BOSTON -- David Ortiz and the Boston Red Sox agreed Friday
to a one-year contract worth $4,587,500.
The designated hitter-first baseman, who made $1.25 million last
year, was among four Red Sox players who filed for arbitration --
pitchers Byung-Hyun Kim and Scott Williamson, and right fielder
Trot Nixon also settled without hearings.
Ortiz had asked for $5 million in arbitration and had been
offered $4.2 million. In addition to his salary, he could earn
$50,000 bonuses for 525 and 600 plate appearances.
Ortiz was third in the AL with a .592 slugging percentage and
hit .288 with 31 homers, 39 doubles and 101 RBI in his first
season with Boston after signing as a free agent. He had spent all
or parts of the previous six seasons with Minnesota.
He had six multihomer games for a team that set the major league
record for slugging percentage, and 72 of his 129 hits were for
extra bases. But he struggled in his 12 playoff games against
Oakland and the New York Yankees, batting .191 with two homers and
eight RBI.

Fundamentally, SDN is still mostly about network plumbing. While plumbing may be useful to tinker with, what you can do with your plumbing is far more intriguing. A rigid interpretation of SDN confines it to Layers 2 and 3, and that's reasonable. But SDN opens opportunities for novel constructions in Layers 4 to 7 that solve real operational problems in data centers. "Data center," in fact, might become anachronistic - data is everywhere, constantly on the move, seemingly always overflowing. Networks move data, but not all networks are suitable for all data.
In his session at 15th Cloud Expo, Steve Riley, Technical Leader in the Office of the CTO at Riverbed Technology, will discuss how finding (or building) the right network, with the right applications, is still a labor-intensive task. Must it always be this way? No: for networks will soon be expressed as code. Finally, the data, the applications that process it, the networks that move it and the objects that store it can all be described by software constructs - let's call this collection a super-blob - in the hands of skilled developers. Freed from their dependence on any given location, super-blobs can move around as necessary, resting on any physical fabric that can satisfy their requirements. As requirements change, locations may change - while preserving all application states. Location-independent computing is within our grasp.
Speaker Bio:
Steve Riley is Technical Leader in the Office of the CTO at Riverbed Technology. His role is to research cutting-edge developments that help customers maximize their infrastructure investments.

A popular speaker at conferences worldwide, Riley meets regularly with user groups of all sizes, and seeks opportunities to engage with customers as often as possible. Born with an Ethernet cable attached to his belly button, he grew up in networking and telecommunications. Besides lurking in the Internet's dark alleys and secret passages, he enjoys freely sharing his opinions about the intersection of technology and culture. He writes at http://stvrly.wordpress.com, tweets as @steveriley, and emails from [email protected]. Prior to joining Riverded, he was Sr. Technical Evangelist and strategist for cloud computing at Amazon Web Services.

Shame allows Indian child abusers to go unpunished
Activists say cultural attitudes and red tape have allowed child abuse to run rife in India. But a new law seeks to change that by bringing abuse to light.
December 10, 2012
The abuse started when Jyoti was 9-years-old. Her sister's husband would take her on car rides promising ice cream. But the trips always ended with him fondling her, demanding kisses, and more. By the time she was 18, he was abusing her weekly and threatened to kidnap her if she told anyone.
Then, years later, she saw bite marks on her 4-year-old daughter's armpits, cheeks, and genitals. Jyoti learned her husband was molesting their child. This time, she says, "I did not keep quiet."
But in trying to protect her daughter and press charges against her husband, Jyoti says, she found out how difficult it is in India to take action against child abuse. Police scoffed when she filed a complaint. Doctors warned that if she pursued legal action, her daughter risked social stigma that would prevent her from being able to find a husband.
"At every stage I was dissuaded," Jyoti says in English from a New Delhi abuse shelter where she and her daughter go for counseling. She eventually got her case to a court after three years of effort. But "the first thing the judge told me was these things don't happen in India. They only happen in America and Europe."
Jyoti's is a familiar story for hundreds of thousands of Indians, where there is little legal recourse, no child protection services, and a cultural tradition that prizes family loyalty above all – even if that means turning a blind eye to abuse within the home. Some parents also avoid reporting abuse for fear it will cause more trauma. And if a case does make it to court, children are often questioned with their alleged abuser in the room or subjected to invasive medical examinations.
Activists say those prevailing attitudes and red tape have allowed child abuse to run rife.
But a new law that went into effect in November seeks to change that by bringing abuse to light and perpetrators to justice. The key change involves shifting the burden of proof onto abusers and envisioning special courts to expedite cases of child abuse.
"Having a law is an indication that, as a society, we have accepted that child abuse is happening in our families, within our communities to children wherever they are in India," says Anuja Gupta, head of the Delhi-based organization Recovering and Healing from Incest.
The "Protection of Children from Sexual Offenses Act" also makes it possible to prosecute for molestation in addition to rape. It's the first law in the country that distinguishes between child and adult victims and sets harsh penalties – up to life in prison.

