Measure accurately and consistently, and you'll be giving your recipes a head start on working out the way you intended, every time.
Measuring cups sized to the top rim usually work better in obtaining exacting measures, since you can use a scraper, spatula or ruler to level solids.

 Pampered Chef Measuring Tools: Measure-All Cup 2225 Review at Epinions.com
I usually had to use that cup again later for other dry ingredients, which mean having to get it washed with Dawn, and dried, and ready to go again.
It used to be difficult for me to adjust it for measuring dry/solid ingredients at first, and I needed to use a twisting motion between the outer sleeve and the inner cup.
Oh, and because the plastic inner cup is prone to warping, do not use strong detergents or steel wool to clean it.

 Cup Measure & Excellent Product Data   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
The Adjust-a- Cup Measuring Cup is perfect for messy ingredients like shortening, peanut butter, honey, or heavy syrups, but you can use it with equally pleasing results with both wet and dry ingredients like milk and flour.
First, use it to measure a single item such as peanut butter: simply lift the outer, clear plastic sleeve until you see the desired measurement, fill, then (using the interior, aluminum canister as a plunger) push the ingredient out as you hold onto the plastic outer sleeve.
You can also use it to measure several ingredients at once: after filling with your first ingredient, move the sleeve up to the desired measurement of your second ingredient, fill, then continue until all ingredients are inside.
