One of the differences to be aware of when looking to get your rims repaired is the type of rim that you have. Diamond cut alloy rims are rims that during the final stage of the manufacturing process have the top surface of the rim shaved off to allow the shiny alloy metal to show through and this is covered in a protective lacquer.
Often any remaining surfaces are also painted and then covered in a lacquer.
The issue with these types of wheels is that once the lacquer has been damaged the alloy metal underneath is prone to corrosion.
Modern alloy rims tend to have a machined face finished, which means that during the manufacturing process the face of the rim would have been cut and then clear coated by a CNC machine. We can offer a similar process to repair your rims at our central located workshop near Balcatta.
Damaged alloy wheels, if left un-repaired can cause the spread of oxidation which leads to expensive replacements in the future. Kerbed and scuffed wheels can be repaired by centrally our team near Balcatta, without even removing the wheel from the tyre and we can repair paint damage on-site restoring the wheel back to its original factory finish. Our team is extremely efficient and we are always happy to answer any questions you may have.

A man dressed as Spider-Man was arrested on charges he slugged a police officer who told him to stop harassing tourists in Times Square.
Junior Bishop, 25, of Brooklyn, was charged with assaulting an officer, resisting arrest and criminal mischief.
The New York Police Department said the officer assaulted Saturday - an 18-month veteran and one of about 50 officers patrolling the bustling tourist area - stepped in after Bishop demanded at least $5 from a woman he posed for a picture with, instead of the $1 tip she offered.
Police said a costumed Bishop "put out his hand and told the woman 5s, 10s or 20s only." Police said the officer told him he could only accept tips - not require payment.
Bishop yelled and cursed at the officer, police said, and told him: "Mind your own (expletive) business."
Police said the officer asked for identification and, when Bishop failed to produce any, moved to arrest him.
Bishop broke free and punched the officer in the face, police said, causing a cut and eye swelling.
The officer, whose name was not released, was treated and released at New York University's Langone Medical Center.
Other officers arrived and hauled Spider-Man away.
Bishop's mother answered the phone at their Brooklyn home late Saturday and said he was not home. She said she was not aware of his work in Times Square or his arrest. Information on Bishop's lawyer was not available.
The arrest of Spider-Man, as police referred to Bishop throughout a matter-of-fact news release, came weeks after the New York City Council said it was considering legislation to regulate the costumed characters in Times Square.
It was the latest in a series of incidents involving men behind the masks.
In the last two years, a man dressed as Cookie Monster was charged with shoving a 2-year-old, a person attired in Super Mario's overalls was accused of groping a woman and an Elmo figure pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct after unleashing an anti-Semitic tirade.
Last month a different Spider-Man was convicted of harassment for a February 2013 episode in which he cursed and complained that a woman did not tip him after posing for a photograph with her children. Phillip Williams later punched the woman in the face and knocked her to the ground - out of self-defense, he said - after she hurled snow at him.
The bill under City Council consideration would require licenses and background checks for costumed performers but copyright issues have held up final approval, since most of the costume wearers are not authorized by the characters' owners.
Police Commissioner William Bratton last week endorsed the measure to combat what he called Times Square's "Elmo issues."

RECTA, founded in 1897 originally manufactured chronographs. This precision based activity was the foundation of the skills required to design and manufacture the first compass in a pocket watch housing in 1914. Recta developed its famous "liquid filled matchbox" model in 1941 - it is still today used by armed forces around the world, who have both proven and established its unique reputation. Recta is also the developer of the unique and patented "Global System", which enables one compass to be used world-wide without sacrificing performance.
Recta and Suunto joined forces in 1996 to further strengthen their common expertise in compasses as Suunto acquired Recta. All Recta compasses are manufactured at the Suunto Oy factory in Finland.

Music is a natural part of life for toddlers. They might sing to their stuffed animals, tap their feet to the rhythm of nursery rhymes, and enjoy the sound of their parents singing to them — even if mom and dad can't quite carry a tune.
But this early introduction to music does more than entertain. It can kickstart learning, serve as an important cue in a child's routine, and offer lifelong benefits.
Music contributes to what experts call "a rich sensory environment." This simply means exposing kids to a wide variety of tastes, smells, textures, colors, and sounds — experiences that can forge more pathways between the cells in their brains.
These neural connections will help kids in almost every area of school, including reading and math. Just listening to music can make these connections, but the biggest impact on comes if kids actively participate in musical activities.
