[...]For those women who understand that the radical feminist dogma is completely irrelevant and out of touch for today's woman.....for those who are sick and tired of the same old negative message about what women cannot do....for those who are worn out with the hysterical "johnny one note" rantings about abortion....for those who understand that feminism could do much more to empower young women if they would teach them to have enough self-respect to say "no".....for those who are embarrased by the rantings of feminist organizations, desperate for fundraising and a cause.....for those who have no desire whatsoever to SINK to the level of equality.....this is the book for you.It is well-written, well-thought out and well-researched. Kate O'Beirne does a masterful job in her columns at National Review and she uses the same witty, pithy, cogent writing style to hammer home her points. Don't listen to the raging feminists who are looking to trash O'Beirne's book -- instead, buy it and REALLY annoy a feminist! | 5 | Feminists are so OLD SCHOOL! | 1,137,196,800 | 01 14, 2006 |

I used them in a cargo trailer to mount motorcycle wheel chocks to the plywood floor so when I don't need the chocks they can be easily removed and the floor remains undisturbed. The only problem I encountered was that while I was trying to screw them into the 3/4 inch plywood floor with a hex socket I twisted the top off the insert. I found that if I inserted a 3/8 bolt into the insert and used a socket, it worked much better than a hex socket and didn't twist the top of the insert off. Make sure you purchase a couple extra inserts because they are fairly soft material and you may damage one if you use a hex socket to screw them into the wood. | 4 | Convienient | 1,366,934,400 | 04 26, 2013 |

That is certainly not the case with Insanely Drawn. It has the perfect blend of plot, suspense, as well as an erotically tender love story. Cade is so sexy, several times I wanted to be Sienna. What a sexy man. I was immediately sucked into the world that Ms. Morgan created for the characters. I don't want to give away any details, but their world became so real I wanted to skip ahead to find out what happened next.I will be watching for anything that Ms. Morgan publishes. If you want something to read that is full of suspense, twists and turns, and sexy love... get this book!I don't think you will be disappointed.

Never mindthat the conclusions of some of your books or series, like theHyperion series, are truly dumb. They sold a bunch of copiesand that's what counts, because you are a genius and the restof the unwashed masses are, well, unwashed.Given that, you figure you could write a couple of books thatmix the Iliad and Sci-Fi that will sell *millions*. So off yougo. You know the elements of novel writing, like pacing, andmixing various threads into a coherent whole, and having acute robot in the story. You come up with a great plot ideathat sort of works if you stick some nonsense about quantumstuff into it at appropriate spots - but you're a genius andyou can write mumbo jumbo with the best of them. And it allgoes swimmingly well. You're going to hook the unwashed sci-fifans good this time and since there's millions of them, you'regoing to make a whack o' cash. You pile on all the great sci-fithemes of the past century for good measure. Some humor, somepathos, and you're done.But still, there's a problem. It's just not *exciting* enough,you know? The mundanes out there want, indeed they need, someexcitement in their lives. What to do, what to do? Well, howabout reaching into the bag of tricks of the great purveyor ofaction and pacing - Hollywood! That old staple where the hero,mortally wounded, just barely manages to switch off the atomicbomb by cutting the red wire (no, the blue wire!) just at the*very last second* works every single time and makes Hollywoodbillions. But let's go one better. How about we do itrepeatedly?And there you have Ilium and, I expect, the eagerly-anticipatedOlympos in a nutshell. Lots of absolutely last secondbreathtaking hero-saves-the-universe action. I can't rememberthe number of times it happened - 4? 5? 6? Plus, and here'sthe great part, you've actually got the unwashed interested inHomer, the Iliad, and all that stuff, which can't be bad,right? Google searches for "Iliad" will go through the roof.I expect it'll continue to get great reviews, win multiplesci-fi awards and most important, earn a ton of cash.

The book is a perfect balance of fantasy mixed with the well known Arthurian Legends. This is one of those books that you just cannot put down once you have started reading it... a true page turner!The main character, Morgan, is easy to relate to and is so much fun to follow due to her sarcastic personality and uncanny ability to get into trouble. What's really awesome is you get so drawn into the book that you feel like you are walking along with Morgan while she is discovering a whole new world and what an amazing world this is! The author's imagination is unbelievably amazing. This whole new world that Morgan discovers is filled with amazing creatures (Fey people) as well as places and things that will get your imagination flowing. I do hope this book is made into a movie some day because it would be an incredible sight!What I love most about this story is that it is not predictable. It WILL keep you guessing the whole time and you will be amazed by the ending! I honestly cannot wait for the next two in the series because I am DYING to know what happens next. This book is a breath of fresh air that will keep you entertained and on the edge of your seat throughout the entire thing!