Don't settle for a view, we are directly on the Gulf. Sit on the balcony with a panoramic direct view of the beach and ocean. Steps from the beach. Three bedrooms with a King, Queen, two twins and a fold out couch. Two stories with private master. Flat screen tv's with Blu Ray players, WiFi, stereo and much more. Professionally decorated and meticulously maintained Platinum Unit. Complex was remodeled in 2011 so everything is new!!
Keywords: Gulf Front, Destin, 3 bedroom, Condo, views, fish, free parking, pool
Been going to the beach since I was a child and this is the nicest unit I have ever stayed in so I bought it. Redone last year so this one is nice. Professionally decorated.
Lori Smith purchased this condo in 2003
This unit is directly on the ocean. Not across the street with a view or angled where you have to lean out to see the water, but right on the sand! Panoramic views of the whole gulf! Its beautiful! Newly remodeled inside and out and professional decorated.
Flat screen TV's, Blu ray players, WiFi, stereo, beautiful views of the beach and ocean, sleeps 8 with two bedrooms and a loft. Close to the outlet mall and the most beautiful beach in the world!!
We loved your place and have stayed at Crystal Sands many times and will continue to rent here in the future . Great location and the view is beautiful . Just wished your condo came with the chair rental included. Would recommend to friends and family . It was a great vacation thank you ! Jennifer
This was my family 2nd time staying here and the 1st experience was better. We arrived to a smelly, half cleaned condo. The patio doors were so nasty that maintenance told us they would have to be replaced. Unwashed, smelly towels in the washer and no cable in 1 bedroom. Lori did her best to make everything right but when you are paying alot you expect alot. My family and I overall are disappointed.
Everything was as described so it met our expectations. Spent most of the time on the beach, so I loved going right out to it and being able to go in and out very easily. Sunsets and dolphins were gorgeous. Condo was clean and provided everything we needed. Great time of year to come. Still hot during the day. Very pleasant nights with less people in town and on the beach.
The location was amazing and right on the beach. More than enough room for the 4 of us. The condo could have been cleaner, there is still black mold on ceiling in upstairs bathroom and the floors were not very clean, the light in the condo is extremely poor (there are only lamps in every room except for the kitchen), there is a light kit on the ceiling fan upstairs, however that bulb was blown and not easy to change. The last issue was the smell in the sink. We could tell someone before us had put seafood in the garbage disposal and the smell was horrible especially since the air was not on and it was 80 degrees in there when we arrived. We put a couple of lemons in there and it was much better. Again just some things that could have been better, the overall location, space, price and experience with Lori was amazing! Even though it was cloudy and rainy some, we had an INCREDIBLE time!
This is an amazing place to stay !!! Good get away for a girls week right on the beach and amazing condo. We even had beach stuff left to take down such as body boards, cooler, etc.
Each year our family goes to the beach before school starts. This year we chose Crystal Sands. Our condo was perry for our needs. We especially loved that we were so close to the beach. The condo space was nice and clean. Beds were comfortable. My only suggestions and not complaints would be 1 put a ceiling fan in master bedroom and add a storage unit for food items near the kitchen. Otherwise you are set to go in this great condo. Thank you Lori!!

