Datel HOT WIRE Battery for Sony PSP and PSP Slim (Pandora Tool)
This is Datel’s official Hot Wire battery for the Sony PSP and PSP Slim which functions as a Pandora’s Battery (also known as a Jigkick or Tool Battery). This battery will make your PSP boot up from the Memory Stick in Service Mode. A separately available correctly formatted Memory Stick (a Magic Memory Stick) is required for flashing the firmware of your PSP.

As well as the PSP Classic this battery will also fit the PSP Slim but is larger than the Slim battery so you will not be able to fit your battery cover.

This battery takes 3 x standard AAA alkaline cells (supplied) which are inserted in its casing, and will last for approximately 1-2 hours use.

Mind, Body And Spirit - Meditation Tools - Water
Meditation Tools Water is intended to work as a meditation tool kit to relax and sharpen the mind. It opens promisingly with a view of secluded land from a barge, punctuated with the quote: “All memories and expectation exist now… because now is all there is, and only now.” Perspective shifts from what looks like a barge journey through a river, to gushing water, rain falling on water, hazy images gradually becoming focused and the reflections of trees in water.

Then it’s back on the barge, with the impression of you the viewer steering that barge. Indeed if this was a computer game it would probably be more effective in training the mind to meditate. But in isolation, as with the others in this meditation series, images are not enough. The photography would have made evocative cinematography, indeed towards the end there are some stunning images including purple flowers by a riverbank. But what’s missing to make this work is a narrative of some sort, rather than random quotes. –Lorna V

Mind, Body And Spirit - Meditation Tools - Forest
As Meditation Tools–Forest begins, you may think they’ve repackaged Meditation Tools–Sky into a forest by adding a few trees. Featuring the best soundtrack in this series of meditation tools, this journey develops from clouds and the tops of trees, to a deeper forest, to denser foliage, accompanied by intriguing sounds of birds. But whether it’s likely to enhance one’s meditation is debateable.

Unfortunately there isn’t enough to make this so compelling that you wouldn’t stop the video to answer the telephone, get up to make a cup of tea, or go and load the washing machine. If your intention is to learn how to relax this could be beneficial as it will inspire you to go for a walk to the park to be with some real trees instead of staring at them on a TV screen for 45 minutes.

Encouraging meditation–the practice of emptying the mind–through a video format requires a strong focus to keep the viewer hooked and meandering through trees just isn’t enough. –Lorna V

Mind, Body And Spirit - Meditation Tools - Sky
After a few moments of watching images of clouds on the screen, punctuated by spiritual quotations about the importance of now, you might wonder if there is something wrong with the video. Ten, 15 minutes into this meditation video, you might very well consider that there has been a mistake and you ought to send it back… after all, who would make a video consisting of nothing other than clouds? But that’s exactly what Meditation Tools–Sky is.

Though the images are undeniably serene, they would have been better suited to another medium–perhaps wallpaper. The key problem with this format is that it suits neither beginner, nor meditation fans. Beginners hoping for advice on meditation as a way of calming the mind and de-stressing are likely to be bored or frustrated. You might just as well stare out of the window on a sunny day. Or put the TV to better use by watching something educational or entertaining.

Those hoping to sharpen their meditation skills and train themselves to sit still without distractions are also likely to be frustrated because watching the screen does not seem to add anything of value to a pursuit which requires concentration and focus. –Lorna V

Lateralus
The epic scope of Tool’s excellent third album, Lateralus, could well spell a whole new era for metal. To many casual rock fans, frontman Maynard James Keenan is probably better known as the vocalist in the more MTV-friendly A Perfect Circle but it’s indisputably Keenan’s main group–art-metal pioneers Tool–that have reshaped the rock landscape most radically. Operating somewhere beyond the parameters of their closest peers Metallica and Jane’s Addiction, Tool is the sound of metal at its most sprawling, complex, ambitious and progressive. But while the group’s third album–the long-awaited Lateralus–deals with subjects as obtuse at the return of Saturn’s orbit and Keenan’s fascination with the occult works of Aleister Crowley, this is not simply the sound of pompous prog-rock given a Millennial makeover. Why? Mainly because Tool never let the concept swallow the sheer, gigantic scope of this music–from the brooding, dark instrumental passages and explosive rhythmic tension of the eight-minute opener “The Grudge” to the precise, angular mathematic construction of “Schism”. It’s true, Lateralus might be a bit much for the pogo-friendly Blink 182 fan in your life but if there’s any justice in the world, this fantastic work will do for metal what Radiohead’s OK Computer did for indie-rock. The boundaries have fallen and Tool have new horizons in sight. –Louis Pattison

Customer Review: Another amazing Tool release
When I bought Lateralus i had incredibly high expectations for I owned all the other Tool albums and loved every single one of them. Unlike 10,000 days, Undertow and Aenima Lateralus didn’t grab me instantly and i had to listen to it once or twice before i really got into it. Lateralus is a very progressive and complex album so you can expect plenty of time signiature changes and lengthy songs. My favourite songs off the album are the epic Lateralus itself, the combine Parabol-Parabola song(s) and then probably the Grudge but every song on the album is at least very good if not amazing.

