5 out of 5 stars Delightful!.......2007-03-08

Real life letters from a soldier to his beloved wife and son during World War II, written by two of that soldier's sons. The love and longing are palpable in Lloyd's letters to Irma and David. So many of the humorous, serious and mundane events of a WWII soldiers life are here, along with a look at the war itself and the friendships it created. The book was written with as much love as the original letters.

5 out of 5 stars I couldn't put the book down!.......2002-07-12

I highly recommend this read to anyone interested in WWII or anyone who has experienced it. I'm 32, and I learned a lot about the war that our grandparents didn't like to talk about. The letters that Mr. and Mrs. Lane left behind are true treasures. It was like the letters were being wrote to me. Very romantic, emotional, sad at parts and happy at most. I don't think I've ever read a book so fast, just so I could find out what was happening next. You'll laugh, cry, and WON'T be abole to put it down. This makes a great gift for anyone. I bought one for my grandmother, and she loves it! My grandfather was in the war, and I know she can really relate to it. ENJOY!!

    Book Description

    What's inside? At well over 400 pages, EVERYTHING anyone could ever want to know about steroids and the law! Read the true details of recent anabolic steroid investigations, arrests and prosecutions from all across America. Chapter topics include...

    Ordering steroids via the Internet; mail deliveries and seizure notices; importing steroids at the border; Fourth Amendment privacy protections; automobile stops and searches; Miranda rights; the psychology of police interrogation (the secrets about why the overwhelming majority of suspects [84% in a 1994 survey] waive their Constitutional rights -- a potentially devastating mistake!); teenagers and steroids; soldiers and steroids; and much, much more!

    Twenty-five chapters and four appendices! With detailed accounts of case after case culled from Rick's own extensive steroid files. It's all in here: real world stories about everything from simple personal possession to major trafficking. Discover how anabolics work, what the medical literature really says about them, and how the media have presented "less than the truth." Read how steroids came to become controlled substances (shocking!) and how they are treated today under federal statutes and sentencing guidelines (including the first-ever reference table to apply steroid quantities to the federal guidelines). LEGAL MUSCLE even covers the anabolic laws and sentencing ranges of all fifty states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico - a veritable treasure trove never before available anywhere - not even to lawyers!!!

    Bridging the gap between the legal world and the muscle world, it's mandatory reading for defense lawyers and prosecutors, and for police officers and federal law enforcement agents, judges, and, of course, those who stand accused. Nobody -- absolutely NOBODY-- should be inside a courtroom on an anabolic steroid case without LEGAL MUSCLE!

    5 out of 5 stars STOP! Read This Book First!.......2007-07-06

    I've always been interested in anabolics and never could find good, solid, unbiased information that I wanted on the subject. When I read this book it really answered a lot of my questions. It opened my eyes to the legal part of the matter and how someone can get themselves in a legal mess when you don't know the basics. This book lays it all out where steroids and the law can easily be understood and I really enjoyed it. If you are even thinking about going to a website or local dealer to get your gear, you owe it to yourself to get this book and read it first. Whats 20 or 30 bucks compared to a possible felony charge?

    3 out of 5 stars Get a local lawyer.......2007-04-13

    Steroids are drugs like any other. If you get in trouble, you are far better off with a local lawyer. Rick has made a fortune by catering to this niche, and while this book DOES tell you all the specifics about steroid law, you can find that info for free online. It kills me when people hire this guy, fly him across the country, and expect he can do something that their local lawyer cannot. Rick doesnt even win his cases.

    This book is good for basic info, but it doesnt tell you anything you cant find out on your own, for free, online.

    5 out of 5 stars Your Steroid Reference.......2007-04-10

    If you use anabolic steroids or have been wondering about the steroid controversy, this reference guide and history of the drug will answer all your questions.

