Ginsu 04817 International Traditions 14-Piece Knife Set with Block, Natural List Price: $49.99 Sale Price: $27.60 |
|
Many associate Ginsu knives with the product’s kitschy infomercial from the â70s that begins with a karate kick to a watermelon and proceeds with a demo of these knives cutting through just about anything in the house. Like the original product, Ginsu’s International Traditions is designed for the home cook who is not attuned to the maintenance required of a more high-end knife. However, this line is an improvement on the original, offering the weight, balance, and style of a commercial-quality knife, while meeting current design trends and performance expectations. This 14-piece set stocks a kitchen with most cutlery needs, and packs all knives in a contemporary black hardwood storage block. The set includes: an 8-inch chef’s knife, an 8-inch slicer, a 7-inch santoku knife, a 5-1/2-inch boning knife, a 5-inch utility knife, a 3-1/2-inch paring knife, and six 4-1/2-inch steak knives, plus a pair of shears. Ginsu blades are constructed from stainless steel and feature a two-dimensional serrated edge that is symmetrically cut on either side for more accurate slicing and for either right- or left-handed use. Edges are still as low-maintenance as ever and never require sharpening. The blades have full tangs that extend through lightweight bakelite handles and are triple-riveted for strength. Ginsu covers these International Traditions knives under a limited, lifetime warranty and recommends manual cleaning with hot, soapy water to keep them in top shape. What’s in the Box3-1/2-inch paring knife, 5-inch utility knife, 5-1/2-inch boning knife, 7-inch santoku knife, 8-inch slicer, 8-inch chef’s knife, six 4-1/2-inch steak knives, shears, hardwood block |

Star Trek: Original Motion Picture Collection (Star Trek I, II, III, IV, V, VI + The Captain's Summit Bonus Disc) [Blu-ray] List Price: $99.99 Sale Price: $57.79 |
|
Star Trek I : The Original Motion PictureBack when the first Star Trek feature was released in December 1979, the Trek franchise was still relatively modest, consisting of the original TV series, an animated cartoon series from 1973-74, and a burgeoning fan network around the world. Series creator Gene Roddenberry had conceived a second TV series, but after the success of Star Wars the project was upgraded into this lavish feature film, which reunited the original series cast aboard a beautifully redesigned starship U.S.S. Enterprise. Under the direction of Robert Wise (best known for West Side Story), the film proved to be a mixed blessing for Trek fans, who heatedly debated its merits; but it was, of course, a phenomenal hit. Capt. Kirk (William Shatner) leads his crew into the vast structures surrounding V'Ger, an all-powerful being that is cutting a destructive course through Starfleet space. With his new First Officer (Stephen Collins), the bald and beautiful Lieutenant Ilia (played by the late Persis Khambatta) and his returning veteran crew, Kirk must decipher the secret of V'Ger's true purpose and restore the safety of the galaxy. The story is rather overblown and derivative of plots from the original series, and avid Trekkies greeted the film's bland costumes with derisive laughter. But as a feast for the eyes, this is an adventure worthy of big-screen trekkin'. Douglas Trumbull's visual effects are astonishing, and Jerry Goldmith's score is regarded as one of the prolific composer's very best (with its main theme later used for Star Trek: The Next Generation). And, fortunately for Star Trek fans, the expanded 143-minute version (originally shown for the film's network TV premiere) is generally considered an improvement over the original theatrical release. --Jeff ShannonStar Trek II :The Wrath of KhanAlthough Star Trek: The Motion Picture had been a box-office hit, it was by no means a unanimous success with Star Trek fans, who responded much more favorably to the "classic Trek" scenario of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. Inspired by the "Space Seed" episode of the original TV series, the film reunites newly promoted Admiral Kirk with his nemesis from the earlier episode--the genetically superior Khan (Ricardo Montalban)--who is now seeking revenge upon Kirk for having been imprisoned on a desolated planet. Their battle ensues over control of the Genesis device, a top-secret Starfleet project enabling entire planets to be transformed into life-supporting worlds, pioneered by the mother (Bibi Besch) of Kirk's estranged and now-adult son. While Mr. Spock mentors the young Vulcan Lt. Saavik (then-newcomer Kirstie Alley), Kirk must battle Khan to the bitter end, through a climactic starship chase and an unexpected crisis that will cost the life of Kirk's closest friend. This was the kind of character-based Trek that fans were waiting for, boosted by spectacular special effects, a great villain (thanks to Montalban's splendidly melodramatic performance), and a deft combination of humor, excitement, and wondrous imagination. Director Nicholas Meyer (who