DO NOT BUY ONEIDA STAINLESS
.Real stainless steel is supposed to not rust. This product rusts because Oneida replaced the old 18/10 stainless with El Cheapo 18/0 (read the other reviews here).

Great Product While It Lasted
We received the twilight turtle constellation nightlight at the beginning of September 2008 and it was wonderful. My two 1/2 year old son was thrilled. We used it every night. Unfortunately in December 2008 it just stopped working. I replaced the batteries (with 4 new sets of batteries, just in case) and even tried to look inside unfortunately you can't reach anything unless you rip the turtle part out. I tried contacting both customer service departments, but no response. My son is extremely disappointed and so am I.

Too bad I didn't finish it...
This is definitely one of the greatest books I've ever read. It was so hard to put it down after starting it. But when I got about half-way thru it, I decided it was time for me to stop. Dan Brown is a brilliant man, but he needs to check his sources if he wants to slag the Catholic church like that. I've been a Caholic since I was a week old and it's a huge part of who I am. Most of the historical information presented in the book is false, but he seems to clearly state otherwise in the introduction. Opus Dei is real, but nothing like what happened in the book would ever happen in real life. I just find it deeply offensive that Dan Brown writes about another instance where the Catholic church is being humiliated, even though it is ficticious, in the midst of the sex-abuse scandal wew are facing right now. So overall, enjoy the story, but ignore the historical info.

Bought New, Looks Used
I received a defective football but had to give it to an 8 yr old last night for Hanukkah so there was no time to return it. The ball was discolored, almost looked dirty. Some of the black print was wearing off in various spots and there was some plastic red stuff but the hole where you put air in the ball. I bought it new and it looks used. My nephew didn't care b/c he's 8 but I would have preferred to not give a gift that started out in that condition. I would have hoped whoever shipped this would have inspected the product first, especially since I see other reviews with the same issue.

A peaceful easy feeling
I think the fact I've now ordered and sent this book to five other people, including both my 89 year old mother-in-law and 79 year old mother speaks volumes as to my opinion of this book. I do yoga so the idea of pursuing meditation was a natural progression. However, I found this book to be a wonderful way to get started in learning to meditate. Easy to read and easy to do. Only requires 8 minutes a day. What's to stop you? I am in week 7 (of 8 weeks) and I am getting good. I look forward to it and I am looking forward to extending my meditation periods (an option). I meditate with my husband. It is a very calming practice. If you've always wanted to try meditating, start with this book. You'll be hooked.

Not for beginners or those with any type of back issues.
This video is most definitely NOT for beginners. The basics of proper body positioning such as how much of the lumbar or thoracic back should be touching the mat in a relaxed supine position aren't even touched on . And not nearly as much of a warm as it suggests. Also, the morning stretch while is thorough in leg and lower to mid back stretches, it is not nearly enough for upper back or cervical neck especially for those that have any type of desk job. The video itself is nicely produced and great scenery but I prefer to focus on my body more than the t.v. screen other than watching for instruction.

Portofino
Portofino- an excellent "novel" that brings out the cynicism in us all. Laughing at ourselves and others' fundamentally liberal and narrow experiences provides a nice catharsis. Those in the fold can chuckle. And those who have viewed the fold from the outside can scratch their head and go about their own merry fundamental way.

Sad Disappointment
I've been a hard-core gamer since the days of Intellivision, and this release is BY FAR the most disappointing video game purchase I have ever made. I loved all of the NES and Super Nintendo Mega Man games. The strategy was simple: a lot of really hard gaming sequences in which you acquired a special weapon or power that you would need later.I guess Capcom was trying to come up with a Zelda-esque plot line, but this is childish ... and an insult to the Mega Man fan base. Capcom should have created some more mature levels emulating the Super Mario 64 level designs. Instead, they wasted a lot of time on infantile dialogue sequences and shockingly weak graphics. This product was thrown together to sell solely on the name of Mega Man. It is a disgrace.

