Get Rich on the Internet E-books are Revealed as Scams



What is your dream? Like the homeless man told Julia Roberts on Pretty
Woman, "We all have a dream". Is it to live in a nice home, pay for your children's education without going further into debt, to take a vacation once a year without breaking the bank, or is your dream to live financially free of burdens and stress. We all have a dream and you can find your dream if you know where to look. Unfortunately for some, their dreams are bashed on the rocks of scams that take
advantage of people only trying to get ahead in the world. There are tons of sites on the Internet today that offer "get rich" schemes (and that's what they are, schemes) and people buy into them thinking all they have to do is purchase a book or a program and they will become multi-millionaires overnight. Unfortunately this is rarely the case with those programs because they don't teach you anything you don't already know. They don't realize that you are a savvy businessperson and you've heard it all before. But let me tell you, my friend, that you have heard nothing like you will hear from my Mark Warren. He is the leading authority on Internet marketing and he can show you how to take your site from just another page on the Internet to a thriving, breathing, and pulsating site that is buzzing with traffic and generating massive amount of income. He has put together the Ultimate Wealth Package, "make sure to put in your affiliate link" in this he explains how he went from being a high school drop out to making hundreds of thousands of dollars on the Internet every year.

Divided, expandable file section Luggage strap for easy attachment to rolling travel cases Case dimensions - 13.5H x 17.5W x 6.5D Interior dimensions - 12.9H x 16.5W x 2.2D

Customer Review: Works well for my Mac!

My main concern was this was going to be a PC centric bag with no thought for the Mac. Well, it fits my Macbook Pro just perfectly and safely. I can store all the extras in the outside pocket and have plenty of room for incidentals, as well as have the other side for paperwork I don't want to be turned into premature recyclable pulp. My only wish was they had a genuine Brown, non-dyed version. I could find no other manufacturer making a nicer model in natural color so this seemed to be the best bet. I've had it for a while now and it's been working out just fine.

Customer Review: great case

I received the notebook case in just a few days from my order and was very pleasantly surprised by the quality of the case. The service was excellent and I would by from this vendor again.

Customer Review: Great Buy!!

I bought this for my 4 year old son's birthday. He is a total star wars fanatic. I was hesitant to buy this because I thought it would break easily because he is so ruff with his toys. That totally wasn't the case. The toy is very durable. The only thing that seems sort of flimsy is the cockpit door but if it comes off it snaps right back on. This is a great toy for all ages. The toy is well worth what I paid for it!

Customer Review: Awesome toy!

My 11 year old son loves this toy. It is durable enough to stand up to his constant use and crashes. If you can buy the Anakin Skywalker Saga Legends action figure it fits nicely in the cockpit. My son says that "anyone who likes Star Wars should buy this ship."

Customer Review: Worth it!

This skin is great. It's easy to type with it on the keys. It's see through and keeps crumbs, dust and other stuff from getting down in the keys on your keypad.

Got this toy for my 6 and 3 year old boys. They play with it all the time. My three year old is pretty small and he has this huge watch on his arm just working the dial. He really digs it. It does not do much but makes noise and my kid loves that. He thinks he is Ben Ten. So, any toy they play with is good. It did not do much for me but I expected more technology for the price.

Turn Your Ideas Into Books



Turn Your Ideas Into Books


by Laura Backes, Write4Kids.com - The Children's Writing SuperSite



Maybe you're one of those lucky writers whose head is
bursting with ideas. Or perhaps you have one idea that's
been nagging you for weeks, always at the edge of your
thoughts. Either way, you're itching to begin writing.
That's good. But before you rush headlong into your story,
stop and ask yourself one question: Is this just an idea, or
is it a book?


Ideas, of course, are the seeds of any work of fiction or
nonfiction. But until an idea is fully developed, until you
can envision its beginning, middle and end, that one idea
might not be enough. The experience of writing for pages
about an idea and ultimately getting nowhere (or getting a
pile of rejections) has taught many writers to outline their
books before they begin. But if the thought of an outline
sends shivers up your spine, at least thinking your idea
through and making sure it merits months of writing can save
you future frustration.


