Question: Poignant Historical Romance

While doing research for a book, Hannah, an aspiring writer, sees a mysterious woman dressed in period clothes on a webcam. Curious, she investigates, and finds herself pulled into a tragic love story and murder that occurred more than one hundred years ago in New England's, Martha's Vineyard.

The story alternates between Hannah's current time (2013) and the ghost, Stella's time (1884).  The majority of the book covers Stella's story.  Readers will learn who Stella is and how her tragedy involved Christopher, an Irish immigrant.  They will learn why she felt a connection with Hannah, and why it was so important to have her story told.

The Ghosts of Aquinnah paints a realistic picture of historic New England.  The details are so well written and researched that the reader can clearly picture the setting.  The characters have a lot of depth, as well, so it is easy to become emotionally involved with Stella and her world.

Readers who enjoy historical romance will enjoy this book.

I am a catholic who was always on the fence about the death penalty. I read sister Helen Prejean's book and saw the movie. I always felt she completely forgot the victims of the pieces of human waste. After reading "Victims of the Dead Man Walking" I know it's true. She wanted to put a human face on the killers but what about the victims? These animals took away a young man trying to start over, a young father going home to his pregnant wife and child, and was free to brutally and savagely rape and murder a beautiful young lady with a bright future ahead of serving her country and making her parents proud. And then after THAT kidnapping, raping, and terrorizing, and ALMOST killing a young couple. I can't stop crying after reading this. How can this nun, this "Sister" of the catholic church defend these P.O.S.'s?  This type of thing is part of the reason why I have lost faith in the catholic church and choose to worship on my own. She is a phony. And don't bother to contact her, if there isn't fame and fortune in it for her or speaking engagements, she is not interested. I wish I could hug Faith's mother and tell her how sorry I am for the loss of her beautiful daughter and I heard her husband had passed as well. As a mother myself, it makes me want to vomit when I read about what Faith went through. No amount of time will ever take away or lessen Elizabeth Harvey's pain. This lady is who the nun should try to be helping or the widow of the policeman. Not some pathetic killer on death row who is exactly where he/she deserves to be and they aren't even sorry for what they have done. Do I believe that redemption is possible? Of course I do. I believe that God forgives those who are truly remorseful and repent and try to make amends for their wrong doing. But at the same time, every killer or criminal that goes to jail seems to find Jesus. I didn't mean to get onto this soapbox but I have to say, where these creeps were concerned, the death penalty was way too humane a punishment. Sister Helen argues that killing people to say killing is wrong is wrong. The death penalty is not a deterrant. Well, if it is not a deterrant that is because number one, we do not execute ENOUGH in this country, we leave the criminals to die of old age on death row. Secondly, the method of execution is too kind. When I think about the brutality of Faith and other victims, the killers should die in the same manner as their victims, in pain, alone, and afraid. I try to live my life in peace and love but I can't help but feel if someone does something like that, they indeed forfeit their right to live with the rest of us. Read this book, and please keep the victims in your prayers and in your heart. <3

Question: Best sweeper I've ever used.

This has to be the greatest sweeper made.  The angled ribs help push it down as you sweep, we have a pool that has an oval shaped deep end (dough boy pool) and the deep curved walls were impossible to sweep, this bad boy gets it all and is super durable.  Wishing I would have found this much sooner.

I am a true GB fan.  I will watch him in nearly anything.  This script was written by women, and it expresses a cynical attitude about men, which has some basis in truth!  Men cannot help their sexual view of the world, it is hard wired!  Love them anyway most of the time.  This one is about two very different people, a man who has been unlucky in love, and a woman who is very controlling, and still trying to find the perfect man.  GB's character is eventually attracted to her, but thinks she is out of his league.  You slowly learn GB's raffish character is a pretty nice guy, underneath it all, and not as sure of himself as you might think.

The dance scene is worth the price of admission, and GB actually took dance lessons to do it right although Heigl did not.

They were unable to come up with a satisfactory ending, and filmed two.  I did not like either one though.  One is a wedding, which was never shown, and one is a sex scene, in a dark room, not too satisfactory either.  GB is a very good actor, would like to see him in a better vehicle.

There is a ten minute gag reel of outtakes available online, but if you are easily offended, don't Watch!

A couple of amusing short scenes, such as when GB takes Heigl to the dress shop; watch the red headed sales lady closely.  Good actress, who is amusing without trying hard.  Love those tight shirts on him though!

Question: Good for one time use only

Unless you have a project that requires less than 10 punches, don't bother with these cheaply made needles. They either bend or come out of the handle. Too small to grasp comfortably unless you have small hands. Points are not really detailed enough to make a difference in which one you use. Good for one time use only.

The unit worked well for about 8 months. Read all supported formats without difficulty. After about 10 months it started having trouble reading commercial CDs. Often spits them out with an error message or says "No Disc". Still works well with DVDs. I notice that some Sony units have exhibited similar problems.

Question: Brothers, You Should Buy This Book

I did my M.Div. at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary in historic Wake Forest, NC.  While there I took preaching classes (homiletics) from Dr. Stephen Rummage, who is now the preaching pastor at Hickory Grove Baptist Church in Charlotte, NC.  Dr. Rummage taught us much about the benefits to expository preaching, to ministry, and to life.  He was one of the most gracious men I have ever met, you know, the kind that would never say a negative or derogatory comment.  I remember one class, right after a chapel when I think the visiting speaker actually read a couple of verses from the Bible to which he then gave us "7 Things. . . " a collection of his personal opinions.  One seminarian asked, "Dr. Rummage, was that an expository sermon?" To which, he replied, "Well brother . . . (pregnant pause) it was biblical! . . . but that just wasn't an expository sermon."  Besides pouring a dash of his rhetorical skill into our eager minds, Dr. Rummage left us with one great resource before he left the Seminary for the pulpit (his true calling), that is Planning Your Preaching:  a step-by-step guide for developing a one-year preaching calendar.

This week/weekend I have been working on putting together a preaching calendar for the remainder of this year.  While what I preach from week to week is definitely not set in stone-and the Spirit usually has a way of redirecting my path-it is definitely a stress reliever to have a plan.  A plan that is flexible enough to allow for freedom, but organized enough to give meaning, purpose and help.  Before I even met Dr. Rummage I was already a convert to the expository method.  My problem in expository preaching, however, is that without putting together a plan, I can't see the forest (big picture) for the trees (the details).  That's where this book comes in.  It gives the unorganized a little organization.  It also gives direction to different Scriptural texts that are appropriate for different holidays and special emphases.

Though it has been a while since I've seen him in person, Dr. Rummage's contribution in Planning Your Preaching is one that I've read, re-read, lent out, and given away.  If you're a preacher, or you know one, you should buy this book.

I purchased as a gift for my daughter-in-law, the NIV is so easily read,and with the notes at the bottom of each page, helps a person understand what a verse is saying or means, especially a beginner in the Word. The cover on this Bible is durable, as well as attractive to carry.
Having it in Spanish was so very helpful to her as she was just learning
our English language.  A quality Bible to give as a gift.

Question: Expensive for what it is.

You know, I'm a designer, and I love the fact that the colors change in the rain. However, there are a couple caveats here:

1. The umbrella actually isn't that large. It's a pretty small dinky one, and easily blown inside out / broken.

2. The chemical starts to wear off or something, and the white isn't so white anymore after a number of times out in the rain.