More time Fixing, Less time on actual internet
OMG!!! Every time i turn on my computer, it tells me that a new router has been detected. after sitting at my computer for 20-30 min. trying to fix it i get it to work. then after browsing around the web for another 20-30 min. i lose my conection. Eventhough all the correct lights are turned on both the router and the modem. Again i have to open up the settings and wait for such a long time to do everything. I have Windows XP with sp2, my internet was working fine with just the modem, but wanted to go wireless. i regret the purchase now.

Eureka !! , I've found it, A piece of JUNK!
I purchased mine when they were merging with Electrolux so mine has an Electrolux cogged drive belt which eureka nor any service center knows about. You got it, my belt broke after 2 weeks of use. The customer service people at eureka are all about 16 years of age and know nothing. The supervisors are nearing 18 and know less. Bottom line no help at all. As far as eureka is concerned, my model does not exist. Buyer BEWARE, purchase anything but a eureka product. I purchased a Bissel for one third the price, all the parts are readily available, and it works great.

no hassle set up and use.
Controls everything. With the programming done on their website, it couldn't be easier. Your system components are up to date. and your specific configuration is backed up automatically. All you do is log in answer a few questions about what you've got and everything is ready to go. The components are all set up and macros for activities are automatically ready to go. It's no hassle, you can manually change some things to work more to your liking if needed also.

My First Lab Ultimate Digital Microscope MFL-85We had problems with the CD Rom included in the microscope. The program would not load onto the computer, we complained to the manufacturer and were told they would send us a return shipping box to change out the defective CD Rom.

numotizine review
I have used numorizine for over 40 years. Itis a pink miracle in a jar. My youngest child had pneumonia when she was very, very young. I asked the doctor not to put her in the hospital. He recommended numotizine and it got rid of the pneumonia. It works on everythings from sprained muscles to resporatory illnesses and everything in between. Be sure and follow directions.

Inspirational, a great insight into an amazing race
This movie inspired me to start riding in the dirt, but even my friends who would never get on a bike enjoyed this movie. The helicopter and in car action shots are breathtaking, the pacing is spot on, the music fits, the people are interesting, and on and on. It really gives you a taste of what this amazing race must be like, and for someone like me, it changed my life.

I couldn't even finish
I love books. I love St. Louis. I love sports. However, I could not even finish this book. I got it for 50 cents at the library and was quick to realize why the previous owner was able to part with it. The most enjoyable thing was that the book is so bad that someone wrote tiny notes towards the end about how pointless most of the stories were.

Although I regularly purchase, Davinci Pumpkin Spice SAUCE, and will continue to do so; the syrup was a big dissapointment. To me it had very little flavor at all,much less pumpkin pie. I do not mean to down the brand, because I LOVE the SAUCE (pumpkin pie) from DaVinci. I wish I could get a refund on the syrup.

Ehhhhh....
I recently purchased this and found some problems with it. Apparently, St.Clair Vision cannot afford to restore any films on their DVDs. Some of the Laurel and Hardy solos are good, but the technology is available to restore these films. The Buster Keaton films are of poor, grainy quality and feature inadequate music. They look like they were transferred from a VHS tape. Swing Parade abruptly stops in the middle of the DVD and shuts my DVD player down. The "stunt reels" are just clips pulled together from films already on these discs. The 4 three stooges Columbia shorts are released often and can be found, fully restored on The Three Stooges Collection DVDs, which I own. The General, College, and Steamboat Bill, jr can be found in better quality on the Keaton DVDs released by Kino. I am a fan of all of these comedians, but better quality and better presentation will be found elsewhere. Dont waste your money on this.

not much information
If you don't have A LOT of martial arts experience, this video is pretty advanced. Showed some basic stuff to do with the fans, but I was expecting more ideas of things to do, how to build a elegant yet intimidating weapos form. That said, I like the fans and since the video have figured out that basically any move you do you can incorporate the fans.

This is definitely not her best work.
I have been reading books written by Danielle Steel for about 25 years now. Her first books seemed to have more developed characters and were more complex with a good story line. This book, like her others, is about beautiful, rich, people but it is very blah. The word "and" is used so many times it becomes almost comical. It reminds me of developing writers, always adding details with ands. I didn't even finish this book. It definitely lets your mind wander while reading. I found this book lacking in all areas.

