The latest mid-week update from Eric G dives headfirst into the world of construction, and let me tell you, it's not all sunshine and rainbows. We're talking about a noticeable slowdown in the construction industry, with contractors and subcontractors hitting the brakes harder than a kid on a bike going downhill. Is a construction crash on the horizon? Eric doesn't think so, but he does believe the market is taking a breather as folks hold their wallets tight, waiting to see how tariffs and interest rates will play out. He also spills the tea on HVAC systems, suggesting that if your system is older than five years, now's the time to consider a maintenance agreement. And if you've got some DIY projects in mind, now could be the perfect moment to tackle those big decks and fences while contractors are twiddling their thumbs. Switching gears, Eric revisits a construction site right down the street, where he's been keeping a close eye on a multi-million dollar home. Spoiler alert: the building science—or lack thereof—being employed is enough to make any home improvement enthusiast cringe. With Tyvek house wrap being improperly installed and flexible flashing placed in all the wrong spots, it's a recipe for disaster. Eric's got a knack for spotting these construction faux pas, and he's not shy about pointing them out. He emphasizes how crucial it is for homeowners to know what's going on behind the walls of their new homes, especially when shortcuts like these could lead to long-term damage. He wraps up with a call to action for listeners to stay informed and vigilant, ensuring they don't fall victim to shoddy construction practices. Lastly, we dive into the whirlwind world of smart home technology, where things can get outdated faster than you can say “upgrade.” Eric highlights the frustration many face when their once cutting-edge gadgets become obsolete. Remember that fancy smart thermostat you bought? It might just be time for an upgrade if it's not playing nice anymore. He encourages listeners to keep an eye on their tech and be proactive about replacements, especially when companies decide to cut support for older models. So, whether you're a DIY warrior or just trying to keep your tech in check, Eric's got the insights you need to navigate the ever-changing landscape of home improvement and construction. Tune in for a show filled with valuable nuggets of wisdom and a sprinkle of humor—because who said home improvement couldn't be fun?Takeaways: The construction industry is experiencing a significant slowdown, causing many projects to pause or halt entirely. Smart home technology can become outdated surprisingly fast, often in just a few years. Poor building practices, like improper installation of Tyvek, are being used in high-end home constructions, leading to potential long-term problems. Contractors are worried about product shortages due to tariffs and reduced overseas orders; now might be the time to start your project. Homeowners should consider maintenance agreements for HVAC systems over five years old to avoid costly replacements. Upgrading outdated smart home devices is crucial, as they often become unsupported and may not function properly after a few years.

In the impact space, there is often pressure to work for free or support every cause. You can easily find yourself having to make tough decisions about which projects to take on. Our guest, Rebekah Miel of Miel Creative, will share practical tips pulling from years of experience about how she has managed these experiences, lessons she has learned the hard way, what she learned about how to avoid the overwhelm, and how to make decisions that still align with your values. “In my younger years, I aspired to changing the world. Then reality kicked in, and I settled for 500 square feet.” - Betty Soskin, 102 year old, retired park rangerIn their career, Rebekah Miel has had the good fortune of being able to travel around the globe to hear the stories of frontline community members impacted by everything from climate change to natural disasters to harmful industry. As an empath and an impact-focused entrepreneur, it can be overwhelming. There are too many directions to go in. While it is a noble pursuit to want to change the world, it's important to recognize that making an impact often starts with small, intentional acts close to home. Rebekah notes: "The question I find myself asking over and over is: how can I create change in my industry while staying true to my values? It's not about the size of the impact I make, but the depth and authenticity of it. A common mistake I see is the belief that impact has to be massive to be meaningful. This often leads to burnout or a sense of inadequacy when the reality doesn't meet the ideal. What I want people to understand is that focusing on smaller, manageable projects can often lead to more sustainable and genuine impact. True change is a collective effort, and sometimes the best thing we can do is inspire and empower others to take action alongside us. Other times the best thing is simply show up and listen." Rebekah Miel is that lone pair of headlights driving in the opposite direction during a hurricane evacuation. You'll no longer find her sweating through a Tyvek suit in the lower 9th or eating curry in a refugee camp in Unawatuna, but that doesn't mean she is any less risk-averse. These days she's balancing the death-defying feat of raising pre-teen twins with the act of listening hard for how to be a good citizen in her adopted hometown of Durham, NC. Her current job title is Creative Director of her own creative shop, Miel Creative where she helps make beautiful sense out of a complex world for B corps, non-profits, and other purpose driven organizations. https://mielcreative.