3. Considering how much this thing cost to get, not really worth it unless you want it just for show and tell; I'd much rather pay a little less to get an umbrella that works better so I'm not always worried about breaking my $40 umbrella.

The backpack part was much smaller than I thought. We returned both backpacks due to how small the actual backpack part was. Barely room to put anything in it. Very cute just too small for what we needed it for.

Question: Beautiful and captivating.

5 STARS!

I was given an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

*This Review contains Spoilers*

I honestly don't know whether I'll be able to find the right words to express just how much I loved `The Forgotten Ones', but I'll give it a shot. But just in case my ramblings for adoration for this book aren't coherent I'll make it clear now: BEST BOOK EVER!

From having the story told from Allison's point of view, I felt it strengthened the connection the readers have with her. Reading from Allison's perspective of her mother's illness and her confusion for her feelings for Ethan made me admire her devotion to her mother who has been diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia, and we can accept why she doesn't want to let Ethan into her life.

The opening paragraph drew me in straight away and the glimpse we are given of Allison's mother holding her Violin with blank eyes is beautifully haunting. I loved the way that Laura Howard was able to bring both sadness, beauty and pain all into the descriptions of the schizophrenic episodes. It reminds us that although there was a great deal of pain and heartbreak that Allison has to deal with by caring for her mother, there is still brief moments when her mother smiles, or plays a jolly tune on the Violin that reminds Allison what she is working for. Whilst I loved the relationship between Allison and Ethan and can't wait to see it progress in the next book (pretty please :D ) I was proud of Allison's devotion to her mother, and knew that without that element to her, Allison would not be as loveable a character as she was.

The imagery of the fairy land (Tír na n'Óg) was stunning and beautifully woven into the story. I loved the imagery mirroring The Shire in `The Lord of the Rings' which is just how I would have pictured the land myself. The descriptions of the sky, grass and trees were perfect and I honestly imagined myself there at that moment between the sky. As with Niamh's home I loved the almost ethereal, elven quality that showed the power and wisdom of the King and Queen of Tír na n'Óg.

However, my favourite character in `The Forgotten Ones' was Aodhan. I loved his back story and can't wait to read more of him. I loved the roguish quality he had, yet the fierce loyalty he held for Allison, acting almost as her guardian. The pain that he'd suffered in his life was clear in his every action and I love the spark he has with Niamh, which I'd love to see explored in a second book.

Overall, 5 Stars and a fantastically beautiful read. I definitely recommend to all who love fantasy, romance, or are just looking for a book to escape into for a while.

...and can be informative, but this album is 100% DB from begining to end and back to beginning. Expect the unexpected and prepare to be amazed.

Question: watch when you refill tanks

Great heater  I got the adapter for the 20lb tank so you can fill the small tank the heater uses  BIG BIG savings and works great  I read reviews when I first bought the adapter that said you should put the empty canister in the freezer before you fill it  And that is the way to do tHOWEVER you cant leave the canisters outside in the cold  The heater will start and stay on for a few seconds then stop  I unscrewed the canister at this point and it froze and when it was completely off of the heater it sprayed out the propane and I got a freeze burn on a finger

Pendulum is a poorly written "historical" book.  Within this work, Williams and Drew attempt to make a constructive argument on generational trends, but it is more of a haphazard collection of charts, quotes and lists.  Having little structure, the authors historical points are weak, limited and, in my opinion, lacking clarity.

This book reinvents how generational trends influence a culture and is not a new to most historians. I would recommend a number of other books on this subject - including one referenced on page 8 within this book.

In summary - I do not like this book and DO NOT RECOMMEND BUYING THIS BOOK

Question: Worked for about a year, then total failure

I bought one of these to give myself some more storage on my Galaxy S5, and it works perfectly for that!

Update a year later: about a year after I purchased this, I went to take a picture on the same Galaxy S5 (the same phone it's been in for a year without being removed once) and the photo wouldn't save to my SD card.  I think it must be a random glitch at first, and then to my horror I start seeing all my files disappear. Then my phone won't recognize the SD card, so I take it out, and even my computer won't recognize it.  I lost everything on it, including priceless photos I will likely never see again.

So the thing is a useless hunk of plastic and silicon now. Worse than that, it crashes my computer when I insert it into my laptop's card reader.  I've tried four separate fire recovery programs and all of them fail and my computer will inevitably crash.  If I leave it inserted in the computer, the computer won't even boot up until I remove it.  Neither will it shut down properly, and some programs won't launch with it inserted.  But as soon as I remove it, everything is fine.

I'd give it another star for working fine for a year, but it completely crashed and now is worse than useless since it crashes anything it gets plugged into and I can't recover anything off of it. I'd be wary of buying another one for fear of buying another ticking time bomb.

This does the job, but does have some drawbacks.  Its screen is very hard to read when wearing dark glasses, or in direct sunlight if not held at precisely the right angle.  It eats AA batteries, so use of rechargables with spares always at hand is essential.  Distance measurements are accurate, both to greens or hazards, it picks up satellite signals quickly and finds all local courses.  Would recommend newer models with better readability instead of this model.

Question: Excellent protection from burns removing items from ovens.

I purchased these gloves for my son who works as a baker with a chain of bread cafes.  The protection that was being supplied where silicone hot pads and he was getting burns when removing baked products from the ovens.  Since he has been using these gloves his hands are better protected.  He uses these gloves everyday that he works.  He swears by them to protect himself and there are easy to maintain and wear.

I used my new glove for the first time this weekend and it fits really good and comfortable. I had no problems with using my spare gun and although I did not get under much rocks I felt comfortable touching the ones I came in contact with.
I would recommend this glove I consider myself to have big hands and tis side fit well. I will still have to see how it hold up after a few dives

Question: ... today and although it isn't (yet) advertised it very easily synced it with the new Canon T6i (750D) camera

Just received this today and although it isn't (yet) advertised it very easily synced it with the new Canon T6i (750D) camera. It works with the wireless 2s delay but that's perfect for my shooting needs. Works well AND for a fraction (1/4) of the OEM remote cost.

This book does a good job at bringing you into the topic, but then gets a little dry. If you can stick with it the whole time it is actually an awesome bit of information to learn. I would recommend this book as a great educational piece, but there is not an overload of excitement.  I think that there is a reasonable amount of Fact, Annotations and Politics to make it a good story. The duo of authors have a good opinion and an awesome way of conveying it!

Question: Very significant, blending language, business & insight

Let me walk you into this book, just to whet your appetite: Clancy discusses the "web of language," giving an historical context for his interest in how business has utilized specific metaphors to reach its various goals. He then turns to the theory of metaphor and discusses metaphors used in business, identifying a number of families of metaphors (examples: the journey, games, war, the machine, organisms, society), and indicating which have appeared useful contextually for eliciting various responses (ex: pleasure, purpose, cooperation, precision, meaning, ambiguity, leadership, etc. etc.). For each group, Clancy analyzes their origins, modern use and implications. He then moves on, in Part 2, to analyze how business, purpose and metaphor are related, the economic and cultural sources of these purposes, and ends with (prescient) predictions on the future of language use in creating power and purpose in global business.  Fascinated?  If not, you are surely a fool!  I found this so engaging.  Its combination of historical context, interest in language and application to the business world, its inquisitive philosophical bent, and its accessible and natural style, are truly enjoyable, and practically significant for future economics research and business development.

