Oceanside Dental Tampa, Florida

Nobody likes going to the dentist, period. The offices are often bleak, the waiting room boring, the fees sky-high, and forget about weekend appointments! The truth is, I only go when absolutely necessary--which isn't often enough. 

While visiting a friend in Florida, she told me about the dentist office she uses and how great they are. It had been awhile since my last checkup so I figured I'd give them a try. I'm glad I did!

Oceanside Dental in Tampa, Florida really has their patients' comfort in mind. Not only are they open evenings and weekends, but their prices are truly affordable. 

The wait time isn't very long, but even so they provide free wifi and even an iPad to borrow while you wait. They also offer a free exam and x-rays, and the dentist and staff are so friendly! 

It was above and beyond anything I've experienced in the past. The pain-free procedure surprised me. If more dental offices were like Oceanside Dental, people wouldn't hate  going to the dentist!

The Truth which was Kept from Us: Mysteries of the Past by Klaus E. Berger

I've been a fan of the possibility of aliens having visited Earth's past ever since I read Chariots of the Gods by Erich von Daniken back when I was thirteen years old. With the popularity of the show Ancient Aliens and many authors writing about extraterrestrials and other mysteries of the past, I read and watch everything I can. 

Recently I read Klaus E. Berger's book The Truth Which Was Kept From Us - Mysteries of the Past. I truly enjoyed this author's take on subjects like who the son's of God truly were, if extraterrestrials may have visited the Earth, and other "non-traditional" views of religion. 

The reader needs to be open-minded and allow Mr. Berger's take on these subjects to make you think more deeply and perhaps differently about what you think you already know. 

Some of the information in the book I had read about from other authors, but there's a lot more that this author covers that I'd not read before. I enjoyed his insight, his ponderings, and the fact that he's one of the brave few willing to question Christianity and say that most of Jesus' teachings have been kept secret. Definitely an interesting book!

Thump By Avraham Azrieli

I had the pleasure of reading Thump very recently. I don't often read fiction so try to be choosey in my selection. In a nutshell it's about, "A young and handsome African American, his white female boss, and an explosive sexual harassment trial that threatens to destroy the richest investment firm in Baltimore." Sounds intriguing enough as is, but it's not what you expect it to be. The plot twists, roles are reversed, the future of the characters and big business hangs in the balance. Love, racism, betrayal, privilege and wealth are all woven into one well-written drama with a climatic ending. Once you get into the book you won't want to put it down! I love courtroom dramas, and this is a story that will remain on my virtual bookshelf for years to come!

About The Author:

Avraham Azrieli is a graduate of Columbia University School of Law, who practiced for two decades before turning to full-time writing. He is the author of two non-fiction books (Your Lawyer on a Short Leash and One Step Ahead, which inspired the musical By Wheel and by Wing), and six novels (The Masada Complex, The Jerusalem Inception, The Jerusalem Assassin, Christmas for Joshua, The Mormon Candidate and Thump). He lives in Maryland with his family. www.azrielibooks.com

Thump is available in paperback and e-book everywhere books are sold, including:

"How To Finally Finish Writing Your Book - Once And For All" FREE course by Suzanne Doyle-Ingram

Have people told you that your life is like a soap opera or that you have such great ideas you should write a book? Have you started writing one but just can't seem to get it finished?

Although I now have 30+ books written, years ago I wish I would have had access to Suzanne Doyle-Ingram's Udemy course, "How To Finally Finish Writing Your Book - Once And For All!" Let's face it, the idea of having a finished book is like a dream come true! Imagine the pride and excitement when you can tell your family and friends you've finally finished that book you've been talking about. Imagine putting that finished book up on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and other online bookstores. Imagine actually making some money with your book!

