Sierra Club 2008 Wilderness Calendar by: Sierra Club publisher: Harmony released: 2007-07-24 ISBN: 140008167X $12.95

Every year I purchase this calendar, hang it in my cube and hear the many compliments. The shots are gorgeous and afterwards, their generous size and excellent quality are easily frame-worthy. I recommend it for the person who likes to look over once in a while and visualize themselves to a calming, secluded area in North America that they may never get to visit (and may not be the same if I do). Support a good cause and appreciate the vast areas of nature at her finest.

fantastic calendar, got it for a gift for someone and was tempted to keep it myself.

We buy these every year not only to give as gifts to our family but because we want to support the Sierra Club in its efforts to save our world ecology. I didn't find the pictures as inspiring this year but they're still beautiful. And our friends and family always appreciate them.

Received very quickly and the product looks beautiful. This is for a gift and I am excited to give it. Thanks

I purchase this calendar for my office every year. This nature scene calendar always has high quality photography. I recommend this calendar to any nature lover or any one who likes to bring a bit of nature indoors.

2008 George W. Bush Out of Office Countdown Boxed Calendar by: Sierra Club publisher: Calendars released: 2007-04-30 ISBN: 1402209819 $11.99

Bush Out of Office Countdown Desk Calendar: He's doing a heck of a job, but hang in there...it's almost over! Much of the nation has been counting the days since the first inauguration of the president who said, If this were a dictatorship, it'd be a heck of a lot easier, just so long as I'm the dictator. Count down the days while enjoying: the best of Bush bloopers and blunders, the indictments, scandals, embarrassments and audacity of the president's advisors, admirers (think Harriet), cronies, appointees (see cronies) and strange bedfellows.

While the daily quotes are highly amusing at first glance, when I consider the source I don't know how he got there (hanging chads perhaps?) and I can only hope we survive until... and beyond!

This is great calender to commerate the end of the Bush Presidency. Many people know Bush has said and done stupid things but you get direct quotes of pure stupidity. It's hard to believe he actually said some of the things contained in the calender. This product will keep you laughing all the way into the next presidency.

We wonder where they got the fabulous quotations of our inimitable Prez. Very funny calendar. The count down cheers us up too.

This is so funny with a quote from Bush, his aides or actions for each day counting down to his last day as President. At the same time it is frightening - is he really so stupid? How did he get to be president of the most powerful nation in the world!

Bought as a gift for xmas.... Grandma loved it and I think the rest of the family went to get their own! Was a hit!

Inner Reflections 2008 Engagement Calendar by: Yogananda Paramahansa publisher: Self-Realization Fellowship released: 2007-08-01 ISBN: 0876124910 $12.95

Inner Reflections has gained a reputation as one of the most stunning and beautiful Inspirational Engagement Calendars available. Inspiring quotations from Paramahansa Yogananda are magically blended with images from the world's top nature photographers. Moon phases, national & international holidays included. New for 2008 are 12 month-at-a-glance and journal pages.

I got my first Inner Reflections calendar many years ago, as a gift from my brother-in-law. He gave me one each Christmas...until my sister divorced him (oh no!). After that, it was up to me to get my own. I order one every year and have it sitting on my desk where I can look at it often. The pictures are always stunningly beautiful, the quotes incredibly insightful. Of all the desk calendars I've ever seen, this is my very favorite. Paramahansa Yogananda was a lovely spirit who had much to share. You won't be disappointed with these calendars.

This daily planner is one of the great examples of happy marriage between style and subject. It is esthetically appealing (every week is accompanied by a captivating image that literally takes you on a magical journey into the nature), well organized, and above inspirational (the weekly nature images are accompanied by well-chosen quotes that encourage self-reflection without being "moralizing"). The only drawback, I can mention is the scarcity of writing space allotted to each day of the week. My preference would be to have one page per day for planning purposes. Still, this is one of the best daily planners I have ever owned!

