I watched this film as part of TCM’s Salute to Gregory Peck, one of the greatest actors ever to grace the screen. He was great in the two versions of “Moby Dick” (as Ahab in the 1956 Version, and as Father Mapple in the 1998 USA Miniseries), and was excellent in “To Kill a Mockingbird.” As for this film, Peck put his heart and soul into his portrayal of one of history’s greatest military generals: General Douglas MacArthur. The scenes dealing with other people and events tend to lag at times, but Peck’s outstanding performance and the epic battle scenes (featuring visual effects that are awesome for 1977) make this film a must-own!! Grade: A+

We put off buying a new scale for months, assuming the range of options would be daunting. Finally I got tired of changing weight by 5 pounds in an hour, and decided the old one was shot.
I am so happy with this scale! I step on it, and it lights up right away. The display is big enough to read without my glasses — and it registers the same weight when I step on it a second time. We did not need the extra wide version, but found this one sturdy enough to help weigh our son’s checked bags as we flew him to college last week. It was reassuring to know that one bag was within the airline limits – and to know one was not, so we could rearrange.
I highly recommend this scale. it is very attractive, accurate, easy to use — and in the product literature you get the idea that it is made by real people, who really care about quality and customer service.
How often is a product exactly right (especially a product with which middle aged women like me sometimes have a complicated relationship!)

My friend and I usually have the same taste in books. She loved Twilight. When she loaned me her copy of Twilight, I anticipated it to be an amazing novel.
I couldn’t have been more wrong.
The plot holes. There were so many plot holes in Twilight. For example, were the kids at Forks High so stupid that they didn’t notice the Cullens’ eye color changing? Or how Edward and his family skipped school every time there was a sunny day? Didn’t they ever brush against a Cullen by accident, and realize how cold and hard their skin was? Why didn’t Carlisle Cullen ever think of homeschooling? I could go on forever? Why did 5 guys fall in love with Bella in Forks, while she had NO guy attention in Phoenix?
The characters where completely unoriginal. They ALL fit into a stereotype. Bella was the typical “weak” female, with no redeeming qualities. Edward was the hot guy, Mike/Eric/Tyler/ were the guys that had crushes on Bella, with no other parts to their personalities. Alice was the bubbly shopoholic, Lauren was the jealous queen bee. NONE of them had anything more to their personalities.
The superficiality of Edward and Bella’s relationship. He liked her, because she smelled good. She liked him because he was gorgeous. That’s all to their relationship. It’s nothing about personality.
The writing style. Stephenie Meyer kept elaborating about Edward’s looks .It makes the reader want to hurl. Also, Stephenie Meyer adds impressive vocab to make herself sound smart. (I have no problem with impressive vocab, it’s just the way it doesn’t even fit in the story)
Why does Edward watch Bella sleep? Doesn’t anyone realize how twisted that is? That’s not love. That’s creepy obsesssion.
Bella has nothing at all to her personality. She was supposed to be plain, yet guys are all over her. She flirts with Jacob, and then blows him off for Edward.
Don’t read Twilight if you value your time. Read Anne Rice.
