She plays Teddy Duncan in the Disney Channel Original Series Good Luck Charlie and appeared in the 2009 made for television film Labor Pains. In 2009, she became a recurring character for the Disney Channel Original Series Wizards of Waverly Place. In December of that year, she made her theatrical debut in the film Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakuel, released on December 23, 2009. Following the positive reception to her character on Wizards of Waverly Place, she became the star of the Disney series Good Luck Charlie, which premiered in April 2010. In 2011, she appeared in the film Good Luck Charlie, It's Christmas.
She starred in the Disney Channel Original Movie Lemonade Mouth, in which her character Olivia performs numerous songs. Two singles were released from the soundtrack featuring her vocals, with both charting on the US Hot 100Billboard. In 2012, Mendler released her debut album Hello My Name Is..., which featured a pop sound. It debuted at number 30 on the US 200Billboard, and has sold over 173,000 copies as of 2013. Her debut single off the album "Ready or Not", became an international Top 40 hit, the song was certified gold in Norway, and platinum in New Zealand, United States and Canada and peaked at number 49 on the Billboard Hot 100. It was announced that her second single will be "Hurricane". The video premiered on April 12, 2013 and was shot in London.
Wizards of Waverly Place is an American supernatural fantasy teen sitcom which ran from October 12, 2007 to January 6, 2012 on Disney Channel. The series was created by Todd J. Greenwald, and stars Selena Gomez, David Henrie and Jake T. Austin as three wizard siblings with magical abilities competing to win sole custody of the family powers. Further main cast includes Jennifer Stone, María Canals Barrera and David DeLuise.
The series won "Outstanding Children's Program" at the 61st Primetime Emmy Awards in 2009. A film adaptation of the series, Wizards of Waverly Place: The Movie, premiered as a Disney Channel Original Movie on August 28, 2009. The film adaptation won "Outstanding Children's Program" at the 62nd Primetime Emmy Awards earning the series its second consecutive Emmy. The farewell season won "Outstanding Children's Program" at the 64th Primetime Emmy Awards bringing the franchise's total to three Emmy awards. Wizards of Waverly Place ended as the longest-running Disney Channel Original Series (surpassing That's So Raven) with 106 episodes over four seasons. Its series finale averaged nearly 10 million viewers (live+same day), which made that episode the most-watched series finale in Disney Channel's history.
Brassiere measurement (also called brassiere size, bra size or bust size) refers to determining what size of bra a woman wears and mass-producing bras that will fit most women. Bra sizes usually consist of a number, indicating a band size around the woman's torso, and one or more letters indicating the breast cup size. Bra cup sizes were invented in 1932 and band sizes became popular in the 1940s.
Bra sizes vary from one manufacturer to another, and from country to country. Women's bodies and breasts may not conform to the sizes offered by companies. As a result, some women have a difficult time finding a properly fitted bra. Up to 80% of women wear the wrong size bra causing 40% to 60% to experience pain of one kind or another.]citation needed[

How would you describe the mannerisms that Jony Ives uses when he appears in the Apple videos such as the one below?
I ask because we hired a new UX guy at our company who talks just like him, using the same mannerisms. Are all UX people like Jony Ives?

Meh, so what.
This kind of love is what gives Apple their cultist label.
Probably, but what people think of Apple is not really my business. I can appraise the work of Ive because he really does a great job at designing. That people turn Apple into a cult, that is not my problem. I give credits where it is due, and critic when necessary.

Chef Guy Kimchi of the Latin-fusion La Boca on Emek Refaim in Jerusalem has taken
ethnic food in the opposite direction. Kimchi studied at the Hadassah school of
hotel management in Jerusalem, and in 2003 he traveled around South America
perfecting his craft and studying the local cuisines. In Buenos Aires he liked
to frequent a popular area called La Boca, a neighborhood with a lot of color,
restaurants, artists and street musicians. "It was there that I came up with the
idea of opening a kosher Latin restaurant in Israel," he says.In
Argentina he learned about meat, the ceviche is from Peru, and so on around the
continent. Local delicacies from every Latin American country are
represented, after having been adapted to the Israeli palate. Kimchi returned to
Israel in 2004, worked in a restaurant in Jerusalem and began looking for a
place to open his own establishment.Situated on the second floor of an
old Templer building, La Boca, which opened in 2006, seems to be largely
successful, and Kimchi, who describes himself as traditional, clearly revels in
the challenges of the kosher kitchen.Upon entering a pleasant and
elegant room, we had the choice of seating in the main restaurant or on the
large enclosed terrace overlooking the street. We chose the terrace which,
together with the soft background music, immediately succeeded in relaxing us.
Our skilled waiter was a great help in explaining the various dishes listed on
the menu.The menu offers 18 starters, such as tapas, soup, salads,
carpaccio, enchiladas, ceviche and tortillas. There are 15 choices of
main courses, which include fish, paella, beef, fajitas, liver and lamb. And
there are six desserts, including hot churros served with parve ice cream and a
tropical fruit salad.Stand-out dishes include entrecote steak, which is
served with grilled vegetables, and what has become La Boca's signature dish,
ceviche (marinated fish salad) made with red tuna and served on a fried corn
tortilla.For starters, we sampled the beef carpaccio (NIS 49). The
carpaccio, with a balsamic sauce, was delicious, if a bit thicker than usual.
Even better was the Mexican chicken salad (NIS 53).The portion was
generous but was quite unlike the tubs of raw vegetables that most restaurants
feel impelled to call salads. The finely chopped chicken, garnished with a
balsamic vinaigrette, covered a bed of lettuce. It was superb. The fried corn
tortilla in the salad was an added bonus.Of the main courses, I have to
admit that we were particularly taken with the mixed parrilla for two (NIS 230).
What's a mixed parrilla? A combination of entrecote, lamb ribs, spring chicken,
chorizo, served with salad or crispy potato – for real meat lovers. The spring
chicken was juicy, tender and, surprisingly, not very poultry-flavored. The
entrecote was a soft, smooth piece of meat and nothing for a carnivore to scoff
at. I liked the chorizo a lot. It is normally made from pork, but at La Boca it
is made from veal with lamb fat. The ribs were good, too, with a Middle
Eastern flavor seasoning the lamb.My personal favorite was the bife de
lomo – beef fillet medallions in a sweet wine and cranberry sauce. Being
South African, I have an affection for sweet meats, and this dish certainly hit
the spot.After a large, heavy meal, neither my dining partner nor I was
particularly interested in dessert. In the end, we gave in and tried the churros
(NIS 34) – three dough cylinders seasoned and stuffed with nougat mash. My
dining partner was over the moon, as she had recently traveled to South America,
thereby giving it a thumbs up for its authentic taste Overall, La Boca is a
great place for nearly everyone, from a couple to a large party. Not only is the
food of the highest quality, but the wait staff is knowledgeable and friendly,
and their smiles are genuine. They really seem to enjoy their work.The
writer was a guest of the restaurant.La Boca Kosher 46 Emek Refaim