Too many of us never get to that finish line though. I read once that for every published book there are 100 unfinished manuscripts lying around in someone's drawer or on their computer. Why don't more people get their books finished? Suzanne covers it all in her very informative, friendly, and helpful course. She tackles subjects like overcoming self-sabotage and getting out of your own way, the importance of an outline in helping you to stay focused and keep moving forward, how to find the time to work on your book no matter how busy your life is, and much more. This lady knows her stuff! She's written and ghostwritten dozens of books, many of them best-sellers. She's been down the road of uncertainty and wants to help you get your book written.

Her course has 18 lectures that will give you the energy, optimism, and confidence to become an author. Best of all, Suzanne has given me a code to pass out to my readers so you can take her normally $97 course for free! This is a very limited offer, so please take advantage of this helpful course. I make no money from you taking the course, I simply believe there's a writer in all of us just waiting to get out.

Here's the code to get your FREE course:

https://www.udemy.com/how-to-finally-finish-writing-your-book/?couponCode=Kellydeal

Take her course, interact with the other students, let her know how you liked her lectures and if they give you the incentive and guidance you've needed, ask Suzanne questions and she'll answer. Don't leave your potential book buried in your brain or your computer--finally get that book written!

The Solitary Man by Ron Foster - Prepper Series

I've read all of Ron Foster's books and eagerly await the next. I like the fact that he takes a fictional story and weaves it in with survival skills. I'm an avid prepper (currently looking for several acres of my own) and have just about every prepper, homesteading, and self-sufficiency book ever written. Many of them can be dry, boring, or "just the facts, ma'am." 

Instead, what Mr. Foster gives us is an array of characters in his books who could be people just like us, trying to prepare and/or survive a breakdown of society. He shows you what his characters do so you can do it too. Whether it's solar flares, an economic collapse, or zombies, by reading each one of the author's books you'll not only be entertained, but prepared. 

His latest book The Solitary Man is a must-have if you're a prepper, but want some story to go along with your survival pointers.

Driving Towards Disaster: Survival of the Best Prepared by Ron Foster

I'm always eager to read Ron Foster's latest book. Not only do his books keep you entertained, but you learn so much about survival techniques as well. It's always like a two-for-one deal with this author's books. I have to admit that this book scared me more than the others. Why? Because of the pandemic (among other catastrophes). To me, this is very plausible and possible. If we look throughout history we see that illnesses have spread wild and wiped out a great number of people. The Black Death that swept through Europe in the 14th century, the Spanish Flu in 1918 that killed more than 20 million people worldwide... The truth is, pandemics do occur and if you aren't prepared you'll simply become a victim.

In Driving Towards Disaster; Survival of the Best Prepared we get to see the situation through the eyes of an emergency responder. Imagine having the task of helping out yet trying to survive as well? Mix the pandemic in with a major hurricane and all hell is breaking loose in this book! But...as with each of Ron Foster's books, there is hope at the core of them. The main message is to be prepared (or perish).

From Dinosaur to Dynamite, the Secret of Joyful Sex by Patricia Murray-Chute

Too many women aren't enjoying sex. How sad is that? Something so natural, so freeing, and feels so darn good is seen by a huge percentage of ladies as alien or out of reach. The older we get, the more foreign the words "great sex" seem us. So what's the problem and how can you fix it? In From Dinosaur to Dynamite, the Secret of Joyful Sex, author Patricia Murray-Chute tackles the varied reasons why women aren't having fun in the bedroom. She holds nothing back as she bares her own soul and experiences, while offering the reader solid and helpful methods to get out of her own way and finally enjoy sex. 

Some of the subjects she covers are eating (with delicious recipes from Golden Door Health) and exercising to help you feel sexier and healthier, the importance of communication in a relationship (no, he can't read your mind!), personal growth together, overcoming obstacles, and so much more. Patricia is a life coach, so she knows her stuff! Some strategies covered in the book come from NLP, the Law of Attraction, honesty and common sense. She helps the reader get to the core of the problem to discover why she isn't having wonderful sexual experiences and how to overcome it. 

