(Little pieces of hope all over my 'fridge) 『I bought this as a joke for my husband, who has a major man-crush on the new prez....but I think I have way more fun dressing up Obama than the minor laugh he had opening the box.
My favorite combination so far is the "hope" bling with the super hero lucha mask and the surf shorts. He's leading the country in style, and trying to encourage the produce to march to freedom in his spare time.
My only issue is that while the magnets are strong enough to stick the prez and all of his accoutrements to the fridge, they don't layer well (typical property of magnets placed on top of one another). We've had several bits fall off and end up under the stove (aka The Land that Time Forgot). Bummer.』 『Finally, a change of clothes you can believe in!

Poor Robert White should be singing lower rep at this point, his voice is really not suited to the range of some of these songs... and we all know they weren't even written for tenors... oh well - the pianist is good, Mr. White's performance isn't terrible, it's just not nice.』 『This is a delightful record. Francis Poulenc was a composer who commanded many different styles, and these 31 songs are so well chosen for variety of length, weight, mood, and character that no two of them are alike, although some are connected through their poets or subject matter. InFour Children's Songs, poems that begin innocently become scary; they are set to music of utmost simplicity. There are outpourings of ardent passion, tenderness, joy, sorrow, longing, and nostalgia, as well as sarcastic parodies, jazzy cabaret songs, and one setting of Shakespeare in English. The performances are wonderful. White's bright, light tenor is just right for this music; he brings out every nuance and inflection with complete idiomatic identification, and his diction is perfect. Sanders, his long-time partner, provides both support and leadership, setting moods in his preludes and sustaining them in his postludes--the mark of a great accompanist.--Edith Eisler』 『Sigmund Romberg: When I Grow Too Old To Dream by The Eastman-Dryden Orchestra

Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Excellent album !) 『Simply, excellent album. The music of Ketelbey is inspiring, calm and takes us to special and misterious places. Don't miss this CD.』
(An excellent piece of work. Go buy it NOW!!!!!) 『I was introduced to Ketelbey's work by the late Guillermo Figueroa of the famous Figueroa Family group from Puerto Rico. In the few couple of years I worked assisting him, then the conductor for a Youth Chamber Music Orchestra, Don Guillermo helped me rediscover good classical and contemporary music, and introduced me to some great works like the one in review. The recordings are old school but the music is haunting, timeless and beautiful. I highly recommend this cd, and like Don Guillermo told me about 10 years ago: "Give it a chance, you don't have to be a great musician to appreciate great music" How right was He!』
(I listened to Ketelbey's music as a child) 『These songs are emblazoned on my soul ever since my mother (now 82) played them for my sister and I. Each every cut (on her 33rpm album now unplayable for years of listening) left mystical moments and cherished memories for us all. Would love to be able to purchase 2 more copies if the label re-released"In a Persian Market, etc./Faris, London Proms". Anyone looking for a treasury of magical soul-lifting music should be sure to purchase this classic.』

