Dark Matter eLiquid

Enjoy the wonderful flavor of our latest VapeSafe eLiquid - Dark Matter.

Dark Matter tastes like German chocolate cake. For those of you who have not had the fortunate to try a piece German chocolate cake recently, this is a great way to experience the flavor without getting any of the calories. German chocolate cake is a layered cake filled and topped with a coconut-pecan frosting. Traditionally sweet baking chocolate is used for the chocolate flavor in the actual cake. The robust filling and topping is a caramel made with egg yolks and evaporated milk. Once the caramel is cooked, coconut and pecans are stirred into the mixture. Finally, rich chocolate frosting is spread around the sides of the cake to hold in the filling.

Dark Matter eLiquid by VapeSafe captures the essence of German chocolate cake. Dark Matter eLiquid delivers plumes of vapor and rich chocolatey flavor that you'll want to enjoy again and again. Try Dark Matter today!

Word Smart, 4th Edition (Smart Guides)

Description

Knowing which words to use and how to use them is key to communicating accurately and effectively. That’s why more than one million people have used this book to improve their vocabularies.

To find out which words you absolutely need to know, The Princeton Review researched the vocabularies of educated adults by analyzing major newspapers and books and focusing on the words that people misunderstand or misuse. We also examined the SAT and other standardized tests to determine which words are tested most frequently.

All of the entries in Word Smart, 4th Edition are necessary for an impressive vocabulary, and learning and using these words effectively can help you to get better grades, score higher on tests, and communicate more confidently at work.

Summary: "Nice list but"

It's basically a mini dictionary. It does take a lot of dedication to go threw this book. I just finished the book after about 8 months. I actually made flashcards with each word with Anki. It's a spaced repetition that helps schedule the next time you should review. Trust me, without scheduled flashcards programs like this, you will forget a lot of words within a month or two. The key is to keep reviewing the flashcards in the future. This book isn't comprehensive. The publisher has a product that contains 500 GRE flashcards; get that if you want paper flashcards. They have a Word Smart #2 that you can get which should be part of this anyways. Then they have a GRE Word Smart. God damn it, just make one Word Smart book. I have seen lots of the words as I read more. Also, if you don't have one already, get yourself one of the new Kindles for 189 bucks. It has a in-line dictionary that will help you on your quest to learn new words. Unfortunately, The 800 of so words in this book isn't all you need. I think a book with 2000 words would be ideal. Guess I may have to get the other book. Have fun.

Summary: "Simply Fantastic"

I really thought that the authors of this book compiled a list of 1,505 formidable looking words which I would certainly never see again in my life. I was very wrong.

All (yes, all, not almost all) of these words appear in our daily lives, even if it's rare to hear the words used casually. As an AP English student in high school, I noticed that the words in this book frequently appear in the writings of Mark Twain, Emily Dickinson, William Faulkner, and Charles Dickens - and even in contemporary writings, such as those of J.K Rowling. These words commonly appear in major newspapers and magazines such as Sports Illustrated, The New York Times, and The Wall Street Journal, and these words are bound to appear in any professional writing or documents. The authors did their research when they compiled these precise 1,505 words! Anyone who thoroughly reads this book will have a vocabulary to dazzle an interviewer, impress an English teacher, and of course, show off to friends. I believe that after going through these words, you would very seldom find the need to refer to your dictionary to look up an unfamiliar word.

While these words prove beneficial to our daily lives, Word Smart is an ideal choice for those who are still attending high school or college. If your mind is set on memorizing these words (especially helpful for those preparing to take the SAT or other standardized tests), I strongly recommend that you read Harry Lorayne's Page-a-Minute Memory Book, which is actually recommended by the authors of this book in Chapter 1 (using the book, I memorized all of Word Smart in less than two weeks!). Not only will it help you memorize the 1,505 words in this book, but it will also prove exceptionally helpful, inside and outside of your academic career.

I hope my review of this book was helpful. You will not regret this purchase; by the end, you'll want to begin reading Word Smart II!

UPDATE 4/11/2010 -- KINDLE VERSION REVIEW --
I would give the Kindle version of Word Smart two out of five stars. This is not a tirade against the authors of this fantastic resource, but the fact that you have to hit "Next Page" button incessantly to get to the next alphabetical group of words is extremely frustrating!! I recommend to Amazon to add an option inside the Table of Contents that allows the reader to quickly access any alaphabetical group of words ("A", "B", "C", etc.). For the meantime, I'll stick to my hard copy.

Summary: "great book to use to study for the SAT!"

This book has plenty of important words that show up frequently on the SAT. The authors provide good definitions and examples to help you understand them. But reading the book alone won't get you far, its necessary to make flash cards and re memorize the words again and again.

Summary: "Great book"

In high school they used Word Smart as part of the curriculum for SAT prep. At the time we hated it, but now as an adult I'm glad that I saved the book in my parents' closet because I dug it out to use once again as a reference. The book is well-organized, well-written, and a fantastic resource. As a writer I have started studying this book once again, and will probably buy Volume II soon.
