We listened to this on a road trip out west and I loved it! The story itself was a great leave from my everyday, but the voices were fantastic! I loved hearing cantankerous 90 (or 93..) year old Jakob tell his tale. If you enjoyed reading this book, I’m sure you will love it more hearing the tale from the two Jakobs. If you haven’t read the book, there is a good chance you will be drawn in by the storytellers and end up loving it. We sat in the car after we arrived home for the last 10 minutes of the book we were so enthralled.
Get this and listen to it!

I received this book within 2 weeks of ordering. It was in perfect shape. I will definately buy from this company again!

What if??? This movie puts a new spin on the life of Napoleon, and what if it is true? This is a must have for anyone interested in History or in a good historical romance.
The Emperor s New
I’m a competitive marathoner and moved up to this from an older model, 201 I think. Anyway, I use the product for long runs, tempo runs, and especially, interval training. My eyesight is fine, but the 305’s worst feature is the extremely small font makes it difficult read, especially when watching rest times, etc. for intervals. Weird, it tracks the pace ok when I’m running but often when I’m standing still it still shows a variable pace. Not overly impressed, will look for something besides a Garmin product next time although there aren’t a lot of choices.
New AMERICAN POWER CONVERSION
Here are my problems with this book:
1) Remove the sex and animal cruelty scenes, and it reads like a script from a bad Disney movie.
2) The main character is shallow and throughout the book I had no idea what made him do the things he did. Why did he join the circus in the first place? Not once did he mention missing his dead parents, his home, school etc. Didn’t he have any memories from his childhood, no worries about the future, no relatives, no friends? You never knew what he was about to do next, because his motives, thoughts and emotions were never dealt with, and that’s probably because the writer had absolutely no idea how to do that properly.
3) I get the feeling that some people liked this book simply because it was so easy to read even Bobo the monkey would get it, since it lacked any depth or complication in the script or the characters. Readers who rate this kind of books with 5 stars have obviously no idea what real literature is.
4) The dialogue was poor, and so blatantly contemporary that it made me angry at the writer’s lazyness of doing her research properly.
5) It was so obvious that the writer was a woman that you could not get it out of your mind even for a minute.
6) I’m no prude, but I’m sure images of the masturbating dwarf will be haunting me for a long time.
7) Trust a good old disaster/great accident to get rid of the bad guys for you. That way you don’t get to kill them yourself and become (gasp!) a bad guy yourself. I would be curious to see how the main character would get out of all that mess if the stampede had not happened. 
If you owned a circus and half a brain, would you hire a 90 year old cripple whith serious health problems who ran away from a nursing home and whom you have just met? Yeah, I didn’t think so.
9) I can’t really recall the sex scenes, which means they we probably not as graphic as some readers suggest, and as for the animal cruelty parts of the novel, yes, they were (theoretically) gruesome but failed t
# NEW Olympus EVOLT
Our carpet had been neglected for a while. We always rented a Rug Doctor and it was becoming quite a hassle to pick it up and return it. Lifting it in and out of our car’s trunk was another hassle we wanted to do away with. I purchased the Hoover F5914-900 after reading the reviews. It was easy to assemble.
This steam cleaner is much smaller & lighter than the Rug Doctor we are used to using, making it easier to push & maneuver around. However, because of the smaller size, we emptied and filled the upper and lower tanks, eight times while cleaning our 12′x 26′ carpet. The clean solution tank holds one gallon of water (one reason for the light weight). The instructions say to fill it with hot tap water and the detergent which is easily measured using the tank’s cap as a measuring cup. The unit itself cleans about a 11-11.5″ wide area and doesn’t clean close enough to the woodwork to suit me. So, I used the stair/upholstery nozzle to clean next to the woodwork and other tight areas. That tool did a good job for us. Hooking it up was a bit confusing and my hubby was worried that he was going to break the clear, recovery tank front panel. It pulls down a little hard, just don’t force it. There is also a powered hand tool that has rotating brushes included with this steam vac. I didn’t feel the need to try out this unit’s Clean Surge feature because I had already pre-treated the bad areas.
Vacuum your carpeting before steam cleaning otherwise you’ll end up clogging the steam cleaner. I pretreated the heavy traffic areas with my Bissell 0801 Oxy GEN2 Multi Purpose Oxygen Boost -32oz which I applied liberally to the carpet and waited 10 minutes before steam cleaning. For stubborn areas, I pre-treat, steam clean, let dry, pre-treat again, steam clean, let dry, then rinse. For normal cleaning, I pre-treat, steam clean, let dry, then rinse. I’m happy with the results. The heavy traffic areas are now the same color as the rest of my carpet. This time I around I used Hoover 4

Low priced HDMI cables doesn’t mean poor video and sound quality. There is a nice article with Cnet that explains the in and outs on HDMI and in there opinion you don’t need a thicker shielded cable unless you are running a cable from one room to another. Basically don’t get over charged for for a HDMI cable you only running in short distances around you entertainment center.

I picked this up not knowing a thing about it except the blurb, so I was pleasantly surprised to find this story of love and betrayal under the big top one of the most engaging tales I’ve read in a long while. I’m not much into romance, but this is so much more than that so I couldn’t pull myself away. As a bonus I learned about the dark side of the circus industry during that era. Gaslighting, where they throw the circus hands off the train in the middle of the night to avoid having to pay them, was a new term to me. Despite the cut-throat world they live in, the young veterinarian protagonist and the circus star he has a crush on, try to rise above it all at risk of life and limb.
What tops it off is the story has one of the most satisfying endings I’ve encountered in a long time. I’ve passed my book along to my mother and it has since gone through the hands of three of my sisters. They all loved it. I’m a big fan.
