2nd set of Prelims-addition to log cabin
I'd appreciate any feedback on my plan. I worked directly off the feedback I received here from my first plan. We are a family of 4 with a dog. Kids ages 4 and 7 (1boy/1girl). We use the back door for guests so the side friends porch will be the greeting area.
This is much better! I like it.
The 2 suggestions I have are:
make your side porch less shallow so you can widen the entry into the LR (right now, when a guest enters, it would be tempting to walk straight down the bedroom hall--all the door/hallways are the same size. But, if you enlarge the entry to the kitchen (which takes away wall space) or LR, then people'd be more likely to gravitate to the side.
And, of course, make sure you end up withOUT an inswing door on your MB WC.
Thank you! If I made the kid's hallway only 3' instead of 4' would it make any difference in the feel? I wanted the side entry to also serve as a dining porch but I think it may already be too small for that and a clear pathway to the door. If I make it smaller I'll just do a couple of adirondack chairs.
I was going to eliminate the corner in the kitchen and make it a full glass door for serving and light.
Yes, I'll change the MB WC door:)
I like this plan too but it's mostly mine so I welcome the approval as well as any room for impovements! The lockers will probably have to be moved due to structural support for the existing home and the WC there is where my electrical panel is so that bath needs reconfiguring.
Should I include a dining area or omit it (apporox 100sq/ft) since I have island seating?
Thanks again Kirkhall!
I would suggest, for an outside eating area, to consider a little space on your screened porch off the FR.
As for the dining area--only you can say how your family eats. The island wouldn't be enough for my family (or probably most families) because we eat together and there are more than 3 of us. And, it is so informal, and you aren't facing each other...so no, just the island wouldn't be sufficient for me.
Tell me more about the sliding glass doors you mentioned in the kitchen for light. I am not sure what you mean/where you mean.
I was thinking, you might be able to do a built in nook/bench seat along the right wall between the FR and Kitchen and put a table there... But you might have counter there (it is a little hard to see).
Also, are the lockers part of that kid hallway? That might also entice people to move that direction. I think I'd forgo the thought of using the side porch for casual seating/dining and make a better functional entry there (find a spot for your lockers there, perhaps). Unless your lockers will have cabinet fronts on them to make them look more like built-ins.
Just some thoughts.
On the dining area, I think we need one but it is a consideration on cutting costs. I'm going to keep it for now and get the bid with it since I think it would work well for our family.
On the kitchen- I hate the corner (dead end) space and would rather a standard full glass (36" door there if we keep it as dining porch and entry. The opportunity costs of this is the lack of pantry and lockers at the entryway I'm thinking I could do a small one instead of the windows on either side of the glass doors; one for pantry, the other for guest coats. I'm wanting open lockers for now (probably IKEA's) since I might want to door them later if the visual of all the bags/coats drives me crazy.
Here's the side elevation (driveway side).
Rear elevation:
The link contains pics of my current home. Any advice is appreciated. I appreciate your assistance.
Here is a link that might be useful: Current home pics
Sorry, side elevation.
I'm having some trouble reconciling your elevation and your floorplan--specifically in that porch area--and I worry your porch will be filled with snow/rain (I'm not liking the runoff here...) Is your porch covered (like I assumed in your drawing) or is it open?
How is your precipitation like in your area, I don't remember.
Porch is covered and screened as is the patio. We are in SC it only snows on Christmas day:) We do get rain. I was thinking about this earlier though large gutters would be ok, none are on the elevation sketches though. Here's the rear in case you see anything wonky. I appreciate your feedback Kirkhall.
I am still looking at making the porch less deep or fixing the side entry issue with no closet and the laundry would only have a small pantry with this layout.
Okay. I have a thought.
As nice as it is to have a walk through laundry, you really don't need it. and you are losing a lot of space to that second door (probably the master side door).
I'd close that wall off. Turn your folding counter to where the door was, and put in a small pantry cabinet in the corner (between W and folding counter, accessed from kitchen side).
That gets you a larger pantry which you have mentioned many times.
I'm needing 1' more of laundryroom width for a decent pantry use as is. I do love the easy access to the kids rooms as they are still small.
What if I added the 36' door instead of the double entry and did a locker area on the exterior wall or a butler pantry? Too odd to walk through such and informal area or OK since my home is so rustic and casual?
1. Should I remove the door in the boy's room on the front side to eliminate a passthrough room?
2. Should I remove the wall in the playroom to open it up or leave it for a bedroom use possible or rec are once they outgrow the playarea?
Kirkhall, thank you sincerely for all your assistance.
Another idea
Would it be too far away to put your son in the "playroom" and have the passthru room be the playroom? Then, they each kind of get their own bath too. (you could really give them their own baths if you swapped the laundry and the other bathroom and let there be a bath off the girl's room.
The larger laundry could be a mud/laundry or removed pantry/laundry space.
The playroom is too small for a an older child's bedroom (it's currently my daughters and we make do but if I made it the boy's room I'd have to make my daughters the same size (to be fair) it's only 9 1/2 X 11 so it'll make an ok office or guest bed if anyone in the family is in need of home care in the future...just enough room for the bed but not much else. Yes, so wish the front room was the larger one. I'm good with them using the same bathroom.
After mulling it over I'm keeping the door and wall as I can always change it later (contractor said it's cheap work).
The MB/Bath seem a little luxurious/large to me I think I could cut it down to MB 15 X 14 and be fine on the bath just a standard tub not a garden and no door on the WC since it seems quite private with the head on entry and and exterior door might hide the window.
On the other plan the shared bath was the mud laundry and pantry but I feel like it's too removed for use as a pantry. Maybe it just seems like it because everything is so close now...
On the pantry-I don't have ovens-just the stove/oven combo so I could make that left side cabinetry pantry and dishware floor to ceiling and use a step stool.
Oh my gosh Kirkhall, I was right there with you until the "KWIM?" I had to look it up, lol.
Yes, we tried this scenario and it requires another half bath in addition to the plan we had. Plus the low window and strange door transition made it right off the entry door. But I appreciate your thinking.
I really think I like this plan best but, I have to change the configuration of the new hall bath as the electrical panel is where the toilet goes. I think that the recessed lockers is a bit too structurally adventurous on the current home so it'll be a 36" door and just wall.
I'd like to get an additional 1' of laundry width (for a pantry).
I think the MB/Bath and Bedroom is a bit large.
The fireplaces are going to be bid out but they will be the first to go if we are over budget. We have one woodburning in the living room.
I *think* I'll open the entry to the living room to 6' (instead of the 4' on the plan).
Kirkhall, thanks for taking the time and effort with me, I'm thinking everyone else is either feasting on leftovers or gave up on me coming up with a workable plan:) In either case, I appreciate you.
At this point the old kitchen (new bath in hall) is the only portion of the old house that I want to alter.
The only way fro the "girls' room" to the playroom seems top be either through the "boys' room" or the long way through the house.
This is conflict waiting to happen.
