We sometimes have missionaries drop by, which in itself I don't mind because I enjoy their visits if they are scheduled.... but sometimes they would drop by at strange times, and if my kids are at school, I'm not usually dressed for the day.
One time this happened, and I knew it was them at the door, and I didn't answer. They knew I was home.... but later that evening after they called to make an appointment, they mentioned that they came by earlier. I didn't want to appear deceptive, (and I like to shock people), I said, "oh, yes, I knew it was you and I didn't answer because I wasn't dressed," and these are young men around 19... lol.... they always called for appointments after that.

Review: 2008 Ford Focus SES Coupe
by John Neff (RSS feed) on Nov 19th, 2007 at 1:06PM
A car's design is simply a composite of curves, creases and kinks. A good design will elicit an emotion that urges people to buy the car. The affected just have to have it, often blind to any faults the car may exhibit by the way it makes them feel. The design of the 2008 Ford Focus makes us feel an emotion, too. Unfortunately, it's pity. We honestly feel bad for the latest iteration of Ford's small car. We fear that its strengths will go largely unnoticed on account of a few bad design choices. Of course, we're speaking of the redesigned front end and those fauxest of faux fender vents.... Read More

The 411 on Diabetes + Thyroid Disease
My dad has hypothyroidism, as does my grandmother. For my whole life, my dad has taken a tiny little pill every morning to make sure his metabolism functions properly. I always thought that compared to diabetes, thyroid disease wasn't very "serious" — all my dad needed to do was pop a pill! — and that it was nothing I needed to worry about anyway. But then, because of my diabetes and my "genetic predisposition," my…Read more »

Military personnel in combat zones have more time to file returns and pay taxes
The South Carolina Department of Revenue is giving military personnel stationed in designated combat areas more time to file their income tax returns and pay their taxes.
Members of the military currently serving in the Persian Gulf in Operation Iraqi Freedom, or other areas designated as combat zones, have 180 days after their departure from the combat zone to file their tax returns and pay any taxes owed. The extension also applies to a service member who is hospitalized because of injuries or illness suffered while serving in a combat zone.
South Carolina also has adopted an Internal Revenue Service provision that excludes certain combat pay from South Carolina income taxes.
A policy document issued by the Department of Revenue on March 28, 2003, gives details on the tax relief and the procedures for the service member or their spouse. The policy document, Temporary Revenue Procedure #03-2, can be found under the title "Policy Documents" at the Department of Revenue website, www.sctax.org.
In addition to giving the service member more time to file and pay, the Department will waive penalties and interests incurred by service members unable to pay estimated taxes while in a combat zone, or penalties and interest added to a service member's tax liability during the current deadline extension. The Department also will suspend the agency's enforced collection of a service member's previously assessed tax liability for at least 180 days following their departure from a combat zone.
Information on the federal extension for filing and paying taxes for military personnel can be found at the IRS website at www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p3.pdf., or by calling 1-866-562-5227.
The Persian Gulf, the Red Sea, the Gulf of Oman, the Gulf of Aden, Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Bahrain, Qatar, United Arab Emirates, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Tajikistan, Jordan, Incirlik Air Base (Turkey), Kyrgystan, Uzbekistan, the Philippines, Yemen and Djibouti have been designated as combat zones eligible for the tax relief.

Not very sturdy!
By Joeman
from Nashville, TN
Hasn't held up after a couple weeks use.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Much better than the original!
By ReturningKing

About Me Working Parent
After I received the original orange hard case as a Christmas gift, I was very disappointed when a corner cracked only a few weeks later. After calling and get them to agree to replace it, it took longer than I would have liked (a month or two) to get the replacement. However, I was VERY HAPPY with the new version - the newer model has the rubber bumper which is much more resilient to bumps and being dropped. Now, after about 6 months, the bumper is starting to peel off the back. Overall, a good buy.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Very Happy with my phone cover
By K in KC
from Kansas City, KS
After reading a couple of reviews about the Psych phone cover, I was a bit worried the Psych logo would start peeling off after a couple of weeks, but that hasn't happened. I purchased it in orange with the white trim which makes finding my phone around the house much easier. It's been over a month since I got it, there's been no peeling & it still brightens up my day.