Missing Track on MP3 Download Version
I have been a big fan of the Eagles since the early 70's. I own 12 of their CDs, and just purchased the Selected Works 1972 - 1999 as an MP3 Download. In reveiwing the list it appears that "Love Will Keep Us Alive" is missing from the download version. It's listed as #10 on Disc 2 - The Ballads, and #23 of the entire collection. Fortunately, I have this song from the "Hell Freezes Over" CD so I'm able to complete the set.I purchased this set only because of the "Millennium Concert" Disc. I could have created my own version of this set; however, without the Millennium Concert versions of songs, it would not have been the same.To me, I can never get enough of the Eagles.

Lacking in style and originality
Switchblade Symphony's first album was carried along by simple, melodic music and a great voice. It soothed the listener and was very good gothic if not terribly talented musically, voice notwithstanding. Their second attempt adds bad, almost hip hop or techno beats and kills the gothic vibe entirely...the voice still soars but it does not mix with the music well. I'm of the opinion that the singer should go solo and drop the keyboardist and the rest of the band...since her voice is now the only saving grace. This album lacks in style, grace, talent and substance.

Get this book and start brewing!
I got this book as part of a homebrewing kit a year ago. It is probably the best beginners book out there for brewing beer at home. From the step by step instructions for making your very first brew to the many recipes for different beer styles and even a chapter on growing your own hops. This is the A-Z homebrew bible.The theme: "Relax, Don't Worry, Have a Hombrew!"...and that is the essence of this book. The experienced brewer knows that homebrewing involves strict attention to detail, especially in the area of sanitation, and it can be easy to forget as you go through the process again and again that the _real_ purpose of brewing is to have fun. It's a scientific process, but the bottom line is to enjoy the experience from beginning to end and that is what this book is all about.For those who have always wanted to try homebrewing, but thought it would be too difficult or too expensive or too whatever... Get this book and start brewing. You'll be glad you did!

I wouldn't recommend it
I've ordered Large/Extra Large model, and barely can get them on (getting them off is even harder) even though my hand doesn't exceed what's normally considered Large. Threads are hanging from various spots, indicating poor manufacturing quality. Price was good, so I will use them until they break and buy another make/model next time.

listening for years
These are masterpieces of the literature. Few 20th centurystring quartets are full of light. These are. The reviewer below (above) from Australia who mentions "atonal"is as far off the mark as one could get. These are supremely tonal pieces, in fact very conservatively so. In fact,there is not an atonal moment in them, they are more firmly rooted in tonal centers than even Bartok, Hindemith and Ravel quartets of the early part of the century. The comments about small fragments are correct however. These are mosaic structures of great beauty. Other quartets which are crafted similarly are those by Stravinsky. Imagine a more Slavic flavor and you have Janacek.

Just the right size
This nutmeg/ginger grater is just the right size to grate small amounts of hard, grateable ingredients into a bowl, saute pan, or sauce pan. It fits into the palm of my hand and is easily grabbable from the kitchen cupboard right above my mixing area. I had been looking for the right nutmeg grater for months, and that's what I'll be using it for, but it will probably work for parmesan cheese and ginger root as well.

DO NOT BUY!
I bought 2, being stupid and thinking they would surely fit my standard-size, 7", Coby DVD players. They did not. When I went to return them, they said that, in addition to paying the return shipping, I had to pay a $15 "restocking fee"! So, $25 to return 2 items totalling $33?! Also, the return policy is very tricky and time-consuming, akin to those "we hope you get so frustrated you never fill it out" rebate cards.As to the product, I ordered 2 of the same thing, and 1 is differnent than the other! They are shoddy and have a lot of different places where the craftmanship seems poor.Overall, below average product from a company with horrible service- if you're going to roll the dice on the low price, good luck!

