Tablet. Hotels for Global Nomads
Travel Better.
237 Madison Avenue, New York City, NY, USA
Neighborhood: Manhattan - Midtown
Check availability as rates may vary for dates. Best rate guaranteed.
Located in the once-grand neighborhood of Murray Hill, next to what used to be J.P. Morgan's New York mansion, Morgans Hotel looks turn-of-the-century grand from the outside, with its Beaux-Arts limestone facade, but inside is smaller and less intimidating than the Morgans Hotel Group's other hotels. The lobby resembles a slightly updated but very tasteful mansion living room: leather armchairs, 1920s nickel lamps, and Parisian flea market cane tables. There's also an M.C. Escher carpet and Japanese paper screens; but the feeling is old-fashioned formal.
The rooms are stylish in a masculine way, but far from overwhelming. Bathrooms are modestly sized and tiled in black and white, while bedrooms are a calming caramel, ivory and pale gold. The fabrics provide an unexpected tingle — corduroy armchairs, suede banquettes and silk lampshades. There's even a cherrywood breakfast nook where you can nibble your croissant and scan Page Six.
Morgans Hotel is proud to count execs-on-the-run among its fashionable clientele: after all, the midtown location makes it a perfect base for business travelers. But with only four to five rooms per floor Morgans is more intimate than the average business hotel. While the service may not be the in-your-face convenience that most execs demand, the staffers always make you feel right at home. Morgans is perfect for those with a bit of patience, who want a taste of New York, an exceedingly handsome atmosphere, but with just a bit of nostalgia for what they've left behind.

- Stayed December 2013
- Rating: Fair
What I liked:
The design is very nice.
What the hotel could do better:
The rooms are noisy. You can hear the neighbor sneeze and talk on their phones. The doors into the room make a lot of noise when you are trying to sleep. Very noisy hotel without a restaurant or bar.
- Isabella
- Stayed November 2013
- Rating: Poor
What I liked:
Nice location, slightly off the midtown East corporate circuit
What the hotel could do better:
Rooms are worn and lack detailed cleaning/servicing.
- Jeffrey
- Stayed November 2013
- Rating: Fair
What I liked:
Best mid-town price for a last-minute booking.
What the hotel could do better:
Too many quirky design points in their effort to be cool. The light switches were mostly in-cord, for example, requiring you to get out of bed to turn on and off the bedside lamp. Light switch for the main room (this was a small suite) was almost impossible to find -- had to use the flashlight on my cell. Etc etc.

The WR after returning from Tunisia earlier this year:
Still in good condition (never raced or rallied, ahem):
As you will be aware if you've read the "lastminuteracingdotcom" thread, I built this bike in barely two weeks, and had to make one or two compromises before shipping it off to Tunisia...
Ideally I'd have liked to have got the seat reshaped and recovered (it is bloody uncomfortable stock!), and as mentioned above, the Flatland Racing bashplate hadn't arrived in time so I bodged my old XR650 bashplate on for the Tunisia round (it actually fitted very well, with only a couple of cuts to fit around the lower tank support brackets, and new holes drilled for the mounting brackets that clip over the frame rails).
The rear Safari Tank worked well (except the mounting bolts came loose, and the tank 'changed shape' in the heat, making it tricky to reattach), and doesn't impede access to the airbox - however, should you have to raise the rear subframe (to get access to the shock and carb for example), then there is more unbolting to be done... by doing away with the rear tank and having that extra fuel up front, the rear of the bike should be just like the enduro, and easier to work on...
I've also repainted the fairing plain white (for the moment, depending on sponsors x), and have bought a new front fender (KTM Adventure type on a Meca'system bracket, like I fitted to the Tenere) as I find it offers more tyre clearance and is more stable, due to the second set of mounting brackets behind the fork.
I hope to have some photos of the bike/new tanks to upload in the next couple of days - I'm off to the USA for 'training'* these next couple of weeks, and when I return the final prep will begin in ernest!
Toot toot!

Two years back, I bought myself a watch in the World of Disney shop. About a month ago, the strap snapped through wear and tare.
Having a few days off from work at last, I have tried to have the strap replaced but no one can do it for me....from a key cutting booth to jewellers.
Apparently the section which is normally pinned either side of the face is solid.
I love the watch and don't want to throw it out over a strap.
Do you think Disney themselves may help me?

Ya just never know, mate
It was a few days after Thanksgiving and my writing partner Eric Abrams and I were, once again, unemployed. We had just finished working as semi-low-level writers on a sitcom called "Union Square." Executive produced by the famed director James Burrows ("Cheers," "Friends," "Will & Grace," etc.) among others, it had been an NBC Thursday night show slotted between "Friends" and "Seinfeld." It couldn't miss.
Except, of course, it did. It was not a good show and I learned many lessons ...

