5 AmazingBigVernUK | 25/09/2009 | See all BigVernUK's reviews (9)Hi all, i've had this game for ages now and i've actually just gone back to it to get me in the mood for uncharted 2. Was really just writing this as a heads up to people who are buying it post PS3 firmware 3.0. The game crashes randomly and you'll probably start trauling the net for answers but simply go to the settings tab on your XMB and choose to manually look for an update, you will find firmware 3.01 and this is a Naughty Dog/PS3 fix for this problem. I know some people may have already found this but to newcomers update your system before the game arrives.
5 Must buy!!!Hardizzle | 07/08/2008 | See all Hardizzle's reviews (9)Ok so the phrase must buy or must own is often over-used, especially in the gaming market, but this game truly falls into that category. This is the game Tomb Raider has been trying to be since The Last Revelation (the last decent Tomb Raider game) and ironically could put the final nail in Lara's sarcophagus.Beautiful environments, a simple yet gripping plot and top-notch voice-acting. Fast paced action is married with an agile and responsive set of controls so that the player is never left frustrated by the games physics. As well as this there are numerous bonus unlockables and hidden treasures, these combined with varying difficulty levels give a huge dose of replayability.Believe me when I say you must own this game!
5 Keep you playing for days.bldvdinc | 06/08/2008 | See all bldvdinc's reviews (14)Graphics - 9/10Gameplay - 9/10Storyline - 9/10Extra's - 10/10Tomb Raider meets Gears of War! Great storyline and enjoyable game for all! You can complete the game within a day if you play constantly none stop, BUT the game offers alot of unlockables and has just recieved an update for PS3 TROPHIES, for all you hardcore gamers that want to show off your talents! For this price, its a most certain MUST BUY!
5 One of the best!londongta | 06/08/2008 | See all londongta's reviews (11)I bought this at £40 and it was worth every penny then!buy it!!!!!!!
5 360 fan owns upMaxmotor1 | 16/12/2010 | See all Maxmotor1's reviews (1)Ok ok I am an Xbox 360 fanboy but that doesnt matter in this case. I own a PS3 also and can proudly say that this is one of the titles that kicks some serious ass and is better than a lot of exclusives for both PS3 and 360. Graphics are smooth and despite their age hold up well, The gameplay is fast paced, fair and rewarding with few flaws and bugs. The story is deep and involving and will have you on the edge of your seat until the last word in the great script. Despite the few tiny gripes i have with this game such as the fact that its a shame that it isnt longer this is a AAA title and diserves the apreciation and credit it gets. Motorstorm, Uncharted, Resistance, Killzone 2, MGS 4 and Little Big Planet are some of the reasons to buy a PS3 but if you need just 1... Uncharted is your one

The scientific method is unquestionable in its pursuit of truth. The problem is, the scientific community doesn't follow the scientific method. If a result points to something they don't like, it gets rejected.

Internship/Field Experience:
A student may wish to arrange an off-campus experience with a business, industry, service agency, high school, governmental office, or another appropriate organization. The course credit for an internship depends on the length and the actual learning situation. Students work with their academic advisor to determine the credit. Many of the supervising organizations pay a salary although this is not necessary. We believe that this is a valuable learning experience for an individual during the junior or senior year.
In recent years students have had internships at the National Energy Technology (Dept. of Energy); Lucas Systems Inc.; Applied Physics Laboratory (division of Johns Hopkins University); Bright Futures Academic Corp.; Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC); and Caputo Insurance Agency. Students have also participated in Research Experience for Undergraduates programs (REU) at the University of Michigan, Texas A&M University, and Kansas State University. In addition, Dr. Shaffer works with student lab assistants for the UNIX Lab and for the CS 151 Lab.

text: A portion of the Paul Findley collection will be on display in Schewe Library on the campus of Illinois College from now until Monday, November 12. The exhibit is called "The Campaigns of a Lifetime: Paul Findley, 1936-1982."After losing his first election in 1952, Findley, a 1943 Illinois College graduate, said that running for office "carries with it a feeling of personal satisfaction that is difficult to describe." From sophomore class president to the U.S. House of Representatives, he ran for office 15 times with 13 victories to show for it. The Findley exhibit explores some of his campaigns.In addition to memorabilia from many of Findley's Congressional campaigns, the exhibit highlights the 75th anniversary of Findley's term as sophomore class president at Jacksonville High School, the 60th anniversary of his failed primary race for the Illinois State Senate and his first successful campaign for the House of Representatives in 1960. The campaigns are illustrated with original historical materials – artifacts, documents, photographs – many of which have never before been on display. Most of the objects in this exhibition are drawn from the Paul Findley Archives at Illinois College. Here are just a few of the many items that will be on display:

