A very good adventure film - but dark and gritty. Excellent acting and cinematography. I took off a star because the digital code did not work for me.

This is an excellent movie. The presentation of Hercule Poirot is quite different from other Agatha Christie films.
I think it is actually the best I have seen. I deducted one star because there was no digital code in the case - in fact, upon reading the back of the case, I found that it stated any digital code may not even be valid after 2020.

We all need extra outlet space for new devices and plugs. The Insignia 2-Outlet Plug Liberator helps you achieve just that. A short 6" cord lets you separate large plug while keeping the original plug intact. Two AC outlets allow you to power multiple devices at the same time. A white color camouflages the plug liberator allowing it to match with most modern cords. Use this to organize computer equipment, home theater systems and much more. Free up plugins today and forget about needing to find extra outlets.

This is an excellent remastering on 180 gram heavyweight vinyl. Maria Callas was one of the most famous opera singers of the 20th century, and some of her best pieces are on this album. This album is well worth adding to your collection of opera recordings. I have attached a picture of the back of the album cover that lists the selections on this album.

I have had the older version of this adapter for some time, and when I saw this new, updated model, decided to get it.
It was a very good decision - the new model is more powerful and has better wifi reception than the older model. I can now stream with it much, much better! I recommend it highly!

I have a high end Sony smart tv, but have long been unhappy with its ability to stream over my Wi-Fi. This Roku Streaming Stick 4k (2021) has eliminated that problem! It has a superior antenna for Wi-Fi reception and transmission, and a much better processor for Wi-Fi that allows me now to stream with no drops and no buffering.
Also, I am very impressed with the simplicity of the menu system of the Roku, and the fact that they are not cluttered with distracting ads.
I highly recommend this device!
