Another Great book clubs ArticleYou Can Save Big Money With Entertainment Books
There aren't too many people who don't enjoy going out and doing things. Whether it's a dinner out, a movie, a play or something similar, it is fun. Even though it is great to do all these things, not many people can afford to do them regularly and even those that can afford it don't like the idea of spending money on that. However, it doesn't always cost a lot to go out, especially if you are smart about it. One way to go out and save money at the same time is entertainment books.
You get many coupons for restaurants, activities and retailers when buying an entertainment book. What is really great about these coupons is that they are actually for places you would spend your money on anyway. For example, there are always fast food restaurant coupons. As most of the people get some food every once in a while from these restaurants, then having a few coupons would be quite useful.
You can use the coupons for yourself or share them with someone. You would also be provided with coupons for more expensive restaurants and family restaurants if purchasing entertainment books. Maybe you would never go to such fancy dining places but if you have some coupons you might decide to give it a try on a special occasion.
You can use coupons in many other places, too. There are many activities to choose from. If you golf you might actually save some money next time you play golf if you keep your coupons from entertainment books. Or you'd rather go to the opera or the theatre? To be completely honest, I had never been to the opera, the symphony and many other great places before I discovered entertainment books. Having these coupons enabled me to try new things without considering the cost. It is really great what some coupons might do for you, they will open the doors of many unseen or unvisited places for you.
If you buy entertainment books which are quite cheap your family and you would get coupons which could be used in your local area or while travelling. Apart from the low cost of entertainment books, they are also often sold as some sort of fundraiser so you can make a small charity to support a venture. With coupons you can keep on participating in all the activities you always do but you can save some money which will give you the opportunity to try a few new things you haven't done or haven't experienced. Never again will you need to say "If only I could afford this or that".

This series offers do-it-yourselfers of all levels TOTAL maintenance, service, and repair information in an easy to use format. Each manual contains: trouble codes, electronic engine controls, maintenance schedules, diagnostic charts, wiring diagrams, tune up specifications, and much more.
Customer Review: Basically what I needed
This is the only manual that covers the 1.8l Sidekick Sport, so I got what I needed. As usual, good for the DIY'er but won't necessarily cover everything. I wouldn't be without one.
Customer Review: Is it good? No, it's snot
This is a frustrating book. While I understand that cramming everything that needs to be known about a car between two covers is a nearly impossible task, it seemd like nothing I wanted to do was adequately explained.
The switch for my AC/heater gave out...the explanation for how to remove it was complicated and confusing. I'm not sure if I can do it without completely disassembling the heater control panel or not. My speedo cable squeaks...I can't even find any mention of the speedo cable in the book. There's an explanation of how to pull the instrument cluster...but for some reason, it doesn't mention where any of the cables or wires that connect to it are located.
I browsed some other sections, and they seemed just as confusingly written as the areas I was interested in.
I would only get this manual as a supplement to another one. It's got the information that someone with a good deal of experience needs to work on their car, but it isn't good enough for an amateur, even a fairly experienced one like me.

Well, my son is not much into toys - eventhough he's only 9, he prefers books and videogames(which I do not allow him to have). He almost never asks for a toy so I got this for him and we all ended up enjoying it. It is amazing - especially if you have an LCD screen to watch it on. Hair, skin, saliva, salt, pepper, sugar, we just go crazy with the things we want to inspect. It was worth the money!! It is fun and educational by arousing scientific curiosity in our son.

The Red Balloon
The Red Balloon
One of the most famous short films ever made, The Red Balloon is a childhood fantasy with appeal for viewers of every age. It is the story of Pascal, a lonely French boy who befriends a wondrous red balloon which follows him everywhere--to school and church--and even hovers outside his window when he is in his room. Filmed entirely in the picturesque back streets and narrow alleys of Old Montmartre, the film has been acclaimed through the world as an immortal masterpiece of lyrical poetry. The Red Balloon is both a beguiling fantasy and a touching allegory on the magic powers of love and friendship.
Customer Review: sweet movie!
limited french dialogue, cute boy and a red balloon...how could you not be amused. this is a great short film for anyone of any age. it will just make you feel good.
Customer Review: this Balloon is fine
I read about the poor quality of the DVD and was dejected that i would have to wait to renew my precious childhood memory. I then gambled on the probability that an older tape would be OK - and it certainly was; the colour and clarity are great! 50 year-old memories are vivid once more!

credit repair book For Your Reading PleasureCar Lots Should Be Using Scrapbooks In Their Businesses
I?ve always wondered why I have never seen a scrapbook in the lobby of a car lot. Since I lease my vehicles, at least once every 5 years I find myself sitting in someone?s office as I wait for a manager somewhere to decide what price to charge me. During those 5 or 10 minutes I?m sitting there, I psyche myself up to be very defensive, knowing I won?t like the price, knowing I?ll have to negotiate, knowing I may walk out. I also know from conversations with many other people that they too spend those 5 or 10 minutes feeling the exact same way and becoming more defensive as the seconds tick by.
What a much more pleasant experience it would be if I had a scrapbook to look through. There are so many items that a car dealership could put into their scrapbook. They could start with cars through the years. I know when the car shows are in my town, thousands of people come out to see these vintage automobiles. Not only do car designs and models change, but colors have changed over the years too.
In addition, there are sometimes special edition vehicles that come out once and then they are gone. There are also models that don?t make it and are quickly removed from the line up. Photos of all of these cars would be wonderful to see.
What about photos of customers? I always see the company white boards of how many vehicles each sales person has sold, but so what? This means nothing to me. Seeing a photo of my next door neighbor making a purchase would mean a lot more. Or seeing a photo of the local newscaster would mean much more than the board with the sales person?s name on it.
What about photos of other employees who work there? I was surprised to learn that a man I?ve known for several years as an acquaintance worked at one of the car dealerships I had walked out of on my last vehicle purchase. Perhaps he and I knowing each other could?ve saved the deal. Maybe not, but we?ll never know.
What about photos of the car dealership out in the community helping out? I know that one local dealership is very involved in serving food at the local soup kitchen. I only know this because I?ve been told. How wonderful to see the salesperson who is attempting to make a sale with me, in a photo serving food at the local soup kitchen. Wow, would that give me a different perspective.
A scrapbook of all of the above would be so much nicer for the customer versus spending 10 minutes getting more and more defensive and being ready to attack when the salesperson comes back.

E-SATA - USB 2.0 and Firewire 400 Interface
Customer Review: Easy-to-Use. Fast. Reliable. Great Value.
The Western Digital "My Book" Terra Byte external hard drive is a great value, east-to-use, and solid performer. I am using it on a home network though an HP Desktop (Pavilion 450n) as a group backup device with VISTA.
The easiest thing was setting it up. Plug in the firewire (faster than the USB 2.0) and the power cable, turn it on and you're in business. VISTA recognized it immediately as an external hard drive and it was easy to access.
I am using it for regular (weekly) backups of three computers on the network as a central backup device.
I have found it to be fast and quiet. I am thrilled with it and highly recommend central backup - safe from any single device failing or becoming corrupted. All those wedding pictures, personal photos, financial records, etc. etc.
Customer Review: Works, but prevents PCs from booting
Mine works, but if it is connected to my PCs while they are booting (tried it on two), they hang in the BIOS screen.
To use the drive, I've got to connect it to the PC after it is booted. I do *not* recommend this drive.

Legend - The Best Of Bob Marley And The Wailers (New Packaging)
Legend - The Best Of Bob Marley And The Wailers (New Packaging)
Even as greatest hits packages go, this is an utter gem. Every song is inspired, in a class of its own, whether the real version of "I Shot the Sheriff," the hymnlike "No Woman, No Cry," or the sheer joy of "Jamming." Even allowing that Marley never wrote any bad material, then Legend is still the crème de la crème, the heart and soul of the Jamaican people packed into one five-inch compact disc. He was unique, and the message of this record, more than any other, is that he died far too soon. --Chris Nickson
Customer Review: Should Not be Marley's Bestselling
First of all, I do not own this CD, but I own almost every Bob Marley and the Wailers album, and have heard every song on this compilation. I'm also not a fan of compilation albums, because they do not give a good representation of the quality of the artist, it's just like listening to the radio. The songs chosen are all great songs, but where is Kaya, Concrete Jungle, or any song off Survival, which is his best album. If you are a new fan, I suggest to start off with one of his real albums, either Kaya, Natty Dread, Survival, or Exodus. Ultimately, looking at the track listing makes me disappointed that these are the only songs most people are hearing. If you start out with this, it makes less sense to purchase an album of which you already have a couple songs, this is a dead end album. I think if I had bought this album, I would have never bought all the other ones, which I never get tired of listening to.
Customer Review: Legend-Best of Bob Marley
Very disappointed! We had lost our old tape and thought this CD would be a great replacement. However, the sound/tempo of this CD is "off." It would have been helpful to know that this CD was NOT the ORIGINAL, but some type of reproduction. LET ME KNOW THESE DETAILS IN FUTURE, OR I SHALL FEEL THE NEED TO GO ELSEWHERE.
Thank you.

