The invention relates to graphics applications and in particular to laying out items in two-dimensional space, three-dimensional space, and n-dimensional space along a one-manifold path embedded within a container.
In graphics applications, a user needs to be able to see and lay out visual items in a deterministic fashion, very often as an ordered list of items. In some graphics applications, two-dimensional items are automatically laid out based on a layout policy. Typically, items are placed sequentially within a two-dimensional (usually rectangular) container in a left-to-right, right-to-left, top-to-bottom or bottom-to-right pattern. Typical layout policies include flow layout, in which objects (usually rectangular) are placed in a rectangular window from left to right, dock panels, in which objects are laid out vertically and grid layout in which objects are laid out in tabular fashion, the "grid" consisting of cells that are arranged in rows and columns.
When placing objects in three- or higher-dimensional containers, there are fewer preconceptions about how objects "should be" laid out and there are also fewer constraints. There is a need in the art to provide a more flexible way to lay out visual items not only in two-dimensional space but also in three- or higher-dimensional space.
A mechanism is provided for laying out visual items in two-, three- or n-dimensional space along an embedded one-manifold or path. A one-manifold may be continuous, discontinuous, be contained entirely within a container or may extend beyond a container. The one-manifold may be defined by a set of parameters defining a function, formula or set of points. The container may be a two-dimensional, three-dimensional, or n-dimensional container.
Such a mechanism may be employed by a graphics application and may determine the location or positioning of an object or item. The object or item may be one of a set of objects or items. In response to receiving a set of parameters defining a one-manifold, the one-manifold may be embedded within a container. In response to receiving a set of parameters describing aspects of the object or item to be placed within the container, a set of x and y or x, y and z, etc. co-ordinates may be generated, which may be sent to a standard graphics interface for display.
The foregoing summary, as well as the following detailed description of illustrative embodiments, is better understood when read in conjunction with the appended drawings. For the purpose of illustrating the invention, there is shown in the drawings exemplary constructions of the invention; however, the invention is not limited to the specific methods and instrumentalities disclosed. In the drawings:
The simplest way to arrange items within a container or upon a canvas is to specify the position and orientation of each item. Such a fixed layout scheme is not very useful however, when changes occur. For example, to insert a new item upon an existing canvas using such a scheme, a programmer must specify the placement of the new item. If there is insufficient "visual space" for that item in the desired location, the programmer must re-arrange the original items to make room for the new one.
Similarly, if the shape or size of the canvas changes, all the items may no longer be able to be displayed. If all the items must continue to remain visible, code that rearranges the placement of the items must be provided. If the container does not have enough room to display all the items, the layout may show only some of the items. A scroll bar may enable a user to choose which of the items are visible.
The introduction of a third dimension (or more) changes how items are placed within a container.
Exemplary Computing Environment
Although not required, the invention can be implemented via an application programming interface (API), for use by a developer, and/or included within the network browsing software which will be described in the general context of computer-executable instructions, such as program modules, being executed by one or more computers, such as client workstations, servers, or other devices. Generally, program modules include routines, programs, objects, components, data structures and the like that perform particular tasks or implement particular abstract data types. Typically, the functionality of the program modules may be combined or distributed as desired in various embodiments. Moreover, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the invention may be practiced with other computer system configurations. Other well known computing systems, environments, and/or configurations that may be suitable for use with the invention include, but are not limited to, personal computers (PCs), automated teller machines, server computers, hand-held or laptop devices, multi-processor systems, microprocessor-based systems, programmable consumer electronics, network PCs, minicomputers, mainframe computers, and the like. The invention may also be practiced in distributed computing environments where tasks are performed by remote processing devices that are linked through a communications network or other data transmission medium. In a distributed computing environment, program modules may be located in both local and remote computer storage media including memory storage devices.
With reference to
Computer 110 typically includes a variety of computer readable media. Computer readable media can be any available media that can be accessed by computer 110 and includes both volatile and nonvolatile media, removable and non-removable media. By way of example, and not limitation, computer readable media may comprise computer storage media and communication media. Computer storage media includes both volatile and nonvolatile, removable and non-removable media implemented in any method or technology for storage of information such as computer readable instructions, data structures, program modules or other data. Computer storage media includes, but is not limited to, RAM, ROM, EEPROM, flash memory or other memory technology, CDROM, digital versatile disks (DVD) or other optical disk storage, magnetic cassettes, magnetic tape, magnetic disk storage or other magnetic storage devices, or any other medium which can be used to store the desired information and which can be accessed by computer 110. Communication media typically embodies computer readable instructions, data structures, program modules or other data in a modulated data signal such as a carrier wave or other transport mechanism and includes any information delivery media. The term "modulated data signal" means a signal that has one or more of its characteristics set or changed in such a manner as to encode information in the signal. By way of example, and not limitation, communication media includes wired media such as a wired network or direct-wired connection, and wireless media such as acoustic, RF, infrared, and other wireless media. Combinations of any of the above should also be included within the scope of computer readable media.
The system memory 130 includes computer storage media in the form of volatile and/or nonvolatile memory such as read only memory (ROM) 131 and random access memory (RAM) 132. A basic input/output system 133 (BIOS), containing the basic routines that help to transfer information between elements within computer 110, such as during start-up, is typically stored in ROM 131. RAM 132 typically contains data and/or program modules that are immediately accessible to and/or presently being operated on by processing unit 120. By way of example, and not limitation,
The computer 110 may also include other removable/non-removable, volatile/nonvolatile computer storage media. By way of example only,
The drives and their associated computer storage media discussed above and illustrated in
A monitor 191 or other type of display device is also connected to the system bus 121 via an interface, such as a video interface 190. A graphics interface 182, such as Northbridge, may also be connected to the system bus 121. Northbridge is a chipset that communicates with the CPU, or host processing unit 120, and assumes responsibility for accelerated graphics port (AGP) communications. One or more graphics processing units (GPUs) 184 may communicate with graphics interface 182. In this regard, GPUs 184 generally include on-chip memory storage, such as register storage and GPUs 184 communicate with a video memory 186. GPUs 184, however, are but one example of a coprocessor and thus a variety of coprocessing devices may be included in computer 110. A monitor 191 or other type of display device is also connected to the system bus 121 via an interface, such as a video interface 190, which may in turn communicate with video memory 186. In addition to monitor 191, computers may also include other peripheral output devices such as speakers 197 and printer 196, which may be connected through an output peripheral interface 195.
