BETHEL, CT, October 23, 2010 (Press-News.org) Rug Pad Corner knows people want the best protection for their hardwood floors. Superior rug pad is a 100% recycled felt rug pad that has been rated as safest rug pad for use under rugs on hardwood floors. Since Superior rug pad does not contain any chemicals, latex, glues or adhesives, it is completely safe for hardwood floors of all finishes.
"We are always concerned about our rug pads protecting rugs and floors," states Luis, managing member of Rug Pad Corner. "Customers call with bad experiences with their current rug pad sticking to their hardwood floor. They want a rug pad that protects the floor without possible damage." Luis goes on to state that Superior felt rug pad is one of the few rug pads that are available without any chemicals or adhesives.
Made in the USA of 100% recycled felt, Superior rug pad is needle punched together to form a very dense 3/8 of an inch rug pad that protects both rug and floor. "Hardwood floors are an investment and we want to protect that investment," continues Luis. "While our Ultra Premium contains real rubber which is also safe for hardwood floors, Superior is excellent for larger rugs that do not tend to slip." Because Superior does not have rubber, it does not prevent slipping. It works excellent under rugs that are either heavy enough or ones with furniture weighing them down.
Superior felt rug pad was recently rated as best rug pad for hardwood floors by staff and customers of Rug Pad Corner. The rating encompassed quality of rug pad, material of rug pad, comfort of rug pad and odor of rug pad. Superior was rated as excellent quality, excellent material, very comfortable and odor free. Customers use Superior felt rug pad under any type of area rug on any hardwood and wood floor. "Many customers are thrilled when they find out that our Superior rug pad is completely odor free because there are no chemicals or adhesives in it," concludes Luis.
Rug Pad Corner offers safe and secure online shopping of quality rug pads for hardwood and all hard floors as well as carpet. Rug pad orders can be custom cut for no extra charge and are shipped for free.

Berkeley Lab scientists open electrical link to living cells
2010-10-22
The Terminator. The Borg. The Six Million Dollar Man. Science fiction is ripe with biological beings armed with artificial capabilities. In reality, however, the clunky connections between living and non-living worlds often lack a clear channel for communication. Now, scientists with the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) have designed an electrical link to living cells engineered to shuttle electrons across a cell's membrane to an external acceptor along a well-defined path. This direct channel could yield cells that can read and respond to electronic ...
12 new epilepsy drugs usher in 'era of abundance'
2010-10-22
MAYWOOD, Ill. -- A dozen new epilepsy drugs are giving doctors and patients more options, but making treatment decisions more complex, a Loyola epilepsy specialist reports in the journal Neurologic Clinics.
"Clinicians practice in an era of abundance of anti-epileptic drugs," Dr. Jorge J. Asconapé wrote. The new drugs provide "an opportunity to better meet the needs of more patients."
Asconapé's article will appear in the November issue of Neurologic Clinics, now available online.
Since 1993, the Food and Drug Administration has approved 12 new anti-epileptic drugs: ...
New research provides insights into space weather, could benefit satellites, aircraft
2010-10-22
Settling decades of scientific debate, researchers from UCLA and the British Antarctic Survey have discovered the final link between electrons trapped in space and the glow of light from the upper atmosphere known as the diffuse aurora.
The finding will help scientists better understand space weather and how space storms affect the Earth's atmosphere from the top down, with potential benefits for the satellite, power-grid and aviation industries, the researchers said.
Their research appears Oct. 21 in the journal Nature.
Scientists have long known that the diffuse ...
Dad's weight and diet linked to offspring's risk of diabetes
2010-10-22
Medical researchers at the University of New South Wales have for the first time shown a link between a father's weight and diet at the time of conception and an increased risk of diabetes in their offspring.
The finding, reported in the prestigious journal Nature, is the first in any species to show that paternal exposure to a high-fat diet initiates progression to metabolic disease in the next generation.
"We've known for a while that overweight mums are more likely to have chubby babies, and that a woman's weight before and during pregnancy can play a role in future ...
A new way to weigh planets
2010-10-22
An international CSIRO-led team of astronomers has developed a new way to weigh the planets in our Solar System – using radio signals from the small spinning stars called pulsars."This is first time anyone has weighed entire planetary systems – planets with their moons and rings," said team leader Dr David Champion from Germany's Max-Planck-Institut für Radioastronomie.
"And we've provided an independent check on previous results, which is great for planetary science."
Measurements of planet masses made this new way could feed into data needed for future space missions.

Towards better explosives detectors
2010-10-22
WASHINGTON, D.C., (Oct. 21, 2010) -- Over the past decade, Christine Mahoney and a team of scientists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in Maryland have been working to stop the threat of terrorist-based attacks in the form of explosives or explosive-based devices, by providing a sound measurement and standard infrastructure.
"Our program encompasses many different aspects of explosives research, from development of measurement standards for trace explosives detection at airports, to the development and application of new metrology for the direct ...
Simple blood test helps predict chronic kidney disease
2010-10-22
Measuring three biomarkers in a single blood sample may improve physicians' ability to identify patients at high risk of developing chronic kidney disease (CKD), according to a study appearing in an upcoming issue of the Journal of the American Society of Nephrology.
"Our results identify biomarkers that can improve CKD risk prediction," comments Caroline S. Fox, MD, MPH of the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute's Framingham Heart Study, Framingham, Mass.
The study included more than 2,300 participants in the Framingham Offspring Study, a long-term follow-up ...
LRO's LAMP ultraviolet spectrograph observes LCROSS blast, detects surprising gases in impact plume
2010-10-22
NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) and its sophisticated suite of instruments have determined that hydrogen, mercury and other volatile substances are present in permanently shaded soils on the Moon, according to a paper published today in Science.
The Lunar Crater Remote Observation and Sensing Satellite (LCROSS), which launched with LRO, was intentionally crashed onto the Moon's surface Oct. 9, 2009, while LRO instruments watched. About 90 seconds after LCROSS hit the Moon, LRO flew past the debris plume raised by the impact, while the Lyman Alpha Mapping Project ...
Iowa State, Ames Lab chemists discover proton mechanism used by flu virus to infect cells
2010-10-22
AMES, Iowa – The flu virus uses a shuttle mechanism to relay protons through a channel in a process necessary for the virus to infect a host cell, according to a research project led by Mei Hong of Iowa State University and the Ames Laboratory.
The findings are published in the Oct. 22 issue of the journal Science.
Hong, an Iowa State professor of chemistry and an associate of the U.S. Department of Energy's Ames Laboratory, said her research team used solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy to determine the structure and workings of the proton channel ...
Putting a bull's-eye on the flu: Detailing influenza's structure for drug targeting
2010-10-22
Beating the flu is already tough, but it has become even harder in recent years – the influenza A virus has mutated so that two antiviral drugs don't slow it down anymore.
Reporting their findings in the journal Science, researchers from Florida State and Brigham Young move closer to understanding why not, and how future treatments can defeat the nasty bug no matter how it changes.
The two drugs, amantadine and rimantadine, are no longer recommended by the CDC for use against flu.
They used to work by blocking a hole in the influenza A virus called the "M2 channel," ...
