Work done by Woodmaster Woodworks
Have you ever seen a simply glorious room or house and you wondered what is this or how did they do that? Maybe even thought, what do I call this to be able to look for it or a specific company to incorporate that into my own home? Well, I have often wondered all this- especially working here at Woodmaster Woodworks- I am mystified almost daily by their creations. So, I thought now would be a good time to take the blog back to a beginning with some broad terminology breakdown for your home's interior carpentry (not to boring, I hope) and maybe even follow up the next few blogs delving into certain rooms or segments further. With the blogs opening picture of this beautiful room, I am breaking down the woodworking terminology you will need to incorporate any of this rooms beauty into your own home but I will also add more pictures of other rooms or trim to help illustrate the definitions along the way.
The architectural definition of this is the exposed trim molding around doors or windows, it can be flat or molded. Casing comes in many different options from size to details and can really highlight your windows and doorways. Most homes built today have some form of casing, even if it is just the more cost effective and traditional styles.
Work Done by Woodmaster Woodworks
In the picture above, the window casing surrounding all sides of the trio of windows helps to make the bay window in the dining area the stunning focal point of this room.
Crown Molding
Crown Molding is the molding that tops or "crowns" a surface or structure, usually referring to the molding used at the top of the walls where the ceiling meets the wall or crowns the wall. Again, like casing, crown molding comes in different options of wood species, size widths, paint versus stain, and detailing so there are many options. Since it is such a beautiful and decorative trim molding, it is commonly used for other purposes, as with the "crowning" of structures. Due to this, some of our custom built-in projects are adorned with crown molding. Crown is commonly used in more mid range to higher end homes today but it is virtually impossible to walk into a room, even a simple one, trimmed with crown molding and not take notice.
All of these pictures are various crown molding trim, work done by Woodmaster Woodworks. The last photo is a custom built-in illustrating the use of crown molding at the top of the unit with keynote details to greatly enhance the beauty of this customers finished product. Also, the very top right corner of this last picture shows crown molding at the ceiling in the background.
Chair Rail
Chair rail is the railing that goes horizontally around a room traditionally it was installed 3 feet up from the floor to protect the walls from chairs and other furniture causing damage to the walls. Today it is used strictly for its beauty and to help add a separation to your room for color or wall panel design.
The pictures above all show various uses for chair rail. The top picture is a close up showing detail of the chair rail topping the panels, the second picture shows chair rail topping the panels at a distance as the last part of the white before color begins. The last picture is an amazing, unique, and gorgeous way to incorporate chair rail by building a custom stair case handrail. All work was again done by Woodmaster Woodworks.
Ceiling Medallion
A Ceiling medallion is exactly what is sounds like, a typically circular piece of material that goes on the ceiling under a fixture for decorative purposes. They have many different designs, sizes, colors, materials, and shapes but circle is the most common. They are typically used under an elaborate light fixture or ceiling fan but can be used separately too. The opening picture showed a beautiful, large, lacy style ceiling medallion under the chandelier with a standard ceiling. The next picture shows another style of medallion, also circular but this one is set into a tray ceiling that is defined as a rectangular architectural feature recessed or inverted. Tray Ceilings have a layered, cut into appearance with intricate trim details as shown in the same picture as the ceiling medallion below. They are another beautiful option that I may delve more into on my next blog.
The last part of our beautiful room from the beginning picture is the wall panels. For many of us, the idea of wall paneling or panels paints a horrible picture in our minds of hideous fake panels that made a room darker or did not justify it. Fortunately for us, those days are gone and we are back to the antique or historical look that has always been breath taking and classic. Panels offer many options for design, style, color, and more. Regardless of what options appeal to you, they are all simply stunning and set any room apart.
All three pictures above show various panel styles, all different, all gorgeous. The first is a wainscoting panel in white, the second is double stacked panels, and the last is an entire room done in stain grade recessed panels. All work done by Woodmaster Woodworks.
I hope this has helped to clear up some custom interior carpentry questions or even open new doors for you. I do plan on blogging a little more on this topic so if you have a room or idea on this or another topic, please feel free to comment back. Thank you for following our blog!

On my show earlier tonight, I tried to parody this Desperate Housewives situation. I described a situation similar to what happened in the DH show and then I tried to parody the "leave britney alone" video. I don't think this attempt of levity went over very well (if you have to explain the joke, then it's probably not that funny) However, I have to say (as I mentioned on my show tonight), that there are just a lot of angry people out there.
I have received more than a few e-mails who have told me that since I was born in the US and did my medical training in the US, that I really have no idea and that I really don't understand how offensive that remark was on the show. If I was "really in touch with my roots," I would understand better.
So, let me get this straight. Since I do not agree with your point of view, it's ok for you to make a personal attack on me for being "not Filipino enough" for you - That I have been "Americanized" too much and have lost touch with my true heritage.
Gimme a break! I have listened to the other side of this DH issue. I feel that I do understand it. But, I respectfully disagree with it. Attacking me is not going to make me change my mind. I remember reading a Time magazine article called Is Obama Black Enough?
That's what made me come up with the title for this post. Now, don't get me wrong. In no way am I comparing this situation to the senator from Illinois. I guess it comes down to this: You're not going to make everyone happy, so don't even try. So, instead of personal attacks, let's just agree to disagree, shall we?

These institutes are: -Technical Teachers Institute. -Architecture and Civil Engineering Institute. -Electrical and Mechanical Engineering Institute. -Spinning and Weaving Institute. -Surveying Engineering Institute. -Laboratory Technician Institute. The six institutes have become departments in the College of Engineering Studies. B.Sc degree programs started in 1983. In 1990, the Polytechnic becomes SUST and the College was renamed College of Engineering and new departments were added to it such as: Petroleum Engineering, Biomedical Engineering etc, and in 1997, Aeronautical Engineering was lunched as the first aeronautical engineering department in Sudan. In 2005, the leather and Plastic Engineering departments were added. Recently, in 2007 two new departments were added viz: Chemical and Nuclear Engineering departments, thus the departments number has become 13.

