![]() For help in choosing the best primer check out this earlier post. Keep in mind that primed wood is flexible enough for either option. Your primer should match the paint you want to use: latex needs a stain-block latex or oil-based primer, while oil-based paint needs a stain-blocking oil-based primer. It also forms a protective barrier woods usually soak up lots of paint, which can mean more work – and more expense – that can otherwise be saved. Thanks to the high content of solids, primer creates the smooth surface necessary for the paint to easily glide. Unfinished wood needs to be primed before you apply paint or stain. If you were paying attention earlier, you might have noted we said prime and paint. This significantly reduces your work time by eliminating the need for lengthy drying. If you’re working on a project with a deadline, such as a backyard deck, you may want to go for pressure treated wood that’s been kiln-dried. The wood is ready when it absorbs the water you drop during your test. This may, as before, take several weeks because you’re adding more liquid on top of the chemicals already applied. When clean, the wood needs to dry…again (I know!). I recommend against a strong pressure washer because it can tear up the wood and force water deep into thee wood fibers slowing down drying even more. They also remove chemicals so the primer and paint can properly adhere. Soapy water and a stiff brush will eliminate dirt and grime that accumulate on the surface. But don’t haul out your painter’s whites and paintbrush just yet, you must clean the wood first. Once it does pass your water test, you’re ready to move forward. You might have already guessed that working with treated wood requires some patience. You should wait until you get a reading below about 14%. To be absolutely sure you can use a moisture meter to check the moisture content of the wood. You can generally count on pressure treated wood to dry naturally within a couple months, but sometimes, the process can take longer in cool damp locations. Likewise, keeping lumber in dark and damp conditions can impede the process. Putting it in a warm, sunny spot will help but may also cause unwanted warp. ![]() Many factors can influence how quickly or slowly treated wood dries. If the water beads up on the surface, the wood hasn’t yet dried and you still need to wait. ![]() Touching it will let you know if it’s dry enough for the water test, which involves spilling some water over the wood’s surface. Make Sure It’s Dryįirst on this list is allowing the wood to completely dry. So, let’s get into the specifics of how to paint pressure treated wood the right way. If you paint pressure treated wood with the wrong materials or more importantly too soon you will have a peeling paint disaster under the best circumstances. This is not like painting regular lumber, so you should know beforehand that it will require some additional steps. ![]() The short answer is yes, you can stain or paint pressure treated wood, but it has some important restrictions you need to know first. ![]()

![]() ![]() I wash and dry them and have only rarely had issues with the design peeling. The Cricut care instructions are as follows, however I will tell you I wash all my iron-on shirts regularly with our normal laundry. Which is all the more reason to get a Cricut Easy Press which is the best way to know what temperature the heat is and if you’re applying iron-on vinyl correctly. I think it depends on how well it’s applied in the ironing process. I’ve had others where little edges would start to pull off. I have had kids shirts that I made with vinyl that were washed weekly last for the lifetime of the shirt. Iron-on vinyl lasts surprisingly well if it’s applied correctly. Foil iron-on must be cold peeled, trust me I made the mistake of trying to peel it while it was warm and it makes the foil wrinkly and totally messes it up! Let it cool! Let the graphic completely cool before you peel off the clear plastic liner.I love my Cricut Easy Press! To make sure you have the right Easy Press settings always check the Cricut Heat Guide which will let you choose your materials and then tell you what temperature to set the heat press to. Use a Cricut Easy Press to apply the design.Pre-heat the shirt for 10-30 seconds before pressing the vinyl into the shirt, this helps speed up the adhesion process.If you’re using a Maker choose Foil Iron-On in the menu. Machine settings: If you are using the Cricut Explore move the dial to “custom” material and choose Foil Iron-On from the drop down material menu.If that doesn’t work you can use masking tape to tape down the edges. Try using a spatula or side of a ruler to rub it into the mat. Having trouble with the vinyl sticking to the cutting mat? You might have an older mat.The back of the vinyl will be facing you, it’s usually white. Place foil liner side down onto the cutting mat.Make sure the fine point blade is in the machine.When you use iron-on it’s so important to click that toggle for mirror image to ON. Always Mirror the image before cutting.Don’t use fabric softener when pre-washing the garment. This can help with the longevity of the vinyl. There are a few things you should know when working with this material. ![]() How to use Cricut Foil Iron-On Vinylįoil Iron-on vinyl is a gorgeous material that looks so good on t-shirts! It makes a stunning handmade graphic tee. Heat transfer vinyl is applied with heat of course so you can use an iron but I highly recommend using a Cricut Easy Press, I love mine! Read my Cricut Easy Press 2 Review to see why I love it so much. One of the best things about this project is how little supplies you need!

