Tenet trailer: Dimple Kapadia joins John David Washington, Robert Pattinson in Christopher Nolan's time travel epic
Mumbai - 20 Dec 2019 12:49 IST
Updated : 12:58 IST
On the same day she plays the stereotypical mother in the Salman Khan vehicle, Dabangg 3 (2019), Dimple Kapadia shows off her mystique in the trailer for Christopher Nolan's Tenet (2020). The trailer captures a typical mind-bending storyline that alternates between the past and the present, as expected from the director of Memento (2000), Inception (2010) and Interstellar (2014).
The trailer begins in Mumbai at the Worli seaface the sight of actors John David Washington and Robert Pattinson preparing to climb a building, except they fly towards it when the moment comes. It is as though they are moving in reverse. This reversing of time comes through further when Martin Davidson tells Washington, 'Welcome to the afterlife'.
A mysterious trailer that raises more questions than it answers, it is fascinating, well-shot, and definitely has a buzz around it. With the threat of something worse than a nuclear holocaust at hand, Washington is tasked with preventing it. 'You have to start looking at the world in a new way."
There were several shots of the actress shooting alongside Nolan and the rest of the cast including, Robert Pattinson and John David Washington in Mumbai back in September 2019. The actress looks to be playing a mysterious guide to Washington's character in the film.
Tenet is set to release in theatres on 17 July 2020.

What is informal dating? Casual dating or possibly a casual erotic relationship between two those who might have simply casual gender or at least an extremely close bulgarian brides emotional connection without actually expecting or perhaps requiring the other individual to make the same type of dedication as a more conventional romantic relationship would require. When we talk about casual going out with, we are certainly not talking about a love affair, premarital gender, or just an informal relationship that someone participates in gently. Rather, i’m speaking of a romantic relationship where there is no legal or different binding contract involved, wherever sex is normally engaged in casually and just seeing that easily, and with no intention of at any time connecting the 2 main individuals once and for all in a important way.
The difference between casual dating and a serious romance is that informal dating participants do not expect a serious romance to appear out of the preliminary stage of just having a great and sharing personal thoughts. This does not suggest however that casual dating is inherently a reduced amount of fulfilling than the kind of romantic relationship some long-term couples take part in, as some permanent couples carry out engage in informal dating as well. It just signifies that the motives behind the casual seeing actions are different than one would normally expect currently in a relationship. This big difference can lead to a lot of casual seeing participants producing deeper mental bonds and even relationships that last longer than those that would be regarded as “casual”.
Some folk use the words “casually dating” to describe casual sexual romances that one partner might embark on without actually being very worried over if the other spouse feels not much different from the way, or whether they think the same way. This phrase is also used to describe interactions like the ones that a college college student might have which has a person that they have just met and who’s more or less an acquaintance rather than a potential romantic spouse. Some of these situations are going to be less serious than others, depending upon the circumstances, but it is still possible to have a lot of pretty good romances developed this way. So what is it that can generate a relationship becomes more of a everyday experience than one that is somewhat more or a lesser amount of based on romantic endeavors?
One motive that everyday dating may be better for you than something like a long-term relationship is that casual situations usually give you a prospect to explore your own interests. When you are just chilling out and not trying to make a long-term dedication to anyone, then you will be much more likely to experience all sorts of fresh and interesting things. It can be part of being human to always be considering what is going on around us, what is going on in our natural environment and that which you can carry out to improve existence. If you take tasks lightly, then you will never possess a chance to set those interests into play. On the other hand, through things very seriously and you are looking to build a relationship based on realistic friendship and a preference to improve your own life, the casual mother nature of the communications will help you to keep your interest with their life and allow one to pursue many goals.
One more that everyday dating can be a good thing for you is that it will be easy to experience facts with someone that you would be unable to do with another long lasting partner. This is especially true if you happen to be the kind of individual that is really certainly not looking to start a family with only one person and is also open to various relationships. When you are just hanging out with someone you know, you are going to sometimes overlook the own needs and desires and this can result in problems.
But in actuality that most those who are doing casual dating performing so since they want to let go of their connection to one person and handle more than one person. That is something that could work well for these people but it also can lead to problems if you let it get from hand. You must be honest on your own about how often you really want for being in a long lasting fully commited relationship with someone so you don’t end up ruining the chances as you casually night out them. Casual dating can be a great place to leave go of attachments and will also be a great place to start understanding someone new.

Martha Hill, Dance Educator, Is Dead at 94
The New York Times
November 21, 1995
Martha Hill, a pioneer in American dance education who founded the American Dance Festival in addition to dance departments at Bennington College and the Juilliard School, died on Sunday at her home in Brooklyn. She was 94.
A tall, big-boned woman with an irreverent sense of humor and a no-nonsense approach to training modern dancers, Ms. Hill was of incalculable importance in the development of modern dance in America. She came of age in the field when the art was taught, if at all, as an adjunct to college physical education courses. By the 1980's, when she retired from teaching, universities throughout the nation offered undergraduate and graduate degrees in dance.
In her zeal to encourage and promote modern dance, Ms. Hill combined performances by leading creative figures with the dance divisions she established at college summer schools. She founded the Bennington School of the Dance and its summer festival at Bennington College in Vermont in 1934and the Connecticut College School of the Dance in New London in 1948. The American Dance Festival (which moved to Duke University in Durham, N.C., in 1978) was founded by her at Connecticut College as an outgrowth of the Bennington program.
The festivals provided exposure and creative opportunities to most of the major modern-dance choreographers at crucial times in their young careers. Festivals at Bennington were a proving ground for Martha Graham, Doris Humphrey, Charles Weidman and Hanya Holm. Performances and classes at the festival offered much-needed early support to choreographers including Jose Limon, Alwin Nikolais, Merce Cunningham, Paul Taylor and Alvin Ailey.
"A queer lot, these dancers," Ms. Hill, who doubled as a square dance caller at parties at Bennington, wrote of the hectic summers in a 1950 article in The New York Times. "And yet, not queer. The first attribute of life is action. To dance is to be intensely alive."
At such festivals, she continued, students are exposed to the three fundamentals of dance education: technical training, watching great performers and participating in good talk. Her hope, she wrote, was that the young dancers could come out of the experience "with an informed attitude toward dance where they no longer secretly use the 19th-century classification of dance that is 'graceful, ungraceful or disgraceful,' nor yet again fall victim to the old fundamentalist quarrel between the traditional ballet and the experimental modern dance, which is now only a tale with which the elders sometimes divert the young."
Ms. Hill, who was born in East Palestine, Ohio, came to dance through studies in music and the Dalcroze technique of rhythmic analysis. She received a bachelor's degree from Teachers College of Columbia University and a master's degree from New York University.
She performed with Graham from 1929 to 1931, but committed herself to dance education early on, joining the fledgling dance faculty at New York University in 1930. education early on, joining the fledgling dance faculty at New York University in 1930. She became its director and established a graduate program there, leaving in 1951 to found the dance department at Juilliard, which she directed until 1985. She was associated with the Bennington summer school and festival from 1934 to 1942. In 1948, Ms. Hill re-created the school and festival in New London where they remained until 1978.
Ms. Hill never subscribed to the kind of specialization she helped to foster in dance. She was determined to train performers at Juilliard, where she drew in leading ballet and modern-dance choreographers as teachers. But many of the students at the avant-garde Bennington sessions were gym teachers rather than professional dancers. "I have always said that dance is an art," Ms. Hill told Anna Kisselgoff, chief dance critic of The New York Times, in a interview in 1982. "Dance in education and dance in the theater are not different things. The degree of proficiency may vary but the aim is to do dance as dancing, and to teach it as dance."
Ms. Hill also taught and choreographed at the University of Chicago and Kansas State Teachers College in the 1920's and 30's, at the University of Oregon and in colleges throughout the nation. In Australia, she was a co-director of the choreographic conferences of the University of New South Wales in Sydney and the Victorian College of the Arts in Melbourne.
Ms. Hill was a consultant for the United States Office of Education and wrote the dance section in a teachers' manual in 1943. She was also the chairman of the advisory committee for modern-dance series at City Center in 1949. She received honorary degrees from Adelphi University, Bennington College, Mount Holyoke College and Towson State University. Other awards include the City of New York Mayor's Award of Honor for Arts and Culture, in 1984.
Ms. Hill was married to Thurston Davies, who died in 1961. She is survived by a brother, Lewis, of Lake Alfred, Fla., and a step-daughter, Judith Dilts, of San Jose, Calif.

