Rated 5 Stars"Pretty awesome" 2009-09-16
I decided to try out a Moka Pot (3-cup) just for the hell of it. Pretty easy. Filtered water into the water reservoir, ground coffee into the coffee filter, screw on top, place on stop with medium heat, wait for 10 minutes. Pretty simple. I haven't had problems with melting handles or melted o-rings, so... it works. Just make sure you do medium heat.

Rated 5 Stars"Wacquant's book is a must-read for students of sociology" 2006-08-27
I had Professor Wacquant for one of my classes and I have to say he is an excellent professor who has amazing ideas about today's society. In this book, he argues against the mainstream idea of the underclass and he also explains how the boxing gym is a force in opposition to the forces of the ghetto. Very well written, the book is a very good read. It has been very interesting for me, as I am studying sociology as a college student and I box in my spare time.

Rated 5 Stars"Funky!" 2005-04-09
WOW! This album is FUNKY! Ninja Tune is a pioneer for various trip-hop artists, and this compilation is a great introduction to the wide range of sounds produced by this company. Some of these tracks are quite slow and jazzy, while some of them exhibit some excellent DnB specimens. Yet others just give you that great, slow, rolling, fat funk! All of them show off out-of-this-world production values. Expect to hear all sorts of sounds, samples, scratches.

Some tracks I recommend are:

"Shakatakadoodub" has a relentless beat that drives the energy forward. Not as funky as the other tracks, but certainly worth a listen.
"Junkies Bad Trip" is funky. Period. Guitar, brass, bass, drums. What more do you need, really?
"London Mind State" is mellow, and chill. Smooth.
"Spoonful Of Slow" is another deeply chill track. Has this slow, dragging beat. The chords are just so sexy.
"Spiral" is a more abrasive breakbeat track. Very energetic.
"Scratchy Noise" is so funky, with a beat so strong, and a bassline so groovy, the track will make you smile because it just sounds so damn good!
"Turn Me Loose" is a moderately-paced breakbeat track, yet the sound is just so chill and mellow.
"Scratch Yer Hed" ventures into some abrasive and loud DnB territory. The rhythm is complex, and it's sort of hard to follow, but in the middle, it does break into a nice, slow funky stretch.

If you like Ninja Tune, you will no doubt love this album. If you like trip-hop or even hip-hop, you will appreciate the album's repect for the funkiest sounds. If you like breakbeat in general, you'll find it all here. Don't like hip-hop? Well, there's stuff in here for those of you who like jazz. Get this album! It gives you two awesome disks of funky stuff for the price of one!