Swap the rooms so the playroom is in the middle, with access from both bedrooms.
Thanks lazygardens, I know I'm asking for trouble but the size of the smaller bedroom is far too small for a decent bedroom. I was going to wall the door to my son's room but it would make for a convient bathroom trip to an almost dedicated bathroom for him. I appreciate your comment.
I need to shave off some sq footage. Here are my thoughts:
Smaller Mbath/closet and shaving 1' down the left side MB and Child's room.
Can anyone help me with tightening up the side entry to include mud room, pantry and possibly create a booth or window seat area with dining table.
We are limited on adding to the right any further (driveway). The existing structure is a log home.
I'm trying to do from top to bottom: living room, kitchen an dining or just kitchen, dining then the vaulted living room (existing home). Thank you for any suggestions and assistance.
Here is a link that might be useful: Existing structure
I'm afraid the image you have posted is too small for me to make sense of. If you have photoshop, you try taking the original image and cropping out all the excess white areas and then enlarging the remaining image by 2.5 to 3 times. Then try posting that.
I was thinking if I can shave/ tighten the side entry I could put the bath between the rooms. I agree, also I'd like a second window in the girls room. I also worry that the 33' is not enough for kitchen dining room and living combo and feel like it might be cramped. Thanks for the observation peege.
what is your reason for shaving off sq ft? Budget or something else?
If budget, maybe you can shave off some other things such as finishes and the outdoor areas such as fireplace etc. Maybe wait to do the screen parts of the porches. Ie get the shell good and add over time the missing elements. Don't do some of the window seats now, but have the space for them etc.
Check with the builder on various things you could do to the shape too to save money. Would removing some of the jogs in the foundation help etc assuming it is the budget.
Hey Lyfia, Yes, budget and I want this to be a forever home so not too large but, with 2 kids we need more space. We are waiting on foundation stone, it will be just block. Also waiting on bench seating, finishing laundry room myself, and. Furniture:). We are doing hardieboard, metal roofing, granite,...
I'd also like a pantry or butler's pantry between the kitchen and vaulted front family room if our dining is also there.

This application is a division of application Ser. No. 612, 568 filed May 21, 1984.
Our present invention relates to a device for measuring the size of easily deformable objects, and, more particularly, to a caliper-type instrument having a pair of relatively movable sensing arms between which the object is engaged and an indicator for signaling the distance between the sensing ends of these arms. The invention is especially intended to measure the size of such highly deformable objects such as a body of tumor tissue.
The measurement of size of rigid objects with screw-type micrometers, pivotal caliper devices and sliding calipers is relatively simple since the degree of contact with the object can be readily determined by the user with some experience and utilizing the touch sensation only.
For yieldable objects such as foam material, rubber or elastomeric materials, the results of such measurements are highly dependent upon the force with which the caliper members bear upon the object. In these cases and in the measurement of tissue thicknesses, especially tumor tissue size, the variations in measurement can be comparatively large because of the sensitivity of the object to compression. The calipers utilized for this purpose in the past have included sensing arms which were urged against the tissue by the hand of the surgeon or a helper. When various individuals attempt to take the measurement, a variety of results generally will be obtained.
It is, therefore, the principal object of the present invention to provide an improved device for measuring the size of soft compressible objects such as bodies of tumor tissue whereby the disadvantages of such earlier systems can be overcome.
Another object of this invention is to provide a tumor measuring caliper which can provide highly accurate results and which has largely excluded subjective effects upon the measurements.
Still another object of the invention is to provide a measuring caliper of the type described which can be utilized with comparatively soft materials and whereby a given measurement pressure can be assured so that reproducible measurement operations can be effected.
These objects and others, which will become apparent hereinafter, are attained in accordance with the present invention in a device for measuring the size of easily deformable objects, especially tumors or other animal tissue, having a pair of relatively displaceable arms with object-contacting ends whose spacing displayed or indicated upon a scale to which these arms are coupled. For the purpose of this coupling, one of these arms may be fixed to the scale bed while the other of the arms is movable relative to the fixed arm and operates the movable member of the scale.
According to the present invention, the contact ends of the arms are each provided with a respective contact plate and the contact plate is displaceable relative to the respective end of the arm against the force of a spring which acts upon the plate to resist this displacement. The arms are provided with means for indicating or establishing a fixed pressure of each plate, this means including, for example, a detent, lock or like device for fixing the contact pressure and/or a signaling device capable of generating an output when the desired measurement pressure is achieved and/or a display directly reading in terms of contact pressure
Through the use of this display, signaling device and/or detent or locking system, the measurement can be read from the scale as soon as the desired measurement force or pressure is generated by the plate against the tissue and hence between the end of the arm and the plate carried thereby.
According to a feature of the invention, the contact plate is carried by a rod or shank which is slidable in the end of the respective arm and against which the spring is seated, this rod carrying an indicator whose position with respect to a scale can display a measurement or parameter proportional to the contact pressure so that the attainment of the desired contact force can be ascertained.
Specifically, an elongated slot can be formed in the respective end of the arm and can be traversed by a pin transverse to the rod whose end is notched or otherwise provided with an indicating symbol cooperating with a scale formed on the arm along one side or flank of the slot.
In addition or alternatively, the rod can be provided with an electrical contact or circuit which triggers a signal through an appropriate circuit as an indicator to the user that the desired pressing force has been reached.
According to another feature of the invention, each sensing arm can be provided with a slidable rod or bar thereon upon which the contact plate is mounted, a biasing coil spring, and means for coupling the plate to the rod when the desired pressing force (and degree of compression of the spring) is achieved. The rod or slider can be provided with a restoring spring urging the slider into its position of maximum plate separation.
The spring which yields as the pressing force increases can be provided, according to the invention, with an adjustable seat, the position of which can vary the desired measurement force. In addition or alternatively, a form-fitting lock or detent can be provided to lock the sensing arm and the contact plate rod or slider.
According to another feature of the invention, the form-locking detent comprises a pawl mechanism which engages a lever connected with the end of the force-generating spring and which engages at the selected degree of coupling of this spring in a tooth or notch formed by a rack or a detent pinion which can be connected with the face.
Since the pressure sensitive detent engagement of the sensing arm should allow a fine distinction between points of engagement over the entire measurement range, preferably the detent includes a detent pinion which restricts the movement of the sensing arm and especially can be fixed to the indicator rod of a dial indicator fixedly connected to the sensing arm. The detent mechanism embraces a rotatable pivot lever journaled in the housing and, with the aid of a compression-spring-actuated lever or ratchet, causes the pawl to engage in the detent wheel or pinion.
To this end, the lever can have a longitudinal groove in which a pin of the lever sits, the tilting plate of the lever and the ratchet being then perpendicular to one another.
The desired measuring force is especially selectable by an appropriately adjustable pre-compression of the spring against its seat and advantageously the spring and detent mechanism are located within the scale housing which is preferably a dial indicator housing so that dust and contaminants are prevented from interacting with them.
