There are plenty of ideas you might consider when converting a garage, and it really depends on how you want to better use the area. Some popular designs include bedrooms, children's playrooms, offices, gyms, art studios and even home cinemas. The possibilities are endless and you could even join the garage onto another habitable room to create one big extra living space.
The removal of a garage door allows for many different choices for a facility owner. Because of the size of a garage door, you can choose whether you want that whole wall in brick or would like a second door or window there. A garage existing concrete floor is also usually lower than main house flooring.
It's important to think about what sort of design you would like to have when you convert this part of your home. This will make it easier for us to draw up some plans and suggest ideas for how to set up the room. If any structural repairs need to be done we can also take a look at this and decide on the best course of action to make the process affordable for you. We're able to fit the whole garage conversion project around your budget and what you want so don't hesitate to let us know if your special requirements.
Our team of experts have worked on many domestic projects for homeowners looking to create a more useable space in their house. Garages are often used as storage areas for keeping clutter and junk, however, we can redesign these areas to turn them into habitable rooms.
Whether you want to create a guest bedroom, an office or a place for children to place in a connected or detached garage, we will put together some plans which would be perfect for you. To find out more about redevelopment https://www.architectural-designers.co.uk/redevelopment/ speak to our specialists today!
When thinking about garage conversions costs, there are lots of factors that you need to consider within the plans. The structure needs to be checked with building regulations and also needs to be stable with a sufficient ceiling height that leaves enough headroom to make it habitable.
There should also be a watertight roof to ensure that the finished room will be safe and dry during wet weather. Weather conditions are the main factor to consider for a garage conversion as you won't want any flooding or dampness. You also need to make sure that fire safety is correctly installed.
If the existing structure is unsound, the overall cost will usually be more as the issues will need to be fixed prior to any other work. It could even be cheaper to knock down the garage section if it's separate from the house and build a new one from scratch.
Depending on the type of design chosen, this will also affect the overall price for the garage conversions. There will be fees for designing and planning the layout of your new room, and of course, different fixtures and fittings will come at a range of prices.
You should also think about the planning permission which might need to be permitted beforehand and the value that will be added to your home by converting the space. Planning permission is one of the first steps of a garage conversion as it is usually required in most cases to be able to convert your garage.
However, if there is a shortage of space for parking on your road, you may be taking value away from the house by changing the garage into another room. This is something to check before starting to make plans. We can provide you with all of the information you require. If you are enquiring about a single or double garage, please get in touch and we will reply as soon as possible to help you.

Gáspár Bakos, a Princeton University assistant professor of astrophysical sciences, was one of 16 researchers nationwide to receive a 2012 Packard Fellowship for Science and Engineering. Bestowed by the California-based David and Lucile Packard Foundation, the fellowships are meant to support early-career research with limited funding or reporting requirements. Each fellow will receive a grant of $875,000 over five years.
Bakos, who joined the Princeton faculty in 2011, focuses much of his research on extrasolar planets — those outside of Earth's solar system — and on studying the cosmos with small telescopes. Bakos brings these two areas together under HATNet (Hungarian-made Automated Telescope Network), a planet-hunting project he designed and launched in 1999 as an undergraduate student at Eötvös Loránd University in Hungary.
In announcing the fellowship, the Packard Foundation cited the next iteration of Bakos' HAT project: "Bakos proposes to develop and operate a wide field camera system, called HATPI, which will continuously image the entire visible night sky at high spatial resolution and high photometric precision. The HATPI movie-of-the-sky will have an enormous scientific potential in detecting a large number of transiting extrasolar planets, detect many transient 'flashes' and issue alerts on moving objects."

Ground down by Robinson Secondary Schools relentless running game, the T.C. Williams Titans found themselves surrendering an early lead and facing their second consecutive loss of the young season.
Senior center Aaron Tovsky, like many of his teammates, was as grim as the overcast and chilly weather after the 27-13 defeat September 17. There was no easy explanation for the loss.
We just didnt make the plays you have to make, he said. It really comes down to making plays. Weve got to start looking inward and decide if we want to win these games.
