On the cover, a bare chest and bits of bodies sketched in ragged lines of black and white. Inside, in full calor, we find Tim Presley. The dark force behind White Fence steps into the solo light with The WiNK. Lit up within the shades and the folding conflex of his many musical outfits are the musical sparks that make Tim Presley come alive - but The WiNK lives beyond all previous incarnations found in Drinks, Hair, White Fence and Darker My Love. Here, there's fewer filters than ever between you and Tim. Thus, his name up front; a wink towards ostensible (and ominous?) solosity, making light as it whistles through the layers that cage Tim's life. Tim's a man in a glass booth, grabbing at scraps of paper blown at his windscreen as if they were of the greatest value. They're actually of the ONLY value. And we grin in delight in his twist and tumult; in this process, he's assembling his tunes in essential fashion, rolling around in the dust of his Id-bowl, then reordering the scrambled head-events into a barrage of phrases and stages, flickering through disembodied and reembodied moments, held together by Tim's inviolable belief in the song progression underneath. The tension is unbreakable, a thin plastic slip, as he intones upon a maze of high wild mercury stings. When you tune in to The WiNK, it takes a couple minutes for you to hear a word. But then it takes only one line until "and then you die," uttered in a voice of mottled, throaty horror, as if ghosts that haven't yet shown themselves are advancing through walls. Working with the creative team of producer Cate Le Bon, drummer Stella Mozgawa, and engineer Samur Khouja, Tim's located the corners of a perfect square, with their creativity and truth crafting unique parts to function as songs within songs, giving the tunes doublejointed features that extend their original intentions. The Presley guitar hand has a powerful, yet quicksilver touch, with metallic brilliance ALWAYS, esp. In rhythm figurations, where it wrings chords out like panic signals, highlighting "Can You Blame," "Long Bow," "Underwater Rain," and "Clue" (to name a few), and a cover version of Willie "Loco" Alexander's "Kerouac" (nod and a wink!), where a smooth and steadfast lyric melody is supplanted by a throw of broken guitar and shards of keys. Throughout The WiNK, Tim's tone is thin and princely, connecting the dots sideways and backwards to align and make the image emerge. The WiNK is produced by Cate Le Bon, who does the impregnable work of bringing a Tim Presley solo statement into focus somehow from without, by leading Tim the long away around to make a portrait of him. Cate fully embodied the producer role, picking the songs for the album from a deep pile of demos, making arrangements for the chosen songs and steadfastly suggesting that the trusted team go off the beaten path in their execution. Alert to the scribble from which Tim's songs emerge in best home-recorded intimacy, Cate's studio production teases such details out without losing any of the cerebral splatter - deconstructing and rebuilding the songs with a tight-knit crew whose shared language lifts Tim's sound from the deep blue to create a different, stranger, authentic result. The pop pusher of our teenage century has slipped from behind the Fence to claim his name. It's about Tim!

40lb Lab Retriever Loves It!
Flavor Name: Bacon, Size: Medium
My 40lb Labrador Retriever loves her Nylabone. She DOES chew threw it and it's important to note that it IS plastic, so the product description mentions it should NOT be ingested. The bone eventually does get worn down and she does "bite, then lick" the bone, but she doesn't seem to ingest the entire bone over time and isn't interested in the small, ant-sized pieces of the bone she's carved off with her teeth. However, over time, the bone does shrink and the edges do get very sharp, so be wary of that. It's not going to hurt anyone, but if you step on it or if it brushes you the wrong way, it could scratch you. Other than that, it's a cheap toy that lasts about a month or so for my dog–a dog that chews up most plush toys pretty quickly.

Indestructible Chew for Aggressive Chewers!
Flavor Name: Bacon, Size: Medium
My pup loves her toys, and the Nylabone Power Chew Stick has lasted two months strong. The durable nylon, flavored with real bacon throughout, keeps her occupied for hours and massaging gums. The large size suits power chewers, with a loop for tossing games. No splintering or quick wear—it's held up to daily sessions. Peace of mind for pet parents; our shoes thank you! Pros: Extremely durable, dental benefits, engaging flavor Cons: None—built like a tank Would I buy again? Yes, rotating flavors for variety.

If Your Dog Can Rip The Hood Off Your Car--This Is The Dental Toy For Him/Her
I am always curious about buying the "number one best seller" that Amazon lists in any product category. And when it's an add-on item offered at a reasonable cost, I'm even more curious. From reading the reviews, it appears that some dog owners ordered this item and were disappointed in it for a number of reasons, primarily because the 'hardness' of the toy caused dental problems. Obviously no one wants to buy a dental toy that actually causes teeth problems. However, some small breed owners must not be aware that their particular breed is subject to dental issues regardless of what toys they chew. Just off the top of my head, this type of problem often occurs with Yorkies, Chihauhaus, and Chinese Cresteds. You can use virtually any dental care method in existence and still watch your Chinese Crested's teeth fall out. So small breeds shouldn't be given tough Nylabone toys like this Dinosaur model. If you watch any dog chew on this particular toy, you will quickly notice how small his/her teeth are in relation to the toy, and you will probably be surprised by the leverage and power he/she puts into each bite. They gnaw, they gnash, they continue to work at it until those tiny teeth lose the battle against the tough Nylabone. Comparing this to human teeth, everyone knows someone who fractures/cracks a tooth somehow. That's because our front "chicklet" teeth bite down on something hard, get broken from falling on your face, getting hit in the mouth, having teeth weakened by cavities, and from not seeing a dentist/hygienist on a regular basis--usually because we're afraid of a little pain. We're always looking for relatively tough dental toys for our 182 pound Cane Corso named Dante. He tears apart any toy we buy him, usually in a matter of minutes. But this particular Nylabone Dura Chew has survived for months now. If you look at the size of his teeth, length and thickness, you will see a dog with the teeth and jaw muscles strong enough to tear the hood off your car--which is exactly what he did to our Prius. So if your dog is capable of ripping hoods off cars, this treat should be good for your pet monster. Just keep an eye on the toy so that you can toss it before it breaks down and is swallowed.