Yippee! Friday night is here, finally! Funny how I have a new appreciation for Friday night since I work full time huh??? It's time for a new sketch at Stamping 411 🙂 Here it is…
And here's my card:
A little stamping therapy is always a little sweeter with some time for watercoloring I think! I haven't used this image in so long, and I really enjoy coloring it so I thought I'd give it another try. I don't know about it…I'm not wild about the colors I chose…I was going with a sort of tiger cat look, and planned the rest of the image around that, but I think I would like a do-over, kwim?
Anyway, here's what I used:
Stamps: Peace Within, Fabulous Phrases
Card stock: Very Vanilla, Early Espresso, Crumb Cake, Watercolor paper
Ink: Crumb Cake, Pumpkin Pie, More Mustard, Cherry Cobbler, Always Artichoke, So Saffron, Early Espresso
Accessories: Early Espresso Satin Ribbon, Linen Thread, Stamping Sponges, Neutrals Brads, Lattice embossing folder, Small Oval Punch, Aquapainter

30 Quotes Introverts Will Totally Understand
Sometimes, when you're feeling a little down, no amount of introspection can help you feel better, even as an introvert. Or, on the flip side, nothing can excite you when you need empowerment like someone else's words that hit you like a kick in the gut.
This week, instead of me writing about how awesome introverts are (as we know!) I thought I would let other people's words do the talking for me. I hope you can find what you need from one of these, whether that be encouragement, sympathy, boldness, or even simple understanding.
This week, break free and thrive!

Travel Trailers
Travel Trailers seem to come in every shape and size these days.
There are: long ones, short ones, ones that have a teardrop shape, the classic 'silver bullet' Airstreams, lightweight ones, ultra light ones, hybrids that are a combination of hard sides and soft sides, hard side telescoping ones that have a lower profile for towing, economical ones, luxurious ones, and ones that haul your 'toys.' In other words, there's a travel trailer to meet nearly everyone's needs.
When looking at travel trailers keep in mind that, in many cases, a 30 foot trailer is a trailer that is 30 feet when both the trailer itself and the front hitch are measured together. A 30 foot trailer may only have 27 feet of usable living space. Ask questions and look at the printed specifications when doing your shopping so you know what you will be getting. To be absolutely sure of the dimensions, take along a measuring tape and measure the length, width, and height of the travel trailer yourself – especially if the space in your driveway or storage area is limited.
What Are the Disadvantages to Owning a Travel Trailer
Just like any other type of camper or RV, there are some things about travel trailers that many people don't like.
The biggest complaint? There is a tendency for travel trailers to sway when they are being towed. Because they are pulled using a rear hitch versus the truck bed hitch used with fifth wheels, they are not as stable.
To best deal with this problem, purchase an anti-sway bar or hitch and don't skimp on the quality. Hensley Arrow and PullRite are the two brands of anti-sway hitches I hear recommended most often.
The other complaint I hear most often is that there is no access to the travel trailer while it's being towed. Unlike a Class A, B, or C motorhome that gives a person access to the living space including the bathroom and refrigerator, you have to pull over in a safe place before entering the interior of a travel trailer.
I'm not saying that owning a travel trailer is going to be a bad experience. Millions of people own travel trailers and are very happy with them. Just make sure you have a vehicle capable of towing the travel trailer, a good hitch, and the ability to be able to wait until you get to the nearest rest stop or gas station to use a bathroom.
Sleeping Capacity
Depending on the size and model, travel trailers can sleep 2-8 people comfortably although air mattresses on the floor can add to that number. Where are the sleeping areas commonly found? Some travel trailers have a bunk bed style sleeping area on one end of the camper that can easily accommodate three people or up to six kids if they are smaller and don't mind sleeping two to a bunk.
Slideouts expand the living area inside a camper and are becoming very popular options. They only extend out 1-2 feet but the difference they made in interior spaciousness is surprising. They do add to the cost and the weight of a travel trailer though.
Some narrow campsites may not accommodate a travel trailer that has slide-outs. If you purchase a travel with slide-outs (travel trailers with 2-3 slide-outs are very popular), pay close attention to campsite sizes when making reservations. Also, try to purchase travel trailer that is still usable with the slide-outs not extended. It wouldn't be much fun to get to a campsite, realize the slide-out(s) can't be extended and have a model that makes access to the bathroom impossible when the slide is in.
If you go to a camper/RV dealership, the first question the salesperson will almost always ask when you state you want to purchase a travel trailer is "What type of tow vehicle do you have?" That's because unless you are willing to incur the expense of a different vehicle to accommodate the weight the of the travel trailer you want to purchase, the tow vehicle you currently have will dictate the size and weight travel trailer you can get.
The dealerships have information on the towing capacities of nearly any vehicle so you don't have to search that information out beforehand if you don't want to but I recommend that people do because it's very disappointing to get to a dealership, find the travel trailer of your dreams that fits into your budget, and then find out that your vehicle doesn't have enough towing capacity to tow it.
The average person spends around $15,000 on a new travel trailer, but the larger more luxurious models rival 5th wheels in cost with their price tags being upwards of $50,000 when they are fully loaded.
Travel trailers commonly range from 14 feet to 36 feet long. It's a pretty big range but that's because there is a big range of choices.
Some of the common amenities found in travel trailers are listed below. Keep in mind that because there is such a large range of sizes and styles of travel trailers, some of the amenities listed below are not going to be available on all travel trailers; while others will be available as optional equipment.For campsites you generally need very quiet and compact generators so you don't annoy everyone.

