Question: Call of the Wild has company

I guess every century needs a great, great book about dogs, and this one only had to wait five years to acquire one.  This novel not only features well-developed, fascinating canine characters, but also is full of suspense.  In the middle, I literally could not stop reading because I HAD to find out what was going to happen to these wonderful dogs!  In the end, the author has managed to use the sensitive subject of death as a vehicle to provide lessons for all of us humans on how to enrich our lives and  care for each other.  This was truly one of my great reading experiences; if you read it, you will love dogs AND the human spirit forever.

I am really happy I was able to order this as they no longer are making it! GRAB IT NOW if you can, The 3 pots are really pretty and everything is included to start your Herb garden. If you can buy it while it last!

Question: I was hoping to spend more than 5 minutes revisiting the world I love. I would not recommend it as an introduction ...

I saw "short story based in the world of The Singers of Nevya" and was so excited I didn't pay attention to the page count, which is 7. Probably a bit short to pay $.99. I was hoping to spend more than 5 minutes revisiting the world I love. I would not recommend it as an introduction to the Singers of Nevya either.

A Sane Woman's Guide to Raising a Large Family ~ A Real Life Book For Real Life Moms.

When I saw this book, I knew right away I just had to have it.

If you are looking for a book full of Bible verses and spiritual encouragement, then this is NOT the book for you. I LOVE books that have Bible verses and spiritual encouragement, and I bought one of those at the same time as this one. But what I needed was the message this book contained. This book is full of practical wisdom and advice from a mom of ten kids.

Right away I appreciated the fact that the author, Mary Ostyn, although having ten kids herself, realized that a "large" family in this day and age really consists of anyone with three or more children. She wasn't snobby about those that had less children than she does. Her ideas are tried and tested ideas that work not only for her ten children, but for families with three or four.

I felt that "A Sane Woman's Guide to Raising a Large Family" to be THE most encouraging practical book that I have read yet on raising a family. The Spiritual encouragement books have their place, but so also do the books like this full of practical encouragement from Christian moms, as it is often the practical that bogs us down and begins to affect the spiritual. I find that if I am not so overwhelmed practically, I am not so overwhelmed spiritually either.

I don't believe that there are many books out there like this one, and the ones that are out there aren't as good. As a Christian mom, I'd rather read practical advice from a Christian mom. All moms, Christian or otherwise, have wisdom to share, but I believe that Christian moms will have even richer wisdom to share.

Mrs Ostyn's book is fulfilling a great need for the older women to teach the younger to love their husband and children, as they are instructed in Titus 2.

I also liked the fact that Mrs Ostyn talks about how she integrated her adopted children into her family. For any mom who has adopted or is interested in adopting, this is a great book also.

There are plenty of ideas in this book, such as: how to make more space rather than just moving to a bigger house, which toys are a good buy and which are not, cutting back on finances, kid's activities, vacations with a large family, things to worry about and things to just let slide, etc. This advice is from a mom who is living the daily reality of ten children...six of whom are adopted. It's a real life book for real life moms.

Question: I absolutely love this generator

I absolutely love this generator... yea I know it is $1k and it is a good amount for a 2k generator.  I ordered this and within a week took it on a camping trip for a few days and I ran like a champ and sips fuel.  it is Honda quality.... I had a 20 year old e2200x and it finally gave out (because I was running two many things on it, my fault).  I love Honda!!!!!

Sizing is completely wrong. I ordered 0-3 months and this was huge! It seems to be sized for a child a year old. It's also cheap and made in China. Don't buy!

Question: This is the worst paced book i have ever read...

So i bought this because of all the glowing reviews AND the television series they are about to make, i love the law and justice, i love mysteries and i love the expansive setting in which this takes place. This is literally more a book about being a bitter washed up old man, and thats it. More time is spent on his love interest and his family and friends than the actual murders and investigation.

Where do i start? He is not Cormac Mccarthy so he cannot get away with jumping around and not telling you who is speaking at any given time.

The first 100 pages, where the book is supposed to "hook" you, is the most boring 100 pages ive ever read, two pages are dedicated to the murder and then after that its "he went to the bar, he drove his truck, someone asked him about a hunting problem on his land, he is not happy with his relationship with his daughter, he has a native american friend who goes running with him" and thats IT. So stupid. The dialogue is not even entertaining or witty, just old man jokes you would expect to see on a 50+ tee shirt fishing trip, horrible book. And i read alot and im not very picky, but this so bad.

The author really should have used a coauthor.  I'm sure her experience was profound but her book was BORING!  Her narrative/technical document style was not at all engaging and I felt her insights were elementary for anyone having done some spiritual seeking.

Question: My favorite watch. Looks very professional.

While the minute and your hands are a little tough to see, I believe that this watch is overall a great addition. I've had mine for exactly a year now, wearing it about every other day and the band is still in good quality. I just had to replace the battery a week ago, so the other reviews of dead batteries are accurate.

I was fore-warned that this book was un-putdown-able, and that proved true. The suspense is compelling, and the knowledge that the so-observant and sensitive Claire, as in-crush with her father as he is in blind enchantment with her beautiful mother--enters the story at age nine, and only reaches age eleven by its end--is something the stunning ending brings back to you rather too late for your escape. Total immersion happens to the kind of reader who will get on this train at its quiet beginning, when Claire and Sydney stand outside the hospital waiting to glimpse Claire's baby sister, and she tells us they can't go in because she is nine and Sydney is "colored." Hello, we are back in a decade when Southerners might still use that term. Time and place have already begun shifting for us, and they will shift even more deeply into a small-town southern landscape and--the state of--well, maybe Alabama-- but definitely disorientation. That last word is the reason I'd have to re-read the book I couldn't put down, to discover what state it is set in--because it had held me in a luscious, total escape of suspense. Deep inside, one may recognize it as pretty much the suspense of any childhood, in its near complete powerlessness, its dependence on two adults in whatever fallen version of love and sexuality they contend with. The dream of a companionate marriage is already a state of insanity, so it doesn't require much aberration for the mother in this one to be quite angrily depressed, and a survivor of one or two ineffective stays at a mental hospital--one for which modern readers can be grateful it was, at worst, only ineffectual. Young Claire's determination to provide her baby sister Odille, known as Sweetie, with a nurturing and safe infancy provides the moral compass that is sorely needed in "Scott and Zelda's" marriage. I have to stop here, because summaries are deadly, and this novel is indeed living and full of life. A great poet once described a poem as an imaginary garden with a real toad in it. Well this imaginary garden, one frozen solid in an atypical southern winter storm, is extremely real, at times, raising one's hopes for an ultimate triumph of authentic life. For example, Claire, the great eavesdropper and constant, imprisoned observer, once opposes her father in her mind, as she hears him arguing with her mother. "You can't talk to her like that," she thinks, "as if she is just any person. She is different, and needs a special language to reach her." I paraphrase the quote, but it emerged as a passage of truth and mercy missing elsewhere in anyone's attitude toward Claire's mother. Others like that are striking and--as Edward Gibbon would say--"insensibly"-- misleading. When you are a child, you don't even think you know where you are going--with "them" the ever bewildering adults; and most of all, you cannot believe what you might have to remember doing.

This was such a bargon!!  It arrived within 7 days and came with a 15in flat screen.  I purchased it and was amazed at the how well it worked out of box.  No issues and has continued to work for at least the last 4 months.  I am really happy with this.

Question: A Forty Buck Daily Driver!