I'll keep this short because I assume people simply want to know if I'm happy with the purchase. The answer is a resounding "yes". I am overwhelmed with its picture and aesthetic quality, the easy of delivery and the simplicity of set-up and use. The settings are good right out-of-the-box and unless you pretend to be an expert, will not need outside calibration.

Usually I'm used to being underwhelmed with electronic purchases. This reverses that trend.

Another excellent contribution to help the Saints understand the symbols behind the process and presentation.  Well done, Professor Gaskill.  Highly recommended to any who are trying to better comprehend the ancient roots and types in temple worship.

I've been a long time leather lover and have a large boot collection. However I never owned or cared for any exotic leather pieces until I purchased a crocodile leather cuff. For a very expensive high end leather item, I expect it to last a very long time and give me lots of wear. I wasn't exactly sure what products to use on a croc/alligator leather and came across this product. I'm not accustomed to BickMore leather products but took the chance after reading the positive reviews.

The bottle comes with a sturdy spray top which I think is handy, but for my purposes, needed more precision application so I squirted the product onto a dish and applied with my fingers and cotton swabs.

The product itself is very watery and milky, similar to Lexol leather conditioner. It absorbed quickly into the leather and left a bit of a watery residue but that also absorbed into the leather.

True to claims, it absorbed quickly without any sticky residues and without any noticeable darkening or changing of the leathers natural color. I applied 3-4x applications of this all over the front and back of the crocodile hide and it feels much more supple and soft now!

Time will tell how well this protects and prevents cracking and drying of the leather but I'm very satisfied so far!

Question: These earrings look pretty and sparkly

These earrings look pretty and sparkly.  I ordered them for my granddaughter. I had to order two pairs because first earrings one was noticeably bigger than the other. Second set same thing. Couldve kept both and had two pairs of earrings. But did not like the fact that in order to put on these earrings the Mickey head needs to be screwed into the back  from the front. The little ball on the post does not come out. Very awkward to put in.

I bought this for my wife for Christmas. She loves it. It does a very good job of cleaning and restoring silver, platinum and gold jewelry. She started with pieces that were not as important to her, and she was shocked by the way a quick clean returned it to its original form. It is simple to use, fast and easy to clean. For the price, it can't be beat.

Question: I don't want to let the cat out of the bag

No photos, no fluff, just DATA!  LOTS AND LOTS OF DATA!
If you are already well versed in minerals and gems, this book will be a WELCOME addition to your library.
Seriously, I love this book.

The Sound of Songs Across the Water is both elegant and raw--characters spin out in the dazzle of a California summer, in a kind of brilliant dream of music and love, lust and deception, heartbreak and the ghosts of a troubled past. There is something of the Great Gatsby in this book: characters moving through luxury that belies brokenness, a past that is both myth and curse. Riley's dream propels him into the lives of his former best friend and bandmate, his best friend's wife, and the LA music scene, and like Gatsby, the fulfillment of that dream comes at a great cost.

Yardumian's prose is precise and lush, lyrical and poetic. He is a writer's writer, but he also knows how to create characters you'll fall in love with, and a story that'll keep you up all night. You won't want to put this book down, to leave the luminous, sun-drenched world Yardumian has created. This book is sexy and smart--a brilliant debut novel by a remarkable writer.

Question: Most of the stairs are either too narrow (not deep enough) for our lab to feel comfortable on, or only made for small or medium

I had been looking for pet stairs for our older lab mix (75 pounds) to use so he could climb up and down from our bed. Most of the stairs are either too narrow (not deep enough) for our lab to feel comfortable on, or only made for small or medium dogs. These stairs are a great height for him, and the carpet on the top makes it so he doesn't slip!

The plastic does make it feel like they are not that sturdy, which is why the 4/5 stars, but so far they've held well for our dog.

Bill Gaw has been instrumental in his teaching, practicing, and mentoring others for over 35 years in the science and art of leadership and management. Bill is one of the professionals who I have the utmost professional respect for and he is one of those unique people who can synthesize complex concepts and ideas into an easy to learn format and how to apply in the concepts in practical terms. It is "real world".

"Back To Basics" does exactly that. As a practicing Lean practitioner myself, Bill's book was an true joy to read. It reads well, written in a style that is in novel-form, yet is able to explain the 8 basics of Kaizen-based Lean Manufacturing in sufficient detail that the reader can come away with a good foundational understanding of an integrated approach to implementing Lean that will work in any organization.

There are many books out there that dissect the concepts of Lean, but do not offer an approach of taking 8 concepts and tools and putting them together into a clear-cut system. After reading this book, the reader will have the ability to take the 8 Basics and use them as the basis of structuring and implementing a workable Lean program. The book allows the reader to walk away with knowing what things they should focus on and learn more about to be a "real world" and one of the "top 5%" of people who can successfully implement Lean.

Every person needs to read this book and see that there is nothing "magical" or "mystical" about understanding and applying the principles of Lean. It is taking the 8 Basics of Kaizen Based Lean Manufacturing, and combined with effective leadership and the focused application of common sense, go out and make it happen.

Bill demonstrates with this book why he is one of the most respected business professionals and teachers today. Buy this book and you will not be disappointed.

Bill, you hit a home run!!!!!

Question: Healthy snacks and that the dogs like them.

My dogs love these and ask for them every night.  I cannot even open this cabinet door where they are kept cause they come running in waiting for one.

While I appreciated the anecdotal style (I particularly enjoyed the one about Warby Parker), I found Originals lacking structure in progression. Each chapter was well-written and articulate in its own right, but as a cohesive book, I thought it slightly missed the mark.

Question: Good, but could be better.

This would be better designed if the receptacles were on the bottom and the USB ports on the top.  Large transformer cords block the USB ports.

I did not find it gripping or terrifying or any of the other superlatives reviewers used. It was predictable and plodding at times, but an okay book. I actually found the foster family interactions far more interesting than the "thriller/suspense" elements. I also don't particularly like reading about bullying and kids being mean but that's not what put me off. I expected more from this book and found it disappointing.

It is the second time that I purchased this faucet, I love it! It is well made, elegant, goes well with our granite counter top colors, pleasure to use. It is worth the money!

Question: hoses too hard, must have tank filled to brim to work

Just to keep it simple this pump is hard to set up. The instructions are small printed crap, the hoses so hard i nearly broke adapterers pressing them over, and it the peices of tube do not lock and seal. the biggest issue is they have to be 100% submerged or air creeps in and it won't prime. you have to have tank 100% filled at all times or air gets in. shame it's very powerful and fileters great but i cant drown my turtles so i have to glue tubes to seal them

I bought this to put in my home office to use as a guest bed.  It's very comfortable and the height from floor to top of mattress isn't too low (18 inches, so similar to a low-profile bed).  It came partially assembled (the drawer unit) which was great!  I just wish the panels to assemble the top part had been marked a bit better in terms of which side of each panel faces in/out/up/down.  We installed one piece backward and now have drill holes that are visible when the unit is opened up.  That said, it's very easy for one person to open and close and looks, sleeps, and feels like a real bed.  The drawer is quite roomy and I can fit most all of the bedding in it.  I also really appreciate the outlet on the side - super thoughtful design.

Beautiful pieces of artwork. Each unique in its own way. Easy to hang and I am sure to love them more as I see how they look with time. Love that they are made by an artist in Haiti from recycled materials!!

