Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (superb compilation: one of the greatest flamenco guitarists) 『Outside of the actual flamenco culture existing in Andalucia ( southern region of Spain ) and the circle of foreign "aficionados" from various places around the world, the name of Nino Ricardo will not be familiar. In all probability, a good number of people reading this review ARE "aficionados" of one degree or the other. Nevertheless, for the benefit of those who happen to be new to flamenco, "Nino Ricardo" ( born Manuel Serrapi Sanchez 1904 and died 1972 in his native city of Sevilla ) was THE flamenco guitarist during the 1950's and 1960's ( of course he was active professionally for a long time preceding that decade ). No young flamenco guitarist, even those belonging to the tight knit and unique gypsy guitar traditions of such "flamenco" towns as Moron de la Frontera and Jerez de la Frontera was immune to the tremendous creative artistry of Ricardo.
Although the pieces included on this excellent compilation certainly are vivid representations of Ricardo's inventive skill, one should bear in mind that he never really was a "concert" flamenco guitarist in the sense of his famous contemporary Sabicas ( the 1st international concert flamenco guitarist ) and the present day phenomenon, Paco de Lucia. Nino Ricardo's real forte was accompanying the "Cante" ( the word refers to flamenco song but the "Cante" in actuality embodies a whole culture and the world view contained therein ). The "meat and potatoes" of flamenco guitar playing has always ( even today ) been accompaniment to the Cante and to a lesser extent the "Baile" ( dancing ). And in playing for the flamenco singers ( "cantaores" ), Ricardo was supreme ( his recordings in the 1960's with Antonio Mairena and El Chocolate are great examples ). As for the "solo" playing on this recording, it is apparent that Ricardo's technique is not flawlessly polished like Sabicas. In fact, it may seem at times somewhat ragged or prone to loss of control. Granting this fact, I have never heard a flamenco guitar with a SOUND as good as his ( this includes Paco de Lucia, who I regard as the greatest flamenco guitarist of all time ). Ricardo's guitar just seeps emotion and the sonority is a perfect blend of sand and satin; both rough and elegant at the same time ( which is an accurate description of the man's personality ). His "tarantas" may have been equaled but never surpassed ( TIERRA MINERA ). Ricardo's "granainas" ( SENTIR DE SACROMONTE ) display harmonies anticipating Paco de Lucia. He virtually"owns"the "serranas" ( eg, SERRANA JUNCAL ). These particular flamenco song/rhythm forms ( representative of various regional styles ) were strong points for Ricardo in addition to his versions of the core gypsy forms of "soleares" and "seguiriyas" ( of course he was most magnificent in these forms when accompanying singers ). Interestingly enough, Nino Ricardo was not super strong in the most complex and characteristic flamenco form, the "bulerias", but his version ( JUNCALES ) is nothing to sneeze at ( and the sound, as mentioned before, is amazing ). From a purely technical perspective, Ricardo's"rasgueado" ( strumming ) is inimitable, his arpeggios innovative and his tremelo ( mandolin-like effect of"streaming"notes ) is to my mind the greatest of any flamenco guitarist, regardless of era. Ricardo's weak technical point would be his picado" ( scale runs ) but that hardly matters when listening to music of such passion and beauty.
As Paco de Lucia has mentioned in interviews, Nino Ricardo and ( later ) Sabicas were his two primary influences. It is fairly easy to see how Sabicas' incredible technique and superb rhythmic sense would have influenced Paco. However, Ricardo's prodigious creativity, sound and general approach; in a word, his "duende", have made an indelible mark on Paco's landmark creations. In that sense, Ricardo's well of creativity lives on in the generations of new flamenco guitarists who have followed Paco de Lucia ( it is interesting to note that in his time, Ricardo, like Paco de Lucia, was criticized by "purists" for extending the frontiers too far and playing too many notes! ) This recording should prove to be an indispensable component of any flamenco aficionado's collection but guitar players or just music lovers in general should consider experiencing Nino Ricardo's majestic music.』