The Titans were riding high after scoring on the games opening play. A timely Robinson fumble put junior quarterback Alec Grosser back on the field long enough to connect with tight end Jamal Williams in the end zone.
Undaunted by the 13-0 deficit, the Rams leaned heavily on their ground game, churning out three- or four-yard runs to march steadily down the field, seemingly unopposed.
Robinson, which came into the game 0-2, would take the lead early in the second quarter after running back Tyrek Worrell broke free for a 61-yard touchdown run. Heading into the locker room for the halftime break, the Rams enjoyed a 21-13 lead.
As the Titans struggled to put together a comeback, the squad was hamstrung by sloppy penalties and an inability to capitalize on the Robinsons mistakes. T.C. head coach Dennis Randolph was incredulous.
They had three drives when they marched down field and scored, he said. We didnt stop them at all. Thats a lot of free yardage. Thats ridiculous.
Robinson stuck doggedly to the ground game. Rams quarterback Michael Hugney didnt throw the ball until midway through the second quarter. His next pass, minutes into the second half, connected with tight end Nate Foote to put the Rams up 27-13.
While the Rams enjoyed success with the run and occasionally in the air, Grosser fought to get the Titans offense running on all cylinders. Despite showing moments of brilliance Grosser found wideout Landon Moss for big gains they fell short time and again.
Afterward, Grosser was candid about the miscues.
The good teams, they discipline themselves and stop making mistakes, he said. I think in the first couple of series we caught them off guard, but it wasnt the game we wanted.
Moss chalked it up to lack of focus.
When we needed it most, we just lost our focus, he said. We just have to come together and stop [playing as] individuals.
Randolph described it as a team-wide problem. With the pressure on, the Titans couldnt get the run going, couldnt play their kind of football, he said. And the penalties didnt help.
You cant go up 13 points and then let teams drive on you, he said. Its all about confidence. Its fourth down and [the defense] gets [the stop] and theres another penalty. Thats all about confidence.
The home opener defeat puts the Titans at 1-2 on the season. After whipping Wakefield to start the season, T.C. fell 28-13 to Westfield. Now the Titans head to Lorton to take on the winless South County Stallions.
Theyre ready to put the loss behind them and move on, Grosser said. You have to have a short memory, the junior said.
Well get out next week and do it, Grosser said.

"The wife of a former justice of the peace is being held on a capital murder charge in the killings of the Kaufman County District Attorney, his wife and a top prosecutor," The Dallas Morning News reports.
WFAA-TV says that "Kim Williams, [46] the wife of former Kaufman County Justice of the Peace Eric Williams, was arrested and charged with capital murder."
The Associated Press is less specific on the charges:
"North Texas authorities have arrested the wife of a former justice of the peace who was charged with making a terroristic threat in connection with the killings of a district attorney and his wife. Kim Lene Williams was arrested early Wednesday. Online jail records do not list charges against her. Officials in Kaufman County wouldn't immediately comment on the reason for her arrest."
In case you're just hearing about this case, Kaufman County (Texas) District Attorney Mike McLelland and his wife, Cynthia Woodward McLelland, were found shot to death at their home in Forney, Texas, on March 30. Kaufman County is also where Assistant District Attorney Mark Hasse was murdered on Jan. 31.
Early in the investigations, suspicion fell on the Aryan Brotherhood of Texas.
Then, over this past weekend, Eric Williams was arrested on a charge of making a terroristic threat. The Associated Press has reported that:
"Authorities allege he emailed an anonymous threat to law officers from his personal computer one day after Kaufman County District Attorney Mike McLelland and his wife, Cynthia, were found dead in their home on March 30. The email implied that if authorities didn't respond to various demands, there'd be another attack, according to a probable cause affidavit released by the sheriff's office.
"Williams' arrest came after federal and local agents investigating the couple's deaths searched Williams' home and a storage facility, and investigators are now focused on trying to build a case against him, according to the law enforcement official, who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the ongoing investigation."
Now, there's the arrest of Kim Williams. And the Morning News adds that "law enforcement officials have said they expect capital murder charges to be filed against her husband. ... Eric Williams, also 46, has repeatedly declared his innocence."