The above and other objects, features, and advantages of the present invention will become more readily apparent from the following description, reference being made to the accompanying drawing in which:
FIG. 1 is an elevational view of a caliper-like thickness measuring instrument according to the invention;
FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view taken along the lines II--II of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a detailed view representing an axial section through the free end of one of the measuring arms showing the contact plate and its slidable support rod;
FIG. 4 is a view generally in the direction of the arrow IV illustrating a force-level indicator for the contact plate;
FIG. 5 is a partial section through a sliding caliper embodiment of the invention;
FIG. 6 is a view generally in the direction of the arrow VI--VI of FIG. 5;
FIG. 7 is a view of another sliding caliper embodying the invention and shown in partial cross section;
FIG. 8 is a partial section through another embodiment of the invention utilizing a dial indicator displaced by a rack;
FIG. 9 is a sectional view through another embodiment of the instrument utilizing principles similar to those of FIG. 8 and in which at the desired measurement pressure the coupling of a pawl and ratchet or detent wheel is effected; and
FIG. 10 is a cross section taken along the line X--X of FIG. 9.
As can be seen from FIGS. 1 and 2, the caliper of the invention can comprise a pair of sensing arms which are relatively movable and one of which can be fixed to the housing 6 of an indicator unit, while the other is connected to the gearing or other internal mechanism of this indicator which can have indicating hands 6a for displaying the spacing between the free ends of these arms 1 and 2. Since the construction of the dial indicator 6, 6a is well known in the art, no separate description thereof is required herein. The dial indicator 6, 6a, of course, can be provided with any desired scale in any desired measurement system for displaying the measurement.
The free ends of the arms 1 and 2 are provided with contact plates between which the tissue is engaged by finger rings 7 and 8 so as to enable the surgeon or a surgical attendant to draw the arms 1 and 2 together after the thumb and index finger have been inserted into the rings.
It will be apparent that the measurement displayed on the scale is a function of the pressure with which the tissue is engaged by the contact plates 3 and 4. To ensure that the measurement will be reproducible or in accord with a standard, one or both of the contact plates can be provided at the end of a rod 10 (see FIG. 3) guided in the sleeve 11 via the bushing 11a at the free end of the arm (e.g. arm 1). The rod 10 has a shoulder 10a against which a spring 9 rests, the spring 9 being adjustably seated (by the screw 13) in the sleeve 11. The screw 13 also forms a guide for the shank of this rod. Thus, the force of the spring 9 can be adjusted.
The rod 10 is provided with a pin 12 which projects through slot 11b and along a flank where a scale 11' is provided, e.g. by engraving or embossing. This scale can be provided as a Vernier Scale and can cooperate with indicia of the pin 12. In this case, the indicia is represented as a notch 12' (see FIG. 4).
Utilizing the indicator formed at 11', 12', the operator can determine the exact contact pressure for a given reading of the scale 6, 6a upon which the measurement is taken.
Instead of the simple visual signal provided by the scale 11', 12', or in addition thereto, a switch or linear potentiometer 1" can be mounted on the device to respond to the position of the rod or spindle 10 and can be connected to an electronic circuit 11"'. The means 11" and 11"' forms an electronic contact or circuit system which can provide an optical or acoustical signal when the appropriate contact pressure is reached so that the reading may be taken and can in addition provide an automatic registration of the measured value at appropriate contact pressure.
The circuit can work into a memory or electronic storage which can form a mean value of a measurement, the latter being modified by an error value which can be calculated from any excess contact pressure or contact pressure deficiencies.
The calipers described hereinafter can likewise be provided with such circuitry.
The requisite contact pressure at the instant of reading can be easily varied via the thimble 13 and hence the change in spring pressure.
The embodiment of FIGS. 5 and 6 operates in accordance with the slide-caliper principle. In this embodiment, a stirrup 14 which is only partially shown in FIG. 5 and is more completely shown in FIG. 7, is provided with a slide rod 15 which is shiftable relative to a fixed arm 2 and its contact plate 3. The slide rod 15 is displaceable by a finger ring 8 relative to another finger ring 7 fixed at an upper projection 2a upon which a conventional dial indicator 6 is mounted. The spindle 17 of the dial indicator 6 is threaded at its lower end and receives a nut or thimble 23 against which a spring 9 bears. This coil spring surrounds the spindle 17 and is seated against an angle bracket 22 fixed to the bar 15 and traversed by the spindle 17. A restoring spring 16 engages the rod 15 at one end and is anchored at its opposite end as shown in FIG. 7.
The other contact plate 4 is extended through a slot 18 in the rod 15. The orientation of the indicator 6 in line with the measurement region has been found to simplify the reading of the measurement and to improve the measuring comfort.
The contact plate 4 abuts the spindle 17 and is formed at its extension with a link rod 20 disposed in a groove 19 which opens, in turn, into the channel 19a in which the rod 15 is guided.
The link 20 is pivotally connected to a wedge or pawl 21 which is also rotatably or pivotally connected to the slide 15.
Upon relative movement of the contact plate 4 and the slide 15 in a sense tending to rotate the pawl 21 counterclockwise, the pawl lodges in the bottom of the groove 19 and prevents further downward displacement of the slide 15 and hence compression of the tissue received between the contact plates 3 and 4.
Using the finger rings 7 and 8, the contact plates 3 and 4 are brought against the tumor tissue whose thickness is to be measured and the tissue tends to urge the contact plate 4 upwardly relative to the slide 15 and thereby blocking further compression. In this case, therefore, the contact pressure at measurement is established by a locking of the contact plate and the locked measurement can be read directly from the dial indicator. The thimble 23 allows adjustment of the spring pressure of spring 9 by which the contact plate 4 is supported against the slide 15.
In FIG. 7, while a similar principle applies, the spring 9 is provided between a thimble 23 threaded onto the slide 15 and a sleeve 4a carrying the contact plate 4 and shiftable along the slide 15 while being connected via the link 20 to the swingable pawl 16. In this embodiment the finger ring 8 (not seen) can be connected to the portion of the slider 15 which projects below the stirrup 14. One of the advantages of this embodiment over the embodiments of FIGS. 5 and 6 is that the spring 9 and the thimble 23 are removed from the measurement region and hence the space between the contact plate is fully available for such measurement.
While in the embodiments of FIGS. 5-7 the yieldable contact plate is provided on the movable sensing arm, it should be understood that such yieldable contact plates can be provided on both sensing arms and that the yieldable plate can be provided on the fixed sensing arm.
FIG. 8 shows an embodiment of the invention utilizing a caliper arrangement having a fixed sensing arm 101 and a respective contact plate 103. In this case, the movable contact plate 104 is provided upon a spindle 102 which is connected by a rack and pinion arrangement shown only diagrammatically at 105a with the indicator needle of the dial indicator 105. The latter is mounted in a cut-out 105b of the caliper frame 105c which can have a handle 105d adapted to be gripped by the user. A thumb plate 105e is mounted upon an actuating rod 109 so that the latter can be pressed downwardly in the measurement operation.
