God Believes in You
Kim Howard
$7.82

About this product:
Holly Bea's beloved bullmastiff, Buddy, is having a bad day. Left alone to guard the house, he is taunted by the neighborhood cats, who know that he can't touch them. Buddy is worried—will Holly be back soon, or is she gone for the day, or even forever? Much to Buddy's relief, Holly returns. They go to the park, but Buddy's fun is cut short by a pack of hostile squirrels and a team of Dalmatian firedogs who challenge his self-esteem. Will this day ever end? Buddy's day is a metaphor for the doubts and anxieties children face, and a soothing reminder that God will always be there for them.

BOOK
Wildflower Album: Applique & Embroidery Patterns
Bea Oglesby
$14.96

About this product:
The next best thing to a meadow full of wildflowers is a home graced with quilted botanical designs. Choose your favorite wildflower to make a single applique or embroidered block for a pillow, a small wallhanging, or a medallion center for a larger piece. Add sashing and borders to create a variety of quilt sizes. Some blocks, such as Wild Ginger, have as few as 10 pieces; others, like Wild Lupine or Texas Bluebonnet, have as many as 91 pieces. Appliqued blocks can also be embellished with embroidery. Each of the 40 block designs has a full-sized pattern. Color notes for fabric selection, descriptions, and characteristics of each of the flowers from nature are included. AUTHORBIO: Before Bea started quilting in the mid 1980s, she was not familiar with quilting in any form. However, she had a background in home economics. She also studied weaving and oil and watercolor painting, and she earned a certificate from the Sogetsu School of flower arranging. After Bea started quilting, and especially doing applique, she discovered how the painting and flower-arranging media were interchangeable with quilting designs in color and form. REVIEW: Bea Oglesby draws upon her many years of experience and expertise to show how to add sashing and borders to create a variety of quilt sizes. The informative, easy-to-follow text is enhanced with color notes for fabric selections, descriptions and characteristics of each of the flowers modeled from nature. -Reviewers Bookwatch, January 2001

BOOK
J2EE Applications and BEA WebLogic Server (2nd Edition)
Tad Stephens
$9.05

About this product:
For any Java developer working with BEA's popular Java application server, J2EE Applications and BEA WebLogic Server offers a great source of information for doing more with your Java Web applications. Filled with tips on what works and the "best practices" to get more performance and functionality, this book is a virtual must-have for anyone working on this platform.

In theory, it doesn't matter what application server you run for J2EE-compliant applications. This title proves the traditional wisdom wrong. It explores the inner workings of setting up and running Java on BEA WebLogic while providing a solid tour to the Java APIs and standards supported by all J2EE-compliant application servers. Short chapters on standard APIs and "application styles" including servlets and JSPs show off the basics here. Along the way, the authors provide specific practical advice for cooperating with the BEA server product, including nuts-and-bolts configuration advice.

The book's dual focus on introducing key J2EE APIs and how to implement them on BEA is probably best illustrated with its several excellent chapters on Enterprise JavaBeans (EJBs). Not only do the authors introduce key concepts on how to design and code real EJBs, but they deliver numerous tips for choosing the right kind of bean based on the optimizations available in BEA. (For example, they cover the optimized "find" methods available in entity beans, which should be faster than even do-it-yourself code in bean-managed persistence, BMP, components.) This is invaluable information that can let you write code that really flies on the BEA platform.

Other sections look at leading-edge support available in J2EE in message beans, transactions (and JTA), plus other ways to extend the range of your Java BEA applications with e-mail, plus better security (with SSL and built-in Java authentication).

In all, this title makes a strong case that learning the underlying application server platform will let you create better Java applications. This title is a worthy resource for anyone using BEA WebLogic to power their Java applications, whether they are a developer, administrator, or manager. --Richard Dragan

BOOK
For Bea
Kristen Von Kreisler
$1.95

About this product:
A touching and humorous account of the author's fifteen years with her beagle, Bea, a refugee from an animal research laboratory.

Harried by recent upheavals in her life, the last thing Kristin von Kreisler needed was another dog. But when she came upon Bea, a scrawny beagle abandoned by the roadside, she couldn't turn away. Bea became part of her family, and changed it forever.

Disheveled, malnourished, and terrified of human contact, Bea seemed damaged beyond repair. But, gradually, she began to trust von Kreisler. After resisting her touch again and again, the dog one day leaned in and nuzzled her neck. From that moment, Bea began to give love as well as receive it. With the typically unforgettable personality of a beagle, over the next decade and a half she taught von Kreisler the value of living utterly in the present, of meeting each day with a good bark, and of moving forward in life without being dragged down by past grief.

Written with rare eloquence and down-to-earth wit, this memoir of Bea and von Kreisler's fifteen-year love story will charm "beaglers" and touch the heart of anyone who has ever loved a dog.
