Garmin Approach G5 GPS-enabled Golf Handheld
$499.99
I bought this as an upgrade to the GolfLogix G8, which itself is a very decent piece of equipment. I have been very impressed with it, although a friend has an SG5 and that it outstanding as well. The only minor things I would like to see improved (someday) would be that you have to go through too many screens to get from scoring to the course view and back (why don't they have an icon to go back and forth directly?), and the scoring system that Garmin/GolfLogix has for smartphones is much better. The Approach allows you to keep scores for up to 4 people. The smartphone version allows you to keep stats (fairways hit, greens hit, putts, penalties, sand, etc.), and I would love to see this on the Approach.

All things considered, though, this is a really good golf GPS, and the ability to get measurements to and from any point on the course using the touchscreen is a massive assistance as you plan strategy on how to attack each hole.

Total Recall
$13.98
From Detroit-- Negative Approach rules!...

I have seen the name of this band all over the place for years but for some reason I never heard them. None of my friends ever heard them. It was one of those oddities that exist in any punk rock scene. Well thanks to Amazon, I was able to finally track one of their albums down. IT BLEW ME AWAY! These guys are raw power. Songs like "Nothing" and "Can't Tell No One" are pure angst, anger, and hopelessness. This band should have been so much bigger... If they had been from LA they would have been huge!

This CD is sort of broken down into three sections 1) the old classic stuff! 2) the newer stuff and some remakes 3) some VERY raw live recordings. This CD basically includes all their stuff. It's a very good solid purchase! Do it... DO IT!

A Fresh Approach To Teaching Punctuation
$19.99
Janet Angelillo scores a home run in this stellar teaching resource book that is bound to inspire teachers to discard old-fashioned methods of teaching punctuation (worksheets, skill and drill) in favor of those found in this book. The text is filled with ideas for lessons that will motivate, challenge, and create independent writers who use punctuation--sophisticated punctuation--with ease. Chocked full of ready-to-use mini-lessons that feature a variety of texts for students to examine, they learn how powerful punctuation can be in making the meaning of their writing clear. Angelillo makes it possible for every teacher to put into practice what research and best practices has been saying for a long time: We learn to write and use conventions in the context of real writing, not from worksheets. And best of all, she doesn't just tell you, she shows you how. This is an important book for every writing teacher to read and use with students of all ages.