The dial indicator is also equipped with a rack 111 which is engaged by a pawl or lever 107 fulcrumed on the rod 109 in a recess in the latter, this pawl being biased in the clockwise sense by a compression spring 108 resting against a seat 110 of the actuating arm 109. A pin 106 fixed at the spindle 103 engages a cut-out of the lever 107.
With increasing pressure against the object to be measured and thus with increasing resistance to further displacement of the contact plate 104, the spring 108 is further compressed and the lever 107 is caused to engage the rack 111. Upon engagement of the lever 107 with the rack 111, further displacement in the rod 102 of the rod 109 is blocked and, correspondingly, displacement of the rod 102 is blocked. This lock is released automatically when the device is removed from the object and the counterpressure of the object against the contact plate 104 is removed.
In the embodiment of FIGS. 9 and 10, the locking mechanism is also effected by a pivotal lever 112 and a locking lever 113 which cooperates with a ratchet wheel 114.
The indicator housing 115 is formed with the guide sleeves 116 and 116', the former carrying a spindle 118 forming a rack 117 of a length sufficient for the entire range of the measurement This rack engages a pinion 120 which can be coupled to the indicator arrow or hand to display the measurement on a scale not shown and centered on the axis of the pinion 120.
The actuatable rod 119, which has a thumb plate 121 enabling its displacement in the manner described, e.g. in connection with FIG. 8, has a measuring-force adjusting screw 122 which adjusts the position of a seat for the compression spring 124 which surrounds the spring-guiding rod 123 in this actuator. The spring 124 bears against a tiltable lever 112 to bias it in the clockwise sense. The tilting lever 112 transfers force via the coupling pin 125 to the slider 118.
When the resistance is such that the preset contact pressure is exceeded, lever 112 is swung in the clockwise sense so as to bring the ratchet lever 113 with its ratchet tooth 126 into engagement with the ratchet wheel 114. The engaging effects of the tooth and the wheel lie perpendicular to the direction of displacement of the members 118 and 119 so that a self-blocking of further movements occurs and is maintained as long as the pressing force is applied
The horizontal left shank of the lever 112 tends to move upwardly and its vertical shank with the entrained pin 127 to the left. The entrainment pin 127 travels during the entire length in a measurement stroke in a groove 128 of the ratchet lever 113 and thus insures that the tilting of the lever 112 will effect the aforementioned movement of the lever 113 to the left.
This leftward movement of the lever 113 brings the tooth 126 into engagement with the ratchet wheel 114 which is mounted on the pinion 120 so that the entire assembly is form-locked against further movement. This locking is maintained as long as the applied force is greater than the preset measurement force and is released when the thumb pressure on plate 121 is released. Upon release of the pressing force, spring 124 retains the lever 112 in the counter-clockwise sense and swings the lever 113 into its starting position. A restoring spring (not shown) can return the members 118 and 119 to their original starting position as well.

Great Experience!
We spent four nights at Albyn Townhouse and it was a real pleasure! All was perfect: a beautiful room, clean and cosy, the owners so kind as all the people working at Albyn, the breakfast was just delicious. We won't hesitate to come back here again if we come back to Edimburg! Thank you for all.
That was my first trip to Edinburgh and an amazing experience! Would love to thank each and everyone in Albyn Townhouse for making my stay so comfortable and delightful!
I will definitely come again.
It was only one-night stay in Albyn Townhouse on by business trip, but not the last one surely, if I ever happen to visit Edinburgh again :-). The owners are so kind, helpful and lovely people, the room I got was nice, clean and tidy with huge and comfortable bed and the breakfast was really, really good..., one of the best omelette I've ever had :-). Most importantly though, you feel a bit home, unlike the big hotel chains... Well done Lydie & David.
A lovely warm welcome! Friendly staff, great food, fantastic warm rooms! Would 100% stay here again!
What a treasure to find a comfortable, friendly and unique B&B such as the Albyn Townhouse. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay - snuggly beds, beautifully decorated rooms and a delicious breakfast (my husband thought it was the best he's ever had!).
We shall certainly be back to stay again. Thank you so much!
Warm welcome, very friendly, great room, lovely breakfast excellent local restaurant recommendations. Would stay again
Lovely townhouse
Everything about our stay was excellent. Lovely, comfortable room, delicious choice of breakfasts and very welcoming hosts. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Albyn Townhouse highly and will certainly return next time we visit Edinburgh.
A warm welcome; a superb room; delicious and imaginative breakfasts. Why stay in a five star hotel when you can get better at Albyntownhouse!
We had a lovely stay at Albyn! Warm, cosy and spacious room with a spotless clean ensuite bathroom, it was a pleasure to come back at the end of the day :) nice neighbourhood with plenty of cute shops and cafes, and easily reachable from the centre too. We would definitely come back!
Lovely,lovely lovely
This was a repeat February half term stay at the Albyn and like our first stay last year everything was spot on and an absolutely delightful stay was enjoyed.
On this occasion we stayed three nights and before leaving have booked again for next year......yes it is that good !!!!
The very warm,personable and guest friendly David and Lydie and their team provide an excellent welcome and base in the fashionable area of Bruntsfield/Morningside.
Their gorgeously decorated and presented Victorian Town House with Lydie's French touch throughout, is located at the end of a very quiet residential close just off the main Bruntsfield thoroughfare where there are lots of lovely cafes/restaurants and quirky shops.
There is some direct parking at the front which is perhaps limited to a few cars so would advise guests check availability/advice beforehand if travelling by car.
Add to this you are only a relatively short walk [ 20 mins across the picturesque Bruntsfield Links ] to Princess Street and other Edinburgh sights.
On this occasion we stayed in rooms 5 and 7 both of which give some partial view of Edinburgh Castle....would suggest all rooms are equally great and spotlessly clean.
The hot/cold scrummy choices for breakfasts all tempt the taste buds....certainly plenty there for even the biggest appetites , make sure you try Lydie's home-made rhubarb compote and her lemon curd ,both are brilliant.
During our three night stay we where waited on by the lovely Ines who greeted us each morning with the warmest and welcoming Spanish smile and provided us with exemplary service.
Well done David and Lydie, you give your guests exceptional staying service and value for money,can't praise enough and we have no hesitation in recommending to other would be guests ,would give you ten stars if could....already looking forward to our next years stay in February 2016.
Une arrivée surprenante au bout d'une ruelle. Et là, surprise, un petit coin de paradis aussi typique qu'on peut l'imaginer à Edimbourg.
Un accueil plus que chaleureux et une chambre magnifique.
Cela vaut bien un minimum de 5 étoiles...
When i pulled up to the guest house with a cab i was thinking London B&B. When i got inside the decor was so nice, the room was warm and inviting and you could tell and extra amount of care had been given to the room. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who was planning a long stay it was fantastic.