McLelland, the slain district attorney, and his assistant Hasse prosecuted Eric Williams last for the alleged theft of three computer monitors. Williams was given probation. The case is on appeal, according to the Morning News.
Update at 1:40 p.m. ET. Charge Confirmed, $10 Million Bond Set:
Authorities in Texas confirmed a short time ago that Kim Williams is being charged with capital murder. The Morning News says the arrest warrant alleges she did "murder more than one person." According to the newspaper, she's accused in the deaths of Hasse and the McLellands, but law enforcement authorities say "she is not believed to be the actual shooter." She's being held on a $10 million bond. Officials tell the Morning News they expect to also soon file additional charges against Eric Williams.
Update at 11:08 a.m. ET: The AP now writes that it's been told by a source that Kim Williams is being charged with "capital murder."

Regulatory Compliance: Meeting Requirements and Optimizing Liquidity Risk Longevity
Basel III and Dodd-Frank are placing new requirements on liquidity management that banks can address if they take an enterprise-wide approach to data and analytics.
Liquidity risk is moving to the forefront of the regulatory agenda, and as a result, financial institutions, especially banks, are faced with a new compliance and business reality. While final details remain in flux, there is no question that Basel III and Dodd-Frank will bring more structured and stringent liquidity requirements, as well as greater compliance complexity, to the industry.
Traditionally, regulations have largely shaped financial institutions' risk management programs. Today, however, progressive firms, focused on more proactive management of their businesses, are beginning to look to risk management, including liquidity risk management, as a strategic tool that can deliver valuable and timely views of costs and profitability.
Banks face two distinct sets of challenges when addressing liquidity risk requirements. First, they must work to achieve compliance – setting up the operational infrastructure and policies that support ratio calculation, capital realignment, and reporting requirements.
The second, and arguably more daunting challenge, is the ability to optimize liquidity. Under the liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) requirement, the stock of high quality assets is tightly defined, and one can expect to see a sustained escalation in the price of high-quality government and corporate bonds as demand for these asset classes increases. With the cost of liquidity steadily increasing, banks seek ways to become more efficient in how they manage liquidity, given various constraints emanating from the regulatory landscape and market variability.
While most financial institutions are focused, first-and-foremost, on building a foundation for achieving and managing their LCRs and net stable funding ratios (NSFRs), it is important to avoid a "quick fix" approach when creating a platform to manage liquidity risk. Instead, banks should also look ahead and begin to plan for future optimization needs. Liquidity risk management, and ultimately, optimization requires a flexible IT infrastructure that can adapt to an ever-changing regulatory landscape and business objectives.
To accurately calculate liquidity risk, as well as model options for how best to optimize it, banks must effectively integrate the liquidity risk framework and the governance of other risk, including credit and market risk, via a unified data model and enterprise analytical platform. Many firms, however, retain a stove-piped environment filled with point solutions that preclude visibility and hinder data consistency, traceability, and availability.
In addition to adopting an enterprise-platform approach, banks should consider the following to create an analytical environment that not only facilitates regulatory compliance and sets a solid foundation for future liquidity optimization, but can also enhance a bank's overall profitability.
• Does the bank have full and timely visibility into the balance sheet and all cash flows? A financial institution cannot meaningfully manage or optimize risk until it has visibility into its entire balance sheet – spanning retail, commercial and wholesale operations.
• Does the bank have visibility into contingent exposures, including off balance sheet exposures? Tier one banks with significant collateralized off balance sheet exposures realize that increased market volatility will create additional margin requirements, which is a major drain on funding. Banks need to know, at the most granular level, what exposures they can have on and off the balance sheet, by product, currency, counter-party, and more.
• Can the bank rapidly create liquidity risk stress testing scenarios? Stress testing is here to stay, and banks can count on it to be more rigorous and frequent, with regulators specifying much faster turnarounds. As such, financial institutions require analytical solutions that enable them to rapidly define scenarios, adapt them as needed, and store them for reuse.
