I am dreaming of maple syrup.......2007-10-08
I just finished a 30 plus day cleanse. All I had was a brew of maple syrup, lemon juice, cayenne pepper, and water. The hardest part of the cleanse was not hunger. What I found hardest was the monotony of the above mentioned beverage. For the first 10 days it tasted fine. For the next 10 days it tasted less fine. For the 10 days after that it tasted horrible.
Why did I do the cleanse in the first place? I have bladder cancer. And as anybody knows who has cancer, there is no shortage of suggestions about how to cure cancer. Suggestions come from friends, family members, casual acquaintances, and even total strangers who overhear conversations. The suggestions range from the helpfully obvious, such as, "You should probably not make Doritos the mainstay of your diet," to the near cruel, "If you loved yourself more, you would be cured."
Now, before I continue, I want anyone who has read this far to know that I posted this review in my blog also. One of the reasons I am writing reviews is because it was suggested as a good way to market my book, "Letters to My Friends: A No Guarantees Guide to Awakening." I want to make every keystroke, so to speak, count. One thing I have learned from cancer is to make each move count. There may be no tomorrow. Also, I believe in full disclosure.
Anyway, like many people with cancer, I tend not to talk about it because I get tired of the suggestions. But two friends of mine repeatedly suggested this cleanse. They are both advocates of alternative healing. And, even though I find myself excusing myself to run urgent errands whenever they talk about my eating habits, I love and respect them both.
What sold me on the cleanse was what one of my friends said. We were driving in the car in the mountains near her home, chatting about this and that. Suddenly the tone of her voice changed, and I knew I would hear something about a healthy lifestyle. "That cleanse we were talking about the other day, your body will begin to digest itself, and the theory is that the cancer cells will be digested, literally."
She had me. I am not a scientist. But that made sense. I had pretty much decided that Bill must die, Bill being the cancer. So, off I went on the cleanse, pretty much feeling like an old-west, quasi-Buddhist gunslinger. My body wasn't big enough for me and the cancer. One of us had to go. Either I would starve or the cancer would starve. By day 20, people were really beginning to be impressed. By day 30, I was being deified. But, honestly, it wasn't that hard. I'm sure that those fellows who climbed that little mountain felt the same way. Mt Everest, I think it was.
I had been aiming for 40 days, but I quit on day 33. And the reason I quit was because I found my 40-day goal becoming a little bit of an obsession. To quit, believe it or not, took much more will than to continue. As I said, I am a quasi-Buddhist, if there is such a thing, and I practice relinquishing strong attachments. I am, as a rule, much happier when I am not ruled by my attachments. And the cleanse was quickly becoming my master. I was no longer doing the cleanse; it was doing me.
You can find many variations of The Master Cleanse, usually for sale, on the internet. My own advice is to listen to your body. Do not get stubborn. On the other hand, the first three days really is the hardest; although, day 29 was hard too. The key is to drink plenty of lemonade, as it is called, because it will keep you from getting hungry. If you're worried about doing something so drastic, then see your doctor. But do not be surprised if your doctor looks at you as though you are a new age, hippie, weirdo when you mention The Master Cleanse. When I investigated this cleanse on the internet, I found only negative comments about it from the medical establishment.
But, as my mother used to say, "The proof is in the pudding." Is the cancer gone? I do not know. Nor, will I until my next exam. But I know I lost weight, a lot of weight. And I know I have more energy than I have had in a long, long time. I feel great. I'm planning on doing it again soon. But first I need to implement a healthy diet of vegetables, fruits, nuts, and Doritos. And for some reason I want some pudding. Maybe chocolate pudding. Or maybe custard. How about rice pudding?
Blessings,
John C. Conley

