Works Better than Waterboarding!

Operatives in the U.S. intelligence community--CIA, FBI, DHS--listen fellas, when it comes to extracting information from suspected terrorists, I know your hands are tied.  Try this: put person of interest in front of a big screen with surround sound, press play on "Ultron," repeat as necessary.  Though once through may do the trick!

I did not expect so much about this player, but works perfectly under the water. I use it for swimming, the transference rate is slow but works underwater! and change my boring long training sessions with music! :)

This method really works. Most of the reviews on Neil Slade's work are focused on the mood changing effects, why I will concentrate on the effects on logic and creativity.
When I first tried tickling my amygdalas with imaginary feathers, I felt a deep and honest feeling of joy. This convinced me that the methods actually have some kind of influence on the brain. However, my primary purpose was to improve my intelligence and its different aspects. I soon experience a greater flow when writing, reading, speaking and general thinking - meaning logic, creative and empathic thinking. Furthermore, it has been very beneficial as a quick preparation for other activities which also seeks to use the minds full potential - activities such as image-streaming, photoreading and meditation.
The benefits for me have been clearest at times where I am normally at challenge. To give some examples, my brain is signifanctly slower when I have had too few hours of sleep. However, after learning how to tickle m amygdalas, my brain has been much clearer, faster and does not seem to be affected very much by the lack of sleep. In addition, my communicating skills have not been at the level I would like them to be, but after using Neil Slade's methods, my vocabulary seems to expand and my speaking and writing flow without the common blocks that I would usually experience. Also, as a student of photoreading, I have tried to eliminate subvocalization to supercharge my reading, and by tickling my amygdalas (especially the right one it appears) I understand the reading material much faster without having to read aloud inside my head.
I have always had a little voice inside my head telling me that I couldn't achieve the highest grade. Especially in large writing assignments were detail bares much importance. But this summer I took a course in internet marketing and got the highest possible grade without only a modest amount of effort. I used approximately 4-5 days of moderate work, while others used more than two weeks. In addition, they got their paper reviewed by our teacher, in order to make some corrections before the deadline. Since I began too late, I could not get this help. The amygdala clicking was perhaps not the only factor worth mentioning, however I am certain that it was one of them, and a significant one - no doubt. Thanks Neil! BR from Denmark

Let me start by saying that this s*** is not meant to touch your eyeballs.  I am shocked at all the negative reviews that talk about burning their eyes.  Who in the world would spray a chemical into goggles and let it get into their eyes.  Sigh.

Here is how you use this stuff and it will work brilliantly (and you won't lose eyesight).  If they are new googles let them soak in clean water for a few hours.  Take them out and dry them.  Spray this stuff.  Let it dry.  Do it again.  I usually spray 3 times.  Let it sit for an hour or so.  RINSE your goggles in clean water.

This stuff will work brilliantly for you and you will still have your retinas attached at the end of your dive/snorkel trip

Amazing and effective. This will snap and hold and kill instantly. Best thing is you don't have to touch the icky and repulsive rodent nor will you get your finger snapped if you do it right, so easy. Use a q tip to put peanut butter in the hole for bait, set it and forget it. Much better than the old wooden traps and the new wooden traps with the yellow paddle, throw those out and buy this. Jaws of death works amazingly.

Purchased this for a snorkeling trip i recently took.  This thing worked amazingly well.  I have always had a problem with water coming into the snorkel and swallowing the water on accident.  There is no feeling worse than that.  This mask will not allow water to backflow into your mouth.  I have also hated breathing through a mouthpiece and this mask requires no mouthpeice, you just slip it over your head and you breath normally.  The mask does look a little bit goofy, but is totally worth it because your snorkeling experience is going to be 100x better than with a traditional snorkel.

The seal was perfect on my face even though i have short facial hair.  The packaging said to shave for best results, but it was not a problem at all for me.  No water entered my mouth or goggle portion.  Definitely impressed with this mask.

