The furminator is a tremendous tool. Is easy to use and the fur flies off my dog like never before. This has made my life so much better.

This cable works, which isn’t surprising since HDMI is by definition a digital signal. Put paper clips in the right sequence and it’ll give you a crystal-clear picture.
I’ve only been using this guy for a couple days and so far, no problems at all. Don’t get gouged at your local store, get one of these.
The Letters of Columbus
Ok…so it’s not the most stylish piece of equipment but boy does it perform as advertised. The Garmin windshield mount is better than any on the market but even it has it’s moments where it can fall from the window at a bad time. The Garmin friction mount is simple and works great. I’ve slid pretty fast around some corners in my Silverado and the wife’s Pilot with this on the dash and it stayed right place. Quick and easy to stash in the console vs. the windshield mount as well.

Think of a juvenile James Bond with an IQ beyond Einstein’s. Then throw him in a world of technologically superior fairies, and the fun can begin.
And this is really what Artemis Fowl is about, first and foremost: FUN.
Some might say it reverts too easily to stereotypes, but I am not sure whether this is actually a bad thing. Too much depth, too much complexity in character development, might have taken the umpf out of the sheer fun ride I’ve had in reading Artemis.
The basic idea of the book–for those new to Fowl’s world–is that there is an underground world of fairies who go to great pains to keep their existence a secret from the human upper world. Until Artemis, a young criminal master mind, tracks down the fairies and upsets the whole balance of the worlds above and below ground.
In summary: Don’t expect the symbolism of Narnia, the metaphysics of His Dark Materials, or the detail of Harry Potter. Artemis Fowl doesn’t have any of those. Instead, expect to be blasted away by the explosive energy of a fun novel.

Well, I spent 30 minutes writing a thorough review for one of the best books I’ve read in a long time, and–it’s been three days–and it’s not showing up. I can’t recreate what took so long to write, so I’ll just say…this book is woooonderful. I hated for it to end.

I have read many books and this one was by far one I will read again and again. I work with the elderly so i had a attachment to Jacob right away. You do feel a certain pitty for the animals and people in this book. I won’t ruin the end but you will never find another book as heart felt and all inspiring as this one.

This book was fantastic! I could not put it down. I really felt connected to the characters and almost sad that they aren’t real people that I could find out more about! Great way to spend my time on pregnancy bedrest. Finished the book in 3 days which is very unusual for me. Enjoy!

I pick up this 8G SD card for sale to accomplish my ZS7 camera. I have faith with Transcend, which I have another card two years ago. No problems so far. The only comment is the price is falling out of the race.

Ok, so I recieved this scale 4 weeks ago so I can weight myself because the other 2 pervious ones I had broke and I only had the first one for 4 months and the second one for 3 weeks, and they were all Taylor scale. So recieved this scale and I was excited,base on the great reviews I though it would be good but unfortunaly once I listen to the critics instead of following my own gut. The problem with this scale is when I step on the scale it will say 182.6, so I step on it again to make sure and it says 184.3, so I step on it the third time and went back to 182.0.
Overall, this scale is good for its money worth, but I expected better!!!!
Hermit Crab Scooper
I, like everyone else, heard great stories about this amazing de-shedding tool, so I bought one and have tried it a dozen or so times on my American Eskimo dog. She looks like a giant snowball, an oversized Pomeranian or a miniature Samoyed for those of you who have never seen one – and as you can imagine, she has LOTS of hair and sheds tumbleweeds year round.
When I got this brush out of the package, the first thing I did it run it down my own arm to make sure it isn’t painful like those pin brushes (which I bet you will stop using once you try them on yourself). It it actually fairly uncomfortable when you test it on yourself, because the blades are very sharp, so even though they are aligned in such a way as to provide a largely flat grooming surface, they still scrape and scratch quite a bit. That being said, dogs have thicker, tougher skin than people (well, most dogs) and can handle a bit more roughness. So I tried it out on my Eskimo.
I fully admit that it did work as advertised, for which I’ll give it credit. The undercoat comes out little by little, in tiny poofs of wispy hair. If you groom for 15 minutes, you’re completely covered in wispy hair that is soft and impossible to gather up and throw away. After 5 minutes she was noticeably uncomfortable,after 10 minutes she was shewing on me and acting fussy, after 15 minutes she started making little whining noises, and after 20 minutes she was practically biting my arm in annoyance. She never likes grooming much, but she really did not care for this tool. It rips the undercoat out in small bits. I wouldn’t care for it either if it were me. I did get a lot of hair out of my dog, but she wouldn’t come to me for half a day afterward because she appeared to feel mistreated by the grooming session.
Each successive session was about the same. I knew I wasn’t really hurting her, but rather causing her quite a bit of discomfort, so I made sessions 10 minutes or less after that to minimize the soreness that apparen
