaging of anti-oxidation products such as electronic products; the internal vacuum packaging machine is mainly for packaging products with high vacuum requirements and cleanliness, such as food products.
Three applications. The external vacuum packaging machine does not require a very high degree of vacuum, but the packaged product is not only anti-collision, but also beautiful in appearance; the most important function of the internal vacuum packaging machine is to remove oxygen and prevent the growth and reproduction of microorganisms. , requires a high degree of vacuum.
Four gas sources. The external vacuum packaging machine needs to be connected to a gas source, and the internal pumping method only needs to bring its own vacuum pump to complete the packaging process.
2. The same thing:
A vacuum packaging system consists of. A complete vacuum system includes vacuum pumps, vacuum gauges and vacuum solenoid valves.
Two workflows. The main workflow of the vacuum packaging machine is vacuuming, heat sealing, returning air and circulation.
Summary: Choosing an external vacuum packaging machine or an internal vacuum packaging machine depends on the product to be packaged by the customer.
3. Different vacuum methods:
Internal pumping: discharges the indoor air to make the bag produce internal and external pressure difference, so as to achieve the purpose of compression packaging. The internal vacuum packaging machine is mostly used for food packaging, so it is also called food vacuum packaging machine.
External pumping: The air directly in the bag can be used to achieve low vacuum. (Minimum 3kpa) vacuum ensures the condition of the packaged items is neat.
4, the vacuum pump is different:
Internal pumping: only oil pump
External pumping: all types of oil pumps, oil-free pumps, air compressors, etc. can be used.
5, the efficiency is different:
Internal pumping: single efficiency standard: 2~3/min However, if the pressure chamber specification is larger than the package size, multiple packages can be packed at the same time.
External pumping: 5~6/min may vary depending on the package size and vacuum.
6, the limit of the length of the seal:
External pumping: sealing length is 800mm for standard equipment
Internal pumping: the length of the seal is 800mm, which needs to be customized, and the cost is high.

Low ceiling lighting – Changing a ceiling lamp is a sufficiently basic task that most homeowners should be able to perform themselves. Although high ceilings, it's quite simple. Just stay relaxed and extra careful when using a ladder and turn off electricity where you will work. A good rule of thumb is to provide at least 1 watt light bulb for each square meter in the living room or bedroom and double the amount of a kitchen or workshop. With fluorescent lamps, count about 1/3 watts per square meter in the living room and 1/2 watts per square meter in the kitchen.
24 Photos Gallery of: Low Ceiling Lighting Ideas
Turn off the power to the low ceiling lighting circuit. Set up for the steps where the ceiling fixture is located and remove the screws that hold the fixture to the ceiling. Use an inductive voltage detector to double-check that the power is turned off. Disconnect the future wires and remove the old luminaire and strap. Attach the new metal mobile phone over the outlet box using the supplied screws. If there is a ground wire in the box, attach it to the earth screw on the tape.
Connect the new low ceiling lighting to the wires by winding the ends of the wires clockwise under the wrenches (black cable to brass-colored screw, white wire to silver-colored screw), or by connecting them to the wires of the new luminaire with cable connectors. Fold the wires in the outlet box and attach the new game assembly to the mounting strap with the screws. Install the lamp and mount the lighting cover or the world. Reset the power that was turned off and test the lighting by operating it. Step down from the ladder carefully.lights for low ceilings kitchen, low ceiling lighting

