I can do no better than to quote the product site itself: The WATER RESONATOR is the original water balancing technology used by Tibetan and Buddhist monks for hundreds of years. Each one […]
Ricardo Montalban, one of the most distinctive and evocative voices from my childhood and early adulthood, died yesterday at age 88. No one could say “soft Corinthian leather” with quite the same intonation: And, of course, he earned geek/SF immortality with his role in “Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan”, still the best of […]
