I have previously owned a shar pei before, but when my husband and I started planning on getting a new puppy I thought I would find a good book on shar pei. I bought three books originally but came to find that I like this one the best. Its simple and not very big, but is filled with lots of information. Info ranges from caring for you puppy or adult dog, health concerns, nutrition, obedience training and information about the shar pei breed. I would reccommend this book to anyone who has or is getting a shar pei.

One of the best reads of the year, The Washing Machine details how various banks, politicians, terrorists groups, black market dealers, and others launder illegal money to give the appearance of coming from legitimate enterprises. The author is not shy about naming specific banks, groups, and techniques that have been used and follows the money trail from beginning to end. Some of the companies and groups mentioned include the Bank of New York, the Russian Mafia, Al Qaida, and offshore financial entities in Ireland, Turkey, Sri Lanka and other places. The final chapters deal with what the various countries and law enforcement are doing today to help curb the problem. This is a real education in what goes on in the underworld of illegal activities and how the income gets reintegrated back into business enterprises that appear legitimate. The Washing Machine is a highly recommended read for anyone interested in the financial underworld.

Mr. Kochan explores the movement of money around the world and around communities plagued by drugs. A good read that isn't written in legalese or hard-to-follow language. Very accessible!

This book is, ultimately, a naive and silly approach to a serious subject. I am afraid that the author comes too late to the game and brings too little. Worth a miss.

Is a very cool card. Hope all who get one enjoy it.Got it for my wife and she loves it.

Please bring this size of tote back. I have searched and searched and can not longer find it anyway. It is the best! The larger 15qt is too big for our needs.