] | If you are a writer, a prospective writing group leader, or are interested in joining a writing group, do yourself the kindness of buying and reading this book by the founder of the AWA method. I have read many books on writing over the last couple of years, including all of Natalie Goldberg's and If You Want to Write by Brenda Ueland, and have found Schneider to be an unparalelled treasure trove of wisdom, gentleness, and practical advice. She speaks from many years worth of experience with writing, leading writing groups, and helping underpriveleged people find their voices in writing. She is inspirational and is the most trustworthy teacher of writing I've come across so far. She is also a excellent writer and poet herself.In the first section of this wonderful book she gives advice to the writer writing alone, including lucid chapters on dealing with fear and maintaining discipline, and practical advice about exactly how to start and keep on writing-- what to do when you put your pen to the page-- that other books rarely give. In the second section she deals with writing groups, and the ethics of maintaining safety within those groups. Even if you are a solitary writer, this section is enlightening and moving, and if you are a writing group leader, or hope to be one, or are thinking of joining a writing group, this section is invaluable. She also discusses at length writing groups focused on empowering the underpriveleged; I found this information eye-opening and incredibly moving. In the final section she offers scores of writing practice exercises developed through countless writing group sessions. These are exercises relevant to all levels of experience in writing, which can be used for the solitary writer or in a writing group.This book is a must-have for any dedicated writer, and Pat Schneider joins Julia Cameron, Natalie Goldberg, Brenda Ueland, Anne Lamott, Susan G. Wooldridge, Annie Dillard, and Virginia Woolf as an essential and luminous writing guide. | 5 | An Essential Writing Guide | 1,130,112,000 | 10 24, 2005 |

] | My reason for reading this book was that I loved J.K. Rowling 's writing in the Harry Potter books so much that I was eagerly awaiting her next creation. However, when Casual Vacancy was released and I read the description of what the story was about, I couldn't have been less interested. I felt a bit guilty, like I owed the author the benefit of the doubt after having enjoyed her previous 7 books so much. When it became public that this book was actually hers, I determined to read it right away. I had vaguely heard of it previously, and I love the mystery genre. It just felt like a much better fit for me to read as a follow up to Rowling's previous work.I must say that I am not a bit disappointed. The mystery was well organized, and all of the many details were explained in the end. I've read plenty of stories by more seasoned mystery writers that failed to do that much. On top of a solid mystery, the author managed to do a pretty good job of developing the characters, in particular the detective, who felt very much as if he is interesting enough to carry through more stories in the future. I'm not sure if that is the plan, but it has certainly been left open as a viable option. The author was also using the setting and circumstances of the story to say something about celebrity in modern culture. While I appreciate her desire to avoid being too heavy handed on that topic, I feel like she may have erred on the side of touching too lightly, because I never really could tell exactly what it was she was trying to ultimately convey on that topic. In particular, the paparazzi came off as an incongruous blob of negativity without distinction between them, the media or the at large public consumers.Overall, this is a pretty good mystery story, especially for a first attempt at that specific genre. Having read her other work, I'm convinced she can do better still, and I'm looking forward to reading future attempts. | 3 | A good first go at a mystery story | 1,376,092,800 | 08 10, 2013 |

Although I did enjoy the story, particularly the movements through the city of Regensberg, the story did start to drag a bit in the middle. Also, I felt the story arc was too similar to the previous books in the series. I'm hoping that the author gets a bit more creative with the plot line in the next book.

] | I picked these up based on The Wirecutter's exhaustive review of earphones under $30 [[...] and I'm really happy that I did, these stand far above comparable earphones, including Monoprice's much-loved earphones.The sound quality on these things is really great and was the biggest recommendation from the four reviewers who sat down with all the earphones. Surprisingly well rounded with no one tone overriding the rest. The bass is nice, but not booming. The mids and upper tones are all pretty clear. The sound on these is far better a set of earphones under $15 really has the right to be.Build quality leaves a lot to be desired. They're pretty plasticky and the cables to the earphones don't give me a whole lot of confidence about their life. The stereo plug seems like it could hold up, though. The microphone control works fine and the mic is decent.I'll be honest that I go through at least three or four sets of earphones in a year. Either they break, get lost or break and get lost. With my time with these guys already ill-fated, I can overlook the middling build quality and enjoy the fantastic sound quality. And, hey, at $13, I won't be too broken up about buying another set. | 5 | Totally live up to The Wirecutter's recommendations | 1,389,225,600 | 01 9, 2014 |