The computer 110 may operate in a networked environment using logical connections to one or more remote computers, such as a remote computer 180. The remote computer 180 may be a personal computer, a server, a router, a network PC, a peer device or other common network node, and typically includes many or all of the elements described above relative to the computer 110, although only a memory storage device 181 has been illustrated in
When used in a LAN networking environment, the computer 110 is connected to the LAN 171 through a network interface or adapter 170. When used in a WAN networking environment, the computer 110 typically includes a modem 172 or other means for establishing communications over the WAN 173, such as the Internet. The modem 172, which may be internal or external, may be connected to the system bus 121 via the user input interface 160, or other appropriate mechanism. In a networked environment, program modules depicted relative to the computer 110, or portions thereof, may be stored in the remote memory storage device. By way of example, and not limitation,
One of ordinary skill in the art can appreciate that a computer 110 or other client device can be deployed as part of a computer network. In this regard, the present invention pertains to any computer system having any number of memory or storage units, and any number of applications and processes occurring across any number of storage units or volumes. The present invention may apply to an environment with server computers and client computers deployed in a network environment, having remote or local storage. The present invention may also apply to a standalone computing device, having programming language functionality, interpretation and execution capabilities.
Automatic Layout of Items Using a One-Manifold Path
When placing items within a two-dimensional, three-dimensional, or n-dimensional container, in some embodiments of the invention, a first-object-first/last-object-last paradigm is employed. In accordance with some embodiments of the invention, a first-object-first/last-object-last paradigm may place objects along any path, (e.g., along any one-manifold or one-dimensional path or line) embedded within the space, hence providing such a path enables a general means for mapping the objects using the first-object-first/last-object-last paradigm into the space. The one-manifold or path may be open, (that is, may begin and end at different points within the space), or closed (begin and end at the same point within the space), continuous or discontinuous, curved, straight or segmented (piece-wise smooth). The one-manifold may be polynomial-based or non-polynomial-based and can be of any length. The one-manifold may extend beyond the container in which it is embedded or may be confined within it embedding container.
It will be appreciated that an infinitely large number of possible closed and open paths within a three-dimensional space are also possible.
The scale or orientation of the item(s) may also be specified. For example, an item may be perpendicular to the one-manifold, skewed, rotated, oriented so that the top of the item is parallel to the top of the container (see
In three-dimensional space, items may be laid flat with the top edge of the item oriented to the left as illustrated in
Thus, in some embodiments of the invention, the orientation of the item may be specified in relation to some point, axis or plane, or may be oriented as some function of the item itself, its neighbors, and/or the item's neighborhood. Examples of such item-orientation specification could include items facing the viewer, facing a point in three-dimensional-space, tangent (or normal) to a path and so on. An item can also be oriented according to various rules that may incorporate parameters apart from those specified by the manifold itself. For example, items on the manifold may exhibit inertial characteristics that depend on speed of movement: Items could be modeled as objects with mass, which "hang" on the manifold as on a rail; depending on the speed of item movement, they may then orient themselves away from the center of curvature. Other possibilities include enforcing orthogonality of an axis of the item with the tangent of the one-manifold while the object remains "facing" a particular point in space.
By specifying a one-manifold so that portions of the one-manifold fall outside the visible portion of its container, the items on the portion of the manifold outside that container would not be visible, as illustrated in
In some embodiments of the invention, only a subset of the items is displayed. This may be necessary when there are more items than can be desirably displayed in the available space. In some embodiments of the invention, the displayed subset of items is representative of the complete set of items. The first item in the subset may be defined as the first item on the one-manifold.
In some embodiments of the invention, all of the items in the set may be visible by scrolling along the one-manifold. In some embodiments of the invention, a position along the one-manifold is mapped to a position along a linear scroll bar. Hence, scrolling across the one-manifold is translated to movement along the straightened path (see
An exemplary method for placing an object in a container along an embedded one-manifold is illustrated in
At 604 parameters associated with the object to be placed along the embedded one-manifold are received. Parameters associated with the scale or orientation of the item(s) may be specified. For example, an item may be perpendicular to the one-manifold, skewed, rotated, oriented so that the top of the item is parallel to the top of the container. Alternatively, a center line of an item may be oriented tangent to the path or according to any function, algorithm or scheme.
In three-dimensional space, items may be laid flat with the top edge of the item oriented to the left, oriented perpendicularly to the one-manifold with the top edge up, or may be oriented to the viewer with the top edge of the item up, or in any other designated orientation.
Thus, in some embodiments of the invention, the orientation of the item may be specified in relation to some point, axis or plane, or may be oriented as some function of the item itself, its neighbors, and/or the item's neighborhood. Examples of such item-orientation specification could include items facing the viewer, facing a point in three-dimensional-space, tangent (or normal) to a path and so on.
By specifying a one-manifold so that portions of the one-manifold fall outside the visible portion of its container, the items on the portion of the manifold outside that container would not be visible In some embodiments of the invention, only a subset of the items is displayed. This may be necessary when there are more items than can be desirably displayed in the available space. In some embodiments of the invention, the displayed subset of items is representative of the complete set of items. The first item in the subset may be defined as the first item on the one-manifold.
At 606 the placement of the object or objects are calculated. In some embodiments of the invention, x and y coordinates (for a two-dimensional container) or x, y and z coordinates (for a three-dimensional container) are calculated. At 608, the coordinates (and possibly the object(s) are passed to a standard display module for display.
The various techniques described herein may be implemented in connection with hardware or software or, where appropriate, with a combination of both. Thus, the methods and apparatus of the present invention, or certain aspects or portions thereof, may take the form of program code (i.e., instructions) embodied in tangible media, such as floppy diskettes, CD-ROMs, hard drives, or any other machine-readable storage medium, wherein, when the program code is loaded into and executed by a machine, such as a computer, the machine becomes an apparatus for practicing the invention. In the case of program code execution on programmable computers, the computing device will generally include a processor, a storage medium readable by the processor (including volatile and non-volatile memory and/or storage elements), at least one input device, and at least one output device. One or more programs that may utilize the creation and/or implementation of domain-specific programming models aspects of the present invention, e.g., through the use of a data processing API or the like, are preferably implemented in a high level procedural or object oriented programming language to communicate with a computer system. However, the program(s) can be implemented in assembly or machine language, if desired. In any case, the language may be a compiled or interpreted language, and combined with hardware implementations.
While the present invention has been described in connection with the preferred embodiments of the various figures, it is to be understood that other similar embodiments may be used or modifications and additions may be made to the described embodiments for performing the same function of the present invention without deviating therefrom. Therefore, the present invention should not be limited to any single embodiment, but rather should be construed in breadth and scope in accordance with the appended claims.

