***Flexible FEP Corrugated Tubing Turns Sharp Corners Without Reducing Flow*** FT. WORTH , TX: Tex-Flex FEP corrugated tubing is capable of turning sharp corners with very small bend diameters without reducing the inside diameter of the tube. In fact, the bend diameter is almost 4x smaller than a typical smoothbore tube of the same size. Increased bend diameters allows the tubing to work well in confined spaces, wrapping around machine legs and other obstacles that would normally restrict or kink a smoothbore tube. The corrugated tubing is lightweight, seamless and extremely clear, allowing operators to monitor any material passing through the tube. The non-stick surface allows for easy cleaning and bacteria free transport of media. ---Parker/Texloc Read More

  • INDUSTRY TRENDS
    ***Make Your Life Easier -- Learn to Laugh More!*** No one can deny that we live in stressful times -- on a global scale and in most of our personal lives. The turmoil of everyday life can take a toll on us both physically and emotionally. No wonder we snap at the cashier in the grocery store or feel a compelling urge to ram our cars into the jerk that cut us off on the highway. The tension we let fester inside amplifies the minor problems we face everyday. So what's the solution? Learn to laugh more. Seriously. Laughter is a proven antidote to stress hormones and it can help make the most difficult situations feel a little more tolerable.

    Pamela Aye Simon, a Masters Level Registered Dietitian, Lifestyle Coach and author of the newly released "Book of Blah: Random Thoughts for Boring Days" (Warren Publishing, Inc) believes that most us need a refresher course to regain our sense of humor. "I see so many people who are stressed out and find themselves going berserk over minor issues," says Simon. "We need to learn to take a deep breath, assess the situation and then laugh at the inane nature of it all. Life feels softer if you can see the humorous story behind your frustrations. Laughing may not make the problem itself disappear but it sure helps makes things seem better."

    Simon isn't alone in valuing the benefits of humor. Researchers at Loma Linda University's Schools of Medicine and Public Health tout the health benefits of laughter. They've discovered that laughter increases the body's ability to use oxygen. It also lowers blood pressure, reduces stress hormones and even boosts the immune system, making it a key weapon in your arsenal to combat the ravages of stress.