This will be our fifth trip to Europe, but first to Switzerland, Austria and Munich.
We are a family of 5 with three teenagers and my cousin, Mitch. The primary purpose of the trip is a week-long leadership for the three teenagers just outside of Geneva in Leysin.
I'd love to get some feedback on this (initial) itinerary because we simply haven't been to this area before and I'm sure that we are overlooking many things. We plan on using a rental van, unless you have a better suggestion considering the fact that we have a lot of luggage (oh, the lady's shoes!!!) with us.
So, here's my proposed itinerary, be kind......
July 10th - Arrive in Geneva and drop off kids at camp in Leysin, then drive to Jungfrau region (still need a base city).
-Four nights in Jungfrau (Grindelwald??)
-Three nights Montreux or Luzern (somewhere different than Jungfrau)
-Pick up teenagers and drive to Appenzell for one night (visiting village along the way)
-Drive to Kitzbuhel for one night
-Drive to Munich for four nights, booking a private tour guide to Bavaria and Neuschweinstein Castle for a full day.
Flight home to LAX from Munich
This is a very preliminary plan and what I'm really hoping for is alternative suggestions on where to stay, other means of travels, side trips, etc.
About us:
40-ish years old, love outdoors, active, very social, like adventure of the unknown (somewhat)
My cousin loves some nightlife
Budget not too much of a concern
Open to wild changes in itinerary if it sounds fun
Thanks in advance for ripping my plan apart and then reassembling.

Critique my trip to Switzerland
This will be our fifth trip to Europe, but first to Switzerland, Austria and Munich.
Report Abuse
I'm glad that budget isn't much of a concern - since Switz is REALLY expensive - assume prices twice what they are in US big cities.
Also, there aren't any cities in the Berner Oberland - there are hamlets, tiny towns and larger towns. And, as in other places in Switzerland, meals are early (restaurants often close at 10 pm), and hours for shops and other venues are limited.
Also, suggest you have a look at a map for your route.
(While Montreaux is charming, Lucern has much more to see/do there and nearby - and it's easier to get to Munich I think.)
Report Abuse
Check the drop fees for picking up a car in Switzerland and dropping in Germany.
Lucerne will have nightlife as will Munich. It might be geared more to your kids ages than you (they don't really try to attract the 40ish crowd).
Report Abuse
Yes, Lucerne over Montreaux for sure. Prices are amazing. I've been looking at dining options for our trip to Zermatt and Lucerne in January and main dishes from 40 to 60 CHF (which is close to 1 to 1 with US$) are not uncommon. You might want to drop your car (actually a van if you're traveling with 6 people) somehwere in Switzerland and train to Germany where you could either stay with trains for the travel around Munich, or rent a different car there.
I'm not a Munich fan. Prefer places like Garmisch-Partenkirchen to base for Bavarian area. Kitzbuhl is fun in winter but don't know that it would have great summer appeal. Salzburg might afford more interesting possibilities but I'd scrap the one night stop in favor of more time in Bavaria with Ludwig's castles and then maybe 1 or 2 nights in Munich as a final stop before your flight out.

NEW YORK, Jan. 28, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report is available in its catalogue:
Water and Wastewater Treatment (WWWT) Market in Brunei, Hong Kong, Maldives, and Taiwan - A CEO 360 Degree Perspective
Uncharted Territories in the WWWT Map Offer Specific Opportunities
The water and wastewater treatment market in Brunei, Hong Kong, Maldives, and Taiwan is likely to offer mid- to long-term business opportunities for market participants with specific opportunities, which are often mutually exclusive. The need for water and wastewater treatment varies in these countries due to the level of market maturity, market demand, and the use of advanced technologies. Brunei and Taiwan strive for better industrial WWWT applications, while Hong Kong is set to explore desalination as a viable treatment option in the future. Maldives will continue to focus on improving water supply and sanitation for its tourism industry.
Executive Summary—CEO 360 Perspectives
Mega Trends
•Water management in island countries such as Maldives, Hong Kong, and Taiwan are unique as they are constrained by size, isolated from mainland, and have limited natural resources.
•Increasing urbanization in Brunei, Taiwan, and Maldives will influence major investments for WWWT needs in the near future as increasing urbanization will boost up the rising demand of clean water.
Industry Convergence and Technology
•All four countries have well-established water treatment infrastructures that use various treatment technologies; this ensures approximately X% of the population have potable water supply.
•Hong Kong has one of the most efficient WWWT infrastructure in Asia-Pacific, with utilization of wide range of chemical and anti-bacterial purifying technologies.
•While Maldives has emphasized on the service sector, particularly in tourism, the government aims to expand its industrial sector's contribution to the GDP. Textile manufacturing, food processing, and communications are the key industries that will play a significant role in the country's economy.
•As the governments are the major stakeholders in the water industry, water price is usually subsidized, thereby resulting in a relatively low water rate in these countries.
Competitive and Best Practices
•Strict government regulations in Taiwan have created a demand for industrial WWWT equipment and wastewater recycling systems, with customers being high-tech manufacturing firms.
•While all Xcountries are relatively open to private investments in their water industries, market participants that could provide specific solutions would stand a better chance in market penetration and expansion. For low-cost simple technologies, local market participants may have the market advantage and necessary networks.
•Taiwan's growth in semiconductor industry will spur the demand for industrial water treatment systems. In Brunei, the demand is propelled by its oil and gas industry and local manufacturing sector.
•With the exception of Taiwan, the government and related entities are the biggest customers of WWWT equipment and services.
Key Takeaway
1. Expansion and retrofit of existing WWWT plants are the focus in all countries.
2. Rural development in WWWT, especially in Brunei, is emphasized. Maldives has the focus on remote WWWT systems in tourist spots.
3. Foreign market participants, especially technology suppliers, are needed, although local service providers are present, mainly in Hong Kong and Taiwan.
4. Reduction of non-revenue water (NRW) and reuse of wastewater are key improvement areas in all countries.
5. In terms of prioritization, foreign market participants should target the countries in the following order: Taiwan, Brunei, Hong Kong, and Maldives.