("Where There Is Light" ~ Great Adversary, Or Ultimate Scapegoat?) 『I found the '07 release, `Biography - Satan: Prince of Darkness' to be an extremely shallow examination of the history of the Devil. It is narrow in scope, incomplete, lacking in content. The documentary limits itself only to the Christian perspective which is fine if that was the target audience it was aiming for. I found it surprising that even within the narrow scope of the Judeo-Christian faiths the program is unable to provide anything profound or meaningful in its allotted 141 minutes.
The program is at best a bare bones, cursory approach to the subject matter, offering no pertinent information or insight on the nature of metaphysical evil. In fact the narrative is so poorly scripted it borders on being downright laughable. There is so much left out and what is there is poorly presented.
Blatant Omissions: - There is no mention of the offspring of the "Sons of God" (angels) known as the Nephilim. - The Templars are nowhere to be found. - Mephistopheles, the most important demonic figure of the 20th century is never mentioned (they do show an illustration of him).
These are but a few of the problems with this presentation, there are many more. I recommend that you pass on this one.』
(Satan: DVD Of Mis-Information) 『I must confess in regards to the so-called documentary...if mis-information is what you are looking for?! Look no further. From the get go when Lucifer is said to be another name for Satan you can sure bet that single minded Christian antics are at work here. There is so much to gripe about here that I will say this: HOGWASH. Avoid this at all costs and look for more interesting documentaries such as: Satanis, Omen Legacy, Angeli Bianchi-Angeli Neri, Scream Greats Volume 2:Satanism and Satanic Witchcraft, and a really good documentary on the Mondo Macabro release "Satanico Pandomonium". 』
(Portrait of the Prince of Darkness) 『This documentary proved quite informative, as well as value for money. Despite scant attention being given to pre-Christian concepts of evil and the underworld, the real pleasure was the bonus feature, 'Hell: The Devil's Domain', which runs substantially longer than the first feature and delves into the many fascinating artistic interpretations of Satan and his kingdom of Hell. Excerpts from interviews with various academics, authors and Jesuit Theologians are woven into the narrative, which lends the material much articulation. Unfortunately for Christians, it won't scare people back into church. But it does shed some light on the origins and evolution of one of the most fascinating literary figures of all time. For those interested in delving further, read Jeffrey Burton Russell's seminal works on the subject, especially 'Lucifer: The Devil in the Middle Ages' and 'Mephistopheles: The Devil in the Modern World'.

Aside from the underlying causes of John's premature death, what scars this fine film and tribute to an extraordinary musician is what was not said and by whom. The lifestyle of rockstars -- drugs and drink, etc. --leads to bad and foolish behavior; that much is certain. But bad character is another matter and bad character is what is shown here, not by John or Pete, but by the glaring, conspicuous absence of Roger Daltry. Whatever personal differences Roger may have had with John pale when compared to the loss of a gifted, humble man who was his fellow band member for decades and one of the greatest bass players in the history of rock. While the brilliant but hyperneurotic Pete was open and frank, Daltry's total silence went beyond disrespect to sink into the nadir of insensitivity and crassness. I came away from this documentary with nothing but respect for John and nothing but contempt for Roger Daltry.』
(A nice visit with an old friend.) 『First, I'll cut to the chase - I'd buy this again. The show was well worth watching. Nothing really new, but it is nice to have a DVD that is about John, not about The Who with bits about John. It contains nice interviews with his son and others. A few good shorts of John with his band, and although he looks ill in his interviews, that is one of the high 'bits' as it were - he never shows regrets, but he sure seems to have enjoyed the ride.』
(Poorly done) 『I would have thought this would be a great production. Should'a started with booming bass and great licks...but terrible grainy footage, not even artsy...just crumby. My eyes still hurt. Couldn't get past the first 20 minutes. Yeah, I'll go back and watch the whole thing, but I'm not jumping at it.』
(A must for any Who fan) 『I was lucky enough to see The Who twice while growing up. They certainly were a force to be reckoned with. This DVD provides us with a side of John that wasn't accessible to the media at large -- you see him from the point of view of the people who knew him, worked with him, and loved him. The interview footage with Pete is priceless. Notable (for reasons beyond me), is the complete absence of Roger in this biography. If you love The Who, buy it and enjoy it -- you won't regret it.』
(An Excellent Incite into the Dynamics of The Who) 『Not only do you get to know the greatest basist of all time but you also learn of his interpersonal relationships with the origional members of The Who and the chemistry that bonded them.』 『In 1964 The Who became one of the key figures of the British Invasion taking the American music scene by storm. While Roger Daltrey Pete Townsend and Keith Moon took the spotlight with their on stage antics John Entwistle dubbed "The Quiet One" stood in the shadows... poised to become the biggest bass player in rock and roll. With his arena-rock days behind him Entwistle continued down his own path finding great musical freedom with the John Entwistle Band. In 2002 after years of touring his solo project Entwistle couldn't resist the lure of bringing back one of the greatest bands in rock and roll history. Tragically plans for The Who's North American Reunion Tour were cut short when on the eve of the first show John was found dead in his Las Vegas hotel room. "The Ox" as Entwistle was affectionately known left behind many fans and several unfinished projects. With his passing the world lost a musical legend dubbed Guitar Magazine's "Bassist of the Millennium." Narrated by Peter Frampton John Entwistle: An Ox's Tale covers the life of John Entwistle from his first public performance at the age of 14 to his feelings about The Who's most recent reunion. This film contains the last footage and interviews ever shot with Entwistle offering the one chance for fans to discover the real life behind the man who far exceeded his greatest aspirations.System Requirements:Running Time 77 Mins.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: MUSIC DVD/CONCERTS Rating: NR UPC: 014381185027 Manufacturer No: ID1850ICDVD』

Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Question) 『It this item on the recall list? I couldn't find out elsewhere?
Thank You.』
(This thing is enormous!) 『I bought this toothbrush for my 3.5 year old. It is much larger than I thought it would be. It is 8" long, and almost 2" wide at its widest part, making it as big or larger than a Braun Oral B adult toothbrush.
The brush head is larger than an adult Braun Oral B brush head.
In addition, the on switch is very hard for a child to click all the way so that it stays running.
I think this brush is better suited for a 5+ year old. My child loves the brush, and it does a good job once its locked in the on position.』
(Succumb to the Cultus of Dora! She wants your teeth!) 『And now a word from David Lynch, as spoken by Dean Stockwell as Doctor Yueh in DUNE: "The tooth. The tooooootttttttth. Remember the tooth."
Seriously, my daughter loves Dora the Explorer and my goals are to get her to brush her teeth for longer than two minutes.
I bought this Dora the Explorer battery powered electric toothbrush, and she does.
Game. Set. Match.
Best money I ever spent on simultaneous child and parent satisfaction.
When I tested this model on my finger, I was surprised at how powerful it was for a child-sized unit. This electric toothbrush decidedly will not rip her little gums off her skull, but the teeth definitely get a good scrubbing.
Battery life is okay, I estimate it costs about½ a cent for her to brush her teeth each time. The future value of that expenditure is far lower than the dental bills I'd otherwise have, so this is a money saving unit.

(Not good for full figured women) 『Flexees Women's Firm Control Strapless Slip with Convertible Straps #3741
I really had high hopes for this, I love Flexees but this one is a huge disappointment. I wore it under a summer dress and the bottom kept scooting up and the top sits lower than what I would have liked. The worst part was that any give in the fabric works it's way right to your stomach so there was very little control there. It made my stomach look bigger than what I am - I was so uncomfortable. I think they have a few issues going on with this product. 1) Sizing is off. 2) Does not control like stated (in my case - made it worse). I'm fine with the rest of their products, I absolutely love Maidenform and the Flexee line but this was a disaster! The problem size for me was 36C, in case anyone was wondering.
』
(Good buy) 『I bought this to wear under seethrough skirts and shirts, and it works terrific for that purpose! It does slip up like 3in when I sit or climb stairs but the body curves keep it in good place, so it's not like it slips and everyone can see everything! But I do go to the bathroom to pull it back down every couple of hours just in case. I wear it with the straps so I don't know if it slips down from the bust. If you're looking for a corset-type effect this is not the thing for you. While it's very tight and form-fitting and keeps everything in place, it doesn't really shrink the stomach. The fabric is really good, but if you want a tummy tucker you probably need something with wires. Side note, it has 3 hooks in the back for closing, and it is quite a struggle to hook it yourself, so get help, or skill.』
(poor result,high cost) 『Because of taxes, i paid well over the odds for a pretty poor item. It doesnt support very well, and bearly has any 'pull-in' technology...which is why i wanted it! $51, for the item, $27 postage, and on its return an unexpected bill£27 customs and excise bill!!!

Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Buyer Beware!) 『Be careful when you order from HerRoom! I ordered what I thought was the simple waist cincher, exactly as pictured in the product image (smooth, satin-y front) and as described in the Product Description. However, when I got it, it had a lace front and garters. NOT what is described and exactly what I DIDN'T want. Unfortunately, I bought it for an event a few days later so I had no choice but to keep it. I wrote HerRoom right away to let them know that they sent the wrong product, but I got no response, so hey -- guess they don't care what they are sending out. A simple apology or acknowledgement of their mistake would have gone a long way but now I know never to order from them again.
On to an actual review of the product (even though the one I got is not really the right product here): the lace cincher was fine, but I was looking for a little more 'cinching'. A previous reviewer said the one with lace and garters does not provide as much support, and is not as invisible as the one actually listed here. However, I guess the lace one with garters does what it's supposed to do -- just not what I wanted it to do. I still wore it and was lucky that the dress I wore it with hid it well, but I wanted to be able to wear it with other things and unfortunately, its use is limited. However, it's pretty, held me in relatively well and was pretty comfortable.
I plan on buying the Rago waist cincher that I originally wanted -- just NOT from HerRoom!!』
(Waist Cincher) 『This waist cincher did nothing for me. Very hard to put on. Maybe if you are a size 14 or below it might do something but not for the plus size woman.』
(Does the job, but can get uncomfortable after awhile) 『I purchased this item to help cinch things up under a bridesmaid's dress. While it did do the job, by the time we got to the reception I was pretty uncomfortable. The boning in the cincher pokes you in the ribs if you wear it for much longer than an hour or 2.』
(The best cincher I've had) 『I bought this cincher to flatten and smooth my waistline beneath a bridesmaids dress. I have had two children and I have a permanent pooch in the front, I am also carrying extra weight from my last pregnancy still. While I didn't expect this to take away any inches, it does what I hoped for! My tummy is flat and my waist is nipped in the right spots. It is a comfortable garment, I expected the worst, scratchy, binding, bulging, but it is none of those things! When I pulled it around my waist, I thought it was going to be too small, it was difficult to pull the sides of it together over my baby belly, but I had ordered according to the size chart on Rago's website, so I persevered. Once it was all hooked, I could see it was the perfect size, any larger and it wouldn't have been as effective, any tighter and I would have that bulging thing going on. I recommend this for anyone looking to smooth and add shape to their waistline, for that special event or just for an everyday confidence boost!』
(Review by William's Wife Jen) 『I have several corsets and waist cinchers and I have to say that this one is my favourite. I have worn it almost daily since I bought it, and I couldn't be more pleased. Allow me to explain why this is the cincher to buy. 1)The difference between corsets and cinchers: I own both, and they both do different things even though most people think that they're the same. A corset makes the body look beautiful outside of clothes (they push the breasts up very high and pull in the waist), but in general (unless you're wearing Marie Antoinette style clothing) they don't look good under an outfit. The breasts become a single lump and the ties are usually quite visiable underneath (which defeats the entire purpose of trying to get people to think that this is your natural figure). A cincher is made to be worn under clothes, to pull in the waist, and to be as invisiable as possible. Therefore they often aren't as pretty as corsets but make much better undergarments. 2) Rago rocks! I own many shaper garments, and Rago's are by far the best. Yes, you can find cheaper brands in the department stores, but they won't hold up as well and they won't have the power that Rago's have. 3)Of the versions Rago offers on this site, this one is the best. I own the other model which is very similar except that it is lace and has garters, but it doesn't offer as much support as this one and aren't as invisiable as this one. The satin feels wonderful next to the skin and even under clingy dresses this is just about undetectable. Unless you have your heart set on garters, this is the cincher to buy. 4) The fit: like many women I suffer from "Mummy Tummy", the horrible price one must pay for having grown two human beings in her body. I am in very good shape, but nothing gets those muscles back to their prepregnancy shape besides surgery (I don't have a spare $20,000 lying around and the scar is huge and ugly). This garment instantly takes 2-4 inches off of the waist and allows one to wear fashionable clothes again without looking frumpy or silly. Another bonus is that I stood about two inches taller because it forces you to walk and sit with perfect posture. This gave me back my youthful waistline. One reviewer said that the fit is a bit tight and they run small; the fit is much tighter than what lace materials and cheaper brands offer but that's because it's a high quality product that works! Those satin panels really pull you in, but they're not uncomfortable (I felt like a sausage for the first hour I wore it, but the body heat warms it up and makes it softer without losing any control). I plan on losing about 10-20 lbs. over the next few months so I will probably buy a new one soon, but I'd recommend buying your size according to the chart. Most of the time I can fit into a small because they don't provide as much compression, but this one you need to be exact. Anyway, if you are looking for an awesome waist cincher that is affordable, flattens your stomach and gives you a lovely "wasp's waist", and feels wonderful and comfortable next to the skin, this is the one to buy.』 『Rago's Waist cincher provides firm control by shaping and supporting with constructed boning designed to flatter fuller figures. It is styled with hook and eye front closure for an easy fit.』

