Shower Door Maintenance and Care
by admin on Jan.07, 2012, under Best Place to Buy
Hardware Care: We suggest once the door is installed you follow these simple maintenance steps to ensure a long lasting and beautiful shower door. When squeaking occurs Do not use lubricating sprays such as WD40. Many of the components are coated with a clear lacquer that will be irreparably damaged if subjected to harsh, abrasive chemicals so please don’t use them. Drying the hardware with a clean, soft towel on a daily basis is the best way to maintain it. If mineral deposits form mix a couple of drops of a mild liquid soap (such as Ivory or a similar product) into a cup of warm water. Clean the hardware using a soft, non-abrasive cloth. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry.
Glass: It is easily the most important piece of your shower door and we recommend you put forth your best effort to keep it clean and well maintained. Neglected glass will accumulate water spots, which will eventually turn into mineral deposits. The bast way to keep glass clean is to squeegee the glass after each shower. A squeegee and good surface protector used together on a regular basis will assist in maintaining the original beauty of the glass. If you follow these simple steps you can ensure your shower door will stay good as new for a long time.

Sylvie Atanasio Talks about AlysEdwards Tile

A” is for Alter and E” is for Ego and that’s me.
Under the label of AlysEdwards Tile I have created a beautiful collection of ready made artisian products that look like they were custom made just for you minus the long lead time. I believe that decorating your house should be fun and exciting but all to many times homeowners find themselves frustrated with the whole production process, from being over budget, understanding long lead times, and fighting with their spouse. At AlysEdwards Tile we want to remind you to have fun when selecting your tile by making you laugh with our silly names.
My personal favorite is Gigi’s groovy stix ” Skip and Go Naked“, “Kiss My Big Fat Glass”, “You Ain’t Got no Money take your Broke Glass Home”, and “Menage et Trois”, its only tile and there are no Tile Emergencies.

Shower Doors Los Angeles
by admin on Jan.19, 2011, under Best Place to Buy
Years ago if you wanted to soak in a hot tub or sweat it out in a sauna, you had to either join a gym or stay at a luxury hotel. But with new technological advances and more affordable prices, a lot of this equipment can now be installed in your home. What if you want to have a soak, a sweat, and a bath all at once? Then you may want to look into steam showers which provide all three capabilities and more. Lets not forget about the frameless shower doors installation that would make it the perfect steam shower.
Steam showers are a traditional stall with regular heads and fixtures. And though you can take a regular bath within the glass door enclosure, you also have the ability to turn this space into a steamy sauna. A generator heats the water to a boil and then this hot water vapor is pushed out through jets that line the walls and ceiling. The surfaces are constructed of specialized material made to withstand the extreme heat without damage (the surrounding temperature can range anywhere from 90-115 degrees). Plus, the unit is thoroughly sealed with a proffessional Glass Shower Door Installer so moisture does not enter the bathroom to ruin wallpaper, paint, or drywall.
If you are in the Los Angeles area and are in need of any of these products mentioned I can reccomend Builders Hub in North Hollywood.

AlysEdwards Tile and Mosaics
by admin on Jul.16, 2010, under Best Place to Buy
AlysEdwards Mosaics Designs are breathtaking,
The kitchen is one place that is always in a constant need of colour and vibrancy. This may be the room where your entire family even eats their breakfast together while you cook it hot. Most women spend an hour at least in their kitchens everyday and wish to have a space that is colourful and cheerful so as to add those vibes to their delicious food.
The backsplash in any kitchen is the space that is toughest to keep clean but the best area to add a few tiles. By adding colourful glass mosaic tiles, not only do you add life to the kitchen, but these are also quite easy to clean as they never stain permanently. Just behind the hob, the backsplash is very tough to clean. Food splatters cover this surface everyday and it’s important to choose a wall finish that can be cleaned instantly with just a wipe. That makes glass mosaic tiles the perfect choice for the backsplash.

Blackberry 6.0 Release Date
by Guy on Jul.13, 2010, under News
* Update: Blackberry 6.0 New Video
With all of the pre-release hardware leaks of late that have showed off glimpses of BlackBerry 6, it’s nice to see RIM up their game with a new BB6 promo video. Over at the official BlackBerry blog, Andrew Bocking, VP of Handheld Software Product Management, expressed his excitement for the updated operating system. RIM let us know that:
In addition to the new fluid user interface, the new video illustrates a few of the new applications and features in BlackBerry 6 that will provide users with a mobile experience that is both fun and approachable, yet extremely powerful including:
- redesigned home screen
- universal search
- context-sensitive pop-up menus
- revamped BlackBerry Browser powered by WebKit
- new applications like Social Feeds (which integrates all your news and social networks into one destination) and more
Check out the the video above to get a better idea of the new look and new features coming in BlackBerry 6. All I want to know now, as we all have for months, is which in-market devices will get the BB6 update? Is 6 only going to be made available to devices with 512MB of memory (or more)? Or will we see existing devices like the Bold 9700, Tour or Storm2 also get a BB6 update in time. I think I know the answer to this question, but it sure would be nice if RIM just told us. If we’re going to need to be buying new phones for BlackBerry 6, I’d rather know sooner rather than later so I can start saving my change. Be sure to sound off in the comments with your reactions to the video!
Tart Yogurt
by admin on Jul.12, 2010, under Best Place to Buy
I found that Menchies yogurt in my opinion has the best tart flavor although I also really enjoy Farm Boys Tart flavored yogurt. Both sell for about .39 Cents an ounce. Menchies was clean and a fun experience.
Yogurt Land on the other hand is always really dirty. I dont know who is managing these locations but they need to maybe be visited by the health department. I wont speak for all the locations but the Yogurt Land in Sherman Oaks really needs someone to clean up.
