Blister with 2 miniatures: Carlota Kowalsky & Moriarty (Combi Rifle + Light FT)

“There are no heroes here, just people who do their job well… and aren’t being paid enough!”

Famous quote of Carlota Kowalsky, recorded during a news report for the Arachne net.

Carlota never thought she would end up in the army. She always thought she would enter the family tradition: space prospecting and EVA work. However, she discovered her mechanical aptitude and paid for her training and improvement classes by repairing her colleagues’ equipment. She was involved in the Base-Arakan litigation, joining the active resistance against the mercenaries of the MagnaObra Company. Captain Zakalwe, of the Intruder Command directing the defense until the arrival of the Phantom Military Force, recommended her for the Nomad army for her efforts. This enabled her to directly enter the Tomcats, the Special Emergency and Rescue Team. After an intense career, her involvement in the resolution of the C-7 diplomatic incident saw her promoted to the rank of Sergeant Major. Her new rank, including the corresponding salary improvement, has been a relief for her ruinous personal finances.

Carlota Kowalsky can be defined as one hell of a Sergeant Major, a sharp genius who won’t tolerate silliness and is more than able to demolish any misogynist stereotype. She is a woman with an extra-planetary look who is used to wearing campaign clothes. She has a face that insinuates intriguing contrasts: narrow and very dark, with sharp features and high cheekbones, fruit of the most genuine Corregidor crossbreeding. However, her facial expression is one usually associated with that of Nomad elite professionals: calm, alert, intelligent and very competent. Despite her attractive appearance, Carlota is one of the boys, and, usually, far better than them. Her comrades and superiors respect her greatly because she is responsible and never shirks when it’s time to work and get her hands dirty. A veteran of several campaigns already, and as lethal as the best holding a weapon, she is the most qualified engineering and maintenance specialist in her unit. The mechanical skills of Carlota are especially useful when fixing Moriarty, the name she gives to each new Zondcat assigned to her when its predecessor is destroyed. Poor Moriarty is in its eighth incarnation so far, and while Carlota remains in active service, it’s not likely to be the last one.

Another Thanks and Wow by Anne Lamott!
Format: Hardcover
I was first introduced to Anne Lamott's writing about 25 years ago when I read her book, Bird by Bird. It was a book about how to write and from that moment she became one of my favorite authors. Help, Thanks, Wow is a wonderful book that I have underlined and reread over and over again. Her writing has a voice that many of us can relate to. It's honest and you can feel her pain. She writes with humor to balance the good with the bad. Something that is so important to learn as we go through life. Her descriptions help you see, feel, and smell when she describes "autumn...the colors are broccoli and flame and fox fur. The tang is apples. The rot smells faintly of grapes..." She tells us how to ask for help when you can't do it all by yourself, but how important it is to say thank you, thank you, thank you and Wow for all the things you are grateful for. I loved when she wrote about how service to others is joy ,but how important it is to be kind to yourself. One of my favorite passages was this one, "This morning at six when I awoke, loneliness was sitting on my chest like a dental X-ray apron, even though I was buried in hairy dog love. Help, I am sad and lonely, and already it looks like today is going to be too long. I prayed...I did a kindness to myself, as I would have a troubled friend..." Her descriptions are all like this one and easy to relate to. I loved this book and have given it to friends who have then bought it for other friends. It is definitely a WOW!!!!

Not bad, but not my cup of tea
Format: Hardcover
After seeing Anne Lamott on TV, I was impressed with her and checked out this book on Amazon. The reviews were good, so I ordered it. I was a bit disappointed on receiving it, as I didn't like the shape of the book (too small) and I didn't like the type style (too hard to read). Then, I struggled to get into the book. I like to highlight insights in inspirational books, and I simply didn't find anything to highlight in this one. I think Anne Lamott is a lovely person and I understand how a lot of people liked this book. However, it just didn't bring any new insights to the table for me and it wasn't written in a way that I found compelling. The good news is, it wasn't too hard to finish, since it is short. I passed it on to someone I hope will enjoy it.

I Just Want to Read It Again!
Format: Hardcover
***** What a brilliant book! When I first received "Help, Thanks, Wow: The Three Essential Prayers" I too was so disappointed that it was such a small book--tiny, short, maybe an hour's read. Ah, but what an hour! Precious. And to be completely truthful, this book actually took me several hours to read, because I had to put it down, think, cry, laugh, and even--yes--pray. This book is worth your time and attention. I am so glad that I have it in hardback because I will keep it forever and reread it regularly; I am finished reading it and I just want to read it all over again. It is a book about getting through life. It is rich, raw, funny (hilarious, like all Annie Lamott) and written in language so stunning I would have to stop and just read and reread sentences. I feel as though my life has been broken open with a whole new attitude towards prayer, and even more, towards being alive. This is not a religious book at all, but a book for anyone who is spiritually-oriented and maybe especially for those who aren't, because the author writes about prayer in a way that every single person can relate to. This is a book about being real and true and simple and clear and about living a worthwhile life. Don't miss this book. Highly recommended. *****

It’s great for the bathroom.
Color: Gold-aa
It’s great. I use it in all my bathrooms. It’s easy to change the paper. It fits on the tank and dresses it up.

Good Product, Fair Price
Color: Gold-aa
I bought this for my guest bathroom where I have some other brass items and it fits right in. Easy assembly with the supplied Allen wrench and bolt, and it comes with a cover for the bolt hole which perfectly matches the base padding material so the assembly point becomes invisible. It doesn’t have a ‘towel unroll preventer’ but I knew that when I evaluated the reasonable sale price and decided that wasn’t important for the intended use. The base is heavy and the assembled item seems very sturdy. I found it weird that this towel holder came with a plastic box containing a fork and a spoon as a ‘gift’ but this will go in my car camping cookware bag. I don’t know how the brass finish will hold up over time but for now I’m very pleased.
