Entry from: Agra, India Entry Title: “Taj Mahal” Entry: “A chilly dawn start saw us strolling through the Babur Gardens towards the Tah Mahal with our guide Sharma, passing monkeys, street dogs and joggers. There was already a queue, one side for women and the other for guys and a strict security system prevailed. Like Fatehpur Sikri and the Red Fort, the Taj is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site and India ain’t taking any chances with its most precious icon. As we waited, disappointed crowd members were being turfed out for carrying video equipment, food and even newspapers. A gaggle of tiny, bird-like women in colourful saris chatted excitedly, pushing and poking me as if it would get them in faster. It didn’t. I got chatting to Elizabeth from the US. After finishing a PhD in International Development, she was off to work on a project developing Gujarat’s slums. Felt slightly envious of her worthy career choices. But then… I got to work on music mags and interview Nirvana in my day – would I have given that up? No way. Built by Shah Jahan in memory of his wife Mumtaz (who died in childbirth after delivering her 14th), it took 20000 workers 22 years to build this sublime marble mausoleum. Sadly the Shah didn’t have too long to enjoy it and was imprisoned by his son for being too extravagant with

Entry from: Agra, India Entry Title: “Delhi to Agra” Entry: “7-12: I went back to Jama Masjid and it was well worth the double effort. I wouldn’t consider it to be the most beautiful mosque I’ve seen but it certainly is the largest. Apparently it can hold 25000 people. It has a huge courtyard with a “pool” in the middle where people can wash up. I then went to Connaught Place which has a round park in the middle surrounded by a roundabout (one can definitely see the British influence with the roundabouts, driving on the opposite side of the street, and the metro signs are almost identical to the London underground signs) and streets stemming out from the park with high end shopping and restaurants. You can find a Levi’s store, a Nike store, McDonalds, KFC, etc. I found a cheap Indian restaurant and started talking with this guy. He was born in India, raised in Seattle, educated in London, and now hopes to open hotels in India. We sat in the park for awhile and met later on for drinks at his friend’s club. He’s leaving for Kashmir Tuesday for a couple weeks and I may change my plans a bit to meet him up there for some hiking in the Himilayas. 7-13: Today I went to Lodi Garden, a large, beautiful park very well landscaped to relax, read and take a nice pleasant stroll. 7-14: Today I left for Agra

Question by DrShio: How does one use the inlay dots around a pool table?
Around every pool table I’ve played on there are marble dots inlaid into the wood. Do these serve more than a cosmetic purpose? Is there any way to use these to line up a shot or an angle?

Best answer:

Answer by laughter_every_day
The dots or diamonds are geometric. Without english, a ball will leave the rail at the same angle as it impacts the rail. Try it a few times. They don’t help with a single rail bank shot, but are perfect for 2-3 rail shots.

Question by Irony Of Poe: How do I make a tile inlay in a wood tabletop without damaging the wood around it?
I am making two end tables. For the top, I want to have a wood border with tile on the inside. How do I apply the grout between the tile and the wood without ruining the wood? Will finishing the wood first protect it from the grout? Won’t the wet grout damage the wood, even if it is only on there for a little bit?
Also, the base of the top was going to be plywood. Is there a better substitute to put the tile on other than plywood?

Best answer:

Answer by Rusty Nail
Build your exterior frame and put a piece of plywood under it at the proper depth so the tile will be even with the surface. Sand finish and seal all of the wood surfaces. You don’t want any moisture being absorbed by the wood. Now lay and grout your tile. Try not to scratch the wood surface. Apply another coat of finish to the wood after everything else is finished…Best of luck.