In the author's own words: "I want mature people to realise they can still enjoy a wonderful sex life. The younger generation always think they invented sex and that after 40 years or so you just forget it ever existed. I can say with authority and joy that they are wrong and experience is key to enjoyment and sexual fulfillment. After many years of nursing and midwifery, I have listened to women in the three countries where I have lived, tell me their woes and worries about a decline in desire and enjoyment of the physical side of their relationship and I have written this with them in mind."

I highly recommend this book to any woman who wants to have dynamite sex, no matter her age. Even men can learn a thing or two from reading it! You can find her book here.

Driving Toward Disaster: The Story Thus Far by Ron Foster - Review

I often think about how a pandemic would affect everyday life. If it got really bad it makes you wonder if you'd rather be one who succumbed to the disease or survived it yet had to live in a world of chaos and martial law. In Driving Towards Disaster: The Story Thus Far Ron Foster paints a very realistic picture of what would happen if the U.S. was faced with a pandemic and, to make matters worse, a deadly hurricane! What makes Ron Foster's book different from other "worst case scenario" or survival books like this is that it's from the viewpoint of a responder. Imagine having to be the one to be a first responder to such utter devastation. Yet through it all the author gives us hope and tosses in a satisfying amount of wit as well. As with all of Mr. Foster's books the reader will also learn a whole lot about survival.

A Prepper Prepares For Christmas by Ron Foster Review

The Preppers are back and preparing for a long winter...and Christmas. Wow, I can't imagine what the holidays would be like if we got to a point of "the end of the world as we know it." Christmas is usually a time of joy, gluttony, gifts, friends, and family. But what would you do if the carpet was pulled out from under you and nothing was the same? The Preppers have a hard enough time surviving during the warmer months (though they always manage to pull through) so how will they survive the bitter cold? Not only do they find ways to feed themselves and stay warm and safe, but A Prepper Prepares For Christmas:The Prepper Saga volume 2 is a message to us all. We should focus on what truly matters--those we care about and life in general. It's not how much you have but how much you give. This particular volume in the Prepper series left me feeling philosophical and I truly enjoy what I have in my life much more!

The Prepper Road Saga: Our End Of The Lake Revisited by Ron Foster

Since I've begun reading Ron Foster's Preppers series, I haven't looked at life the same way since. What used to be seen as "must-haves" in my life are now viewed as only perks to living a relatively low-stress life. I can live without them if need be. What used to be seen as junk or trash, is now viewed with the eye of a prepper. Someone who fully intends to survive if there's ever a global catastrophe or breakdown of society. It's like adopting a MacGyver attitude. Plastic bags, cans, tubes, tarps, and other things we often toss out in the garbage can actually come in handy when you're trying to survive.

This book not only covers more methods of how to find food, water, shelter and protection during a worldwide cataclysm, but we get to meet the characters up close and personal. As with all of the author's books, he combines humor, adventure, and helpful hints. As a lover of nonfiction books, I find it to be a perfect blend. So what's the author trying to get across in the Prepper series? That as long as you're alive there's hope, so never, ever give up!

The Light In The Lake (Prepper Trilogies) by Ron Foster Review

Now that the survivors have found shelter you'd think they could relax a bit, but that wouldn't be wise. There are others who'd love to force them out of their cabins and steal their food and ammo. The bottom line is, when there's a breakdown of society you never let your guard down. Only the strong survive!

In this installment of the Prepper Trilogies we still get loads of survival information mingled in with a nice storyline that's often humorous. Yes, even if you're spending your days and nights merely trying to survive, you've got to keep your sense of humor! Can these preppers not only survive, but thrive and build a new society? Will it be anything like that of the past or something brand new? I was satisfied with the results and enjoy the vision of this author. Hey, it "could" be our future too! Ron Foster's books will teach you a thing or two so you'll be well ahead of the rest.

Bug Out! Preppers On The Move!: Bug Out To Live and Eat After EMP by Ron Foster

Another wonderful book by Ron Foster! What I enjoy about his books is that he shows you, through an interesting story line and engaging characters, how to survive and thrive if "the grid" was no longer. 

