So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Stay Cool! Apply Window Tinting To Your Car

By Jack Brolin

There's nothing worse than getting into your truck or car after it has been baking in the hot sun while you have been shopping in a nice cool mall. You get into it and the heat literally envelopes you and you can't even touch the steering wheel. Do you know that window tinting can make a huge difference?

Okay, so you have air conditioning in your vehicle. But even so, tinting can help your car's air con work more efficiently because the temperature inside will be notably reduced. Window tinting works by preventing a large amount of the sun's harmful UV rays from penetrating through your car's windows.

Before going ahead with tinting, get clarification that your county or city permits window tinting. If so, find out what percentage of darkness is allowed. The tinting of windows is not permitted in certain countries. In the USA, a private vehicle is permitted to have a 20% tint, while vehicles used for commercial purposes are allowed a 30% tint.

There are many other reasons why tinted windows are so popular. Tinted windows allow improved visibility for the driver by eliminating glare. And of course lots of youngsters think that tinted windows make their cars look 'cool'.

Many people have their car windows tinted to deter potential criminals. Would-be robbers or hi-jackers will not going to be too brave if they can't see the number of people traveling in the vehicle. But the most practical reason for tinting is to keep vehicles cooler.

The material used in window tinting contains an agent that binds the glass particles together, making each window shatterproof. This offers further protection against criminals because they will be unable to break through the glass. If you are involved in a collision, you will be less likely to sustain injuries because of the shatterproof glass.

During the tinting process, a thin film of translucent, waterproof plastic is applied to each window. Many home-owners are tinting certain windows in their homes. Tinted windows offer good insulation and will keep your home much cooler.

Tinted windows can also deflect the sun so that in summer a lot less heat will enter your home through the windows. In cold weather, a tinted window will absorb the sun's rays so that your home will be significantly warmer in winter. Windows in your home where expensive items and furniture are often subjected to sunlight should be tinted.
