Question: Just right for my 101 Mini Reverb

Perfect for Quilter Mini 101 Reverb. The case is a little bit larger, but there are two special holes in the pad that Mini 101 Reverb legs fit in. The rest space behind back panel is just enough for my 3m power cord from computer store. Everything fits perfectly, case is lightweight and compact, recommended.

Khaled Hosseini's "The Kite Runner" is a masterpiece. It's everything you'd ever want in fiction - enthralling, heart-rending, educational.  You'll learn more about Afghanistan in Hosseini's book than you will in similar works of non-fiction.  For example, I know that there was an Afghani fascination with kites (news reports focused on this when the country began to open up again after the fall of the Taliban).  But I never understood it until reading 'The Kite Runner.'  Hosseini explains it brilliantly, vibrantly.  The way it ties together the protagonists here - well, it sends shivers up my spine simply recalling it as I write here about it.
The first chapter of this book is the best writing I've ever seen - three sparse, sparkling paragraphs (the entire length of the chapter) set the stage for the book.  Its true beauty is slowly revealed as you make your way through the book.  Each time I completed another chapter, I'd go back and re-read the first chapter and realize that the meaning of another sentence had been revealed.  What a thrilling reading experience.  I pray 'The Kite Runner' get turned into a movie (it has been optioned by Dreamworks).

Question: Good amount of stretch, just wasn't the color I was hoping for.

5'10 175lbs average build.
I normally wear a 32x30 but from reviews I opted to go to my true size, 34x30. With the stretch of the fabric, I feel that it's an inch bigger on me. Slightly relaxed in the hip area means that I would really have to use a belt or I sage a bit lower in the hips. I prefer to have my clothes fitted and less baggy, so I was going to get these hemmed to my usual of 32x27 for a fit with little to no breaks in the pant legs with low top sneakers. The thigh area is closer to about 10" and a quarter with the leg openings being about 14.5". Take those measurements into consideration based on the name brand jeans you currently wear for comparison. For myself, I prefer jeans to about 14" even in the leg opening for a clean, fitted look.

I would have kept these jeans just the size is a bit more roomier than expected, I think I could actually just fit a 32x30. Also the color of the jeans in sunlight makes it more of a stone-light grey color to almost very light beige. I was hoping for more of a light steel grey kind of color.

I was really hoping for more discussion and information about The Philadelphia Experiment, and there really wasn't much about it in the book.
I found it disjointed and hard to read... As for the content - if you love to sit and listen to paranoid people who may be mentally ill and who love sci-fi, then THIS is the book for you!
It just gets stranger and stranger as you plod through it.

Question: Great product! I usually purchase otterbox cases

Great product! I usually purchase otterbox cases, but I saw this and couldn't pass it up. The price is great and before I bought this case, I read the reviews, which supported my decision of completing my purchase. This product does NOT disappoint. It is extremely durable (i'm clumsy), parallel to the all-mighty otterbox cases as far as durability, BUT this comes in MANY more colors options. I will continue ordering from this seller. I highly recommend to anyone with the Note 4.

Great, sturdy carabiners. Im a fireman and I use these to hold equipment on the outside of my bunker gear. Very useful pieces of equipment and for a good price as well.

Question: They enjoyed the cartoon very much

My kids saw the movie and wanted more.  They enjoyed the cartoon very much.

I am left with an impression of this book that differs from many glowing reviews, so here I share my opinion for the sake of balance.  For me, this story did not really come to life until I was at least two-thirds of the way through it, and the only part I really liked was that last third (the end).  Though that ending be sad or bittersweet, it was the only part that rang true for me and drew me in at all.  I'm sorry, but with that ratio I cannot honestly label it a "good" or "excellent" book.
 I don't feel Ms. Hand showed us the best of her talent with this installment.  I found much of the narrative and dialogue lackluster and uninspired.  I'm not sure why but, here, her writing was just not as poetic and convincing as it was in Unearthly.  I hardly liked any of the characters as well as I did in Unearthly, not even Tucker and Clara herself.  The only ones I really liked were Angela and Maggie, Clara's mom.  Well, and I must say Billy, too.  She rang pretty true compared to the rest.  For some reason the characters really remained flat for me for most of this book.  It's as if they were cardboard cut-outs standing in for a stereotype of who (what figure in our main heroine's life) they were supposed to represent. Like "I'm the real boyfriend, the jealous boyfriend" "I'm the Angel-boy who's better than you and I'm going to take her from you". (Because I am the one that's like her, and only I really understand her). "I'm the angry, ignored brother".  Please! Really?? I definitely did not find Christian, nor his constant presence, charming and appealing at all.  For me it was unrealistic and weird.  The story only really showed it's heart and came alive for me in the last third, when the major sad event occured.  I must say I did think the portrayal of how Clara handled this was pretty good, and I appreciate the way Christian was there for her at this point.
The end (temporary, until the next "chapter"), was logical and bittersweet at the same time.  It seems like the characters made the best, and the only reasonable choices they could for the near future.  Not until this ending did Hand manage to make Tucker and Clara's feelings really resonate for me and touch my heart.  I have always liked Tucker and kind of hope they end up together.  However, I cannot stress too much about what the author may have to do with Christian's character for that to happen.  Though you may disagree with my overall opinion of this book, if it helps make my point (to say) this installment did not quite make me care ENOUGH to be heartbroken one way or another with which way things go with the rest of this story.

It has been pretty great. A little more flimsy than I thought but that makes the typing more smooth. After only having it a week I am already finding that the corners of about 7keys are turning black. I am not sure why that is happening.

The underwear were MUCH smaller than they should have been.  Thankfully I returned them with no problem.  There's gotta be a better company that makes these.

Question: I Highly Suggest this author and this book if you have any interest at all in the BDSM lifestyle.

Fascinating read and very informative on the BDSM lifestyle. I love the way the author breaks down the different categories of  Dominant and Submissive, as well as breaking down the various styles of BDSM. I find that I am really learning a lot from this book that I never thought about when I thought about the BDSM lifestyle.

I work with performing artists in the area of healthcare ministry, but I am not an artist myself. Thus, this book has really helped me get out of my self-inflicted box of what I thought "Christian art" and "art by Christians" should look like. The book was recommended to me by the president of the arts ministry agency I serve with, and I would be neglectful if I did not pass the recommendation along. You will not find another book that that is so helpful as you wrestle with where the arts fits with Christianity. What a refreshment Steve Turner has provided. Now, BUY THE BOOK!

Great product just ordered my second set. If you are somewhat mechanically inclined order these and save yourself $150-200 and enjoy doing it yourself

Peter Gammons showed America why he is considered the best sportswriter of this generation.  Who better than someone born in Massachusetts to write a story about the illustrious Boston Red Sox?  He begins with THE SIXTH GAME.  For those uniniated, the Sixth Game is possibly the greatest game ever played in a World Series.  All the way from Carlton Fisk's triumphant home run to the damning Free-Agency created on Major League Baseball.  I know it sounds cliche, but Gammons truly hits a home run with this book.  Along the way, from 1975-1985, you meet the Red Sox and learn who they are.  Jim Rice, Bill "Spaceman" Lee, and Luis Tiant.  Bucky "Bleeping" Dent, Mike Torrez, and Joe Rudi.  Everybody important, and some that are not important, are covered in the book.  If you are a Sox fan, or simply a baseball fan, and you have not read this book, you are truly missing out.