would play a substantial role in the success of future Trek features) handles the film as a combination of Moby Dick, Shakespearean tragedy, World War II submarine thriller, and dazzling science fiction, setting the successful tone for the Trek films that followed. --Jeff ShannonStar Trek III : The Search for Spock You didn't think Mr. Spock was really dead, did you? When Spock's casket landed on the surface of the Genesis planet at the end of Star Trek II, we had already been told that Genesis had the power to bring "life from lifelessness." So it's no surprise that this energetic but somewhat hokey sequel gives Spock a new lease on life, beginning with his rebirth and rapid growth as the Genesis planet literally shakes itself apart in a series of tumultuous geological spasms. As Kirk is getting to know his estranged son (Merritt Butrick), he must also do battle with the fiendish Klingon Kruge (Christopher Lloyd), who is determined to seize the power of Genesis from the Federation. Meanwhile, the regenerated Spock returns to his home planet, and Star Trek III gains considerable interest by exploring the ceremonial (and, of course, highly logical) traditions of Vulcan society. The movie's a minor disappointment compared to Star Trek II, but it's a--well, logical--sequel that successfully restores Spock (and first-time film director Leonard Nimoy) to the phenomenal Trek franchise...as if he were ever really gone. With Kirk's willful destruction of the U.S.S. Enterprise and Robin Curtis replacing the departing Kirstie Alley as Vulcan Lt. Saavik, this was clearly a transitional film in the series, clearing the way for the highly popular Star Trek IV. --Jeff ShannonStar Trek IV : The Voyage Home Jumping on to the end-of-the-century bandwagon a little early, Paramount Pictures released 10 of their top films in one 10-pack, the Millennium Collection, in 1998. All the films are presented in their widescreen editions; one, Breakfast at Tiffany's, is offered in this format for the first time. The set includes 5 Best Picture Oscar winners and films that took home an additional 33 Academy Awards. All the tapes are available to buy individually. The pack, with a handsome mosaic of faces from the movies, also features collector gift cards (a movie version of baseball cards) and a commemorative booklet detailing the productions of all 10 films. The collection is oddly weighted toward the last 25 years, offering only one film from the 1950s and one from the 1960s. Your taste in current cinema will define the value of the set. Besides Tiffany's, one of Audrey Hepburn's finest films, the collection contains: The Ten Commandments with Charlton Heston, Grease with John Travolta, Francis Ford Coppola's Apocalypse Now and The Godfather, the funny, whale-saving Star Trek IV--The Voyage Home, Tom Cruise's hit Top Gun, the smash hit Ghost with Demi Moore, Mel Gibson's Celt fest Braveheart, and Forrest Gump with Tom Hanks. --Doug ThomasStar Trek V :The Final FrontierMovie critic Roger Ebert summed it up very succinctly: "Of all of the Star Trek movies, this is the worst." Subsequent films in the popular series have done nothing to disprove this opinion; we can be grateful that they've all been significantly better since this film was released in 1989. After Leonard Nimoy scored hits with Star Trek III and IV, William Shatner used his contractual clout (and bruised ego) to assume directorial duties on this mission, in which a rebellious Vulcan (Laurence Luckinbill) kidnaps Federation officials in his overzealous quest for the supreme source of creation. That's right, you heard it correctly: Star Trek V is about a crazy Vulcan's search for God. By the time Kirk, Spock, and their Federation cohorts are taken to the Great Barrier of the galaxy, this journey to "the final future" has gone from an embarrassing prologue to an absurd conclusion, with a lot of creaky plotting in between. Of course, die-hard Trekkies will still allow this movie into their video collections; but they'll only watch it when nobody else is looking. After this humbling experience, Shatner wisely relinquished the director's chair to Star Trek II's Nicholas Meyer. --Jeff ShannonStar Trek VI : The Undiscovered CountryStar Trek V left us nowhere to go but up, and with the return of Star Trek II director Nicholas Meyer, Star Trek VI restored the movie series to its classic blend of space opera, intelligent plotting, and engaging interaction of stalwart heroes and menacing villains. Borrowing its subtitle (and several lines of dialogue) from Shakespeare, the movie finds Admiral Kirk (William Shatner) and his fellow Enterprise crew members on a diplomatic mission to negotiate peace with the revered Klingon Chancellor Gorkon (David Warner). When the high-ranking Klingon and several officers are ruthlessly murdered, blame is placed on Kirk, whose subsequent investigation uncovers an assassination plot masterminded by the nefarious Klingon General Chang (Christopher Plummer) in an effort to disrupt a historic peace summit. As this political plot unfolds, Star Trek