A lighting system includes a light guide plate, having a plane of incidence into which light enters and a plane of emission from which the light is emitted, a light source, having a luminous portion and a non-luminous portion, that is located adjacent to the light guide plate so that the light guide plate is irradiated by light. An RFID process can receive a tag read event from a device and make the tag read event available for at least one high level application. The unstretchable fibers has longitudinally extending second exposed surfaces each disposed between a circumferentially adjacent pair of the first exposed surfaces. The plate is coupled to a stud or other mounting device positioned within the wall behind the sheetrock. In addition, one or more implementations of the present invention include methods of mounting panels using one or more ball pivot assemblies.