It covers everything from Jordan's journey to winning his first three championships all the way to when he made his comeback to the game of basketball. The best thing about"Above&Beyond"is that it also has everything in between. It tells of all the struggles and triumphs he had after winning his third championship such as when his father died and the good things that happened while he was playing minor league baseball.
Finally, if you're like me and you like basketball highlights the best, it has more than enough of them. The video has highlights from Jordan's all-star games, championships, slam dunk contests, and much more. All the while, Jordan is narrating most of the video and some of the other best known players from the NBA such as Charles Barkley also give their insights about Michael Jordan. Bottom line is if you're a Michael Jordan fan, this is one of the best, if not the best, overall videos that your money could buy. However, it's good for a lot more than highlights. If you've ever wondered why Michael Jordan quit basketball in the first place, what he thought of Magic Johnson's short comeback, or how he liked playing baseball, Jordan himself will tell you about it.』
(Well worth it !) 『Watched it over 6 times already! It documents his first 3-peat, his father's death followed by his baseball period. Most importantly, it shows what it took for Jordan to regain is prominence in the game again - sheer hard work and practice. Truly a lesson in life for anyone - the video's worth it.』
(My Review on the video, Michael Jordan above and beyond.) 『The video was good and action packed. The music was good at times. Good highlights. The video good have been longer but was only 50 minutes. The video covers mostly 1991-1995. Shows some clips from 1988-1990. Covers M.J's Father's death. It is a good movie.』
(This video summarizes the retirement and comeback of Jordan) 『Excellent coverage! This video covers the years leading up to, including, and after the retirement of the World's greatest basketball player, Michael Jordan. Behind-the-scenes footage never before seen, and tremendous highlight reels. A must for a Michael Jordan fan!』 『New to DVD! Seventeen months after Michael retired, he came back with a new challenge-to show himself and the world that he could live up to and even surpass his own awesome legend. Michael speaks about his retirement and his incredible return to the NBA.』 『In the opening five minutes of this documentary two memorable quotes immediately grab your attention. The first comes from an enthusiastic commentator who rhetorically asks, "Whose game is it? Michael Jordan's game." This may have been said in a moment of energetic excitement, but the words ring true. As do the more seasoned and professional articulations of former Phoenix Suns coach Paul Westphal, who after losing to Jordan's Chicago Bulls in the world championship, profoundly states what the world already knew: "No one can stop him." Apparently, the only man who could stop His Airness was Michael himself.
This documentary and personal interview recaps three of the most perplexing, entertaining, overwhelming, courageous, and painful years of Michael Jordan's life. Starting with the culmination of the 1993 season that saw his Bulls win a third straight championship to his much publicized and triumphant comeback in 1995. His first retirement in 1993 came on the heels of a season that had many ups and downs for a pensive Jordan, who began to have doubts about his ability to feel challenged by professional basketball. Jordan's main concern was feeling ambivalent about his gift to play the game that he loved. When his father was tragically murdered, his hand was forced, as he sensationally declared his retirement at the age of 30. Jordan exiled himself from the game as he came to terms, away from the court, with himself and his father's death. He tried his hand at baseball and a spot of acting but soon returned to the game he adored, much to the adulation of his fans and the world of sports. In many ways this is probably one of the most important biographies on Michael Jordan, because it doesn't focus solely on his game or those last-minute triumphs (his clutch shooting, for example, is so identifiable with his style of play that one day "doing a Jordan" may be a universal term recognizing greatness and reliability under pressure). Instead, this is a journey into the heart and soul of an enigmatic icon that has often been misunderstood.--Jeremy Storey』