Considering the, "bang for the buck", that this throw-away device delivers, this may be the best $40.00 I have ever spent on Amazon. I noticed all the complaints about limited ram, inadequate storage space and so on. Come on!  This is a forty dollar device!  You want high tech, metal body, super display, go spend five hundred dollars or...buy this:

Stick a pay-as-you-go SIM in it (don't bother with data); add a 16gb SD Card; clean out everything you really don't use (leaves about a gb for apps); download Google Maps for navigation and you have an excellent daily driver!

  o Telephone and texting
  o Off-line Navigation (download selected areas from google maps)
  o Camera for accidents or shopping surprises, etc. (Even at 3mp the camera can do barcodes)
  o A photo viewer of your...

Previous reviewer tips I want to emphasize...
  o To extend battery life: turn off wi-fi unless you have full time signal available and need it;
  o Maps use a lot of battery too, but you usually can turn off the display and go with the audio;

Something breaks...throw it out and get another.
My only complaint was that Black case was not available so I chose white and colored it black with a magic marker. :-)

Kevin's latest book is a blessing for both beginner and advanced bloggers. It is a massive resource covering the construction, maintenance and promotion of your blog that offers links to hundreds of valuable online tools.

I wish I had this book when I first started blogging - perhaps I'd still have some hair left. Still, I'm finding daily use for it now in my blogging.

Great job, Kevin!

Question: love the length though

Fits snugger than expected, love the length though.  It would be better if the straps were adjustable.

Let it first be said that I hold the so-called Young Adult and Teen genres to the same standards that I hold books aimed at an older audience. Just because kids and teens happen to be younger does not mean their books should be of lesser quality in any way.

And so that's what I have in mind as I write this review--which I may rewrite one day in the future, after I read the other novels in what could potentially be an incredible series. But whether this Homelanders series becomes another Great in the realm of YA/Teen really rather depends. It depends on how complex, both in terms of plot and thematic concerns, this series becomes.

Should The Homelanders fulfill the potential I sensed in the 3 hours in which I devoured it (we'll get there later), I'd rewrite this review in a heartbeat and give The Last Thing I Remembered a hearty 5-star.  However--and I don't want to spoil anything--if Homelanders doesn't go to that level of depth that it could achieve, it'll get a 3-star for being a run-of-the-mill, America-rules-EveryoneElse-drools thriller. I'm not a fan of those whatsoever.

But since I haven't read the sequels, I'll tell you what I do know about The Last Thing I Remember.

1. It's ridiculously fast-paced. It took me 3 hours to read, but I was reading late at night and into the morning, where I was reading at 2/3rds if not half speed.

2. It's 100% kid-friendly over the age of, say, 10. No bad words, no suggestive language, the main character is a morally-grounded good student.

3. It was a lot of fun to read, part of its appeal. I found myself trying to think of all the reasons Charlie woke up in this chair. Aliens, wizards, alternate universes, ultracomplex conspiracies. It gets your imagination going, that's for sure.

In the end, though, I still struggle to arrive at a conclusion. I can tell you that I recommend this book, even if just for a fun read to kill a few hours, to both adults and teens, but whether I can say if it's "good" or "bad" just...depends.

It could be any number of bad Bond movies, or like CSI Miami, where the main character can do no wrong, where America and the rest of the West can do no wrong, like any number of thrillers that features a good ole American boy facing down stereotypical Nazis and Russian Communists, only a bit more modernized.

Or, The Last Thing I Remember could join the ranks of the Bourne novels/movies, or any other number of fantastic thrillers/action works.

If truth be told, I have a lot of hope for this series. Even though it is somewhat predictable, and even though certain elements revealed in the second half of the book (I won't say which, because I don't want to spoil them) left me worrying that this series will go the shallow route, I have reason to suspect--I see the potential--for Homelanders to be, in a word, awesome.

Foremost among those clues is the fact that I'm so determined not to spoil anything at all. And with that said, I'm not going to drag this thing out any longer, because I don't know. I just don't know how this series is going to go, and unfortunately, that's dominating any thoughts I have on the book itself.

Question: Great Price and Quality.

The tarp is camo on one side and green on the other.  It has plenty of grommets.  I purchased the tarp for hammock camping.  It is just the right size to cover the hammock, allows plenty of space to keep my gear dry, and gives good ventilation.  I am considering getting another for closing off the "a-frame" portion of my setup for stormy conditions.

These are wonderful!  I love Toms because they look nice enough to wear to work with slacks and cute enough for a summer music festival!  These are the best kind because of the breathe-ability factor.  My feet start suffocating in canvas Toms, but they catch a nice breeze with every step in these.  The perfect summertime close-toed shoe.  P.S. the toe is actually fully enclosed so you get the open-air feel without having to worry about offending anyone with your unpainted toesies! ;D

Question: This book will blow you mind.

Arrived just in time. The book makes a whole lot of sense, it ties everything without making a mistake. Very great source of information, you learn a lot, this book will blow your mind. I would by all means recommend this to people.

Three stars because I've definitely read worse.  This doesn't compare to Beachcombers, which I loved & recommend to friends.  It was slow from the beginning & just plodded along, while skipping years here & there.  If you just want an easy beach read this book will do.  If you want a story that will suck you in & make you care about the characters, this is not the book for you.  Very disappointing.

Question: This was a great mystery/police procedural

This was a great mystery/police procedural!  The protagonist's visions made it different from the many books in this genre I've read.  I respect the author's attention to detail and her great skills in researching.  I look forward to reading more from Ms. Heidel!!!  I'm from Sussex County, Delaware, so I am very familiar with the setting and appreciate her local descriptions, too.

An exciting adventure for the three investigators, and actually one of the better of the German stories. The Witch plotline reminded me of old favorites like Vanishing Treasure, Green Ghost and Haunted Mirror, which all had a supernatural bent. I only wish the American series had kept going!

Question: Surf culture meets design

What better way to experience the modern surf culture than to take a look inside of some of the most interesting and influential surfers' homes. As always Indoek delivers a product that's for surfers by surfers. Even if you're not a surfer you'll be inspired by the aesthetic and design of each of these individual's homes. The book is beautifully designed and the content is crafted to a level that makes this a collectors item. Highly recommend! I'd pick one up before they're gone.

Good lord these are beautiful!!!  They are just a little long but it doesn't bother me a bit!  Just a elegant pair of stockings!  Very well made.

Recommended by my dermatologist to help with Roscea. And it has sunscreen to help keep my face safe when outside. Has worked very well for me.

i loved the 5th book. Starboardia has a lot of imagination and can bevery violent for some people. Galxey Queen is really funny and Cyborg Queen is ridiculous. The  Ziblings is my favorite and I think Bolt,Morph,Whipney,and Blaze are very courageous. The Adventures of Blimp Boy is very surprising to Beau Rogers because Conner Bailey knew where the entrance was to the pyrimid and all the other things. Over all I think its a great book.

purchased as a gag gift for my boss for Boss's Day.  It got a great laugh, but he won't eat them so I have no idea how they actually taste.  Good for a joke gift though.

at around 100 bucks you can't really complain, or even at 38 dollars right now (!) but if you need power or you like good sound then move on. This one does the job but not clean and is certainly nothing for enthusiasts. And also one of the two I have quit after about 30 parties (I have them in bridged mode on one speaker - one channel is dead and the power from just the other channel is by far not enough in pa-use)
I thought about getting another one at the current 38 dollars but then again nuh I'll get a real amp this time.....

Question: Great techniques to create change in your mind.

Great book. The author gives you some techniques that you have to practice for 60 to 90 days so it can gets into your subconscious mind. The book is really easy to read it has only like 120 pages with small chapters. I think I finished it in like 2 hours. But remember you have to do the techniques for 60 to 90 days to see some changes in your mind.

