Web wall paper

It's looking like one of the last vestiges to provide free online national news may be coming to a close. Joining its other paywall comrades, the Washington Post is said to start charging for its online content in 2013, according to the Wall Street Journal.Inside sources told the Journal that the details are still being ironed out, but most likely the D.C. paper will start charging a subscription fee by next summer.It's no secret that the newspaper industry is in dire straights. Several papers, like the Rocky Mountain News, have gone belly up and many print editions, like U.S. News and World Report and Newsweek, have gone digital only. The Washington Post is no exception. According to the Wall Street Journal, the paper had a 14 percent decline in revenue and an operating loss of $56.3 million the first nine months of this year.Several other national newspapers have already introduced paywalls. The New York Times started charging $35 every four weeks for full digital access in 2011, and the Wall Street Journal's Web site always had a paywall. The Washington Post has long held out on charging for its online content. The chairman of the paper, Don Graham, has been vocal about his desire to keep the news free. However, according to the Wall Street Journal, Graham hinted at an investor conference earlier this week about the possibility of adding a paywall to the site."We are obviously looking at paywalls of every type," Graham said, according to the Journal. "But the reason we haven't adopted them yet is that we haven't found one that actually adds profits immediately. But we're going to continue to study every model of paywall and think about that, as well as thinking about keeping it free."

Bubbles in Wallpaper Bubbles in WallpaperThere are several causes of bubbles/blisters in wallpaper:1. A weak bond between the wallpaper and wall causes the wallpaper to lift. This can be the result of not applying enough paste, or from an absorbent wall surface that absorbs much of the paste, resulting in the paper not sticking to the wall. 2. Trapped paste that wasn’t brushed out when hanging the paper3. Trapped air pockets.4. Not allowing the paper to sit for the required booking time.How To Stop Wallpaper Bubbling1. Prepare your wall surfaces properly. Applying a coat of size or primer to the walls will prevent the wall from absorbing the paste.2. Take time to apply a sufficient amount of paste as evenly as you can across the entire surface.How To Prepare Your Walls For WallpaperShould I Use Primer Or Size?3. Make sure to follow the manufacturer’s recommended time for booking/soaking the wallpaper. The paper expands during the booking process, and if you hang the paper on the wall before the booking time has expired, the paper can continue to expand on the wall. You may not notice initially, but when it has dried you may find some bubbles. 4. Drying Time – Drafts, humidity and temperatures that are too high or too low can also be the cause of bubbles. Ideally, opening the window for 5-10 mins allowing any humid air to leave the room whenever necessary, is helpful to the drying process. When in the process of hanging paper, bubbles or

Blisters can easily be removed by brushing them to the side of the wallpaper using a soft cloth or wallpaper brush. This process will allow any trapped air or excessive paste to escape at the edges of the paper. Be careful not to apply too much force when doing so, to prevent any damage to the surface of your wallpaper. Brush from the center of the wallpaper out to the edges.Wallpaper Sticking To The Wall Below The Working LineWe like to refer to the level at which your hands are smoothing as the ‘Working Line’. Once wallpaper starts to adhere to the wall below this level you are going to have to deal with bubbles and creases. This is because the paper sticking to the wall below the working line, will not stick to the wall in the correct place. It will always stick to the wall slightly higher than it should. So as you continue to smooth down towards this lower level, bubbles and creases result as a wave-like ripple will form in the paper. Brush them out immediately. To reduce the number of bubbles and creases caused by this process, we would suggest you use WallpaperBuddy™ which prevents wallpaper sticking to the wall below the working line.WallpaperBuddy™ Makes Wallpapering EasyWallpaperBuddy™ holds the paper away from the wall for you, leaving you two hands free, one hand to glide over the surface of the paper feeling for even the smallest of bubbles, with the other hand following close behind