Sony agrees to offer users free games and PS Plus subs as part of $15 million PSN hack settlement
Posted on July 24, 2014 AT 04:34am
Sony Computer Entertainment America has agreed to give away $15 million worth of content as compensation to U.S. users who were affected by the 2011 PlayStation Network hack.
The $15 million is an agreed settlement to a class action lawsuit (via: Polygon) brought against the company following the data breach, which resulted in the names, addresses, and credit card data in some cases of 77 million accounts being stolen. As a result of the hack, the network was down for several weeks. At the time Sony apologized and offered users a free game as compensation, but that wasn't enough for some who decided to file a class action lawsuit. The U.K. also fined Sony £250,000 for a "serious breach of the Data Protection Act."
OK, that's enough back story, you're probably more interested in the free stuff right? Well for a start this is only available to PSN users in the U.S. who were affected. If you held an active PSN account at any time to prior to May 15, 2011 and you live in the U.S. then you are eligible to claim.
There are two claim instances: The first is if you didn't pick a free game from the Welcome Back Pack offered in 2011. In this case you will able to pick two of the following: One free game from a list of 14 PS3 and PSP titles, three PS3 themes from a list of six, or three free months of PlayStation Plus. These will be offered on a first-come, first-served basis, up to an aggregate cap of $6 million. Once this cap is reached only one month of PS Plus can be claimed.
If you did claim your free Welcome Back game then you can only choose one of the above options. Again this is on a first-come, first-served basis, with the claim being reduced to a one-month PS Plus subscription after $4 million.
Qriocity account holders who didn't have an active PSN account will be entitled to one month of Music Unlimited, worth $4.99. While Sony Online Entertainment account holders are entitled to $4.50 worth of Station Cash.
Please note that all this is yet to be officially finalized, so things may change, and there is currently no way to make a claim.

In what is clearly the first of many to come intergovernmental agreements similar to the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Acct (FATCA) adopted by the U.S. in 2010, the governments of Switzerland and the United Kingdom entered into an agreement with features similar to FATCA provisions. According to Thomson Reuters Checkpoint the key elements of the Swiss-U.K. inter-governmental agreement are as follows:
"Pursuant to a tax cooperation agreement between Switzerland and the U.K. that entered into effect on January 1, Switzerland will withhold U.K. tax on the income of U.K. residents held in Swiss banks at the rate of 40 percent on dividends, 48-50 percent on interest, and 27 percent on capital gains. Additionally, a one time deduction of 21 to 41 percent tax will be applied to balances in Switzerland to settle potential past tax liabilities arising before 2013. Withholding will not apply to account holders who instruct the Swiss bank to disclose the account information to the U.K. tax authority. The agreement is similar to the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) Model II intergovernmental agreement in that Swiss banks would disclose information about U.K. account holders directly to the U.K. tax authorities. Swiss banks would also have to carry out the withholding of the U.K. tax on the accounts affected. "
The Swiss government is under significant pressure to strip Swiss banks of their ability to aid international tax evasion schemes. Many other governments are likely to face similar pressure from the global financial regulatory community which is acting in concert through the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). Depositors who have accounts in other "tax haven" jurisdictions will surely wake up to the fact that in the near future the shroud of secrecy that they relied upon could bury them in tax evasion criminal charges and/or civil tax fraud penalties from more than one jurisdiction. Take for example a dual citizen, someone who has citizenship in the U.K. and the U.S. and has undeclared accounts in Switzerland. That taxpayer may now face disclosure to the U.K. or U.S. first, and then based upon an already in place Intergovermental Agreement between the U.S. and the U.K. face prosecution in one or both countries.
The data tracking capabilities of the U.S. and other countries when fully deployed will surely make disclosure the best choice. There is still time to come forward and participate in the IRS Offshore Voluntary Disclosure Program (OVDP). But, as the certainty of discovery increases, the longevity of the OVDP may be in doubt.