Question: Mario Cart Does it Again

Mario Cart is one of the true classic games of all time beginning with the Super NES and Continued with the Game Cube. Just when you think they could not make the game any better Mario Cart for the Wii is just that. Better. What a fun game play, the steering wheel makes it feel like you are really in the driver's seat. Instead of turning the old game controller in you're as if it were a wheel now you actually have something to hold onto.

Of coarse all of the cast and characters are back along with some of the old race tracks from previous versions. And the new race tracks are fun and challenging. I love racing through the shopping mall. I love giving the wheel a shake while flying over a jump to do a mid-air trick. This game has it all for any age. Fun, fun, fun!

These are great for the beach, washing cars, and working in the garden.  Just hose them off!  Will order again!

I am so excited to have finally found a pair of boots that are both cute and functional.  I have not worn these boots long, but they seem very warm and comfortable from the little bit of time that I have worn them.  I did find them to be a bit smaller then I expected.  I usually wear a size 8 in most shoe and boot styles; sometimes an 8 1/2 for some tighter fitting dressy shoes.  I originally ordered the 8, but it was definitely too small.  But because Amazon is so awesome about how they handle their returns, I had the size 9 boots within 2 weeks.  And I love them.

I liked the fact that he had no stuffing but I didn't like the fact that the "hair" was easy to pull. Not a great quality toy. I had to return it.

I recently bought another SanDisk card that seemed off, black housing and only "MADE IN CHINA" stamped on the back, no SanDisk logo or serial number. I ran a speed test and on the card that was rated for up to 35MB/s it maxed out at 10MB/s read and write so I contacted Amazon and they made it right. That made me curious about this card that I had already had for over a year. So I tested it and being rated for 95MB/s I get 17.2 MB/s write and 19.2MB/s read.

Edit: SanDisk again confirms that my Extreme Pro card is genuine & tell me the slow read/write speeds are due to my card reader. I still advise you to avoid frustration free packaging as the SanDisk Ultra card I received was a counterfeit. Again, thanks to Amazon for allowing me to return it outside the standard time frame.

Question: philosophical and interesting

In Bound by Iron, Edward Bolme has written some unique characters in a plot with a surprising ending for this stand alone novel. In a story reminiscent of a John Grisham thriller, Bound by Iron begins with a murder and leads the heroes into a web of lies, deceit, and greed. Bound by Iron is the first novel in Eberron's Inquisitives series.

Bolme explores the themes of justice, honor and righteousness in this novel. Cimozjen is a paladin, a warrior of the Sovereign Host whose sense of right and wrong is strong. Minrah the journalist, on the other hand, is what is often called a "chaotic good" character. She does not do evil things, but will do whatever it takes to get what she wants, especially in pursuit of a story, even to the point of putting her companions in harm's way. Four, the warforged, provides a tabula rasa that the other two characters are trying to imprint with their own values. Each character walks away from the story being changed, for better or worse by their contact with each other.

I liked this Eberron novel. Some readers may find the dialogue a little contrived, but I didn't. The mystery aspect of it was simple, so fans looking for fantasy noir won't like this novel. It does give a soldier's eye view of some of the major events of the Last War on the Eberron world. Cimozjen and Torval's comradeship was a well-written aspect of the story, and in a way reminded me of Erich Maria Remarque's All Quiet on the Western Front in the way it delved into the mind of the front-line soldier, if in a more simplified way. Even with the philosophical aspect, it was still a good adventure story with lots of sword action. Bound by Iron is a fun reading diversion. Its unique characters, unusual ending, and detailed fight scenes gave hours of reading enjoyment.

Informative, but a little tongue in cheek, as well.  I like the point of view and the "don't get so serious" attitude about it all!

Question: Don't got one?  Whatcha waitin' for?

Cannot say how well this one works, but from all appearances it is the big brother of the original which I have used and love.  The double wall chamber pulling in overfire air works just as large industrial boiler furnaces.  An inspired design.  I have no doubt the big campfire stove will do the same yeoman service for me that the little brother has done for years.  No emergency kit is complete without one or the other; preferably both.

Question: Summer time table cloth

I have received so many compliments about this tablecloth. It's perfect for the summer and the patriotic holidays. It can be matched with many placements or table runners.  It's durable and can be cleaned easily. It doesn't wrinkle easily. The colors are just as brilliant as the picture. I recommend this because I know I will be repeatedly using it during summer months.

LOVING this so far! I just got them two days ago and so far, SO good.
I needed this because I detest writing with pencil (smudge marks! GAH) and even worse, pen scribbles over stupid mistakes!

The ink comes out fluidly like a gel pen but erases better than most pencils.
The fine tip at the end does a wonderful job of erasing, and it's rubber, which means that you won't need to replace it because it won't degrade every time you use it.
Since there are three pens AND plenty of refills, I've generously (and I say "generously" because I'm such a pen hogger) given my sister one and she LOVES it too. So glad I purchased this! I'll definitely be back for more when I run out.

Question: Good story. Captured my interest from page one

Good story. Captured my interest from page one. Good narrative about how parents of runaways are demonized by the media and public. Realistic portrayal of family dynamics and the utter navet of a teenage girl.

Yes, Robert Payne was present for a surprising number of significant historical events. He saw the Spanish Civil War, the Nazi takeover of Austria, the Japanese Conquest of Singapore, the Indian Partition riots, etc. And he met famous or infamous men ranging from Adolf Hitler to George Marshall, Mao Tse-tung to Theodore Dreiser. But it's a keyhole view of history being presented here so don't look for "the big picture." Given the author's undeniable skill with the written word, his talent for depicting scenery and people, reading this book is like looking through a box of photographs from long ago. Individual subjects are captured in telling detail but the broader backdrops must often be left to one's own imagination. Just like the reader will also need to overlook the author's references to his Green Dragon guardian throughout the narrative :-(

Question: Attractive and sturdy

So far, so good. Just received (ahead of time, quickly) and it seems very sturdy. We needed something this size for an open side of our deck that lead right to the yard and needed some definition but not another railing. We're growing some herbs this spring/summer, in addition to tomatoes we do every year. With an inner coir lining, this will hold 3+ basil, sage, dill, cilantro, etc The bottom shelf is equally as sturdy and can hold 2 to 3 clay pots, easily. The Mandalay planter was easy to put together (with included 12 metric screw/wrench). Rust coating will certainly hold up for at least a year and thereafter can be touched as needed, since it's your basic Rustoleum dark brown. Like it enough that we might order a second one, though it is a bit pricey.

Wow this was so interesting and intense. I just kept waiting for the other shoe to drop. It felt great with how nice things became for Connor and Paige. I hope Ash doesn't have to pay with his life after the deal he made. I guess we will find out in the next book.

