Good product, horrible packing.
Bryce from Danville, IN– Verified Buyer
I ordered this table base with the 30 inch X base. The base ships in a separate box from the column. The first shipment showed up with the base sticking out of the oversized box due to no packing material what so ever. The column showed up hanging out of the box and really bent up, again due to no packing material except for a piece of plastic over the column. The second shipment showed up the exact same way, no packing material and damaged. The third shipment, and I was assured that Wayfair contacted the manufacturer and told them to actually use packing material this time, showed up again with no packing material, hanging out of the boxes and damaged. I gave up and just got a refund. The product looks like it is well made and a good value and Wayfair was great just the packaging was horrible.
they're great

History's hand-written love letters still meaningful
by Lynn Lofton
Published: February 3,2012
Tags: Calpurnia, Carrie Bradshaw, Charles Darwin, Flaubert, Laura Weeks, Lorelei Books, Love Letters of Great Men, Mississippi, Mississippi Business Journal, Oscar Wilde, Robert Browning, Roman Pliny, Sex and the City, St. Martin's Press, Ursula Doyle, VICKSBURG
Are hand written expressions of love a thing of the past? Even in this age of e-mails, tweets and texted "I luv u's" surely there is still a place for a real note from the heart. A real love letter will touch the recipient in a way an electronic message never could. It will also be saved and re-read many times — something not likely to happen with electronic forms of love letters. This book reminds us that nothing can compare to the simple joy of sitting down to read a letter from the one you love.
There have been volumes of love letters of great men published, but this one is the collection of letters read by Carrie Bradshaw in the movie "Sex and the City." Laura Weeks, owner of Vicksburg's Lorelei Books, says readers rushed out to buy the book after the movie only to find this particular book didn't exist. "St. Martin's Press published it after book sellers reported the public demand for it," she said. "Frankly, I would dump a man who text messaged me with deeply personal sentiments instead of putting pen to paper."
She adds that although the book is not a recent release, it is more timely now than ever due to the decline in written correspondence.
The book contains some of history's most romantic letters from the private papers of Beethoven, Mark Twain, Mozart and Lord Byron. For some of these great men love is a "delicious poison" (William Congreve); for others "a nice soft wife on a sofa with a good fire, books and music" (Charles Darwin). French writer Flaubert wrote that "love can penetrate the depths of one's heart like a cooling rain."
Every shade of love is in this timeless collection of letters from the exquisite eloquence of Oscar Wilde and the simple devotion of Robert Browning to the wonderfully modern misery of the Roman Pliny the Younger losing himself in work to forget how much he misses his beloved wife, Calpurnia. These letters show that men haven't changed all that much over the past 2,000 years.

Dianne Feinstein looking after herself
Re Tom Meyer cartoon (Opinion, April 24): Thank you for printing Tom Meyer's cartoon depicting the relationship between Dianne Feinstein and Big Agriculture, and the implicit suggestion of the effects of her personal interests on the health of the Delta and nearly everything else in the California environment.
I hope this is the beginning of a serious look at the self-serving entanglement of the interests of Feinstein and her billionaire husband Richard Blum in the California economy. Feinstein's assets may be in a blind trust, but this is still a community property state, and the profits she accrues via her own and her husband's political and financial dealing will not always be in that trust.
And speaking of trust, this is one legislator we can always count on to help out her friends. Unfortunately, most of her constituents are not on her guest list.
-- Kathryn A. Klar, Richmond

"Could not put it down"
I never knew where Scott Westerfeld was going to take this action-packed story. As an adult reading a YA title, I have to say that I was constantly irritated by our heroine, who starts out self-absorbed, self-pitying, insecure. You can count on her to always make the worst move. At the end of the whole series, in my opinion, she has not matured a whit. So why five stars? Because the author is so darned good; lovely similes page-turning plotting, and intelligent handling of complexity. He has created a very real world that we want to know more about. Our narrator also does a lovely job. Oh, one quirk I am not sure Westerfeld noticed when he was doing his plotting: Our heroine, Tally when in trouble, which is all the time, has an amusingly predictable response... and that is: "Jump!"
