The Defender is a great product and offers a much higher level of protection than any other case I’ve seen, but it’s not foolproof. I have probably dropped my iphone about 20 times since got it in Nov. However, on Christmas eve I had it laying in my lap and stood up. My iphone dropped to the tile floor and when I picked it up the LCD screen was white with blue and red lines running the length of the screen on the right side. I took it to a repair shop and had to have the screen replaced. I too have the oil slick issue but its not a big deal to me. The biggest problem is the reason that I have dropped it so much is that every time I have it in the belt clip and happen to bump the belt clip even with my arm or hand the phone will fall out of the clip. Since the screen replacement and the belt clip issue I just carry it in my pocket. I work construction and have pretty much ruined or broken every phone I’ve had, but thought that this case would maybe help this one survive. Sorry folks but the jury is still out.

I just finished Water for Elephants for the the 3rd time and it truly gets better every time I read it. The book is full of rich characters and a fast paced, exciting, heart-felt, amazing story line. I could not put it down, each time I read it, and would honestly pick it back up and read it again. Water for Elephants is quite possibly the best book I have ever read and I would highly recommend it!

Reading this book for the first time in my 40’s has reminded me how strong the sense of insecurity and how potentially wide the gap between innocence and growing up can seem to be to a young person. The protagonist is a misfit, is at the brink of his adulthood, senses he is about to lose something unique as he leaves his childhood world for good but is not sure what and flails wildly in his attempt to grasp what life is about. I started off disliking the book: the language, the events happening to him, his reactions to those events. But before I reached half-way through the book, I felt sorry for the boy, who came across as sensitive and scared. Three-quarter of the book, I worried for him and wondered if there’s light at the end of his tunnel. By the time I finished reading the book, I thought it a tale told by an idiot, full of sound of fury. Of course it does not compare with Macbeth or Hamlet, but it is none the less a tragically realistic story, touchingly told by an honest and eloquent idiot. (It does remind me of Mark Haddon’s THE CURIOUS INCIDENT OF THE DOG IN THE NIGHT-TIME, except the ailment here is depression and not autism. So if you like THE CURIOUS INCIDENT, you will probably like THE CATCHER.)

I think it is a good story told by a good story-teller. It is both a period piece and timeless: Deciphering the American slangs in vogue during that time period has slowed down my reading quite a bit, yet the story is one that can, and probably does, happen in any country through out history. It is an interesting read only if the reader will not be depressed by narratives from a troubled mind.

You dont get one with a 55-200 VR lens.. you might want to get one. This is what you buy and it is perfect. No problems, high quality OEM Nikon.

We bought this for our Bulldog/Boxer and it works better than we expected. Would recommend to anyone with a shedding type pet. The price we got this for on Amazon was incredible. They are 75.00 Canadian and we paid 26.00 US!!!!!

I really want to like this series. I have been watching Anime for about 15 years now and I have been playing EverQuest for 3 years. The production of .hack//Sign is top notch, and I like the story. However I tend to look too deeply into things, and my biggest beef whis this is the characters in this do not move and react like MMORPG characters. Granted, if they did it would be a REALLY boring show. I have kind of resolved it in my mind that is kind of like the Apollo 13 movie.. the events that actually happened, while exciting, would be [bad] to watch because there was no real “production”, where the movie of Apollo 13 told the story of the events with dramatic license. That makes me look at this anime as “dramatic retelling” of the events, that way you can have characters sitting on a wall talking, or showing facial expression. But overall, I like the story

I purchased this watch and loved it. It lasted about a year. It stopped working for no reason. I sent it back along with the cradle. I had no idea which part was broken. They charged my credit card a nominal fee to replace the watch with a new or refurbished unit. They only sent back the watch. When I contacted them to ask for the cradle, they said:
**Do not ship anything but the base unit. Any accessories, cables or
other items you are not specifically instructed to send in will not be
replaced.**
So, they kept the cradle and wouldn’t send it back. I did not know that the cradle was an accessory. I did not want any item to be replaced that wasn’t broken, but I did expect to get my belongings back. In fact, it had been referred to as the base of the unit by the customer support person. It does not recharge without it. I was very disappointed in the customer service. I have purchased a new cradle. But, I am soured to the company. They essentially stole the item and I cannot figure out why they would bother.

I am new to the running world, but I like to track my activities and this is perfect. Out of the box easy. No more driving around town after a new route, just plug it in and upload. Has a lot of features that I have to learn. The watch is big, but it fits on my small wrist perfectly.

I loved how this story switched between the past and the present. I haven’t read a book like that in awhile, so I was really happy for something different…a little break from the norm. I couldn’t put this book down, and now heard it is being made into a movie. Woo hoo!

Got the Wii to get Wii Fit for days when I can’t do my normal exercise routine. So far so good. Don’t know if I’ll ever play any other games, but enjoy using the Wii Fit.