Greek and Japanese Architecture
For a great many years, architecture has been a breaking point for different artisticeras in history. Some of the most famous "works of art" have been chapels, temples, and tombs. Among the most dominant and influential eras of great architecture are the sophisticated, stoic Greeco-Roman periods and the more mystical, elemental Japanese eras. These two very distinct and very different eras have more in common than you may realize.
When work began on the Parthenon in 447 BC, the Athenian Empire was at the
height of its power. Work on the temple continued until 432; the Parthenon, then,
represents the tangible and visible blossoming of Athenian ...view middle of the document...
Japan's ancient castles and palaces, timber houses, tatami-mat tea rooms and Zen gardens,
Shinto shrines, and Buddhist temples, as well as the latest shopping centers, sports
facilities, residential complexes, office towers, department stores, and high-tech structures are some excellent examples of Japanese Architecture (hkuhist2.hku.hk).
Japan is described as a country of wood, and the reverence of natural materials. The depths of the love and admiration that the Japanese people have for wood are famous, which is similar to the Greek love of pristine marble and its smooth surfaces. This can be seen in an old Japanese expression "plants and trees all have something to say", Japanese believe that trees have a soul and say they can sense spirits, or "kami", within them. It is trees that form the core which nurtures the sensibilities about nature held by the Japanese people. It is thus natural for architecture in Japan to be based on wood. Many structures are made of wood, ranging from shrines and temples to palaces and homes, and in doing so grand structures have been created (Stokstad).
Castles and palaces dating from the end of the 16th century, including Oda
Nobunaga's Azuchi Castle and Toyotomi Hideyoshi's Osaka Castle and Jurakudai Palace,
are tall castle towers that rise into the sky at the center of groups of magnificent buildings executed in the Shoin style, decorated with carvings and wall paintings done on gold backgrounds. In some of these castles, tea rooms with plain thatched roofs were favored, with the rooms made as small as could be built. These two elements of magnificence and plainness jointly formed the tastefulness of the Momoyama period (1568-1600).
However, these two factors by no means contradict one...

And while on the topic of the vehicle vendors at the parking area by Central Park, today Mayor Kevin Bernard added that there have been additional problems. Over the years there have been complaints about some of their behavior and according to the Mayor; even the police have had to be involved.
Kevin Bernard – Mayor Orange Walk Town
"These people have been informed and we have said these things before, the problem that we are having with these vehicle vendors is that they think they own the space around the park and they are totally wrong and I have one message for them is that you will be moved whether by choice of by force and that we are saying to them is that the park area is not going to be allowed for vending, the people of Orange Walk have said that to us while campaigning we want our park and the park is now renovated and there are other amenities that will be coming to the park shortly with the playing ground and other things these are for the kids, the park is for our family, and they will need to pay for the use of those spaces that is the position of this council, these people cannot come here and take free ride when they go to Belmopan and they go to take their vehicle to sale they have an area in Belmopan where they have to go they can't go anywhere they want either, when they come here and want to dictate to this town what they want to do we can't allow that to happen and when they go to Belmopan I understand it is ten dollars a day and they are refusing to pay a dollar a day here in Orange Walk, we were charging them a dollar a day and not one of them came in to pay so we said you know what this cannot continue we will stand our ground and I ask the people of Orange Walk to support eh council's decision. These people have been gambling in the park we have had to send police over there sometimes and in fact I will go further in saying last year when the benches were put up some of them damaged the benches and so we can't continue to allow these ignorant people to try and dictate to us at the council or to the people of Orange Walk what they want to do."
We attempted to obtain comment from the vendors this morning but they refused to grant us any.

This is the beginning of a new series on difficult issues.
Australia is currently embroiled in an often bitter debate about marriage. The debate extends into other areas of what we sometimes call morality. But where does morality come from, who decides what is good or evil, right or wrong? Throughout history many have tried to find an alternative to God or a supreme being who has the right to decide but their options have been found wanting.
Currently the basis for moral decisions seems to be 'whatever makes me happy'. But what does the Bible say? Are our moral choices determined by what brings happiness or are there moral absolutes which we must submit to?
[Update] Sermon Notes are now available.