I recently purchased this and used it for the first time on an 8 day trip at Mt. Rainier.  What I wouldn't give to have had one while in the Marine Corps.  I can't praise it enough.  The only thing I can add is to be careful where you store it.  Inn the middle of the night on the 2nd day of my trip I stepped on it and heard something that made me want to cry - a snap!  I'd managed to crack it almost in half length-wise.  Thank goodness I always carry a small amount of duct tape.  The tape fixed it up great and it continues to be leak-proof.  The pStyle will completely change how you feel about peeing anywhere you'd rather not expose yourself, as well as anywhere you'd prefer to not accidentally pee on you footwear and clothing.  The cute octopus carry case is a very helpful addition.

I bought this for tonsil stones, and it has been very helpful. It comes with an attachment that works perfectly for that use, and helps clear out some of the gunk inside the tonsils, not just on the surface. True, it does feel initially like you are waterboarding yourself, and water goes everywhere... mirror, sink, counter, etc. But after a few uses you get used to it, and figure out how to position things to avoid getting water everywhere. I definitely feel my breath has improved.

It is also fairly compact, and doesn't take up much counter space, which I like.

Some dogs can be negatively affected by this training tool despite its effectiveness as a controller (except when/if the dog shuts down). My dog took a long time to adapt and never fully adjusted. She underwent a severe personality change becoming an anxious, reluctant, more disturbed dog from a well-adjusted happy-spirited dog. She is gentle and sensitive in tempearment, and I just think this particular tool is not suited to such thin-skinned, more sensitive dogs. My dog fiercely rejected it, and I was told by the trainer to "hang in" for an adjustment period. I'm soooo glad I stopped it finally after almost 2 weeks!

Two things that are not well-known, but that I have found effective with my now 6-month old "sensitive", gentle rescue.

1) The Freedom No-Pull Harness. I used this when she was younger and it worked instantly out of the box. She outgrew it, so when we started school and the trainer suggested the Gentle Leader, I naturally thought that would be better. But for my dog, it was simply a catastrophe. When I upgraded to the next size of my old method, my sensitive girl went right back under control. Pulling stops immediately, she's calm during a walk, responsive to commands...we're both a lot happier!

2) Some people won't find this second recommendation palatable, but I'll put it out there for those who might be open... I'm a clinical psychologist also trained in the use of flower essence therapy (not essential oils). Because my dog had such an extreme stress response and personality change from the Gentle Leader, I put her on a blend of flower essences that can be purchased at any good health food store.
Here's the remedy:  1) Rescue Remedy-for high levels of stress  2) Mimulus-for fear, and 3) Oregon Grape-for paranoia  Luckily, in just a couple of days, my dog returned not only to normal, but better than normal because underlying fears and distrust were resolved for her :-)

Good luck everybody!!! Woof!

I had about a 6ft long verticle crack on the side of my foundation.  Water leaked in and damaged the lower part of my dry wall in the corner of the basement and got some of my carpet wet.  I didn't want to break into my drywall and ruin the seamless look.  So I decided to tackle the job from the outside.  I dug a whole on the outside of my foundation till i found the bottom of the crack.  At the bottom of the crack it ended at the corner and was cracked partially on the front side of the house too. I followed the instructions closely and it was very easy plus it comes with a cd so you can see a video of how to do it too.  This helps a lot. You have to be quick when mixing the adhesive and applying the injection ports. Be very generous and spread it wide.  Make sure you have no holes and be sure to get under each port very well so there are no pin holes.  If there are pin holes you will find them when do you do the injection.  Don't worry you can still have a successfull job done with pin holes. The only confusing part was that they stated it may take you 3-4 minutes at each port.  I thought that meant keep injecting more in until it comes out the port above and this might take 3-4 minutes.  I was wrong, and I used more than i needed.  Squeeze 3 or 4 times fully and let it sit for a few minutes and it will foam up and start coming out of the port above. If you wish you can inject a little more to be sure.  Once finished I let it all dry.  Here came the test.  The hole i dug was right under the gutter.  The next day we had heavy rain and storms. My gutter popped off and water was gushing into my 6 ft hole.  The next day after the storm the hole was completely filled with water to the top!  It was a pool of water just sitting against my foundation for hours.  I ran into the basement where it leaked before and nothing! Not a drop of water came in.  I was so lucky and thankful this kit worked.  It saved me hundreds of dollars and was easy enough to do myself.  I would recommend this product to anyone looking to repair a crack themselves and save money.  This kit works well!