Found out the hard way
By Mc Clap Yo Hands
from Santa Barbara, Ca
About Me Collector, Psycho
So I had it in my shirt pocket and leaned over a table (while standing on a chair...so a distance of 3.5 feet from phone to table) and my phone fell out. The case protected my phone great! But the case backing, the orange part that says "psych" on it, popped off. Yeah... So... I found out it is 2 pieces... The hard way... I glued it back on. But over all it was a pretty sweet case.
Perfect quirky gift

(4 of 4 customers found this review helpful)
By Jennifer
from Phoenix, Az
I love the case, it fits perfect on the phone, the downside is that the back (in orange) seems to be a thick sticker which is already peeling off on two corners. It's unfortunate and I'm super bummed. If it didn't peel then I would recommend it.

[Download the NAMI fact sheet on coping tips for siblings and adult children.]
If you find it difficult to come to terms with the challenges presented by your sibling's or parent's mental illness, you are not alone: there are many others who share your difficulty. Most siblings and adult children of people living with psychiatric disorders find that mental illness in a brother, sister or parent is a tragic event that changes everyone's life in many fundamental ways. Strange, unpredictable behaviors in a loved one can be devastating, and your own personal anxiety can increase as you struggle with each illness episode and worry about the future. It seems impossible at first, but most siblings and adult children find that over time they do gain the knowledge and skills to cope with the challenges resulting from the mental illness effectively. They find that they have strengths they never knew they had, and they are able to meet situations that they never anticipated facing.
The best starting place for learning to cope is to educate yourself; find out as much information as possible about mental illness by reading and by talking with others experiencing similar difficulties. NAMI has a variety of resources available for you: books, pamphlets, fact sheets and other resources available about different illnesses, treatments and issues you may have to deal with. NAMI has an educational program developed specifically for family members of individuals living with mental illness. The NAMI Family-to-Family Program is a 12-session course that teaches families facts about the illnesses, skills necessary to navigate the challenging episodes and how to find support for the future. NAMI also provides support groups for family members of individuals living with mental illness. These groups provide reminders about the need for you to take care of yourself so that you can continue to face the issues presented by the illnesses.
To find information about support groups and Family-to-Family classes in your area contact your NAMI State Organization or NAMI Affiliate. If you need information on how to contact them visit the NAMI website at www.nami.org or call the NAMI HelpLine at 1 (800) 950-6264. You will find a wide array of information and links to other resources when you visit the NAMI website.

2. Strategies and Realities

I wondered how you'd fare when I saw the weather predictions for Oregon. Stay dry!!

Honey is one smart hen. She knows were she needs to be.
Love the photos and the first snow pictures.
Your cat is a brave one. Can't believe she just walked right out there with you. How sweet that you carried her.
Lovely post.
- January 17, 2012 at 10:03 PM
- Farmer Jen said...
I love your farm stories. And I am so proud of George for braving that deep snow. Cats really don't like to be wet or cold. He is a very special kitty. And yes, I could tell that he appreciated the lift you gave him. Honey is funny. And cute.
- January 18, 2012 at 12:12 AM
- Mike said...
I have family north of Seattle and have been seeing pics of their snow. Looks the same as yours. We had a high of 67 yesterday, where-as last year this time we were iced in several days.
Don't blame them animals for staying in.