"The explosive action of Wanted comes to Blu-Ray hi-def with perfect picture and perfect sound."And a terrible script, but at least it's all loud and pretty.
"Critics call Wanted the most visually inventive, trailblazing film of its kind."And that kind is "movies that suck."
"Angelina Jolie has never looked hotter."She's made a hundred million dollars trading on her looks, so I doubt she minds, but essentially calling her a piece of meat in the ad copy is a little much.
Speaking of her looks, note how disturbingly thin her arm is in that airbrushed poster art. She doesn't look like that in real life, nor should anyone want to.
"James McAvoy simply rocks."The next person who buys a movie because James McAvoy is in it will be the first. Hats off to his agent for getting this line in there.
"And Morgan Freeman elevates Wanted to the next level."And that level is "otherwise forgettable Morgan Freeman vehicle."
"Discover the true origins of the Fraternity with an all-new alternate opening only on Blu-Ray."If it's an alternate opening, doesn't that mean it's a different take that you filmed but chose not to include in the canonical movie, but are including as an inducement to buy the home version? If so, how can that be considered the true origins? I guess if the theatrical opening doesn't speak to the origins, it could be. Arguably. Either way, I find this line distracting and annoying (much like the other lines). Grade: C-.
"Plus, create your own video commentary to watch with the movie and send to your friends."Technologically interesting, but I don't know which is less likely: my buying this movie, my creating my own video commentary, or my mustering the sheer balls to send that commentary to my friends and suggest that they watch it. Actually, they are all equally likely, with a probability of zero.
It's vain enough that I continue to pound away at this blog in the hope that my friends might occasionally check it out. Shockingly, they actually do. At least they can read it while they're bored at work. I would never be so presumptuous as to think they'd devote their weekend couch time to my commentary on a silly action movie.
Who would possibly do this commentary thing, either the recording or the watching? Is this aimed at 12-year-old kids? I'm not even trying to be rude (this paragraph, anyway), I'm seriously baffled at who would have any interest in this.
Also, if I thought I were that good a writer, I'd move to Santa Monica and bang out scripts for half a million per, I wouldn't send them to my friends. Eliot Spitzer's whore didn't give it away for free and neither would I. Even if my commentary were snide and sarcastic, MST3K's already been there and done that.
"Wanted. Rated R. Own it now on 2 disc Blu-Ray hi-def for the perfect hi-def movie experience."Wait, wait, wait. Did you say it was on Blu-Ray?
Also, I love the way movie studios use the word "own" when they mean "buy." We've cracked your code, Hollywood. You had us for a few years but now we know what you mean.
Of course, I haven't actually seen the movie, so maybe it's great, though I don't recall too many critics or fans feeling that way. All I'm saying is, the ad is convincing me not to check it out.
Apparently Wanted was a pretty good graphic novel. If anything, I'd look for that.
With this installment of my half-baked opinions, I'm Andy Rooney. Good night!


Hemet Police Chief Dave Brown has announced his intention to challenge Riverside County Sheriff Stan Sniff in the 2018 election.
Brown announced his plan to run on Sept. 18, saying, “The people of Riverside County can no longer tolerate a sheriff who repeatedly blames his deputies and the Board of Supervisors for his failure of leadership. It’s time to put people first again and take politics out of the Sheriff’s Department.”
Brown, 51, is a Hemet High School graduate and has been Hemet police chief since 2011, and will remain so until the end of the year.
Brown was behind Measure U, which raised the Hemet sales tax for more money for public safety, police and fire. Measure U was passed in November after a similar attempt, Measure E, was defeated in June.
The sheriff is elected by all the voters in the county, but supervisors are already taking sides. On Thursday, Sept. 21, Brown announced that 3rd District Supervisor Chuck Washington has already endorsed his election.
In Brown’s press release, he quotes Washington: “This county needs a sheriff who is willing to work with the board and his deputies to solve complex problems. Chief Brown has a proven track record on both fronts and that’s why I’m supporting him for sheriff in 2018.”
Sniff was appointed sheriff in 2007, after the resignation of then-Sheriff Robert Doyle. He was elected to a full four-year term in 2010 and re-elected in 2014.
Funny.. I see none of the scathing comments castigating the Hemet Police chief for the lousy job he’s done in Hemet, now enjoying one of the highest crime rates in the entire country. On his brief watch, Hemet crime rates have skyrocketed three times higher than those of our immediate neighboring cities. This despite the fact Hemet authorized measure U raising the sales tax which pumped additional millions of dollars into the city’s coffers. I recall pro passage politicos pounding the message to its citizenry higher taxes were necessary to combat the endemic crime problem in this community. We got what we voted for. Nothing. It is clear that if Hemet or any other city wants more of the same, they absolutely should vote for this person. IYou will get more of the same and deservedly so. Additional millions allocated for protection of citizenry from thugs which now populate virtually all of Hemet will do NOTHING to reverse the horrendous crime statistics we now enjoy, all because we have zero talent running law enforcement locally.
Hi there, I read through a few of your articles here.
I did have a question though that I hope you could
answer. I was wondering, How do police officers understand/learn about laws in order to make arrests?
What training do police receive on laws/ legal issues?
And how do they stay up-to-date on new laws?
I would really appreciate any help you could give me!