Conventional Travel Trailers
Conventional travel trailers were the first type of travel trailer to be manufactured and Airstream was the first manufacturer. They made the first "silver bullet" style Airstream travel trailer over 70 years ago and still produce travel trailers with their signature sleek silver skin although there have been many updates over the years.
Conventional travel trailers are roomy and spacious, with all the comforts of home. Kitchens with separate dining areas, island workstations, three or four burner stoves, a microwave, and ample countertop space are common. The bathroom and shower areas are large enough to keep people from feeling claustrophobic in them.
Slideouts are probably the single most popular "extra" feature because they add a lot of living space to the interior of the trailer and giving them a very spacious feeling.
Conventional travel trailers are the heaviest travel trailers though and require a mid-size to heavy duty towing vehicle. They are usually the most expensive of the travel trailers (though the telescoping travel trailers can be more expensive than the conventional).
Lightweight Ultra Light Travel Trailers
Because of the popularity of SUV's, many manufacturers now offer lightweight and ultra-light travel trailers. They are attractive to many RV purchasers because the majority of the trailers in these categories can be pulled by SUV's, minivans, or medium-sized trucks.
Ultra light travel trailer are, just like their name implies, less heavy versions of conventional travel trailers. How do the manufacturers manage to make a lightweight or ultra light travel trailer that is still sturdy? The use of aluminum in the frame construction is usually a key factor because aluminum is lightweight yet strong. Some manufacturers also utilize the features of a hybrid travel trailers by having slide out soft sided beds to help keep the weight down. Lightweight and ultra lightweight travel trailers are also smaller than most conventional travel trailers.
Even though they are smaller and lighter than their conventional counterparts, they still come with a full array of amenities inside with cooking, dining, entertainment, sleeping, and bathroom facilities (in most models).
Hybrid Travel Trailers
Because the biggest obstacle to purchasing a travel trailer is often not having a big enough tow vehicle, travel trailer manufacturers have found several weights to "lighten up" travel trailers so they are not heavy. Hybrid trailers are one of the results. They are hard sided campers with soft sided slide out beds (usually one or two).
They are great travel trailers for families because the slide out beds create extra sleeping areas.
Toy Hauler Travel Trailers
Toy haulers are the fastest growing segment of the travel trailer industry. A toy hauler is part living quarters and part "toy" storage (and when I say toys I mean "toys" for grown-ups like 4-wheelers, snowmobiles, dirt bikes, etc.). Toy hauler travel trailers tend to have industrial or sporty looking living interiors. Many have a wall to separate the living area from the storage area with a door for access in between. The storage area can serve a dual purpose with pull down beds and seating area to use when the "toys" are outside or not being used on the current trip.
Even though part of the interior is used for toy storage, the space in the rest of the travel trailer is put to good use with kitchen, sleeping, bathroom, and entertainment areas.
Toy hauler travel trailers are definitely a specialty use type of travel trailer. There's no need to consider purchasing one if pedal bicycles are the only extra pieces of equipment you take when camping. In that case, installing a bike rack on your tow vehicle or camper is your best bet.
If you want to learn more about toy haulers, be sure to read our complete guide to toy haulers.
Telescoping Travel Trailers
A type of hybrid travel trailer, telescoping trailers fold down for easier, lighter weight, low profile towing. At the campground, they are quick and easy to set up and have hard sides unlike popup campers which have soft sides.
How quick can they be set up? TrailManor is a popular manufacturer of telescoping travel trailers. They say their travel trailers can be set up with the push of a button in two minutes. And, they can be opened or closed in the rain because it's completely self enclosed and none of the interior spaces are exposed to the elements during the set up and take down process.
Hi-Lo is another popular manufacturer of telescoping travel trailers.
The downside of telescoping travel trailers is that their are expensive for their size because of the mechanical systems used for raising and lowering them.
Teardrop Travel Trailers
Teardrop travel trailers are small, have distinctive teardrop shape, are lightweight which makes them a good travel trailer for someone who doesn't have a heavy duty tow vehicle. The most common setup in a teardrop is the sleeping area inside the camper and the cooking area outside underneath the back "hatch" area. They don't typically have any bathroom facilities.
Teardrop trailers first appeared in the 1930's and it was common for people to build their own with plans published in Popular Mechanics magazine. Today, a popular activity is for people to buy old teardrop campers and restore them.
There are several teardrop camping trailer manufacturers in the United States. For a more detailed description of teardrop trailers and for a listing of teardrop trailer manufacturers, read our guide to teardrop trailers.