The CA-125 blood test measures the level of the protein CA-125 in the blood.
A blood sample is needed.
No preparation is necessary.
When the needle is inserted to draw blood, some people feel moderate pain. Others feel only a prick or stinging. Afterward, there may be some throbbing or a slight bruise. These soon go away.
CA-125 is a protein that is found more in ovarian cancer cells than in other cells.
This blood test is often used to monitor women who have been diagnosed with ovarian cancer. The test is useful if CA-125 level was high when the cancer was first diagnosed. In these cases, measuring the CA-125 over time is a good tool to determine if ovarian cancer treatment is working.
After surgery and chemotherapy, patients should have the test every 2 to 4 months for the first 2 years. This is followed by every 6 months for 3 years, and then yearly.
The CA-125 test may also be done if a woman has symptoms or findings on ultrasound that suggest ovarian cancer.
In general, this test is not used to screen healthy women for ovarian cancer when a diagnosis has not yet been made.
A level above 35 U/mL is considered abnormal.
Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories. Some labs use different measurements or test different samples. Talk to your doctor about the meaning of your specific test results.
In a woman who has ovarian cancer, a rise in CA-125 usually means that the disease has progressed or come back (recurred). A decrease in CA-125 usually means the disease is responding to treatment.
In a woman who has not been diagnosed with ovarian cancer, a rise in CA-125 may mean a number of things. While it can mean that she has ovarian cancer, it can also indicate other types of cancer, as well as several diseases such as endometriosis, which are not cancer.
In healthy women, an elevated CA-125 usually does not mean ovarian cancer is present. Most healthy women with an elevated CA-125 do not have ovarian cancer, or any other cancer.
Any woman with an abnormal CA-125 test needs further tests. Sometimes surgery is needed to confirm the cause.
Veins and arteries vary in size from one patient to another and from one side of the body to the other. Obtaining a blood sample from some people may be more difficult than from others.
Other risks associated with having blood drawn are slight but may include:

