The Light Fantastic

Review:CaptainD

Discworld is a place of magic. As such, there are magical people, like Wizards, floating around. Rincewind is a wizard - he just happens to be amazingly bad at it. There are 8 great spells (8 is the magic number on Discworld) and one of them got into his head by mistake. Now, no other spells will dare get into his head because they're too frightened of the Great Spell. Twoflower is a tourist from the Counterweight Continent, and sports all sorts of strange devices. His most interesting item is the Luggage, which is made out of a magical wood call Sapient Pearwood. It has lots of little legs, a mind of its own, and things disappear inside it never to be seen again. But, if need be, it can somehow take your laundry and clean it for you, or produce certain items out of nowhere... At the end of the first book in the Discworld series, The Colour of Magic, Rincewind is hanging off the edge of the world (it's a disc, so of course it's flat), and Death's understudy is trying to convince him to die. But Wizards have a special privilege - they can only be taken by Death himself. Twoflower and the Luggage are... somewhere around. And so begins The Light Fantastic. (So named because that's what you can see if you're hanging over the edge of the world). Rincewind somehow survives, and further survives many things which should mean his instant death. Much to his dismay, he is joined in his quest by Twoflower and the Luggage. But after a while he begins to realise something - that he's constantly being saved from the jaws of death because the Great Spell wants to keep him alive. And the reason for this, Rincewind reasons, cannot be good. In fact it would mean the end of the world. Oh, and could it be that the great A'Tuin, the turtle carrying Discworld on its back) is changing course? (Just to complicate matters even further...) There are some lovely characters in this second novel in the Discworld saga, notably Cohen, the aged barbarian with no teeth, and Bethan, his reluctant damsel in distress.

(They completely ruined her sacrifice - that is, the sacrifice of her - but when she's been rescued by this ancient hero with a zimmerframe and no teeth, she does her very best to be the good damsel in distress and fall in love with him). Rincewind and Twoflower are a much funnier combination than for most of the first book, and the peripheral characters are fine, though perhaps not quite as well-developed as in the later novels. The story runs well, is nicely plotted (although again, not quite as well paced as in some of the later books of the series - Pratchett seems to improve all the time - if he improves any more than he is at present, his books may end up with a public health warning on them for inducing similar effects to narcotics...), and the characters, as already mentioned, are terrific. I am pleased to say that Death (my favourite character) is back and funnier than ever. I really enjoyed this book, second in the series but about eight in the order I read it. In addition to the plot mentioned earlier, there is also a battle among the wizards, one of whom is trying to upset the balance of power... and then there is the danger of the creatures from the dreaded Dungeon Dimensions... There are also more glimpses of the biting satire that epitomises the whole series. Overall, this should definitely be in the collection of anyone who likes Pratchett's novels, or a bit of light-hearted fantasy, or just good comedy writing. Thanks for reading, CaptainD (NB - this review was first published on Epinions.)

Broken iron check

new iron

These days, my wife saw frequently used iron can not be used again. the indicator lamp does not light, no heat generated, by using a screwdriver and current test I started to open the iron parts. and began to check the wiring, and other parts. I think there is damage to the heating element, and it turns out after the replacement of the heating element can not function. I started thinking to replace with a new one, then I think because the indicator light does not light there must be a problem with the wiring and electrical currents. This is exactly right,  after I check carefully it turns out there are sections of cable burned and broken. I have to repair wiring and install all iron parts in the original position, and the iron back to work.
we must be frugal and take advantage of household items that can still be used . not only financial problems , but the saving behavior and good habits to maintain and repair the household appliances can be utilized .

Five Important Principles of Interior Design Chicago

 

Review:impactdesignfirm

For interior design Chicago, the process can be broken down into some principles, which are not strict rules but the guidelines to be followed for interior design . Whether you have to work with existing furniture and furnishings or start from scratch, these principles should be followed in choosing everything. The principles relate to how to use different design elements such as paint, furniture, accessories etc.

1. Balance – Balance in the interiors means visual equilibrium. It means all the objects should be placed according to their size and color etc. maintaining a balance. Also, the elements should be distributed throughout the room. It should not seem that there are many elements on one corner and only a few elements on other corners.

2. Focal Point – In every room, there should be one or two focal points so as to attract the attention of visitors. Otherwise, the room will look boring. Also ensure that the focal point should look as a part of the whole decoration and not something unmatched and totally distinct.

3. Harmony – While doing interior design, consider creating a harmony throughout the home. When someone visits different rooms, each room should look as a part of the unified whole. A rhythm should be created in the design by repeating lines, colors and texture etc.

4. Color – Color inspires emotions in people. Different colors influence the people in a different way. Colors have a definite effect on the atmosphere, and thus any type of atmosphere can be created by using right color schemes.

5. Detail – While doing interior design, there is a need to give attention to each and every detail. Everything starting from lamp shade to light switches to cupboard handles require attention. Many people find boring to select these things, but these things when selected carefully bring really good results.

These are the important principles of interior design in Chicago which should be followed as guidelines for designing home interiors.
