2. Exotic Wood
   All Exotic Wood doors are handfinished, using three layers of acrylic resins in aqueous emulsion, which last much longer than traditional varnish or urethane. And, all six wood sides are sealed prior to assembly.
3. Victoria Wood
   Victoria Wood is a talented comedy actress/writer/singer who has built up a national reputation following a string of self-written TV plays, films and sketch shows. Born in 1953 in Lancashire in Northern England she first had small screen exposure in the TV talent search show New Faces when she sang comedy songs of her own composition. Accompanying herself on the piano, she scored heavily with viewing audiences with her jaunty tunes, which often belied her sharp, poignant lyrics. Her regular themes of unrequited love, tedium, mismatched couples, and suburban living as well as her ability to find humour in the minutiae of modern life, stood her in good stead when she moved into writing plays for the stage and later for television.
4. James Woods

Among his many honors are Academy Award nominations for Best Actor in a Leading Role in "Salvador" and Best Actor in a Supporting Role in "Ghosts of Mississippi." He earned an Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Mini-Series or Special for "Promise," for which he ... won a Golden Globe Award, and he also won an Emmy Award in the same Lead Actor category for "My Name is Bill W."
5. Woodworking -- Projects
   One of the most popular woodworking tools is the compound miter saw. These saws are very useful for projects not only in the wood shop, but for home improvement projects as well. In order to use a compound miter saw effectively outside of the shop, one needs a stand that holds the work off of the ground, and supports the stock on both sides of the saw.
6. The Journeyman Project
   The Journeyman Project Turbo is an updated CD-ROM version of the original game by the same name (sans Turbo). It won New Media Magazine's Multimedia Awards for Best Animation and Graphics. The game revolves around time travel in the 24th Century. You are an agent (time traveler) with the Temporal Protectorate whose task is to ensure that no one tampers with the space time continuum for nefarious purposes. During your shift at work, alarms sound indicating a rip in time! Your task is to travel back in time to a period before the time crime occurs and stop a potential catastrophic corruption which can destroy the peaceful, unified world order that mankind has achieved.
7. Manhattan Project
   The Manhattan Project is Shandor Hassan’s first featured exhibition at the Jersey City Museum. But he’s no stranger to the galleries of Hudson County and the emerging Jersey City art scene. He’s presented his work in more than 20 showings over the past six years —including exhibitions at the C.A.S.E. Museum in Downtown Jersey City, and the John Meagher Rotunda of his adopted home’s City Hall. He has had numerous exhibitions in New York City, including a showing of his American Journey Series at the OK HARRIS Gallery, and the education gallery of the International Center of Photography. His skills as a cabinet maker and sculptor have led him to working with reknowned architect and /artist Lebbeus Woods on many projects —including works exhibited at the 2002 Whitney Biennial, the Cooper Union and the Cartier Foundation in Paris.
8. Don Henley -- Walden Woods
   In 1990, Henley founded the Walden Woods Project to help protect Walden Woods from development. The Thoreau Institute at Walden Woods was started in 1998 to provide for research and education regarding Henry David Thoreau.
9. Alan Gerry -- Bethel Woods
   When Alan Gerry bought the 37-acre natural amphitheater in Bethel, some think he was literally paving paradise. "None of this was like this," says Abramson, driving by the festival site, past rolling green hills, past the former hog farm. "It's heartbreaking. It was natural. Now it's man-made, with paved roads, manicured lawns. He put up fences.
10. Ed Wood -- Stories
    Ed Wood gave Burton the opportunity to make a film that was more character-driven as opposed to style-driven. He said in an interview, "On a picture like this I find you don't need to storyboard. You're working mainly with actors, and there's no effects going on, so it's best to be more spontaneous."[6]
