You think no "up-splash" is the best thing to improve a toilet. Tell the others three reasons why. Tell them what is wrong with their things. Also, tell the others which is the most unnecessary of these (and why): TV screen, warm seat or a silent flush.

For a career that once seemed so good on paper, the crisis in teacher recruitment is now hardly ever out of the news.
There are not enough people signing up to become teachers and too many are dropping out - some experienced due to the stress and increase in workload but often the newly qualified leave the profession, unprepared for the life in the classroom.
School lead Andrew Truby, a national leader of education, is determined to change the narrative about teaching as a profession.
He feels school leaders have it in their gift to change this situation on the ground by making brave decisions and by investing in the professional culture so that schools become irresistible places to work.
At St Thomas of Canterbury School, in Meadowhead, where Mr Truby is executive headteacher, there is a 100 per cent school-based teacher training school which is going from strength-to-strength.
The outstanding Ofsted-rated school became a teaching school in 2015, and works with partner schools in the Learning Unlimited Teaching School Alliance.
The alliance, based in a modern training facility at the school, takes on School Direct trainees on a year-long programme.
Each student is placed in one of 14 partner schools across Sheffield, Doncaster and Chesterfield for the entire programme, where they will work for a year alongside outstanding and primary class teachers.
Teaching school manager, Anita Bray, said: "The beauty of this course is that trainee teachers are based in a school for the whole programme.
"They encounter children and liaise with parents. They do things like parents evening - all the nitty gritty.
"The trainee teachers have been there and have done it, they have had that experience which is much different from doing it in classrooms."
During the course, students spend time in another of the partner schools so they get to experience life in two schools.
They are given a mentor who, at first, they observe, then plan lessons alongside before the mentor oversees the trainee teacher planning and delivering the lessons.
The trainee teachers meet once a week at the School Direct hub session for training, with specialist leaders of education or subject specialists coming in to take sessions.
Teaching school director, Sarah Rockliff, described the process as 'learning by doing'.
She said: "Trainee teachers are in classrooms and they are coming to hub sessions and picking up ideas about teaching and learning and then the next day they get the chance to put that into practice.
"Teaching is a craft and the only way to become a master of your craft is to keep practising it."
She added: "After only a few weeks the trainees start to refer to their partner school as 'my school' and they feel a real connection to the school they are working in and are invested in the children. That adds to the motivation.
"It's a hard course and requires a lot of hard work."
The alliance was established in 2015 and the first cohort of students all gained jobs after completing the course.
Trainees come from a variety of backgrounds, some have been teaching assistants or involved in education, while others are looking for a career change.
Trainee teacher Nick Walker, aged 31, taught English abroad before returning to England to further his career.
He said: "I have been teaching for five years already and I thought it would be beneficial to me to be in a hands-on situation and seeing what it was like day-today.
"I was at university 10 years ago. I wanted to carry on learning and this feels like a job whereas if I'd gone back to university it would have felt like a step backwards."
Former secondary school teaching assistant Kirsty Norris, 25, said: "You see the reality of life in a school. You experience parents' evening and when sometimes your lessons plans just don't work.
"It's hard work but you know that next year it will all be worth it."
Mr Truby, who is strategic lead for the alliance, said recruiting teachers ready for the classroom had been a challenge in the past.
"Recruitment of high quality teachers is an ongoing challenge for schools and in the past the newly qualified teachers who we did appoint were not ready for the classroom," he said.
"Through our 100 per cent school-based teacher training route, our School Direct trainee teachers experience the full school year in a primary school.
"When they start in their NQT year, they are confident in subject knowledge, planning, marking, assessment as well as knowing how the school works throughout the year."
He felt the perception around teaching needed to change because it is 'the best job in the world'.
He added: "Although teaching as a career gets a really bad press and there is a lot of talk about workload, we believe that the schools who invest in their culture will have an easier job recruiting and retaining the best teachers.
"We spend time making our schools a positive place to work because happier teachers mean happier children.
"It is time to change the narrative about this profession because we believe that teaching is the best job in the world."
The alliance is still recruiting trainees for September when it will start two new programmes. In addition to general primary, there will be a primary with maths and an early years route.