Out of balance  -  Used one time and it went back!  Sorry, this terminator brand used to be a great blade company...... what happened?

This is a well researched book about how the Chicago School of Economics followers have attempted to undermine American Capitalism with the aim of allowing big businesses and ultra rich people make more money. The book shows how the Neo-Cons in the Bush Administration, and others, went to Chile and Argentina to disrupt their economy and brought ruin to those countries. The author shows how the Neo-Cons are attempted to do the same here in the USA with their shock and awe tactics. The narrative explains that their goal was to create a situation where large corporations like Halliburton could increase their value. This book shows how Capitalism can be subverted into a quasi-colonial system of value extraction from a society. The author is a true muckraker. Every citizen voter should read this book.

Question: The Best and Worst of a Tale of Two Cities

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. This is the opening famous line of A Tale of Two Cities. This opening sentence sets up a story of love, life,  friendship, and equality for the French citizens. This book  had a wonderful story line that brings many people together after setting  the reader up to believe they will never find out how these people connect.  The stories main character is Dr. Manette, he is the single character that  brings all of the others together. Based during the French Revolution, we  find out that Dr. Manette was a prisoner of the bastille for 18 years,  which later in the story gives him great authority over the French  citizens. His daughter, Lucie, is the golden hair girl that catches the  heart of all the men she meets. Her devotion to her husband, Charles  Darnay, brings her great sadness when he is imprisoned for his secret life  of being a French noble.  Darnay's family was the one that put Dr. Manette  in jail, and took the life of two innocent people, leaving a lonely woman  to fend for herself. She is Madame Defarge, who throughout the entire story  is trying to get Darnay and his family put to death by the guillotine.  After Darnay is sentenced to death only one man can save his life. Sydney  Carton, who looks like Darnay, takes his own life so that the love of his  life, Lucie, will be happy. He knows that she will never want him so he  feels the only thing he can give her is happiness. This book was very  enjoyable and exciting. Although it is rather wordy and the beginning seems  to be endless and boring. However,during the second half you learn how  everything ties together. Every chapter is needed in this book and the time  must be taken to read it thourouly to find out the exciting ending. The  dramatic ending gives a sense of saddness and relief all at once. Which is  why A Tale of Two Cities is a great book. Bringing love, friendship, and  the battle for equality during the French Revolution, together suceeds in  making this an excellent book.

Question: No Illusions about this book. A must read!

Love all of Cynthia Freeman'a books, and this was no exception.  I always hate to say goodbye to the people I get to know

I just cannot get enough of Randisi's character Decker, the bounty hunter with a noose on his saddle to remind himself that he had almost been hanged for something he didn't do. Thus, he only took the person in if he was sure they did the crime. This book has so many great characters in it that darned if it would not have made a great Clint Eastwood movie. As Clint is now a bit long in the tooth for the role it would take a smart alec like Depp or Downey Jr to pull it off but this Decker character defintely should be on film. Every one I read makes me look for the next. Love the character and the book!...shu

Walking with these on didn't hurt my feet at all,my other shoes usually leaves blisters on my feet after wearing them for couple of hours and to my surprise these boots didn't. The design is so stylish and the quality is great. I ordered taupe and the color is what exactly is stated. The height of the heels are just perfect for me. I would definitely recommend this product. I am so pleased with my purchase.

I received this product at a discount or free in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

Question: The best so far, cheap and better for the environment

I love that these are similarly priced (or cheaper) as other dishwashing tablets while causing less harm on the environment. I've been on the hunt and these are the best yet. It does a great job and ill be sticking to these for a while. I was previously using Honest dishwashing tablets and these are way better.

gave to a friend because the red is not as picture. Too bright in person

Question: Get 2 th POINT, Crystal!

Texting is an important avenue of communication for today's young people. David Crystal provides a lot of detail about the phenomenon-- history, statistics and glossaries, which certainly has it's place, but, like other reviewers have said, it gets a bit dry. Only later in the text, does Crystal get to the point--exactly what is this debate about which he is writing? A very simple one, as it turns out--does all this txting leading to a degradation of our standard language, particularly amoung school-aged children?  Skip to the last chapter for the answer. (NO spoilers here lol!)

Crystal begins with some description of ancient uses of abbreviated text, and the many examples from modern times which are a part of everyday speech, such as: pm, NATO, ASAP, and even Laser(!). This is interesting. Also the section where he describes a poetry contest within the parameters of txting. But definetly not so interesting for me to say, OMG!!1!!, this is sooo fastinating--I can't put this book down.  And his all-to frequent referring to future chapters ("well 'blah, blah, blah', but we'll talk more about that in chapter three") did not help hold my attention, either.

Basically Crystal takes on the fear--tantamount to a "moral panic"-- that txting is taking over and inexorably leading to lingual stupidity. A worthy addition to the discussion of txing as a phenomenon and it's potential effects on our society in general, and kids, specifically. It is perhaps ironical that, although the topic is interesting and the book itself is correctly written linguistically, is so bland and non-engaging that the reader is tempted to put it down, or to simply skip to the end to see "what the fuss is about".

The utility of David Crystal's book about txting is as a research-based rebutal to the hue and cry about the evils of this form of communication. The methods he employs as well as his expertise as a linguist lend authority to this book. To me, however, it was not so interesting as most of the fine novels which I have received from Amazon's "Vine" program. I would also be interested in some well-crafted sociological/philosophical discussion about how txting and technology in general impacts us as individuals and as a society.  Therein lies potential for thoughtful and interesting debate.

Fit great and is really cute, but I would've liked the pinstripes to be thinner. The thicker stripes makes it look more "costumish" and I wasn't sure if I looked like a gangster or a referee!

Question: To my immense surprise, this thing actually worked.

I did not purchase this at Amazon.  Rather, I got it from another retailer (for half the price) that formerly had a sizable tower named for it in Chicago.  Honestly, I did not have high hopes.  This was a stab in the dark that I figured would be pretty cool if it worked all right, but if it didn't, I could just return it.  I purchased it as a Christmas present for my 7 y.o. son, so he has not yet played with it, and I could update my rating in the future based on how it fares over time.  However, my main concern was whether or it the little balls would float and stay in place.  Based solely on that criteria, it was an unqualified success.  I put the balls in place, turned it on, and they did indeed float, and they stayed put.

Some caveats:

I did not test how well it glows in the dark because I really couldn't care less.  If someone is particularly interested in that, let me know, and I will test that.

The balls are tiny - maybe a inch or so in diameter.  Therefore, you'd have to have some skill to actually hit them, especially if you used the guns that were included, which shoot standard, Nerf-sized darts.  Basically, you'd be trying to hit something the size of an inch, maybe slightly larger, with something that's maybe half an inch wide.  They do include 20 balls, and you can use 5 at a time, so you could lose a few (and probably will) and still be fine.

There are two included guns (and darts for them), but I did not test them.  Again, I didn't really care about the guns because my son already has guns, so it doesn't make much difference to me if the guns are crap or not.  Granted,  they are far from the worst-looking guns that I've seen, but they don't appear to be anything all that special.  If you had no guns, I would imagine they'd be good enough.  If it's important to someone, though, I could test them out and see how good they are.