We ordered 6 sets for our daughters play kitchen and have really enjoyed them. We went through many plastic sets with our older daughter. I wish I had ordered these ones back then. Too cute:)』
(Fun, educational toy for both boys and girls) 『My 15 month old daughter and 2-1/2 year old son love this product. I purchased it, in addition to another M&D "wooden food" product, as well as the Kid Kraft vintage kitchen. The kids love to organize (and re-organize) the products, stack them, and cook with them.
I purchased all these toys for my kids, looking for the following characteristics: toys that would last them many years of use (as I said, my kids are 1 and 2 years old); the toys have minimal wear and tear, and are educational, durable, and easy to clean; and they are eco-friendly (wooden toys that I keep for years and do throw away after limited months/years of use). For all the above reasons, they are a great value.
Also, keep the box (with plastic insert) that the product came in: for an additional activity, my son absolutely loves to put the products back in the box. You have to figure out where and how each piece fits back into the plastic insert.』
(best out there) 『made out of wood so it will not break but kids put them in mouth and paint can come of. Paint does comes off. This set is better than the cardboard sets those break easily. My kids are having fun with them since it goes in their Kid Kraft Deluex Kitchen.』
(Cute, but probably wouldn't buy it again.) 『These are very cute as far as pretend kitchen food goes, but I was disappointed to see that only 1 side of each block of wood was painted/labeled. And the other concern I have is that they were painted in China....not sure that's such a good thing!』
(Great quality item) 『These 'fridge food' items are cute and accurately depict things in Mommy's fridge. Quality wood, nicely finished and painted. My granddaughter loves playing shopping and cooking with them.』 『Melissa&Doug Wooden Fridge FoodNo kitchen or refrigerator is complete without the Fridge Food Play Set!

Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (LOVE it!) 『This was given to us as a gift for my daughter's first birthday. She found the buttons before she even opened the package and she LOVES it. Even when she's not playing with the toy, she loves to take the animals all around the house with her. She's figured out how to roll them around and chase them and we talk about what each kind of animal is and what color they are. She loves the music more than the animal sounds but more than anything she loves to push buttons! It was amazing to watch her figure out that the penguin went on the "ice" and the rest of the animals went on the other part of the toy... and it was fun to watch her make sure they were all standing up and not tipped over. That's about as educational as the toy gets but I think it's meant for more fun than education. (Does everything have to educate???) I have not had any issues with her falling onto the toy as another reviewer suggested. If she's wandering around, I usually pick up most of the toys that would be in her way, especially the big ones, because of the trip and fall hazard. She's been pretty abusive with it, I even caught her standing on it once, and it has held up wonderfully. With her constant use in three months, we have just recently changed the batteries once and I always forget to turn it off at night. Again, love, love, LOVE this toy!』
(Adults like it more than my 10 month old.) 『I bought this toy for my 10 months old boy after reading good reviews about it. I thought this toy would finally make my son get interested in his toys. UNfortunately, my son only looked interested for the first 2 mins. The songs are good and the toy is quite durable. Just didn't quite attract my son's interest. However, it attracts my guests when they come over. =D』
(My daughter loves it!) 『I wasn't too sure about this toy at first because it seemed a little too expensive for not doing a whole lot. I went ahead and got it and my daughter loves it. She just presses the button over and over again to hear the music. SHe even tries to stand on it so that she can go round and round too.』
(Another great Amazing Animals toy) 『I got this for my granddaughter when she was about 10 months and she liked the little animals and loved the music. Now, 4 months later, this is the toy she runs to first. She finds many ways to play the music and we seem to have fallen into a habit of rolling the little animals to each other. She is learning the sounds they make and the vibrant colors hold her attention. The penguin is a favorite as is the little red bird at the top. She's beginning to talk "sing" along with the songs and loves how so many things can move at the same time.
This seems to be quite durable - she never used it for standing up, but she tosses the animals now and then and really pushes on the spinning table, and so far, so good. The music sounds like a person, not a tinny voice, a real plus when she plays with it for an hour or more.
』
(3 mo. old finds it entertaining) 『My daughter is only 3 mo. old, but likes it and it will keep her entertained while she is in her bumbo. At her age, it would be nice if the animals would spin around longer. She has just started to pick up the animals by their ear/tail. She thinks that is funny. I think she will use it more when she is able to sit up on her own, but it was a good investment early to give her something to watch and start to reach for.』 『This zoo is a complete activity center full of fascinating ways to delight baby. Baby's touch activates fun music, sounds, dancing lights and five sing-along songs. There are lots of busy activities to explore, too, like a clicking, sliding crocodile, spinning birdie, peek-a-boo tiger, wiggly-jiggly parrot, twirling ice pond and so much more. Animals have clicking heads and built-in wheels, so they're fun to play with in the zoo or on their own. Requires three button-cell batteries, included, and three "C" batteries, not included. Some assembly required. Measures 13"L x 23"W x 10.25"H.』

(Gift for Grandson) 『This was a surprise for my grandson. He has watched a video about this launcher and described how much better it was than the one in local stores. He felt it was a great launcher. Now he has one and he said it was as he expected, and he loves it. I ordered it from Amazon and it came in a most timely manner. He really likes the way you can adjust different launching forces and how easy it is to adjust. Also the option to launch from wrist or another surface. The fact that it will carry his favorite 3 bakugans and their cards is what really excited him also. Bakugan Launcher it is everything he expected. I feel his imagination is worth encouraging. He loves playing with his bakugans and this launcher will encourage his imagination, which is good that he knows imagination and reality.』
(Disappointing) 『My 5 year old daughter was very excited to get this, but I was disappointed. The bakugans don't launch really, it's more like they just fall out. I guess it's safer that way (it's all fun until someone loses an eye), but it's not what I was expecting. I gave this 2 stars only because my daughter sometime uses it for other purposes -- pretending it's other things rather than a bakugan launcher.』
(Bakugan Launcher) 『First of all, this launcher is a cheap piece of plastic. I bought it, and it costed 10 bucks. It is a rip-off. The spring is only like...less than an inch long. It dose'nt go very far, and for half of the time, the Bakugan dosent even stand! It is far better to flick or roll it with your finger. The door hinges which you store the Bakugan break easily, and the wrist strap is basically useless, as I would perfer to launch it from the floor. After buying this product, I constructed my own launcher from a cardboard paper towel roll, a rolled up piece of paper, and a single rubber band. Miraculously, it even works better.
』
(BAKUGON LAUNCHER) 『THIS TOY IS A RIP OFF SO DONT BUY IT OR YOU WILL LOSE YOUR MONEY. I AM 8 YEARS OLD AND IT DID TAKE MY MONEY. IF IT LOOKS COOL STILL DONT BUY IT BECAUSE IT JUST WANTS YOUR MONEY.

