Review title: A thought-provoking series of essays Product review: Getting To Where You Are: The Life Of Meditation by Steven Harrison is a compelling examination of the practice of meditation - including its benefits, what it can and cannot help with, and expressions of daily spirituality through the machinations of life itself. A thought-provoking series of essays carrying a transcendental message about what it means to be in touch with oneself and the quest to better understand both the physical and the spiritual realms, Getting To Where You Are is enthusiastically recommended reading for students of spirituality who seek to employ meditation as a means of acquiring all that this ancient practice has to offer them in our modern times.

Review title: Cookbook Product review: I was extremely pleased with all aspects of my purchase of the Absolutely a la Carte cookbook. The dealer was thoughtful, prompt, and provided a product that exceeded my expectations. If the opportunity again arose, I would most certainly purchase from this dealer who obviously values her customers.

Review title: Doesn't work for acne or scars Product review: Sorry to say but I origionally bought for acne and scars, it does not work for either. I would probably work for cuts and scrapes but havent tried for this to say if it worked. The thing i hate about this is it stains clothing and anything else it comes in contact with.

Review title: A kid's review Product review: I got this as a Christmas gift. It worked wonderful. I just LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVED it! My sisters played with it, too, but they didn't bash it up. One day (today) I was charging it and adding some new songs. It said the songs were added, but they weren't!!! It said it was completely charged, but when I turned it on, I truned the volume up and down, I hit the play/pause button a few times, I even tried to flip through the songs, BUT IT JUST STOPPED WORKING!!!!!!!!!!! I am E-mailing Mattel today, this one is a cheap piece of junk. And the string that holds the clippr things FELL OUT!!! I am hoping a get a new, better, WORKING one.