Ideas for Fiction


A lot of writers, especially when they're beginners, get
ideas for fiction from their own lives. This can be useful
for several reasons: you're emotionally invested in the
topic, you can relate directly to the main character, and if
the situation actually happened to you, you're less likely
to be unconsciously basing the story on a book you've read.
But remember, just because you find this thing that happened
to you or your child fascinating, it doesn't mean it will be
fascinating to thousands of potential readers. Very often, a
real-life event is just that--an event. It's a vivid scene
you recall with pleasure, or a family joke that's repeated
over and over. It evokes strong emotions when you remember
it, perhaps you even look back on an event as a turning
point in your life. But only rarely does reality provide a
plot.


When writers stick too closely to what really happened they
fail to develop the elements necessary for a good story: a
believable main character who is faced with a problem or
conflict, mounting tension as that character tries to solve
her problem and experiences setbacks, and a tension- filled
climax followed by a resolution that's satisfying to the
character and the reader. If your main character is really
your son, you might not want to get him in trouble or throw
rocks in his path. But you have to. It's the only way you'll
create a story that will keep readers hooked and wondering
how it will end.


Speaking of endings, if the resolution of your story comes
too easily, it's probably obvious and predictable. Try
mixing up real life and have the situation evolve in a
different direction. Surprise yourself, and you'll surprise
an editor.


However you get your idea, focus first on whether it's a
plot or a theme. Many times, an initial idea is really the
underlying meaning of the story, what the author wants to
convey to the reader. Themes should be universal in their
appeal-- such as friendship, appreciating one's own
strengths, not judging others too quickly. Then play around
with the sequence of events until you develop a plot (what
actually happens in the book) that makes this theme clear to
the reader. And remember; if you're using a childhood
incident as the foundation of your story, tell it from your
childhood viewpoint, not how it feels to you now as an
adult.


Ideas for Nonfiction


Your nonfiction book should be based on something you're
truly interested in and passionate about. After all, you'll
be living with this idea for many months. The key to
successful nonfiction is to take your idea and approach it
in a way that no one else has ever done before. This means
doing most of your research before you begin to write. Don't
settle for the most easily-found information on your topic--
your readers have probably read the same information. Keep
digging until you find an aspect to your subject that
strikes you as unique. Then search through the library and
book stores to make sure no one else has already beat you to
it.


For a nonfiction idea to become a book, you need enough
information to fill the number of pages necessary, depending
on the age group for which you plan to write. Younger
children need a foundation of basic facts, but you can also
get fairly detailed within the scope of the approach you've
chosen as long as you explain concepts in a simple and
straightforward manner (how animals hibernate, why insects
are different colors). Older readers can draw on a broader
foundation of knowledge, and infer connections between your
topic and related subjects. A detailed outline of any
nonfiction book is essential to help you see if your idea
has enough substance and originality, or if you need further
research before you begin writing.


Whether it's fiction or nonfiction, your idea should mean
something to you, but also have the potential to mean a lot
to your readers. Think it through, add to it, take the
nonessential elements away, and make sure it has a
beginning, middle and end. Only then will your "idea" turn
into "an idea for a book."

Honda--CR-V/Odyssey 1995-00 (Chilton's Total Car Care Repair Manual)



Honda--CR-V/Odyssey 1995-00 (Chilton's Total Car Care Repair Manual)
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: Lacks Detail

This manual covers too broad a vehicle spectrum and lacks detail necessary to do a serious repair with confidence. Diagrams are spotty in their coverage and references to obscure tools like "noid lights" are not explained.

Customer Review: Good as always, but...

As always, the Chilton's manuals are pretty comprehensive and easy to follow. However, Honda changed the style of the Odyssey from a four-door to a minivan in 2000. This manual doesn't cover the 2000 minivan in spite of what the title says.