Don't worry, this post has nothing to do with Ke$ha. I said tech TALK.
Yesterday I decided to do something smart with my tax return before I blow it all on things best left to the imagination. I decided that the time had come to buy a desktop computer specifically for my writing. I use a laptop as my daily computer and my tablet when I'm at work but I have a nice desk that is the perfect writing station save for the fact that it didn't have a dedicated computer. It had a monitor, keyboard, etc. so I could hook up my laptop whenever I wanted. Unfortunately, I'm a lazy person so I rarely ever wanted. Thus, my desk mostly just collected dust and clutter.
So, as I left work yesterday morning I was on a quest. After stopping by several places and not seeing much, I finally found it. I wish I could say I bought the biggest, most powerful beast available and the male in me screamed this was exactly what I must do.
Reality, on the other hand, dictates that at this point in my career I need to save money whenever possible, at least until my writing starts paying for itself. If I was truly being honest with myself about why I wanted this computer then I didn't need some monster. What I really needed was the cheapest computer that would do what I needed it to. The one I found fit the bill perfectly.
I bought the HP p2 1322. It has 4 gb of ram and a 500 gb hdd. Truthfully, I was hoping for something with just a bit more power but at $250 OTD I just couldn't resist the price and it should be plenty for basic word processing and research.
I rushed home with it and couldn't wait to start playing with it. The computer I mean. Pervs.
The first thing I did was remove the side cover so I could take a peek inside. The case is almost empty. Motherboard, HD, DVD drive , and plenty of air. It almost looks as if someone gutted a laptop and put it into a tower.
No matter. Time to set it up. One problem. I had to go back out and buy an internet cable long enough to reach.
Finally I got everything set up and turned it on, just itching to start playing with windows 8.
I was decidedly underwhelmed.
While I'm not completely against the idea of apps on a computer, I think they are unnecessary and in this case, need a lot more development. Apps are great on a phone, but why bother with them at all when you can run full programs? I quickly shut the apps window or "start" menu as they call it and went to the desktop.
"Ahhh," I thought "Finally something familiar. Wait, where's my start button?"
I guess I'm old fashioned, but I prefer to have a menu to access all my programs rather than cluttering my desktop with icons for everything I use. More importantly, why would you leave something like that out after getting people familiar with it for the last twenty years? Luckily, after a little help from google, I discovered several third party add-ons that let you add something resembling the old start menu. It was easy to do but I just don't understand why I had to.
Also, every time you download a program it adds an icon (or twenty, depending on the program) to the new "start menu" which then has to be unpinned from the menu. Again, not a huge deal, just a PITA.
In short, while it's usable, windows 8 is completely counterintuitive for someone who has been trained to do things a certain way for the past twenty years or so.
Oh, a couple more gripes regarding the apps. Why no intuitive way to close an app when you're in it? You have to bring up the popup menu and select the start menu. Was it too hard to code in a little red X?
Also, why would you force me to merge my Skype with MSN messenger to be able to use it? There's a good reason I stopped using messenger in the first place. I was tired of constantly getting invitations from fake women who want to let me see them naked and probably give me a virus in return. (Reminds me of that trip to… uh, never mind). Anyway, that's the end of this old man ranting about new tech. I'm sure I'll get used to it but I definitely don't consider it an upgrade.
On a side note, I was considering doing Tech Talk Thursdays (or maybe Tuesdays) but the fact of the matter is that while I love tech and would love to do regular reviews, I just don't have all that much of it, nor do I have the money to buy it and what I do have is outdated. However, if any of my readers work for tech companies, I would be happy to review any free samples they want to send me. ;~}

At the outlook, web analytic looks simple. After all it is the data about who visited the website and all about the traffic. However, if you need to make useful business decisions based on web analytic data then things get really complex. In this articles we will explore, generic problem that many small businesses or websites face with regard to web analytic.
Google trends gives an interesting alalysis of Analytics and Statistics - usage of these words in the web. In the last one decade, there is an inverse trend between the words Analytics and Statistics. There are numerous arguments to differentiate between these terminologies and many have argued they are more same than being different. Nevertheless, if we have to believe Google search then people are liking more Analytics and less Statistics compared to the past.
Here is an interesting statistics about numbers games on synonyms - analytics, BI, big data, statistics, and data science. Powered by icrunchdata, Big Data Analytics Jobs Index provides a benchmark estimate for visualizing the present state and future job growth trends in Big Data, Analytics, Big Data, Data Science, Hadoop and Statistics job categories.
Big data and data-driven decision-making are key factors in the current advanced analytic market. This years Gartner quadrant for advanced analytics delivers a mix of good news and bad news for vendors in the advanced analytic category. Clearly there is up move for vendors such as Microsoft, Alpine, and Alteryx.
Web analytics helps to answer how data from a web server's log can be harvested to generate useful and actionable business intelligence, particularly when the data is combined with existing customer and sales data in a Data Warehouse. Wiki page defines web analytics as "the measurement, collection, analysis and reporting of web data for purposes of understanding and optimizing web usage".