This is the third time in a year that we have stayed at Albyn, and we got the expected warm welcome from Lydie, David and the staff.
The room was good, and the breakfast excellent.
Highly recommended as before, and we hope to return before too long.
Our third stay at Albyn in a year, and it was as good as before. There was the usual warm welcome from Lydie, David and the staff, the room was fine and breakfast excellent.
Highly recommended and we hope to come again.
Very pleasant & welcoming place to stay and have already recommended to friends and family. Extremely good value for money, spotlessly clean and comfortable.
Gold stars!
Everything about this guest house ticked the boxes. Welcoming, quirky decor, cosy, comfortable with thoughtful touches. Fantastic breakfast and vegetarians and vegans well catered for. The location is also perfect, with good bus services at either end of Viewforth, and within walking distance of the city. Quiet area but lots of great restaurants and coffee shops very near.
Nice rooms and vegan breakfast
I stayed in this lovely B&B for a few night in different rooms, and all were cosy and clean. I chose this place because of the offered vegan breakfast and it was worth it!
Gem of a place
Tucked away down a side street, this is a gem of a place. The friendly welcome and lovely room still didn't quite prepare us for the exuberance of the dining room and breakfast. Best coffee I've had in any B&B / Hotel, and the chive pancake with scrambled egg and melted cheese was a delight.
The best!
A wonderful stay!
The owners and staff are so nice and helpful! We got a map whit drawings that helped us find our way around Edinburgh.
The rooms are wonderfully decorated and clean and frech. Breakfast is homemade and we loved it.
It's a 15-20 minutes walk from city centre but it's worth every minute and you get to se allot. Do you really want to experience Edinburgh than this is the place to stay. We will definitely come back!
This is one of the most beautiful hotels we have ever stayed in. The interior gives you a sense of being at home and at ease, whilst still offering all the things you expect from a hotel these days.
The room was superb, nice and warm and always beautifully serviced every day. Small chalk signs around the hotel keep you informed of the weather forecast, the breakfast times (around events such as Hogmanay) and anything else you could need.
WiFi was great, and the breakfast was also superb. The selection on offer was fantastic (although I just kept going back for more of "The Scottish" breakfast!
Couldn't recommend it enough and will definitely be staying there again as we felt truly at home.
december 6-9 2014
we stayed at the albyn for 3 nights for our 30th anniversary , Lydie was the perfect host , we chose room 7 as that was our wedding day , the room was very spacious & absolutely spotless ,all the staff were very friendly & helpfull , breakfast was spot on & there was a great selection , my wife especially liked Lydie`s home made jams & cakes ,we have passed on the hotel details to all our friends & will defo be staying there again in the future . many thanks to Lydie & David & all the staff
An Amazing weekend
Just got back from an amazing weekend in Edinburgh , from the very warm welcome from David on arrival , to the lovely room and great breakfast the whole stay was fantastic , can not recommend the Albyn Townhouse highly enough .
When can we move in?
We absolutely LOVED our stay at the Albyn Townhouse. Our only regret is that we did not have more time. Lydie was lovely and SO helpful when it came to suggesting places to see, grab a drink, or have a good meal. The townhouse itself is beautiful and so well kept. Breakfast, which was included, was also delicious. If ever we return to Edinburgh, we will be sure to book our stay at Albyn Townhouse again!
Thank you Lydie and David for a wonderful stay. We couldn't think of a better way to celebrate our engagement (:
Great stay!
We spent one night at the Albyn Townhouse in 2012 and we loved its friendly and warm atmosphere so much that we decided to head there for our second stay in Edinburgh. This time we traveled with our baby, and Lydie made sure that everything was perfectly arranged for our little one. Both Lydie and David were extremely helpful and determined to make our stay at the Albyn Townhouse the best experience in Edinburgh...and I can honestly say it was! The staff are welcoming, friendly and smiley. This is definitely the place to be in Edinburgh!
Wonderful stay
This was our second stay with Lydie and David. We found the Albyn Townhouse in 2012 by chance, and we loved the friendly and cozy atmosphere so much that we decided to head there for our second stay in Edinburgh, this time with our baby. Everything was perfect, from the lovely family room and baby facilities that Lydie arranged for us, to the support provided with any question about Edinburgh attractions. Most of all, it really felt like home! Thank you for another great stay :)
Irene, Pierre and Chloé
spectaculaire Stay!
Hotels are nice, you normally never think twice, this house is amazing, this is different, you will fall in love, you will delay because all you want to do is stay!
A true beautiful home away from home where you are truly looked after and cared for like family.
I will not stay anywhere else in Edinburgh ever again. xx
Appy Guests
THis was out first stay but it won't be our last ..I'm not surprised that so many people return. The house itself is beautifully decorated, ideally located and well equipped. Breakfast was great..the homemade touches brought well above the ordinary and it was great to see veggies catered for without a fuss.But as readers may have already gathered, its the owners David and Lydie are what really make this place. They are so friendly and genuine that it really does feel like staying with friends.
The photos of the place were nice but don't do it justice.
Wouldn't stay anywhere else when I visit Edinburgh
Another great stay at Albyn Townhouse.
I have stayed with Lydie and David a number of times, and I am prone to say I do not usually write reviews, unless somewhere or something is consistently good or bad.
Lydie and David are fantastic hosts and are very friendly, helpful, and kind. The "devil is in the detail", Lydie and David nail it every time, in every respect. They are just so good at what they do, and it always to the same exacting standard. People who have not found this wonderful B&B just do not know what they are missing.
Please don't tell too many people about the best place in Edinburgh if not the whole of Scotland, because otherwise they will be so booked up I'll never get to stay again. Seriously do book well in advance, because one or two other people know about this little gem.
Excellent 3 night stay - could not be better. Very cosy atmosphere - staff extremely friendly and helpful. Breakfast excellent and of good quality. Bedroom clean and very comfortable. Restaurant recommendations first class. Difficult to find fault. No hesitation in staying there in future. Highly recommended.
A massive thank you for making our stay in Edinburgh perfect. From the moment we rang the doorbell to the day of departure, we felt like we were 'old friends' as we were made to feel so welcome. A big thank you once again to Lydie, David and the rest of the team.

Lovely Overnight Stay
Travelling alone on business I stayed in room number 9. The room was warm and cosy with a large bed and a nice on suite. The whole place is decorated beautifully and is spotlessly clean. There are lots of choices for an evening meal nearby and a variety of shops should you need to purchase anything. Breakfast was served as requested and very enjoyable. I will certainly book to stay again when back in the area on business. Staff are very friendly and the place is very well run.
Our favourite Edinburgh B&B
Our 4th (or was it our 5th?) stay at Albyn Townhouse and David and Lydie were as welcoming as ever. The rooms are beautifully decorated and very comfortable. The cul-de-sac is very quiet yet the house is only minutes from great cafes and restaurants. Location is brilliant - only 20 mins walk to Haymarket station, or 2 mins to the bus stop for buses into the city centre, about 5-10 mins away. Would recommend this B&B highly and have already booked another stay next summer!