I'm used to wearing Banana Republic boxers, but they can be expensive to replace. So, I was so happy that I found these on Amazon.

A pack of 2 boxers that are stylish in neutral colors and cost as little as a cup of coffee, what a deal! The fabric is 100% cotton yet softer than Banana Republic's, but I'd like to draw your attention to the cut of these boxers. They are cut to fit and to compliment your posterior region. They fit me so well that they make me look like an underwear model.

However, their fit can be a drawback if you like "roomy" boxers or if you're not a skinny guy and are on a heavier side. In that case, I'd recommend ordering one size up or two sizes up if you want to account for fabric shrinkage (since cotton always shrinks a little after wash and dry).

Question: One side no longer works

I received these speakers for Christmas & have used them a handful of times. Today, I tried to play something and only one side plays music. The other side cuts in and out. The issue is with the wire connecting the two speakers, I can wiggle it and the sounds goes in and out. Pretty disappointed, it looks like it's been too long to return to Amazon.

An Echo in the Bones is another excellent book in Diana Gabaldon's Outlander series. Everyone who is a fan will no doubt buy it, and be glad that they did.

For everyone else though, here is my review. If you are unfamiliar with the series, then I would not recommend that you start with this book. Ms Gabaldon has included background, but I doubt that you could get a real feel for who the characters are, the things they've survived and the things that they've held on to. (Ms Gabaldon tells wonderful stories, but it is her characters that become impossible to walk away from) Start with Outlander, if you haven't read this series and then go from there.

For those who have read the books, but aren't fans........is that even possible?.....you will probably like it. It is every bit as well written as any of her other work. The plot is hugely complex, the charaters change and grow, the story arc moves forward.....

I did trip over a few speed bumps, however. The author uses a plot device that she used in an earlier book that seemed a little clumsy, and essentially unnecesary. It didn't improve by being used twice. Another reviewer mentioned the many points of view. I don't object to that except from the stand point of its necesarily limiting how much we hear about and from the main characters. Like young Ian. (Yum!)
The largest speed bump, for me, though is the cliff hanger. It should be absolutely against the law for someone who takes three to four YEARS to write a book to end it with a cliffhanger.

Question: Very traditional; use with a little common sense

I have put off reviewing this for weeks because I went up and down on how I felt about the book. After reading the introduction and first chapter, I thought the author, Rosemond, was just insufferable and arrogant as he summarily dismisses several other approaches and even states that ADHD and other disorders are generally overdiagnosed and not really affecting most kids. (And boy does he have it in for T. Brazelton! If you like Brazelton's stuff, do not get this book!)

I skipped to read some of the cases in the back and decided to at least try reading his strategies since several parents were impressed by how well they worked. Having read it, I can't say I fully agree with the extreme approach that he goes straight to. I do agree that the parent should be in control and be consistent and that helps the child learn what to expect and want to behave to avoid privileges being removed. I can't say though that one should go straight to stripping a child's room down to just clothing and a place to sleep, sending them to their room to spend hours on end, or removing the door from the room unless there is an extreme behavioral issue.

I think if you read this and add some of the tips to your parenting it is useful. If you have a child who is having real behavioral difficulty and you've tried the soft approach and the nurturing approach and they haven't worked, this would be worth the read. I will add that this is applicable to kids 5 and up. He mentions his other book for use with disciplining younger kids.

A lovely frame, very solid.  Not at all like the cheap Wal-Mart frames.  You really do get what you pay for when it comes to frames.  The gray cut out mats are a nice touch.  Definitely gets the eyes when guests come over and a lot of good comments.  Even the stock photos in the frame look good enough to keep.  Too bad I didn't visit all those place recently.  If you're looking for a frame to show off a few 4x6 inch photos then the nexxt Trio Frame is a pretty nice choice.

Question: Weird fit, but good quality.

I bought these because it's the best price around for a top and bottom set. They are a strange fit, but perhaps that's my fault for buying unisex. I wish there was the option, for example, to get a medium pants and a large shirt, instead of both being the same size, because my top fits okay, whereas, the pants are huge! I think these scrubs are much better suited for a male, than for a female. The sleeves are down to my elbows and I have to roll the pants waistband so that they aren't so long (I'm 5'7). Overall, I am satisfied with these. Scrubs aren't meant to be fashionable, but they are functional, good quality, and don't fade after being washed a ton.

Book cover is a bit damaged, this wrinkled in some areas. Care should be taken to arrives completely new book.

Question: Acceptable budget monitor (and no HDMI)

As a budget monitor, this 21.5" Dell is fine. Setup is very easy, controls are decent, and it has the ability to set a couple of keyboard shortcuts (to change the brightness, for example). It has display presets to make the colors warmer, cooler, etc., but there wasn't enough improvement on any of the presets to make the display really stand out.

Drawbacks: The viewing angle is mediocre. Blacks are washed out and gray no matter what we adjust. High-res photos look grainy (they look like we didn't get the focus right, even though they look great on other monitors and our 50" TV). And there's no way to adjust the tilt up and down - you're stuck with the monitor at the factory pre-set angle. We also found that the "auto-adjust" feature set up the display poorly, making the display too large for the actual screen (so programs were cut off at the top).

As others have noted, there's no HDMI connection, so you'll need something like a VicTsing Gold-Plated HDMI to VGA Converter Adapter for PC, Laptop, DVD, Desktop and other HDMI Input Devices - Black (VS1-VC38BVT-VD) to connect to pretty much any laptop or computer these days. Even my super-cheap new Acer and median Dell only have HDMI inputs, so Dell's choice here really surprises me.

Good investing information as to why an investor should consider a global diversified portfolio versus sticking with just a domestic plan of US stocks and bonds.

I'm very pleased with my Alpha Grillers Instant Read Thermometer.  It's sooo easy to use, and it has a "Bulletproof Lifetime Guarantee."

Question: Highly recommend this scale for any kitchen, home, office, or restaurant.

Absolutely love Ozeri products! I purchased a wine opener in the past from them and knew I could trust this Kitchen Scale as well. Their products are fantastic quality and look great in the kitchen also! My husband was so pleased with this scale when he opened it on Christmas day. He started "playing" with it in the kitchen immediately!

Update: Almost a year later and the scale is working great! No issues at all! We are a family that splits our meat when we get home from the meat market and we weigh everything before packaging for the freezer. The scale is so easy to use, tare out, and move right along. Since it takes so long to auto-shut off we don't have to worry about having to constantly tare the scale.

Highly recommend this scale for any kitchen, home, office, or restaurant. Easy to clean, sleek design, easy to read screen.

appears very well made, unfortunately was way too short for my Chevy Tahoe, took a long time to get here from china, not worth sending back.

Question: might be better for cats or a larger dog

These were ok.  I have 2 chihuahuas and they were intimidated at first-that's  chihauhau thing.  Anyway, the carpeting is doable.  However, one of my chihuahua's slipped on the plastic part.  These steps did work for my pups.  It's a decent purchase; might be better for cats or a larger dog.

As a teacher in a high school I selected this book for my students only after reading it myself. It was recommended to me by a colleague who had seen the author speak and before reading it I was skeptical. I had read many other books that were written by adults for teens; most were condescending and failed to connect. This book is completely different. Josh Shipp superbly speaks to students on their level, while communicating a powerful message. You can't dominated the world, but you can dominate your world. I will be using this book for character and leadership development in my classroom.

This cable is well made, flexible and appears to be of very high quality.  It is a top-spec cable (as of May, 2009) - ATC certified HDMI v1.3b Category 2 cables for transfer speeds up to 340 MHz (10.2 Gbps).  They support resolutions up to 1600p, refresh rates up to 120 Hz, and 48-bit Deep Color.  I am using two of them to connect a TiVo HD and a DVD player to an 1080p LCD HDTV without issue.  Would definitely purchase again.

