![]() ![]() Look for vinyl flooring options with a protective top layer or surface treatment that repels stains and makes cleaning easier. Different vinyl products have varying degrees of stain resistance, so it’s essential to consider this factor when shopping. When it comes to vinyl flooring, the most significant advantage is its resistance to stains and spills. However, there are a few additional factors to consider when choosing vinyl flooring, such as: Stain Resistance Whether you’re looking for something modern or traditional, vinyl flooring can meet your needs. It’s affordable, easy to install and available in various colors and textures to suit your style. Vinyl flooring is a popular choice for many homeowners. Things to Consider When Choosing Vinyl Flooring If this is a concern for you, we recommend avoiding high-VOC vinyl flooring and choosing a low-VOC floor instead. Off-gassed VOCs can adversely affect health and an indoor environment, particularly without windows or ventilation, will lead to higher concentrations. Manufacturing vinyl flooring requires the use of toxic chemicals, and after installation, vinyl floors have been known to emit VOCs (volatile organic compounds). Low-quality vinyl floors, especially older floors, may even have a negative impact. Most of the time (though not always) vinyl floors do not have an impact on the resale value of a house or building. This is especially true for sheet vinyl or low-quality vinyl. Once the floor is damaged, the affected areas, or the entire floor, must be entirely replaced. Since vinyl flooring consists of a single wear layer over the design layer, it cannot be refinished. The Cons of Vinyl Flooring Cannot be refinished Vinyl is quite affordable and has an uncomplicated installation process that can be DIYed fairly easily. Vinyl can also have soundproofing qualities, which serve to reduce both noise and echo in any room. These layers also insulate and help the floor maintain a consistent temperature no matter the season. ComfortableĬompared to materials like hardwood or stone, vinyl flooring has a “softer” and more “padded” feeling underfoot, thanks to its layered composition. Some brands manufacture 100% waterproof vinyl floors-excellent for bathrooms or mudrooms. If it has a wear layer, vinyl flooring will usually not stain and can survive plenty of wear and tear, which makes it a good option for any highly trafficked areas. This means that most vinyl flooring is water-resistant and very low maintenance, with long-lasting durability. Vinyl flooring is known for being resilient. A top wear layer of varying thickness protects the sublayers from damage. Over this is an image layer, which can mimic a multitude of materials including wood and ceramic. A core layer, potentially with an underlay or backing, makes up the bulk of the floor. Made from materials like plastic, fiberglass and PVC, vinyl flooring typically comes in planks, tiles or sheets that can then be assembled. Vinyl flooring is a type of multi-layered synthetic flooring.

