It was August 25, 2006, my first on-camera studio open for the CBS News broadcast 60 Minutes. Executive Producer Jeff Fager poked his head in the dressing room. Good luck, Brotha You've come a long way to get here. You've earned it.
...If only he knew. My mind flashed back to elementary school, when a therapist had informed my mother, I'm sorry, Mrs. Pitts, your son cannot read.
In Step Out on Nothing, Byron Pitts chronicles his astonishing story of overcoming a childhood filled with obstacles to achieve enormous success in life. Throughout Byron's difficult youth--his parents separated when he was twelve and his mother worked two jobs to make ends meet--he suffered from a debilitating stutter. But Byron was keeping an even more embarrassing secret: He was also functionally illiterate. For a kid from inner-city Baltimore, it was a recipe for failure.
Pitts turned struggle into strength and overcame both of his impediments. Along the way, a few key people stepped out on nothing to make a difference for him--from his mother, who worked tirelessly to raise her kids right and delivered ample amounts of tough love, to his college roommate, who helped Byron practice his vocabulary and speech. Pitts even learns from those who didn't believe in him, like the college professor who labeled him a failure and told him to drop out of college. Through it all, he persevered, following his steadfast passion. After fifteen years in local television, he landed a job as a correspondent for CBS News in 1998, and went on to become an Emmy Award-winning journalist and a contributing correspondent for 60 Minutes. Not bad for a kid who couldn't read.
From a challenged youth to a reporting career that has covered 9/11 and Iraq, Pitts's triumphant and uplifting story will resonate with anyone who has felt like giving up in the face of seemingly insurmountable hardships.

Non stick not good.
Size: 10-Piece Set, Color: Copper

Easy to clean,
Size: 10-Piece Set, Color: Copper
Oh, my! This cookware is amazing! It's heavy gauge aluminum so very doubtful it would ever warp as my last set of thin aluminum did. I like the steam escape holes in the lids. Very nice set and a great price. I'd highly recommend?

Great pans at excellent price
Color: Ivory
I waited way too long to purchase these pans. GAMECHANGER. I love the pans, they cook perfectly, no stick and cleanup, a spray and a wipe and spotless. I have purchased many pans that have let me down and ended up in the garbage. I love the beautiful white color also. Excellent price. I could go on and on…

Amazing deal!
Color: Linen Gray
This was my first time trying a ceramic pan, and I’ve only had these three days, but so far I am in love. I’ve made grilled sandwiches, scrambled eggs and fried shrimp with the tiniest bit of butter in the pan, and no sticking! Cleanup is so easy. Just wipe with a sponge, rinse and dry. They’re nice and heavy, so heating is fairly even. Nice stainless steel handles so they can be used in the oven. And I got three of them for just over $30 on a flash deal, which is insane considering the high quality. Great value for the money! Will have to see how they hold up. I did purchase new softer silicone utensils to keep the surface nice. And I’ve laid down the law to hubby… NO non-stick spray on these!

Absolutely as good as other brands!
Color: Linen Gray
A nice looking set of non stick pans! I have bought GreenPan and GreenLife? pans over the last 15-20 years. None have ever lasted more than about 3 years. I do cook a lot. These work as well and I like the price. Clean up easily. They have good heat distribution. Don’t know how long they will last, but for the price, it will be good. They are truly nonstick. Heavier than expected. Quality pans…not flimsy at all. I highly recommend these!
