This is one of the most wonderful novels I have read in a long time! Filled with wit and emotion, Kathryn Stockett proves to be a powerful story teller who not only entertains but also enlightens her reader about a time period where a woman’s class status and race ultimately defined her role in society and consequently shaped her life experiences. Through the voices of her characters, Stockett demonstrates how the barriers of inequality were especially pronounced for African American women living in Mississippi during the 1960’s. This is an excellant read, and once you begin this novel, it will be hard to put down!

I am probably the most unlikely person to read this book but I finally gave into “peer pressure” from my girlfriends (Note: My girlfriends and I are no “tweens” – we’re all in our late 20’s, married, engaged, working, in grad school, etc. you get the idea. We don’t easily give into illusions). But Ms. Meyer’s Twilight has a unique blend of simplicity, purity and intrigue that is hard to resist. And Edward Cullen – this character deserves a separate review! He is a true resurrection of the “gentleman” of a century or two ago – cultured, sophisticated, loving and caring. The fact that he’s a vampire adds a “bad-boy” element to his personality which makes him hard to resist. I totally understand why some people dismiss the book or even hate it. I used to be one of them (not even having read the book!) but I have to admit – Twilight has bewitched me.

Garmin’s portable friction mount is perfect, simply put. I’ve used it to keep my Nuvi at bay in my wife’s Camry, my Ranger, and my work van. While my wife’s car is used primarily for highway and city travel, my truck and my work van frequently find their way onto pothole-laden back roads, gravel roads, dirt roads and even in construction zones. My truck and van bounce all over the place and this friction mount doesn’t move. The console on my van has numerous slots and open spaces for keeping work related items, and I often place my GPS over one of these holes with only the outer edges of the friction mount touching an actual surface. This doesn’t prevent the mount from doing its job, though. It stays put for the long haul.

It has very solid construction, a locking mechanism to keep your GPS in place and can easily be taken off of your dash or (in the case of my van), the console and tucked out of the way so that potential thieves aren’t tipped off to your possession of a GPS.

I highly recommend this friction mount for the simple fact that it does what it says it will do, and that’s keep your GPS in sight when you need it and out of sight when you don’t.

This digital scale works very well. And the clear glass design looks nicer on the floor of my remodeled bathroom than most other scales I’ve seen. I would recommend this for anyone wanting an accurate, affordable digital scale.