Science Fiction & Fantasy movie directed by Andrew Niccol< read all 2 reviews
From the opening sequence, something is clearly amiss: I mean, extreme close-ups of exfoliated skin and toenail clippings, anyone?
Thereafter, things do not improve.
First off, the sci-fi premise is flimsy (it's a rap on the genetically programmed to be perfect humans vs. "human" humans debate: where "human" humans have become "invalid" citizens, electronically tagged and shut out mainstream society of perfectly engineered "valid" humans. But, you would think, if there is sufficient technology to eradicate human flaws at conception, then surely someone must clever enough to fix them later in life too, no?).
The special effects team (who, in fairness, didn't have much to do other than the aforementioned toenail clipping close-ups and the odd distant rocket launch) seem to have missed the last 35 years in development of special effects.
The brother vs. brother thread is schmaltz (the whole relationship can be summed up, apparently, by who was the better swimmer when they were boys), ... Good grief.
What else... oh yes, the lack of chemistry between Uma Thurman and Ethan Hawke beggars belief (Thurman looks continually as if the very sight of Hawke gives her the screaming heebie jeebies), and the thriller/whodunnit piece does not import a sense of drama into the proceedings. And boy does the film need it.
The only saving grace is Jude Law, who seems to make his living these days propping up dreadful films with solid performances (see A.I. and The Road To Perdition in this regard), and who at the critical moment in the film, performs a very deft ascent of a spiral staircase without using his legs.
That is to be commended, however bad the rest of the experience.

Time Traveling in the Weddings Section
Do they make 'em like they used to?
Was anyone else struck by this wedding announcement from yesterday's New York Times? Not just the two ostentatiously Jewish names—like the grandmother going over the plane crash victims in the Philip Roth story, many Scroll readers no doubt immediately scan the announcements to decide which ones are worth reading and which aren't. But the nuptials of Emily Rubinstein and Igor Zilberman feels almost anachronistic, carrying the whiff of a time when the Jewish-American dream was to come from a solidly middle-class outer-borough existence and become a doctor, and maybe do good to boot. Zilberman is a neurologist whose mother is a database administrator in Westchester and whose father works for the city in Brooklyn. Rubinstein is an epidemiologist who volunteers to fight AIDS; she hails from the Bronx; her father is a union lawyer, her mother a traffic violations judge.
I don't mean to oversell this: The bride and bridegroom attended Tufts and NYU, respectively; they didn't grow up speaking Yiddish on Hester Street. But one senses that nowadays it is more the children of these sort of Jews, now safely ensconced in the upper-middle-class and more likely to be pursuing a creative-class, less remunerative type of career (like, say, blogging for an online magazine), that you tend to see in the Weddings/Celebrations pages. (The wrinkle is that Zilberman was born in Ukraine: Perhaps Soviet Jews are today's equivalent of the "mainstream" Jews of 40 years ago?)
In the adorable accompanying video, Zilberman testifies that when he first laid eyes on his future bride—in Columbia's library, naturally—she struck him as "This cute—very studious—but very cute girl." Perfect. Mazel tov!

I used default_mon for testing because cur_mon wasn't pointing to the monitor I'd added fd sets to. I need to figure out why.Does it make sense to use default_mon here? After digging into this some more, I'm thinking it makes sense, and I'll explain why. It looks like cur_mon can't be used. cur_mon will point to the monitor object for the duration of a command, and be reset to old_mon (NULL in my case) after the command completes. qemu_open() and qemu_close() are frequently called long after a monitor command has come and gone, so cur_mon won't work. For example, drive_add will cause qemu_open() to be called, but after the command has completed, the file will keep getting opened/closed during normal QEMU operation. I'm not sure why, I've just noticed this behavior. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? It would require fd sets to be added to the default monitor only.I think we have two design options that would make sense: 1. Make the file descriptors global instead of per-monitor. Is there a reason why each monitor has its own set of fds? (Also I'm wondering if they survive a monitor disconnect this way?)
I'd prefer to have them associated with a monitor object so that we can more easily keep track of whether or not they're in use by a monitor connection.
2. Save a monitor reference with the fdset information.
Are you saying that each monitor would have the same copy of fdset information?
Allowing to send file descriptors on every monitor, but making only those of the default monitor actually usable, sounds like a bad choice to me.
What if we also allow them to be added only to the default monitor? -- Regards, Corey

The House on Wednesday passed a bill that would allow private-sector workers to convert their overtime pay into paid time off, so long as their employer agrees to the arrangement. The bill has been touted by House Republicans as a way to give workers more flexibility over their work schedules. Opponents of the bill say it could lead to employers discouraging workers from taking overtime pay.