![]() Rumia's real identity is Princess Ermiana, the "cursed" princess who was supposed to have died three years ago. She is close to Glenn, who often treats her well, in contrast to the teasing that Sistine faces from him. Sistine's parent adopted her after she was the sole survivor of an attack by evil mages. Rumia Tingel ( ルミア ティンジェル, Rumia Tinjeru) Voiced by: Yume Miyamoto (Japanese) Monica Rial (English) Rumia is Sistine's best friend and adopted sister. She is called "Sisti" by her sister Rumia, and "Punchie" (for her swift magical strikes) and "White Cat" (for her hair style) by Glenn. As the series progresses, it seems as though Sistine has developed feelings for Glenn, but is too shy to speak of them. Her personality and appearance resembles Sara Silvers, to whom Glenn was very close. When he actually starts doing his job, however, she begrudgingly begins to respect Glenn as a highly effective teacher. She initially hates Glenn, believing him to be as incompetent as he looked due to his lack of enthusiasm. She maintains a strict, no-nonsense demeanor throughout, and often scolds Glenn for his lackadaisical attitude. Sistine Fibel ( システィーナ フィーベル, Shisutīna Fīberu) Voiced by: Akane Fujita (Japanese) Rachael Messer (English) Sistine admires magic greatly and wishes to discover the secret of the Flying Castle, which no one knows. This also places him in conflict with the traditional Professors who favor rote memorization. He cannot use combat magic coherently due to it being far away from his area of expertise, but he has an in-depth understanding of the concept of all types of magic, which makes him a good instructor. While nullifying the enemies' magic he then beats them using superior hand-to-hand combat skills. However, this does not nullify spells that have already been cast. Glenn used to be as passionate about magic as Sistine, but became disillusioned by it due to his former partner Sara Silvers' death and his past as the infamous military assassin known as "The Fool." He developed his own type of magic, called "The Fool's World" which negates the activation of all magic within a certain radius, including his own. While he may seem incompetent, he is actually very skilled in magic, but not in the traditional sense. He becomes the substitute teacher in Sistine's class, after the retirement of her favorite teacher. ![]() Topics that are dealt with are depression, friendship, family relationships, adoption, siblings, following one's dream, quest for power and more.Ĭharacters Glenn Radars ( グレン レーダス, Guren Rēdasu) Voiced by: Sōma Saitō (Japanese) Josh Grelle (English) Glenn is lazy, pervy and constantly bored by everything, with his primary focus being sleeping. This whole season is complete with a promise for eventful things to come. As the BMI's students draw him out of his depression, he finds meaning in the activity of teaching. Sistine is baffled as she had misjudged him to be incompetent. ![]() In episode 2 there is an attack on the school by the previous instructor, and the BMI is forced to show his true powers. What they do not know is that he is hiding his power and that he is a former assassin from the Imperial Court Mage Corps with a remorseful past who is suffering severe depression. He is not a certified teacher nor does he have a high rating in the guild. The "Bastard Magic Instructor" (BMI) appears to be lazy, incompetent, and not that skilled at magic. When her favorite instructor suddenly retired, his replacement Glenn Radars is anything but what Sistine had hoped for. Sistine Fibel and her best friend Rumia Tingel are students at a prestigious magical academy, where Sistine hopes to be trained by the best in order to unravel the secrets of the mysterious Sky Castle as per her grandfather's last wish.

More complexity is added by suggestions that some scaffolds may recruit phosphatases to their scaffold-bound substrates ( 8) or, in contrast, protect scaffold bound kinases from phosphatase-mediated deactivation ( 12, 14).Īlthough functions such as catalysis could be important for specific systems, the ubiquity of scaffolds suggests that the physical effects of tethering members of the cascade to a scaffold may have a functional role. Recent reports also indicate that certain scaffolding proteins, such as Ste5 involved in the MAPK pathway of the yeast mating response, can catalytically activate a MAPK upon binding by inducing autophosphorylation of the threonine residue in the TxY motif in the MAPK, Fus3 ( 13). Indeed, one signature of a scaffold protein is believed to be the appearance of a “bell-shaped” protein titration curve. For example, the relative concentration of scaffolding proteins has been shown to be a key variable that modulates signal output in many instances ( 11, 12). Scaffold proteins are believed to be involved in many regulatory processes such as intracellular trafficking and pathway sequestering, and several factors have been shown to influence their signaling function ( 8). The general principles underlying how scaffold proteins function to influence signaling in protein kinase cascades are still poorly understood. Excluding phosphatases from interacting with scaffold-bound proteins is also considered. Phosphatases are allowed to interact with active kinases that are bound to the scaffold. When assembled on a scaffold, active kinases need only overcome the thermal energy barrier to activate their downstream target. For a chemical reaction to occur in solution, the appropriate species must first come into contact with its substrate and then overcome a thermal energy barrier to model catalysis. ( B) Schematics are shown for the sequence of signaling events in solution and on a scaffold in our model. ![]() ![]() Phosphatases are present that can encounter and deactivate activated kinases. An active A (MAPKKK) in turn activates a B kinase (MAPKK), which then can activate kinase C (MAPK). ( A) In a model kinase cascade such as the MAPK cascade, an initial stimulus, S* (e.g., Ras-GTP), is recruited to and activates kinase A (MAPKKK). This peptide or its mimics can regulate MAPKs, affecting cellular decisions to live or die.Computer simulations model the effects of scaffolding a kinase cascade. The arrestin-3 peptide is the smallest MAPK scaffold known. A homologous arrestin-2 peptide, which differs only in four positions, binds MKK4, but not MKK7 or JNK3, and is ineffective in cells at enhancing activation of JNK3. This peptide is sufficient to enhance JNK3 activity in cells. Here we demonstrate that this peptide also binds MKK4, MKK7, and ASK1, which are upstream JNK3-activating kinases. Arrestin-3 facilitates JNK activation in cells, and a short 25-residue arrestin-3 peptide was identified as the critical JNK3-binding element. MAPK cascades are organized by scaffold proteins, which assemble cognate kinases into productive signaling complexes. Three-kinase mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling cascades are present in virtually all eukaryotic cells. ![]() ![]() That changed when Nash led the Broncos to a WCC tournament title and an upset win over the No. At the time, it had been five years since the Broncos appeared in the NCAA tournament. Nash was awarded a scholarship by Santa Clara for the 1992–93 season. It was just a case of hoping that none of the big names came around." However, Davey also told Nash he was "the worst defensive player" he had ever seen. It didn't take a Nobel Prize winner to figure out this guy's pretty good. After watching Nash in person, Davey said he "was nervous as hell just hoping that no one else would see him. College careerĪlthough Nash's high school coach, Ian Hyde-Lay, sent letters of inquiry and highlight reels to over 30 American universities, Nash was not recruited by any university, until Santa Clara coach Dick Davey requested video footage of the young guard. In the 1991–92 season, he led his team in his final year to the British Columbia AAA provincial championship title, and was named the province's Player of the Year. While playing basketball during his senior season, Nash averaged 21.3 points, 11.2 assists, and 9.1 rebounds per game. There, he starred in basketball, soccer, and rugby union.