I don't know how powerful the fan is that's blowing the air, which causes the balls to float.  So if you had slightly larger balls, maybe ping pong balls and wanted to float them, I don't know if that would work or not.  I don't have any ping pong balls to try out.  The included balls are very light - probably Styrofoam.

The thing is a bit noisy.  It didn't bother me, and it certainly isn't like a jet plane or anything, but it's far from silent.  It's a loud-ish fan.

Each of the five spots for the balls has a little knob that allows you to increase or decrease the amount of air flow.  If you have all of them on at medium to high, each of the balls will probably float 5-7 inches or so (I didn't measure, and they don't all sit at exactly the same height).  However, if you turn some down, some of the others will float higher while the ones turned down will float lower.  So if you turned some of the jets off, you'd have more power to the others, which might enable you to use ping pong balls or maybe larger foam balls, though I don't know if larger balls would stay put.  As I said, I don't have anything I could use to test that out.

Let me say again that I don't know how durable this is.  It's lightweight and plastic - basically a shell around a fan with 5 openings.  If you start shooting at it, I don't know if it would tip over easily.  Maybe it will need to be strapped down to a chair or something.  At any rate, as-is, it works.  Does it deserve 5 stars?  If it ends up being durable, sure.  But I might have jumped the gun based solely on my surprise that it works at all.

Edit:  I forgot to mention that it takes 4 C batteries.  I haven't used C batteries since the '80s.  Do yourself a favor: buy AA adapters and use rechargeables. I don't know how long it lasts on 4 C batteries, but you don't want to have to be buying a bunch of expensive C cells, nor do you really want to pay through the nose to get rechargeable Cs.  Though if you already own some because you have devices that use Cs, by all means use your rechargeable Cs.  However, you'd probably be better off getting some cheap adapters that allow you to use AAs instead.

Excelent! Works properly and have a good signal. I buy it to use it in Peru and it couldn't work better. It works with 4G connection, the camera is very good It really full my expectations.

Question: Love what this pen does

Love what this pen does, but ink dried out after only a few uses. Not sure if it was just a bad batch or common.

Loved this book! This is the first book in the Clover Ridge series and in it we are introduced to two characters from extremely opposite ends of the spectrum of society. Gideon is an Amish man who suffered a horrible loss when his wife and son died. He is struggling with his faith, withdrawing away from his family and Amish support and basically waiting to die so that he can join those he loved and lost. Avery is a rich socialite, stuck in a world of trying to please her father and has yet to find someone who will love her for herself, not her money. At the beginning of the book, we learn that Avery caught her fianc cheating on her and realized that he was also just after her father's money. She wrecks her car in a snowstorm and Gideon rescues her. This is how they meet. It is just the beginning in a very captivating story. I had trouble putting it down. Both characters change and the love they begin to feel for each other is sweet. Amy Lillard develops the characters so well. I enjoyed watching them grow to love each other and wondered how it could all work out in the end. But it did, and was an extremely enjoyable journey.

Question: A Riveting Contemporary Masterpiece!

4.5 Stars | Hot Steam

Utterly addictive and extraordinarily entertaining, SUGAR DADDY is a riveting contemporary masterpiece that contains a story so intelligent, stirring, passionate and powerful that its profound effect lingered and lightened my step for days! I relished every single unforgettable word of Liberty, Hardy & The Travis Familys epic saga and stayed up well into the night feverishly driven to finish. And, though left with a supreme book hangover, I was swiftly soothed by the instant availability of the next two enticing books in the series, BLUE-EYED DEVIL and SMOOTH TALKING STRANGER, as well as the soon to be released BROWN-EYED GIRL this August! I simply cant wait to re-immerse myself entirely, again and again, in this intoxicating and wildly romantic series!

Bottom Line: Read this book!

Very nice I get lots of compliments on this choker necklace, you can make it any length you want.

Question: Good quality backboard: Easy installation

I installed my backboard to an old spalding pole. Easy to instal: directions were clear in my opinion. I did not have any issues. I read many reviews concerning the installation and I was puzzled by the customers' issues. So I gave it a try, the worse that could have happen was to send it back.
The kids played and played with no problems.
 I would recommend this product.

If you sweat a lot, do not purchase this watch. It is absolutely LESS THAN water resistant.  Had it for five months. All I do is run it (Not in the rain).

Question: This was excellent, unexpected read

This was excellent, unexpected read.  The two brother protagonists are morally flawed characters, but given another set of circumstances and time wouldn't become the monsters that they became.  It is a close look at the results of  Milgram experiment, really, though it is never mentioned of course, as it asks the questions that if your life, family and purpose were coopted by evil authority figures, would you be able to sacrifice it all to maintain your soul.  This the story of two who did not, and how their lives were ruined anyway by what was seeming the only thing logical course to take.  Well written, a page turner, and much to think about.  An easy 5-star rating.

Question: Franken's Humor Makes Politics Interesting

Al Franken tells us about his life as a comedian, then as a member of Saturday Night Live. The dynamics of the show and how they worked to get an episode ready--long and hard.

His relaying his first political campaign to be a Senator from Minnesota is telling and enlightening. Moreover, it makes one rethink any political ambitions they may have. Politics is dirty and not for the faint of heart. Here are no boundaries any more.

Franken's book is more readable than most politicians' because of his humor. It makes what would be a insomnia cure a great read.

Question: If you like Tim Burton or Neil Gaiman mixed with beautiful storytelling ...

Intriguing story-telling and an interesting art style, it's strangely heartwarming and a must read for fans of manga and its Gothic art style. If you like Tim Burton or Neil Gaiman mixed with beautiful storytelling and incredibly like-able characters, I highly suggest you pick this series up. My only gripe would be that I wish there was a bigger sized version of these books because sometimes it's hard to see all the little details on each panel, but that's a minor gripe. I'll be following this series until it's completion because it really stands out and is as beautiful as it is interesting.

I'm a late comer to Fever Ray. I discovered her through the theme music to the recent Vikings series. I love the entire album.

Question: Great Savings for Brake Discs!

Shipped as promised. The discs were easy to install and fit perfectly! I am always happy to save some money by doing the work myself!! Great product.

I've been doing Drupal 6 development intensively the last fourteen months and this book has been an essential companion. I have a few Drupal 6 books and this is by far the best one of all for these reasons:

*Pros*

- it covers all the key subjects very thoroughly with good code examples
- excellent clear writing style
- it is the work of one author which means it has a good learning progression unlike more recent drupal books which seem to be collections of essays on various subjects
- serves perfectly as a reference book
- good print and layout
- it's a book for 'developers' i.e. it has programming solutions rather than just pointers to contrib modules

*Cons*
I have to be really picky here but if pushed for cons I'd like to have seen a section on managing different environments and deployment.

I considered knocking a star off for this point but when you compare this book to the others on the market, it really dodes deserve those five stars. If you're a developer who really wants to understand Drupal 6 and get into module development, in my opinion this is the only book you will need.

