Onion World

Not even sure how to criticize such a magazine, except that it's most definitely geared towards the large onion producer. In fact, it's a testament to the strength and diversity of American farming that such a magazine exists.

Brigitte Woman

This is a great magazine.

Long time ago, when I still lived in Germany, I read "Brigette", which is the same only for younger people.

I asked my brother to send me a copy and he included "Brigette Woman", I did not even know that that was available.

I thouroughly enjoyed reading it, finding out what goes on in Germany while being able to sharpen my German reading skills.

So, anyone wanting that experience, I highly recommend this magazine, even though it took quite some time before the subscription started arriving here.

This magazine had more ads than content. If print magazines are to survive they must be worth their price. thanks

New York Daily News - City ed - Daily & Sunday

Nabakov would not read the NY Times which he thought intellectual pretentiousness . Instead he loved the 'New York Daily News' with its yellow -page screaming scandalous cheap headlines.

I remember the Daily News in the old days when its competition was the 'Daily Mirror' which we preferred. Grantland Rice among others wrote for the 'Mirror'.

I look at the 'Daily News ' occasionallyin great part because of its hard-hitting patriotic American political line. I also like because it is very proIsrael.

Enjoy it nostagically with coffee and a doughnut at the Automat or Chockfull-oNuts.

Christianity Today

"Christianity Today" is much like "Time Magazine." Founded in part by Billy Graham and Carl Henry, its basis is evangelical. However, as the Christian world is farther reaching than evangelicalism, so reaches "Christianity Today." CT remains steady and solid in its views, and helps educates the well-read Christian.

Mixing pop-news, hard-hitting issues, and intriguing features, CT manages to cover and assess the present state of Christianity. With a core of intelligent thinkers, and seasoned journalists, CT has been the leader in Christian journalism, and sets the pace for its peers.

Articles are often passed around Sunday School and CCD classes to educate the layman what is going on in the modern Christian life, helping connect the year 33 AD with 2002 AD.

Though coming from a protestant slant, Catholics and Orthodox Christians would be well-served to explore this magazine, as the movements of world Christianity are followed and reported. For example, they have done a great job reporting and analyzing the issues surrounding the Irish Catholic-Protestant conflict, separating the socio-political from the religious points of view.

A great buy. I fully recommend "Christianity Today."

For a general-purpose Christian magazine, its hard to go wrong with Christianity Today. It has a little bit of everything that touches the Christian world, whether news, theology, morality, or the devotional life. Editorials and articles are well thought-out and presented in a very intellectually engaging manner. In a couple of issues that followed the 09/11 tragedy, the magazine dealt with questions that were on the minds of many: Is Islam a religion of peace? and Is the God of Mohammad the same God as the God of Jesus Christ? The articles on those questions really nailed the issue for me. Also recently there have been ongoing discussions of Openness Theology which have been helpful. The alternating columns by Philip Yancey and Chuck Colson are worth the price of the magazine. One area that could stand some expansion is the reviews section, particularly book reviews. Besides that, its hard to find fault with this magazine.

I have read CT for years, and appreciate its ability to report on the broad Christian world, as well as current events, from an evangelical perspective that informs believers, and offers credible material for those who want to know what we think. The blend of church news, world news, culture, and theological discussion is amazing. While covering controversies within denominations and movements, CT also helps bring the broad evangelical movement together through its explication and analysis.

Some reviewers complain that CT promotes a prosperity gospel, denominational strife, or other such unbalanced views. Such mistaken views come from reading one article, or one or two issues. Magazines sometimes write interview articles on individual thinkers, and what comes across should be seen as a report of the subject's perspective, not an editorial endorsement by the interviewer. CT instructs the church, by allowing us to see what others are saying. It does so with crisp, concise and thoughtful style.

Bottom-line: Evangelicals will learn much about the world and themselves from this publication. Those interesting in knowing the thoughts, struggles and issues within evangelicalism will find Christianity Today a good starting place.

Read Best Reviews of Christianity Today Here

Christianity Today offers interviews of major thinkers, performers, and newsmakers, with special emphasis on how they relate to the evangelical church world. Their in-house writing is mainstream evangelical, and when it comes to controversy within the movement, the writers are "painfully middle of the road." Nevertheless, since those in the middle usually get shot at from both sides, the CT garners its share of criticism from fundamentalists, liberals, and those with stark views on such subjects as sex, drugs, music, national politics, and international relations (especially regarding the Middle East).

CT is intelligent, broad, and a great starting place for anyone wishing to understand the worldview of one of the most rapidly growing segments of "Christianity Today."

I love the scope of Christianity Today. It's the single most anticipated magazine in my household (and I subscribe to MANY). Why? Because I like knowing what's happening in the Body globally, and what issues are impacting the church here and abroad, such as new cults, persecution, movements, government changes, emerging doctrines, changes in leadership, etc.