Great health book.......2007-10-01
I felt great putting this into practice but I was still hungry. However, I did notice I had a lot more energy. The lemonade tastes awesome.
The Master Cleanser.......2007-09-11
The Master Cleanser Diet information is an excellent source for promotion of good health and feeling good. I highly recommend this boook to everyone.The diet is simple and easy to follow.
Great results.......2007-09-10
I've been on this program for over a week now and feel great! Not to mention that I've lost a lot of weight, althoug that could only be temporary... My skin seems to be smoother and I have the great feeling of being light and well. I must say that it can be difficult to stay on the program and it requires a lot of will power.
I do like the taste of cayenne pepper in my drinks. It makes them more pleasant to swallow ... If you know someone with a serious disease or addiction make them try this program -- it should bring good results. You will be surprised! Another really GREAT book with all kind of internal cleansing methods is "Can We Live 150 Years?". In fact these two books should be sold in one package.
Why is it taboo to criticize this book?.......2007-09-10
I've run into a number of people spurred by the promise of quick weight loss or the belief that they're infested with "toxins" to try this radical "diet." What's astonishing to me is how disinclined people have been so far to question how this motley array of kitchen detritus -- water, lemons, maple syrup and cayenne pepper -- came to assemble itself, or how this perplexing combination of ingredients is specifically supposed to flush out these supposed "toxins."
Reading the book, my first reaction was to wonder how such a text has gotten as far as it has. It only makes sense when I consider my anecdotal experience that it's really the recipe that has travelled far and wide, while the rambling explanation behind it has, to its benefit, remained rather obscure. The author of this terse manifesto of folk medicine wastes no time in proclaiming that his peculiar lemonade (it may have more aptly been Kool-Aid) will cure any disease. He further proclaims, without evidence, that all germs are "our friends," that fungi help us rid our bodies of "toxins," and that asking for the blessing of a meal will raise its "vibrations." Other claims are very easily checked, and should smell fishy even to the casual observer: that lemons and maple syrup provide all the nutrition you need is but one example.
Practitioners of this "diet" flutter with amazement at the results, vindicated that their weight loss that has confirmed the validity of the science behind it: as if there is somehow a correct way to starve yourself.

Book Description
This is among the first books published by Timber Press, and after more than two decades it continues to be one of our signature bestsellers. A comprehensive source of information on the culture, identification, and nomenclature of Japanese maples, it describes each of the 320 cultivars of Acer palmatum and 60 cultivars of other Japanese maple species, plus briefly mentions 150 promising new plants. The index lists every horticultural name published, ensuring that Japanese Maples will continue to be the foremost reference book on this wonderfully versatile collection of ornamental plants.
This fully updated third edition has been revised by Peter Gregory and is even more international than its predecessors. It adds approximately 100 important new maple hybrids and selections that have been introduced since the last revision by Vertrees in 1987, bringing to nearly 400 the total number of plants described. Nomenclature has been updated to conform to current standards, many additional photographs have been included, and descriptions have been rearranged for greater ease of reference.

Book Description
This is a fully revised edition of the best-selling Introduction to Maple. The book presents the modern computer algebra system Maple, teaching the reader not only what can be done by Maple, but also how and why it can be done. The book also provides the necessary background for those who want the most of Maple or want to extend its built-in knowledge. Emphasis is on understanding the Maple system more than on factual knowledge of built-in possibilities. To this end, the book contains both elementary and more sophisticated examples as well as many exercises. The typical reader should have a background in mathematics at the intermediate level. Andre Heck began developing and teaching Maple courses at the University of Nijmegen in 1987. In 1989 he was appointed managing director of the CAN Expertise Center in Amsterdam. CAN, Computer Algebra in the Netherlands, stimulates and coordinates the use of computer algebra in education and research. In 1996 the CAN Expertise Center was integrated into the Faculty of Science at the University of Amsterdam, into what became the AMSTEL Institute. The institute program focuses on the innovation of computer activities in mathematics and science education on all levels of education. The author is actively involved in the research and development aimed at the integrated computer learning environment Coach for mathematics and science education at secondary school level.

first edition.......2002-10-13
I have a copy of the first edition which covers Maple V release 2. While good the 2cd edition and the latter releases of Maple
are both definite improvements.
Excellent reference book for Maple.......2000-12-29
I use this book as a daily reference for calculations in Maple and it is very very useful. It is very detailed where there are examples for every function almost that you can think of. We all know that there is a help within the program, which is quite useful for the introduction to Maple. However, this book enables you to raise your calculations to a higher level. I have searched for a good reference book for Maple for a while and I saw this one in library where after a week of using it I decided to buy one, a nd certainly it has not let me down yet. I do a lot of calculations in Maple and I am sure that this will be very useful for anyone who is in natrual sciences especially mathematics. All general and well known topics are full explained, such as integration, differentiation, limits, differential equations, abstract algebra techniques... and many more. The best thing about this book is the fact that it is explained in a great detail and there are examples for every Maple function, which makes it much easier to understand and actually apply.
Great, ...but..........1999-04-13
Wonderful way of introducing a VERY powerful tool like Maple. However, a tool is exactly what it is; nothing more, nothing less...our own "grey matter" still has a lot to say.

