This invention relates generally to the measurement of magnetic properties of a material and, more particularly, to providing a measurement of magnetic properties relevant to magnetic particles dispersed in a non-magnetic medium.
In a non-magnetic medium, such as a fluid, in which magnetic particles are dispersed, a measurement of the magnetic properties has been used to determine parameters such as the magnetic particle concentration in the medium. In the prior art, the response of the medium to the application of a magnetic field to a magnetic particle-bearing fluid has been used to measure the properties of magnetic particles suspended therein and, consequently, to determine the properties of fluid itself. In U.S. Pat. No. 4,651,092, entitled, METHOD OF DETERMINING DISPERSION OF VISCOSITY OF RESIN/SOLVENT MIXTURE CONTAINING MAGNETIC PARTICLES, issued on Mar. 17, 1987 in the name of A. Brunsch et al., a magnetic field generated by a set of coils is applied to fluid to determine characteristics of magnetic particles suspended in a fluid medium, for example, the concentration of magnetic particles in the medium. In the configuration disclosed, a relatively small magnetic field (approximately 10 Oe) is generated. In U.S. Pat. No. 4,522,501, entitled MONITORING MAGNETICALLY PERMEABLE PARTICLES IN ADMIXTURE WITH A FLUID CARRIER, issued on Jun. 11, 1985 in the name of M. A. Shannon, the concentration of magnetic particles in a fluid medium is determined by measuring the change in torque in a rotating conducting member resulting from the eddy current variation when the fluid medium is used to shield the rotating member from a magnetic field. Neither of the references provides sufficient accuracy for the determination of the magnetic properties of the magnetic medium.
Apparatus is commercially available for measuring the magnetic properties of a material. For example, Model 7600A BH Meter available from LDJ Incorporated is a microprocessor-controlled device designed to measure magnetic properties of materials. Such devices are both expensive and bulky and can typically measure parameters which, in many situations, are not important for the characterization of the material.
A need has therefore been felt for apparatus and an associated method for measuring the dispersion or the magnetic saturation of a fluid having magnetic particles suspended therein, the apparatus selected being relatively simple, accurate, and which does not involve undue complication.
The present invention is directed to overcoming one or more of the problems set forth above. Briefly summarized, according to one aspect of the present invention, a cylindrical permanent magnet which is caused to physically rotate, has a sample coil and a reference coil symmetrically disposed with respect to the axis of the cylindrical magnet, the coils being positioned on opposite sides of the permanent magnet axis. The sample coil surrounds a sample holder in which a material sample can be placed. The reference coil and the sample coil, in the absence of a magnetic material interacting with the rotating field, can be adjusted to provide a null signal when applied to the input terminals of an amplifier/meter. When a material sample is placed in the material sample holder, the magnetic particles of the material interact with the changing magnetic field resulting from the rotation of the permanent magnet. A voltage is generated as a result of the interaction of the material sample with the changing magnetic field. The voltage can be used to determine the saturation flux of the material and, consequently, the concentration of magnetic particles in the material. By flowing a fluid material sample through the sample holder, the apparatus can be used in process control applications.
The present invention advantageously provides for an accurate saturation flux measurement without the use of elaborate apparatus. This measurement can provide the concentration of magnetic particles in the material. The configuration is suitable for use as a portion of a process control system.
These and other aspects, objects, features and advantages of the present invention will be more clearly understood and appreciated from a review of the following detailed description of the preferred embodiments and appended claims, and by reference to the accompanying drawings.
FIG. 1a is a side view schematic block diagram of the configuration used in determining the magnetic properties of a sample of magnetic material positioned in one of two coils symmetrically positioned on opposite sides of a cylindrical magnet, while FIG. 1b is an end view schematic block diagram of the configuration.
Referring to FIG. 1, a cylindrical permanent magnet 13 has an axis of magnetization in a direction indicated by the arrow 13A, i.e., perpendicular to the axis of the cylindrical magnet. The cylindrical permanent magnet is rotated by motor 100 (FIG. 2) about an axis 14A in a direction indicated by the arrow 14B. Sample holders 11 and 12 are symmetrically positioned with respect to the cylindrical magnet 13 on opposite sides of the magnet. Each sample holder has an axis positioned in a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation 14A. Sample holder 11 has coil 16 wrapped there around, while sample holder 12 has coil 17 wrapped there around. The coils 16 and 17 are coupled so that voltages induced therein by the changing magnetic field (i.e., from rotating cylindrical permanent magnet 13) are in opposition. The coils are coupled in series and applied to input terminals of amplifier/meter 19. Typically, the coils 16 and 17 are arranged so that, in the absence of a sample material, no voltage signal is applied to amplifier 19.
When a magnetic material is placed in one of the sample holders, the changing magnetic field from the rotating cylindrical permanent magnet 13 causes the magnetic material to generate a (changing) magnetic flux. The changing magnetic flux induces a voltage in the associated coil which is not duplicated in the other coil. Consequently, the signals induced in the coils are no longer balanced and a voltage is present on the output terminal of amplifier/meter 19.
In a preferred embodiment, the rotating magnet B-H meter is used to measure the pigment concentration or saturation magnetization of a coating material. The magnet is 1.5 inches in diameter by 2.0 inches long and is fabricated from an NdFeB material. The magnet has a field of approximately 2400 Oe which is selected to insure saturation of the 900 Oe coercivity particles in the coating material. An 1/8 horsepower motor rotates the permanent magnet at 3,600 RPM so that the field frequency is 60 Hz. The windings in the coils 16 and 17 each have 1,000 turns. With no sample material in the device, the primary voltages induced in the coils will cancel. In operation, the coating material is placed in the sample holder associated with one of the coils. The magnetic field from the permanent magnet magnetizes the coating material and the voltage induced in the coil will be proportional to the time rate of change of the resultant magnetic flux. Because the field from the magnet is a large rotating vector, for which the magnitude of 2,500 Oe is much larger than the 900 Oe coercivity of the sample, the magnetization of the media being measured is saturated parallel to the field from the magnet. Hence, the magnetization is a constant rotating vector and thus the voltages induced in the coils are sine waves. The magnitude of the voltage is proportional to the saturation flux density of the sample. The 60 Hz sine wave signal amplitude generated by a flux magnitude of 1 Maxwell is about 65 mV, a signal which can be detected with a signal to noise ratio of approximately 30 dB. Electronic integration can give the saturation flux density of the coating material. Calibration can be performed by inserting a standard material into the second sample holder.
It will be now appreciated that there has been presented apparatus and method for measuring the saturation flux density of a sample medium. It will be clear that the sample holder can be a tube and that the medium can flow continuously through the tube. In this manner, the present apparatus can be used to monitor continuously the fluid flowing through the sample holder and can be incorporated as part of a process control system. In the process control system, the concentration of magnetic particles can be continuously monitored and appropriate adjustments performed as a result of the measurements.
Operation of the present invention is believed to be apparent from the foregoing description and drawings, but a few words will be added for emphasis. The disclosed apparatus is particularly useful in the determination of the properties of materials into which magnetic particles have been dispersed. The disposed apparatus uses relatively simple and relatively inexpensive apparatus while providing an accurate measurement of the saturation flux density.
While the invention has been described with reference to a fluid medium, it is apparent that the invention is easily adapted to the insertion of nearly any magnetic material in the sample holder. As long as the effective coercivity of the magnetic material is smaller than the 2500 Oe field from the rotating permanent magnet, the signal induced will be a simple sine wave and electronic integration to obtain the saturation flux density is not required. If high coercivity samples are measured, electronic integration may be needed.
While the invention has been described with particular reference to a preferred embodiment, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes may be made and equivalents may be substituted for elements of the preferred embodiment without departing from invention. In addition, many modifications may be made to adapt a particular situation and material to a teaching of the invention without departing from the essential teachings of the present invention.
As is evident from the foregoing description, certain aspects of the invention are not limited to the particular details of the examples illustrated, and it is therefore contemplated that other modifications and applications will occur to those skilled in the art. It is accordingly intended that the claims shall cover all such modifications and applications as do not depart from the true spirit and scope of the invention.

