Product Description
Amazon.com Review
Uniquely designed with similarities to an espresso machine, this coffee maker features a 1450-watt boiler that brews a 4-ounce cup of coffee in just thirty seconds, or two 4-ounce cups or one 8-ounce mug in 60 seconds. Because the machine uses pre-measured coffee pods, the system is hassle-free, easy to clean, and guarantees a flavorful, fresh brew each time.
Measuring 13-1/2 by 12 by 8-1/2 inches, the coffee maker is shaped like a curved cylinder with a round base. Two pod holders are included: a shallow holder that holds one coffee pod for one cup, and a deeper filter that holds two pods for two cups (or one 8-ounce mug). After filling the removable reservoir with fresh water to the ‘max’ line, the pods are inserted and the lid locked into place. A simple push of the on/off button and either of the one or two cup buttons starts the brewing process. Up to five 4-ounce cups can be brewed on one reservoir of water. Cups are not included, but almost any 4-ounce cup or 8-ounce mug will do the trick. All the removable parts–the pod holders, reservoir, coffee spout, plastic drip tray, and metal cup tray–are dishwasher-safe. A variety of coffee pods are available separately. This coffee machine is unusable at altitudes over 6800 feet. The Senseo coffee maker is covered by a two-year warranty against defects and measures 13-1/2 by 12 by 8-1/2 inches. –Ann Bieri

Call it The Full Monty on ice. With tongue firmly in cheek, director-writer-star Paul Gross applies the old underdog sports-team formula to that great Northern obsession: curling. (You thought hockey was the national obsession? So did Canada.) You know the score: estranged teammates reunite to fulfill a dead man’s last request, win glory for their fictional hometown, and earn back their hibernating self-respect. Square-jawed Gross recalls his Due South days as the amiable team captain, a boy scout with an impish streak. Leslie Nielsen turns down the usual goofball shtick to play Gross’s crotchety, self-medicating father. There are enough issues here to fuel a dozen movies and none of them packs the punch of a pint of Molson’s beer, which is just the right tone for this off-center sports spoof, a story of little victories, big stones, and beavers on the move. –Sean Axmaker

The Celtic flask is a quality, polished pewter 6oz flask with a brass insert in a Celtic knot design. The Celtic flask is produced to a very high standard by Alchemy of England. Celtic flask is 3 1/4″ wide, 5 1/3″ tall, and 7/8″ thick, made of fine English pewter.
The “Celtic knot” remains a major feature of Celtic art. The Celtic knot has no beginning and no end, but turns in upon itself forever. Unlike other people of that period, who concentrated on figures of people and animals, the Celts developed designs that focused on abstract shapes and symbols.

Leather Viking Helm is modeled after a piece excavated from 10th century ruins in Norway. The “spectacle” type face guard is historically more accurate than the wings or horns typically depicted as the “Viking” look. They’re lighter and more comfortable than steel, while still providing an authentic look and modest protection.
The Leather Viking Helm is made of very thick harness grade leather. The Viking Helm includes an adjustable liner. Leather helms are perfect for reenactors, LARP and even faire goers.
The name Viking is a loan form the native Scandinavian term for the Norse seafaring warriors who raided the coasts of Scandinavia, the British Isles and other parts of Europe from the late 8th century to the 11th century, the period of European history referred to as the Viking Age. The word was introduced to the English language with romantic suggestions in the 18th century. The earliest date given for a Viking invasion is 787 when a group of men from Norway sailed to Portland, in Dorset. They were mistaken as merchants by a royal official and they murdered him, when he tried to get them to accompany him to the king’s manor to pay a trading tax on their goods.