The Lansing Grand River Assembly Plant has started production of the 2011 Cadillac CTS Coupe and has begun shipping these cars to US dealerships ahead of schedule.
Plant Manager Scott Whybrew said that the carmaker has "very experienced assemblers," who ensure that each vehicle meets the levels of quality and craftsmanship expected in a Cadillac.
He added that Cadillac wants its customers to feel as much pride in owning a Cadillac as the company does in building them.
The new CTS Coupe, which is priced from $38,990, joins the lineup that includes the CTS Sport Sedan and CTS Sport Wagon.
The "two-doored" model features a lower roof line, a shorter overall length, the same wheelbase, and wider track, giving the car a more aggressive stance and athletic profile. Mike Green, president of UAW Local 652, said that this product, which has been getting "rave reviews," gives consumers another choice.
He applauded the Lansing Grand River team members for "making the Coupe a reality." Powering the CTS Coupe is a 3.6 liter V6 engine that uses direct injection to produce 304 hp.
This powerplant, which comes as standard on the model, can distribute its power to the rear wheels or to all four wheels using a six speed automatic transmission or a six speed manual gearbox. Buyers may opt to power the CTS with a 6.2 liter supercharged V8 (the V-Series version of the car) that delivers 564 hp.

Sex and the City is real: Cynthia Nixon confesses storylines happened in real life
NOW we know TV is far from real these days.
Even "reality" TV shows are being exposed as fakes.
But it seems like there is one show we can count on for an injection of reality – Sex and the City.
According to one of its main stars, Cynthia Nixon, the hit series storylines were all real.
"Every plot-line that happened literally happened to someone in the writer's room, or happened to someone they directly knew"Cynthia Nixon
Cynthia – who played straight-talking lawyer Miranda Hobbs – spilled the beans on the show during a chat with NET-A-PORTER's digital magazine The EDIT.
The US star teamed up with actresses Tracee Ellis Ross and Kristen Bell for an interview on sexism.
She said: "A lot of what you see on television is artificial, particularly what you see on the three camera.
"But so much of the time, what really succeeds is the 'realer' it is and it can be dressed up in a lot of a different ways.
"And that's one of the Sex and the City things – every plot-line that happened literally happened to someone in the writer's room, or happened to someone they directly knew.
"So even though some of them were fantastical and absurd, it was based on a real thing."
So you mean to tell us that someone actually got jailed for romping on the beach in Abu Dhabi?
And someone really got stood up at the alter and ran around New York City in a wedding dress?