Nancy Reagan We had a lovely eight years at the White House and left with many fond memories. At the top of that list has to be Roland Mesnier, the pastry chef. At the state dinners I couldn't wait for the dessert to be served because it was always something beautiful and tasty. Christmas was another special time because Roland would always make a gingerbread house and decorate it differently. One year he made a chimney of jellybeans, and the walk leading up to the house was lined with jellybeans on either side. All for my husband, of course!
Barbara Bush Roland is truly a great pastry chef every dessert he created was a delicious work of beauty. He use his special gifts to serve his country in such a way that made George and me so proud to be Americans at state dinners. If there is such a thing as a "genius pastry chef," Roland Mesier is it!
Hillary Rodham Clinton What is so wonderful about Roland Mesnier is that his fantastic pastry and confections always look beautiful and taste divine. During our White House years together, he could work his magic for a small family gathering or a dinner for six hundred. Everything he ever prepared was made with love and an unfaltering dedication to the art of pastry making and the highest standards of his profession. In short, he is the best there is!
Laura Bush What does Roland Mesnier make with seven pounds of chocolate, six pounds of butter, and lots of imagination? Pure perfection! That is what President Bush thinks of his seven-layer chocolate birthday cake, which Roland makes every year. Knowing how much George loves baseball, Roland decorated one cake with baseballs and bats made of blown sugar. You could even see the wood grain in the bats. From birthdays to state dinners, Roland makes every event memorable with his whimsical desserts. His creations are a reflection of him creative, original, and sweet as can be.

