Question: A pleasant mix of original poetry and Innu stories!

I thoroughly enjoyed this text, written by a Native American Innu who resides off the reservation.  The work has a refreshing mix of original poems, stories, and stories that appear to be Innu retellings.  Nature and the Native American perspective penetrates the work.  For example, one short poem speaks of a deadly game between seagulls and crabs; another of a young boy wanting to kill a bear.  Surprisingly, the work has themes of great depth, such as the origin of the universe and the nature of the soul as told by the Innu.  Also, humor is not lacking, as one memorable poem tells us of the Native American take on Christianity, which is none other than the Indian Jesus within every Native American.  Well worth the purchase!

One of the best CD's ever made!  Not one bad song in the bunch.

Question: Stuck Somewhere In Time

Kind of repetitive and not a cohesive album at all. Maybe it'll grow on me. Will see. Not what i expected at all after discovering NW for the first time on "Live At Darryl's House".

I was so disapointed in this machine.  I bought it for my grandson for Christmas, the only thing he wanted.  Not only did it not work but the syrup they recomended was awful!

Question: Stiff poor quality buckles - otherwise, a pair of comfortable sandal

The buckles are of very poor quality.  Way too stiff, broke off within a week after very light use.  So, I had to return it.  However, what I liked was the material used for cushioning as it is really comfortable to wear.  Wish they used better quality buckles.

I ordered my normal size but the shoe feels quite tight.  Other than that, it's a very attractive shoe.  MJW

Great set of screws. Really helps camera stay held into place on mounts and easier to unscrew and dismount. Glad I purchased.

The cleaning pot will come in handy, however, there are zero-nada-no instructions included whatsoever as to what the other tools are for, nor how to use them.  Would have been a 5-star if the manufacturer would have thought far enough ahead to include them.

Question: Unequivocally brilliant!

Simply beautiful. That is first thing that comes to mind when thinking about Blood & Rust. And yes this is about another member of the MC Club, The One-Eyed Jacks, but the way Cat Porter so masterfully tells a tale, you can't help but bask in the absolute beauty of her words.

Butler and Tania, both troubled souls, both nomads in their own way, who somehow find each other after a less than stellar experience many years ago. Who are now older and hopefully wiser and come to see the other in a whole new light. Both with strong ties to Meager, both back to see if life can once again be as fearless as they had hoped.

What a book. The author's gorgeous descriptions of the world that is Meager, whether right or wrong, whether good or evil draw a magnificent picture in my mind and I am one of the crew once again. We get to watch as Butler and Tania truly sizzle in a slow burn of a romance, one that takes both of them by surprise, but yet is clearly destined nonetheless. With a passionate mix of hope, heart and trust, the journey that is Butler and Tania is the epitome of love.

The entire band of brothers is present along with the women who love them and we get updates into the lives of these well-beloved characters throughout the entire book.

My words cannot do this book justice. With each in the series starting with Lock & Key, you will be completely captivated and will experience an adventure like no other. I can only encourage to give Cat Porter a try and find out for yourself. She truly takes the seemingly ordinary and makes it extraordinary. And Blood & Rust just might be her best yet.

Go and get lost in the Badlands of the Dakotas for awhile. Your heart and soul will thank you.

5++++ stars!

I was a bit skeptical but I have to say this stuff is truly great.  After a long winter it took two washes to clean my minivan the first time but I cleaned the minivan and my SUV in 45 minutes including the optimum spray wax.  Since that first time both cars have been much easier and faster to wash.  With the 3 gallon bucket and lid, I am still using the first ounce and have washed both cars 3 or 4 times.  Very happy with this and when my parents saw how easy it was to wash the car they got some also.
UPDATE
I tried to see if this stuff is really working by trying to wipe off the dust and dirt (it wasn't too dirty) with just the micro fiber cloth.  The car was not as shiny and quickly I noticed a bunch of dust getting moved around and sticking.  The polymer in the solution truly does trap the dirt and then rinses out under the faucet when I am done.
Also, My 9 year old now wants to wash the car and is doing a pretty good job!

Question: The size was way off. Suppose to be a ...

The size was way off. Suppose to be a 4t and my 9 year old can fit. But it shipped quickly

This is a novel written by a former ballet dancer about the world of American ballet. It mixes fictional with real life people (e.g., George Ballanchine) and follows an 11-year-old girl and her dedication and ambition to "make it" in the world of professional ballet and her obsession with a middle-aged man who admires her. The novel shifts from present day to the late 70s, and leads to an event that happened in the past that greatly altered the life of the main character.

It seems that the world of ballet has its dark side, and more and more we are being exposed to it (the movie Black Swan, e.g.). There is intense competition and almost unreal physical and emotional expectations placed on these young girls, and apparently it is not an easy world in which to succeed. Through sophisticated prose and a compelling story, the author deftly exposes this world and shows the profound effect it can have on, especially, a young girl. My interest in ballet and the arts enhanced the reading experience for me for sure. The author created dynamic characters, developed them well, and told a fine story.

Question: ... is the follow up to A DOG's PURPOSE a wonderful read!

Have not read this book yet but purchased as it is the follow up to A DOG's PURPOSE a wonderful read !

Review of Audio Technica's ATH-M50x

When you buy headphones, there is a lot of criteria that you can look at. Sound quality is arguably the most important part when looking at headphones. Next you want to look at is; the type of headphones and what the physical quality is. The last thing to consider when buying headphones is the price that you would have to pay.

SOUND

So first up is looking at the sound quality of Audio-Technica's ATH-M50x headphones. The two main things I use my headphones for are gaming and listening to music. Right away I noticed how clear the music was with the headphones; because of that, you could pick up on every single sound in the song. When I began listening to music I realized that some of those songs sounded scratchy and had background static. I realized that the recording of the song was the reason for this and the headphone was just able to pick up on it. If you enjoy a lot of bass when you listen to music I'm not sure these are the headphones for you. The bass is well rounded but when you listen to the heavy bass songs you can't really notice it.

QUALITY & TYPE

Next, I'm looking at the build quality and the type of headphones that the ATH-M50x is. These are studio headphones that are over ear and have a closed-back. Since they are closed-back, they have better sound isolation don't leak sound nearly as much as an open back would. Looking at the build quality, I am fairly impressed with the structural quality of the headphones, as well as how compactable they are. The padding on both the ears and the headband are comfortable for long sittings as well.

PRICE

Lastly, you want to look at the price for these headphones. These headphones are usually sold for around $150 on amazon. That may seem expensive but for what you are getting it is a steal. Audio-Technica's ATH-M50x are arguably the best headphone in this price range, even beating other headphones in the $200-$300 price range.  If you are wanting to splurge on a new set of headphones, you won't go wrong with these.

SUMMARY

These headphones have great, clear sound quality that helps you notice every single sound presented. They are comfortable for short or long periods of use and are built great. If you are willing to spend a couple hundred dollars on a pair of headphones, you couldn't possibly go wrong with buying these.

