Managing Vulnerabilities in Virtualized and Cloud-based Deployments
May 30 2013
60 mins
Ron Gula (CEO), Jack Daniel (PM) - Tenable Network Security
Technologies such as virtualization and cloud-delivered services offer organizations the benefits of hardware consolidation and rapid provisioning and deployment. However, they also bring security and compliance challenges that break traditional vulnerability management solutions by allowing un-scanned and unpatched systems to become active in any part of the organization. A new model that offers real-time identification and assessment of these technologies is required to mitigate the risks. Find out more about it in this webcast…

There has been a lot of press lately on the escalating cyber threats especially from China.

Is your Network Infrastructure Adequately Protected?
May 15 2013
63 mins
Jack Daniel: Technical Product Manager, Paul Asadoorian: Product Evangelist - Tenable Network Security
Network devices including firewalls and routers are the gatekeepers to "endpoint" resources and are increasingly using complex software components. These devices are often remotely accessible and whose configuration changes regularly, making them susceptible to vulnerabilities and misconfigurations. To add to this, network and security teams are often separate parts of an organization often leading to incomplete understanding of vulnerable infrastructure. In this webcast, we examine how to identify vulnerable devices and communicate them across multiple teams and ultimately fortify these devices from configuration and security issues.

Apr 3 2013

Mad Men, Music and Mirdles: Highlights from Macy's Passport
This past Thursday night, San Francisco enjoyed a little taste of something between a fashion show and a Broadway play, with a dash of Cirque de Soleil thrown in for good measure. The highly entertaining event was full of surprises (celeb guests, a rain shower on the runway and even a mirdle sighting!), so in case you weren't there to experience it yourself, here's the rundown of the seven most memorable moments at Macy's Passport:
1. The food: Ohhh the food. Taste Catering pulled out all the stops for the reception, perfecting everything from Steak Poivre to chicken and pumpkin empanadas. We quickly mastered the art of balancing an hors d'oeuvres plate atop a champagne flute and overheard numerous guests saying that they felt like they were tasting dishes on Top Chef. Enough said.
2. Surprise celebrity guests: The two stars of the evening certainly had one thing in common: must-see Sunday night TV. Bryan Batt (Mad Men's closeted homosexual Sal Romano) kicked off the fashion show with a heartfelt intro and Mechad Brooks (True Blood's Eggs Benedict) wrapped things up on the runway during the 'Glampire' segment.
3. The gold wrap jumpsuit from Rachel Rachel Roy: Despite the terrible photo we captured, Rachel Roy's glitzy opening piece really set the mood for what was to come. The entire collection was energetic, bold and youthful and the music (From The Ting Tings to Bette Davis Eyes) was the icing on the neon cake.
4. The Dancers: We were excited to see Gwen Stefani's Harajuku Girls live and up-close, but it's the younger set of child dancers clad in neon pom-poms and argyle socks that really stole the scene...not to mention the dance troupe who transitioned from all-American school kids to industrial goth punk, all in one show.
5. The Music: Macy's kept it hot with live performances by DJ Rashida during Rachel Rachel Roy and local hip-hop sensations Zion I with K. Flay during American Rag.
6. Runway rainstorm: Kudos to the Wacoal b'tempt'd lingerie-clad models for not falling after being tasked with walking through water in mega-heels. Was this Macy's Passport or the "extreme modeling" of America's Next Top Model?
7. The Tallia Orange show: We won't soon forget the elaborate Venetian masquerade ball, complete with opera singer, gondola scene and candelabra as the new runway model accessory. But it's really the daring rope and ring acrobatics that kept us on the edge of our seats.