Question: A Genuine Voice Speaking with Confidence

Gina Cloud has written an amazing book destined to find its place at the crossroads of Feminism and the Cultural Wars in libraries everywhere.  In a voice that is genuine and confident, she spins her theories of W.O.M.A.N.  Being one.  Feeling like one.  Relating to one.  Understanding one.  Her style is conversational and engaging, perhaps because this beautiful young woman (love the photos!)is also very much at home up on the stage or behind the microphone.  Yet tucked within that conversational style are very real and important revelations - an amazing resource for a man who would like to understand his wife's heart and soul. Or his girlfriend's. Or his daughters'.  Ms. Cloud takes strong and unambiguous stands on everything from pornography (she hates it), to feminism (she thinks it has done as much harm as good), to sex (it's great!(when properly approached)), to PMS (rename it "Powerful Monthly Sight" and embrace it!) to laughter (go ahead: LAUGH OUT LOUD!) and much, much more.  You may not agree with everything she says - and there is much here that may be too new or too unvarnished for every taste - but I dare you not to finish it.  Or, better yet, to stop thinking about it once you have.  At the risk of creating a pressure I personally know all too well: "When's your follow-up work coming out, Gina?"

Question: Appropriate for reg. jobs.

This works well enough, not the smoothest blender, and not THAT strong. But for a smoothy or for blending other soft or a bit hard things, its not bad.  The price is appropriate.

With each successive collection of poems, it becomes increasingly clear that we have a poetic genius in our midst.  In this latest collection, jacob erin-cilberto tests the limits of creativity, and the result is nothing short of astounding, authentic, fresh poetry.  He gives us haiku,  senryu, free verse and acrostics all with equal expertise and skill.

In the title poem, he tells us he is "a poet stopped at a red light", but we  come to realize, as we read all the poems here, that he is merely at a crossroads of sorts, and getting his bearings with keen observation, as he continues on his travels.

"The Composition of You" is a remarkably beautiful and sentimental poem in which the speaker paints a vivid image of the object of his affection for the reader, so we see the beauty through his eyes.  One is reminded of Mona Lisa's enigmatic smile and gaze when the poet says:

i see under the layers
a posing of sadness
reaching the surface in some code of suppressed memory
everything seems to mean something else

Just as it is with DaVinci's famous portrait, so it is with erin-cilberto's poem.  With each reading, we see another layer, another degree of complexity, and are drawn in by the beauty of the words and we see it is a thing "to be held, to be appreciated" and "not to be hung senselessly on a wall for show".

The series of 5 poems,  "Run Ons - Splice" (1 through 5) is playful and imaginative, with the poet creating meaning through structure.  They are like "pieces of [him] with no title", so we don't need titles....we are allowed glimpses of his innermost feelings.

"anonymously unbecoming of e.e. cummings  and not really Creely" is one of the most unique and intriguing poems in the book.  It is at once whimsical and reverent, paying homage to all of the greats.  The poet claims he will:

"never go toe to toe with Poe
nor match wits with Whitman
keep the beat like Keats
or write long and mellow
like Longfellow"

As you read on, it becomes clear that the poet might be measuring himself against the greats; yet, he does so much more than "skirt the rim of some of them".  He proves that he is worthy to be counted among them.
I marvel at his economy of words, and nowhere is it more evident than in his "six-word poems".  There is a saying that "brevity is the soul of wit", and so it is here.  He says so much with so few words.

For example, "In Retrospect...a six word very short story" :

"I am, you are, we weren't"

This simple phrase speaks volumes.  It defines why relationships don't work and I would imagine that there aren't many readers who cannot relate to this in some way.

Yet another example of his concise use of language can be found in "Fancy Meeting You Here" :

"...because fate
accidentally
intervenes
on purpose"

There is such basic truth in this paradox.  It eloquently reminds us of the idea that sometimes, people coming into our lives seems to be nothing short of serendipitous.

But my favorite poem has to be "Neglected Returns".  I've read a lot of jacob's poetry, and I never cease to be amazed at this incredibly gifted poet.  He would balk at being called a poetic genius, preferring to see himself as a mere "conduit" of the words.

"again
never happens before first times
and the last chance to get it right
is the first time we get it wrong"

This poet uses such simple and elegant words to convey such complexity of thought.  His poetry is as humble as he is.  This is pure jacob.  How fortunate for us that he has stopped at this "intersection" to pause and share his gift with us.

I bought a glug jug several years ago after eating an English friend's home. It was great fun to hear the sound of the water as it poured the first several glasses. I had to have one! I continue to love mine and always have it for dinners with company. A good friend loved it and hinted it would be a great birthday present for her. She now uses hers and loves it. It makes drinking water fun!

This is a very different book than I expected, but I found it very enjoyable. Left me wanting to read more. Luckily, there are at lrast two more books.

I was given a free copy of this book in return for an unbiased review.

Question: Great characters, great story

I'm not a big reader of detective novels or the "police procedurals"  but this book is an exception. The author's sketches of LA street life and the politics inside LAPD ring true. Harry Bosch is a great character, he is the quintessential take-no-prisoners lone wolf whose interpersonal skills never fail in isolating himself and making enemies of allies. You sympathize with Bosch's basic "otherness" even while wanting to shake him by the scruff of the neck as he burns one bridge after another.

The weakness of the novel are those times when Connelly attempts to write about Bosch's military background. He gets basic Army slang and expressions, especially those of the Vietnam era, terribly wrong. Fortunately, the flashback sequences don't take a lot of time.

A thoroughly enjoyable reading experience.

Quantity is smaller than expected but the nuts were good.  It think Costco and Sam's Club have better deals.

Question: Black Butler mat is perfect

This anime is one of my friends and I favorites. I got this as a christmas gift and she absolitely adored it!!!

This is a great vacuum with lots of power. It cleans up well on carpet and on hardwood floors. The attachment hose works very well on furniture and hard to reach carpet areas for pet hair. I was very surprised how much suction power the hose had. The hose could be a little longer for convenience of cleaning stairs, but otherwise very useful. Easy to switch from hose to upright vacuum. Slightly more difficult to switch from carpet to bare floors as the switch sticks and must use a lot of force. It is not much heavier than previous vacuums I've had. Very satisfied with this purchase and would highly recommend it.

I love the feel of the cotton, especially nice for cooling you down!  These are extra, extra long, so they stay tucked in no matter how much pulling goes on during the nite.  Would love wrinkle free, but that just isn't cotton (unless mixed with something else).  So I'll put up with wrinkles!

Not a great robe. It fits well but the texture is rough and the first few days I had it, the belt loop came undone.

Question: Brian Moreland's "Dead of Winter"

*Brian Moreland's excellent "Dead of Winter" sends chills down the spine icier than a Canadian blizzard. This multidimensional terrifying tale will have the reader sleeping with the lights on for weeks after turning the last page - especially if you read it from November through March.

A detective and an exorcist might make for an unusual and unlikely team, but that's exactly what it might take to get to the bottom of a terrifying epidemic - one that transforms ordinary people into shape-shifting cannibalistic monstrosities. Both the detective - Inspector Tom Hatcher - and the exorcist - Father Xavier - have encountered an infamous victim of this illness: The Cannery Cannibal, who murdered 13 women. Hatcher was the detective who finally ended the Cannery Cannibal's crime spree, and Father Xavier was called in to exorcise an evil inherent in the asylum where the Cannery Cannibal was imprisoned.