The Shoal Lake Acqueduct: An Enduring Testament to Pioneering Winnipeggers
Winnipeg enjoys an abundant supply of some of the purest water in North America via the ingenious Shoal Lake aqueduct, which became fully operational in 1919 and was designed to support a future population of approximately one million Winnipeggers.
The City of Winnipeg can provide up to 386,000 cubic metres of water per day, with a design peak capacity of 351,000 cubic metres per day.
As well, the city has access to a number of large aquifers, which can provide significant supplies of low-cost, high-quality groundwater. The largest of these is the Carbonate Aquifer. In addition to groundwater sources, Winnipeg is located in a province with abundant supplies of surface water (lakes/rivers). Surface water represents approximately 16 per cent of the province's overall area.
Wastewater Treatment
The City of Winnipeg's first sewage treatment plant was opened on October 25, 1937. Winnipeg became the first Canadian city with a population exceeding 100,000 to install sewage treatment. Since that time, the plant has been upgraded and expanded to become the North End Water Pollution Control Centre. It's the largest of three wastewater treatment facilities serving the city. It provides primary and secondary activated sludge treatment, as well as sludge processing.
The North End Water Pollution Control Centre treats about 70 per cent of Winnipeg's wastewater. It services most of the old City of Winnipeg, part of St. Boniface, all of East, West, North and Old Kildonan, Transcona and part of St. James. The rest of the city is serviced by the West End Water Pollution Control Centre in Charleswood and the South End Water Pollution Control Centre in St. Vital.

When Financial Intermediaries are Corporate Owners: An Agency Model of Institutional Ownership
Increasingly, the equity investments of individual investors are being channeled through financial institutions. This article posits that the role of institutional owners as financial intermediaries, and the resulting complexity that institutions bring to ownership, distinguish institutional ownership from individual ownership. I develop a model of institutional ownership, referred to as the nexus agency model (NAM), which reflects this complexity. The model provides a framework for identifying the potential additional agency costs to beneficial owners that are associated with owning via financial institutions. The degree to which owning via institutions benefits individual owners depends on the adequacy of the legal and regulatory environment and governance mechanisms in protecting individual owners' interests. The applicability of the nexus model to different institutional owner types is then demonstrated in a discussion of U.S. public and private pension plans and mutual funds, leading to the generation of a NAM-based research agenda for each type and across the types. The article ends with discussion of the model's applicability to non-U.S. institutional environments. Copyright Kluwer Academic Publishers 2000

South Burlington High School has a legacy of providing an outstanding educational experience for the students of our community.

RepairPal is your advocate for car care advice and guidance
Q: Why when I try to start my car does it not work and instead makes a loud noise. on 1994 Ford Explorer
It doesn't even seem to turn over. After a few tries of trying to start it, it just begins making a loud noise almost as if running. It continues until it seems as if it overheats. It has ran fine all day until now. It won't start at all just continues this. Did I blow my engine more than likely? I had coolant in. Oil was low but I added it to try again. Still no help. Idk what is wrong
An engine needs fuel and spark to run. Verify that engine has both of these and that fuel is getting into the engine. Any gas smell inside the air cleaner housing when cranking? if you have fuel and spark but no firing, then it could be a mechanical issue. If there is clunking sounds or other loud abnormal sounds that you don't normally hear, it could be a bad bearings, slipped timing chain, or yes; possible major engine damage, especially if it was ran without oil.
Didn't find what you were looking for?

Have you heard of The Good Ones? They describe themselves as a "dynamic collection of interesting people with common passions." Recently I had the opportunity to attend a Good Ones event with my girl Noelle and I didn't really know what to expect. The event took place at Grille 23 & Bar, a swanky bar and steakhouse restaurant in the Back Bay. We people watched for a bit and then started to build the confidence to mingle with the crowd — all outfitted in the "moody blues" dress code.
We finally started to mingle around and met a few really awesome people. Several seasoned Good Ones told us they felt the same at their first event and assured us — you really can just go up to people, introduce yourself, and start chatting!
Want to attend a Good Ones event? Fill out a Personality Profile on their website and get ready to meet some awesome and like-minded people!