Of course there's another reason to introduce music into your toddler's world: It's enjoyable for both of you. That will come as no surprise to parents who sing songs with their child, sway and twirl together to favorite CDs, or listen to lullabies as they rock their child to sleep.
I Got Music, I Got Rhythm
Between the ages of 1 and 3, kids respond best to music when they actively experience it. Passive listening (like in the car) is fine, but look for opportunities to get your child rocking, marching, rolling, tapping, clapping, and moving to the beat.
Share songs that go along with simple hand motions or dance moves, like The "Itsy Bitsy Spider," "The Wheels on the Bus," "Two Little Blackbirds," or the "Hokey Pokey." For younger kids, a parent's lap is a great place to put music and movement together. Have your child face you and be sure to smile as you bounce your knees to chants like "Trot, Trot to Boston" or "To Market, To Market."
If you don't know a lot of kids' songs and rhymes, you can borrow books, CDs, and DVDs from the local library. But also feel free to make it up as you go along. Create your own silly songs and hand motions. Try to use your child's name in the song or rhyme. Or just turn on some music and dance together. Show your toddler how to move with the music by twirling quickly to a fast song and swooping slowly to a song with a longer, slower beat. Introduce props like scarves, balloons, or stuffed animals to dance with.
At this age, kids can sporadically keep time — you'll notice this if you give a toddler a pot and a wooden spoon and sing a song or play some music that has a steady tempo. You can encourage this by grabbing your own spoon, inviting your toddler to bang out a rhythm, and then imitating what he or she does. Extend the game by tapping a slightly more complicated rhythm and inviting your child to follow or by asking your child to tap on different surfaces — the floor, your back, a pillow — and seeing what sound these different taps make.
Music Can Teach
Songs are a lot more fun than flashcards and can teach toddlers important facts and skills. For instance, singing the ABC song can help a child learn the alphabet, "This Old Man" teaches counting, and "There Was an Old Woman Who Swallowed a Fly" helps with rhyming and memory.
And you can encourage creativity by singing new words to familiar tunes like "Drive, Drive, Drive Your Car" for "Row, Row, Row Your Boat" or by inserting your child's name in "Did You Ever See a Lassie?"
You're likely to find your child favoring a few songs and rhymes and wanting to hear them again and again. While this may become dull for you, your child is on to something. Repetition helps kids learn.
It's important to note that toddlers won't learn to read or understand music at this point. They won't pick up individual notes, for instance, but will experiment with different pitches. You may notice your toddler singing made-up songs that slide from high to low and back again. Usually these songs will not have a regular rhythm.
Kids this age also are learning about keeping a steady beat and making coordinated movements — skills that are critical to math and reading later on. Encourage this development by tapping the beat with your foot while you sing and by chanting simple nursery rhymes.
Adding Instruments
If you'd like to introduce an instrument, keep it simple. Very young toddlers will enjoy instruments they can shake — bells, rattles, shakers, tambourines, or rain sticks. As your child gets older and a little more coordinated, try rhythm instruments that can be banged, like drums, cymbals, or xylophones.
Some 2- to 3-year-olds can use simple wind instruments, like a recorder, a pipe whistle, or a kazoo. Many companies now make musical instruments that are appropriately sized and shaped for little hands and that are safe for toddlers — check the label when you buy them.
Kids usually don't start formal instruction to learn an instrument until they're older, but you might have heard of the Suzuki method. It's geared to kids as young as 2 or 3 for the violin, but parents must be present for the lessons and involved in both the instruction and the learning process.
If your child does begin formal instruction, make sure it is with a certified instructor at a reputable school and that the instrument used is adapted for a young child. And, of course, you'll want to have reasonable expectations of how much a child can master at this young age.
Music Can Soothe
Once your toddler is familiar with music, it can be a source of comfort and soothing. Don't be surprised if you hear your child singing in bed or while playing, or serenading dolls or stuffed animals, especially if you have made a habit of singing to him or her yourself.
When music is part of the everyday routine, these songs can help your child know what to expect and feel more secure. For instance, if you always sing a lullaby at bedtime or naptime, your child will come to see this as a cue for "go to sleep."
