Any of the brands on that site are professional NIOSH approved manufacturers! SAS is great, Gerson, 3m but they are over priced...a lot of the re4ally good brands are hard to get still since Covid except 3M. Another good brand is Molex! I'll have to look and see which full face respirator i have...I think it's SAS!

BTW, these only work where there is adequate oxygen, they would not work in a fire for example...you'd need or any where where oxygen is depleted, and is the very reason they all have a "check valves" that ensures the carbon dioxide you inhale is EXHALED! Contrary to all "Covid" masks. Every single one of which violated OSHA standards!

Yeah! I think I got that now…Thanks for that info!
They both do the same things, but you can combine them, and the "filter" section can be replaced sooner and does not last as long as the cartridge. Most half mask respirators do NOT have replaceable cartridges...oh and depending on the chemical that you are filtering against, it is possible to use a half mask.

A bit irritated today the cardboard box I put the gas can in isn't keeping it from flinging over in the trunk and when I tried duck taping it down that didn't help. Put two air fresheners in the trunk to keep the gas smell from overwhelming this week. A US and a Florida road atlas came but they are way too big to fit in the glove box had to put them on the backseat and place a jacket and some other objects over them to hopefully shield then from Florida heat/sun damage

Had a funny moment my correct size Sai came in the mail for dojo (totally blunt) and my mom freaked out cause she's only seen sharp ones before (in the movies and shows with Elektra etc 😂)

Ordered a pureblood shirt today

It's because white rice has been denatured and treated while brown is natural....that's what I read many years ago.
May have already been mentioned, but flour will need to be frozen for a few days before packing because of boll weevils or their eggs (the reason you don't eat raw cake batter). After that, store in air tight containers (or include the desiccant packets for food you can buy on Amazon). It can last for years that way - but otherwise flour will eventually go bad in a year to 18 months. You may consider that process for rice or even dried beans as well (they say storage can be prolonged for 25 years). Honey lasts forever and needs no special handling and has antiseptic properties.

I read that the husk...the brown of the rice grain contains arsenic? https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/ar...hould-i-be-concerned-about-arsenic-in-my-rice

I heard that about the freezer as well, but after I had already vacuum sealed a lot of flour, rice and pasta. Then found out that bay leaves are supposed to be good also so I continued on and put the bay leaves in. Don’t know how much truth is in this though. I can but hope
