...Harvard shades. Two large photographic prints are mounted in silvery frames on the wall. An white orchid plant, stems blooming, rests by the window. A Louis Vuitton suitcase has been transformed into a coffee table. A pair of wooden screens rest against the wall. Shemtov added these screens to mask “prison-like” feel of Leverett’s singles...

...takes place in a library and is about a guy who falls "head over heels" for the would-be-hot-if-she-weren't-wearing-enormous-glasses librarian. But like any good 1980s music video, it doesn't make any sense-a monkey, a man in a gas mask, and a rabbi all make absurdist cameos. So when the parody's creator, Dustin McLean, references them directly-"Now the rabbi's walking right behind me"-it's funny. At least, it's supposed to be funny. It is supposed to be funny, right? I don't know, it just seems...

...President?”I’ve spoken those words hundreds of times now, and among the few undecided voters left, the reaction is always the same. First, their eyebrows furrow. Their shoulders shrink imperceptibly. And then a thin-lipped smile settles across their faces like a mask snapping into place. “Still undecided,” they’ll say.

...Dreamer and Dream Essence I've gone to bed with the Dreamer a handful of times. And now I want to marry it. A pillowy bulge lines the bottom of the mask, which feels so light and cushy on the sinuses and allows for hardcore REM action (and for women, protection from make-up smudge during a cat nap). The design blocks out every stray photon of light, and the silky head-strap won't give you any rude awakenings or crude indentations. If you want to spice things up, try the Dream Essence mask, which has a pocket that...

...Beaded Bliss Brain strain, go away... Stick this bead-filled baby in the fridge for 60 minutes (or in the freezer for 15 minutes), Velcro it on and it's like having a Popsicle when you were a kid - it somehow makes everything better. You can also heat the mask up in the microwave (15 seconds) to ease nasal congestion, soothe an allergy-puffed face or just kick back and relax (a mask cover is recommended, which also helps block light). Beaded Bliss, indeed. Price: $7.95 for eye mask; $6.95 for eye-mask cover...