In an effort to raise awareness and support for electric vehicles in China, General Motors China has signed a memorandum of understanding with the China Automotive Technology and Research Center (CATARC). The MOU gives CATARC the power to manage GM's Chevy Volt demonstration fleet in Beijing for one year and to help organize workshops and seminars that will build support among decision makers and key stakeholders for vehicle electrification policy in China.
GM and CATARC will jointly be responsible for gathering feedback from the Chevy Volt fleet usage to better target discussions and actions to support new energy vehicle policy in China. The two partners will also study how real-world performance, charging and infrastructure for the Volt and other electric vehicles can address the varying needs of Chinese consumers.
"The Volt, with its cutting-edge and practical technologies, will provide information to assist us in preparing the Chinese market for future electrified vehicles," stated CATARC Director Zhao Hang.
According to Ray Bierzynski, GM China executive director of Electrification Strategy, GM's relationship with CATARC will provide GM access to top opinion leaders and policymakers. "It is important for us to offer those in key positions to affect policy an opportunity to experience firsthand our variety of electrification solutions for reducing the automotive industry's dependence on petroleum," he said.
China is among the initial markets to introduce the Volt following its launch in the United States.

Possibilities with the current plantel. Still need a 9 (Benzema in no way is the ´one ´).

Posted by Vicks Kennel Club on 6/29 at 11:31 am to Dandy LionWould swapping Ozil and Isco in that 442 work?
What other changes do you think will made? Suarez replacing Benzema? Sell Luka?
I would like a right back.
I want Ozil to drive the car in what offense is created, but Ronaldo needs to complement him well and get his chances.

quote:with Cristiano, this is difficult. He´s like a black hole. Give the ball to him, and you never see it again. For good or bad.
It´s painful to watch how underutilized Özil is on this team. He does a lot, only because he´s a dedicated and über talented beast. Others would desist in his position, methinks.
Going forward, we´ll see what happens. At least the days of heaving forward with no plan, give it to Cristiano, and stand around, are gone.
I don´t know how Cristiano will adapt to Ancelotti´s concepts. Theoretically, he could adapt just fine. I mean to say, will he accept them? Will he buy in? That´s the real question.

Posted by Vicks Kennel Club on 6/29 at 12:06 pm to Dandy LionThat is also my fear of getting Bale. Bale's teammates were simply reliant on him being a one-man show, which is generally good, but you need better to beat Barcelona. It can work against the mid table sides quite well.
Maybe Ancelotti will make the video game move and put Cristiano up front. I am curious to see if Ozil could pull more strings that way. It is important to have Ronaldo making his off ball runs as well. Those counter attacks are so fluid and a thing of beauty to watch.

He is, and he isn't. He can combine really well, and at this point in his career, unless he's taking one of his 4-5, mostly pointless 45 yard shots per game, he's not doing anything incredibly wasteful on the ball (which was pretty evident during his ~month long scoring drought). Two of his best attributes are his ability to move off the ball and his ability to work in transition: two things that Oezil can, and does, accommodate or find really well.
I think that many of Oezil's problems stem from being relegated out wide or subbed off after 60 minutes.

Posted by joey barton on 6/29 at 12:19 pm to Vicks Kennel ClubI've never really liked to see Ronaldo played centrally. In Madrid, a lot of his danger moving inside is generated by his ability to take the ball to the end line and cross with his left. Of course, he isn't going to spend a lot of his time tracking back, so you kind of need to accommodate for that.

I didn't see Real Madrid all that often but my feeling from the handful I did see is that Oezil can't be such an absolute zero defensively if he wants to play full matches against good teams.

Posted by joey barton on 6/29 at 12:27 pm to wm72It's a good criticism, and I vaguely touched on it in another thread.
I think that the easiest thing, in theory, would be to convince Ronaldo to track back. That probably isn't happening, and it's a shame.