| Guest chapter 8 . 10/22/2014
Hey i figured out the best thing about your fic. You stopped. Its the only compliment I can give your writing. You threw out a whole bunch of awful fic in a short period of time. You went for quantity, volume over quality and it shows. Its painful to read as most pointless repetitive things are. But at least you stopped. Bravo
| Guest chapter 7 . 10/22/2014
All your crap is the same. Its crap. dont you get it? every story is exactly the same mabe a different place but exactly the same scenario. Its like opening a book and finding every freakin page is the same. a few words rearranged.
| Guest chapter 6 . 10/22/2014
Oh yea Bella is Kind and sweet. I cant stand this Jake he is nothing like he should be. He is whiny twerp and he is every bit as deluded about Bella ( kind and sweet! thats just too funnt. On what planet is Bella kind and sweet. Bella isnt Kind she is selfish, mean spirit and wants a cold dead reanimated corpse. You just dont get it. there is nothing sweet about Bellas obsession with that reanimated corpse. Nothing. It is ugly and twisted as her using Jake. she is sucking him dry for her own selfishness. Your Bella isnt someone that we can root Jake is a carbon copy of Bella given her attributes she does not have. She isn ot kind or sweet she is mean an her soul is ugly especially in your fics. You just keep going around in abig circle telling the same thing over and over. why bother? You cant write except for one silly plot nand its not one of the better ones. Thats why you have almost no reviews. Because your stuff is all the same. No freshness,. no originality. Just this ..dreck

I loved these little snippets of what they could have been had they not been interrupted by Edward. It still breaks my heart that Jake just tried and tried and tried... and she was still such a butt. I can't help but wonder if there was more than just "love" involved, if there was a deeper sense of dazzling... But, still wonderful and I really enjoyed it!

Okay...so...as a native French speaker, I thought I'd give you what you wrote Jacob says properly.
"Bella mon amour, je t'aime chaque jour d'avantage. Aujourd'hui plus qu'hier, et bien moins que demain."
What you wrote was close, but not what somebody would actually say.

We stayed in the tower part which is the main building. The staff was WONDERFUL! We had a quick check in and our room was nice. The beds were very comfortable. We had two queen beds, a recliner, desk and chair, wall unit that held the microwave, fridge, televison and had dresser drawers. The bathroom was a little small. The shower had sliding doors which are not convenient when you have hip and knee problems. That was a downfall as you could not sit on the edge of the tub. The shuttle service is FANTASTIC! The housekeeping staff was alright. I did not like the fact that there was no guest laundry in the tower building itself. I had to go outside in the freezing cold to one of the other buildings to do my laundry. I would recomment putting a guest laundry in the main building especially since you pay more to stay there. However, it was cheaper than going to an outside laundromat and the machines worked really well! My biggest complaint would be the the breakfast. Yes it is free, however, it is the same day after day. No variety so we did find ourselves buying breakfast at restaurants and at the Clinic. Would I stay again, ABSOLUTLEY! Would I recommend, ABSOLUTELY!

