Kid's Birthday Party

By Jim Sheng
Parents hire kid's play center to celebrate their kid's birthday party instead of inviting other children to their own house. This is really a good idea. A lot of kid's activity venues in Derby.

The first invitation from Abi, she celebrated her birthday party in MacDonald. Parents left their children there and picked them up after party two hours later. I didn't know this, so I am the only one who stayed there drinking hot chocolate after coffee.

The next from Mason. He celebrated his birthday in Tubby Bear’s Play Den at Great Northern Road. It's an indoor soft play centre specially for children. Children have to wear socks to play, although if you forget they even have socks you can borrow! Brenda didn't want to wear socks as usual, and she fell over and hurt her knees at the bus stop. She felt miserable, and took long time to cheer herself up. She was caught barefeet on the slides when it was nearly the end of party, though. This is quite large place suitable for adult relaxing. Most of parents stayed, so did we.

There is another birthday party for James on the way, which will be held in Hickory Dickory's children's playhouse at Unit C Kingsway Industrial Park. We hope Brenda will enjoy it as much as before.

coat-of-arms

By Jim Sheng
Heraldry probably began with the knights in armour. When wearing a helmet in battle or in tournaments a knight could not be recognised; so he used symbols to decorate his shield and surcoat. The surcoat was the loose garment worn over the armour to protect it from rain or hot sun and actually was the "coat-of-arms"; it was decorated on the front and back with the same device as on the shield. The correct expression for entire design is an achievement . An achievement consists of the shield, helmet, rest, wreath, mantling and motto. These are the main parts. To them can be added supporters and a compartment. In the centre is the most important part, the shield . The surface of the shield is called the field  and on it the colourful charges are placed. The shield is called the arms or coat-of-arms  and can be drawn in any shape - in an upright position or slanting, which is the position it would fall into if hung on a peg. In Heraldry it slants to dexter. The helmet denot...

You can find your Wireless Network Key on Virgin Media Wireless Router

By Jim Sheng
We have a new netbook computer, and don't know where to find network key, which is needed to setup wireless connection. A network key may also be called WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) key or WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) key. A wireless network key is a security feature that prevents unauthorized users from accessing a wireless network. An unprotected network is an unlocked virtual door, anybody within range can piggyback on the network undetected. I use Virgin media broadband with a Virgin media wireless router, this router has a WPA key taped on the router, that WPA key is an English word consisting of 10 letters. To tape network key on the router is a good idea, because we may never lose or forget a wireless network key as long as we possess the router.