Robots, Arduinos and Careers: Students explore STEM in new Thinkabit Lab
Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) is a big buzzword in education. It is also the focus of a new collaboration between Virginia Tech and the chipset manufacturer Qualcomm.
On Sept. 8, Qualcomm's first Thinkabit Lab on the East Coast opened on the campus of Virginia Tech's Northern Virginia Center in Falls Church, Virginia. The lab offers students from local schools and underrepresented minorities the opportunity to gain hands-on experience with STEM careers and experience what it is like to be an engineer. At the same time, the lab helps train teachers and sponsors research into STEM education.
The lab gives students a wide degree of latitude to discover and explore STEM careers and ideas during a visit. Students even have the opportunity to build their own creations using materials provided by the lab, including toys and Arduino micro-controllers.
"Most students can't resist cutting the head off a stuffed animal, pulling out the insides and inserting the micro-controller or servo motors inside," said Jim Egenrieder, director of the lab.
However, the lab is about more than just having fun. The collaboration between Virginia Tech and Qualcomm aims to create the next generation of innovators.
"We know that STEM skills can enhance every student's future, regardless of (his or her) field of study, and we need to prepare both students and teachers to address the complex challenges of tomorrow," said Virginia Tech President Tim Sands in a press release. "The Thinkabit collaboration with Qualcomm will allow us to join complementary strengths and work synergistically to create opportunities and lower barriers."
The lab is the second Thinkabit Lab for Qualcomm. Another facility opened in 2014 in the company's San Diego, California, headquarters. That facility has served over 8,000 students and been replicated by schools and libraries in California.
"Inspiring and motivating local youth to excel in STEM subjects is vital to building the nation's brightest workforce right here in San Diego," said Kevin Faulconer, mayor of San Diego, in a testimonial on the Thinkabit Lab website. "The Qualcomm Thinkabit Lab serves as a model for the rest of the country by exposing more kids to STEM career paths, encouraging them to study STEM and preparing them for new opportunities in the 21st Century."
Qualcomm chose Virginia Tech for its first university partnership because of the university's already-existing contacts in the northern Virginia school systems. The 2,600-square-foot facility is located in a building used by both Virginia Tech and the University of Virginia, easily accessible by public transit.
"The work that Qualcomm and Virginia Tech are doing at this new Thinkabit Lab is remarkable," said Qualcomm CEO Steve Mollenkopf, who received a B.S. in electrical engineering from Virginia Tech, in a press release. "Beyond being a space to inspire the next generation of inventors, it will allow ... us to leverage the expertise of both organizations, and through research and practical application, we will bring new advancements to STEM education at all levels."
Local educators and community groups involved with STEM education can schedule a visit for students at the center using an online form. Once the students arrive, they embark on a four-hour tour through a lab that offers everything from career training to robots.
The students' first stop is the World of Work Lab. In that space, students learn more about STEM careers: what is involved, the education and training required, predicted incomes, and projected career growth. The lab works with students to identify careers interesting to them and teaches them how to talk about the career with parents and others.
Students also get cards to go along with their I.D. badges that they carry with them throughout the lab with information about the particular careers they are interested in.
After the World of Work Lab, students are taken to the Robo-Crafting Lab, where they are given the opportunity to learn about STEM careers through play. Students are given some elementary instruction in electrical circuitry and learn how to program microcontrollers. Then, they are given free range to build something of their own creation.
"We let them loose on a big colorful wall filled with crafts and toys and encourage them in teams of two to build a unique, robotic craft driven by an Arduino micro-controller," Egenrieder said. "They range from fun to funny, occasionally practical and, often, quite clever."
At the end of the session, students share their inventions with the group. Egenrieder says that this process will help create the next generation of professionals, who will need a wide array of skill sets to succeed in the changing global job market.
"Recognizing that most people who visit our lab may still be working full-time in 2070, you can imagine that the workplace and workplace technology will be very different than it is now," Egenrieder said. "We want to train these young people to be flexible, adaptable and curious."
The Thinkabit Lab has benefits beyond helping students discover STEM careers. The lab also provides teachers and administrators with resources to teach about STEM and offers educator tours to teach adults about the lab's ideas. Faculty, graduate students and undergraduate students are encouraged to use the lab for research into education. Some faculty have already begun developing projects based on access to STEM through the lab.
The lab is located at 7054 Haycock Rd. in Falls Church. It is open Tuesday through Thursday from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. and by appointment Monday, Friday and Saturday. The lab encourages those who are interested in a class visit or educator tour to fill out a request form at thinkabitlab.com/virginiatech.

Many things have been said about Detroit Gary Wiggins from being called a Bird of Paradise to him being a "Blues God"...
But there is one thing that can not be argued and that is when he blows his sax you feel it and the entire house is swinging. Keeping to the tradition of the great tenor saxophonist of 1940's And 1950's swing and R&B aera Gary is a favorite among dancers and listeners who appreciate the blues with their jazz.

Herring Vs. Sardines and the Benefits
Herring and sardines are two types of fatty fish. As such, they derive a large percentage of calories, 50 percent or more, from fat. Some of this fat is in the form of omega-3 fatty acids, whose benefits include lowering triglyceride levels, blood pressure, and decreasing risk of abnormal heart beats, according to the American Heart Association, which recommends at least two servings of fatty fish per week. Both fish are good sources of protein and other nutrients, but certain key nutritional differences exist.
Vitamin D
Vitamin D is a fat-soluble with hormone-like functions in the body. Its major role is in maintaining calcium balance. Calcium is necessary for strong bones. Additionally, vitamin D is important for proper immune function and blood pressure regulation. Sources include sunlight, fortified foods and animal products. Per 100 g, sardines contain nearly 200 international units, or IU, of vitamin D, which is about 30 percent of the daily recommended intake for adults. In contrast, herring does not contain vitamin D.
Calories, Fat and Cholesterol
Fish derive their calories from protein and from fat. As fatty fish, herring derive 65 percent of calories from fat. Per 100 g serving, which is equal to about 3.5 oz and contains 250 calories, herring contains about 18 g of fat and 100 mg of cholesterol. Sardines are lower in calories, derive fewer calories from fat, and contain less cholesterol. Per 100 g, sardines contain 185 calories, 10.5 g of fat, and roughly 60 mg of cholesterol. Sardines are therefore a better option if you are counting calories or watching cholesterol.
Vitamin B-12
Vitamin B-12 is an essential water-soluble vitamin that plays a role in nerve tissue and blood cells. Deficiencies are common in older adults, notes the Linus Pauling Institute, and symptoms include anemia and memory loss. Adults should aim for 2.4 mcg per day of vitamin B-12. Sources include fortified foods, such as breakfast cereals and nutritional yeast, and animal products. Both sardines and herring are excellent sources of the vitamin. Per 100 g, sardines and herrings each contain about 9 mcg of B-12, or over 300 percent of the daily requirement. No health risks are associated with intakes of too much B-12.
Other Nutrients
Both sardines and herring are high in several other key nutrients. Sardines are higher in iron and calcium, though herring provide roughly 10 percent of the recommended intake of these minerals. Both are excellent sources of the mineral selenium, which functions as a free-radical scavenger, also known as an antioxidant, protecting your cells from the damage due to oxidative stress. Sardines contains nearly 1.4 mg of vitamin E, another antioxidant, while herring does not contain vitamin E. As mentioned, these fatty fish are rich in omega-3 fatty acids. Herring provides over 2 g per 100 g serving, while sardines offer over 1.2 g.