Product Description
The series takes time out for silliness with "Cryptozoology," the arguably bogus "science" of studying (using no actual evidence) the likes of the Loch Ness Monster, Bigfoot, and every other mythical creature described through dubious eyewitness reports or blurry video. An especially funny episode, "Cryptozoology" follows the feckless wanderings of so-called experts who seem more adept at buying equipment than actually using it. An interesting change-of-pace is "Manners," in which the popular perception that Americans are more rude today than they were a century ago is attacked as ridiculous, given that people routinely urinated in the street at the end of the 19th century. An etiquette expert shows us which fork to use when eating a salad, but the overall idea here is that only a handful of manners are necessary for getting through life. Three other, very serious subjects are drenched in sarcasm. One is New York Citys inability to get it together on rebuilding the Ground Zero site. The episode tracks the many instances of overreaching and mishandling the delicate task, and finds that even a national tragedy doesnt mean the best intentions of government are free from screw-ups. In another episode about reparations, the question of whether America owes money to the descendants of African slaves and Indians is dissected with a wink. Penn and Teller also take on abstinence in a program that looks at whether sex education works, and wonder why it is that something that reduces stress and feels good the way sex does is so demonized. --Tom Keogh

The Impact of Big Data on Social Systems

Economists don't have the luxury of models that can predict behavior 100% of the time. People and organizations exhibit a high degree of variance. Plus the idea of conducting a financial crisis to understand how it works is not recommended. But Big Data tools have the potential to usher an information-based scientific revolution, writes Guest Contributor Irving Wladawsky-Berger. "Researchers in a number of fields are now conducting scientific experiments by analyzing large amounts of data in many cases where controlled experiments are not feasible," he writes.

The works of recently deceased Nobel Prize-winning economist Ronald Coase, who described firms as a "sociological problem, not an economic problem," have much to offer today's theoreticians and analysts, says Guest Columnist Irving Wladaswky-Berger. "We should study the behavior of people, families and organizations as they actually are in the real world and not as the elegant mathematical models they are not," he writes.
A new report from the U.S. intelligence community says digital technology is shaping four global megatrends, including individual empowerment and the rise of the middle class. Guest Columnist Irving Wladawsky-Berger says no one can say how these trends will play out, but that companies must understand the range of likely outcomes. "It is critical for companies to understand the nature of these inevitable long term changes, avoid being left behind by faster moving competitors, and figure out how to leverage these changes to grow their business around the world," he writes.

CIOs take note–businesses are spending more money than ever on technology, but less and less of that budget is going to traditional forms of IT, researcher Howard Rubin says. As a result of these shifts, companies are failing to leverage IT investments, which are falling in relation to the overall operating budget, he warns. That creates an opportunity for the CIO—or, perhaps a chief digitization officer—to make sure technology investments are creating value.
CIO Journal provides time-pressed CIOs with a definitive destination for the most relevant news and analysis, to help them connect the dots between technology trends and business strategy.

Love this little project with the tissue box for christmas decor. I make cards and have used panels of tissue boxes in place of design paper for decorating cards. Thank you so much for the inspiration.

I have had the privilege of having Dr. Nance take of care of me for all four of my pregnancies. He is a consummate professional and is excellent at what he does. He is caring and dedicated to his job and makes every patient feel important. He remembers my children's names, his office staff is wonderful and I never have to wait long before I am called back to a room. Most importantly, he strives to do all he can for his patients. I have had very difficult and stressful pregnancies that have required meeting with perinatologists, dealing with pre-term labor, extended bed rest, brief hospitalizations and many different medications. Dr. Nance was such a support to me when I faced such difficult and trying circumstances. I will forever be grateful to him for helping me get my children here safely. I would recommend him to anyone that lives in Utah. Thank you Dr. Nance for your service to me and my family.
Dr. Nance is a wonderful doctor. My husband and I are so grateful we chose him. The office workers are great too! They all took great care of me. The delivery could not have gone any smoother, he did a great job! He is very professional, efficient, knowledgable, and kind.
I would NEVER recommend this doctor. After laying in an extremely uncomfortable hospital bed all day it was finally time to deliver my baby. My bottom was already sore from the slab of concrete I was laying on. Then Dr. Nance told me to scoot down until my bottom was practically hanging off the bed. Then he told me I had to grab my knees and pull them up to my chest and push. It felt like I was balancing on a very sharp rock and I told him I just couldn't do that. His reply was, "Well, if that's your attitude, we'll just sit here and wait for the epidural to wear off." I couldn't believe ANYONE would say such an unprofessional, disparaging comment. I fired him on the spot and have never been back!
Dr. Nance is my hero. He helped me through a terrible miscarriage and treated me like a daughter through the entire ordeal. He is loving, kind and professional. His staff is EXCELLENT and full of smiles, optimism and knowledge. I would recommend Dr. Nance to ANYONE. I am happy to know and be medically supervised by such an individual.
Dr. Nance is a caring doctor who listens and cares about mothers intuition. I had pre-eclampsia with my first child and switched to him at 37 weeks. My blood pressure was so high that he admitted me to the hospital immediately and saved my life and my baby's life. His nurse Marilyn is smart and attentive and makes you feel important and loved. She pays attention to the tests that she is running (blood pressure). I have gone to Dr. Nance for my last 3 babies, an early miscarriage (9 weeks), and will deliver another child in a few months with him as my doctor. I highly recommend him. His staff is kind and fast. I have never had to wait more than 10 minutes to be taken back to the exam room.
He is the most wonderful ob/gyn! He has delivered my 2 boys and will be delivering my 3rd (girl). I have had some complications with my pregnancy and he is very caring. He doesn't make your feel stupied if you have any questions or concerns. His nurse Marilyn is very friendly and she makes you feel like you're the only person in the office. His front desk people (Susan, Leann, and Ruby) are always pleasant. I suggest anyone looking for a wonderful, caring doctor to pick there office to go to.
If you want a doctor that could care less about you then go to this one. My blood pressure was high and he could have cared less...didn't ask to see me sooner than the normal 4 weeks and by the time I got there I was sent to the hospital to deliver prematurly...He didn't care about my pain level during birth even though the epidural wasn't working...I can't think of one thing he did RIGHT!