Here are some other ways music can help your child make transitions through the day:
- picking up toys ("toys away, toys away, it's time to put the toys away")
- brushing teeth ("brushing, brushing, brushing teeth," sung to the tune of "London Bridge Is Falling Down")
- taking a bath ("Now it's bath time, now it's bath time, yes, it is" sung to the tune of "Are You Sleeping")
In addition, you can use music to alter your child's mood — and your own. While soft, gentle music seems just right for bedtime, louder, bouncier music could be just the boost you both need when it's time to clean up the toys.
Music All Around
Kids' music CDs are great, but don't forget to share your own favorite music with your kids. A toddler who loves Beethoven or Bruce Springsteen? Why not? Folk music and music from other cultures also can be good choices for kids. When you try new music, ask if your child likes it and discuss your opinion as well.
Though toddlers aren't likely to be ready for a night at the opera, you might be able to find live performances suitable for kids. Museums, libraries, and bookstores often host child-friendly events. Outdoor concerts where kids can run around without disturbing anyone are also a good bet.
You might also enroll your child in a music class. If you do, be sure the class is developmentally appropriate — for kids this age, that means it shouldn't last more than 45 minutes and it should be something you and your child do together. Classes are a fun way to enjoy music together; they're also good sources for music and activities to enjoy at home. Check the music department at your local university if you need help finding a music class.
Even if you do take a class with your child, remember that you are your child's first and most important teacher when it comes to music — and so much more. To help your child really benefit from a music class, be sure to bring the music and games you learn there into your home.

The Arab world was aflame in March 2011. Longtime rulers in Tunisia and Egypt had been toppled. NATO was poised to attack Libyan government forces. The Syrian uprising was just beginning. And on the small island nation of Bahrain, the government was cracking down on pro-democracy protesters.
Across Bahrain, protest leaders were rounded up and some were quickly tried, convicted and sentenced to prison. The writing was on the wall for the leaders of the movement, including Ali Abdulemam.
He was perhaps the country's most prominent online activist. More than a decade earlier, he had founded the first online forum critical of the Bahraini government, Bahrain Online.
Abdulemam, who went into hiding at that time, made his first public appearance in more than two years when he showed up at the Oslo Freedom Forum in Norway on Wednesday. He sat down with me and his friend, fellow activist Nasser Weddady, and recalled this nightmarish period.
Back in 2011, Weddady was watching the crackdown from afar in Boston and was worried about his friend.
"I began to see the telltale signs," Weddady says. "My first concern was to get in touch with Ali, first of all to make sure he wasn't detained and then to warn him. I called frantically in the middle of the night and basically told him, 'Ali, get the hell out of Dodge. They are coming for everybody.' But since then I've learned that this warning didn't sink in with him."
Across the table, Abdulemam smiles somewhat uncomfortably. "Well, it was 3 a.m.," he says with a laugh. "Nasser woke me up; he called many times until I woke up. He told me they were raiding houses and you needed to get into hiding. I tried to explain to him, in the street it's martial law, no one can go out. It was dark outside, no light at all. He just couldn't listen; he just kept saying, 'You have to get out now.' So I said, 'I'll see what I can do.' Then I continued sleeping."
Going Underground
By next morning, though, Abdulemam realized the gravity of the situation. "When I woke up, I read the news that they raided the houses of most of the activists. So it wasn't hard to expect them to come for me in the next few hours or days."
"That night, I slept in another house," Abdulemam continues. "The next morning I got the news that they raided my house. They turned it upside down. And then I made some contact to find a safer place."
When Abdulemam arrived at that safe house, he had no idea that he would remain in complete hiding for more than two years.
For months, friends and colleagues searched for Ali to no avail. The government sentenced him to 15 years in jail in absentia. No one, including his family, knew what had happened to him. Abdulemam was off the grid.
Maintaining complete silence was difficult. The hardest part, he says, was being unable to help friends and colleagues as the government crackdown continued.
"It wasn't easy," Abdulemam says. "It's like a heavy stone on my chest; I cannot breathe."
A Major Crackdown
The crackdown continued after Abdulemam went into hiding. Several leaders of the opposition movement were arrested, tortured and given life sentences in jail. At least two of his friends were tortured to death by police, he says. Doctors who assisted injured protesters were fired and even arrested, according to human rights groups.
An independent commission documented 46 deaths and more than 500 cases of torture at the hands of the government. Government critics say no meaningful reforms have been undertaken despite the report.
Abdulemam eventually managed to reach out to Weddady and make what he described as "very, very restricted contact" with him.