"Drop Off In Quality"
While still enjoyable, Mr. Wood's 4th foray into the adventures of Victor the Assassin seem to be a bit rushed. There is less plot complexilty and more shallow "chase scene" writing. Victor spends less time using his brain and more time dodging many many bullets. His lady friend is a big flaw: Is she a mentally ill shrew? Is she a moody 14-year-old? Is she wise in the ways of the world? Take your pick from page to page. We are at a loss to figure out Victor's protective feeling toward her.
Another problem is that Victor "Keeps his promises". Well, when it suits the plot; otherwise he lies like a rug, as he has in past and better installments of this saga.
I did think the way he tied together the first part of the book and the very last paragraph was just delicious. I will certainly read the next installment, in hopes that this lazy business was an abberation.
"A Classic Thriller/Police Procedural."
Frederick Forsyth is a masterful writer. This is as much a police procedural as a thriller. It never bores or flags in its pace. To listen to this is to understand why it was the perfect subject for a movie (twice) with its straightforward story. The only mystery is how he hid the rifle and the only twist is one of identity and yet the plot engrosses totally.
"A Load of Codswallop"
And hand-wringing, bosom-beating romance with an ending predictable withing the first few minutes of listening. The narrator was fine but could have toned down the angst with a flatter reading of our heroine's endless tormented monologues. I care about the environment, but Howey's approach has the pessimistic and defeatist tone of 1950's British science fiction.
I guessed the ending within the first half-hour of listening and even particular upcoming lines of dialog were utterly predictable.
I found that even the pleasant romance could not save a very silly story.
"This Story has Aged Well"
Sometimes the movie (3 Days of the Condor) is almost as good as the book. In this case, and In some ways, the movie is better: more complex, grittier. Still, this is an excellent first novel by James Grady (Taking of Pelham 1-2-3 is another best seller) that is fast, taut and well written.
"Lee Child Move Over"
This is the first of 4 books. This one is good, and by book four, I am giving 5 stars.
Juvenile dialog, pretty good writing, and MASTERFUL action scenes. Unlike Ben Coes or Mark Greany, Tom Wood really knows how to write a believable and nail-biting action scene that does not take you out of the moment with cartoonish stupidity or technical inaccuracy.
Victor is a great creation, and pretty consistent in his actions and most but not all of what he says.
The writing is pretty good, with the occasional dangling participle but very smooth syntax. The silly dialog improves bit by bit in the next 3 books (yes, there are more!) and Victor becomes more sympathetic while the CIA becomes less evil. I would remind Rob Shapiro, the narrator, that the word is "prostrate", not "Prostate"-- an error he repeats in the next book in the series. Shapiro is good, but I wish he would tone down the querulous whining and let the dialog carry some of the load.
Often, when an author paints his beleaguered hero into a "how will he ever get out of this?" corner, the escape is disappointingly unbelievable. But no Deus Ex Machina here, Tom Wood comes up with some very clever solutions, stratagems, and twists.
Tom Wood is intelligent. I like that in an author. Some of what gets published today is really lowest common denominator stuff, but here we have logic and believability.
If you like this first book about Victor, you are in for a treat, as they keep getting better, and Wood gets better at keeping you guessing.
"The Story Deepens"
Obviously more coming
Michael Z. Williamson "Freehold" series for Buetner's "Orphan" series for combat and social awareness.
My Gosh! Stop with the stereotypical raspy voice for almost all military.
Can't stay awake that long, or I would.
Read "Terms of Enlistment" first, if you can, although this novel does well enough as a stand-alone. Marko Kloos has revealed himself as quite the subversive, and I approve! He seems to think that sometimes, a society will endure a time when it is not the cream that rises to the top, but the ... well, you know.