] | I have struggled with ADD for a very long time. I have known for awhile that I have it, but I had no idea how much of my life it affected. I found the stories of ADD at different ages very helpful, because I found myself in them for each stage of life and the struggles I encountered. Looking back, I realized that I am not defective, I'm just built differently. I have learned new ways to communicate with people, to approach problems, and even how to look back on my life. I found a lot of healing within these pages.I had a lot of pain growing up and thought there was something very wrong with me. This led to many instances of depression, self-esteem issues, suicidal ideation, isolation, anger, and self recrimination. Why couldn't I just get it together? Why was I angry so often? (one story was particularly illuminating--in which the therapist asks the guy WHY he has so much anger and he says it's from many years of built-up frustration. It made so much sense.) Why couldn't I stay motivated in school or work? Why am I so scattered and disorganized?I was born in 1980...ADHD research was still in its infancy, and so my symptoms weren't recognized. I remember one kid that was diagnosed as having it and everybody made fun of him and I was under the impression that it was an excuse. As I got into adulthood, I remember seeing a commercial for adult ADHD that put a name on what I was experiencing, but still tried to deny it was a problem. This has had wide-ranging effects on my life that I didn't even realize. Through this book, I have found that there is no shame in choosing to take medication or seeking out coaching or therapy. I have found a new appreciation for my creative ADHD brain and a way to approach awkward situations with humor so people can understand me better. I have also reached out to many people that I fear I may have alienated in my past or hurt with my impulsive behavior. I have rebuilt many bridges and mended friendships and even my family.This is not a made-up disorder. It's not laziness and cannot just be overcome by sheer willpower. I've tried. I eventually run out of steam and it took so much effort to keep it going for so long that when I ran out of steam, my motivation and willpower to do just about anything went out the window. I'm so grateful to the authors of this book. I found so many answers that I have been looking for for so long. I didn't even realize this was the answer I was searching for, even though it was in front of my face for a very long time.Thank you SO much for the detailed descriptions that explain how ADHD affects ALL areas of life. Thank you also for the case histories that I could relate to and feel like I wasn't alone. Excellent book and VERY highly recommended for sufferers of adult ADHD, or those that choose to be in relationship with someone that has it. | 5 | It's what I've been looking for! | 1,331,769,600 | 03 15, 2012 |

I can't remember what it was, but it was enough for me to pass it by and wish it were cheaper. I then decided to see if it could be found on Amazon (seems like everything can be found on here!). It was cheaper, and with Amazon Prime, I got free shipping. So it was a done deal.I use this for Kashi crunch cereal and Fage yogurt. It works great! It's very handy to toss in my lunchbag for work. Granted, I have a fridge, so don't really need the freezing part on the bottom. But I use it anyway so that I know for sure my dairy stays fresh between home and work.

But I figured since it was only a couple bucks, that I might as well give it a shot. It took a little getting used to just because I'm used to a smoother feel from regular keys on a keyboard. I type by feel, so I rely on my fingers to lead the way. But I adjusted to this rather quickly. My fingers didn't really catch on it or move it around. Most of the time, I forget that it's even on there. At quick glance, you can't really tell it's on there because the keys are black and the surrounding silicone is clear. So the light from around the keys shines through the silicone. I'm glad I got it. I love it. | 5 | Pleasantly surprised | 1,337,472,000 | 05 20, 2012 |

There wasn't a single speck of dust floating around and once I wiped off my screen with the included cloth, I watched my screen for a few seconds to see if anything landed--nothing. I began to place it from top down, but had trouble getting it to align parallel to the sides. So I started from one side, carefully watching that the film lined up with the camera and home button.Perfectly aligned, it appears as if there is no protector on my phone when just glancing at it. I have to look for the edges of it to see that it's there. The beautiful retina display shines through clearly and I'm thoroughly enjoying my upgrade to 5s from 4. It is a truly beautiful phone and this film protector from Tech Armor doesn't detract from that at all. I love that I have two back-ups in case something happens to the first one.As great as Zagg protectors are, they are pricey and I scratched one pretty much the first day I got it for my 4 when I dropped my phone face first on some gravel at a concert. I didn't have two back-ups on hand for that one and didn't feel like going out to get a replacement. Not to mention that particular protector had no guarantee whatsoever.I'm pleased with this purchase. I'd buy again in a heartbeat. | 5 | Easy to place, beautiful - allows retina display to shine! | 1,390,867,200 | 01 28, 2014 |