Japanese Maples
ASIN: 0881928097 |
Book Description
With their delicate foliage, seasonal color changes, and intricate pattern of branching, Japanese maples are among the most popular and suitable plants for bonsai design. In this long-awaited book, internationally renowned expert Peter Adams discusses both the specific horticultural needs of Japanese maples as bonsai subjects and illustrates proven techniques for creating and maintaining beautiful specimens. Although aimed at an audience that has some familiarity with bonsai techniques, the book deliberately shows a mix of bonsai at different stages in their training, so that less experienced enthusiasts can gain new ideas and inspiration from trees that are "works in progress." Much more than a mere "how-to" book, Bonsai with Japanese Maples is a forthright attempt to look at bonsai as art objects and to critique and assess them from an artist's perspective.
Customer Reviews:
Everything you ever wanted to know about Maples.......2007-05-14
Great detailed instructions on growing, training and styling bonsai maple trees. Excellent pictures and graphics. He covers several different techniques, some I had never seen discussed anywhere else. Good discussion of the general cultural conditions specific to maples. Suitable for any experience level.
Japanese Maples.......2007-03-29
This book is great. There's a lot of detail specific to trident and japanese maples. I would definitely recommend this to anyone with maples.
The perfect product for bonsai interested maple lovers.......2007-01-22
Bonsai with Japanese Maples by Peter Adams has all you will ever need to know about maples in bonsai. Excellent colour photos, techniques are explained in adequate depth and it is well worth the price, I paid shipping to Australia just for this product. The only issue of concern is that one should read a basic bonsai book for a few clarifications on wording, that is to say it is written for an intermediate-bonsai audience.
After all these years.......2007-01-05
I first saw this book as a bonsai student but it was already out of print. After years of searching, and seeing prices over $150, I am really happy to see it in re-print. It is the seminal Japanese maple book with many ideas that can be used for any deciduous tree. I strongly recommend it for anyone doing bonsai.

Book Description
From a skeleton, a skull, a mere fragment of burnt thighbone, Dr. William Maples can deduce the age, gender, and ethnicity of a murder victim, the manner in which the person was dispatched, and, ultimately, the identity of the killer. In Dead Men Do Tell Tales, Dr. Maples revisits his strangest, most interesting, and most horrific investigations, from the baffling cases of conquistador Francisco Pizarro and Vietnam MIAs to the mysterious deaths of President Zachary Taylor and the family of Czar Nicholas II.

Purchased for my college student.......2007-06-18
My oldest son is going into his senior year in college. He will be working on Forensic classes and I purchased a few fun reads for the summer. He loves the book.
The trials of being a forensic anthropologist.......2007-06-12
I recieved this book as a gift when I was in high school. I loved it then. Since I've recently finished a Masters in forensic anthropology myself, I decided to pull it off my shelf and give it another run through.
This is hands down the most honest and truthful illustration of what it's like to work in this field in a market flooded with a glut of products dedicated to the likes of Patricia Cornwell and Kathy Reichs. Every Bones/CSI fan needs to read this book and learn about the un-glamorous parts of these careers. I went into my career as a forensic anthropologist with a realistic understanding of the job because of Dr. Maples' great prose. While the CSI wannabes whine about the maggots and the smell, I do my job.
This is a great book for anyone who is interested in forensic science and should be a required read in introductory courses.
Thoughtful and Fascinating.......2007-03-22
Considering the gruesome nature of Dr. Maples' work, this is a remarkably delicate and poetic book. While the scientific descriptions are detailed, they at no point talk down to the reader. The photographs are tasteful and relevant, and I appreciate that Dr. Maples treats his subjects with respect due to the other human beings who are so often objectified into "human remains" or "evidence". Fascinating work, and great writing - I devoured it!
The only textbook I kept from college..........2006-12-28
Oh, if only I could rank this as 6 stars ******.
I took a forensics class at UNC Wilmington (little did I know that they would offer a forensics major there years after I graduated with a business degree). I was required to have this book and the day I picked it up from the student bookstore, I read it cover to cover. I still pick it up and read it from time to time. When I lent it to a friend, they lost it and so I came online here and found it as a hardback version!
On a side note: the student in the story that mistook a breast implant for a jellyfish? Yeah, that was my forensics professor when she was a student!
Gripping!.......2006-12-03
Fascinating case studies from a forensic anthropologist, including a detailed examination of his most famous cases - Pizarro, Zachary Taylor, Czar Nicholas II, and Joseph Merrick ("The Elephant Man"). A gripping read.