- Sue, Joe and Michael Webber said...
I'd be snuggled in right there with them two, what wise creatures that Honey and Roxy are!!
- January 18, 2012 at 2:15 AM
- LindaG said...
Wow. And there are so many people wanting snow and not getting any.
Glad to see everyone is doing okay, though. I know you would have preferred to stay in bed, too. ;)
George is a great kitty! :)
- January 18, 2012 at 4:17 AM
- Mellimaus said...
Aww, what a lovely post! I especially liked the part about George; barn cats are just so loyal :) Mine follow me through the thickest snow when no one else will too :)
- January 18, 2012 at 5:42 AM
- Christine said...
Awesome photos! It is beautiful there with all that snow even if none of the animals like it.
I seriously love that cat. He's so handsome.
- January 18, 2012 at 5:46 AM
- linda m said...
Great pictures, very pretty. Poor Honey, don't blame her a bit. We had snow here also, but not as much as you had. Your stories about animals are so funny; I can just hear them saying this to you.
- January 18, 2012 at 6:02 AM
- MTWaggin said...
I know how they feel, kinda wanted to have breakfast in bed myself this morning. Roxy's look at those sweaters is like "Get those away from me I'm staying in bed" and George in that second photo looks to be saying "Could you shuffle your feet a bit more"! Stay warm and somewhat dry!
- January 18, 2012 at 6:41 AM
- the7msn said...
Honey proves yet again what a smart girl she is. I've been watching your forecast, waiting for these pictures. Looks like George is expecting you to shovel him a little path. What a fine companion he has become.
- January 18, 2012 at 6:50 AM
It's one of those days to finish the outside chores, go into the house, start a fire, and stay into crochet, knit or what ever hobby you like. Stay warm!!
- January 18, 2012 at 6:51 AM
- Dreaming said...
You got a lot of snow! Wow! Your pictures are great illustrations of your story. I love the picture of Roxie barely putting her butt down in the little bit of snow.
George is such a faithful follower!
- January 18, 2012 at 7:18 AM
- Marigold said...
Okay, if you carried George, then who took the picture? Ah, ha! Critter farm has a ghost! I, myself, think it is atrocious behavior that the goat boys set foot outside the barn. Very un-goatlike. Honey, on the other hand, I will make an honorary goat. Very smart chicken, if you ask me. Believe me when I say no one here is stepping out in this stuff - well, except the Mighty Quinn who sees it as a nose snow shovel opportunity. Stay warm!
- January 18, 2012 at 8:27 AM
- Zitrone said...
I don't know how old George is, but he has never had it so good. Until he met you, Critter Farm Mom, he had to fend for himself and certainly never was carried in loving arms up to his food source. His face tells it all: triumphantly content! George has a way of showing his appreciation. Too bad Wolfi insists on chasing him.
And Honey - I don't believe she knows she is a chicken. Did you have something to do with that?
Kai LLama is happy in her surroundings no matter what the weather. But the goat boys and donkey fellows are really wimpy in my opinion. They need jobs!
I love the last photo! Everything looks so beautiful and I can almost hear the quiet.
- January 18, 2012 at 8:41 AM
- Carolynn said...
We're getting loads of the stuff too. Our dogs have both been pleading with us not to go outside in the minus 20 degree (Celcius) weather, too. Once they're out there though, they start to play and romp in the snow and have a great time.
If that isn't a look of adoration on George's face, I don't know what is. He's a sweet boy, that fella. Give him a big squeeze from me.
- January 18, 2012 at 9:30 AM
- CaliforniaGrammy said...
I had no idea you had snow, I guess I've not paid attention to the news lately. Those guests at Critter Farm really have it made with you as their mom. Love the sweet face on George as he hitches a ride down to the barn ... and Honey truly is a crack-up! What a smart, albeit stubborn, chicken.
- January 18, 2012 at 10:54 AM
- Grace said...
I must admit I'm a little jealous of the snow. Kai and I would understand each other, I suspect.
George the Intrepid always has your back, doesn't he? Loved those pics. He is a lovely cat.
Ahhh, Honey. Like Justina's Patrick, and LC's Alan, Honey holds a very special place in my heart.
- January 18, 2012 at 11:44 AM
- Tree Hugger - Suzan said...
Honey is so pretty, fluffy and SMART!
- January 18, 2012 at 12:56 PM
- JaneK said...
so many things to say and not enough brain power to do it; but briefly: how'd you get that pic of Roxy with "snow" and no footprints... pretty clever girl you are! and what a faithful companion George has turned out to be; it is heartwarming; and Honey? well, we all knew she was a smart girl
thanks for the lovely shots and poetic narration as always :)
- January 18, 2012 at 5:48 PM
- CeeCee said...
Smart animals! They get to stay out of the weather and have you come look after them. :)
I see by FB status that you've lost power. That snow looks very heavy and wet. I hope it melts away quickly and normal power is restored soon.
Stay warm!!
- January 18, 2012 at 5:49 PM
- georgie said...
Isn't it funny how we have our favorite blogger critters? Here it is Ellsworth(Morning Bray), Lucy (7MSN)and your George. Honey seems to have more personality than your average chicken-but then she isn't average!
- January 18, 2012 at 8:12 PM
- Betsey said...
I don't think I've ever seen a chicken "puss" face. Poor Honey. How funny!
- January 19, 2012 at 7:05 AM
- jaz@octoberfarm said...
this is so cute! honey is such a character and a smart girl! you could send some of that snow this way!!! i would appreciate it very much!
- January 19, 2012 at 7:08 AM
why does Honey live by herself and not with the other chickens??? Just being curious! Hope it is not a health problem with her.
- January 19, 2012 at 9:29 AM
- IanH said...
At least it looks warm out. I don't blame the critters for laying low.