Customer Review: Another Seuss Winner from Learning Company!
This is my third CD-Rom purchase from The Learning Company, and I can't give them high enough ratings. The first time my 4 year-old son played the Green Eggs & Ham CD (after having devoured their Cat In The Hat game -- see my review of that CD-Rom for more details), I thought it was a let-down. Shows what I know. My son wanted to keep playing it, and after one or two times, he discovered in this game the same level of depth, creativity and imagination as we found in the Cat In The Hat CD. In fact, this CD even allows you to select more difficult levels of play for the matching game (at which my son, at the highest level, is much more adept at than I am -- apparently I need to stick to the first level!).
Like the Cat In The Hat story, this one allows your child to decide whether they want the story read to them or they want to interact. For those who want to interact, it provides different levels of varying, interesting interaction; I didn't realize it until my son showed me, but many of the story items do something different every time they're clicked! And it's not like the items just move a little bit when clicked; the animate objects either do an elaborate dance or deliver a clever little Seussian rhyme about their situation, and the inanimate objects...I can't even describe the type of fun they demonstrate. You'll have to take my word for it. It really seems like Dr. Seuss created this software himself! I can't recommend it highly enough for children from their first introduction to computers to about 5 or 6 years old (when everything becomes dumb).
Customer Review: Entertaining Education!
I purchased this software for my 4 year old son because I was getting tired of renewing it over and over again at the library! He would sit at the computer playing with this software for hours, if I would let him! A juice box and a bowl of goldfish and he'd be all set. :-)
As big fans of all of the Learning Company titles, we knew we would love this one, too. Besides the wonderful rhymes from the beloved Dr. Seuss, there is sheer enjoyment to be had clicking all over the screen. The results are hilarious!
To show you the software's appeal, my 10 year old daughter always seems to find an excuse to be near the computer when my son is playing this game, and the next thing you know, they're sitting in the chair together, having a wonderful time.
An excellent piece of software, and I highly recommend it!
Pride and Prejudice - The Special Edition (A&E, 1996)
Pride and Prejudice - The Special Edition (A&E, 1996)
Jane Austen's classic novel of 1813, Pride and Prejudice, still wins the hearts of countless schoolgirls with its romantic story of Elizabeth Bennet and her Mr. Darcy. Now, the 1996 BBC miniseries is winning over adults, with its faithful adaptation, gorgeous scenery, and superb acting.
The essence of the story is the antagonism between Mr. Darcy, a wealthy single man who believes Elizabeth to be beneath him, and Elizabeth, who upon being insulted at a dance by the aloof Darcy refuses to associate with him in any manner. Austen evokes incredible tension with the wit and flirtation of the two characters, and director Simon Langton (who also directed Upstairs Downstairs) successfully translates the repartee and conflict in this six-hour miniseries. Dialogue, for the most part, is painstakingly replicated, except when fleshing out and smoothing for modern sensibilities was necessary. Darcy, for instance, is drawn out, giving his personality significantly more depth. The acting sweeps you away to Regency England: Jennifer Ehle (of Wilde) is convincing as the obstinate Elizabeth, who, despite her mother's attempts to marry her off, spurs the attentions of Darcy. And Colin Firth (of The English Patient) will have women everywhere longing for a Mr. Darcy of their own.
For those who have been on an Austen binge--enjoying such excellent adaptations as Sense and Sensibility and Persuasion--this miniseries will round out the ultimate Austen video library. For those new to these romantic period pieces, this version of Pride and Prejudice will have you hooked and longing for more. One caveat, however: plan to watch it in an entire day, because very few have the self-control to not watch all six hours in a single sitting. --Jenny Brown
Customer Review: Get the VHS tapes
I love this show. But, the DVD color ruined it. Even with the brightness all the way up, the people had black blobs on their heads instead of hair and the shadows were all pitch black and the bright colors were bluish.
Oh and I bought the special edition, in 2008, and it said it had been remastered for the best quality in picture and sound. Well, they still have some work to do!
I returned the DVD and got the tapes from Amazon marketplace. So beautiful and well worth it!! Get the tapes. There are 6 tapes and even with the hassles of the tapes I was as enchanted as I was when I first saw this on PBS and waited for a rerun!!
Customer Review: Best production of Pride & Prejudice Available
Compared to other available reproductions of Jane Austen's Pride & Prejudice, the dialog is very accurate - which makes this a long film, but a must have for any Jane Austen lover, or for any admirer of Mr. Darcy, whom Colin Firth portrays excellently.

Honoring the amazing fighting prowess of ancient Greek warriors has lead to the creation of this awesome shield. Although the shield cannot withstand swords and axes, it has been constructed with the greatest detail.

Great shield, can't get much better than this. Pretty much right out of the movie, lots of compliments. Very high quality, would probably work as a real shield in an attack. Perfect finish for that 300 costume

credit repair book For Your Reading PleasureCar Lots Should Be Using Scrapbooks In Their Businesses
I?ve always wondered why I have never seen a scrapbook in the lobby of a car lot. Since I lease my vehicles, at least once every 5 years I find myself sitting in someone?s office as I wait for a manager somewhere to decide what price to charge me. During those 5 or 10 minutes I?m sitting there, I psyche myself up to be very defensive, knowing I won?t like the price, knowing I?ll have to negotiate, knowing I may walk out. I also know from conversations with many other people that they too spend those 5 or 10 minutes feeling the exact same way and becoming more defensive as the seconds tick by.
What a much more pleasant experience it would be if I had a scrapbook to look through. There are so many items that a car dealership could put into their scrapbook. They could start with cars through the years. I know when the car shows are in my town, thousands of people come out to see these vintage automobiles. Not only do car designs and models change, but colors have changed over the years too.
In addition, there are sometimes special edition vehicles that come out once and then they are gone. There are also models that don?t make it and are quickly removed from the line up. Photos of all of these cars would be wonderful to see.
What about photos of customers? I always see the company white boards of how many vehicles each sales person has sold, but so what? This means nothing to me. Seeing a photo of my next door neighbor making a purchase would mean a lot more. Or seeing a photo of the local newscaster would mean much more than the board with the sales person?s name on it.
What about photos of other employees who work there? I was surprised to learn that a man I?ve known for several years as an acquaintance worked at one of the car dealerships I had walked out of on my last vehicle purchase. Perhaps he and I knowing each other could?ve saved the deal. Maybe not, but we?ll never know.
What about photos of the car dealership out in the community helping out? I know that one local dealership is very involved in serving food at the local soup kitchen. I only know this because I?ve been told. How wonderful to see the salesperson who is attempting to make a sale with me, in a photo serving food at the local soup kitchen. Wow, would that give me a different perspective.
A scrapbook of all of the above would be so much nicer for the customer versus spending 10 minutes getting more and more defensive and being ready to attack when the salesperson comes back.

Customer Review: Easy-to-Use. Fast. Reliable. Great Value.
The Western Digital "My Book" Terra Byte external hard drive is a great value, east-to-use, and solid performer. I am using it on a home network though an HP Desktop (Pavilion 450n) as a group backup device with VISTA.
The easiest thing was setting it up. Plug in the firewire (faster than the USB 2.0) and the power cable, turn it on and you're in business. VISTA recognized it immediately as an external hard drive and it was easy to access.
I am using it for regular (weekly) backups of three computers on the network as a central backup device.
I have found it to be fast and quiet. I am thrilled with it and highly recommend central backup - safe from any single device failing or becoming corrupted. All those wedding pictures, personal photos, financial records, etc. etc.
Customer Review: Works, but prevents PCs from booting
Mine works, but if it is connected to my PCs while they are booting (tried it on two), they hang in the BIOS screen.
To use the drive, I've got to connect it to the PC after it is booted. I do *not* recommend this drive.

Legend - The Best Of Bob Marley And The Wailers (New Packaging)
Legend - The Best Of Bob Marley And The Wailers (New Packaging)
Even as greatest hits packages go, this is an utter gem. Every song is inspired, in a class of its own, whether the real version of "I Shot the Sheriff," the hymnlike "No Woman, No Cry," or the sheer joy of "Jamming." Even allowing that Marley never wrote any bad material, then Legend is still the crème de la crème, the heart and soul of the Jamaican people packed into one five-inch compact disc. He was unique, and the message of this record, more than any other, is that he died far too soon. --Chris Nickson
Customer Review: Should Not be Marley's Bestselling
First of all, I do not own this CD, but I own almost every Bob Marley and the Wailers album, and have heard every song on this compilation. I'm also not a fan of compilation albums, because they do not give a good representation of the quality of the artist, it's just like listening to the radio. The songs chosen are all great songs, but where is Kaya, Concrete Jungle, or any song off Survival, which is his best album. If you are a new fan, I suggest to start off with one of his real albums, either Kaya, Natty Dread, Survival, or Exodus. Ultimately, looking at the track listing makes me disappointed that these are the only songs most people are hearing. If you start out with this, it makes less sense to purchase an album of which you already have a couple songs, this is a dead end album. I think if I had bought this album, I would have never bought all the other ones, which I never get tired of listening to.
Customer Review: Legend-Best of Bob Marley
Very disappointed! We had lost our old tape and thought this CD would be a great replacement. However, the sound/tempo of this CD is "off." It would have been helpful to know that this CD was NOT the ORIGINAL, but some type of reproduction. LET ME KNOW THESE DETAILS IN FUTURE, OR I SHALL FEEL THE NEED TO GO ELSEWHERE.
Thank you.

Customer Review: Another Seuss Winner from Learning Company!
This is my third CD-Rom purchase from The Learning Company, and I can't give them high enough ratings. The first time my 4 year-old son played the Green Eggs & Ham CD (after having devoured their Cat In The Hat game -- see my review of that CD-Rom for more details), I thought it was a let-down. Shows what I know. My son wanted to keep playing it, and after one or two times, he discovered in this game the same level of depth, creativity and imagination as we found in the Cat In The Hat CD. In fact, this CD even allows you to select more difficult levels of play for the matching game (at which my son, at the highest level, is much more adept at than I am -- apparently I need to stick to the first level!).

The Power of Private Label Books
Ever since the earliest days of the internet, there have been those seeking ways to make money on the power of the web. The power of the internet has allowed many businesspeople to enjoy great financial freedom and to escape from the boss and the rat race. There are of course many ways to make money on the internet, but in the end it all boils down to providing paying customers with products, services or information of real value. Those web based entrepreneurs who are able to provide customers with the items they want, when they want them, and at a fair price, will find themselves in a unique position to profit from the power of technology.
Of course that is easier said than done, but the good news is that there is a unique and very valuable product line that practically sells itself. This little known product line is that of private label books. These unique products can be derived from copyright free public domain works, and this derivative use is fully legal and 100% above board. Copyrights expire all the time, and this means that new public domain works are constantly being created, providing more and more opportunity for smart web entrepreneurs.
Of course there are a great many things to consider when using such public domain information to create derivative private label books, including making sure there are truly no copyright or trademark issues, making sure the information is timely, relevant and accurate, and formatting the information into a useful and user friendly package.
Many new web based entrepreneurs have found that doing all this preparation on their own is prohibitively expensive and time consuming. It can cost thousands of dollars to find, prepare and publish a single derivative public domain work into a sellable private label book package. Fortunately, there are some excellent companies that specialize in providing their members and subscribers with a steady supply of those ready to sell private label books. Having a reliable supply of top quality private label books can open up multiple streams of revenue, and it can provide the owner of the web site with a reliable source of excellent income month after month and year after year.

Customer Review: Spanish Immersion series- The path(or road to fluency (??)
I have enjoyed the other Spanish Immersion series very much. I have learned and grown in my language skills. However, this one, I think it is The road or path to Fluency, is only a listen to type of CD's. They are great to listen to but I was very disappointed that it is all about listening. As we all know in language learning, listening is only PART of it, one must repeat, repeat and repeat. Answering questions over the little conversations would have been so much better. This was done in the others. I am improving in listening skills, but the path to fluency has to be conversation repeated over and again. Thanks for listening, pam elmore
Crayola Color Wonder Disney Princess Enchanted Tales Coloring Book & Markers
Crayola Color Wonder Disney Princess Enchanted Tales Coloring Book & Markers
Color Wonder is a unique ink developed by Crayola scientists. The ink is clear on most surfaces, but appears colored on the special Color Wonder Paper. And best of all, colors only appear inside the coloring book lines (pre-printed images), so kids get a great picture every time. Set contains 6 Color Wonder Markers and one 24-page Color Wonder Coloring Book with magical Disney princess themes.
Customer Review: Unexpected surprise!!!
This product is absolutely amazing. First, all children love to use markers but markers can get messy, especially for the little ones. These markers will only work on Color Wonder products, so there will be no marker stains on your tablecloth, clothing, or children!
This high quality coloring book had an added surprise. After you color the gold trimmed princesses in this book, you can color the background and additional princesses and designs will be revealed! Gasps of awe arose from my 6 year old upon seeing that and she very much enjoyed this coloring book. The package stated for ages 3 and over.
As a side note, be sure to save your color wonder markers when you are finished. We do save our color wonder markers and finger paints, and use them on plain color wonder pads that can be purchased at toy stores.
Customer Review: Coloring without Spots
I really enjoyed finding this product. We orginally got a book with the paints. My daughter loved it so much, she asked for this one.
For a three year old, this product is a godsend. Just think, no more illustrations on the wall.
I highly recommend Crayola WonderColor markers and paint.