"I got a message, without saying his name," Weddady explains. "I immediately understood who this was, but my biggest fear was that I was talking to somebody under arrest, and that this was a way to further dig him deeper into a hole. So through our exchange, there were coded references to things that only the two of us would know. I was finally certain this was Ali Abdulemam."
For months, Weddady kept Abdulemam's secret to himself, giving no hint of what he knew. "Mutual friends would come to me and ask for news," he says. "'What's up with Ali?' they'd say. And the hardest thing was to look at them and say, 'I dunno.' "
Weddady discreetly began making contacts to see if anyone could help get him out of Bahrain. U.S. government officials were sympathetic, he says, but they told him that Bahrain was a sovereign country and Ali was a citizen of Bahrain, so there was little they could do.
A Rescue Plan
Weddady eventually made contact with Thor Halvorssen of the Human Rights Foundation. Halvorssen decided he would organize a rescue effort — and a bold one at that.
Taking a cue from the movie Argo, he put together a camera crew that would film a fake documentary in Bahrain. Just before leaving the country, Abdulemam would swap places with a lookalike member of the crew and, if all went well, he would escape.
The plan was within weeks of implementation when Weddady lost contact with Abdulemam.
"At one point, communication stopped," Weddady says. "I went bananas."
Little did he know at the time that yet another group of activists had agreed to smuggle Abdulemam out of the country. Neither of them would go into details about how the actual escape transpired — they're both concerned it could compromise other activists from making similar escapes — but other news outlets including The Atlantichave reported that it involved hiding in a secret compartment inside a car and driving across the causeway that links Bahrain to Saudi Arabia.
After several harrowing days, Abdulemam made it to London, where the British government granted him political asylum. One of the first calls he made was to his friend Weddady.
"After a few days I was able to communicate with him," Abdulemam says. "I had a feeling that they were working on something, but I didn't know what it was. But he was with me from the beginning, so he should be the first one to know that I made it out."
Meanwhile, Abdulemam made another phone call: to his wife and three children, who he hadn't seen in two years. He's now working to bring them to Britain.
"Hopefully we'll be reunited very soon," he says.

I look into my glass,
And view my wasting skin,
And say, "Would God it came to pass
My heart had shrunk so thin!"
For then I, undistrest
By hearts grown cold to me,
Could lonely wait my endless rest
With equanimity.
But Time, to make me grieve,
Part steals, lets part abide;
And shakes this fragile frame at eve
With throbbings of noontide.
I Look Into My Glass: Thomas Hardy, from Wessex Poems (1898)

Torque Tank
Torque Tank M4 - Resistance Dog Sled Prowler
The TANK™ M4 continues the evolution of this unique push sled on wheels. The core technology that makes all TANK™ models unique is that unlike resistance sleds, they can be run indoors or outdoors on any surface without gouging. Also on all TANK™ models the resistance increases the faster you push it, so each user can choose their resistance on the fly, without stopping to load or unload plates.
New Features on the M4:
- The wheel resistance or "braking" is on all 4 wheels, so if the push end rises up at high speed, the other end still applies the resistance, This eliminates the need on earlier models to load plates to prevent rising up.
- Three resistance levels can be set at each end independent of each other enabling one resistance on the push and a different resistance on the pull
- All wheel resistance also makes TANK™ M4 bi-directional, so there is no need to turn the unit around to reverse direction.
- An optional weight horn is available for athletes who want to perform more intense towing exercises
Other Features:
- Safety: Resistance that feels dangerous can be backed down instantly during the run to a level that feels safer depending on the user's age, conditioning level, and fitness goals.
- The Experience: Feeling the resistance increase with speed causes a surprise "wow" reaction and a novel exercise experience that users love
- H.I.I.T: All TANK™ models enable High Intensity Interval Training (H.I.I.T) in which bursts of acceleration and speed for 14 minutes of a TANK™ workout is the equivalent of an hour on a treadmill.
- Warranty: 10 year warranty on frame and welds and 1 year on parts and finish on workmanship and materials
- Weight: 89.8kg
- Dimension: (L)133cm x (W)81cm x (H)94 cm

Electrical Heating Services
Call us at (780) 885-8674
Modern electrical heating has become increasingly popular for homes and businesses in the area for a number of reasons. For starters, electrical heating is far more flexible than oil and gas alternatives. Since electric heat doesn't rely on flues or pipe-work, you won't have to worry about restrictions or regulatory issues that dictate where the heaters can be placed, allowing for unparalleled flexibility and versatility.