- January 19, 2012 at 11:25 AM
- Leigh said...
LOLOL. Reminds me of our "big" snow last year (7 inches, well, that was huge for us), a day no chicken would go outside. Looks like winter has arrived at last.
- January 20, 2012 at 2:31 AM

- January 20, 2012 at 7:02 AM
I so love George! I just want to squeeze him! He looks so much like a cat we used to own. Seems to have the same personality, too. Thank you for the lovely pictures.
- January 20, 2012 at 10:54 AM
- pilgrimscottage said...
Too cute, too cute, just too cute. LOOOVE it!! I get a kick of of Roxy's expression when you asked her which sweater she wants to wear. Ha! She was definitely saying..."uh-uh, I'm not going out there!"
- January 21, 2012 at 10:47 AM
I like your blog very much with all the great pictures which I found via The Perils of Palin.
I used to have a garden which I wished to keep deer & rabbits out of. Human hair keeps them away. I went to the beauty shop and got all the cut off hair & spread it all around the perimeter. It works!
- January 22, 2012 at 1:19 PM
- Inger said...
Oh Danni, that's just gorgeous! I had no idea you got that much snow. We haven't had any here. I'm with Kai, I love the snow and miss it so much. Thanks for all these beautiful pictures. I love how valiantly George tried to follow you. So sweet.

- Teri said...
Okay..... I've missed something here. Why does Honey live in a pet porter and not in the coop with the rest of her gang? I so enjoy your blog.... found ya from your visits to 7MSN Ranch.
- January 25, 2012 at 5:11 AM
- jillian said...
Hi, looks like we got part of that same system. Brrr. I love that you actually were able to catch Honey venturing out...and then back in.
My goat girls respond exactly the same as your boys; they have been most vocal over the last week about their discontent with the weather. :)
- January 25, 2012 at 6:11 AM
- Danni said...
Hi Teri... Thanks for your comment! If you look above, about 6 comments earlier, I posted two links that tell Honey's story and why she sleeps in a dog crate on my laundry room porch. :-). (spoiler alert: it's 100% her choice!).

Katy Nelson, special to wtop.com
WASHINGTON - Nick White has been a Marine, Secret Service member, dog trainer, and now, he can add reality TV show star to his resume.
White, owner of Off-Leash K9 Training in Woodbridge, Va. was invited to train with Nat Geo Wild's new reality show "Alpha Dogs" next month.
Each episode follows Kenny Licklider and his team of tattooed, baseball cap and muscle shirt- wearing dog trainers of Vohne Liche Kennels, located on 350 acres in Denver, Ind., as they work tirelessly to produce highly-skilled military dogs.
The methods they use to train the dogs, as well as the handlers, aren't always traditional, but you wouldn't expect anything else from this unusual team.
"I truly look forward to working with these top-notch protection and detection trainers, and I'm confident that I can learn a lot from their vast experience in these areas," White says.
Licklider works with more than 400 dogs and 150 military, police and special forces handlers from 46 states and 20 countries every year.
White says his clients differ from Vohne Liche Kennels, since he works with average pet owners as opposed to police military and security contractors. The dogs also have distinct differences.
"Vohne Liche almost exclusively works with high-drive, high-energy working breeds such as Belgian Malinois and German Shepherds," he says. "On the other hand, we primarily work with your average pet dogs with little-to-no drive, limited energy and behavioral issues."
White grew up in a small town in Ohio as the son of a police officer. He trained his first dog as a teenager when his parents gave in to his requests and got him a high-energy German Shepherd who required extensive attention and training.
After joining the Marines at age 18, White served in Fallujah, Iraq and worked alongside some of the finest protection dogs in the service. He then moved to the D.C. area to work for the Secret Service.
After moving to D.C., a few friends started asking him to train their dogs, and word quickly spread. Eventually, White left the Secret Service in 2009 to begin Off-Leash K9 Training. However, he didn't anticipate the national attention he would gain.
In April 2012, he was featured in a Yahoo! article, which then led to stories in American Legion Magazine and U.S. Veterans Magazine, just to name a few. And then the celebrities came calling.
White has trained dogs owned by basketball superstars, music legends and Ultimate Fighting Championship and Mixed Martial Arts fighters. He says each sought him out for his ability to train a "regular dog" to obey with the precision of a working dog, all while building the confidence of the pet, rather than breaking it down.
With eight dog training locations around the country, White isn't lacking in ambition.
"Five years from now, I see Off-Leash K9 Training as a household name nationwide, with over 20 plus locations, a hit reality show and even doing product licensing with our name," he says.
White adds that he hopes to learn new training techniques while visiting the "Alpha Dogs" team.
"As I told the guys from Alpha Dogs,' I am a great trainer," he says. "However, I'm a great enough trainer to know that I can still be better in certain areas."
"Alpha Dogs" airs on Nat Geo Wild at 9 p.m. on Fridays.

