Very sturdy and roomy These rolling duffles are deceptively large and hold a lot of clothes. The handle makes it easy for kids to manage their own luggage. This won't fit in the overhead bin if you're hoping to use it as a carry on. Lots of great pockets to keep things organized. Zippers are heavy duty.

Great product. Bought one of these for my daughter and a friend of hers, in the colors of their choice. Checked them both with an airline, round trip. Came out in perfect condition. They have used them for almost a year now, stuffing them with an unbelievable amount of clothes, books, and electronics, and dragging them across parking lots and into lots of hotels. Still in wonderful shape. We travel a lot and these have held up much better than smaller bags we have purchased in the past. The girls love them.

Not up to snuff I ordered this bag just before leaving for South America. I had purchased a Lucas bag in 1998 that has been all over the world with me, but I can't seem to find another like it. It is just now starting to wear out on the bottom. So I search the web and finally found what seemed to be a close representation, however, when I got the bag I was disappointed in the quality. It's an OK bag, but don't plan on checking this bag on an airlines. There are NO back ribs/runners to give the bag support on the bottom. The walls of the bag are thinner than needed for protection as a checked bag on a plane. If you are going somewhere in your car or to a hotel then this bag would work. SO once I received the bag and inspected it, I pulled out my Lucas and used it once more. I love my Lucas...please find me another!

Poor Quality Shows on First Use I purchased three Olympia 29 inch duffels. They appeared to offer good value on arrival, but on the first use, two of the three main zippers failed to keep the bags closed. The manufacturer needed to spend a few more pennies and make a bag with easy to use and reliable closures. They look good but you should expect even inexpensive bags to last for ten trips or more. These zippers jammed and split before the bags got into the car!

Zipper... I purchased this item for my kids clothing when we traveled 1000 miles via airplane. Seemed to be an excellent choice going out to our distination but returning was a different story. The zipper would not close properly coming home so we had to hope that it would stay closed good enough for the rough travel ahead. I'm not sure what self fixing zippers mean but it didn't fix its self by any means. I liked the size and the placements of all the pockets. We must have just got one with a bad zipper. Not real happy with my options as far as returning or exchanging at this point!!!

HUGE bag! Do not be deceived, this bag is enormous!!! I don't know how you couldn't pack for 1-2 weeks in this bag, it is so much bigger than the pictures. I am actually returning this bag and ordering the smaller one because it is so large. But as far as the structure, it seems like a very sturdy bag and the color (pink) is electric. Like I said, it is too big for me, so I am getting the same model just in a smaller size. So, yes, I think this is going to be a great bag for me. I was looking for more of a weekend to 4 day bag that I could carry on, not check. This is definitely a checked bag. Be careful, because there is so much room, it would be very easy to hit that 50# weight limit.

3 were fabulous, the 4th not so much! I purchased 4 of these bags for my four children. We just returned from our trip and one of the bags split along the seam (about 10 inches) and had to be duct taped to make it home. It was split before I even started packing for the return trip, so it's not because I filled it too much. It was empty. That hasn't stopped me from replacing it, I am ordering another today. I am hoping it was just a defective one, since the other 3 dufflebags were great. They held up and were stuffed to the brim coming home. I am amazed by the amount of room there is. Each child's clothes only used up about half the bag, there was still room for toys, books and stuffies. While packing I was thrilled with the room. They were easy to use, my children are young and were still able to wheel them with ease. They are a brilliant color, so it was easy to spot ours when picking up our luggage. The price is amazing. These are the best suitcase/duffle bags I have ever owned. I am just going to assume that the one bad was defective when we bought it. We had no issue with zippers as others have had.

