I do have a few things that i dont like. I hate how it doesn’t leave books you haven’t read yet marked as new. Plus I hate that books go on sale but yet Kindle books still say the same … therefore more then paperbacks. I bought my kindle because I heard books were cheaper but really they aren’t.

The nintendo wii is a breath of fresh air to the video game industry. In a world saturated with first person shooters, games geared for adult crowd, and an abundance of blood and gore, it is refreshing to have a game experience that you can have and not worry about whose head will be chopped off or how many kills you have. I love that the wii causes you to actually get off the couch and do something. You can actually work out while playing video games. Nintendo took the first step. Now it’s time for some good changes to the industry.

I have owned so many different pedeometers and been totally disappointed with the performance. The Omron HJ-112 is the BEST pedometer I have ever owned. The product keeps accurate steps and has not broke down (which my other products did within a month of use). I would recommend this pedometer to everyone!! Love it!Omron HJ-112 Digital Pocket Pedometer

I was a bit skeptical, but this an easy affordable option that had a wonderful outcome. The book got to me in three or four days, and was in really good condition. I look forward to my next purchase! (I got the book for less than half of what I would’ve paid retail… including shipping!) If you can wait a few days for your book, go this route!

***SPOILER ALERT***
Put this novel on the FUN READ shelf. Definitely nothing mind-blowing in terms of plot or prose but a very entertaining look at depression era circus life.
The author alternates (for the most part) chapters between Jacob’s life during the depression and his life as a 90 year old in a nursing home. One gets the sense that the author seeks to evoke some sympathy for the 90 year Jacob’s plight. In this endeavor she fails as she never fully fleshes out his relationship with his children. Thus the reader is left feeling slightly apathetic as to his plight as a lonely and ornery old man wasting away in a assisted living facility.
Finally, the ending is a bit contrived and convenient. The frail old Jacob making a break for it out of the retirement home and going to the circus event that is in town. There of course he meets and befriends one of the circus directors who spirits him away on their cross country tour. Happily ever blah blah blah.
All of this is not to discourage someone from reading this novel. The author can write with rhythm and keeps the pacing light and quick. Viewing the novel as a love story, the author is adept at capturing the dual emotional nature of love with phrases like: “exhausted and recharged, desperate and fulfilled.” With a good writer, this book would make a great movie.

Just love my FURminator. We have a Doberman mix and it works great on him.
My girlfriend tried it on her dog, which has longer hair and it worked also just find. So she had to have one!
There is a lot less hair in the house. Thanks to this product I cut my vacuum time in half.

I feel this version is much harder for me to navigate and find the features I want to use. But I do not use it that often to make it a big issue.

This is the by far the best money spent to date on running gear. It makes me want to get out there to log another run just so I can upload the data to my PC. I click the watch onto the base attaced to my PC with a USB cable. It automatically grabs all the new data then displays it by mile and by total. some data columns include: max heart rate, ave heart rate, distance, time, pace, elevation change, calories etc. You can also graph up to 4 of these to compare against each other for your run. The map included in the software is very basic, but with the click of the mouse it will transfer data points to google earth where you can see your route over aerial maps. excellent purchase. Have already convinced 4 people to buy one.
