Carlin to do occasional spots on WFXR

One of Roanoke’s most familiar faces will soon return to the small screen.
Fox affiliate WFXR (Channel 21/27) announced Wednesday that John Carlin will return to its “Fox 21/27 Ten O’Clock News” program. He’ll appear twice a month, every first and third Thursday, with a segment called “John Carlin’s Virginia.”
His first spot happens Sept. 21. “We’ll be shooting the first story next week,” Carlin said.
Carlin, who anchored the Fox show for 13 years, was also the news anchor for WSLS (Channel 10) for 21 years before leaving in November 2008 to take a job at public relations firm Access as senior vice president.
However, Carlin didn’t settle there. In February he left Access to become director of public relations for Ferrum College. Soon after, he formed his own publicity firm, John Carlin Agency Inc. He’ll continue to work for Ferrum and run his own firm while creating the segments for Fox.
“It’s a little more than freelance and a little less than part time,” he said. “It takes a bite out of my schedule, but I enjoy doing it.”
Carlin said his approach will be reminiscent of the “On the Road” features done by legendary television journalist Charles Kuralt in the 1960s and ’70s that highlighted people with interesting hobbies living in little-known places.
His first “John Carlin’s Virginia” segment will be about a man who logs timber the old-fashioned way, using oxen and horses, he said

Ordinary rope materials include cotton, linen and silk. Other choices include hemp, manila, jute and sisal. These fibers are mostly plant derivatives, which tend to be in demand for their potency and elasticity. These ropes also have the quality of drying quickly if exposed to water. Silk ropes were a popular choice in the past as they are lightweight. However, as they are fragile, they are not commonly used today.
In today?s world, ropes are mostly made of synthetic materials. These are commonly known as braided ropes. Popular rope materials are nylon and polyester. These artificial fibers are almost always lighter than their natural counterparts. They are usually produced with the help of modern techniques rather than being handmade.

If it all looks like it’s going well, you can actually start to trim off the excess around the room. Just be sure that all areas of the room are well covered before you start trimming.
Generally speaking, a 2 -3 inch overlap is sufficient when you’re trimming in the room. Once you have all of your general trim cuts made, and the excess vinyl has been removed, you can now start to roughly cut in the corners of the room to make sure that the vinyl will lay nice and flat up against all of the walls.
Now here is where a lot of folks have trouble with vinyl flooring. If there are fixtures in the room, like a sink or toilet for instance, they don’t know how to cut around these obstacles.

Apply stain remover to the cloth, rather than directly on the stain. Then, blot up the stain.
After you have the majority of the stains removed, you can begin shampooing the carpet. It is very important to follow the carpet cleaner instructions in order to avoid damage to your carpet.
Minimize the amount of water that is sprayed onto the carpet. Saturating the carpet can cause deterioration of the carpet and padding, which can create molds later on. Therefore, it is very important to quickly extract any water that is sprayed over the carpet.
After you had made several passes over the carpet with the carpet cleaner, let the carpet dry. It is recommended that you let the carpet dry overnight before walking on it. Whenever possible, place a fan on the carpet and open any windows.
Sometimes your carpet will need to be cleaned by a professional. So be sure to keep in mind, that if your carpet is too bad, call in professional help. While you may save money by doing it yourself, you could also do more damage than a professional would cost if your carpet is in extremely poor shape.
Taking care of your carpet can extend the life of your carpet.