Italia



Italia
Grammy winning trumpeter Chris Botti has returned in top form with Italia, his most lushly romantic and expressive album to date. Featuring duets with some of today's biggest international stars including Andrea Bocelli, Paula Cole, and Dean Martin, Botti's rich and articulate musical collection is truly beautiful, enchanting, and understatedly elegant.

Customer Review: Venice CD is a wonderful addition

This is a wonderful album... love the contributing artists pieces. One feels that you are in Italy for a few wonderful moments. I would recommend this CD...actually have done so already! Great work Mr. Botti!

Customer Review: crossover flop

This disc epitomizes everything I hate about classical and jazz crossover. It borrows from the same tired formula: take a photogenic artist, slap together a comfort-food track list, and put it on the market.



Someone gave this to me as a birthday gift. Now, I'm saddled with having to keep this dog of an album around, lest I hurt their feelings. Damn...



P.S.- Since when is the word "estate" written with an accent over the final vowel? How amateur!



Change Your Brain, Change Your Life: The Breakthrough Program for Conquering Anxiety, Depression, Obsessiveness, Anger, and Impulsiveness

To Quell Anxiety and Panic:
¸  Use simple breathing techniques to immediately calm inner turmoil
To Fight Depression:
¸  Learn how to kill ANTs (automatic negative thoughts)
To Curb Anger:
¸  Follow the Amen anti-anger diet and learn the nutrients that calm rage
To Conquer Impulsiveness and Learn to Focus:
¸  Develop total focus with the "One-Page Miracle"
To Stop Obsessive Worrying:
¸  Follow the "get unstuck" writing exercise and learn other problem-solving exercises

Customer Review: I think my last brain liked it

I read this book, grabbed a hacksaw and a some salad tongs and, believe you me, my life HAS changed!

Customer Review: YES!

Absolutely fantastic and engaging. The most important thing this book has to offer is hope and I am for any and all books which offer realistic hope. I have suffered through a lot in my life and have overcome nearly as much, but book after book left me wanting. This book did not. It delivered. I have always needed improvement for my brain - I have ADD, suffered from PTSD and Depression.

stop and ask yourself one question: Is this just an idea, or
is it a book?


Ideas, of course, are the seeds of any work of fiction or
nonfiction. But until an idea is fully developed, until you
can envision its beginning, middle and end, that one idea
might not be enough. The experience of writing for pages
about an idea and ultimately getting nowhere (or getting a
pile of rejections) has taught many writers to outline their
books before they begin. But if the thought of an outline
sends shivers up your spine, at least thinking your idea
through and making sure it merits months of writing can save
you future frustration.


Ideas for Fiction


A lot of writers, especially when they're beginners, get
ideas for fiction from their own lives. This can be useful
for several reasons: you're emotionally invested in the
topic, you can relate directly to the main character, and if
the situation actually happened to you, you're less likely
to be unconsciously basing the story on a book you've read.
But remember, just because you find this thing that happened
to you or your child fascinating, it doesn't mean it will be
fascinating to thousands of potential readers. Very often, a
real-life event is just that--an event. It's a vivid scene
you recall with pleasure, or a family joke that's repeated
over and over. It evokes strong emotions when you remember
it, perhaps you even look back on an event as a turning
point in your life. But only rarely does reality provide a
plot.


When writers stick too closely to what really happened they
fail to develop the elements necessary for a good story: a
believable main character who is faced with a problem or
conflict, mounting tension as that character tries to solve
her problem and experiences setbacks, and a tension- filled
climax followed by a resolution that's satisfying to the
character and the reader. If your main character is really
your son, you might not want to get him in trouble or throw
rocks in his path. But you have to. It's the only way you'll
create a story that will keep readers hooked and wondering
how it will end.


Speaking of endings, if the resolution of your story comes
too easily, it's probably obvious and predictable. Try
mixing up real life and have the situation evolve in a
different direction. Surprise yourself, and you'll surprise
an editor.


