 | NIKON D70 Digital SLR Camera -- Body Only ( Lens Required ) | |
 | "Excellent Camera ... but very bulky!" | 2005-09-07 |
| Many of my best shots have been with this camera and I find it fast when taking consecutive photos. Colors are average while manual functions are tedious.. This camera is quite bulky for travelling but gives you good shots. I recommend having a professional SLR camera together with a compact camera like FUJI F10. The colors and clarity of the pictures of the 6 MP FUJI are superb to the Nikon D70, not to mention the feather weight of it. | ||
 | The Abs Diet: The Six-Week Plan to Flatten Your Stomach and Keep You Lean for Life | |
 | "The 1st diet book I have read fully & truly loved" | 2005-02-19 |
| Strong Points of the Book (+): 1- Quick healthy recipes (I especially loved the smoothies). 2- Explanations of scientific terms (cholestrol, Blood Pressure's HDL & why an increase in muscles leads to a decrease in weight). 3- Success Stories of people who followed the diet. 4- Workout schedule (easy & time saving) includes 52 abs workouts targeting all ab muscles + other lower & upper body workouts. 5- Iconic overview of the 12 Power Food Groups and their benefits. Weak Points of the Book (-): 1- Overemphasizing the benefits of the abs diet (let the diet speak for itself). 2- Negatively criticising other diets (Including The Zone, Atkins, South Beach). These diets have worked for many over the long term. No need to put those down to play up the good features of the Abs Diet. 3- Repetition of the benefits of the 12 Power foods listed in the book. A chapter in the book gives a summary of the Power Foods & another gives a full explanation of the benefits of those food groups, which could have been put together in one chapter. Redundancy is not recommended. Overall verdict: A wonderful book with scientific evidence to support the information & facts listed in the book, plus the credibility of the author's experience who happens to run Men's Health and work in it for the past 10 years. | ||

| "A Wonderful Historical Romance Expedition" | 2004-11-26 |
| I loved this book just as I did all of Mc Naught's books. The story, characters, description of scenes, scenery & emotions expand your imagination to the extent that you feel you're in a movie. It so happens that when events reach a crescendo in this book, you feel compelled to read more to know what happens next (which in turn will take a few EXTRA hours). Furthermore, the character of Royce in the book happens to be the ancestor of the lead character in "Whitney My Love". I truly recommend this book for enjoyment, increasing vocabulary & a bit of knowledge on medieval history. | ||

| "Touching Historical Romance" | 2004-11-26 |
| A tender romantic novel. The female characters in Judith McNaught's books are very attached to their family or clan. That's usually where trouble occurs & the story takes an unwelcome turn. As for the male character, they're all strong, intelligent, proud & wanted. A conclusion I've reached after reading 3 of the author's books. The books wrap up with the mention of the book's title making it an intelligent endeavour on Judith's behalf to keep the book in your memory. | ||

| "The Best Romantic Novel I have ever read" | 2004-09-03 |
| I highly recommend this book for those interested in reality based romance. The characters in the book, emotions, locations, language have all been very well employed in the book. It seems as though you're watching a movie when reading. I was in so much suspense to know the ending that I couldn't wait but flip over to the last page to read it. Gaining that satisfaction made me continue reading with more enthusiasm. | ||

| "Romance & Fantasy" | 2004-09-03 |
| My 1st romance novel in years & already I was hooked. Well written, fantasy filled & humorous at times, I couldn't put this book down. The characters are very reality based (especially the character of Pippa) & the book is very descriptive giving your imagination a boost. An uplifting book that leaves with a great feeling. | ||
 | Lotte Berk Method for Beginners | |
| "Seeking something new? This is the workout for you" | 2004-08-15 |
| This workout is a 4-disc set. I've tried them all and especially loved the butt/abs workout. The exercises are about 25 minutes long including stretching & warmup. An advanced option is available on each disc if you're done with the workout & still want to challenge yourself in addition to a preview for the other workouts. 1st time users will feel a burn for a few days, yet, the more its practiced, the more monotonous it will become. I would recommend this workout once weekly in addition to strength + cardio training. | ||
 | 8 Minute Abs & Arms | |
| "A perfect time-saving workout" | 2003-09-21 |
| I read loads of fitness magazines & each month they come up with some new excercises that are more time-saving, but this DVD, I found absolutely the best in helping me keep up with my fitness schedule. I've kept it up for 3 weeks & now I'm in my 4th week & still going... Truly a workout for everyone!!! And its tough if you don't pause between workouts | ||
 | 8 Minute Buns & Legs | |
| "A workout that BURNSSSSS!" | 2003-09-20 |
| This workout REALLY BURNS... Even after 3 weeks use, I pant & sweat as soon as I finish the workout. I dread putting the DVD into the player because I know I'll pause every now and then & consume lots of energy.... Yet, I recommend it and raise two thumbs up for this DVD! Very time convenient!! | ||