] | First of all, I bought mine from ADream27. I say that because I see people having trouble with their cases not fitting. I bought the turquoise and purple case. Mine appears to be the genuine item, as it fits my 5s like a glove.I love this case. It's low profile and doesn't add much weight or volume to the phone. When I'm using the phone with this case on, it feels pretty darn close to having the bare phone in my hands. I just put the case on yesterday, so I can't speak for long term durability, unfortunately. But it seems like it'll do a great job protecting my phone.I like that it has a slight raised edge along the front to keep the phone face from directly touching a flat surface I put it on. It has three oval openings along the bottom that allow great access to the speakers, headphone port, and lightning port. I can't speak for how an adapter fits because I don't have one.My only gripe is that the wake/sleep button and volume buttons are a bit harder to push. It takes more pressure in just the right spot to get it done. I think Belkin could've made the case a bit more flexible there. The silence toggle is completely open, so very easy to flip on and off. I like that it's surrounded by a raised area of case, so can't be easily flipped on/off by objects around it.I'd definitely recommend this case. I love that it adds a bit of color and individuality to my phone without detracting from Apple's beautiful original design. | 5 | Adds color/style without detracting from the original beauty | 1,390,867,200 | 01 28, 2014 |

Griping about this book is a little like complaining about the 2d volume of Lord of the Rings. I love all of Sterling's work, and this book is on par with his best. Good character development, incredible backstory, great action (the "buffalo herd escape scene" has got to establish some kind of literary landmark), and plenty of suspense. It does end with a bit of a cliff-hanger, but that is Sterling's trademark, and it generates the kind of anticipation/frustration that makes you latch onto the next book with great glee and anticipation.The ultimate suspense in this series, and in his "Nantucket Island in the Bronze-Age" series, is finding out how they fit together, what the overall cause is, etc. If it is anything like Sterling's take on E.R. Burroughs' Mars/Venus series, it's gonna be good.So, buy this book. Read the whole series. Read everything this author has written. I guarantee you won't regret it.Signed, Lt. Col.

It is fun to watch generals, armies and empires rise in fantasy lands, but I get a little more joy in seeing it happen on earth, in "real" terrain. The authors here have moved a little bit away from just the tactical, blood and guts of war (although there is PLENTY of that) and have tried to look at the grand strategy and the operational level of war, in a geographic and historical environment that we all know. This is a bold move, and I think I see where the series is headed (the term "oblique approach" is a real clue) and am very intrigued and excited. There are those who say, "It is just another general backed by a computer," and this is true, perhaps, but THIS general is opposed by an equal if not greater force, complete with its own "computer" and to win he will have to use grand strategy and operational art.Those readers out for blood and guts will get it in this book, but the authors are really trying to do something a little bit more cognitive here and to my mind, it works. I have been a paratrooper sergeant, an Army Ranger, a infantry company commander, a battalion commander, a West Point Psychology Professor and a Professor of Military Science.

The "greed is good" guys rightfully scare the daylights out of most of us, and to see someone functioning with an obvious level of integrity makes the book almost like having your dad or mom, (who just happens to be one of the leading experts in investing) available to give you advice on how to get rich without selling your soul. | 5 | As Good as it Gets for Someone Like Me | 956,793,600 | 04 27, 2000 |

] | I am Lt. Col. Dave Grossman, author of the Book "On Killing." I train and speak to law enforcement, military, and medical personel world-wide. The information in "Deadly Force Encounters" has become one of the cornerstones of my presentations, and I recommend the book strongly to everyone I train. In particular, the information (based on Dr. Artwohl's groundbreaking research) on perceptual distortions in combat provides vital, revolutionaly new insight into what happens to people in combat. This book is an absolute must for ANYONE who wants to understand the reality of combat, in law enforcement or military, in history or in their personal future. The book will be extremely useful to individuals after a deadly force encounter, but its greatest value is to prepare those who will have to face combat. Like a bulletproof vest, the mental preparation that this book can provide is best when in it is put in place BEFORE the bullets fly, thereby, enevitibly, undoubtedly, saving lives. | 5 | A vital book for anyone who wants to understand combat | 923,616,000 | 04 9, 1999 |