SHOOTING THE BREEZE WITH .... Chargers cornerback Antoine Cason
SAN DIEGO -- Antoine Cason is heading into the most important season of his young professional career.
The Chargers traded cornerback Antonio Cromartie in the offseason and need Cason to become the star they expected him to be when they drafted the Arizona product in the first round of the 2008 NFL draft.
He played nickel back as a rookie but lost his position to Steve Gregory in 2009 despite collecting two interceptions early in the season. Cason's playing time diminished significantly from there, but his confidence never waned.
Apparently, the Chargers believe in him, too.
When they traded Cromartie, they installed Cason as the heir apparent to his starting spot. While he had to fight for playing time in his first two seasons, Cason now is expected to play most every snap. And he says he's ready for it.
He took some time last week to discuss his demotion, the Arizona heat, football fashion sense and living up to expectations in the upcoming season.
Question: You're sporting a visor on your helmet this year. Why the change?
Answer: It looks cool doesn't it? (laughs) I wore one in high school and I always thought it made me look tough. Now I realize it has some practical advantages, no fingers can get in there, no grass or dirt can obscure my vision. But, let's be honest. I got it 'cause it looks cool.
Q: You're from Long Beach and went to Arizona for college. Did you ever get used to the heat?
A: You get accustomed to it, but you never get used to it. The heat always affects you, but you find ways to get from one air-conditioned spot to another really fast.
Q: Football practice in August isn't air conditioned. How'd you survive that?
A: You can't escape it then. It's just plain hot, and you deal with it. But in my opinion, I'd rather have it hot than cold.
Q: Growing up in Long Beach, were you a Chargers fan?
A: Nope. I wasn't a Raiders or Rams fan either, but I went and watched the Chargers training camp when it was at the Home Depot Center (in Carson).
Q: What's your focus in the offseason? I hear you spend a lot of time on the track.
A: That's where it starts. I get a solid base (by) running on the track to get the conditioning right before I get into the football stuff. By the time you get into the meat of the offseason program, you're ready for drills and practices. You can't do any of that well until you're in the best possible shape.
Q: With Antonio Cromartie traded to New York, you're the presumptive starter at cornerback. Has that changed your offseason in any way?
A: It didn't. I prepare for every season like I'm going to start each game. I'm going to keep working and do the things I know I can do and prove that I belong in the starting lineup at this level.
Q: What was the reaction to Cromartie getting traded? It definitely opened up an opportunity for you.
A: It certainly did, but I honestly didn't give it too much thought. I have nothing to do with this team's offseason activity, but I believe that I was going to get my shot either way. No matter who was here, I was going to come in here and compete for a starting job.
Q: Last season, you were taken out of the nickel back spot (and replaced by Steve Gregory) and moved into a backup cornerback role. Were you upset by that?
A: It happened, and there was nothing I could do about it. I wasn't happy, but it made me stronger as a person and better as a player. Trust me when I say that I never stopped working hard. That's why I'm coming into this season an even stronger player.
Q: Do you see growth within this pass defense?
A: We've been together for some years now, and you really get to know each other as people and as players. You know what they do and how they react to certain situations. Familiarity helps a secondary tremendously, and I think it's going to do a lot for us this season.
Q: Being a first-round pick comes with riches, clout and big-time expectations. Is it a blessing or a curse?
A: It's a blessing. I worked my tail off to get to that point and earn that recognition. There are expectations, but no more than I have for myself. I won't trade that distinction for anything.

Bernadine (Angela Bassett's character) divorced after 11 years says: "You know what's funny. I always thought if I gave him what he needed he'd give me what I need. It's amazing what can happen when you give a man control over your life."
DAMN! That goes straight to my heart. Guilty! I have been guilty of this thought process and sometimes it resurfaces. I'm sure it goes back to my "daddy issues." Abandonment issues are hard to shake.
Honestly, it seems logical, right? I give you what you need and you return the favor. But let's think about this. as women, we become so focused on satisfying him that we forget ourselves. I think we believe that a satisfied man never leaves. If he has everything he needs from me, he won't go looking for it elsewhere.
And now you've become a magician trying to perform all reasonable and unreasonable requests. You've put your routines on hold to make sure he has what he needs. You love taking care of him, but who the hell is taking care of you? And you love taking care of him because he seems so happy when you do it, until he's not. Because the truth is you've done too much and what you call "love" he calls "not having a life" and "suffocation." He was attracted to you and the life you had when he pursued you.
Truth is, you're not really giving him everything he needs. You don't have that power. You are doing what you need to fool yourself into a false sense of security and certainty. Listen to me, nothing you do will make a man stay if he wants to leave. Be you! Do you! Live your life for you. And when you have enough love inside to share, you can give some of your love to him.
LIVE your life, GIVE your love.
Thanks for the reminder ;-)