[See Related: Lessons Learned From The Fed Stress Tests]
• Can the solution estimate liquidity gaps in business as usual (BAU) conditions, as well as under various extreme conditions scenarios? Banks are looking to define specific BAU and shock conditions at various levels of granularity and then apply them to contractual cash flows either as absolute value or percentages to estimate the liquidity gap under normal and extreme conditions. A bank's risk management framework should support a wide range of assumptions and provide flexibility to help model and apply multiple shocks of varying magnitude to the BAU assumptions. Further, it should support comparison between scenarios to identify the most plausible conditions to use when making strategic decisions.
• Can the solution calculate liquidity ratios and funding concentrations enterprise-wide and for each currency, product, and counterparty? A liquidity risk management solution should give financial institutions the flexibility to calculate the LCR and NSFR using their specified parameters for liquidity horizon, liquidity haircuts, and funding factors to support compliance.
• Does the solution enable the bank to model and create "what if" scenarios and analyze various options to address liquidity shortfalls? Banks require the ability to model and create "what if" counterbalancing strategies to combat liquidity gaps under normal and stressed business conditions. With the ability to define multiple counterbalancing strategies on the same baseline and stressed liquidity gap reports and analyze them across multiple dimensions, banks can readily identify and adopt the optimal course of action as part of their liquidity management strategy.
• Does the bank's liquidity risk management framework create a foundation for analytical analysis that will enable banks to continually optimize liquidity under normal and stressed conditions? Flexibility, scalability, and a unified data model are essential to future optimization initiatives. To optimize liquidity options, organizations must be able collate a wide spectrum of relationship data and process it rapidly to yield a set of strategies that reflect the dynamics of the current market environment.
When it comes to liquidity risk, the stakes are high for today's financial institutions. It is important that they create an infrastructure that not only meets short-term compliance requirements but also lays a foundation for future needs, including additional regulatory requirements, as well as the compelling desire to optimize liquidity management.

If you are looking into getting yourself a starter kit in Halltown then you have come to the right place, we have some of the best available in the UK to buy online.
For smokers looking to explore new options and possibilities, tossing cigarettes and moving on to electronic cigarettes is the most popular and stress-free way to go. Around 5.4 million people per year die from smoking-related illnesses, and all of that pain and heartache, along with the physical torment, can be avoided with the help of switching to electronic alternatives. Our suggestion for smokers who want to get into vaping is to purchase a high-quality e-cigarette starter kit from one of the top-rated companies out there, VaporFi is a great company with excellent customer support – we highly recommend checking them out in Halltown .
The reasons why people decide to go with vaping will vary. Some want to cut down on their cigarette intake, and others just want to quit smoking for good. With e-cigs, there are many public places in which vaping is allowed, and you are free to enjoy your e-cigarettes as you're out and about. For the "social smokers" among us, who only smoke when enjoying a drink, we have several vape starter kits that allow you to have the same enjoyment of nicotine and flavor, without the actual harmful tobacco. Starter kits are available in an array of different setups, and you can expect some variation of vape devices, batteries, vape tanks, e-cig cartridges, e-liquids, chargers and cases included, such as:
Starter kits are available in different price ranges and assemblies. There really is something for everyone, depending on your preference and budget. Always make sure you research the companies you're purchasing from, however, and err on the side of caution and go with the more reputable names to ensure you get a high-quality product.
Also, make sure your e-cigarette gives off the appearance you want. Customizing is often available, and different colors for the clearomizer and battery, as well as standard colors like black, white and stainless steel can allow you to have an attractive and stylish-looking vape device. To build your own vape starter kit, head here.
If you are wanting a more advanced experience, many vaporizer and mod starter kits are available with more high-tech features compared to a complete beginners starter kit. If it's a variable watt/ high-voltage mod kit you're after then I would recommend an advanced vape mod . However, if you are a new user we definitely recommend going for a starter kit tailored for beginners until you are more versed in how vaping works, and you have a firm understanding of vaping and what appeals to you. A retailer we suggest and trust is VaporFi which provides any level of vaper with a ton of different options from vape mods to vape pens to electronic cigarettes.