Another lovely stay
This is the third time we have stayed at Albyn Townhouse. The welcome is warm, the rooms are comfortable and the breakfasts are delicious. It is also good value.
As well as being in a good location to visit the centre, the local shops are restaurants are very good.
Friendly, welcoming, & very comfortable B&B
I spent four nights at the Albyn Town House with my 10 year old son. I chose it based on the excellent reviews I had read on line, and was not disappointed.
Lydie and David the owners of Albyn Townhouse were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and made us feel very much at home, and were on hand to give help and advice. David and Lydie have clearly lavished a lot of love on the property, to bring it up to a very high standard. We had a lovely, beautifully decorated, spacious twin bedroom, with very comfortable beds. The B&B is in a very quiet location, so a good nights sleep is guaranteed. The breakfasts are superb, with a wide choice of things to chose from.
The B&B is within walking distance of the centre of Edinburgh - depending on what part of the city you are heading to, it takes around 25 to 40 minutes to reach the city centre on foot. It is an easy and pleasant walk into the city centre. If you prefer you can travel to the centre by bus, the B&B is only a few minutes walk from the nearest bus stop, with buses running throughout the day into Edinburgh.
Albyn Townhouse fully deserves the man excellent reviews it receives. If you are looking for a good, quiet place to stay in Edinburgh, close to the city centre, then I'd highly recommend Albyn Townhouse.
What a place!
We adored everything about the Albyn Townhouse - the way Lydie and co. made us feel truly welcome from the moment we arrived, the delicious breakfasts (you're in for a treat if you're vegetarian/vegan!) and, of course, meeting Maya the Basset hound! A truly unique place in the best possible way. Lydie's personality really shines through. The place is packed with homely personal touches , though not at the expense of the hotel's elegance. A gorgeous place in a lovely part of Edinburgh. Thanks for a memorable weekend. We would fully recommend the Albyn Townhouse to anyone visiting Edinburgh - we can't wait to return!
Dear Lydie and David,
My parents, my wife and me had a wonderful stay at your guesthouse. The rooms are really lovely decorated and clean and we felt comfortable the moment we arrived. Both of you and all your staff are so incredibly nice and helpful. I think in most of the reviews it is mentioned, but still I need to point out how delicious the breakfast is, just perfect! Last but not least, it was also a pleasure meeting your cute Basset Hound :)
Thank you for making our visit to Edinburgh so nice!
All the best!
Fab place to stay!
Lydie - you and your team were very welcoming! Your B&B is fantastic, very homely, warm and inviting. We loved our room, with the view over the sea and Edinburgh and your breakfast set us up for the day - too much to eat really! It is walking distance distance to the town/city centre approx 30 mins - and being able to park was a huge bonus for us as well. All in all a wonderful experience - well done!
Charming Victorian
The Albyn Townhouse is run like a well oiled machine without losing the personal touch and charm that one expects to find in a B&B/Guesthouse. Lydie and David were personable and helpful. They were there to provide anything we needed yet gave us the privacy we wanted. The house itself is a beautiful old Victorian. Having parking available was convenient. Breakfasts were delicious. All in all, I wouldn't stay anywhere else in Edinburgh. Thank you so much, Lydie and David.
Thank you for all your help!
We love it!
This is our first experience at B&B. My husband and I love to travel and we normally stayed in a hotel. Our daughter recommend B&Bs, so we decided to give it a try.
We will be looking for more"Albyn Houses" .
Everyone from Lydie, David and the rest of the team. Excellent job!
Excellent B&B
My wife and I spent four nights at Albyn Townhouse and found the Establishment, Management and Staff to be well above the excellency expected of a four-star B&B.
The location is in a quiet neighborhood, 2 block walk to major bus stops with ready access to all of Edinburgh and many local restaurants that Lydie can suggest.
Our room was spotlessly clean, tidied daily and well appointed.
Breakfast options are many, varied and delicious. With numerous dietary concerns addressed and available.
We can easily and honestly state that Albyn Townhouse is one of the nicest Guest Houses we have stayed in the last five years. We would certainly stay at Albyn next time we are in Edinburgh and recommend it to any of our friends.
wonderful find!
What a fabulous B&B! We loved our spacious room with a king size bed, sitting area and charming décor. The breakfasts were far and away the best we had in Scotland. The location was perfect--walking distance to Edinburgh center through a lovely park with several good restaurants just a few blocks away. Lydie is warm, welcoming, enthusiastic--treats guests like family. Book a room now!
Very nice. Friendly and helpful. The best during our trip. The only b and b to have spare adapters.
We would definitely stay again.
Thank you
We enjoyed our stay with you so much. You and your staff are outstanding having never stayed at a B&B before I didn't know what to expect and you have convinced me that they are the way to go. I especially thank you for helping to find Martin's Guesthouse for our return to Edinburgh it was a great place to stay and by you going the extra mile to help us out you saved us some unneeded stress in having to find a place during what was already a busy week for us. The food was great, the company even better thank you so much. Hopefully we will be able to stay with you again sometime. Jay Holloway. (Denise at Martin's Guesthouse was great too thanks again)
Thank you!!
Lyddie and the crew at Albyn Townhouse,
Thanks our trip to Scotland was wonderful and our stay in your guest house was fabulous. I have to say that I thought that everything about our stay was wonderful. The room was well designed an comfortable. The staff was helpful and friendly. I loved the information and the availability to answer questions about how to get around, where to go and helping us to feel welcome. I really appreciated the help in giving us a referral for the next week as we didn't have accommodations set and you were full.
The food was excellent at breakfast! The parking was a nice bonus for our rental car. The neighborhood was quiet and picture perfect.
Thank you for making our trip a wonderful memory,
Vicki Holloway.
Response: Hello Vicky, thank you so much for your heart warming notes, we have been overwhelmed by how lovely your comments were!
it was a pleasure to have you stay with us and thank you again so much, we hope to see you again one day.
Warm regards. Lydie & the Albyn team x
The Albyn Townhouse is a really charming B'n'B. The interior was selected lovely and everytime you go up the stairs there is something new to discover. The room was romantic and we were able to see the edinburgh castle from up there. The Breakfast was a great experience as well. You could choose from vanilla pancakes to mushroom omlette. It was just perfect. If we visit Edinburgh again, this will be our first choice!
Response: Thank you so much for your note, it is so lovely of you. we are glad that you had a great time in Edinburgh & staying with us
First class in everything. Make you feel at home. Accommodation and food and hosts of course are brilliant
Absolutely first class service, warm and inviting room with great facilties. Friendly service with a personal touch and I have to mention the amazing bacon sourced from a local farmer for breakfast. Great location, charming property and parking also available, will definately be staying here again next time I'm in Edinburgh!
Wonderful guest rooms and delicious Breakfast. Lydie is very helpful and hospitable..a nice park within walking distance...avoid the busy street....Amazing B&B...