Key Specifications

"'Platforms: PS2, PSP, PC, Xbox, Xbox 360, GameCube, DS, GBA – Xbox 360 version reviewed."'
I was a big fan of Need for Speed: Most Wanted on the Xbox 360. Despite the fact that Project Gotham Racing 3 grabbed all the headlines when the X360 launched, I actually enjoyed NFS more. Don't get me wrong, PGR3 was a stunning game to look at, but when you've bought yourself a McLaren F1 after only a couple of hours of play, there isn't much incentive to drive around those damn cones one more time. Yes, for me NFS: Most Wanted may have been a far more simple game, an arcade racer if you like, but it was also a far more enjoyable game.
Although the cars didn't look as staggeringly realistic as the vehicles in PGR3, NFS: Most Wanted was arguably a better looking game. It wasn't so much the cars (although these did look superb), it was more the environment that blew me away. NFS: Most Wanted had some of the best lighting effects seen in a console game, and the feeling of speed was second to none. Even the odd drop in frame rate couldn't spoil the overall spectacle that this game produced. But it wasn't just a pretty face, Most Wanted also give you a shot of adrenaline in the arm every time you played it, along with a career mode that kept you wanting to take the next Blacklist driver down, while keeping the cops at bay. So, it's fair to say that I was quite keen to get my paws on Need for Speed: Carbon and see if EA had improved on the Most Wanted formula.
The first thing that struck me when I fired up Carbon was that EA definitely believes in the old adage "if it aint broke, don't fix it". It's safe to say that Carbon plays very much like its predecessor, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Many developers will change a winning formula just because they feel that they should. But for me, the idea of extending my Most Wanted experience into Carbon was exactly what I wanted. Don't get me wrong though, Carbon isn't just a rebadged version of Most Wanted, there are improvements and additions, but they are quite subtle.
Although the game engine is clearly the same beast we saw in Most Wanted, Carbon harks back to the Need for Speed: Underground era, where all the action happens at night. In some respect this is slightly disappointing since you miss out on all the beautiful lighting effects as you drive toward the sunset, or emerge from a tunnel and find yourself momentarily blinded. That said, things have moved on considerably since the Underground series, and the streets don't look like they're constructed from polished glass, while the rain looks and feels like an environmental effect rather than pure eye candy. And although the autumnal, sun dappled lighting from Most Wanted is missing, the effects created by street lights, headlamps and shop fronts is no less impressive.

The race wase founded by retired schoolteacher Bernard Baldwin to commemorate the life of legendary runner Guto Nyth Bran.
Nos Galan committee member Andrew Morgan said yesterday: "We are delighted to once again have two great sports people representing the spirit of Guto Nyth Bran."Related content
Last night those present joined together to sing Calon Lan.
The hymn has been adopted as the anthem of the New Year's Eve event.
The crowd were led by the children of Cae Garw primary school. The youngsters have recently researched the history of the song.
They discovered the hymn was written by poet Daniel James when he was living in the Cynon Valley town. It was first performed at Bethania Chapel in Mountain Ash in 1910.
Deputy head teacher Huw Griffiths said: "We've had people contacting the school saying they are a relative of Daniel James, and they're living in the Mountain Ash area.
"We've had the parents and the local library involved. We've been to the day centre and Troedyrhiw homes to show our research.
"It's been very exciting."

Former Republic of Ireland player Liam Miller dies after battle with cancer
Miller also played for the likes of Manchester United and Leeds.
Former Republic of Ireland midfielder Liam Miller has died aged 36, his first club Celtic have announced.
Miller, who also counts Manchester United, Leeds and Sunderland among his former sides, had been suffering from cancer.
Celtic tweeted: "Everyone at #CelticFC is deeply saddened to hear of the passing of former midfielder Liam Miller. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends at this time. RIP Liam, YNWA."

RIP Liam, YNWA. pic.twitter.com/vMkT1CtJ2m
Reports emerged in November that Miller had been battling pancreatic cancer and was receiving treatment in the United States, where he played for Wilmington Hammerheads.
Wilmington, who Miller played for in 2016, were the last of 12 clubs that the Cork-born midfielder represented during a 16-year career that took him around the world.
He made his professional debut for Celtic in 2000 after coming through the youth ranks at Parkhead and helped them win the Scottish Premier League title in 2004.
He then moved south to Manchester United on a free transfer, making 22 appearances under Sir Alex Ferguson in two seasons – which included a spell on loan at Leeds – before joining Sunderland in 2006.
Miller was part of the Black Cats' squad that won promotion to the Premier League in 2007 but he was on the move again in 2009, this time to QPR.
A short spell at Loftus Road was followed by stints at Hibernian, Australian clubs Perth Glory, Brisbane Roar and Melbourne City, home-town club Cork City and, most recently, Wilmington.
Miller won 21 caps for the Republic of Ireland after making his debut in 2004.
Celtic announced that a minute's silence would be held before their Scottish Cup tie with Partick Thistle on Saturday, and said the team would wear black armbands as a tribute to Miller.
The side were among several of the player's former clubs who tweeted their condolences on Friday night.
Leeds wrote: "Everyone at Leeds United are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of former #LUFC midfielder Liam Miller. Our thoughts are with his family and friends."
Leeds also added a video of Miller scoring the winner in a dramatic 4-3 victory over Southampton in 2005.
Thank you Liam 💙💛 #MOT pic.twitter.com/c4BZqNhGGK— Leeds United (@LUFC) February 10, 2018
Sunderland did likewise, tweeting both their condolences and also a clip of Miller in action in a 2007 match against Derby, where he scored another late winner.
The Championship club wrote: "We are saddened to hear this evening that former #SAFC midfielder Liam Miller has passed away. Our thoughts are with his family and friends at this time."
Thanks for the memories, Liam! 🔴⚪ pic.twitter.com/NHksyd4Tv4— Sunderland AFC (@SunderlandAFC) February 9, 2018