Plus, with no fuel burnt internally and no moving pieces required to generate the heat, mechanical breakdowns and safety issues like carbon monoxide leaks are something you won't have to worry about when you opt for electric heat. With increased efficiency and ease that electrical heating offers, the only thing you need to do when choosing electrical heating is making sure that it's installed by Jem Electric Services.
Jem Electric Services has been proud to be the first choice of homes and businesses around the area whenever they need anything related to electrical heating. Whether it's installations, maintenance or something else, our licensed and insured electricians are among the most experienced in the area and have a wealth of knowledge they can apply and share to keep you warm and cozy in any weather.
For a free estimate on the electrical heating service your home or business requires, just give Jem Electric Services a call today.
Electrical Heating Is the Sustainable Choice
As we mentioned above, there are many different reasons why electrical heating makes sense for homes and businesses in the area. It's much easier to install, easier to maintain and safer than any of the other popular alternatives. But it's also the sustainable choice.
Fossil fuel prices are only going to go up as they get scarcer and scarcer. Electric heating does not depend on these ever-depleting fuels, making electrical heating a smart investment for the future. Plus, many electric heaters are made out of recycled materials. So, for the environmentally conscious, electrical heating is the right way to go.
Electrical Heating Works for Your Budget
Electric heating is quick and easy to install, especially when you use one of our expert electricians to get the job done for an extremely affordable rate. But the savings don't end after the heaters have been installed. Because they require very little maintenance, even as time goes on, you won't have to worry about paying for expensive repairs like you would with a gas furnace for example.
What could be better than low installation costs and virtually no maintenance costs in the future? Modern electric heating systems can be up to 47 percent cheaper than the alternatives, which makes it an affordable source of heat for commercial and residential clients alike.
Yearly check-ups are recommended just to assure that everything is working fine, which is no problem thanks to Jem Electric Services's great rates with all things electrical heating.
Contact us today!
For more information about why electrical heating is right for you, or to schedule an inspection, give us a call today. Our experienced staff is always eager to help more people in the area, so call today!

Money doesn't just talk. It's also good to think with. Assistant Professor of History Desmond Fitz-Gibbon describes some of the intriguing stories told by coins and other money-related objects in the MHCAM collection: a Spanish real with layers of history, a gold solidus with a disturbing omission, and an assignat, France's first paper currency. Taught bienially in the spring semester, Professor Fitz-Gibbon's History of Money course explores the meaning of money from the distant past to the present day.

Apache HTTP Server Version 2.4
This document describes the use of filters in Apache.
Related Modules | Related Directives |
The Filter Chain is available in Apache 2.0 and higher, and enables applications to process incoming and outgoing data in a highly flexible and configurable manner, regardless of where the data comes from. We can pre-process incoming data, and post-process outgoing data, at will. This is basically independent of the traditional request processing phases.
Some examples of filtering in the standard Apache distribution are:
, implements server-side includes.mod_ssl
, implements SSL encryption (https).mod_deflate
, implements compression/decompression on the fly.mod_charset_lite
, transcodes between different character sets.mod_ext_filter
, runs an external program as a filter.Apache also uses a number of filters internally to perform functions like chunking and byte-range handling.
A wider range of applications are implemented by third-party filter modules. A few of these are:
, included in Apache 2.1 and later,
enables the filter chain to be configured dynamically at run time.
So for example you can set up a proxy to rewrite
HTML with an HTML filter and JPEG images with a completely
separate filter, despite the proxy having no prior information
about what the origin server will send. This works by using a
filter harness, that dispatches to different providers according
to the actual contents at runtime. Any filter may be either
inserted directly in the chain and run unconditionally, or
used as a provider and inserted dynamically. For example,
Filters can be used to process content originating from the client in
addition to processing content originating on the server using the
accepts POST requests from clients, and reflects
the content request body received within the POST request back in the response,
passing through the output filter stack on the way back to the client.
This technique can be used as an alternative to a web service running within
an application server stack, where an output filter provides the transformation
required on the request body. For example, the mod_deflate
module might be used to provide a general compression service, or an image
transformation filter might be turned into an image transformation service.
There are two ways to use filtering: Simple and Dynamic. In general, you should use one or the other; mixing them can have unexpected consequences (although simple Input filtering can be mixed freely with either simple or dynamic Output filtering).
