I've become a "Dancing with the Stars" junkie since Evan Lysacek has been on this season, so did a DWTS search, not expecting to find much. I was pleasantly surprised to find April 19 info. Most of the articles were related to Kate Gosselin and Pamela Anderson because they're such divas. Citation #31 talks about black holes dancing in pairs which, of course, has nothing to do with DWTS--or maybe it does since most of the DWTS articles were devoid of intellectual value.
I also did a more serious search (since I'm on library time) with the subject of carpal tunnel. The newest article is dated May 1, 2010 which is really new! Of the first 20, 18 were fairly technical, but later articles were more understandable. I did change the results to magazines and got more readable info.
Sometimes Proquest works well for me and sometimes it doesn't. Couldn't find much on rototillers a few days ago for a patron.
Have to go. Back later.

Hi, Cheerful, you are right about rototillers in ProQuest, even with using alternative terms. :( But it does have lots of other good stuff, as you noted. We think ProQuest expands libraries' magazine collections and can help fill some gaps. Just don't ask it about rototillers. Thanks for your comments!