VI takes on a sharp-edged tone, with Kirk and Spock confronting their opposing views of diplomacy, and testing their bonds of loyalty when a Vulcan officer is revealed to be a traitor. With a dramatic depth befitting what was to be the final movie mission of the original Star Trek crew, this film took the veteran cast out in respectably high style. With the torch being passed to the crew of Star Trek: The Next Generation, only Kirk, Scotty, and Chekov would return, however briefly, in Star Trek: Generations. --Jeff Shannon Seven-disc set includes "Star Trek: The Motion Picture," "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan," "Star Trek III: The Search for Spock," "Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home," "Star Trek V: The Final Frontier," "Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country," and a disc full of extras. |

Men in Black [Blu-ray + BD-Live] List Price: $26.99 Sale Price: $9.66 |
|
Men in Black follows the exploits of agents Kay (Jones) and Jay (Smith) members of a top-secret organization established to monitor alien activity on Earth. The two MiB find themselves in the middleof the deadly plot by an intergalactic terrorist (Vincent D'Onofrio) who has arrived on Earth to assassinate two ambassadors from opposing galaxies. This imaginative summer comedy from director Barry Sonnenfeld (Get Shorty) is a lot of fun, largely on the strength of Will Smith's engaging performance as the rookie partner of a secret agent (Tommy Lee Jones) assigned to keep tabs on Earth-dwelling extraterrestrials. There's lots of comedy to spare in this bright film, some of the funniest stuff found in the margins of the major action. (A scene with Smith's character being trounced in the distance by a huge alien while Jones questions a witness is a riot.) The inventiveness never lets up, and the cast--including Vincent D'Onofrio doing frighteningly convincing work as an alien occupying a decaying human--hold up their end splendidly. --Tom Keogh |

One of the main concerns, especially in homes with limited space, is the amount of room it will take to have stairs installed into your home's lay-out. This is a huge dilemma for most homeowners since they are faced with the problem of putting stairs into the home while saving space in the process. Some would opt to forego the idea of putting stairs altogether. Others will opt to try the alternatives to using the conventional staircase, such as ladders, hidden stairs, or pull-down stairs. But what many do not realize is that there are ways to put stairs into your small space without sacrificing comfort and space.
Before doing anything else, you should first take measurements of the space where you want your stairs to be placed. All the measurements should be accurate up to the last digit, avoid rounding off numbers, everything should be precise to avoid miscalculations which could lead delay later on.
Next would be to have a rough draft of how you want your stairs to look like. The stair design should be carefully planned and discerned. It should be able to blend beautifully with the space's existing furnishings, and complement the homes over-all design. A good tip is to have your stairs be made out of the same material that is dominant in the space. If wood is dominant or the home is abundant with earth tones such as taupe or brown, a good choice would to choose to put wood stairs. These will exactly blend with your interiors while giving out a very natural and earthy feel.
Another way is to scale your stairs according to the space. It would be unwise to put large stair treads in a very compact space. Scale everything to the space, proportions should be noted. There should be enough space for headroom, so that you can comfortably climb up and down the stairs without fear of bumping your head against the ceiling. The space should also be enough for you to scale the stairs quickly in case of emergency. The height of the step should be enough to give you a comfortable step when using the stairs. It should also be safe for small children and the elderly to use.
A good option would be to use a spiral staircase in your home. This is now the rising fad in most compact homes. Aside form the modern vibe it radiates into a space, it also is relatively simple to install and easy to maintain. It also comes in a variety of designs and materials. Aside from the spiral staircase's visual appeal, it also saves a lot of space. This is because it is positioned in a vertical manner, as opposed to the conventional type of stairs, which takes up more space because of its diagonal orientation.
Lastly, an ingenious way to be able to put stairs into a seemingly small space is to forego putting in storage space and instead use the space under stairs as an added storage. Minimizing on storage space will give you more room for you to put your stairs. These are just some of the ways on how to put stairs in a small space. Planning everything carefully and considering the space available will help you put stairs that is just right for a home where space is tight.