Samantha gives the player a choice of a wide body kit for their car.Įddie then challenges the player to a race. The player wins a pink slip circuit race for Samantha and reclaims her car to make amends. The player also sees TJ in Samantha's recovered car after he fixed it, but it has been vandalised. TJ takes the junked car for himself after the event.Įddie tries to once again get rid of the player as they come close to becoming the best racer in Olympic City. Samantha totals her Civic's engine attempting to beat the player. The player's willingness in going for it infuriates her. The player eventually builds enough hype to be too hard to ignore and forces Eddie to challenge them to beat Samantha in a sprint race before they can go after Eddie. He mocks the player's skill, saying they have a long way to go to 'roll his streets'. The player's successive victories do not impress Eddie. Samantha does the same from time to time and offers unique visual modifications instead. The player is introduced to TJ, whom promises unique vehicle upgrades in exchange for beating time trial challenges. The player meets other racers and eventually gathers a small list of nemesis that continually challenge them. Eddie is the leader of The Eastsiders and currently the best racer on the streets of Olympic City he also has a girlfriend - Melissa. She shows the player how the console with the races works, who is who, and makes fun of the player's first car. Samantha is the player's friend in the city. They are given a uniquely styled Acura Integra Type R that allows them to easily defeat their opponents, but they are suddenly woken up by Samantha, who tells them to stop daydreaming.

In order to turn these opportunities into reality, you will need to be proactive. Though generally this card does present you with many opportunities, it doesn’t mean that everything is decided for you. Take time to consider what your options are. The seven of cups suggests that there are a number of ways you can better your financial standing. Whatever you end up deciding will serve you well so, act decisively and with confidence. But none will get you what you desire if you don’t choose one path and commit to it. ![]() You have plenty of ways to make progress in your career, and they can all serve you well. Remember, a potential path is only as good as the steps you are willing to take down it. This plurality of options is generally a good thing, but it may be important to be wary about how much time you spend dreaming about something instead of taking steps to make it happen. If this card appears in relation to your career, you may be presented with many different ways you can advance at work. The seven of cups depicts a person confronted by a variety of options. It is important to think of all the options, as well as look into any red flags or gut feelings of “something is wrong”, you may feel about the relationship. With love, we may be tempted to rush into a situation, letting lust and infatuation guide us towards something that in the long run won’t last. Take your time and consider things carefully only diligent communication and evaluation will give you what you desire. The 7 of Cups tarot love meaning can also signal that all the choices may look tempting right now, but though they glisten with promise, they may be illusions. If you are single, you may have to make a decision between different lovers, or perhaps between love and family, or love and career. Several decisions lie ahead of you with the appearance of the 7 of Cups in a love tarot reading. ![]() Several financial opportunities, caution about financial choices Many career options, make a choice and stick to it ![]() Upright Love MeaningĬhoosing between lovers, be cautious about romantic decisions This applies in the upright meaning and also the Seven of Cups reversal meaning. ![]() The Seven of Cups is also linked with temptation. You will need to separate what is real and what is not so that you can make better choices. As such, you will need to separate what is real and what is not so that you can make better choices. Your ideas may be so up in the clouds, developed only on your imagination. There are some cases when the Seven of Cups may show that you are living in ways that are not necessarily grounded in real life - that your actions are guided by illusions that you feed yourself. It is important to exercise caution when you are making your decision, as the card itself seems to show there is not only wonders and treasures that are available to you, but also monsters and shadows. If you are unable to make a decision due to the many options that are available, you should evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of each option so as to make the best choice. At one point in life, you will need to stop fantasizing and face the reality of life. In another, the Seven of Cups is a reminder that although it is good to have dreams and wishes, it is even better to take action attaining those dreams. In one sense, the Seven of Cups indicates that you are a dreamer who is both excited and afraid of the things that you see in your unconscious. You should be careful of wishful thinking and be alert of the choices that you make. To draw the Seven of Cups in a reading shows that you need to clearly see the shadows and visions in your imagination, not only in your dreams but also in the real world. ![]() ![]() ![]() This topic will be encountered frequently in the field of structural engineering. It can be inches to the fourth power, in4 if we use the Imperial System of Units. If we look at the International System of Units, the unit of measurement is the metre to the power of four, or m4. The dimension unit of the second area moment is L4 (length to the power of four). When the axis is perpendicular to the plane, it is also designated as J. This characteristic essentially describes the deflection of a planar form under a force.įor an axis in a plane, the area Moment of Inertia is generally indicated by the symbol I. The area Moment of Inertia, also known as the second area moment or the 2nd moment of area, is a feature of a two-dimensional plane form that illustrates how its points are distributed in the cross-sectional plane along an arbitrary axis. Rotating body systems are further classified as follows: Rotational axis (distribution of mass relative to the axis) The Moment of Inertia is affected by the following factors: What are the Factors that influence the Moment of Inertia? It is mostly determined by the distribution of mass around a rotational axis. The Moment of Inertia is frequently expressed about a certain axis of rotation. kg m 2 is the SI unit for a Moment of Inertia. The angular mass or rotational inertia are other names for the Moment of Inertia. In simpler terms, it is a number that determines the amount of torque required for a certain angular acceleration in a rotating axis. The Moment of Inertia is defined as the amount indicated by the body resisting angular acceleration, which is the sum of the product of each particle's mass and its square of the distance from the axis of rotation. In the next paragraphs, we will learn more about this subject. MOI is commonly used to compute angular momentum. The Moment of Inertia is an essential subject that is addressed in the majority of Physics problems that involve mass in rotating motion.