by Kristen Schaub High-quality sound that envelops and excites you Have you ever listened to your favorite song on the radio, and then heard it live and realized how much more detail and impact it carried? That's the feeling you'll get when you start listening to your music and movie soundtracks played through Polk's LSi M 705 floor-standing speaker. You'll hear a wide, deep soundstage with realistic imaging fleshed out in pinpoint detail, and anchored by effortlessly deep bass. It'll faithfully reproduce your most demanding audio sources from top to bottom, without any help from a separate subwoofer. Use a pair of LSi M 705s to create a high-end stereo music setup or as front speakers in a knock-out home theater system. Building upon the widely acclaimed LSi family of speakers, the new LSi M series incorporates the latest developments in speaker technology, fitted into a newly designed enclosure that's beautifully sculpted and luxuriously finished. Polk's Dynamic Sonic Engine: The speaker within a speaker An exploded view of the Dynamic Sonic Engine with the tweeter and midrange at the top of the speaker. The heart of the LSi M 705 is Polk's Dynamic Sonic Engine. Made up of a 3-1/4" midrange driver and a 1" ring radiator tweeter in its own acoustically sealed enclosure, this tightly spaced duo acts like a "mini-monitor." The precise alignment of the midrange and tweeter allows them to disperse sound over a wide, uniform area with excellent off-axis response in the critical 200 Hz to 2,000 Hz midrange. The ring radiator tweeter features several improvements from the version in the earlier LSi line. A slight reshaping of the tweeter's bullet-shaped phase plug allows it to move even farther out of the baffle, while a redesigned diaphragm has made the tweeter even more efficient. It even has its own tuned enclosure within the Dynamic Sonic Engine. These changes result in higher power handling, extended dynamic range, improved dispersion, and extended high-frequency response all the way up to 30,000 Hz! Advanced driver material for even more realistic sound The original LSi speakers featured a light, stiff mineral-filled polypropylene cone that was "puffed up" with injected air to form a honeycomb-like structure. The new super cell aerated polypropylene uses larger "puffed cells" to create a cone material that's thicker yet lighter than the original. It's used in both the midrange and midbass drivers, as well as both woofers, allowing them to move faster and with more efficiency. Dual woofers deliver smooth, effortless bass Low on the '705's front baffle you'll notice dual 5" x 7" woofers. The oval shape helps them produce tight low-frequency music and movie sounds while maintaining a narrow cabinet width. Plus, each woofer has its own PowerPort® a unique Polk design that positions specially designed "cones" at the mouth of the bass ports to direct moving air to eliminate bass-stealing turbulence. No turbulence means no wasted power, which means more efficient bass response. Four-way design for clear, low-distortion sound The LSi M 705 features a 4-way design, meaning that the tweeter handles only the highest of frequencies, the midrange handles the middle frequencies, the midbass handles the mid to low frequencies, and the woofers handle only the lowest frequencies. This separation allows each driver to perform within its optimum range, meaning you'll hear sound with absolute clarity and stunning impact. And this speaker uses proprietary Orth Crossovers, making it extremely efficient and easier for your receiver or amplifier to drive. Careful cabinet design with a stunning real wood veneer The '705 cabinet is made of heavily braced 3/4" thick MDF with an even thicker front baffle (1-1/4") to keep distortion to a minimum. Each driver has its own separate, non-parallel chamber to increase the efficiency of each driver and eliminate internal resonances and standing waves. Dual gold-plated binding posts let you bi-amp or bi-wire this speaker for even better performance. The magnetic grille easily snaps on and off, and it measures less than 1mm thick, so it won't interfere with the sound. And finally, the curved cabinet is finished with a furniture-grade, real-wood veneer that's hand-polished to achieve a gorgeous glow in your home. Achieve startling realism and seamless surround effects when you build a complete LSi M system. All LSi M models feature the same components and tuning, so you can create any combination of towers in the front of your room with a center channel speaker for crisp dialogue, and either bookshelf speakers or dedicated surround speakers in the back of your room for wraparound sound effects. Create a stunning LSi M system with an LSi M center channel speaker, bookshelf speakers, and tower speakers. Got wire? Most speakers don't include any.

Scratch and Dent Written By Elston, Seattle, Washington on Saturday, February 28, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These are quite nice speakers. My 3 star review relates to the fact that I bought "scratch and dent". The speakers came quickly, two days coast to coast. But, the UPS guy arrived early and there they were at the door. The boxes looked just awful. As if they had been through a war zone. Foam was broken up. Card board practically coming off the box. One had a couple severe scratches on the wood at the top. I doubt that I will see it. Crutchfield says you can return, but I would never be able to get these things wrapped and off again. The second speaker seemed new and had the instructions which were missing in the other box. Still, the wrapping was very beat up. Have to wonder if the "scratch and dent" is really demo speakers. Pros: Attractive. Good sound. Cons: Packages arrived looking beat up as hell.
Good value for money Written By Pramit, New York City on Friday, July 18, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Impressive speakers with good imaging. I recently replaced my Polk's TSi400 speakers with a pair of cheery colored LSi 705s. First impressions: these speakers are heavy and came well packed. These speakers are not your typical boxy-looking floorstanding speakers. They are beautiful to look at with a real beautiful glossy finish with rounded corners. Pros: 1. Clarity: I could hear sounds on soundtracks that I didn't hear on the Tsi400s. These speakers have a good frequency range and it shows. I stream Spotify through my receiver and the sound is crisp with good separation of the various components in the soundtracks. 2. Good bass: You really don't need a subwoofer with these speakers since they already come with built-in subwoofers. Cons: A word of caution: As expected these speakers are power hungry. I use a Onkyo receiver, where as you really need a dedicated amplifier to properly power these Polkies! I am hoping to get an integrated amp for a two-channel setup and perhaps that will make these speakers come alive.
Pure Sound Written By JWC, Springfield, MA on Saturday, October 13, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I am a stereo music lover, and after 20 years of enjoying my ADS M12 tower speakers I decided it was time to upgrade to the latest technology. Dolly at Crutchfield was a great help, and I decided to buy a pair of the Polk LSi M 705 towers. They arrived within a couple of days, and despite being deceivingly thin when viewed from the front due to their oval woofers, these speakers perform! I play jazz, rock, and classical, and I enjoy them all LOUD. The Polks deliver huge performance, unwavering clarity, pair beautifully with my NAD 375BEE integrated amp and my Martin Logan Depth sub -- which I cross over at 30-35 Hz because the 705s get down to everything else effortlessly. Dolly was right; for pure listening pleasure and uncompromising quality, Polk is the best value out there today. Pros: Clarity, power handling, accuracy, wide sound stage, true full audio range reproduction. Cons: Mahogany is so black they might as well be painted versus real wood veneer. Packaging is very complex and it's almost impossible to keep from breaking and damaging the boxes and foam due to their packaging configuration. Luckily, that also makes them UPS-proof!