Q.I’m scared. My mom is depressed. I saw that Robin Williams committed suicide because he was depressed. My mom has done rehab. I saw that happened to Robin Williams, too. My gram says my mom is doing just fine. She said I’m worried about nothing. But I know people lie to kids like me to try to protect them. I don’t understand why a person with everything like money and fame would want to die. My mom isn’t famous, and we’re not rich. Should I talk with her? What if I talk with her and she gets mad at me? I love her and I want to keep her safe. One more thing. I don’t think I’ve ever been really depressed but sometimes I hear my friends say they are. Then later they’re happy. Do you think my friends are in danger?
Mary Jo’s response: Your questions show the beauty of your spirit; you are a sensitive, caring young person. I admire your courage in talking with your gram and then writing to me. I respect your concern for your mom. I won’t lie to you.
Depression is real and can be very serious. People don’t just “snap out of it” any more than a person with a broken leg can heal without professional help. Many people don’t understand mental health and mental illness. Depression isn’t a person’s fault. Not all people who deal with depression consider suicide.
I’m very glad you spoke with someone in your family. Your gram may be telling you the truth. Your mom may be just fine right now. I don’t think you’ll feel better until you talk with your mom, though. I’m sure your mom knows about Robin Williams’ death. Sharing your fear will give her a chance to tell you how she feels. Families are all different. Some families talk about everything, while other families avoid talking about serious subjects. Your mom may not talk about her depression or her addiction because she wants to protect you. Once she knows you’re concerned she may feel safe talking with you.
Your mom needs to know you love her. She needs to hear you say how much you want her to be safe. Many of us forget to tell the people closest to us how much they mean to us. If you share your love and your desire to keep her safe, I doubt your mom will be angry.
Please remember your mom is an adult. You are not responsible for her choices. If she is depressed, it isn’t your fault. Your love for her is wonderful, but she needs the help of professionals to be healthy. Think of that broken leg. If your mom had a broken leg, no one would expect her to limp around on it, hoping it will heal on its own. Depression is treatable, but a person needs to seek help.
When friends say, “I’m depressed,” they may not be dealing with serious depression. People often use words without thinking of their exact meaning. Most people feel sad at one time or another. Clinical depression is different from feeling sad one moment and happy the next. Young people your age may be going through puberty – a time of growth when emotions can change quickly, like a roller coaster. Feelings can have rapid ups and downs.
Signs and symptoms of serious depression may include:
1. Sleep problems, from insomnia to oversleeping.
2. Appetite changes, which may include weight loss when not dieting.
3. Low energy.
4. Loss of interest in pleasurable activities.
5. Trouble concentrating or making decisions.
6. Feeling hopeless, helpless or worthless.
7. Neglecting personal appearance or responsibilities.
8. Feeling irritable or anxious.
9. Thoughts of death or suicide.
Depression is not logical. People suffering from clinical depression may not be able to see a way out of their problems. Thinking clearly about the situation may not be possible. Depression can affect anyone, including people who are famous and have a lot of money.
There are many good people and agencies ready to help anyone in need of counseling. The Washington County Crisis Line is 1-877-225-3567. The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (http://www.suicidepreventionlifeline.org/) is available 24/7 at 1-800-273-TALK (8255). A trained counselor will connect to the caller. You are not alone, and neither is your mom.
I asked a former peer educator who is now an adult to offer you support. He dealt with his dad’s depression when he was your age. He told me to share his thoughts: When I was young my dad went through a very serious depression. He tried to take care of it himself by drinking. It was scary. I went to Mary Jo and my pastor for help. Together they helped my dad get treatment. My story ended well because my dad has been sober and OK for over 20 years. What I remember most about being 12 was feeling helpless. I couldn’t control my dad’s depression. You can’t control your mom’s mental health, but you can stay in touch with trusted adults who support you. If I had known at 12 how well life would turn out, I would have worried a lot less. Try to enjoy being a kid. I hope everything works out for you, too.
I echo his wish and hope all is well. Please stay connected.
Have a question? Connect with Dr. Mary Jo Podgurski at email@example.com.

Electric vehicles could create as much as 18 gigawatts of extra demand for electricity — the equivalent of the capacity of nearly six Hinkley Point nuclear power stations — at peak times by 2050, according to National Grid. The operator of Britain’s electricity system has analysed the potential impact on demand at busy times of the day, such as after working hours, if forecasts for rapid growth in electric vehicles by 2050 are realised. Its analysis follows several developments that suggest the growth in electric vehicles might accelerate dramatically over the coming decades, with Volvo Cars announcing last week that every model it makes from 2019 onwards would have an electric motor. France has also set an example to other governments by saying it would ban the sale of petrol and diesel cars by 2040. National Grid is assuming electric vehicle sales could account for more than 90 per cent of all cars in the UK by 2050, with 1m on Britain’s roads by the early 2020s and as many as 9m by 2030.

A dramatic growth in electric vehicles on Britain’s roads could see peak electricity demand jump by more than the capacity of the Hinkley Point C nuclear power station by 2030, according to National Grid. The number of plug-in cars and vans could reach 9m by 2030, up from around 90,000 today, said the company, which runs the UK’s national transmission networks for electricity and gas. The impact of charging so many cars’ batteries would be to reverse the trend in recent years of falling electricity demand, driven by energy efficiency measures such as better boilers. National Grid acknowledged the cars’ batteries could also provide services andreturn power for the grid at a time when managing the network is becoming increasingly complex as variable sources of wind and solar power grow.