I purchased this book and More Don't Panic...three months ago.  At the same time, a local store had a huge sale on chicken, so I spent several hours one Saturday using recipies from these two cookbooks.  First, I had most of the ingredients on hand, and found all ingredients basic and easy to come by.  The recipies themselves were easy to assemble, and instructions were clear and easy to follow.  I made one soup, one dish I could cook in the crockpot at a later date, one that we cooked on the grill then sliced and packaged in small containers, and the others simply required baking on the day you plan to serve.  I love this technique as it provides healty sit down meals for a busy family who prefers not to eat out everynight.  Our daughter is in ballet 3 nights a week and my husband often travels or works late  There is just one BUT, and that is, most of these recipies are very bland.  I have tried about eight recipies but only one was a big hit, the rest were ok and  there was one miss.  So, if you don't mind bland, or are creative enough to spice up these recipies either as you assemble them or when you serve them, this cooking concept is a winner, and if you shop right will also help you save money.  On my first cook day, I made enough to serve for almost two months though I don't use them every day...We usually do a roast chicken which I use for left overs during the week, a few of these freezer meals and some fish that which is easily cooked.  I actually tried another of these assembel and freeze cookbooks, which was supposed to be "gourmet" and found the recipies to be bland as well as did other reviewers.  I think these recipies have potential, however, and hope that the author will continue to experiment.

Question: Very nice, sturdy and user friendly

This is a great product. Bought for a teen for her iPad. I would highly recommend!

Understanding how statistics on unemployment, inflation, gdp, cost of living etc. can be amended and re stated to portray a rosy picture for politicians makes me angry. The developing situation in Japan should be shouted from the roof tops and made known to every buyer of automobiles or electronics. An incredibly well written and simple to understand book.

Question: Perfect porch lighting!

Love these. Just as I expected. Gives the porch a nice warm-light glow.

I am super happy with this product. Taste was woody, but I don't mind it (I have been taking 1.5 tsp daily). It did make a huge difference to my IBS and gastritis, although it didn't cure them. But now I can eat most anything and only experience mild gas with some foods, and no issues with others that caused issues before. I am also happy with the price of the bottle I purchased when compared with other brands.

Question: A very comprehensive and highly interesting book with only the truth about cancer.

A year ago I daily on the Internet was following Ty on his travel around to different countries for there talking with persons about cancer, and how to cure it in other ways than by the use of chemotherapy and/or surgery.

And when I preordered this book I mostly expected that it would be a rewriting about this travel, and that there would be nothing new for me as I already own 50 books about cancer, but instead it turned out to be a book with much new information to me concerning more ways in which to cure cancer. For example, it was interesting to read about cannabis, as we during the last months, in Denmark, have had much writing about cannabis, allowing it for helping sick persons. So, while reading in Tys book I immediately ordered a book about cannabis used against cancer.

Most of my books against cancer have been bought since my wife 4  year ago, went through surgery, after then by mammography was discovered in having at tumor on less than 1/3 of an inch in one of her breasts. And the Thai doctor here in Chiang Mais hospital, especially used by foreigners, told her that if she was waiting more than a week for a surgery then she would die! She was scared by them, and didn't listen to me, and the next day went through the surgery, and a week in the hospital.

One of the following times when she returned home after a control, she then told me that this day 32 women was in the hospital for breast surgery, and all of them would have bout of their breasts removed. The doctors here in Chiang Mai tells the women that this always is necessary! A doctor in Bangkok, which my wife actually has known since the doctor was a child, later told her that it was nonsense what the doctors here in Chiang Mai told her. But she was scared to die in few days, and lost thinking, and thereby contacting other doctors. After this case, and other doctor failures, here in Chiang Mai, also on me, I now own around 450 health and doctor books, most of them bought, and read, during my fighting with doctors here in Chiang Mai, during nearly all of the 14 years I now have lived here.

But again, Tys book was highly interesting, with much more information than I ever had expected, and thereby can see that I have also to buy the first book Ty wrote.

I have a 36' Endeavour TrawlerCat catamaran. It does not have an automatic electrical cord storage system so I have to manhandle the 50' 30amp power cord whenever we connect to shore power. It has always been a real pain trying to coil the cord and then tie it up to keep it neat for storage on the boat. When connected, there can be all this excess cord laying on the dock, just waiting for someone to trip over it.

I discovered the CordPro XL and I love it. It solves all of my problems. It neatly stores the cord when not in use. When I connect to shore power, I just pull out enough to reach the shore connection and the rest remains in the CordPro. I can hang the CordPro on the boat's lifelines and keep it out of the way. When disconnecting from shore, the cord neatly is coiled away and a snap to slip in to the lazarette for storage. No tangles and no mess.

A great product. Well made and sturdy.

The person who melted theirs perhaps should have read the directions about using undersized cords coiled in the holder. Not recommended. Almost any product can abused if used improperly.

No connection to the company other than being a very satisfied user.

Question: will not work with most crimping pliers

These crimp tubes are okay. These will not work with most crimping pliers. You will have to use chain nosed pliers to flatten the tube tight around the string and then either fold with the chain nosed pliers or crimping pliers.

Squeeee!!!!!  This is the first book I've read by Sarah Elizabeth, and I'm hooked!  I need more Holly and Devon stat!  This novella can be read as a standalone, but it is also a prequel to No Strings.  I can guarantee you that after you read it, you will be on pins and needles waiting for No Strings like I am!  Sarah Elizabeth's writing style is just amazing.  She created a beautiful story with this novella and left me thinking of the characters even days after reading it.  I teared up, I laughed out loud with a big smile on my face, and I swooned.  I most definitely recommend reading this book!

Question: Matches the best professional mics in quality

I have used this microphone for several weeks now and I'm so glad I took the chance and purchased it. I was a TV reporter for several years and every station I worked we used Sennheiser, which is a fantastic brand, but as a new business owner I needed something a little more affordable. This Audio-Technica lav matches the quality of the Sennheiser for those of us shooting on DSLRs. I love it!!! Can't recommend it enough.

Question: Fascinating book. I don't always agree with everything the ...

Fascinating book.  I don't always agree with everything the author says, but he continuously makes me think.

My technical aptitude, capability, and experience are well beyond Advanced, yet even after many varying efforts to get this damn thing to even initialize for the very first time I've come up short all but once. And even that basic step level was accomplished only by logging into my router and reviewing the current DHCP clients in order to determine the ip address that had been assigned to this thing then browsing into it directly. But it still took several varying efforts in conjunction with their essentially useless 'Wizard' tool to at long last get it to be recognized by the 'Wizard' tool, which unfortunately seems to be the only way to finally associate this device to your MyDLink account.

WHOA IS MEEE!!! .......... So now that I had finally, painstakingly reached this point, IT STILL WOULDN'T EVEN RECOGNIZE EVEN ONE OF THE THREE D-LINK CAMS ON THE VERY SAME NETWORK!

I'M DONE ! ! ! ! !  I'M COOKED ! ! ! ! !  THIS THING IS GOING BACK IMMEDIATELY! (I have far better things to do with my time than to be the guenie pig for a multi-million dollar company!). (And yes, it is exactly as it seems..... I am very much pissed-off over this!)