No sales tax booklets or withholding booklets to be mailed in 2011
The South Carolina Department of Revenue (SCDOR) will not be mailing withholding or sales tax return booklets in 2011. The SCDOR is constantly seeking more efficient and inexpensive ways to provide service to the taxpayers, and the Department will realize significant savings in printing and postage with these changes.
Instead of filing by paper, taxpayers will be able to file withholding and sales tax returns electronically. All filing and payment options are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
There are four electronic options for withholding: The EPay and EWithholding options allow users to submit their withholding payments and returns, respectively, directly online through the agency's website; Business Telefile for withholding is an interactive voice response system via telephone for filing withholding returns; and, Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) is a limited payment option that can be set up by your financial institution.
In place of sales tax return booklets, the DOR will be mailing a CD that contains fillable forms that taxpayers are to enter data, print and mail to SCDOR. The CD performs simple calculations based on the information entered by the user. In addition, a taxpayer may choose from three electronic filing options: ESales allows taxpayers to submit their sales tax return and payment online through the agency's website; Business Telefile for Sales tax is an interactive voice response system for filing sales tax returns; and Sales Electronic Data Interchange (Sales EDI) is a computer based software targeted towards high dollar filers.
If taxpayers have additional questions they can call the SCDOR at (803) 896-1715 or visit the Department's website at www.sctax.org and click on Electronic Services for more information.

Our penultimate family activity has gone down really well, with grown ups and children really getting into this simple activity. Hundreds of visitors have been very creative with pipecleaners, cards and pegs as these photos show. And even more satisfying is that everyone has gone home with the clear learning message that while pterosaurs were alive at the same time as dinosaurs they were a different species entirely!
For even more photos of all our family activities visit our flickr page
Next week is the activity I'm most looking forward to, designing our own pop art inspired record sleeves. My only fear is that some visitors might not know what a record is so I'll be bringing in a record player and some of my records!

My shoes have never been the same since I started tromping through this muck. That part didn't bother me so much, but I was a little worried that I wouldn't be able to make a hasty escape if something started running after me. I didn't see anything that would start a chase... there was a herd of about 14 elk about 300 meters away. I had never seen them stampede randomly in the direction of a photographer, so I felt kinda good about that. Remember, all of these were just half-fleeting thoughts that were only half-baked... I was mostly just peacefully staring at the sunset and listening to my iPod alone in the wilderness.
This premium photographic print is digitally printed on high gloss Premium Photographic Paper resulting in a unique silver pearlescent finish with stunning visual impact and depth that is suitable for museum or gallery display.