Set in the Ontario wilderness in 1878, this plague has infected Manitou Outpost. The resident Jesuit priest, Father Jacque Baptiste - one of the few last survivors - sends a young girl, Zoe (the daughter of the fort's chief factor Master Pierre Lamoth and his wife, an Ojibwa Indian, Wenonah) on a desperate race for help to the next closest fort, with instructions to find Father Andre and entrust an encoded diary to him.

When Zoe's unconscious body draped over a horse arrives near Fort Pendleton and found by Tom Hatcher and a group of trackers led by an Ojibwa woman, Anika Moonblood, the residents there are already dealing with unexplained gruesome murders of their own.

This mystery that needs unraveled has apparently spanned centuries. So, is this epidemic demonic in nature? Or an explainable illness? Or lycanthropy, as one doctor theorized? Or a Wiitigo spirit feared by the Native Americans?

I loved the soul-stirring and very accurate Shamanism portrayed in this tale (especially toward the climax, but I'm not going to spoil it for readers - just be ready for mind-blowing spirituality). I also loved all the depictions of all the gorgeous Corvus Corax - Ravens - that made their presence known throughout - even if they were on the "wrong" side of the storyline.

The Crowgrrl highly recommends this one! I'd love to see this made into a movie, too!
Dead of Winter

After reading all the rave reviews, I bought a copy of this DVD.  It was a major disappointment.  It's nothing but a sadistic (torture and animal murder) gross-out movie aimed at teenage boys.  The production looks cheap - it's loaded with cliches, and the villain is a repulsive witch.  The film is loaded with old age stereotypes, snobby yuppies.  I urge everyone to watch a classic Hammer film or something with genuine style - not this potboiler!

Amazon's listing says the drill comes with 4 bits, but Amazon's listing is incorrect! The drill comes with only 2 bits as per the reseller's (Blue Mountain) listing. Please do not blame Blue Mountain for Amazon's mistake. Overall, the drill is great.

Great, comprehensive introduction to Mexican history, though the first few sections that focus on pre-colonial early colonial periods were a little slow and long for readers interested in learning about modern Mexico.

Question: The beginning of an epic saga

I read my first "Berserker" book back in 2002 (curiously, a french translation) and I really enjoyed it. It is not hard science fiction, neither fantasy science fiction; it lies in between. Previous books of this series are cleverly written, you never know much about berserker's origin which is, I think, a good thing. It keeps the mistery going on and on. The war between robots and humans is really cruel. "Thanks god" Saberhagen only tells "happy ending" battles. Happy endings is really a dubious term, considering the severe losses on human side. The characters in this book are kept simple but attractive. Berserker Prime narrates the first encounter between berserkers and humans. The political situation, before the arrival of the robots, is really interesting, and depressing.
Saberhagen has not the most elegant prose I have ever read (although it should be said, english is not my native language; that should be obvious once you read this comment) but the story is compelling, the plot is intriguing and the characters are almost charming. If you like science fiction, you should try this one; you may like it a lot, like I do.

The five stars in this review are for amazon's solid customer service not the fruit stand. The fruit stand is totally useless and deserves a rating of zero stars. The center post was defective and despite several attempts to fix it the stand had a horrible wobble when put together. it was impossible to put any items on the stand because the bottom basket would tilt until one side rested on the counter top. Amazon quickly refunded my money and it is customer service like this that keeps me a loyal customer.

I really really like this device. However, when I initially purchased it I ran into some issues with the handle breaking while in a resting state.

I would highly recommend this item as it helps when making tons of pancakes much easier. Now with the improved material it should be able to withstand the test of time and use!

Question: Great gift for any fisherman armature or pro

Was so thrilled to get this. My husband loves fishing and electronic gadgets. Win win.
These are his comments.
Very easy to set up. As little as charging, Downloading the fishing pro app to my phone, dropping into the water and linking my wifi.
I tried to use it in my pool to test it. I think the concrete played tricks on the sonar. In 8 feet it registered 25 feet and it showed fish on the screen.
Well, that got me curious about lake bottoms and immediately I was driving to my favorite fishing hole.
I tied it onto 100 feet of twine and threw it out into the water. There was a sonar activation issue. upon pulling it back in, it started working. Detected roughly the correct depth and I saw a few fish on the screen.
Threw it back out again and had no issues with it working right away.
It's going to take me a little while to figure out how to adjust all of the settings to my liking and to get used to using.
The instructions are informative. I watched a few youtube videos that helped me figure it out easier.
It comes with a charger cable with adapters for the wall outlet and a car charger. The car charger has 2 ports so you can charge this and your phone at the same time.
There is a waterproof bag that is heavy duty and snaps closed tightly. No worries about water getting to the phone. I have a Samsung 6 and there is about 1/2" space all the way around my phone. Just to give you and idea of the size.
The bag has elastic Velcro straps to secure to an arm or somewhere in the boat. There is also the option of a lanyard to hang your phone on your neck.
The bag did not interfere at all with swiping my phone screen.
All in all this is a very affordable cool gadget. I cannot wait to use it again.

The bluetooth keyboard case fits nicely and it pairs easily. It doesn't come with much documentation, but its not to hard to figure out.  Although some things are just easier to do onscreen, it does pretty good for light note taking and basic maneuvering on the screen. It does take a little getting used to, the size of the keys and the feel are VERY different from a full size keyboard. All in all it does what I wanted it for. I think it is worth the price

Awesome.  I'm surprised mine still works with as much abuse and sweat it's been exposed to.  That said, it's been exposed to a lot of abuse and sweat and still works great!  I hope it never breaks.  I will cry.

I came across this book in my local library and was immediately impressed by Dunlop's beautiful and accurate description of the "Thousand Year Eggs". It is indeed a very difficult flavor to write about. As a native Cantonese and an enthusiastic cook, I probably will never be interested in a Chinese recipe book written by an English woman but this book is no recipe book. Dunlop takes us through a journey of cutural discovery, as well as her self discovery. She blends culture critique and food appreciation together so seamlessly. I especially appreicate her observations that even I never noticed. She is bold, both in terms of her taste and her writing. There is no need to discuss "authenticity", because she already mentioned that every place has its OWN authentic cooking. She immersed herself in a very different country and witnessed the drastic changes of China in the past 20 years. Thanks Fuchsia, I will introduce your book to my Chinese blog readers.

Question: Very good short course truck for bashing!

Very good short course truck for bashing. The high chassis makes it difficult to race competitively, but for a backyard truck, it is great. I have had this truck for a little over two years and have had a few issues, but overall it is very durable.

First Issue - The hex grub screw came loose on the pinion gear which caused it to slip and move around, this caused it to strip the spur gear. This was after about 10 hours of use. I contacted ECX (Horizon) and they were very quick to ship out a new spur and pinion. I put a small drop of loc-tite on the screw, and this has not been a problem since.

Second Issue - This was mostly my fault, but while performing jumps with the truck, I went wide open throttle before I hit the ground, so the wheels were spinning at full rpm when it landed. This caused the one of the rear axles to twist and break loose. I called ECX (Horizon) and let them know and they sent out a new axle to replace the old one. I have since switch to aftermarket Traxxas axles and have had no problem with them.