The National Academy of Sciences is a private, nonprofit, self-perpetuating society of distinguished schol-
ars engaged in scientific and engineering research, dedicated to the furtherance of science and technology
and to their use for the general welfare. On the authority of the charter granted to it by the Congress in
1863, the Academy has a mandate that requires it to advise the federal government on scientific and techni-
cal matters. Dr. Bruce M. Alberts is president of the National Academy of Sciences.
The National Academy of Engineering was established in 1964, under the charter of the National Acad-
emy of Sciences, as a parallel organization of outstanding engineers. It is autonomous in its administration
and in the selection of its members, sharing with the National Academy of Sciences the responsibility for
advising the federal government. The National Academy of Engineering also sponsors engineering programs
aimed at meeting national needs, encourages education and research, and recognizes the superior achieve-
ments of engineers. Dr. William A. Wulf is president of the National Academy of Engineering.
The Institute of Medicine was established in 1970 by the National Academy of Sciences to secure the
services of eminent members of appropriate professions in the examination of policy matters pertaining
to the health of the public. The Institute acts under the responsibility given to the National Academy of
Sciences by its congressional charter to be an adviser to the federal government and, on its own initiative,
to identify issues of medical care, research, and education. Dr. Harvey V. Fineberg is president of the
Institute of Medicine.
The National Research Council was organized by the National Academy of Sciences in 1916 to associate
the broad community of science and technology with the Academy's purposes of furthering knowledge and
advising the federal government. Functioning in accordance with general policies determined by the Acad-
emy, the Council has become the principal operating agency of both the National Academy of Sciences
and the National Academy of Engineering in providing services to the government, the public, and the
scientific and engineering communities. The Council is administered jointly by both the Academies and
the Institute of Medicine. Dr. Bruce M. Alberts and Dr. William A. Wulf are chair and vice chair,
respectively, of the National Research Council.
The Transportation Research Board is a division of the National Research Council, which serves the
National Academy of Sciences and the National Academy of Engineering. The Board's mission is to promote
innovation and progress in transportation through research. In an objective and interdisciplinary setting,
the Board facilitates the sharing of information on transportation practice and policy by researchers and
practitioners; stimulates research and offers research management services that promote technical
excellence; provides expert advice on transportation policy and programs; and disseminates research
results broadly and encourages their implementation. The Board's varied activities annually engage more
than 5,000 engineers, scientists, and other transportation researchers and practitioners from the public and
private sectors and academia, all of whom contribute their expertise in the public interest. The program is
supported by state transportation departments, federal agencies including the component administrations of
the U.S. Department of Transportation, and other organizations and individuals interested in the
development of transportation. www.TRB.org

TCRP Report 105: Strategies to Increase Coordination of Transportation Services

Senior Program Officer portation services for persons with disabilities, clients of human services agencies, and
Transportation Research others who can be described as transportation disadvantaged. The research results are
Board presented in a report and on an accompanying CD-ROM.
During the past 20 years, a great deal of effort has been directed to improving coor-
dination of publicly funded transportation services for the transportation disadvan-
taged. These services include transportation for persons with disabilities, clients of
human services agencies, recipients of Medicaid, participants in Headstart programs,
and others with special needs who can be described as transportation disadvantaged.
The United States Department of Transportation (U.S. DOT) and the Department of
Health and Human Services (DHHS) have worked together for more than a decade to
foster increased coordination among the transportation services sponsored by each
agency. Several states have followed suit and are pursuing improved coordination of
their transportation services.
Despite the progress that has been made, there are still many more opportunities
throughout the United States to improve the local and regional coordination of trans-
portation services for the transportation disadvantaged. Duplication of services, insuf-
ficient funds, unmet trip demand, numerous regulatory constraints, lack of interagency
coordination, and poor service quality still exist. Service area boundaries often preclude
trips from being made by publicly funded transportation to important destinations, such
as medical facilities, jobs, and training. In addition, rapid growth and suburbanization
in many communities have made it far more costly and difficult to provide accessibil-
ity by publicly funded transportation to many destinations.
Under TCRP Project H-30, "Strategies to Increase Coordination of Transportation
Services for the Transportation Disadvantaged," the research team of TranSystems Cor-
poration, in association with the Institute for Transportation Research and Education, and
Planners Collaborative, conducted the research project. The objective of the research was
to develop strategies for initiating or improving coordination of local and regional pub-
licly funded transportation services for the transportation disadvantaged. The results of
this research may be used throughout the United States by public transportation agencies,
human resources agencies, transportation brokers, planning organizations, and other
organizations and entities seeking methods and concepts that can be used to initiate or
improve the local or regional coordination of publicly funded transportation services.
The study included the following elements:
� Documentation of current funding sources, decision-making processes, and ser-
vice types that can be utilized by entities wishing to improve the coordination of
their transportation services;
OCR for page R1
� New case studies highlighting approaches and strategies not investigated to date;
� Collection of updated information about previous case study sites that have been
shown to illustrate the benefits of coordination and/or important elements of suc-
cessful strategies; and
� Analysis of existing and new case study information to identify overall themes,
elements of success, and recommended approaches.
The research report is presented in seven chapters that present (1) an introduction
that includes a "road map" to the final report; (2) a history of transportation coordina-
tion in the United States; (3) a discussion of current coordination trends and challenges;
(4) a review of transportation services and options; (5) the processes used to plan, bud-
get, and promote coordinated transportation services; (6) a review of funding sources;
and (7) information on technology and its application to transportation coordination.
Most chapters are supported by case studies. TCRP Report 105 includes six appendixes
presented on the accompanying CD-ROM (CRP-CD-51). Complete case studies can
be found in Appendix A. Appendix B consists of a questionnaire that can be used to
inventory providers of transportation services for the transportation disadvantaged.
Information about state funding sources is provided in Appendix C. Appendixes D and
E contain information about private foundations and foundation grant resources. An
index of previously published coordination case studies and guidebooks, organized by
topic, is presented in Appendix F.