I would definatley recommend this album to anyone who is capable of appreciating it.

9/10

Customer Review: Awesome
This ablum is quite possibly the greatest album ever written, in fact no scratch that it is the best. This album has to be listened to from start to finish as all of the songs blend together into what can only be described as a masterpiece. If you play the drums (like me) or you play the bass it will really stand out to you how individually telented each of the mebers of this band are

Customer Review: Disappointed:
I have to say I was very disappointed with the size of this gardening set, its very small. It worked out a very expensive toy indeed, with it being ?15 + delivery charges, its alot cheaper in our local Garden Centre. I am a novice to this internet shopping and I feel quite deflated that I didn’t get a bargain. Otherwise, I hope when it is given as a gift to the 10 year old she will be exceptionally happy. It is a lovely girlie colour of pink. Delivery of the product was exceptionally fast.

Vicarious [DVD]
Customer Review: migth not be too intereting for non fans
This video differs from earlier ones in a way that you have to be a tool fan to realy sit throughout the whole 8 min. I wasn’t a big tool fan, but after seeing ‘Schism’ video my life has never been the same if you know what I mean. It was so artistic and raw it appealed to everyone. ‘Vicarious’ on the contrary didn’t have this effect on me.

On the other hand i praise the work put into making of ‘Vicarious’ ( i advise you to watch documentary first, you’ll see video in a different perspective).

But to cut my story short - i did not like the graphics. And i don’t mind at all that i have no idea what video is all about.

Customer Review: Worth Owning
The music on this dvd is great, another wondering, and joyfully heavy tune from Tool. Shamefully, the CGI video does NOT stand up to the quality of the music. While earlier videos appear to of been created over a long period, taking every part of the songs ups and downs into account,

this new video seems by comparison, a total mis-mash.

Even the people who are on the commentary do not appear to know whats going on in the video. Meanwhile the creators of the older Tool videos appear, but seem apathetic about the new video. Where as the CG guys seem overly joyous.

You cant help but think the whole thing would of looked better if created ANY other way but on a computer.

Buy it at low expense, enjoy the music, and rue the video.

Dyson Mattress Tool
Customer Review: Dyson Mattress Tool
OK, so a vacuum cleaner tool is nothing to get excited about…but this tool is surprisingly useful! I used it to vacuum under the sofa cushions and was amazed at the amount of dust, hair and fluff it picked up!! Oh…and I found a few pound coins, too
Customer Review: Does what it says
I saw this on Amazon and thought why not. We have a Dyson (DC14 Animal), and so an extra attachment to add functionality sounded good. Basically it’s similar to an attachment we already had, but is about 3 times wider. So it sucks up more in less time. When changing the sheets I thought I’d try it out on our matress and protective cover. They appeared cleaner after passing over (but it’s hard to tell with grey/beige), and you could see more dust in the Dyson, so it must have done something!

I wouldn’t say it’s a must have, as you could do the same with the standard accessory (taking much longer). It’s good to see you can get these bits at reasonable prices - and since they fit all Dysons you could lend it to friends/family to use as well.

Seed to Seed: Seed Saving and Growing Techniques for Vegetable Gardeners
Seed to Seed is a complete seed-saving guide that describes specific techniques for saving the seeds of 160 different vegetables. This book contains detailed information about each vegetable, including its botanical classification, flower structure and means of pollination, required population size, isolation distance, techniques for caging or hand-pollination, and also the proper methods for harvesting, drying, cleaning, and storing the seeds. Seed to Seed is widely acknowledged as the best guide available for home gardeners to learn effective ways to produce and store seeds on a small scale. The author has grown seed crops of every vegetable featured in the book, and has thoroughly researched and tested all of the techniques she recommends for the home garden. This newly updated and greatly expanded Second Edition includes additional information about how to start each vegetable from seed, which has turned the book into a complete growing guide. Local knowledge about seed starting techniques for each vegetable has been shared by expert gardeners from seven regions of the United States-Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, Southeast/Gulf Coast, Midwest, Southwest, Central West Coast, and Northwest.

Used Price: $15.65
Customer Review: not thorough enough to be very useful
I don’t know if there’s a better book on the subject of seed saving, but I’ve found this book frustratingly incomplete. There’s certainly a lot of information, but it seems like a lot of really important basics were left out. I would say for a majority of the plants I would like to save seed from this year I can’t figure out from the book whether the plants will cross with other things I’m growing or how far to isolate them if they would. I’m trying to figure out right now, for instance, if tabasco peppers (Capsicum frutescens) will cross with bell peppers and other Capsicum annum. The book has about a half a page of information on C. frutescens, which I think is a lot for such a minor species, but it still fails to give me that most basic information. I’d also like to know how many plants of each type I should grow to maintain adequate genetic diversity. The author mentions the importance of this, and there are a couple plants where numbers are given, but in most cases the reader is left without any numbers. I wish all this kind of information were covered more systematically, maybe with a simple chart or short paragraph at the beginning of each of the 20 plant families covered in the book.
Customer Review: Seeds for your garden
I was informed by a noted gardener this was the best book for those that want to save seeds. I am pleased.