This week I made a rather interesting journey – the kind you do without burning a litre of diesel or lifting a single pole of a tent. In fact I never, for once, left the comfort and warmth of my house – thanks to the miracle of the Internet and WiFi.
But still I traveled in cyberspace and went back in time in search of the origin of the Kenya shilling and the journey it has taken to be here today. The story I uncovered was as interesting and intriguing as I had expected.
Long before Kenya began printing and minting its own currency in 1966, under the Central Bank of Kenya Act, cap 491 mandate given to the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK), various forms of currency were being used as legal tender in the country.
I traced the earliest use of currency in Kenya to the 1800s and 1850s at the Kenya Coast. It was at that time the Maria Theresa Thalers were introduced. The Thalers were 18th and 19th Century silver coins used by Indian, Greek and European merchants at the Eritrean and Kenyan coasts.
But the Thaler was not able to penetrate into the mainland. It remained a popular currency only along the East African Coast.
It was the Indian Rupee that emerged in the late 19th century, during the construction of the Kenya-Uganda railway, that gained wide acceptance across the region. The Indian Rupee was introduced as payment for the Indian workers building the railway line.
One year later in 1897 Harry Jackson, leader of the British East African Protectorate (BEAP), tried to introduce a new currency with the hope of superseding the Rupee. It was known as ‘Specie’ (or ‘Pice’).
The Specie did not become the success it was intended to be. In 1905 the Indian Rupee was made the official currency of the BEAP. It was produced in 1/2, 1, 5, 10, 20 and 50 Cent coin denominations. There were notes as well in denominations of 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100 and 500 Rupees.
But the Indian Rupee did not last long either. It was soon abolished after Kenya became a crown colony in 1920 when IBEA’s mandate was terminated.
A central body known as the East African Currency Board was then established to oversee the issuance of currency in the region. The body reported to the secretary of state for colonies under the advisory of the Bank of England.
The exit of the Indian Rupee paved way for the short stint of the East African Protectorate Rupee. The Rupee was to later be replaced by the East African Florins. In January 1, 1922 the shilling equivalent was introduced in all the three East African countries. By June 1923, the EA shilling was firmly established as official currency in Kenya, Uganda and the then Tanganyika.
In 1964, after the three East African nations had bagged their independence, there was talk of establishing a common East African Central Bank. The bank issued its first interim banknotes that used Lake Victoria as a background picture, hence their name, the Lake Victoria Money.
The Lake Victoria notes existed in denominations of 5, 10, 20 and 100 shillings. There were a few coins which were popularly known as ‘Uhuru’ coins. These initial regional currencies did not have a head or monarch printed on them.
With CBK’s blessings, the first Kenya shilling notes were issued. They bore the face of Kenya’s first president, Jomo Kenyatta and came in denominations of 5, 10, 20, 50 and 100 shillings. Since then there have been several changes as 2 more heads of state have come to power.
Current denominations of banknotes and coins in circulation include 50 cent, 1, 5, 10, 20, 40 shilling coins and 50, 100, 200, 500 and 1,000 shilling notes.
What a journey the Kenya shilling has taken! If anyone has samples of these currencies, I would love to hear from them. Just drop a message here and I will get back to you.

Varney: Biden is making inflation worse by closing pipelines, banning drilling
Biden acknowledged White House needs to tackle rising inflation urging Congress to pass his sweeping economic agenda
FOX Business' Stuart Varney, during his latest "My Take" on "Varney & Co.," argued President Biden is "not doing anything" about inflation and is making the issue "worse" by closing pipelines and banning drilling.
BIDEN SAYS WHITE HOUSE MUST TACKLE RISING INFLATION AS CONSUMER PRICES SURGE: 'MORE TO BE DONE'
STUART VARNEY: We’re not used to inflation, and we don’t like it.
There are some ominous signs we’re about to enter a period of fast rising prices just like the 1970s. It’s another parallel between Joe Biden today and Jimmy Carter 40 years ago. Back then gas prices symbolized inflation, same today. It’s when you pump gas that you come face-to-face with sharply rising prices.
President Biden is not doing anything about it. In fact, he’s making things worse.
Closing pipelines, banning drilling, and starving the oil patch for capital, does not bring prices down.
We should remember the lessons of the inflationary 1970s. Living standards declined, wage gains were wiped out, and America suffered from a bad case of national malaise!

But this president is locked into inflationary policies.
Biden and the Democrats should remember how the Carter years ended: a severe recession and the election of Ronald Reagan!


Rep. Scott Syme, R-Caldwell, has moved to approve the proposed new school science standards with two changes: Deleting one section, in which he said he objected to a single sentence regarding energy that he said he felt “led to conclusions;” and eliminating all sections of the standards that fall under the heading “supporting content.” The section covers renewable and non-renewable energy resources, including air pollution from burning of fossil fuels.
Rep. Lance Clow, R-Twin Falls, said he didn’t have a problem with the section Syme referenced, but supported the idea of removing all the “supporting content.” “My conclusion has been it’s not the standards that have been causing all the debate and the discussion. It’s when we get into the supporting content,” he said.
State schools Superintendent Sherri Ybarra said, “I believe the intent of the supporting content was a direction, but the schools can make it work. ... Schools will figure it out. The information will still be available. It doesn’t need to be a state mandate.” She added, “We can’t unring the bell - that information is out there and it is a local decision. If they call me up and ask for it, I’ll make it available. … It’s a public document, they can find it. We will offer many resources to help districts. They will make the standards work.”

The challenge of modernity is to live without illusions and without becoming disillusioned
But now everything will be different. It is nonsense to believe that life will not allow it, that the past will not allow it. I must struggle to live a better life, a far better life.
If I had my life to live over, I would perhaps have more actual troubles but I'd have fewer imaginary ones
If I'd take so many little things on my heartÖI'd live only for dog years..
If I had my life to live over, I would perhaps have more actual troubles but I'd have fewer imaginary ones.
I have learned to live each day as it comes, and not to borrow trouble by dreading tomorrow. It is the dark menace of the future that makes cowards of us.
Another fresh new year is here . . .
Another year to live!
To banish worry, doubt, and fear,
To love and laugh and give!
This bright new year is given me
To live each day with zest . . .
To daily grow and try to be
My highest and my best!
I have the opportunity
Once more to right some wrongs,
To pray for peace, to plant a tree,
And sing more joyful songs!î
The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, worry about the future, or anticipate troubles, but to live in the present moment wisely and earnestly
Don't worry about your heart, it will last you as long as you live
Promise yourself to live your life as a revolution and not just a process of evolution.
We live in a fast-paced society. Walking slows us down.
Too rarely do most of us focus on our real inner beauty and our inner strengths. Do you recall watching "boy meets girl" movies? As the boy and the girl struggled through thick and thin, you hoped and prayed the whole time that everything would work out. He went to war, she left home, he came back, she was gone, he found her, her brother told him to get lost, she told him to get lost, and all the time you hoped that they would live happily ever after.
One can survive everything, nowadays, except death, and live down everything except a good reputation.
We all live in the protection of certain cowardices which we call our principles.
If we take eternity to mean not infinite temporal duration but timelessness, then eternal life belongs to those who live in the present.
It is in moments of illness that we are compelled to recognize that we live not alone but chained to a creature of a different kingdom, whole worlds apart, who has no knowledge of us and by whom it is impossible to make ourselves understood: our body.
The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, nor to worry about the future, but to live the present moment wisely and earnestly.
We live in a world of transgressions and selfishness, and no pictures that represent us otherwise can be true, though, happily, for human nature, gleamings of that pure spirit in whose likeness man has been fashioned are to be seen, relieving its deformities, and mitigating if not excusing its crimes.
The greatest way to live with honor in this world is to be what we pretend to be.
Loving people live in a loving world. Hostile people live in a hostile world. Same world.
Go confidently in the direction of your dreams! Live the life you've imagined. As you simplify your life, the laws of the universe will be simpler.
People are always getting ready to live but never living.
Hanging onto resentment is letting someone you despise live rent-free in your head.
Be aware of wonder. Live a balanced life - learn some and think some and draw and paint and sing and dance and play and work every day some.
It is the nature of desire not to be satisfied, and most men live only for the gratification of it.