The standalone kiosk has become a mainstay of conventions and typically consists of a computer and touchscreen monitor, housed in a (usually) vertical cabinet. In some models, the kiosk will also contain credit card readers and printers. They can be deployed to deliver or capture information on various products and services. Outside of convention and corporate use, kiosks have literally hundreds of uses, and can be found in airports, malls, retail stores, hotel lobbies and corporate foyers.
Kiosk rentals in the convention space
CRE's interactive kiosk rentals are used by companies in many ways, particularly as a way of deploying additional "virtual employees" at conventions and events. Some of the obvious uses at conventions include:
The newest kiosks include Web connectivity so that a marketing team with their tablet PC rentals can actually update the kiosk contents, download captured data and otherwise manage the device's various tasks. In fact, quite soon many kiosks will be more akin to what IT people call "thin clients," meaning there will be limited computing horsepower and storage in the physical unit, and it will take its orders and get its presentation material over the Internet.
Kiosk (rentals) in the future
With continuing advances in multimedia processing, new generations of ever-more advanced tools will further reduce development costs of kiosks while increasing their capabilities. A range of other new technologies – like signature cards, smart cards, 3G/4G cell phone connectivity, etc. – will lead to kiosk solutions yet to be imagined. While this is happening with the standalone kiosk rental model, there are other interesting "kiosk-ish" things happening as a result of touchscreen technology coming to PCs.
For one example, CRE has touchscreen LCD monitor rentals and the all-in-one desktop computer rental (Sony's VAIO L model) that can be used in kiosk-type ways. By installing some special software, you can create your own kiosk and station it at your exhibit booth's entrance or on a second table. Your "virtual partner" will help you capture more information from more people, perhaps twice as much, since you would be able to assist more than one person at the same time. There are other creative ways to employ kiosk technology that we will address in a future blogs (so check back).
CRE's Account Executives are up to speed on all the technologies you need for success on an trade show exhibit floor or convention. Call, send an e-mail or fill out the Quick Rental Quote form and we will help you find the solutions you need to the challenges you face. With CRE, you are never in it alone.

Best London Musicals for Children
Despite a plethora of amazing musicals and plays taking residence in London's West End, it can sometimes be difficult to pinpoint the productions that will appeal to both you and your youngsters! It is also worth noting that babies and toddlers may not even be admitted into some theatres, with a general age limit of 5+ for every West End musical. Holidays such as half terms, Christmas, summer and Easter may throw up the option of a day out in London; below, we pick out our favourite six musicals that will strike the perfect balance between being fun for the little ones and for you!
Booking in advance can often guarantee the best seats for the best prices.
Age Restrictions
Whilst some shows such as The Gruffalo and The Secret Garden allow children of all ages to attend, including babes-in-arms, some theatres operate strict age restrictions that will not permit those under 5 into the auditorium. In all cases, every family member must hold their own ticket. Examples of shows for children with age restrictions include Matilda the Musical (6+) and Aladdin (6+).
Age Recommendations
On the other hand, there are certain productions which provide age recommendations, which are loose guidelines that may help you to decide whether a show is appropriate for your child. Musicals that fit into this bracket include Wicked, Mamma Mia! and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
Top 6 Shows to See with Children
Below are our list of London's top 6 musicals, which are guaranteed to entertain the whole family.
6. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory the Musical
Sam Mendes' Olivier Award-winning adaptation of Roald Dahl's beloved children's book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory closes early 2017 after a spectacular few years in the West End. Don't miss out on the opportunity to see this deliciously tasty treat, which makes a transfer to Broadway in the New Year. Following the story of young Charlie Bucket, who wins a golden ticket to attend a tour of Willy Wonka's magical chocolate factory, this musical has been hailed for its imaginative book, spectacular sets and mesmerising music. Entirely child-friendly, Mendes' musical will delight both adults and children with its zany humour and toe-tapping routines.
Where: Theatre Royal Drury Lane
Recommended for: Ages 7 and up. Children under the age of 5 will not be admitted.
5. Wicked
Now playing its 10th year in the West End, Wicked has been entertaining audiences with its spell-binding score and heart-warming story of Elphaba and Glinda. Loosely based on the backstory of The Wizard of Oz, Wicked sees how the two girls go from bitter enemies to best friends, on a journey that changes them both forever. As they discover the dark secrets of Oz, Elphaba and Glinda are forced to confront their deepest fears and embrace who they truly are. With songs that have no doubt been heard in your car, house and all over town, Wicked features the show-stopping "Defying Gravity" and "For Good".
Where: Apollo Victoria Theatre
Recommended for: Ages 8 and up. Children under the age of 4 will not be admitted.
4. The Lion King
Running at the Lyceum Theatre since 1999, Disney's The Lion King remains one of London's top shows. An electrifying combination of eye-catching costumes, enchanting puppetry and a well-known musical score, this stage adaptation of the classic tale brings to life the beloved characters of Simba, Timon and Pumbaa. Following the same story as the film, the musical includes the famous songs "Circle of Life", "Can You Feel the Love Tonight", "Hakuna Matata" and many, many more that will have the whole family dancing in their seats! With a wide range of matinee performances available, The Lion King is the perfect choice for those looking to fill out a day in the big city.
Where: Lyceum Theatre
Recommended for: Ages 6 and up. Children under the age of 3 will not be admitted.
3. Matilda the Musical
Another Roald Dahl classic that has received a stellar adaptation to the stage, Matilda the Musical is the beloved story of a very little girl with very large powers. Adapted by Dennis Kelly and Tim Minchin, the musical includes an astoundingly memorable score, featuring hit songs such as "When I Grow Up", "Naughty" and "Revolting Children". Following little Matilda, who adores to read and tell stories, the musical sees her and her friends attend school with the chokey-loving Miss Trunchbull and the sweet and delicate Miss Honey. Those who loved the 1996 film will find many parallels here, but the Olivier Award-winning set and hugely talented youngsters will have your little ones clamouring to join their nearest amateur theatre group!
Where: Cambridge Theatre
Recommended for: Ages 6 and up. Children under the age of 5 will not be admitted.
2. School of Rock the Musical
After a smash-hit opening on Broadway, Andrew Lloyd Webber's adaptation of the 2003 film starring Jack Black wowed audiences and critics alike! School of Rock the Musical is the jaw-dropping new show that follows wannabe rock-star Dewey Finn as he parades as a substitute teacher and discovers he has a very talented cast. Featuring an immensely talented cast of children, School of Rock the Musical includes rebellious numbers such as "You're in the Band" and "Stick it to the Man". Don't be surprised if your children start showing an interest in musical instruments afterwards!
Where: New London Theatre
Recommended for: Ages 7 and up. Children under the age of 5 will not be admitted.
1. Aladdin
Our first choice musical for your young ones and you is Disney's mesmerising Aladdin at London's Prince Edward Theatre. Following the well-known story of a street urchin who discovers a magic lamp and the even more magical Genie inside, this glittering show has been dazzling audiences on the West End since summer began! Guaranteed to capture the hearts of the whole family, Aladdin includes Disney hits such as "One Jump Ahead", "Friend Like Me" and "A Whole New World". See the beloved characters of Aladdin, Princess Jasmine and Genie come to life with a bang in this hugely fun musical. Guaranteed to get those toes tapping and smiles all round!
Where: Prince Edward Theatre
Recommended for: Ages 6 and up. Children under the age of 5 will not be admitted.