Unless otherwise indicated in this study, selected countries or territories included in the research service are Brunei, Hong Kong, Maldives, and Taiwan. (Note: Hong Kong and Taiwan may not be recognized as 'countries' politically. However, for the purpose of this research service, they are referred as countries.)
Countries Overview
•Hong Kong and Taiwan are categorized as innovation-driven economies and they are the strongest among the Xcountries covered in this study. Brunei, on the other hand, is seen to be at the transition stage from factor-driven to efficiency-driven economy.
•In terms of relative competiveness, Hong Kong ranked the highest, followed closely by Taiwan and Brunei.
Country Overview—Brunei
•Official Name: Brunei Darussalam
•Government Type: Constitutional Sultanate
•In 2012:111st largest economy in the world; 38th largest economy in Asia

- 13 bridges need repair
Maintenance works on 13 of the 54 bridges in the city are yet to be completed by the PWD, LDA and irrigation departments.This was revealed during the fitness drive of the bridges undertaken on Thursday.
- Plan for land for roads to bridges
Patna: CM Nitish Kumar on Monday asked the Bihar Rajya Pul Nirman Nigam Limited (BRPNNL) officials to ensure that no bridge collapses due to poor quality of construction, saying collapse of a single bridge brings bad name to the entire state. In a reference to the intermediate toppers scam, he said, "A single lapse in the system led to such an unprecedented situation that raised question marks over the state's education system. Now, steps are being taken to clean the system." Speaking at a function organized to mark the 41st foundation day of the corporation, Nitish instructed its officials to make acquisition or lease of land for approach roads to bridges a part of the initial planning of the projects. "Make it an unsaid rule not to approve any project that has no clearance for approach roads. Provision of approach roads connecting the bridges should be made an integral part of DPR and estimates to avoid any problems in future," he said. Rebuking the engineers for maintaining distance from local people during land acquisition exercise, the CM said, "Don't maintain distance from the public in democracy. Be in touch with the common people. This helps in smooth functioning of the system." He said, "Engineer saheb log sirf thekedar se hi baat kijiyega kya? Aap log ko dikkat kya hota hai janta se baat karne me (Dear engineers, why do you prefer to interact with contractors only? What kind of a problem do you people have in talking to the public?)" The CM also dedicated 146 projects built at a cost of Rs 519 crore to the public on the occasion. He also released an in-house publication of the BRPNNL "Pragati Prativedan". Officials with outstanding performance were felicitated as well. Addressing the function, Deputy CM Tejashwi Prasad Yadav emphasized the need for maintaining transparency and reducing the execution time of projects, apart from keeping check over quality. He asked the officials to work harder to realize the CM's vision to make travel to the state capital easier. Also present on the occasion were secretary to CM Chanchal Kumar, road construction deptt secretary Pankaj Kumar, BRPNNL chairman Vinay Kumar and BRPNNL MD Ranjan Kumar.