In the first book of this series (may there be many more!) Grayson is a callow youth; not stupid, mind you, just living in a black and white world. He is optimistic in a world that is falling apart. In "Lines" he has begun to realize that he is those at the top are behaving with perverse stupidity, and he slowly comes to know that he has to do something about it or lose his self respect.
A weakness of the book is Kloos aliens: what makes them tick. Why are they so powerful and yet so apparently stupid. Humans are cockroaches to them, such is their technological superiority. They wipe us out like we would fumigate termites, and as easily. But I don't know of any termites that can band together to kill humans, or burn down a house rather than let you move in. The aliens inscrutability is taken too far. Wouldn't they make more effort to stop us from fighting back if they are so powerful? Maybe Kloos will explain this in the next book.
And there better be a next book. Our hero is likable and the writing is smooth and professional.
But please, again, narrator Luke Daniels, stop with the constricted throat rasping voice for all ground troops except our hero and his girlfriend. Even Sergeant Brianna sounds like a weight lifter. And apparently all the pilots speak in a rapid monotone or with a Tennessee twang. Oh, another choice for soldiers is that some sound like Squiggy from Lavern and Shirley. There are about 5 exaggerated voices that are used over and over again. Gets really annoying.
Having been so mean to our Narrator, let me say that his performance choices are very important, and can change the quality of the book. Luke Daniels is good! Just never let him do military voices again unless he broadens his repertoire.
"Cardboard Apocalypse"
The narrator has about 3 voices and 2 accents. He does not serve the material well. The characters are not developed. The moral qualms of the soldiers are unrealistic in the situation as described. Too many characters who are not anchored by time and place and personality. Poor writing. I can't give it one star because the spelling was fine.
"I still like Child"
I love Lee Child's writing, and his observations and asides still enchant. I almost never give a pass to unrealistic situations but somehow when Reacher uncovers byzantine conspiracies and ends up out of touch and out of reach in a Corner of Nowhere despite this being an extremely connected society... I go along. I don't know why I cut Child so much slack. Perhaps it is because I love the "Stranger comes to Town" trope.
I just the author would get back to more grounded situations. The villains were faceless. We never get to know them. That can work, but here it just makes the conflict oddly bloodless despite all the blood.
Oddly David Baldacci's "Zero Day" has been called a Jack Reacher homage, and I find "A Wanted Man" to be weirdly evocative of "Zero Day", and I know that is either a strange coincidence... or a conspriacy!
One final note on action and violence: way way to little. Reacher never even punches someone in the stomach till near the end of the book. I appreciate that he is a detective unraveling a mystery, but he is a very large, very strong detective who knows how to fight dirty. The best fight is the one you walk away from--- unless you're a thriller writer.
"Half as good as "Beat the Reaper""
Half as Good as "Beat the Reaper" which still places it very high on my list. Does not have the intensity or pace of BTR, but is still well-written. I am not rating based on Bazell's Politics. I am not rating his views on Global warming. I am rating the writing and the story. If I can stomach Steven Hunter for the sake of his great story-telling ability, then I suggest "Wild Thing" is just as tasty a dish even if you don't like the color of the napkin. Actually, I think he treated Palin with mild whimsy, compared to Captain Bonobo (Obama) in Hunter's "Soft Target".
I do wish we had stayed on the cruise ship for the whole book. Imagine the fun he could have had. After BTR, you never want to go near a hospital again. Just think of what Josh could have done with our desire to take a nice cruise.
The Narration was great. If it bothers you, beware the profanity
"revenge with a whoopie cushion."
If you like your humorous revenge psychopathic, this is the story for you. Before there was Dexter, there was Serge, and he isn't fooling anybody. He's your (vastly hyper and annoying) friend for life... unless you're a jerk... then you're dead! In some elaborate and hilarious way. I love the way Dorsey weaves together disparate strands into his typical explosive climaxes. He is a careful plotter and a very clever writer. Love it.

Bruins players remaining in Boston are starting to run low on optimism, understandably, but theyre mustering up whatever theyve got left for todays big NHL powwow in New York City.