6 thoughts on "Best London Musicals for Children"
I'm visiting London with my young daughter in October & had hoped to bring her to see 'Shrek', as she loves the movie 🙂
Do you think, if I asked for seats near the rear of the stalls, she would be granted access? She's almost 4 … &, what's in a year?! 😉
She's quite advanced & knows when she should & shouldn't be talking (or shouting, as the case may sometimes be!!) so I have full confidence in her ability to sit through the show & enjoy it.
I understand that there must be age restrictions, but surely the rules can be bent when a Mother is taking full responsibility for her child (not letting him/ her run down the aisles like I've often seen, in children much older than 5!!!)
Hi Claire – for Shrek the Musical it appears that children under the age of 5 are not allowed into the theatre, so if your daughter is 4 it will probably be a problem! I would call the box office before booking!!
"Although there is no particularly strong language or violence in any of
these shows, it is left to your discretion as to whether you would be
comfortable taking young children along."
I have to disagree with the above statement with regard to Jersey Boys, there is indeed a lot of strong language.
I don't think anyone was recommending Jersey Boys as a children's show at all. I agree that Matilda is a great show for kids.
Oh! Great thanks! Coming to London with my 12 year old daughter in half term in a few weeks. It sounds like she will love it!
it sounds great thanks i will take my 43 bro to these

This Arabian country offers a plethora of shopping options to its visitors. Dubai attractions always wait for romantic couples so as to make their honeymoon a special one. During Dubai city tours, you may come to contact with several shopping malls, which will surely catch your attention.
Let's have a small introduction of Shopping malls in Dubai before you are flying for the country.
Dubai Mall:

