Very helpful guide
This guide helps manage poor behavior and bad habits that most people have. It covers cigarrette smoking, drinking, excessie shopping, excessive eating, lack of exercise, lack of motivation, social anxiety, etc. Any bad habit can be helped. It also teaches you how to deal with other people's bad habits such as lying, being late, not calling you back, laziness, etc.

Great product! You'll love it!
7 of 9 found this helpful You definitely are getting what you pay for. Simply put, the PSP is an amazing device - it has crystal clear clarity for movies, flash memory for MP3s, and a large assortment of FUN games (as opposed to the DS - but I will touch more on that later). Really, what more could you want?
I don't mean to trash the Nintendo DS ( I have them both), but they clearly are not in same league. This is probably partially by design - the Nintendo DS (Judging by its assortment of games) is designed for kids under the age of 12. With the exception of Super Mario 64 - I have yet to find one game that I enjoy. The PSP already has a much better selection of games, and games that adults actually want to play - notice there is not a "Madagascar" for the PSP. The PSP is designed to be a total entertainment device.
Here are some comparisons and pros and cons-
Graphics-
PSP 5 out of 5 - really they are as good as you could ever expect
DS- 5 out of 5 - maybe a shade worse than the PSP- but still very good
Sound -
PSP - 4 out of 5 Has issues with volume (you almost have to wear the headphones) - but plenty of options for tweaking the set-up
DS - 4 out 5 also a little problem with volume , but not bad
Load TImes
PSP- 2.5 out 5 - clearly this is where the PSP underperforms the DS. The Nintendo DS uses a flash type memory compared to the PSP's optical read. There is a large difference between the two.
DS- 5 out of 5 - The Flash memory is much faster
Games -
PSP- 4 out of 5 - an already large selection and growing by the day. HUGE advantage over the DS
DS- 1.5 out of 5 in my opinion- it only has 1 good game. Supposedely there will be a metroid game released, but I have been waiting for 8 months.
Features-
PSP- Another HUGE advantage over the DS... here is a list of thing you can do on the PSP that you can NOT do on the DS
- Watch/rent movies
- Listen to MP3s off of a flash media card (Much like an ipod)
- view pictures off of your digital camera (or Sony Digital camera at least)
Things you can do on the DS that you can NOT do on the PSP
- draw pictures using a stylus
ADVANTAGE - PSP
Tip: Be VERY careful of the PSP screen not to get it scratched. I can see no easy way of replacing it, and to severely scratch it would be horrible. My advice is (until you can buy the "Real" screen cover) trim a piece of plastic wrap around the screen. The static electricity will cause the plastic wrap to stick and thus protect your screen.
I have purchased an inexpensive case on Ebay for about five bucks. It's made of silicone and completely encases the PSP. Works great and has eased my worried mind!

All short stories and no punch lines
I am currently reading this book, consisting of numerous short stories. The stories are all very deep having underlying meaning and vague. The book itself offers no help or guide. There is no dictionary to help you out with meanings such as style of writing, prose, etc. Basically, you're on your own. Very disappointing text with very disapointing assignments. I plan on posting a bad review about the class in hopes of acquiring a new text.