Based on the popular and fun anime TV series of the same name, this strategic game that pits a variety of "Bakugan warriors" against each other for points. Kids ages four and above will love using the launcher to help them score points by shooting their Bakugan warriors onto magnetic cards, where the plastic spheres burst open to reveal the fearsome warrior apparatus inside.

At a Glance
Ages:6 to 12
NOTE: The Bakugan Launcher includes a single launcher with a wrist strap. Bakugan warriors are sold separately.
Ready, Aim, Fire! There are no instructions with the optional Bakugan Launcher, which is made of sturdy, lightweight plastic. But it's a straightforward accessory: simply load the Bakugan and fire away! There are two additional Bakugan compartments on either side of the launcher. The wrist strap is a great accessory that your child can use to help steady the launcher as he fires.
Exciting Magnetic Action The Bakugan Launcher has three shooting modes ("curve," "angle, and "distance"). It holds three Bakugan, and straps to your child's wrist -- just like Dan's! Though kids can roll the Bakugan just like marbles, the Launcher adds an element of excitement to their Bakugan battles.
Room for the Imagination Though we thought the launcher was a great accessory, but our attempts to fire it proved somewhat difficult. Instructions would have helped. If you and your child can figure it out how to fire it effectively -- especially how to use the three shooting modes -- the launcher is sure to increase their enjoyment of the game and add variety to their play.

Metropolitan Museum of Art
Usually ships in 24 hours Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (A Great Survey of American Genre Painting) 『This beautifully illustrated book was published in conjunction of a major exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. I bought the catalogue after seeing the exhibit and I fell in love with the paintings. The over 170 reproductions in the book depicit everyday subjects such as family life, children playing, people at work, and city life. Some of the most well known works illustrated include John Singleton Copley's "Watson and the Shark", George Caleb Bingham's "Fur Traders Descending the Missouri, Thomas Eakins' "Max Schmidt in a Single Skull", Winslow Homer's "Snap the Whip", and George Bellows' "Club Night". The text gives great explanations of all the paintings as well as important historical information. The book is divided into four time periods like the exhibit. The first section describe works that were made from 1765 to the 1830s which are mainly genre portrait paintings by artists such as William Pratt and Charles Willson Peale. The second section have works which were painted from 1830 to the eve of the Civil War. Highlights in this section include rural life paintings by William Sidney Mount, frontier life paintings by Bingham, domestic life works by Lilly Martin Spencer, and a major painting by Eastman Johnson depicting slaves entitled, "Negro Life in the South." The third section has masterpieces of the Civil War period including several by Homer. The last one deals with paintings made from the 1870s until the eve of World War I. This section shows American Impressionist works by Mary Cassatt, John Singer Sargent, and William Merritt Chase and ends with ashcan school paintings by artists such as John Sloan and Bellows. The book also has illustrations by European artists like Edgar Degas and Edouard Manet to show how European and American painters depicit genre subjects differently. If you want a book filled with great American painting by famous as well as several not so well known artists, buy it. You'll treasure them forever!』 『
This beautiful volume explores American paintings of people engaged in the tasks and pleasures of everyday life between the colonial era and World War I. These works reflect key historical and cultural developments, including the growth of industrialization, urbanization, and immigration; changing gender roles; and the shifting location and meaning of the frontier.
Focusing on leading artists, from John Singleton Copley to John Sloan, the authors address narrative content in colonial and early national portraits; genre scenes of the Jacksonian period; images from the Civil War era; and works by American Impressionists and realists in the decades before and after 1900. Like the exhibition it accompanies, the book reflects transformations in artistsâ aspirations and viewersâ expectations as America evolved from isolated British outpost to leading independent participant in international affairs.