Hey man, you never know, Jupp somehow convinced Ribery and Robben to play dedicated defense.
Reply Back to Top
Posted by Vicks Kennel Club on 6/29 at 1:08 pm to TweezyClearly Ozil was not a perfect fit for Mourinho. Him and CR7 at least need to show something when defending. It killed me when they pull Ozil early because he is clearly their second best player.
There is no way to pick an optimal solution until we know who are the parts are.

You got a tractor? You got a silage cart? Well sir - you've got yourself a luxurious family wagon. Many Irish families seem to have forgone the need to purchase a car instead squeezing Mum, Dad, children, grandparents, aunts, uncles, pets, the kitchen sink and some silage into a Massey Ferguson cabin en route to the local village of a Saturday afternoon.

As part of the dialogue about job creation, we should not overlook the contribution of foreign companies which grow their businesses here in the U.S. - it's called localization and we need more of it.
Let's consider Japan. Twenty years ago, it was feared that Japanese auto makers would flood the U.S. with exports, and cause displacement of American auto manufacturing jobs in Japan. Today, almost 7 in 10 Japanese cars sold in the U.S. are produced in Japanese manufacturing plants in North America. What's more, exported vehicles from Japanese plants in U.S. to other countries increased to more than 145,000, up from 94,000 in 2009.
Japanese auto makers such as Toyota (TM) [3] and Honda (HMC) have invested more than $34 billion in the U.S. alone through 2010, and now employ over 40,000 Americans in 29 manufacturing plants, 33 R&D and design centers and dealer and distributorships, according to the 2012 report of the Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association.
The weakening dollar vs. yen has contributed to the growing employment of Americans by Japanese firms: in 1980, the USD bought almost 210 yen; in 1990 it bought over 133 yen; it now buys around 77 yen. While not the sole factor, the weakening dollar does make it more attractive some Japanese firms to pay for manufacturing plants and labor in dollars, which has contributed to more production in the U.S.
Another reason overseas companies are hiring Americans is to get closer to their customers and weave themselves into the economic and social fabric of a major market. An excellent example is Genpact [4] (G), a Bermuda-incorporated company, which was spun off from General Electric (GE) [5] in 2005. The company provides business process and technology management services to more than 600 companies around the world. It has doubled its U.S. workforce recently. It now has close to 3,000 employees in the U.S., its fastest growing market, and expects to continue to aggressively recruit for positions in business development, operations, analytics and reengineering, especially for its services delivery centers in Danville, Illinois; Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania; and Irvine California. At the core of Genpact's effort to build U.S. talent is its leadership and professional skills training programs, with numerous courses and professional certifications. These employee development programs enable Genpact to provide higher-level services to its hundreds of U.S. based clients, and have won awards from such organizations like the American Society for Training & Development [6] (ASTD).
Genpact is committed not only to its direct clients, but to also being a good corporate citizen in the U.S., and its employees are involved in many charitable and community endeavors. Genpact's President & CEO, N.V. "Tiger" Tyagarajan, sums up their global strategy: "as a global, client-focused services company that is traded on the New York Stock Exchange, Genpact at this stage of our evolution must be closer to our clients."
Another example: Wipro [7] (WIT), a global IT leader that established its first U.S. headquarters in Mountain View, California in 1992, which has invested over $1 billion in the U.S., and now employs 9,000 in 95 cities throughout 24 states. While the vast majority of these employees are from India, Wipro is ramping up hiring in the U.S., and has become one of Atlanta's largest job creators, with more than 500 employees, of which 80% are U.S. citizens. Wipro has a development center in Atlanta, Georgia, and established a working relationship with the local community. It recruits new graduates from local colleges and universities such as Georgia Tech, University of Georgia, Emory University and Georgia State. Last year, Wipro won an award from the Metro Atlanta Chamber of Commerce for being a top source of job creation and an expected source of future growth. With a growing American staff, Wipro has expanded business opportunities as it can now better compete for contracts with U.S. customers in certain categories such as healthcare, government agencies, utility companies and defense contractors.
For many reasons – changing cost equation, client proximity, corporate citizenship, expanding markets, to mention some – foreign companies are setting up shop in the U.S. and making a positive impact on the U.S. economy. This is set to continue in the years to come and should benefit the U.S. economy.

Trying to understand filter & pump equipment
We're just in the beginning process of selecting a pool contractor. One of them uses Pentair equipment. I'm trying to education myself on this brand, (had a pool built in 84, used all Hayward) Anyway, the builder has quoted a Pentair-VS3050. When we went to his showroom, he had two types of equipment, one was beige the other was black. He specifically said "the black Pentair equipment is the higher quality of the two" . Now I've looked on the web, I can't find any "Pentair" equipment that is black. Can anyone let me in on the secret. Is there such thing as black Pentair equipment? Any help is greatly appreciated.
The only black Pentair branded pump is the Challenger, but it does not come in a VS model. I work for a builder, I order this equipment almost daily and there is no secret black Pentair equipment.
He possibly could have been referring to Sta-Rite equipment, Pentair owns the Sta-Rite brand as well and most of their equipment is black. When you go to pentairpool.com and look at their equipment the Pentair (except the Challenger pump) is all almond and Sta-Rite is black.
Thanks for the quick response. So is Sta-Rite a superior product? I'm thinking just because it's owned by Pentair doesn't mean it is Pentair right? His quote says "VS3050" but in the showroom the pc he showed me was definitely black. Trying to get some info on "black Pentair" equipment was even confusing me more.
Sta-Rite has a few products that are only Sta-Rite. Pentair has some products that are only Pentair. They share the heater, the controller and motor for VS and VF pumps,and most filters except the System 2s and 3s.
In terms of quality, they are the same high quality.