Think about how many things you take for granted each day, from cell phones, computers, and TV to refrigerators and ATM machines. What would you do if there was no electricity? If society started crumbling around you? What would you eat and how would you protect yourself? Where would you go? 

These questions and many more are answered in BUG OUT! Preppers on the move!: Bug out to live and eat after EMP. In this installment of the Preppers trilogy we get to see life on the move after technology is wiped out due to solar storms. It's a great way to learn solid survival techniques that just may come in handy some day. I'm prepared...are you?

Preppers Road March by Ron Foster Review

I love stories like this since I'm a prepper too. Or, as I call myself, "a laid-back survivalist." I grew up loving stories like Julie of the Wolves, Hatchet, Robinson Crusoe, and Swiss Family Robinson. What I enjoyed about Preppers Road March (Prepper Trilogy. is that it's got a good story with funny characters and solid prepping information and diagrams in the book. We get to travel along with David and see how he survives during a societal breakdown and ultimately finds his way back home. I found myself holding my breath more than once hoping his survivalist skills would see him through. I can't wait to read the others in the series. Not only am I being entertained, but I'm learning things too!

Free Vistaprint Business Cards Review


Image representing Vistaprint as depicted in C...Image via CrunchBaseRecently I got an email from Vistaprint to get 250 business cards for free. I needed some new cards for my writing business so I figured I couldn't lose with this deal. Now, the cards aren't totally free. I had to pay about $5 for shipping and handling, which isn't bad. They have hundreds of templates to choose from and they cover a wide variety of business types; everything from landscaping and dentistry to massage therapy and childcare. 

Their system is easy to use. Just choose the template you like and on the following screen you type in your information. It will show up on the template so you can see exactly what it will look like. After you have your card the way you like it you give it the okay and then go through several screens of special offers. I opted out of them all--I just wanted my free business cards. 

About two weeks later they came in the mail. Here's what I did and didn't like about the Vistaprint free business cards:

Although the font looked really good on my computer screen, it was far too small when I got to see the cards in person. From now on I'll go to their screen that allows you to manipulate the text and fonts and make the writing bigger.

The free cards only came in matte finish and I didn't like how "washed out" they looked. It made them look very cheap too, like something I could print from my computer at home. If I opted for the glossy finish it would have been $10 more.

Every card has a white line down one side. I'm assuming it's from where the machine cut the cards. 

"Vistaprint" is printed on the back. If I wanted a blank back it would have been more money.

Aside from these factors, for free business cards they were decent. However, I would definitely pay for the glossy next time. I probably won't use these cards since I need something more professional looking, but many people may find them suitable. 

I often see specials where they offer the better business cards for $10 which include the glossy finish and a blank back. I'll wait until they're offering this again and get the nicer cards.

Dell Inspiron Netbook Review

Since I work from home all of my business is done on the computer. I prefer a netbook over a desktop PC or even a full sized laptop since I travel a lot and hate lugging around a bulky laptop. For a few years I had an HP Mini 1030 but it only had 15GB of memory. I found myself juggling files constantly and buying memory cards and flash drives to store the extra information. About two months ago I decided to buy a refurbished Dell Inspiron Mini 1012. It definitely has it's good points and a bad point. 

What I like about the Dell Inspiron Netbook:

~It's a lot sturdier than the HP Mini I had. The keys are thicker and very tight and don't seem like they're going to fall off at any minute. (That's one problem I had with my HP) It's a bit heavier than the HP but that's okay. It seems like it's much better made than the other mini computer I had.

~It has 250GB of memory. Yay! No more juggling files around.

~The battery life is phenomenal. I've used it several times for over 6 hours and the battery still had 2 hours left on it.

~The screen is very clear and sharp. With the HP it seemed a bit "dull."
 
~It plays most games pretty well. I tend to purchase games from Big Fish Games or Popcap Games and none of these are too intense. Nothing like World of Warcraft or Call of Duty.
 
~The sound quality is average for a mini computer. When you plug in headphones though it's really good. On the HP it sounded awful no matter what.
 