From the article: Dogs Left In Cars - Risk of Heat Stroke on Warm Days
It might be easy to look the other way. Stay out of other people's business. The owner must be coming right back to the dog in the car, right? Maybe not. Just how hot is it in there? Studies have shown that even on a "cool" day of 82F, the temperature can reach 109F inside a closed car in minutes.
Each year, animals die in cars. If you saw an animal left unattended in a car, would you call for assistance? Have you helped animals in this way before? Viewers say yes - they have helped.
Please post your experiences and tips here then print out flyers and posters to help spread the word. You may save a life.
No need
- Leave your pet at home or prepare to have people address the situation. Today the weather was 80 degrees. I left my daughter in the car while I took out her stroller and the temperature in the car was already far too hot. This was after having the air on blast. I leave the grocery store and see a dog in a van, windows barely cracked, parked in the sun. I waited around until the owner came out because someone said they'd rather be talked to them have the police called on them. This guy was in my face in seconds. I just wanted to relay the stroller story and thus explain why I was concerned for the dog. Next time I'll just break your window, call the cops, and go about my business.
- —Guest Me
Back Off
- I appreciate those animal lovers looking out for the safety of dogs everywhere but do not jump to conclusions. Just because you walk into a parking lot and see a dog in a car on an 80 or 90 degree day does not mean that the owner has been gone for hours. I love my dogs and recently was called over the intercom of a grocery store for leaving my dogs in the car. I literally had been away from my car for 5 minutes and was checking out. People need to calm down. If you suspect a distressed dog, hangout for about 5 to 10 mins. See if the owners come back. Don't just immediately assume that the dog has been in the car for hours. Furthermore, I think many have lost sight that dogs are animals. They have not always had humans caring for them. What did the dogs do prior to having the luxury of air conditioning.
- —Guest DogsAreAnimals
- In Texas, it IS against the law to leave your pet inside a car with no a/c on when their is a certain heat index. CHECK THE HEALTH AND SAFETY CODE!! I get called often and make EVERY call. I have a laser thermometer and make several readings before I go into the store and start talking very loudly "who owns such and such vehicle". I have a zero tolerance and take this very seriously. Besides the tongue lashing you WILL get a citation and go see the judge! The fine is steep enough where you won't do it again. Thank god for people that care enough to report it to the authorities. These poor animals can't speak but I can and do!!! Please speak up when you see this and don't be embarrassed. It could be life or death for that poor animal that brings these ignorant people happiness!!!
- —Guest Animal Control Officer
Help, but CYA
- If the dog appeared to be in distress, I'd go to the nearest payphone (NOT use a cellphone), call the police, say I was breaking the window, do so, and leave.
- —Guest nitroglycol
Serious just calm down
- I was in Long Beach washington. It was 55 degrees out. We just got done running on the beach and the dogs just had water. I went to one of the gift shops in town for maybe 20 min and the windows were down a bit. Some crazy lady called the cops. It was not even close enough to be too hot for the dogs. The store worker and the cop both told me that it was silly the police were called. I got no ticket and no summons. In fact I was told by the police officer sorry I had to come out because I was called. I felt bad for him. He had so much better things to do. All that happened is I got a good laugh. The woman who called the police just wasted everyone's time. I am a huge animal lover. People need to calm down. I understand the concern but really? 55 degrees out and you call the police? Commen sence is seriously missing in far too many people today. I really hope that woman felt as stupid and silly and she made herself look. I don't know what is wrong with people today.