Four Ways To Create Space In Your Life
When Donna came on the phone for her coaching call she was clearly overwhelmed. Her day had been the usual run of meeting after meeting with no time to do the tasks she had set herself for the day. In addition, she had just learned that one of her staff had had a grievance taken against her by a staff member in another department. Her husband was unhappy because Donna was increasingly spending more time at work . . . and so it went on. She was very certain that she needed help with time management.
The idea of time management gets so much attention it is no wonder that many of our clients come to us with similar situations as Donna. They believe that if they had better time management strategies, life would suddenly become much easier. People tend to think that time management is the answer. They are therefore very often surprised to learn that as coaches we do not 'do' time management. We can however offer space management!
Well, what is the difference? It is our view that time management offers strategies that are external to the person concerned. Focusing on managing time is like frosting on the cake and can disguise what is really going on and how the person is viewing her/his life. Better time management serves only to maintain the status quo. To make a real difference with the time available to her Donna needed to take a deeper look at her beliefs and expectations. These beliefs may be outdated ones that were no longer serving her and once she opened herself to more possibilities she could let go of rigid expectations.
Let's look again at Donna. What was she truly looking for? Where was she making choices about her life . .. and where was she selling out on herself? Was she in the 'must do' or 'should do' domain?
CREATE SPACE BY MAKING CHOICES
It is very easy for us to get hooked into patterns we think are essential. In the corporate world we often see people filling their schedule with meeting after meeting due to a sense of obligation. As coaches, it is our job to draw out the wisdom and inner knowing of the client. Asking a client to take a close look and honestly admit whether or not 'all' the meetings are absolutely necessary can result in a surprise for the client. In most cases, the client realises that it is not crucial to attend every meeting. We may then challenge the client to delete 50% of the meetings appearing in the next week's schedule. This can seem like a tall order . . . and it is. Yet the world will not fall apart if that client declines and sends her or his apologies to some of the meetings.
We call this getting into the driver's seat of your life. Wisdom, intuition and experience can tell you what choices to make if you care to listen. Most times it is our ego or fear that gets in the way of making choices that create meaningful space in our lives. Many times we do not even realise we have choices.
Was Donna unwittingly colluding with co-workers to prove that she does the most work by being one of the last to leave? Did Donna want to leave work earlier to spend more time with her husband but didn't because she believed she couldn't? Was staying late her choice because it honoured her values or was she scared of the consequences if she didn't? Were the consequences based on old beliefs instead of reality? The light bulb went on when Donna realised that she had got into the habit of filling her diary with meetings and staying late because that was the way things appeared to be done in her organisation. Choosing to change this habit took a lot of courage on her part.
LOOK TO THE SPACE
Overwhelm usually arises when we are thinking about too many things, past or future, and are not focusing on the present. There is no overwhelm in the present moment. It was evident that Donna felt overwhelmed; it showed in the way she spewed everything out and the speed at which she talked. It is good to be able to vent one's feelings and perspective on the situation, and it's even better if it leads to the realisation that there is a lack of balance in one aspect or another of one's life.
It is worth remembering that body, mind and spirit are intrinsically linked. When in alignment, our lives flow. When our minds are cluttered with minutiae and trivia we very often cannot see the proverbial 'wood for the trees'. Our minds are not in alignment with our body and spirit.
Donna was given a great exercise to try out and learn to listen to her body's wisdom. She was to walk in a busy place such as a shopping mall, a crowded tourist area or just her local high street on market day. Her task was to walk intentionally looking for the space and moving forward with flow. She was amazed just how easily space appears without force or deviation. Even more amazing to her was how her mind was able to drop the clutter making the path she needed to follow clear to her.
The key with this exercise is to hold the wisdom that our body has shown us and act upon it. The old pattern will soon want to jump in so it's a prime opportunity to start developing our space management skills.
CREATE INTENTIONAL SPACE
Working with many managers over the years we've noticed that often they regard some aspects of their role as intrusions. What we believe 'should' or 'shouldn't' be a part of our life influences how we deal with it. As an example, if a manager views it as an intrusion when team members ask for information or advice, it indicates that she/he does not consider assisting team members as part of her/his role as manager. In addition, the manager may be overestimating the amount of tasks she/he can complete in one day. The manager's viewpoint is what affects the attitude she/he has toward staff members asking for assistance. This was the case with Donna. Staff interruptions were not part of her perspective on her work.