In software architecture, publish–subscribe is a messaging pattern where senders of messages, called publishers, do not program the messages to be sent directly to specific receivers, called subscribers, but instead characterize published messages into classes without knowledge of which subscribers, if any, there may be. Similarly, subscribers express interest in one or more classes and only receive messages that are of interest, without knowledge of which publishers, if any, there are.
This pattern provides greater network scalability and a more dynamic network topology, with a resulting decreased flexibility to modify the Publisher and its structure of the data published.
In the pub/sub model, subscribers typically receive only a subset of the total messages published. The process of selecting messages for reception and processing is called filtering. There are two common forms of filtering: topic-based and content-based.


BeetleJuice! Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! That's the name of the latest straight-from-Broadway musical to debut onboard a Norwegian Cruise Line ship. The show will headline the entertainment onboard Norwegian Viva when the second Prima-class ship debuts in August.
Travel partners and media were treated to a preview of the undead entertainment at an event in Manhattan on Wednesday night. Fresh from his appointment as the new president of Norwegian Cruise Line, David J. Herrera was introduced by Norwegian Bliss godfather Elvis Duran and co-host Medha Ghandi from "Elvis Duran and The Morning Show."
"We do all we can to bring these unique experiences via our entertainment," Herrera said. "Entertainment has become our calling card [at Norwegian]."
Herrera was joined by Richard Ambrose, Norwegian's senior vice president of entertainment and cruise programs, who recounted the call he received 18 years ago while living in New York City. "They wanted to know if I would come to work for them, and they told me they wanted Broadway."
"What's amazing about it is they knew what they wanted, and they literally put their money where their mouth is," Ambrose said. "The Norwegian Viva and sister ship Norwegian Prima is where you really see it. We have built the most amazing venue at sea, the Viva Theatre and Nightclub… We just keep on innovating more and more and our job is to deliver that guest experience to continue to wow them and exceed their expectations — and we do that ship after ship."
Ambrose was then interrupted by a man with wild green hair and a black-and-white pinstripe suit who proclaimed, "I've been dead a long time and I want to Viva! I really want to live it up," before he broke into song.
Norwegian Viva's production of "Beetlejuice" is being developed in part by the original designers and creative team for the show. Michelle D'Amico, a cast member of the Broadway production, will play Lydia (Winona Ryder) for the first at-sea rendition. The musical adaptation of Tim Burton's spooky-but-comedic 1988 film of the same name debuted on Broadway in 2019.
The 3,219-passenger Norwegian Viva will launch later this summer with signature NCL attractions like a top-deck Speedway racetrack, as well as nine new dining and beverage options. In addition to "Beetlejuice," Viva will offer a take on the classic game show experience "Press Your Luck LIVE" in its theater, as well as "Ocean Music Fest," a jam session that takes place after hours in the night club.
Joining sister ship Norwegian Prima, Viva boasts a high ratio of square footage per passenger. Viva will sail a variety of Mediterranean itineraries, including the Greek Isles, before repositioning to San Juan, Puerto Rico in December for a winter season of Caribbean sailings.

We hope you’re hungry. This week, phimosis we’ve got two movies that celebrate the fine art of dining on raw fish.
Before that, women’s health though, health system we do need to get a little serious. Each year 13 million kids are bullied at school, and in 2011 the envelope-pushing movie “Bully” set out to shed some light on this despicable phenomenon. We look at the movie, the controversy surrounding it and the newly packaged Blu-ray release with a host of special features.
Next up, when a diamond heist goes bad, one unlucky criminal takes the fall. Six years later, the whole gang is back together to figure out what happened to the diamonds. The centerpiece for their dinner party? A beautiful woman draped only in sushi. She’s “Sushi Girl,” and this is an intense new indie film with a killer cast and a great sense of character. We’ve got two of those characters on our show as well! We welcome James Duval and Andy Mackenzie to dish on how “Sushi Girl” came together and on how it was to work with a childhood hero, Mark Hamill.
We’re still hungry for more, though, and we’ll tell you all about “Dead Sushi,” a weird, hilarious, gory Japanese film about sushi that bites back.
Finally, we’ll take a look at “Jack & Diane,” a psycho-sexual drama about two young women in an intense but strained relationship. Riley Keough and Juno Temple star as the title characters – oh, and did we mention there’s a hideous monster created by Diane’s psyche? Yeah, there’s that too.
All that plus the week’s Honorable Mentions and much, much more![audio http://podcast.dvdgeeks.tv/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/dvdgeeks-2-28-13.mp3]

And it also supports moving from IOS to Android and Android to IOS.
The process is pretty straight forward, simply download the Samsung Smart Switch app on both the old device and the new device. Start the Samsung Smart Switch app up on both devices and select the type of OS, so either IOS for Apple Devices devices or Android for Android devices. and then tap the Start button.
Next you will need to set the old device to sending and the new device to Receiving. The two phones should hopefully see each other by now and automatically connect to one another.
Select the data that you want to move from your old phone to your new phone by leaving the check boxes ticked. If there is any data that you don’t want to copy to your new phone, simply remove the tick from the checkbox.
Once done you should be good to go. Just remember that the time it takes to copy data across depends on the speed of your phones and how much data you wish to transfer. For me it was about 4GB and that would take around 40 mins.