Phantom Limb Pain and Chronic Pain
Topic Overview
Phantom limb pain is pain that is felt in the area where an arm or leg has been amputated. Although the limb is gone, the nerve endings at the site of the amputation continue to send pain signals to the brain that make the brain think the limb is still there. Phantom limb pain can be mild to agonizing and even disabling for some. And it may lead to a lifelong battle with chronic pain. Women who have had a breast removed because of breast cancer may also feel phantom pain.
Some people experience other sensations such as tingling, cramping, heat, cold, and squeezing along with pain. You can feel any sensation in the portion of the limb that was removed (your "phantom" limb) that the limb might have experienced before it was removed.
You may also have residual limb pain or "stump pain" at the actual site of the amputation. You may feel cramping, burning, aching, or sensations of heat or cold in the residual limb.
Successful treatment of phantom limb pain may be challenging. Treatment is usually based on the amount of pain you are feeling. Many treatments may be tried and can include applying heat, massaging the area of the amputation, and biofeedback to reduce muscle tension in the residual limb. Other treatments that can be tried are acupuncture, medicines (such as anticonvulsants and antidepressants), and sometimes surgery to remove scar tissue entangling a nerve. Usually, the best approach is to combine multiple treatments.
Other treatments may include transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) of the residual limb. Sometimes using TENS on the portion of the limb that is still present can help with phantom limb pain. You may benefit from physical therapy and use of an artificial limb (prosthesis).
One treatment that is becoming more popular is mirror therapy. For this therapy, you place a mirror so that the reflection of your intact limb looks like your missing, or phantom, limb. You then look at this "virtual" limb in the mirror. And when you move your intact limb, without pain, your brain "sees" painless movement in the phantom limb. Mirror therapy may help some people who have phantom limb pain. The studies done so far have been small, and the results have been mixed.footnote 1
When other treatments have failed, electrical stimulation of the spine may be tried to relieve chronic phantom limb pain, though results have been mixed.

- Reseller may be eligible for a refund of an Order in the following circumstances:
- Registration of a Registered Name that is deleted within the add-grace period established by the appropriate Registry Operator and for which the Registrar is eligible to receive a refund from the Registry Operator. In most circumstances, the Registry Operator requires that such deletion be requested within five (5) days of the date of the registration;
- Non-explicit renewals of a Registered Name for which the Registrar is eligible to receive a refund from the Registry Operator. In most circumstances, the Registry Operator requires that such refund must be requested within thirty (30) days of the date of the non-explicit renewal; or
- Whois privacy services that are canceled in association with Registered Names eligible for refunds pursuant to Section 6(e)(i)(i) or (ii). Such refund must be requested within thirty (30) days of the date of the Whois privacy purchase or renewal.
- Registrar reserves the right to issue refunds in its sole discretion at any time in connection with the events set forth in Section 6(e)(i)(i) and (ii) (each, a âRefund Event"), solely where Registrar is able to obtain a full refund from the Registry Operator for amounts paid by the Registrar for the transaction applicable to that Refund Event. If a refund is issued by Registry Operator to Registrar for a Refund Event, the amount paid by Reseller to Registrar for the transaction reversed by the Refund Event will be credited to Reseller's credit card on file, or if Reseller has an Advance Account in place at the time of such refund, to such Advance Account, in either case within fourteen (14) Business Days of the date that Registrar actually receives the relevant refund from the Registry Operator for the Refund Event. Refunds will not accrue, and shall not be paid under any circumstances, if (A) Reseller does not submit a request for a refund to Registrar within the timeframe required by the Registry Operator in Sections 6(e)(i)(i) and (ii), (B) Reseller does not include current Reseller Contact Details with its request for such refund, or (C) Reseller's credit card information is not on file with Registrar at the time the refund is first due to be paid or Reseller does not then have an Advance Account with Registrar. Registrar is not responsible for refunds that cannot be issued because Reseller has not provided Registrar with up to date Reseller Contact Details or does not have an appropriate credit card on file.
- Reseller may be eligible for a refund of an Order in the following circumstances:
- Pricing. Registrar will display the current price for each Registrar Service within Reseller's account. Registrar has the right to modify its pricing at any time, and any such modification will be binding and effective immediately upon notification by email to Reseller or upon posting within Reseller's account.
Expiration of Registered Names.