Question: Horrible product. Not happy at all

I bought this pricey board as a Christmas gift for my daughter.  While at her home I noticed the board was severely warped.  Horrible product.  Not happy at all.

The City of London in the Victorian era comes to life in this meticulously researched book. The focus begins with the city itself -- its geography, dealing with the various rivers and streams that crossed it, the development of a system of roads and river travel. I found the information about building roads particularly interesting. The book moves on to the human element, which is fascinating. Details of how people worked, ate, and entertained themselves were all fascinating. I particularly enjoyed all the details about food -- where it was obtained, how it was prepared, how it was eaten, and, of course, class distinctions regarding what to eat and how to eat it. I have a morbid streak, so I also dug into the details about how the city's dead were disposed of -- it really wasn't very sanitary or respectful.

And, of course, all of this terrific research is juxtaposed with mention of similar circumstances in Dickens's works. I read this book without having read a lot of Dickens, but now I think I will venture to try "Little Dorrit" and "The Pickwick Papers," both of which are mentioned a lot in this book. Not being familiar with Dickens does not hinder one's enjoyment of this book, though!

Question: Love this for a touch of elegance and whimsy.

I can't believe how much I love this! I am an avid letter writer, the old fashioned with pen on paper kind.
I've always loved old fashioned things- and this is a simple and easy way to add some whimsy to my letters.
There were no instructions- but it wasn't too difficult to figure it out. I'm hooked!

Fit and function was all as expected and desired.  Easy installation and returns lift of gate to new.  Be mindful when opening the gate the first few times after installation, especially if the old arms were weak.  Good product.

I bought these for all the great reviews i saw on the internet. The only thing i like about this headset is the mic and the great quality sound. The only down side is the build quality,they are made of  plastic,the head band broke in half just from normal use.i have never taken them outside of my house yet they decided to snap in half in my room.but yea i would say if your going to purchase these be really dam carefull with them they are really fragile.

Question: Frequent Traveler - Road Warrior

I fly usually twice a week, and I am gone for 4 days at a time. At first I wore this for flights, and sometimes workout, but now I am working on replacing all of my boxers with these. My first pair I bought in 2009 and they still fit, work, are clean, haven't torn, etc. They are expensive, but will last forever. Buy them. If you travel on planes or whatever they are a MUST have.

It charged okay but did charge my phone until I figured out you have to press the little green light/button.  Looks like they'd put instructions in these things on how to operate them...

Question: Very Soft Lighting is Soothing

I am very happy with purchasing these low-light, night light bulbs. They fit perfectly in my salt lamp night lights, and I enjoy the benefits of low energy consumption.
A bonus for me is the very soft lighting, which is great for night time. Using this in combination with an amber "shield"/plate would allow for minimal distraction for all night use.

I recommend these for anywhere you want soft lighting, especially for night lights!

Fit my 2017 Honda Civic EX-T exactly. High quality and they look great. They even come with small allen wrenches to install. I used lock washers on the bolts to secure the extenders better.

Question: The book was great! Definitely left me wondering about the other characters

Debbie Macomber never lets us down.  The book was great!  Definitely left me wondering about the other characters.

This carafe is beautiful, elegant, and modern, and it looks great in the fridge or on the counter. The glass is on the thin side, and the tapered shape makes it a bit anxiety-provoking to use. I predict I will eventually break this thing; a mason jar might be a more realistic choice over the long term.

The carafe produces a medium-sized pitcher (yield: a few cups) of strong, tasty, cold brew coffee. It takes quite a good quantity of grounds to fill the basket, and doing so can be a bit fiddly since the opening is narrow. (A spoon is helpful.) The metal mesh of the basket is extremely fine, and very little sediment falls to the bottom during brewing. The sleek aluminum stopper fits snugly onto the filter basket, but slides around awkwardly on the glass carafe if the basket is taken away. This feels like a design flaw, but it's not a deal-breaker.

There are probably better ways to make iced coffee, given the price and fragility of this item. But I have no regrets.

had to return this one, to small even though it was supposed to fit according to them. will order the next size up when refunded

I love these note writing/ treatment planning books. Whether you are a novice/ student/ intern or a veteran therapist, these books will be great resources in anyone's arsenal of therapeutic tools. I know there have been many times in my career where topics, issues, or Dx become repetitively talked about, educated on, or written about.  My whole repertoire just becomes stale. These books re-inspire exactly when inspiration/ motivation is needed. I'm not too proud for help. These are not only helpful for beginners. They have been extremely helpful to me, many times throughout the years.

Question: Love the compilation.

Thank you for this compilation of your writings!

As other reviews have mentioned, it feels like it would be cheap, but it really holds up well. The battery life is excellent, and it is very lightweight. Having the phone held in the bracket mounting on top does make it a little awkward to hold (the weight distribution is thrown off pretty heftily), but using this with a tablet is phenomenal. The controls are responsive, the buttons feel smooth just like any standard console controller, and syncing this to my phone and/or tablet was fast and simple. In my opinion, only 2 options keep this from a 5-star review. First is the instruction manual. The manual was exclusively in Chinese, so if I needed it for anything, I would be hosed. Fortunately, it was simple enough to set up, and I didn't need the manual, but even still. Secondly, the charge cord that comes with it is very short, only about 2 feet. If I were to plug this into one of my rear USB ports on my computer then the cord wouldn't reach out to where I sit, and plugging it in while playing is almost a non-option. Fortunately, it uses the standard Micro-USB charge port that is standard with all Android products, so finding a longer charge cord is ridiculously easy. All in all, this an excellent product, and I would highly recommend it.

Question: Great Stride Rite Product!

Great fit & the shoes look great.  My daughter loves!!!! I actually disagree with the 1-star review 100%.  They do not look cheap.  I love that they have Elsa on one shoe and Anna on the other!

This was an impulse purchase on my Kindle.  I have the version with the pop up ads & yes, I fell for this one.  The cover got me I guess.  I ripped through this book in a day.  A suspense filled, complex mystery with some romance thrown in for good fun.  Realistic characters and a twisted plot keep you turning the pages.  Abby, the heroine is a high school math teacher with a dark past and Ethan, a small town police officer.  The couple first meet when Ethan saves Abby's life after a car accident sends her car into an icy river.

The action was well paced and the slow cook on the romance perfect.  I will definitely check out the rest of the series.

Question: New bags, works better

Bought this to freeze corn fresh off the cob for winter consumption. This unit does not completely seal the bags if there is any moisture in whatever you are trying to seal, and yes, I did use the "moist" button. The sealer does not create enough heat to seal the bag completely when any moisture is present. I overcame the problem by putting the partially sealed corn in the freezer and resealing the next day. When all the liquid is frozen, the sealer will finally seal the pouch. There's got to be a better unit out there. Look elsewhere.