Armenia's General Prosecutor's Office has informed Hetq that it made an official petition for the assistance of Cypriot law enforcement and Interpol in the offshore financial scandal implicating Armenia's Prime Minister and the Locum Tenens of the Ararat Diocese of the Armenian Apostolic Church.
The names of Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan and Archbishop Navasard Kjoyan appear on a registry document of a company registered in Cyprus to which large amounts of cash from bank loans were funneled.
Both men have denied any link to the company.
The Prosecutor General's Office says that the preliminary examination is ongoing but that it has received no report from Cyprus.
The signatures of the two are also undergoing forensic examination in Armenia. No information as to the validity of the signatures has yet been revealed.


text: Mortality After Lumbar Fusion SurgeryJuratli, Sham Maghout, MD, MPH*†; Mirza, Sohail K., MD, MPH¶; Fulton-Kehoe, Deborah, PhD, MPH∥; Wickizer, Thomas M., PhD**; Franklin, Gary M., MD, MPH‡§Spine: April 1, 2009 - Volume 34 - Issue 7 - p 740-747 doi: 10.1097/BRS.0b013e31819b2176 Surgery Buy Abstract In Brief Author InformationAuthors Article MetricsMetrics Study Design. Retrospective population-based cohort study. Objective. To describe mortality after lumbar fusion surgery in Washington State workers' compensation claimants in the perioperative period and beyond. Summary of Background Data. Although lumbar fusion surgery can be associated with serious complications, perioperative mortality is generally considered rare. Population-based mortality estimates have been limited to surgery in older adults. Methods. We identified all Washington State workers' compensation claimants who underwent fusion between January 1994 and December 2001 (n = 2378) and assessed the frequency, timing, and causes of death. Mortality follow-up was concluded in 2004. Death was ascertained from Washington State vital statistics records and from the workers' compensation claims database. Poisson regression was used to obtain age- and gender-adjusted mortality rates. Years of potential life lost, percent of potential life lost, and mean potential life lost were calculated for the leading 5 causes of death and we calculated the risk of death associated with selected predictors. Results. Among the 2378 lumbar fusion subjects in the study cohort, 103 were deceased by 2004. The 3-year cumulative mortality rate was 1.93% (95% confidence interval, 1.41%–2.57%). The 90-day perioperative mortality rate was 0.29% (95% confidence interval, 0.11%–0.60%). The risk of perioperative mortality was positively associated with repeat fusions. The age- and gender-adjusted all-cause mortality rate was 3.1 deaths per 1000 worker-years (95% confidence interval, 0.9–9.8). Analgesic-related deaths were responsible for 21% of all deaths and 31.4% of all potential life lost. The risk of analgesic-related death was higher among workers who received instrumentation or intervertebral cage devices compared with recipients of bone-only fusions (1.1% vs. 0.0%; P = 0.03) and among workers with degenerative disc disease (age- and gender-adjusted mortality rate ratio, 2.71) (95% confidence interval, 1.17–6.28). The burden was especially high among subjects between 45 and 54 years old with degenerative disc disease (rate ratio, 7.45). Conclusion. Analgesic-related deaths are responsible for more deaths and more potential life lost among workers who underwent lumbar fusion than any other cause. Risk of analgesic-related death was especially high among young and middle-aged workers with degenerative disc disease. This is a large population-based cohort study that examines mortality after lumbar fusion surgery among workers with an average follow-up of 6 years. The 90-day perioperative mortality was 0.29%. Analgesic-related death accounted for 21% of all death and 31% of all potential life lost. The risk was higher among workers with degenerative disc disease especially workers aged between 45 to 54 years.