However you get your idea, focus first on whether it's a
plot or a theme. Many times, an initial idea is really the
underlying meaning of the story, what the author wants to
convey to the reader. Themes should be universal in their
appeal-- such as friendship, appreciating one's own
strengths, not judging others too quickly. Then play around
with the sequence of events until you develop a plot (what
actually happens in the book) that makes this theme clear to
the reader. And remember; if you're using a childhood
incident as the foundation of your story, tell it from your
childhood viewpoint, not how it feels to you now as an
adult.


Ideas for Nonfiction


Your nonfiction book should be based on something you're
truly interested in and passionate about. After all, you'll
be living with this idea for many months. The key to
successful nonfiction is to take your idea and approach it
in a way that no one else has ever done before. This means
doing most of your research before you begin to write. Don't
settle for the most easily-found information on your topic--
your readers have probably read the same information. Keep
digging until you find an aspect to your subject that
strikes you as unique. Then search through the library and
book stores to make sure no one else has already beat you to
it.


For a nonfiction idea to become a book, you need enough
information to fill the number of pages necessary, depending
on the age group for which you plan to write. Younger
children need a foundation of basic facts, but you can also
get fairly detailed within the scope of the approach you've
chosen as long as you explain concepts in a simple and
straightforward manner (how animals hibernate, why insects
are different colors). Older readers can draw on a broader
foundation of knowledge, and infer connections between your
topic and related subjects. A detailed outline of any
nonfiction book is essential to help you see if your idea
has enough substance and originality, or if you need further
research before you begin writing.


Whether it's fiction or nonfiction, your idea should mean
something to you, but also have the potential to mean a lot
to your readers. Think it through, add to it, take the
nonessential elements away, and make sure it has a
beginning, middle and end. Only then will your "idea" turn
into "an idea for a book."

Honda--CR-V/Odyssey 1995-00 (Chilton's Total Car Care Repair Manual)



Honda--CR-V/Odyssey 1995-00 (Chilton's Total Car Care Repair Manual)
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: Lacks Detail

This manual covers too broad a vehicle spectrum and lacks detail necessary to do a serious repair with confidence. Diagrams are spotty in their coverage and references to obscure tools like "noid lights" are not explained.

Customer Review: Good as always, but...

As always, the Chilton's manuals are pretty comprehensive and easy to follow. However, Honda changed the style of the Odyssey from a four-door to a minivan in 2000. This manual doesn't cover the 2000 minivan in spite of what the title says.



Italia



Italia
Grammy winning trumpeter Chris Botti has returned in top form with Italia, his most lushly romantic and expressive album to date. Featuring duets with some of today's biggest international stars including Andrea Bocelli, Paula Cole, and Dean Martin, Botti's rich and articulate musical collection is truly beautiful, enchanting, and understatedly elegant.

Customer Review: Venice CD is a wonderful addition

This is a wonderful album... love the contributing artists pieces. One feels that you are in Italy for a few wonderful moments. I would recommend this CD...actually have done so already! Great work Mr. Botti!

Customer Review: crossover flop

This disc epitomizes everything I hate about classical and jazz crossover. It borrows from the same tired formula: take a photogenic artist, slap together a comfort-food track list, and put it on the market.



Someone gave this to me as a birthday gift. Now, I'm saddled with having to keep this dog of an album around, lest I hurt their feelings. Damn...



P.S.- Since when is the word "estate" written with an accent over the final vowel? How amateur!

Audio Books Hot For 2006


Audio books have been around for many years, but they have become more popular recently. It is said that they will become even more popular in 2006. There are many trends that will hit the audio books market in 2006.



Say goodbye to audio CD and cassettes and say hello to downloadable audio books. MP3 audio books and other formats of digital audio books will become cheaper and easier to access. Audio books on CD?s and cassettes tend to be more of an inconvenience, even though they are more user friendly. But this year the amount of listeners who download audio books from the internet to listen on their various mobile devices will rise significantly. This does not come as a big surprise as MP3s have become more popular then portable CD players.



