Great guide. Now they need to inform the reader that the best kept secret in American colleges is West Point. Did you know that, even though West Point is all FULL scholarships and even though it ranks with Harvard, Yale, and Princeton in all-time Rhodes Scholarships, everyone who really wants to get in has a good chance of it? Here's some free advice. Before you do anything else, find out what West Point is all about. Get a hold of the book "West Point: Character Leadership Education" by Norman Thomas Remick.

This book is full to the brim---a Leprechaun's pot of gold, if you can just catch the Leprechaun! If you like writing contests you will find many here that will appeal to you, and the sooner you get started the better you will do! It is, of course, a given, that often entering writing contests puts one at a disadvantage in some cases, where the prizes are large and professionals are more apt to throw in their shining entries; however, here we have so many with such a variety of prizes that anyone with any ability whatsoever should be able to win in one or more of the contests. The variety of possibilities is an aid, as well; from the short poem or brief essay to the novel, a niche may be found for one's work. The descriptions of the entry requirements are clear and easily understandable, and the closing dates well marked. The helpful hints included are a boon to veteran contesters as well as newbies, and I would suggest a thorough study of these before putting quill to parchment, as it were. I heartily recommend this illustrious collection of contests for all, and it is a welcome entrant into the lists of contests, of which there are all too few at this point in time. Let us hope it becomes an annual directory.

If you're reading this review, you probably have decent access to the Internet. That's an obvious prerequisite to finding this book useful. But it isn't just a list of Web sites. It's a comprehensive guide to using the Internet as a job-hunting tool.

I've found other Complete Idiot's Guides to be concise and practical introductions to their subject. This was no exception.

This book was extremely informative. I was already doing online travel planning, but this book opened up so many new doors to me. My wife and I were amazed and pleased to discover through reading this book that so much of the details and the leg work of planning our honeymoon could be done online. We found out how to connect with other newlyweds and travelers through a message board that the author recommended, and got the inside scoop on everything from restaurants, nightclubs, romantic/secluded spots in our destination, as well as currency exchange info. and travel safety tips. The best thing about the book, though, was the author's offbeat sense of humor and keen eye for topnotch websites. A must read for any do-it-yourself travel planner.

I found this book recommended on Coyote's site, and wondered just what it was that America's foremost prostitutes' orginization would recommend it. No, it's not a guidebook to finding hookers with WEB sites, but it is an excellently organized guide, in the same general format as others in the Complete Idiot's series, to WEB sites for vicarious thrills, sexually related products and accurate, sexually related information of all kinds by a psychologist and his wife, writing more as friendly fellow consumers than as professionals.

I still don't know why Coyote recommends it, though I assume it's because they are in turn rcommended (quite appropriately) as a major source of information on the prostitutes' rights movement and proposals for legalizing or decriminalizing (NOT the same thing) prostitution, but separate chapters cover everything from sexual/medical information sources to sites prviding titilation and more for those interested in things "kinky" of various sorts and gender bendering etc.

Minor disappointment to me is the systematic covering of all the "naughty bits" in all the WEB site photos that occur typically several to a page and illustrate most of the specific textual write-ups in this full length book, but this is minor: this volume is not pornography masquerading as a refrence work; it is a genuine reference to pornography plus very much more that's sexually oriented and to be found on the WEB.

My major hope is that it will be frequently revised and reissued, as any reference to anything WEB-related must be in order to remain usefull, and that the authors plus others involved in producing and distributing it make much money from the project as they so richly (pun intended) diserve -- it's well worth its cost!

A well crafted fishing lure is an intrinsic work of art that is both esthetic and practical. "The Complete Illustrated Directory Of Salmon & Steelhead Flies" is a showcase compendium featuring more than 1800 salmon and steelhead flies, each one superbly illustrated in full color with full dressing provided. Aptly considered the single most definitive and exhaustive encyclopedia of its kind, Chris Mann's beautifully presented and minutely accurate illustrations will appeal to anyone who has ever taken rod and reel in hand for salmon or steelhead. A succinct and descriptive introduction is provided for each individual fly, its creator (when known), and its reputation among the fishing community. Enhanced with an extensive bibliography and three 'user friendly' indexes, "The Complete Illustrated Directory Of Salmon & Steelhead Flies" is the perfect and ideal addition to personal, professional, academic, and community library reference collections.

Parents, teachers and other professionals working with the learning disabled now have a "one-stop sourcebook" to fill their needs.

Also listed are testing centers for diagnosing difficulties. A long list of web sites is included.

The Voyeur Video Guide is a guide to special-interest erotic videos--films that are not hardcore porn but that feature nude men and are usually intended to titillate the viewer. The videos profiled range from non-sexual massage instruction to films that feature erections and masturbation but not hardcore sex. This book is an excellent guide to genres of "softcore" videos that have become popular over the past several years--namely genres which allow appreciation of the nude male form in situations that are not pornographic. These genres include massage, dancing, workouts/bodybuilding, posing, wrestling, hidden cameras, and fantasies--all featuring nude men, of course. Over 200 videos are profiled, and over 100 photos accompany them.