I should have sent this back immediately. I was expecting a spiritual calendar with sayings and insights like I hear during yoga class. Instead, it's full of references to God. To me, spiritual is different than religious. I expected spiritual, I got religious. Not what I wanted nor expected!

Since I have found the Calender the first time I need it every year again. I am German and I started with the German Edition now I prefer the English one and sometimes I buy the calendar in both languages.
My spirit and spiritual life is growing and I am looking forward to all the magical thoughts the calendar will bring into my life.
Words and pictures of what we can see are important to find the right parth. Thank you.

For years I have either been given this desk calendar as a gift, or purchased it myself. It is the only calendar I ask for, and look forward to each year. I absolutely love it. An inspirational and amazing photo is presented each week, along with a quote from Paramahansa Yogananda to uplift the soul. Beautiful, inspiring, and highly recommended.

Hello Kitty Hello 2008! Wall Calendar (Hello Kitty) by: Higashi Glaser publisher: Harry N. Abrams, Inc. released: 2007-08-01 ISBN: 0810988534 $12.95

Ring in the New Year with the best of friends! Hello Kitty and her sweet friends enjoy another year of fun.

Great for any Hello Kitty Fan. Nice size calendar. Frameable prints. Bought for my friend for her birthday. She loves it.

The calendar was beautifully done. This year it has the birth dates for all of Sanrio's characters, however the amount of stickers that come with the calendar were considerably reduced.

I've been collecting Hello Kitty things since I was a little girl. This calendar is a fun decoration to have in my classroom. My students all know how much I love her. Some of the situations in which they put her are a little odd however.

This is a beautiful calender and I have no complaints. Less stickers then previous years but the ones that do come with it are so cute that I don't mind. I have three of these calenders from different years hanging up in my daughters room next to each other. It looks very cute having each display the same month. I would say this one is a little more glamorous then previous years.

I love Hello Kitty, and I love the calendars, but this one is byfar the worse one that I've had. It just wasnt as cute as the others, nor did it have the same amount of stickers...HOWEVER, you can't go wrong with Hello Kitty. :)

Audubon Engagement Calendar 2008 by: National Audubon Society publisher: Workman Publishing Company released: 2007-06-30 ISBN: 1579653278 $12.99

Audubon Engagement Calendar celebrates the vast natural world in panoramic landscapes, intimate glimpses, and moments of singular beauty. A Great Egret displaying its elegant plumage; sunlight streaming through a grove of Quaking Aspens; a thick school of Blue and Gold Fusilier fish off the Fiji coast. Accompanying the photographs are detailed captions and spacious weekly grids.

I love my calendar. Its full of beautiful pictures. It displays a full week per page and gives me plenty of room to write in both work and personal engagements. I also love that its flexible and the size is small enough to fit in my purse, yet not so small as to make reading and writing in it difficult.

I ordered this beautiful calendar on January 2 and was just informed that it won't be shipped until possibly February. There was no mention of a delay or availability issues when I ordered it. Amazon should provide better service and information for its customers.

Wonderful way to keep organized. The pictures are a combination of grand landscapes and almost intimate views of nature

Every year I look at different desk calendars, and always end up buying the Audubon one. The photography is absolutely outstanding.

RECIEVED CALENDAR WITHIN A WEEK OF OREDER.

NEW CALENDAR IN EXCELLENT SHAPE

William Wegman Puppies 2008 Wall Calendar by: William Wegman publisher: Harry N. Abrams, Inc. released: 2007-08-01 ISBN: 0810988577 $6.29

Cuddly, adorable, and available only from Abrams, William Wegman’s sweet puppies make this calendar as irresistible as ever.

As usual I had to buy one of Wegman's calendars. Those dogs are so handsome and the puppies are adorable. I actually buy this for a friend who has one of these wonderful dogs and he likes the calendar too.