Single whip
Single Whip (單鞭 dān biān) is a common posture found in most forms of t'ai chi ch'uan. Typically at the end of the posture the left hand is in a palm outward push and the right hand held most commonly in the form of a hook or closed fist. Notable exceptions are the Single Whip in Sun-style and Wu/Hao style t'ai chi ch'uan which finish with both hands open, palms outward.
Single Whip is one of the movements/postures most repeated in the solo training forms. Its first appearance in most forms follows the Grasp Sparrow's Tail sequence (peng, lu, ji, an) and is seen later as a variant renamed Snake Creeps Down. There is also a posture in the Wu style sword form called Single Whip Fusing Throat.
The martial applications of Single Whip are many.[1] There are various strikes, throws, changeups (using one hand to create an opening so that the other can strike) and kicks derived from this posture trained by different schools.
Single Whip is historically a mis-transcription of the posture's original name, which is "Carry Baskets" (擔扁 Dān Biăn).
The mis-transcription most likely came about when Yang Chengfu's (楊澄甫) senior student Chen Weiming (陳微明; Simplified: 陈微明) was writing the names of the moves down (as Yang Chengfu was illiterate, not a disgrace in China at that time as typically only scholars and government officials were literate. Chen Weiming had the Chinese equivalent of a master's degree). As Yang Chengfu pronounced "dān biăn" meaning "Carry Baskets," Chen Weiming probably heard and then wrote down "dān biān" meaning "Single Whip." When Chen Weiming read back "dān biān" meaning "Single Whip," Yang Chengfu probably heard "dān biăn" meaning "Carry Baskets" and then approved the mis-transcription. The pronunciation of dān biān and dān biăn are so close that such a mistake can easily be made.
The name "Carry Baskets" refers to the form at the end of the move, where the outstretched arms of the practitioner evoke the image of one carrying baskets of goods attached to the end of a stick one holds across one's shoulders, a common Chinese and Asian practice.

A singer from Maidenhead made the quite the impression on tonight's episode of The Voice UK.
25-year-old Beth Morris - who was a student at Reading College - was the first to take to the stage and she wowed the judges with her rendition of Tina Turner's"Nutbush City Limits".
Saturday, January 9 saw the first round of try outs for the blind auditions of the BBC singing competition.
She was one of the eleven hopefuls singing for a space on one of the four teams coached by Boy George, Will.i.am, Paloma Faith and Ricky Wilson of the Kaiser Chiefs.
This year, season five sees the addition of Boy George and Paloma Faith as the two new judges joining the superstar line up in the famous spinning red chairs.
Coaches Paloma Faith and Boy George were rocking out in their chairs and liked what they heard within a matter of seconds, pressing their buzzers to turn around for Beth.
Will.i.am wasn't far behind with his buzzer, and Ricky turned in the final second of the song finishing, meaning Beth was faced with a full panel of four coaches to choose from.
Paloma said: "You're a vision, so beautiful."
Will added: "As you went on it got better and better."
Ricky said :"You got the whole crowd going!"
The judges then went on to pitch, verbally battling it out to win over the singer for their team, but Beth was swayed by Paloma as they "clicked straightaway".
Tweets during the show:

4) Beth sings in a band with her brother on bass.
5) She and fiancée Richie have recently moved back in with her Mum, Jenny, who's "a cool mum – she dresses so well. I always forget she's not my age!"
For more info and to follow Beth's progress, visit her Facebook or Twitter page.