So far its not a complete and utter disaster, and thatregisters as good news in the bad news factory known as the NHL lockout.
There arent exactly high hopes heading into Monday nights meeting between the NHL and NHLPA after things fell apart little more than a week ago, but at least theyre still talking to each other.

DGA, Networks Reach Tentative Agreement in News, Sports and Operations
The Directors Guild of America announced Wednesday that the DGA's Network Negotiations Committee has reached a tentative new three-year agreement with ABC, CBS and NBC covering DGA members who work in news, sports and operations.
The negotiations, which began Sept. 24 in New York and concluded Oct. 7, address the DGA's Network Staff and Freelance Agreements, which cover staff and freelance directors, associate directors, stage managers and program-production assistants employed in news, sports and operations at the companies' television networks and at a number of their locally owned and operated television stations.
The Network Agreements are separate from the guild's Basic Agreement with the studios and are negotiated every three years. The DGA's Basic Agreement expires next year. Based on the past, it's likely that the DGA will negotiate and reach a deal on that agreement in the next several months.
The tentative Network Agreement deal will be presented to the DGA's national board at the regularly scheduled board meeting Oct. 19 and if approved, the contract will then be sent to the membership for ratification. The new contract incorporates annual wage increases and other negotiated benefits for directors and their teams. Further details will be released after the tentative agreement has been presented to the national board.
Negotiations were headed by John LiBretto, chair of the DGA's Network Negotiations Committee; vice chairs Brett Holey and Scott Berger; and Russell Hollander, the DGA's associate national executive director/Eastern executive director.
The guild's current contract with the networks expires June 30, 2014. If approved by the national board and ratified by the members, the new contract will be effective July 1, 2014, through June 30, 2017.

Woodside Priory School was founded before the town of Portola Valley was founded, so it took the name Woodside.

What is the purpose of manual web routing? Why doesn't everyone just automatically map between URLs and module/method/function names?
I would argue that you can start with fully automatic mapping, and then you can just use Apache mod_rewrite or mod_redirect or whatever if you want to refactor in a way that would change URLs, without breaking existing URLs.

Our special coverage of the closest race for years
Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
24 Jul 2011 13:48 GMT | Politics, Asia Pacific, North Korea
North Koreans went to the polls for the first time in four years to take part in what analysts say is a rubber-stamp election for members of the local assemblies.
The North's official Korean Central News Agency said on Sunday that local assembly elections began across the country as songs reverberated and flags fluttered over polling stations crowded with voters.
The local assemblies meet around once or twice a year to approve budgets and regional leaders appointed by the party.
The local elections are widely seen as a step to help strengthen the leader Kim Jong-il's hereditary succession by securing the power base for his third son Kim Jong-un.
'Symbolic support'Little is known about Kim Jong-un. He is said to be in his late twenties and was unveiled as a four-star general last September, despite having no previous military experience.
His first public appearance was in October last year when he attended the ruling Workers' Party's 65th anniversary celebration.
This was seen as fully confirming his position as the next leader of the Workers' Party, with unprecedented international press access granted to the event.
Joseph Cheng, a political scientist at City University in Hong Kong, said the local election in North Korea was a measure for local authorities "to monitor grassroots activities" and an exercise to pave the way for the leadership succession process.
"This gives an opportunity for the local officials to monitor grassroots activities as well as support for the regime," said Cheng.
Cheng said the local election could be regarded as a step preceding elections of the Supreme People's Assembly which, in turn, will select the country's leader.
"It's speculated that this election exercise may facilitate symbolic support for the leadership succession process," Cheng said.

More Info... by email
Cross dominance is a physical motor skill phenomenon in which a person prefers to use one side of the body for certain actions and the opposite side for other actions. A dominant side for all actions does not exist in individuals who are cross dominant. They simply prefer to use the ear, eye, hand or foot opposite of their dominant side for certain activities. Problems such as clumsiness, perception trouble and balancing challenges can arise from cross dominance, but physical exercises geared toward making individuals comfortable using both sides of the body might help improve those problems.