Update 8/26/17  I bought after market non OME bag rolls from Vacuum Sealers Unlimited on Amazon a while ago and these bags work so much better than the FoodSaver OME bags that came with the unit. I still have a problem trying to seal leftover corn that has been cut off the cob, and yes, even on the "wet" setting, but that is the only time it doesn't seal completely. It has been almost 3 years since purchasing the sealer and it still works well.

Let's be clear about those rave reviews for this: either they're plant reviews or are by ten year olds. This is garbage, pure and simple. I love horror but "Dead Tone" is insulting. Someone took "Scream" and decided it would be much better if they took out all the humor and played it straight. There's not much actual gore in any sort of interesting or convincing way so you don't have that. There's no nudity so you don't have that. Not a single scene played for laughs but not a real scare either. What is it those people liked about it? Oh, yeah, they liked that someone paid them to give this a good review. Hell, the DVD isn't even anamorphic...in this day and age. A new dvd. WTF? And Flavor Flav's introduction? He shows up and says, "I'm the Timekeeper" and walks off. Literally, that's it. There's nothing about this that makes it worth any one's time.

Question: Sherlock Holmes and the Tangled Skien

D S Davies has captured Doyle's characters Holmes and Watson and wrung out of them another tale of mystery and intrigue. I can see Basil Rathbone more than Jeremy Brett in this story which veers slightly from the Victorian terms. Nigel Bruce's voice echos in this story as well.  A good read for a Holmes's fan.

My 5th grader utilized this book as one of several resources for a non-fiction book report - he happens to love science & was enthralled with the story of Oppenheimer's life. This book concentrates on his mid-adult life during the development of the atomic bomb.  Good read + lots of well laid out facts.

This was horrible!!  I've used these before and I guess I'm stuck with permanently needing to buy this brand, but this one has given the water a chemical taste.  I bought it in March and only installed it the other day, but my tap water from the faucet tastes better than this.  Maybe I got a bad one and I'll have to take the hit on it.  Very disappointed

It has a great cast, which may help this very cheesy movie become a cult classic. There was a lot of hype about this movie and I am confused as to why. Worth a watching but not something that I would buy. Good for a laugh.

Question: Nice collection... for new fans.

The Warner Brothers Years is a very nice collection. It is just what it says. My one big gripe is that all Steve Earle fans will have already owned the 3 previously released studio albums. The unreleased show from the Train A 'Comin' tour and the MTV special are really nice, but how about some of the B-sides, soundtrack cuts, and other non-lp  material from this era?  This would have been nice 'cause there was some strong material to be found. Another beef I have is the liner notes and artwork are a bit thin. For $40.00, all the hardcore fans of the hardcore troubadour are getting a dvd and a cd and not much else. And I bet they probably already have "unofficial" versions of the concerts. If you don't already own this material, it's a five star collection worthy of yer hard earned money. But for all Steve Earle fans, you may want to pass.

Disappointed there are NO subtitles available for the hard of hearing.  Series is best ever though!  Awesome actors. I had already seen the whole thing on tv just wanted to revisit.

The best part about this book was it answered any question I have ever though of about how evolution works and how we know what we know.  I have been reading science/evolution books for over a year and was getting bored of reading the same things.  This book is completely different, by not assuming the reader accepts the methods used to prove evolution, Dawkins goes through and explains just how we know what we know.  I have never doubted the evidence for evolution, but I never looked into answers on the little questions about dating and DNA comparison.

Aside from the context of the book the way in which it is written makes it an easy read.  Dawkins interest and excitment over the topic is clear and makes it a joy to read.  I would recommend this book to people who don't think evolution happened to those who accept it and just want to expand on that knowledge.

Question: I had plenty room to wear a warmer shirt under and itll look good without anything underneath

It wore well. I received numerous compliments at the premiere of Black Panther.
I had plenty room to wear a warmer shirt under and itll look good without anything underneath.

In Jerusalem, AD 70, a 16-year-old girl named Ariella witnesses the city's destruction by Roman forces and loses most of her family.  Sold as a slave to Valerius, a politician and Bacchanalian in Rome, she is forced to live in humiliation until her escape to a gladiator troupe disguised as a boy.  When the troop reaches Pompeii, she is caught out of her disguise by newly-arrived Quintus Cato, a former Roman politician who fought against corruption and lost.  He is now in Pompeii with his family in an attempt to escape politics by starting a winery.  Pompeii, however, has its own corruption in the form of Maius, who rules the city through fear, intimidation, and with an iron fist.

As Ariella tries to find a way to win her freedom, Cato attempts to build a new life and avoid those who would have him run against Maius in the next election.  As the lives of these two intertwine, a portrait of the brutality and debauchery of the Roman Empire is cunningly wrought.

This is a fast read, filled with treachery and intrigue.  This was a time when Christianity was a radical faith and Christians were routinely persecuted and executed.  They met in secret, and by doing good works, drew more followers.

I really enjoyed this novel and it's glimpse into Pompeii directly before Vesuvius erupted and destroyed the city.  Without delving too deeply into historical detail, yet still providing enough to be accurate, the reader is pulled into the lives of the characters and I found myself figuratively on the edge of my seat, pushing for justice for Cato and his sister, as well as hoping against hope that Ariella would find happiness.

Likely considered Christian fiction, this novel will still appeal to the mainstream reader.  Christianity does play a role, but as part of a larger story that includes all elements of the Roman Empire at the time.  Great characters, intrigue, and a touch of romance make this a novel worth reading.

QUOTES (from an ARC; may be different in final copy):

There was a procession of Jews, yes.  But not on foot, fleeing to safety.  On crosses, writhing in death throes.  An endless line of them, crucified in absurd positions for the Romans' entertainment, until they had run out of crosses, no doubt.

She smiled sadly.  Her childhood faith had long ago been trampled by Roman boots, replaced by nothing but cold anger.

Bought it off somone when it was 12 years old, had around 90,000 miles. Hasn't been bad for my first car. It's very simple to work on and replace. I did have some misfiring which led to me replacing the mass air flow sensor. Didn't fix the misfiring, replaced coils and spark wires and it stopped. Lesson is start cheap, I guess. Car now has over 100,000 miles and is running smooth. Just a rough idle. Not a bad car.

Question: Fascinating historical novel about Queen Mary.

The queen of England, Mary, who preceeded the more famous Queen Elizabeth on the throne has all but been forgotten.  The central character to this book, Hannah Verde, is a Jewish girl pretending to be Christian for her own protection.  Hannah has the unpredictable gift of being able to see the future.  She is brought to court to work as a "fool" to the short lived King Edward and stays on, through thick and thin, to work for Queen Mary and her half sister Elizabeth.  I found this story to be less about Hannah and more about Queen Mary who had a disastrous reign because of her fanatical Catholic faith and her poor selection of a husband.  The story also focuses on the manipulative Queen Elizabeth before she was Queen.  Although a bit dry at times I found this book to be a fascinating study of England at a time of extreme religious turmoil and intolerance.  The message of the book, I think, is that more murder and mayhem has been committed in the name of religion than for any other reason and that the only way to peace is religious tolerance.  I highly recommend this book.