Horrible!
I've never read a Star Wars book with so many continuity mistakes! What are the editors paid for? Certainly not for preventing mistakes. WJW practically ignored the 4 books that came out before DW!Some characters have been messed up so badly it hurt (Kyp, Jaina), the only one I liked in DW was Vergere, but they had to get rid of her, too, like they do with all the interesting characters.The Yuuzhan Vong intelligence is decreasing more with each book. When they were introduced as such powerful enemies I thought the people responsible for the NJO had a good idea of how they would still loose at the end, but unfortunately my expectations were too high, again.DelRey should get a new team for the SW novels...

The BEST "mango in a container" product ever!
Item arrived quickly and frozen on dry ice. After sampling a thawed container, I have to say this is the best canned mango product I've tried. It was very sweet like a fresh mango should taste....NOT like the typical flavorless mango mush in heavy syrup. This would be good for anything requiring mangos from a fruit smoothie to mango nut bread to mango wine. I've got 6 gallons of mango wine going and so far so good!I also contacted The Perfect Puree's customer service before ordering and they provided me with the information I needed on sugar content.Will definitely buy more and possibly try some of the other purees they sell.

Too Much Heat
I have experience with two Sunbeam bread machines. The model 5895 and 5891. The 5895 is no longer inproduction. However, the 5895 is far and away a better machine. The two 5891 units I have experience with both have had heat control problems. The newest one has to be run on the "light" setting as the other two settings make the bread too dark. However, I will say that the non stick coating on the tub of the 5891 is much better than that on the 5895.In addition, it seems almost impossible to see and read the display without a flashlight on the 5891. I suspect the microprogram chip on the 5891 has a software problem controlling the heat ranges. Further, I don't appreciate the fact that the price has been reduced by $10.00 since I place my order less than 30 days ago.

DREADFUL
After all the the hype about this being a "thinking" mans picture, I was amazed at how dull flatles, and enexciting it was. It's filled with cliches about the uinfairness and meaningless of war, and suggests that war is horrrible (big surprise). All this dim store philosophy is provided by a droning overvoice.. There is also the usual bit about a mean and heartless officer, of course, with Nick Nolte shouting enough to alert the enemy.Sean penn,nott known for well potraying soldiers inbatt, shows mis meaness by rollong his eyes and saying thing like, "Get up or I'll kick you in the guts."The music score consists of a kind mournful droning on an d on.verything attepted in this one is far surpassed Private Ryan.

Always a pleasure as a Prime Member to purchase from Amazon, as they stand behind their word when shipping their products.
I bought Law & Order Criminal Intent The Second Year to add to my collection. Vincent D'Onofrio is my favorite character of the show. I have missed many of the shows on TV and now will be able to sit down and watch them when I have time from the very beginning to end without worrying about missing anything in between. If you haven't ever watched Law & Order Criminal Intent, I will have to admit that it is a great show and will hold your attention to the very end. I will continue to purchase the series up until Vincent D'Onofrio is no longer in the cast since they have dismissed him from the show, as I'm not sure if I'll be as interested in the show as I once was. I'll just have to wait and see. I will have to say that you can't go wrong with the purchase of this series.Again, thanks to Amazon for their absolutely wonderful service!!

DO NOT BUY THIS CAMERA!!!!
I am terribly discussed with this purchase. I bought this camera on my way to the Houston Astrodome to welcome the evacuee's from Louisiana. I most definitely wanted pictures of what I witnessed. Guess what!! NOT ONE PICTURE TURNED OUT!!I am irate, to say the least. I trusted this product and was let down during one of our countries historic events. Simply returning this camera and getting my money back DOES NOT begain to repay me.The program itself is complicated, from the driver download process to viewing the photos. I saw my pictures only once, then could never find them again. I took several pictures and some short video, but found that none of them had been saved in the camera.Vivitar, you owe me a HUGE appology. How can you sell a product like this for more than $10 which I happen to think is too much for it.

Don't Buy This CD
Most of the songs are not the originals. In "Along Comes Mary" they can't even hit the high notes. The Turtles sound like the original songs, but the quality is very poor. Save your money and buy something better, like the "Super Hits of the 70's" series.

