Worked great in the beginning! Lost a little weight. However, I did feel my body become immune to them after two weeks. At that point, I needed to take it later in the day (rather than early in the morning like I had been) in order for it to get me through the day with energy.

Used this for yrs to help with sleep problems. Usually get it somewhere else, but was ordering from Amazon and needed to get my $35 for free shipping. So found they had the Calm, and at a very reasonable price. Taking it right before bed not only helps me sleep better but also keeps me regular. Maybe too much information, but it may help someone. :)

Norwex cloths beat all for wiping down my kitchen - greasy stove, built-up gunk on the microwave, crumby counter, grime on cabinets...Just plain water and the cloth does the trick.

The stroller itself is great. Aside from being a little tricky to open and close (but not too difficult), it functions well and fits our needs for an extra lightweight stroller. My main complaint is with the fabric. We bought the stroller in July, used it for a week on a trip in NY, brought it home in August and stored it on the front porch next to our UPPAbaby Cruz (which we love but don't want to fly with). In October (two months later), I went to use it again and noticed the black fabric was now purple because the sun had faded it. Because part of the top cover was collapsed, the color is inconsistent and looks really bad. I am going to contact the company and see if they can replace the fabric on top because it shouldn't have faded this much in such a short period of time (even in LA). Aside from that, the stroller is a high-quality umbrella stroller. I purchased the UPPAbaby travel bag with it and really liked how easy it was to fit into it. The sun shade is nice. There isn't a reclining function, but my baby slept fine in it. If this were to be your everyday stroller, I'd recommend getting the L-Luxe instead. It reclines and appears to have a more substantial basket.

Probably should have ordered 1/2 size larger, but they should loosen up once broken in. I just noted several reviews that said they ran large. Seems to be good quality. Very comfortable shoes.

The book came in quickly, a lot faster than I expected, (especially since we were on Tropical Storm warning, plus I could follow the package through the tracking system), in brand new, still in plastic wrap condition. It arrived by UPS, which is always on time! The book itself is complete, in full color, and easy to use because of the spiral bound spine. I hope to get much use out of it for the class I'm taking. I would recommend anyone to buy from amazon. (I also got the CPT Professional 2012 at the same time and they arrived together.)

I had years of experience using Access in earlier versions and even taught courses, but have done nothing with it in the last 10 or 12 years. Because of that I was recently asked to help out on a large market research project. I quickly ordered this book and found it tremendously helpful for getting back into the program. Obviously, the program has changed a great deal since I last looked at it, but this book is so clearly written it very quickly brings you up to speed when you have a solid understanding of what databases do and the theory behind them. I particularly appreciate that the author avoids the annoying habit found in other books of describing the commands in older versions and then trying to explain the new version of the old command. To me, that is simply a distraction and usually a source of confusion.