Open Season
Open Season
Open Season is a riotous romp in the great outdoors, where rowdy forest animals turns the tables on unsuspecting hunters. When a domesticated grizzly named Boog leaves the creature comforts of home with a mule deer named Elliot, he finds himself lost in the woods just three days before hunting season. Forced to "rough it" in the great outdoors, Boog goes native, rallying all the forest animals to take back their home and send the hunters packing.

What I love most about this game is that it doesn't have violence even though it's got a hunting theme. The animals are lovable characters, and it's good to get a game that both small boys and girls can enjoy -- and of course everyone older too!
There should be more family oriented X-Box 360 games like this one.

Copyrights expire all the time, and this means that new public domain works are constantly being created, providing more and more opportunity for smart web entrepreneurs.
Of course there are a great many things to consider when using such public domain information to create derivative private label books, including making sure there are truly no copyright or trademark issues, making sure the information is timely, relevant and accurate, and formatting the information into a useful and user friendly package.
Many new web based entrepreneurs have found that doing all this preparation on their own is prohibitively expensive and time consuming. It can cost thousands of dollars to find, prepare and publish a single derivative public domain work into a sellable private label book package. Fortunately, there are some excellent companies that specialize in providing their members and subscribers with a steady supply of those ready to sell private label books. Having a reliable supply of top quality private label books can open up multiple streams of revenue, and it can provide the owner of the web site with a reliable source of excellent income month after month and year after year.

Customer Review: Spanish Immersion series- The path(or road to fluency (??)
I have enjoyed the other Spanish Immersion series very much. I have learned and grown in my language skills. However, this one, I think it is The road or path to Fluency, is only a listen to type of CD's. They are great to listen to but I was very disappointed that it is all about listening. As we all know in language learning, listening is only PART of it, one must repeat, repeat and repeat. Answering questions over the little conversations would have been so much better. This was done in the others. I am improving in listening skills, but the path to fluency has to be conversation repeated over and again. Thanks for listening, pam elmore
Crayola Color Wonder Disney Princess Enchanted Tales Coloring Book & Markers
Crayola Color Wonder Disney Princess Enchanted Tales Coloring Book & Markers
Color Wonder is a unique ink developed by Crayola scientists. The ink is clear on most surfaces, but appears colored on the special Color Wonder Paper. And best of all, colors only appear inside the coloring book lines (pre-printed images), so kids get a great picture every time. Set contains 6 Color Wonder Markers and one 24-page Color Wonder Coloring Book with magical Disney princess themes.
Customer Review: Unexpected surprise!!!
This product is absolutely amazing. First, all children love to use markers but markers can get messy, especially for the little ones. These markers will only work on Color Wonder products, so there will be no marker stains on your tablecloth, clothing, or children!
This high quality coloring book had an added surprise. After you color the gold trimmed princesses in this book, you can color the background and additional princesses and designs will be revealed! Gasps of awe arose from my 6 year old upon seeing that and she very much enjoyed this coloring book. The package stated for ages 3 and over.
As a side note, be sure to save your color wonder markers when you are finished. We do save our color wonder markers and finger paints, and use them on plain color wonder pads that can be purchased at toy stores.
Customer Review: Coloring without Spots
I really enjoyed finding this product. We orginally got a book with the paints. My daughter loved it so much, she asked for this one.
For a three year old, this product is a godsend. Just think, no more illustrations on the wall.
I highly recommend Crayola WonderColor markers and paint.

Open Season
Open Season
Open Season is a riotous romp in the great outdoors, where rowdy forest animals turns the tables on unsuspecting hunters. When a domesticated grizzly named Boog leaves the creature comforts of home with a mule deer named Elliot, he finds himself lost in the woods just three days before hunting season. Forced to "rough it" in the great outdoors, Boog goes native, rallying all the forest animals to take back their home and send the hunters packing.
Customer Review: so-so, wish it was longer.
Super cute.
Even though I am an adult, I love kids games.
BUT the game is so short. It took just a few short hours to complete.
Customer Review: All Game -- No Violence
What I love most about this game is that it doesn't have violence even though it's got a hunting theme. The animals are lovable characters, and it's good to get a game that both small boys and girls can enjoy -- and of course everyone older too!
There should be more family oriented X-Box 360 games like this one.

Customer Review: Great fun for everyone!
What a great, fun album! Our 23 month old has been listening to it for about 6 months now, and loves to speak along to it. Different songs are favorites at different times. My husband and I think it is catchy and fun for us, too. If your toddler is going to demand songs be repeated "one more time" as our does, these are songs you can listen to, too, "one more time" ad infinitum (almost). You even learn to sing the alphabet backward!
Customer Review: Great!

One Chance
One Chance
Britain's Got Talent winner Paul Potts has spent most of his life feeling 'insignificant'. Bullied at school for being 'different', he realized growing up that he had one true friend and that was his voice. Singing was his escape. He was able to lose himself in his own little world - the vicious words of his tormentors replaced by hauntingly beautiful lyrics and melodies that lifted his heart and spirit. It was a love, a passion, a lifeline that would follow Paul into adulthood and help him through many more periods of adversity.
Though it's fair to say that when Paul strolled awkwardly - almost apologetically - onto the Cardiff stage for his first Britain's Got Talent audition a week before that final, in his now infamous £35 Tesco suit, and announced to Simon and fellow judges Amanda Holden and Piers Morgan that he was going to sing opera, they never thought for one minute they were looking at their winner. Until he opened his mouth and started to sing.

Customer Review: Paul Potts is beyond a winner
The musical beauty of this CD by Paul Potts will send positive chills down your spine and out through your limbs. His voice is magnetic and moves the soul no matter what language he is singing. A must have for your tenor music collection and a moving story of success behind the music. He is the new "Pavarotti" with even more sentiment in his presentation.
Western Digital 500 GB My Book Studio Edition External Hard Drive
Western Digital 500 GB My Book Studio Edition External Hard Drive
Speed is what you need when for video editing, big design projects, or managing photo shoots and thats what this drive delivers with FireWire 800 and eSATA connectivity. With our automatic backup capability your creative masterpieces will be backed up the minute you save them.
Customer Review: Backup drive for use with Time Machine
I bought the My Book Studio Edition 500 GB drive specifically for use as a backup drive in conjunction upgrading my IMAC operating system. I installed Leopard and needed a dedicated drive for Time Machine. I've been using it for about a month and there have not been any malfunctions. In fact there have been no surprises. It takes up little room, is quiet enough (though not silent) and was no problem to install. I am completely satisfied.
Customer Review: Works Magic for the Mac
I am speaking about the My Studio 500GB for the Mac. In looking for a good external storage device for regular daily back-up I was guided to all sorts of products. But the My Studio was recommended the most and even was a highly recommended drive from the experts at Apple. The installation was easy (just connect and the software is loaded onto the computer automatically). Keep the software icon in the dock and you are all set. I travel a lot and I use the MacBook Pro (I still use Tiger OS X) and when I get home I simply attach the Firewire 800 (included in the box along with Firewire 400 and a USB cord) and the External Drive updates my backup within seconds. Yes, the initial back-up of the files took about 45 minutes, but then I had a lot of huge files and photos and music on my internal drive. But now, I leave the My Studio plugged into the power outlet and all I need to do is attach the firewire and the external drive turns on and backs up any changes within a minute. I can purge deleted files if I want, but I prefer to keep old files and the 500GB has the room. When I leave, I just quit the software and eject the My Book and it turns off all by itself (don't touch the on/off button; it is all automatic). I highly recommend this to Mac users. Don't get the WD 500GB for the PC even though it says it is good for Mac. You have to reformat the entire Drive and it does not work well with Mac. It costs a little more for the My Studio 500GB for Mac, but the ease of use is well worth it. Thanks Apple for the recommendation!
Dr. Seuss's ABC
Dr. Seuss's ABC
Together, the three stories in this video offer a fine introduction to the basics of reading, in an appealing and humorous format kids will enjoy. Dr. Seuss ABC's teaches the alphabet through whimsical Seuss characters and crazy, kid-friendly words. Each word of the alphabet is introduced with its capital and lowercase letters. Then different words that use the letter are spelled. Kids will enjoy the zany illustrations, and will be challenged to learn phonetics, with phrases like "duck-dog," "quacking quackeroo," "four fluffy feathers on a fiffer-feffer-fef," and "yawning yellow yak." In the second segment, the Cat in the Hat points out all the wonderful things kids can learn if they only read with their eyes open. Finally, "Mr. Brown Can Moo, Can You?" teaches phonetics through the story of a man who can make sounds like animals and everyday appliances. --Elisabeth Keating
Customer Review: Dr. Seuss's ABC
This is one of my kids favorite dvd's. They love learning there abc's with this dvd.
Customer Review: A massive dissapointment
Somehow, I thought I remembered most of the Dr. Seuss stories being interesting animations from the 1960s, when I was a child. However, I now realize that only a few proper animations were created (like The Grinch Who Stole Christmas). This DVD is an overpriced, underproduced waste of time. It is merely the illustrations from the books brought to life - poorly. The movements are jerky and silly, the voiceovers are embarassing, and it captures my 3 year old twins imagination about as much as a blank screen. They LOVE the equivalent books, and we read them constantly. They are NOT interested in these amateurish renderings (which at times look like cut and paste silliness like Terry Gilliam of Monty Python fame). If a three year old can tell the difference, then you will too. Even though the animation is limited, in the "Ken Burns" style or worse, the DVD compression is lousy with tons of visible artifacts all over the images. Do yourself and your kids a favor and buy the real books. Random House and Sony Wonder - whose logos introduce these productions - should be ashamed to market such inferior nonsense.
Winnie the Pooh: Cowboy Pooh
Winnie the Pooh: Cowboy Pooh
Join Pooh and his pals from the Hundred Acre Wood for play-along fun that's full of laughter and imagination! New discoveries await within each delightful adventure! Take a trip to the Old West in "The Good, The Bad, And The Tigger," when a mysterious train robbery causes Sheriff Piglet to round up some unusual suspects! Then, "Rabbit Marks The Spot" and tricks the Pooh Pirates into digging for buried treasure! And who could possibly be "The Masked Offender" -- and why does he bounce so much like Tigger?
Customer Review: My 4 year old & 2 year old boys love Cowboy Pooh
My sons love this movie and ask for it to be played over and over. They both love trains and are delighted for a story that integrates Pooh & friends and trains. I only wish it would come out on dvd (we're on our second videotape since the first one wore out with so many viewings).
Customer Review: Son's favorite
This was one of my son's favorites when he was little, now my friend's son loves it. Great stories, especially for boys(there are trains and pirate ships). My only complaint is that they aren't available on dvd.