No wire is included with this speaker. Add connectors to your bulk speaker wire for a neater, easier, and more reliable installation. Cut your speaker wire to the exact length you need. The center channel reproduces most movie dialogue and more than 50% of the soundtrack information. You'll want a speaker that is voice-matched to your main speakers. Complete your home theater speaker system with voice-matched surround speakers. A powered sub delivers high-energy bass to bring your music and movie soundtracks to life.

Ok. Enough is enough. I've been sitting by, watching, waiting for what I thought was a "phase" to go away by itself. But I guess it's not going away. I find myself bargaining, begging, pleading, fighting for attention... attention that she would rather give to another. Spending time with her significant other is evidently so exhilarating, intoxicating, and addictive that our wedding vows no longer mean anything.
And so that's it. Tonight, I gave my wife the ultimatum. It's either me, or Candy Crush. But not both.
She hasn't decided yet. And that doesn't bode well for me.

I interpreted this statement as declarative ; not under duress.

a small navigational error could be catastrophic in nature. therefore, it's been

Pandora's box was not filled with candy.
NOX wrote:Captain's Log - 9/7/2009
Pandora's box was not filled with candy.
Real Name: Jessica McKennen
Character Name: Tobi
Character Gender: Female
Character Class: Alchemist
Appearance: (PICTURE WILL FOLLOW!)
Small, petite, slender. Those are a few words that would describe her stature. Tobi could be considered odd compared to most of the other female characters you'd see in a game like this, sporting a rather flat chest, rather than the back breaking ones you'd normally see. In fact, it's quite common for people to mistake her for a girly boy, though the people who said that all mysteriously disappeared. Incidentally, toads where always found afterwards.
Tobi has shoulder length blond hair and green eyes, and is usually seen wearing a hat. She always carries multiple bags with her, a small backpack where she keeps her recipe scrolls, books and chemistry set and a shoulder bag where she stores her potions.
Dresses in simple cloth, since she never took the Leather Armor proficiency. It provides limited protection, but gives her no negative stats on agility. Her pants are puffy, giving her a rather cone like appearance. And she wears a corset like vest, giving her even less of a chest area. She also sports a rather fancy looking red scarf.
Special skills:
1. Brew Potion
Brews a potion. Strength of potion depends on character level
Potions available:
- Booze. Attempts to inflict <Drunk>
- Healing Potion. Attempts to heal target for 50 health
- Toxic Vial. Attempts to inflict <Poison>
- Firebomb. Area of effect fire damage.
Throw Potion
Throws a potion at target enemy/ally.
Herbalist - passive
Allows the gathering of herbs and spices for use in potions.
2. Potions unlocked:
- Flashbang. Attempts to inflict <Blind>
- Sleeping Beauty. Attempts to inflict <Sleep>. Damage breaks this condition.
5. Spread Condition
Magically spreads the current condition of a enemy/ally too all adjacent creatures. Including allies.
Potions unlocked:
- Nerve Toxin. Attempts to inflict <Paralysis>
10. Lethal Injection
Inject a target with a nasty concoction of different chemicals. Target will take damage and will be inflicted with <Poison>, <Confuse> and <Beserk>. When conditions run out or are removed, target will take damage again. Target must me organic. Must be within mêlee range.
15. Potions unlocked:
- Clarity Potion. Knocks enemies away from target location, and clears any negative effects from nearby allies, and removes positive effects from nearby enemies.
- Raging bottle. Will attempt to inflict <Beserk>
20. Potions unlocked:
- Freezing tonic. Area of effect ice damage.
- Medusa's Blood. Attempts to inflict <Petrify>.
25. Potions unlocked:
- Tornado in a bottle. Area of effect wind damage.
- Silver tongue. Attempts to inflict <Silence>
30. Potions unlocked:
- Acid peel. Creates a puddle of acidic substance. Targets will be slowed by 20% and take continuous damage over the duration of the puddle. Lowers armor values of those caught in the puddle.
Weapon: A simple staff. But mostly her vast array of potions.
Fighting Style:
"I have a potion for that!"
Tobi has a potion for everything. Everything. You're being plagued by goblins? Firebomb. A rock golem has made a new home in your backgarden? Transmogrifier potion. Found yourelf in a dead end maze? A Door Potion. A goblin has gotten off with your daughter, who's now Queen of a goblin tribe? Legal Paper potion.
Tobi has become a tag team with Vodsky, reluctantly, who she provides with the necessary potions to keep up his drunken stacks. Though he seems to be abusing her abilities, since he's always drunk. She doesnt really approve of his drinking, but it prevents him from entering his Hangover status. And thats when he gets really annoying.
History (How Vodksy and Tobi became perma members):
Became a permanent team with Vodsky, seeing how their skills synergize so well. Their personalities however dont synergize as perfect, and she is more often than not found embarrassed by the actions of the Drunken-Fu master.
They met outside the city walls where Tobi had taken on a mob of a higher level Goblins. She had figured she could easily beat them, but soon found herself horribly outnumbered. It was at that point that a Drunken-Fu master came out of the woods, with a battle cry "Drinks are on me!". Or at least was how it was supposed sound, instead it came out as "Bwings aae ohh whee!".
And against all odds the Drunken-Fu master managed to defeat the horde, not that Tobi needed the help according to her she had the situation perfectly under control, and they paired up. Which in hindsight she would say was an even worse idea than attacking the higher level mob, since Vodsky now stuck to her like a fly would to… well lets keep this PG-13.
Tobi is probably also the only reason Vodsky hasnt actually managed to kill himself. Managing (just barely) to keep him in check. Though the reason to why she does this she'll never tell.