    5 out of 5 stars A full spectrum analysis on steroids in America!.......2007-02-09

    I needed this book for a good referrence, and it has proven to be an effective tool for approaching an alternative side of the steroid controversy. Anyone who feels confused about the entire issue, should read this book - and, it's a great buy! This isn't a book that encourages people to use steroids, yet it portrays the unjust circumstances that have victimized cosmetic users of AAS. It also gives very informative medical facts, that have often been distorted by anti-steroid propaganda. The legal advice in this book is astounding, as it was written by an lawyer who specializes in its area. You won't get better unbiased history, legal information, and cited facts than from this book. It packs 3 punches in one!

    5 out of 5 stars You must own this book.......2004-12-09

    If you are interested in steroids at all, especially if you use steroids you should buy this book. It is money well spent.

    A combination cookbook, history lesson, and travelogue, Spirit of the Earth: Native Cooking from Latin America brings to life the traditional foods of the Mayans, Aztecs, and Incas. It shows how recipes from these ancient cultures have been borrowed and transformed through the ages. The Mayan diet was heavy on corn, beans, and chile peppers. Try Pavo en K'ol Indio (Turkey Simmered in Masa-Thickened Broth) with Xni Pec (Roasted Tomato and Chile Salsa). Aztecs prepared most food by steaming, stewing, or roasting. Two of the three come into play with Lomo de Puerco en Cacahuete (Pork Loin in Peanut and Red Chile Sauce). Incas had a wide variety of vegetables and grains in their diet. Quinoa, used in Tamales de Quinoa (Quinoa Tamales with Pork Filling) among other dishes, was considered a sacred food. Spirit of the Earth admirably commemorates these three cultures' contributions to modern cuisine. --Dana Van Nest

    Book Description

    More than half the food eaten around the world originated on the American continents, and the great pre-Columbian cultures of Mexico and Central and South America were the largest contributors. In Spirit of the Earth, award-winning authors Beverly Cox and Martin Jacobs celebrate the rich cuisine of native Latin American cultures through 125 authentic recipes-from the peppery ajis and scrumptious ceviches of Peru and Chile to the honeyed desserts of the Yucat·n Peninsula and the sophisticated moles of Mexico. Includes traditional recipes for familiar items like tortillas, tamales, and guacamole are included, as well as such delicacies as Pompano in Garlic and Chile Sauce, Quinoa and Potato Gratin, and Spicy Peanut Chowder. Recipes for appetizers and snacks, sauces and seasonings, side dishes, main courses, beverages, and desserts follow. A glossary, explanations of basic techniques, and a list of sources for authentic ingredients complete the book.

    This authoritative look at Latin America's rich culinary heritage is destined to become a classic on the subject.

    5 out of 5 stars Authentic, tasty cooking.......2002-12-18

    I purchased this cookbook because of a growing interest in the cooking of Latin America. The authors cover in depth cooking from the regions where the Maya, Aztec, and Inca kingdoms once reigned. Their knowledge of the history and food culture of each region is evident. I have made recipes from all three sections, and although all dishes have come out well, I think that this book's strength is in the recipes from Peru and Chile. Pastel de Choclo (sort of a casserole of beef and corn) and Papas a la Huancaina (potato salad with cheese and chili dressing) were particular standouts. I have tried these recipes from other cookbooks, and this book's versions were the best.

    Some specialty ingredients are needed, but many recipes can be prepared with basic ingredients from the supermarket, and the authors give suggestions for substitutions when possible (which I have sometimes used with successful results). Very helpful instructions are included for preparing some of the ingredients on your own at home.

    Peaceful Kingdom chronicles amazing true stories of devotion and bravery from the animal world. Included are both well-publicized cases, such as the gorilla who tenderly carried an injured child to safety, and the more obscure--the German shepherd who visited the grave of his deceased owner every day at the same hour. Even ants are caught in heroic acts: they're observed pulling a thorn from an injured comrade. The animals in this book are viewed as compassionate, thinking creatures that experience real emotions--hardly news to animal lovers. Peaceful Kingdom also reflects human acts of kindness to animals. Edward Lear, the famous author of "The Owl and the Pussycat," built his new house as an exact replica of his old one to keep from traumatizing his beloved cat. Peaceful Kingdom is an intriguing and heartwarming journey into the lives of some astonishing animals.

