Sash Windows - Some Information for UK Buyers
If you're a UK homeowner, chances are you have sash windows in your residence. These are the most common type of windows and come in a variety of styles and sizes. Here's some information about the sash window that you might find interesting and instructive.
What is a Sash Window?
A sash window consists of 2 wooden frames mounted in a vertical frame that contains 2 tracks. The frames, also known as sashes, hold 1 or 2 panes of glass. The sashes slide up or down in the tracks so the window can be opened or closed. In older types of window sashes, weights suspended by ropes or cords facilitate the window's operation. When there are 2 panes of glass in a sash, it's known as a double glazed sash window. Alternatively, there can be multiple panes of glass, also called lights, in a sash. These are held in place by narrow strips called muntin bars.
What are Some Characteristics of a Sash Window?
Since replacing sash windows can cost upwards of £600 each, it's important to know what to look for when considering them. In wood sash windows, the muntin bars are removable. This gives the homeowner some versatility in the window's look. In addition, removable muntin bars facilitate cleaning. Since most contemporary sliding sash windows no longer use ropes and weights, modern designs allow the sashes to be completely removed from the frame. New sash windows may also have a convenient tilt mechanism, so that the outdoor portion of the window can be cleaned from the inside. Although many types of sash replacement windows are made from wood, others are aluminum clad on the outside. Aluminum clad windows come in a variety of colors to compliment your home and never need painting or maintenance of any kind. This makes them very popular with homeowners. In addition, bespoke sash windows are widely available, meaning that custom-made shapes and sizes can be created for even the most unique window openings, such as octagonal, etc. One UK window manufacturer advertises "11, 000 different patterns and styles, with over 4, 000 standard shapes and sizes, " so it's clear that sash windows are incredibly versatile.
What to Expect from a Sash Window Contractor
Many companies who are installing and replacing sash windows in the UK are also the manufacturers. This makes the installation or replacement process seamless. A good contractor will offer competitive pricing and will work within your established budget. The process begins with a site survey and consultation. Next comes the technical design and manufacture of the replacement sash windows. Finally, the windows are fitted and installed. Since most windows carry a hefty warranty (10 to 20 years), it's important to select a well-established contractor who will be available to make repairs (if needed under the warranty) well into the future.
Sash windows are an important component of many UK homes. Doesn't it make sense to shop as carefully for the contractor as you do the windows?

i think my dad might watch porn?
when i wake up in the morning i walk out into the living room and see my dad, and i also find him on the computer. except usually, he looks at the news on google news. as soon as i walk in the room, my dad closes the window to the site he is on. i didn't think it was porn, until today. i woke up and walked into the living room this morning and my dad didn't know i was there. on the screen i saw a video of a woman fingering her p**sy and a guy waving around his d*ck. when i walked over to my dad, he closed the window. i asked him what he was watching in a suspicious and somewhat angry way. he said that it was just a site pop up that he tried to get out of. i believed him, but i still had a doubt. so later, i checked the history on the computer and looked for the page he was on at the exact time i walked into the room. i didn't find any signs of porn whatsoever. but, on days before this, ive seen him on sites that he quickly closes out of. but i can't get a good glance at the page. my dad in 64 and my mom is 55. they definitely don't have sex anymore.is this normal???

Title of this book I read in elementary school?
I'm pretty sure it was elementary school, at least. The book took place in Romania, and I'm pretty sure it was the 80s. The book ends with the spurs of Revolution, I think. The narrator is a girl and she had gotten a red scarf as a present, I think. The scarf was very important in the book, and at the end she gives it away to a boy (or young man, whatever) who has a head injury, to help stop the bleeding. I think her family stood in bread lines, and at one point she is eating M & Ms that she had gotten from a friend, who was a boy, whose father worked for...secret police or something, which is why who could get that. Her mother was concerned when she saw her eating them because she said they could only get chocolate off the Black Market. I believe there was an epilogue talking about how, although improved, Romania was still facing some problems.
Also there's another book, but I don't think anyone can find it because I only remember the cover, some characteristics, but not the plot at all. The cover was a girl in a navy uniform sitting down at a chessboard on an island. You could only see her upper torso to her head, and her back was to the cover. The protagonist was a adventurous tomboy I think...? They went to an island...there were rocks...somebody might have gotten murdered...I think someone fell out of a window...I have no idea what happened, but I'm pretty sure it had a word along the lines of "game" or something similar in the title.
If anyone has happened to read these, I'd love to know the titles, thanks!
The scarf might've been scarlet
