Since it arrived about 1 month ago, I have used it every 7 to 10 days on my Rat Terrier — so much undercoat comes off that he looks visibly smaller & it most definitely reduces his indoor shedding. I know he is more comfortable in the Alabama summer heat. Even my Boston Terrier’s coat and indoor shedding are improved. I bought the medium size even though my dogs are small, works fine on them, doesn’t cause any discomfort but takes a little practice. Every dog owner should have one of these, but shop around for best price.
Knilling VIVA Compact Violin
This is not the first time I recieve product from Amazon that was repackaged but I could not tell if it was used. I don’t mind if the item was opened/used but you advertise it as new. Besides the size of the 305 it does everything and more for aspiring triathlete. Like the fact that it handles multiple sports (bike, run, ski). GPS is on target so far. Insturctions seem simple but I refer to youtube clips to learn fuctions. Overall good value.
Music Basics Electric Violin
yes it’s very accurate. But, it pokes me, it falls off, it’s top heavy and drives me nuts. I had an eagle accusplit for 6 years, it never poked me, and never fell off for 6 years. The new omron has been in a drawer now, and I guess I’ll get another eagle.

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 found this book in a dusty little corner of my local used bookstore (yes, they do still exist) and was intrigued by the title and premise. A few months later I have now read the entire trilogy and must say it really speaks directly to the soul, bypassing all the mental gatekeeping we humans come up with to deny ourselves direct contact with the source of our being. I’m not one of those folks who think that all religions are only in the business of building their own power by feeding gullible minds with fear and judgment — there are certainly very enlightened folks with open hearts and minds within organized religion. Yet, I’ve always been skeptical of the ones who try to tell you that their views are absolute and threaten you if you choose a different vehicle to find love and meaning in life. It’s just too obvious that anyone who tries to tell you that God is vengeful or would exclude some of us is just insecure in themselves. As Michael Franti says: “God is too big for just one nation, and God is too big for just one religion.” Yell Fire!
What tells me that Neale Donald Walsch has really tapped into the essence of God is that the books read as refreshingly and truthfully in 2009 as they must have when they first came out in the mid-90s. This phenomenon in itself is discussed in the book — the fact that God really is timeless and nameless. Too often we’re stuck in the dualistic mechanisms of our mind that tells us to divide everything — yesterday versus tomorrow, us versus them, believers vs non-believers. In that very same mindset we also like to look at “God” as a particular thing or person, something we can imagine or portray with our thoughts. And too often, religious texts create the same kind of hierarchy of spirit that we assign to our social structures on earth. For example, looking at God as “The Father” is a very common image conjured by a patriarchic mindset, as if there’s some sort of a guy sitting somewhere up there wagging his imaginary finger at

How to encapsulate the success of Kathryn Socket’s The Help?
When I noticed this book on the New York Times best sellers’ list I placed a hold at the local library. Not surprisingly for a bestselling Oprah endorsed novel I was last hold on a list of around 900 people.
More surprising is when I finally received the book, and finished reading it last week, The Help could still be seen on the bestsellers’ list. I guess The Help falls under that desirable category of the `Next American Novel’, we’re talking a literary piece here, not some cheesy thriller or over the top moral bludgeon of a novel.
The Help is set in the sixties and follows three woman, Abileen and Minny two African American maids (the help) and Miss Skeeter and young white woman aspiring to be a writer – who decides that in order to impress the publishing community she’s going to have to tackle a pretty controversial topic and decides to chronicle the lives of `the help’ in Jackson, Mississippi.
Even with fake names this is a dangerous undertaking as segregation is still ripe in the southern state and racial tensions are skyrocketing due to the activism of Martin Luther King Jnr. Racial tension isn’t the only issue in this novel either, as the lead characters deal with spousal abuse, death, alcoholism and high fashion.
This novel has a fair helping of humor some of is quite black (J) but Socket’s real achievement is to avoid making a novel about racial segregation a black and white issue and make it about people, in all their imperfections and redeeming features. Don’t expect an action thriller with this one, but an emotional piece with tension seething subtly below the surface.

Christmas Jazzin About Violin
I’m going to go out on a limb here. Let me get right to the point: This is a terrible book.
Harsh? Maybe, but that’s how it is. About the time Artemis Fowl hit the market, I heard it claimed that Eoin Colfer was 14 when he wrote it. On some simple checking of dates, the claim seems unlikely (he was 36 when it was published). But the book is so badly written that it’s believable. If this was fanfic, everyone would be pointing at the protagonist and shouting “Gary Stu! Gary Stu!” (If that doesn’t ring any bells, try looking up “Mary Sue” instead.) The descriptive style … well, what can one say about the descriptive style? Phil Foglio uses some very similar characterisations in his Myth books. (Compare Guido and Nunzio to Fowl’s butler, for example.) The difference is, Foglio is writing humorous — and occasionally risqué — parody (and doing a good job of it) … but Colfer is serious. And it just doesn’t work. The characters are cardboard and flat; the plot is predictable and stereotyped, and yet manages to strain even a teenager’s willing suspension of disbelief with its excesses of “But wait, there’s more.”
Granted, this is supposed to be “young adult” fiction. But so is Harry Potter; and the qualkity of writing and plot development in Harry Potter are so far above Artemis Fowl that there’s scarcely any comparision. I know if anyone had given me a copy of Artemis Fowl when I was a “young adult”, I’d have been insulted that they thought my reading level was so low.

I was disappointed with this purchase. A hard copy of the product was never shipped to me. I sent an e-mail to the seller and never received a response. Had I know it was a download purchase, I never would have made it. I wanted the box and disc.
