It may be too much to ask in these difficult times for a client of mine to decide to splurge on such a centerpiece; but I'll ask anyway.
Pleeease!

Crazy for Metallo Arts
Hood manufacturer Metallo Arts has been tempting me with ads in industry publications of late. Their patterns and finishes are truly artful and unique.
It may be too much to ask in these difficult times for a client of mine to decide to splurge on such a centerpiece; but I'll ask anyway.
Pleeease!

2008 Kitchen Appliance Study
There is a 2008 Kitchen Appliances Study of 14,782 consumers who purchased one or more new kitchen appliances through a retail store or their new-home builder, or received one through other means (such as a gift) during the previous 24 months. The study was conducted by J.D. Power and Associates and released last week.
The study measures customer satisfaction in five segments of kitchen appliances: dishwashers; free-standing ranges; built-in cooktops and wall ovens; freezer-on-top style refrigerators; and side-by-side and French door style refrigerators.
Customer satisfaction is measured based on performance in six factors:
Operational performance (including how well the appliance functions
Noise level and energy efficiency)
Operational features (such as the number of settings available and appliance capacity)
Ease of use
Styling and feel
Price
Warranty
Definitely worth a look.

DTV Troubleshooting Guide
The FCC has just released a consumer DTV Troubleshooting Guide for Digital to Analog Converter boxes and Digital Television. This guide provides a connections checklist and tips on reception of digital signals. It answers questions and provides tips to consumers who may be having difficulty receiving digital broadcast stations in specific areas.
The digital television (DTV) transition refers to the requirement that all full-power television broadcast stations stop broadcasting in analog format and broadcast only in digital format after February 17, 2009. Broadcast stations in all U.S. markets are currently broadcasting in both analog and digital.