Question: Classic Canterbury, but too formless

This album is made up of some '73 demos (which actually sound pretty good,  liner-note protestations about sound quality notwithstanding) and some  radio recordings from '74 and '75.  (Oddly, the two '74 tracks are mono).  The playing and musicianship are first rate.  However:  Dave Stewart  pointed out that he left National Health at one point because Alan Gowen  wanted the band to move in a more "free" direction.  Hearing  this, I can understand those protestations.  The compositions are lacking  in depth and complexity, with perhaps the exception of the title track,  which is only 2 minutes long anyway.

The perfect minimalist wallet to hold cards. A big step up from what I used to use - a rubber band. Holds card securely and access is easy. You can put a few folded bills between the two sections but I prefer to just keep cash in my pocket next to the wallet. I've had mine for two or three years with minimal wear.

Question: ... receiving my order because it did NOT smell anything like what I know to be Nag Champa

I *almost* didn't even open the box and wanted to return it immediately after receiving my order because it did NOT smell anything like what I know to be Nag Champa. I'm glad I actually did open the box and try it. It turned out that there was a "sample box" of "Golden Era" included in the sealed box which I think was the source of the odd soapy smell and just clash of fragrance . It wasn't until I started to burn the Nag Champa that the smell actually came through. Even the bag that held the Nag Champa was tainted with the sample smell.
Such a relief...I really didn't want to do a return and try to re order again...

Great weapon!  Yet there were no detailed instructions on how to cover the blade with the blood of Isis members.  But, I've heard our USMC boot camp can teach you how.

Question: Just Try to Keep Your Feet Still

Ok, like, this is really engaging music.  Ok.  But please, please, don't ride up to the elementary school with your two young kids to drop off your 5 year old to Kindergarten in the morning with the window rolled down and Spank Rock blasting through your Bose's wearing a big 'ole gold chain with a Dollar sign pendant with diamond studs throughout it.  Take if from me, your kid's school principal as well as the other parents won't appreciate it all that much and they just might serve you up with a restraining order and make you have to drop your kid off like 5 blocks away or at least out of earshot from your car stereo.  Look at it this way, its the way I'm trying to get my 5 year old to look at it, the extra exercise from the walking will do him some good and if it comes down to it...just give him some headphones with Spank Rock loaded up on his little Itunes so he'll be head bopping and body popping all the way to K-garten, boy!  Spank Rock is that good to launch him to coolest kid in school status but be warned, lyrically we are talking like the 2Live Crew teritorry.  The words are kinda nasty is alls I'm trying to say.

All the music is way catchy.  Think of it like a mash up of M.I.A. (without all the political-charged lyricism) and the nastiest house hip hoppers around and you have something close to Spank Rock.  The bass will serve you well here.  It's off the charts boi!!

Tracks like track 6, "Bump," lands you squarely in Gorillaz teritorry.  But whereas the Gorillaz are arty and the lyrics are intelligent with Spank Rock you don't have to think, shut that mind off, and groove my friend.  Get the bootie shakin' boi!!!  There's no way you can't dance to this.  You'll jump up right outta your chair, like I'm doing now, and impersonate Tom Cruise in Tropic Thunder.  It's that good, boi!!!

At about the 3 minute point in track 6, there's a female rapper featured.  Who really knows who she is but she's darned good, boi!!! She takes over like Lil' Kim or Missy and brings down the house, boi!  It's a album highlight but don't take my word for it, listen to it your danged self!  But hail my words homey, if you are adverse to language of the gutter variety, stay away from this.  K, Moms and Pops?  Peace out.  ...mmw

Quiet fan, and we like the LED lights and it looks good,  but doesn't seem to move the air like we had hoped in our 7' x 8' small full bath. With the house cooled to 76* in July, we need to leave the door partially open to keep the mirror from steaming up.  When it was professionally installed, it was vented just 3 feet through an outside wall. Holding toilet tissue to each side, one side draws enough to keep the tissue in place, while the other side wants to fall away.  We just expected better air movement, and this seems average.

Question: A great idea that didn't work.

These things just burn the tortillas, a complete waste of time and microwave energy.

Upon receiving my white metal garment rack I was pleased to find that it was packaged very carefully. The rack was covered with bubble rack and placed in a box, and then the actual product box was placed in a separate shipping box to insure that the garment rack would get to my house without any issues. When I opened the box the garment rack was in perfect shape, no missing paint or dents.
The garment rack came in six pieces. I am not very handy when putting together furniture, but putting together this garment rack was a piece of cake. Without instructions and the help of the wrench that comes with the products I was able to get this garment rack put together in under 10 minutes. A few personal tips when putting together this garment rack would be to make sure that all of the bolts are tightened and to put the side poles together before adding the top piece to the garment rack. I found that it made it easier to put the rack together.
After completing the installation process I was able to finally enjoy my chic garment rack. The rack stands sturdily and holds about twenty five hangers with clothes on them comfortably. The shelf on the bottom is perfect for shoes.
The best part about this garment rack is the style. It is very chic and it is easy to move. It looks elegant and can bring a beautiful touch to any room.

Question: I did order what I thought was a "snug" but comfortable size. WRONG

For buyers, regardless if swimmers believe it is too small/just right, need to realize that this is a COMPETATIVE swimsuit.  Do not fool yourself and think, "well, I'll definitely be considered fat if I order a 38" suit".  ORDER IT.  That being said, swimsuits, regardless of competition or recreation, should not dig into your flesh and mark your skin to the point you have every stitch mark on your buttocks, thighs, and shoulders.  Your butt should not resemble a large muffin top, either, even if you are 100 lbs. and have a tiny butt.

Yep, I did order what I thought was a "snug" but comfortable size.  WRONG!  Order one size up--seriously.  Order.  One. Size.  Up.  Now I have a suit that is comfortable, but doesn't cause any drag.  Maybe triathletes would think it was huge because I'm not in pain, but comfort is still my goal when I do 75 laps in the pool.

FYI, the suit may be lined, but if you're cold...

Essentially, this suit is designed to fit more snuggly and not as flattering as a bikini, but be functional.  However form meets function.  If your body type does not fit this swimsuit, don't punish yourself.  Try another style or brand out there.  Speedo is NOT the end all be all.

I initially gave this a 4 star and loved it. However after only 6 months it has died and will not even come on!!!

Question: Great price for basic 600 watt grow light system

Received this product today.  Took seven days to get here, but it got here in good shape.  Packaging was good and neither bulb was broken.  Wing reflector was very slightly bent but easily bent back into shape.

Not planning on using it yet so I put it together to make sure everything worked.  The cord that goes in the back of the ballast barely goes in far enough to connect properly and where it plugs into wiggles a little.  Seems it should be more stationary and the plug should connect to it more reliably and easily.  Hoping that won't lead to a problem in the future getting it to connect.  Would also like to see an on/off switch rather than needing to use a timer or pull the plug out of the wall.  Giving it five stars despite those two minor complaints, as I don't think they are big enough issues to downgrade the rating.

