The Mission Two-Disc Special Edition)

Powerful depiction of clash of faith and reality
The cast is excellent, the story compelling and multi-layered, and the movie is a sleeper. A revealing look at colonial era slave trade in South America, and at the church struggling to be a voice of justice, but having to a servant to the state. Individual beliefs are set against greater powers, and the tragic results that those individuals submit to as a matter of faith. My favorite scene is the wordless expression of grace in a journey through the jungle with an immense pack of sinfulness loaded onto DeNiro. The cinematography is excellent, beautiful scenes against the ugliness of what Europeans are doing, and how the missionaries try to create islands of faithfulness amid a sinful and sinister game playing out around them. It was created in the 1980s, a time when the church in Central and South America was struggling with some of the same issues. The extra DVD about the production is interesting in providing background, but just the movie is worth the DVD cost of about $10. In a time of streaming, the DVD allows portability into settings without wifi access. I use it with church groups and in a ministry inside a prison.

Hand Mixer Turbo Beaters for KitchenAid, KHM2B, AP5644233, PS4082859, W10490648

Great replacement, great price
The original beaters worked just fine on our handheld KitchenAid mixer, but the tiny weld at the end where the two loops overlap gave out. You could still use the beaters, but only at low speeds. At higher speeds, the beaters would start colliding because of the warp produced by the beater with the broken weld.. We purchased these to replace them and they work just fine. The price was among the best, far cheaper than any store replacement. Prompt shipping and they were here before we ran out of cookies again!

Excellent value overall but understand its limitations
Knowing this isn't a full featured camcorder costing hundreds of dollars, the Flip has (pros) stunning picture quality and incredible ease of use plus the handy FlipShare software, but (cons) sound/audio has no range, no zoom, and limited battery. It is somewhere between the limited video capabilities of smart phones and full-fledged camcorders. The video is true HD, amazing for such a small, inexpensive camera. The pop-out USB for charging and working from your PC couldn't be easier. Mine has an HDMI port unlike the Flip in the picture; no cable. It also has a screw hole on the bottom for connecting to a tripod. One button operation basically; once it's on, push the big red button to record. That's it. The audio works fine at close range and directly in front of the speaker. I taped something that was to the side of a speaker and about 20-25 feet away, and the audio came out very, very soft, even though the speaker's voice was amplified by a sound system in the room. Also, for some reason, it shut off after an hour of recording; it was re-started and then continued another 15 minutes. I don't know why it shut off; the battery was low. You may have 2 hours of recording time, but you may not have 2 hours of battery life to continue recording for a full 2 hour stint. The FlipShare software makes working with your videos a snap. Again nothing fancy, but basic titling/credits, editing/cutting, stitching/ transitions between clips. Actually producing a single movie from several clips is a few minutes for you to set-up, but it can take an HOUR or more for FlipShare to complete producing a 25 minute movie from a couple of clips. Same with emailing an embedded video or exporting a video to your PC - an HOUR. If you're not in a rush, it's fine; it operates in the background without tying up your PC or its memory. But for faster results, you'll want more powerful video editing software. FlipShare will also pull out a still/frame shot from your video. It bought it because it's so compact - about the size of a pack of cigarettes - and easy to use while also producing high quality video that's easily shared. I'm disappointed in the audio, but for well under $100, no complaints really. Being able to share the video easily mattered; I remember working with someone's higher priced camcorder that used a proprietary file format - it was insane to convert to a use-able MPEG4 format. No problem with FlipShare, but your results won't always be quick using FlipShare. Hey, I can wait. I'd highly recommend it for family and personal use videos. Taping a lecture or a speech from a distance is unlikely to work well. Excellent value overall and very happy with it.