His mother and my grandfather are brother and sister, in a family where there are as many aunts, uncles, cousins, and siblings as trees in a forest. The two of them are separated by fifteen years, six siblings, and enough difference in upbringing that they would often talk about how they felt more like uncle and niece than brother and sister.
I think that their disparity in childhood is probably a lot of the reason why we felt it was okay to do at first, because it was barely even like they were siblings. But we know, and since we first kissed outside a bar just over a year ago on a night that was more about having shots and finding excuses to get close to each other than it was about welcoming him to Austin , we have been a couple.
We are lucky to live far enough away from our family they are almost all back on the east coast, we are here in Texas that we can be pretty free with who we are. But if we are being honest with ourselves, we know that we share the kind of history and family relationship that would make most people cringe at the idea of us being together. No one who knows that we are a couple know that we are from the same family. And although I often wish that I could confide in a close friend, I am simply not ready for the kinds of questions and judgment that would follow.
As I said before, the difference in age between his mother and my grandfather is enough that they are amongst the least close of all of their family, and I am much more familiar with a lot of my other cousins than I am with him. Hell, I even have friends from elementary school that I feel more of a kinship with because we were together for a lot of our important moments.
Nick a fake name, of course was only there for the big stuff. But I knew I loved him pretty young. I could tell him things, he listened to me, he knew who I was in a way that almost no one else did — even though we saw each other very rarely. By the time I kissed him that night I was 23 , it felt like the release of something I had been waiting for my whole life. I wanted him to be with me, and only me, because I had always felt like I had to share him — with my family, with the girlfriends who would ask if he was single because they knew I could never be with him, with my parents who would make us leave an event early and take me away from him.
For once, I had him all to myself, and I finally knew that he felt the same way about me that I did about him. I could be honest for the first time, even if it was only with him. Every day I look back on that night fondly, going from the computer to the bed trying to find out if the way we felt was okay, even though we knew that nothing we were going to find would change our minds.
On some level, we realized that day that we were going to need to tell our family members. But at least, at the time, it was something we could procrastinate on. We decided, out loud for the first time not too long ago, that we would accept the consequences if our family could not have us around anymore.
Nothing in the world makes me happier than the prospect of telling Nick, in front of anyone who is willing to watch us, that he is the love of my life. In many ways it feels unfair that we were burdened with the same blood, that we could have been just like any other couple around us who has the full support of everyone they love. And even if it costs me my family, it is a choice I am willing to make.