Niven Family Wine Estates, based in San Luis Obispo's Edna Valley on California's South Central Coast, is one of the most innovative family-owned wine companies in America. Recognizing the diversity of our SIP Certified Sustainable estate in the cool-climate Edna Valley, we grow eleven different varietals, and make an extreme range of wines in a wide array of carefully focused styles. No other wine company, whether corporately held or family-owned, grows grapes and makes such a broad spectrum of wines from a single cool-climate estate. Rather than group all of these efforts under one wine brand, the Nivens have strategically positioned them as separate projects for you to enjoy.
"The Niven Family, pioneers of the Edna Valley, have been here since day one—living, breathing and farming their historic Paragon Vineyard since 1973."
Jack Niven came to San Luis Obispo in the early 1970s with the vision to plant a vineyard in what was then a valley of dairy farms and dry-farmed garbanzo beans. After working with the top viticulture professors from UC Davis and Fresno State, he determined the perfect location and planted the Paragon Vineyard in 1973. Home to the oldest continually producing vines in the region, the Niven family has owned and farmed this vineyard for more than 40 years. Jack later went on to petition to establish Edna Valley as an official American Viticultural Area (AVA) in 1982.
The second and third generations of the Niven family have since continued his legacy. Today, their portfolio focuses on exploring the endless potential and diversity in their historic Paragon Vineyard and throughout San Luis Obispo County.
The Historic Independence Schoolhouse, built as a one-room schoolhouse in 1909 for the local farming community, has since been updated and now houses the tasting room where the portfolio of Niven Family wines are poured.
The Niven Family pioneered the Edna Valley with the planting of their historic Paragon Vineyard back in 1973.
At the foot of our Paragon Vineyard lies Islay Hill, the last extinct volcano in a string known as the "Seven Sisters" stretching from Morro Bay to our estate.
Our entire estate is SIP Certified Sustainable. We are proud to say that we have farmed in a sustainable fashion since the beginning.
The Niven Family is joined by a supremely talented team to help us produce our diverse library of wines. From the vine to the bottle, everyone works together as one and we'd love for you to get to know the leaders of our team.
Christian Roguenant was born to make wine. A native of the Burgundy region of France, he grew up surrounded by vineyards. Christian decided early on to become a winemaker, studying enology and winemaking at the University of Dijon. There, he honed his skills early and has since made wine in numerous countries across five continents. Included in his experience were fifteen years with Champagne Deutz, one of the premier Champagne houses in France and service as a consultant to wineries around the world. His travels brought him to wineries in Argentina, Germany, Australia, New Zealand and Korea, where he made sparkling wine for the 1988 Olympics. The opportunity to make exceptional wines in San Luis Obispo County led him to the Central Coast. He has over 30 vintages under his belt and has been with the Niven Family for over 18 years. When Christian is not crafting our wide variety of wines, he is an avid chef, photographer, and guitar player.
Scott Williams has been farming the Niven Family's Paragon Vineyard for over a decade. He is a cool climate expert who knows San Luis Obispo County viticulture like the back of his hand. Ask him what the average rainfall or highest temperature day was back in 2006 and he'll probably know the answer. Growing grapes in the coolest AVA in California is no easy task and demands patience and foresight. He has an intuitive pulse on the property that guides his caretaking of the vineyard. His deep knowledge and connection to our estate is inspiring. Working outside amongst Mother Nature's beauty is a perfect fit for this avid outdoorsman – when he's not nurturing the vines that produce grapes for the Niven family's wines, you might find him mountain biking on one of SLO's many trails, training for a rock climbing trip up El Capitan, or at the beach surfing.

It's definitely a big week for high school basketball.
Besides a couple of huge potential games in county tournaments, the regular season is winding down, so areas are beginning to take shape.
Several Northeast Alabama teams will be trying to up their status in the upcoming area tournament brackets.
Tuesday, Glencoe hosts Hokes Bluff in a couple of huge games.
The Yellow Jackets need to win the boys' and girls' games in order to guarantee the right to host.
Should Hokes Bluff win either game, that makes Friday's Susan Moore at Glencoe games that much bigger.
If the Eagles defeat Glencoe in the girls' game, tiebreakers come into play, unless Susan Moore also beats the Yellow Jackets.
If Hokes Bluff's boys beat Glencoe, the Yellow Jackets have to beat Susan Moore to force a three-way tie with Hokes Bluff and Sardis, should Sardis win Tuesday at Susan Moore and Friday when West End visits.
The Etowah girls have a 2-2 record in 5A, 14 and host Arab (undefeated in area play) Tuesday.
It's just about impossible for the Blue Devils to win the area, but coach John Butts wants the team to win another area game or two, to avoid dropping to fourth- or fifth-place and a play-in game.
"We'd love to stay in the No. 2 or 3 spot," he said.
Friday, the Knights, ranked No. 3 in 5A, travel to Fort Payne.
With point guard Alli Smalley, an Auburn signee, running the show, Arab has thus far taken care of the area, beating Fort Payne by 60-51 on Nov. 28.
If the Wildcats can win at home Friday, a coin toss would determine area champion - unless Etowah beats Arab Tuesday.
Friday, Albertville travels to Etowah.
The Aggies are in control of their destiny in the boys' race, as they sport a 6-0 record.
"We need one more win before it's clinched," said Albertville coach Patrick Harding. "If we lost the last two, we could still host the area tournament, but it might mean a coin toss, if Fort Payne (3-2) wins out."
Ashville goes to Boaz Tuesday with a chance to win the 4A, 11 title.
The Bulldogs have a 3-1 loss, to Douglas. The Eagles have two area losses and are finished with area play.
A win over Boaz gives Ashville the tiebreaker over Douglas, should the Bulldogs lose their area finale.
"I hope we have our game face on," said Ashville coach Dale Beason. "We've lost two in a row (to Springville and Glencoe), so we need to come ready to play."
Douglas has won the boys' area crown.
Gadsden City is still early in its area race, sporting a 2-1 6A, Area 14 record so far on the girls' side and 3-0 for the boys.
The next three games for the Titans are area games.
Gadsden City's girls are tied with Clay-Chalkville.
In Class 1A, Area 9, Coosa's girls are 3-1 and trail only Jacksonville Christian. Tuesday, the Conquerors host Sacred Heart in an area game.
Coosa has yet to play Donoho, which has postponed its home game twice.
High school basketball reaching critical point
It's definitely a big week for high school basketball.