Question: Great disposable external DVD drive

I believe I used this device 2 or 3 times.  It worked very well those 2 or three times.  Then it stopped working and has not worked since.  I have had it over 6 months and can not return it.  Essentially I bought it load some programs on a laptop it did; I put it on the shelf in my office and there it sat. I am not a tech person but it seemed simple the first few times I used it.  Pretty much plug n play, then plug no play, then nothing.  I suppose you get what you pay for; I will buy another external dvd drive because I need one but I will not buy this product again. If your hope is a few uses then this item is perfect for you; if like me you hope it may last one year of light use then I would pay another 5 or ten bucs and get a different one.

This is a reliable product and meets all my expectations.

Question: ... the price and thought these couldn't possibly be a good fit. Oh how wrong I was

As a 38DDD having gone through many named brand bras I was shocked at the price and thought these couldn't possibly be a good fit. Oh how wrong I was!! Another girlfriend asked why I always had muffin breasts (a condition where your bras don't fit and you have tuffs of spillage over your bra tops). She asked what brand I used and she too used to wear the same secret brand until someone told her about these. I was the same size as her so I tried on one of hers, and it was instant love! My shoulder pain is not as bad (it will always be bad with larger breasts), but not as bad as before. I will not be buying any other brands besides this one! I've not had a wire pop or pinch me, and no more muffin boob in over a year. You also can't beat the price of these!

Question: Shattering the myth is right

I have just finished reading this book and I just wanted to say that there are two stories in the book that I loved the best and they were "the first night" and "if you were here". Let me tell you that I found this book to be off the hook and true in a lot of instances. In other words I could relate to a few of the stories in this book. Keep the books coming. Love your work!

This is a good album. The songs are well written, the vocals and the melodies are.. well, great fun. It's all very feel good stuff. They aren't breaking new ground, and the music isin't exciting, they're just guys playing a certain brand of rock; and they're doing it damn well. The music really is a hybrid of bands like Zeppelin, Queen, AC/DC and who knows how many 'hair' bands. The vocals seem to swing between sounding like Robert Page and Robert Smith; and when he sounds like Smith, he *really* sounds like Smith. Is it tongue in cheek? Who knows. They deny it is, but at times I feel that it just must be. Either way, like I said, it's fun. It's like eating candy, really..

Question: The Most Interesting Water Drinker in the World!

I'm not a water drinker, but when I do I drink FIJI!  This water just tastes so good and has a better pH than tap water and most other bottled water.  Locally we refer to the tap water as schuylkill punch, and BOY does it pack a punch.  You never know what you are gonna get, it taste bad, has a foul odor, and is acidic.  FIJI water is base probably the best you can get without using a machine, and it just taste good!  Sure you pay a little more but it's worth the cost.

Don't know just haven't used them yet...look good but in China they have a way of doing that...and never trying out how they actually work!

Question: Easy to maintain and keeps my cats happy.

Since we spent almost $1000 on a vet bill for one of our cats, who had the cat form of kidney stones, we decided to try the Petmate bubbler to try to get them to drink more water. After having difficulty cleaning the tubes, having the tubes break, having to buy more tubing, and having to replace the pump, we invested in the Cat It Fresh and Clear drinking fountain. It is so much easier to clean, just a little soap and water, and you really don't need any special tools to clean it(a bottle brush does make it a little easier, but you can clean it without it). Also it doen't get the hard water build up like the bubbler did. Yes, it has a filter, but you can easily rinse it with water and get all the "crud" off and use it again. And when you do need to replace the filters, they aren't that expensive ($7.99 for 3 on Amazon) and they are simple to switch out. I have noticed that the pump collects hair around the intake slots, which comes off easily when cleaning. It is very quiet, the only time I really ever hear it is when it gets low on water.

I'm a big fan of Carl Hiaasen's! I think I have read everything he has written, including his children's books. In Bad Monkey he again takes us into his bizarre Florida world with his trademark kooky characters and funny plots and sub plots.

Question: works fine. I have needed to replace the entire setup ...

The blender motor itself, while loud, works fine. I have needed to replace the entire setup due to the blade base wearing out. I make 3 blended meals a day, and with both units I have owned the bearing in the blade base has worn out and begun leaking a plastic/metallic smelling liquid. This has happened in a little over a year with both units. They may make a replacement blade base but I don't feel like I should need to replace it this soon.

I enjoyed it very much, also taught me more about Afghanistan and it's women than I knew before.  The book is very well written and the very different women in i would probably not even have met under other circumstances.  The only thing I think is negative is that the ending was too quick, could have been given more time.  The total score is five stars beause the book made me laugh and cry and I think the author knows what she writes about

The advice in this book has helped me to renew a daily practice of putting words on paper. As a writer, we are sometimes our own biggest fan. If we don't stay encouraged and motivated by daily practice, we begin to wither.  Your book has provided a strong guideline on how to stay on track.

Question: This stuff is great - I make no bones about that

This stuff is great - I make no bones about that.  It does what it's advertised to do.  However, the reason why I can't give it five stars is that the product does not seem to last long.  I'm not talking about using it too much - it actually seems to evaporate within the container!  It's very strange.  I use very little around my mouth and eye area once a day.  But, every time I open the lid, it just seems to be less and less of it left.  Maybe it's manufactured that way?  I don't know.......but, for what the cost is, I find it to be very disconcerting.  I've been using this with great results, by the way, for over a year and a half, but I can't shake this feeling that I'm being conned in some way.

This is a nice collection of fairy tales. Some are reimaginings of classic stories. Some are right out of the Doctor Who universe. My favorite is the story about the weeping angels.

Question: Glass Water Bottle with Silicon Cover,  22 ounces

In general, I like it very much.  I love purple and also don't like the taste of water in plastic or stainless steel bottles.  I also later bought the 16 ounce size in the same color.  My only complaint is that the lid leaks.  I put it in a tote bag on it's side and it leaked on the bottom of the bag and on other things inside.  Leaking is a serious drawback.  I read a review that said you have to know how to put the lid on.  I'll experiment with that but I'm already putting it on carefully.  I'll see if the regular cap does that; I'm hoping it doesn't.  This one has a flip top.

This is by far my best chair I have ever bought for myself! I'm writing this review while sitting on my brand new chair and it feels good! This chair has armrests on both sides, a long back support enough for your whole back, and a cushion seat. I picked the blue/black color scheme, but you can choice which ever color. The colors are bright and enough to make it look new and flashy! Oh, and the installation was easy and it only took around half an hour to build. One last thing, the new special leather smell goes away in about a day, so you're not left with a stinking chair.

This is my personal review and was not influenced by anyone or anything. Good luck on your purchase!

It teaches kids about the various shells they can find on the beach, how to respect the ocean, never go in the water alone, and how to be safe when the waves come crashing in.

Absolutely loved this gym bag!! It's very practical and has a lot of room to fit all my gym necessities.

I love to travel and have many stories from my travels, but this author has definetly written about some great experiences.  I loved reading all the stories Michael M Roe included.  "Tall Tales for Travelers" contains 18 short stories centered around traveling experiences.  Some are really short, others longer, but they will all hold your attention and make you smile, even laugh out loud.  This is a great writer!!!  Despite them being short, they have interesting characters and great images and descriptions.  You must get this book for your friends whose traveling stories you've heard and for anyone that seem to always be on the go.

Question: Loved it, great story with a good mix of supernaturals

This story is set in present time and is a continuation from Knights Journey, a prequel to this story.  This book is a standalone and you do not need to read the prequel first but it will make the story so much more if you do and it is free on Amazon.  This is a great story about the dark knights who had their start in Medieval Camelot and are now due to be released from their duty/curse.  They each have a quest and of course are meant to meet their mates.  This story flows very well, is non stop action and keeps you engaged the whole time.  There is a lot going on, quite a few characters and a lot of plots intertwining with each other. The author does a good job of filling in the blanks, sometimes it will be later in the story to figure something out.  I am thinking/hoping  some of the characters (human and supernatural) will be back in future stories.  The ending was much more detailed and ongoing than I have read in a long time, makes you feel you really get a lot out of the story.  No one can say this had an abrupt ending.  I felt the only weak issue in the story was with Evangeline, some unknown hows and whys. Maybe those will be answered in later stories.  But overall the story was very good, highly recommend. I received this book for free and voluntarily reviewed.

