Angelina is a promising young ballerina with a sensitive ego and an unruly temper. It's not surprising, then, that Angelina's excitement over the upcoming Christmas dance production of Cinderella Mouse and the Ugly Whiskers quickly turns to fury when visiting composer and musical director Mr. Operatski casts Priscilla in the starring role of Cinderella, leaving Angelina to dance the role of Wicked Stepmouse. Taking Miss Lilly's advice, Angelina tries to "think horrid," but ends up acting so selfishly that Mr. Operatski dismisses Angelina all together and re-casts Miss Lilly as the Wicked Stepmouse. When Angelina unwittingly injures Miss Lilly, the entire performance is threatened. Can Angelina's newfound humility and good intentions save the production? (Ages 3-8) --Tami Horiuchi |

Assembling various analog sources on basic software at home, Pioulard has honed his craft into a form that suggests something far grander. With soft-edged vocals and a broad palette of instruments that lately includes harmonium and cello, he constructs diverse arrangements that skirt the borders of pop with beautiful, detailed atmospheres. The scope and sonic narratives of songs like "A Woolgathering Exodus" and "Golden Grin" exhibit new degrees of musicality, while the weightlessness of "Brown Bess" or "Sweep Generator" reflects the unrestrained context in which the record was produced.Tags : Temper

The Rodney King riots of April 1992 hang like a keg of dynamite over Dark Blue, a crackling tale of Los Angeles police corruption that gives Kurt Russell one of the best roles of his underrated career. Adapted by Training Day screenwriter David Ayer from a story by L.A. Confidential novelist James Ellroy, the plot finds Russell's rule-bending detective teamed with a promising young partner (Scott Speedman) whose ethics have yet to be tainted. Their boss (Brendan Gleeson) is a lawless maverick, maneuvering the unwitting detectives into covering up a lucrative robbery scam, while L.A.P.D.'s Deputy Chief (Ving Rhames) campaigns to bring them all down. While adhering to familiar cop-thriller formula, director Ron Shelton (Bull Durham) escalates tension with forceful impact, drawing a climactic parallel between the King riots and the fallout from Russell's cynical behavior. It's a powerhouse combination, allowing Russell to find shades of complexity in a character who realizes, almost too late, that he's a devil in the hell of L.A. --Jeff Shannon |

Carrying too much body fat can increase your risk of developing many serious health problems including high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart disease, diabetes and cancer. Research has shown that maintaining a healthy weight and body fat range can reduce your risk and help prevent the onset of these conditions. Unlike weight, body fat is not always visible and it can't be determined on an ordinary scale. Until recently, estimating body fat has been an expensive, time consuming process usually conducted only through medical and athletic facilities-or simply left to guesswork. This scale gives you a more complete picture of the shape you're in by accurately determining your body fat percentage.
The scale uses one of the most reliable methods of analyzing body composition, BIA, short for bioelectrical impedance analysis. BIA is based on a persons height, weight and the strength and speed at which a very safe, low-level electrical signal passes through the muscle and fat in the body. The scale uses a true BIA process that is accurate, convenient and fast. Electrodes built into the platform sends a safe electronic signal through the body. Weight and body fat are calculated automatically. It can be pre-programmed with 8 user's personal data. |

Disciplining children is arguably one of the hardest skills for parents to learn. As a parent herself, Elizabeth Pantley knows what a challenge it is to establish good discipline, and she shares the hard-won wisdom of her experience with parents in this latest edition to her revolutionary "no-cry" approach to parenting. In this case, we have no doubt she’s saving parents from tears, too! Elizabeth Pantley’s approach to this age-old problem is unique because she doesn’t rely on old discipline models that often make parents feel like the bad guy. Instead, she gives parents the communication tools they need to stop bad behavior in its tracks and gain a deeper understanding of what triggers a child to act out. Any parent will appreciate the focus on love and nurturing in this wholly practical and much-needed addition to the child care shelf.A Special Message from Elizabeth Pantley to Amazon.com Readers As a mom of four, two boys and two girls, I know that raising children is a unique experience every day. Our children bring us a level of joy, and a depth of love, that nothing else in our history has prepared us for. They change us as human beings, and we can never go back to who we were before they entered our lives. We love our children intensely, yet every day life with them can be challenging, frustrating and exhausting. All day, every day, there are so many things we must get our children to do--or stop from doing. Beginning with getting them out of bed in the morning, and ending with putting them to bed at night (and often, not even then), our job involves an incredible amount of organization, guidance, direction and connection. And all that requires a brilliance and stamina that we never knew we possessed, but somehow must find. I spend my time surrounded by parents, children and families. I’ve worked with hundreds of "Test Parents" from all over the world during my book writing process. And of course, I have my very own "laboratory" in my home. So I have a very good idea of the top issues that all parents share. I research the best answers that support positive, nurturing, "No-Cry" parenting ideals and share those answers with my readers in my books. I hope that I can help you to find the solutions to the parenting challenge that you are facing today. Hugs,
