From avalanches to glaciers, from seals to snowflakes, and from Shackleton's expedition to The Year Without Summer, Bill Streever journeys through history, myth, geography, and ecology in a year-long search for cold -- real, icy, 40-below cold. In July he finds it while taking a dip in a 35-degree Arctic swimming hole; in September while excavating our planet's ancient and not so ancient ice ages; and in October while exploring hibernation habits in animals, from humans to wood frogs to bears. A scientist whose passion for cold runs red hot, Streever is a wondrous guide: he conjures woolly mammoth carcasses and the ice-age Clovis tribe from melting glaciers, and he evokes blizzards so wild readers may freeze -- limb by vicarious limb.Binding Type: Paperback

Un mess your kitchen sink mess
Color: Black - 9.25″
Just the exact right thing to gather all the sink doodads into one place. There is a little divider that is movable so you can adjust the sponge holder to your brand of sponge. AND it has a drain spout for the water run off. Very sturdy and handy sink catch all.

Great for organizing sink
Color: White - 9.25″
We had one of those suction cup sponge holders, but if you have tile that is not completely smooth, it falls down. This does not have that issue because it just sits on the counter or if you have a large sink lip, on there. You can move the inside pieces around which I was really surprised about because I thought it was all in one piece. Being able to move them around is great because then you can adjust it for your own soap dispensers, etc to fit your space. I like that it comes in a ton of colors. We got the white and it blends into our kitchen and looks really nice. This organizes our dish soap, sink drain cover, and sponges nicely and gives it all a space to go in. The tray on the bottom is silicon and removable which is great. I wish I had bought this thing years ago because it's great.

Great deal. Great product. Simple and efficient.
Color: Black - 9.25″
It is very simple to put together and it feels sturdy and I like how it looks. I know everyone's sink is different but it fits mine PERFECT. I'm really happy with this purchase. Good price good value. I don't see why you wouldn't buy it if this is the style you were looking for.

Attractive and functional
Size: 01
We need a little help in organizing our kitchen. We got this little gym. We put hand soap, dish soap, and a scrub brush in here. All in one place. Neat and tidy. And attractive to boot. I highly recommend it.