- Holkar Bridge to be beautified
Nashik: Ahilyabai Holkar Bridge and Ramwadi Bridge would be sporting a new look with a colourful water screen on Holkar Bridge and a 100 feet jet fountain between this bridge and Ramwadi Bridge. Attractive lighting and music are also in the offing. The scene is expected to be pleasanter in the evening and these locations are touted to be popular recreational places for the citizens in future. "The jet fountain will also have colourful lighting. Raj Thackeray's dream project, Goda Park, is expected to be inaugurated formally next month. A Pune-based company Shirke Associates has agreed to undertake the Holkar Bridge and Ramwadi Bridge beautification project as part of their corporate social responsibility," said an official of Nashik Municipal Corporation (NMC). He added that once it started raining, the project could be kick-started and will be completed before the inauguration of Goda Park. "The moving water screen will be created along Holkar Bridge. Water from River Godavari will be brought on the top part of the bridge with the help of a huge pipe. The water will be released from the side of walking path that is by the river below the bridge. The moving water screen will look beautiful from Kapaleshwar temple, Ramkund, to Gadge Maharaj Bridge and in fact from the entire stretch of the river," said the NMC official. With the elections close by, the ruling Maharashtra Navnriman Sena (MNS) at the NMC seems to be hurrying up with long-pending projects. Spokesperson of MNS, Avinash Abhyankar has been handed over the charge of looking into pending projects.
- Ambedkar bridge cracks to be probed
Agra: Taking cognisance of major cracks and damages appearing on the Ambedkar bridge within six years of opening for traffic, the Uttar Pradesh government has directed a probe to find out the lapses by various officials and authorities. Last week, major damages on the bridge surfaced. Concrete chunks started falling off and a gap measuring 6 ft by 6 ft occurred between two beams, following which UPSBCL closed the bridge for repair work. The state government has directed UPSBCL joint managing director (JMD) U J Shukla to probe the technical aspects of the bridge construction work and the role of then unit in-charge Gendha Lal, assistant engineer Vikram Singh and junior engineer Shankar Lal. According to UPSBCL project manager Nawab Singh, all major repairs have been completed, and the bridge is likely to be reopened on June 16. "We are waiting for the cement to settle down properly, and a final decision regarding opening of the bridge for traffic will be taken on June 15," he said. The bridge connects Yamuna Expressway with the city. Tourists use this bridge to visit the Taj Mahal and other monuments in the city. Vehicles going towards Gwalior road also take this bridge. The closure of Ambedkar Bridge has caused major traffic snarls on the other two bridges, Strachi bridge and Jawahar bridge, across the Yamuna, as vehicles are diverted towards these two bridges. The Ambedkar Bridge was built during the Mayawati-led Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) regime. On October 9, 2008, the then chief minister herself laid the foundation of the bridge and it was opened for traffic in 2011, but within a year cracks started appearing on the bridge, which was built at a cost of Rs 30 crore.
- Ambedkar Bridge shuts for repairs
Agra: Expect an increase in traffic jams across the city as the arterial Ambedkar Bridge closes for crucial repairs from Tuesday for at least 10 days. With a major chunk collapsing and several cracks appearing all over the six-year-old structure, the Uttar Pradesh State Bridge Corporation Limited (UPSBCL) has ordered its closing. UPSBCL project manager Nawab Singh told TOI: "It will take around 10 days to repair the damages. Till then the bridge will remain close. The administration has been made aware of this." The move comes after a 6x6ft area collapsed on Sunday. According to UPSBCL officials, the damage seems to have occurred due to the use of a jack on a big vehicle over the bridge. Heavy vehicles are prohibited on Ambedkar Bridge from 6am to 9pm. However, local residents claim, even dangerously overloaded heavy vehicles are allowed to pass during the no-entry period by traffic police allegedly in exchange of money. Vimal Kishor, a local resident, claimed: "Rs 100 is the fixed rate for a heavy vehicles to pass through the bridge. The sum increases, if the vehicle is overloaded." Another local resident Ramsharan Singh said: "The bridge has been getting damaged ever since vehicles began plying on it. This is just poor quality of construction." The Ambedkar Bridge was built during BSP chief Mayawati regime. On 9 October 2008, the then chief minister herself had laid the foundation stone for the bridge. Two years later, vehicles were allowed to pass over the Rs 30 crore bridge. And within a year, it developed its first major crack for which the UPSBCL had to close it for seven days to fix the damage. As per sources, around 15,000 vehicles pass over the Ambedkar Bridge every day. Its closure will increase traffic on the Trans-Yamuna Road. The bridge also connects the Yamuna Expressway with the city. Tourists use this bridge to visit Taj Mahal and other monuments in the city. Vehicles going towards Gwalior Road also pass over it. The traffic situation is expected to get chaotic as some vehicles would have to use the Water Works Crossing, where flyover construction work has narrowed the road. Traffic Inspector Santosh Raghav said: "The number of traffic employees has been increased to manage the situation. Small vehicles will be allowed to use the Strachi Bridge." Heavy vehicles entering the city centre from the Expressway will now have to take a diversion of at least 3km via the Water Works Crossing.