(Best Figure Drawing Book There Is...) 『There are so many mixed reviews for figure drawing books. I can say without a doubt in my mind that Vanderpoel's "The Human Figure" is far superior to any book I've come across so far. Vanderpoel had an incredible grasp on the human figure. His drawings are perfect in their simplicity. I am always amazed when I look through this book; many of the sketches look like they were done in seconds but they capture the exact subtleties and fluctuations in both the female and male bodies and heads.
Other figure drawing books I've purchased or browsed pale in comparison. Sure, Vanderpoel's text is wordy, intellectual, and sometimes uninteresting, but you have to look at the time period and purpose of the text. Vanderpoel was interested in the anatomical dissection of each part of the body. His goal with this book was to show the reader what is "going on" beneath the surface so you can understand why there is a bulge in muscle here or cartilage there, etc. The book is broken into chapters that cover each part of the body, starting with the head, and more specifically--the eye, then nose, mouth, ear, etc. The text is accompanied by drawings of what Vanderpoel is describing. For instance, the first chapter--Eyes--begins with explanations of how the eye sits in the eye socket, and how the eye socket relates to the skull as a whole. Drawings include skulls in different positions so you can see the brow bone and eye socket from different angles, and how the eyeball might sit in the head at different angles. The text goes on to explain how far inside the socket the eyeball sits, how the eyelid covers the eye when the eye is looking up or down, how big the iris and pupil are in comparison to the whole eyeball, etc. Studying this text can help artists to understand how to dry eyes in portraits conceptually with practice and time.
This is how figure drawing was intended to be: a study of the anatomical goings-on below the skin. Figure and portrative artists should have at least a pretty good grasp on this to make sure their drawing relates to itself as a whole. Too many artists these days just copy pictures of things, or even trace! It's shameful, in my (very opinionated) opinion.
Vanderpoel was a master and I feel honored to have this publication as part of my collection. I was first given this book by an art teacher when I was 14 or 15 years old and many years later it is still the first (and one of the only) books I find myself going back to when I want to brush up on my figure drawing skills.』
(Somewhat dated) 『There's some good information here, but it reads like an old university lecture. It might actually be easier to absorb as an audiobook accompanied by the appropriate illustrations. Still a good reference for charcoal figure drawing.』
(Not what I was expecting) 『This book was recommeded by William Maughan in his book The Artist's Complete Guide to Drawing the Head. I thought Maughan's book was great and was hoping this would be more of the same. Unfortunately not. Essentially all this book is is a written discripion of various parts of the body, written in very arcane language, with a few pencil sketches of body parts. The descriptions of the body parts do not even refer to the sketches. Definately not for beginners and experienced artists should not waste their time trying to parse the erudite language of this book.』

Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Bath Bombs for boys) 『My son is a Ben 10 addict. Loves and wants everything and anything Ben 10. In each pack of Alien rocks aka bath bombs with toys, you get 2 (Ben and Vilgax). If you are a person who has ever purchased bath bombs for yourself, you know that this is not a bad price for 2 of them.
Basically, you unwrap and disolve the ball in warm water. In the middle there is a tiny 1 inch figure of a Ben 10 character. They smell up the whole house nicely while disolving. Even weeks after the little character still smells good. We used the 2nd one in the bath. The packaging does not say if it is able to be used in the bath, but everything turned out fine.
Now while the fizzing action is fun for about 5 minutes, and the colored scented water is nice for the entire bath, you are only left with a 1 inch toy. I couldn't tell who was who, but my son was able to. You have to be very carefull not to loose them, because they are so tiny. I would not buy these for anyone under 5 or for any child that still puts things in thier mouth as these are a big choking hazzard. The item picture that I see on my screen at a 1280x800 resolution is about 4x the actual size.
My son plays with the little figures alot, and does alot of role play with them and he also launches them from the alien rock launcher of the Ben 10 Vilgax Battle Ship- Vilgax Battle Planet.』