Everyone has different experiences but my experience was great. I walked in just to look and all the puppies were up and playing. The store was busy and a young sales girl came over to help me. I told her I couldn't afford a real expensive puppy. She showed me two pom puppies that were discounted because they were 5 1/2 months old. She said the female one was extremely sweet and and a favorite among the staff. I said I couldn't afford the discount and asked if I could get a lower price since I wasn't going to breed the puppy but only wanting her as a pet. The sales girl checked with the owner and the owner gave me an affordable discount so I walked out with an adorable pom. She is white with black ears and black freckles on her nose. She is only 4 lbs and 8 oz and is now almost 8 months old. She is in great health and never had a problem with her health. I named her Blanche and take her everywhere. People love her and always ask me where I got her and I tell them Prince and Princess Pet Shop. I thank the owner for giving me a discount so I was able to buy Blanche. Thanks again, Shelley Werk

Last night, Everett High junior defensive back Lukas Denis announced his verbal commitment to Boston College, becoming the second in-state prospect to pledge with the Eagles this week, and the latest in a prosperous pipeline of Crimson Tide defensive backs to BC.
"I'm proud to say I'm part of something," Denis said of the pipeline between Everett and BC. "The city of Everett is always gonna be at my games. My family is all behind me. I'm very excited."
When Denis arrives in Chestnut Hill in 2015, he will become the fourth Everett player to suit up in the Eagles' secondary since 2008, joining Isaac Johnson, Jim Noel and Manny Asprilla. Noel, the oldest sibling in a gifted family that includes brothers Rodman (NC State football) and Nerlens (Philadelphia 76ers), signed with the Seattle Seahawks for minicamp last spring as an undrafted free agent.
"I've known every single one of those players," Denis said. "I've gotten to know them over a period of time, I've been there to watch them at practice, see how they operate. Their opinion does matter. Getting all that information from them about their positive experience [at BC], I believe it's a great place for me to be.... I believe I had the greatest connection with Manny Asprilla. My brother played with him throughout his years, he was a very humble child."
It's worth noting that all three of those past Everett players -- Johnson, Noel and Asprilla -- all contributed in the Eagles' secondary as true freshmen. The common thread, Denis says, has been their work ethic.
"I would say we're used to working hard, so when we get up there we have an advantage. Most of us are physical, man [to man] type players, which is something they like at BC," Denis said.
As a sophomore in 2012, the 5-foot-11, 170-pound Denis was slated to compete for the starting quarterback job with the graduation of the state's second all-time leader in passing touchdowns, Jonathan DiBiaso. A shoulder injury kept him sidelined for the first half of the season, but he eventually made his impact late in the season as a nickelback.
This past fall, Denis had his breakthrough campaign, earning ESPN Boston All-State honors after helping the Crimson Tide reach the Division 1 North Finals. From the cornerback spot, Denis registered 32 tackles and one interception. As a wide receiver, he had 14 catches for 313 yards and three touchdowns, and returned a punt for another score.
For this season, Denis says he will likely be playing wide receiver again, which means we could see promising youngster Jordan McAfee competing at quarterback.
Denis had a few more quotes for ESPNBoston.com on his commitment to the Eagles:
Factors in his decision: "I realized there was nothing else that I was waiting for that could be bigger than this. This is what I wanted, I felt at home. I have a good relationship with the coaches, they remind me of Everett High. I want to go where I'm comfortable and play for the city that I play for. I guess I would say because I didn't see any other offer that could change my mind, that's just the way I did it."
What he liked about the coaching staff: "The way they operate. The coaches, they know what they want, I like their defense, it fits what I'm capable of -- a lot of man coverage. Their corners are aggressive, they get the chance to go in and make plays instead of waiting for things to happen. At Everett High, when we come across a great receiver-quarterback combination we want to mess up the timing on their route."
What the Eagles like about him: "I believe it's how I can play man, they have man defensive backs [and] I'm usually quite aggressive with receivers. On defense, my mindset is I don't want any receivers catching any passes on me. I don't want them getting off the line of scrimmage."

Campus Housing:
Campus is very diverse and very lively. Everyone is unique. The dorms, especially in RiverView are spacious.
Campus Housing:
Very comfortable, fun, and accessible. Every thing is close by and the dorms are overflowing with life and energy.
Campus Housing:
Overall, I enjoyed the dorm life at UWM. It was very unique because there are quads of dorm rooms instead of hallways like the traditional lay out on other campus'.
Campus Housing:
I loved living in the Music LLC. I met a lot of new friends that way.