The Simple Way is the only way to configure input filters, and is
sufficient for output filters where you need a static filter chain.
Relevant directives are
, and
The Dynamic Way enables both static and flexible, dynamic configuration
of output filters, as discussed in the mod_filter
Relevant directives are
, and
One further directive AddOutputFilterByType
is still supported,
but deprecated. Use dynamic configuration instead.

Bronze Statuary & Fountain Securing Guide
Your Bronze Statuary and Fountains may be anchored to the ground to prevent undesired movement or theft. Below are some common examples for mounting a bronze sculpture or fountain to its permanent location.
Although many sculpture designs are mounted on a base to provide stability, the base is not designed to prevent accidental tipping. We recommend bolting your piece to a secure base (e.g., a concrete patch, pad or prefabricated metal or wooden base) that can secure the sculpture base. Use a high-torque drill to create holes large enough to fit 3/8" or larger bolts, or use bolting mounting brackets on the base, which can then be secured. A color-matched patina can be used to match the bolts to the base color.
Set the sculpture base directly into a curing cement base and allow cement to dry, permanently securing the piece. Note that it will be difficult to move your sculpture from a cement base.
If other securing options prove untenable, brackets can be welded directly to the base. Use this method only if other options will not produce the desired result. Note that welding results in re-heating the metal sculpture, and it can peel off the finish for up to 12 inches surrounding the weld area, requiring the patina to be color matched and reapplied to the welded area.
Once the bronze sculpture is secured, decorative rocks, stones or landscaping can be added to hide any mounting brackets and water pump equipment.
Care & Cleaning of Bronze Statuary & Fountains
Through a variety of finishing processes, bronze statuary is
typically produced with French Brown and Verdigris patinas.
Natural Weathering
Bronze sculptures with a French Brown finish will naturally oxidize to a Verdi Green patina over several years if left outdoors. Bronze Sculptures with a Verdi Green finish will oxidize to a deep green patina. Oxidizing occurs with Bronze Statuary due to its high copper content. Since bronze is an alloy, it contains mostly copper, along with small amounts of tin and zinc. To keep your sculpture clean and if you prefer to maintain the original finish, it is necessary to properly and regularly wax and polish your piece.
Care for Statuary Finishes
Always use a brown wax to maintain your French Brown finish and a clear wax to preserve your Verdi Green finish. We recommend Kiwi Wax as a highly reliable brand. Available from American Custom Wax: 252-955-0156
Applying Wax
Polishing your bronze with a high-quality wax will protect it from nature's elements. Polishing removes oxidation build-up and dirt spots from your bronze and seals the sculpture from reacting to moisture.
Use a paint brush to apply wax to your bronze sculpture. Start with a light coat over the entire piece, adding additional wax to areas with high detail. Allow the wax to sit for a few minutes, then buff and polish with a rag or electric buffer. If any oxidation or dirt spots remain, repeat the process once more.
Wax should be applied several times yearly for best results, and more often in climates with extreme temperatures or high humidity levels.
Fountains should be winterized in very cold climates. Ensure that both the water pipes and fountain have no residual water and are completely dry and wrapped before the onset of freezing temperatures.
Fire Applied Patina Finish Options:
Our Bronze Fountains, Statues, Lighting and Mailboxes can be done as shown in the picture or ordered with the following fire applied patina colors. You can use a number of different patina finishes on one bronze item or have the whole thing just one patina finish.
Maple (light brown) - New not shown below
Chestnut (dark brown) - New not shown below
Sandgreen (antiqued beige/green) - New not shown below
Verdigris (natural bright greenish-blue) - New not shown below
French Brown (two-tone light and dark brown) - Shown below
Anthracite (very dark almost black) - New not shown below
Italian Green (dark green) - Shown below
Reminders & Disclaimers
Bronze Fountains and Sculpture Reminders:
Just about any fountain can be changed into just a sculpture and any sculpture can be changed into a fountain. Also each fountain and sculpture can be customized in size and finish. We can also do custom projects that you might have in mind. No mater how large or small you require. For custom projects please call us at 866-372-7902
Care of Sculpture:
Bronze Sculpture and Bronze Fountains require proper care and cleaning to maintain the original fire-applied finish. Bronze statuary naturally ages over time, more aggressively in coastal climates, beginning the growth of a beautiful blueish-green oxidation, commonly referred to as a patina. This look is often desired, however, can be prevented with gentle care, similar to maintaining the finish on an automobile. Unique Style Solutions, Inc. - Unique Mosaic Tables shall not be deemed responsible for the natural aging of bronze statuary, or damages to the fire-applied finish due to abrasive materials, chemicals and general carelessness.