Pole seemed to be very sturdy, have not encounter any issue where the cam does not properly lock the poles at desired length.  One minor irritation is the amount of paper label on the pole.  The labels keep coming off the pole into water in little pieces.  You have to keep chasing them with the net or wait for them to be sucked into the main drain or into the skimmer.  The adhesive used makes it difficult to remove the paper labels from the pole prior to use.  If Stanley can change the label into removable plastic label, it will be a perfect 12-foot pole.

Question: Big design flaw but had about 3 years now

I have had this model about 3 years now....Loved the earlier version of this maker but after about 8 years of DAILY use, it got tired and retired itself.  While this makes a great cup of coffee and I like the looks... the design and practicality is lacking. Most people store their maker on the counter and under an upper cabinet.  Because this maker fills from the BACK.. it means pulling the maker all the way out.  We placed a plastic cutting board under ours to make sliding in an and out easier (things don't slide real easy on rubber feet). I also dislike the timer. I have it set to go off the exact same time every morning yet I have to push buttons 5 times (yes 5) to get the timer to come on the exact same time it did just 24 hours earlier.  I am too cheap to get another but when this one gives out I will look for a simple one step timer and front water fill.  I included photos of what I mean by having to drag the maker out from under the upper cabinet to fill it.  If it wasn't for the plastic cutting board that we put under it,  we would have replaced the maker years ago.

Please remove my review.  I didn't realize that is was going to be posted with my user id.  Thank you.

Question: Superb work of engineering.

Not too heavy, and easy to control, which is important working that high up. My wife loves it. She's the one who uses it most, when she's not mowing the lawn, etc. Very well made.

The War of Art, by Steven Pressfield, was a very disappointing book. The book is only 165 pages and many of the pages contain as much as four times the white space as type. Many "chapters" are two, three, or four sentences in length. Seriously! As a result, the book comes off looking bigger than it actually is. If the unnecessary white space was removed, it would be a 30 page pamphlet. If you have read "Nobody Wants To Read Your ****," also by the same author, he uses the same "fill the page with white space to make it look larger" technique to pad the book with useless white space.

But even worse than the white space padding is the lack of substance. The author's main point, which he spends 165 pages to repeat over and over, is one's greatest obstacle to achievement is resistance and procrastination. Not exactly breaking news there. The author fails to provide any remedy other than to just jump in there and get to work to overcome the resistance. Not a new formula there either.

The book fails to live up to the hype of its title, "Break Through the Blocks and Win Your Inner Creative Battles." After reading the book I feel no closer to breaking through any battles.

Ironically, two "super heroes" of breaking through the author cited in the book, Tiger Woods and Lance Armstrong, are certainly no heroes. While lauded for his cycling championships in the book, Armstrong cheated to win those championships, which were later taken from him. Tiger Woods, an unfaithful husband and cheat, fell from grace after his infidelities were discovered. If I was writing a self-help book, I certainly would not use these two men as examples.

Great quality currently using this item for a diaper dump pouch on my diaper bag. Exactly what I was looking for to avoid caring around some pink flower encrusted diaper bag. My wife actually like the functionality of my bag better anyway.

Lovely butter dish. Fits regular quarter pound butter sticks and could fit wider ones as well.

Question: This is a must for any beginning or advanced jazz fan!!

This book is a great look into a great album.  I'm just getting into jazz, so I can't say I know too much about it yet.  And, I know only a little about music theory, but this book is a great way for the beginning jazz fan to understand what makes jazz, and this album in particular so great.
The author had unparalleled access to the actual master tapes from the two sessions that made up Kind Of Blue.  He was able to hear what was going on between takes.  Unfortunately there wasn't a lot being said.  There's even a comment in the book about how they would stop the tape in between takes, as if to save tape.  So, unlike other recordings of the day, when the tapes would continuously roll, this master tape gives only a little glimpse into what it must have been like during the two days of recording.  The author is able to do the rest through interviews with people who were there.
There are only two chapters on the actual recording sessions.  But, what the author does is take us through the recording take by take, song by song.  It was great to be able to sit back and listen to the music while the author and others went into detail about the song you are listening to.  As a beginning jazz fan, I was able to understand the music much better.  I always knew I liked the album, but now, I can see a little deeper into why it is so great.  I have a long way to go, but this book helped my understanding significantly.
The book doesn't just focus on the recording of the album (obviously with only two chapters dedicated to the two sessions).  You get to learn a little about Miles and what he was doing musically prior to this album.  The book shows you how he was always looking to improve on his previous work and expand what jazz was at that time.  It is by no means close to a biography of Miles, rather, just a look at what he was doing in this time.  The book then continues on with the selling of Kind Of Blues and the influence it would have years after it was made.
My only problem with the book, and it's my problem, not the books, is that I didn't understand a lot of the musical theory that was being written about.  But, as I said, that is my problem.  It is far beyond the scope of this book to delve into music theory.  I will have to return to the book once my understanding is better.
If you are just getting into jazz or want to know more about Kind Of Blue, you need to get this book.  I can't recommend it enough.

I generally do not write any reviews for products I've bought in the past but this book was so helpful, I have to share my thoughts.  This book was invaluable to me in learning about my body and how the whole pregnancy process works.  I took a series of tests a month ago and found out that my FSH was on the high side for my age of 35.  My doctor said that I should take more aggressive measures to get pregnant.  I was on the path to starting on fertility drugs right away but then I found this book.  It made me slow down and think a bit.  I started seeing an acupuncturist who also provided herbs.  I started doing meditation and just destressing.  It's been a couple of weeks, and I just took a pregnancy test and it's positive!  Even though I probably concieved a few days before having this book, I'm sure the last couple of weeks of practicing what the book recommended had a lot to do with a healthy implantation phase.  I wrote to Jill(one of the authors) via their website asking for advise on acupuncture during pregnancy.  Taking her advise, I'm continuing acupuncture during first tri-mester to prevent miscarriage. So far so good.

So much smaller than a regular book bag, very disappointed considering the price.

Question: Best Book on Kubrick the Man

This compelling, fascinating,  beautifully written memoir paints a richly detailed portrait of Stanley Kubrick, a uniquely brilliant artist and a deeply complex human being. A mass of contradictions and, at times, jaw-dropping eccentricity, Kubrick comes to life as never before in this intimate account by Emelio D'allesandro, his trusted personal assistant and friend for 30 years. And though at times I wondered how Emelio could have dealt with all that was asked and expected of him by Kubrick without having a nervous breakdown or physical collapse (something which ultimately does nearly happen), I also found myself surprisingly moved to tears by the affection and respect these two men held for each other as so beautifully expressed in this one-of-a-kind, minutely observed book. If you're a fan of Kubrick's films and want to know more about the day to day life of the man behind them, then this is the book for you!