I have spilled hand lotion in the front pocket and also I had brushed the side of a dirty car more than once with this on my hip. Well I was nervous, but I emptied it out and sprayed it with a stain remover and threw it in the washing machine on the regular cycle. I pulled it out and turned it inside out to dry for a few hours and then right side and tossed it in the dryer on low for the finish drying. Scary as that was I am not afraid anymore. It can out beautiful just like the day I got it. The dirt smudges were gone, the hand lotion was gone and the bag looks perfect.
I have washed it a few times since; I need to remember not to put it on the floor in the van where the kids can step on it. I have to say that this is one of my favorite bags ever and for Christmas I received the Tote in Floral Nightingale. I look forward to seeing how that bag holds up to all the things I need to take back and forth to work. For Christmas I told everyone I would be happy with anything from Vera Bradley. I think this is a great company with great products.
I love this bag....5 stars all the way!
I highly recommend any Vera Bradley product (and for the most part, Amazon's sellers do a great job of selling the products below the price you would pay in a Vera store).
The colors in Portobello Road are a perfect blend of muted neutrals with fresh pops of color. There are two stripes of a complimenting pattern on the front side. That same pattern is also seen on the inside of the bag as well as inside of the outside pockets. There is one zippered and one open pocket on the front side, one zippered pocket on the back side, and three open pockets on the inside. The strap is adjustable, and is attached by thick shinny silver toned rings.
Another thing I like about Vera bags is the ability to machine wash. Simply remove the cardboard base, turn inside out, spot treat, and machine wash on the cold delicate cycle. Reform, air dry, et voila! I absolutely love this thing!

Eco friendly house with 4 bedrooms. This house has been built with the environment in mind. Air Source Heat Pump, rainwater harvester and environmentally friendly building materials have been used to make this house as carbon neutral as possible. The property is ideally located to enjoy the beach, nearby Chichester, local facilities like The Lifeboat in and Goodwood with its horse races and car shows
I booked this house for a special weekend away with the Lads. It didn't disappoint, the house is amazing with plenty of room. The decking area facing the sea is spectacular and the living area is the perfect chill out lounge.
If you're looking for a more chilled party house this is a must.
Very much a wow factor on arrival. Good lay out for socialising . Nice to be close to beach and town with nice walks. A deeper look into property general plates , cups and mugs etc are a bit of a miss mass. Garden needs attention . Overall thou the wow factor remained .
Amazing space, lovely views, very comfortable, very quirky, thoroughly reccomend it.
My friends and I spent a couple of nights here towards the end of May, we were pretty excited after checking the pictures on the website so many times! But that first moment you take in the view... It's stunning, there were 6 of us and each one of us were lost for words.
It's a huge place, with plenty of space for everyone to spread out and relax. The observation room is pretty unique and a nice place to sit during the evening if it gets a bit chilly. The pebble beach is quiet and private and having a path that leads to it makes it feel like your own personal beach.
We would definitely stay here again and if you get the right weather then you're in for a treat.
We were a group of 9 Ladies and stayed at the house for a peaceful weekend break. The house is brilliantly designed to maximise the views and has so many lovely touches, the bath looking out over the sea and the sun terraces on both sides. Even though there was a lot of us, the open plan aspect meant we never felt crowed. The house was kitted out with everything we needed including a great BBQ, plenty of comfortable places to sit and sunbath, fabulous kitchen and more than enough bathrooms. The owner also was great to deal with and always got back to me promptly if I had any questions regarding the house. Such a wonderful weekend was had, the only negertive was having to leave!
We had a girl's weekend here (7 of us). The house is so beautiful and was perfect for us. The first floor living space (with views out to sea) is all open plan so, it's a really sociable house and we all got to spend lots of quality time together. The bedrooms were great too with lots of comfy beds and sleeping up to 10. I think all of us would liked to have moved in! The beach is great for walks and we sampled the local pub, but as the house was so great, we just wanted to spend most of our time there. I can't recommend this place enough and hope we'll be back soon.
As a seaside town, Selsey offers everyone good beaches, clean water, wonderful seafood, excellent sea fishing opportunities and some of the best sunshine in the UK. You will notice that Selsey is a quiet place, not least because there isn't any through traffic, everyone who is here is here because they want to be. Visit the most southerly point in West Sussex. Selsey's history includes a vital link with the D Day landings. Some of the Mulberry Harbours were hidden off Selsey during the build up to the landings.
Selsey also proud itself of its link with the RNLI and visitors can visit the boathouse and see, close up, the amazing equipment that modern sea rescue demands.
One of the main local attractions is Chichester Harbour. Bright wide expanses and intricate creeks are at the same time a major wildlife haven and among some of Britain's most popular boating waters. This unique area has quite rightly been designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