Whether you choose to purchase your first-aid kits completely pre-assembled or you prefer to put your own items together, there are a few essentials that are the foundation of a good first-aid kit.
Benefits of Using a Travel Backpack When Traveling
Travel backpacks offer a number of benefits for all types of travelers and may be an attractive alternative to larger tote bags, duffel bags and miniature suitcases. Whether you're traveling with a backpack over a long distance or traveling by plane with a small backpack as a carry-on, use a travel backpack designed with extra compartments and tight-fitting, portable style to ensure a comfortable travel experience. Easy to stow and store: The design of a travel backpack makes it easy to store it in overhead bins in a bus, train or airplane. The soft sides of a backpack let it conform to tight storage spaces. Many travel backpacks have compression straps that let you cinch the packs contents down to take up less space. Comfort: Travel backpacks put less strain on your body than most other kinds of luggage because their weight doesn't pull on one side of your body. Travel backpacks are designed to evenly distribute their load on your shoulders and hips, making them easy to carry for several hours. Thick straps with lots of padding make it even more comfortable. Keeps travelers organized: Many travel backpacks are designed with several compartments to store smaller items, such as water bottles, a cell phone, MP3 player, PDA, passport and subway tokens. This makes it easier to stay organized while traveling, ensuring that all your basic items and accessories are within easy reach. Easy to move around: Probably the biggest benefit of using a travel backpack is the ease of movement it provides. You don't have to worry about dragging a rolling suitcase up a flight of stairs. A travel backpack is also easier to maneuver through a crowd of people than most other types of luggage. Protects items from the elements: Many travel backpacks are made with water-resistant and waterproof fabrics that protect your valuables no matter what the weather forecast may look like. Travel backpacks made with polywick fabric, ballistic nylon and other weatherproofing materials are especially beneficial for travelers who will be outdoors for most of their trip.

What to Pack for Africa's Highest Peak
Imagine that you are planning a trip that will take you from the equator to Antarctica in seven days. Now imagine that you have to limit the amount of gear you pack to 35 pounds or less. The task is getting more complicated. What kind of luggage would you choose and how would you pack for a trip that encompasses such extreme changes in climate and altitude? When Erica Davis, a paraplegic athlete, and Tara Butcher, a physically challenged athlete, climb Africa's highest peak, they will have to answer exactly those questions. The challenge: Mount Kilimanjaro rises from nearly sea level all the way up to 19,330 feet. The trail climbs from the hot bushland through rain forest, moorland, alpine desert and arctic glaciers up to the rocky Uhuru peak. A climb like Mt. Kili presents special challenges when it comes to luggage, clothing and gear. Being prepared for the weather and temperature extremes is a necessity, but it's also important not to pack too much. There is a 35-pound weight limit to each piece of luggage carried by a porter. Most climbers pack one 35-pound capacity bag to go up with a porter and one small daypack to carry up themselves. The daypack: Erica and Tara will have 7 days to summit Tanzania's Mount Kilimanjaro. As they pass from one ecological zone to the next, their needs will change and so will the contents of their daypacks. Each day Erica and Tara will repack their daypacks in anticipation of the specific challenges of the day's journey. In general, their daypacks will include things like water, snacks, dry clothing, waterproof gear and sunscreen. The importance of keeping clothing and gear dry cannot be overstated. When choosing a daypack, a small to medium backpack made of lightweight, moisture-resistant material that comes with a removable waterproof shell will be ideal. It's also helpful if the backpack has convenient access to a water bottle compartment or can accommodate a water bladder. Plenty of pockets, zipper compartments and hooks are also handy. What to pack: A sturdy but lightweight water-repellant duffel bag with a capacity of about 35 pounds is ideal for the trek to the top of Mt. Kilimanjaro. The bag needs to have room for plenty of layers of breathable, moisture-wicking clothing and layers of fleece clothing, as well as a waterproof layer. To save space, it's a good idea to pack clothing that does double duty, such as pants that easily convert into shorts. Aside from clothing, the climb will also require accessories like sunglasses, hats and gloves, plus equipment like trekking poles and a headlamp, as well as toiletries like sunscreen, insect repellent and a first-aid kit. Support the Challenged Athletes Foundation: Overstock.com and the C.H.E.K Institute are co-sponsoring Erica and Tara's climb to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro in order to raise awareness for athletes with physical challenges who wish to participate and compete in sports. Portions of the proceeds will benefit the Challenged Athletes Foundation (CAF). CAF raises funds to give physically challenged athletes the opportunity to stay active and competitive in the sports they love. To show your support for physically challenged athletes like Erica and Tara, donate now to the Challenged Athletes Foundation for the Fit 4 Kili Climb.

