I have to give credit to my wife for finding this “off-topic” gem.
In what could be one of the greatest travel short cuts of all time, she had found this gem while browsing “Pinterest” showing how anyone can program an elevator to go directly to their desired floor and eliminate the annoying stops along the way. This comes in REALLY HANDY when you are on a high floor and want to get to the lobby without being the “local” elevator stopping on every floor.
Not sure if this will work on every elevator, but it may be worth a shot!
This coding is apparently built into some elevators as a safety mechanism which allows emergency workers to access any floor without interruption.
The instructions are self-explanatory in this image:

Now through September 24, you can book Lufthansa’s fantastic First Class service at great low fares for the upcoming Holiday season. The fares in some cases are MORE THAN HALF OFF of their normal rates and cover all of Lufthansa’s US gateway cities. This creates a great opportunity to head to Europe for the Christmas Market season that start in November/December! London seems to be the lowest cost destination with the fare from New York and Boston being only $4199.
If you’ve been a reader of my site for any length of time you no doubt know what my opinion is of Lufthansa’s First Class product. With fares like this, it’s a great opportunity to experience Lufthansa’s hospitality and not to mention get yourself that Duck that you’ve always wanted! Additionally for you mileage runners, you’ll earn 3x miles for most of your Star Alliance frequent flyer accounts when flying Lufthansa’s First Class.
The calendar for this fare sale is as follows:
Tickets must be booked by September 24:
For Thanksgiving:
You must depart between November 18 and 23, 2012.
You must return between November 23 and 28, 2012.
For Christmas:
You must depart between December 17, 2012 and January 4, 2013.
You must return between December 25 and January 9, 2013.