The mysterious sorcerer… vividly alive in this exquisitely detailed and colorful sculpture. Myth, legend, magic and lore brilliantly created for all to adore! Cast in resin and hand detailed in rich vibrant colors, this work of art is a true masterpiece and “Simply Magic!”
The wizard is 8 ½ in tall.
A wizard (from ‘wise’) is a practitioner of magic, especially in folklore, fantasy fiction and fantasy role-playing games. In popular use in 16th century England, it was used to denote a helpful male folk magician, a cunning man as they were usually called, and the male equivalent of a witch. The traditional role of the wizard is portrayed as prophet, visionary and master of nature’s elements. The wizard is the genius who works with nature to transform himself and others. Wizards are also seen as keepers of secret knowledge and seekers of arcane knowledge and truth, who share that knowledge with their responsible apprentices in order to pass on that precious knowledge they have acquired. They are feared for their power that comes from that knowledge, and revered for their ability with things that others cannot readily understand. They keep alive their ‘knowledge trust’ for future generations to benefit the community they serve…and they are truly guardians of human ingenuity, and protectors of practical wisdom.

The Royal Muscled Cuirass is made of steel with a black finish and contains the symbols of a lion head in brass along with two sea serpents on either side as emblems of royalty and power. A black leather sectioned skirt is attached around the base of the Cuirass done also with brass cap points and lion’s heads. A pin closure secures the armor on and overall there are six pin closures for a secure fit and done in brass.
Authentic detailing is done for the chest, peck and belly button. The Royal Muscled Cuirass weighs approximately 8-10 lbs. Fits up to 48″ chest. Not adjustable. The Cuirass measures 17 1/2″ long in back, 20 1/2″ in front.
Cuirass is body armor that protects the torso of the wearer above the waist or hips. Originally it was a thick leather garment covering the body from neck to waist, consisting of a breastplate and a backpiece fastened together with straps and buckles and a gorget, a collar protecting the throat. In Homeric and Hellenistic times, it was made of bronze. Cuirasses of leather as well as iron were worn by officers in the armies of the Roman Empire. Later made of steel, the cuirass was forerunner to the body armor worn to deflect bullets.

Product Description
Amazon.com Review
Remember when snow days meant snowball fights, building forts, and a day off from school? Now, they just mean having to shovel the driveway and walkway. Lucky for us, the Toro 1800 Power Curve snow thrower can make that job a lot less arduous and time-consuming. Powered by a 12 amp electric motor, the Power Curve can clear 4 inches of snow off a 50-by-20-foot driveway in 10 minutes flat. The thrower cuts to a depth of 10 inches and width of 18 inches per pass. A patented two-blade curved rotor scrapes the snow all the way to the pavement and throws it up to 30 feet. The chute rotates 160 degrees, too, for better snow control. Best of all, the Power Curve is lightweight, compact, and maneuverable. Startups are easy. Just squeeze the trigger on the control bar, then release it when you want to stop. A key lock helps prevent unauthorized use, so you don’t have to worry about kids, or even the neighbor borrowing it without permission. With the Power Curve, snow removal is quick and easy, so you can spend your time on more important things, like having snowball fights. –Carl Thress

Skypeâ„¢ Cordless Phone
“Stick it to the Man” Wirelessly
Shhh… don’t tell your phone company but there’s this little service called Skypeâ„¢ that, using your PC and some internet black magic, lets you talk to anyone, anywhere in the world for free. What’s that you say? You already know about Skypeâ„¢ and have been using it for months to call your cousin Sven in Copenhagen… Ahh. But wouldn’t it be delightful to roam your house freely while you and Sven chat about how Empire Strikes Back really was the best Star Wars movie ever made and how newer technology and special effects don’t necessarily make a better film?
Enter the Linksys Skypeâ„¢ Cordless Phone. Rather than be tethered to your PC for all your Skypeâ„¢ calls you can “stick it to the man” wirelessly by making and receiving free calls from every room in your house. The compact handset sports a color LCD allowing you to display your Skypeâ„¢ contact list, connection status, and see who is calling with Caller ID. Built in speakerphone on the handset is a nice extra.
Simply plug in the USB base station to your PC, install the included software and be Skyping in no time. You even get 60 free SkypeOut minutes… to call those pesky friends who don’t already use Skypeâ„¢.