If you are looking for something with a heavy duty reflector this isn't for you, but if you want an economical option as I do to grow a few vegetable plants during winter, this might very well fit the bill.  I paid $116.05 with free shipping (from California to Ohio), which is better priced than other brand names that look virtually identical to me other than the coloring and name.

A couple of notes:  1) You do have to assemble the light fixture to the reflector using screws and wingnuts, which is easily done.  They provided one extra screw and nut in case one is damaged or lost.

2) Since I'm not hanging it up yet I placed the reflector upside down on my bed to test the bulbs and ballast.  You have to be careful if you do that because the end of the bulbs, especially the larger bulb (metal halide), will clang down onto the reflector when it's upside down.  So gently lay that end of the bulb down until it rests on the reflector, then turn on the ballast to test the bulb.  It'll take a couple minutes for the bulbs to fully brighten.  And the directions say to have it set to the highest wattage before turning it on, then after a few minutes dim it to one of the lower settings (250 or 400 watts) if you wish to.  I set mine to the 600 watt setting not the Super Lumen setting before I plugged it in.

3) Protect your eyes.  These are definitely not bulbs you want to be around without eye protection, and you certainly don't want to look directly at them.

4) Back in the 90's a friend of mine had a 1000 watt ballast that hummed fairly loudly, and it was pretty large.  This ballast doesn't hum, although the fan does kick in as soon as it's turned on, but it's not loud at all.  And it's much smaller than my friend's was.  Of course this is only 600 watts so it would be smaller anyways, but it seems the technology has improved where they can be made smaller, lighter, and much quieter.  Was glad that it didn't hum, as I almost didn't buy it because I didn't want to hear that all the time.

Once I put it to good use on my winter plants I'll edit this if I have any problems with it.

Edit:  Everything's still working fine so far, however I'm reducing this to 4 out of 5 stars because the connection of the power cord with the back of the ballast is touchy.  Move the ballast at all and it's likely to lose connection with the cord, and the light goes out and has to stay off for awhile to cool down before plugging back in from what I understand.  The power cord plugs into the wall fine, the connector in the back of the ballast just has a touchy connection with it.  I still recommend this product as a cheap alternative to the more expensive ones.  After I've had it for awhile I'll try updating this again.

American V felt like a finished album.  You could hear the age and death on John as he sang the songs, with a Biblical, concrete feel.  EVERY SONG felt finished, solid, and stood alone as JOHN as anything he'd ever put out.  This album didn't convey that feeling.  Waiting, and being put off again and again, I expected VI to blow my mind wind open.  This didn't happen.  That being said, I thoroughly enjoyed this album.  My problem with the album is not that the songs aren't good. That isn't true.  But coming from an Audio Engineer, (That's Music Recording and Production guy) I feel that the album wasn't finished.  Tracks feel bare. I don't mind minimalism, after all, I love his early stuff, where it's just him, Luther, and Marshall playing together.  But these tracks feel like somebody put in all the right stuff, and then decided to mute tracks at random, giving each track almost a demo like feel.  This works for some of the tracks, but it makes me uncomfortable to hear it across the entirety of the album.  Part of the greatness of IV and V was the arrangement of the songs.  Some songs were stripped down, some had lush orchestrations, and each one was tasteful and WORKED.  I feel like some of the songs here would have benefited greatly from those orchestrations.  Again, I stress that I have enjoyed this album so far, and I reccomend it to my Johnny Cash friends.  Just don't expect the same feel as the previous albums.

Question: It is good for the price.

Got this mouse a few years ago for playing games on my PC. It performed rather well in Team Fortress 2, Skyrim, and Borderlands 2. It was the best budget gaming mouse I could find at the time. Its not without its flaws, however.

This is a Laser Mouse, and anyone who knows anything about Optical Mice knows that laser mice often have acceleration problems. I didn't encounter that too badly with this mouse, however, the laser sensor was extreme picky about what kinds of surfaces it would work on the best. I ended up using a stick-on 3M laser mousing surface, but when dust got into the textured surface of the pad the mouse would act weirdly. Later on the cord developed a nasty short inside the housing.

Turns out the cord isn't mounted to the chassis of the mouse at all, but can freely move in and out. Over time, the flexing of the cord worked the soldering loose, and the mouse stopped working properly.

That was the only fatal flaw for this mouse. The cord wasn't secured well, and for a mouse that's supposed to be for gaming that's a problem. If you're just using this for web browsing its a good mouse, its cheap, and gets the job done. if you want a cheap gaming mouse go with one from the Elekcity brand.

This is my third time having issues with figures from this game.  I love the game.  I love the Durani.  But again the figures arrived damaged or incomplete.  In this case the winged preserver was missing it's hand.  I'm fine if I do something dumb and break my figures, but I at the very least expect them to show up and actually be constructed correctly.

Question: Must read for all legal junkies.

Good book as John Grisham always delivers. The ending made me both smile and cry.  I already knew that Mississippi was the worst state in the nation.

Rick Atkinson's An Army at Dawn (AAAD) is an account that, from a strongly American perspective, describes how the U.S. contributed to the successful expulsion of the Axis forces from North Africa, the first stage in the Allied liberation of Europe in World War II.  AAAD is the first of a planned trilogy, with forthcoming books focusing on Italy and then the drive across France to Berlin.

Atkinson, a journalist, restrains himself from too many editorial comments, focusing instead on a straightforward description of the facts of the various battles and strategies.  His main indulgence is a propensity to point out the flaws in almost every battle plan, which (if he is correct) produced many unnecessary casualties.  One of the main strengths of AAAD is that Atkinson looks at the war from all levels, from FDR & Churchill puffing on their smokes and pontificating after a four course dinner served on fine linen and china, to the sleep deprived shell-shocked infantryman on the front lines.  Atkinson's heart lies with the soldier in the trenches, which is a completely reasonable place to put his sympathies.

I most enjoyed the various war strategy discussions, especially FDR & Churchill's momentous Casablanca Conference.  The strains experienced by the alliance, and the challenges of winning over the German-controlled Vichy French, who initially (and in some cases very bloodthirstily) fought the U.S. and U.K. armies who were trying to liberate them, were enlightening and have direct parallels in current world events.  There are many lessons from AAAD that can be applied not only to current events, but also to the world of business:  the challenges of getting people from different cultures to form cohesive teams, the importance of clear communication, the need to focus and concentrate one's forces, and the motivation required to get people to make huge sacrifices to achieve a goal.  My main complaint about AAAD is that I felt Atkinson spent a little too much time providing a blow-by-blow account of various battles and precisely how various hills were attacked:  this made the book somewhat slow going, and detracted from the other more important issues in the book.

I'm not at all familiar with the vast trove of World War II histories (an extensive bibliography is provided, and Atkinson does appear to have done exhaustive research, and quotes at length from soldier's diaries and letters), but I would say AAAD is deserving of the Pulitzer Prize for history.  World War II is a monumentally important event in U.S. history, and AAAD deserves to be read by American citizens seeking an understanding of how our country contributed to the liberation of Europe, and just what was required to do so.  As Atkinson says, it arguably is the greatest story of the 20th century.

