MBM Destroyit 2240 Cross Cut Paper Shredder – DSH0040 Review

The MBM Destroyit 2240 Cross Cut Paper Shredder is a great option for home or small office use. With automatic features and a single multifunction button, this shredder is both convenient and easy to use. Equipped with a powerful, single phase motor and durable steel blades backed by a lifetime warranty, the 2240 is a dependent device. Here is a closer look.

Strengths:

• Standing almost 18 inches high, this compact shredder can easily sit beneath or next to your desk. But smallness doesn’t decrease performance. A photo cell controlled auto start and stop senses papers as they slide in and begins shredding on cue. A single, backlit switch controls three functions, including stand-by, stop (off) and reverse. Coupled together, these two make use of this machine uncomplicated and easy.
• The Safety Protection System on MBM Destroyits provides added security against accidental injury. An electronically controlled safety shield safeguards against fingers or other objects from entering the blades. A magnetic sensor on the cabinet door activates the automatic stop function when the door is left open, protecting hands from coming into contact with active blades. Finally, if something does get caught in the blades, whether too much paper or an improper shredding object, the emergency stop function cuts the power to the motor.
• The cross cutting mechanism dices full size documents into 1/8 inch by 1 inch pieces, small enough to earn a level 3 security rating. A lifetime warranty guarantees the cutting shafts and wheels, saving you from ever needing a replacement. Most other parts carry a one year warranty.
• The small shreds are deposited into a 5 gallon, impact resistant, plastic waste container. A handle easily removes the shredding unit for easy disposal. Once the bag is full or the head is removed, the automatic stop function removes power from the motor, helping to prevent accidental injury.

Weaknesses:

• The feed entry is limited to 8-3/4 inches wide and only handles 6 sheets at a time. This is average for a small deskside shredder and for home or small office use will be adequate. The 12 feet per minute that it shreds allows papers to go through at a good pace. However, for longer documents or higher shredding use, consider an upgrade to a faster model with a wider feed.
• This shredder only provides a level 3 security rating and doesn’t shred credit cards. For most small office and administrative use, this is safe enough. But if your shredding needs include medium to high risk documents, you may want to invest in a more secure model, such as the Destroyit 2360 or 2403 cross cut models also by MBM.

Overall, the Destroyit 2240 is a reliable choice for a personal or deskside shredder. The Safety Protection System and other automatic features make use safe and simple. Cross cut shreds safeguard your personal information and a lifetime warranty on the blades guarantees a long life for your machine. The MBM Destroyit 2240 is an excellent option for your next deskside shredder.

Crossing Borders $51.53 Given Christianity`s valuation of celibacy and its persistent association of sexuality with the Fall and of women with sin, Western medieval attitudes toward the erotic could not help but be vexed. In contrast, eroticism is explicitly celebrated in a large number of theological, scientific, and literary texts of the medieval Arab Islamicate tradition, where sexuality was positioned at the very heart of religious piety.In Crossing Borders, Sahar Amer turns to the rich body of Arabic sexological writings to focus, in particular, on their open attitude toward erotic love between women. By juxtaposing these Arabic texts with French works, she reveals a medieval French literary discourse on same-sex desire and sexual practices that has gone all but unnoticed. The Arabic tradition on eroticism breaks through into French literary writings on gender and sexuality in often surprising ways, she argues, and she demonstrates how strategies of gender representation deployed in Arabic texts came to be models to imitate, contest, subvert, and at times censor in the West.Amer`s analysis reveals Western literary representations of gender in the Middle Ages as cross-cultural, hybrid discourses as she reexamines borders—cultural, linguistic, historical, geographic—not as elements of separation and division but as fluid spaces of cultural exchange, adaptation, and collaboration. Crossing these borders, she salvages key Arabic and French writings on alternative sexual practices from oblivion to give voice to a group that has long been silenced.

Crossing Blood $14.63 Lucy Conyers lives with her brothers, mother, and stepfather in Tallahassee, in the last house in the white part of town, just before the pavement ends and the road turns to dirt. On the other side of a patch of woods are Melvina Williams, the Conyers` maid, her drunken husband Old Alfonso, and a yard full of kids, mostly boys — including Lucy`s obsession, the wild and handsome Skippy. This is the early 1960s and the battle over integration is brewing even in Lucy`s own home. Her stepfather clings to segregationist ways, while her independent-minded mother believes in the cause of civil rights. Lucy understands that there are unspoken lines she is not to cross, but her curiosity leads her to trespass on the forbidden world next door. There, she learns the hard realities of love, race, and hatred. The story, told convincingly and compellingly in the voice of its young narrator, examines the complex relationships between family members, men and women, blacks and whites. Crossing Blood is a novel of making promises and struggling to keep them, of unlikely bonds and forbidden ones, of love gone wrong and love everlasting.

The Woman at Otowi Crossing (Paperback) $15.34 Based on the real life of Edith Warner, who ran a tearoom at Otowi Crossing, just below Los Alamos, The Woman at Otowi Crossing is the story of Helen Chalmer, a person in tune with her adopted environment and her neighbors in the nearby Indian pueblo and also a friend of the first atomic scientists. The secret evolution of atomic research is a counterpoint to her psychic development. In keeping with its tradition of allowing the best of its list to thrive, Ohio University Press/Swallow Press is particularly proud to reissue The Woman at Otowi Crossing by best-selling author Frank Waters. This new edition features an introduction by Professor Thomas J. Lyon and a foreword by the author`s widow, Barbara Waters. The story is quintessential Waters: a parable for the potentially destructive materialism of the mid-twentieth century. The antidote is Helen Chalmer`s ability to understand a deeper truth of her being; beyond the Western notion of selfhood, beyond the sense of a personality distinct from the rest, she experiences a new and wider awareness. The basis for an opera of the same name, The Woman at Otowi Crossing is the powerful story of the crossing of cultures and lives: a fable for our times.

Crossing over $13.36 Ruth Irene Garrett was the fifth of seven children raised in Kalona, Iowa as a member of a strict Old Order Amish community. She was brought up with rigid rules and intense secrecy in a world where the dress, buggies, codes of conduct, and way of life differed from that of other Amish societies a mere one hundred miles away. Her community uncompromisingly avoided all interaction with the English — everyone who lived on the outside. As a result, Ruth knew only one way of life, one way of doing things.This compelling true tale offers a striking look inside a hidden community as a woman comes to terms with her discontent and ultimately leaves her family, faith, and the sheltered world of her childhood. She bravely crosses over to a new and unfamiliar reality in hopes of better understanding her emotional and spiritual desires. The result is a powerful and inspiring story — a search for meaning and the extraordinary lessons learned along the way.