Staying the course, and always doing the next right thing, is good sound advice.
When the chatter in my head is running at fever pitch, and my emotions seem to rule every decision or thought at times, I know that I need to stop and take a break.
Read: I need to STOP and Pray !!!
Funny how things fall into my lap, when I most need them. Or, little signs from somewhere outside of myself, seem to appear, in front of me, at the oddest moments.
I have told the story about my I-Phones tendency to shuffle me a speaker, one speaker in particular, when I really need a talking to. It seems to know me better than I know myself at times, which begs the question … Are Our I-Phones sentient ???
Thursday night, after the meeting I was really emotional and I realized that I was not done mourning the passing of my father. Because of a comment made about him, amid a conversation with a friend, at the earlier meeting.
We were talking about care giving and being a care giver for family and significant others and how tasking that is on everyone involved. A few days prior to this chat, the National News carried a story about just this topic, and how the province of Quebec is going to step up and help care givers of patients and family in assisted living facilities.
I told him the story about my father, when I was in eighth grade, how, when his mother had a very serious stroke, and in a VERY LUCID moment, outside of his alcoholism, he thought that IF he took ME to Connecticut to see her, he believed, from somewhere deep within him, that if she looked at me and recognized me, that she would in essence,
What we did not know about serious stroke paralysis was apparent.
Who knew from the now famous "Stroke Treatment" delivered within a very short time from falling into stroke, can avert serious paralysis. That drug did not exist in the early 80's.
We took a night flight out and arrived late that evening in Connecticut. My uncle picked us up and took us to his house. The next morning we ate breakfast and they drove me to The New Britain General Hospital.
I was not prepared at all for what was coming.
We got to Grammy's room, and she was laid out, drooling spittle, half her face was in her lap, and the entire right side of her body was paralyzed. I took one look at her, and I fainted. My head hit the tile floor and I ended up in the emergency room that morning.
She indeed, did NOT wake up. However, she knew who I was. I could not rouse her from her lethargy. I sat on her bed for a few weeks time, to no avail.
In the end, a few weeks later, I returned home defeated. My father was crushed.
It is my belief that he held that little trip against me and never forgave me for not being able to do the job, HE BELIEVED, I needed to do for him. His alcoholism cranked up to 200%. And the abuse ratcheted up 200% as well. Whenever he drank, it was me he came after.
Which is why, as time went on, I found other houses to stay in, so I did not have to be at home. I spent an inordinate amount of time sleeping at successive friends houses over the ensuing years, just to get away from my father.
A functional abusive alcoholic can have lucid moments of brilliance and compassion and thought. Interspersed with the drinking came incredible kindnesses. My father paid dearly, in "Things" to assuage my pain that he himself caused me.
When my friend mentioned to me the other night that "My father KNEW that my grandmother loved me more than any other, i.e. my brother, it was me he took on this trip because "we" (my grandmother and I are spiritually connected).
When I got very sick, it was Grammy who visited me and stayed with me, when everyone else fled the scene. It took a psychic to tell me this, because she would come into my apartment and my bedroom door was always closed, (at that point) at which time she would move pictures on the walls, and scatter magazines all over the floor, until I invited my friend to come over and tell me what was going on …
In his words to my ears: He told me Grammy was standing in my living room, and had been there for a long time, looking after me, and she could not quite figure out how to get through the door, (after which time, I never slept with another bed room door closed, to this very day). She still visits me on occasion here !!!
That comment unnerved me to the degree that I came home an emotional mess and when I got home, I sat down and wrote it all out and did my Step 4 at the same time.
I went to bed Thursday night, not so myself.
Friday, I left for the meeting as usual. I got to the church, and unlocked, and began my set up routine. I was still, not in the right frame of mind. I grabbed the coffee pot, from the cabinet and lo and behold, a single sheet of paper fell to the floor at my feet, from the stack of papers we have to one side of the cabinet.
I picked it up, as it fell face down, on the floor, and took a look at the newspaper clipping. It was a newspaper clipping telling the story of the house where Bill W. was born, in East Dorset, Vermont.
The house is NOT on any map. You would have to know, before hand, where you were going in order to get there, because there aren't any signs along the way saying …
THIS WAY TO BILL'S HOUSE !!! This is the actual house as it is.
Anyways, I read the article and thought to myself, wow, I had never seen this article in the cabinet before, so there has to be a reason it fell out, onto the floor, at just the most opportune moment.
Which hearkened me back three years to the weekend that my then sponsor, my best friend Joe, and I, were on our way to a men's intensive at Mad River Barn, not far from East Dorset that very weekend.
And ON THE WAY … We visited Bill's house where he was born. We also visited Bill and Lois' grave, just up the road in a very small and non-nondescript cemetery. If you did not know the cemetery was there, you'd not know to go there and pay your respects to the Founder and his wife.
Coming back to the present moment, I was in my head, clearly not myself, standing there alone in a church basement, with this piece of paper in my hand, and the very clear and resonant memory in the front of my brain.
Another of life's synchronicity.
These little spiritually ignited occurrences happen often to me. And when I most need them, HP does the trick and sends me a sign from above, to remind me, that I am well cared for, and there is always someone up there, looking out for me.
The weekend was a success. It has been Hotter than Hell in Montreal since last Friday, and the heat wave will continue through Thursday night, later this week.
It has been UNBEARABLE !!!
I am chairing this month at the Monday meeting, and we read from the Big Book. Before the meeting I was sitting outside the hall, thumbing through my Big Book, looking for a suitable passage to share with the group. And I happened upon the story:
Alcoholics Anonymous Number Three … Pioneer of Akron's Group No. 1 The first A.A. group in the world …
And I came to the end of the story where he is having breakfast with Bill and his wife Henrietta, and Bill says to her:
"Henrietta, the Lord has been so wonderful to me, curing me of this terrible disease, that I just want to keep talking about it and telling people."
This one sentence is A.A. Gold…
The reading, in the end, speaks about an Absolute State of Grace and Gratitude.
Which brings me this realization as I am sitting here typing these words that:
If you don't have a topic for a meeting, the default is ALWAYS
We've come full circle now.

White House admits Border Crisis is 'Larger than We Anticipated'
The refugee crisis involving large numbers of unaccompanied children crossing the Texas/Mexico border is catching White House officials off-guard -- they claim. Between October, 2013 and May, 2014 over 47,000 unaccompanied children have crossed the border and been captured by Border Patrol agents and other law enforcement officials. The big question now is, "where do we put them?"
On May 17, Breitbart Texas reported Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Jeh Johnson declared a "level-four condition of readiness" for the South Texas sector of the Border Patrol. This declaration allows the DHS to request assistance from other agencies like the Department of Defense (DOD), Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
Meanwhile, children continue to be kenneled in South Texas.
Breitbart Texas is seeking additional information about this humanitarian crisis.
This week, Breitbart Texas Managing Director, Brandon Darby, announced the creation of a Border Security and Public Corruption Tipline for people who have knowledge of or information about the discrepancies between what Washington D.C. is saying about this crisis and the reality of what is happening on the ground along our southern border.
The number for you to call is 877-204-2033 or you can email Darby via firstname.lastname@example.com.