Preventive prescriptions have a copay, but are not subject to the deductible (see list of preventive medications below). The plan is a Blue Cross Blue Shield (BCBS) plan that offers the same qualified medical services as the MIT Traditional and Choice Health Plans, including 100% coverage of the cost of medical preventive services (see preventive services fact sheet below). It's important for you to fully understand how an HSA works before you enroll in the HDHP. If your health plan has a deductible, the coinsurance is the. You will need to manage an HSA, which you will use to pay for your qualified health care expenses. Unlike a copay, which is a flat amount, coinsurance is a percentage () of the cost of the service. The HDHP will require you to take a more active role in your health care than just paying a health plan premium. The exception is for preventive care, which is covered at 100 under most health plans when you stay in-network. The HDHP accommodates new MIT employees who have had a high deductible health plan and HSA with a previous employer. Higher deductible: If your deductible is higher it means you are required to pay for your medical care out of pocket up to that amount before your health plan begins to help pay for covered costs.Compared to the other health plans, the HDHP has a lower premium (the amount taken out of your paycheck each pay period for health insurance), a higher deductible (the amount of covered expenses that you must pay each calendar year before the health plan begins paying for services), and a tax-advantaged health savings account (HSA).The HDHP gives you more flexibility in how you pay and save for health care, while still providing comprehensive, high-quality coverage for you and your family.You may be interested in an HDHP because: ![]() ![]() ![]() (If N rulings occupy a total width w, then d = w/N.)

This is due to the fact that many Jamaican words have their origin in various African languages and the language syntax is mostly derived from the various African languages. It is to the point where a native speaker of a non-Caribbean English dialect can only understand a heavily accented Jamaican speaker if they talk slowly and forego the use of the numerous idioms that are common in Jamaican. Jamaican pronunciation and vocabulary are significantly different from most other English dialects, despite heavy usage of English words or derivatives. In the sense that Italian, Catalan, French, Spanish, and Portuguese are all derived from Latin, no one would call any of these languages Latin creole or Patois. Of course it must be understood that all languages are derived from usually more than one already existing language. Jamaican is the descendant of a 17th century creolization process which, simply put, consisted of West and Central Africans acquiring and nativizing the vernacular and dialectal British Englishes (including significant exposure to Irish and Scottish varieties), with which their forced labor brought them in contact.