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/rebekahmiel/:#BCorp #BeTheChange #BeautifulSense #TheHardSkills #OrganizationalImpactTune in for this empowering conversation at TalkRadio.nyc

Couple, charged in killing ex-husband, loses motion A federal judge refused to dismiss an indictment in which a former Beacon couple faces the death penalty in the alleged carjacking and killing of the woman's ex-husband, who disappeared after returning their daughters to a home on West Church Street. Judge Philip Halpern, of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, on Jan. 19 rejected a motion by attorneys for Jamie and Nicholas Orsini to dismiss the two charges they face - carjacking resulting in death and conspiracy to commit a carjacking - in the disappearance of Steven Kraft. The Marlboro resident has not been seen since April 28, 2020, after he returned the two daughters he shared with Jamie Orsini to her home following a custody visit. The next day, Kraft failed to show up for his job at a deli in Marlboro, and on May 4, 2020, investigators found his 1999 Camry abandoned in the City of Newburgh. One of the earliest pieces of evidence was surveillance footage showing Kraft's car crossing the Newburgh-Beacon Bridge on April 28. Nicholas Orsini is accused of being the driver, and prosecutors say they have camera footage of him at a gas station on Route 9W in Newburgh, where he allegedly used a burner phone to call a taxi to take him back to Beacon. Halpern said in his eight-page decision that the Orsinis' contention that "the government has not alleged (and cannot prove) the required nexus between the intent to kill or harm Kraft and the taking of his car" was a matter to be determined by a jury at trial. His ruling leaves in place the more-serious charge of carjacking resulting in death, which carries a maximum penalty of life imprisonment or death. (The conspiracy charge carries a maximum of five years in prison.) Prosecutors revealed other evidence when they first charged the couple on June 16, 2023, alleging that they began plotting Kraft's murder at least two days before he disappeared. Security footage and a receipt from the Home Depot on Route 9 in Fishkill showed Jamie Orsini buying, with cash, items that included a 10-foot-by-100-foot tarp, duct tape and a Tyvek suit and boots, according to prosecutors. Video from the parking lot captured Nicholas Orsini helping Jamie Orsini load the supplies into the couple's GMC Envoy, according to court documents. That same day, according to the complaint, the pair drove to Newburgh to allegedly determine how to dispose of Kraft's car. Data from their phones and video footage tracked the couple traveling from West Church Street over the Newburgh-Beacon Bridge to Newburgh. Following Kraft's disappearance, the Orsinis traveled "extensively" between Beacon and Amsterdam, in Montgomery County, where Nicholas Orsini's family owns farmland and the couple lived before being incarcerated, prosecutors said. Nicholas Orsini drove to Amsterdam the day after Kraft disappeared, according to court documents. The couple's movements also show Nicholas Orsini buying from the Home Depot in Fishkill two 31-gallon galvanized steel trash cans, an angle grinder and ax, three bottles of charcoal lighter fluid, a flame lighter and 16 bundles of firewood, prosecutors said. He is also accused of using Google to search the term "is galvanized steel fireproof," and the couple allegedly rented space at a storage facility in Middletown, according to court documents.
In today's episode of Backpacker Radio presented by The Trek, we are joined by David “Moondog” Roop. Moondog, alongside his buddy, has done the Natchez Trace Trail, Florida Trail, and 500 miles through New Mexico, not on foot, but instead on skateboard which he refers to as a thru-skate. We learn all about what goes into such a unique adventure, including how his gear differs relative to traditional backpacking, what terrain is skateboardable and what isn't, how sore his push muscles get over the course of a full day of skateboarding, and more. We wrap the show with the first edition of the 2023 AT thru-hiker survey results, the weirdest things we've brought home after a night out, and our triple crown of campaign promises.