Over the past few generations, perceptions, attitudes, and behaviors related to aging have changed. While past generations adopted a more passive, less involved view of aging, NOW PEOPLE ARE TAKING A VERY ACTIVE, COMPLEX, AND DELIBERATE APPROACH TO ANTI-AGING.
The desire to retain a younger look and feel isn't restricted to an older generation. Modern men and women are making changes in their lifestyles to increase their life spans. They are beginning their skin care treatments at a YOUNGER AGE and are spending more time and money on PRODUCTS THAT MINIMZE THE SIGNS OF AGING. With younger consumers hoping to preserve their youth before the onset of aging, the consumer group for anti-aging products expands from middle-aged and older consumers to younger consumers between 26 to 38 years.
The trend in aging solutions, like cosmetic surgery, is also changing. People are shifting from difficult reconstructive procedures to delicate, less invasive options. While people today are happy to turn back the clock in terms of their attitude to their age, 80% of respondents said they would not consider cosmetic surgery when they're older, led by 86% of people in Asia-Pacific.
As the world population continues to grow, people around the world are getting older and living longer, creating a demand for products to make them feel healthier and look younger. "Old age" is being postponed in today's society, as many 50-64 year-olds are just as active (or more active) as many of their younger counterparts.
Beauty and Wellness Converge
Beauty is becoming an ageless concept. No longer just associated with image and fashion, beauty has become more about lifestyle and the way we feel about ourselves. People around the world are getting older and, thus, are more interested in PRODUCTS THAT MAKE THEM HEALTHIER AND APPEAR YOUNGER, REJUVENATED, AND ENERGETIC. They are adopting a more holistic approach to beauty where people manage their appearance with how they live. AS THE PERCENTAGE OF AGING CONSUMERS INCREASES, THE DEMAND FOR ANTI-AGING PRODUCTS AND SERVICES RISES.