Overall, I have only had two issues and Horizon was very quick to send replacement parts. I have a few other RC cars/trucks (Traxxas and Redcat) and this has been the most durable by far.

Great little movie for the collection if you're into Praise Baby. Great for background noise, but wouldn't depend on it to lull your child to sleep. The music is a bit chipper at the beginning and then gradually gets softer toward the end. There is some animation, nature scenes and babies going to bed. It's nice for winding down, but not something that is guaranteed to put your baby to bed (at least we didn't use it for that purpose).

Great book for the grieving of the loss of a beloved.  The author rambled occasionally but she has a good point of view and ended the book correctly

Try sending the right brand!! I ordered these, because I prefer them over Terry's, but I got the truly dreadful Brach's version instead! While it was the right color, looked like dark chocolate,  it tasted more like sickeningly sweet wax! I actually spat it out, it was so bad. It was like picking up a piece of fruit from a bowl on the table at a friend's house,  and discovering it's a fake, wax, imitation for decorative display.  Why would anyone want sweet wax instead of real chocolate?!

Question: The Internet for my Internet Essentials class

I ordered two of these books and one was like new and the next one wasn't so nice unless you like the answers to the end of chapter exercises already answered.  I sold the one with the answers to a fellow student.  I should have ordered more as some students still needed a book.  I have finished the class and the illustrations lead you to know more than I knew previously about alot of things.  The problem with the internet things is the timing is so changing on the internet that it would be hard to keep up with some things like Google changed some of the way they do things in order to keep us on our toes.  I really liked learning about other web browsers and learned there is a lot more information out there to be found.  Security is a great thing to learn about and I would like to learn more and more up to date information also, because that area is always getting more difficult to protect our private information from thieves.  Very informative book.

The treadmill was broken when it was delivered to our home.  We were told not to send it back, but to contact Weslo customer service.  After a 30 wait time we finally spoke with a live person.  The cover was cracked and the motor damaged.  They told us they would sent out replacement parts.  The parts arrived, but they needed specialized tools which we had to purchase and luckily my husband is handy or this would still be in pieces.  Very disappointed that we were not sent a brand new machine, as that is what we paid for.

Question: Good for gentle use by a beginner

Good for any beginner getting into carving. Wasn't happy that some of the tools arrived with rust on them. Also, not made for mallet use in oak; I bent the edge on some of the tools making them useless unless I put them on a grinder for a bit. They also required a good bit of sharpening out of the box...way more than better made brands require.

This is a great book for stepping up your sales skills.  It's easy to read and comes with exercises to put the strategies you learn into practice right away.  It has an emphasis on better using the phone to connect with customers and the advice is spot-on.  I highly recommend it to anyone in sales as well as small business owners.

A piece of junk. Worked perfectly for 6 weeks, then shut itself off one day while on the charger (only used Asus charger) and would not turn back on again. Always carried it in a very rugged case with a full screen protector. Have sent it back to the company. Terrible customer service--wanted to charge me $25 to send it in and a $345 hold on a credit card for "rush" service. Going to go buy a Samsung tonight-it may be twice the price but at least it will work! This was a $300 mistake all the way around. I expect more for what I paid than a phone that works for 6 weeks.

I heard the song LOVE INFERNAL on some radio station and was immediately thrilled by the sound of Poisonblack. I ordered the album directly from amazon. The songs on this great album incorporates all that we love about the catchiest songs Paradise Lost and Type O Negative have unleashed upon the world. Poisonblacks premiere release is as good as HIM but heavier. If you like melodic metal and the above mentioned bands, invest in this album.

Question: this is way better than the cheap-o ones you can find in discounted ...

this is way better than the cheap-o ones you can find in discounted stores. It is soft and cushy.

The metal is thin and flexes easily so they don't hold the bike. The rubber to prevent the metal from scratching the bike rim is very thin and slides off easily. After putting the bike on one time the spoke cut right through. I purchased five four our family bikes (all sizes). They don't hold even the smallest one very well as the triangle portion flexes downward and the bike slips off. I wouldn't recommend them.

Bought this for my pint-sized 6 year old who thinks she's a big girl. This size fit her and her school items perfectly. I also like that it's not kiddy looking - it will last her a long time :)

Slow start full of "what I'm going to do for you".  Also very dramatic with too many adjectives.  Reading it made me feel annoyed.  I just had to stop.

Question: nice product for good price

got what we were expecting, nice looking, loved the storage. I may buy another 1 in future

If I could give it 3.5 / 5 stars I would've, but since I can't I sprung for 4 / 5. Breakfast of Champions didn't really leave a profound effect on me, but that's not to say I didn't enjoy the ride, because I thoroughly liked it, especially towards the end. It's basically a list of complaints about planet earth and the human race and the United States of America, with some assemblage of plot mixed in between. But what really makes the book worth the time is the last 100 pages or so. I won't spoil anything for the people who haven't read it yet, but I can only compare what he does to "breaking the 4th wall" in TV or plays; and I'll just leave it at that. It's very uniquely Vonnegut.

Question: Value and protection for your Note 4

This is a great value priced case for the Galaxy Note 4. The Design is fun and has a great graphic look. Adding minimal bulk the case feels sturdy and looks like it will provide good coverage/protection to the screen and lens all while leaving easy access to ports and the on board stylus. The included screen protector was easy to apply and seems to be of good quality and while I have yet to use the included cleaning sticker it looks interesting and should prove useful for this and other devices. The included stylus is a nice compact size and well made, while I do not use it with this phone (since the note 4 comes with its own stylus) it was a nice extra that I was able to now put to good use with my son for his tablet.

The only downside I have found to this case is that its design is the opposite of many out there there the main case around the phone is a plastic shell (the pink in this design) and then there is a rubberized skin cover that goes over it (black and white chevron in the style i purchased). The rubberized part being on the outside is great for feel and grip but because it is a stretchier material than the plastic layer it sometimes will get pulled away a bit on the edges causing you to have to settle it back into place (it does not come off in a way that affects its ability to protect the phone). Happily it doesn't happen too frequently so for the price and overall quality I think it is a pretty minor thing.

PS: I have the Sprint version of the phone and all of the cut outs such fit perfectly no blocking of any ports, lenses, or microphones.

I always use Lonely Planet when I travel to a foreign country, especially when traveling Europe.  Aside from the hotel booked on the first and last night, everything was at our discretion.  I was in Iceland during the "off season" (first week of May) and had 4 travel books at my disposal between me and my travel partners.  This one was especially useful when looking for guesthouses/hostels/hotels and restaurants.  Loved the "hot spring" route they have in here: I would not plan a trip around hot springs, but it was awesome to have a comprehensive route to refer to so we could check out a hot spring that was on our path.  As always, Lonely Planet provides useful information on culture, history, due/don'ts and must see's.  Still my favorite travel guide.  Definitely have this on your Iceland trip, even if you have a guided trip with an itinerary already planned.  You can learn a lot about this country and each town/area from the book alone.

Question: Both the adults and kids love it

I purchased this for my 5 yo and almost 3 yo old sons for Christmas.  It was a huge hit with both the adults and the kids in the family.  Everybody really loves playing with it.  We haven't had any problems so far with any of the doors or hinges.  I mostly love that it is a beautiful toy and doesn't require batteries, but love seeing the kids enjoy using it so much.  I purchased separate Knights and other figures at a store.  They work well with the castle and the kids somehow find a way to play with even bigger toys that don't really fit.  They use their imaginations, which I like.