I love the look of this sandal, but the ankle strap is quite short. I should have paid more attention to those reviews that mentioned that. I am working on trying to figure out how to add some length to the strap.

Question: Metal dice that're actually metal.

These dice are actually metal, and I know this because they conduct heat well, they're three times as heavy as plastic dice that are larger than these metal ones, and they're sonorous(they ring out when struck). They are expensive, but any supposedly metal dice that you get for a cheaper price probably aren't metal.

If you into not seeing what the heck is going on, this is the flick for you. The best I can tell, it's about birds, mostly pigeons. There's not a single attractive person in the cast, which may explain the lack of illumination. Good thing I have Amazon Prime, I'd hate to think I spent extra to watch it.

It seems like it's not the best made product in the world, but it works out the box.  So, we'll see how long the stylus tip stays on (I've used better) and how long the pen lasts.

I have been dying to have a green screen and I finally got my hands on one! This product came right on time and granted once you hang it up from out of the the package you can see the line folds, but lets be a tad bit honest here nobody will really noticed that since the background is being removed. The pictures below was my first time using a green screen instead of lasso the background out. I haven't 100% perfected the wand and how to fully use the green screen. I used the wand and lasso in Photoshop. Hopefully later on when I get more clients wanting to try out the green screen I shall update this post with more information.

Question: Moleskines are for girls.

Keep your sissy Moleskines. I liked these pads in my Marine Corps days and I love them now.

Ergonomically, this mouse works well. It's comfortable to hold, the buttons work well, and the forward/back buttons are in the perfect place for easy access with my thumb.

Unfortunately, I'm going to ditch using this mouse for one reason - the lag and stuttering. Oftentimes, the mouse pointer will just stray from where I wanted it to move, causing me to click the wrong link or button. It's quite noticeable and makes using the mouse a huge pain. It just doesn't seem to be very accurate. The pointer often wanders in a different direction, and it's gotten to the point where I have to accommodate for it physically by redundantly moving the pointer in a circle around where I want to click to make sure that at the current moment, the pointer is stable, before I click!

UPDATE: Contacted Anker support, and I was promptly sent a new mouse, which so far has not exhibited any of the problems of the old mouse! Thanks for the great customer support!

This was a huge step forward for the boys as this exhibits all orginal compositions. Full tilt Blues/R&B.

Some other fave's of mine  are 505, Under My Thumb, Stupid Girl and of course, Paint It Black. This  release features the brilliant instrumental ability of Brian Jones and the  steady and creative rhythm section of Charlie Watts and Bill Wyman, along  with the amazing compositional skills of Mick and Keith. This is a must and  a true turning point in their sound and direction. Check it out, I highly  recommend it.

Question: Dieselpunk New Adult Romance?  Heck Yes!

A week or so ago I posted the free link for this new adult book on my Facebook page along with a short snippet about what genreexactlythis book calls home.  Dieselpunk is the title that I saw attached to it in one description, and I admit that despite having read for these many (it is starting to feel like many) years, I had never heard of the genre before.  Apparently this genre is not exactly an offshoot of steampunk, but it is a separate category of literature entirely dealing with the interwar 1950s diesel era.  That is the most basic explanation that I can give, and I snagged the book because it was free for a limited time and I felt that I should be exposed at least once to this genreand free is the best price?

I have never heard of Karen Kincy before, but I will definitely be keeping a readers eye on her after finishing Shadows of Asphodel.  The characters in the book are intense and inspiring individuals that are easy to connect with, and I found myself hooked just a few pages in.  Ardis with her foreign beauty and deadly skills, Wendel with his charm and apparent lack of conscience, and even the steadfast Konstantin all suck the reader into the story.  Magic, emotion, action, and fascinating worldbuilding keep the reader flipping from page to page to track the couple.  I hit one point, at exactly 86% into the story, where I turned to my husband and stated that if the characters did not reach some established point before the story ended, then I would probably break my kindle over my knee.  The threat of damage to my beloved kindle should be enough to convey my emotional investment.

You can definitely feel the new adult flavor of this book in the actions of both the male and female lead characters.  All the factors you expect to find in a romance book are present in this story, including physical interaction between the primary characters, but do not expect crazy five page love scenes.  This book does not need to dress up the interactions between Ardis and Wendel  they simmer from chapter to chapter and ignite as they come together.  I feel like there is such a great balance between romance, action, and the fascinating world that these characters live in that I am asking my husband to read the book as well.  I had to buy the book for him, because it is no longer free, but it is totally worth it!  There have definitely been some books that it was difficult to rate on a star rating, but this is definitely a firewall five, people.

You can spend a lot of time searching around on the internet for the answers this pamphlet lays out for you.  It lists twelve major denominations and what they believe in an easy to understand format. Who each denomination thinks God and Jesus are, how we are saved, what happens after death, and other questions are answered.

If you're stuck on the definition of a religious term, there's a handy chart on the back that explains what they mean.  There's also a great visual family tree that shows how the denominations branched out.

This is a great visual reference to understanding the different denominations today and what they believe.

Since I began using this modem, my wifi fails to reach mere speeds of 25 Mbps, even standing next to my AP extreme. I am paying for 150Mbps. When u add ur own modem, as opposed to renting for $10 a month, you are forced to call Comcast/Xfinity and provide ur new modem details. I am an avid ookla.com tester, and I get the potential "Channel Interference" issue. So, as my cables; Ethernet & Comcast cable have not changed, I see the modem as the likely answer to the speed degradation.

I only just started using this product and it definitely cleans well.

Question: Gripping, entertaining, and educational - can't ask for much more!

Although I truly enjoyed the first book in the Fire trilogy, I must say I enjoyed this book even more.  Although some reviewers felt the book began slowly, my reaction was the exact opposite - it grabbed me from the beginning.  As I commented to a friend, my only problem with the book was that I finished it far too quickly.

I found the meticulously researched battle descriptions enthralling, and the dialogue entirely believable.  Mr. Datta's character development was superb - I found myself deeply invested in all the characters, even the deeply flawed Bragg.  Mr. Datta did an excellent job of using the characters' dialogue to portray all sides of the slavery issue, and dealt sympathetically with the plight and the motivations of the common Confederate soldier.

One aspect of the book that bears highlighting, in my opinion - in addition to being an excellent and entertaining historic novel, it is also a valuable source of leadership lessons.  The book is rife with examples of how one man (regardless of rank) can make a difference, both in a positive and a negative sense. The interplay between the senior Confederate generals and Bragg is fascinating, as is the relationship between Bragg and Jefferson Davis.  While telling the story of both Sam Davis and Jefferson Davis, the author is also examining the dichotomy between admirable loyalty and blind loyalty, and the consequences of blind loyalty to one person while ignoring any other advice.

.I recommend this book not only to history buffs, but to anyone who enjoys an excellent, fast-paced, multifaceted story.  I'm really looking forward to the next installment of the trilogy.