(A Great Man of Faith) 『In this PBS production, we get an overview of Reverend Graham's life, from his youth as a Fuller Brush salesman to being the most prominent living evangelist in the world. There is also a little history of the evangelical movement in the U.S. from its inception, and some early film clips of Rev. Graham's early crusades that are marvelous, and that also include some of his "team" who have been with him since the beginning, among them George Beverly Shea and Cliff Barrows. This documentary centers on a crusade in Portland, Oregon, where they show the extensive planning, the pre-event rehearsals, the people going door-to-door with announcements, the prayer teams. When one includes the huge choir, and all the technicians, a crusade can involve as many as 30,000 people, all coordinated for one purpose, to lead people to Jesus.
I am sure the producers of this documentary would argue that they were giving us a "balanced portrait," but unfortunately, it is done with the undercurrent of a snobbish attitude, in the words emphasized and in the people they chose to interview. They dwell at length with a certain Charles Templeton, a man who calls himself a "friend" of Graham's but speaks with the tongue of a snake, and thinks Rev. Graham has committed "intellectual suicide" and is preaching an "outdated faith." Written and hosted by Randall Balmer, there is much that made me uncomfortable, with a feeling that those who created this documentary sadly were not familiar with their subject, but rather had a pre-concieved opinion they tried to present.
There is a final ten minute interview with Rev. Graham which is a delight. If you can get past the supercilious tone of this documentary, it is well worth watching, especially for footage of young Billy Graham, tall and angular, preaching his heart out; a charismatic soldier for the Lord, who has become a much loved general in His army. Running time is approximately 1 hour and 46 minutes.』
(Fantastic) 『I wanted to tell you how much I appreciate your work in making movies for families to watch and to show our lost friends. Thank you for not being ashamed and making it easier for me to not be. Please, Please keep it up! God Bless you, Lisa Bochman』
(Intriguing) 『If you think that all evangelists are phonies, then you need to watch this video. Billy Graham is a true believer, a man who never compromised his vision of bringing the gospel to the people. He even told President LBJ that he wanted to see him devote his life to Christ after his presidency: you've got to admire this unwavering belief in Christ. It's no wonder Graham is so influential. This is a wonderful video that brings Billy Graham to life.』 『Billy Graham has supposedly preached to more people than any other man in history. Raised on a dairy farm in North Carolina, he grew up to become the most famous and influential preacher of the 20th century, a friend and confidante to kings and presidents. Through interviews with close friends and associates, vintage and recent footage, and exploration of the historical record, the documentary, although by no means a probing exposé, paints a cogent and reasonably evenhanded portrait of the man born William Franklin Graham. He appears as the end of a long line of American evangelical preachers, from George Whitfield of the first Christian Awakening though the vaudeville antics of Billy Sunday. Graham taught himself preachingworking as a Fuller Brush salesman, giving away the gospel along with the mops and brooms. With the evangelical team he assembled in the 1940s--Cliff Barrows and George Beverly Shea--Graham built a worldwide empire. A revival for 60,000 people in Portland, Oregon, is followed from inception to completion. Graham's politics are explored--H.R. Haldeman speaks about Graham's relationship with President Nixon; Jesse Jackson is candid on Graham and civil rights--and an in-depth interview with Graham follows the documentary, covering everything from his break with the fundamentalism of Bob Jones tohis relationships with powerful media figures.--Laura Mirsky』 『He has preached to more people than anyone else in history. Now go behind the scenes to meet the man himself and witness the power of the graham organization as it mobilizes millions of followers worldwide.

It's been a long, long time since the Indians won the World Series, so it was nice to be taken back to those better days, when Bob Feller was high kicking on the mound and Lou Boudreau covered short on his sore ankles--amd still won MVP.
What a team that was, well balanced between every day players and an excellent pitching staff. Jim Hegan caught, Robinson was at first, Gordon at second, Keltner at third, Mitchell in left, Doby in center, and Kennedy in right. In addition to Feller--Lemon, Bearden, Gromeck, Zoldak, Christopher, and Satchell Paige rounded out the pitching. I know I'm leaving out some, but these were enough to beat the Boston Braves with their "Spahn and Sain and a day of rain."
The only disappointment in the Series was Feller failing to win a game. He was robbed, of course, when the umpire called the runner safe at second on a pick-off play. The runner went on to score the winning run, and Feller lost 1-0. The Indians went back to the Series iin 1954 and Feller didn't make an appearance as the Indians were smasted 4-0 by the New York Giants.
Unfortunately there are only black and white snippets from the 1948 fall classic here, grainy long shots at that. And Jimmy Dudley and Jack Graney, the team's announcers from that era, are missing, alas.
I probably won't live long enough to see the Indians win again, so this is all I can expect--this DVD.』
(Indian fan must have DVD) 『This was a Xmas present for my father who is a huge Indians fan. He really enjoyed the dvd. It primarily discussed the history of the Indians back in the 40's&50's when they won their last world series.』
(The Cheers from Municipal Stadium) 『The archival footage is incredibly sharp and the presentation is in newsreel form from this magical season for player-manager Lou Boudreau and a city that not only embraced the club, but whose fans helped set a number of Major League Baseball attendance records in the cavernous Municipal Stadium.
The club - paced by such legends as Satchel Paige, Larry Doby, Bob Lemon, Bob Feller and Ken Keltner - snatched the American League pennant by winning a "sudden-victory" playoff game with the Boston Red Sox and then defeated the Boston Braves in the World Series.
This is a great stride down memory lane when Bill Veeck ruled the city through his innovative gimmicks to keep baseball on the front pages of the daily newspapers and the team delivered an incredible season on the diamond.
』 『All the glory of the Cleveland Indians 1948 World Series Championship is now digitally preserved on this official DVD.The Cleveland Indians under player-manager (and 1948 American League? MVP) Lou Boudreau had superb hitting, but it was the pitching that led the way. Veterans Bob Feller and Bob Lemon were joined by a pair of unlikely rookies: knuckleballer Gene Bearden, and at 42 years of age, the oldest Major League Baseball rookie ever, Satchel Paige (with his 1,500 Negro League victories).After defeating the Boston Red Sox in a one-game playoff to decide the pennant, the Indians took on the Boston Braves. Over the first four games Cleveland's pitching registered a 0.75 ERA and sparked by the hitting of Larry Doby, the Indians won their first championship since 1920.Bonus Film: In the glistening new Jacobs Field, the 1995 Indians team relied on overwhelming offense and a pitching staff with a league-leading ERA.