"The news spread around Emure-Ile, and then around Owo, first among Isaac's relatives and then his school friends. Over time, "Missing in Action" became 'Had Not Seen'. The British Army Had Not Seen Isaac." – Another Man's War
Setting the scene in Nigeria, 1941, Another Man's War, paints a picture of a life changing event in Nigeria's history. At the peak of the Second World War, the British Army was to recruit soldiers from the Western Coast of Africa, also calling it the Royal African Frontier Force. A boy of 17, from a small rural village Emure-Ile, would join the force and pledge allegiance to the King, without knowing much about the cause of the war. Isaac Fadoyebo, would later blame his hasty decision on 'youth exuberance'. Isaac couldn't have predicted that a war that will take him across the seas, a war he saw as an opportunity for adventure, would be the war that will change him for the rest of his life, at a very ripe age of 19.
Another Man's War, is a beautifully written account, which transports you back to the early 1940s, in the heat of Nigeria's rural landscape, detailing the innocent ignorance of the locals yet the incomparable valour of the youth that enabled them to sign up for an unknown adventure, into a war ridden jungle, where the Japanese were praised to be undefeated fighters. In his account, years later, Isaac would fondly recall his opposition as "[The Japanese] very good fighters. The Japanese people, they fight to the last man, the last ammunition, the last drop of blood. Oh, they are dogged fighters."
Barnaby Phillips, determined to get Isaac's story out, to revive a forgotten hero, produces a book which is intensely researched, bringing together a number of characters. These perspectives particularly help the reader understand how the war impacted the British, as well as the African soldiers, equally. They shared the same fears, similar letters from home and same human insecurities, around campfires as black and white became one. The divisions of race were diminished by the adverse conditions the soldiers, both white and black, found themselves in. It was a raw state of war and became the best example of the bond of humanity, more than any other link.
Isaac, stranded behind enemy lines, in the thick Arakan jungle, during Britain's 'Burma Campaign' during the Second World War, survived nine months, severely injured, at the mercy of generous locals. Another Man's War takes you to the tragic time Isaac spent in a purpose-built shelter, in the very wet Arakan, with a bullet in his right knee and another in his left side. He and another one of the comrades, David Kargbo, together cheated death.
Another Man's War, tells a story of a forgotten hero, who's medals are 'Not Yet Decided' by the British Army, but nevertheless, he took pride in his participation in the Burma Campaign, without knowing the campaigns significance in the bigger picture. The title of the book being self-explanatory, Isaac fought another man's war, without knowing its full extent.
The detailed account of Isaac's story, serves as a hanger where other accounts accompany the drama, accounts from British officers, accounts from African soldiers, the thousands who left behind wives, and families, not knowing their fate or the certainty of return, the soldiers found solace in faith and songs from home, as they made new acquaintances in the new lands they came across. On their return, the soldiers were to come back with new-found knowledge and self-confidence and importance. This would later drive momentum for the struggle for independence in many African states. The Second World War was a war between two great empires, the British and the Japanese, little was known of the pivotal impact it would have on the politics of many countries involved, eventually leading to the ultimate collapse of the British Empire.
Phillips writes a poignant tale of an individual caught in the midst of world politics, which is bound to be similar to many others. It is an attempt to revive our forgotten heroes and the generation that forfeited what they held close, and to recognise these sacrifices.
Another Man's War is available on Amazon, in Paperback and Kindle versions. The documentary can be viewed on Youtube.