In today's episode of Backpacker Radio presented by The Trek, we are joined by someone you are likely already following on Instagram, Matt Lyons known on trail as "Schmutz". Schmutz is a thru-hiker, social media comedian and celebrity. He gives us an overview on his process for making short comedic skits, how life has changed during his rise to fame, and all that's gone into growing his Instagram and TikTok to nearly a half million followers. We also learn about Matt's backpacking journey, including the time he had to tearfully chase a fellow thru-hiker who was carrying his tent in the wrong direction. Schmutz also gives us a preview of his forthcoming documentary about southbound thru-hiking the PCT. We wrap the show opining on why there aren't wild chickens, the triple crown of things that have made us question our own IQs, and some details about how you can get your hands on Backpacker Radio's infamous hair wall.

What you'll learn in this episode: How Kristen decided to start the next phase of her career at Scotland's University of Dundee Why metalsmithing and jewelry attracts people who like a challenge How creating jewelry can be like creating an opera What young jewelry artists can learn by entering competitive exhibitions Why curiosity can help artists overcome shyness and fear About Kristin Beeler Kristin Beeler joined the faculty of Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design at the University of Dundee, Scotland UK in 2023. From 2002-2023, she was Professor of Art and Coordinator of Jewelry and Metalwork at Long Beach City College in the Los Angeles, California area. She is native to the Blue Ridge Mountains of central Appalachia and is a second generation graduate of historically interracial and craft-centered Berea College receiving a BFA in Crafts and Applied Design with a minor in Philosophy (1989). Her Master of Fine Arts in Jewelry from the University of Arizona (1994) was followed later by post graduate studies at Alchemia Jewellery School in Florence, Italy (2011) and Atelier Rudee, Bangkok, Thailand (2013). Solo exhibitions include Integumentum 2021 at Baltimore Jewelry Center, Baltimore, Maryland, Archive of Rag and Bone at Mesa Contemporary Arts Museum, Phoenix, Arizona (2016) and Beauty and Other Monsters at Velvet da Vinci Gallery, San Fransisco, California (2007).

Although any international move comes with fear, Kristin has relied on a sense of curiosity to keep pushing her work froward. She joined the Jewelry Journey Podcast to talk about why certain artists are drawn to metal; how she tries to create context through her work; and why some of the most important lessons she learned were from submitting her work to competitive exhibitions. Read the episode transcript here. Sharon: Hello, everyone. Welcome to the Jewelry Journey Podcast. This is the second part of a two-part episode. If you haven't heard part one, please head to TheJewelryJourney.com. If you look at Kristin Beeler's jewelry, she looks like she's a risk taker, but that's not really true. She has followed a well-worn path, but she also has risk in her work. She received her master's and then became a professor of art at Long Beach City College. She teaches both metal arts and jewelry. She is the Coordinator of Jewelry and Metalwork for Long Beach City College. Welcome back. Did you have to do a lot of looking to find a school like that in the U.S.? Kristin: It was a school my mother went to, so I was second generation. Sharon: Wow! What are your thoughts about metalwork versus jewelry arts? I saw that you did some gloves in Tyvek. It was hard to pin down what you do because it's very esoteric. It has a lot of meaning. I kept asking, “Why this?” Kristin: The work I do is more driven by an idea and trying to build a full context for an idea. The jewelry is part of that context. It's a bit like going to the opera. I love opera, and I love it because it's a full context. The stage is opera. The music is opera. The singing is opera. The costuming is opera. It is all of those things, and those things come together to produce this one idea. I wouldn't say my work is theatrical, but I think it has some operatic qualities when it works well. It's not meant to follow one particular pathway because, as I said, not everything is a piece of jewelry. Some things are meant to manifest through other things, and jewelry is a part of that. Sharon: I see that you've been in a lot of competitions, where your jewelry is judged. Do you have trepidations? I can't imagine doing anything like that. Kristin: It's really hard at first. It's one of the hardest things to get my students to do because when you do it, the risk of failure is huge. You're going to be rejected, but it is such good practice. That's what being an artist is about: trying to find the place where your work fits, and if your work isn't fitting into the place you want to go and into the trajectory you want, figuring out how to make it go into that trajectory. It makes shifts to what you're working on. I haven't done it in quite a long time; most of what I do now is invitational work, but I do find it interesting to enter competitive exhibitions. It does a couple of things. Usually if I'm applying for a competitive exhibition, it could be because I want to get my work in front of a juror, or it's in a location where I want to go, where I have friends. Or it's a theme I like and I find