Recently, they finally improved the clip that holds the adjustable straps so they don't slip out of position. To address another review: no, they are not for aerobic activity.

Once you determine the correct size for you, Vanity Fair can help you find the perfect bra in just the right fabric and color. Confidence comes from within, and it's easier to feel confident when you know you're wearing a bra that fits and flatters your shape. These simple guidelines below will help you select the size that works best.
Band Measurement Using a measuring tape, take a snug measurement around the rib cage, directly under the bust. If the measurement is an odd number, add 5 inches to determine band size. If the measurement is even, add 6 inches.
Tip:When measuring for band size, place your index finger under the tape measure to allow for body expansion necessary for sitting.
Cup MeasurementUsing a measuring tape, measure around the fullest part of the bust (do not stretch tape tightly). Then, take the difference between this measurement and the band size measurement to determine the cup size.
If the difference is:
1 inch ... you are a cup sizeA
2 inches ... you are a cup sizeB
3 inches ... you are a cup sizeC
4 inches ... you are a cup sizeD
5 inches ... you are a cup sizeDD
6 inches ... you are a cup sizeDDD
Tip:If the band seems too tight, increase one band size and decrease one cup size. If the band seems too large and rides up in the back, decrease one band size and increase one cup size.
Note:The measurement is just a starting point. Different styles fit differently, and each style must be tried on to assure a proper fit. It is best to measure while wearing an underwire bra.

How did it happen that a prostitute loved the Lord enough to harbor His servants at the risk of her own life? Rivers helps her readers take a new look at someone in the "world's oldest profession" and see with admiration someone wise enough to see the impending victory of God and courageous enough to demand a piece of it. The story of Rahab challenges us to put aside our judgement and realize anew that God chooses the least likely to carry out his designs. This is a soulful story that begs everyone to open their hearts enough to hear the voice of Lord, even in a land where He is unknown. If Rahab was unashamed to answer His call, who are we to do otherwise?

(Book 2 Rahab) 『I am committed to read all of the books in this series. I started with Ruth then bought the first two. Book #2, Rahab was a little boring to read compared to Tamar and Ruth. I found the beginning a bit repetitive and too dramatic for me. Could not wait to get to the portion where they march and conquer the land and save Rahab and her family.』
(Unashamed: Rahab) 『The book arrived in a timely manner and in good shape. I did not need to contact the shipper. This was a satisfactory purchase for me and I would purchase again from this provider.』
(happy reader) 『This book was very well written. I was told it was good and it was even better than expected. The study or discussions at the end of the book are insightful and make one think.』

Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Ben 10) 『These were for my four year old grandson. He is a huge Ben 10 fan and he really enjoyed this one. The service was great. Thanks』 『
The Transforming Alien Rocks can be displayed in the Alien Laboratory or on their own. The Aliens are hidden inside a transforming rock that bubbles and dissolves in water to reveal a 1-inch collectible figure.
Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Tiny little figure embedded in a stinky fizzy ball) 『My grandson loved watching the ball dissolve and he likes having the little Ben 10 figures but the figures are too small to do much with (and easy to lose) and the ball, possibly intentionally, smelled alien.
I would buy more if they sold for $.50 apiece but no higher.』
(REVEAL THE HIDDEN FIGURES!) 『The new line of Ben 10 Toys based on the hit Cartoon Network toys is filled with all sorts of variety. One of the more creative toys in the line is the Transforming alien rocks that dissolve in water to reveal a figure hidden inside. Each boxed set comes with two such rocks. This particular set features two of Ben's alter-egos Heatblast and Upgrade.
While the instructions don't specifically categorize this as a bathtub toy, the fragrant scent of the rocks would certainly seem to indicate that this is the intended use. Well whatever the case, my four year old tried it out in the tub and it certainly did make the water more fragrant while taking several minutes for the figure to completely dissolve, revealing the translucent figures inside.
Whether you dissolve them in a bath or maybe just a bowl of water, kids will be filled with anticipation as they watch the rocks fizz and get smaller and smaller to eventually expose their hidden treasure inside. There are five sets in all, covering each of the ten characters than Ben can turn into. This was a lot of fun, particularly for younger kids.

Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Just Too Cute....) 『Arrived early and well packaged. Looks like it is well made but I agree with another reviewer, probably to light to place outside unless it is in a guarded area. Well detailed. I hope my red-skins lovin son-in-law loves it as much as I do.』
(Gnome hopefully brings Bolts luck) 『Gnome arrived as scheduled w/out any damage. It has since travelled as a gift 2 someone else. In hopes of bringing that person and The San Diego Chargers "GOOD LUCK" this coming season!!』

(Denver Broncos Team Gnome) 『Just as pictured. The person who received this gift immediately loved it as well as everyone else who attended the party!』
(success) 『This was purchased as a Christmas gift, and it was a huge success. The receipient loved it and it was a good ending to the holiday season.』 『CHOKING HAZARD: Small parts. Not for children under 8 years. Show off your team pride in your garden or around the house with this officially licensed NFL® garden gnome from Team Beans. The 11.5-in team-colored gnome is hand crafted and hand painted with a raised team logo on the hat.』
Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Careful....) 『The figure is highly detailed. My only caution to buyers is when moving the arms. The way that Jack's jacket is designed, moving the figure's arms places pressure on the plastic joints and care must be used or the arms will break off. The plastic joints are not very strong. I say this from experience, both of Jack's arms broke within the day and I've since superglued them in place......』
(breaks) 『the day i got it both arms fell off』
(Arrrrr Matey...it be Jack Sparrow!) 『This figure does resemble Johnny Depp quite a lot! That Jack Sparrow "look" we all love from the movies is all here in this delightful figurine from Neca. He comes with a base you can stand him on (or stick his feet into, rather, which will make it easier to stand him up) and that base then becomes a piece of a "puzzle" which fits together with other character figure's bases. I do not own any of the other figurines from the movie, but the picture on the back of box illustrates how it all fits together and its really a nice display.
He does come with a hat, a pistol, a rum bottle, and a sword. Please note that these small items are removable and may not be suitable for very small children since they could present a choking hazard. That aside, you could put those loose items away and simply have a nice figure of Jack Sparrow to put up on the shelf or reenact battle scenes with. He stands about 6 inches (or so) tall and has movable arms, legs, and head. His hands are shaped to fit either the pistol or sword...and the rum bottle as well. The tri-cornered hat also fits nicely on his head and does not fall off. Its really quite cute.
I collect movie figurines and find this one to be pretty much top of the line in detail, color, and realism. There are plenty of "Pirates" movie figures out there on the market, but after some research I found this one to be the most practical and best-looking. 』 『Pirates of the Caribbean Dead Man's Chest Series 1 Jack Sparrow Action Figure w/ Pistol, Cultlass, Removeable Hat, Rum Bottle and Base.』

(Really wonderful toy!) 『I love this train set and so does my son.. It is very well made and has many additions to add for future expansion. He plays on it most of the day and it will be a toy to last for years to come. I'm glad we got this one and we intend to buy the extention to it and much more in the future. 』
(Quickly forgotten) 『Of the 400 gifts my two year old nephew got, this one didn't get anymore attention then the rest. He spent more time playing with the packaging than my toy. Why do we feel a need to purchase these material items for such young children? Anyway, after a few days this and the rest of the Thomas gifts became his clear favorite! And it warmed my heart. Which may explain why we do continue to buy these toys.』