Review by Lynn resident Steve Duffy –
This Christmassy stage adaptation is based on the classic film, Irving Berlin's White Christmas, which starred Bing Crosby and Danny Kaye.
Stepping into the dancing shoes of Crosby and Kaye are James Clow (Bob Wallace) and Jeremy Benton (Phil Davis), two war veterans who bring their popular vaudeville act to a Vermont inn run by their tough as nails former General Waverly who is down on his luck.
Making a stop at Jimmy's Back Room, Wallace and Davis recruit Betty (Trista Moldovan) and Judy Haynes (Kaitlyn Davidson), a sister-duo, to help them out. As for the romantic chemistry of this four-some, there is none.
Clow's vocals are strong, but he lacks the charm needed for a leading man. Benton is great as the dopey and scheming side-kick.
The second act opens with a spirited tap number "I Love a Piano," partnering Davidson and Benton. The intricate dance steps were amazing and a crowd pleaser.
The film and stage versions differ, but it is the music that is the real star of this production. The simple sets help you focus on the performers and their lively dance sequences.
White Christmas lacks some of the charm of the film version, but it is still full of sentiment and nostalgic holiday cheer that will leave you satisfied.
Show runs 2 hr and 30 minutes including intermission
Irving Berlin's White Christmas: The Musical is now playing at the Citi Center Wang Theatre through December 28th. For more information about the show and to purchase tickets visit www.citicenter.org

After two years of working with KDE, we think it is now time to share the results of our efforts to create a restricted KDE as part of our Linux-based thin client project that is now nearing completion. A write-up of our design and strategy is available as well as the patches that we used to customize KDE to our needs.
In a restricted desktop (kiosk-mode), the goal is to prevent the user from:
Michael Goffioul, the main architect of the new KDE Print system, has posted an HTML version of the presentation he gave at LinuxTag. The presentation is complete with screenshots and gives a good overview of the KDE Print technology featured in KDE 2.2. More info, screenshots and photos are available from the KDE Print site.
Sure to put an end to countless discussions on the ever-lively kde-look mailing list, and to cut off a stream of "wishlist" bug requests, KDE CVS (look for it in the upcoming KDE 2.2-beta1 release) now features task-grouping in Kicker, the KDE panel.
Our recent poll (courtesy KDE.com) on the upcoming KDE 2.2 suggests that the area of
This new KDE tutorial on IBM developerWorks is designed to teach you about KDE themes: Learn how to create, save, load, and share the fundamental look and feel of the KDE environment. After completing this tutorial, you should feel confident in your ability to customize KDE to fit your personal working style. (free registration required).
KDE developer Michael Goffioul today announced that he is actively addressing an area in KDE that warrants improvement: printing. He has committed source code to KDE CVS for a new KDE printing system to replace the limited Qt printing framework.
Support for LPR, CUPS and PDQ printing systems is already there.
There have been countless requests from KDE users, on the dot, on the lists, and even elsewhere, for a KDE Installer and Updater. Nick Betcher (aka Error403) has stepped up to the challenge and now needs your help to make this project really happen. His current code is in CVS and the project is in active development.
Bradley T Hughes has implemented multihead support for KDE 2.1, and is currently commiting the code. This is one fine feature masquerading as a bugfix but which should make a lot of people with multiple monitors quite happy.
Up to now, the KPart component model was limited to embedding in-process parts. XParts is an extension written by Matthias Ettrich, Simon Hausmann and Lars Knoll to extend kparts and make it possible to embed out-of-process components. The approach chosen is toolkit independent, as can be seen by their choice to embed Mozilla. Read on for the full announcement and details.

We needed Uncle Sam?
9 comments:
Just when you think it's safe to go back in the water. I thought I'd forgotten this irritating ad for a brand no one in their right mind would have tried to sell here.ReplyDelete
There's a reason the ad campaign couldn't save Uncle Sam in the long run - it was an irritating campaign but not irritating enough to be memorable.
On the other hand, I will go to my grave cringing at regular intervals when the WDYGI slogan pops uninvited into my head. I remember the slogan and the campaign because they were mightily irritating, but don't think I've ever noticed what the product was. Serves 'em right.
OMG FC. WDYGI. It was for a small supermarket chain, I think. Was Dawn Limb the one in the ad? It was horrible. Ohhh FC, I am just going to have to hunt it out and post it sometime, just to annoy you.ReplyDelete
Mother urged us young teen boys to use Uncle Sam. To ABI Brother, she will still now screech out, have you put deodorant on, after the have you got a hanky, and have you got banana.
No toilet paper FC. Hanky might have done the job and be thrown away.ReplyDelete
It was Victor, and I don't think it was around for very long.
I always thought it was the arrogance of US ad execs who thought the whole world would be impressed by Uncle S.ReplyDelete
No, we're not impressed by ANYONE!!!ReplyDelete