You can do better
At first I was okay with these speakers. They were ... and weak of course, but I wasn't expecting much for the price. Then I started having constant crackling and popping noises whenever there was any bass whatsoever(at any volume). I guess if you don't care about sound AT ALL, these will work fine. They won't even replace a basic CD-player for music purposes though. If you want to play games or listen to music ever, but don't have much to spend, splurge just a tad and for $... you can pick up the Labtec Pulse-424 3 piece setup. Those are an amazing steal. Normally I think Altec-Lansing makes good stuff. Who knows maybe I got a bad set? But they were unbearable.

Everything that can be said about this superb story, production, acting, etc. has been said. I was so disappointed, however, when I saw that the color in the DVD was really dreadful.

I had just about worn out my video when I bought the DVD - I guess I'll have to buy the video again.

Arrogance Redefined
This was my first, and most assuredly my last experience with Agent Pendergast. Bat Man, James Bond and a host of other independently wealthy crime fighters are portrayed in Agent Pendergast. The unreality of the plot as well as much of the action makes this novel tedious and boring.The novel ends with Agent Pendergast in jail and his maniacal brother still on the loose.Compared to the personalities deveolped by Michael Connolly or Patricia Cornwell, this novel is not even in the same league.

Don't get me wrong I'm a huge Metallica fan but this CD was more than disipointing. I purchased this CD the first day it was in the stores. The first thing I did when I got home was take the wrapping of the horrible case. For some reason they made a little slip in the case where they slid the CD in. I took the cd out and it was horrible scratched. Buyer beware this might have happened to other CD's but it doesn't stop there. The songs were horrible compared to the songs on previous CD's. It was just thrown together with no thought put into it. The only reason I gave this 2 stars is because of the song unkown feeling which is a decent song. I dont recomend getting this CD.

Very Disappointing
My 8 yr. old daughter was so excited to purchase this item, but what a huge disappointment it was after getting it home. She has only been able to open the journal a couple of times because of the ultra sensitive voice activating password system. She has repeatedly uttered her password the same way hundreds of times, and only periodically does it unlock and open as it is suppose to. I would not recommend purchasing this journal as your child will become extremely frustrated over it's improper password function.

Worked well for a year, then cable came loose from plug
After some issues getting the item delivered from CarrotIdea, it did finally arrive. The item worked well for over a year, but now the cable has started to come loose from the plug that connects to the shuffle. Some small wires are now sticking out and the cable is no longer recognized by the USB of any computer.I have not really been able to find any other options that are better which work for the 2nd generation and work with the shuffle's case.

What a rip off!
I was in shock when I got this book!! I paid $10 for this puney little booklet. It's work about $3....THEN today I notice that they are charging $3.99...more like it. I would have NEVER ordered this book if I knew that it was a stupid little booklet. What a rip off! Very disappointed!

boring and not diverse
The 30 min and full workout are the exact same except the full workout is just repeated. Didn't feel like a good workout.

Absolutely lovely
Impressionist Palette is a wonderful little book. The author utilizes a marvelous grasp of colour and design and makes design accessible to even those who feel that they don't have the ability to 'do colour'. I haven't made any of the quilts in the book yet, but I do like to pull it off my shelf and just enjoy this little jewel of a book.

interesting set of standards
mr. haynes continues to be a part of jazz's elder statesmen making tremendous performances of late (see also max roach/clark terry's "friendship" or keith jarrett's "up for it.")this collection of standards recorded by the japanese 88 label and picked up by columbia is a superb album. the ensemble swings with abandon and finds new twists and turns in very familiar tunes. mr. haynes leads the charge laying down a consistent groove on drums. he shows again and again how these songs are love letters, not only in their own content, but in the message the band conveys to the listener. this is well worth having.

DO NOT BUY --- DEPLORABLE QUALITY, SPLINTERS
I purchased two gates for to use as baby barriers. The quality is beyond incredibly bad. Rough cut trash wood full of splinters. A total waste of money.