4 Surprisingly Good!gotyrnumber | 14/07/2012 | See all gotyrnumber's reviews (31)Hard to deny yourself this game for 14.99, with all the extra DLC added in it does present itself as a tempting bargain.I am not disappointed with the game, I mean, yes, it does have it's flaws but there is a lot of fun to be had to distract you from this.The vast variety of melee weapons makes for a refreshing change from shooting enemies all the time like in most other games.I also like how they take damage and require frequent repair, this encourages you to use different weapons in order to preserve the life span of others.Dead Island is in no way as bad as I was expecting, after reading other reviews and comments on youtube videos I thought it might be an absolute stinker, but thankfully this is not the case.It's hilarious at times, and excellent fun.
3 4 skimBALDYMAN1 | 09/07/2012 | See all BALDYMAN1's reviews (60)The Game is Enjoyable i haven,t tryed any multi/maps yetbut for 1499 with everyyhing in deal but it still has the bugsin the game yes its worth buying for the price happy gaming
5 Pleasant surprisekinetic | 15/09/2012 | See all kinetic's reviews (4)For 14.99 this is the bargain of the year. Didnt expect much but I loved it. It might not be perfect but running over zombies and dismembering them with loads of costumasibale weapons never fails
4 Multiplayer is great fun, apart from the persistent bugs.MathewDevlin | 27/11/2012 | See all MathewDevlin's reviews (2)100 percent worth the money. Great fun to play, particularly with friends online - playing with headsets make it great fun. loads of customizable weapons. The map is large. And there's loads of quests, side quests and on going quests ect. The levelling system is fun and each character has their own strengths and weaknesses, so it's it makes for tactical decisions between you and your pals in multi player mode....The bugs online can sometimes suck. Be aware that if your connection isn't great, the game tends to freeze and you'll have to reset your PS3 and will lose a little bit of your progress on the current mission that you were doing. Other than that, good game at a good price. If you like hacking or blowing up zombies to smithereens, then buy.
4 Worth the moneybayley9 | 25/07/2012 | See all bayley9's reviews (1)Quite a bargain at 15quid! lots of hours of play and its really fun, best zombie game i played, i like the upgrading the weapons system and the mods to make your own, the story not the greatest but enough to keep you going to the end!