Benelli SBE II Slug Gun / Hornady SST
Just purchased a Benelli SBE II with rifled slug barrel for deer hunting. Shot a couple different brands of slugs through it. Hornady SSTs and Lightfields both grouped really well. The reason I bought the Benelli is because it has a faster twist barrel which can stabilize the lighter, faster SSTs. Planning to move away from the Lightfields which shot beautifully out of my 870 out to 100yrds. Found they dropped 36-40" @ 200 when zeroed at 100yrds. When I shot SSTs out of my 870 they grouped at about an inch at 50yrds, but I couldn't hit a paper plate at 100yrds??? Apparently the twist in my 870 barrel was too slow.
Anyway... the SST box has a ballistics chart on it. Says that if it's approximately +3" @ 100 yards it will hit -7 @ 200.
Well... I shot a couple really tight groups 2-3" high at 100. Then moved out to 200. Shot a respectful 4-5" group, but they impacted an average of 24" low.
Why would the box claim an approximate 7" drop, but I got a 24" drop? Would love to hear any input.

An off-duty police detective accused of running over a Bronx grandmother while he was drunk three years ago was found guilty Thursday.
Kevin Spellman, a 22 year veteran on the police force, was convicted of manslaughter in the second degree Thursday for killing 66-year-old Drana Nikac.
Prosecutors said Spellman had a blood alcohol level two and a half times above the legal limit at the time of the incident.
His lawyer said he's disappointed with the verdict and that his client just wants to make amends.
"From the very beginning it's been his stated motivation to talk to the family," Spellman's attorney Peter Brill said. "Unfortunately because there was a trial going on he didn't have that opportunity. But, he has been asking to apologize."
The case drew criticism because Spellman refused a breathalyzer test both at the scene and at the police precinct. It took cops more than five hours to draw his blood.
He'll be sentenced in February and faces 15 years behind bars.

