Steven Spielberg's masterful take on the H.G. Wells classic stars Tom Cruise as Ray Ferrier, a divorced New Jersey Everyman whose weekend with his kids (Dakota Fanning, Justin Chatwin) is shattered by an alien invasion. As the decidedly unfriendly E.T.s and their menacing tripods devastate the planet, Ferrier bravely attempts to reach his ex-wife (Miranda Otto) in Boston, encountering the best and worst of humanity along the way. Tim Robbins also stars. 117 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English. Two-disc set.

Rely on the protection of this OtterBox Commuter Series case to keep your Apple iPhone 7 Plus or iPhone 8 Plus protected at work or play. Two layers of defense add durable shock resistance and an easy grip, while a self-adhesive screen protector keeps fingerprints off your screen. This OtterBox Commuter Series case has functional port covers that keep grime out.

OtterBox has always made good cases, this one is a nice one that is not overly large like some Otterbox cases tend to be, this is more slim and does what it was designed to do, protect your phone.

This movie is ok but the story line has been done better in other movies, the movie leaves a lot of holes that are not addressed, lets just say it has some action but it is not a master piece.

Choose another brand that will honor the warranty.

Washer makes a clicking should at certain speeds when the drum turns, poor quality control by Samsung, also if you buy online forget about a warranty, Samsung will not accept the online receipt from Best Buy and will not accept the warranty set up on the Samsung website. Very disappointed in Samsung for the poor quality and the warranty registration policies that prevent you from registering the unit for warranty.

It is a box, it does what it is supposed to do but it is still just a box with a drawer. Over priced by Samsung for what you get but it gets the front load washer higher off the floor. Price should be much lower.

Home Improvement had closed out its first season as the nation's fifth highest-rated TV program, and neither its producers nor the ABC network saw the need to make anything but superficial changes for the series' second season on the air. ABC moved the program from its Tuesday night slot to an even better Wednesday-night berth, while one of the recurring characters, long-suffering "Tool Time" assistant Al Borland (Richard Karn), was promoted to "series regular" status. Otherwise, things remained pretty much the same as they'd been during season one. Protagonist Tim Taylor (Tim Allen) was still a fount of wisdom and expertise on his Detroit-based "do it yourself" cable TV series, "Tool Time" but a momument to ineptitude and insensitivity in his own home. Tim's wife, Jill (Patricia Richardson), now employed at a Detroit magazine, continued in her efforts to force culture and class upon her husband, all the while struggling to prevent him from "repairing" the household appliances. The Taylors' three sons -- eleven-year-old Brad (Zachery Ty Bryan), ten-year-old Randy (Jonathan Taylor Thomas), and seven-year-old Mark (Taran Noah Smith) -- persisted in causing trouble for themselves and their parents, though it was clear that there was a lot of love and mutual respect in the family's household. Of the remaining characters, ubiquitous neighbor Wilson (Earl Hindman) continued to dispense advice and philosophy to Tim and his brood -- and also continued to remain a somewhat shadowy figure, never showing his face to anyone. Buxom "tool girl" Lisa (Pamela Anderson) was still a fixture of Tim's TV series, seldom saying much but certainly making a big impression whenever she wriggled into camera range. And in a new development, Maureen Binford (Vicki Lewis), ditzy daughter of "Tool Time"'s primary sponsor, became the series' producer, saddling Tim with all manners of idiotic format changes to boost his ratings. Moving from fifth to third place in the real-life ratings, Home Improvement was the second most popular sitcom of 1992-1993, beaten out only by another ABC offering, Roseanne. And for the second year in a row, an Emmy award was bestowed upon the series' director of photography, Donald A. Morgan.

Tim Taylor (Tim Allen), self-assured authority on all things mechanical while starring in his own cable-TV series "Tool Time," continues to be an all-thumbs prophet without honor in his own home as Home Improvement enters its third season. With Tim's on-air "Tool Girl" Lisa having left for greener pastures (much like the actress who played her, Pamela Anderson), Debbe Dunning joins the regular cast as new Tool Girl Heidi, every bit as voluptuous as her predecessor. In another season-three development, Tim's "Tool Time" helper, Al (Richard Karn), a lifelong bachelor, begins yearning for a wife and kids on the occasion of his 35th birthday, thus Tim's helpful missus, Jill (Patricia Richardson), fixes Al up with her friend Ilene Markham (Sherry Hursey) -- whereupon the overwhelmed Al proposes to Ilene during a "Tool Time" broadcast! Finally, Robert Picardo joins the cast as Tim's explosive new neighbor Joe Morton, as does Mariangela Pino as Joe's wife, Marie Morton. Even as Heidi, Ilene, and the Mortons come on board, another recurring character passes from the scene: Mr. Binford, Tim's boss, sponsor, and friend. The death of Binford culminates in a touching (but still very funny) episode in which Tim is afraid to cry upon hearing the news. For the third year in a row, the series' season finale finds Tim locked in deadly competition with rival do-it-yourself TV host Bob Vila, playing "himself" for the last time (on this show, at any rate!) in "The Great Race II." Also for the third year in a row, the series' lighting director, Donald A. Morgan, picked up an Emmy award. Home Improvement closed out season three as America's second most popular series.

You and your guests know good taste is about more than big flavors. Thanks to LG's sleek slide-in induction range with ProBake Convection, you won't just entertain - you'll wow. The generous 6.3 cu. ft. capacity oven handles that impressive roast and all the accompaniments, while ProBake Convection achieves baking perfection. And with the SmoothTouch glass controls and induction technology focusing the heat towards the bottom of the cookware only, it guarantees you quick and even heating as well as energy savings, and safe operation from start to finish.

