Black holes are the best-known and least-understood objects in the universe. In Einstein's Monsters, distinguished astronomer Chris Impey takes readers on a vivid tour of these enigmatic giants. He weaves a fascinating tale out of the fiendishly complex math of black holes and the colorful history of their discovery. Impey blends this history with a poignant account of the phenomena scientists have witnessed while observing black holes: stars swarming like bees around the center of our galaxy; black holes performing gravitational waltzes with visible stars; the cymbal clash of two black holes colliding, releasing ripples in space time. Clear, compelling, and profound, Einstein's Monsters reveals how our comprehension of black holes is intrinsically linked to how we make sense of the universe and our place within it.

Dissatisfied
Didn't like the socks at all. The silicone in them made my feet sweat and couldn't wiggle my toes at all. Gloves were okay, received them with holes between the fingers, only able to wear each twice.

too small
I saw these and instantly thought they would be amazing! I was hoping for just that. I received them today and tried them right away. I love the gel feel but im not really liking the way they kept rolling off. They're a bit too small id say and when walking they roll off from the back. I didnt think my foot was other than average? Maybe? Im a size 7 in women's shoes.

Super Awesome
I have the driest feet, my mom did too so I should have known that I would inherit it as an adult myself. My toes literally crack and split open from dry skin, I call them fissures. They really hurt. Last night I used my cheese grater foot file gently on my heels and calloused parts, and then applied liberal lotion, and wore those squishy socks all night. I woke up to the most moisturized youthful feet I’ve ever seen attached to my body! Wow these totally work!!! I even slept better than I have in a very long time. I’m very pleased. These did exactly what I hoped they would do.

Great glitter body spray
Color: Fairy-Diamond, Color: Fairy-Diamond
So cute. Came with extra glitter, I’m assuming lipgloss you can make into glitter lipgloss, a funnel to help pour the glitter. Or re load your spray. The spray performance is nice. Might stick better with some oil before hand? But I like it so far. Worked 6 hours and still had glitter on me for my photoshoot. I sprayed perfume and then glitter. There’s no odor. The amount of quantity of glitter you get seems good for the price. Durability seems good so far but like I said may need some oil or lotion first to help it stick all day.

Troll glitter
Color: Brandy-Rose
Do not spray too much! This glitter is so fine that it dispenses easily from the puff part and you can easily make yourself look like Poppy the troll. We had so much fun with this for prom
