Product Description
Canus Goat's Milk Soaps are our original products. They are available in a fragranced as well as a fragrance-free version. A 5 ounce bar is triple-milled for hardness and is very long lasting. Fresh goat's milk has long been used as a skin moisturizer. Goat's milk contains capric and caprylic acids which reduce the alkalinity found in many skin care products. This reduced alkalinity results in a pH level closer to healthy human skin. We combine an all natural soap base with fresh goat's milk and our original fragrance of essential oils which will leave your skin feeling soft and rejuvenated.

Product Details
  • Case of four boxes, each containing three 5-ounce bars of soap (12 total bars)
  • Made with naturally homogenized farm fresh goat milk (not powdered)
  • Triple-milled soap is created to be hard and long lasting
  • Light, clean, mild fragrance is gentle and pleasant

Reviewer: EG, Blacksburg, VA
1. Moisturizes - We all get dry skin in the winter but my husband, being a man, refuses to use lotion on his itchy dry skin. Well this winter was brutal with the heat on constantly, and my husband didn't have dry skin using this soap. Impressive.

2. Smell - Since there's been so much conversation about the scent: This is not a lightly-scented soap; it has a distinct smell. I really love the smell for my husband but it's not so manly or strong that I can't use it.

3. Cleans - Yep, this is a soap, not a wimpy body wash. Gets the job done.

Reviewer: Dr. Cynthia Trosin, New Baltimore MI
This milk soap is very nicely milled and lasts a long time. The smell is fresh and this product isn't so tough on my skin as most soaps are. The price seems quite fair in comparison to some other triple-milled soaps I've purchased.
just what I was looking for

Reviewer: Sunny, Colorado
Living in an arid area, my skin was always dry. Since discovering this soap, my skin now feels soft and more moist. I love the light scent; it's very clean smelling. An added plus is I use this soap as shampoo for my very fine hair. It gives my hair more body and it stays clean longer so I don't have to shampoo as frequently.
Love them!!!

Reviewer: pen lover, Philippines
Just love them. Love the smell and the price. The best alternative to my expensive bath soap and still with no itchiness and redness.
Best soap ever
 
Review Date: February 1, 2010
Reviewer: S. Morgan, Massachusetts
I have sensitive (aging) skin that requires TLC. Originally purchased it five years ago for itchy dry skin during the winter. Would not use anything else now. My beauty treatment always starts with it and I swear my skin looks better at age 59 than it did at 49.
My favorite soap
 
Review Date: January 7, 2010
Reviewer: Kelly C., Pittsford, VT USA
I love this stuff! I even got my mother and mother-in-law hooked on it. It makes your skin so soft and smells great. It doesn't melt away quickly like some other natural soaps, it really lasts.
Nice Buy
 
Review Date: December 7, 2009
Reviewer: Rebecca White, Toledo, Oh USA
Great price for a quality product. Lathers beautifully and lasts a long time. You feel very clean and fresh. My only complaint -the smell, it does take some getting used to. It doesn't smell awful, it's just a little different and it takes some adjustment. Now that I have been using it for a while the smell is refreshing. I have been a Crabtree & Evelyn user for years and the goat's milk soap from that company has a softer scent with lavender. I highly reccommend the Canus line of products.

Product Description
It begins with a solemn funeral…for a car. By the end of Chris Paine's lively and informative documentary, the idea doesn't seem quite so strange. As narrator Martin Sheen notes, "They were quiet and fast, produced no exhaust and ran without gasoline." Paine proceeds to show how this unique vehicle came into being and why General Motors ended up reclaiming its once-prized creation less than a decade later. He begins 100 years ago with the original electric car. By the 1920s, the internal-combustion engine had rendered it obsolete. By the 1980s, however, car companies started exploring alternative energy sources, like solar power. This, in turn, led to the late, great battery-powered EV1. Throughout, Paine deftly translates hard science and complex politics, such as California's Zero-Emission Vehicle Mandate, into lay person's terms (director Alex Gibney, Oscar-nominated for Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room, served as consulting producer). And everyone gets the chance to have their say: engineers, politicians, protesters, and petroleum spokespeople--even celebrity drivers, like Peter Horton, Alexandra Paul, and a wild man beard-sporting Mel Gibson. But the most persuasive participant is former Saturn employee Chelsea Sexton. Promoting the benefits of the EV1 was more than a job to her, and she continues to lobby for more environmentally friendly options. Sexton provides the small ray of hope Paine's film so desperately needs. Who Killed the Electric Car? is, otherwise, a tremendously sobering experience. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

Writer/Director Chris Paine Blogs About Who Killed the Electric Car

When Who Killed the Electric Car premiered at the Sundance Film Festival (on the same weekend as An Inconvenient Truth), we wondered whether movie goers were ready for a new kind of 'action film'. Fortunately people jumped onboard and this seems even more true today.

We put this DVD together after the release of the film to include a dozen short scenes we couldn't quite fit into our story. My favorite is one with Stan and Iris Ovshinsky who developed the revolutionary battery technology that powered GM's electric car (and today's Prius). These two brilliant octogenarians took our small camera crew on a Willy Wonka style tour of their inventions including the world's largest thin film solar cell factory. As we stood under a football field size machine in Troy Michigan, I blustered "Is solar power back?" Stan exclaimed " What?! Solar never went away... What was back was backward thinking!" And as his machine cranked out miles of solar cells above us, we knew he was right.

I'm especially glad that the optimistic last scene of Who Killed the Electric Car has proven that we weren't just wishful thinkers when we finished our edit. The clips feature the first glimpse of the ultra fast Tesla electric sports prototype as well the Zenn neighborhood electric vehicle. Both cars are starting to roll off production lines today. And while the State of California (and some car companies) are still gambling on hydrogen fuel cells, plug-in cars are proving to be more environmentally efficient and popular. Early adopters deserve a lot of the credit. Oil companies and the internal combustion engine monopoly may have "killed" thousands of electric cars (EVs) in the 1990s, but EVs are coming back. (Stay tuned for next film...)

I hope you'll find our documentary takes you on a wild ride out of the 20th century and into the 21st. --Chris Paine, Writer/Director