From a social perspective we've had clients who have complained that their social life is so hectic they have no time to complete the jobs around the home they want to do or they aren't even able to have a night-in to themselves. How much of a habit is it to fill one's social schedule so tightly? The belief that it is not possible to say 'no' to an invitation without breaking up a friendship leads to dissatisfaction and frustration with the way one's life is panning out. Typically this fear is an unwarranted one. Would a so-called friendship be worth maintaining if saying no from time to time would break up the friendship? All of this is totally within the individual's control and is a matter of perspective or mindset.
Mindsets play a crucial part in determining how we see our lives and what options we have. Choosing to see those aspects that appear to be an intrusion or that are escaping us as an integral part of our life helps us then consciously to create the space for them. To achieve this we often have to break old habits of thought and create new ones. The way forward may be to actually schedule the night-in by placing it in the calendar or to leave sufficient space in the 'to do' list for staff conversations. This will only happen if we change our perspective to one that works for how we want to see our life.
The challenge for Donna was to change the way she was seeing the grievance taken against the member of staff. Bemoaning the fact that it had been taken and using energy to justify the injustice of it was not serving her. Her perspective needed to shift so that she could focus clearly on what was needed from her to work with and support her member of staff. And to start to see her conversations with staff as part of her working day, not additional interruptions.
SPACE FOR ME
We often hear clients say "There is no room (space) for what I want-for me. It's not possible, I've tried". Actually we've never had a client who is new to the coaching process who is already making space for self. They come to coaching with a long list and it's no surprise that their own personal needs are at the bottom if they are on the list at all. A serious question we can ask ourselves is, "If there is no 'space' for me, how effective can I be in the other areas of my life? How well do I function when much of my energy is depleted?"
How could Donna fully be available to fulfil her relationship with her husband when she was not allowing herself to fulfil her relationship with herself by giving herself the vital space she needed.
Knowing what matters most and what is most important to you is the place to start. Recognising that creating space for "me" can start with small steps. Look to the space in the calendar, surely there's a half hour or more during the course of a week. Commit to soaking in a hot tub, reading, walking or riding a bicycle in the park, playing with the dog, meditating-whatever would feel like a luxury at first - and truly savouring that time. Your pattern may be to worry about what you could/should be doing instead. That habit of filling your mind space has to stop. You'll see it's possible and rather than being a luxury, it is rightfully yours. You will learn that there is more space than you thought and you'll find more opportunities to make 'space for me'. Again, you will be placing yourself in the driver's seat of your life and you will be amazed how addressing your need for space will help you get clear and focused about other things too.
Space management comes down to how you view your options to create space in your life-seeing that you do have choices and making the choices in alignment with your body, mind and spirit. If you do, you'll find you have much more time for what you want in your life. For Donna, a couple of months since that phone call she is now making space in her life following these three principles. She is attending only those meetings where she knows she has a real contribution to make by her presence; the grievance against her member of staff has been positively concluded and she includes time for staff conversations in her weekly schedule. She leaves work at the normal time on at least two evenings a week; has cleared her weekends of work declaring them as time for herself and her husband. All in all, with space management life is so much better.

How should I decorate this big space where a fireplace used to be?
I just moved into this new apartment. It used to have a fireplace, but it's been closed off. Here is a pic..
http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a78/Odinoneeye/CROP-100_0304.jpg
It's 39" long and 36" high. I can't find any posters that size, or anything to hang there. I have the option of painting it, either with a design or a solid color. Any decorating tips would be MOST welcome. I can't stand looking at this empty space!
BTW, I can't open it up, I rent this place. Plus, it might be bricked up behind the wall, I don't know.
Put a mirror there, and then put some candles of various sizes, shapes and heights in front of it. That way, when you light the candles, the mirror will reflect it. It will give out very ambient lighting, suitable for quite dinner parties, a romantic evening with your honey, or just a quiet night by yourself reading a book! Mirrors also tend to make a room appear larger. I'm not sure if that's an issue in your case. Lots of luck!
Where to go with all the snow: Towns turn to empty lots, dead ends, rivers
JOHNSTOWN — The winter’s record snowfall is creating headaches for area municipalities, especially in places where space is limited and areas need to be cleared for parking.
