  • Rest & Refuge Installation Instructions
    Rest and Refuge™ Rigid Core Flooring Suitable for installation on all grade levels Tips for a successful Installation: Most installations will need approximately a 10% cutting allowance added to the square footage of the room. Proper conditioning of the job site is necessary. Flooring planks should not be exposed to sudden changes in temperature. Store, transport and handle the flooring planks in a manner to prevent any distortions. Distortions will not disappear over time. Store cartons flat, never on edge. Ensure that the flooring planks are lying flat at time of installation. Installations of carpet, metal strips and other transition moldings should not push fully into the flooring and should allow for some slight movement wherever practical. Protect the floor from heavy-rolling loads, other trades, and movement of appliances by using sheets of plywood or similar. Rest & Refuge does not require acclimation unless the installation site conditions are colder than 32°F or higher than 100°F (35°C) for 48 hours before or during installation. Under these conditions a 4-hour acclimation period of the floor covering is recommended. Where the room is larger than 20’ (6.1 m) by 30´ (9.14 m) or 500 sq.ft. (46.45 sq.m.) a minimum of 1/2˝ (12.7 mm) expansion zone is required around the perimeter of the room as well as against any fixed objects or Multi-Purpose moldings must be used to compensate for this movement. In areas larger than 52’ by 52’ or 2,700 sq.ft. the use of T-moldings or Multi-Purpose moldings is required.

  • Jon Bon Jovi
    Jon Bon Jovi Jon Bon Jovi is an American musician, singer, songwriter, and actor, best known as the lead singer and founder of Bon Jovi. Throughout his career, he has released two solo albums and eleven studio albums with his band which have sold over 200 million albums worldwide. Jon Bon Jovi was born John Francis Bongiovi, Jr. in Perth Amboy, New Jersey the son of two former Marines, barber John Francis Bongiovi, Sr. and florist Carol Sharkey. He has two brothers, Anthony and Matthew. His father was of Sicilian and Slovak ancestry and his mother was of German and Russian descent. He has stated that he is a blood relative of Frank Sinatra. He spent summers in Erie, Pennsylvania, with his grandparents as a newspaper salesman. As a child, Bon Jovi attended St. Joseph High School, in Metuchen, New Jersey, during his freshman and sophomore years. He later transferred to Sayreville War Memorial High School in Parlin, New Jersey. // 1 / 9 Jon Bon Jovi Bon Jovi spent most of his adolescence bunking school to opt for music activities instead, and ended up playing in local bands with friends and his cousin Tony Bongiovi, who owned the then famous New York recording studio, The Power Station. As a result, his academic records displayed less than spectacular achievements and poor grades. By the time he was 16, Bon Jovi was playing clubs. It was not long before he hooked up with keyboardist David Bryan (real name: David Bryan Rashbaum), who played with him in a ten-piece rhythm and blues band called Atlantic City Expressway.

  • Recommended Work Practices for Removal of Resilient Floor Coverings
    Recommended Work Practices for Removal of Resilient Floor Coverings Warning Do not sand, dry sweep, dry scrape, drill, saw, beadblast, or mechanically chip or pulverize existing resilient flooring, backing, lining felt, asphaltic "cutback" adhesive, or other adhesive. These products may contain asbestos fibers and/or crystalline silica. Avoid creating dust. Inhalation of such dust is a cancer and respiratory tract hazard. Smoking by individuals exposed to asbestos fibers greatly increases the risk of serious bodily harm. Unless positively certain that the product is a non-asbestos-containing material, you must presume it contains asbestos. Regulations may require that the material be tested to determine asbestos content. RFCI’s Recommended Work Practices for Removal of Resilient Floor Coverings are a defined set of instructions addressed to the task of removing all resilient floor covering structures. 1 NOTICE Various Federal, State and local government agencies have regulations governing the removal of in-place asbestos-containing material. If you contemplate the removal of a resilient floor covering structure that contains (or is presumed to contain) Asbestos, you must review and comply with all applicable regulations. This booklet replaces all prior editions of the RFCI and Armstrong Recommended Work Practices Publications. Please note that these recommended work practices are subject to change as new practices are incorporated. It is your responsibility to determine that the recommended work practices you use are those in effect. Important Information for Installers of Resilient Floor Coverings Concerning Existing Resilient Floor Covering Structures • Vinyl-asbestos tile and asphalt tile contain asbestos fibers, as did some asphaltic "cutback" adhesives and the backings of many sheet vinyl floorings and lining felts.

  • Jon Bon Jovi Was Haunted by an Image
    Jon Bon Jovi was haunted by an image. It was a striking black and white image, created by artist Jerry Uelsmann, of a proud, historic stone house anchored by deep roots. For Jon, “that picture told our story…now it’s our album cover,” he said. That image was in his mind while writing the title track of Bon Jovi’s 14th studio album, This House is Not for Sale, which finds Jon returning “home” on his own terms, to the same label he signed his first (and only) record deal with. Produced by John Shanks and Jon Bon Jovi, much of the new album was recorded in the same New York City studio where the band cut its first album in 1983 - Avatar (formerly the Power Station), with additional recording at Electric Lady Studios. “The band became even closer over the past few years as a result of what we’ve been through and, fortunately, it all worked out with the label,” he said. “Now we have a great album with something to say and nothing to prove.” “This House Is Not For Sale” is a song that kicks the door open with “These four walls have got a story to tell, the door is off the hinges, there’s no wish in the well.” The four walls represent the band and here Jon owns his legacy: “I set each stone, I hammered each nail.” “The song is about my integrity and what I was going through these last three years. As the song says, ‘this heart, this soul, this house is not for sale’.” With those words, the curtain rises on an album about a band that has endured the changing tides of the music industry over three decades with unparalleled success.
