Theravada Buddhism is considered the oldest form of Buddhism, focusing on the historical Buddha, and is mostly practiced in Southeast Asia. In the early seventies, Theravada Buddhism was virtually destroyed in Cambodia amidst the rule of the Khmer Rouge, but has begun to re-emerge over the last few decades.
Stephen T. Asma taught Buddhist philosophy in post-Khmer Rouge Cambodia, while traveling extensively throughout the region. The Gods Drink Whiskey describes Asma's experiences of drinking with holy men and poets, encountering with overzealous Christian evangelical missionaries, witnessing a political assassination, and climbing mountains to visit ancient animistic temples. The end result is a compelling, darkly comic, never-before-experienced look into the clash of cultures in a little-known corner of our shrinking world. Stephen T. Asma is a professor of Buddhism at Columbia College in Chicago, Illinois. He is the author of the bestselling Buddha for Beginners (Writers & Readers, 1996), and the highly acclaimed Stuffed Animals and Pickled Heads: The Culture and Evolution of Natural History Museums (Oxford, 2002). "His forays into Southeast Asian politics, violence and globalizing trends, colorfully entertaining as travel writing, illuminate the ways in which Buddhism plays a primary role in the collective welfare of the region." - Publishers Weekly--Dallas Morning NewsBinding Type: Paperback

Great quality & easy to assemble!
Size: 7.9"D, Color: Ebony Black + Rustic Brown
Very impressed with the quality of this product. The wood is nice quality, instructions are easy to read and the item was easy to assemble. They even provided all of the necessary tools, including a screwdriver to assemble it. Looks great in my newly finished laundry room.

Great design for a kitchen sink organizer -- will not tip or accumulate water
We've had an Oxo kitchen sink organizer for years, and it's been fine, except 1) tall brushes (for example, Oxo brushes) make it tippy, stray elbows or imperfect placement of the brush would knock it into the sink and 2) it built up a soapy sludge in the bottom that that had to be drained and wiped down constantly. This item solves both issues perfectly.
Likes:
Size - I think it's about 5 inches deep, which is just right to fit the strip of countertop that runs behind the sink, up against the backsplash
Weight - The drying stone in the bottom gives the baskets some real heft, so there is no tipping it over by bumping a brush handle -- it really stays put
Drying stone -- The diatomaceous drying stone that slides into the bottom of the main basket is a great idea. These are porous stones that will absorb water and then allow it to evaporate fairly quickly. So far, it seems to be doing its job well. I'm sure the stone will need a wipe down now and then to stay clean, but no puddles of sludgy soapy water in the bottom is a big plus
Overall Design/Build quality -- The unit seems solid. It's a simple design, but there are no sharp edges or unfinished bits. Once in place it doesn't wobble a bit. I wasn't sure about the black powder-coated finish, but installed it looks clean and it's unobtrusive. I appreciate that the smaller basket for tall brushes sits on hooks and can be hung inside or outside the main basket. Ours sits inside, but there's plenty of room left over for sponges . And there's still room to stand up a bottle of liquid detergent or counter-top spray.
NOT SO LIKES
Nothing so far. I notice a lot of this style of sink organizer on Amazon, so presumably they're selling well. It's a great improvement over the older kinds.
Five big, clean, well-organized stars. Highly recommended.