Don't jump to overreacting
- My dog goes everywhere with me, every day. To work, home, gas stations, stores, friends houses, family houses. After driving for 20 minutes with my A/C on full blast I stopped at the grocery store a few blocks from my house to run in and get exactly 3 items. Since it was freezing cold in my car, and having open windows would let in the warm, humid air quite quickly, I left the windows up to keep the cold in. When I came out, a man started yelling at me about leaving my dog in the car. I said I'd only been in there a few minutes, he argued that he'd been watching my car for "10-15 minutes", insulting me, saying he felt sorry for my dog and my intelligence. I believe he tried to call the cops and took my license plate number. After deducing the time when I got back to the car versus the time I got there, I can say that I was away from the vehicle for 7 minutes, and a cold can of soda in my car didn't have any condensation. My dog was great. Don't assume we are all animal abusers please.
- —Guest Mary
dogs dont sweat
- Any temperature w/ dog in car with windows down/orcracked can cause a dog to go into distress, panting not due to stress from being away from owner, maybe that too, but due to their inability to sweat and handle the increasing heat even with windows cracked or down a little. They get heart conditions. I wish I was exaggerating. The temperature goes up in the car, trunk even with windows cracked in 9 minutes 10 degrees. You don't have to believe me and there are people out there who will make up stories to try to get their point across. I wouldn't do that. An instrument, kid, and dog - in a car period not a good idea. I had a violin in a trunk for a few minutes in 58-60 degree weather with windows cracked and the violin was hot when I came back and strings were loosened. I left my violin my car with same condition and windows cracked and a string broke in 15 minutes. Haven't tried with dog/kid, a trained police officer on cool day cracked windows/for short time, dog died, true stoy
- —Guest barb
- You would leave your dog in a car, even for 5 minutes, even with the AC blasting? How about your child? Would you do that?! Don't you DARE say they are different, because they aren't. Animals are living beings with feelings just like ours. How about you sit in a hot car alone for 5 minutes, see how you like it. If you wouldn't leave your child in there, don't leave your animal.
- —Guest Psims
Police response was sad
- i paged a car owner for a dog in a vehicle with windows cracked and he claims water inside, temp outside was in 80s, car is full sun for 20 minutes that I was aware of. the owner eventually did respond to page and it was not pleasant. I called police and he said it was ok, no harm was done to the pet as long as windows were cracked. I showed him the data on email search contradicting, to no avail. The owner of the dog was quite satisfied with himself and this dog will be subjected to this again and again by the owners admission, just as in the past. Wasted my time.

Scared Mum
- You may feel that you are doing the right thing for your dogs by leaving them in a crate with the air conditioner running, water, etc. Have you ever considered that your vehicle or air conditioner malfunctions? This very thing happened to a police officer one summer day a few years ago. He left is car running with his dog inside his car. He went on a lunch break only to return to his vehicle to his dead dog. His air conditioner malfunctioned. There is no resposible way to leave your pet unattended in a vehicle in the summer. Leave your pet at home if you can't take it with you when you leave your vehicle. It's that simple people!!
- —Guest Kelley
Responsible pet owner
- I leave my dogs in my diesel truck in a crate with food and water and the air conditioner on, but I still have people who act like I am trying to kill my dogs. My dogs have the crate to protect them from accidentally turning off the truck or knocking it in gear, they have food and water so that they don't get dehydrated or hungry, and they have the air conditioning going to keep them from overheating. So, when I travel, should I board them with someone they don't know and let them stress out while I am out of town, or do what I do with them in the vehicle and they get to enjoy a trip with me? Unless someone can prove that I am endangering my dogs, no state can charge me for leaving my dogs unattended in my truck. The idiots in the world make it harder on those of us who actually have the brains and care to make sure our dogs are safe.
- —Guest scared mom
Call the Police
- I have 2x called our local police to report dogs in hot cars. The first time (80°, 1 window down, full sun, 15+ min), the owner returned to the car before the police got there. I had written down the license plate # and gave it to the officer. I asked him if they take this seriously and if I should call them again if I see another similar situation. He said they definitely care and in fact, he was going to look up this guy's address and head on over there to give him a lecture. The second time I called (75°, windows cracked, full sun, 10+ min) the officer showed up immediately and went to several stores looking for the owner. She eventually found him and hurried him out to his car to get the dog out. She was not happy with him at all and in fact spent about 30 minutes discussing the problem with him. You should NEVER be afraid that you're overreacting by calling the police. You will not get in trouble for it. It is more important to be sure that dog is safe than to save your own pride.

