No branch of government meets in the White House. The White House is the presidential residence and a National Museum. The bottom floors can be toured by the public and the park service controls what is shown and displayed there. The president and his family live on the upper floors. Added to the White House is the west wing that does contain offices, the press room, and other things. The president does hold state dinners in the rooms on the ground floor and also has a bowling alley and movie theater for the use of the president, his family, and friends. At one time there was also a swimming pool which has been filled in.

There are three main techniques to home soundproofing, all of which work on the principle that sound waves keep traveling until they hit some resistance and that the volume of sound fades as it travels. For soundproofing walls, the first and the easiest way is to create space in the rooms. Large rooms stop sounds from traveling. But if this is not possible, then cheap soundproofing options can be availed by placing heavy furniture around the house. Heavy items absorb sound and act as a resistance to sound waves. Commonplace household items and building materials such as sofas, thick curtains and even marble slabs act as good soundproofing material.

The third soundproofing option is to get a house professionally insulated. Professional insulators use double paned windows to minimize noise travel. Window plugs are filled in the gaps to make sure that the room is completely impervious to sound invasion. Also, soundproofing ceilings as well as walls are necessary in order to make a room quiet. For this, layers of thin drywalls are added in between rooms so that they can absorb the sound waves. At times, wallpapers can also act as good sound absorbents. For soundproofing floors, the best option is to get thick carpets which muffle footsteps.

Appropriate soundproofing not only prevents outside sound from entering the house, but also prevents unwanted sounds from disturbing the neighborhood. That's why it becomes important for home owners to use the correct soundproofing products and techniques to make their haven a comfort zone - away from the intrusion of unwanted noises.