Historical Traveler Reviews Adina Apartment Hotel Budapest
Amazingly spacious
What a great find! The apartment was really spacious with separate toilet, bathroom, kitchen, bedroom & living room. I would be happy to live here! Very clean with everything you would need (toaster etc). Staff were very friendly and helped with a couple of enquiries. Not too far by Metro into centre of Pest (took 6 mins approx). Highly recommended.
Superb hotel in Budapest
The Adina offers great value for money. We stayed in a one bedroom apartment which gave us so much more space than a hotel room. Full kitchen (even had a washer-dryer) and a good sized bathroom with fantastic shower!
The staff were extremely helpful and efficient - and the pool and fitness suite were a real bonus!
Good location - on a quiet side street but only a short walk to the metro which easily gets you round Budapest! Plenty restaurants and shops within a pleasant walking distance!
Would not hesitate to recommend the hotel to others!
A perfect launch pad for 2 days in Budapest
This is an excellent hotel and really good value, I would highly reccommend it. Everything is spotlessly clean and very modern. We booked a double 'apartment' - a large double room with a kitchenette in a wardrobe, don't be put off, its better than it sounds.
The pool/jacuzzi/sauna/steam room/gym was great, whoever paid for the design and build of this hotel clearly ticked all the 'very posh' boxes when they were with the architect.
The staff were also great - relaxed and professional; and the location is fine, about 15 minute walk into the very centre, 2 mins to the tube, the neighbourhood was very clean and quiet.
We went for a 2 night getaway and booked last minute, so I can't believe our luck at getting such a nice hotel.
The hotel used to be called 'The Sydney' until very recently, it seems to have been taken over by a small chain as there was an advert for a simlilar hotel in another city in the lobby, but this is no bad thing. The website I booked on has out of date photos making it look dowdy, when in reality it is light and airy with a lot of space.
If I go back to Budapest I will definetely stay here again.
Adina apart. hotel
The Adina apartment Hotel (use to be Sydney Hotel)
is just a dream which comes truth. The hotel is actually
a suite hotel. For a very reasonable price (via search
engine on the Internet) we got a beautiful suite includes
bedroom, living room (large sitting area with separate
dinning table), full-quipped kitchen (actually we could
prepare all our meals there, as it has also microwave,
toaster & many other basic equipments; but we prefered
dinning at the excellent restaurants of Budapest). The
suite was very comfortable & very clean & has very unique
design. Lots of space for all. There is even CD player.
We could totally relax.
There are also disadvantages - have a look continuance.
The bathroom includes both & shower & it's so clean & shiny
as it was just bought. The spa is a real complement to the
guests. It has a pretty swimming pool (but only 28 degrees
Celsius), jacuzzi, sauna & gym hall. Just the right things to
begin the day or closing it. Free excellent coffee at the lobby
all day long.
The Adina hotel is walking distance from large food
supermarket (which is open also on Sundays).
We have the feeling of great value for the money we paid.
No reason to pay much more for a central city hotel with
tiny rooms (like the Taverna hotel).
Easily accessible to the subway: within distance of 3 Metro
stations, you are in the City Center (the Budapest public
transportation has an excellent time table - you don't wait
more than few minutes for the next bus/subway/tram)
which makes life very comfortable. The Adina hotel is two
blocks from the Blue line/No. 3 Metro station.
From the Ferihegy airport of Budapest it's just about
40 minutes to the Adina hotel (the cheapest way:
bus no. 200 & then the Bleu line/no. 3 Metro). Don't change
more than couple of Dollars/Euro at the airport OTP Bank,
as the rate there is very bad. The best rate is by the city
center by "Northline" dealers. The cheapest way to travel
in the city & the serounding is by buying a Metro/Bus daily
ticket (we bought for 3 days in advance) at the first Metro
station. It gives you the opportunity to travel as much you
want 24 hours every day.
By the way, the best restaurant with reasonable price, is
"Nancsi Neni" which is about 25 minutes from city center.
The disadvantages of the Adina hotel:
1 The coerce for Internet access/wireless is quite expensive.
(the cheapest is by McDonald).
2 The Blue line/no. 3 Metro does not run after 11:00 P.M.
(walking to/from the center takes about 20 minutes.)
3 The bed mattress should be soon change for a soft one.
Too hard mattress for such luxury hotel.
4 The German language is not the strong one at the reception.
5 The cost of the breakfast is very high, especially as it is only "decent".
6 An iron is missing in the suite !
7 The signs getting & finding the hotel should be improved.
8 There is no complimentary newspaper.
CNN channel TV is not available.
We will return absolutely to this hotel.
All we emphasis is update to June 2006
Large nice rooms with good bath
It's a nice place, but I do have mixed feelings about it. Some rooms are large apartments and some studios, all with full kitchens. I felt the walls were a bit thin, but it's very clean and the beds are very nice with nice sheets. The staff is extremely courteous and helpful. Breakfast is decent. The gym is minimal. The pool and spa okay. The washer/dryer unit in the room didn't dry my clothes. Whether that's normal or not I don't know. My biggest issue is the location. The metro is only 2-3 blocks away, but it isn't convenient at night and there is a lack of restaurants nearby.
Great Place to stay in Budapest
My family and I stayed in a 2 bedroom apartment at the Sydney as were extremely pleased with our choice. THe apartment was spacious and clean and the full service was terrific. My husband went early for the buffet breakfast while we slept and he brought us cereal, eggs, meats and bread to enjoy in our kitchenette. There is a market nearby and we stocked up on late night snacks and ice creams.While not in the very center of town, the hotel is easily accessible to the subway lines,which are also easy to navigate. The staff was very hospitable and gracious and made excellent recommendations for us, and secured us tours and cabs as we needed. It is a 'business' hotel, but we found it to be quite enjoyable for recreation - my husband and kids loved the pool after a day of sightseeing. It was also great to be able to do some laundry right in our own apartment. The dryers didn't work so well, so we just hung everything overnight. I recently got an email saying the Sydney Apartments chain has changed its name (I am sorry, cannot remember to what). I have no doubt the accommodation and service will remain as we found it. It was worth the money, and for all that we got, a great value.
Luxury apartment in Budapest
I stayed in a two bedroom apartment at the Sydney Apartment Hotel with three girlfriends - we're quite fussy and we were all impressed with our room. The location is not the best (its a bit incongruous to its surroundings which are a bit run down) but we found it a reasonably central base from which to explore Budapest if you don't mind a bit of walking, and we didn't feel unsafe.
The first room we were offered was quite basic, but we managed to get a free upgrade to a much more modern and better equipped (though smaller) apartment, which is exactly as shown in the trendier shots on the website (go for deluxe - its definitely worth it). The apartment was plenty big enough for the four of us with all the facilities you could need (three TV's, dishwasher, washing machine, microwave, & two very nice bathrooms).
We didn't get to enjoy the gardens as it was snowy, but the jacuzzi, sauna and pool were lovely. Reception were also very helpful and spoke very good English.
All in all - highly recommended.
VERY comfortable and spacious for a family or group
While not in a tourist area, the Sydney is two blocks from the Blue Metro (from which we easily connected - but remember it doesn't run late at night) and near the massive and modern WestEnd Shopping Centre. (If you have teens or young adults, they'd love the shopping, bowling, cinema, and games facilities. There are several casinos for adults, and a huge food court.)
Our accomodation WAS an apartment - lots of space, a nice kitchen, a sitting area with a separate dining table, a washer and dryer. It provided plenty of room for the four of us; you could totally relax. (There is comfort in microwave popcorn after a long day of being a tourist.) There were two bedrooms, each with their own bathrooms. It would be great for temporary living arrangements. It was very clean, with some signs of wear. Our apartment had three balconies, although one view of the neighborhood wasn't all that scenic. There is no restaurant, but there are several nearby. We used none of the hotel's other facilities, though the pool looked nice - we were too busy playing tourist.)
My only complaint - the cost of the breakfast was so high that we went elsewhere. On the other hand, nearby was a large, modern, WONDERFUL food market (we bought salami, cheese, fruit, and baked goods). There is also a beautiful Catholic church a few blocks away.
We'd stay here again.
I loved it
My BF and I originally booked 3 nights with the NH Budapest, but NH was overbooked the first night so they put us at the Sydney Apartment Hotel. When we arrived at Sydney, we were stunned with its modern, sleek decor in the lobby and hall way. Some of the furniture were by Phillippe Starck. They gave us a 1-bedroom apartment, with a balcony, full-equiped kitchen, and a washer/dryer machine. It was about 700 sqf. We almost didn't want to leave.
Wish this hotel be all over the world!
My family of 5 parties stayed at this apartment hotel and loved it. Very modern and spacious. Clean, comfortable and had everything we needed to feel at home. Nice and simple decorated bedrooms, very clean bathrooms (like new), TV , Air Condition, a kitchen, balcony, washer and dryer. A garden and a swimming pool. Walking distance from a relatively big food market and a beautiful shopping mall. Walking distance from the subway station. Absolutely Great. I wish they had one of these everywhere in the world.
Sincerely, CCT