While Unique Style Solutions, Inc. - Unique Mosaic Tables represents numerous bronze sculpture and marble sculpture artists, including original Steven Bennett Bronze Sculptures, we are hereby not responsible for any sculpture representing similarity in shape or design. Discrepancies on such sculpture conflicts should be directed to the originating foundry where the sculpture in question was developed. Unique Style Solutions, Inc. - Unique Mosaic Tables shall not be deemed responsible for such conflicts as we are representing individual works of art as a broker.
Each sculpture is a work of art, the pictures shown is the picture that the foundry artist gives us. Each monitor can very in how it shows the color or shading of pictures. Each piece is handmade from a mold and hand painted with the paint and finish colors hand mixed at the time of fire applying the finish. So each piece can very in shading and color. Unique Style Solutions, Inc. - Unique Mosaic Tables ties to have the foundry to get as close to the pictures we show, but we do not guaranty exact finish on custom pieces.
Stocking Pieces:
If we have an item in stock we will take a picture of it before we send it to you so you can accept the item of not. But this doesn't apply on custom orders.
Incoming back-order merchandise via ocean freight:
We diligently scheduled for timely fulfillment, however, have the possibility to delay and/or change without prior notice. Unique Style Solutions, Inc. - Unique Mosaic Tables shall not be deemed responsible for unforeseen delays of back-order fulfillment including but not limited to ocean freight, air freight, United States Customs Agencies, and on-land transportation of merchandise to our headquarters.

12 More Things You Didn't Know About Some Of Your Favorite Christmas Movies
We had so much fun with our first list of 12 things you didn't know about some of your favorite Christmas movies, and received such a great reaction to it, we've decided to follow in Hollywood's footsteps and take the next logical step, a sequel!
So here are 12 more things you may not know about some of your favorite Christmas movies.
*All trivia via IMDB
'The Santa Clause'
1. In 'The Santa Clause,' Scott Calvin makes a joke about his ex-wife's mother-in-law's phone number being "1-800-SPANK-ME." Unfortunately, a few children believed this to be a phone number that would allow them to talk to Santa, only to end up calling a real phone sex line.
2. Due to his popularity, Disney made an exception to their "no ex-cons" policy in hiring Tim Allen for the role. Allen had spent just over two years in prison after being arrested for attempted drug dealing in 1978.
3. Carol Kane, playing the Ghost of Christmas Present in 'Scrooged,' pulled Bill Murray's lip so hard during one take that she tore it and production had to be stopped for a few days to allow Murray to heal.
4. All of Bill Murray's brothers who are actors appear in the movie. John Murray plays Frank's younger brother James, Joel Murray plays James' friend at his Christmas party, and Brian Doyle Murray plays Frank's father.
'A Very Harold and Kumar Christmas'
5. The character of Seth Goldstein in 'A Very Harold and Kumar Christmas', played by David Krumholtz, was almost not in the movie. In the film, Harold and Kumar run into Rosenberg and Goldstein and have dinner together at White Castle, but the original scene would have Harold and Kumar escape into a Chinese restaurant and run into Rosenberg, played by Eddie Kay Thomas, and his uncle Johan, who is referenced in the theatrical scene. Tristan Canning, who plays Goldstein's son Noah in the theatrical scene, appeared in the alternate scene, but as Rosenberg's son who has a fascination with Christmas and who Uncle Johan swears isn't Jewish. The original scene would have referenced that Rosenberg and Goldstein haven't been friends for awhile, mirroring Harold and Kumar's relationship. The reason for Goldstein's absence isn't clear, but possibly had to do with Krumholtz's commitment to the television series 'Numbers,' which was still going when the script was written, but cancelled a month before the movie began filming.
6. This is the only 'Harold and Kumar' film not to have Christopher Meloni, who played Freakshow and the KKK Grand Wizard in the previous films. Meloni was originally set to play the role Sergei Katsov.
'White Christmas'
7. Rosemary Clooney was contractually prevented from singing her own part on the soundtrack for 'White Christmas,' since it was being released by a record company other than the one that represented her. Her part was dubbed over by Brenda Lee.