Simplement excellent! ¡Sencillamente excelente!
Simplement excellent dans tous les sens: accueill chaleureux, chambre spacieuse et très jolie, petit déjeuné délicieux et à 20mn à pied du centre ville.
Très envie d'y revenir.
Sencillamente excelente en todos los sentidos: acogida muy cordial, habitación espaciosa y muy bonita, desayuno delicioso y a 20mn andando del centro ciudad.

Grazie Lydie
We stayed four days at Albyn house and we felt like home: Lydie and David are really very kind and friendly. Lovely room and great breakfast in this amazing B&B.
Every time fantastic!
Lovely rooms, delicious breakfast, hospitable owners...it was just as perfect as 4 years ago!
Excellent stay at the Albyn Townhouse
Great stay at the Albyn, more 'Boutique Hotel' than typical Guest House, Great Location, Great Room, Great Food, Great Service, what more can I say!
helpfull and very kind
We had a very nice time at your house with our little twin girls. Lydie knew what we needed and helped us out for dinner when we came back from town earlier than estimated because of the heavy rain. We thank you for your hospitality!
Seems like coming home
We were here in 2011 on our Scotland tour, and we came back with some friends for a city-visit to Edinburgh. Lydie and David gave us a welcome out of heaven. The place looks even nicer than three years ago, and rooms and breakfast are superb. We stayed here four nights, and we felt very much like home. Never say never, so maybe we'll see you again some time.
That very warm welcome from Lydie (Nudel), the wonderful styled house and rooms and one of the best breakfasts during our week in scotland made us a short but amazing stay we wont forget. If we ever come back to Edinburgh this will be our preferred venue. Thank you!
Amazing hospitality, awesome breakfast, beautifully renovated Victorian house
Thank you Lydie for the warm welcome. A beautifully renovated Victorian home with charm yet modern touches, great breakfast, attention to details, very calm, close to transportation.

Removal MFH Cabinets
Theresa0218June 2, 2014
I am trying to figure out how to move a long Pantry MFH cabinet over an inch or so. I bought a new refrigerator and it is to wide by an inch. It is also 3/4 inch to tall for the shelf that runs from one cabinet to another, it is a decorative shelf. I love the refrigerator so the cabinet has to be moved.

Saturday, 25 October 2014
This is an excerpt from an article by Peter Staley that first appeared on POZ.com here.
Compare and contrast: Ebola vs. AIDS, Obama vs. Reagan. Anyone who continues to defend President Reagan's response to AIDS is ignoring a history of gross negligence compared with the response to other disease outbreaks in the U.S.
Here's the first time President Obama's press secretary was asked about Ebola, on July 30, 2014. Ebola had yet to reach U.S. shores, but two Christian aid workers from America had become infected in Liberia.
Q: Is the President being briefed on the Ebola outbreak in Africa? And will it be addressed at the Africa summit and/or alter the Africa summit in any way?
MR. SCHULTZ: Yes, we continue -- well, no, it will not alter the summit, but we do continue to monitor the outbreak of the Ebola virus in Guinea, in Liberia, Sierra Leone and Nigeria closely. The President is indeed receiving regular updates, including speaking with his Homeland Security and Counterterrorism Advisor Lisa Monaco as early as yesterday before departing Washington.
The U.S. government, including the Departments of State, Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control, USAID and the Department of Defense, continue to provide a range of support and assistance to those countries and multinational organizations responding to the outbreak.
This includes the provision of personal protective equipment and other essential supplies, public health messaging and technical expertise. We've actually been engaged in this outbreak since March.
The press waited until Oct. 15 , 1982 -- 17 months after the first reported AIDS cases -- to ask President Reagan's press secretary about the "gay plague." By that time, there had been 593 reported cases in the U.S., and 243 deaths.
Q: Larry, does the President have any reaction to the announcement -- the Centers for Disease Control in Atlanta, that AIDS is now an epidemic and have over 600 cases?

A nutjob huh? As a strong 2A supporter you may want to go back and LISTEN to what that man had to say. He was hands down the best pick of the litter we were given.....LIGHT YEARS ahead of Romney. Romney was a joke, plain and simple. Nuff of election 2012
And why do you ASSume that I didnt vote? The 3rd party is the only one that matters anymore.
Racist writer Ron Paul, who lies that he was drafted into the airforce (twice?) and quit the Republican Party to fight Ronald Reagan, kept the money from his2008 conpaign to hire his friends and family in his Campaign for Liberty scam. And the potheadsfollowed.
Then he announced he was retiring, oh, except, first he was running for President and illegaly hired the same people for his conjob 2012 conpaign funded by Money Bombs he was still soliciting after Romney won the primary!
He is a crazy old Texas conman cult leader. IMO.
Cmon guys. Ron isn't THAT crazy....
While I'm on a roll....figured this will lighten the political mood in here. NOW we're talkin crazy!

Day 21 - a Teotihuacan experience
Today we took a guided tour from our hostel to the Teotihuacan (pronounced teo-t-wick-an) ruins- which date back to around 100AD. Before we headed out there, we first stopped at Tlatelolco, an Aztec site, which dates to around the 1300s but was buried when the spanish gained control of Mexico. The site we were at was sacred ground- and you could see the walls outlining the area, temple steps, platforms, bathing areas (kinda like a sauna today) and skeletons of what is believed ...

The food in schleussenkrug might be my favorite hearty and healthy food in Berlin. The salads are amazing! The service is always super friendly too. Couldn't ask for more!
3 Days in Berlin
Museum Guide for Berlin
Best Food in Berlin
We had a fabulous breakfast here while visiting Berlin on a very cold weekend! it set us up for the day. The Schleusenkrug is attractively located in the Tiergarten near the 16Juni strasse, convenient for the Sunday flea market.
I like this place at the beginning of Tiergarten for a drink. I never tried for food. May be I will for an "Imbiss" the german fast food
In the beautiful Tiergarten, friendly, good food and beer reasonably priced. We left feeling very chilled (relaxed, not cold).
Stopped here with Fat Tyre bike ride and it was lovely hidden spot in the middle of Tiergarten. Fantastic sausages in a roll (spicy) from the bbq and great beer beside the water. Really enjoyed this. Lots of outside seating made this an ideal spot.
This place is definitely hidden within the park and if it wasn't for the tour guide that i was on i definitely wouldn't have discovered it. The food was good as well as the pricing not so bad and the beer even better. Being that the restaurant is in the middle of the park that atmosphere is great and calm....
We have been here a few times. The food is of the pub grub variety, reasonably priced and tasty.
Outside has a great atmosphere and have to love the chandeliers
Stopped off here on a bike tour with "fat tire bike tours" lovely place! Had something to eat from the BBQ was really nice! Cheap and cheerful. Busy and scenic. Lovely little gem nestled in the Tiergarten. Had about an hour long break here the beer was good! I was quite wary about getting back on my bike! Great place...
