will provide hours of gaming fun
Keeps in the tradition of Oblivion with breath taking graphics and my monitor is 1440X900 great game play but lots of traveling to next objective can be frustrating.I liked the feature of comparative ratings of weapons and armor.
If you liked games in the form of Oblivion and Dragon age you'll love this Skyrim. Note that some of the keyboard functions have changed from Oblivion

Gr8 quality
My eggs were starting to stick on my 10" pan that came in my Costco-Kirkland brand.
So I purchased this and it matches my older pan mentioned above and the eggs just slid right off

Better than my Cuisinart
1 of 1 found this helpful I gave away My Cuisinart DBK500BK Grind in Brew to go back to my Gevalia coffee maker. Reasons being...
1. Easy to program. Lost the instructions to the Cuisinart (see my tip below for The Gevalia's instructions)and never could figure out on the BDK500BL how to program it.
2. The Gevalia coffee makers has a cone shaped filter. The Cuisinart had the flat basket; if you less than 6 cups, you run the chance of not having
the grounds covering the entire bottom of the basket, ergo a weaker cup of coffee. What ever coffee you decide to purchase, get one that uses cone shaped filters as it makes
a much better cup of coffee.
3. You can brew loose tea in a cone shaped filter. And you can purchase the reusable gold type
4. The water level indicator is on the outside of the unit. On the Cuisinart you had to look inside the water reservoir and use a flashlight too.
5. With the Grind and Brew, every so often the drip stop plug on the pause & pour part would get stuck open and, as you remove the carafe, coffee poured out. Can't remember
The Gevalia ever doing that. Will up date if necessary.
6. Easy to pour carafe. You may not think that is necessary to mention, but My brother and sister-n-law have a coffee maker's carafe that when you pour that
that first cup, you had to do it over the sink as coffee ran down the front (poor design on the spout). I'll find out what brand it is and report back.
7. The Gevalia made a much better cup of coffee.
So all and all, The Gevalia is a simple and practical coffee maker without any complicated features. I love my Gevalia so much I purchased two used units online to keep in reserve as I seem to be hard on appliances.
Below are some programing instructions and Coffee maker maintenance tips.
Gevalia Instructions
Use the scoop provided to add your coffee. If you prefer strong European coffee, use one level scoop of coffee for each cup or 6 oz. or 10 scoops for a full pot. Adjust the amounts according to your taste, but don't exceed the 12-cup level of water in the reservoir. Securely position the filter basket, push down and lock into place. Close the reservoir cover and press the "On" button. The red LED light indicates the cycle has begun. When the cycle ends, there will be excess hot liquid in the filter basket. Let it cool before removing the basket and the coffee grounds. The warming plate will operate for up to two hours, as long as the red LED light is lit, then it will automatically shut off. When you're completely finished, turn the switch off. For brewing consecutively, allow at least 10 minutes in between pots. Rinse the filter basket for each brew.
Setting Auto-Brew
Set the clock by pressing the hour and minute button to scroll through the numbers to set the current time. When the correct time is reached, release the button. Don't forget to set the time for AM/PM, located above and below the red indicator light. The clock will flash a few times until the time is set. Press the program button and the words will appear on the clock. Set the appropriate time you want the brewing cycle to commence, using the hour and minute buttons. Press program again to confirm your setting. The program indicator will flash a few seconds before automatically returning to the current time.