5 Claims, 7 Drawing Figures PATENTED FEB] 1 I975 SHEET 2 0F 2 FIG. 5
TOILET PAPER, PAPER. TOWELS, AND THE LIKE The present invention relates to a combination paper dispenser and. liquid or powder applicator for hygienic use and is a continuation-in-part of my co-pending U.S. Pat. application, Ser. No. 253,737, filed on May 16, 1972, now abandoned.
It is well known that the bidet is an accepted device for personal cleansing of rectal and genital areas. Although this type of facility is widely used in foreign countries, it has not gained any wide spread acceptance in the United States. Moreover, bidets are expensive to install, since it requires extensive plumbing connections. It is also known that it is difficult if not impossible to thoroughly cleanse the rectal and genital area of the human body without taking a shower or a bath with soap.
In view of the foregoing, the present device was developed which will permit the thorough cleansing of certain areas of the body whenever required.
It is an object of the present invention to provide an intimate personal cleansing device that can be either mounted on a bathroom wall, attached to the present toilet paper holder, or can be free standing in any suitable location in the bathroom.
It is another object of the present invention to provide an intimate personal cleansing device for rectal and genital areas of the human body wherein liquids or a powder may be selectively dispensed on the toilet paper by means of operating a valve which permits the dispensing material to be squirted or applied in small quantities on the desired area of the paper. Thus, the liquid or powder may be applied to the toilet paper when required and in the amounts deemed necessary.
It is a further object of th present invention to provide a specially constructed paper for the present dispenser which is provided with a moisture resistant backing material in order to prevent the paper from disintegrating during use because of excessive moisture.
A further object of the present invention is to provide a combination paper dispenser and liquid supply in a single throw-away housing, the liquid valve and dispensing tube being removably attached to the liquid supply but permanently fixed to the container supporting the combination.
Another object of the present invention is to provide at least two liquid supply receptacles positioned at opposite ends of the paper dispenser and valve operators for selectively dispensing either or both of the liquids from their respective receptacles.
-An object of the present invention is to provide a compact, portable decorative unit for housing the paper and liquid or powder dispenser. v
A further object of the present invention is to provide a cabinet with a liquid dispenser arrangement that has refillablebottles. The liquid can be a fluid spray, mist or foam, that is medicated or nonmedicated. In addition, the cabinet may contain a heating element for heating the liquids in the bottles.
The invention will now be more fully described with reference to the accompanying drawings wherein;
FIG. 1- is a perspective view of the combination liquid applicator and dispenser for toilet paper, or the like,
constructed in accordance with the teachings of the present invention;
FIG. 2 is a partly sectional and partly elevational view of the combined idspenser and liquid applicator for toilet paper showing the upper hinged lid in two positions;
FIG. 3 is another sectional view of the device shown in FIG. 1 showing certain details of construction and the lower hinged ooor in two positions;
FIG. 4 is a perspective view of a special lamina d toilet paper roll having a moisture resistant backing which is utilized in the present device;
FIG. 5 is another embodiment of the present invention shown in a front elevational view in which a combination paper dispenser and liquid applicator is mounted in a container having the valve and its dispenser tube fixed thereto;
FIG. 6 is a perspective view of the throw-away sheet paper dispenser and liquid supply receptacles, all packaged and replaceable as a single unit; and
FIG. 7 is a front elevational view of the combination throw-away package comprising a paper dispenser and liquid applicators.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION Referring to FIG. 1, a cabinet 10 is shown for application to a wall by means of screws (not shown) passing through the holes 12. It should be understood that his within the scope of the present invention to have the present combined dispenser and liquid applicator for toilet paper, or the like, constructed as a free standing unit having legs (not shown) or as an attachment to an existing toilet paper holder. The free standing construction results in a portable, compact unit that can be moved from bathroom to bathroom or from bathroom to bedroom for use in conjunction with a baby on a baby bassinett as needed. The cabinet 10 may be fabricated of plastic, metal, wood, or any other suitable material and is provided with downwardly projecting, de-
pending portions l0a on which is mounted a removable spindle 14 having a roll of paper 16. As seen in FIG. 4, the paper 16 is laminated to a moisture resistant backing layer 18, wuch as a water-soluble, wax-backed sheet.
The cabinet 10 is provided with an upper lid 20 hinged at 22 to the cabinet. As seen in FIG. 2, the lid 20 is in closed condition in the full line position, and in open condition in the dotted line position. The lid 20 additionally has apertures 24 and 26 through which the shafts 28 and 30 of pressing knobs 32 and 34 are adapted to pass. Surrounding the shafts 28 and 30 are helical compression springs 36 and 38.
The cabinet 10 is also provided with a lower door 40 that is pivoted on hinge 42 and has a finger hole 44 for manually opening the door 40 in order to remove the containers 46 for refilling purposes. The upper marginal edge of the door 40 is provided with a relatively sharp serrated metallic edge 41 for severing the paper 16 at the selected locations thereof. The containers 46 which are shown filled with liquid 48 may also be provided with a foam or a powder. Each of the containers 46 has push-actuated valve 50. As seen in FIG. 2, the left hand pressing knob 32 is depressed against the spring 36 thereby pushing the corresponding valve 50 downwardly and consequently dispensing liquid through the jet nozzle 50a onto the paper 16. The right hand pressing knob 34 is not pressed and thus, the corresponding right hand valve 50 is inactive.
As seen in FIGS. 2 and 3, the hooks 52 are connected to the rear wall 10b of thecabinet l and function as guides or holders for the jet nozzles 50a of the valves 50. A pair of spaced rods 54 is shown in FIG. 3 located adjacent to the path of movement of the paper 16 which prevents the movement of the containers 46 rearwardly into engagement with the paper 16. With regard to the latter, the smooth movement of the paper is ensured by means of rolls 56 and platform 58.
it should be apparent that the paper 16, when used, is drawn off the roll and passes over rolls 56 in the back of the cabinet 10. The paper 16 then is pulled over the platform 58 and under the jet nozzles 50a and finally out the opening 60 between the serrated edge 41 and the adjacent upper portion of the cabinet 10. The desired length of paper is pulled out of the opening 60 and torn off the remainder of the roll by an upward movement of the paper against the serrated edge 41.
It should also be noted that the containers 46 may contain the same or different substances. Thus, one container 46 may have a soapy liquid while the other container 46 may have a rinsing liquid. A medicated liquid, such as witch hazel, may also be used in container 46. A dry substance, such as medicated powder, can be used in a container, however, a different type of dispensing nozzle would be employed in that circumstance.
The use of a toilet paper 16 with the present device that has a moisture resistant backing l8 is especially desirable inasmuch as the liquid from the containers 46 that is applied to the paper will not penetrate through the entire paper and cause the same to shred or disintegrate upon use.
Although two containers 46 are illustrated in the drawings, it is to be understood that single container 46 may be utilized, or more than two containers 46 may be employed with the present device and the paper 16 may be rolls, sheets, or any type of suitable absorbent material that is ecologically suitable for toilet disposal.
It should be also apparent that the present device may dispense dry toilet paper in the normal manner when it is not desired to apply either liquid or powder selectively to the paper. I
Referring now to FIGS. and 6, the embodiment shown therein illustrates a container 62 preferably having an open front section and valve operators 66 and 68 hinged to the rear wall 70 of the container 62.
A combination paper dispenser and liquid supply package is removably supported in the container 62 and is referred to generally by the numeral 72. The paper supply 74 is located generally in the middle of the package while the liquid supply receptacles 76 and 78 are positioned on opposite ends of the paper supply. The receptacles 76 and 78 may take the form of bottles, plactic bags, or any other suitable vessel for storing and dispensing liquid or powders. It should be noted that the combination paper dispenser and liquid supply package 72 is expendable and is purchased with removable closures 80 and 82 for the respective liquid supply receptacles, as clearly seen in FIG. 6. The package 72 is then inserted in the container 62 and respective valves 84 and 86 are screwed on the threaded necks of receptacles 76 and 78, respectively. Each valve 84 and 86 is provided with flexible dispensing tubes 88 and 90, the ends of which are held in clamp holders 92 and 94 located on the inside of the top of the container 62. The container 62 may be secured to the wall, for example in the bathroom or kitchen, by any suitable fastening means.
The paper supply 74 may be in sheet or roll form, and the sheets may be individually pulled out or detached. Thereafter, the user may place the detached paper sheet under either or both of the openings 96 and 98 of the dispensing tubes 88 and 90 and depress the selected valve operators 66 and 68 and the selected liquid or powder will be dispensed in the amounts desired on the paper sheet.
As seen in FIG. 7, a combination throw-away pack age 72 is shown with closures and '82 for the liquid supply containers in thepackage. It will be apparent that this package can be easily inserted in the container 62 and rapidly removed when it is desired to replace the same.
What is claimed is:
l. A self-contained paper dispenser and flowable substance discharge device for selective application to said paper comprising: a cabinet provided with an interior access means, an expendable combination paper and flowable substance supply package, a valve and connected discharge conduit located inside of said cabinet, said valve being selectively attached to and removable from said flowable substance supply, a depressible manual operator in said cabinet, said conduit being positioned in said cabinet above and having a discharge end spaced from said manual operator whereby the users hand grasping the paper may be inserted in said space between the discharge conduit end and said manual operator in order to depress said manual operator for opening the valve and permitting the flow of the flowable substance through said discharge conduit to said paper.
2-. The combination as claimed in claim 1 wherein the discharge conduit is a flexible tube that is so located in the cabinet. that the user may depress the manual operator and discharge an amount of the substance on the paper with a single hand.
3. A self-contained paper dispenser and flowable substance dischargedevice as claimed in claim 1 wherein said interior access means is an open side of said cabinet.
.4. A self-contained paper dispenser and flowable substance discharge device as claimed in claim 1 wherein said manual operator is a plate that is hinged to the back of the cabinet and when the plate is depressed a portion of the undersurface of said plate engages the valve to open the same.
5. A self-contained paper dispenser and flowable substance discharge device as claimed in claim 1 further comprising a clamp on said cabinet for holding the free end of said discharge conduit in spaced relation above said manual operator.

