I bought an 8GB card first for my VIXIA Canon camcorder and it was not nearly enough so going with 2 16GB cards with Transcend was the better option and has worked out great. I have used them many times, delete/rewrite several times and transfer to my Macbook pro several times as well. Only once, I deleted the videos from camcorder but they didn’t clear the space so I formatted the card. No biggie. All good and I recommend this.

Since acquiring my Kindle, I’ve started playing a new game. I download “samples” of all kinds of books. If I can get hooked in the first few chapters, well clearly the author deserves the book sale.

That is exactly what happened with Water for Elephants. Almost immediately I was completely drawn into the story. Ms. Gruen uses an effective framing device for her tale. Nonagenarian Jacob Jankowski is telling his story in flashbacks from his present in a nursing home. And it is the story of his first job out of veterinary school. The year is 1931 and the country is embroiled in the Depression. Tragedy sends Jacob fleeing his orderly life. Without trying to, the young man winds up running away to the circus.

Water for Elephants is a coming of age novel, a buddy tale, a period drama, and a love story. It’s one of those rare novels that seems to captivate almost all readers. I came late to it, but I was as entranced as all those who have raved before me. Gruen’s prose is strong, but it’s her characters and setting that capture the imagination. I haven’t been to a circus in decades, and have no particular interest in that life. But Sara Gruen is a fantastically gifted storyteller, in the most elemental sense of the word. I will be grabbing future novels upon publication. Highly recommended to all who crave a great story!

This EatSmart scale looks and works great! I can step on it over and over, and it will read the same, unlike other scales! I put a pretty cloth under it so it would slide under my counter, otherwise it has very stable non skid rubber “feet”. It weighs in 2 ounce increments, and is very accurate. I love this scale!!!

Just got it and it’s simple, clean, stable, not too heavy and seems to work fine.

I absolutely love this watch. I was a little nervous about buying it after reading some bad reviews but I am soooo glad I bought it. It is true, it takes some time to acquire the satellite signal but I have not experienced a drop in the signal.
The GPS is very accurate. I mapped my route before running and when the watch said I was done… I was done! You can set it to let you know when you reach certain distances. I have mine beep every mile and it helps my runs along. Also, I love breakdown it does, on the computer and the actual watch. Based on your settings it let’s you know what your pace was for each interval, your average heart rate, and your max heart rate. Another plus is that it is very easy to load my runs from my Forerunner 305 to my [...] profile. And based on the information you can plot different parts of your runs against each other.

I must say I just LOVE this watch and you should definitely get one!!!

The connection into my tv became loose and I would lose the picture. After working with it a few times to make the connection, it finally fell apart completely. You get what you pay for.
