I took out enough fur to make another dog with this. My dog seems to shed a lot less and his coat looks considerably glossier from removing all the undercoat.

“Purchasing the hard-cover edition of Twilight couldn’t have been easier. Amazon worked like a fairy godmother in having exactly what I needed, at a terrific price, and the “icing on the top” was the super efficient and speedy delivery. My beloved daughter had loaned out her series of books to everyone in the family without a qualm – only feeling badly because she had never been able to find the first book in hard cover. As a giant thank you to her, I purchased this copy for her collection, and to say she was thrilled is a massive understatement. Thanks, Amazon, you are truly Amazing!”

I used this on my girlfriends cat and within about 30 seconds I had a handful of fur. I gets both the undercoat and the top coat. I think it does a better job on the under coat, but regardless it gets a lot of fur. If you press down two hard it will pull out fur if you are not careful, but for the most part it is just an overall great pet brush.

What an awesome book…the characters, the setting, the details…I felt as I was right there every step of the way. Set in the depression a young man’s ivy league education takes him on a tremendous life changing journey to the circus!!! Read this book in a weekend, couldn’t put it down and yearning for more when I finished. Apparently they are now making this book into a movie and it will be interesting to see it on film.

Twilight centers on the developing romance between star-crossed flirters Bella Swan and Edward Cullen. Problem is, Bella and Edward have no chemistry. He’s a 100 year-old vampire. She’s a helpless, self-conscious klutz. They don’t do anything together except look at each other. They have nothing in common–except they’re both virgins–and so they talk about nothing.

Oh, sure, they talk about the weather, music, and their favorite color, but nothing important like what they believe in or their values. These conversations about nothing are fraught with artificial tension and abused facial expressions. There’s a glower, a simper, a chuckle, a smirk, a sigh, a blush after EVERY laborious exchange. It’s meant to be engrossing and edgy, but it’s distracting and silly. Edward the Emo shifts moods from cocky to lustful to angry to protective in the blink of an eye. Bella’s range of emotions exists between expressing embarassment for her clumsiness and awe of Edward’s smooth skin, his sculpted chest, his fiery eyes, etc.

The story is told from Bella’s perspective. She’s your typical upper-middle-class teenager: spoiled, snobbish, and uninteresting. After moving to Forks, Washington, she looks down on her high school classmates because they are nice and emotionally engaged. She acquires friends effortlessly and for no other reason than to have someone to sit with at lunch. Invitations extended to her to go shopping, to go to the beach, and to go to the high school dance she treats with ambivalence if not distaste.

She placates these little people by pretending to enjoy their company, but she is really just biding her time, waiting for love. When Edward enters her life, she drops all pretense.

Edward, as described through the eyes of Bella, is just as one-dimensional and unlikable. He’s brooding, intelligent, good-looking…basically a fantasy realized. Stephenie Meyer spares an editor to overwhelm us with descriptions of Edward with SAT words like “sinuous” and “transluce

I purchased this cart for my wife. It arrived in kit form and I found the instructions fairly easy to follow. The drawings could have been a bit more detailed as to the placement of the holes in the various pieces. But I only had the first two or three pieces reversed before I figured things out. Assembly required only an hour or so.
Having my wife happy with it made it well worth the time and effort.

Well, I do tend to go against the crowd sometimes…. I returned this pedometer last week and thank goodness Amazon refunded my money. It was not accurate for me at all.

I am sure this pedometer is accurate for those folks who (1) walk by themselves, (2) in a very clear area with no obstacles, (3) don’t expect the pedometer to count steps taken while moving around in your house doing chores, (4) don’t have a hyperactive dog or child, or (5) just want their steps counted if they go a certain speed and manage to get x number of steps in at a time. For that, I am sure it is the best, for me, not so much.

I had another pedometer (which fell in the commode and died) and I also used my CAR to measure the mileage I walk with my dog. She is a Jack Russell. She likes to stop, back up, investigate, move forward, etc. I walk her a mile in the morning and in the evening every day. This pedometer consistently undercounted my mileage. I also belly dance. With my other pedometer I was credited for housework, for my dog walking, and for my dance. With this one, not so much. I think my dog confused it, my backwards and forwards movement while vacuuming drove it nuts, and my dance was too much forward and back, up and down movement as well. So, no dice.

From what I am reading now, too late, this one has a 12-step auto-filter that counteracts counting “bounces in a pocket or car”, but “causes the pedometer to undercount during daily movement by about 50% during tests on the waist” according to a third party testing site. And that was my exact experience.

Obviously the tests for this one involved straight line walking on a treadmill and, I am sorry, but that isn’t realistic for me. More power to all you folks who love it, I shall have to go find me a differently designed model that counts ALL my steps.

Not much to say but that it was the best price I could find from a trusted vendor. Shipping was very quick also.