Question: My wife put one of these on and she did an great job at it

I bought these for my wife. These were a fraction of the cost at the retail store from one of the major phone companies. My wife put one of these on and she did an great job at it, better than I could ever do. She is a satisfied customer with these. We would recommend.

Over the last 3 decades I've owned 3 or 4 different versions of J.S. Bach's greatest masterpiece, all of them great.

Baroque music--and Bach--were eclipsed into obscurity in the early 1800s as romantic symphonies became the musical rage--until a famous 1829 revival of the St. Matthew Passion by Felix Mendelssohn showed Berliners what they'd forgotten. Discovering it was an equally electric revelation for me.  (That's how I came to own multiple versions.)

This 1959 Karl Richter/Bach Münchener Orchester version remains the enduring gold standard so far as I know. (There are too many others to buy them all.)

My only gripe was the fragility of the CDs themselves.  My first set was left in a 5-disk CD changer (with 2 other CDs) during a long distance move.  The other CDs suffered no noticeable damage, but all 3 St. Matthew disks looked and played as though they'd been sandblasted.  Replacing them was expensive, but necessary.  When it's your all time favorite musical experience, substitutes just won't do.

Question: Great package for my LG VU!

The wall charger, car charger, and cable works perfectly. I've had them for a month now and have no problems with it. And you get it an unbeatable price!

I wrote a review for the 12V very similar unit. This product has great potential, but is very light duty. It fails either by jamming every other nail or the spring retraction mechanism malfunctions.

I would estimate a life of between 1000-2000 firings before it breaks. This is assuming you get a "good" unit. Most will never use it this much, so they may get away with it.

If you have to do flooring and and need to pull up the baseboards and then reattach, this will probably do the trick. Maybe a chair rail. Beyond that understand that this tool will probably fail. I had a bunch of them and they all went back due to issues.

I'm giving it 2 stars because they should tell people it is for occasional use and its not a good fit for the price. This tool cost almost $200 when I bought it, but the good point is the company had no problem refunding my money when it broke. They couldn't even repair it.. I wanted to keep the tool! I also treated it well and it was never dropped. After 1200 nails the tool looked new.

Forget repairing it, after the warranty, the assembly cost over $100 [..](entire guts gets changed), and no warranty if you DIY. This is a  disposable tool.

Its a shame how these Chinese tools are expensive, low quality, and virtually disposable.  They probably cost next to nothing to make, and they figure many will just use it a few times and never have an issue.

Question: Performs the same as Ryobi P108

Easy statement, and this time it's backed up with testing metrics.  I took a Ryobi P108 battery and ran it in my leaf blower, then ran the Energup P108 in the same blower.  I timed how long the blower ran from full charge to low-voltage shutdown.  The Ryobi battery lasted 21 minutes.  The Energup battery lasted 22 minutes.  This is less than 4% difference in an unscientific test, so I have to rank them as equivalent.

Cute but needs more of an arch support. Also the Velcro needs to be the whole length of the strap. Cannot be worn by someone with wide ankles or swelling. That is why I buy adjustable footwear.

Question: A well written story with strong characters and a story that made me happy to have found this great work

"Into the Woods" was a story I thought I had figured out however as the story progressed I slowly started to realize what Andrew Broe had crafted before me. A well written story with strong characters and a story that made me happy to have found this great work.

If you are looking for a story that is steady, descriptive and unravels slowly with each chapter, than "Into the Woods" is a great choice.

I hope to see some more writings from Andrew Broe, this proved a great imagination and ability to bring those ideas to the page.

I received my Bamboo Set ahead of the scheduled time and opened the package and was delighted with what I saw. Six sturdy Bamboo Utensils that felt good in my hand and added to my enjoyment of cooking. They were well fashioned, heavier than my old ones and were very handy in doing the stir fry I made for our dinner. And most important they clean up easily. I am going to give them as Christmas gifts this year.

Question: I really really like BJM; I listen to them a lot

I just want to balance out the overwhelming praise for this very short, seemingly off-hand album.  I really really like BJM; I listen to them a lot.  BUT, compared to Aufheben and Revelation, this album has much less creativity and, in my opinion, less catchy songwriting.  Some people consider this album some sort of 'return to form,' but be warned, it is not interesting.  As always, I like the tones, and vibes of the songs, but this release just doesn't feel inspired.  I HIGHLY recommend Aufheben and Revelation as the examples of contemporary BJM; they may be weirder, but they cram sooooo much more creativity in, and you get a whole album instead of a 'mini-album thingy' haha.  I don't think this is bad per se, but if I had all my BJM albums lined up, I'd pick it last.

well acted but way to much drama, it's like a TV version of a radio soap opera!

Question: I am so sad because this broke

I am so sad because this broke. It only lasted 4 months. The leather is still in great shape, but the plastic piece that holds the cards completely broke and fell out. I guess it could still function as a wallet without card storage, but I won't be using it anymore. I loved the idea of being able to flip through my cards, but I think the design is flawed... The card holder should have been stronger material and secured better. I wish I could return it and get my money back. The color wasn't quite as pink in person - it looks more brownish.

It's impossible to beat the quality of build and sound these speakers add to your 5.1 or 7.1 system for the price.  They are well designed and easy to install.  It comes with a stencil for cutting the hole in the sheet rock.  My only complaint is that more content should have surround sound.  Far too often these speakers are not utilized, especially on TV shows.

Question: Movie was good fun, but the book was so much better.

I read the book so the movie was a bit of a disappointment in that the book was somewhat chopped (hate that it wasn't set in England - why do all things have to take place in New York?!), and I think it kind of combined the first two books of the series into one. There was not much character build of anyone really except Becky and partly of Luke, and I didn't feel the bond of friendship between Becky and Suze like I did when I read the book.

The shopping aspect was well played, but in the book, even though Becky comes off as annoying at times, she redeems herself and becomes a loveable character. The movie's Becky was certainly cute and very funny and silly (love the fan dance), but I didn't think she became as loveable as she should have been so that the audience would really want to root for her to come out on top. She seemed more crazed and out of control than I remember in the story.

The Luke Brandon character was good, played by Hugh Dancy. He was charming and attractive and took on being a hero to Becky quite well. By the way, I love Hugh Dancy.

I wish the movie had been just like the book (but that never happens much anymore really), so I appreciate it for what it is...I'll still buy the DVD.

I first encountered an early version of this book about 6 years ago on Authonomy.com, so I was happy to find it (and its sequels!) available for purchase. This is a long book but rarely slow, filled with action, cultural detail, and well drawn characters. The opening expertly integrates setting with character with action, as young Prince Falath is caught in an avalanche and nearly goes over a cliff -- and almost wants to. Hints of tension in his family and the kingdom to which he is reluctant heir, as well as to the malady that is slowly killing him, hooked me and kept me turning the pages. A chance encounter with Airen, a mysterious young healer from a foreign land, solves one of Falath's problems but introduces another: sorcery is capital offense in the land of Dinith, and the royal family (including Falath) has strange abilities that must be kept secret. A coup soon has Falath on the run with his kinsman Rollo and their new friend Airen. A series of captures and escapes keeps the tension high as our heroes encounter new allies and enemies. When Falath learns that more than the fate of his own kingdom is at stake, he joins Airen's quest to return the lost piece of the Firelord's Crown to the healer's homeland, where Falath can wait the opportune moment to return and claim his throne. This first volume ends with a perhaps-literal cliffhanger, leaving the reader panting for more. Fortunately, several of the planned 5 volumes are already available, so you won't have to wait.