] | This book had a powerful impact on me, and in my life.This is not an anti-war book. Nor is it pro-war. (There is valuable material here for BOTH sides in that debate.) It really is about THINKING about war. When war is needed. What the price may be.With powerful poems - beautifully crafted words, written from the heart- the author leads you thru the process of thinking about war, using his personal story, as recorded in these poems, and it is ... inspiring and empowering.If you are a veteran, or if you love a veteran; if you are suffering from PTSD, or if you love someone who is suffering; if you just love great poetry and well crafted words; or if you love to see God at work in the life of one man; then, in all these cases, this book is for you.Most of all, this book is a story of one man's journey home, from a dark and tragic place. A path that has been pioneered and mapped by one man, to guide the way for others.From whatever dark path you or your loved ones may may have traveled, from whatever dark place you or they have visited, have no doubt that there can be a way Home.As a woodsman may blaze a trail to guide others through raw wilderness; as hilltop beacon fires can guide a path home through darkest night; so too can these words guide a way home from war. | 5 | Think About War... | 1,294,272,000 | 01 6, 2011 |

I had the priviledge of reading an advance copy of this book, and I have already woven some of the clever stories in this book into MY fiction work. There simply has not been a better cookbook in years, and yet this is far more than a cookbook. With its wise, gentle, sweet love of nature and nature's creatures woven into every page, this book will change the way you view nature... and cooking. This is THE gift for outdoorsmen, nature lovers, and anyone who spends time in the wild. It is also perfect for the chef in your life who wants to explore entirely new, delightful realms of culinary adventure. | 5 | The BEST cookbook in YEARS | 1,065,225,600 | 10 4, 2003 |

Very readable, with military, law enforcement, competitive, and hunting examples for every one of the many, many things that they teach.I have never seen such a thorough, comprehensive, all encompasing guide to a warrior mindset and lifestyle. I intend to buy copies of this book for many of my friends and relatives, and I will give this book my HIGHEST recommendation to one-and-all.If you care about them, then buy this book for every hunter, for every competitive or sport shooter, and for every soldier or marine that you know.

] | "Up Close and Personal: The Reality of Close-Quarter Fighting in World War II" by David Lee is one of the best, and most informative books I have read in a very long time.For students of close combat, and combat training, this book is absolutely vital. For fans of WWII it is the most important book this year. For those who value personal combat narratives, this is an jam-packed gem of a book.The author's key contribution is to demonstrate (with powerful first person narratives) the various firing rates of units in WWII, and to demonstrate the advantage of the kind of training (ie, modern style conditioning) that British Commando and American Ranger units recieved.A must have for the library of any student of combat, any law enforcement trainer, or anyone in the military today. | 5 | A Major Contribution to the Field! | 1,149,292,800 | 06 3, 2006 |

] | This is the "right stuff" from two great warriors and martial artists, who focus their skills and credentials, like a laser beam, on an important topic that has not been well covered before.These two authors are decorated combat veterans with a lifetime of extensive, daily action, as only career police officers can know.Mark Mireles is a two-time recipient of the LAPD Medal of Honor. And in Loren Christensen's case, his career as a highly decorated cop is combined with his combat experience as an MP in Vietnam. You cannot overstate the day-to-day real-world action that cops experience for an entire career, as they wrestle drunks and confront aggression, year-after-year on the "mean streets." This is combined with two lifetimes of experience in competitive martial arts.This tremendous credibility and credentials for the "real world," focused in one area (trips, sweeps and throws) really comes out in the book. One reviewer listed himself as a "martial artist" from New Zealand (a wonderful land well known for sheep and butter, but not particularly noted for its street violence!) and concluded that this book wouldn't work in the "real world." Such a comment from such an obvious dilettante is as good as a rave review from a real warrior!This book is dynamite, and we should look for more from these authors, applying these skills, and this format, to other areas.

This series should be studied by aspiring writers. When the hero is gut-punched, it is more visceral than battle scenes in most books. Amazing work. My only gripe is that it is taking so long to get these into print for those of us who enjoy "real" paper-bound versions of our books. | 5 | Amazing writing... | 1,385,251,200 | 11 24, 2013 |

For brief moments I might feel like it is leaning toward "soap opera" but then I realize that these characters have "gotten under my skin" and into my head in a very effective way.We are at the dawn of a new golden age of sci-fi, as books can go straight from author to reader via e-book, and amazon ratings help you to find the good stuff.
