I fed Canidae ALS (old formula) for 7+ years and my dogs thrived. Canidae switched their formula (and mfg) and I immediately switched to another food afer the reported of problems. My feed store talked me into trying their ‘new’ formula, and I went back to ALS – BIG mistake. I have experienced 15-20+% weight loss, explosive diarreha, vomitting, lethargy. etc. I have 5 dogs – 60-100+ lbs, varying pedigrees, ages 1 to 12+ – all sick (15-20% weight loss, poor coats, vomitting, etc.). I have had to run complete extensive blood panels to rule out other health problems on all the dogs – bottomline – blood panels were OK, food (Canidae) was the issue. What use to be a fantastic food is now a very dangerous food to feed. An entire pack of dogs’ health declined on the ‘new’ formula. I switched foods (something other than Canidae) and my dogs are now recovering. If you love Las Vegas and Russian Roulette feed Canidae – if want to avoid major Vet expenses and heartache choose another food. Do your homework – research the Canidae ALS problems – then make the best ‘educated’ decision for you and your pets.

I like this product. I had it before and lost it when I needed to do a system restore back to factory a few months ago. I’m glad I have it back now.
30 PC ULTIMATE SUPER

You will soar through the skies when you read twilight. When you read Twilight by Stephanie Myers you will be flying with Edward, running with Bella and you will find yourself in a different world where you never want two stop.
Twilight is about a girl named Bella who moves to go live with her dad in Forks. She has to go to a different school with new people. Bella meets her friends and she meets the Cullen family. A family that never talks to anyone and Bella wants to know what the family is hiding. Bella is the center of attention when she gets in to a lot of accidents. Edward will find himself saving her for more reasons than you think.
There is one problem for Bella. Edward is her lab partner. Bella has problems with the Cullen family and soon she falls for someone who is more dangerous than anyone can imagine. Bella will fall head over heels for someone who might put her in danger if she is not careful. My opinion of the book is you will find yourself putting down the video games sitting down and reading. You will never find yourself not interested as you join Edward and Bella and so many other characters on the journey of a life time. Now you may be on Jacob’s side like me but when you start reading this book you will be debating on which team you want to be on now. If you know that you will always be on Jacobs’s team then you should know that Edward will be sweet and you will wish that you were Bella.
I recommend this book to children who like adventure and a little romance or for kids who just want to find out who is really the best. Come and join the debate. Whose side are you on? Edward or Jacob? This book is the story of a life time and you will be reading instead of playing.

This Garmin portable GPS dashboard friction mount is much easier to use than the type that is attached to the windshield with a large suction cup mechanism, which is a dead giveaway that you probably have a (pricey) GPS in your car. (No smart person would leave the GPS itself in view of a potential thief, I would hope.) The Friction Mount can quickly and easily be removed and shoved under the seat or elsewhere. It’s also much easier to attach/remove the GPS to/from the mount. I’m happy with it.

Ok…I’m not much into writing reviews, but I feel compelled to chime in on this product. I have been an on-again, off-again runner for several years and have as my goal to run in 1 or 2 half-marathons each year. Getting under a 2 hour 1/2 marathon is always my goal. Up until the time of getting/using the Garmin 305 I have been using a standard running watch, the Timex Ironman. The Ironman has been a great watch in its own regard, but I really wanted to focus on heart-rate zone training to improve my overall conditioning and stamina in the later parts of my long training runs and in the events themselves. Literally within a couple of weeks of using the Garmin 305, I saw my overall level of conditioning improve approximately 10%, which as you know is pretty huge. With max VO interval work, I can now run a full minute faster per mile (from 10:00/mi down to 9:00/mi) quite comfortably and keep my heart rate high zone 3 and low zone 4 now. It actually feels “comfortable” to me in this range. I did a 14 mile training run yesterday and kept my BPM in this range through the 12 mile mark. The last 2 miles were zone 4 to low zone 5, but were do-able and I always felt “informed” about my heart health.

Other than being able to track real-time metrics during a run, probably the absolute coolest feature of this watch is through its software. It comes with Garmin Training Center (PC and Mac) and it allows you to usb-sync each of your runs (or biking or swimming) and view any of a dozen metrics throughout the run. You may also upload your runs to GarminConnect and view your run on satellite and google maps. Waaaayyyy cool!

Aside from the attendant bells and whistles, this GPS watch has performed rock solid in various weather conditions and has helped me bunches to get to the next level in my running regimen. I can’t say enough about this product. At the price point (approx. 1/2 the $’s of the 310) I would highly recommend this watch to everyone who is looking to i

I love this vacuum. It is lightweight and very easy to use. It does a great job on the animal hair. So glad I decided to get this one. The only thing I would change about it is a longer accessory hose.

We injoy the games and the work out that is on the wii fit plus. The work out has helped to trim and tone the body. I can see an improvement already.

I love this pedometer! EZ setup and operation. Best of all I don’t HAVE to wear it at my waist – it can be clipped inside my bra, etc. Also, it has a safety harness which has saved me numerous times – if it comes un-clipped from my pocket or waistband, the safety harness catches it!