Question: Halloween with Tigger!

This inflatable Tigger came to me quickly and at a great price. I can't wait to display him for my trick or treaters! He is so adorable. At just about 4 feet tall he will be a sure hit. HE must be displayed indoors only though, and I didn't realize that when I purchased him. So he will be pretty big to place in my bay window. But that's alright, he will be sure to be noticed. Halloween isn't just for kids anymore. Afterall Halloween is Tigger's favorite Holiday don't you know?

Question: Good for intermittent use.

Nice size and quite powerful.  At 12v/1.4a, it will dead lift about 10 oz.  Once it pulls in, it's nearly impossible to disengage by hand.  It will pull in down to about 8v/1a (with a load under an ounce).  I know this because I did not want it to overheat and knew that it would be dissipating a LOT of heat with 12v/1.4a flowing through it (17 watts!).  So I used a 9v transformer to actuate it.  But even if you run it at 9v, it will still get REALLY hot if you keep it energized a long time.  After about 5 minutes at  9v, it got up to 220 F!  It nearly cooked my finger when I touched it.  It occurred to me to use a thermal IR gun for future tests (which is how I know the actual temperature).  The solenoid needs to be mounted on a chassis or even a heat sink if you plan to keep it energized for a long period of time.  My guess is that it was designed to produce a single, powerful actuating pull rather than to pull and then hold.  It is rather noisy when it pulls in, most solenoids are, unless they were specifically designed to be quiet (at were the ones in the old reel-to-reel tape decks).  With those caveats, I give it five stars.

This is a perfect read for those nights when you want to read for a half hour before going to sleep. The format lends itself for additional volumes. This is a must read for trivia enthusiasts.

Question: A Kaleidoscopic, Hypnotic Trip Through Surreality...

RICOCHET is Tim Dry's first published novella and is my first taste of the author's work. Before embarking upon a read of the book, I did a little research into the man (also as a precursor to my interview with Tim, which can be found on The Ginger Nuts Of Horror website); I discovered that Tim has pretty much done it all, often twice. He is the quintessential 'Renaissance Man', a Jack-Of-All-Trades, but master of many. He has acted in films, played in numerous music ventures and taken professional photographs of some very famous people. And now, following some short stories published in a few very well received anthologies and two autobiographies/memoirs of his time in the film industry, Tim has turned his hand to this longer work of fiction...

First off, it's worth noting that RICOCHET is not one overarching tale; rather, it is a series of mostly unconnected vignettes, some no longer than the average flash fiction piece, a few others coming in at short, short story length. Interspersed between each...scene...is what looks like either headline grabs from a mystical newspaper, or the chapter headings you often see in older works of fiction; yet these one or two sentence efforts have no bearing on the following tale. What strikes me most about the...collection (?), is that no two pieces are alike. The variety on display is astonishing, not least with the inclusion of the seemingly throwaway 'chapter headings'. Each piece feels as though it could have been worked up into a much longer story, while at the same time they work as they are. As to the stories themselves...

It's hard to know where to begin. I don't want to give a rundown of the contents because, I feel, part of the joy in reading is discovering what each piece contains. What I will say is, it's clear that Tim's experiences and love of films and the movie industry loom large. There are references to a plethora of films and actors, many familiar to me, some not so much. Some are subtle little references buried within the work, others are almost the whole tale itself. After film, music is the second clear love, with a couple of pieces that follow brief moments in the lives of John Lennon and Jim Morrison. Tonally, the stories range from the absurd to the sardonic to the deeply emotional and again, part of the fun is not knowing exactly where each piece is going...

Ah, f**k it...personal favourites include the man who buys pieces of prose like a drug user, getting high on syntax and grammar; Rupert Bear and Bill Badger's weary conversation in the aftermath of a violent battle for Nutwood (I'd LOVE to see this expanded); the two young brothers who discover something strange on the beach which has tragic consequences for one; the aforementioned separate flashes into the minds of Jim Morrison and John Lennon; and many, many more.

I've seen the novella and Tim's writing compared to the likes of William Burroughs and Hunter S. Thompson for its seeming stream of consciousness. Now I haven't read either of those fellows, but my reference points were closer to Jeff Noon, Robert Rankin and even the dry, slightly melancholic humour of Douglas Adams. But Tim has a voice all his own and there's no denying the absolute vibrancy and expansiveness of the imagination on offer here. I, for one, would love to see what the man can do with a full length work and it's heartening to know that there are a few more 'RICOCHET' books planned. Great stuff and I look forward to the next instalment.

Lights are holding up great with 6 months of use so far. As with any light just make sure all exposed bolts are tight. I haven't had any moisture building up in mine

Good laces, but they're fatter than I thought they would be.  I was looking for something more similar to what you find in dress shoes, but they look fine after I started using them and after about 6 months, they're not showing any signs of wear.  I bought extra pairs because I tend to wear out the laces on one particular pair of shoes, but they may not be needed, at least not any time soon.

Question: roo case for xoom tablet

Very good value.  Holds the xoom well, a few papers/business cards and a pen or stylus.  I would highly reccomend this case.

This book, by Jules Bourgoin, is justly famous for its treatment of geometric pattern in Islamic art, but it is not a good book to begin a study of the subject. If you are a beginner to the subject, and want a book to get you started drawing the geometric based Islamic designs, the best place to start is probably Eric Broug's 'Islamic Geometric Patterns.'

There are no surviving Islamic source texts describing how Islamic patterns were actually created. Perhaps none were ever written. All the books now available on the subject are largely surmise. Bourgoin's book, first published in 1879, is one of the earliest written on the subject. Another early book is E. H. Hankin's 'The Drawing of Geometric Patterns in Saracenic Art', which was published in 1925. Bourgoin and Hankin had very different views on how Islamic geometric patterns were designed. Hankin thought that the patterns were designed using only a compass and and straight edge, and that has become the majority view. Bourgoin, on the other hand, thought that these patterns were mostly designed using grids, an approach that probably was also used by Celtic artists in designing such works as the Book of Kells and the Lindisfarne Gospels. If Bourgoin, or Hankin, was right, I can not say. Both methods seem to work, and each as some advantages. But it is important to understand that different authors take different approaches, because if you do not understand that you may become confused over the discrepancies.

A look through Bourgoin's book will show that each pattern is placed over a grid (shown in dotted lines), and each different  pattern is developed from the grid it uses. That grid is the foundation of the pattern. Although one grid may be used for many different patterns, the use of a different grid would have to result in a different pattern. Bourgoin's book shows the grids he used, but there are no explanations. The reader just has to figure it out.