Having been a fan of Van Morrison for more than four decades, I have heard a lot of great albums from him, a few mediocre ones, and a couple that were awful. In his golden years, he seems to have found a safe formula to make music that sounds unmistakeably Van Morrison to long time fans. He takes few of the kind of creative chances he once did even though he adds a few jazzy touches to this one with a very competent band. Is Born To Sing: No Plan B the snorer that some claim? Not quite, but neither is it a career milestone. While it is somewhat better than some of his more recent albums, it contains nowhere near the artistry of his best ones.
My favorites here are Goin' Down To Monte Carlo, Born to Sing, a remake of Close Enough For Jazz, the bluesy Pagan Heart which evokes the days of Too Long in Exile, and his very timely obligatory rant Educating Archie.
The CD comes with a booklet containing a few critics reviews, the lyrics, and details of who plays what on which track. Most Van Morrison fans should enjoy this one, but you know there will always be a few naysayers who have their own reasons. Check it out and decide for yourself.

Question: The parts were all scratched up due to the manufacturer's ...

The parts were all scratched up due to the manufacturer's packing.  While assembling i noticed some of the welled on nuts were crooked, causing me to drill out the tube.  Also, some of the nuts had welding slag in them making me chase the thread to screw their locking screw in it.  On two of the nuts I had to retap the nut to make it work.

The "Checkmate" box-set never let me down. The series reflects a time in entertainment-history when movies had peaked as the principal mode of entertainment and the most enduring names in theater were transitioning from the big screen to television. Hence, producers were picking off the ground what had once been the highest-hanging fruit.
Add to this the writing talent of an Eric Ambler ("Epitaph for a Spy" (1938), "Cause for Alarm" (1938), "Journey into Fear" (1939), "The Mask of Dimitrios (US title: "A Coffin for Dimitrios") (1940), and the viewer has reason to anticipate excellence.
If there is a question it is in the description provided on the CD box. As advertized, I found in none of the fifty-eight hours of unalloyed enjoyment one "fog-filled" street. The nearest to this was a steam-bath scene; but, the blurb on the box detracts nothing from this delightful series.

I've had it about a month or so.  It fits my bed nget icely and is firm and supportive.  When you receive it, you will need to unroll it and let it air out for 3-4 days.

Question: A credible insight to an unanswered and timeless question

This is not your typical ghost story. This is nothing like the sensationalism you see on the prolific and predictable "ghost Hunter" television programs or movies. This is a very raw interview of two people that were not searching for fame or fortune. The people interviewed in this book do so only on the basis of complete anonymity. Everyone has their own belief system on the paranormal, and some will dismiss it before ever reading it. If you are curious,  for whatever reason, I don't think this book will disappoint. The style is gritty and there is an obvious lack of exaggeration to make the story more sensational.

This is my first cookbook that I have purchased and I couldn't love it more than I do!  Bill and Hayley really have inspired me with this book to start cooking real great food.

Question: Great Quality, Great Looks!

We've owned our fan for about 6 months and all is well. It looks so much better than the traditional Wal-Mart plastic fans and would definately buy another. Be prepared to assemble. It is pretty heavy too.

Ahh these are hours of entertainment! Soo Funny!! I bought three! :D

Question: Worth the money, requires a little DIY

These lights work really well and are super bright. I mounted them facing front on one of my plastic grille bars and they look sweet! They aren't really too noticeable during the day in the sunlight but at night they are spectacular. I drive a 2008 chevy cobalt

I had to use double sided 3M tape (i recommend clear to look professional) because i had no room to drill for the screws to use the provided mounting clips. I also went ahead and wired them into my headlight wires so they come on with the headlights rather than actually trying to feed the tiny wires they give you through my firewall and into the cabin. Simply splice some 16 gauge wire onto the wires on the grille lights then use a quick connect t-splicer to connect the wires to the low beams.

(it's illegal in PA to have your high beams on with other fog lights when driving street). However these are not illegal to have on while driving like some other neons or aftermarket driving lights are, with PA state law that is.

Anything i didn't cover feel free to contact me! I'm no pro but I was able to install them properly in about 15-20 minutes.

6/7/13
A few of the bulbs don't light up sometimes either right away or at all. Sometimes if you just flick it, it'll come on but they're starting to wear out. I use them daily as DRL's though so it's expected!

This is my third pair so obviously, I love them. I don't like arch support so they are perfect in that they have none. When they get dirty, I throw them in the washing machine and they come out looking like new.

Question: A beautiful documentation of the bright side of gentrification

There are lots of books documenting the typical tourist garden spots of NYC, but few that document the street gardens New Yorkers live with every day. Ms Pinover Schiff has lovingly selected representative examples from all five boroughs, including some that might have escaped the notice of many, such as plant pots decorating brownstone steps in Brooklyn and bulb plantings in the low fenced gardens in front of stately 5th Avenue doorman buildings in Manhattan. Community gardens and potted plantings outside of restaurants; venerable old spaces like Paley Park and the very new pedestrian plazas that have popped up along Broadway  they all get equal attention from Ms Schiff.

Reading this book was therapeutic for me. So much of what's happened to the city is heartbreaking to natives. Cookie-cutter Starbucks are replacing our treasured Greek coffee shops on every block -- in fact, national or global chains are pushing our established locally owned businesses out at every level. Rapacious developers are tearing down irreplaceable buildings, if not whole blocks, to replace them with hastily-erected, out-of-context drywall-and-glass monstrosities that quickly fill up with naive out-of-towners paying thousands every month for a cruddy studio, ironically helping to destroy the local character that made the neighborhood desirable in the first place.

But this book is a pleasant counterpoint to the bad news. More money and more investment has an upside; in some ways, the city has been pillaged, but in many ways it's been beautified too. Spaces like Madison Square Park and Bryant Park, once depressing and dusty, are thriving and teeming with locals and tourists. I love seeing this documentation of the bright side of development, and the determination of civic groups, businesses, and especially individual citizens to beautify their own tiny corner of the city, thus benefiting everyone who walks by. Pockets of natural beauty carved out of a concrete jungle are priceless, and kudos to the author for reminding her readers of that by recognizing and celebrating these little treasures.

We love to play in the snow and this is the best sled!  I ordered $168 one from LL Bean and this $50 Lucky Bum one is superior.  All our neighbor kids have the 48" one; it will even fit two adults comfortably.  Plan to slide further and faster- great fun!

Question: Shimano Acera STI Shift and Brake Lever 7 speed set

Shimano ST-EF50 Acera EZ Fire Plus Shift and Brake Lever 7 Speed Set, Silver, Canti Low end Shimano product, good construction, nicely finished.  Installation is easy, but SIS adjustments are somewhat difficult.  Instructions provided are detailed but sometimes confusing.  All in all a suitable replacement at a good price.
This product is not intended for trail abuse, but for around town riding it does the job and does it well.

I was hoping for more personal stories rather than information. The information the author provided was helpful though. The story he told at the beginning grabbed my attention but could not keep it throughout the book. Please write something with personal experiences. You are a wonderful writer too!

Question: Wish they made one for my back windshield!