Your experience at Schleusenkrug may well depend on the time and season of your visit. During the summer, after about 6:30, it becomes very busy and some diners may not like the thought of picking up their food at a window and then sharing a table with other diners. But if you just give in and understand this is how...
I went here with a bunch of friends. I loved the huge selection of unique beers I had never seen before. They had several flavored beers served in cool mugs. I usually stay away from flavored beers, finding it to syrupy, but this beer was great! Still tasted like beer but had a kick of fruit to it. You can...

This sounds very meh to me. I mean I love the Record of Agarest War series (for concept more than anything else, although I will call 2 a good game), but most of the rest of the stuff Idea Factory comes out with ranges from meh to crap imo. I mostly get their stuff to support NISA (who I love). If they drop NISA I really am not sure I will be bothering to get their stuff anymore beyond any currently unannounced Record of Agarest War stuff.
I actually think Idea Factory have really improved recently. They always had interesting ideas but unlike similar developers like STING, executed them horribly.

This edition of NetSpeak profiles a few more tools/services that could boost the productivity of an on-line analyst/researcher.
While travelling we often stumble on a good newspaper or magazine article. If you find one such piece interesting and desire to take a copy of it, the best option these days is to take a snapshot of it with your mobile camera.
In this regard, the mobile phone camera acts as a scanner. Now, if you wish to convert this camera text image into normal editable text, the software TopOCR (http://www.topocr.com/) could come in handy. This free software lets you easily convert any text image into a normal text file — you just need to make it accessible to TopOCR. When you start TopOCR, it displays two windows side-by-side — one for the image file and other for the OCR text output. Once you are satisfied with the text output, TopOCR allows you to save it as a PDF or HTML file. In addition, using the program's text-to-speech feature one can convert the OCR text output to an MP3 audio file. Of course, this feature can be used to create audio from any text file — just load the text file into the TopOCR text window and press the TexToSpeech button.
Though many types of on-line backup services are in place, the kind of solution offered by Dropbox (discussed earlier in this column — http://www.hindu.com/2008 /09/22/stories/200809225 2931700.htm) continues to enthral savvy netizens. Besides automatically uploading files/folders kept on a specified folder in the desktop on to its server, Dropbox can sync those files/folders across multiple machines too. Now, if your storage requirements exceed Dropbox's 2GB limit or you wish to have a 'plan B', a Dropbox-type backup/syncing solution, take a look at the service offered by IDriveSync (http://www.IDriveSync.com/). This service allows you to store your files/folders on its server and transfer them automatically to multiple PCs (the storage space is limited to 2GB for free users). To use the service, you need to create an account. To help you easily download/upload/ the files/folders and sync/share them across multiple machines, IDriveSync provides a client-software too.
After installing the client, assign a desktop folder to it and log-in to the system. Once the IDriveSync setup is ready, you can simply forget about the backing up process. Whenever you wish to keep a file on-line, just place it on the IDrive folder — the IDriveSync client working in the background will come active and immediately transfer the file to its server. IDrivesync can be accessed via Windows Explorer too. This means you can upload any file/folder on your desktop by just right-clicking on it and selecting the 'IDriveSync' option from the menu that pops-up.
Now, if you wish to transfer your files in the IDrive server to another PC, just install IDriveSync on the second PC and log-in to your account — the files from the server will start flowing to the IDrive folder of the new machine.
Enso TeX Anywhere
Enso (http://www.humanized.com/) is a program launcher that lets you accomplish many different tasks without having to move away from the current application. For instance, while composing an article you can invoke a Google search on a selected word or do a simple computation without interrupting the current workflow. Once installed on your system, Enso works in the background and you can invoke it anytime by pressing the 'CapsLock' key. To accomplish a specific task, invoke Enso and type in the command relevant to it. For instance, while composing an article on Word, if you need to do a simple calculation, (say, 123*453) just type in the formula (like this: '123*453'), select it, invoke Enso and enter the command 'calculate'.
Though Enso is a slightly old program, which is now free/open-source (http://www.ensowiki.com/wiki/index.php), it has some innovative and valuable components in its bundle. Enso TeX Anywhere (http://www.humanized.com/enso/beta/ensotex anywhere/), is one such tool worth discussion.
Creating a mathematical formula or a complex equation in common word processing packages like MS-Word is generally considered a difficult task.
To get around this issue many use the type setting language TeX (http://www.hindu.com/thehindu/biz/2002/ 09/23/stories/20020923000 40200.htm), which helps us generate complex equations/formulae with simple text commands (example: TeX command 'A\subset B' will generate the set expression ' '). However, a large majority of users may not have the patience and inclination to learn TeX or install the TeX software. This is the context in which Enso's 'TeX Anywhere' comes in handy. The advantage of 'TeX Anywhere' is that it helps us enter simple TeX commands in Word or a similar application and render it into corresponding formula/equation. For instance, the Tex command ' \pi\over2' will be rendered as ' '; '\sqrt{x+2}' will be rendered as ' '. Likewise, the TeX command '\sum_{i=1}ˆN x_I' will be rendered as ' '. To create a mathematical equation using this facility in MS-Word, first type in the TeX command for this equation and then select it. Now, invoke Enso launcher (by pressing the 'CapsLock' key) and enter the command 'render tex'— at this point the Tex command will be replaced by the corresponding equation. TeX Anywhere uses a web service to convert a Tex command into an equation — this means we need to be on-line for this tool to work.

Our best selling elbow compression strap. Provides relief of Tennis Elbow and Golfers Elbow symptoms in over 80% of cases.
One size fits most. 20-35.5cm (8-14'').
Research shows that this product relieves Tennis Elbow and Golfers Elbow symptoms in 80% of patients. The patented Aircast AirCell is positioned at the elbow, against the tendons that produce bending and extending movements of the wrist joint. The AirCell is held in place with a comfortable foam strap. This is custom fitted by the user by tightening a Velcro strap.
The resultant pressure is directed to the specific tendon region by the Aircast AirCell. This comfortable pressure limits the girth area of the affected tendon, thus reducing the force that is transmitted through the tendon. This 'off-loading' reduces the strain on the tendon and relieves the symptoms of Tennis Elbow (Lateral Epicondylitis) and Golfer's Elbow (Medial Epicondylitis).

Easy to adjust and put on and it's so comfortable to use, you forget it's there until you touch the air pocket. Great for use during activity such as running, golf or tennis and many other sports.
Highly recommended support.

A really good armband that relieves elbow pain. Works well during shopping and ironing.
Puchased this as I had trouble gripping my cricket bat after about 10 mins batting. After using the armband I found I could finish the season with only mild discomfort, could bat for about 45 mins if the opposition let me! Continued to wear it after the season finished and I haven't had the injury come back yet(touch wood), even after an extensive winter practice. Overall a really good product, the air bubble really does apply just the right amount of pressure to releive the symptoms of tennis elbow.