Sheldon: There are post-prom mating rituals?
Penny: Not always. Unless your date drives a van with an air mattress, then always.
Sheldon: Well, if it's part of the prom experience, then I'm open to it.
Penny: You're kidding.
Sheldon: I may be an alien, but I have urges.If Amy wants to copulate by firing her eggs into space, well, then, I will happily catch them with the reproductive sac on my upper flermin. I'm not the best at reading facial cues, but I can see that you're a little turned on.

Had been considering this cabinet for weeks and finally purchased in the white. I consider myself an experienced furniture assembler who enjoys it and my home is crammed with "rustic" assembled pine furniture, so I discounted the remarks about "wobbliness" and other issues. Well, pride goes before a fall. While made of very soft, lower grade pine with plenty of filler, there seems to have been some care done in the design and assembly instructions. The hardware is various, the cams are strong but the additional screws strip easily. For the most part, holes were drilled correctly, more or less. I coped with 1) Big holes for the thin dowels were lavishly filled with wood glue, but at least all the holes were drilled deeply enough. 2) Re-drilled enlarged cam holes were off in 2 spots, so when the cams were tightened the wood split a bit, also glued 3) Off-drilled pilot holes for the doors - by deliberately forcing the screws I got the doors more or less straight, but the cheap hinge design doesn't allow for adjustment. In the future I may replace the hinges and the plastic shelf pins (I added 1 inch L brackets already top and bottom for more stability). 4) A knob pulled off immediately - there is a little metal collar in the knob to hold the screw, bu the pine is so soft it just pulls out - replaced with longer wood screw. When assembly was over, I had a headache, an eye twitch, and had to go lay down for a while. But, you get this together and it is just so gosh-darned cute, fit the space in my tiny kitchen perfectly, the 5-foot height is great as it fits under fixed shelving and you can put stuff on top, and it's real wood - now assembled I am very happy with it. With all the issues there are a lot of good things to say, like the pre-drilled holes in the pressboard back, the sides are not plywood, the holes were mostly drilled correctly and it went together square (no pounding with a rubber mallet), nice cream color, well-packed, good instructions, holds tall juice bottles etc., and the nice paneled doors. So I'd say purchase this with the reservation - have wood glue on hand, experience is useful, and so is having extra misc. hardware and tools. Definitely a rustic piece with a lot of charm when assembled - also fast ship from Overstock.
I just received this extra-tall cabinet in the antique white color and I'm not 100% happy with it. It has a crack in the wood in the lower door, which if I didn't have to ship all the way back, I would have returned. The bottom is also yellowed and it is top heavy, so much that it fell over while I was screwing the backside in and could have been a disaster had not someone been there to catch it for me. The top heaviness could definitely be an issue unless you put some heavy stuff maybe in the bottom. But, overall, its ok for the price and the fact that it is real wood is a plus. I wouldn't buy another, but its good enough to keep and not go through the hassle of sending back. If you are looking for cheap storage in a small space, then it is probably fine for that.
Very poorly made product. Wood is bowed. Front door is cracked. Not sturdy. Top heavy.
I was very pleased with this product. I did not find the assembly as difficult as other reviewers, but there definitely were a few pre-drilled holes that were slightly misaligned. However, the extra effort to overcome these minor flaws was well worth it. The cabinet works well for my purposes and looks great.
the pine cabinet is very nice, not bulky and easy to fit together, real pine wood and doesnt look out of place with the other furniture if you have a small apartment and it cannot fit in the kitchen.
The description says "some assembly required", but actually complete assembly is required. It's really a cabinet kit, not a cabinet. It comes in a flat box completely disassembled. Every screw, nut, and hinge must be screwed into place. It took my husband and I a couple of hours to do it. So, it was a lot more work than I was expecting. But, once we got it together, it is a very nice cabinet. The only other small issue being that it off-gassed a foul chemical odor for a good few weeks.
Beautiful but not as tall as I expected.
Doors do not hang properly. They are somewhat warped. Quality is not there.
This cabinet looks nice, but it's not sturdy. My husband put it together, and had very little trouble. He did both in less than an hour. It's a bit top heavy, so I suggest putting a heavier item in the bottom. Opening and closing the doors can be a challenge. Overall I like these cabinets. I'm glad I purchased them, they serve my purpose very nicely.
It's a flimsy cabinet. Doors don't stay closed, but it does hold my pantry items.