    5 out of 5 stars Treasure chest of a book!.......2002-08-10

    I can't believe this book is out of print. Reading it is like opening up a treasure chest and finding one gem after another. Each animal story touched me and opened my eyes and my heart to the world of animals. The stories are short and easy to read, and I found myself having a hard time stopping to take a break sometimes, I kept wanting to hear more stories. A great book to read outloud to your children too, my son was also awed by the stories. I was amazed at how smart and how compassionate animals really are. There are some interesting animal facts included too as side notes. I highly recommend this book!

    5 out of 5 stars Incredible.......2001-06-19

    The first time I read this book I thought it was one of the most wonderful books I ever read. I thought the same thing the second time I read it. I loved every story. And the best part is it doesn't just give you stories about animals and what they've done to people to change their lives, or save them. But it also gives you notes on how to return the kindness. And even stories on how people helped animals. Some of the stuff in this book is almost to hard to belive, but if you think animals are wonderous creatures that deserve the love and respect that all living things want, then you will belive everything in this book. I did. After you read the stories in this book, you'll have a different out look on all creaturs, even ants. All the stories in this book are just wonderful and amazing. My 5th grade teacher read two of the stories in this book to my whole class, after that I looked for the book. And obviously found it. Anybody who loves and cherishes their animals will love this book. Or if you just love animals and want a good read, this book would be a perfect choice.

    5 out of 5 stars Really good.......1999-12-16

    This book is a must-have if you know an animal lover or if you are one yourself. It tells many wonderful stories on animals acting in brave ways to show kindness to people and to other animals. It's very inspirational and it makes you respect animals a lot more.

    5 out of 5 stars An Must-Read for All Animal Lovers!.......1999-03-04

    This book will leave a mark on your heart and your soul. It has always been said that the animal kingdom treats its members with much more kindness than humans do and this book is a testament to the compassion and love that our animal world has for itself and all the rest of us!

    5 out of 5 stars This book will make you smile, laugh, and cry, all at once........1999-02-22

    The stories in this book will make you realize the lessons, gifts, and teachings available from all of God's creatures. This is a book for the simple pet owner to the most avid animal right's activist. No household bookshelf should be without a copy.

        I have owned this book for a few years now and have thoroughly enjoyed sewing some of the patterns. Of course, it is my intent to make all of them, but... I do want to say that the patterns/instructions are thorough and easy to follow. There is always room for creativity. Needless to say, I was very excited to see that there is now another book.

              BABYSITTER- (bAy-B-sit-ter) A child's nightmare. In cartoons and books babysitters are qualified as bossy, uncaring, angry, and maybe even scary. Uh,uh. That is wrong. Maybe some sitters are mean and yell a lot, but those are the ones that haven't read this book. Super Sitters is a book that teaches a sitter to be helpful, caring, fun, and just about everything you can think of. It teaches simple first aid, what to ask the parents the first time you babysit for their kids, and what to do in case of an emergency. Not to mention a lot more stuff you wouldn't even think of. And the BEST part is... NONE OF IT IS JUNK! Everything is very useful so if you are a new sitter- Buy this book if you want to be successful. It has helped me to become a better sitter.

                  Book Description

                  Throughout the twentieth century the technology employed by the petroleum refining industry has been advancing rapidly, yet it has generally escaped study.

                  Whatever the explanation for its scholarly neglect, the advances that have been secured over the century have enabled the producers of petroleum products to meet the ever-increasing demands for their products throughout the world. No other manufactured goods are so universally and so cheaply
                  available.

                  This book concentrates on the technical changes that have been secured in the second half of this century, using as its basis the main petroleum refining process, Fluid Catalytic Cracking. Both technological and economic aspects are examined over the sixty years of the process's history; and, in a
                  novel attempt, related the one to the other: an accomplishment that reveals more about the technology and the economics rather than either engineering or economic analysis would separately. Technology and economics are connected in the real world: in this study they are connected in their
                  exposition.

                  As in conventional economic history, technological improvements are summarized and their sources and consequences determined. In addition, the long-term pattern of costs and profits is displayed; and regular measurements are taken throughout, so that experience can be seen as the continuous
                  unfolding of industrial progress.
