Photo finish Friday: “License”

Inquiring minds want to know where the hunting dogs keep their permit so that it is easily available? Plus, how many dogs can hunt on one permit?

Photo finish Friday: “Flushed with reading”

You need a place to rest your book.

Don't try this with an unabridged dictionary.

Don’t try this with an unabridged dictionary.

Do you live with your novels as you are reading them? Even in the bathroom?

But maybe you have no bookshelf or place to temporarily rest the book. What do you do? Why, the toilet paper dispenser might be your friend.

Not recommended for heavy books or picture books of odd-sized dimensions. But the right book at the right time with the roll of toilet paper at the right diameter, and you have a temporary bookshelf while you await the flush of success.

Amazon Cracks Down on Bogus Reviews

Source: http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2486445,00.asp

Amazon is changing its ratings system, but you probably won’t notice a difference right away.

Amazon will start assigning more weight to recent reviews, as well as reviews that have been written from verified purchasers of a particular product. Amazon will also weigh reviews that have been deemed helpful by other Amazon users. So, be sure to put a bit of thought into your prose on Amazon if you want to meaningfully contribute to a product’s overall score.

The new system, which went live on Friday, will tweak a product’s overall rating using the same criteria. In other words, product rankings are probably going to vary a bit more over time. Previously, scores were an average of all the stars a product’s reviewers had given it.

“It’s just meant to make things that much more useful so people see things and know it reflects the current product experience,” Amazon told CNET.