Nash originally attended Mount Douglas Secondary School in Saanich, British Columbia, but after his grades began to drop, his parents decided to enroll him at St. He was a neighbour to future NHL stars Russ and Geoff Courtnall, who used to babysit him and played soccer coached by Nash's father. In grade eight, however, he told his mother that one day he would play in the NBA and become a star. Nash often played soccer and ice hockey with his younger brother Martin, and he did not start playing basketball until he was 12 or 13 years old. Before the family settled in Canada, his father played professional soccer in various parts of the world. He, therefore, holds British as well as Canadian citizenship. His family moved to Regina, Saskatchewan, when he was 18 months old, before settling in Victoria, British Columbia. Nash was born in Johannesburg, South Africa, to a Welsh mother, Jean, and English father, John, on 7 February 1974. In 2021, Nash was named to the NBA 75th Anniversary Team. From 2012 to 2019, he served as general manager of the Canadian men's national basketball team, for whom he played from 1991 to 2003, making one Olympic appearance and being twice named FIBA AmeriCup MVP. Nash has been a co-owner of the Vancouver Whitecaps FC of Major League Soccer (MLS) since the team entered the league in 2011. Nash was appointed to the Order of Canada in 2007 and invested to the order in 2016, and was awarded an Honorary Doctor of Laws from the University of Victoria in 2008. In 2006, he was named by Time as one of the 100 most influential people in the world. Nash has been honoured for his contributions to various philanthropic causes. He is also ranked as one of the top players in NBA league history in three-point shooting, free throw shooting, total assists, and assists per game. Nash led the league in assists and free throw percentage at various points in his career. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest point guards of all time. He was named MVP again in the 2005–06 season and was runner-up for a third consecutive MVP to Nowitzki in 2006–07. In the 2004–05 season, Nash led the Suns to the Western Conference finals and was named the league's MVP.

Nash graduated from Santa Clara as the team's all-time leader in assists and was taken as the 15th pick in the 1996 NBA draft by the Phoenix Suns. In his four seasons with the Broncos, the team made three NCAA tournament appearances, and he was twice named the West Coast Conference (WCC) Player of the Year. Nash was a two-time NBA Most Valuable Player while playing for the Phoenix Suns.Īfter a successful high school basketball career in British Columbia, Nash earned a scholarship to Santa Clara University in California.

So Dawson asked Feud viewers to write to say if they thought he should drop the smooching. According to Dawson's goodbye speech in his final episode of Feud in 1985, they'd apparently received a handful of especially pointed complaints from people who didn't like him kissing women of color.