Western Digital 500GB My Book Essential 2.0 - USB 2.0 External Hard Drive WDH1U5000N
This elegant external hard drive, reminiscent of a book, is the perfect storage solution. It takes no more space than a paperback book. Collect two or more and they nest neatly together like volumes on a shelf. Installation is a snap because you don't really install this drive, you just plug it in and it's ready to use. A USB 2.0 simple connection offers convenience and compatibility among multiple computers. Dimensions - Height 6.5 x Length 5.4 x Width 2.1 Weight - 2.5 Pounds
Customer Review: Auto shut off is annoying
Seems reliable, quiet, and fast enough... but i really don't like the auto shut off feature. If you don't use it for 10 minutues it shuts down. When you try to access a file from it again, it goes back on. I could be working on a file, step away for a minute, then come back to it and save... and then it has to spin up again just to save. This takes a few seconds every time this happens, which slows me down.
Also... I am unsure of the longevity of an electronic item which is constantly going on and off. In any electronic device, a surge is sent through the device when powering up. We all know that this process of starting up is what wears electronics out, and decreases their life.
So.... if there is someone out there that knows how to turn this feature off... please let me know. I would love it if without auto shut off.
Customer Review: Great price for the amount of storage.
This is the second Western Digital HD that I purchased and I am very happy with the ease and speed of transfers.

The first Haynes manual was written this way 40 years ago, and all the manuals continue to be produced this way, making Haynes the world leader in automotive repair information.

This manual is very useful to the Z car owner who may have more than one car or a combination of early chassis and later engine, ignition, etc. The fact that there are three separate models included makes the manual somewhat harder to use, but overall it's well written and includes many illustrations and photos from the factory service manual. Occasional British terms are used which may be vague to some readers--a short list of translations into American language is included. Overall, this is a very handy tool for the Z car owner's collection.

The Advantages of using a travel agency on holiday June 26, 2008 | Leave a Comment There are quite a few advantages to using a travel agent whilst on holiday - but many of them aren’t recognized. A lot of people seem to think travel agencies are a rip-off, and that people can do it all themselves. You’re right, you probably can. But I know someone who tried to go to Peru - got a quote from a travel agency and didn’t like it. He then organized the trip himself. His flight was delayed by 2 day

Customer Review: Backup drive for use with Time Machine
I bought the My Book Studio Edition 500 GB drive specifically for use as a backup drive in conjunction upgrading my IMAC operating system. I installed Leopard and needed a dedicated drive for Time Machine. I've been using it for about a month and there have not been any malfunctions. In fact there have been no surprises. It takes up little room, is quiet enough (though not silent) and was no problem to install. I am completely satisfied.
Customer Review: Works Magic for the Mac
I am speaking about the My Studio 500GB for the Mac. In looking for a good external storage device for regular daily back-up I was guided to all sorts of products. But the My Studio was recommended the most and even was a highly recommended drive from the experts at Apple. The installation was easy (just connect and the software is loaded onto the computer automatically). Keep the software icon in the dock and you are all set. I travel a lot and I use the MacBook Pro (I still use Tiger OS X) and when I get home I simply attach the Firewire 800 (included in the box along with Firewire 400 and a USB cord) and the External Drive updates my backup within seconds. Yes, the initial back-up of the files took about 45 minutes, but then I had a lot of huge files and photos and music on my internal drive. But now, I leave the My Studio plugged into the power outlet and all I need to do is attach the firewire and the external drive turns on and backs up any changes within a minute. I can purge deleted files if I want, but I prefer to keep old files and the 500GB has the room. When I leave, I just quit the software and eject the My Book and it turns off all by itself (don't touch the on/off button; it is all automatic). I highly recommend this to Mac users. Don't get the WD 500GB for the PC even though it says it is good for Mac. You have to reformat the entire Drive and it does not work well with Mac. It costs a little more for the My Studio 500GB for Mac, but the ease of use is well worth it. Thanks Apple for the recommendation!
Dr. Seuss's ABC
Dr. Seuss's ABC
Together, the three stories in this video offer a fine introduction to the basics of reading, in an appealing and humorous format kids will enjoy. Dr. Seuss ABC's teaches the alphabet through whimsical Seuss characters and crazy, kid-friendly words. Each word of the alphabet is introduced with its capital and lowercase letters. Then different words that use the letter are spelled. Kids will enjoy the zany illustrations, and will be challenged to learn phonetics, with phrases like "duck-dog," "quacking quackeroo," "four fluffy feathers on a fiffer-feffer-fef," and "yawning yellow yak." In the second segment, the Cat in the Hat points out all the wonderful things kids can learn if they only read with their eyes open. Finally, "Mr. Brown Can Moo, Can You?" teaches phonetics through the story of a man who can make sounds like animals and everyday appliances. --Elisabeth Keating
Customer Review: Dr. Seuss's ABC
This is one of my kids favorite dvd's. They love learning there abc's with this dvd.
Customer Review: A massive dissapointment
Somehow, I thought I remembered most of the Dr. Seuss stories being interesting animations from the 1960s, when I was a child. However, I now realize that only a few proper animations were created (like The Grinch Who Stole Christmas). This DVD is an overpriced, underproduced waste of time. It is merely the illustrations from the books brought to life - poorly. The movements are jerky and silly, the voiceovers are embarassing, and it captures my 3 year old twins imagination about as much as a blank screen. They LOVE the equivalent books, and we read them constantly. They are NOT interested in these amateurish renderings (which at times look like cut and paste silliness like Terry Gilliam of Monty Python fame). If a three year old can tell the difference, then you will too. Even though the animation is limited, in the "Ken Burns" style or worse, the DVD compression is lousy with tons of visible artifacts all over the images. Do yourself and your kids a favor and buy the real books. Random House and Sony Wonder - whose logos introduce these productions - should be ashamed to market such inferior nonsense.

Customer Review: My 4 year old & 2 year old boys love Cowboy Pooh
My sons love this movie and ask for it to be played over and over. They both love trains and are delighted for a story that integrates Pooh & friends and trains. I only wish it would come out on dvd (we're on our second videotape since the first one wore out with so many viewings).
Customer Review: Son's favorite
This was one of my son's favorites when he was little, now my friend's son loves it. Great stories, especially for boys(there are trains and pirate ships). My only complaint is that they aren't available on dvd.

Customer Review: Auto shut off is annoying
Seems reliable, quiet, and fast enough... but i really don't like the auto shut off feature. If you don't use it for 10 minutues it shuts down. When you try to access a file from it again, it goes back on. I could be working on a file, step away for a minute, then come back to it and save... and then it has to spin up again just to save. This takes a few seconds every time this happens, which slows me down.
Also... I am unsure of the longevity of an electronic item which is constantly going on and off. In any electronic device, a surge is sent through the device when powering up. We all know that this process of starting up is what wears electronics out, and decreases their life.
So.... if there is someone out there that knows how to turn this feature off... please let me know. I would love it if without auto shut off.
Customer Review: Great price for the amount of storage.
This is the second Western Digital HD that I purchased and I am very happy with the ease and speed of transfers.

This manual is very useful to the Z car owner who may have more than one car or a combination of early chassis and later engine, ignition, etc. The fact that there are three separate models included makes the manual somewhat harder to use, but overall it's well written and includes many illustrations and photos from the factory service manual. Occasional British terms are used which may be vague to some readers--a short list of translations into American language is included. Overall, this is a very handy tool for the Z car owner's collection.

The Advantages of using a travel agency on holidayWed, 25 Jun 2008 13:01:07 -0700
The Advantages of using a travel agency on holiday June 26, 2008 | Leave a Comment There are quite a few advantages to using a travel agent whilst on holiday - but many of them aren’t recognized. A lot of people seem to think travel agencies are a rip-off, and that people can do it all themselves. You’re right, you probably can. But I know someone who tried to go to Peru - got a quote from a travel agency and didn’t like it. He then organized the trip himself. His flight was delayed by 2 day

Of all the articles that I have written, I consider this article of black book value to be my best article. Hope you feel the same too.
A black book value Artilce for Your ViewingWhy Sell E-Books?
It's not true that everything that has been said has already been written. Since that unfortunate axiom came into use, the whole universe has changed. Technology has changed, ideas have changed, and the mindsets of entire nations have changed.
The fact is that this is the perfect time to write an E-Book. What the publishing industry needs are people who can tap into the world as it is today - innovative thinkers who can make the leap into the new millennium and figure out how to solve old problems in a new way. E-Books are a new and powerful tool for original thinkers with fresh ideas to disseminate information to the millions of people who are struggling to figure out how to do a plethora of different things.
Let's say you already have a brilliant idea, and the knowledge to back it up that will enable you to write an exceptional E-Book. You may be sitting at your computer staring at a blank screen wondering, "Why? Why should I go through all the trouble of writing my E-Book when it's so impossible to get anything published these days?"
Well, let me assure you that publishing an E-Book is entirely different than publishing a book in print. Let's look at the specifics of how the print and cyber publishing industry differ, and the many reasons why you should take the plunge and get your fingers tapping across those keyboards!
Submitting a print book to conventional publishing houses or to agents is similar to wearing a hair shirt 24/7. No matter how good your book actually is, or how many critique services and mentor writers have told you that "you've got what it takes," your submitted manuscript keeps coming back to you as if it is a boomerang instead of a valuable mine of information.
Perhaps, in desperation, you've checked out self-publishing and found out just how expensive a venture it can be. Most "vanity presses" require minimal print runs of at least 500 copies, and even that amount will cost you thousands of dollars. Some presses' minimal run starts at 1,000 to 2,000 copies. And that's just for the printing and binding. Add in distribution, shipping, and promotional costs and - well, you do the math. Even if you wanted to go this route, you may not have that kind of money to risk.
Let's say you already have an Internet business with a quality website and a quality product. An E-Book is one of the most powerful ways to promote your business while educating people with the knowledge you already possess as a business owner of a specific product or service.
For example, let's say that you've spent the last twenty-five years growing and training bonsai trees, and now you're ready to share your knowledge and experience. An E-Book is the perfect way to reach the largest audience of bonsai enthusiasts.
E-Books will not only promote your business - they will help you make a name for yourself and your company, and establish you as an expert in your field. You may even find that you have enough to say to warrant a series of E-Books. Specific businesses are complicated and often require the different aspects to be divided in order for the reader to get the full story.
Perhaps your goals are more finely tuned in terms of the E-Book scene. You may want to build a whole business around writing and publishing E-Books. Essentially, you want to start an e-business. You are thinking of setting up a website to promote and market your E-Books. Maybe you're even thinking of producing an E-zine.
One of the most prevalent reasons people read E-Books is to find information about how to turn their Internet businesses into a profit-making machine. And these people are looking to the writers of E-Books to provide them with new ideas and strategies because writers of E-Books are usually people who understand the new cyberspace world we now live in. E-Book writers are experts in Internet marketing campaigns and the strategies of promoting and distributing E-Books. The cyberspace community needs its E-Books to be successful so that more and more E-Books will be written.
You may want to create affiliate programs that will also market your E-Book. Affiliates can be people or businesses worldwide that will all be working to sell your E-Books. Think about this. Do you see a formula for success here?
Figure out what your subject matter is, and then narrow it down. Your goal is to aim for specificity. Research what's out there already, and try to find a void that your E-Book might fill.
What about an E-Book about a wedding cake business? Or an E-Book about caring for elderly pets? How about the fine points of collecting ancient pottery?
You don't have to have three masters degrees to write about your subject. People need advice that is easy to read and easily understood. Parents need advice for dealing with their teenagers. College students need to learn good study skills - quickly. The possibilities are endless.
After you've written your E-book...
Getting your E-Book out is going to be your focus once you've finished writing it, just as it is with print books. People will hesitate to buy any book from an author they've never heard of. Wouldn't you?
The answer is simple: give it away! You will see profits in the form of promoting your own business and getting your name out. You will find affiliates who will ask you to place their links within your E-Book, and these affiliates will in turn go out and make your name known. Almost every single famous E-Book author has started out this way.
This doesn't mean you should stop here. Eventually, you will move into where most of the wealth mountains are - selling them, and then maybe their Resell Rights and Private Label licenses!
Another powerful tool to attract people to your E-Book is to make it interactive. Invent something for them to do within the book rather than just producing pages that contain static text. Let your readers fill out questionnaires, forms, even crossword puzzles geared to testing their knowledge on a particular subject. Have your readers hit a link that will allow them to recommend your book to their friends and associates. Or include an actual order form so at the end of their reading journey, they can eagerly buy your product.
When people interact with books, they become a part of the world of that book. The fact is just as true for books in print as it is for E-Books.
That's why E-Books are so essential. Not only do they provide a forum for people to learn and make sense of their own thoughts, but they can also serve to promote your business at the same time.