I'd like to buy six more of these.  Very reliable and works well for my Nexus 6P.

I am a huge fan of love letter and play it often with my wife.  I was hoping for a game with some similarities.  This game doesn't fit that niche well.  It's all about bluffing and doesn't really work with two players very well.  I can imagine with a larger group it would be fun.

Question: Fits and Looks GREAT!

Husband wears it everywhere. A year later and still looks just like the picture. Also has a nice weight to it.

All I can say is WOW! The large assortment of natural and synthetic brushes is great for anyone getting into painting, students or anyone wanting to add to their collection of brushes. There is a variety of sizes in round or flat brushes with long handles. When I opened them up, I could not believe the quality of these brushes for the price the seller is selling them for, plus the seller gives you a portable canvas carrying wrap to keep your brushes in. When I pulled on the brushes, not one of the bristles came out. One thing I learned over the years of buying paint brushes is to keep them in good condition so you do not have to keep buying them. Read on if you want to know this information. To keep your paint brushes in good condition you should always clean your brush immediately after using it. You might be tempted to leave a dirty brush for a while and grab another but do not do this. If you neglect cleaning them, they will be garbage. If you are not going to paint for awhile than you need to clean your brushes with soapy water (dish soap) or shampoo. Also, make sure to get the soap thoroughly into the bristles of the brush all the way down to the ferrule. Make sure to clean the base of the bristles because the paint residue will eventually wreak the shape of your brush and your brush tip will become spread apart until it no longer holds its shape. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water until there is no more paint or suds left. Never store your brushes vertically in water or solvent. This can permanently misshape the bristles, bending them or spreading them out so they no longer come to a point. Also, the solvent you clean your oils in, can eat away the glue inside ferrule holding the bristles to the handle and the water you clean acrylics or watercolors in, can eventually cause the wooden handle to swell or crack. Store clean brushes in the rolled up canvas and keep the canvas vertically brush-side-up or horizontally. I depend on reviews myself when I order products and will only write an honest review with the knowledge that I have about a product. I receive this product for a discounted price in exchange for my honest review.

Question: Nice lightweight pomade

This is a really nice pomade. Lightweight and smooth like I expected.  I'm docking a star just for the smell, It is tolerable though. The fragrance almost has a burnt/campfire smell to it, not tobacco.  This is a lightweight pomade, not heavy. Don't expect anything crazy from this product.  It gives my hair a nice natural look.

Just make sure that you check the sizing chart on the Lake website: [...].  The sizing is slightly different, but the Lake website is what you want to look at for specific EURO sizing.  Overall I ordered a size 10 expecting a 43 EURO.  Received the 10 but the tongue was printed with a EURO 44.  Happy so far with the fit.  Will post later after they have some miles on them.

Question: Good-Looking Sun Protection, But Buy One Size Smaller Than Normal

I purchased 2 of these shirts for a recent hiking trip.  The key thing you need to know when ordering is that they run one size too big.  I normally wear size Large shirts, and the Medium Columbia shirt fit me perfectly.

PROS:
*Very attractive design
*Nice material
*UPF 50+ sun protection
*Good ventilation
*Can wear as long-sleeve or short-sleeve (sleeves can be rolled up and buttoned into place above elbow)

CONS:
*Size runs one size too large (if you normally wear a Large shirt, order the Medium)
*Material not quite as nice as Outdoor Research

For a recent trip, I purchased 2 Columbia shirts, and my son purchased 2 comparable shirts from Outdoor Research.  I liked my shirts, but was jealous of his.  I rate the Columbia shirts 4 stars, but the Outdoor Research shirts were 5 stars.  The key differences were the fit (Outdoor Research shirts run true-to-size) and the material (the Outdoor Research shirts seemed to use a higher quality, nicer looking material).  But the Columbia shirts were less expensive than the Outdoor Research shirts, so I am not unhappy with my purchase.  I expect to get many years of use from my Columbia shirts.

I don't know if I just happened to get a bad one or not, but the motor was SO loud, there is no way my baby would have been able to fall asleep. Returned this as I have no idea if this is a common issue.

Question: Interesting and exciting!

Terrific book! I couldn't put it down, and I was so torn because I didn't want it to end, but also couldn't stand to not know what would happen next.
Wonderful, realistic and interesting characters.
I can't wait for more from this author!

Work's well with my many BINKS HVLP spray guns (MACH 1, MACH 1 SLA, and M1G) when spraying heavier waterborne materials with larger fluid and air nozzles .  So strange that this "regulator"  is recommended  for use with HVLP guns rather than the more expensive diaphragm models.  They don't publish flow rates on their regulators and the diaphragm regulators don't flow enough scfm to atomize with larger air caps.  They will tell you that the guns may require up to 22.5 scfm with 95 or 97 air caps, but they don't tell you that their higher priced diaphragm regulators have maximum flow rates of 10 or 15 scfm!  Pretty angry that it took using a $25.00 regulator rather than a $60.00 regulator to get my $500.00 & $600.00 spray guns to operate properly.  I have wasted over $500.00 over the years buying and rebuilding diaphragm regulators.  There should be a note that this is the only one BINKS recommends for their HVLPs and also not to use the pricier diaphragm units.  I only discovered this after switching from solvent borne (thinner) materials to water borne (heavier) and several calls to tech service because it is not very clear in the product information materials.  I always assumed that the more expensive diaphragm regulators would flow more air than the cheaper  air valve "regulators".  They don't.

Question: But wow is this one a train wreck full of nonsensical plot lines and just a horrible story to read

How is this book ranked so high?  Did anybody actually read it?  I am a big fan of the Earthise series.  But wow is this one a train wreck full of nonsensical plot lines and just a horrible story to read.

Spoilers:  Seriously, was this just Daniel Arenson sitting down and thinking of worst case scenarios for Marco?  I just don't get it.  In 2016 if someone close to you dies you will probably find out within hours no matter where you are in the world.  But 200 years in the future Marco doesn't find out for 3 weeks? He doesn't have anyone close to his family,  not a grade school friend, nobody would contact the military?  What kind of lazy writing is that? I know what Daniel was thinking.  How can we make it worse?  How about they are going to tear down his home.  Why they would tear down perfectly good buildings when so many need to be rebuilt.... I don't know but whatever.  Tear it down and leave a bunch of stuff inside.  How can we make Marco's life worse? How about the girl he saved the world with decides to dump him.  I mean they only planned their life together and he alone pretty much made her not want to commit suicide.  But lets have her dump him.  A page should do.  Anyone of these are ridiculous.  All 3 of them together ruins the book.

And you want to know what..... They are not even the most egregious leaps of "WTF is going on" in the book.

1.) They are at war for over 50 years losing over 50% of the earth's population.  Lets not forget.  They were attacked by the alien species.  They were continuously attacked FOR 50+ YEARS and even during the last battle, the alien species attacked earth vigorously.  But just 4 years later not even a generation.  Everyone hates the vets?  And when I say everyone I mean everyone....oh except the neo nazi's.  Of course the only logical people in the world are the neo nazi's  makes perfect sense.

2.) why did they market Haven so hard?  What is the motivation here?  Why lie to get people there when there is really no work and no prospects.  I would understand if it was a community that needed cheap labor.  But it is not.  Haven citizens don't seem to want all the immigrants. The corporations don't seem to want them.  So why the marketing ploy?