WEST OCEAN CITY- Multiple law enforcement agencies last week teamed up on the arrest of an alleged significant heroin dealer operating in Worcester and lower Delaware at a parking lot in West Ocean City.
Last week, the Worcester County Criminal Enforcement Team initiated a joint heroin distribution investigation with the Delaware State Police, the Sussex Drug Unit and the Ocean City Police Department. The investigation focused on Peter Paul DeMarie III, 35, of Selbyville, who was known by the Criminal Enforcement Team and the OCPD as an alleged major source of supply of heroin as well as cocaine and marijuana.
The investigation revealed DeMarie’s alleged criminal activity took him across state lines. Last Wednesday, the Criminal Enforcement Team located DeMarie at a business parking lot in West Ocean City and took him into custody. A search of DeMarie’s person turned up 751 individually wrapped bags of suspected heroin and $1,150 in currency.
As a result of the coordinated effort, the Delaware State Police and the Sussex Drug Unit obtained a search and seizure warrant for DeMarie’s residence in Selbyville. During the search, detectives located a Hi-Point .45-caliber semi-automatic handgun, 1,784 grams, or nearly four pounds, of marijuana, 194 grams of suspected cocaine, 950 individual bags of heroin, over 26 grams of methamphetamine, 82 individual oxycodone tablets, two ecstasy tablets, 36 individual Suboxone strips and over $16,000 in currency. DeMarie was charged with multiple CDS crimes in Maryland and charges are still pending in Delaware. He is being held in Worcester on a $250,000 bond.
Jail Sentence for Knife Attack
OCEAN CITY- A Pennsylvania man was arrested in July after allegedly threatening three other individuals with a knife before getting disarmed and locked on a balcony pleaded guilty last week to second-degree assault and was sentenced to six months in jail, all but one month of which was then suspended.
Around 2:24 a.m. on July 30, Ocean City Police responded to a condominium at 51st Street for a report of a man threatening a group of individuals with a knife. When an OCPD officer arrived and met with the three victims, he noticed the unit was in disarray with broken glass strewn across the floor and garbage dumped out and spread around the condo suggesting a struggle had taken place. One of the victims had a cut on her foot from the broken glass.
The injured victim told police the incident began as an argument between her and the suspect, identified as Douglas R. Groff, 37, of Ephrata, Pa., over vacation plans with other friends also in Ocean City. The victim wanted to meet with friends while Groff did not, according to police reports. During the argument, Groff told the victim he was taking her car to “blow off some steam” and eventually took the vehicle without her permission.
Groff and the three eventual victims in the alleged knife attack were at a nearby bar when the first victim got into another argument with the suspect. Groff then left the bar and went back to the rental unit on 51st Street. The three victims came back to the unit later, but Groff attempted to keep them from entering. The victims were able to get into the unit and another argument started between Groff and the first female victim.
Another male victim attempted to break up the altercation, at which time Groff allegedly went into the kitchen a got a fixed blade knife from a drawer. According to the victims, Groff then raised the knife as if he was going to stab someone. Two female victims tackled Groff to the floor and the male victim then stepped on his arm and removed the knife from Groff’s hand.
After the victims were able to disarm Groff, the suspect then went to the balcony. One of the female victims then went over and locked the sliding glass door, essentially locking Groff on the balcony. Groff allegedly attempted to get back into the unit, throwing a chair at the glass door. The OCPD officer noted in his report the sliding glass door had spider web cracks throughout it.
The victim then told Groff she was calling the police, at which point Groff climbed down from the third-floor balcony and fled across the beach. Groff later returned to the unit at 51st Street and was taken into custody. Last week, Groff pleaded guilty to second-degree assault and was sentenced to six months, all but one of which was then suspended. He was also fined $500 and placed on probation for two years upon his release.
Deputy Nearly Hit Head-On
STOCKTON- A Pocomoke woman was arrested on suspected drunk-driving charges on Tuesday after allegedly nearly hitting a Worcester County Sheriff’s Deputy’s car head-on on a rural road in Stockton.
Around 12:50 a.m. on Tuesday, a Worcester County Sheriff’s Deputy was traveling eastbound on Stockton Rd. when a 2001 Dodge Neon was observed heading westbound. The deputy observed the vehicle cross the center line on a curve and begin to travel westbound in the eastbound lane. The deputy had to take evasive action to avoid being hit head-on by the vehicle.
The deputy was able to initiate a traffic stop on the vehicle. The driver was identified as Teresa Lynn Space, 46, of Pocomoke. The deputy recognized Space allegedly had slurred speech, and bloodshot and glassy eyes. She was administered field sobriety tests, which she failed to complete to the officer’s satisfaction. Space was arrested and charged with driving under the influence and driving while impaired, reckless driving, negligent driving and failure to reduce speed on a curve.
Armed Robbers Sought
SALISBURY- Salisbury Police this week are seeking the public’s help in identifying the suspects wanted in connection with an assault on a convenience store clerk on Wednesday.
Around 4:15 a.m. on Wednesday, Salisbury Police responded to the 7-11 store on Springhill Rd. for a reported armed robbery. The investigation determined two suspects entered the store and assaulted the clerk with a brick and a large piece of wood. The suspects stole cigars before fleeing on foot. The clerk received minor injuries during the incident and did not require medical attention.
The first suspect is described as an African-American male wearing a white jacket and dark pants at the time of the incident. The second suspect is described as a African-American male wearing all dark clothing. Both suspects were wearing gloves and a shirt or similar article of clothing covering their faces. The Salisbury Police are seeking the public’s help in identifying the suspects. Anyone with information is urged to contact Salisbury Police at (410) 548-3165, or Crime Solvers at (410) 548-1776.
Hiding in Closet Again
OCEAN CITY- A Berlin woman wanted on outstanding warrants in Worcester County was taken into custody last week after Sheriff’s Deputies found her in a closet at a residence on 52nd Street in Ocean City, making it the second time she has been found hiding in closets from police.
Around 8 a.m. last Friday, Worcester County Sheriff’s Deputies responded to a residence on 52nd Street in Ocean City in attempt to locate Tristen Ann Vice, 29, of Berlin, who was wanted on two outstanding Worcester County Circuit Court warrants. After speaking with the homeowner, deputies determined Vice was located somewhere in the residence. Deputies searched the residence and found Vice hiding in a closet.
During a subsequent search, deputies hypodermic syringes and a glass pipe on Vice’s person and she was charged with possession of CDS and paraphernalia. She was taken before a District Court Commissioner, who released her on her own recognizance for the drug charges, but ordered her held without bail for the outstanding Circuit Court warrants.
Last Friday’s incident marked the second time Vice was found hiding in a closet by police. Last June 15, Worcester County Sheriff’s Deputies searched a residence on Assateague Rd. looking for Vice, who was wanted at that time on outstanding warrants. Again, Vice was found that time hiding in a closet and was taken into custody.
Nearly All Pass St. Pat’s Compliance Checks
OCEAN CITY- Worcester County liquor licensees were apparently on high alert during last weekend’s St. Patrick’s Day festivities as 35 passed compliance checks for underage drinking conducted by Worcester County Sheriff’s Office cadets and only one failed.
Last Saturday, in the midst of the St. Patrick’s Day hoopla, despite the cancellation of the parade, the Worcester County Sheriff’s Office conducted alcohol compliance checks at locations throughout the county. A total of 36 businesses were checked and only one sold to an underage person. The only business that sold to an underage cadet was Whiskers Bar and Grill in Ocean Pines. The Sheriff’s Office this week thanked the businesses for constantly working to keep alcohol out of the hands of minors.
Among those who passed the alcohol compliance checks last weekend were Raceway Citgo, Kaddy Mart, the West O Bottle Shop, Casey’s Corner, Locals Beer and Wine, Newark Station, Town Market Basket, the Duck In in Snow Hill, all of the 7-11 stores in Ocean City, the 7-11 in Ocean Pines, the 85th Street Wine Rack, the Montego Bay Supermarket, the Royal Farm Store on Coastal Highway, Shop Kwik, Cheers, Your Store, Pit Stop Beer and Wine, Friendship Food Market, Southside Deli, Assawoman Ale Shop, Late Nite Liquor and Wine, Don’s Seafood, Goose Creek, Duck In in Pocomoke, Pocomoke Beer and Wine, OC Dollar Store, Mitchell’s Market, Greenhouse Deli, Johnny’s Pizza, and the 64th Street Market.

I've gathered together some of my favorite off-duty images. An intimate look into life behind, the behind the scenes if you will :)
This series showcases what happens in between the shots you usually see.
29 exclusive images.
As usual, the only request I have is that you DO NOT share these images on the internet for everyone else to see! When fans support my work it makes it possible to shoot more and create more fantastic projects. Like downloading movies, or songs from an illegal site on the net, it makes it impossible for artists to keep producing work.

Audrina Patridge, star of The Hills, finally tied the knot with Corey Bohan. Their marriage took place in Hawaii, where they are now enjoying their honeymoon. The honeymoon wasn’t just experienced by the happy couple: they brought along their four-month old daughter. But what had heads turning was the fact that Patridge has already managed to achieve a hot bikini body post-baby.
So how exactly did Patridge get wedding and post-baby ready? We’re here to explain the reality star’s fitness routine.
Audrina Patridge Wedding and Post-Baby Fitness and Diet
Patridge has always loved Pilates, so to trim down in four months to prepare for her wedding, she kept that up. Patridge also partakes in boxing, cardio, and strength training exercises in order to keep herself looking fit.
Before having her daughter, Patridge would work out five to six times a week. So we’re wondering if, now that she’s a mother, she’ll still have the time to maintain such a schedule.
The secret to Patridge’s workouts is interval training, where she conducts short bursts of cardiovascular intensity layered with resistance training. This style of training really aids in creating body changes as it completely fatigues the muscles.
Furthermore, Patrdige’s workouts include bouts of what her trainer refers to as “Body Box.” Body Box is segments of shadow boxing followed by light weight training.
As for her diet, Patridge relies on the meal service The Sunfare Diet. The meals contain lean proteins, low GI carbs, and healthy fats in a ratio of 30:40:30. She intakes the recommended 1,200 calories a day.
Patridge has long been a lover of junk food, but once she began to realize the toll it took on her body, she cleaned up her diet right away. Now instead of her diet consisting of sugar and empty calories, it is packed with nutrient-dense foods, including lean proteins, fruits and vegetables, smoothies, and nuts.
Another secret of Patridge’s diet is small portion sizes. Even foods that may not be considered healthy or good can still be enjoyed by Patridge because she monitors her intake of them and consumes them in small amounts. This is a great way to curb cravings and be satisfied.
Another large part of Patridge’s health and fitness plan is relaxation. An exhausted body doesn’t look good, so Patridge takes the time to relax and restore her body to continue to look her best. Some of her secrets include aromatherapy baths and full body massages to promote relaxation and boost circulation.
Although it has only been four months since Audrina Patridge gave birth to her first child, she already looked amazing on her wedding day to longtime boyfriend and BMX rider Corey Bohan. Patridge will undoubtedly get her abs once again if she sticks with her healthy lifestyle.