8. The spoof of the "Sisters" act by Bing Crosby and Danny Kaye was not in the original script. Crosby and Kay were just messing around on set one day singing the song and the director decided it was funny enough to be included in the film. The take used in the film was the best take they were able to get as both Crosby and Kaye kept cracking up during the performance.
'Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas'
9. Jim Carrey's make-up in 'How the Grinch Stole Christmas' took three hours to apply, and reportedly made Carrey feel so uncomfortable and confined that he required the assistance of a Navy SEAL who taught him how to cope with and resist torture.
10. Director Ron Howard arrived on set one day at 3 a.m. to get into the full Grinch costume with makeup, directing the whole day as such. When Carrey arrived on set that day and saw Howard, he became upset because he mistook Howard for a stunt double who looked nothing like him.
11. 'Gremlins' and 'Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom' are widely credited for the creation of the PG-13 rating, since both films were rated PG, but contained a great deal of frightening and disturbing imagery beyond their ratings, but not bad enough for R.
12. During one night of filming, there were so many problems with the Gremlins puppets that the whole cast fell asleep on set while waiting for the problems to be fixed.

Quordle FAQs: Everything you need to know
What is Quordle?
Where Wordle challenges you to guess a new five-letter word each day, Quordle presents you with four puzzles to solve. And rather than complete them in turn, you do so simultaneously. You get nine guesses, rather than the six for Wordle, but the rules are otherwise very similar.
It's played online via the Quordle website and you can also get to it via the Merriam-Webster site, after the dictionary purchased Quordle last year.
As with Wordle, the answers are the same for every player each day, meaning that you're competing against the rest of the world. And also as with Wordle, the puzzle resets at midnight so you have a fresh challenge each day.
The website also includes a practice mode - which I definitely recommend using before attempting the game proper! - and there are daily stats including a streak count. You also get Quordle Achievements - specific badges for winning a game in a certain number of turns, playing lots of times, or guessing particularly hard words.
Oh, and it's difficult. Really difficult.
What are the Quordle rules?
The rules of Quordle are almost identical to those of Wordle.
1. Letters that are in the answer and in the right place turn green.
2. Letters that are in the answer but in the wrong place turn yellow.
3. Letters that are not in the answer turn gray…
4. …BUT the word you guess appears in all quadrants of the puzzle at the same time, so an A could turn green in one square, yellow in another and gray in the final two.
5. Answers are never plural.
6. Letters can appear more than once. So if your guess includes two of one letter, they may both turn yellow, both turn green, or one could be yellow and the other green.
7. Each guess must be a valid word in Quordle's dictionary. You can't guess ABCDE, for instance.
8. You do not have to include correct letters in subsequent guesses and there is no equivalent of Wordle's Hard mode.
9. You have nine guesses to find the Quordle answers.
10. You must complete the daily Quordle before midnight in your timezone.
What is a good Quordle strategy?
Quordle needs to be approached in a different way to Wordle. With four puzzles to solve in nine guesses, you can't blindly throw letters at it and expect to win - you'll stand a far better chance if you think strategically.
That's the case in Wordle too, of course, but it's even more important in Quordle.
There are two key things to remember.
1. Use several starting words
Firstly, you won't want just a single starting word, but almost certainly two or three starting words.
The first of these should probably be one of the best Wordle starting words, because the same things that make them work well will apply here too. But after that, you should select another word or possibly two that use up lots more of the most common consonants and that include any remaining vowels.
For instance, I currently use STARE > DOILY > PUNCH. Between them, these three words use 15 of the 26 letters in the alphabet including all five vowels, Y, and nine of the most common consonants (S, T, R, D, L, P, N, C and H). There are plenty of other options - you might want to get an M, B, F or G in there instead of the H, maybe - but something like that should do the trick.
If all goes well, that will give you a good lead on what one or sometimes two of the answers might be. If not, well good luck!
2. Narrow things down
Secondly, if you're faced with a word where the answer might easily be one of several options - for instance -ATCH, where it could be MATCH, BATCH, LATCH, CATCH, WATCH, HATCH or PATCH - you'll definitely want to guess a word that would narrow down those options.
In Wordle, you can instead try several of those in succession and hope one is right, assuming you have enough guesses left. It's risky, but will sometimes work. Plus, it's the only option in Hard mode. But in Quordle, this will almost certainly result in a failure - you simply don't have enough guesses.
In the scenario above, CLAMP would be a great guess, as it could point the way to four of the seven words in one go.