Too hot for your dog??
- Today I was very upset. After shopping at Walmart-walking out to my car I heard a dog barking. It was over 100 degrees today. I went to the car and saw a small puppy on the floor of a junky car. I ran to the soda machine and got a bottle of water. When I got back to the car a young man (Walmart worker) had opened the car and took the dog out of the car. I then took him from the young man and gave him water and was sprinkling some on the puppy. I do not know how long he had been left alone in the car but I do know that I stayed outside holding him for 30 minutes until the owner came out of the store. Her reply "Excuse me- give me back my dog." My reply "You're lucky you still have a dog and he isn't dead!" We exchanged some other words I wont go into and I left. I wish I would've called the police but I was really worried about getting the dog water and making sure he was ok. 20+ people reported the dog in the car to the Walmart supervisor prior to me- I hope I made some impact.

please people it's hot out there
- I seem to call 911 every year,yesterday topped it tho. I was at pet supermarket waiting outside in my truck for my son.noticed car 2 over from me, was there before me, and i was already there for 5 minutes, had two small dogs inside a hot car with the windows rolled up with just an inch left open. i mean this is pet supermarket, you can bring your dogs inside. well i went into the store and confronted the girl and i was told to mind my own business and her dogs were fine, i told her they were not fine and she needed to go get them, again mind my own business. i went to the front of the store and told the manager who, this is the unbelievable part says to me, i cannot call the police. so i called the police, along with someone else. this girl says i will wait for the police inside you can watch the dogs, which i did, to keep a monitor on there condition. i live in naples florida, and yesterday it was around 96 with a heat index of 101. thank god they survived,but i was ready to break a window.

Over reaction
- One Sunday morning, I went to breakfast, I had all four of my dogs. It was 69 degrees, I had all for windows cracked two inch, and my sunroof was all the way open, and I was parted in the shade. Someone called to police and a policeman and a Humane Shelter worker came into the restaurant looking for me. Nothing happened, but it was embarrassing, the human shelter worker said they had to answer all calls. The thermometer I keep in my truck said 69 degrees as well.