You can decide for yourself by holding your own table-turning session. Explanations for the phenomena include the direct actions of spirits or otherworld entities, the effect of “mesmerism” (a sort of hypnotism), or an unconscious muscular action known as the “ ideomoter” effect. The table-turning phenomenon (some call it “table tipping”) can be particularly startling, especially given that many believe the information gleaned from these sessions cannot be obtained from other sources. If three or four letters emerge that seem to indicate a specific name or word, then don’t hesitate to call out the entirety of the word and see if you receive a “Yes” or “No” in response. Sitters may want to agree on a system wherein a tilt to one side signifies “Yes” and a tilt to another signifies “No.” Sitters also can call out letters of the alphabet and tease out names and words. Have a few questions prepared in advance, then call them out as the table begins its gyrations. We’ve even seen tables scoot across the room, as if pushed by invisible hands. The table may tilt to one side, and then rock back to the other. Sometimes the movement is subtle, and sometimes it is quite vigorous. Success is never guaranteed, but we’ve often observed that tables will tip for sitters who are willing to wait, concentrate and remain still. This process likely will continue for minutes, maybe tens of minutes, without a noticeable movement. ![]() Some may want to close their eyes to concentrate - either on a single entity or (if they believe in residual hauntings) on the specific home or building where the table is located. The sitters should continue singing, in unison, but remain patient. It’s also important that the tips of the sitters’ fingers remain planted near the table’s edge. ![]() This results in the sitters’ elbows being extended slightly. They should do this lightly, while simultaneously keeping their palms up and away from the table surface. Strange as it may sound, we recommend that you also lead your friends in rounds of an easily recognizable and repetitive song, such as “Row Row Row Your Boat.”Īs your friends sing, each should place their finger tips on the edge of the table. We typically dim the lights and then begin with a guided meditation or short prayer. (It’s better, however, if the table isn’t too heavy.) Now gather a few friends, interspersing each at regular intervals around your table. We typically prefer three-legged tables, but the four-legged variety also works. First you need a wooden table - any small one will do. The practice was common among spiritualists in both America and Europe as far back as the mid-1850s.

They had spent the previous years leading worship at now-defunct megachurch "Mars Hill," and most of their offerings had been short EPs with rearranged hymn covers. A collective of musicians led by Seattle native (and writer/producer/frontman) Chad Gardner, KK were an odd group. It was full of innovative people, like Joel Houston (Hillsong), John Mark McMillian, and others, but there was no real incentive for people to innovate, since the formula worked so well for congregational worship.Įnter Kings Kaleidoscope. ![]() Now, to be fair, Hillsong had released Aftermath a couple years prior (2011) which was their attempt at experimenting slightly with electronic sounds and breaking their own formula, but it was definitely a mixed bag, a transition album, with the sounds they were trying to achieve never really reaching their potential until Zion (2014). In this lane, well known worship band Hillsong United had essentially created a formula for what worship music at its best was “supposed” to sound like, and essentially every church or group making music for corporate worship were trying to tap into that success. On the other you had “worship music ” songs made for congregational singing in church. This was essentially the Jeremy Camps, TobyMacs, and Chris Tomlins of the universe, spewing out radio-friendly “I’m a 35 year old evangelical mom who lost her keys and it’s a rough day but God’s going to turn it around and it’ll be a “GOD DAY” songs or some other form of this same formula. On the one hand you had "CCM” (Christian Contemporary Music).

Additionally, the truly iconic voice of Chad and his genius behind the beats helps to give their music a lasting impression in your mind. A more recent example would be their popular rendition of Grace Alone which starts out slow and worshipful but ends with a bang as the full brass and instrumental sections come in. They can incorporate rap, worship, instrumentals, and everything in between into their projects. ![]() ![]() Their truly unique sound is what separates them from the rest. As time went on and the band developed, in 2016, they released their album Beyond Control, which reached number 6 on Billboard’s Christian Albums chart and number 16 on the Independent Albums chart. In the following year, KK recorded their first EP titled Sin. Led by the singer/songwriter Chad Gardner, Kings Kaleidoscope, or KK, was formed in 2010 at Mars Hill Church, where Gardner led worship. Although they can be lumped into the Christian genre, their music is far different from anything else that is currently being produced in that department. Kings Kaleidoscope is a faith-based band from Seattle, Washington. ![]() |