I like the south. It makes me happy when I call to reschedule a doctor's appointment here and the receptionist isn't mean to me. I like shopping at Publix where I'm offered a sample of whatever cheese and cold cuts I'm buying at the deli. They also give Dean a free cookie if he wants one. (He usually doesn't.) I like football season here, too. Everyone wears their team colors with pride and participates in (usually) friendly razzing of the other team. I like that my students automatically call me Mrs. Lane (or mistakenly, Dr. Lane) out of respect for my position, even though I've told them they can call me Jen. I like that people eat the way I like to eat and that every restaurant in town serves sweet tea.
I like New York, too. I miss seeing the autumn foliage up there, especially upstate. I like the energy of the city and the fact that you can find any type of food you want any time of day. I like walking down the street and hearing 8 different languages. I like the knowledge that when I step off the plane there for BlogHer next August, I'll feel like I'm home, even though I will have been gone for over 2 years.
I like organizing things. Even though the auditions I'm currently coordinating are making me want to pull my hair out on a daily basis, I like being in charge of them. I'm enjoying organizing my friend Meredith's baby shower for next month. I have lists all over my house. Some contain menus, others supplies I need to pick up next time I'm near Staples. I like the method to my madness.
I like to cook. I LOVE that it's fall and I can employ my crockpot full-time again with things like chili, chicken tortilla soup and pork roasts. When I'm stressed, I cook, especially when I have a project on hold. When I"m waiting for someone to complete their part of a project, I tend to feel antsy and helpless. Cooking gives me almost instant gratification. I can prepare a meal, serve it and eat it in a realatively short amount of time and it gives me a great sense of satisfaction. This, friends, is why my child is so well-fed.
I like to count my blessings as often as I can so I don't lose perspective. This week is all about perspective. Now that I've taken a step back, things look pretty good.
We like you too "Dr" Lane!! And the reminder for thankfulness...did you know it's our Thanksgiving this weekend? Your post was very fitting for us Canadians!
ps - I'm jealous that you've lived in NYC (I <3 NY) and get to go back there next summer.
Perspective is a very good thing. I love living in the south, but I hate MRS. I don't know why I have such an aversion to that...could be because my mother in law still addresses my birthday card to MRS. Mr. P.
I am glad you can find things you like in any place. I do love small towns for the ease of life, but big cities have things that are great too!
Lab-grown magnesite a boon for carbon sequestration?
Left undisturbed, carbonate minerals can naturally lock up carbon in a stable form for millions of years or longer. Triggering the formation of carbonate minerals is thus a promising means of removing and sequestering carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. In recent research, scientists uncovered new details about how one of Earth’s most stable, albeit slow-to-form, carbonates — magnesite — grows in nature and have found a way to accelerate its formation in the lab at room temperature. The results could aid in developing efficient carbon sequestration technologies.

New discoveries in mineralogy, one of the oldest human endeavors, are arising from a new sort of mining—data mining. Mineralogists are applying statistical models and data science techniques to reveal previously unseen patterns and clues hidden in mineralogical databases, and to find undiscovered minerals.
Facebook on Friday disclosed a breach of its network that affected almost 50 million user accounts. The social networking giant said that attackers exploited a vulnerability in Facebook’s code that let them steal access tokens when users switched over to a public profile view via the “View As” feature. The access tokens allowed the attackers to take over user accounts — however it’s still unclear whether user data was accessed and misused.
Facebook said it has secured its network and user accounts since engineering discovered the attack on September 25. The vulnerability was fixed and Facebook said it has notified law enforcement.
One of them has been eliminated...permanently.
The traveling TV dance show, Ballroom with the B-Listers, is coming to Washington, D.C., and ballroom dancer Stacy Graysin is first in line to participate. Not only will the publicity propel Graysin Motion, Stacy’s dance studio, into the limelight, but the prize money could help offset her looming debt. Plus, Stacy’s teen idol, heartthrob Zane Savage, specifically requested to be her partner.
But the whirlwind reality contest stumbles when the show’s coproducer, Tessa King, is found dead in the Potomac River. All the clues point to Tessa being murdered—and the suspects are the contestants and crew of B-Listers. Now Zane and the rest of the B-Listers must promenade back to fame, and Stacy will need to hustle to maintain her reputation, win the competition, and catch a killer.
Ella Barrick grew up in the South, but has since migrated West. She spent some time working for Uncle Sam and taught English at the college level before turning her hand to writing mysteries.
Ella and her husband took exactly two ballroom dancing lessons on the quickstep before Ella’s bruised ankles and crushed feet forced them to retire. (Her husband is a wonderful guy, but he doesn’t have a single ballroom dance gene in his whole body.) Thus, Ella relies on the kindness of competitive ballroom dancers and friends who foxtrot fabulously for the dance details in her Ballroom Dance Mysteries. And, of course, she watches Dancing with the Stars for costume and choreography ideas!
Besides writing, Ella enjoys reading, gardening, home decorating, traveling, and long walks or hikes.
This sounds like a fun cozy to read. I would like to see who did it.
I enjoyed DEAD MAN WALTZING and am looking forward to the latest in this series!
This dancing cozy sounds like fun, sometimes it is safer to watch than to dance!
On her website, I read an excerpt from book. I like the part where she says that she felt "transported" to the past.