The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment
The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment
Eckhart Tolle is emerging as one of today's most inspiring teachers. In The Power of Now, already a word-of-mouth bestseller in Canada, the author describes his transition from despair to self-realization soon after his 29th birthday. Tolle took another ten years to understand this transformation, during which time he evolved a philosophy that has parallels in Buddhism, relaxation techniques, and meditation theory but is also eminently practical. In The Power of Now he shows readers how to recognize themselves as the creators of their own pain, and how to have a pain-free existence by living fully in the present. Accessing the deepest self, the true self, can be learned, he says, by freeing ourselves from the conflicting, unreasonable demands of the mind and living present, fully, and intensely, in the Now.
Customer Review: Powerful Clarity and Pragmatic Wisdom
The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle is a spiritual classic, bestseller and translated into over 30 languages. It was awarded a member of Oprah's Book Club. Eckhart's newer book, A New Earth, is presently the newest addition to the Oprah Book Club. Oprah and Eckhart are currently offering a ten week online class that is accessible for free registration at Oprah's website. The first class was enjoyed by 700,000 people worldwide, from 139 countries and represented by all fifty states in the U.S.
Eckhart was born in Germany and graduated from the University of London. He became a research scholar and supervisor at Cambridge University. At 29 years old, he experienced a profound spiritual transformation that dissolved his identity as he had previously known it. This began an intense inward journey that radically changed the course of his life. He now teaches worldwide and lives in Vancouver, BC.
He is not aligned with any particular religion and yet his message does not exclude any doctrine or dogma. He is communicating that there is a simple and pragmatic way out of suffering into enduring peace.
Power of Now is a guide to breaking free of the ego, the mind-made self, with all of its problems and conflicts. Eckhart finely dissects the ego's characteristics so that we become more conscious of how it operates. Who we are is beyond thought, emotion and form. Yet our body is the portal through which we enter a new reality to realize harmony, peace and joy. He encourages us to become more aware of the silence and space all around us and then points to inner space and stillness. Through becoming more conscious, we find that we can be free of psychological pain and open to our authentic power.
Power of Now is divided into 10 chapters with 191 pages. The Preface is written by Marc Allen, New World Library and the Foreword is by Russell Dicarlo, author of Towards a New World View.
In the Introduction, Eckhart shares the origin of the book and that the truth of who we really are lies within us. Chapter One is a study of the mind; the greatest obstacle to enlightenment. Through still attention, we can discover that we are not what we are thinking. He defines enlightenment as rising above thought and that emotion is the body's reaction to our thinking.
Chapter Two begins leading us out of psychological pain by pointing to consciousness. He offers keys to unlock accumulated pain of the past and introduces us to the collective pain body that is suffering and constantly trying to feed on more pain. Since the mind-made self believes that its identity lies within its individuality, it is on constant search to complete itself through people, things and circumstances. He shares that ego's entire search for happiness is really a search for wholeness.
In Chapter Three, we move deeply into the Now, the dimension that is free of time and demonstrates that nothing truly exists outside this present moment. He offers the key to the spiritual dimension and how to access the Power of Now. All suffering has its root in psychological time. Eckhart masterfully guides us in a clear and pragmatic manner into the joy of being.
Chapter Four offers the mind strategies for avoiding the now and that it is delusion to think that we can ever be apart from it. He discusses the manner in which we dissolve unhappiness and ordinary unconsciousness to discover the inner purpose of our life's journey. In Chapter Five, he leads us to the state of presence and to realize pure consciousness; our divine Reality.
Chapter Six is a journey into the inner body, where we find an invisible and indestructible reality that is beyond our thinking. He shares how we can also physiological benefit by being present; such as slowing the aging process and strenthening the immume system.
In Chapter Seven, Eckhart offers portals through which we may discover the inner unmanifest that is deep within our bodies such as dreamless sleep, silence, and space.
Eckhart Tolle shifts to Enlightened Relationships in Chapter Eight and we begin to arise about relationships that cycle between relative love and hate. Our relationships and indeed our intimate partners are excellent teachers and a perfect spiritual practice to learn how to live in a deeper state of presence. He encourages you to give up the relationship with yourself, the false sense of self that is the ego.
In Chapter Nine, we discover that beyond the duality and cycling between happiness and unhappiness, there is peace. We notice the impermanence of the cycling, end the emotional drama, discover true compassion and move toward a new order of Reality.
The final Chapter Ten presents the meaning of surrender so that we are able to live in acceptance of this moment just as it is. We shift from mind energy to spiritual energy, while we transform suffering into peace.
Over twenty years ago, I awakened spontaneously and had no idea what had occurred. Many years later, I was fortunate to become friends with Eckhart before the publishing of The Power of Now. In fact, Eckhart encouraged the writing of my new book, Awake Joy. I would just like to underline the fact that you have the opportunity for a radical transformation in your life and that this awakening is the answer to enduring peace. It is the end of suffering for you, your family and the world.
Customer Review: However, for a five star inspirational and remarkably candid recounting
I recommend That's How the Light Gets In: Memoir of a Psychiatrist by Susan Rako, M.D. The title comes from a song by Leonard Cohen: "There is a crack, a crack in everything. That's how the light gets in." Rako faced the "now" in her life with courage and integrity. Her book is wonderfully well-written and a great read. The writing just flows.
The Appeal
The Appeal
The jury was ready.
After forty-two hours of deliberations that followed seventy-one days of trial that included 530 hours of testimony from four dozen witnesses, and after a lifetime of sitting silently as the lawyers haggled and the judge lectured and the spectators watched like hawks for telltale signs, the jury was ready. Locked away in the jury room, secluded and secure, ten of them proudly signed their names to the verdict while the other two pouted in their corners, detached and miserable in their dissension. There were hugs and smiles and no small measure of self-congratulation because they had survived this little war and could now march proudly back into the arena with a decision they had rescued through sheer determination and the dogged pursuit of compromise. Their ordeal was over; their civic duty complete. They had served above and beyond. They were ready.
The foreman knocked on the door and rustled Uncle Joe from his slumbers. Uncle Joe, the ancient bailiff, had guarded them while he also arranged their meals, heard their complaints, and quietly slipped their messages to the judge. In his younger years, back when his hearing was better, Uncle Joe was rumored to also eavesdrop on his juries through a ?imsy pine door he and he alone had selected and installed. But his listening days were over, and, as he had con?ded to no one but his wife, after the ordeal of this particular trial he might just hang up his old pistol once and for all. The strain of controlling justice was wearing him down.
--From Chapter One of The Appeal
Politics has always been a dirty game.
Now justice is, too.
In a crowded courtroom in Mississippi, a jury returns a shocking verdict against a chemical company accused of dumping toxic waste into a small town’s water supply, causing the worst “cancer cluster” in history. The company appeals to the Mississippi Supreme Court, whose nine justices will one day either approve the verdict or reverse it.
Who are the nine? How will they vote? Can one be replaced before the case is ultimately decided?
The chemical company is owned by a Wall Street predator named Carl Trudeau, and Mr. Trudeau is convinced the Court is not friendly enough. With judicial elections looming, he decides to try to purchase himself a seat on the Court. The cost is a few million dollars, a drop in the bucket for a billionaire like Mr. Trudeau. Through an intricate web of conspiracy and deceit, his political operatives recruit a young, unsuspecting candidate. They finance him, manipulate him, market him, and mold him into a potential Supreme Court justice. Their Supreme Court justice.
The Appeal is a powerful, timely, and shocking story of political and legal intrigue, a story that will leave readers unable to think about our electoral process or judicial system in quite the same way ever again.
Customer Review: Quick Read
The book was delivered quickly. As I read, I began to view the political climate of America quite differently. This book was written with the same confiction as John Grisham's early books, A Time to Kill and The Firm. I worried that Grisham had lost his touch, but this book shows that He's back
Customer Review: The best of John Grisham yet
After a long time I'm compelled to recommend a book to all lawyers- present or past, all judges- present , past or wannabes, with or without a conscience and every person who has the remotest interest in law and politics. It was a thrilling fictional version of all that we already know and indeed the best work of John Grisham so far.
As a former lawyer, I strongly disagree with all those who would venture to argue that those judges who are appointed are not much better than the elected ones. They sadly missed the whole point. The question here is not what is better- election or appointment. But it is a revelation that the fabric of moral corruption is the same, whether it is the United States or any other place on this earth.
High Sierra Tank Messenger Bag
High Sierra Tank Messenger Bag
On wheels or on foot, there's nothing like the ready-for-action Tank to keep your cargo safe and sound. This over-the-shoulder pack keeps you comfortable with an adjustable shoulder strap featuring a large Vapel mesh shoulder pad. When you hit the road hard, the adjustable front flap with hook/loop closure and zippered slash pocket are more than prepared for a bumpy ride. Lifetime warranty.
Customer Review: A Little Larger Than I Expected, but still a great buy!
I absolutely love the color of this bag! The plaid also adds detail to an otherwise plain bag, something I was looking for, among all of the plain bags on the market today. It was a little larger than I expected, or wanted, but its size can be attributed to it being very wide and thin. I can fit several text books side-by-side and my laptop inside, yet I don't feel like I'm carrying a bulky backpack around with me. I really like the two mesh pouches on the sides; it's very convenient for carrying multiple drink bottles. The quality is excellent. I've only had it for a few months, but it has not started to show signs of wear yet.
This is an excellent bag for someone looking to carry around a large amount of stuff with them. If all you plan on carrying with you is a notebook and a few pens, look for something else that's smaller. If you were like me, and looking for something to carry several books and a computer in, then this bag will suit your purpose to the letter.
Customer Review: This is the bag for kids to take everything they need to school!
This messenger bag was exactly what I wanted. Both the size and color are perfect. My kids have had problems fitting notebooks into the size of most backpack made these days and they would die before pulling a backpack with a handle. A three ring binder fits easily in the messenger bag and the second opening fits my daughters lunch box. Both compartments have room to spare. The smaller pockets and the zipper pocket on the flap give tons of storage. The shoulder strap is padded for comfort and adjusts. This is a great bag! The quality is there. This isn't going to fall apart any time soon. Your kids can actually fit the things that they need to take to school in it. This was a REALLY good find!
Call Me Irresponsible
Call Me Irresponsible
Melding the contemporary and the classic in ways only he can, Michael Buble has created his most complete studio effort yet. Ranging from "I've Got The World On a String" to "Me and Mrs. Jones," in addition to two new songs co-written by Michael, Call Me Irresponsible makes this album irresistible.
Customer Review: Average CD
I really enjoy Michael Buble's music alot, but this is by far his worst CD to date. I like maybe 3 songs and the rest is not really worth listening to. I am very disappointed!!!!!
Customer Review: 21st Century crooner
Buble chooses the very classic love songs familiar to the baby boomer generation. He does a terrific job with them, the interpretation and color he imparts makes you believe he understands the intent of the song writer of so long ago. Recommended to Sinatra groupies.