I like this window shade. It is very well made. My only complaint is that there is a large area around the rear view mirror that isn't covered. Normally that wouldn't be a big deal, but I have a black service dog and I need as much of the window blocked as possible. It is June and in Denver, Colorado we are already having 90 plus heat. I am attending school and there isn't any shade really to park under. I also wish that I could get a similar window shade for my back windshield. Honestly, I just received my Intro-Tech. So I am not really sure how much it will cool my car, but I am impressed with the quality of the product.

Looked better than expected.  Once "Santa" tried it on for the fit, we were very pleased with the finished look.

Question: Solving the issue for the self locking mechanism

These are nice clamps that can work great for piercings. After reading the other reviews I learned that not many people know about the technique for these. If you use a rubber band that is twisted several times to the desired grip you can avoid using the self locking mechanism. By using the rubber band it will not hurt as bad for the person you are piercing.

The plot was intriguing, I really enjoyed this book. I felt really sad for Phoenix.

But my issues with it were: (spoilers)

 17 years in jail for a crime she didn't commit. Her ex broke up with her after claiming to love her and taking her V card because of his parent's discrimination against her (he was a spineless loser btw), he then teatified against her labelling her as a irrational/jealous ex that would do anything to have him back. If that wasn't enough, he wouldn't let her son read her letters from inside nor would he let her see him. Heck he wouldn't even send her frequent updates on her son. 16 years of her son's life was lost to her.  After all of that she is finally free and excited to meet her son, only to have the "hero" try to scare her off by using her insecurities and fears against her. she doesn't give up and is determined to get to know her son and care for her invalid mother. But the people of whiskey creek won't leave her alone even after 17 yeara of jail time. she is an outcast and is threatened/abused by the family of the girl who waa murdered.

Yet, im expected to believe she wasn't bitter or angry at the hero or anyone else in that backward town- that was unrealistic. I wanted her to show real emotions instead all I saw was self-esteem issues, self-blame and self-hate.

Also the scene with penny and the confession I didn't buy - it was another unrealistic aspect.

And the ending was rushed.

Another cracker by Mr Reynolds. I've always enjoyed his style, and he has come through yet again.

I searched high and low for a set of drink coasters that weren't cheesy.  I found them right here.  The condensation wicks into the travertine so you won't have the collateral damage from the pool of condensation that gets all over you and your furniture when trying to take a drink.  Works for me.  I shared a picture of the coaster set with my interior designer friend and she had to have it. Enough said...

This book was so good.  It was so easy to picture the characters in my head.  The 3 main characters share one thing in common, they are fed up with the racial divide.  Set in the 60's in Jackson, Mississippi over a span of 2 years, you come across the assassination of Medgar Evers and President J.F.K.  Although this book is fiction it feels so real.  Probably because things like this actually happened.  One of the lessons I learned from this book it to never judge a book by its cover.  No one ever knows what goes on behind closed doors and that you can find solace in the most unexpected person.  Hilly Holbrook is the most racist and pitiful woman in the book, what she says goes and everyone follows suit.  But, later in the book, you realize that not all of Hilly's friends are like her and many of them are good-natured women.  This book inspired me to follow my heart and never let anyone's skewed point of view change who I am.  I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys reading deep content books.

Question: Delicious crock pot roast beef

I've been really getting into slow cooker sauces lately and this was one of my favorites. This is a hearty brown sauce with mushrooms, and tastes like it has some marsala cooking wine in it, which was a touch too tangy but otherwise I had no complaints. The beef was tender and delicious -- the beef at our local grocery store can often be "iffy," ironic because we live in Kansas, but ranches make more money selling beef to areas with higher populations so we get what doesn't get exported. This so far has been the only crock pot sauce I've tried that has rescued an iffy cut of meat. I paired it with mashed potatoes and green beans. Will definitely be buying this again!

Like the way the dots allow me to write more freely and encourage doodling which I am not opposed to!

Thank you, Katharine Ashe, for Colin Gray.
I preordered The Earl months ago and it's been just hanging out on my Kindle since its release, waiting for me.
Colin Gray is one of my favorite historical romance heroes I've read in a long time. He's strong and protective and just and loving and steadfast and honorable and VULNERABLE, which is such an underappreciated and underused character trait in a romantic lead. He was just so, so lovable.

Question: Super cute, soft and awesome product!

I LOVED this!
Super Cute!!! It's very soft and very very cute. It was perfect for us! I love how it has a bow attached and it's not just a design like most others. And seriously, the material is fantastic! Most dog items are that harder material so they can't ruin it right away but that's so stiff. This is nice and smooth and you can just wash it if it gets messy.

I had purchased a bandana in the past for my pups first birthday (in a rush) at a local pet store. The one I had was Velcro and didn't work very well. It didn't fit perfectly (even tho the size was correct) and each time she moved she could hear the Velcro make a noise. Not to mention that the overhang of Velcro was itchy for her.
This one is a tie on so it doesn't have that issue! You can tie on in a cute bow and done! She left it on all day and it didn't bother her one bit (she hates wearing anything besides her collar)

Now I'm looking for more bananas by this company for her and we just adopted a little brother for her so we're looking for items for him! Thank you for an awesome product!

This is the product I was looking for, but it was too expensive for 1 lid.  I think you can buy a 4 sets of tumblers and lids for around $30.  Why is one lid 7.95?

Question: Really like this series

Really like this series.  Was pleased to find the last three books on Kindle.  Enjoying them so far and have already recommended them to some friends and family.

This elevated food and water bowl set would be just fine for most cats.  My cat is a big boy, 18 pounds.  One more inch high would have made this perfect for him.  Ordering one for a small dog might have been a better fit for him.  I also have traded out the food bowl for one I have that has a more bowl like bottom. My cat tends to eat from the middle out  and he can more easily get at the food with this bowl  It works fine on the stand.  Otherwise the stand is fine and was as advertised.

Question: Sleek, slim, and fully functional.

I ordered this in the white and mint. The mint is back ordered so ihaven't received it yet but the white arrived quickly and has a pearl-like white finish to it and is very beautiful in different lighting. The case has a matte smooth feel to it that can be slightly slippery in hands but as shown in the photos I have a PopSocket attached to mine. Spigen had always been a reliable brand for me that I have purchased cases from in the past for my previous phones. It is very slim, keeping the original shape and feel of the phone which is what I wanted. The cutouts for the volume and lock buttons work perfectly and don't lift the edges of my water-applicated screen protector at all. Overall I love this case and look forward to the mint case arriving in a month. I ordered the white as a backup to the mint, since delivery is going to take so long for the mint, but I love the pearl white finish so much I am going to keep it and will alternate the two colors depending on my mood! I tried capturing the beautiful pearl color effect in the photos so I took one photo with flash and the other without. The case is also easy to snap on and off my phone, don't hesitate if you're looking for a slim and sleek, functional case!

This book is hard to find because it was privately published by the author in 1977.  It contains information that most other books on this subject do not have, and is an informal chronicle of how Mrs. Cooper and her husband devoted their lives to collecting and selling Kentucky rifles.  The photos are not as good as more modern (and expensive) examples, but they are adequate.  This is a classic reference that should be in the library of anyone interested in these fine examples of beautiful and practical American folk art.

Question: Are they true business people?

This is not great but not that bad.

What truly bothers me about all these podcasters is they do not make money from their knowledge. Meaning they make money by selling referrals. Specifically JLD, Pat Flynn, Lewis Howe and others would most likely go broke if they did not have sponsors or affiliations to make money. A huge percentage of what they make is from pushing the other firms, like Blue Host.

Now I am not saying there is anything wrong with this, but would they really get paid for their knowledge of business and truly making money? Or would Pay Flynn, etc. really know how to start a bricks and mortar business?