~It comes with Windows 7 Starter edition which is fine for my needs. I noticed that the Wordpad program is even updated to where it works almost like a regular word processing program. On the HP is was very primitive. 
 
~When I loaded my music onto the Dell it shows all the album covers. That's a nice little addition and something I didn't have with the HP.

~When I open and close the lid it feels good and tight. With the HP mini I had to constantly tighten the hinge screws since they'd come loose in less than a week.

My only complaint: 

~It doesn't connect to the internet via wifi very well. Actually, it's quite frustrating. The HP mini stayed connected fine and was pretty fast. With the Dell Inspiron Mini I'll get "not responding" many times during the day. I'm talking about several times each hour. This is something that really drives me insane though I enjoy all the other features so much that I try to be forgiving. If you have any suggestions on how I can speed it up or get it to connect better please let me know.  It's so bad I thought I might have a virus or Trojan but I ran a few good adware/spyware/anti-virus programs and it came out clean.

Should you buy the Dell Inspiron mini 1012?

If you want to browse the internet quickly or play games with a lot of action then this probably isn't the computer for you. Plants vs. Zombies does well, but games with higher level graphics are very slow or don't run at all. However, if you play smaller games like I do, are a student or writer or blogger, of don't need a computer that's very fast or does too many fancy things, then this is definitely a fabulous small computer to get. Best of all, I bought both the HP and the Dell refurbished from a seller on Amazon.com and I paid the same for them, less than $250 including S&H. In my opinion, I got a much, much better deal with the Dell mini!

Fast Zombies With Guns Review

I've seen just about every movie ever made that has to do with zombies. From George A Romero's Night of the Living Dead, to 28 Days Later (not a true zombie film), and Tokyo Zombie (the only zombie film I couldn't sit through.) Fast Zombies With Guns is just plain fun. What would you do if the world was not only overrun with zombies, but fast ones, and they carry guns?! I'd say we wouldn't stand a snowball's chance in hell. This is a great zombie movie with a twist, and just as gory as any other. Definitely add this to your zombie collection!

Almost Invisible: The Party's Over When You're Dead Review

This movie reminded me a bit of Scream and Carrie...and a mixed bag of other teen-party-gone-enormously-wrong films. This low budget movie has everything in it, from the social outcast and popular kids, to naked girls and a creepy house holding them hostage. At the center of all the screaming and mayhem is the strained romance between two of the characters. I really would have liked to have seen more of this. Maybe there will be an Almost Invisible 2. Throughout the movie you wonder what the heck happens to some of these kids. Are they dead, alive, hiding, or what? It all makes sense in the end. There was enough gore and plot twists to keep me well entertained.

Death Angel December: Vengeance Kill Review

I've always loved revenge and vigilante movies. I grew up watching Charles Bronson, Carrie, Mad Max, and just about every martial arts movie. Most revenge films have a male lead, but in Death Angel December it's a feisty and sexy woman. In the movie this girl watches her family brutally attacked and killed. This would mess with anyone's head! Instead of going in for counseling though, she decides to become an assassin when she grows up. Revenge is the only thing on her mind and she doesn't disappoint when she finds the scum bags that killed her family. The ending is both outrageous and satisfying. Who wouldn't want to be able to single-handedly kill off a small army of men?!    

House of Sin Review

This movie reminded me of an erotic and less gory version of Hostile. Remember that movie where the wealthy could act out any fantasy they had? Those fantasies seemed to revolve around torture and murder, while in House of Sin sex is on the menu--and there's a huge variety! Why do I love Philip Gardiner films? He's living a dream, that's why. He has the ambition to follow what intrigues him and makes films from them. It's also interesting to see him "grow" over the years. His films get better, tighter, and more intriguing. I'm always wondering what he'll come up with next. House of Sin didn't disappoint me. There's enough eroticism without downright porn. It's eerie and weird, without making your stomach churn (which I felt while watching Hostile!) What would you do if you entered a house like this? What fantasies do you keep locked up? Or would it shock and disgust you to enter this home?