Hannah Montana 2: Meet Miley Cyrus
This 2-disc set features 10 all new Hannah Montana songs from the #1-rated Disney Channel series, as well as a 2nd CD including 10 brand-new original songs by Miley Cyrus!
Customer Review: Can't wait until "Miley Cyrus 2" is released
Just started listening to Hannah Montana 2: Meet Miley Cyrus yesterday and if you're thinking about buying this CD, don't wait any longer - it's awesome!
I really loved the first Hannah Montana debut CD and after listening to the new "Hannah 2" songs I actually think the new songs are even better, but I was mainly impressed with the "Miley Cyrus" co-written songs. Still can't believe that someone so young can have so much talent ... as an actress, singer, performer and songwriter.
Customer Review: Daughter's favorite CD
This seems to have two CD's with the normal Hannah Montana sound, as well as a new sound (Miley Cyrus). My daughter loves these CD's and I think I know every song on them. If you like Hannah Montana, you'll love this.
Apple MacBook Pro MA895LL/A 15.4" Laptop (2.2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 2 GB RAM, 120 GB Hard Drive, DVD/CD SuperDrive)
Apple MacBook Pro MA895LL/A 15.4" Laptop (2.2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 2 GB RAM, 120 GB Hard Drive, DVD/CD SuperDrive)
Stylishly and intelligently designed for mobile professionals, Apple's MacBook Pro gets a serious speed bump with the new, powerful Intel chipset (dubbed Santa Rosa), which provides a faster Core 2 Duo processor, longer battery life, and native support for 802.11n wireless connectivity. This model (MA895LL/A) also includes a new mercury-free, power-efficient LED-backlit display measuring 15.4 inches and a state-of-the art NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT video card for more realistic graphics for animation and gaming. This MacBook Pro is powered by the new 2.2 GHz Core 2 Duo T7500 processor and 2 GB of 667 MHz DDR2 memory--the fastest portable computer memory currently on the market (June 2007). But some things haven't changed: the trademark stunning aluminum enclosure that's is just one-inch thin, built-in iSight video camera, and Apple's magnetically connected MagSafe power adapter, which safely disconnects when under strain.

This MacBook Pro measures just 1 inch thin and weighs 5.4 pounds. |
Other hardware features include a 120 GB hard drive, 8x SuperDrive for burning multiple disc formats, built-in 10/100/1000 BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet for high-speed networking, Bluetooth 2.0+EDR (Enhanced Data Rate), a FireWire 800 and a FireWire 400 port, an ExpressCard/34 expansion card slot for expansion solutions such as 3G wireless networking, and a DVI video output.
Intel Core 2 Duo Processor
The Intel Core 2 Duo T7500 processor has a 2.2 GHz processor speed, super-fast 800 MHz front-side bus (FSB), and an enormous 4 MB of Smart Cache, an L2 cache that can be shared between the cores as needed. (An L2, or secondary, cache temporarily stores data; and a larger L2 cache can help speed up your system's performance.

Display and GraphicsThe 15.4-inch widescreen TFT (non-glossy) display offers a native resolution of 1440 x 900 pixels and an antiglare widescreen display that's perfect for color-minded professionals. The new MacBook Pro display is backlit by light emitting diodes (LEDs), which gives it a lighter weight and more power efficiency than the cold cathode fluorescent lamps (CCFLs) which most notebooks employ. It's also better for the environment, thanks to its new mercury-free display.
Video and graphics are powered by the NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT card, which is boosted by 128 MB of GDDR3 SDRAM. GDDR3 (Graphics Double Data Rate, version 3) is a graphics card-specific memory technology that's better able to deliver fluid frame rates for even the most advanced games and applications. The GeForce 8600M GT brings a new level of realism to the MacBook Pro with its 16-lane PCI Express architecture, 16x full screen anti-aliasing, 128-bit High Dynamic Range rendering, and a texture fill rate of up to 8.2 billion per second.

Using the iChat AV application, video conferencing is integrated into your iChat buddy list, so initiating a video conference is a breeze. iChat also lets you hold audio chats with up to 10 people and provides high-quality audio compression and full-duplex sound so conversation can flow naturally. For video podcasting, you can record a short clip using the iSight camera, then use iWeb to create a video blog entry or post your GarageBand-recorded podcast.
Apple Innovations

The magnetically connected MagSafe power adapter breaks cleanly away, without damage to either the cord or the MacBook Pro, if you trip over the cord.. |
The MacBook Pro is the culmination of years of refining hardware and software design to an integrated art. One of Apple's most celebrated innovations is the MagSafe power adapter connector with offers a magnetic connection instead of a physical one. So, if you happen to trip over a power cord, you won't send MacBook Pro flying off a table or desk--the cord simply disconnects, without damage to either the cord or the system. As an added nicety, this means less wear on the connectors.

Using two-fingered scrolling, you can easily scroll around your documents or open contextual menus with one hand. |
The trackpad can tell if you've got one finger on the pedal, or two. With two, you can easily scroll around your documents or open contextual menus. When you need right-click functionality, simply open ÒKeyboard and MouseÓ in System Preferences and enable the secondary click preference.
The MacBook Pro has battery life that rivals most notebooks in its class. If you'd like to make that battery last even longer, Mac OS X has a few tricks up its sleeve. Go to System Preferences, click Energy Saver, and change battery optimization from Normal to Better Battery Life. Or tell MacBook Pro to reduce its screen brightness and give yourself a little more time untethered.
And with the included Apple Remote and Front Row software, you can show off your latest photos and access your iTunes music and playlists from across the room. You can also use it to watch downloaded movies and TV episodes as well as control playback of DVD movies. The Apple Remote features a minimalist six buttons--just press the Menu button to activate Front Row and begin to navigate through your media.

Customer Review: MacBook Pro
The MacBook Pro is great, looks great and works well. The only thing is the new operating system wasn't loaded to the laptop but the disk was included. Other than that, everything is great. Love it.
Customer Review: MacBook Pro
I bought this computer one month ago and the price has dropped $305! I bought an Apple for its reputation as a reliable system. This one crashes regularly, especially when I attempt to use the help function. Also, it does not pick up wireless signals unless they are very, very strong. My six-year old Toshiba works better than this machine. Definitely not worth the premium paid.

Cranium Hullabaloo
Cranium Hullabaloo
This game is sort of like Twister meets Simon Says. Lay the Hullabaloo pads around on the floor about two 'kid's feet' away from each other. The pads are different shapes and colors and have pictures and words on them. Turn on the game console and the cheerful music begins, a happy voice welcomes you to the game and then gives the simple directions you'll need to play. "Jump on a square shape," "Slide over to a red shape," "Hop to a shape with an animal on it" and so on. Then it might tell you to freeze, or to put a body part on one pad, and then a different body part on another. Then, it'll tell you that if you are on a particular pad at the end of that round, you are the winner. We found it to be fun, and easy to understand--though we did wonder how long it might hold a child's interest. --Megan Sullivan
Customer Review: kids LOVE this
This is one of those toys that gets the kids up an moving. Fun music, fun 'rewards' = "do a silly dance". they LOVE it. I am always looking for ways to 'reach' my boy who has autism. This just helps initiate play.
Customer Review: Children probably need to be at least five years old
I was so excited to get this toy after reading all of the awards that it had won. We have a 4, soon to be 5, little girl and a just turned 2 girl as well. I thought that at least the 4 year old could really enjoy it with her sister just "acting" like she was playing along. These girls are both very bright, but I believe that it will take another 6 months for them to be able to really play this together. I may have to sit down with them and just reveiw all of the different shapes and colors and drawings that are on the pads that the game is centered around. I had their Dad sit down with them because I was busy cooking breakfast......I think that someone with a little more patience has to be prepared to sit down with the young ones and maybe review the items with them.......other than that, I can't wait until I get the chance to do it with them.....it seems like a lot of fun for them and my kind of toy....educational.