Wonderful calendar, I've been hanging them on my wall's for years!! The was incredible. I received the calendar in two days !! Thank you.

I really like the calendar and the photos are great.
However, the company shipped the calendar in a manila paper envelop, this cause the the corners of the calendar got badly damaged.

At the end you get a bittersweet feeling because you like the photos and the calendar format but it's really annoying to have its corners damaged, especially because they are charging you shipping and handling.

Have bought both Wegman calendars every year for many years. Always charming and bring a smile to everyone.

I love these Calendars and will buy them as long as they are available. They cheer up my day to look at them and I receive many comments from others who come into my office.

Greenpeace: Standing Up for the Earth Calendar 2008 by: Greenpeace publisher: Workman Publishing Company released: 2007-06-30 ISBN: 076114563X $11.99

With a presence in over 40 countries and 2.8 million supporters worldwide, Greenpeace is synonymous with peaceful environmental activism. For 2008, the Greenpeace calendar returns with a year of breathtaking vistas, jewel-like seascapes, and faces from the most remote reaches of the wilderness. A magnificent jaguar in a sun-dappled Mexican forest. Mount Everest on a perfectly clear day. A Western Screech Owl perched on a snowy branch. Showcasing the work of the world's foremost nature photographers, including Art Wolfe, Frans Lansing, and others, this full-color calendar captures the drama and stillpristine beauty that's imperative for us to preserve. All royalties from the sale of the Greenpeace calendar go to support the work of Greenpeace.

I have been buying this calendar for more than 10 years. It has the most fantastic photos of animals in their natural setting (some looking at the camera, warily) and nature scenes from the world.

A caption tells you where/what the photo is of. The days denote holidays for America, Canada and Australia.

This year (2008) there is a knockout photo of two red parrots, the one on the left looks older than the other, they look like they are in love (romantic or mother child).

No other calendar does it this well!!

I realize Greenpeace is a real lefty outfit, but the nature pictures are always outstanding and it is one of the few calendars where you can see the dates from all the way across the room. At least they are not promoting gay marriage--I hope.

The way we are so obsessed with our lives, we never care about the world.
See these pics daily and remember that there is more to life than being obsessed with USD.

I am appalled at the amount of packaging used to send a calendar, including the use of polyvynalchloride packing materials, when a simple paper envelope would have been sufficient. Shame on you!

I get a Greenpeace calendar every year. They are big and beautiful and it helps a very worthy cause.

Available only from Abrams, this calendar features classic photographs of William Wegman’s beloved Weimaraners.

I buy these Wegman calendars every year and I absolutely love them. They are so lifelike, and the poses are so amazing. I can't wait to turn the page each month to see the next photo.

Extraordinary Chickens 2008 Wall Calendar by: Stephen Green-Armitage publisher: Harry N. Abrams, Inc. released: 2007-08-01 ISBN: 0810988526 $8.52

A classic that keeps us intrigued. New for 2008, we get more of the bestselling extraordinary chickens!

This is a wonderful calendar; high quality photos, convenient format, interesting birds. The photos show (expectedly) how strange and bizarre some chicken breeds are, and (unexpectedly) how ornate and almost beautifully detailed their plumage can be. Perfect for the kitchen.

I buy a rooster/chicken calendar for my mom every Christmas. The photos are amazing - you never knew a chicken could look like this. I'm sure she'll be delighted.

I've loved my 2007 version of this calendar! I'll definitely order 2008. Only the fanciest, froofiest chickens need apply. Every month there is a main chicken, and a smaller sub-chicken (on the lower page). The proper breed names are given for each. This is handy for we laypersons who are not poultry scholars, but appreciate the plumage.

I keep this calendar at my office. At the beginning of each month my co-workers breathlessly await the unveiling of the newest chicken.

This calendar has some extraordinary pictures, many suitable for framing.
They give you plenty of room to write whatever appointments/info you may need on appropriate dates and looks great posted on the wall.
