Participation will save the human race. If anything will, it's participation.

The White Mary
Kira Salak

I love, love, love her prose, but you decide for yourself... an excerpt can be read on the Phenomenal tab. I think the audio version will be spectacular. You can also use the link to the right to check out her website where you'll find many of her brilliant magazine articles and more on her other books!

The Last Lecture
Randy Pausch with Jeffrey Zaslow

I am so sad to say that Randy P passed on today... please click on the link to read more about this superb man. Highly, highly recommended.

Nutrient Flakes
Dr. Marshall

Great source for B vitamins... Please take a moment to consider this. I buy my oils, EFAs and detox products from this company and am beyond impressed. Plus you can call and talk an informed human. It's so retro!! Love it!!!

INDIEspensible
Powell's Books

This was on the last issue and I just can't take off this recommendation. I hope you will consider signing up. These guys are making books beautiful again. Every six weeks you get a specially bond collector's edition book and a box of goodies about the author and their contemporaries.

The Healthiest Meals on Earth
Jonny Bowden

The bold title is a bit of a put off, but... the meals are quite healthy and turns out this guy has a whole series of books you might be interested in... I'm certainly going to check them out after reviewing this one!

Also, to the right is a link to World's Healthiest Foods, which I think everyone should own or at least bookmark the site. Between the two books, I would go with World's Healthiest Foods, but I know some of you struggle with putting meals together, thus I put Bowden's book here!

E3Live SkinCare

My skin has never been better. And the products are completely affordable.

Meet Bill
Bernie Goldmann

Who doesn't love a great redemption story... add a lot of humor and a great cast... viola! A film worth seeing! Loved it!

Until Death Do Us Part
Ingrid Betancourt

I read this when it was first published in one sitting. This is a tremendous woman. The book offers insight into Columbia and into the plight of a woman so dedicated to her country she was willing to die. Amazing. The paperback version is coming out Aug 19th, FYI.

Dan in Real Life
Peter Hedges

Sweet. Clever. Easy. What more could you ask for? This is a film most of us can relate to and laugh at ourselves and our families. I adored it!

Nut Mixes that are so GOOD!
Sahale Snacks

Inspired combinations. Yummy ingredients! A great treat!

The Moon is Disgusting
That 1 Guy

Fun, fun, fun! One of their tunes was on an episode of Weeds-- Buttmachine. It's on the mix below.

John from Cincinnati
David Milch

Extraordinary. This guy--the showrunner, Dave Milch-- can write. He did the Deadwood series, which people loved. This series is beyond genius. You may not know what's going on, but you know what's going on. The amazing thing-- and I love this--is that the show starts to make more amd more sense--and it's so satiating! Like putting together THE perfect bite of food and letting it melt in your mouth. I highly recommend doing the extra features because Milch explains what the show is up to and about. There are two TV shows I am thrilled to have seen during this moment in this life-- this is one of the two. Mixed CD for the person who guesses the other show...

Summer Daydreams
Kevin Kern

Lovely music... pure, simple, relaxing and enchanting...

Last Days of the Lodge
Amos Lee

Amos Lee is perfection.

The Women Who Raised Me
Victoria Rowell

I just got this... what a gem!! A gorgeous memoir!

Sun is Always Brighter
Joshua James

Nice, low key folk sound... See if you enjoy it.