Similar to the DVD market, most audio book listeners will prefer to rent audio books instead of buying them. It seems this trend will be the strongest for downloadable audio books but is also true for audio books on CD and books on tape.



Another trend that will become popular is the online audio book services, which will offer low cost and free audio books through free trial offers and special deals. So in some cases, you may not even have to buy the book.



The audio books market has been quite popular in the United Kingdom; in 2004 it sold over $124 million. It is said that the trend is soon going to take Europe by storm. In 2005 the market in Germany grew to $120 million. It is expected to rise about 20 % in the whole continent during the year of 2006.



So join the band wagon and get yourself some audio books. You can listen to them while doing exercise. Instead of listening to music you can listen to your favourite book.

Across the Universe (Two-Disc Special Edition)



Across the Universe (Two-Disc Special Edition)
Across the Universe, from director Julie Taymor, is a revolutionary rock musical that re-imagines America in the turbulent late-1960s, a time when battle lines were being drawn at home and abroad. When young dockworker Jude (Jim Sturgess) leaves Liverpool to find his estranged father in America, he is swept up by the waves of change that are re-shaping the nation. Jude falls in love with Lucy (Evan Rachel Wood), a rich but sheltered American girl who joins the growing anti-war movement in New York's Greenwich Village. As the body count in Vietnam rises, political tensions at home spiral out of control and the star-crossed lovers find themselves in a psychedelic world gone mad. With a cameo by Bono, Across the Universe is "the kind of movie you watch again, like listening to a favorite album." (Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times)

Customer Review: Not for Beatle fans...

I'm a Huge Beatles Fan and this movie did not made justice for the kind of music they used. The story was so plain, the singing was very teenage girl-like and the videos were so forced into the songs that they did not even made any sense. I believe making a movie with this theme was essential for our times, but this one does not keep up with the weight of working with something that is so important to so many people as Beatles music. If you are a Beatles fan, see it and see for how long you can watch without getting angry.

Customer Review: Don't waste your money

This DVD was a total waste of money. The story was lame and the music an insult to any true Beatle fan

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

Self-help Books Are Popular Reading


There are many common mental problems that can plague our every day lives, making us unhappy and sick. Worry, stress, anger, fear, depression, insomnia, self-doubt, nervousness are some of the worse. Since each day lost to these ills cannot be replaced, we ought to be doing something about it.



While we should always consult a medical professional when we have physical or mental problems, there are often many ways that we can help ourselves to a better life.



In the area of self-help there is much to draw upon when looking for ways to improve our lives. Many ideas have been written by great thinkers of the past and best-selling authors of today. Often words written two thousand years ago are more effective than words written today, perhaps because they have withstood the test of time.



These ideas are easy enough to understand, but more difficult to practice. But it just takes practice. A good place to start is the self-help or self-improvement section of your public library or bookstore. If you think that this is an odd place in which to be seen, think again. There are very many big selling self-help titles to choose from. These books are popular reading.



Start with the most popular books on various self-help topics. Reread the better ones, highlight the best phrases, and take notes. Set aside fifteen minutes a day to help make good thinking and happy, satisfied feelings a way of life. It could be the best time investment you ever made.



"All truly wise thoughts have been thought already thousands of times; but to make them truly ours, we must think them over again honestly, till they take root in our personal experience." - Johann von Goethe (1749-1832)

New York Giants - Super Bowl XLII Champions - Commemorative Paperback Book
Relive the greatest moments of Super Bowl XLII with this beautiful new commemorative book, capturing the action and pageantry of the New England Patriots and New York Giants title clash. It's the perfect addition to your sports library and for display in your home or office. This 128 page softcover book is filled with quality color photography and highlights of the Patriots Undefeated Season. Officially licensed by the NFL.

Customer Review: Great Story and a Poster Too!

The Giants may not have been perfect during the regular season but they were in the playoffs with one exciting win after another, each being more spectacular than the previous one! The Patriots came into the game forgetting the one big rule in most team sports that great defense will always beat a great offense!



