Pictures worth 1,000 blue notes
"Down at Theresa's" puts you visually into the Chicago blues world. PoKempner captures the people who are the music, while the blues plays through their image.

It's like I was there!
A great glimpse of the blues. The pages reverberate with such a depth of feeling you can hear the music. A triumph in every way.

Engineering the Farm: The Social and Ethical Aspects of Agricultural Biotechnology
Published in Hardcover by Island Press (15 June, 2002)
Authors: Britt Bailey and Marc Lappe

Average review score:

Engaging & Informative
When it comes to topics like bioengineering, a lot of people publish theses and dissertations or they rant on in a political diatribe. Bailey is the rare exception who knows what she's talking about and makes it interesting. It's a refreshing surprise to come across a writer who has not only the scholarly credentials to do the work, but has the life experiences to draw upon to bring the points home. This is like reading a good novel except the characters are real, the planet is ours and the facts are astounding. This book will keep you not only informed and educated on the subject but it will entertain you as well. Now that's the kind of book we all enjoy reading.

A terrific follow-up to "Against the Grain"....
"Engineering the Farm" is a must-read for anyone who eats...like "Against the Grain" (Lappe & Bailey's first book on the issue), "Engineering" explores the issue of agricultural biotechnology. In this book, Bailey & Lappe turn to a dozen or so other experts, each of whom provides a unique perspective on the impact of biotechnology on our lives--physical, environmental, social, ethical, and even spiritual effects which are too often ignored. Pick one up (and then pass it along!)

Finding a new nest....
Buying a home can be the most rewarding, yet the most stressful experiences of your life. It is like living between two worlds. You are leaving the safety of one nest and suddenly flying to the next, which you then have to spend time getting all in order.

Joe Breckner is a top producing real estate agent and understands how potential home owners feel. By dividing the details into manageable parts, he helps you understand the searching and financing aspects of buying a home. Marc Robinson has written finance books and has consulted with top Wall Street firms for over 15 years. This is a book written by experts in the field of financing and purchasing. This book will help to encourage a sense of self-confidence in the buying process.

Since most people own at least four homes in their lifetimes, buying a home is going to be an investment of money and time. This booklet will help you answer the following questions:

1. How much home can you afford? 2. How much will closing costs, mortgage insurance, home insurance and monthly upkeep and utilities cost in a new home? 3. Why is buying better than just renting? 4. How do you get a prequalification letter? 5. How do you select the best agent? 6. What do you desire in a new home? 7. Is a targeted search best? 8. What should you know when making a deal? 9. Where do you get loans? What is a title? Why do you need a home inspection?

Now, one thing that might happen when you buy a house. You could put a very nice offer on your dream house, only to find someone else got there first. That just happened to us, so don't worry too much about it. If it happens, remember..."There is always something better!" The house you will find next will be the one you really wanted anyway.

So, before you even think about closing a house deal, open this book and you will be amazed at how much goes into buying a house. After the process it through, you will have a beautiful home you can truly be proud of owning.

Levinson writes!
Anything Joe Breckner sells is worth buying, so if he writes a book I would advise anyone and everyone to go out and buy it without delay.

Great photo reference book
This large well produced book is a great photo reference book on one of the great modern quarterbacks in the game of football. The photos in the book are crisp and vivid (many worth framing). Truly a must have for any serious Brett Favre fan. Would make an excellent addition to any comprehensive personal football library.

This is a biography book.
A sports biography book, in color, of the Green Bay Packers star quarterback, Brett Favre. He leads the team to victory in the 1997 Super Bowl. Very good book for students and teachers in grades 3-6.

To Bust or not to Bust
First let me say this is a worthwhile purchase. Why? It offers a "blow by blow" guide to punching in a non-grappling street fight. Now it is a bit wordy, but if you know how to read in-between the lines you are getting some useful street fighting information. There are some hardcore punching techniques *Hanging punch, read this and practice. There is more to a street fight than connecting your fists against somebody's head. It involves know where to hit and type of punch to use at a given time.

WoW