A black book value Artilce for Your ViewingWhy Sell E-Books?
It's not true that everything that has been said has already been written. Since that unfortunate axiom came into use, the whole universe has changed. Technology has changed, ideas have changed, and the mindsets of entire nations have changed.
The fact is that this is the perfect time to write an E-Book. What the publishing industry needs are people who can tap into the world as it is today - innovative thinkers who can make the leap into the new millennium and figure out how to solve old problems in a new way. E-Books are a new and powerful tool for original thinkers with fresh ideas to disseminate information to the millions of people who are struggling to figure out how to do a plethora of different things.
Let's say you already have a brilliant idea, and the knowledge to back it up that will enable you to write an exceptional E-Book. You may be sitting at your computer staring at a blank screen wondering, "Why? Why should I go through all the trouble of writing my E-Book when it's so impossible to get anything published these days?"
Well, let me assure you that publishing an E-Book is entirely different than publishing a book in print. Let's look at the specifics of how the print and cyber publishing industry differ, and the many reasons why you should take the plunge and get your fingers tapping across those keyboards!
Submitting a print book to conventional publishing houses or to agents is similar to wearing a hair shirt 24/7. No matter how good your book actually is, or how many critique services and mentor writers have told you that "you've got what it takes," your submitted manuscript keeps coming back to you as if it is a boomerang instead of a valuable mine of information.
Perhaps, in desperation, you've checked out self-publishing and found out just how expensive a venture it can be. Most "vanity presses" require minimal print runs of at least 500 copies, and even that amount will cost you thousands of dollars. Some presses' minimal run starts at 1,000 to 2,000 copies. And that's just for the printing and binding. Add in distribution, shipping, and promotional costs and - well, you do the math. Even if you wanted to go this route, you may not have that kind of money to risk.
Let's say you already have an Internet business with a quality website and a quality product. An E-Book is one of the most powerful ways to promote your business while educating people with the knowledge you already possess as a business owner of a specific product or service.
For example, let's say that you've spent the last twenty-five years growing and training bonsai trees, and now you're ready to share your knowledge and experience. An E-Book is the perfect way to reach the largest audience of bonsai enthusiasts.
E-Books will not only promote your business - they will help you make a name for yourself and your company, and establish you as an expert in your field. You may even find that you have enough to say to warrant a series of E-Books. Specific businesses are complicated and often require the different aspects to be divided in order for the reader to get the full story.
Perhaps your goals are more finely tuned in terms of the E-Book scene. You may want to build a whole business around writing and publishing E-Books. Essentially, you want to start an e-business. You are thinking of setting up a website to promote and market your E-Books. Maybe you're even thinking of producing an E-zine.
One of the most prevalent reasons people read E-Books is to find information about how to turn their Internet businesses into a profit-making machine. And these people are looking to the writers of E-Books to provide them with new ideas and strategies because writers of E-Books are usually people who understand the new cyberspace world we now live in. E-Book writers are experts in Internet marketing campaigns and the strategies of promoting and distributing E-Books. The cyberspace community needs its E-Books to be successful so that more and more E-Books will be written.
You may want to create affiliate programs that will also market your E-Book. Affiliates can be people or businesses worldwide that will all be working to sell your E-Books. Think about this. Do you see a formula for success here?
Figure out what your subject matter is, and then narrow it down. Your goal is to aim for specificity. Research what's out there already, and try to find a void that your E-Book might fill.
What about an E-Book about a wedding cake business? Or an E-Book about caring for elderly pets? How about the fine points of collecting ancient pottery?
You don't have to have three masters degrees to write about your subject. People need advice that is easy to read and easily understood. Parents need advice for dealing with their teenagers. College students need to learn good study skills - quickly. The possibilities are endless.
After you've written your E-book...
Getting your E-Book out is going to be your focus once you've finished writing it, just as it is with print books. People will hesitate to buy any book from an author they've never heard of. Wouldn't you?
The answer is simple: give it away! You will see profits in the form of promoting your own business and getting your name out. You will find affiliates who will ask you to place their links within your E-Book, and these affiliates will in turn go out and make your name known. Almost every single famous E-Book author has started out this way.
This doesn't mean you should stop here. Eventually, you will move into where most of the wealth mountains are - selling them, and then maybe their Resell Rights and Private Label licenses!
Another powerful tool to attract people to your E-Book is to make it interactive. Invent something for them to do within the book rather than just producing pages that contain static text. Let your readers fill out questionnaires, forms, even crossword puzzles geared to testing their knowledge on a particular subject. Have your readers hit a link that will allow them to recommend your book to their friends and associates. Or include an actual order form so at the end of their reading journey, they can eagerly buy your product.
When people interact with books, they become a part of the world of that book. The fact is just as true for books in print as it is for E-Books.
That's why E-Books are so essential. Not only do they provide a forum for people to learn and make sense of their own thoughts, but they can also serve to promote your business at the same time.

The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment
The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment
Eckhart Tolle is emerging as one of today's most inspiring teachers. In The Power of Now, already a word-of-mouth bestseller in Canada, the author describes his transition from despair to self-realization soon after his 29th birthday. Tolle took another ten years to understand this transformation, during which time he evolved a philosophy that has parallels in Buddhism, relaxation techniques, and meditation theory but is also eminently practical. In The Power of Now he shows readers how to recognize themselves as the creators of their own pain, and how to have a pain-free existence by living fully in the present. Accessing the deepest self, the true self, can be learned, he says, by freeing ourselves from the conflicting, unreasonable demands of the mind and living present, fully, and intensely, in the Now.
Customer Review: Powerful Clarity and Pragmatic Wisdom
The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle is a spiritual classic, bestseller and translated into over 30 languages. It was awarded a member of Oprah's Book Club. Eckhart's newer book, A New Earth, is presently the newest addition to the Oprah Book Club. Oprah and Eckhart are currently offering a ten week online class that is accessible for free registration at Oprah's website. The first class was enjoyed by 700,000 people worldwide, from 139 countries and represented by all fifty states in the U.S.
Eckhart was born in Germany and graduated from the University of London. He became a research scholar and supervisor at Cambridge University. At 29 years old, he experienced a profound spiritual transformation that dissolved his identity as he had previously known it. This began an intense inward journey that radically changed the course of his life. He now teaches worldwide and lives in Vancouver, BC.
He is not aligned with any particular religion and yet his message does not exclude any doctrine or dogma. He is communicating that there is a simple and pragmatic way out of suffering into enduring peace.
Power of Now is a guide to breaking free of the ego, the mind-made self, with all of its problems and conflicts. Eckhart finely dissects the ego's characteristics so that we become more conscious of how it operates. Who we are is beyond thought, emotion and form. Yet our body is the portal through which we enter a new reality to realize harmony, peace and joy. He encourages us to become more aware of the silence and space all around us and then points to inner space and stillness. Through becoming more conscious, we find that we can be free of psychological pain and open to our authentic power.
Power of Now is divided into 10 chapters with 191 pages. The Preface is written by Marc Allen, New World Library and the Foreword is by Russell Dicarlo, author of Towards a New World View.
In the Introduction, Eckhart shares the origin of the book and that the truth of who we really are lies within us. Chapter One is a study of the mind; the greatest obstacle to enlightenment. Through still attention, we can discover that we are not what we are thinking. He defines enlightenment as rising above thought and that emotion is the body's reaction to our thinking.
Chapter Two begins leading us out of psychological pain by pointing to consciousness. He offers keys to unlock accumulated pain of the past and introduces us to the collective pain body that is suffering and constantly trying to feed on more pain. Since the mind-made self believes that its identity lies within its individuality, it is on constant search to complete itself through people, things and circumstances. He shares that ego's entire search for happiness is really a search for wholeness.
In Chapter Three, we move deeply into the Now, the dimension that is free of time and demonstrates that nothing truly exists outside this present moment. He offers the key to the spiritual dimension and how to access the Power of Now. All suffering has its root in psychological time. Eckhart masterfully guides us in a clear and pragmatic manner into the joy of being.
Chapter Four offers the mind strategies for avoiding the now and that it is delusion to think that we can ever be apart from it. He discusses the manner in which we dissolve unhappiness and ordinary unconsciousness to discover the inner purpose of our life's journey. In Chapter Five, he leads us to the state of presence and to realize pure consciousness; our divine Reality.
Chapter Six is a journey into the inner body, where we find an invisible and indestructible reality that is beyond our thinking. He shares how we can also physiological benefit by being present; such as slowing the aging process and strenthening the immume system.
In Chapter Seven, Eckhart offers portals through which we may discover the inner unmanifest that is deep within our bodies such as dreamless sleep, silence, and space.
Eckhart Tolle shifts to Enlightened Relationships in Chapter Eight and we begin to arise about relationships that cycle between relative love and hate. Our relationships and indeed our intimate partners are excellent teachers and a perfect spiritual practice to learn how to live in a deeper state of presence. He encourages you to give up the relationship with yourself, the false sense of self that is the ego.
In Chapter Nine, we discover that beyond the duality and cycling between happiness and unhappiness, there is peace. We notice the impermanence of the cycling, end the emotional drama, discover true compassion and move toward a new order of Reality.
The final Chapter Ten presents the meaning of surrender so that we are able to live in acceptance of this moment just as it is. We shift from mind energy to spiritual energy, while we transform suffering into peace.
Over twenty years ago, I awakened spontaneously and had no idea what had occurred. Many years later, I was fortunate to become friends with Eckhart before the publishing of The Power of Now. In fact, Eckhart encouraged the writing of my new book, Awake Joy. I would just like to underline the fact that you have the opportunity for a radical transformation in your life and that this awakening is the answer to enduring peace. It is the end of suffering for you, your family and the world.
Customer Review: However, for a five star inspirational and remarkably candid recounting
I recommend That's How the Light Gets In: Memoir of a Psychiatrist by Susan Rako, M.D. The title comes from a song by Leonard Cohen: "There is a crack, a crack in everything. That's how the light gets in." Rako faced the "now" in her life with courage and integrity. Her book is wonderfully well-written and a great read. The writing just flows.
The Appeal
The Appeal
The jury was ready.
After forty-two hours of deliberations that followed seventy-one days of trial that included 530 hours of testimony from four dozen witnesses, and after a lifetime of sitting silently as the lawyers haggled and the judge lectured and the spectators watched like hawks for telltale signs, the jury was ready. Locked away in the jury room, secluded and secure, ten of them proudly signed their names to the verdict while the other two pouted in their corners, detached and miserable in their dissension. There were hugs and smiles and no small measure of self-congratulation because they had survived this little war and could now march proudly back into the arena with a decision they had rescued through sheer determination and the dogged pursuit of compromise. Their ordeal was over; their civic duty complete. They had served above and beyond. They were ready.
The foreman knocked on the door and rustled Uncle Joe from his slumbers. Uncle Joe, the ancient bailiff, had guarded them while he also arranged their meals, heard their complaints, and quietly slipped their messages to the judge. In his younger years, back when his hearing was better, Uncle Joe was rumored to also eavesdrop on his juries through a ?imsy pine door he and he alone had selected and installed. But his listening days were over, and, as he had con?ded to no one but his wife, after the ordeal of this particular trial he might just hang up his old pistol once and for all. The strain of controlling justice was wearing him down.
--From Chapter One of The Appeal
Politics has always been a dirty game.
Now justice is, too.
In a crowded courtroom in Mississippi, a jury returns a shocking verdict against a chemical company accused of dumping toxic waste into a small town’s water supply, causing the worst “cancer cluster” in history. The company appeals to the Mississippi Supreme Court, whose nine justices will one day either approve the verdict or reverse it.
Who are the nine? How will they vote? Can one be replaced before the case is ultimately decided?
The chemical company is owned by a Wall Street predator named Carl Trudeau, and Mr. Trudeau is convinced the Court is not friendly enough. With judicial elections looming, he decides to try to purchase himself a seat on the Court. The cost is a few million dollars, a drop in the bucket for a billionaire like Mr. Trudeau. Through an intricate web of conspiracy and deceit, his political operatives recruit a young, unsuspecting candidate. They finance him, manipulate him, market him, and mold him into a potential Supreme Court justice. Their Supreme Court justice.
The Appeal is a powerful, timely, and shocking story of political and legal intrigue, a story that will leave readers unable to think about our electoral process or judicial system in quite the same way ever again.
Customer Review: Quick Read
The book was delivered quickly. As I read, I began to view the political climate of America quite differently. This book was written with the same confiction as John Grisham's early books, A Time to Kill and The Firm. I worried that Grisham had lost his touch, but this book shows that He's back
Customer Review: The best of John Grisham yet
After a long time I'm compelled to recommend a book to all lawyers- present or past, all judges- present , past or wannabes, with or without a conscience and every person who has the remotest interest in law and politics. It was a thrilling fictional version of all that we already know and indeed the best work of John Grisham so far.
As a former lawyer, I strongly disagree with all those who would venture to argue that those judges who are appointed are not much better than the elected ones. They sadly missed the whole point. The question here is not what is better- election or appointment. But it is a revelation that the fabric of moral corruption is the same, whether it is the United States or any other place on this earth.
High Sierra Tank Messenger Bag
High Sierra Tank Messenger Bag
On wheels or on foot, there's nothing like the ready-for-action Tank to keep your cargo safe and sound. This over-the-shoulder pack keeps you comfortable with an adjustable shoulder strap featuring a large Vapel mesh shoulder pad. When you hit the road hard, the adjustable front flap with hook/loop closure and zippered slash pocket are more than prepared for a bumpy ride. Lifetime warranty.
Customer Review: A Little Larger Than I Expected, but still a great buy!
I absolutely love the color of this bag! The plaid also adds detail to an otherwise plain bag, something I was looking for, among all of the plain bags on the market today. It was a little larger than I expected, or wanted, but its size can be attributed to it being very wide and thin. I can fit several text books side-by-side and my laptop inside, yet I don't feel like I'm carrying a bulky backpack around with me. I really like the two mesh pouches on the sides; it's very convenient for carrying multiple drink bottles. The quality is excellent. I've only had it for a few months, but it has not started to show signs of wear yet.
This is an excellent bag for someone looking to carry around a large amount of stuff with them. If all you plan on carrying with you is a notebook and a few pens, look for something else that's smaller. If you were like me, and looking for something to carry several books and a computer in, then this bag will suit your purpose to the letter.
Customer Review: This is the bag for kids to take everything they need to school!
This messenger bag was exactly what I wanted. Both the size and color are perfect. My kids have had problems fitting notebooks into the size of most backpack made these days and they would die before pulling a backpack with a handle. A three ring binder fits easily in the messenger bag and the second opening fits my daughters lunch box. Both compartments have room to spare. The smaller pockets and the zipper pocket on the flap give tons of storage. The shoulder strap is padded for comfort and adjusts. This is a great bag! The quality is there. This isn't going to fall apart any time soon. Your kids can actually fit the things that they need to take to school in it. This was a REALLY good find!
Call Me Irresponsible
Call Me Irresponsible
Melding the contemporary and the classic in ways only he can, Michael Buble has created his most complete studio effort yet. Ranging from "I've Got The World On a String" to "Me and Mrs. Jones," in addition to two new songs co-written by Michael, Call Me Irresponsible makes this album irresistible.
Customer Review: Average CD
I really enjoy Michael Buble's music alot, but this is by far his worst CD to date. I like maybe 3 songs and the rest is not really worth listening to. I am very disappointed!!!!!
Customer Review: 21st Century crooner
Buble chooses the very classic love songs familiar to the baby boomer generation. He does a terrific job with them, the interpretation and color he imparts makes you believe he understands the intent of the song writer of so long ago. Recommended to Sinatra groupies.