Certain Sleep Aids May Raise Hip Fracture Risk in Nursing Homes: Study
MONDAY, March 4 (HealthDay News) -- Health staff at nursing homes often give patients sleeping pills to help them sleep, but a new study suggests that a certain class of medications may put patients at raised risk for hip fractures.
A team from Harvard Medical School in Boston looked at more than 15,500 long-stay nursing-home residents, aged 50 and older, who suffered a hip fracture between July 2007 and December 2008. The residents' average age was 81.
About 1,700 of the residents had been given a nonbenzodiazepine hypnotic sleep drug before their hip fracture. This class of drugs includes Lunesta, Sonata, Ambien and Intermezzo.
Those who took nonbenzodiazepine hypnotic sleep drugs were about two-thirds more likely to suffer a hip fracture than those who didn't take the drugs, according to the study, published online March 4 in the journal JAMA Internal Medicine.
Although the study found an association between the use of the sleep medications and increased fracture risk, it wasn't designed to prove a cause-and-effect relationship. The risk was somewhat higher among new users of the drugs, as well as nursing-home residents who had mild mental or physical decline (compared to more severe mental- or physical-health issues).
"Caution should be exercised when prescribing sleep medications to nursing-home residents," said Dr. Sarah Berry, of Harvard Medical School, and colleagues.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has more about hip fractures.

The product of 11 years of research, The Story of Philosophy is an endlessly inspiring and instructive chronicle of the world's greatest thinkers, from Socrates to Santayana. Written with exacting and scrupulous scholarship, it was designed both to command the respect of educators and to capture the interest of the layman.
Durant lucidly describes the philosophical systems of such world-famous "monarchs of the mind" as Plato, Aristotle, Francis Bacon, Spinoza, Kant, Voltaire, and Nietzsche. Along with their ideas, he offers their flesh-and-blood biographies, placing their thoughts within their own time and place and elucidating their influence on our modern intellectual heritage. This book is packed with wisdom and wit.
Will Durant (1885-1981) was awarded the Pulitzer Prize and the Presidential Medal of Freedom. He spent over 50 years writing his critically acclaimed 11-volume series The Story of Civilization. A champion of human-rights issues such as social reform and the brotherhood of man long before they were popular, he continues to educate and entertain readers and listeners worldwide through his writings.
©1926 Will Durant (P)2010 Blackstone Audio, Inc.
"A delight." (New York Times)
"Easily the most engaging writer of Western intellectual history in the English language, Will Durant breathes life into philosophers and their ideas. He is colorful, witty, and above all, informative." (Amazon.com review)
Ghost writer of over 100 unpublished works...;).
"Beginners start here! This is the one you want!"
I picked up this audiobook because I wanted to begin studying philosophy and I needed a starting point. I am not disappointed. Durant gave me the direction I was seeking and a lot more.
One of the most valuable things it provides is the context in which each philosopher wrote their philosophy. Durant shows how the time and place of each philosopher affected each work. He also highlights the influence of other philosophers in each work.The great works of philosophy weren't created in a vacuum.
I had never heard of Will Durant but as I listened I got the impression that whoever this guy was he really did his homework. How little did I know! Suffice to say that I believe he is qualified to write such an ambitious work. Look him up on Wikipedia if you are as ignorant as I.
And what a narration! I can't speak highly enough of the way this sometimes difficult work was tackled by Gardner. I don't know how he did it, it's like he wrote the book himself and was conveying his own thoughts on the complicated mind of Kant or Nietzsche.
If you don't know much about philosophy, you really can't go wrong with using this as a starting or reference point. I imagine even those with experience in the field will find Durant's insight beneficial.
I was greatly pleased to find William James included in the discussion, but was disappointed not to find more on Descartes, Hume, Locke, and others.
For reference, from wikipedia:
"Philosophers profiled are, in order: Plato, Aristotle, Francis Bacon, Baruch Spinoza (with a section on Descartes), Voltaire (with a section on Rousseau), Immanuel Kant (with a section on Hegel), Arthur Schopenhauer, Herbert Spencer, and Friedrich Nietzsche." Also Henri Bergson, Benedetto Croce, Bertrand Russell, George Santayana, William James, and John Dewey.
There are books of the same chemical composition as dynamite. The only difference is that a piece of dynamite explodes once, whereas a book explodes a thousand times. ― Yevgeny Zamyatin
"Fantastic and insightful book"
Solid listen and masterly narration! I particularly enjoyed the section on Spinoza.
The SoP gives an overview of the lives and works of the most renowned philosophers, and analyzes their ideas in terms of social, political, religious and psychological contexts.
The book is made up of the following chapters:
1. Plato (as well as analysis of Socrates' life and teaching)
2. Aristotle
3. Francis Bacon
4. Baruch Spinoza (also reference to Descartes)
5. Voltaire
6. Immanuel Kant (a brief look at Locke, Rousseau and a note on Hegel)
7. Arthur Schopenhauer
8. Herbert Spencer (and Darwinism)
9. Friedrich Nietzsche (N. and Wagner)
10. Henri Bergson
11. Benedetto Croce
12. Bertrand Russell
13. George Santayana
14. William James
15. John Dewey
Here's an inspiring quotation from the SoP. 'Every science begins as philosophy and ends as art. It arises in hypothesis and flows into achievement. Philosophy is a hypothetical interpretation of the unknown or of the inexactly known ; it is the front trench in the siege of truth.'
50yrs old / audible member for 5 yrs library. 75% nonfiction, 15% classics and 10% fiction. History/Science/biography/Eng.18th cent fiction
I dont leave home without it. Its the only book that has permanent status on my Ipod. For me its that good. Will Durants amazing writing takes on philosophy, and gets read by Grover Gardner. That somehow creates a transcendent experience for me. Its become a kind of Lynus blanket. I just love it.
Letting the rest of the world go by
"Benefits from because of its 1926 perspective"
After reading this book, I feel like I'm a philosopher. Durant really knows how to engage the reader and make him feel smart. He gives enough biography and then summaries for each philosopher covered. The book really profits from the fact it was originally written in 1926 and I get to experience knowing the history that followed. He's such a good writer that the book stands up regardless of the unfolding history.
"As beautiful as it is informative"
This is an outstanding history of philosophy. The writing is beautiful, even moving, and the narrator marvelous.
Non fiction- science, history,biography,80% classics 10% other fiction 5% misfits 5%
"as good as it gets !!"
take a fascinating topic and match it to a truly unique writer of matchless finesse and warranted worship and this little wonder is what you get.
I've read it twice in a row and know that this is the rarest of books, one that Ill read many times more. Im having a hard time deleting it from my Ipod.. lol . A really rare gem. 5.stars
"Philosophy primer"
I really like Will Durant's writting style. The book was interesting from start to finish. For me this was a great first book about the greater philosophers and provided ideas for further reading. I think Grover Gardner's narration was first rate and added to the listening pleasure.
"Amazing work by Will Durant!"
The rank I gave to this Audiobook is ranking among the highest, for me is a magnificent compression of Philosophical History.
For me the most compelling aspect of the narrative was the objective and factual way that Durant used to create this great compression of Philosophical History.
The performance was also good, well spoken and well emphasized with some dramatization added.
In my case I love History and Philosophy, for me the hole book was a tidbit!