interesting. But I had to go through a period of doing it and becoming O.K. with someone saying no and doing it anyway. When I was in graduate school, I was told, “Be prepared to wallpaper your room with rejection letters. Get rejected as much and as often as you can because it is a skill to build up and not let that stop you.” Sharon: Are you ever rejected if it's invitational? Kristin: If it's invitational, it's because they've seen my work and they want something in particular. Sharon: That must have been a big hurdle in the beginning. To be rejected must have been a big hurdle. Kristin: It probably was. Looking back on it now, it's funny. I was silly to be so worried about that. I think I was lucky that my work was pretty readily accepted. I think I did quite well. Even going into this new career—I'm basically going into a second career—there are moments when I think, “I don't know if I can do this. What was I thinking?” and I can go back to those moments previously where I tried to do something where uncertainty was guaranteed, or I didn't know how it was going to work out. I can say, “Well, I did that, and it worked out O.K.” Sharon: Did SNAG help you? You were on the board of SNAG. Why don't you tell us what it is? Kristin: The Society of North American Goldsmiths is the organization for the field. I have worked with SNAG since 1999 or 1998. That was when I first started volunteering for them. I started working with SNAG because I would go to the conferences at the encouragement of my graduate faculty, and I was kind of terrified. There were a lot of people there whose work I would see in publications or I'd hear about them. I was quite shy, so the easiest thing for me to do was offer to volunteer for something. If I don't know what to do, I'll work, so volunteering was a perfect thing to do. It was intuitive. It wasn't planned at all, but I met so many interesting people by volunteering at the conferences. They would say, “Oh, would you be able to do this?” and I would say, “Well, yeah,” and then I would meet more interesting people. I don't know that it was a great expansion time for my work because there are only so many hours in the day. When you're putting your energy out for one thing, it's not necessarily going in the other direction. So, I don't know that I was accomplishing as much in my studio, but I was meeting really, really interesting people and having some really interesting conversations. I think that that was one of the most valuable things about being involved with SNAG, just getting to know the community in a deep way. I served on the board of SNAG for five years between 2001 and 2005. I've had some job with SNAG almost every year since then, some small thing, helping with exhibitions. I have worked with the Diversity, Equity, Access and Inclusion Committee. I have worked with the Educational Endowment Committee. Currently I serve as trustee for the SNAG Educational Endowment Scholarship Trust. That is my primary role with SNAG at this point. Sharon: Do you recommend it to your students as a way to learn about the field? Kristin: Always, yeah. That and listening to Jewelry Journey. Sharon: I don't know about that. I was thinking about you listening to other people's opinions. I once heard someone say that they felt they had to know who the artist was before they could wear the piece of jewelry. I just felt like, “Well, is it pretty? Do I like it?” and that sort of thing. That's why I would be intimidated. Kristin: It was interesting to humanize all of those things. Often the work can be much richer once you have a better idea of the person who made it. It can alter your perspective on pieces to know who made it. Sometimes you might not want to know, but I think one of the great blessings of this field is that it is full of generous and warmhearted people who are so willing to share what they know. Sharon: Do you consider yourself one of those people willing to share what you know? Kristin: I hope to be, yeah. Sharon: I'm struck by the fact that you say you were shy, because you don't come across that way at all. Does that present itself in your reluctance in going abroad and when you started teaching? Was that a concern? Kristin: Yes, I was pathologically shy, but more than that I was curious. I think curiosity trumps those reluctances if you allow it to. Being curious takes you outside of yourself. You can become involved in other people's stories and other people's interests. When you change that reflection, then it's much easier to get to know people and enjoy them. As I said, my go-to was to do some work and find other people who are doing work and just help them. Carrying the load together is always a good way of lifting yourself up as well. When I started teaching full-time, I spent probably the first several years pretending to be someone who is comfortable in front of a classroom. I don't know that I was, but I could pretend to be someone who was. I think going to Scotland, now that the challenge is there, it's exciting and terrifying by turns, but I'm so curious. I always want to know what happens when you do this or what happens when I do this. Pulling into that curiosity is a life raft. Sharon: Do you have a history with the country? Did your family come from there? Did you visit it a few times? Kristin: No, I had never been to Scotland before I interviewed, but my family has lived in Appalachia