The Giants grew as a team during the season and learned from each game. Having lost to Dallas, Green Bay and New England, they made adjustments to compensate for those loses and as rookie players began to shine, the Giants morphed into a team of destiny winning the most exciting Super Bowl ever! A must have for any Giants fan.







The Present



The Present
Customer Review: Difficult to find

I had never heard of this cd, came across it browsing your site. There was fast shipping and the product got here still sealed.

Customer Review: Better than I remembered

3.5 stars



This was a follow-up to their #1 album, Long Distance Voyager, and I think these guys climbed such heights with LDV that they set themselves up to fail on this one. At least, that was my initial impression. If memory serves correctly, I gave this a try a couple of times when it was initially released, and then set it aside and started listening to LDV again.



With the iPod revolution, I've started listening to some of my older music again, and I thought I'd give this another shot. What I discovered was that *I* had been expecting The Moody Blues to produce another LDV, and so was disappointed to get The Present. That was most unfortunate, because while The Present doesn't stand up head-to-head with LDV, there's a lot of worthy music here.



I'll admit, though, that I still found Blue World and Meet Me Halfway lacking and disappointing - bland music that doesn't really go anywhere. I'd always loved Sitting at the Wheel from the first time I heard it, and found that to be the same again. With different lyrics, it might have been a bigger hit for them. What I discovered was that Going Nowhere, It's Cold Outside of Your Heart, and Sorry (and perhaps I Am) were very notable songs. In fact, I've listened to Sorry by itself about eight times in the last two weeks alone.



The lesson, if there is one, is this: don't expect your favorite bands to give you exactly what they gave you before. You might miss out on some good music.



That said, many bands, when they release an album that becomes their "biggest hit ever" do try and duplicate that success. I think that Journey did it (unsuccessfully) - every song they released from Frontiers had a parallel on Escape.



I'm glad I gave this another go.

Customer Review: Solid, quiet and fast

I've had this for a little over a month now, and have been using it in a mirrored RAID configuration. It is currently serving as my TimeMachine backup destination, and as the storage for my media server. It's nice and fast, and quiet enough that it does not distract from watching movies or listening to music. Additionally, it looks quite nice on my bookshelf.



I would recommend this drive to anyone, and will most definitely buy another when this fills up.

Customer Review: Terrific Drive

This is my second My Book drive; I liked my 500G one so much that I had to upgrade to the 2T with RAID and I am very impressed with the performance. Installation is really easy and the drive is fast and reliable. It automatically sleeps if you don't access it for a while and wakes up when you need it so it's energy efficient too. Works fine on all the interfaces but Firewire 800 is obviously the best. No negatives at all.

Self-help Books Are Popular Reading


There are many common mental problems that can plague our every day lives, making us unhappy and sick. Worry, stress, anger, fear, depression, insomnia, self-doubt, nervousness are some of the worse. Since each day lost to these ills cannot be replaced, we ought to be doing something about it.



While we should always consult a medical professional when we have physical or mental problems, there are often many ways that we can help ourselves to a better life.



In the area of self-help there is much to draw upon when looking for ways to improve our lives. Many ideas have been written by great thinkers of the past and best-selling authors of today. Often words written two thousand years ago are more effective than words written today, perhaps because they have withstood the test of time.



These ideas are easy enough to understand, but more difficult to practice. But it just takes practice. A good place to start is the self-help or self-improvement section of your public library or bookstore. If you think that this is an odd place in which to be seen, think again. There are very many big selling self-help titles to choose from. These books are popular reading.



Start with the most popular books on various self-help topics. Reread the better ones, highlight the best phrases, and take notes. Set aside fifteen minutes a day to help make good thinking and happy, satisfied feelings a way of life. It could be the best time investment you ever made.