"A treasure to a Superman"
Though bias, the story of philosophy is a very good introduction to a beginner. It is very useful to anybody who wants to extend the basic understanding of how philosopher's ideas helped to shape human civilization. Narration is so good. It feels like I am listening my favorite music.
A fellow listener inclined to share my opinion on these productions. Maybe even inspire someone toward a powerful, or educational audiobook!
"Beginners Guide."
I may wax philosophically once in awhile, but by no means call myself a philosopher. After reading this; what I would describe as an introduction to the giants of philosophy, would be less than ever likely to compare even my most perpending thoughts to those of these great thinkers. Will Durant does a wonderful job at sharing the concepts of these pillars of philosophy, as well as expressing how their ideologies may have effected the societies and cultures of the relative time.
This is a book for people like me, who have heard the names, Friedrich Nietzsche, John Stewart Mill, or Francis Bacon, but understand them vicariously through brief mentionings and opinions of other authors(for me authors not even in this field). I began this book with ignorant curiosity, and finished with a love of the subject. There is so much information here, you must read it more than one time just to take away from it a basal construct of the philosophies tought within. I suggest bookmarking this cover to the hilt, because it reads like a reference book. More than worth the single credit! Have at it fellow Audible fans!
"Motley Bunch of Philosophers!"
These three volumes are a very pleasant easy ride through the philosophies of Plato & Aristotle (in detail), and then Bacon, Spinoza, Voltaire, Schopenhauer, Spencer, Nietzsche and on into 'contemporary' i.e. early 20th century European (Bergson, Croce and Russell) and US philosophers (James & Dewey).
The thing is they are a very odd selection to choose from, and not necessarily the key figures who have shaped Western thinking! However, it is an interesting journey, well told... and well read with authoritative american easiness.
I found myself drifting into a reverie during some bits, and it didn't seem to matter. The book is not a concise set of factoids, but a gentle swim through the enlightenment in some slightly strange company!
"Learn about the greats - a little dry"
This is a great way to learn about the greats
Written before the 2nd world war - but can predict many modern society problems
Voice is dry and writing too equivocal in places - but a classic
"A fantastic contextual development of epistemology"
An excellent work that would serve as both an introduction to some of key themes in Western philosophical thought since the pre-Socratics for the uninitiated or as a consolidation of these key themes to anyone not already an expert in the field. It is not a comprehensive introduction but instead focusses on the development of significant themes. The book works through the historical and political context of the development of epistemological thought and does so (with the justifable exception of Kant!) mostly in the philosophers' own words. What makes the book outstanding is that it deals not only with some of the better known names, such as Plato and Kant, but misses out some of the more obvious names (such as Descartes) to develop their thought through the work of brilliant and often overlooked modern thinkers, such as William James. Excellently read and compelling listening. One of the best summative accounts of philosophy I've come across. If you are at all interested in philosophy you should download this.
"Very good book but the voice is annoying."
My apologies, Grover Gardner, honestly, but please please stop reading audibooks. You sound like a computer program reading out text. It ruined this book for me which, because of your voice, I still have not finished. What I have heard of Durant so far is intelligent, extremely eloquent, very easy to follow and supremely interesting. Hats off to the author, but the voice, oh my god, the voice.
"A classic."
This is a wonderful book; beautifully written and narrated. Not only does the author manage to draw you through the metaphysical mazes that these men dream up (and yes, they're all men) but he also humanises the people, and put their lives into historical and social context. Whether it's the spark and sizzle of Voltaire, or the repulsive (to me, at least) doctrine that Nietzsche espoused, you can't help but empathise with them. Thoroughly enjoyable - if at times quite hard work (Kant comes to mind) - I'd recommend this classic work to anyone attempting to find a way into philosophy.