Naturally sweet.......2001-08-01
This book gives information about alternatives to refined sugar. It is a very good book with excellent recipes (from simple cookies -the chocolate shortbread sounds terrific- to cakes and ice creams. But, something important, be ready to buy or order (there is a page of sources. Fantastic!) "Sucanat" or "maple sugar", "rice syrup" or "maple syrup". Because if you do not have these on hand, you cannot try the recipes. There are also some recipes with honey, an ingredient that is easier to find.
Easy to Enjoy.......2001-01-10
Most of the cookbooks I own come with the appliances I buy. This book is an exception. I enjoy the flavours of maple syrup and honey and was delighted to find a cookbook that caters to my tastes. I find the recipes easy to follow. I'm not an expert in the kitchen. Beside each recipe is a margin where the author has put some notes and room enough for you to enter any notes you may want to as well. At the end of some recipes are tips that give you a clue as to what to expect if you've never had the experience of, "Carmelizing Maple Syrup", for example. Another tip I really liked was the suggestion of using a variety of apples in my apple pie. That was a tasty surprise. The Pastry recipe, which she credits to Julia Child, is the best I've ever had. If you are a chocolate lover, try Aunt Josephine's Chocolate Cake. It's heavenly. I find the author's approach to the reader to be like a personal tutorial. It's like she's right there watching over and encouraging your every move. I haven't tried all the recipes yet but I'm getting a little braver as I tackle the standards: date squares, brownies, pies, and cookies. Thank you Carrie Davis for the "Naturally Sweet Baker".
Yummmy!.......2001-01-10
As a professed chocoholic I was prepared only to savour the chocolate recipes in Carrie Davis's The Naturally Sweet Baker. But to be fair, I didn't restrict myself to those, although there is an ample supply. And I have to admit, that Davis's Maple Mousse is just about the nicest dessert I have ever made or eaten! And my guests raved about it too.
Of course, Aunt Josephine's Chocolate Cake was a real winner as well. This cookbook is a great resource for information about alternatives to refined sugar in your baking, and an absolute treasure trove of recipes. Check it out for some fun, adventure and delicious treats!

Customer Reviews:
Just the facts Jack.......2007-07-03
Pocket Guide to Japanese Maples is an excellent companion to the ultimate maple reference book entitled, Japanese Maples by J.Vertrees and Peter Gregory. I find this book to be well thought out and consolidated. It includes addition information as to cultivation and some newer cultivar. This book gives the reader the most important information quickly, easily and succinctly. I is a very welcome addition and most appreciated.
Handy for arborists and horticulturalists.......2007-06-10
Small brief and compact but very detailed synopsis of the about 300 cultivar. Useful for taking to the nursery or when you go to gardens with cultivar. Well illustrated and designed for quick reference.
Excellent Resource for Acer Palmatum Lovers!!.......2007-05-27
This is an excellent companion, for any lover of Japanese Maples, to the Hardcover volume, "Japanese Maples" and it is transportable and can be used as a reference on the go. The descriptions and photos are spot on and it's organized by landscape purpose, location and size. It also includes 50 new cultivars. I would strongly recommend it.

Book Description
The Maple Street Press Red Sox Annual 2007 gives fans the detailed information that they’ve always longed for. Other preseason annuals merely scratch the surface and devote just a few pages of coverage to the Sox, but this publication delivers the thorough, intensive treatment of the team that Red Sox fans have come to expect from Maple Street Press.
Included with a complete breakdown of the 2007 roster and what to look for in the upcoming season is a study of the team’s off-season moves, including the courting of Japanese phenom Daisuke Matsuzaka. Further, the book analyzes catcher Jason Varitek and what he does or does not mean to the Sox pitching staff. Acclaimed statistician Pete Palmer breaks down the move of Jonathan Papelbon to the rotation and why he is much more valuable there than in the bullpen.
Fans also get a look back at Red Sox history, including a review of Joe Cronin and his storied, yet somewhat forgotten, career. Also included is a fortieth-anniversary recollection of the magical summer of 1967 through a poignant fan remembrance.
The Annual evaluates the full Red Sox organization, including the team’s entire minor league system and its top prospects. It also reviews the last two “youth movements” the Red Sox instituted in 1987 and 1997, and how they compare to the current group of prospects.
Written by Red Sox fans for Red Sox fans, the Maple Street Press 2007 Red Sox Annual is more than a hundred pages of full-color, ad-free Red Sox coverage unlike anything else available.

Book Description
Scientists and engineers attempting to solve complex problems require efficient, effective ways of applying numerical methods to ODEs and PDEs. They need a resource that enables fast access to library routines in their choice of a programming language. Ordinary and Partial Differential Equation Routines in C, C++, Fortran, Java, Maple, and MATLAB provides a set of ODE/PDE integration routines in the six most widely used languages in science and engineering, enabling scientists and engineers to apply ODE/PDE analysis toward solving complex problems. This text concisely reviews integration algorithms, then analyzes the widely used Runge Kutta method It first presents a complete code before discussing its components in detail, focusing on integration concepts such as error monitoring and control. The format allows you to understand the basics of ODE/PDE integration, then calculate sample numerical solutions within your targeted programming language. The applications discussed can be used as templates for the development of a spectrum of new applications and associated codes.