CRUSTY!!! ITS ARE TRYING TO TAKE OVER, BUT WON'T SUCCEED!
I really hate the girls that sing (a.k.a. hanson) They REALLY disgust me! I'd rather eat 15 tons of dog crap then listen to their music. They have wrecked the whole concept of pop music! Why did they make money off of saying the words mmm bop??? How hard is that!? I could make a song with the words shut the **** up hanson. What's up with brotherly bondage? And why do they order their clothes from Delia's (a teenage girls catalog)? If they're going to have long hair, why don't they do anything with it? I despise little boys that look like girls who try to do a musical act with no talent. Shouldn't some of them have girlfriends right now? Or, do they prefer each other? Sorry to all you hanson wannabes, but, go to some Chuck E. Cheese joint. I'm sure their music will have a greater impact on your brain. You can be so much smarter than to admire hippies.

This Book Has No "Soul"
I've heard a lot about Richard Price. He's a great writer. Good ear. Knows his stuff, etc. etc. And he may be all of these things, have all these capabilities; but this is a downer book. I picked it up, read the first fifty pages, glanced at some middle parts and read the ending and put it down as a waste of time. Noir all the way. Conventional characters. Depressing - nay, deadly, locale. And in the end it gets you absolutely nowhere. Nothing there at all.

JUNK-CANO!
We set up Slimecano on Christmas morning, and are ready to write to Mattel. They really "slimed" out on the fabrication of this thing. It is so poorly made, there is not one car that has made it around the track yet. The tracks bend like licorice, like there is some shortage of decent plastic in the world or something, the cars can't even get to the top of the track with their provided launcher, and the slime is on everything! You are supposed to wipe this down after each use.. hmmm.. how long is that going to take with all the crevices and parts on this thing? I want my MONEY BACK!!! This toy is worth about 9.99 in my opinion, not the 40- I paid for it! My son is so mad at this toy, the tracks keep falling apart he is just disgusted at this point. Definitely next week's garage sale giveaway...They really failed making this one...

Amusement Park Tycoon
Let's face it, that's what it should be called. Not that I dislike the game. I spent several hours playing it and built myself quite an empire.But the main thing I wanted was something to design rides on. And this one yeah you can ride the rides, but you're still limited by the prefab modules you have to stick to.Ultimate Ride Coaster: Disney Editionmay be better if, like me, you want more options. With the Disney coaster you have your prefab modules, but you can tweak them and customize them a bit more, and you can add sounds, etc. There is also a game mode, but it's more about having challenges of rides to build.Of course if you really want the ultimate customizability with the steep learning curve that goes with it, look into No Limits Coaster.

Great Dreamweaver reference
As a user of Dreamweaver with a good understanding of the basics, I found this book very helpful. It is well written, easy to read and doesn?t assume you know anything about Dreamweaver. I picked up many useful tips on things I had forgotten or not known and feel more confident tackling the more advanced features which I had not used before. SAMS Teach Yourself Macromedia Dreamweaver 4 in 24 Hours would be very useful, particularly for beginning and intermediate users of Dreamweaver 4.

A Great Book, Give It to Friends for the Holidays
This book is a wonderful work about contemporary American families by Al and Tipper Gore. It discusses how the family has evolved in our country, how families cope with all the pressures of modern life, and how families still manage to pull together. Mr. and Mrs. Gore have produced a very thoughtful book that ought to be read by many Americans. I very highly recommend it as a holiday gift. I have bought several copies to give as gifts to my (extended) family members. This book, with its emphasis on the family and love, stands in stark contrast to the Iraq war-provoking tendencies of the current Resident of the White House. Clearly, the wrong person became President in 2001. Hopefully, Mr. Gore will run again, get elected in 2004, and become a great president starting in 2005.