Buddhism Explainedby Laurence-Khantiparo Mills
This book is eminently readable, which, alas, is by no means always true of books dealing with so broad and deep a subject in so small a compass. Often the need for brevity and simplicity results in summaries that are little more than lists of subject headings with a few short notes on each. Phra Khantipalo has avoided this pitfall so skilfully that a good part of the work could be read with pleasure even by people not especially interested in Buddhism.
The book should make a powerful appeal to two kinds of person. First, those largely ignorant of Buddhism who are sincerely eager to repair that ignorance will find in it exactly what they need. It admirably fulfills the oft-heard request: 'Look here, I do wish you could recommend a book which explains Buddhism in a way that everyone can understand, something comprehensive but not too long.' Second, a good many people with a fairly extensive knowledge of Buddhism would be happy to have such a work on their bookshelves, because it provides a complete summary of all the essentials of Buddhist teaching and practice, and can be used as a handy reference book for materials that usually have to be hunted out from more than one source. Do you, for example, want to know something about meditation methods, the daily life of Buddhist monks, the meaning of profound concepts such as Nirvana? These are three essentially different matters, but all are dealt with adequately in this one compact volume. Moreover, if you happened to be ignorant of Thai, Pali and Sanskrit and dislike reading works studded with foreign terms, you will be delighted to find that Laurence-Khantipalo Mills has reduced these terms to the barest minimum and given clear explanations of the few that cannot be avoided.

2022 Teens Dream - Good Health and Well Being
January 23, 2023
|By Rodiat Muhammed
The nervous system is the most complex and highly organized body system. It encompasses the brain, spinal cord and multiple neurons. A damage to one or more parts of the nervous system causes deviation from the normal functioning of the affected areas which can be lethal.
As an aspiring neurosurgeon, my dream is to help reduce and if possible prevent further occurrences of these disorders, procure solutions to those ones that proved incurable and help save the lives of patients encountering this challenge. This will help contribute to the growth, development and well-being of the people as indicated by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 3.
The UN SDG my dream most relates to


Are you fed up with the constant racket that echoes through your home every time you open or close your garage door?. Noise reduction for your garage door is not just about comfort – it can also help prolong the lifespan of your door and prevent costly maintenance issues in the future.
From investing in a silent garage door opener to adding acoustic seals and soundproofing materials, there are plenty of solutions available to help you achieve a quieter home. Let’s delve into some practical tips for reducing garage door noise, such as installing a silent garage door opener, acoustic seals, vibration isolators, soundproofing, and quiet roller doors.
Silent Garage Door Opener: A Game Changer
In today’s noisy world, the silent operation of a garage door opener has become a crucial element for homeowners seeking convenience, peace, and added value to their property. It is essential to consider factors such as lubrication maintenance, noise-dampening insulation, and door silencer kits when selecting the right solution for your garage.
By implementing soundproofing options and using anti-vibration pads, you can further enhance the quietness of your garage door opener.
Following these maintenance tips and investing in a quiet kit will ensure that your garage remains a serene and efficient space for years to come
How Do Acoustic Seals Work?
Creating a peaceful and quiet environment is essential when it comes to soundproofing a room or building. Acoustic seals are a key component in achieving this goal by effectively reducing noise levels.
These specially designed seals work by blocking sound waves and vibrations from passing through gaps in doors or windows.
Using materials such as sound-absorbing panels and heavy-duty hinges, acoustic seals create a barrier that minimizes sound transmission.
Proper installation and regular maintenance are crucial in maximizing the effectiveness of these seals in soundproofing a room.

The Role of Vibration Isolators in Quieting Your Garage
Creating a tranquil and serene atmosphere in your garage is a priority for many homeowners. One method to achieve this is through the use of vibration isolators, which are essential in dampening noise levels by absorbing and reducing vibrations.
These isolators come in a variety of forms, such as rubber weather stripping, that not only seal gaps effectively but also assist in minimizing sound.
The installation of these isolators is straightforward, and routine maintenance can guarantee prolonged noise reduction.
Incorporating torsion spring adjustment into your garage door mechanism is another crucial aspect that contributes to a quieter operation. By integrating noise-canceling technology and employing decibel reduction strategies, homeowners can relish in the luxury of having whisper-quiet doors.
In essence, the utilization of vibration isolators is an effective and practical solution for silencing your garage.
Soundproofing Strategies for a Peaceful Home
Living in a bustling environment can greatly impact your daily life, disrupting your rest, focus, and overall peace. It is essential to identify the various sources of noise in your living space to pave the way for a serene and quiet home.
From dealing with noisy neighbors to the hum of appliances and the chatter of pets, recognizing these sources is key to implementing effective sound-dampening strategies.
Incorporating simple do-it-yourself solutions like soundproof curtains or weatherstripping can noticeably reduce noise levels.
Upgrading to specialized soundproofing materials such as acoustic foam or sound barrier sheets can further enhance the tranquility of your living environment.
For those in search of a more professional touch, soundproofing services offer specialized expertise in creating a silent sanctuary. Whether it’s the installation of muffler doors for smooth track operation or the application of sound barrier sheets and acoustic foam for silent glide rollers, we guarantee a noise-free environment.
Lubrication Maintenance: Keeping the Noise Down
In order to maintain the smooth and efficient performance of your garage door system, it is crucial to regularly lubricate the moving components. This often neglected maintenance task can have a significant impact on reducing friction and minimizing wear and tear, ultimately prolonging the lifespan of your garage door.
By following a detailed guide on how to properly lubricate the various parts of your garage door, you can ensure quieter operation and improved efficiency.
Incorporating noise-reducing techniques such as soundproof weather seals and soft-close hinges can further enhance the overall quietness of your garage door system
Why Choose Noisedampening Insulation?
Enhance your home’s tranquility with effective sound reduction solutions like foam insulation. When seeking peace and quiet, it’s essential to understand how these innovative materials work.