Anticipated to be the West Coast's Most Attended Travel Show Ever, Unicomm Partners with Los Angeles Magazine, NBCLA and the Long Beach Convention Center for 2012's Los Angeles Travel & Adventure Show
Milford, CT, (March 25, 2011) – On the heels of 2011's show success, Unicomm, the nation's largest travel show producer, is thrilled to announce the Long Beach Convention Center will play host to the 2012 Los Angeles Travel & Adventure Show. Previously Unicomm co-produced the Los Angeles Times Travel & Adventure Show. The 2012 show will take place January 14-15 with new partnerships with Los Angeles magazine and NBC LA. Marking a return to the show's Long Beach roots and offering an optimal location for both Orange County and Los Angeles residents, the show is already expected to draw more than 20,000 attendees, in addition to exhibitors from across the globe.
"Long Beach is centrally located between Los Angeles and Orange County, plus the Convention Center's location offers convenient access to shopping, dining, entertainment, accommodations and the beautiful coastline," said John Golicz, CEO of Unicomm. "Because the new location enables us to reach a larger, higher demographic audience, and combined with our new, exclusive and relevant media partnerships, we are forecasting the largest turnout of any travel show in the West."
"Long Beach looks forward to the Travel & Adventure Show returning to our city," said Steve Goodling, president & CEO, Long Beach Convention & Visitor Bureau. "Those attending the show to learn about exotic cities and countries to travel to will find a revitalized and vibrant downtown Long Beach and a downtown waterfront with over 100 quality restaurants in an 8-block area around the convention center."
Los Angeles magazine, the leading authority and indispensible guide for the affluent and influential population of Southern California, will work with Unicomm to raise awareness for the 2012 event and partner in executing Los Angeles' most attended travel event.
NBC LA, the West Coast flagship of the 10 NBC owned-and-operated Local Media stations, has also joined forces with Unicomm to become an official broadcast media partner of the event – an extension of Unicomm's partnership with NBC across the U.S. where NBC has promoted and covered the Travel & Adventure events in Washington DC and Santa Clara, CA.
Additional 2012 media partners include ClearChannel, CBS Radio, Los Angeles Consortium of Online Travel (LACOT), KABC-AM and KLOS-FM to guarantee widespread awareness of the show's new location and its unique offerings.
"NBC LA is excited to be partnering with Unicomm, one of the leading travel show producers in the country and LA Magazine, one the region's most prominent publications. We look forward to expanding on the popularity of the Los Angeles Travel & Adventure Show by presenting it to our vast audience which spans seven Southern California counties." said Shawn Edwards, VPOS of NBC LA.
"Our new and more relevant partnerships allow us to deliver more value to our exhibitors and visitors at the 2012 Los Angeles Travel & Adventure Show," says John Golicz, CEO of Unicomm. "Los Angeles Magazine is a premier source of news and entertainment for Los Angeles and surrounding communities, NBCLA has an unparalleled reach within the marketplace and a deep support of travel and tourism, and LACOT will help us bridge our traditional and social media initiatives. Modeled on our successful new media mix we have used across the country this year, which has delivered 25% - 40% gains in attendance, we are thrilled to be working together and look forward to create even more meaningful opportunities for all stakeholders."
"The Travel & Adventure Show series has become the premiere destination for travel providers from around the globe to reach a highly engaged and qualified audience and the show is a perfect partner for us as our readers are avid travelers," said Erika Anderson, Publisher of Los Angeles magazine. "Our magazine and website prominently feature travel as a mainstay area of content; taking the reader, locals and visitors to Los Angeles, on virtual trips with our signature destination guides to Arizona, Lake Tahoe, Napa Valley, Palm Springs, San Diego, Mexico, and more. Through partnering with Unicomm, the event host, we are excited to expose our readers to all aspects of the show, reach an expanded audience and create more opportunities for exhibitors and attendees alike."
In addition to the new location and media partners, the 2012 show will feature opportunities for on-site travel bookings; speaker seminars with travel experts such as Peter Greenberg, Patricia Schultz, Andrew Zimmern and Mark DeCarlo and on-site adventure opportunities such as a scuba tank, zip lines, rock walls and the popular Fiery Foods ChallengeTM;.
The 2012 announcements come on the heels of the successful Los Angeles Times Travel & Adventure Show, which Unicomm co-produced for the past six years. Taking place March 19-20 at the Los Angeles Convention Center, the event proved to be another success for attendees and exhibitors alike, boasting exhibitors from around the world and more than 15,000 attendees. From zip-lining and scuba diving to rock climbing, attendees had unique opportunities to experience popular activities in exotic destinations.
In the past eight years, Unicomm has produced 35 Travel & Adventure Shows nationally, with Los Angeles as a top show destination. "We come to the [Los Angeles] show every year and it has definitely helped us brand our destination…The amount of people has been great and it shows the consumers are still planning their vacations," said Kimberly Adams of the Temecula Valley CVB.

Look at Alex Smith, this man brings them to the brink of the Super Bowl last year, has a really good record this year 13 tds and 5 interceptions, always finds a way to get down field and win games in the clutch and hes not starting? I hope Harbaugh has a plan like he is resting his head so he is 100% for the playoffs. Or they are letting Kappernick start a few games until he is on his A game again? Because this is what we see with backups, they win a few games in spectacular fashion and then they just burn out quick. Recent example would be Kevin Kolb who finagled a 20 million dollar contract off of 4 games with the Eagles, heck Brett Farve 10 yrs from now could have done what Kolb did with that Eagles O-Line, you know the one thats not there anymore just ask Mr Vick. Or John Slkelton with 2 tds and 5 interceptions this year. Another example of a player who was winning but was replaced for doing their job would be Jeff George when he played for the Mn Vikings,replaceing Randall Cunningham and going 8-2 in the regular season and then winning the first game of the playoffs just to not be resigned by Dennis Green the next year because they only offered him 1.4 million dollar deal and was told to shop around. He ended up signing with the Redskins for 14.5 million dollars the next yr but was replaced by coach Marty Schottinheimer for Tony Banks. Tony who? lol. Remember Jeff Garcia? He always posted a winning record but was cut by the 49ers and the Eagles, oh speaking of the Eagles how about Mcnabb after getting deep into the playoffs in 2008 being tossed to the Redskins where Tom Brady couldnt even lead these guys to a playoff game with the awful defense year after year. The point is the NFL should stand for Need A Frontal Lobotomy for the awful personel decisions made year after year. Alex Smith wont be the last player to win big just to get injured and lose a opprotunity to play for a great team only to end up out of the league or heaven forbid you end up on the Cardinals, Lions or Redskins or Dolphins or replaced and benched for some guy who does great for four games and then crumbles. In life and in football coaches, bosses wives, girlfreinds etc never seem to recognize a good thing when its staring you in the face. So the lesson here people is no matter how good you are chances you will be replaced by some one not as good, smart, strong or wealthy as you are, I mean even millionaries and movie stars get dumped so what chance do regualr guys have in this world.