Miele S7260 Cat & Dog Upright Vacuum Cleaners
Click to enlarge image
Miele S7260 Cat & Dog Upright Vacuum Cleaner
Availability: Ships out in 2 business days
Item #: MI-VA S7260CD
The S7260 Cat & Dog is the pet owner's version of the luxury S7 upright vacuum cleaners. It features the same ultra maneuverable, easy to use design but includes an Active Air Clean Filter and Mini Turbo brush, both ideal features for those battling pet hair and odors. The Active Air Clean filter has active charcoal to absorb odors and remove pet smells with ease while retaining pet hair, dander and dirt. The mini turbo brush is ideal for removing pet hair from furniture, stairs and car interiors. Those two additional features paired with the S7's powerful suction, maneuverability and unmatched filtration performance, makes the Miele S7260 Cat & Dog the perfect fit for every pet owner. Not to mention, its ultra quiet operation will be better tolerated by your furry friends.
- Cat & Dog Package Includes:
- Active Air Clean Filter this filter combines the Super Air Clean filter with an active charcoal cassette which absorbs odors from the dust bag and traps pet hair, dander and dirt. Retains 99.95% of particles down to 0.5 of a micron.
- Mini Turbobrush 5 ¼" wide brush roll powered by the air movement of the vacuum cleaner has adjustable port design and 120° swivel neck for excellent maneuverability. Ideal for vacuuming pet hair from stairs, upholstery and car interiors.
- Swivel Neck™: Miele's innovated Swivel Neck design allows steering in all directions and can be laid flat to the floor for getting under beds and furniture
- Park Position: when in park the S7's rear wheels are on the ground and make it easy to roll the vacuum from one location to the next. The foot switch disengages the rear wheels and they are retracted into the body of the vacuum enhancing overall maneuverability without exertion on the user.
- 360° Swivel Casters: located on powerhead, improve mobility, are smooth running and rubber coated to protect hard surfaces like tile and wood flooring
- Maximum Agility: thanks to Miele's superior engineering, the S7's are very easy to maneuver in every direction without putting stress or weight on the user. When the vacuum is reclined, the majority of weight is carried by the base powerhead assembly making it easy to hold and remarkably easy to push.
- All Floor Surfaces: moving from carpet to hard floors is not a problem, with the self adjusting powerhead and spring loaded brush roll that can be turned on/off using the fingertip controls.
- Rotary Dial Suction Adjustment: allows for a variety of suction settings to accommodate the surface being cleaned. The dial is labeled with suggested settings for curtains, deep pile, low pile and smooth surfaces.
- Innovative Adjustment: the S7's powerhead features a flexible, spring loaded brush roller that adapts to different carpet heights and floor coverings requiring no manual intervention. The automatic height adjustment works by following the contour of the floor, reaching dust particles found in the depths of deep pile carpeting while the powerhead always maintains optimal surface contact allowing consistent air flow.
- Powerful Two Motor Performance: the S7's are equipped with a strong 1,200 watt Miele-made Vortex Motor System™ that guarantees optimal airflow for excellent suction power and very quiet operation. The brush roller is powered by its own 4,800 rpm motor for strong agitation. The separate brush roller motor allows it to be turned on or off to allow seamless transitions from carpets, rugs and bare floorings.
- Bright LED Headlight: 8 LED lights brightly illuminate your cleaning path so you can see into every nook and cranny and find those dust bunnies.
- 12 ft. Extended Reach Hose: is attached to a lightweight stainless steel 2-piece telescopic suction wand, ideal for cleaning an entire staircase, upholstery, furniture and other hard to reach places.
- Anti-tip Feature: the device that attaches the hose to the vacuum cleaner rotates outward and locks into place for increased leverage, preventing the vacuum from tipping over when using the suction hose.
- 3 Integrated Accessory Tools: the upholstery nozzle, 12" crevice tool, and dusting brush with natural bristles are neatly stored on the back of the vacuum and are always ready for use. The tools can be attached to the vacuum's hose handle or attached to the end of the telescopic suction wand.
- Large Cleaning Radius: the 40 ft. long cord together with the 12 ft. flexible suction hose and telescopic wand give the S7's a 55 ft. operating radius.
- Sealed AirClean Filtration System: is a combination of 3 things, 1) use of the very best raw materials available, 2) revolutionary electrostatically charged 9-layer AirClean™ filtering dust bag with spring-loaded self sealing bag closure, and 3) the selection of high quality filters (Includes Active Air Clean filter for superior odor control. Upgrade to Active HEPA filter for superior particle removal)
- Sealed System Construction: The S7 Cat & Dog is an air-tight sealed system that retains 99.99% of particles at 0.3 micron when used with HEPA filter, 94% of particles at 0.3 micron when used with Active Air Clean filter (results from independent testing at IBR laboratories)
- Legendary Quality and Durability: Miele has been producing floor care products renown for their quality and durability for over 80 years and have very strict quality control levels that adhere to a 110 year pledge of "Forever Better". Each S7 vacuum cleaner is crafted with care, concentration, and respectful attention to details.
Expert Review
I used the S7260 Cat & Dog in my home and was impressed at how easy it was to adjust the suction settings as needed as I moved from bare floors to different area rugs and wall to wall carpeting. We missed the automatic setting that is on the S7580 Tango model that eliminates the need to adjust the suction settings as you changes cleaning surfaces. I was impressed by the way it revived the carpet in high traffic areas of my home. Like most upright vacuums, it was a bit heavy to lug upstairs. The 12 foot extended hose with the anti-tip feature is unbelievable as it allows you to stretch the hose as far as you'd like and there was no need to worry about the vacuum falling over. The telescopic stainless steel wand made it easy to reach the cobwebs at the ceiling and remove the dust from the top of the molding along the floor. We would have liked it if the end of the steel wand had some rubber or plastic on it to prevent scratching the floor or the paint on the walls. Of course, the on board crevice tool or dusting brush could be attached to eliminate this issue, but I am an impatient cleaner who likes to do my non-floor cleaning on the fly. Although heavy, the swivel neck and weight distribution in the design allows it to flow along the cleaning surface effortlessly and change direction at will. I was amazed when I needed to get under a bureau and the Miele lowered to the floor to allow me to clean the area. In conclusion, Miele has successfully designed an upright vacuum that is easy to use and does an incredible job at cleaning. They thought of everything when making this vacuum from the anti-tip feature and fingertip controls to the swivel neck design and spring loaded brush roll. With the addition of the S7260 Cat & Dog model they have made an ideal upright to address pet owners issues including pet odors and hair!

We have been waiting for Miele to come out with an upright that compares to their canisters and they finally have. It seems they analyzed everything a person would want in an upright vacuum and included it in their design. Their latest addition is the S7260 Cat & Dog model, which is the pet owner's version of the Miele S7 upright vacuum cleaners. They have included the same quality and design and have added a handheld turbo brush to remove pet hair. They also replaced the HEPA filter with a Super Air Clean filter that includes active charcoal to remove pet odors.