I just read the thread about leaving a batch in a plastic primary which had some nice info in it, and I had a thought. Do the buckets keep the odor after a batch? I only did one batch in a bucket (the others have been in a Better Bottle) and I noticed a significant leftover odor. I did my best to clean it, but the odor remained.
Is that normal or maybe is my bucket not high enough grade? Does this affect the beer taste?
I assume this isn't really an issue based on how many experts here use a bucket, but I wasn't sure if it was normal or if maybe my bucket was poor quality.
normal they tend to take on odor and get stained from the wort.
'The taxpayer: That's someone who works for the federal government but doesn't have to take the civil service examination.'- Ronald Reagan
Buckets can take on odor and stain. Try saniclean from 5-star chemicals. I've had good luck getting the odor removed with that (not so much stains).
I've never noticed any bad flavors as a result of this, but it could affect flavor, I suppose. The effect would likely be minimal and how would you know if a flavor is from the current batch or leftover flavor from a previous one unless one of your previous batches had a real unusual ingredient?
I just brewed a very strong Christmas ale with a lot of spices in it (so good!). However, it left my primary with a very strong smell. While I soaked it with SanStar after the fermentation and before my next batch, it still has a strong smell.
Sampled the oatmeal stout that went into it and it had a slight spiced smell but the beer itself was stronger. I am sure if I brewed a mild or something it might have been more pronounced

I've never had a problem with odors, but I do have three fermenters and rarely use more than one at a time. I bleach them out after making wine or cider.
Remember one unassailable statistic, as explained by the late, great George Carlin: "Just think of how stupid the average person is, and then realize half of them are even stupider!"

