The Best Brand Reviews reviewer says the Resin Wicker and Eucalyptus rocking chair is comfortable and well made. The most common complaint among Amazon customers was a tricky assembly process, as lining up the parts while tightening them is difficult for one person alone. However, once it’s made, it’s a great chair.

Based on the play LILIOM by Hungarian master Ferenc Molnár (which inspired Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Carousel), JERICHO by award-winning screenwriter and playwright Michael Weller, revolves around the love affair between a scoundrel carousel barker and a maid at a Catholic Young Women’s Inn. His confused violent passion and her simple unshakable devotion, form the combustible heart of this dark fairytale for grown-ups. Staying true to Molnár’s marginal Budapest, Weller sets JERICHO at Coney Island during the Great Depression of the 1930s; a place and time when work was scarce, and life was a matter of desperate survival.

But, he added, “there are other systems where we still lack some capabilities. But with the modernization of our command-and-control system, I think we will overcome that because we see in Europe close integration is necessary.”

HOW THE WEST WAS WON In the hands of certain songwriters, a story of resurrection and redemption might ring a little hollow. Worse, it might sound like pseudo-messianic psychobabble. But when the songwriter is Peter Perrett, the usual rules have never applied. Perrett, whose incisive songcraft and sardonic drawl made him one of the most distinctive voices of the Seventies (and briefly, the Nineties), has indeed got a tale of resurrection and redemption to tell. And even if he’s telling it with copious doses of his trademark deadpan wit, the miracle is that he’s telling it at all. Perrett made his reputation in The Only Ones (1976–1981) by writing about – and living – a life of the utmost decadence without worrying too much about the consequences. "I always flirt with death," began his most famous song (‘Another Girl, Another Planet’), "I look ill but I don’t care about it." It was an exotic universe full of strange creatures, but an incredibly dangerous one to inhabit. Not once but twice, Perrett retreated into a hermetic haze and transmitted nothing but radio silence for ten years. The two decades of his life that were surrendered to drug addiction were his own business, of… (read more)

Crystal’s affluent passengers likely have pretty nice digs back home (or homes, plural), so why should they skimp when they’re on vacation? Thus the cabins all have true king-size beds — unusual in Europe, let alone river cruising — walk-in closets with spaces for shoes, double vanities and heated floors in the bathrooms, full-size bath products, USB ports near the beds and iPads to use while onboard. The smallest cabins are 188 square feet, and the majority are 237 or 253 square feet (compared to a competing luxury river line, whose cabins start around 150 square feet with the majority at 225 square feet).

A good office chair is going to help you maintain a neutral posture. That means sitting with your feet flat on the floor; your knees slightly higher than your hips; and your hips, shoulders, and ears all lined up with each other. And since that position will be slightly different for each person, the best way to find that neutral posture is with an adjustable chair — one that’s as intuitive as possible. That’s why Bautch likes the chairs from Humanscale, a New York City–based office furniture company that’s designs chairs that have “minimum amount of levers with maximum amount of adaptability for the person sitting in it.” Their Freedom office chair, for instance, uses what’s called “self-adjusting recline,” which allows the sitter to change the chair’s angle simply by leaning back, rather than fussing with a separate lever.