There is always at least one article that challenges me to be a better believer, and there is always one or more issues that I add to my prayer list--be it a particular town's sufferings or a particular person's persecution or a ministry aiding girls bound in sexual slavery or a ministry seeking to free slaves, etc. And I enjoy the yearly selection of best books in particular categories.

The columns are terrific, and the round-up of quotes on particular topics (forgiveness, Easter, resurrection, prayer, death, etc) is always worth rereading or tucking into a binder for future readings.

If you're a part of the church, this magazine is a great montly overview of events, important persons, emerging movements, and national stories of interest. It's worth subscribing to.

(PS: I have no idea what the brief review by Anne Freeman is referring to, but something doesn't sound right. I've subscribed to CT for many years, and you always have a term for which you renew: one year, two years, etc. Once your subscription term nears its completion, they send you a note suggesting you renew. You don't have to renew. I'm assuming the opt-outs are for those persons who are on a trial basis--ie, you get a free trial issue to see if you want it--where you're told that you must return an invoice saying "cancel" or they will continue the sub and you will be billed. In that case, part of trying out the magazine is agreeing to those terms--you try, and then you pay or you opt-out with notification of cancellation. If you don't tell them to cancel and keep receiving the magazines without paying, then, well, that's theft in my book. You're taking what you have not paid for and don't intend to pay for.

But if you have a regular subscripton, it runs its term and no more--as it should. A subscription is an agreement: I want this many issues for which I pay you the amount you state for that term. And if you want to cancel early, you write or email or call and say, 'I want to cancel. Send me a refund of what's due." That's standard op for magazines, and I should know: I have subscribed to dozens over the last 20 years, including CT and a sister magazine Christian History. I tried CH for a time, didn't renew, and it expired. I got no hassles. I didn't have to send a letter. I simply let it expire when the year was up.

As in all things: Read the agreements, read the terms, and abide by them.)

CT, the magazine: Highly Recommended.

EDITED ON March 20th to ADD: I contacted Christianity Today to inquire about the accusation leveled in the review by Anne Freeman. They assured me my subscription was not on auto-renew, and they added this:

~~As for the posting at Amazon, sometimes customers sign on for the free

trial issues and never respond to the invoices. We do require a

cancelation notification either by phone or mail. These accounts get

sent to our collection department after certain time period, however it

is an in-house collections. We do not report to credit bureaus and it

does not affect credit scores.

Hope this eases your mind!~~

So, again: Always know what kind of sub you have and the terms. And, as such, be at ease in ordering this magazine. ~~Mir

Arizona Wildlife Views (1-year auto-renewal)

We love wildlife and want to know what kind they have here in AZ. Very informative, his aunt apparently subscribe to the same magazine.

It was June 2003 and I had a friend over to the house, that I had met in Payson AZ. at the Houston Mesa Horse Camp Campground in 2001. A conversation came up about applying for the Arizona Hunt Draw. Immediately my friend, Gordon Halloway's eyes lit up. "Hey" he exclaimed " Do you think a bird like me would have a chance at an elk tag?" Let's take a look at the regulations" I replied. Gordon had worked as a union electrician and a arborust when, unfortunatly he had an accident and fell out of a tree breaking his back. As a result he is permanently handicapped and has extreme limited use of his legs. We were reviewing the elk hunt options when we we came across The Champ Hunt for handicapped hunters. I recommended that he apply for this hunt. We went down to the local Arizona Game and Fish office in Flagstaff AZ. The counter staff was very helpful in supplying us with the proper information and paperwork, in order to apply for this type of hunt. Gordon promptly submitted his application to his doctor for approval at the Tucson VA hospital. His doctor gladly filled out the paperwork and encouraged him to get out and do these types of activities. This was Gordon's first attempt at an Arizona Big Game Permit, and as beginners luck would have it he was draw for the Champ Elk Hunt with only 10 permits available. Gordon celebrated his 63rd birthday at my house this summer, and he often talks excititly of this very special hunt. Gordon has a special interest in firearms history, and felt it only proper that he purchase a rifle in the historical 45-70 caliber. Gordon will HAND LOAD his Ruger #1 in an all lead 450 grain bullet, at camp, as our forefathers did in the days of the buffalo hunts. He is spending many hours at the shooting bench to make sure of his accuracy, out of respect for the animal. This will be the hunt of a lifetime for this man, and I am doing all that I can do to help insure it goes off without a hitch. I will be providing a 14 X 16 canvas wall tent to add to the comfort and authenticity of the hunt. I know that this will be a safe and sucessful hunt due to the preparation. Special thanks to the Arizona Game and Fish for makeing this hunt possible for our handicapped citizens.For more information contact me at 928-856-0821.