Best Pots and Pans
Choosing the perfect cookware is a matter of personal preference and cooking style, but understanding the differences can help every cook. Professional chefs agree that every household needs an 8- to 10-inch skillet, a 5- to 7-quart sauce pan and a stock pot. Choose pans that fit your needs, and you will love cooking with them.
How to Organize a Shoulder Bag
Carrying around a shoulder tote bag can pose a few problems. You may need a large shoulder bag to hold all the items you take with you when you're out and about. But if you just toss them all into the over-the-shoulder bag, you may not be able to find an item when you need it. Dumping everything into one compartment can also make your shoulder tote bag heavy and hard to carry. So take a few minutes to organize your shoulder bag. Storing every item in its own easy-to-access spot makes it a lot easier to find things quickly. A large shoulder bag with pockets and zipper compartments is ideal.

How to Choose a Laptop Bag

Perfect for travel, shopping trips or work, money clips allow you to carry the cash you need, along with a credit card or two, in a compact holder that won't take up unnecessary space in your bag or your pocket. Money clip holders are convenient for every occasion. Read on for tips on choosing a money clip that fits your style.

Now that summer has finally rolled in, maybe it's time to toss your gas guzzler and take to the streets on your bike. Many people find biking to work or school an invigorating way to stay in shape, enjoy their morning and save on gas.

Instead of making do with whatever bulky bag you have lying around, shop online through the huge selection of designer laptop cases to find a computer bag that is both practical and stylish.

How to Buy Sheets to Fit a Pillow-Top Mattress

The height of the padding varies, but generally, manufacturers make pillow-top mattresses in depths varying from 7 to 22 inches. Specially made deep-pocket sheets for pillow-top mattresses are available; however, it is important to know the depth of your mattress before purchasing sheets. Here's how to buy the best sheets to fit your pillow-top mattress.

The 40 best albums from Boston of all time (slide show)
"Toys in the Attic," Aerosmith (1975): Proving that they weren't a poor man's Rolling Stones or a poor man's Zeppelin, but a group with their own identity, "Toys in the Attic" showcases the guys in Aerosmith at their boozy, sleazy best. They would follow up with an equally strong album, "Rocks," before drugs began to take their toll on the band's output (until their comeback more than 10 years later). It's hard to argue with the power of the two hits on this album, "Sweet Emotion" and "Walk This Way," let alone all the great rockers that fill the spaces in between them. Top Tracks: "Sweet Emotion," "You See Me Crying," "Walk This Way"