As a Distinguished Artist-in-Residence at NEC, pianist Russell Sherman offers his insights to students through masterclasses, performance seminars, studio classes, and coachings.
Sherman's studies with Edward Steuermann place him in the grand Busoni/Liszt tradition, and Franz Liszt is one of the core repertoire composers with whom he is associated as a teacher and as a concert and recording artist. In 2008 Sherman released a DVD of Liszt's Transcendental Etudes that captured a live performance from New York's Angel Orensanz Center for the Arts.
Sherman is the first American to record both Beethoven's complete piano sonatas and the five piano concertos. His GM release The Beethoven Piano Concertos: Live at Monadnock features the all-star Monadnock Festival Orchestra.
Russell Sherman made his debut at Town Hall at age 15 and has been acclaimed as a soloist with many major orchestras, including the New York Philharmonic, the Los Angeles Philharmonic, the BSO, the Chicago Symphony, and the Philadelphia Orchestra. He has presented recitals throughout the U.S., Europe, South America, and the former Soviet Union.
Sherman's 1996 book of short essays on piano playing and allied activities, Piano Pieces, is perennially in print in the U.S. and has been published in Korean translation.

The mystery of the lost tribes of Israel reverberates through three millennia of human experience. Of the twelve tribes mentioned in the Bible, only those of Judah and Benjamin survived the Assyrian capture of Israel.
The fate of the other ten tribes has puzzled and provoked scholars and theologians ever since. Throughout the centuries, extraordinary theories have sprung up:
- Medieval Europeans believed that Mongolian invaders were the ten tribes come back for blood.
- Mormon theology holds that the Native Americans are descendants of the lost tribes.
QUEST FOR THE LOST TRIBES documents Emmy®-award winning filmmaker Simcha Jacobovici's ambitious quest to solve the mystery of the lost tribes. Investigating nearly every story, no matter how seemingly far-fetched, the journey leads to Afghanistan, China, India, Tunisia and the Middle East. What is found may well help shed some light on this enduring enigma.
Join us for the chronicle of an adventure that leads to some of the world's most exotic and extraordinary places, exploring the heart and soul of a mystery that echoes throughout human history.
