 Well rounded August 8, 2008
D. Joseph (USA)
This mag is comprehensive for a person with many aspects to them...e.g. a little girly-girl beauty tips/product reviews;lots of story bites that will get you to a library/bookstore; practical relationship (not of the skanky variety), financial, life advice etc. The mag is not tabloid-y & ultra superficial like others...it's like Oprah.

 The Oprah Magazine June 10, 2008
Howard Pierce (Montana)
I got a 1 yr sub for my elderly Mother who is an Oprah fan. After 5-6 wks, she received her 1st issue and said the mag had nice glossy pages but only one story to read. The rest of the mag was advertisement. Also, there was strong perfume on almost all pages, which irritated both of my parents. So far, the mag is disappointing.

| Worth Reading | Heartstart Defibrillators - What You Need to Know Before Buying
By Mark Glazer
The Phillips Company manufactures HeartStart defibrillators, one of the AED, or Automatic External Defibrillators. The company produces equipment designed to assist in public safety. Whether it is airbags, fire extinguishers, home security systems, they specialize in devices that protect the average citizen and those they love.
Heart attacks and incidents of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA), account for nearly a quarter of a million deaths in the United States every year. What causes them is not completely understood. Very often, the person will have no history of any kind of heart disease, and a SCA can come at any time, in any place, and disable virtually anyone. HeartStart defibrillators are not only the first defibrillator intended for home use without a doctor's prescription; it is currently the only one available. When you consider that every minute after a heart attack or SCA is vital to the patient's survival, having a device that almost any person can operate increases their chance of living. According to medical experts, the first five minutes after the onset of ventricular fibrillation are critical. If a defibrillator is used within that time period, the patient has the best hope of surviving. However, it has been determined that not even one person in twenty survives a SCA due to the fact that a defibrillator is not available in time.
Automated External Defibrillators are intended for use in offices, restaurants, stores, gyms and countless other locations where medical attention can not be provided in a timely fashion. In the case of HeartStart defibrillators, it has a vocal mechanism that gives very clear and precise instructions in a soft voice that talks a person through every step of its use. The device senses the actions of the user and adapts its instructions based on them. HeartStart defibrillators can quickly decide if a shock even needs to be carried out. If it determines that an electrical jolt is not needed, it can then walk the user through all of the steps of CPR. The machine is powerful and versatile, and a useful weapon in the fight against the ravages of heart disease.
Many smart people have purchased a home defibrillator. Visit AED Defibrillator Information to learn what the Phillips defibrillator has to offer that others don't.