for about 400 years. Sharon: Where? Kristin: Appalachia. Sharon: Oh, 400 years, wow! Kristin: Yes, so they have been there for a very long time. Many people from that area came from Scotland, England, Wales, Ireland, so Scottish history was something we grew up with because of this strong connection to Scottland and Ireland. The music that was local to where I grew up came straight from Scottland. The local dances, the crafts in particular. Things that had been brought 400 years earlier were still practiced, and a lot of those skills came from Scottland. Sharon: Do you lie in bed at night, or are you grocery shopping and an idea comes to you and you start on it? Kristin: For my studio practice? Sharon: Yeah. Kristin: There are probably two tracks to that. One is that it's all a long inquiry that never stops. It‘s one little thing that leads to the next. It doesn't have a beginning or an end. It's kind of all in the middle and ideas roll in one direction or another. Pieces may not finish, but I'm committed to finishing bodies of work. I'm really terrible about it, actually. In terms of solutions—I think maybe what you're asking about is solutions to particular problems—those are things that revolve as well. Sometimes I'll see something, or I'll be making something that doesn't make sense in the moment, but I'll just hold onto it. It's like I'm looking for an answer to a problem. It's like, “Oh, there it is in this book or in this drawer of samples I made.” If I waited for ideas to come to me, I'd be waiting a really long time. I have to go out and hunt for them. They're constantly generating, but the solutions to problems plug in at different locations on a very long timeline. Sharon: For instance, on some of the projects, whether you're invited or you decide to enter a competitive situation, once that's done, do you say, “O.K., that's nice. That's done. Now, I'm on to the next thing,” or is it done? Kristin: These pieces often cycle in and out. Unless a piece is purchased, they all belong to this collection of pieces that are shown in different iterations. For group exhibitions, there may be between two and four pieces that are shown together, but for solo exhibitions, there's a larger body of work. Every time I show that body of work, it may have different pieces in that collection that are shown. Sharon: What happened to the gloves that are made of Tyvek? How did you come up with the idea of Tyvek? Kristin: Oh, I love Tyvek. It is such a fun material. Certain materials just didn't appeal to me, and I have all of these Tyvek mailers. I would get things in the mail, and they come in those Tyvek mailers. I saved all these mailers for years and thought, “I'm going to do something with them.” Then I realized you could just buy it. I had kept it because it has this beautiful, papery, silky quality to it which is really nice. It's virtually indestructible until it's not, so it has this strength but this vulnerability as well. I like that about it. From time to time, I have made gloves over the years because I think they're interesting objects. There's such a strong relationship to the body and what we do with our hands. Those gloves in particular were designed with this young woman in mind who had this scarf. I already said I love opera, so having these opera-length gloves, I used a vintage pattern for that. I had her scarf embroidered on these very delicate but strong gloves that were kind of ethereal. That was perfect for my purpose. Sharon: That's interesting. I saw the pictures, but I wasn't sure what it was. That's very interesting. Thank you very much for being with us today. Good luck in Scotland. We'll be reading about you. Kristin: Thank you so much, Sharon. This was so fun. Sharon: We will have photos posted on the website. Please head to TheJewelryJourney.com to check them out. Thank you again for listening. Please leave us a rating and review so we can help others start their own jewelry journey.

Drinking Boys and Girls Choir - "City" from the 2023 album Hey, Listen To Me on Damnably The latest release from South Korean trio Drinking Boys and Girls Choir is a collaborative project with three female artists from their hometown of Daegu. (On this EP, they've also invited special guest Jang Young-eun, guitarist and vocalist of the band igloo.) On today's Song of the Day, they've teamed up with artist Kim Seoul, known for her humorous work in printmaking with hand-colored details. As they write on their Bandcamp, the song was inspired by a conversation with drummer/vocalist Myeongjin Kim and Kim Seoul "about the loneliness and fear that metropolitan cities can give to individuals living in them, especially those cities that feel bigger for women living alone. Inspired by the conversation, the image of the song itself is about comforting yourself, after having experienced those feelings, and comforting fellow citizens who are still in such a situation." For the accompanying exhibition, Kim Seoul crafted a space that looks like her old living room. "The memories of living in a gap between clothes and objects in a small room are reproduced in this work. Through installations made with eco-friendly materials such as Tyvek, and silkscreen engraving techniques, the artist created a space filled with small but precious things which allowed for small citizens in large cities and exhibition visitors to search for other entries."