Creating Waves of Awareness
" The high and only mission of the physician is to restore the sick to
health to cure as it is termed"
The very first aphorism of Organon says it all. To achieve this Hahnemann
advised us to be skillful in three basic spheres -
# The knowledge of diseases.
# The knowledge of drugs.
# The knowledge of application of drug knowledge to disease knowledge.
If we give a bird's eye view towards Homoeopathy since it's beginning upto modern ages, we can see there are various types of prescriptions with different angles of thoughts to achieve the desired similimum. The most interesting fact is that almost all these types achieve successes and that too through the hands of great stalwarts!
There are several methods to make a homoeopathic prescription. Some of them are:
All the symptoms of the patient are taken into consideration. But greater stress is given upon the individualistic symptoms. The symptoms are evaluated and
arranged to get a portrait simulating Materia Medica. If matching occurs the very medicine is selected as similimum. Sometime, the physician has to take the help of repertory and calculatemathematically the most matching medicines and finally the similimum is confirmed by the study of Materia Medica.
Particulars to Generals
This is the innovation of Boenninghausen. Here, all the particular symptoms are considered as general symptoms and they are to be arranged as a 'Complete
symptoms' through the doctrine of analogy.
Generals to particulars
After proper homoeopathic case taking the characteristic symptoms of the case are to be evaluated in the Kentian way, i.e.
– Mentals ;
- Physical generals ;
- Characteristic particulars ;
- Common symptoms.
Some authorities demand that in the background of every case there is some miasm, and so if anti miasmatic medicines are applied, they will be cured.
Here, the physician depends mainly upon the general make up of the patient along with his susceptibility, diathesis and temperament. Drs. Gravougl, Clarke,
Burnett used this method often.
Here, the prescriber picks up one or few more striking, singular, uncommon, peculiar, characteristic symptoms and base their prescriptions upon them only.
Drs. Lippe, Guernsey, Allen, Nash used to prescribe in this way.
Here, the pathogenesity of the medicine on a particular part or organ of the body are considered to make the basis of prescription. Drs. Burnett, Hughes, O.Lesser, etc. used to prescribe in this way.
After a thorough case taking, the actual cause is searched for and the prescription is mainly based on those causative factors. Dr.Boger was a pioneer in estabishing the causation as very important parameter.
Different medicines become well indicated in the diseases appearing in different seasons.
Rainy season…………….Rhus Tox., Dulc., Nat.Sulph.
Winter…………………...Acon., Bryonia, Gels.
Summer………………….Ant.Crud., Glon., Nat.Mur.
These medicines do promptly act but especially if the case be an acute one.
During drug proving the serial appearance of the symptoms in the provers are judged and in any case if such sequence be observed, the prescriptions by its
similarity produce marvelous results.
A process of treatment with nosodes, not depending upon the symptoms but depending upon the material cause of the disease.
Various other non-conventional (and non-recommendable) methods
a. Poly prescriptions
b. Mixtures
c. Group medicines
d. Specifics, Tonics, Injections, etc.
So nice Post DR. ARINDAM DUTTA.....