What better way to kick off November than with a three-day weekend? Sure, some things might be closed today (it's a national bank holiday), but what awaits during the rest of the month is worth the slow start. In fact, there's one event in particular – a Florence for Free original – that we can't WAIT to share with you. We hope you'll partake – read on to find out more!
Music Around the City | November 2 – 9
While you're passing time waiting for the most EXCITING event of the month (hint: it's listed next), treat your ears to these three very different musical experiences. Saturday, November 2nd, you can check out a free Gregorian Chant concert in the Santa Croce Refectory. This month's Thursday at the Square follows on November 7th with cool cats Mandrake performing pop tunes for the fashionable crowd gathered at Palazzo Strozzi. Complete the trifecta on Saturday, November 9th by enjoying the Florence Choir's renditions of traditional tunes surrounded by the grandeur of the Salone del Cinquecento in Palazzo Vecchio. After a week serenaded by some of the area's most talented musicians, your ear will be perfectly tuned for the cultural trivia we will be throwing your way for…
Our FREE ART WALK with Patrik Lundell! | November 15
Excuse the all-caps, but WE ARE SO EXCITED FOR THIS! Equal parts scavenger hunt, art show and culture walk, Florence for Free has teamed up with local artist Patrik Lundell for an interactive tour that is unlike any other the city has seen. Patrik originally hails from Stockholm and was recently featured in the The Florentine's Expats in Florence. In addition to being a full-fledged artist, he also collects recycled pieces of cardboard, creates unique works of art on them, and then leaves the works around the city for explorers to snatch up each Friday.
Considering his ethos very nicely matched ours (free, sustainable & art appreciation) we found it only natural to team up for a free art walk that celebrates the best of Florence, both past and present. On that Friday, we will release a walk with 20 locations; to reach each stop, you'll have to solve an art history trivia question about past Florentine creative greats. But the reward will be sweet: at each point, a piece of original artwork by Patrik himself will be waiting, and it's yours for the taking! Now, there are two tricks to this: 1. try to get to your chosen spot fast, as the first one to reach each location will claim the artwork; and 2. don't worry if you haven't brushed up on your art history, the answers to each of our trivia questions can be found on this blog!
We'll announce all the details, like start times and small hints, as the day comes closer. But what do you think? A little brain power is all it takes to get a piece of original artwork while touring our beautiful city? THIS is what FFF lives for! Stay tuned!
Firenze Marathon | November 24
This year marks the 30th time this race will wind its way through the streets of our favorite city. Even if you didn't think to bring your running shoes to Florence (or aren't up for a leisurely 26.2-mile stroll), cheering on from the sidelines will still max out your endorphins without fully taxing your form. Plus, moral support is the only payment required for observing all the action. Looking to run? The sooner you register, the more funds you'll save. If you're hoping to avoid the crowds, here's the route to avoid today.
The Santa Croce German Christmas Market | November 27 – December 15
If we hadn't outdone ourselves with The Free Art Walk, the start of this event definitely would have been the highlight of our month. This traditional German Christmas Market, or Weihnachtsmarkt, brings the best of Bavaria to the Santa Croce piazza. Mulled cider, giant pretzels, and German ornaments surprisingly fit perfectly here; wandering through these stalls is like taking a free, festive mini-trip to the Alps! Open 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. each day; here's the link for more info.

This site will give you a great deal of useful information about the legal rights of children, including a schedule of ages at which chidren have legal rights and can be legally responsible.
We will also give you direct access to a large number of selected topics and sites so that you will easily be able to answer any question, or solve any problem, you may have.
The ages at which young people are legally permitted to do certain things have always caused interest.
A child, as defined by the Children, Young Person's and their Families Act 1989, is a person up to, but not including, the age of 14.
A young person is defined by the same Act as a person aged 14, 15 and 16.
If you are 17 years or older, and commit any offence or crime, then you appear in the full adult Court.
However, you can marry at the age of 16, fly an aircraft solo at an earlier age, be the subject of care of protection proceedings in the Family Court up to the age of the 17th birthday but can also still be the subject of a Child Support claim by the custodial parent against a non custodial parent until the age of 19.
There are certain restrictions on entering into contracts up to the age of the 18th birthday.
Custody and Guardianship Orders can be made under the Guardianship Act 1968 until the 20th birthday but only in exceptional circumstances against the wishes of the child when the child turns 16.
In other words, there is no "age of majority" as such because different age limits apply to different areas of our law.
Check out our full list at the bottom of this page.
We assume you have entered this index site on NetLaw for a particular reason. We therefore direct you to the following index sites which are relevant to the general topic of children.

