Date Published: 12/4/07 The Dyson Root 6 DC16 is by far the most powerful handheld cordless vacuum we've tested. It picks up debris with ease, including larger particles such as cereal, sand and other debris. In fact, it performs like we think all handheld vacuums should -- but often don't. That's why we were so pleasantly surprised by the suction power of the Root 6. It uses patented Dyson Cyclone technology, which translates into constant suction that pulls debris into a view-through collection canister. The canister is easy to open and a breeze to empty. The Dyson Root 6 DC16 features a sleek design with most working parts located at the rear of the vacuum. We initially worried this might make the Root 6 unbalanced, but this was not the case. It is easy to hold and lightweight. We could use the Root 6 to thoroughly clean an area without experiencing any hand cramping or aching. Ergonomical? Yes. The initial purchase includes a battery charger, and we discovered the Dyson Root 6... See less

The Robotic Floor Washer. This is the Scooba® (invented by the creators of the Roomba®), an autonomous robot that efficiently and simultaneously prepares, washes, and scrubs tile, linoleum, or sealed hardwood floors, without human intervention. Using tap water, vinegar, or a bleach-free solution, Scooba methodically cleans a medium-sized kitchen floor in as little as one hour, navigating independently (the Scooba can clean up to 250' sq. on a full charge of its rechargeable battery). As it passes over flooring, the robot picks up loose dirt and sprays solution, while a rotary scrubber gently cleans. The robot is compact enough to reach under cabinet kick boards and most furniture, and at the touch of a button, it courses through a room, moving around chair legs, ledges, and other roadblocks thanks to patented AWARE sensor technology that redirects the robot when it gently encounters an object. Cleans a standard-sized kitchen floor on a single tank, and it can be restricted to clean... See less

If you're looking for magical words that will imbue you with the power to get people to do your bidding, you won't find them here. What you will find, instead, is something based on reality. One of the things that bothers me about "non-fiction" titles these days is most authors assume the book is their pulpit for pushing their personal (and usually irrational) political views. Even if those views have nothing whatsoever to do with the topic of the book, and even if their "supportive arguments" defy logic, they feel compelled to slip that stuff in. I've pointed out examples of this in some of my other reviews, and it is more the rule than the exception. When I came across this book, authored by a figure who works primarily in the political arena, my nonsense detector went on red alert. And it turned out to be a false alarm. Drawing on a wide base of facts and correctly applying logic, Dr. Luntz has produced a valuable work of nonfiction. The book sticks to the subject it promises to... See less

From Publishers Weekly Starred Review. Back for another highly entertaining round of Biology 101, the team behind YOU: The Owner's Manual applies its signature wit and wisdom to food metabolism and nutrition. According to Roizen and Oz, waist measurement, not weight, is the most important factor in mortality related to obesity, and understanding the relationship between chemicals and hormones influencing hunger and those signaling satiety is the key to ending yo-yo dieting. Most diets fail, Roizen and Oz conclude, because body chemistry overrules the best plans and intentions. To restore the body's natural ability to balance hunger and satiety and offset the effects of stress on food choices, they list foods and supplements that fight fat, decrease appetite and combat inflammation that causes disease. Roizen and Oz pack in a lot of material—quizzes, "factoids" and "myth busters" along with diet and exercise plans, recipes and a two-week "rebooting" program—in bite-sized portions,... See less
