A carjacker lurking in a shopping mall parking lot. An abusive husband pounding on the door. A disgruntled employee brandishing a gun. These days, no one is safe from the specter of violence. But according to Gavin de Becker, everyone can feel safer, act safer, be safer -- if they learn how to listen to their own sixth sense about danger. De Becker has made a career of protecting people and predicting violent behavior. His firm handles security for many of Hollywood's top celebrities -- Madonna, Michael J. Fox, Geena Davis, Brooke Shields, and John Travolta, among others, according to press reports -- and his computerized risk-assessment system helps analyze threats to members of Congress and the Supreme Court. Now, in this unprecedented guide, de Becker shares his expertise with everyone. Covering all the dangerous situations people typically face -- street crime, domestic abuse, violence in the workplace -- de Becker provides real-life examples and offers specific advice on restraining orders, self-defense, and more. But the key to self-protection, he demonstrates, is learning how to trust -- and act on -- our own intuitions. For everyone who's ever felt threatened, this book is essential reading.Binding Type: Hardcover

Beautiful!!
I have had my eye on this watch for a long time. I used to wear a watch all the time and when my last watch broke, I never replaced it. I am very fussy about the fit of my watch. It can’t be too loose and sloppy, but I also don’t want it to be too tight either. This watch is dainty and beautiful! It has nice tiny little links so you can size it in small increments to fit just right!! I was nervous about sizing and adjusting it myself after reading the reviews, but my 10-year-old son helped me and between the two of us we were able to hold things and tap the pins out and back in place fairly easily. It only took us a few minutes and I had it fitting perfect!

Keeps great time
This is actually prettier than I thought it would be and I am tough on everything I wear. Never know what the day will entail, so when I clean it at the end of the day, it’s pretty shine comes right back.
I’m pleased with it.

Very hard to see the HANDS, but pretty
Very pretty and I didn't have to remove links. Hard to see the hands unless you angle it in the light. I'm not sure if I'll keep it. I'll give it some time ..lol and see how it goes before Amazon's 30 day policy.