Loved this Christmas book!  I really enjoyed the characters.  Not only Jackson and Kayla and their complexities but the entire O'Neil family.  Makes you want to take up skiing and vacation up north.

Question: An excellent book on the changing of empires

Adam Tooze's book on the aftermath of World War One captivated me from start to finish.  What is contained in here is a comprehensive overview of the events that shaped the modern world and how the United States became the "superstate" that essentially supervised the governing of Europe after that war.

In its 517 pages of text, Tooze brings us summary histories including the negotiation of the treaties of Brest-Livtosk, Versailles, St. Germain, Sevres, Lasuanne and Sykes-Picot, all of which played major roles in changing the boundaries of Europe and Asia and set the stage for an even worse war beginning in 1939.  As Britain and France were draining their resources in terms of men and money, they made the faithful decision to apply for loans from the United States beginning with loans made by J.P. Morgan to finance the disastrous Battle of the Somme.  As the debts piled up higher, there was a move to extract monies from Germany for its part in damaging northeastern France while at the same time the United States told the Entente nations to pony up their money and give it to Washington.  This cascade of debts led indirectly to the start of the Great Depression a decade later.

There were other parts of this book that were interesting as well including the battle over who would win concessions in China and the role Japan played in obtaining Manchuria and the former German claim of Shandong.  The rise of the USSR was notable in that while the communists were unleashing misery in that part of the world, it failed to spread the revolution effectively in Europe which led to the "socialism in one country" plan.

The author seemed to praise nations going off the gold standard which led to the instability of currencies to the present day.  Thus, I have some disagreement with Tooze on Keynesian methods.  Nonetheless, the author made his point clear that the war led to a changing of the guard in who would effectively rule the world and that the war led to not only financial ruin, but also to ruin in terms of lives lost which Europe has only just recovered from. A fine book for all who want to know how America became the policeman of the world.  Five stars.

this thermos is the worst. it doesn't keep beverages hot for very long, certainly not nearly as long as any Stanley or Thermos brand flask, i've used in the past. i've gotten maybe 8 hours of maintained (or close to maintained) temperature at best, whereas with the two other brands mentioned above, i've experienced temperatures maintained for 24 hours+. the hydro flask leaks like a sieve, regardless of how well adjusted the rubber ring between the cap and the cup are, or how tightly the lid is screwed on. i was initially attracted to the flip open lid, to make for easier coffee access, particularly while driving. the flip top is so stiff, it's nearly impossible to flip with one finger, making it pretty pointless. another minus, when you do flip (or click) the top closed, whatever's inside splashes everywhere. i can't think of a single plus to state about this product. whenever you see a hydro flask, look the other way.

Question: Very good for the price, with great features!!

I like the features of this speaker, like controlling the songs or muting at the speaker. The rugged design is also a great feature, and its water resistance is yet another positive. Compared to the Bose unit the sound is inferior, but still quite good. If you are looking for a very good sounding device that can stand being knocked about a bit, this is the unit for you. You can also get two and turn them into a right and left channel, and still pay a bit less than getting one of the Bose units.

I only rate this a 4 because I cant give it a 4.5 or 4.75. It is a great set and one that I recommend getting if you are a Star Wars (the original movie) collector. As stated in one of the other reviews there are figures here that you just can't get individually. Until this set is re-released or the figures are carded independently, this is the only way you will get them. The only gripe someone might have is that the figures don't have the great articulation we find on the newer models. Otherwise this is a fantastic box set.
Now I know there are those who would complain about the sculpts of the faces, and if you were to compare the new version of Governor Tarkin and this Grand Moff Tarkin, then you would have a valid argument. Yes even the Admiral Motti has been updated. However, the paint job and details on the uniforms is very clean with no bleed and the scale and overall appearance are very well done. I say for this old a set and for what it encompasses you really shouldn't bash it. Even the packaging is stunning. What's more, as one other reviewer states, there is a description for each character on the back that explains how that person represented, fits into the story line.
So...I'd say "this bickering is pointless", if you have reservations about purchasing this, just think about how much it brings to your collection.

It really is a beautiful necklace, but how I received it is why I won't give it 5 Stars, It came in a nice box, but when I opened it, it was all balled up in one corner, and the inside felt was torn along one edge.  I paid a lot of money for this diamond bracelet, It would have been nice if the seller treated it as such.  Having said that, the diamonds are very clear, and this bracelet shines.  It really does look beautiful.

Question: Useful, practical, no college education required

Now here is a practical guide which really delivers what it says in its long title. It's an easy read in bite-sized chunks and can be dipped into or read right through. Because it's be designed to be immediately useful without having to read it cover-to-cover, there is some repetition. As a handbook, it's written to support individuals who are discussing Islam with family members, friends or acquaintances, either face=to-face or by e-mail. Those familiar with Bill Warner's material will recognise his influence throughout the book.

The main chapter "Answers to Objections" is 90 pages long and provides up to eight possible answers to 26 objections, so you can see it has plenty of "meat".

The book has a heavy US focus, and draws on American models like Dale Carnegie's How to Win Friends and Influence People'.

Although I gave the book 5 stars, I was a little disappointed that, although it attacked radical Islam and Islamification of the US, it focused only on the the WAY Islam is threatening, not WHAT it's threatening. The US Constitution is mentioned only once (p 76) and the book does not make clear that the US Constitution and all its major amendments are incompatible with sharia law.

What's more, Islam is out to curtail, change or stamp out western civilization, including the democratic process, freedom of the press, freedom of expression (including artistic freedom; no political correctness), science, understanding that the natural world is not bound by human doctrine, equality of opportunity, equal rights and obligations for women as for men, government that is small, rational and fair, the individual before the group, civility, religious freedom, tolerance (but not of public intolerance), trial by jury, habeas corpus, the presumption of innocence, the rights of the child, an obligation to help the genuinely disadvantaged in society regardless of religious affiliation and, generally speaking, a live-and-let-live laissez-faire attitude. Such a list is missing and it would have rounded out the book very nicely.

Excellent value for money!

This cook book is wonderful!  They have a wide variety of dishes, ranging from something similar to McDonald's egg McMuffin to BLT Burgers to BBQ Bacon Meatloaf, and the completed dishes are actually TASTY!  My fiancee was a bit skeptical when I first started talking about this cookbook (especially after trying a few other not-so-tasty diets)!  We have tried several of the recipes in the past couple weeks and have not come across one we didn't like.  The best part about this book is - it's more of a "lifestyle change" than a "diet".  What you're eating doesn't taste like diet food!  The cookbook tells you the nutritional information per serving for each dish - and ONE SERVING is often filling enough to be considered the main part of the meal - add some green beans, a slice of whole wheat bread and dinner is served!  I loved this cookbook so much I bought the orignal one, and will be scoping out recipes in that one soon!

Question: Exactly what we needed!

Frees up counter space, easy install, and lots of air flow for the brushes. I hate regular toothbrush holders because you have to clean the bottom basin too frequently. This is absolutely perfect!