New court documents released this week reveal that a bone fragment was found when forensic investigators took apart a hacksaw found in a dumpster near Brian Walshe's mother's home. Police also found Ana's COVID-19 vaccination card, her Volkswagen keys, clothing and jewelry. Surveillance footage also reveals that Brian Walshe bought cleaning supplies around the time of his wife's disappearance. The images show Walshe wearing a face mask and pushing a shopping cart in a Home Depot. He purchased several things, including mops, brushes, tarps, Scotch Heavy duty tape, a Tyvek suit coverall, two splash-resistant goggles, and more. When the Walshe home was searched, many of those items were found. Walshe was also spotted at a Lowe's. That is where he allegedly bought $450 worth of tools, including a hacksaw that contained the bone fragment.

Megan Arney Johnston, an independent curator and contemporary art enthusiast based in Stillwater, recommends a trip to Winona to see Water Stories: New Work by Anne Labovitz at the Minnesota Marine Art Museum. Johnston says Labovitz, who is based in St. Paul, goes to the “next level,” involving large-scale paintings and an even larger scale installation that evoke the essence and the importance of water. At the entrance, visitors see Labovitz's large scrolls responding to the Winona area and landscape. Subsequent rooms reveal a series of large abstract paintings, each a different hue, and using layers of paint to create landscapes Johnston calls “atmospheric” and “sublime.” In the next room, there is a room-sized installation of painted Tyvek house wrap. You walk inside and listen to the sounds of Lake Superior at sunset. Capping off the exhibition is a chance for visitors to write their own water stories in little watercolor books and hang them as part of the display. Labovitz “really has it all in the art in this exhibition: installation, painting, site-specific work and social engagement,” Johnston said. The exhibit runs through Jan. 22. The Minnesota Marine Art Museum's focus on our relationship to water means that it also has a connection to our next Art Hound's recommendation, as a sponsor of a Winona-based podcast. Visual artist Anne George of Winona has been listening to the podcast “Back Channel Radio.” The first season dives into the oral history of the boathouse community of Wolf Spider Island, also known as Lower Latsch Island, which is moored in a backwater of the Mississippi River. The podcast is narrated by Gina Favano, who lives in a Wolf Spider Island boathouse. As she delves into local history, past media coverage, and personal interviews, she offers an insider look into this unique community. George says the podcast is “compelling” and “fills in the blanks” even for people who are familiar with the boathouses. The season has six episodes, available on Apple Podcasts and Spotify. Minneapolis-based art enthusiast Robert Borman recommends the musical comedy “Church Basement Ladies: Plowin' Through.” The long-running show features the same four ladies, working at a church in a small Minnesota town as weddings, funerals and the stuff of life pass through. The ninth installment brings us to the year 1975, with its polyester pantsuits, music and (the church basement ladies') slapstick humor. “It's hilarious. It's witty. It has a heart. It's just a great show,” Borman said. “Church Basement Ladies: Plowin' Through” runs through Feb. 15 at the Black Box Theater inside Burnsville's Ames Center.

today, Rob & Joy have Patrick Hutchinson from Parksite talking about DuPont's Tyvek products. We learn about the importance of house wrap & what to look for if building, remodeling or adding on to your home. We learn that Tyvek products has changed the way contractors keep homes dry.