"Yummy granola made with whatever I have on hand at the time! Basic recipe from Ina Garten, but I toss in all kinds of fruits and nuts. Our friend Bill cannot keep his hands out of it and I always send him home with a bag to snack on! The first time I made it, it looked like alot so I used 2 sheet pans! Big mistake! Just pile it on one, and do not overbake it...it will seem "soft" when you take it out, but will "crisp up" as it cools! I bag it up in snack size servings,...and larger bags for Bill! Freezes well, and great on yogurt, ice cream, cereal or just out of hand."

Chief Justice Zaki Azmi dare not comment on complaint against himself
There is something rotten in Malaysia, and it is the Judiciary. Look at the face of its Chief Justice on being asked to comment on a complaint filed by Karpal Singh against him in August under the Judges' Code of Ethics Act, 2009 and the Judges' Ethics Committee Act, 2009 (photos extracted from video tape 6:25):
We have a Chief Justice who allergly admitted to bribing court official with a tape of his bribery admission handed to the King in February this year. Till now, nothing was done, no enquiry or investigation, no denial nor any effort to clear his name.
Karpal Singh further filed a complaint against Zaki Azmi last month claiming Zaki Ahmad had a "defect in character" warranting disciplinary action under the Acts. The complaint was hand delivered to the Chief Justice's office on September 24 and here on being asked to confirm he had received the complaint, he grimaced and immediately clamped up saying "No comment. I do not want to enter into the political arena."
Hey this is no politics! It is about the integrity of the highest office of the Judiciary in which every Malaysians have a stake. His refusal to comment on the matter plus his demeanor is likely an admission of guilt.
Listen to the videotape of Zaki Azmi bragging about how quick the cases in the courts are being disposed of but looked so frightened upon being asked that embarassing question by the reporter. That embarassing moment is at 6:25 minute of the 6:28 minute long video:

Darjeeling, Nov. 19: Buddhadeb Bhattacharjees visit is expected to kick up a storm with the ABGL planning to come out on to the streets with black flags to protest against the chief ministers three-day stay here.
Not only that, party president Madan Tamang has threatened with a shutdown during the period if anti-Gorkha people disrupted the Darjeeling district bandh on November 22, a day before Bhattacharjees arrival.
The bandh has been called to protest against the imposition of the Sixth Schedule status on the hills. Recently, the Gorkha Janmukti Morcha formed by expelled GNLF leader Bimal Gurung has been trying to garner support against the Sixth Schedule.
Tamangs threat follows the GNLF announcement that it would oppose the shutdown tooth and nail.
The ABGL president added that the bandh would be extended to four days if a single member of the party got a scratch or just one shop was forcibly opened.
He said ABGL supporters would follow Bhattacharjee, who will be here to attend the district conference of the CPM, with black flags across Darjeeling.
Bhattacharjee is the chief architect of this special status that threatens to divide our community. It is the duty of every citizen to protest against it. We appeal to all the people in the hills to put up black flags on rooftops, said Tamang, whose party is a member of the PDF, an anti-Subash Ghisingh coalition.
Deepak Gurung, the president of the GNLF Darjeeling Branch Committee, however, made it clear that his party would oppose the bandh. Everything will remain open on that day, he said.
In another significant development, Kishore Gurung a GNLF strongman was appointed the convener of the partys unit in the Singmari-Tukvar area, considered a forte of the Morcha. The appointment is expected to come as a blow to the new party.
During the agitation, I was recognised as a militant leader but after having contributed my share, I decided to settle down with my family. I was never really after chair or power, said Kishore, who had contested from Singmari-Tukvar as an independent candidate against Bimal Gurung in the 1999 DGHC elections and lost by a narrow margin.
Kishore, who has also been given additional charge as chief convener of the GNLFs youth wing in Darjeeling, added that even while remaining aloof politically, a lot of youths were always in touch with him.
I used to tell the GNLF leaders that the youths were getting disillusioned. This is why our party has suffered setbacks in certain areas. However, now that I have been entrusted with a responsibility
, he trailed off.
It was learnt that Kishore was asked to take charge of the two posts by Ghisingh three days ago.