This rambling survey of modern particle physics and cosmology reads well, but ultimately one has to ask, "where's the meat?" Granted, these topics are so esoteric and abstract that trying to relate them to everyday experience is nigh impossible, but a few authors (e.g, Richard Feynman and Steve Adams) have been able to accomplish this. Kaku flits from one subject to another, reciting a canon of gee-whiz observations (such as John Wheeler's suggestion that there may be only one electron in the universe, traveling back and forth in time), but he offers no logical structure upon which these conjectures are based. The book reads more like a collection of fables and fairy tales than a scientific treatment.
BEYOND EINSTEIN could arguably be recommended for those who have never done any reading on particle physics whatsoever, but for those who have already looked into it, the book will probably disappoint.

I have been reading the Seth books since the 70's
and they are as good now as they were then.  In fact
I appreciate them more now, realizing the courage and
discipline it took for Jane & Robert to do what they did
to get this material out to the world.

I have rebought many of the Seth Books on the kindle
and I will say though I love my Kindle it bugs me that they
are edited so much.

I have found Deep Space to be a real page turner that I enjoy reading.  There are many plot surprises and the immortality and moral dilemmas make you think about the same issues in society and in war today.  The story feels like it takes place in years instead of rays.  Some character changes (Hoff, Destra) seem unlikely.  The story may be a warning on where our society may be headed...it is obvious that the author has a lot of thought and research behind the story.

The concept is good, but there's not much of a story to this "book." It's very short if you select the right path.

Works well with my Asus R500V laptop.
Smooth install. It does have some trouble reconnect after the computer wakes up.

Definitely recommend this! Keeps my school i.d. and bus pass securely. No more searching crazy for my pass or i.d.  Even the teachers DO NOT realize it's my cell phone!!! LOL They just think Im going thru my wallet! Some ppl think it's croc material. Others think it's slick red leather. LOVE IT! Best 3$ spent!

I was so excited to get this dress, but it didn't fit at all. The top was see through and way too big and it puckered out at the hips and was not flattering. Also, I'm only 5'2" and it was kind of short for a maxi dress even on me.

Great gold mirror case for the price! Hard plastic. Mirror does get scratched after time but that's to be expected especially since most of us use our phones for everything and are constantly throwing them in a purse or putting it in our pocket. I would buy again.

Question: Not exactly an admirable relationship

I gave this book one star only because there is no option to give it less.  I can completely understand why so many young girls are flocking to this book, but if I had a teenage daughter I probably would not let her read it until she was in her late teens, and then I would discuss at length with her the negative and undesirable qualities that are depicted in the relationship between Edward and Bella.

To keep it brief:
Edward's moods and reactions are so changeable that Bella never knows if she has, unknowingly, crossed over some invisible line
He spies on her, literally (in her bedroom) and (more disturbingly and invasively) by listening in to the minds of people to whom she is talking
He admits that it is "unethical and immoral" for him to pursue a relationship with her - and then does it anyway
She has to lie about her relationship with him to pretty much everyone.

Other things that trouble me in this book include:
-the fact that so many parents are taken with it, and handing it to their teens, because there is no sex in it.  Well, they may not commit the act (not for Bella's lack of desire, by the way) but the book is extremely sensual.  It's a bit troublesome to me to think of an eleven-year-old reading this kind of thing
-the constant description of Edward as "seraphic" and "angelic" and even "god-like", coupled with the fact that an underlying message in Twilight is that vampires are good.  And therein lies the problem: vampires are evil.  They kill people.  These vampires have chosen to kill only animals, but the blurring of good and evil is a serious issue and should not be minimized.

I bought two chairs and they as beautiful. One of them, though, is cracked in the back under the seat.

Question: A refreshing, realistic view of a Law Enforcement Officer

Necessary Chances is in need of some proof reading/ editing as it was laden with spelling and grammatical errors.  You can tell the author's mind was going faster than his typing.  I still gave it 3 stars due to content but with some editing it can easily gain more.  The humorous stories highlights  aspects of law enforcement most people overlook and are unaware of.  The book is comprised of short stories covering many aspects of this officer's career.  I would like to see some stories from his time at the academy included to show how he has evolved.  Maybe even some stories of instructors 'razzing' him as he did with recruits.

This was well written and interesting.  I thought Sanders did an above average job with Flowers this time.

Question: Good But Awkward to Change Out Filters

Good humidifier  - sends a ton a moisture into the air. A couple of drawbacks: The are no easy places to grasp, no "finger holds" on the housing when one wants to remove or flip the filter - very awkward to get set right. Do not buy inexpensive filters because they flop over! The design of the filter in NOT circular - it's one long piece that one has to gently put in place. The cheap ones fail very fast - because of their flimsiness. Always use bacteriostat in the water, as well as a water conditioner. There are combo bottles available.

If you want something thats reliable get yourself a rock and some tinder, will be less frustrating than this

Question: Good Movie, clear picture

I bought this on DVD to upgrade my video copy from Turner Classic Movies (taped off the TV). The picture was as clear as could be expected, since it's an old horror movie with bad lighting. The movie itself is good, but maybe an acquired taste for modern audiences.  Two sets of travelers stop at the old dark house in the midst of a terrible rainstorm, and meet a creepy family. The cast is very good: Boris Karloff, Melvyn Douglas, Charles Laughton.  Try it, you might like it!

Awesome sealer. Initially put an oil based varnish on the headboard I made. After 2 weeks of curing the odor was still so strong I couldn't sleep in my room and had to keep the door shut to contain the odor. I sanded the wood down again and applied this product. Odor was very mild and after a few hours, not even noticeable. I was able to sleep in my room again!

Question: Very sturdy, multiple viewing angles allowed

I was a bit skeptical about how good this mount could really be, but for the price, I thought I'd give it a try.  I installed it and mounted a roughly 35 lb. TV, and it feels rock-solid.  I would feel comfortable hanging a significantly heavier TV on it.  Combining that with the fact that it came with all the mounting hardware you could possibly need, a level and a better HDMI cable than the one I already had in place, this was a great deal (in my opinion, anyway.)

Question: Really Helpful Info for Novice and Experienced Make Up User

I purchased this for a young teen in the family who is just beginning her journey with make up, hair style choices, etc... I looked it over before wrapping and was really impressed with the info. Although it is geared toward a teenager's skin issues and concerns, it was really informative.  I wonder if she has a similar book for the over 40 crowd - our skin is much different after we start to move out of our 30s and it would be helpful info to have.

Question: Saved my co-worker's career

A co-worker of mine, Mr. Brown, was frequently showing up to work late with cuts all over his hands, and generally seemed as if he had lost his passion for life.  One day I overheard the boss mention that Mr. Brown might find himself unemployed if he didn't start showing some professionalism. After this I had to ask him what was wrong.  As he broke down in tears he stammered "It's those dang bananas for my kids, there's just not enough time in the morning to slice one banana, let alone two. So I end up rushing and cutting myself, and then I'm late for work."  That's when I introduced him to the Hutzler 571 banana slicer.  Not only do I have 2 at home, but I keep one in my desk at work as well. (You never know when you might need a banana sliced afterall.)  From that time on Mr. Brown has been able to feed his starving kids without risking the safety of his hands, avoid frequent blood infusions, show up to work on time, thereby saving his career.  Not to mention productivity and morale have been through the roof.

