Dear JW: The men in the room simply have selective memory loss. They probably don't mean to appear like lazy slobs whenever casseroles and dipping sauce are in the vicinity. The best fix for this guys club conduct is to remind the hairy highnesses that extra hands are needed. You need to motivate these members of the species to act more homo erectus. Throw one of the guys a towel and declare: tonight is your turn".
WASHER: After purchasing new towels, wash them separately four to five times before adding them to other loads because residual dyes may ruin clothes. Tip: Do not use fabric softener when drying towels; it makes them less absorbent. Also, for fluffier towels, do not dry them completely after washing. TOWELS: Ever wonder why your towels have small white marks on them? Bleach spots on bath towels and washcloths may be caused by whitening agents in toothpastes, creams and soaps. Extra Tip: If you have a pull on a towel, cut it off rather then ripping it thus ruining the textile. RINSING: Clean your washing machine by rinsing hoses and unclogging soap scum. Pour one cup vinegar into an empty washing machine and run the regular cycle.
Cat urine on hardwood floors: Combine 1 quart hydrogen peroxide, 1 tbsp. ammonia, 1/3 cup baking soda and 1/2 tsp. dish soap in a container. Stir for 5 minutes and pour onto affected gaps. The spots will foam, cover with plastic wrap and pile on heavy books. Leave to dry overnight and mop in the morning. Repeat three times. If smell remains sand areas and pour on the above recipe, cover with plastic wrap. Pile on books, leave overnight. If smell still remains apply three coats of clear polyurethane.

Tonight on Hockey Night in Canada!" Zach Nielson exclaimed, following the cue of a CBC cameraman who was shooting the Scotiabank Heroes of Hockey segment for Hockey Night's pre-game show. Aside from being TV stars for a day, the Wheat Kings get to keep the specially made Hockey Night towels used in the dressing room scene, the badges they wore on their jerseys for the segment and will also have a sponsored pizza party on March 13.
Counter space and elbow room are sparse in a small bathroom so having a simple system in place to alleviate overflowing countertops, wet towels on the floor and so on will help keep the space clean and your nerves calm. A few things that you can do is to have two of the things you might be vying for. Two mirrors is a good idea. One at the sink and a second full length one behind the bathroom door (or wherever you can fit one) will give each person a little breathing room and will brighten up the space at the same time. Even a pull-out wall mirror can be helpful and usually has a magnified mirror on one side for putting on makeup. A second towel bar or ring (I prefer towel bars as the towels dry better on them) will help keep your mate's towels from being under your feet. Adding decorati...

Finally, we can't ignore Al Gore. Paper towels are much greener than electric hand dryers. Unless your electricity is purely hydro or nuclear, every time you use a blast of hot air to dry your hands, you are burning coal, oil or gas. These fossil fuels not only produce CO2 and other greenhouse gases, but they also cause air pollution. And call me stupid, but ... doesn't all that extra hot air actually increase global warming? First of all, let's get one thing straight. These hot air dispensers do not work. They do not get your hands dry -- at least in any timely sense. In fact, if you were to hang around long enough to actually get dry hands, your next move would be to search for something to solve your chapped skin problem. The fact that they don't work is why you see gobs of shredded...
The accessories are elegant and understated as well. Monogrammed towels and a simple stripe border on the shower curtain are all that is needed to give the room the finishing touch. The wainscoting adds to the elegance of the space as well. Painting the outside of the claw-foot tub is a nice touch in this room, as it provides additional visual balance. In a black-and-white bathroom, there's no rule that says you can't have a splash of colour. I've seen similar tubs where the outside was painted in a vibrant colour (like red) or even gold-leafed and burnished. Each treatment was lovely in its own right, so don't hold back. Black and white can work in the bedroom as well. Although it doesn't seem like a cosy combination, you can make it cosy with the elements you choose. After all, a big,...
I've opted for the 85-minute "Pure Bliss," one of Olympic's most popular packages, instead. It starts off with their signature service, the Akasuri Scrub -- a traditional Korean technique for exfoliation. Under [Lee]'s relentless onslaught with her sandpaper-like mitts, I'm sure I have no skin left. Lee prods me one last time and announces, "All finished." As I peel myself off the massage table, she sternly wags her finger at me and admonishes, "No shower today. No shower." I wouldn't even dream of breaking her rules. Who knows what sort of punishment she'd dish out? We're supposed to cool down by rubbing ourselves with ice chips, but [Julie] and I agree it just doesn't sound fun or relaxing. Instead, she opts for the scented cooling towels and I jump into the Experience Shower. I try t...