CLEVELAND, Ohio (AP) - Aspirin maker Excedrin donated over $7,000 to complete a fundraiser to pay for a parade if the Cleveland Browns finish the season with a "perfect" winless record.
Cleveland sports fan Chris McNeil created a GoFundMe account in late October to raise $10,000 to pay for a Jan. 6 parade to celebrate a Cleveland Browns 0-16 season, which has occurred just once in NFL history.
New Jersey-based GSK Consumer Healthcare, the manufacturer of Excedrin, said Thursday it would kick in $7,683 to complete the effort because the company wants Browns fans to know "we understand their pain."
The Browns are 0-12 with four games remaining.
McNeil says if the Browns actually win a game this season, the donations will be given to the Greater Cleveland Food Bank.

I love wood walls and really wanted one in my guest bathroom. But with so many boys running in and out of my house – I worried about cleaning it (if you know what I mean!😉). So I decided I would try laminate flooring for easy wipe down. Now after a year of use, I am ready to share that it works! Please excuse my dark photos – I wasn't thinking "blog post" when I did this DIY, but I have so many ask about it so I thought I had better share!
What is laminate flooring?
Laminate flooring is "a multi-layer synthetic flooring product fused together with a lamination process. Laminate flooring simulates wood with a photographic applique layer under a clear protective layer." Wiki link here
Laminate is easy to clean and has a smooth finish. If liquid is allowed to sit on it for long periods of time it can warp, just like any wood wall. But some laminates even come water resistant if you are especially worried.
Here is my 60 second video to watch the full process – you can pin this post for later as well!
Before and After:
Supplies Needed:
- Laminate Flooring (I used Lakesure Pecan from Home Depot at .79 cents a square foot – steal!)
Tools Needed:
- Measuring tape
- Level
- Circular Saw
- Finish Nail Gun
- 1.5 inch Finish Nails
- Ladder
- Stud Finder
Step One – Pick Laminate
The Home Depot has tons of options at every price point. I was looking for inexpensive. Traffic Master has 3 colors at .79 cents a square foot. I snagged Lakeshore Pecan. It cost me under $40.00 to do my whole wall.
Measure your width and height, then multiply together for your square footage.
Step Two – Cut Your Laminate
My wall was super basic, so I used my circular saw to cut all my strips. If you have to cut special pieces you can use your jig saw.
Step Three – Prep Your Surface
You will wipe down your wall and then search for studs. Once found, make a vertical line down the wall so you can see where they are the whole time you are installing. You will need to place your nails into the studs or the laminate will not hold strong. You can use wood glue as well, but it makes it pretty permanent. You will tear off some of your sheet rock to remove it.
Step Four – Install
You will use your nail gun to install your 1.5 inch finish nails. These will make the holes so tiny that you won't have to repair them.
Grab your ladder and level as well. You will want to make sure your strip is level. Matching it to the ceiling doesn't always mean it will be straight.
Place your first strip up, make sure it's level, then place a nail in the top and bottom of each stud area of the strip.
This brand of laminate had a hook style connection for each sheet to attach to the last one (most do). So I would insert the next piece into the installed piece and then pushed it down and nailed in place.
We taught my mom how to use the nail gun while she was visiting! She was so proud of herself!
Getting behind the toilet is hard. So Mike attached a chunk of strips together and then shimmied them behind the toilet before install. This made it SO fast and and easy.
He was pretty proud of himself 😂🙈.
And there you have it! A super easy wall that you can wipe down fast. It adds alot of character to a space!
Here is a link to other wood wall posts I have done including shiplap and peel-n-stick!