An expansive book that should be beginning reading for all new karatekas. "If I only knew where this was leading..." Finally, someone delivers on internal martial art in a readable form for everyone. Anyone can find at least one good idea in there that is important enough to change your practice. Shifu sets up philosophical templates that can be challenging new mental constructs for some readers, however, something great pops up in every chapter that I never considered. Literate martial artists will have a field day with this book!

My boss even noticed it and asked where I ordered it so we could get it for the other teachers.

Question: Thin, light, and durable.

I have to say that so far, there are no complaints that I have about this case. I had it on my Galaxy Nexus and it overall protects the phone from scratches and minor drops. The case is designed to be thin and light; not to protect high or hard drops. This type of case is for those who just want some basic protection from scratching the back of the phone. The case provides a good grip with its matte back. Fits tight and snug.

When I inserted the YoYo cartridge in my HP 8600 printer, it recognized the cartridge as "Non-HP", and gave a warning message about that, but otherwise, the cartridge works fine.

So if you don't see an update, that means it is still working fine.  Meanwhile, I refuse to pay HP's exorbitant ink prices, so I'll be buying more of these YoYo cartridges.

Question: Book is poorly written.. painful read.

The flow of writing in this book is dreadful.  I honestly don't understand how this was published.

I've read 40 pages into it and the book is mostly narrative dialogue.. but in the few instances where it's descriptive.. the writing style doesn't change.  No attempt is made at transitioning from event to event and it's very unrealistic at best.  It doesn't seem like a normal conversation with normal associated emotions.  Flat and unappealing.

I do not recommend this book whatsoever.

Question: Awesome for our 7 year old.

We were looking for a nice sturdy set of headphones that our 7 year old wouldn't break in a matter of minutes.  Not only do they sound great and block a large amount of ambient sound, the single cord on the left side is nice and thick.  We don't have to worry about the chair rolling over the cord.  The chair could probably roll over it a few dozen times with no fear of breaking.  For the price, this is a wonderful sturdy set of headphones.

Just be sure you really know what size fits you correctly.  To do this, I recommend going to a store that sells Bali, preferably a Hanes outlet store with fitters available, if you need assistance.  It will cost more to buy the first one there, but once you know your correct fit, you can look for bargains such as this online.  These bras wash very well; I have a Maytag front-loading washing machine that handles delicates superbly; if your washer is not front-loading, I recommend hand washing.  And of course, never dry in a dryer.

This heater is actually a little too powerful for hooking up to small propane tanks. It would be perfect if you could turn it down more. 10,000 btu is still putting out a ton of heat. I use this in a golf cart in the winters and if you're not careful, it could melt the steering wheel. If they offered one that was 6,000-10,000 it would be perfect. Also, since this puts out so much heat, it freezes up the propane bottle pretty quickly. Just a bit over kill for small bottles. Works great though.

Was suppose to work with I phone 5 and did not had to get an adaptor cost more then the device

I thought this was kind of a thin story. LH showed a lot of skill, keeping my interest when the hero was, for the first half of the story, lying in a coma, almost completely swaddled in bandages. Even on the verge of death, his strength of character, his refusal to succumb and his responsiveness to her presence forged a deep bond with Jay, the heroine. But when he opened his eyes after the bandages were removed, Jay was stunned to realize that he wasn't her ex-husband (from whom she divorced five years ago) - but a total stranger. Now, this was where it made no sense. Jay now knew she'd incorrectly identified him as her ex-husband Steve. The government agents surrounding them (in particular, Payne) had known from the beginning the real identity of the man in a coma. Payne and The Man just wanted to protect their agent (the comatose guy) from the bad guys by shielding him with Jay's dead ex's identity. So why didn't they anticipate that Jay would know he was not Steve, now that she had seen his eyes? LH's apparent explanation was that both men had brown eyes; therefore Jay would still think he was her ex. And that was supposed to be the "little" detail the FBI, Payne and The Man etc., had overlooked. Hello? All brown eyes are exactly the same? Jay knows Steve's eyes were a deep brown, but the strange hospital patient whose hand she'd been holding throughout his stay turned out to have yellowish brown eyes. I guess because his face has been injured and altered, that's the reason they think Jay won't recognize him even with the bandages removed from his eyes. This absurdly weak spot in the plot kept some part of my mind preoccupied in puzzling over it instead of remaining deeply absorbed in the narrative. Not LH's best work - by far.
The rest of the book was "Steve's" attempting to overcome his total amnesia and Jay's battling her guilt that she refused to tell him the truth, for his own protection - and because she didn't want the charade to end so she'd be sent away and lose him. Yeah - pretty lame. Of course, she gives in to his sexual demands despite her guilt.
Jay came across as needy, desperate and dishonest. Lucas (he eventually remembered his real name) came across as having bonded with a woman just because she held his hand when he was helpless. I felt deeply skeptical that their bond was real, deep or enduring.
The only reason I gave this book 3 stars instead of two, was because LH did a fabulous job describing Lucas and making his virility and sexual appeal so potent. He lacked refinement or sensitivity, but was completely convincing as a lethal, high value secret agent and as a man who made "women fall all over themselves" (as described by Payne).
Too bad the hot affair (and marriage) between J and L seemed doomed (in my opinion) to a swift end. The whole story made little sense.

I've had mine for years now and it still works fine.  I keep the house temperature cool and place a space heater next to my chair when I sit down to work.  This thing has done the job day after day for years.  It's not silent but not obnoxiously noisy.  Since I got this Holmes,  I have bought several other brands, some more expensive, and they have all since died, needed repairs or in one case  almost caught fire due to a plug failure.

Space heaters collect dust and pet hair which will eventually kill them if you don't clean them out every so often.  A vacuum cleaner helps a bit.  Best is to either open it up (not difficult)  and clean it out or take it to a garage and have them blow air through it.

Question: Rolling ruler by Alvin

I actually have a small 6" rolling ruler made in Taiwan by an unknown manufacturer. Everything is made out of cheap plastic and it doesn't track very well because of the plastic wheels. THIS rolling ruler, on the other hand, is made out of much better plastic and the wheel assembly and assembly housing is made out of aluminum with rubber padded wheels which aid tracking. I love it! I use it because I keep my journal in a blank book without lines. I make light, parallel pencil lines with this and it works better than advertised! It has high quality and tracks beautifully! I'm a happy camper!! Thanx, Alvin!!

Just got done reading Red Junction and loved it!  Suspenseful, gross and oddly poetic.  Made me laugh numerous times despite myself!