Naysayers, listen up! I was raised by no-nonsense parents and am a very no-nonsense parent myself. This whole "touchy feely" parenting thing was not my bag. Kids should do what their parents tell them to do, period. Who has time to try to make the kid think it's their idea and all the other nonsense?

Enter my very strong-willed 4-year old. We have battled and fought for years, and after a particularly epic screaming match, I finally decided that what I was doing was not working. I started looking for books on how to raise a strong-willed child and came across this book. I waited impatiently for 3 days for my next Audible credit and then downloaded it and started listening to it on my hour long drive home from work.

The advice sounded good, for someone else's kid. I thought, they make it sound so simple. That's never going to work on my kid. I got home, an hour into listening to the book, and I started trying out some of the techniques. I used them to get my kid to eat dinner, get her upstairs for bedtime, get her in the bath, get her jammies on, get her to go to the potty before bed. Over and over again, this stuff was working. I was amazed.

When I have my head together enough to be able to do the stuff, it always works. I might have to try a couple different techniques, but it does end up working.

What I like about this book is that they give you many examples. They also say the negative thoughts that are in my head, like "Won't this just teach my kid that it's my responsibility to make going to the potty fun instead of their responsibility to just go to the potty?" And then they explain why it works.

I am now back to purchase the print book, just so I can have it on hand for quick reference. This book has changed my life.

I was desperate to find help for my 15 month old rescued siberian husky's separation anxiety. She was still struggling with being alone after many, many months of working with her using gradual separation techniques. I read mixed reviews about DAP's effectiveness, but decided to give it a shot anyway. I certainly did not expect miracles and actually fully anticipated it would have little effect on her behavior.

Within  2 weeks of putting it on her, I had increased the amount of time she could spend alone from 30 minutes to over 4 hours using gradual separation techniques and the DAP collar. This was remarkable! Not only is she calm while I am gone, she is no longer displaying overly-excited behaviors when I return.

I am very pleased with the effectiveness of this collar and would recommend it. It is important to remember that you still must work with your dog on separation issues. The collar does not 'fix" the problem. It is a tool for use during the behavior modification period that will help the dog calm itself more effectively.

Bought this to use while training SCUBA students...  Playing with this water toy under water eliminated anxiety. This is critical when training a veteran with PTSD! Great product!

If you're facing a larger than average shower or tub cleaning job, as in it's downright embarrassing and disgusting on multiple levels (as in you'd be embarrassed if a maid saw how dirty it was).

Method will hook you up.

This product works SUPER WELL. No watery eyes. It's wise to ventilate the room and wear eye-protection. But you're generally not exposing yourself to industrial chemicals for 1-2 hours like you would using most other brands.

How I tackled my disgustingly dirty shower:
* dowse the entire shower with method. Wait a few min's.
* repeat the above task 2-3 times,keeping the shower walls / tub doused & wet with Method.
* use a waffle textured cleaning pad ($1 at any dollar store), wipe down / scrub any and all surfaces.
* rinse all surfaces with water 2-3 times.
* Then repeat the first step + rinse one more time.

And then every week afterward, just do a once-over with Method, spraying the walls, the shower / tub floor (considered the germiest surface in most homes), and the shower curtain liner and/or shower doors.

I used to cringe at the thought of cleaning my shower. But this product changed everything. (along with Scrubbing Bubbles flushable WC wipes, which target DOES NOT carry for some reason; Lowes has them though).

Note: The BIG JOB I mentioned above might require an entire bottle. But once it's clean, with a weekly spray-down, a bottle will last a good 2-3 mos. I use eye protection and rubber gloves when I do the big cleaning jobs.

