Sliding door

The film Sliding Doors by Peter Howitt guides the audience through the two parallel universes of Helen’s life. The film starts with Helen racing to make a train after just being fired. In one storyline we see Helen get stuck behind a little girl for just long enough to miss her train, and she is late getting home. In the other storyline, we see her make the train and get home on time. As the story unfolds, we see sliding doors used in many other ways as a way of foreshadowing when an important event is about to take place. In the end, sliding doors are used to bring both stories back together showing what was meant to be all along. As Helen runs to the sliding train doors, a little girl playing with a toy steps ahead of her. She runs around the girl losing a bit too much time, and reaches the doors just as they…

In the other, she catches her train, meets James (John Hannah) then…

When the time comes for Long Island homeowners to replace outdated or poorly performing exterior doors, there are several options. The two most common door styles seen adjacent to patios, decks and side-entrances are the Double Door and Standard Patio Door. In the replacement window and patio door industry, and here at Renewal by Andersen, we refer to these door styles as Hinged-French Style Patio Doors and Sliding Patio Doors. Both allow easy entrance and exit, but there are some distinct…

Newton’s third law of physics state that “For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.” This can be applied to the universal concept of change and indicates that all choices have rippling effects in life, which shape the consequences of change we experience, be it positive or negative. Ideas of these consequences vary as every individual’s experience throughout their life depends entirely upon their reaction, resulting from the context. Peter Goldsworthy’s novel Maestro expresses…

Clunk, The sound of the deadbolt sliding into place, securing me in the house. Or so I thought. My mom got in the car and drove away, to return at 9 o’clock that night. I spent about an hour just sitting around, checking my phone, and wasting time. I thought about cleaning my “biohazard of a messy room” but I decided against it. I then realized that I wanted to go on a bike ride, but before that, I would need to do a load of laundry. I put it in the clothes, turned the machine on, and left it…

The small hall we found ourselves in was empty except for mops, brooms and other cleaning equipment. We checked the other doors. They led to utility closets and a commercial laundry room. At the end of the hall was the door Alistair had brought us through. It was risky to try it, but there didn’t seem to be any other way out. Hawking went first, cracking the door and cautiously poking his head out. He motioned to me, and we crept into the grand picture galley I vaguely remembered passing…

During the day children were not accounted for no head counts were performed several times throughout the day it was asked where is this child staff was not always aware of who was where. When we broke into groups for snack kids went where ever they wanted so staff was unable to keep an…