Customer Review: Can't wait until "Miley Cyrus 2" is released
Just started listening to Hannah Montana 2: Meet Miley Cyrus yesterday and if you're thinking about buying this CD, don't wait any longer - it's awesome!
I really loved the first Hannah Montana debut CD and after listening to the new "Hannah 2" songs I actually think the new songs are even better, but I was mainly impressed with the "Miley Cyrus" co-written songs. Still can't believe that someone so young can have so much talent ... as an actress, singer, performer and songwriter.
Customer Review: Daughter's favorite CD
This seems to have two CD's with the normal Hannah Montana sound, as well as a new sound (Miley Cyrus). My daughter loves these CD's and I think I know every song on them. If you like Hannah Montana, you'll love this.

Apple MacBook Pro MA895LL/A 15.4" Laptop (2.2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 2 GB RAM, 120 GB Hard Drive, DVD/CD SuperDrive)
Stylishly and intelligently designed for mobile professionals, Apple's MacBook Pro gets a serious speed bump with the new, powerful Intel chipset (dubbed Santa Rosa), which provides a faster Core 2 Duo processor, longer battery life, and native support for 802.11n wireless connectivity.

Intel Core 2 Duo Processor
The Intel Core 2 Duo T7500 processor has a 2.2 GHz processor speed, super-fast 800 MHz front-side bus (FSB), and an enormous 4 MB of Smart Cache, an L2 cache that can be shared between the cores as needed. (An L2, or secondary, cache temporarily stores data; and a larger L2 cache can help speed up your system's performance. The FSB carries data between the CPU and RAM, and a faster front-side bus will deliver better overall performance.)
The Intel Core 2 Duo's 128-bit SSE3 vector engine handles 128-bit computations in a single clock cycle, accelerating data manipulation by simultaneously applying a single instruction to multiple data. And its two execution cores are designed to share resources and conserve power, helping it to achieve higher levels of performance since it uses fewer watts

The new 15-inch MacBook Pro offers a new mercury-free, power-efficient LED-backlit display with an antiglare finish that's perfect for color-minded professionals. |
Display and GraphicsThe 15.4-inch widescreen TFT (non-glossy) display offers a native resolution of 1440 x 900 pixels and an antiglare widescreen display that's perfect for color-minded professionals. The new MacBook Pro display is backlit by light emitting diodes (LEDs), which gives it a lighter weight and more power efficiency than the cold cathode fluorescent lamps (CCFLs) which most notebooks employ. It's also better for the environment, thanks to its new mercury-free display.
Video and graphics are powered by the NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT card, which is boosted by 128 MB of GDDR3 SDRAM. GDDR3 (Graphics Double Data Rate, version 3) is a graphics card-specific memory technology that's better able to deliver fluid frame rates for even the most advanced games and applications. The GeForce 8600M GT brings a new level of realism to the MacBook Pro with its 16-lane PCI Express architecture, 16x full screen anti-aliasing, 128-bit High Dynamic Range rendering, and a texture fill rate of up to 8.2 billion per second.
Hard Drive and Memory
The 120 GB Serial-ATA (SATA) hard drive (5400 RPM) provides more than enough space to store business-related documents and presentations, as well as offers space for a large digital audio and video library. This SATA hard drive also quickens the pace with a higher speed transfer of data--akin to FireWire and USB 2.0. The 2 GB of PC5300 DDR2 RAM (two SO-DIMMs of 1 GB) have an industry-leading 667 MHz speed, and the RAM capacity can be increased to a whopping 4 GB.
Wireless Connectivity
The built-in 802.11n wireless networking provides up to five times the performance and twice the range of 802.11g, but it's also backward-compatible with 802.11a/b/g routers, enabling you to communicate with the a wide variety of Wi-Fi resources. It works seamlessly with the new AirPort Extreme with 802.11n. Use the built-in Bluetooth wireless technology to connect to your PDA or cell phone, synchronize addresses, or download pictures from your cell phone. You can also use a wireless headset for iChat audio chats and VoIP calls as well as quickly share files with a colleague.
Video Conferencing with Built-in iSight
Artfully placed in the display bezel is an iSight camera, which enables easy video conferencing as well as allows you to snap pictures of yourself and create video podcasts. Using the iChat AV application, video conferencing is integrated into your iChat buddy list, so initiating a video conference is a breeze. iChat also lets you hold audio chats with up to 10 people and provides high-quality audio compression and full-duplex sound so conversation can flow naturally. For video podcasting, you can record a short clip using the iSight camera, then use iWeb to create a video blog entry or post your GarageBand-recorded podcast.
Apple Innovations

The magnetically connected MagSafe power adapter breaks cleanly away, without damage to either the cord or the MacBook Pro, if you trip over the cord.. |
The MacBook Pro is the culmination of years of refining hardware and software design to an integrated art. One of Apple's most celebrated innovations is the MagSafe power adapter connector with offers a magnetic connection instead of a physical one. So, if you happen to trip over a power cord, you won't send MacBook Pro flying off a table or desk--the cord simply disconnects, without damage to either the cord or the system. As an added nicety, this means less wear on the connectors.

Using two-fingered scrolling, you can easily scroll around your documents or open contextual menus with one hand. |
The trackpad can tell if you've got one finger on the pedal, or two. With two, you can easily scroll around your documents or open contextual menus. When you need right-click functionality, simply open ÒKeyboard and MouseÓ in System Preferences and enable the secondary click preference.
The MacBook Pro has battery life that rivals most notebooks in its class. If you'd like to make that battery last even longer, Mac OS X has a few tricks up its sleeve. Go to System Preferences, click Energy Saver, and change battery optimization from Normal to Better Battery Life. Or tell MacBook Pro to reduce its screen brightness and give yourself a little more time untethered.
And with the included Apple Remote and Front Row software, you can show off your latest photos and access your iTunes music and playlists from across the room. You can also use it to watch downloaded movies and TV episodes as well as control playback of DVD movies. The Apple Remote features a minimalist six buttons--just press the Menu button to activate Front Row and begin to navigate through your media. You can even use the remote to control Keynote presentations in iWork '06.

Customer Review: MacBook Pro
The MacBook Pro is great, looks great and works well. The only thing is the new operating system wasn't loaded to the laptop but the disk was included. Other than that, everything is great. Love it.
Customer Review: MacBook Pro
I bought this computer one month ago and the price has dropped $305! I bought an Apple for its reputation as a reliable system. This one crashes regularly, especially when I attempt to use the help function. Also, it does not pick up wireless signals unless they are very, very strong. My six-year old Toshiba works better than this machine. Definitely not worth the premium paid.

Cranium Hullabaloo
Cranium Hullabaloo
This game is sort of like Twister meets Simon Says. Lay the Hullabaloo pads around on the floor about two 'kid's feet' away from each other. The pads are different shapes and colors and have pictures and words on them. Turn on the game console and the cheerful music begins, a happy voice welcomes you to the game and then gives the simple directions you'll need to play. "Jump on a square shape," "Slide over to a red shape," "Hop to a shape with an animal on it" and so on. Then it might tell you to freeze, or to put a body part on one pad, and then a different body part on another. Then, it'll tell you that if you are on a particular pad at the end of that round, you are the winner. We found it to be fun, and easy to understand--though we did wonder how long it might hold a child's interest. --Megan Sullivan
Customer Review: kids LOVE this
This is one of those toys that gets the kids up an moving. Fun music, fun 'rewards' = "do a silly dance". they LOVE it. I am always looking for ways to 'reach' my boy who has autism. This just helps initiate play.
Customer Review: Children probably need to be at least five years old
I was so excited to get this toy after reading all of the awards that it had won. We have a 4, soon to be 5, little girl and a just turned 2 girl as well. I thought that at least the 4 year old could really enjoy it with her sister just "acting" like she was playing along. These girls are both very bright, but I believe that it will take another 6 months for them to be able to really play this together. I may have to sit down with them and just reveiw all of the different shapes and colors and drawings that are on the pads that the game is centered around. I had their Dad sit down with them because I was busy cooking breakfast......I think that someone with a little more patience has to be prepared to sit down with the young ones and maybe review the items with them.......other than that, I can't wait until I get the chance to do it with them.....it seems like a lot of fun for them and my kind of toy....educational.