It's not every day when the city intentionally shuts down part of Comm. Ave. to traffic. But then it isn't every day when we get an album of all new material out of Aerosmith.
That bizarre street bazaar celebrating "Music From Another Dimension!" in November got me thinking. What are the best albums of all time to come out of Boston's music scene? I scribbled a few notes, and asked colleagues at the Boston Business Journal for nominations. A list of 10 quickly became 20. Then 30. Finally, I had to draw the line at Boston's Top 40.
Click here to read about all 40 albums in order, by year, in a slide show.
Here's the criteria I used to narrow down the candidates: I immediately ruled out any album by musicians who were no longer attached to the local music scene when they recorded the album. (That meant no Donna Summer, Billy Squier or Rob Zombie, even though they are Massachusetts natives.) I did allow for Massachusetts artists outside the immediate Boston/Cambridge scene (such as Northampton), but not acts from other New England states. I ruled out albums that were largely or entirely instrumental in nature (That meant leaving off Bela Fleck's excellent "Crossing the Tracks" and pretty much anything from the Boston Pops.) I limited each artist to only one album, with two exceptions. Aerosmith deserved two albums on the list, if just because those guys have practically been playing together for as long as I've been alive. (and, no, "Music From Another Dimension!" isn't one of them.) And the Pixies earned two places as well: The debate over whether "Surfer Rosa" or "Doolittle" is the better album threatened to grind the office's productivity to a halt one morning.
Because the list focuses on albums, some genres (like hardcore and pop) are underrepresented (Sorry, NKOTB fans.) That said, there's still a remarkable diversity among these albums. Good luck trying to pin down the Boston Sound. Is it garage rock or folk? Punk or blues? Heavy metal or ska? Americana or techno? Of course, it's been all of those, at one time or another. These albums came out without a city-sanctioned party on the streets of Brighton. But they are all worth celebrating, even if we don't shut down part of the B Line again to do it.
(Special thanks to AllMusic.com for helping me check my facts and refresh some hazy memories, and to Brett Milano's excellent book "The Sound of Our Town" for inspiration.)

Oceaneering International, Inc. (NYSE:OII) has announced that it has entered into a five-year charter for use of the Cade Candies, a multi-service subsea support vessel owned by Otto Candies LLC. The charter is expected to commence during the second quarter of 2013.
This state-of-the-art, U.S. flagged vessel was built in 2010. It has an overall length of approximately 309 feet (94 meters), a Class 2 dynamic positioning system, accommodations for 69 personnel, a helideck, a 150-ton active heave compensated crane, and a working moonpool.
Oceaneering's current rolling, short-term charter contract on the Cade Candies, in place since November 2011, will continue through early 2013. At that time, the vessel will enter a shipyard to undergo modifications to enhance its project capabilities. While in the shipyard, Oceaneering's two, high-specification, work class ROVs onboard the vessel will be repositioned and fully integrated into the vessel for more effective operations. The vessel will also be equipped with a satellite communications system capable of transmitting streaming video for real-time work observation by shore personnel.
To be renamed the Ocean Alliance, the vessel will be used to augment Oceaneering's ability to provide subsea intervention services in the ultra-deep waters of the Gulf of Mexico (GOM). These services are required to perform inspection, maintenance, and repair (IMR) projects and hardware installations. IMR projects are expected to include chemical well stimulation and hydrate remediation. Hardware installations are expected to include umbilicals, subsea trees, flowline jumpers, flying leads, and manifolds.
M. Kevin McEvoy, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "We are very pleased to have added, on a long-term basis, this modern, high-end, Jones Act-compliant vessel to our suite of assets to enhance our capabilities to serve our customers in the deepwater GOM. This charter demonstrates our belief the GOM deepwater subsea intervention market has a promising and sustainable future."

Practical Problems with Hell and Heaven
However, I have always wondered about practical problems with hell and heaven.
Paul Johnson has put them across really well.
"…Death is inextricably linked to time, because if time continues after death, and the disembodied spirit lives in time, then insoluble problems arise. Heaven (or Hell for that matter) becomes a bedlam, in which husbands are confronted with wives married at different times, each with claims, and many with multiple husbands too, hovering moodily in the background. And the children! At what stage in their lives are they fixed, as it was, for all eternity? And what is eternity if it is time-governed? How could anyone conceivably bear it, however blissful? On the other hand, if when we die time loses its grip and we step into an existence where time and change, permanence and impermanence, past, present and future all cease to have any meaning, and we exist in an infinite instant without location or material dimension of any kind, leaving all to the imagination, then there is comfort in the prospect of leaving this world."