Cross dominance can also be referred to as mixed dominance, mixed-handedness or hand-confusion. A common example of cross dominance is a person who uses one hand to write and the other to play sports. It's this type of usage of the body that makes a person dominant on opposite sides of the body, depending on the activity.
Although ambidexterity is considered to be a variant of cross dominance, it does not mean the same thing. Ambidextrous people can use both hands easily, but cross dominant people prefer to use one hand over the other for particular tasks. It is this distinction that makes for mixed-handedness.
People who are cross dominant are not regulated to just favoring sides in their hands. Cross dominant individuals can also prefer to use their opposite eyes, feet and ears for certain things. For example, a right-handed person can prefer to kick with his or her left foot.
Problems can be experienced when a cross dominant person feels that he or she is stronger on the non-dominant side of his or her body. This can lead to perception challenges, clumsiness and maybe even problems balancing. Aiming abilities can also suffer.
Despite the potentiality for problems caused by cross dominance, it is a relatively normal phenomenon. Some sources say that cross dominance can occur in about one-fifth of the population. To be sure, if individuals find their cross dominance to be frustrating, they can train themselves to become comfortable with the use of their non-dominant side by doing special exercises.
These types of exercises might do more than just make some people comfortable using both sides of their body. Some research has suggested that people with ear-hand cross dominance can have trouble with math and even have problems with their long-term memory. Learning how to use both sides of the body might improve performance in these areas, which can be a welcome benefit of trying to balance out cross dominance.
Post 14
I didn't knew this was actually a physical motor skill phenomenon, I use mostly the right hand for writing, holding equipment like hammers and spanners, but I use the left hand mostly for throwing like in baseball for example.
I also seem to have a stronger left foot than the right one when shooting in football as well.
As for problems, I seem to be a bit clumsy every now and then but I don't seem to have bad perception, balance or aim (in fact quite the other way around), and Maths was always one of my favorite subjects.
Post 13
I did not know this was a common phenomenon. I use my right hand for writing, holding a screwdriver, ironing, hitting, etc. I use my left hand for basketball, throwing a baseball, arrow and other. In some activities I am totally mixed. I hold the fork with my right hand, but if I eat with a fork and a knife, I have to hold the fork in my left hand. I play soccer with my right leg. I was never good at maths and have memory problems. I could otherwise be considered an intelligent person.
Post 12
I'm cross dominant too. I write, eat, brush my teeth my left, and play sport and use scissors with my right. The annoying thing is when people keep asking me to try play a sport like Badminton with my left hand, which I can't do.
Post 11
I thought I was one of only a few, relatively, who are like this. I write, play golf, darts, pool, snooker left handed (just to name a few) but I kick a ball with my right foot. Although, I've never noticed it to affect the way I do things, just that it's there.
Post 10
I am cross dominant too, but I am not clumsy nor do I have problems with math. As a matter of fact (I am a bit crazy, I guess), I took calculus as an elective rather than marketing that I found to be extremely boring. I eat, write, play tennis and bowl right handed. I kick a ball, bat, throw, and clean left handed.
Post 9
I am cross dominant. I write with my right hand and play soccer with my left foot. I am clumsy and I hate math!
Post 8
Are people cross dominant if they write with their right hand but they throw a football or shoot a basketball with their left? Does this make them left handed also? If someone asks me if I am right-handed or left-handed, can I say both?
Post 7
Always knew I was, just didn't know what to call it. I throw a ball right-handed, I write right-handed. But anything to do with using two hands, such as swinging a baseball, golf, pool (billiards), and I do it naturally left handed. That's just what feels right to me and always has. I recently took an online left brain / right brain test and I came up equal.
Post 5
I always knew I was cross dominant, but only now found out that it is relatively common; I didn't even know there was a name for it.