"All truly wise thoughts have been thought already thousands of times; but to make them truly ours, we must think them over again honestly, till they take root in our personal experience." - Johann von Goethe (1749-1832)

New York Giants - Super Bowl XLII Champions - Commemorative Paperback Book



New York Giants - Super Bowl XLII Champions - Commemorative Paperback Book
Relive the greatest moments of Super Bowl XLII with this beautiful new commemorative book, capturing the action and pageantry of the New England Patriots and New York Giants title clash. It's the perfect addition to your sports library and for display in your home or office. This 128 page softcover book is filled with quality color photography and highlights of the Patriots Undefeated Season. Officially licensed by the NFL.

Customer Review: Great Story and a Poster Too!

The Giants may not have been perfect during the regular season but they were in the playoffs with one exciting win after another, each being more spectacular than the previous one! The Patriots came into the game forgetting the one big rule in most team sports that great defense will always beat a great offense!



The Giants grew as a team during the season and learned from each game. Having lost to Dallas, Green Bay and New England, they made adjustments to compensate for those loses and as rookie players began to shine, the Giants morphed into a team of destiny winning the most exciting Super Bowl ever! A must have for any Giants fan.







The Present



The Present
Customer Review: Difficult to find

I had never heard of this cd, came across it browsing your site. There was fast shipping and the product got here still sealed.

Customer Review: Better than I remembered

3.5 stars



This was a follow-up to their #1 album, Long Distance Voyager, and I think these guys climbed such heights with LDV that they set themselves up to fail on this one. At least, that was my initial impression. If memory serves correctly, I gave this a try a couple of times when it was initially released, and then set it aside and started listening to LDV again.



With the iPod revolution, I've started listening to some of my older music again, and I thought I'd give this another shot. What I discovered was that *I* had been expecting The Moody Blues to produce another LDV, and so was disappointed to get The Present. That was most unfortunate, because while The Present doesn't stand up head-to-head with LDV, there's a lot of worthy music here.



I'll admit, though, that I still found Blue World and Meet Me Halfway lacking and disappointing - bland music that doesn't really go anywhere. I'd always loved Sitting at the Wheel from the first time I heard it, and found that to be the same again. With different lyrics, it might have been a bigger hit for them. What I discovered was that Going Nowhere, It's Cold Outside of Your Heart, and Sorry (and perhaps I Am) were very notable songs. In fact, I've listened to Sorry by itself about eight times in the last two weeks alone.



The lesson, if there is one, is this: don't expect your favorite bands to give you exactly what they gave you before. You might miss out on some good music.



That said, many bands, when they release an album that becomes their "biggest hit ever" do try and duplicate that success. I think that Journey did it (unsuccessfully) - every song they released from Frontiers had a parallel on Escape.



I'm glad I gave this another go.

Internet Sportsbooks - Basics, History and Legal Issues



Online Sportsbook Basics


A sportsbook is a place where gamblers wager on the results of various sports competitions - football, basketball, baseball, soccer, or horse racing. Sports betting is favored by millions of sports fan all over the world. The method of sports betting varies with the type of sport, the game of betting. Internet sports book, like other types of online casinos or virtual casinos, is a derivation of the land-based traditional sportsbook. An Internet sports book provides diverse games or a single one depending on the website operation, franchise, etc. While Internet sportsbooks lack the excitement of face-to-face experience, they can operate much more cost effectively than land-based sportsbooks. They offer other types of online gambling - casino games, blackjack, poker etc.. Among various types of sports, football fans with gambling interests are often busy on NFL football betting lines.


The History


On August 18, 1995 the world's first online casino Internet Casinos, Inc. (ICI) debuted. ICI operated with 18 different casino games and for the first time offering also online access to the National Indian Lottery. In the early days ICI operated out of the Turks and Caicos Islands, outside the United States to avoid government prosecution. In the mid 90's, the Gaming Club and Intertops casino and sports book launched the first online sports book before Internet Casinos, Inc.. Building a reputable service with reliable payouts, high security, efficient customer support, and serving a large number of customers excited with this new gambling modality, the online casino succeeded.