Inside a vibrantly lit ballroom, the names of two newlyweds glow in big, cursive letters on the dance floor. The venue, an expansive space with arched ceilings and ornate chandeliers, is no doubt a popular spot for wedding ceremonies, but Majestic Events' team has gone above and beyond to make the space unique to the bride and groom.
This quest to personalize each event is what fuels the decisions of Majestic Events' photographers, videographers, DJs, emcees, and lighting technicians. Their services include live music, photography, and lighting design and were awarded WeddingWire?s Bride?s Choice award in 2011, 2012, and 2013.
Elegant Engagements can furnish weddings and other events with DJ services, photo-booth rentals, and custom backdrops to capture the night's timeless memories. Professional DJ and emcee services set the soundtrack to the night, energizing guests and encouraging dancing. Photo booths are manned by an onsite attendant to ensure smooth operation, and are equipped with fun props for guests to wear. Step and repeat backdrops bring the red carpet to any occasion, and custom backdrops commemorate a wedding couple or a corporate eating-contest champion. Their newest offering, #SocialBooth, allows anyone to use their cellphones as a virtual photo booth and simultaneously share pictures on social media and print them immediately at an on-site kiosk.
People planning weddings often have to choose between elaborately staged poses and the dynamic, candid shots that provide a realistic account of the happy day. The founders of Abacus Wedding Studios ignore that dichotomy, believing there to be a place for both photography styles at important events. Mixing traditional and photojournalistic styles, their photo snappers work with brides, grooms, and their families to make sure everyone gets the shots they dream of. Together, they create a custom wedding-day preparation worksheet that lays out shooting plans with plenty of time for large-scale portraits, intimate snaps, and sequential shots of the first cake slice being smashed in the father of the bride's face.
In order to capture the merriest moments from weddings, graduations, and birthdays in top quality, Photo Booth Elegance outfitted its MojoBooth with the latest in ultra-high resolution digital technology. The 5'x'5' booth–roomy enough to fit up to 10 adults–features professional-grade cameras, as well as a lab-quality photo printer that generates color and black and white prints in seconds. While party guests are inside the booth striking poses and searching for the lever to initiate time travel, a Photo Booth Elegance host remains nearby to ensure smooth operation throughout the event.
The pearly white of a toddler's first tooth. The glow of a young woman's cheeks on her sixteenth birthday. These are the things that Classic Imaging Photography's experts seek to capture with a deft click of the shutter. The professional photographers position subjects during in-studio shoots or go on-location to snap images of newly engaged couples in the park where they met or defeated a rival family of swans. The shutterbugs also photograph or capture video of cake-cuttings and dances at landmark events, attempting to stay quietly in the background all the while. To generate souvenirs and bolster revelry, the crew also brings photo booths to parties.
What services does your business offer and what makes your business stand out from the competition? Pulse Entertainment is unique because we are a true one-stop shop for everything you could need for your event. You name it, we do it, no matter what the scale (big or small). We can accommodate any client to make their dreams come true and have done so for the better part of 20 years!
What was the inspiration to start or run this business? Pulse North Jersey takes the same full-scale entertainment experience of Pulse Philadelphia but expands those ideas to include the style, vibe, and culture of the New York/North Jersey clientele, from chic set-ups to stylish entertainers.
What do you love most about your job? The smiles I see on the faces of my clients when I know that I have been a part of something so special to them that they will never forget. It's not [in] every profession that you get the chance to make a memory for somebody that will last a lifetime. I get the honor to do so, and do so with pride!
What is the best reaction you've ever gotten from a customer? Earlier this year we worked a wedding for a bride that was severely ill. She was very pleased with our work and wrote (to summarize), "You guys just made the party of a lifetime happen, which is not long for me, so thank you for allowing me to forget my problems for one night and smile forever!"

Great day out, you can easily spend the whole day here. Really interesting, loads to see. I would strongly recommend a visit here to anyone, it is suitable for couples, families, friends etc. A real highlight is the terrace of houses showing Dutch homes through various eras. The tram shed is really interesting as well. The staff are all really friendly and helpful. They brew their own beers and they are delicious, and i have tasted a lot of beers, we bought several bottles to take home.