I am super-clumsy, cannot play golf or mini golf (so what!) and cannot find things right in front of me. In spite of my motor skills being somewhat awkward, I do make a good living as an draughtsman. All in all a bit odd, but it seems to work.
Glad there are others out there (hi), never knew!
Post 4
I'm cross dominant and I actually find it very useful, although I am pretty clumsy, and I find it hard to find something that someone tells me is directly in front of me.
Post 3
I'm cross dominant and I find it helpful with certain activities.
Post 2
I am cross dominant and I find it very useful. One time I was working on some needlepoint (right handed) and I also had some unusable yarn that had to be cut up to use a stuffing for a pillow (cut left handed). I would do needlepoint for a while and then cut for a while. My mother had the same projects but had to take a break because she is 100 percent right handed and got tired. I also have found that I am an excellent typist because of this ability.
Post 1
This is all very good and interesting, but I want to know if there is a reason behind the many famous people of the arts and science, such as Beethoven, Einstein and Leonardo di Vinci all having cross-dominance. Perhaps it helps in connecting the two sides of the brain?
One of our editors will review your suggestion and make changes if warranted. Note that depending on the number of suggestions we receive, this can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days. Thank you for helping to improve wiseGEEK!

Augmented reality app promotes return of the so-called Jim shoe, introduced 20 years ago.
To promote the return of the so-called Jim shoe it launched 20 years ago, Airwalk used an augmented reality app from startup GoldRun to launch invisible pop-up stores in New York and LA on November 6.
The invisible stores were a way to reward loyal customers, but, as the company notes, they were also fun and, perhaps most importantly, exclusive -- all of which align with the Airwalk brand and the limited edition shoes available through the promotion.
To access the invisible stores, customers downloaded GoldRun's app, which is available for iPhone 3G or higher, and went to Venice Beach in Los Angeles and Washington Square Park in New York. There, they captured virtual shoes that were GPS-linked to both locations.
"It (was) basically a store that doesn't exist. It only (existed) on your phone through augmented reality," says Kerry Keenan, executive director for creative content at Young & Rubicam, which worked with Airwalk on the campaign.
Users who located the virtual shoes on their phones were then taken to the Airwalk e-commerce site and given a pass code link to complete purchase of either the ladies' shoe in red plastic or the men's tennis shoe, which, as the name implies, looks like a tennis ball.
Airwalk was founded in 1986 in Southern California, which is why the company chose Venice, says Eric Dreyer, vice president of brand management for collective licensing international.
"Over time, however, the brand has evolved into this broader, youth brand with really great ties to streetwear, music and design. That aspect of the brand is what led us to Washington Square Park," he adds.
According to Airwalk, the original Jim was launched in the early 1990s as "an ode to the most loved/hated school activities of all time, gym class."
Keenan explains, "It's an anti-gym shoe worn by students who skip gym and instead go to skate parks."
A total of 300 pairs of shoes were produced for the promotion. The Airwalk site says the shoes, which run from $80 to $90, are available for delivery November 15. It was not immediately clear how many people participated in the promotion, but the limited edition shoes were still available for purchase on the site as of Wednesday.
Keenan also said Airwalk's e-commerce site had the most traffic it had ever had, but she did not have specific figures or know how long the site had been running.
Airwalk also didn't have a huge budget to promote the limited edition launch, Keenan says. The invisible store via augmented reality app was therefore a good way for Airwalk to target men and women 18 to 26.
Keenan says the campaign was also "sort of a hit" with men and women in their early 30s "because they're the ones who remember (the shoes) from the first launch."
It was also attractive to tech people who wanted to see how this worked, she added.
Airwalk advertised the promotion on sneaker, tech and fashion sites like Sneaker Freak and PSFK, Keenan says.
Airwalk may consider additional locations, depending on the success of this venture, Dreyer says.
For its part, GoldRun has also powered a user-controlled, virtual catwalk for clothing retailer H&M and says it will be launching additional promotions with nycgo.com, Esquire magazine and Gwen Stefani's Harajuku Lovers fragrance line.