I ferment solely in plastic buckets. The answer to the OP is.....NO. The bucket itself will become stained and have an odor of hops, but so does beer. I don't worry about it.

-A. E. Housman (18591936). A Shropshire Lad , 1896.
My bucket doesn't have much of a smell at all - maybe it's because I always give it an overnight oxiclean soak and then soak it in starsan too.
Would an overnight soak in bleach work, followed by a water soak?
To follow up my post regarding my situation, the reason I think I had a stronger aroma transfer was because I moved my christmas ale from the primary fermenter, gave it a was and sanitized it, then put my beer into it. So it had air for a matter of minutes. That might have helped.

Reasonably Priced 5ft Soaking Tub Recommendations?? Pic!
Hi all, we are thinking about putting a 5ft soaking tub into our new bathroom.
We are pretty limited on space, but don't want to give up a decent soaking level. We had a tub we really liked in our previous bathroom, but I can't remember what it was. :(
We would like something reaonably sturdy that won't buckle under pressure, but I think we would be most comfortable spending $1000 or less if possible.
Any recommendations? Here's a pic of our old one if anyone can somehow identify it!
I think our Toto 1525 cast iron tubs cost less than $1000 each (we got them at Hardware-Design in Fairfield, NJ; bought all of our kitchen and bath fixtures there, so probably got a very good price at that point, but worth looking into). They are great 5' tubs.
Whatever you choose, I recommend that you swallow your pride or whatever and actually sit in it first. Maax makes some wonderfully engineered tubs -- our 66" Melodie is basically perfect *for my body*. Our DD's 60" Kohler Archer is perfect for hers. I tried the Totos but none of them were comfortable until I got to the 72", which we just couldn't make work. But cat_mom has my trust in her judgment, so I'm sure they work for her. It's all individual. One thing I wouldn't recommend is Americast tubs. I hear they don't last too long. Either acrylic or cast iron. HTH.

Well, FWIW, staceyneil has both an americast tub and the Kohler archer (acrylic). You can read her opinions on their relative merits are in this thread:

I think that rings a bell!! Thanks so much - we just loved that tub - we would go bigger if we had more space, but for a relatively big house, the master bathroom is very limited in size.
Thanks for the other recommendations - I will definitely look into them!
We were limited for space as well (and that's after stealing a foot of space from the hall bath and bedroom closet to make the MB a foot wider to allow for a tub, and just make it less tiny in gen'l). I would certainly enjoy having a longer tub for stretching out while soaking, but they wouldn't have worked in our bathrooms. Our tubs' shape/contours feel comfortable to me and to DH, and I am very, very happy we chose cast iron for the heat retention (DH stuffed insulation under/around them before closing up the floors and walls), and for the solid, sturdy feel underfoot (and under-tush!).
cat_mom, it should go without saying but I just thought I'd say it anyway : )
writersblock -- interesting that that's staceyneil's take on the two tubs -- I know acrylic can definitely scratch, but from other reviews on the web I've heard of a very short lifespan for the Americast (and some posts here back around '06 when we were doing our first bath). I kept trying to make it over in my head to be a smart choice but I couldn't. I would have felt really dumb if it had cracked in a year or two. Guess we'll track staceyneil's experience--don't know how much use it sees, but still it's a good data point to be getting.
We just bought an American Standard Princeton Americast tub. We needed something to fit in a preexisting space in a 1960 house (60" max). I just sat in it tonight - I am 5'5" can sit upright or recline a bit with legs outstretched and room to spare if you are taller. It is very sleek and plain, and on the lower side like a vintage cast iron tub. The Americast material is heavier and more solid than acrylic but lighter and easier to install than cast iron. It was very inexpensive and "in stock" at Lowes. But don't be put off by that, it feels like a solid vintage tub.
We use both tubs for showering every day. We installed curved crescent rod shower curtain rods in both bathrooms, and it really is nice and roomy in the tubs while showering (even in the MB, where the rod had to be installed slightly further in than preferred because of the rooms's space constraints).
DH and I both love showering in our tubs, and love having the added ability to soak in them before or after (or instead of) showering.
We are remodeling two bathrooms. Looked at the Princeton Americast (also at Lowe's) for our daughters' bath - it does feel like a solidly built tub. May, in the end, just refinish the turquoise tub that came with the house. It looks brand new but we don't care for the color.
For our master bath, we are looking for a freestanding, pedestal tub. Fell in love with a Victoria and Albert's tub at a local bath store but it is $$$$. Saw something similar online - made of a composite resin called Aquastone. Price is much less than the V&A tub and it is only available online (can't sit in it before ordering!). Have any of you heard of the manufacturer - the Aquatica group? Or this material? Could only find a few reviews online (which makes me rather nervous!)