3.)  After 5 years in the military and being THE heroes of the final attack.  They didn't make any contacts that could help them out just a bit and get them on their feet? With what they did you would think the Military would keep track of them and help them without prompting.  It is so illogical that everything else in the book was kind of laughable. Wait they have plenty of money to get on their feet but they blew it on a one way ticket to Haven.

4.)  Why is everyone in the government inept or corrupt?  Didn't he already play this card in the first trilogy?  He not only played it once more but at least twice more and those are the only two we know about.  Nobody else that has clearance said anything?

The PTSD stuff could have been very moving if you forget all the other BS in the book but it is hard to ignore all the holes.  By the end of the book I was kind of openly cheering for the aliens because he made everyone in humanity so retarded.  When neo-nazi's are the voice of reason and you are turning to science fantasy instead of science fiction, you know you have lost your way.

Seriously Daniel Arenson,  a ghost armada?  If you are going to turn Lord of the Rings why not bring back Wizards too.

Question: Sound awesome on my 2015 breakout

Sound awesome on my 2015 breakout! Great as always from vance and hines. Only exhaust I've ever had on my bikes! Installs in minutes if you have mechanical skills

I was sceptical to read this book because it was assigned to me to read for one of my criminal justice courses. However, I was really absorbed in the story of the Native American Tribe, the Lakotas. The book is written from an "Americanized" point of view. It tells a story of the authors great grandmother and her life as a Lakota woman. There are many fun and interesting things that happen to the Turgle Lung Woman. She speaks of her courting rituals, battle rituals, labor divisions between men and women, children roles.
There are interesting stories about homosexuality, adultury, death, commitment to the tribe and war.
Definitely an interesting book that contains historical facts and the culture of the Lakota tribe.

Question: I really believe that this is the best album that he's ever created

I've waited a long time for this kind of album from Keith. I've always felt he had more to bring to us, and he has! I really believe that this is the best album that he's ever created. So many influences can be heard in this group of songs, bringing to mind Keith's love of all music. You'll hear country, the blues, pop, rock - it's all there in a voice that so many of us love. I can't wait to hear these songs live along with some of his "oldies". If you have never bought a Keith Urban album before, now is the time! You won't have any regrets!

This is a great collection of all newly written songs, Carly's first release of new material in 8 years. Her voice is fantastic, and the songs range from fun (This Kind Of Love), to personal (To Soon To Say Goodbye), to just plan strage (People Say A Lot). And with that cover, she looks great too! Not Carly's best, but it's fun and inventive, I liked it a lot.

Question: my uncle loves dark chocolate so I bought this for ...

my uncle loves dark chocolate so I bought this for him. I cannot remember, but I think this box ranges from 63% to 75% dark. Don't take my word, maybe it says something in the description.

I actually loved this book and found it hard to put down, the subject "flying saucers" is fascinating.  The only thing that kept me from giving it 5 stars is that it is suppose to be a non-fiction book and all the amazing claims have little or no research reference to back the claims up.  There could be good reasons for this omission, as far as I know the Government still does not acknowledge the existence of flying saucer's, I know that I'd like to see some documented proof.

If you have ever gazed up into the night sky and watched what seemed like stars darting about in a strange manner and wondered, could it be,  you have to read this book.  I have recomended it to all my friends and family,  to me it is a must read.

I'm very hard on my tablet plus 2 kids under 7 years old like to play on it. I've dropped it on the back, the front and on the sides. No cracks or scratches. It's also easy to take off to clean it up. Tried the cheaper covers and ended up needing a new tablet.

I bought this balls for my son. He is 8 months old and loves playing with them.
These four balls are well made: very attractive for the colors, hold them is easy because they are under-inflated, my baby loves put in his mouths for chowing them and crawl they after when rolled away.
I guess we will use for a while finding new ways to play...

The item appears to be well constructed. It is sturdy and good for outdoor usage. It washes quite easily and is water resistant. A good buy.

If you buy this book on kindle voyager...beware . the transition from one character to another's actions and thoughts have no  separation in the text format.  you are reading along..into  the story and then you realize a sentence or three back the character changed.  you stop ...do a mental shake..reorient  and move on.  by chapter 10 it is really annoying.

Question: Nice case. But the issue I have with it ...

Nice case. But the issue I have with it is that the black plate on the face came off easily when I received it.

I'm a pre-engineering student taking a mechanics of materials course at a community college. I find this book tough to follow along and understand. I read through a section, and ask myself what I read, and I dunno.

I find it easier to understand other textbooks with more examples. There are examples for each chapter, but there are some things I believe are still missing, which makes some of the later problems more difficult. I agree with another reviewer somewhere, which says that having more than one text helps your understanding, so I will find another text that provides additional explanations, and (hopefully) matches my learning style. I'd like at least a partial Solution Manual, which would be extremely helpful, but thats probably asking too much.

<Edit - 11/1/09>
Now as a working professional in the aerospace industry (and graduate student), I reference this book for some simpler topics that I've forgotten. The examples are good, though I'd still prefer more. It helps having more experience with the subject :)

Question: Can you truly fall in love with someone youve only talked with?

I received this book as an arc. This was a great quick read for me because I couldn't put it down. I was anxious to reads this book because Ive loved the other books in the series. Lily is a young woman from California who has had a really trying life with a lot heartache than joy. She begins a  conversation with a mysterious man named August after she asks the forum for advice about her current relationship. Slowly these two begin to have feelings for each other through online chats, texts, and phone calls. August promises to come for her and marry her several times before he finally can make it. She agrees to marry him and fly away to his home without knowing his last name or where shes going. Once she gets to his home, she realizes she is trapped there and that he omitted crucial information about his family. No matter how angry she is about his omissions she finds herself still in live with August and wanting to marry him. Things seem to go fine for a bit, but his family tends to throw disrupt their happiness in ways she cant even imagine.  She finds ways around that until his father reveals Augusts darkest secret yet. Now Lily has to face her newest reality...believe in the love they share or the truth Augusts father told her.

Before I had purchased this core rulebook, I was sure that it would be too hard to play (probably like many of you).  Many of the roleplaying community stated their discomfort when playing the game.  This discomfort was caused by not clear understanding of the rules.  White-wolf and the authors should have made it clear that this game was intended to be concentrated on, more than the other world of darkness games.  Other than that fact, I thought that this game was overall, pretty good.  Like I said earlier, make sure that you are devoted and will study the game to clearly understand it, that way you will enjoy your puchase throughly.

Question: An engaging account of the dark side of self-help.

My 30 years as a consultant, coach and public speaker were much like those of your father. Your research into the history and flaws of self-help was the most comprehensive and sincere body of work on this subject that I have ever read. I had the pleasure to serve as a facilitator for both Steven Covey and Patrick Lencioni prior to my retirement. Their intellect, integrity and generosity were genuine, unlike the "soup sellers" of the business. Thanks to your interview on National Public Radio, I gave myself the gift of reflecting on a life of service and caring.

I purchased this product thinking it was going to be working with no problems but just a year later the printed documents started to come with indentations all over the left side of the page. Brother is not sending a technician I have to take it to a service repair. The ink is very expensive as well. I do not recommend this item at all, also it takes close to a minute to print the first page so when I have to print a receipt for a client we have to wait while other printers are faster.