The spring of 1996, The Interactive Gaming & Communications Corp launched an online casino and soon became a publicly traded company listed on NASDAQ. The financial success of this online casino is not only the internet, but also the acceptance of bettors' sports wagers via telephone calls to Antigua on a toll free line via satellite.


General Legal Issues


Sportsbooks face the same legal issues like other types of online casinos. Europe and other countries have more tolerance for online gambling than US government. So most of the online casino companies are located outside of the United States to avoid government prosecution because the United States Federal Appeals Courts has ruled about the Federal Wire Act prohibiting electronic transmission of information for sports betting across state lines, but there is no a specific law prohibiting gambling of any other kind. In fact, several states rule in favor of land-based gambling but having specific laws against online gambling of any kind.


While the internet has no frontiers, gambling seems to be ruled by physical country delimiters-boundaries. Gambling is legal and regulated in Caribbean Nations and most European countries, such as Malta and the United Kingdom from where wide arrays of online casinos operate. However, in America, law says that owning an online casino or gambling related business without getting a license first may result as an illegal act, but if any individual would be willing to get one, there are no states nationwide that are currently granting online gaming licenses.

Aladdin (Disney Special Platinum Edition)



Aladdin (Disney Special Platinum Edition)
Soar away on a magic carpet ride of nonstop thrills and fun in the most spectacular adventure of all time! Now meticulously restored and enhanced -- experience the wonders of ALADDIN like never before, from the Academy Award(R)-winning music (Best Original Song, Best Original Score, 1992) to the unforgettable moments of sidesplitting comedy and soaring adventure. In the heart of an enchanted city, a commoner named Aladdin and his mischievous monkey, Abu, battle to save the free-spirited Princess Jasmine. Aladdin's whole life changes with one rub of a magic lamp as a fun-loving, shape-shifting Genie appears and grants him three wishes, setting him on an incredible journey of discovery. Through his adventures, Aladdin proves that he is a prince where it truly matters most -- on the inside!

Customer Review: Classic Disney Movie

I love Aladdin I first saw it when my brother was very little. I think that you can't go wrong with a Disney Movie. I love this movie and cant tell you how many times I have watched it and still have the excitement of it being the first time I love this tale and the best part is that the color is bright not like the VHS.



Customer Review: The Best

Aladdin is probably the best cartoon movie ever made. It is the story of a young man who tries to win the hand of an Arabian princess with the help of a genie. There are conflicts with an evil vizier who tries to gain the genie's power and destroy Aladdin. Action packed, fast paced, many twists and turns in the plot, fantastic animation (the old fashion kind), great music, romance, and humor. Great characters. Even like the villains. In short, this movie has it all. And strangely, this movie has more heart than the vast majority of so-called Romanic movies. As an adult, I hate to admit it, but this is among my favorite movies. It also makes a great gift for children.

Moon Shoes - Black



Moon Shoes - Black
Moon shoes are the original mini trampolines made for feet so kids can jump with anti-gravity effects. Plus, they help to develop balance and coordination. The wacky Moon Shoes are made of quality, high-density plastic, adjustable nylon straps with sure-footing and nonskid treads. They fit up to size 9 men's shoes and hold a maximum total weight of 180 pounds.

Customer Review: Moon shoes are out of this world, except ...

... if you have two children of different sizes to share the moon shoes, you have to add or subtract sixteen rubber bands, which is time consuming. Also, the dramatic price drop for this product after Christmas is frustrating!!

Customer Review: Indoor fun for the winter

My son got these last Christmas when he was 8. I bought them with the idea that since we are homeschoolers (ie home a lot) in the northern US (ie inside a lot), these would be good for burning off some energy. My son is/was small for his age, so I knew that these would last him for a long time.



Our neighbor has a backyard trampoline and my son is rather proficiant and quite a dare-devil on it. When we got the moon shoes, however, I warned him that these were not the same as a trampoline and that he would not be able to jump and lift his feet out from under himself (as they show in the packaging-- thus the three star rating).



They are good for jumping straight up and down and the quality has been good (I haven't had any trouble putting the bands on).