But they appear to be making money but then again are their numbers a true reflection of what they are making? Sounds to good to be true to me. We have to take what they are stating at face value. Do not like to do that in this day and age.

Maybe it's just a new time where internet marketing is the new bricks and mortar and affiliations are where the money is at.....

Question: My favorite priming tool so far.

I've used a total of seven different priming tools since I started reloading in the 1980s. I've used two different press mounted priming tools, all three of the Lee hand priming tools, the original RCBS tool, and now this. Each has their advantages and disadvantages.

Priming on the press gives you a lot of mechanical advantage- maybe too much. Feeding primers by hand (as I had to do with both press-mounted tools) is slow. The original Lee hand tool is hard on the thumb- I can't do more than 50 at a stretch- and again, loading primers individually is slow, even with a primer flipper tray. Lee priming tools require a special holder, too- you can't use the same case holders you use in your press. Lee gear is cheap, but that adds complexity. One more part to lose ;-)

The improved Lee tool with a built int tray solves the problem of picking up primers by hand, but I had a problem with the primers getting stuck in the feed channel and then popping the lid off the feeder tray- and it still had the same problems as the original tool: The need for special shell holders and a tired thumb.

That led me to the original RCBS tool. Lots of leverage- almost too much. Good feel, primers feed well, and easy to use. Only one real annoyance- the rod that pushes the primers in sits loosely in the tool, and if you tip it over, the rod will slide out and you'll go chasing it around the floor.  I used it for a quite a while before I switched to the new Lee Ergo. The Ergo solved the tired thumb problem. It's really easy to use, and has a great feel. But it still has feeding problems and needs a special shell holder. For some reason, Lee decided to design all their hand priming tools to use a special shell holder that can't be used in loading presses. Very annoying.

And that led to this tool. It's easy to use, doesn't require any shell holders, and there are no loose parts that can fall out. Instead of swapping primer seating rods to switch between large and small primers, you use an included tool to screw one of two different rod tips into a seating rod that's permanently fixed in the tool. It's a bit confusing at first, as the instructions aren't quite clear, but a glance at the exploded diagram makes everything clear. There's even a tiny setscrew that can be inserted to lock the priming rod in the upright position to make swapping tips easier. (I found it was just as easy to simply hold the tool with the lever fully depressed.)

So far I like it a lot. The automatic shell holder requires a small amount of effort to snap a shell into place, but once in place it's automatically centered and won't fall out. If you keep it clean, and put a drop of lube in the appropriate place (the manual explains how and where) it's very reliable. Primer feed has been smooth, and there's a simple gate in this model that allows you to shut off primer flow- useful when removing the feed tray from the tool to avoid spilling primers. If you load more than one caliber, and especially if you load several different calibers, this is one of the best choices in a hand priming tool.

I love these wraps!  I have a 13lb male Dachshund that I rescued, who marks his territory the minute I leave him when I go upstairs without him, go out to the garage without him, etc.  It was so frustrating, he was ruining carpets, couches, chairs, and even the corner of the kitchen island.
The two times I ordered, I purchased the Medium size because he was borderline between the small and medium.  The mediums were big, so I modified them by cutting off a couple of inches and then sewing them back together.  The company contacted me and asked me about their product bc I hadn't done any reviews so I explained what I just wrote above.  Ryan was very helpful and even sent me a small to see if that would be a better fit. It is a better fit as far as fitting around my dog, however, my dog is a sneaky Dachshund.  He figured out that if he stretched out and wiggled a little, the wrap would fall below the intended cover up target!  To remedy this, I just wrap one a little farther up on his body and a second one just below the first one.  Now I don't have any issues of leaks!  LOVE THESE WRAPS

Question: Another Samsung disappointment.

This would be a fairly nice purchase with the exception of the fact that the main component of this package - the wall charger - does not work.  All the cables work - the automotive device works  - but I cannot use the wall plug to hook to my wireless charging mount since the plug does not work.  Very disappointing, but yet another reason that my next phone will not be a Samsung.  Never, ever again.

I only work around my house and usually mix my concrete by hand in amounts to large to make those little hoes you can get at those home stores and did not want to go full tilt and get a Marshaltown.  The price was good on this and I hoped that it was good enough for my once in a while use. Well it is every bit as good as the quality hoe's I have used when I worked with masonry contractors.  I cannot say how well it will hold up over the long haul but there is no sign that it will fall apart quickly. The handle is sturdy enough to hold up to pulling on a good sized pile concrete and you do not waste your energy flexing the handle and not moving the mixture. If I have one complaint it is more of a personal one in that getting the label off is pretty impossible. It is not in a location where you run your hands over it but I have a thing with labels. For a home owner do not hesitate to buy it, For a contractor well I think it would work but daily heavy use usually means you should go with the top brands as they are proven.  Oh one more point is that it got to my house really quickly even though it is not a prime item I do not believe.

Question: I recieved the Replacement Front Screen Glass Lens Cover + ...

I recieved the  Replacement Front Screen Glass Lens Cover + Tool Kit (black) but it's broken, I will ask for another one.

The kids love it. However, this is not playground quality (and it doesn't claim to be.) But the kids don't know it's not playground quality nor do they care. It has only a 115 lbs weight limit, so two seven year olds goofing off (i.e., trying to ride it together or climbing on it in a way not intended) makes me a bit nervous. It could use use stronger, better chain.
Also, the chain is protectively wrapped in plastic, which is good; the downside being I'm sure this plastic coating is loaded with PVC if you care about such things. We do.

All-in-all it's great for backyard fun, but if you're the least bit handy you can easily make a better, sturdier, less toxic one yourself.

Great read.  Lee provides insightful advice and practical tools which will elevate your happiness and quality of life,  This short book with lots of depth will give you much needed takeaways for making your life happier and more fulfilling.  I highly recommend it!

I bought this product because of the mostly positive reviews and after seeing the set in person I was happy with it. The keyboard feels comfortable to  type and it does not make that much noise when typing. Keyboard so far its good and what I expected to see from it only complaint is that the enter key is shaped oddly. As for the mouse it also looks nice with the changing colors and the design of it is decently comfortable to use also I wish there was a way to check the dpi. However, this product earned 3 stars because I have only had this set for a day and the wheel on the mouse already is getting stiff! I know you get what you pay for, since this nice looking set was only 15 dollars but I expected it to last in a good working condition for longer than it has. I hope I can get it replaced, now to see how good their customer service is.

Question: Things aren't always as they appear

A very well written story that flowed well, with believable characters. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this story. It was interesting to meet Lucy Resnick and the other characters that live in Buttercup, TX. Transplanted city-girl and former investigative reporter, Lucy Resnick, has a nose for ferreting out the truth and helping to solve "mysteries" in her newly adopted little town of Buttercup. Armed with her wits, good friends, and comical animals; Lucy looks into the murder of a woman; when the local Sheriff is intent on laying the blame on one of her friends.
I didn't feel that I lost anything by not reading the first book in this series. Although, I would love to read that one too!

I was tempted to buy it after flipping through the first a few pages in a Borders bookstore. But when I was at the 50th page after my first afternoon Latte, I lost the desire to read on. So there it is. Unfortunately, the book that could have been sitting on my book shelf is still in Borders.

Tash Aw experiments a new narration style in this book, which is fascinating. The theme itself is rich and eyecatching. But the characters lack flesh. Watching them unfolding the story is like watching a puppet show. This is the reason I found it hard to read on. This could have been a better book indeed if only the characters were better built, and the backgrounds further explored into. Still for a debut, this is not a bad work at all. I wish Tash Aw would continue to write with confidence and courage.