By Drew Olsen (@drewjolsen)
For a team that entered 2014 with middling expectations, securing 50 points for the first time in MLS club history and making the playoffs was no small success for the Whitecaps. But this is a team that has finished with between 43 and 50 points each of the last three seasons and been eliminated twice as the 5th seed in the playoffs. Vancouver is beginning to take on the same role Costa Rica occupies in CONCACAF qualifying; both are good teams that can be counted on to pose a challenge to any opponent, but are not contenders to finish near the top of the standings.
To try to change that reputation the team is building a young, talented roster led by 2nd year coach Carl Robinson. It is a roster that is unlikely to win MLS Cup in the next season or two, but has lots of promise for the future. With eight homegrown players 22 or younger plus the addition of Young DP Octavio Rivero, the future looks bright in Vancouver.
Expectations are tempered for 2015 and it will be difficult for the Whitecaps to make the playoffs again in a competitive Western Conference, but that does not mean this season won't be a success. With an average roster age less than 24, this year is likely to be a stepping stone towards eventual success in Vancouver.
There is plenty to build on from last season, beginning with the Whitecaps' stingy defense. Allowing only 1.17 goals per game last year kept Vancouver in many games, and our expected goals metrics suggest they actually got a bit unlucky by allowing as many as they did. In other words, the quality of this defense was no fluke.
David Ousted was an exactly average keeper last year, and it's unlikely much will change for him in 2015. Jordan Harvey started every game last season, and he will again join Steven Beitashour at fullback. The question mark comes from the center of defense, where last year's starters for much of the year, Johnny Leveron and Andy O'Brien, have both moved on. If the quality on the backline of 2014 is to continue, it will have to come with a new centerback pairing. Kendall Waston looks likely to take one of the starting spots, with newcomers Pa Modou-Kah and Diego Rodriguez fighting for the other starting position. The 34 year old veteran Kah comes from Portland, where he has been in and out of the starting lineup for two seasons. Rodriguez joins from Uruguay, by way of La Liga side Malaga. It is not an understatement to say the Whitecaps' season may depend on the ability of its defense to mesh.
Anchored by DPs Pedro Morales and the now officially signed Matias Laba, the midfield will again be one to be reckoned with. Morales' 20.75 xG + xA was 4th in the league last season, and he will continue to be relied on to create for the young attacking corps. Laba isn't afraid to get stuck in, and should provide a valuable bit of protection in front of the new centerbacks.
Russell Teibert returns on the left side after a disappointing 2014. A lot was expected from him after two goals, nine assists, and 35 key passes in 2013, but he managed no goals and just two assists and 24 key passes, despite playing 2000 more minutes last season. Erik Hurtado may end up on the right, and also might compete against the aging Mauro Rosales for playing time. Rosales started the final 10 games of the season after coming over from Chivas USA, but at age 34 he set a career high for most minutes since coming to MLS. Whitecaps mainstay Gershon Koffie will also try to regain a foothold in the midfield after missing the end of last season with injuries.
Despite the hype surrounding young strikers Kekuta Manneh (20 years old) and former Rookie of the Year Darren Mattocks (24), scoring proved difficult last season. The 42 goals Vancouver netted were 6th worst in the league and six fewer than any other playoff team. To bolster their attack, Young DP Octavio Rivero was signed from Chile, where he scored 10 goals in only 18 appearances last season. Rivero looks ready to contribute from day one, having scored a brace in his preseason debut.
Vancouver has a very young team that looks to be both fun and frustrating to watch this season. While the attack has been improved, a drop-off in defensive quality is likely. It will be difficult to return to the playoffs in a loaded Western Conference, but if the defense can meld and Rivero can score, the sky is the limit.

The problem with gratefulness
I usually open up the box and share the chocolates with the rest of the healthcare staff. A kilogram box of Cadbury's Heroes can be emptied in this manner in under fifteen minutes. I am usually able to save a couple of bite-sized pieces of Timeout at the risk of having my hand chewed off by the cocoa-maddened crowd. It's like throwing a fresh carcass into shark-infested waters.
Even so, I have put on 5 kg in the last 3 months. This is entirely due to the consumption of two or three chocolate pieces a day because nothing else in my lifestyle has changed. 5 kilos of chocolate weight! If this goes on any more, I shall be able to roll myself into work.
I am thinking of going swimming regularly at the local leisure centre. However, I have difficulty spending an hour in the pool just doing laps. I get bored and end up playing with water instead. Anyone have any suggestions on pool exercises I could try, just for a bit of variety?

Geometric Rugs
Mon-Sat 9 a.m – 5 p.m
Cash, check, all cc
Glamorous. Mesmerizing. Timeless. Such indeed are geometric rugs. Nothing adds a greater finishing touch to an interior than a perfectly matched carpet. And what may be better than the versatility of figures, the abstraction of design and the order of symmetry? After all, they say that mathematics is the queen of the sciences, is it not? There is no way of resiting the charm of angular elegance exuded by this kind of interior ornaments. Their clean, clear, orderly esthetics will convince even the most demanding connoisseurs of decorating, leaving them in awe. Although we tend to associate geometric design with futurism, it may come as a surprise to many that this sort of rugs does not necessarily has to be placed in ultimately modern spaces. The category is broad and vast, not so easy to put into stiff frames as it comprises of many different patterns, trends and movements as well as a considerate number of high-end designers involved.
The general definition of geometric motifs is that they are abstract, nonrepresentational shapes such as circles, lines, ellipses, triangles, rectangles or polygons. But there is so much more depth and history behind it. It is worth mentioning that one of the most beloved and widely renowned type – Scandinavian, especially Swedish rugs – are a model, historical example of the use of geometry in design. There, a cross symbolizes a flower and a rhombus is a diamond – every figure has its own distinctive meaning. Moreover, we have Art Deco – an extremely influential style, which draws abundantly from geometry, composing figures in a way to obtain intricate, unobvious patterns, keeping them stylish at the same time.
A geometric carpet has many faces – each and every one of them worth attention and admiration. When combined with bold colors, they have the power of enlivening an interior, whereas with the application of toned, pastel hues they may transform a room into a soothing oasis. No wonder, they are in the spotlight among world's greatest designers, who not only pick them for interior projects, but are also the authors of some of those beauties. One of the brightest examples is Kim Alexandriuk, whose beautiful creations are the essence of the geometric chic. So let yourself get carried away by 'diapers', checked pattern, stripes or 'harlequins' and fall in love with geometric splendor.

Spent some time in Sydney over the last week with Stephen Rae who is composing the soundtrack for Beaconsfield. Being a story that takes place predominatley underground, early conversations were about 'elemental' and 'organic' sounds. The sound of rocks, air and water and music that forms in and out of the environment. For the past few weeks (amongst our discussions about cameras, watches and motorbikes) we have been working through demos and musical sketches and these ideas are now becoming more defined. Through Stephens sonic explorations we have settled on the clarinet as one of the key instruments. I must admit I've never been drawn to the clarinet, I tend to steer clear of 'reed instruments' in general, (except I'm quite fond of the oboe), but the way Stephen is using it is really different. Then I realised there is a whole album I love that uses the clarinet in a beautifully textured and ambient way. So I'm really looking forward to see how it all keeps progressing.
Below: Sydney mid afternoon storm, recording studio flowers and Peter Jenkin (lead Clarinet of the Sydney Opera) recording clarinet sounds for Stephen to compose and edit with.