Worked great for my 50g mixed reef tank. I have a lot of corals, inverts, filter feeders such a sponges and feather dusters. I had an ich outbreak which I lost most of my fish in I lost 1x yellow tang, 1x blue hippo tang, 1xlion fish 2x clown fish and 1 green chromis I did setup an established hospital tank which was a total fail my fish got even more stressed during the whole moving tank. So I gave my tank a few weeks without any fish so 3 days ago I purchased a new pair of wild caugh tomatoe clown fish from my lfs within a few hrs of being in my tank I noticed they already had white spots on them I was so angry so I saw this product and figure I'd give it a try I had no other option so I did and I'm so glad I did this I should of done this from the very beginning I might still have most of my fish with me. DONT LISTEN TO THE PEOPLE THAT WILL TELL YOU THAT THIS DOESN'T WORK Because I have a fully stock reef tank and did this the job 100% you're supposed to dose 5ml per 10 us gallons I have a 50g with a 20g sump so I dose 5ml 7x also don't be afraid to dose mutiple times a day I did it twice the first day and then 3x the 2 days after that. I used the product for a whole week, IMPORTANT remove your carbon, media, any sort of filtration you have in your system as this will remove the medication from the water and we don't want that also TURN OFF your skimmer if you have one, micron socks are Okay to leave just shut off any media reactors or remove media bags whatever it is you might have. I hope this review makes other reefers feel safe using this !

I bought the Otterbox soley as a kayaking precaution: I don't intend to get my iPod wet but when you're paddling in questionable weather, as Rumsfeld would say, 'Stuff happens.'  So I found this little thing and to my amazement people were actually swimming with them.  So I researched the product a bit and found it received mainly positive but still mixed reviews.

  When the Otterbox arrived I was skeptical and set up some very simple waterproof tests.  First, submerging the empty case in a water pitcher.  Perfect.  Submerged with shaking; again, perfect.  Then, I inserted the iPod as directed and sumberg... nononoonnoogetitoutgetitoutdammitisitdead??!!!  It, um, didn't perform as well as I hoped but about as well as I expected.  Water quickly seeped through the very very small amount of sealing rubber and began drowning the iPod (in a matter of five seconds.)  After making sure the iPod wasn't totally hosed I opted to give it another shot.  This time I squeezed the living beejesus outta the thing and it worked fine.

 So, findings: If you plan on using this as a waterproofing device, this probabally will work but I wouldn't trust it 100% so, in short, how much do you actually care about your iPod?  If you're okay risked it, this should be worth the risk.  If you can't/really don't want to replace it, keep it outta the dang water.  If you care only for function and not style, you can buy some waterproof headphones, duct tape, and Saran wrap and be fine.

  If you want this solely as a precautionary measure, a small dry bag and duct tape(i.e. for kayaking) is less expense and much more reassuring than this thing.  While, yes, on the second try it was waterproof, I wouldn't want to bet money that was the case each time I got wet.

I bought the PIF-300 system when I moved to my new home that did not have a fence around the yard.  At first, we were very skeptical about how well it would work on VERY headstrong and enthusiastic dogs (American Pit Bull Terriers).  After the boundary was set on the base unit and flags were placed out as visual cues, we let my 12 year old dog out with the collar on.  I walked her around the boundary, and it only took the collar beeping a few times and two light shocks for her understand the correlation between the flags, beeping, and the consequential shock.  We bought the second collar for my two year male.  It took him a little longer to catch on, and we had to increase the shock level from 2 to 3 to 4.  Two weeks later, now we can't even coax him past the "beep" boundary with his favorite toy or food.

This collar is water resistant and not water proof, so DO NOT let your animal in a pool/bath/lake/yard sprinkler with it on.  Our dog went into the pool for less than 10 seconds before we caught her, and we had to take all covers off of the box to let water drain out.  Even after a thorough drying, the battery low light continually blinks.  A second look at the instruction manual showed me that they do indeed warn against this.  Lesson learned.

I can't recommend this system enough.