SunFood Coconut Oil -- 24 oz
I trust Sunfoods' Purity.
This product is one of the best forms of Coconut Oil I have ever brought. I have brought other SunFood products and I trust their purity and the quality they bring to their products. They are what they say they are.
July 10, 2013
I've tried others. This is by far the best.
May 22, 2010
Good to Go...
Great stuff, jsut ordered a second jar. Trying Pacific brand this time also to compare w/this brand. I have to think some better brands share the same source or similar location, just a hunch. Great stuff though.
December 2, 2009
Best Coconut Oil Available
I have tried several brands of coconut oil, including Nutiva. Sunfood Organic Coconut Oil, in my opinion, is the only oil that comes close to the authentic flavor of coconuts. The amber bottle it is housed in is also a great plus.
Nutiva is a close second.
July 27, 2009
This is by far the most amazing coconut oil I've ever tried and I've gone through my share of different brands. It may seem a bit pricey initially but when you taste it you will know/smell/taste the difference. It is smoother, not bitter and silky.I use it in my smoothies. Absolutely incredible as a face/body/lip moisturizer & hair gloss. Sunfood Nutrition simply is purity at its finest.

Sometimes you want to make a statement with a piece of furniture, sometimes you want to solve a problem. I would not consider this "statement" furniture, but it has sure solved the problem of shoes scattered on the floor inside the front door. I know when I buy a particle board storage item that I need to check the hardware as well as the spacing and depth of the pre-drilled holes before assembling. This piece went together without any problems, holds plenty of shoes, and is not ugly. For the price I paid, I am very happy with it for those reasons. I would not use it for seating, but put a runner on it and some plants or a lamp, and it is a useful accent piece.
I bought this shoe storage bench for my daugher's appartment. It arived promptly. You need to assemble a few pieces, simple and easy. The bench looks great and we both like it very much. Quality is great, color is nice and overall product is highly reccomended to all. Finally, all the shoes are nicely stored, easy to grab and great looking. I was slightly hesitant at first, due to lack of front cover. I wondered if this will look messy with shoes sticking out. None of this ever happened and my daughter LOVES the bench and the look of it. Finally, I highly recommend this unexpensive, nice and elegant bench. You will not be dissapointed.
I began my journey looking for a shoe organizer at the Container Store. I wanted a solid furniture looking shoe organizer that would match our decor. The shoe organizers at the Container Store were either metal or cheap particle board and flimsy. Next stop Bed Bath and Beyond...nothing there either. I looked at Overstock and found this one. I don't like to buy furniture like items sight un-seen, but I gave it a chance. WOW! The packaging was incredible (50 pounds I believe). I put it together myself following the clear instructions. (hint build on a carpeted area to avoid scratches). I did have a few minor scratches when I was done, but with this piece comes a furniture touch up pen and they were easily touched up. My husband was pleased, and we have since ordered another one. If you have the space get this shoe organizer.
Overall I liked this shoe rack. Only problem I found was, shoe space are too small for "two" shoes to fit. So eventually, I use one space for one shoe. Only kids shoes fit in single space. I wished, they have given (lets say 50% more) big shoe space, even though total number of spaces are getting reduced.
Do not hesitate to purchase this shoe bench. It even takes my sons Size 12 shoes in one cubbyhole. Boots however will take up two cubbyhole's. It looks nice sitting by the back door and I particularly enjoy not tripping over scattered and random shoes left by family members. Sturdy enough to be used as a seat when changing into slippers (and vice-versa). Very pleased with this product.
Great way to mange shoes in our entryway. Easy to assemble and sturdy. Just wish it had a cushion for bench seat.
This shoe cubby is flimsy and the inserts for the shoes move back and forth from the front to the back when inserting or removing shoes. The Cubbies are not big enough for two adult shoes to fit in even if turned on their sides. The top had a dented corner and at the back of the top some of the plastic coating was damaged and torn. I wish I had gone to XXXX for a similar item as their quality is on a higher level for the same pricing. They did include a touch up pen but it is for slight scratches and not the damages I noted. It was also very dirty and I had to clean it before putting it together.
Perfect for the entry way. The grandkids will be able to keep their shoes out of the way. Easy to put together, and the new wood smell is wonderful! Just love it!
it keeps the shoes off the floor and isn't an eye sore when you walk in the door.
Beautiful, sturdy piece of furniture. Easy to build and comes with a marker to color in any scratches (mostly used on the rough edges of some of the cubby walls). I noticed that if the cubbies are installed the right way up, then the top cubbies will be slightly larger which allows for ease of use in spite of the trim across the top. I have a few pair of wedges and high heels that are slightly too tall to stand upright, so they go in on their sides. I have ankle-height boots that fit sideways in the side cubbies too. Sturdy enough to sit on, though I find it just slightly too high to sit for putting my shoes on (ironically, and I am not short, at 5'7"). Still, I am very pleased with the purchase which is a nice addition to our existing bedroom suite.