LG LSE4616ST Induction Top Convection Oven
By John3976
We purchased this range in November 2020 when it was on sale so we saved $700.00 dollars on it, the induction burners are amazing, they allow you to control the heat immediately up or down resulting in better prepared food. We have Allclad Copper Core Stainless Steal pots and pans and with this induction cook top food just tastes better. The oven is very good as well, it preheats very fast and it cooks very well. We made cookies in it and they came out perfect no over baked bottoms like our old range would do. Water will boil in no time at all when on boost for the burners. We are very pleased with this induction/convection range and would recommend it.
Prices are still on the high side so if you can get it when a sale is going on it makes it a better deal but induction cook tops are the way to go.

Update on our LG induction cook top range
June 18, 2023
We have now owned this range for over 2 1/12 years now and it is awesome, the induction cook top is easy to clean with spray ceramic cook top cleaner sprays, what makes it easy to clean is because the cook top itself does not get as hot as a normal ceramic flat top range. Clean up is only 10 to 15 seconds and your induction cook top is clean. LG did a fantastic job on this induction cook top range and the oven works just as good with its temp control.
You won't go wrong with this LG LSE4616ST Induction Top Convection Oven. We highly recommend it.

If you think a refrigerator with top-of-the-line features means sacrificing style or space, this will make you reconsider. With nearly 25 cu. ft. of space, this 33" wide refrigerator has a large capacity. It also has Smart Cooling technology built-in, designed to help keep your food fresher. With that, and much more, you get the peace-of-mind of a 10-year warranty on the Smart Inverter Compressor.

LG Fridge
By Mike
Overall LG makes a great product and no exception with this fridge, The only thing missing on this fridge for those of you that like filtered water is a spot to get water, it has an icemaker so why not include a filter water spout.

LG makes other models with water and ice in door
June 24, 2023
You do know that LG makes other models with ice and water in the door right? Further the two biggest repair problems for refrigerators is those water and ice dispensers. For the best reliability you do not want water and ice dispensers in the door. There are some good review sites that explain this in detail. I just purchased LG refrigerator and picked it because it does not have water and ice in the door.

Magnets and stainless steel
June 24, 2023
There are different grades of stainless steel, the best grades are not magnetic while the lessor grades of stainless are magnetic. We have a Bosch micro wave and it uses the higher grade stainless steel and is not magnetic, it was manufactured in 2007 and still going strong. We just purchased a Bosch 800 series dishwasher and it uses a lower grade of stainless steel as it is magnetic. If this LG stainless steel refrigerator will allow a magnet to stick then it is using a lower grade stainless steel, there is nothing wrong with that as the higher the grade of stainless steel the more it costs.

Where do I find the F/ Serial Number?

Open the door and you will find a white label on the top left front of microwave frame as you are facing it, the model and serial number are located on this label with other information.

How do I turn on the task lights and the exhaust fan for the stove top below?

There is a button for tuning on the lights and the fan, you just push the light button once for its bright setting and push it again for the night light setting and push it one more time to turn off the lights. The fan button works the same way you push it to turn on the fan and push again to change the speed of the fan and push it again to turn off the fan.

Does this work with the same mounting bracket and top vent position as the Bosch HMV5053U? My HMV5053U just died and they are not available for order. I'd like to make reinstallation as easy as possible and use the existing mount and vent.

I am going to say no because we had the HMV9305/01 Bosch 1.8 cu ft microwave and this Bosch 800 Series is the replacement for that old Bosch series. The back bracket is different size wise, the same basic design but just enough different our old HMV9305/01 wall bracket did not work and we had to install the new wall bracket in place of the old one. Also the top mounting holes for the three top mounting screws are not in the same exact locations so you will have to drill three new holes.

I have a cut out in my kitchen to put a microwave oven. With this over the range microwave convection oven, what issues might I have to install or ventilate it.

The install is straight forward, no gotcha issues, there is a plate that mounts to the wall behind the microwave that has a lip on the bottom of the plate. Once the plate is installed on the wall the back of the microwave has a lip that will connect with the lip on the plate so you install it with the front are a downward angle then rotate the microwave upward to the bottom of the cabinet above it. You have drilled holes for the three mounting screws to go through the bottom floor of the cabinet and a larger holt for the plug and cord to fit through so you can plug the microwave into the 110 volt electric receptacle that powers the microwave. The unit does weigh just over 50 pounds so pull out your range so you can lift the microwave into place and have a help to insert the top mounting screws and pull the plug through its hole so it does not get pinched.

Since the dimensions are not exactly the same, will this 800 series fit properly (without any gaps on the sides) as a replacement for the Bosch HMV9305/01?

Yes this is a direct replacement size wise for the old Bosch HMV9305/01 microwave, they are both a 1.8 cu ft and the outer dimensions are very close to each other, any gap will be very small as this Bosch 800 Series is designed to fit in the same size cutout.

The interior of the 800 Series has a 14 inch rotating glass plate vs the old HMV9305/01 on having a 12 inch rotating glass plate so you will get more interior room with the Bosch 800 Series microwave.

can you toast bread in this microwave

No it is not a toaster and does not have an exposed heating element, it does have a convection oven so you could make frozen Texas toast style bread in it using the convection oven feature.

If the unit vents to room while mounted underneath a cabinet where does the airflow come out into the room? Is it out the top in the front part of the microwave not covered by a cabinet?

Yes the air will vent from the top front of the microwave blowing upwards.