It's super ugly!
I had this phone for 2 days before I decided to return it. The main reason was because of the size. It's gotta be the biggest phone, by far, that Cingular offers. I know a lot of people like big phones, but I swear this phone was designed for Shaq. The phone is also the ugliest phone that Cingular has. It's really fat and it has an internal antenna, which some people like, but I personally think it hurts the looks of the phone. I also found the "click" noise the phone made everytime I opened it annoying.The phone does have some pretty good features that I guess will appeal to a lot of people. It has EDGE for data, but I'm to poor to afford going online on my phone. It also has a 500+ space phone book, but I am a loner and I don't know that many people so that doesn't affect me either. In the end, I traded it for a Samsung E317 which I think has a better camera and screen.

Let the buyer beware!
Big rip off. I got the cable to work one time and that was it, after that no matter what I tried, or downloaded or reinstalled the product was not supported. I am going to buy the expensive one now, how do you spell "caveat emptor" let the buyer beware?

This course helped us so much.
I highly recommend this DVD if you need to prepare for your first dance. We started out having no idea how to dance and followed each step of this video. The dance moves were easy to follow and with practice we were able to do them naturally and with ease. We then practiced the moves with our song for a few nights before our wedding. The result was great! We did a wonderful first dance and received commments such as: "Did you take dancing lessons?". Not too much time is needed to practice, but we did it slowly, in 3 weeks a few minutes every night. Actually it was fun and romantic, and we made a really nice dance at our wedding. Afterwards, we used our moves and turns because we are now dance partners as well.

no better than the average alarm clock
I am a heavy sleeper that struggles to get up in the morning. After reading about "Clocky" I felt certain that this alarm would do the trick. Unfortunately I found it to be no better than any average alarm clock. In theory this is how it works: when the alarm goes off, "Clocky" rolls off of whatever surface you put it on, then proceeds to roll and spin around the floor, so that you have to physically get up and get it. However, I found that at times clocky did not even roll off of the nightstand and would instead knock things off the nightstand. When it does roll off the nightstand, it does not roll very far away from the bed (which was the main problem) and I was generally able to grab clocky and snooze without getting out of bed. I found that I am better off putting an alarm in my bathroom (that adjoins my room) so that I have to physically get out of bed.

I saw a mention of Elle Decor magazine on E! News, and it looked like such a great magazine for people interested in interior design and the art of home decorating. I had never heard of this magazine, and I'm glad I got a good holiday deal on it from Amazon.

Love this Pan
I really love this pan. Was looking for an alternative to teflon and teflon like products. This is it. You can't abuse it though, heat it slowly and don't turn it too high and it will do the trick. After washing, wipe it with a thin coat of oil. Not exactly like teflon but close enough. I got what I wanted, use of less oil and no teflon health risks.

fairly technical but interesting book on fossil birds
Chatterjee does a great job in presenting his case for Protoavis, a bird that may very well precede the famous Archaeopteryx of the Jurassic. Though a bit technical at times, it has a good overview of bird evolution and of fossil birds throughout the Mesozoic and throughout the Cenozoic, with excellent coverage of many Tertiary species, especially at Green River(from the Eocene of Wyoming) and Messel (from the Eocene of Central Europe). Their relationship to dinosaurs is well covered, and some time is spent on the K/T event that ended much Mesozoic life. Numerous diagrams and illustrations and a thorough bibliography. While not all may agree with his take on Protoavis, this remains a worthwhile on avian evolution and fossil bird speciesA good book.

Questions the morality of both capitalism & socialism
This book is a must read for all who desire to investigate the morality of economic and social systems. It lays plain the immorality of not only socialism, but capitalism as practiced today.The modern era of industrialism with its supposed abolition of slavery actually has resulted in the vast majority of men & women worse off than that of slaves - slaves without the benevolence of masters.Written in anti-bellum days, the ideas of this book have been buried underneath the rubble of the conquest of the confederacy. While Fitzhugh's ideas are in need of further exploration, such has never been done since his ideas are discarded by the feminized society in which we live. Hopefully they may rise again to be considered.

The perfect size!
At first I thought it was too small - but I was wrong. It is perfect for bringing my lunch to work (microwave use). With the need to get rid of all the plastic in our lives, this is the perfect addition to my lunch bag!