- PCMC pontoon bridge proposal
PUNE: The district administration and the Pimpri Chinchwad Municipal Corporation (PCMC) will submit a proposal to the defence ministry for setting up a pontoon bridge on Mula river to provide access road to residents of Bopkhel. The district authorities on Tuesday met defence minister Manohar Parrikar to work out an alternative as the College of Military Engineering (CME) has decided to dismantle the existing bridge on June 7. Meanwhile, the collector said there is a plan to construct a road bridge crossing the river to provide direct access from Bopkhel. The PCMC will construct the bridge and provide funds for it. The irrigation department, however, has raised some objections as the proposed alignment of bridge is landing within the blue line of the river. To deal with this, the length of a bridge needs to be extended from 192 metres to 1,040 metres. The estimated cost of the bridge will go up from Rs 14 crore to Rs 40 crore, Rao said. BJP Rajya Sabha MP Amar Sable said he will be trying to schedule a meeting with the defence minister in next few days requesting CME not to remove the existing bridge. Sable said, " The local residents will have to bear immense hardships if the bridge is removed. A new temporary bridge needs to be constructed as a temporary measure. It will take two years for completing a permanent bridge which will have access to Khadki''. Dinesh Waghmare, municipal commissioner, PCMC said, "District collector spoke with minister Parrikar in Pune during the formers visit and presented a proposal of defence authorities constructing the alternate pontoon bridge and PCMC will maintain it." tnn

I bought two size medium robes for my girlfriend and her new husband for their honeymoon ... along with a bottle of massage oil and bath salts. They love them!
Sat Jun 18 00:00:00 MDT 2016Richard H. Rating:5.0
Vascillated between this and it's lighter weight version, but went with the 'Ultra Thick' one. A tad stiff when it comes out of the package, but Cinderellas into a very soft, decadently luxurious feeling robe after a wash. Small frays here & there which is to be expected. The 'large' size fits my 200 lb 5'10 frame fine, although I could maybe get into the medium. The biggness is part of the luxury though. Also purchased a medium for the fiancee. She's smaller but strong enough to handle this. Not for a dainty person as the weight may be overwhelming. Overall, love it!

This is a very nice robe, I bought the medium, I generally wear small. but this fits fine with some room to spare. Wash it separately because the fuzz comes off on the other clothes.

Cleans up well. This robe is medium weight, adequate coverage for after shower. I advise dryer sheet extra softener.
Sun Jan 24 00:00:00 MST 2016LadyNredd Rating:4.0
This robe has been nice and warm. I wished it was made of lighter fabric, but hearing how my husband loves the warmth it provides him on these bitter, cold days I guess it has been a great purchase.
Tue Feb 09 00:00:00 MST 2016sgww Rating:4.0
This robe is OK, but not "luxurious" as advertised. It is more like a medium weight towel.
Wed Oct 28 00:00:00 MDT 2015JOELLE C. Rating:4.0
This robe is great. It is thick enough to supply warmth yet not too heavy or bulky. It washes well and the color has not faded with washing. It was a gift for my husband and we are both happy with it.
Wed May 18 00:00:00 MDT 2016csw67960 Rating:4.0
a little lighter than expected but plenty of warmth. The robe would be classified as short, just below my knee ( 5'6"). Washes well and very soft!
Tue May 17 00:00:00 MDT 2016OstkUser200203 Rating:4.0
This robe was a perfect fit for me. I'm short and a medium was just above my ankles which was where I wanted it. I had to order an XL for my husband because it was a little snug through the shoulders. I love the feel!
You have plenty of big, fluffy towels to keep you warm when you hit the bathroom's cold tile floor after a shower. But haven't you forgotten something? Staying cozy after you have dried off requires a bathrobe to wear when you really need to warm up. A luxurious bathrobe can be a particularly great addition to your morning or evening shower or simply a soft piece of clothing to wrap up in on a lazy weekend. Still not convinced you need to buy one? Here are five more reasons you'll want to make sure you have a robe in your bathroom. Read More