Flood cleanup can be messy, but there are ways to make it go more smoothly. Personal protective equipment, including an N95-rated face mask and eye protection without holes, is a must. Long pants and sleeves are also recommended. Gloves are also crucial for keeping hands and feet dry. Rubber boots are also helpful to prevent shocks and keep feet dry. If you have breathing problems, consult with your doctor before attempting flood cleanup.Storage binsFlood damage can take a toll on a storage bin. Luckily, there are several precautions you can take to protect your valuables. First, you should store your bins in a secure, climate-controlled area. You should also avoid overfilling them to avoid rotting and mold growth. Lastly, label your bins to indicate what is inside them.Wet/dry shop vacsIf you're in the process of cleaning up a flood, consider using a wet/dry shop vac. These machines are designed to remove water and debris from various surfaces. Before using one for flood cleanup, be sure to remove the paper filter and replace it with a clean one. This will prevent debris from clogging the filter and will prevent damage to your shop vac. You can also use a foam sleeve to protect the motor housing from damage.MoisturizersMoisturizers for flood cleanup can make the process of cleaning up flood-damaged areas much easier. After removing the water, it's time to clean and disinfect the surfaces. You'll need clean water and soap. You can also use bleach, one-cup bleach to one gallon of water, and then air-dry the surfaces thoroughly. You should also dry any food surfaces that may have come in contact with flood water. If you're cleaning food surfaces, you should follow the same process as for cleaning and disinfecting other surfaces. You can also use a dehumidifier or an air conditioner unit to keep the air moving.Mold sporesIf you're trying to clean up flood damage, it is important to wear the proper personal protective equipment (PPE) to avoid breathing in mold spores. An N95 type of respirator is the best choice for inhalation protection. Alternatively, you can use a Tyvek coverall to protect yourself against contact contamination. It is also wise to remove overgarments at the worksite to prevent the spread of contaminants. Protective eyewear and gloves are also vital.MosquitoesMosquitoes are a common problem after a flood. Flood sediment can accumulate around your property and inside buildings, which can serve as a breeding ground for mosquitoes. During the initial sweep, empty containers that might have trapped water and remove any debris that is a source of mosquito breeding. Even small items, such as bottle caps, can harbor mosquito eggs. Please visit Service Restoration: check out our flood cleanup in Little RockVirusesIf you live in a flood-prone area, you may have to deal with bacteria, viruses, and other organisms that can be spread throughout the water. These pathogens can cause disease, so you must follow these tips to minimize risk. First, you must avoid skin contact with contaminated flood water. If you must, use soap and hot water to clean your hands. Also, avoid eating contaminated food or items. Lastly, wash your hands frequently with soap and water if you have any open sores. Anyone can use Service Restoration to improve your flood damage restoration in Arkansas.Storing valuables on an upper floor after a floodWhen water damage strikes your home, moving your valuables to an upper floor is an excellent idea. It will make the flood cleanup process easier, and you won't have to worry about ruined items. Keep in mind, however, that the first floor of your home will lose everything below the level of four feet.Service Restoration Inc. is a professional, experienced flood cleanup company in Little Rock that can help you after a flood disaster.

This is Matt Reustle and today we are breaking down DuPont. We admire leaders that are in the trenches with their team members; never above any task and willing to share in risks. But, wow, did the Dupont family set a standard in that category. Whether it was Pierre Samuel Du Pont's 1818 death fighting a fire at their powder mill, Alexis Du Pont's 1857 death in an explosion at a powder yard, or Lammot Du Pont's famous 1884 death in an explosion while experimenting with nitroglycerines. The Du Pont family pushed the limits. In the 1900s the company evolved away from their roots in gunpowder and dynamite and it's hard to find an industry they haven't touched since then. To break down DuPont, we are joined by Seth Goldstein from Morningstar. Seth covers what separates commodity chemicals from specialty chemicals, we get some quick chemistry lessons on what's happening to create these well-known products like Nylon and Tyvek, and why after all of the years as a behemoth in the industry, DuPont has "unbundled" into several independent companies.

We talk about the now torn down facility the band is named after. We talk about Tyvek suits and coping during the pandemic in general. We once again did this one outside. Paul brought his own mic, stand and chair! Paul also runs PLX-FX – a pedal making venture. We talk about that too (or mostly he does as we know not much of that world). Lots of talking beyond that too. A good time to be had / was had.

As soon as Parquet Courts dropped their new album in 2018, I was all ears. The New York band have always been prolific, and political, but this album more than any other was responding very directly to the times. When frontman Andrew Savage joined me for the Take 5, I knew what to do. Spouting strong messages throughout his own music, I gave him the theme “songs to rally around”. Music that, lyrically or sonically, conjured a sense of activism, agency, and creativity in him.
